Main text Chapter 821: Master Qiu’s words can be used as a sign of power, and Meng Sheng’s ambition



"You kid, you also want to learn the tricks in that opera, don't you?"

Unexpectedly, the burly official seemed to have seen through Meng Sanyi's tricks and sneered without any pause in his movements. Over there, Meng's mother staggered and was also caught, her face turned pale with fright.

A cold light flashed in Meng Sanyi's eyes, and someone tied his arms behind his back, but he still said: "Don't think that I am deceiving you. I advise you to understand some things before acting..."

As soon as these words were said, combined with the calm expression on Meng Sanyi's face, several officers finally became a little worried. The sturdy officer even frowned and wanted to ask.

Jiang He, who was beside him, had already been watching his words. How could he let it go? He immediately shouted: "Don't listen to this boy's nonsense! He said that he seemed to have a great background, but he was just a miscellaneous person in the Hanlin Academy, and he actually wanted to deceive him. You guys!"

"Huh? Hanlin Academy?" After saying this, several officials were surprised and hesitated a lot. The strong official even glared at Jiang He and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? Don't you mean this family?" Are you a homeless person? How come you are related to the Hanlin Academy? Is he a registered official?"

They, these officials, dominate in front of ordinary civilians, but when it comes to other departments, they are not as good as before. And this is the capital, with central agencies everywhere, holding all kinds of power, even the servants and servants among them , and it’s not something they can offend easily.

The Hanlin Academy is relatively common among many institutions. It focuses on the literary world and does not seem to have much real power. However, many bachelors in it can go in and out of the palace and go directly to Tianting. In a place like this, even if you are just a handyman, It should not be underestimated. How can a few official officials be offended?

"Don't worry, Mr. Chai. This man is just a handyman in the Hanlin Academy. He has no registration at all and can't even stay there for a long time. He is just making ends meet." Jiang He still knew something about Meng Sanyi's background. Otherwise, it would not be framed on his head.

However, despite saying this, the official clearly still had doubts. After all, Jiang He dared to attack the Meng family. I won't be negligent here, but some things may not be as simple as people think.

You must know that what really makes people fearful about people who work in places like the Hanlin Academy is not that they are registered in the academy or have any rights, but whether they know anyone there and whether they can speak well. talk!

Think of this. The official didn't dare to take it lightly, so he stopped the others, and then asked Meng Sanyi: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Meng Sanyi said: "Please ask a few people to pack up those manuscripts. There is Zhang Mianwen in it, and it is not my handwriting. If anyone knows about it, you will throw it on the ground. There will probably be trouble."

"As expected, this person probably knew someone in the Hanlin Academy!" Upon hearing this. The sturdy officer's heart thumped, and his eyes fell sharply on several manuscripts on the ground.

"Pick it up and take a look to see if there's anything hidden inside."

After giving the order, a thin-looking official came forward and picked up the manuscript. He was the more literate person in the group.

After flipping through it, I recognized that it was an article written by Han Sheng from the previous dynasty. It seemed nothing special. However, as I was flipping through it, a piece of paper fell from it. After being caught by the person, he glanced at it and his expression suddenly changed. .

"What's wrong?" When Zhuangshuo Guancha saw him, he was also anxious. He walked forward and looked down. What came into his eyes was the word "knowledge and practice", followed by a few thirty words, most of which he didn't recognize, but Still feeling a strange power from the words, Shengsheng took his mind away for a few breaths, and then he came back to his senses, then turned around and asked, "What's so special about these two words? The article is not long, but it depends on yours It looks like something extraordinary."

The hand of the slightly learned official, who was holding the piece of paper, was shaking slightly, and he said in a trembling voice: "The study of knowledge and action is the theory of Confucian generals and great scholars. It is quite popular among the scholars in the capital now..."

"A Confucian general and a bachelor?" Zhuang Shuo's officer also changed his expression. "But the Confucian general and a bachelor who can't resist the barbarians and whose holy family is flourishing?"

"Besides that one, who else is there?" The thin officer almost nodded, "I heard that the bachelor was in the Hanlin Academy a few months ago. Could it be that he got acquainted with Meng Jialang at that time?"

"That's not right either," the strong official frowned, "It's impossible to be related to that big shot just because you wrote the word 'knowledge and practice', right?"

"Here..." The thin official became much calmer at this time, pointing to the paper and saying, "Here it says 'Encourage Three Movements', and the signature is 'Qingchang Compilation'. Qingchang County is the hometown of that bachelor. And editing was his job at the time!”

Calling others by their hometown is a popular way of addressing people in Dari. Some people also use it in writing, putting it together with their positions to refer to themselves. At this time, most of them have the meaning of giving guidance to future generations.

Zhuang Zhuang Guancha didn't know these things, but it didn't prevent him from understanding the meaning of the words.

"Is it really the work of that big shot?"

