Yang Haiyan thought about it. In the original plot, who was the second prince's study partner? Oh, the second prince was found when he accompanied Han Zhen to Beijing. At that time, the second prince was already a young man. Why did he need to choose a study partner? Even if the emperor later hired a teacher to teach him, he didn't need to choose a study partner. Although he didn't need a study partner, he did have a personal guard.
And that person was the future Prince of Yonghe, who was still a young master now, the one who was kidnapped by the barbarian.
Yang Haiyan shook her head: "I can't guess. If I have to guess, it should be the young master of whose family in the capital?"
Qin Fang said: "The teacher said that two people were selected, one is Wei Ting's son, and the other is Young Master Ao."
Yang Haiyan was stunned when she heard Wei Ting's son, but it was normal to think about it. He is the son of the emperor's white moonlight, with half of the protagonist's halo. The emperor wanted to give him the best, and Wei Ting is one of the emperor's confidants, so it is normal to serialize them together. As for Young Master Ao, he still followed the original plot.
Qin Fang continued, "Teacher said that the emperor's choice of these two people was indeed very thoughtful, which made him very confused."
Hearing this, Yang Haiyan was puzzled: "Teacher is so smart, but he is also confused?" That was the most shrewd old fox Du Ke in the whole article. When he was alive, the Du family was the first family in the capital, and even the descendants had to be ranked behind.
Qin Fang said, "Teacher said that the Wei family is a royalist party, the emperor's confidant, and the one who followed the emperor to seize the throne. Now the emperor let Wei Ting's son become the second prince's companion. This doting thought is very obvious, and he can't guess what it means. Logically, if the emperor loves the prince, it shouldn't be like this."
Yang Haiyan thought, no wonder Du Ke is so suspicious, because in this way, isn't loving him equal to harming him? Putting him in such an obvious place. Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary people, they would think that the emperor was setting up a shield. But in fact, the emperor's favor for the second prince was undoubted. So why did the emperor do this? Was he deliberately making people suspicious? Should such a person with ulterior motives be cautious when dealing with the second prince?
Yang Haiyan did not understand the thoughts of the people in power, nor did she want to understand. She asked, "Then what do you think?"
Qin Fang shook his head: "I don't know either. Even the teacher can't figure it out, so I can't figure it out. Besides, I have never met the second prince, nor have I seen how the second prince and the emperor get along, so I can't judge the emperor's intentions. However, I remember what the teacher said, no matter what the situation, neutrality is the safest. So the disputes in the capital have nothing to do with us."
Yang Haiyan joked: "General Qin has this in his hands There is so much gunpowder. If the princes fight for power, they might come to persuade General Qin. "
Qin Fang thought she was naughty and scratched her nose: "That is something the emperor asked me to keep. Moreover, gunpowder is so important. Even if the emperor believes in the teacher, he can't trust me without reservation. So do you think there are no spies of the emperor in Yunxiang County?"
Yang Haiyan thought so too: "Even if there are, we don't know." Qin
Fang smiled. He didn't know secretly, but he knew it openly. The grooms who came with him last year with the blood-fighting precious horses, the emperor nominally asked them to learn to raise horses and let them enter the horse farm, but in fact, wasn't it to monitor him?
It's just that Qin Fang didn't have any other thoughts, so he was not afraid of anyone's surveillance.
In early July, Qin's mother came back and brought several people with her. First came Qin Erya and her husband, then Qin Daya and her family of three, then Aunt Qin San and Uncle Qin's second son, and Aunt Qin San's nephew and brother from her mother's side.
When Mother Qin went back to her hometown, Aunt Qin San asked her mother to take a letter back to her mother's family, in which she mentioned the marriage. Aunt Qin San's family of origin agreed, of course. Now that the Qin family is an official, how could they not be willing to marry into the Qin family? They didn't mention it before because they knew themselves well and knew that their family was not worthy of the Qin family. But if Aunt Qin San took the initiative to bring it up, they wouldn't mind.
In Yang Haiyan's impression, Aunt Qin San was a mean person, but after arriving at the General's Mansion, she was very honest. It is estimated that she had been severely taught a lesson by Mother Qin on the way here. As soon as they arrived at Jiangjun and had dinner, they were sent by Qin's mother to reunite with Qin San's uncle and his son.
As for Qin San's aunt's brother and nephew, after meeting Grandpa Qin and Grandpa Qin, they began to discuss the marriage with Qin San's aunt. Because Qin San's nephew also wanted to stay, if he was only engaged to Qin San, it would not look good to stay here, so after they discussed, they let the two get married first, and the bridal chamber would be left until Qin San's sixteenth year.
Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin knew that because Qin San's uncle had no son, he was more inferior and more thoughtful. So in Qin San's marriage, they all let the third room decide for themselves.
Half a month later, in the middle of July, fourteen-year-old Qin San and sixteen-year-old cousin Jin Dalin got married.
