Chapter 194 The day of changing dynasties is coming
Shi He sat down on Shizhe, and took the teapot without hesitation, poured himself a cup of tea, and finished the cup of tea calmly. He sighed and commented, "The tea is good, but unfortunately the method of making tea is not good."
Shi Chuan picked up the teapot and poured a cup for himself. He also replied calmly: "The country people don't know how to make soup and grind tea... They just know that a pot of good water and a good teapot will make a cup of good tea."
In the Song Dynasty, water is water, and tea is tea. Powdered tea is poured into a teacup, grinding it with a small hammer, then brewing it with a boiling water, stirring the tea foam and making soup, and then savoring it carefully. The Song people, without a handful of tea - Piaotianwen, said: "My Shi family has not had a long origin. In the Emperor and Song dynasties, there were a total of two three-yuan people who passed the imperial examination. One was Feng Jingfeng who mistakenly regarded Feng Jing as Ma Liang, and the other was his ancestor.
Oh, my ancestor was once the prime minister, so my surname was also considered a prime minister’s family. In short, my grandfather happened to be the prime minister’s son. The only regret is that the descendants have no future and have not seen any outstanding people so far.”
Shi Chuan listened quietly to the other party's remarks. After a while, Huang E came back after sending her sisters. She quietly passed through Shi Chuan's seat, sitting next to Shi Chuan, and posing as a silent bystander. Shi Chuan continued: "Now, Changzong has three family members, namely Changzong Changfang, Seventh House and Nine Houses. All the legitimate branches of Changzong have five elements radicals in their names, and the five elements take turns. It is my turn to "water", so my name is Shi He.
The great-grandfather gave birth to five sons in total. In addition to the Changzong, the remaining two sects are now called Yuzhi and Shanzhi. As the name suggests, their names have the radicals of Yuzhi and Shanzhi, and they have always been like this. The remaining few sects can only be regarded as common branches, but they are only attached to the legitimate branches and the jade branches. This is the case with the Jiaxing Shi family."
Shi Chuan smiled slightly: "I also heard that there is a painter named Time. Why is there no radical in his name?"
Shi He smiled: "This time is also a secret in our clan. No one knows who he is. Only knows that three or five years ago, some landscape paintings flowed from Jiaxing, which are very popular with the Yan family. People all guessed that this might be a student taught by the Yan family father and son in private. The Yan family father and son happened to have close contact with their great-grandfather. The grandfather also liked to use the Yan family's techniques to draw landscape paintings. Unfortunately, no one among the clan members has come forward to admit that they are time.
After a long time, the clan vaguely speculated that this might be a concubine son who had to sell his paintings privately because he was forced by the mistress of the family. This kind of thing happens in the big family. In order not to cause persecution of the mistress, many people had to pretend to be dull in front of them to avoid causing death. As for the activities behind them... cough cough."
Shi Chuan nodded silently. Shi He felt as if he was talking to a piece of wood. His mouth was dry, but the other party was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
After a while, Shi He grabbed the teacup on the table, took a vicious sip, and continued: "There are all kinds of things in life for a wealthy family... After Haizhou City wiped out the kidnapper group, the Shi family had lost their daughters before, or died of illness early, so they were a little concerned about the news in the newspaper.
A few days ago, the Shi family of Jinhua came to Haizhou for study and happened to stay at Wang Yanzhang's mansion. They found that Wang's newly married concubine, the beautiful lady, often read a book of women. They asked casually and found Brother Shi's whereabouts.
It’s funny that the Shi family in Jinhua was impatient. They had originally made an appointment with Brother Shi, but they were delayed due to the turmoil. The contemporary Shi family in Jinhua felt neglected and left in anger. This person had dated Zaixia and met Zaixia on Yangzhou Road. When talking about this, he couldn’t help but want to come and visit him.
Brother Shi, please don’t blame Li Sanniang. I’m entrusting the concubine of the Prince Wang to ask Li Sanniang to keep a door. I originally wanted to watch from a distance. If Brother Shi has nothing to do with my family in Jiaxing, I will go quietly. If the wind passes through the water without trace, this matter will be over. Now, I want to know what Brother Shi means?"
Shi He now claims to be in the lower class, indicating that the other party understands the meaning of Shizhang. He no longer forces it, but takes an equal attitude to discuss.
Shi Chuan blinked his eyes and reiterated the old saying: "Master Gao's rebellion..."
Shi He could not hide it, so he admitted readily: "That rebellion has approached his home, but I, the Shi family in Jiaxing, are not chickens and ducks that can be slaughtered by others. At present, the Shi family is still safe for the time being. However, in order to avoid disaster, the Shi family has sent people to look for a place to move around. Recently, the Shi family in Jiaxing plans to move one to Guangzhou and the other to the north. If possible, either Fujian or Jingdong Road or Haizhou, it will be one of the options."
That's right, Shi Chuan continued to ask with a smile: "So, who is the leader of Shi's family now?"
