Chapter 296 Little Wanli is a chatterbox
Because of the rain yesterday.
There was a thick and wet fog outside Beijing early in the morning.
The weeping willows by the canal have grown lush and flourishing, with each piece of paper hung with lush green branches and leaves.
The willow branches are full of juice at this time.
Just break off one and rub it slightly, and you can pull out the branches inside, leaving only an empty willow branch bark.
Willow branches?
Yan Shaoting suddenly thought of anti-inflammatory drugs, but it was just a thought.
These things cannot be realized on a large scale based on Changping's current industrial level.
But soap, glass and the like are possible.
We can discuss this later and make this new business with Bai Fugui.
After all, they are people from the old European countries.
The streets are still full of feces, and people are even willing to poop in the street.
What they needed most was something like soap to clean their bodies, and they also needed glass, a precious thing from the far East.
But this business cannot be done only in Changping.
Now that the Yan family has become a noble family in the Ming Dynasty, perhaps they can bring the inner court and Zhu Xizhong and other families into doing this business together.
Thinking about it.
Yan Hu and the coachman drove the carriage to the Tonghui River Wharf.
Xiao Junpeng, the minor official who originally worked at the dock, had been transferred to the Changping Public Security Division with a handwritten letter from Yan Shaoting, and was responsible for welcoming and seeing off guests at government offices such as Shuntian Prefecture.
This kind of thing is very familiar to Xiao Junpeng.
Other people in the Public Security Department have never been interested in this.
In a sense, Xiao Junpeng, who always appears three inches shorter than others, can also be considered a special talent.
But Xiao Junpeng is no longer at Tonghui River Wharf.
But when the new clerks saw the flag of the Yan Mansion, they hurried forward and offered to serve.
Now everyone knows that Xiao Junpeng, who was originally at the dock, was originally a student of Yan Shidu... That's not right!
Now it's time to call Mr. Yan!
It was because Xiao Junpeng caught the eye of Yan Binke that he became so successful.
Everyone wants this kind of good thing that falls from the sky to happen to them.
However, Yan Shaoting was no longer interested in discovering grassroots talents in the Ming Dynasty.
Just waiting by the dock.
Soon, several carriages came along the official road from the direction of Beijing.
Yan Shaoting immediately led Yan Hu forward.
And on the opposite side.
The coachman also turned around and looked into the carriage.
"Master, it's guest Yan who is waiting for us at the dock."
In the carriage, Paine glanced at his son who looked idiotic beside him, sighed softly, and then looked outside with a puzzled look.
Yan Shaoting was actually waiting at the dock earlier than him?
The carriage slowly stopped.
Paine, the former Minister of Justice, who had been stripped of his official position and all his achievements, stepped out of the carriage.
Looking at Paine who was walking over.
Yan Shaoting was slightly stunned.
In just one night, Paine seemed to have aged several dozen years.
There were actually a lot of white hairs vaguely visible on the head.
He stepped forward and bowed: "Junior greets Mr. Pan."
Even Yan Shaoting bowed in person.
Paine still felt a little surprised.
He looked around, then turned back to look at the road he came from.
On the entire Tonghui River Wharf, it seemed that Yan Shaoting was the only one who came to see him off.
Paine was filled with emotion.
He couldn't help but sigh: "Thank you for your concern. My old man and my family are returning home today, and you actually came to see me off in person."
Yan Shaoting smiled and said, "After all, Mr. Pan and I were both officials in the court in the past and we knew each other. Now that Mr. Pan is returning home with his family, it is only right for me to come out and see him off. I wish him a safe journey home."
It turned out that Yan Shaoting was indeed here to see him off.
A smile appeared on Paine's face.
But he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
As a former rival in the court, Yan Shaoting was able to come and send him back home, but some people...
Not to mention.
Pan En shook his head and looked at Yan Shaoting with a twinkling gaze: "In fact, it is reasonable for me, Pan Ziren, to lose this time. I also know that Runwu must have been involved in this matter."
Yan Shaoting immediately looked embarrassed: "Mr. Pan..."
