Chapter 9 Transformation
()
“It’s really immature!”
In the meeting hall, many uncles and chiefs of the family were here. Yang Ze's second uncle, Yang Yuanzheng, who was the father of Yang Wenyuan, finally couldn't help speaking. He was from a general and he often called out to Yang Ze, who was disliked by him. He usually protected his shortcomings. He just thought that Yang Ze, as the prince, was not as good as some young people in the clan. The more he thought about it, the more he was a little blushed and thick-necked, and said, "As the prince of the Marquis's family, is this how you deal with it?"
After saying that, Yang Yuanzheng looked at Yang Ze's father and said without hesitation, "This is the son you taught me. How could you explain what his naughty and stupid mind was thinking in full view of everyone?"
Yang Yuanzheng's words were unceremonious and he was assassinated by Yang Yuanzheng's father. If it were normal, there would be many inappropriate things. However, at present, the uncle Yang Weiming next to him also said sternly without saying anything. Yang Weiming is a close minister of His Majesty, and the demeanor he has developed in daily life is naturally extraordinary. But just looking at his dark clouded face, you can tell that he is also dissatisfied with this matter. He acquiesced to his behavior.
There are also several families around him with different expressions. Some shook their heads and sighed at Yang Ze, some looked at Yang Ze with indifferent expressions, and some felt a little sympathetic. After all, he was not only punished by the inside, but from the outside, almost his future prospect of marrying Dong Xuan was ruined. Some felt that it affected their usual travel face.
Faced with Yang Yuanzheng's harsh words, Yang Ze's father Yang Hongyuan moved his lips, as if thinking about the outside public opinion that the Hou's Mansion might face next, and he could not make any more excuses.
Yang Ze, who should have bowed his head and said nothing about the fault when a family boss gathered, raised his head in a slight shock to everyone, looked at his second uncle with clear eyes and said, "Correction you. First of all, I am not stupid and have no strange and naughty thoughts. At that time, since Prince Zhao of Changchun Housing excused Dong Xuan in person, she would take this step no matter what. If the eldest brother and second brother forced her to express their opinions, maybe they would not just be underestimated now. That is, the eldest brother and the second brother will fight with the eldest brother and the eldest brother, Cai Daolin, the great-grandson who participated in politics, Cao Chenggang of the Zhongshu Detachment and others! That is what you want to see?"
Yang Ze's words immediately made the anger of the family uncles who had originally contradicted Yang Yuanzheng without distinguishing their elders and suddenly suppressed them. They also made the people around him look surprised when they saw him. As long as they thought about it carefully, many family uncles and chiefs were also quite experienced figures outside, they had to admit that Yang Ze's words were very reasonable.
Although Yang Que and Yang Wenyuan are outstanding representatives of the family, they are young people after all and still have a passionate side. If they really fight with Cai Daolin, who is involved in politics in the kingdom, Cao Chenggang and others from the Zhongshu Desk, today they may be discussing the fight between many big brothers and nephews in the kingdom. The reputation of the kingdom's decline is far from being able to resolve the situation in this current situation.
Yang Yuanzheng was blocked by Yang Ze's words, his face turned red, and he obviously became angry, stared at Yang Ze, and snorted coldly, "Don't we know who you have been since childhood, he just did something wrong and went around and argued. How could he have such scheming ideas!"
Another rustling sound.
"So have you heard fighting and bleeding on the boat that day? Have you ever heard that the eldest prince of Qichun Hou chopped Zhao Jin's head with a sword? Have you ever heard that the Qichun Hou Mansion was insulted by the outside world and bullying the weak and despised?" Yang Ze did not look at Yang Yuanzheng's cold eyes at all, but looked around the audience, and a demeanor that was not his age was highlighting. "No, what you only heard was that the third prince of Qichun Hou was like, and sighed that I was a playboy and had a miserable life..."
The meeting hall gradually became quiet. It was not because of the content of Yang Ze's words, but because of the kind of misunderstanding that he had been blushed at the moment, which made people blush even if they finally found out that they misunderstood him, but suddenly disappeared and suddenly disappeared. Instead, they thought clearly and came one by one. Is this still like the Yang Ze on weekdays? Could it be that he has really grown up and learned to grow up?
Yang Ze, who was still secretly surprised, finally looked at Yang Ye, the "Shixin Hou" who had never spoken on the upper seat and said, "I know that the Hou Mansion is considering it from my standpoint. Many uncles and elders present are considering me. I hope I have a good life prospect. I will take care of the uncles and others here!"
"When I stood up, I had already guessed that this might happen later. Now, the outside world will only say how I, Yang Ze, don't know how to cherish it, and don't know how to use the reputation and background of the Qichun Hou Mansion in the world to give me happiness and well-being for the rest of my life... But that's not the life I want, so now even if I'm stuck in the backbone, I'm very happy."
