The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1700 Present Disease
Back home, Xuan Shijing asked the servants to pack up their things first, and after lunch at noon, they could immediately set off and go back to Zhuangzi.

"Husband, why do you have to go back to Zhuangzi again this time?" Qin Bingyue asked puzzled, it only took a few days to return to Chang'an, and now that the prince is sitting in court, shouldn't her husband be busy?

"It's a long story, but it's not a bad thing. I just go back to Zhuangzi and take care of our Zhuangzi." Xuan Shijing smiled and said, "Let's go and pack things for An An, specifically, after dinner , let’s go back and talk to you on the way.”

Seeing what her husband said, Qin Bingyue stopped asking, nodded, and took An An upstairs to pack her things.

Regarding the plan between Xuan Shijing and Li Chengqian, Xuan Shijing did not intend to tell others that although Qin Bingyue is not someone else, she doesn't know much about political affairs, so there is no need to tell her and let her worry about it.When he returned to Zhuangzi, as long as he handed over the students of the academy, this was the most important part of the plan.

At least the students trained must be qualified.

Therefore, Xuan Shijing had to work harder at the Faculty of Arts.

As for the fact that he was demoted, the family would have to know about it sooner or later anyway, and it would save a lot of trouble for him to explain it to the family himself.

In the afternoon of that day, Xuan Shijing took Qin Bingyue and An An back to Zhuangzi in Dongshan County in a carriage. During dinner at night, he told his family members about his demotion.

"How could the prince be like this!" Hearing that her husband was demoted, Jin Yang was the most annoyed.

Didn't he just beat Dou Xiaoguo in the street?That's why Dou Xiaoguo bullied their family's An'an first, and he didn't allow his family to take revenge?What kind of reasoning is this?
Even if it was a punishment, it would be nothing more than a fine and a fine for the salary, but it was downgraded by two ranks. A good third-rank official became a fourth-rank official.

"Don't worry about getting angry, didn't I say that? This is not a bad thing." Xuan Shijing said.

"Demotion because of beating someone, how can this not be considered a bad thing?" Jin Yang frowned and asked, "This matter is related to your husband's reputation."

"Where the reputation is not, this matter is raging in Chang'an City, and there must be an explanation to the civil and military officials. Moreover, the common people have their own conclusions about the matter, and it has no effect on reputation. Regarding this matter, I am temporarily freed from Chang'an City, right?" Xuan Shijing laughed.

"Husband, why is your heart so big?" Jin Yang said helplessly.

Xuan Shijing was also crying in his heart. He and Li Chengqian couldn't talk about what he discussed with Li Chengqian, let alone say it in front of everyone while eating, but at night, he could tell Jinyang a thing or two. , so that there is no one around me who understands me.

Although Jinyang has always been on Zhuangzi, as a princess, especially the first princess who can still catch the emperor's eyes, she still has great energy. Maybe Jinyang can be used to help in this matter.

After finally persuading Jin Yang to calm down, otherwise she would probably go to Chang'an City to find her prince brother and have a good reasoning.

Regarding Xuan Shijing's demotion, Wang's reaction was very indifferent. The ups and downs of the officialdom are very common things, at least there is no problem with the Xuan family now, and Xuan Shijing is because of beating talents Those who are demoted will always be promoted back anyway, so there is no need to worry.

Whether her son is capable or not, she knows in her heart.

Therefore, Mrs. Wang has become the calmest person. The family has a lot of wealth, has the aspirations of Master Zhuangzi, and has an academy.

An'an finished dinner steadily, and then Xuan Shijing and Jin Yang went back to the room.

The child in the nanny's house can also allow Jinyang to rest well. Ever since the child was born and he took care of the child himself, Jinyang has also been visibly haggard to the naked eye, so he simply let the nanny take the child for a while , I can’t get a good night’s sleep all night long, and it’s exhausting. I have to take care of such a big family during the day, and I have to coax the children at night, and I’m physically and mentally exhausted.

At night, Xuan Shijing hugged Jinyang, lying on the bed, and told Jinyang about the discussion with Li Chengqian in Xuanzheng Palace.

"The power of the aristocratic family really needs to be restrained. The Dou family, the Zheng family, and the other five families have also been mentioned by my father. I think back then, when the emperor's grandfather was still there, among the five surnames and seven families, The Dou family is the most powerful. Later, when the father succeeded to the throne, the Dou family is not as good as before, but they have not declined, but they are much more honest, but compared to the Dou family, the Zheng family is the most difficult." Jin Yang Said: "The Dou family is closer to the royal family, and the in-laws are also closely connected, but the Zheng family is different. Although the royal family also has princesses who marry into the Zheng family, their position in the Zheng family has never been so high. Previously, the Zheng family had repeatedly rejected the marriage that the father pointed out to the Zheng family."

Xuan Shijing knew that the five surnames and seven sects were so powerful that they could refuse the princess's marriage, but today he learned from Jin Yang that this was experienced by His Majesty Li Er himself, and the feeling is a little different.

"The foundation of the Zheng family goes back hundreds of years, and the foundation is huge. Now in the entire Tang Dynasty, there are members of the Zheng family in almost all places. Dealing with the Zheng family is difficult," Jin Yang said.

"Then what about the plan I discussed with your brother?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"It can alleviate the current situation, but if you want to do it thoroughly, you still have to look at the future. If you really want to talk about it, this is a long-term solution." Jin Yang said: "Moreover, in the spring of next year, once the students of the academy participate in the Spring Festival, they will obtain The result is to enter the court as an official. According to the plan of the husband and the prince's brother, it can be effective, but it is bound to arouse the ideas of the five surnames and seven families. At that time, their goal will definitely be on the academy. They will be aware of the intentions of the husband and the prince's elder brother, so when the time comes, the academy will probably struggle."

Hearing Jin Yang's analysis, Xuan Shijing secretly agreed in his heart, if that time really came, how could the aristocratic family look at the academy as big?Then eat away their status in the court one bite at a time?
It can be said that the plan discussed by Xuan Shijing and Li Chengqian completely encloses the academy and completely exposes the academy to the eyes of the aristocratic family.

But even if there is no such thing, the academy will have this happen sooner or later.
