Chapter 520 Master and apprentice meet again [Part 4]
Guo Dashi's mansion, which was Zhang Juzheng's mansion back then, had guests here tonight.

However, this guest didn't seem to regard himself as a guest at all. After arriving, he walked into the backyard with a big swagger, and headed towards Mr. Guo Ge's back study.The servants of Ge Lao Mansion were not surprised, not only did no one stop him, but they all nodded and bowed to greet him.

Of course, this "guest" was none other than the personal disciple of Mr. Guo Ge, the chief assistant of the dynasty, the former "Guanzheng", Henan Xinke Xie Yuangao's pragmatic son Gao.

Guo Puben had a son, but unfortunately died of illness very early. Fortunately, he left behind two sons, both of whom are studying in their hometown.The two grandsons of Mr. Guo Ge are actually a little older than Gao Yushi in terms of age, but they don't seem to have much talent for reading. They didn't pass the exam until a little before Gao Gong died of illness.

Guo Pu was very dissatisfied with this—he was not mainly dissatisfied with his two grandsons who could not study well, but rather dissatisfied that he was awarded a scholar even though he was clearly unable to study.

In his opinion, the local officials in Anyang and Henan Xuezheng must have let them get this talent, so he was very angry about it. Generally, according to the tradition of Chinese dynasties, the grandpa and grandson are relatives of different generations. It is very important, but Guo Pu is a rigorous scholar. Because of these two unclear student qualifications, he still refuses to let his two grandchildren come to Beijing, and only allows them to study honestly in Anyang.

When Guo Pu was young, he had only one wife and one concubine, and later the concubine died of illness, so now only Guo Pu and his wife are the masters in the scholar's mansion, especially since there are no young people around, it is so big A bachelor's mansion was a little lifeless every day, until Gao Yushi came here, and finally got a little youthful breath.

When Gao Wushi met Guo Pu, he was quite honest at the beginning, and greeted Guo Pu well-behaved, but immediately began to lose his rules, and he said with a smile: "Teacher, the students are coming to Beijing this time, but they are here to participate. I will take the exam, it’s very stressful... so I have to ask the teacher for homework every day, isn’t it convenient for the teacher?”

Guo Pu still didn't know Gao Wushi's sinister intentions, so he said solemnly: "Since the old man promised Su Qing to accept you as a student, he must teach you well. When Su Qing was still there, he was watching , the old man can relax a bit, and don't need to control you too strictly. But now that he is gone, the old man will naturally take up this responsibility. You ask for advice every day, and the old man is too happy, why is it convenient?"

That's what Gao Wushi was waiting for, and quickly hit the snake with the stick, and said with a smile: "That's a good thing, since this is the case, the students will have the audacity to live with the teacher until the exam."

This was somewhat beyond Guo Pu's expectation, because he knew that Gao Yushi not only had only one Jianxinzhai in the capital, but also Gao Gong's former house was still there (however, the property right of this house now belongs to Gao Wuguan, Gao Yushi's second brother. Yes, he is Gao Gong’s heir, but he is still paying filial piety to Gao Gong in Xinzheng, so of course Gao Yushi can use this mansion), and he himself had another mansion in the capital before.

Gao Wuzhi has not only one house in the capital, but two.

One of them was rewarded by Zhu Yijun - it came from the seizure of Feng Bao's family property, but it was not Feng Bao's main house, but Feng Bao's younger brother Feng You's main house.This house is located in the southwest of Shibei Hutong, with Shichahai to the west. It has a beautiful scenery and occupies a large area. It was bought by Feng Bao for his younger brother when he was at the height of his power.

The other place was not bought by Gao Shishi himself, but was given by Cheng Guogong Zhu Yingzhen. This matter will be interrupted. Zhu Yingzhen’s grandfather and old Cheng Guogong Zhu Xizhong died of illness in the first year of Wanli. At one time, he was posthumously named King Dingxiang, and this matter was handled by Zhang Juzheng. Later, Zhang Juzheng died of illness, and Wanli began to settle the old accounts.

There is a man named Yu Maoxue, who was a Jinshi in the second year of Longqing. He impeached Zhang Juzheng during Zhang Juzheng's administration and was dismissed by Zhang Juzheng.After Zhang Juzheng's death, Zhang Siwei, Yu Maoxue's house teacher at that time, immediately reactivated him. As a result, Yu Maoxue, as always, rebelled against Zhang Juzheng's actions. After a bit of bad luck, Zhu Xizhong's prince was cut off again.

Gao Wushi felt that although Zhu Xizhong did not have any credit for leading troops to fight, he had saved Emperor Jiajing in the past, and he had always been the leader of the nobles in the Longqing Dynasty, and he was highly regarded by Longqing. One piece of paper and one piece of martial arts are all known to the prince through the banquet), so it is actually reasonable to make an exception and confer a prince.Of course, the more important thing is that Chengguo's mansion is now very close to Gao Dang—in fact, it is mainly close to him, Gao Pragmatic—so it should be awarded a prince, so that more people can see Let's see his ability to watch politics.

So Gao Wushi convinced the two palaces and the little emperor Zhu Yijun while persuading Gao Gong and Guo Pu not to object, and finally settled the matter. Therefore, Zhu Xizhong was still posthumously named Dingxiang King as in history.

At that time, Zhu Yingzhen's father, Zhu Shitai, succeeded Cheng Guogong very smoothly (the Ming Dynasty sometimes took a long time to approve the success of the noble), and he also contributed a little bit to this matter, but Zhu Shitai was originally a sick child, and the success of the noble was not much. He died of illness within a month.

In the original history, Zhu Shitai died in the second year of Wanli. As a result, the Chengguo government got involved in some things and offended Feng Bao. As a result, it was delayed until the eighth year of Wanli before Zhu Yingzhen was able to inherit the title.

But of course it won't happen this time, Gao Pragmatism, Zhu Yingzhen, as his right-hand man who brought down Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng, of course, was able to seize the title soon, and Zhu Yingzhen gave him a house after the matter was completed.This house is a little to the east of Guanglu Temple. The biggest advantage is that it is close to the imperial palace. It almost lives outside Dong'an Gate. Entering Dong'an Gate is inside the Forbidden City. Going further west is Donghua Gate, which means entering the palace city. up.

So although this house is not big, it was Gao Yushi's usual residence before.Of course, since Zhu Yingzhen can give it to Gao Yushi, the house itself will not be bad. Of course, there is no way to think about the size. After all, this piece of land is expensive, but the interior decoration is definitely top-notch.

So Gao Wushi suddenly said that he wanted to live with Guo Pu, Guo Pu was very surprised.

He thought for a while, and asked: "You have been refusing to go back to your hometown to take the exam before, saying that you were afraid that people would attack Suqing, why are you not afraid this time? This old man is your teacher, and he is the current chief assistant. Would you try?" You lived here before, so others don’t gossip?”

Gao Wushi smiled and said: "I'm not afraid this time, the student is also a Jieyuan now, and the lecturer Yu even specially rectified the name of the student, even if he is admitted to Jinshi now, it must not be so strange, right?"

Guo Pu already knew that Yu Shenxing had endorsed the highly pragmatic Xie Yuan in Kaifeng, so after thinking about it, he nodded and agreed: "If you want to live, then go live, anyway, this house is very big, there is no shortage of you. room."

Gao Wushi first smiled and thanked, then straightened his face slightly, and said: "Teacher, what happened today, the emperor is very angry..."

"Hmph, the old man is waiting for you to talk about this matter." Guo Pu snorted noncommittally: "Tell me, what is the attitude of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, and what is your attitude?"
