As scholars, when they can get together, their favorite thing is of course to comment on the court and the national politicians.

Although I am here to participate in the funeral today, everyone said something, drinking tea and sitting leisurely, while criticizing the current situation that they are unfamiliar with. It is really hard to get along with.

Zhou Juren was accompanying the guest. If it were in the past, he would have expressed some opinions with the crowd. However, today he lost his father, so he couldn't say anything. He just sat silently without saying a word.

Speaking of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, Zhao Juren in the county smiled coldly and said, "Why are scholars the highest? As the saying goes, everything is inferior to those who are high in study; are you right? "When the granaries are full, we know etiquette", "people regard food as the heavens, and the family has surplus grain, and they are not panic." Because of this, agriculture is the foundation of the country, and this farmer is naturally the second place. In addition, "If you want to do things well, you should first sharpen your tools." This work is also the foundation of the country. Although it is suspected of being a strange skill, it cannot be given up. Only this businessman says that it is mutual communication. To be honest, in the country, we eat grain planted in the ground and wear clothes woven by mulberry and hemp at home. Why do we need this mutual communication? Merchants only have profit in their eyes, but no faith in their hearts. Princes and Dukes are with them. He is a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, not a blessing for the country."

Someone said worriedly: "I heard that Mr. Li has a bad temperament and is also aggressive. It seems that even Mr. Fei is afraid of it."

At this time, someone said, "It's not a big deal to be good or bad. Mr. Li is at least a scholar. He is still with our scholars. What are the benefits for those who are with merchants?"

Everyone was talking nonsense. Zhou Juren ordered people to change tea for everyone, but he couldn't help it and said, "Yes, what I worry most now is that the prince has become the prime minister. By then, we may not have lived this way."

As he was talking, the door hurried in with a nervous look on his face and reported: "Master, Master... King... King... Prince... Prince is here, I'm here to pay tribute to the old master."

When he yelled, the entire hall suddenly disappeared.

Prince...Which prince?

How many princes can there be those who dare to call themselves princes in front of Master Zhou?

It won't be...

Everyone looked at each other, and Zhou Juren's face also became solemn, and he said randomly: "Which prince?"

The disciple hurriedly said, "It is the prince's tutor, Guanglu Dafu, Zuozhuguo, and the Grand Secretary of the Jinshen Palace."

Any official names that were selected from were something that the people present could never expect for their lifetime, and everyone was shocked.

What a prince!

Although the Juren was still slandering Wang Hua just now, he was overjoyed when he heard that Wang Hua had actually come.

You should know that the gentry in the countryside values ​​the most, so they have inherited poetry and books, called themselves a prominent family, or claimed to be a family that accumulates good deeds. The reputation of the family is more important than anything else.

Zhou Juren is a well-known person in Shunyi. Logically speaking, if his father passed away, the county master came to visit him. This is human nature. The prefect of Shuntian Prefecture? That is impossible. Not to mention coming, he will not even give a gift, not because of anything else, just because your Zhou family has not yet arrived and you do not have the qualification.

This kind of country gentry relies on reputation and land to gain a foothold in the local area. Therefore, usually the county gentry will say something like "the glory of the glory" when the county gentry comes. If there is any official gentry in Shuntian Prefecture, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a glorious family and a ancestor. But now... now... it has actually surpassed several levels and Wang Hua has come in person.

Can't this make Juren Zhou ecstatic?

This is a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, one of the prime ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and a figure of a very powerful minister. If his father had any knowledge in the spring, this alone would be enough to comfort the ancestors. This alone would be enough to make the Zhou family a storied figure in the county annals, and hundreds of years later, it would be enough to make the descendants of future generations use it to boast about it.

Juren Zhou had already forgotten what he had just said and said hurriedly: "Where is the person...?"

"We have arrived at the entrance of the village, and there is also the Duke of Zhenguo."

Duke Zhenguo?

Even this person has come?

Although everyone is not authentic about the Duke of Zhenguo behind their backs, no one knows that Duke of Zhenguo is also the top scholar and one of the few remaining dukes in the Ming Dynasty. His father is the Prince of Liaoyang. He is a real royal relative and one of the wealthy families in the Ming Dynasty.

Such a person has also come, can it not be touching?

It was so good now that two big Buddhas came to Zhoujiazhuang, Shunyi County.

Juren Zhou even trembled involuntarily with excitement. His mouth trembled and stammered: "It's so... so rude. Why don't you come to report the news early? How can you let the prince and the Duke of Zhenguo wait for a long time... confused, confused."

The other people in the hall couldn't sit still. They were either gentry, scholars and juren. Usually in Shunyi County, there were five or six people, but they knew that compared with these two great Buddhas, they were not as good as those of them.

Unexpectedly, I had the opportunity to meet Duke Zhenguo and Prince. Everyone stood up one after another. The Zhou family was about to welcome guests. Can everyone sit here safely? No, they all have to go and welcome them.

Although I have said many slanderous words just now, everyone has completely forgotten them. The private criticism is one thing, but it is another thing to be able to get close to the powerful and noble people.

Juren Zhou had already strode out, and said in his mouth: "Open the middle door, open the middle door."

After saying that, dozens of people went out together.

When the Zhou family heard the news, they came out of the backyard. Although they were all wearing mourning clothes, many people were overjoyed.

The door of Zhou's family was wide open, and Zhou Juren rushed to the entrance of the village with local celebrities.

I saw Wang Hua wearing a Confucian shirt and a simple robe scarf standing next to the crane cart. Ye Chunqiu, who was beside Wang Hua, looked very handsome.

Juren Zhou stepped forward and fell to the emperor first and said, "The student did not know that the prince and the Duke of Zhenguo came from afar and failed to welcome him. He was guilty of death."

Everyone behind him also bowed and bowed enthusiastically.

Wang Hua had a calm face, showed a solemn look, and helped Zhou Juren up and said, "Originally, you must be mourning."

The righteous move... is the word "Zhou Juren".

If you are alienated, you usually only call your name, but you can usually call your font size, which means intimacy.
