Dawei Fanghua

Chapter 66

He had already returned home, but now he was sent back to the palace, so Qin Liang decided to stay one more day.

After breakfast, he took Wang Lingjun to visit his parents-in-law. It was still the same. After the etiquette and formal conversation, Mrs. Xue took Wang Lingjun to talk; Wang Guang accompanied Qin Liang.

Today, Wang Guang did not want to take Qin Liang to stroll around the courtyard. Instead, he went straight to the courtyard in front of Wang Lingjun's residence, saying that he wanted to take Qin Liang to enjoy singing and dancing.The two walked up a corridor, and the door in front could be seen.

Qin Liang no longer hesitated, seized the opportunity to be alone, and said directly: "Uncle, the fifth rank officer that the general wants to give me is the school order."

Wang Guang, who was very interested, immediately stood where he was and turned around: "What is the school order?"

Qin Liang said calmly: "In the past, the school affairs office only had school affairs. The newly created official position of the general is fifth rank. I want my servant to be in charge of the school affairs office."

Wang Guang stretched out his hand to touch the beard on his chin, his face became solemn, and he pondered for a moment and said: "The reputation of the school affairs office is very bad. It offends people and is hated by all the noble families. If Zhong Mingruo takes charge of the school affairs office, he will not be able to communicate with those relatives and friends in the future. It’s hard to talk when we meet.”

"That was before." Qin Liang also stood next to him and said nicely, "I ask my uncle to think about it, how could those low-ranking school officials in the past offend the nobles without getting into trouble? It was just relying on the authority of the emperor. Now In this situation, even if they want to offend, they don’t have the power.”

Wang Guang nodded slightly when he heard this and said: "It seems to make sense. But what will the Tutor's Mansion, especially the General's Mansion, not ask for?"

Qin Liang said: "It's different. Taifu Sima himself is a nobleman. The general also has to try his best to win over the noblemen, and he can't give too many guarantees to the school officials. We don't dare to go too far for the time being."

He paused for a moment, and then persuaded step by step: "Besides, it is natural for a person with a civil servant background to do poorly in that kind of place.

This is what the servant thinks. If you accept the school order, you will be a fifth-rank official.If the general cannot be satisfied, as long as he doesn't do anything excessive, the worst possible outcome is that the servant will be transferred from the school affairs office and change his official position to the fifth rank.If you don't accept the school order, and take into account the merits of the Battle of Shaopi and the grade given by the Zhongzheng Officer, it is estimated that the servant will not be able to reach the fifth grade. "

Qin Liang felt a little guilty in front of Wang Guang today and spoke very politely.Wang Guang also seemed to still feel a little guilty about Qin Liang.The two of them seemed to be trying to fight a wolf with a straw, and both sides were afraid.

Wang Guang walked slowly, lowering his head and thinking deeply. Qin Liang also walked slowly with him.They all looked at the brick floor of the cloister, as if there was money on the ground.

"After all, I am just Zhong Ming's wife and father. You must consider this matter carefully." Wang Guang finally said.

Qin Liang said: "Since my uncle is an in-law, whatever I do, I will first and carefully consider the impact on the reputation of the Wang family. My uncle thinks about my performance in Huainan, why not trust me again? Let me do it for a while first, and then see. When you really can’t stand it anymore, you can intervene again.”

At this point, Wang Guang finally nodded vigorously and said: "I still believe in Zhong Ming's thoughts. Then I will follow you for the time being?"

Qin Liang suddenly smiled.I've been feeling a little heavy since last night, but it's finally been counteracted by something good.

The two of them continued walking forward and reached another courtyard, where the sound of silk and bamboo could be heard faintly.Following the sound of music, they came to a large pavilion, where they saw a group of Kabuki and dancers practicing.

As expected, he was from a wealthy family, and his family had so many tricksters.The singing and dancing Qin Liang had seen in ancient times was limited to that official theater.

Because Wang Guang nodded to business, Qin Liang just breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, he suddenly saw the Bai family and Wang Xuanji, and the breath he let out suddenly came back.Seeing Wang Xuanji, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Bai Shi and Wang Xuanji hurriedly walked out.Mr. Bai was very attentive and had a smile on his face.In total, the Bai family was still Wang Guang's elder, but the status of a concubine mainly depended on her mother's family background. The Bai family was a concubine with a relatively humble background, and she still had no status in front of Wang Guang.In terms of the whole family, Wang Xuanji's status should be higher than that of the Bai family. At least Wang Xuanji's surname is Wang.

"This is my virtuous disciple Qin Zhongming. You should have met him in the ancestral temple." Wang Guang pointed to Qin Liang, who was walking side by side. My father and brothers all praised me. Now the general is about to make Zhong Ming a fifth-rank official. Before Zhong Ming reaches the age of twenty, he will be promoted from an assistant to the chief official of the government. Let's not be negligent."

Qin Liang responded while looking at Wang Xuanji with his peripheral vision, "My uncle is really too complimentary. We are one family, not to mention two families."

"Haha, yes! Zhong Ming's words make sense." Wang Guang said with a smile.

Wang Xuanji is a teenage girl with much better emotional control than Bai.There was almost no clue on Wang Xuanji's face. She acted very naturally and did not look at Qin Liang specifically.But Bai's face was already red, and her expression was very complicated.