Pan En waved his hand and shook his head, saying, "But those are just fights in the court. The court is a life-and-death struggle. It is understandable that Runwu wants to overthrow me. If I have the chance, I will definitely overthrow Runwu and your Yan family."
Finish this sentence.
Paine actually felt a little relieved.
After leaving Wanshou Palace and Xiyuan yesterday, he had thought through many things this time.
Although I was a little angry, I knew it was inevitable.
And today, at the Tonghui River Wharf, Yan Shaoting was the only one who came in person to see us off.
The last bit of resentment in his heart had been swept away.
Just as he said himself.
The struggle in the court is understandable and unavoidable.
But outside the court.
But it is a place where one's character and personality can be seen.
Yan Shaoting wanted to say something.
But Paine laughed twice and said, "Actually, I have to admire Runwu's wisdom, strategy and methods. Very good! I haven't seen such a talent as Runwu for a long time! Perhaps, this is also a blessing for my Ming Dynasty."
Now Paine is no longer an official and can speak more calmly.
He continued, "I can tell you frankly that although I know that you must have a share of responsibility for the Pan family's fate, I and the Pan family will never cause trouble for you and the Yan family in the future. Everything has disappeared since I was dismissed yesterday."
That's right.
He has looked away.
But have you really let it go?
Yan Shaoting could only bow and say, "Mr. Pan is very knowledgeable and I will learn from you."
Pan En shook his head and said, "Forget about that. Today, Runwu came to see me off. I will keep it in mind. I also have a few words of advice before we part. If Runwu believes it, he must not forget it in the future."
Yan Shaoting immediately raised his head and pretended to listen attentively.
Pan En said quietly, "As for the current political situation, Runwu can see it more clearly than I can. Although Lord Xu is the current rival of the Yan family, the future of the Yan family and Runwu are all in the hands of the emperor, but not everything can be in the hands of the emperor."
After saying that.
Paine also clasped his hands and bowed in return.
When he turned and walked to the carriage.
He turned and looked at Yan Shaoting.
Paine smiled and said, "That's all I have to say. I hope Runwu will take care of himself in Beijing. I only hope to hear about Runwu's continued success in the countryside."
Yan Shaoting also laughed.
He took Yan Hu and retreated to the side of the road.
"Minister Pan..."
"Bon Voyage."
Paine smiled and waved, then walked onto the carriage and entered the compartment.
The carriage passed in front of Yan Shaoting.
With the wind, the curtains were blown open, revealing Paine and his son inside.
Pan Yunduan's face was dull, his eyes were bright, and he opened his mouth and shouted, "Dad! Dad! This big brother is so handsome!"
Paine turned and looked out the window.
It was a tall young man named Yan standing by the official road. …
"father!"
"Daddy!"
"father……"
"Aba Aba... Dad... Aba Aba..."
In my ears is the tender and seemingly never-ending voice of a child.
Yan Shaoting frowned slightly and looked with embarrassment at Zhu Yijun, the future Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty and the current Prince Yu's Mansion, who was in his arms.
Zhu Zaigui also looked embarrassed.
He looked at Yan Shaoting and said with a stiff face, "This kid now only knows how to call everyone daddy and keeps talking incessantly, making it hard for anyone to understand what he is saying..."
last year.
His son only knew how to cry and laugh, which was so adorable to Zhu Zaigui.
But this year, since he learned to speak, he has been chattering all day long, which is very annoying.
Concubine Li also smiled and said, "Guest Yan is the prince's teacher. When the prince sees the teacher, he must have a lot to say."
This is mentioning the relationship between Yan Shaoting and Prince Yu's Mansion.
Now, the ceremony of conferring the title of Earl of Changping on Yan Song has been completed by the reluctant Minister of Rites Yan Ne and his officials from the Ministry of Rites.
There was nothing to fault about the ceremony.
Yan Ne can also be regarded as a well-deserved Minister of Rites.
above the hall.
There are also more different opinions about the Yan family, who will live and die with the country from now on.
As the biological mother of the prince of Prince Yu's Mansion, Concubine Li was naturally happy to see Yan Shaoting and Prince Yu's Mansion become closer.
This will be a help to her son in the future.
after all.
No one knows whether Prince Yu will have other children.
