Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 305 Parents leave Beijing
"what?"

Li An was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly reacted.

According to the original timeline, when Yu Yanran appeared on the stage, her grandfather had already been conferred the title of Grand Master.

Perhaps Mr. Yu became an official because of this incident.

Thinking of this, Li An comforted him: "Sixth sister, don't worry, Mr. Yu is about to retire, now it's just a little earlier. With Mr. Yu's status, even if he annoys the officials, they won't do anything to him. ”

The status of civil servants in the Song Dynasty can be said to be the highest in history. Civil servants who committed crimes and were demoted were not exiled as many people thought.

Instead, he was demoted to serve as an official in some remote places.

In the Song Dynasty, civil servants would be sent into exile unless they participated in rebellion. Otherwise, they would be demoted to serve as officials in remote places at most, or they would be allowed to serve in official positions.

This is also the reason why Li An wanted to take the imperial examination and become an official.

Minglan was worried because she was afraid that the Yu family would encounter big changes and that her good sister Yu Yanran would be implicated.

But given Mr. Yu's status, no matter how angry the officials were, they couldn't do anything to him.

After listening to Li An's words, he calmed down.

Minglan is very smart, and Li An can figure it out even without telling her.

"what?"

Liu Waner was surprised: "Brother Ziqian, why do you want to go back so early?"

Li An found Mrs. Zhang and talked to her, then went to the Sheng family to talk to Mrs. Wang, and then took Desheng back.

The official family was furious and rebuked the ministers. In the end, they demoted one husband, two ministers, and four ministers.

In this case, the imperial power was naturally weakened.

Emperor Taizu decided to rule the world together with the scholar-bureaucrats, and the status of civil servants was unprecedentedly high.

These people can be said to be the most powerful group of people in official positions in the Song Dynasty. They jointly presented the memorial, which had the intention of forcing the palace.

The news spread and there was a lot of discussion.

"Okay, don't think so much. You guys are playing here, I'm going back first." Li An said.

And that husband is Mr. Yu.

This morning, Han Da Xiangong took the lead. All the Xianggongs in the DPRK, the six ministers and the chief officials of the three departments jointly submitted a report, imploring the officials to adopt the clan and determine the candidate for the crown prince.

However, because of worries about Yu Yanran and insufficient information, we only know that Mr. Yu was dismissed because he angered the officials, but we don't know the specific reasons.

"Oh, then go ahead, brother Ziqian." Liu Waner nodded.

"My parents are going back tomorrow, and I have to go back and spend time with them." Li An said.

Many students were talking about this matter, and all of them complained about the officials who had been demoted.

"Brother Ziqian is right. I was in a hurry and lost my sense of proportion."

When I returned to Bianjing, I asked Desheng to inquire about it, and he probably found out the reason why Mr. Yu resigned from the prime ministership.

The provincial examination had just ended, and a large number of students from Gyeonggi Road who were rushing to take the examination stayed in Bianjing.

Therefore, in some matters, even students who have not yet entered officialdom dare to criticize the government.

I wonder if the news from outside the palace reached the ears of the officials.

Not long ago, the officials issued an order to confer Mr. Yu the title of Grand Master and allow him to retire emeritus.

It was claimed that Mr. Yu was not demoted, but because he was old. He had submitted letters to resign many times before, but the officials never approved it.

Now, because of his many years of hard work and great achievements, he is allowed to retire.

As for the others, they were not so lucky. The older ones were granted emeritus status, while the younger ones were really demoted.

After hearing this, Li An shook his head secretly. From this incident, he felt more deeply the power of the Song Dynasty civil servants.

In anger, the officials demoted a group of people to scare the monkeys. After a while, they could no longer withstand the pressure and began to make amends.

In addition, one of the ministers who was demoted this time was the Minister of Rites. In the early days of the court, the officials appointed Hai Wenren to take over the post of Minister of Rites.