Watching them get married, Qin's mother thought of Qin Shoucheng's marriage. The girl she had her eyes on, Miss Li, was not a success, but she had little contact with the others, so she was not sure. She only saw Qin Erya marrying Qin Er's aunt's family, and Qin Sanya marrying Qin San's aunt's family, but her family did not have a suitable niece. However, from then on, Qin's mother paid more attention to Qin Shoucheng's affairs.
However, the Qin family now has something more important.
"County exam?" Qin Fang paused while teasing his son with the rattle, "You mean, the teacher of the academy proposed it?"
Qin Shouye said: "Yes, but... but I don't have this confidence in my heart, but the teacher said that my foundation in learning is still solid, so I can give it a try, even if... even if I don't pass the exam, it can be regarded as accumulating experience. Brother, do you think it's okay?" The fourteen-year-old boy has grown a lot taller than last year. However, compared with his peers, Qin Shouye's height is just average, but this is much better than before. If he had stayed in his hometown, he might not even be average. However, boys develop slowly, and Qin Shouye is only fourteen years old. As long as he keeps up with the acquired nutrition, he can still grow taller.
Qin Fang thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry. Your teacher is right. If we can pass the exam, we will be happy. If we fail, we will just accumulate experience. Just like when I, your elder brother, went to the battlefield to kill the enemy for the first time, I didn't dare to kill the enemy at first. Later, I dared to kill the enemy, but I was scared and couldn't sleep at night. Later, I killed more and more people and got used to it."
Yang Haiyan heard this and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Who would use killing as a metaphor? She was about to say something, but she heard Qin Shouye say, "I know, thank you, elder brother." Compared with the anxiety and nervousness just now, it is indeed much better now.
Well, Yang Haiyan admitted that she might have thought too much. Maybe men and women are different, or maybe Qin Fang is different in the hearts of his brothers, so as long as it is his comfort, it is useful to his brothers.
But... "You have to go back to your hometown for the county exam, so Shouye has to go back to his hometown too?" Yang Haiyan said, "It's already July now, and the county exam will be in February next year. I suggest Shouye prepare to leave in the next few days. He still has half a year to adapt and recuperate after returning to his hometown. Moreover, the county exam is presided over by the county grandfather, and it will also be the county grandfather who reviews the papers. So after returning to his hometown, you have to find out what the county grandfather likes and styles. This will always be beneficial when taking the exam."
Qin Fang said, "What you said makes sense. But if Shouye goes back for the county exam, his father and mother will definitely be worried. Then his father and mother will have to go back together, and I will send guards to escort him."
Yang Haiyan: "Let Doctor Li come with us. If something happens on the way or later, it will be more reassuring to have a doctor with us. I heard that the closer the exam is, the heavier the candidates' mood will be, and they will be more likely to get sick."
Qin Fang nodded and agreed, and said to Qin Shouye: "You go back. I will talk to my father and mother about this after dinner."
Qin Shouye: "Yes."
After his brother left, Qin Fang said to Yang Haiyan: "I still have to revise the book. A letter to the magistrate of Jintian County: Shouye is going back now, and he will arrive in his hometown in August. The county exam will be in February next year. If there is a good teacher to guide him in the six months in between, he will definitely benefit a lot. My father and mother have no experience in this area, so let them take the letter to visit the magistrate and ask him to recommend a teacher to teach Shouye privately. "
Yang Haiyan listened and thought about it. Doing so would undoubtedly make Qin Fang owe the magistrate a favor. But she couldn't refuse. After all, Qin Shouye was Qin Fang's biological brother. In Qin Fang's heart, he was naturally more important than this favor. But: "Husband, I have an idea."
Qin Fang asked: "What idea?"
Yang Haiyan: "What if we hire a teacher here to accompany Shouye back to his hometown?"
Qin Fang said: "It's not appropriate. The county examination is to test the foundation of the candidates, but the examination is actually about the topic. The teacher here doesn't know Jintian County, but if it is a teacher from Jintian County, he will at least have some understanding of the topic of the county examination. Therefore, we still need a teacher from Jintian County."
Yang Haiyan listened to Qin Fang's analysis and felt that it made sense: "Husband has considered it carefully."
After dinner, the couple took a walk to Liuxinyuan and mentioned Qin Shouye's affairs to the elders in the family. When they heard that Qin Shouye was going to end, the elders in the family were stunned. To be honest, they really didn't think about Qin Shouye, nor did they think about how successful Qin Shouye would be. Perhaps it was because Qin Fang was too popular, so everyone in the family was thinking about him, and naturally they didn't pay attention to others. Moreover,
they all came from the countryside, so they didn't care about studying, and Qin Shouye was always very well behaved, so... they ignored Qin Shouye over time.
Therefore, whenever Qin Shouye encountered something, he would tell his eldest brother first, not his parents.