"I am a casual person, so why should I be restrained? Even if I marry a wife as beautiful as a fairy, I have no position in her heart. I still have to worry about my uncles and elders present for the rest of my life... It's better to be arrogant and open-minded and keep myself alone... It's time to come, no matter what the outside world is, I will bear it with all my strength. No matter what the elders are punishing me now, I am willing to bear it."
This is a very beautiful statement! Although it has the taste of giving up on oneself, it is free and generous, and contains unprecedented sincerity.
Not only did Yang's father Yang Hongyuan look at his son who seemed to grow up and mature in an instant, and tears filled his eyes. He also made countless uncles and elders around him move him, and some even burst into tears.
Even his grandfather, Yang Ye, Hou of Qichun, looked at Yang Ze and nodded slightly. He actually praised silently.
Yang Ze's move was a force to bear the traits from the outside world. No matter how those people in the future hit the Marquis' Mansion, they would only say what he was, the naughty prince, but it was a pity that the reputation of the Marquis of Qichun... and so on, he gathered all the negative remarks on himself, and would never lose the prestige of the Marquis' Mansion and family in the royal capital.
Besides, among the many elders present, there were many dark memories that had quarreled with Yang Ze and even had a chance to have a broken face. However, they were moved by Yang Ze's affection for the elders this time. They were inexplicably excited by the contrast between the front and back. Some people couldn't help but speak a little awkwardly, "Yang Ze... you have finally grown up... OK, Uncle San is very pleased..."
Some people were deeply moved by these words and the responsibility shown by Yang Ze, "'I am a casual person, so it is better to be open-minded and keep it alone', a good character... Yes, I have no intention of practicing the way of heaven and have no extraordinary talent. This is not what he is wrong, what he wants. A little boy has already carried too much pressure from the outside world. As elders, how can we impose criticism on him and question it again. I am ashamed... Can this huge marquis's mansion not tolerate a person who naturally yearns for freedom?"
Even Yang Yuanzheng, the second uncle who had blushed and glared at Yang Ze, had to admit that he was moved by him and sat back on his seat without saying too many words against his heart.
From this point of view, although the incident started from Yang Ze at that time, the first one was Yang Ze's elder brother and second brother, and neither of them could escape the relationship. If Yang Ze had not stood up to face Dong Xuan, he would probably not have been able to resolve a fight that might have caused an uproar.
Thinking of this, there was also an uncle in the inner court saying, "According to me, Yang Ze's hand was not his recklessness at that time, but he truly showed the backbone and blood of the man in the Qichun Marquis Mansion. The second lady of the Dong family is good, but she must not look down on our third prince. In addition, she has now engaged in a engagement with Changchun Hou, and is swaying backwards. Such a prince's wife, it's better not to be so bad! Yang Ze's hand shows the recklessness and courage of the man in the Qichun Marquis Mansion that has not been revealed for a long time! The true blood and courage of the men in our mansion. Oh, I think Yang Kaitai, the great-grandfather of the founding Qichun king and prince, and went to the sixteen prefectures of the Anhui and Jin 1996 in one go. In that battle, there was almost no such strong enemy as Anhui and Jin dynasty. Could it be that our younger generations have never even had his character?"
This passionate speech caused a lot of responses to the scene.
Yang’s father Yang Hongyuan patted Yang Ze’s back of his hand from the bottom, and finally felt relieved in his heart and sighed, “You have finally grown up.”
In the end, the Marquis of Qichun nodded slightly, with a rare smile on his face, and looked at the audience with his eyes wide open, "Since that's the case, that's all. The two granddaughters of Dong Sima's family are excellent, and I am also happy from the bottom of my heart. It's a blessing for our Marquis' Mansion to get one, so why can't we expect two to enter our Marquis' Mansion at the same time? There is no regret for this result. As for Yang Ze and Ze'er, you can see that you have become much more mature over the past period of time, and the mansion will not strictly demand you in the future. You just need to reflect on yourself and discipline. This will make you more and more popular. The ceremony of the adult crown will be approaching. Family rules cannot be abolished. As the prince, you still have to strive to make progress and strive to break through the current dilemma of practice."
"I understand... listen to my grandfather's teachings." Yang Ze said this naturally. However, it was precisely such a natural sound of "grandfather", which made countless people in the mansion call him the noble Marquis, and even the old man. At most, Yang Ye, the marquis of Qichun, who respectfully called him grandfather, was stunned. Everyone around him was slightly surprised by Yang Ze's changes.
I just feel that this name from the folks is unspeakable at this moment, which makes Yang Ye's strong external courage quite touched and relieved.
When the family meeting in the meeting hall ended, many family elders who walked out still remembered the clear impression that Yang Ze reshaped in front of them. Compared with this, what are the mixed winds and rains outside?
And this journey will inevitably bring about the new year. We have to spend this not-so-long late winter, and the coming-of-age ceremony under the breath of spring sunshine will come.