Power struggle within the royal family.
The fights are often more fierce than those between officials in the court.
Lu Wenyan was accompanying Prince Yu's family on the side, and said with a smile: "Recently, the textile factory is trying to grow mulberry trees and raise silkworms. I wonder if the princess is interested. I will accompany the princess to take a look there?"
Ever since I was granted the imperial edict.
Lu Wenyan was already very familiar with receiving the nobles in Beijing.
As long as you come to Changping.
The first thing is to take them to a textile factory for an experience.
Then go up the mountain to see the scenery.
Finally, eat some Changping delicacies.
then.
Lu Wenyan, the granddaughter-in-law of the Prime Minister, has become the role model that all unmarried girls in Beijing must learn from.
Today is the first day that Prince Yu Zhu Zaigui takes office as the president of Changping Academy.
Changping was naturally prepared early on.
The people of Changping are now also familiar with how to receive the dignitaries from the capital.
Don't pay any attention to these nobles in the capital.
This is what the people of Changping need to do.
When Concubine Li heard Lu Wenyan's invitation, she was curious about Changping, who had heard about it so many times that her ears were callused, so she immediately agreed.
The two women left in a very cool manner under the gaze of two men and... another man who had not grown up.
Yan Shaoting and Zhu Zaigui looked at each other.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Zhu Yijun, who was held in Yan Shaoting's arms, stared with his round eyes, his two little hands clenched into fists, and his whole body was filled with the fragrance of milk.
"……father!"
"Aba Aba..."
It starts again!
This little chatterbox has started again!
Yan Shaoting was overwhelmed for a moment.
But then look at this little chatterbox's father.
His Royal Highness Prince Yu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Zaigui, the principal of Changping Academy under the jurisdiction of the Changping Public Security Bureau.
He actually ran towards the academy on his own.
He paid no attention to his talkative son.
Yan Shaoting could only stare helplessly at the chatterbox Zhu Yijun who was also staring at him.
Zhu Yijun blinked.
The world of children is pure.
Zhu Yijun, who was already able to make out "Ababa", felt that the good-looking person in front of him was very friendly.
"father!"
"Daddy, Daddy!"
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah……"
Yan Shaoting was immediately confused.
This child is hopeless.
He could only recite the meditation mantra in his heart and take a step forward to catch up with Prince Yu Zhu Zaigui who had already entered the academy.
The academy had already been prepared.
The three old masters, Nie Bao, Wang Ji and Qian Dehong, had been waiting for a long time with the gentlemen invited by Xu Wei.
I saw Prince Yu coming in.
Everyone immediately bowed and saluted.
"I have met the headmaster."
This is the attitude and statement of the academy.
As long as Prince Yu entered Changping, he would no longer be the Prince Yu of the Ming Dynasty, but only the president of the academy in Changping.
Although Zhu Zaigui was a little surprised by this, he was very happy in his heart.
This is exactly what I want!
He was just the principal of Changping Academy, not the Prince Yu who people had been calling him for more than 20 years.
Xu Wei, who was standing nearby, felt relieved when he saw Zhu Zaigui's smile grow wider.
Everyone also gathered together.
The young Zhu Shanchang immediately began to familiarize himself with his future working environment and the work tasks he would need to undertake.
It was also at this time.
Yan Shaoting, who was a chatterbox, was stopped by Lu Yi who suddenly appeared in front of him.
A little chatterbox: "Dad!"
Lu Yi’s eyes immediately widened, and he looked at his brother-in-law in shock and hesitation.
Yan Shaoting quickly looked around, then lowered his voice and glared at his brother-in-law: "This child can only shout this one word now."
Lu Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he said, "Hai Rui is in trouble."
Yan Shaoting's heart immediately moved, and hesitantly asked: "What trouble did he encounter?"
Lu Yi whispered, "It's still the matter from before Huizhou Prefecture. But if it doesn't go well this time, the Hai Gang Peak that my brother-in-law has set his sights on may be broken because of its excessive rigidity."
Yan Shaoting's eyes darkened.
I also felt a little more worried.
Something unexpected happened to Hai Rui in Huizhou Prefecture.
