Chapter 165 Make plans early

Xie Lin also knew a little about the old things back then.

If we were to put it strictly, Xie Xiuwen's grandfather was cheated by the master's family, which was equivalent to taking the blame for the master's family. However, the master's family did not express anything. Over the years, he had never seen the master's family help that branch, which shows that it was a typical example of people leaving.

This practice of abandoning others as bad as traits is really disappointing.

Although Xie Lin was unfair to Xie Xiuwen's branch, he would not offend the master's family because of this, but this made him have some different views on some of his own affairs.

He had repeatedly advised his grandfather in his early years to keep a distance from the master's family.

When Xie Lin thought of a news, his face darkened slightly. He hurriedly took a few mouthfuls of rice and went to talk to his grandfather.

Mr. Xie is now an official outside. Although his official position is not high, he is somewhat of a real flaw. He is always more respected than taking on a false position.

Xie Ming had not yet rested, and since his beating his wife, he has been in a state of disgrace.

"It's so late, why do you think about coming over and talking to me?"

Xie Lin bowed and said, "Grandfather, grandson is here tonight, and I have some words to share with you."

Xie Ming pointed it casually and signaled him to sit down and chat.

"I heard that the grandfather of the master intends to send his daughter to the palace to participate in the talent show next year, and the master also sent us a post here. I want our girls to attend the banquet as well. I wonder if there is any profound meaning in this?"

Xie Ming turned around and was really more satisfied with this grandson.

There was no improvement in their group. It was not until the young man became a scholar that he saw a glimmer of hope.

If it weren't for the death of his old wife and the child missed the imperial examination, he wouldn't have passed the imperial examination now at the age of 24.

"You are keen, but a pity, your uncle and your third and fourth uncles have never noticed the danger."

When he heard the word "dangerous" mentioned, Schelling knew that he was right tonight.

"Grandfather and grandson say something disrespectful, the master's family may not be reliable. Just look at the one in Gaoyang County back then, you will know that they are far inferior to their ancestors."

Xie Ming sighed, could he not know that the main branch is now losing more and more?

But the problem is, knowing that it is one thing, but now the relationship is another.

"Don't you want your sisters to participate in the draft?"

Xie Lin shook his head: "The Xie family originally had a ancestral teaching and was not allowed to send their daughters to the palace. If the master wants to send people to the palace, that is their business, so it is better for us not to get involved."

Xie Ming was a little embarrassed. If their side branches wanted to gain a foothold in the capital, they still had to rely on the master's family.

Now that the second child is an official, the third child is just a foreigner, they both need help.

So at this critical moment, Xie Ming didn't really want to offend Xie Huaiyi.

"Grandfather, I know you have concerns. In the spring exam next year, my grandson will live up to expectations and be on the list. By then, I will stay in Beijing and my father will be better than before."

Xie Ming looked up and looked at him deeply: "Sanlang, you are a good child, but the officialdom is dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be crushed to pieces."

"The grandson is not afraid. If the grandfather, if he only depends on himself, he will not be able to become rich and noble, and at least he can live a more peaceful life. If he depends on his master's family in everything, he will probably be the one in Gaoyang County, which will be our future."

Xie Ming was shocked. How could he have never thought about this possibility?

Just for the future of his children and grandchildren, he always wants to take a try.

"I will consider this matter carefully. But you are right. I will not let our girl enter the palace. It is a place where people eat and don't vomit bones. My cousin was confused and thought of this method."

It would be fine if I had a serious marriage to the princes.

Now that the emperor is not yet thirty years old, the four concubines in the harem are all full. What if they send a woman into the palace at this time?

Don’t you have to climb up step by step from the lower level?

Not as good as a concubine!

A few days later, the banquet started lively on the Xie family's house on Anhe Street.

Xie Huaiyi, Xie Ming and several other old men were talking in the study together, and couldn't help but mention some of the students who entered Beijing.

Xie Ming didn't say much, mainly drinking tea. He didn't raise his eyes slightly until he heard someone mention Xie Xiuwen.

Xie Huaiyi naturally knew Xie Xiuwen's name.

"Brother Ming, have you heard of this Xie Jieyuan?"

"I have heard of it, but I have never seen it. I heard from my grandson that this son is quite talented. Later, I ordered someone to check it out and found out that he is considered old with our Xie family."

Is this called old?

If we were from the ancestors, would it be a grudge?

Isn’t Xie Xiuwen’s grandfather just cheated out of the capital by you?

Of course, no one will make this clear, but everyone knows it.

Xie Huaiyi didn’t care about a small Juren. What if he passed the Jinshi?

This is the capital city. Once you enter the court, fighting alone will never become a climate!

It is precisely because of Xie Huaiyi's disdain that Xie Xiuwen is just a part-time place and does not take it seriously.

It was not until the afternoon when the servant next to Xie Huaiyi came to report that he raised his face and explained a few words.

The banquet has ended and most of the guests have dispersed. Xie Huaiyi originally wanted to rest in the study room for a while, but he didn't expect that there were some juniors who insisted on coming to pay their respects and said that there were important things to report, so he had to pay attention to them.

When Xie Chen came over, he noticed that Xie Huaiyi looked bad, and obviously felt displeased.

"To my grandson Xie Chen meets with my grandfather."

Xie Huaiyi looked at him and had no impression of this cousin and grandson.

Among Xie Ming's grandsons, there is only one Xie Lin who can make him more concerned, and the remaining few are ineffective.

What's more, when you learn that he is the son of the third wife, you know that he is the one who was adopted.

"The servant said you have something important to report?"

"Yes, grandfather."

This was the first time Xie Chen met this grandfather alone like this, so he was naturally a little nervous. Even if Xie Huaiyi left the court for a few years, the pressure on his body would not be something that ordinary people could bear.

"Xie Xiuwen is a branch of Gaoyang County. He learned about Yuan Dynasty in this provincial examination and will definitely be on the list next year's spring exam. Grandpa of the cousin should make plans early."

Xie Huaiyi was puzzled: "So what if he passed the Jinshi? Besides, one of them has broken off relations with our master's family, and he is not a family. He is just a scholar. Why do you care about him so much?"

Xie Chen's heart skipped a beat and he was so scared that he was sweating.

"Grandfather, nephew, knows that you and Lord Qin have always supported each other, but Xie Xiuwen is Xu Yuanqing's disciple. His origin is very unusual. Once he enters the court, he will definitely be valued by the emperor in the future."

Xie Chen didn't dare to say everything, but he believed that Xie Huaiyi understood it.