Sure enough, Wang Guang immediately said in surprise: "When has Zhong Ming been here and seen his aunt?"

Qin Liang calmed down slowly, and sure enough, Bai shook his head first and said: "No, I haven't seen him come... I, I feel a little unwell and lost my temper." Now she had tricked herself, and Wang Guang immediately said: "Aunt Why don't you go back and take a rest first?"

Bai said: "No need, I'm fine."

Wang Guang advised kindly, "Go quickly, I'm here."

Bai had no choice but to bow and leave, "I'll come back as soon as I go." Qin Liang and Wang Guang both returned the gift.She walked to the middle of the pavilion and scolded: "You don't even have eyesight! Why don't you go get something to prepare a banquet and let Gong Yuan stand?"

Wang Guang said at this time: "Wang Xuanji. My half-sister, Mrs. Bai just now is Xuanji's mother."

After hearing this, Qin Liang and Wang Xuanji pretended not to know each other and bowed face to face.Today, Wang Xuanji did not wear a large and dark robe like before. Instead, she wore a light-colored dress that was thrifty at the top and full at the bottom. Although the cuffs of the dress were wide, the body was cut to fit. This was completely different from the dressing style of the Han Dynasty.Her home blouse was not as loose as her robe. When she bent down to salute, many wrinkles appeared in the fabric of her blouse, as if the blouse did not fit and was too small.

Although there was no expression on her face, the charm hidden in her beautiful and unruly phoenix eyes was still faintly detectable.An oval face is very beautiful, and the snow-white skin looks as smooth and delicate as satin during the day.

Qin Liang didn't dare to look more, so he could only take a glance.He had mixed feelings in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed. Yesterday, he was just like swallowing a jujube, or like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit. He took the blame, but he was confused during it.

When he was performing the ceremony, he finally called out a word.Wang Xuanji also said as she stood up slowly: "Nice to meet Zhongming."

When Qin Liang heard it, he felt that Wang Xuanji's voice was more melodious, while Lingjun's voice was clear, which was indeed different.It's just that Qin Liang drank too much yesterday and his reaction was too slow. Moreover, the one or two sentences she said were short, low and soft, so he didn't immediately notice the difference.However, Qin Liang remembered the subsequent times when he cried a lot, and he suddenly realized that it was because he was already dizzy at that time. He recalled carefully and it seemed that he was not crying.

He knew that the random thoughts in his mind at this time were wrong, but he couldn't control himself for some reason. People can only control their reason and can hardly control their feelings. The voice seemed to be lingering in his ears.Qin Liang secretly took a deep breath, fearing that he would be like Bai and give Wang Guang clues.

Fortunately, Wang Guang was talking to a singer at this time. He turned around and said, "I'll go over and teach her. Zhong Ming will wait a moment and ask them to move over to the table and sit down."

"Uncle, please feel free to do so." Qin Liang pretended to be calm and said, "Please watch them dance."

As soon as Wang Guang left, Qin Liang and Wang Xuanji were left alone here.The two stood side by side, looking at the middle of the pavilion. Maybe they didn't look at the dancers. Anyway, Qin Liang had no idea what those dancers were doing.

But this was a rare opportunity to say a few words alone. Qin Liang did not dare to delay, so he whispered: "I feel extremely guilty, I..."

Wang Xuanji said nothing, still looking blankly at the middle of the pavilion.

Qin Liang thought for a while and then said: "I don't know how to make up for it, but if I can think of a way, I am willing to do anything for you. I am sincere and will never be hypocritical."

His guilt and discomfort were sincere, so he lost control of his emotions a little, and he thought of something nice to say, hoping to make Wang Xuanji feel better.But it seems useless to just say nice things. How can others get married in the future?

The harm to people is so great, but Qin Liang can't give him anything now, and he really doesn't have any good ideas.

Still not hearing a response, Qin Liang finally couldn't help but turned around and took a quick look, only to see a line of clear tears slipping down Wang Xuanji's beautiful cheeks, which made people feel distressed.He was startled again and thought to himself, you were so calm just now, don't cry in sadness in public right now!
But Wang Xuanji immediately wiped her cheek with her sleeve.

There was no response for a long time. When Qin Liang looked at her again, he saw her face was blank, as if she was in a Buddhist trance. Fortunately, she could no longer see any emotions or expressions.

Don't be so mad, this girl.Qin Liang felt a little panicked.

I don't know how long it took, but the sound of playing the piano suddenly came to mind, and Wang Xuanji finally woke up.Her expression changed, she bit her teeth, and said solemnly: "I have never blamed you, from beginning to end."

Before Qin Liang recovered, several women came over one after another carrying things and began to spread mats and place wooden cases beside them.

Not long after, Wang Guang also came back, and then invited Qin Liang and Wang Xuanji to sit down.Wang Guang clapped his hands twice, and suddenly the light sound of the piano sounded again, like a stream flowing between steep rocks.The posing dancers also danced with it, their waists swaying and their long sleeves drifting quickly with the flow.

Qin Liang could hardly see the good or bad. With his background, although he could read, practice swordsmanship, and even learn some music, he could not support his family like a wealthy family.