These major events in the DPRK are not something that a small person like Li An should worry about, and Li An doesn't pay much attention to them.

After returning home, Li An had dinner with his parents, went out with his parents, and bought some gifts for his grandparents.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Zhang and Liu Waner came to see Li An's parents off. Mrs. Zhang also apologized and said that Liu Xuewen couldn't get away and couldn't come to see him off.

Mrs. Liu and Li Nanlian said it was okay, and they were already flattered that Mrs. Zhang could come to see them off.

When he was about to go out, Sheng Changbai came with Minglan.

Sheng Changbai apologized to Li An's parents, saying that their parents had something to do and couldn't leave, so he came to see them off on their behalf.

From here, it can be seen that Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang don't care about the Li family.

Sheng Hong had an official position but didn't have time to say it. Mrs. Wang would definitely be able to spare some time.

But Li An didn't care about this. He didn't expect much help from the Sheng family anyway, and he didn't care about the contempt the Sheng Hong couple had for the Li family.

Mrs. Liu was very happy to see Minglan. She held her hand and talked non-stop. When they got into the carriage, she even held Minglan's hand and rode together in the carriage.

I don’t know what she said to Minglan. When they arrived at the dock, Minglan’s face was red when she got out of the car.

Li Nan did not charter a boat, but took a passenger ship to Yangzhou.

When we arrived at the dock, there was still some time before the ship sailed. Li An asked Desheng to find the crew of the passenger ship to help carry things.

Li Nan and Liu bought it, plus Li An bought it yesterday afternoon. When they arrived, they packed a large car.

For this reason, Mr. Liu often talked about it.

By the time everything is moved, there won’t be much time left before the vaccine is shipped.

Mrs. Liu reluctantly bid farewell to Mrs. Minglan and Mrs. Zhang, and boarded the boat with Li Nan.

Li Nan and Mr. Liu stood at the bow of the boat and gave Li An a lot of instructions. They didn't enter the cabin until the boatman urged them.

Li An stood at the pier, watching the ship go away, and suddenly felt lonely.

When I came to Bianjing, I was just a little bit reluctant to leave my parents in this life.

Now I find that the bond is getting deeper and deeper.

Li An didn't know whether he had integrated into this identity or whether he had adapted to this blood and family relationship.

Sheng Changbai patted Li An on the shoulder and said, "When you are named on the gold medal list next year, or you get married and settle down, you can take your parents by your side and fulfill your filial piety."

"Ah."

Li An came back to his senses and saw that the boat had disappeared on the river. He smiled and said, "Let's go back."

……

After sending his parents away, Li An's life returned to the same as before. He went to Sheng's house to study every day, and after returning home, he practiced calligraphy and read books.

After Wen Yanjing became a disciple, he stayed in Bianjing for a few days, then left Beijing and returned to his hometown.

He came to Bianjing to take the provincial examination. After passing the examination, he naturally had to go home to report the good news.

After Wen Yanjing left, there were still four people in Shengjia Academy.

Qi Heng finally convinced Princess Pingning to return to the Sheng family to study.

Mo Lan originally wanted to go back to school, but after learning that Qi Heng was back, she naturally wanted to come back even more.

But Sheng Hong didn't agree at all. After all, he knew that Princess Pingning asked Qi Heng to recognize Sanlan as his sister.

Grandma Kong, invited by Mrs. Sheng, also came to Sheng's house a few days after the polo match and began to teach Sanlan etiquette and rules.

Learning the rules is in the backyard, but with Liu Waner here, Li An also knows some things.

Grandma Kong is strict and selfless.

Both Ru Lan and Liu Waner were playful and didn't like restraint. They just had the idea of ​​dawdling around and were often scolded.

Although Minglan didn't like these, she still had the patience to learn them.

The most serious one is Mo Lan, who pesters Grandma Kong with various questions every day.

This made Ru Lan very unhappy, and all kinds of small frictions continued.

Such days passed quickly, and it was the end of April in the blink of an eye.