"There can be no mistake! If nothing else, the words on this paper alone are enough to drive those who admire calligraphy crazy!" As the thin official said, he showed a bit of covetous expression at first, but it was a pity that After looking at the words "three moves" above, I suppressed that thought again.

"That's it..." After hearing this, the strong officer felt cold sweat streaming down his head. He knew that he had done something wrong this time. He was able to write words of encouragement specifically for Meng Sanyi, which shows that the great scholar valued Meng Sanyi. .

By the way, there is still a big difference between a bachelor and a grand bachelor in Da Rui, but people among the people will certainly not be able to tell the difference so clearly.

Here, as soon as several officers realized their mistakes, they became bachelors. The strong officer directly ordered his release, and then saluted Meng Sanyi: "Brother Meng, this time I offended you because I am blind and blind to Mount Tai." , I hope you, sir, have a lot..."

Meng Sanyi regained his freedom. He shook his shoulders first to straighten out the blood that was not flowing smoothly due to being tied behind his back, and then said: "Where, I haven't asked a few famous names for advice."

What he said was simple, but it made many officials feel shuddered. They thought he wanted to settle accounts after the fall, and the strong official at the head wanted to apologize. However, Meng San moved his hands and said: "Don't get me wrong, Meng still has self-awareness. How much do I weigh? It's because of the bachelor's reputation that they don't embarrass me. To put it bluntly, I'm just trying to show off my strength, so what can I do? to ask.”

"I see," the burly official didn't believe it, but gritted his teeth and reported his name, "I, Liu Hu, will hold a banquet to apologize someday."

"Liu Chatou doesn't have to be like this," Meng San moved and shook his head, then turned his eyes, and his cold eyes fell on Jiang He, "Meng will not hinder you from doing errands. It is better to get the stolen goods as soon as possible."

"Brothers of the Meng family, don't worry." Liu Hu quickly expressed his stance, then cast a vicious look at Jiang He, "A scum like Jiang He cannot be let go!"

When he got here, he also figured out that after taking Jiang He, the things in his house could be slowly knocked out, and if he was embarrassed this time, there might be future troubles, and the hatred in his heart Not too small either.

"Don't! Don't! Master! Brother Meng! Xiaosheng...I..." Jiang He was so frightened that his color changed. His legs went weak and he was about to fall to the ground, but he was caught by two vicious officers. Knead him hard enough to make him scream.

"Please come back to those guys." Meng Sanyi looked at Jiang He coldly, and directly saw off the guests without going around.

"Today Meng Lang, my brother's family suffered a loss. I have to apologize. I can send it to you in the afternoon." Liu Hu looked around and saw the messy yard. He said this.

Meng Sanyi shook his head and said, "No need!" He still had plans in mind and didn't want to be criticized, so he shied away several times.

After a few people left, Meng Sanyi spat suddenly, helped Meng's mother into the house, then respectfully put away the piece of paper and put the manuscript back.

This character was left behind when Qiu Yan saw him practicing calligraphy in a corner of the backyard of the Hanlin Academy a few months ago. He kept it, but he didn't expect it to come in handy today.

"Thanks to Bachelor Qiu's words." Mother Meng recovered from her fright, "My son must remember this kindness. Your father was also caught by the officials back then, and what happened..." As she said that, she looked down. Tears, presumably because of the sadness.

But soon, she smiled again: "But fortunately, a few officials are quite polite to you and seem to want to make friends with you. I heard that connections are important in this capital. It would be a good thing if you can make friends with them." A blessing in disguise.”

When Meng Sanyi saw his mother's appearance and listened to her words, he felt sad in his heart, but he shook his head and said: "Taking advantage of the situation is not a long-term solution after all. Moreover, they have treated my mother and son like this in the past few days. This hatred will be remembered in their hearts." ! If you mess with him today, he will make them pay the price later! Their money is also obtained with evil intentions, and we can't accept it!"

As he spoke, an idea in his mind became more and more determined.

When his mother heard this, she became even more pleased.

Not far away, Fairy Lingxiu stopped, frowned, and said to herself: "These people can really turn their heads faster than turning the pages of a book."

Bai Shi's voice sounded from the bottom of his heart: "This is how things are in the world, how can it be right or wrong?"

………………

On the other side, Qiu Yan finished his morning affairs and sat in his seat with his eyes closed to meditate - at least in the eyes of other officials and staff.

Little did they know that Qiu Yan had already sorted out the causal lines in his heart.

"It seems that there must be five earliest disciples..."

Just as his thoughts were circulating, the sound of rapid footsteps came from outside. He saw Qi Jinchan holding a file and respectfully handed it to Qiu Yan, saying: "I agree, those two Hu chiefs The conversation and actions of the day have been transcribed, please take a look.”

"Oh?" Qiu Yan's eyes turned and landed on the file. His eyes changed slightly, and he saw a wisp of rich blood from above! (To be continued...)