Shi He replied: "The ancestor of the family is in danger. Six or seven years ago, my father had already taken over the position of patriarch. The family he moved to this time can be regarded as a separation from the clan. If possible, he will return to the ancestors after the war has subsided. If it doesn't work, then take root."
Shi Chuan asked again: "So, which sect am I?"
When Shi Chuan finally let go, Shi He was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "I heard that your name is Changqing, so why not change it to Changqing. Add three words to water. This name can be regarded as the concubine's son of the Changzong Changfang. What is this identity?
If not, then take Shi Yan (pronunciation) as the name - change the name of "Water" and the pronunciation is exactly the same, only the characters are different."
"The greater the temptation, the heavier the burden. What burden are you going to put on my shoulders?"
Shi He bowed: "I have a son, named Shi Can, and I am twelve years old. In addition, I have two concubines and three people. I hope to send my brother Shi to take care of him. Of course, the child is young, and the uncles from other side departments have to take care of him, but the two uncles made me worried. If Brother Shi is willing to supervise, I will leave the rest to me."
Shi Chuan frowned, thought for a while, and asked, "Mr. Gao's rebellion is just a mob in my opinion. Once the imperial army gathers, it will inevitably collapse. Is it worth abandoning the century-old ancestral house just for this small unrest?"
Shihe closed his fan and stared at Shizhi quietly, saying slowly: "In the past, Emperor Taizong of Tang once said that the people were water kings and boats, and the boats were overturned when the water boiled. Although the current Emperor and Song dynasties were prosperous on the surface, they had never been calm. On average, mutiny would occur every two years. But for a long time, the people were happy and rich, and the people respected the government. This unrest originated from the people - the people were resentful.
In all dynasties, once the people rise up and hate the court, or want to escape the jurisdiction of the court, the days of changing dynasties will come. Now Chuzhou has become a source of great disaster. Repairing a house on a rainy day is not a way to prepare for the future. To avoid disasters, it is wise to act when you hear the news. What do you think?”
Shi Chuan touched his chin: "It's amazing. I could have expected all this because... and you actually expected it too. I don't know how many talents are there in the world of Emperor Song and all the major families?"
Shi He bowed and smiled humbly: "The family that has remained for thousands of years naturally has its own way of survival. If it can survive and pass on the dynasty, it is naturally more alert than ordinary people. The unconscious family has been buried with the dynasty, so the families that can survive to this day are not fools.
In fact, when I put forward this view in the clan, not everyone agrees with my view, but my old father loves young sons and has to find a safe place to let the child hide for a while."
Shi Chuan stretched out his hand and flicked his fingers on the table: "In fact, in my opinion, the prosperity of Chuzhou has not yet begun. What Chuzhou needs now is just a good local official. For example, Dayin, who is similar to Zhang Shuye of Haizhou, began to train troupes during the uprisings... I remember that Huang Song had another policy, which was to train the wing army: in the turbulent areas, train those young and strong people who could not make a living into an army, and find a life of life for them, such as watching the door for the powerful and nobles, etc.
Haha, the government paid to hire unemployed people, and found them a job to raise them - I think this policy is very good. As the magistrate, Zhang Shuye can only train in the troupe. Tong Guan, as the Privy Councilor, has the right to train in the wing army. In this way, when Mr. Gao suffers one or two defeats, the local young people will be trained into the wing army by the court. He has no soldiers to supplement the rebellion, and the rebellion will soon be quelled..."
Shi He laughed silently: "I am not interested in what the court intends to do. But as a father, I can't stand the child in any danger - at worst, after the turmoil is over, the child will move back."
At this time, Huang E, who was listening, secretly poked Shituan. Shituan nodded immediately. He stretched out his hand and shook it with the other party, and replied: "I promise you."
A trace of water appeared in the corner of Shi He's eyes, and he nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Brother Changqing, the Shi family who moved here are all separated. They will buy land and build houses themselves, which will be counted as the property of other sects of Shi's clans. The original sect of Shi will never intervene. I know that Brother Changqing is in the countryside of Haizhou and has a reputation in the city. If there is any change, please take care of my Can'er."
Holding these two hands together, Shi Chuan immediately became the eldest son of the Shi family, Jiaxing, and the branch "Shi Chuan" - it is said that the original Shi Chuan only lived to be five years old. His biological father was Shi He's third uncle, who was originally a concubine of the eldest son. He was isolated early and died of illness in Yangzhou a few years ago. His biological mother wanted to live with her son Shi Chuan, but Shi Chuan died of illness at the age of five. After reporting the death to Shi'an, his mother remarried because she was lonely and helpless, and then disappeared without a trace...
Shi Yan's father was a family member and had already obtained an independent property portal, so he did not involve the issue of family division. Shi He's father didn't care much about this brother, so after Shi Yan reported the death, he did not register the news in time on the family tree. Now let Shi Chuan replace it - Ah, according to the traditional thinking at that time, he found incense for his brother, so that his brother's lineage could continue to be passed on and that his brother would not be lonely and ghosts drifted away. This is a great kindness for his brother...
