Chapter 359 The wind blows in Chang'an

Zhang Yue bowed to everyone and said, "The land in the river is entrusted to you!"

Pan Hong and others bowed back and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Zhang Yue looked around the fields, said goodbye to a group of people, and then got on the carriage.

"Set off!"

The order was given! The carriage started and the convoy headed east.

This time Zhang Yue returned to Luntai and did not take everyone back. Su Fei was left behind in Ershi City.

At this time, Zhang Yue already had a rough plan in mind for the future of the Western Regions.

…

Zhang Huan and Bingji spent more than ten days to select more than 30 people from poor families in Yunyang County, and then set off for Chang'an under the protection of a group of personal guards.

When Zhang Huan and his party arrived in Chang'an, it was already December of the fifth year of the First Yuan Dynasty.

In order to avoid suspicion, Zhang Huan and others separated from Bingji outside Chang'an City.

Naturally, Bingji went to give orders to the emperor and the general first, while Zhang Huan followed the people sent by Zhang Kun and returned to the Chang'an Marquis Mansion.

"Why isn't Zhang Jiacheng here?"

Zhang Huan asked casually.

The person sent by Zhang Kun said, "Zhang Jiacheng went to Yanmen a few days ago, and he hasn't returned yet!"

"Yanmen, that's it!"

Zhang Huan nodded, but said no more.

The next day, early in the morning, Zhang Huan took more than thirty poor scholars recruited from Yunyang County and went to the library to meet Du Ling.

"Boy, pay homage to Du Gong!"

As soon as he saw Du Ling, Zhang Huan came forward to pay homage as a descendant.

Du Ling hugged Zhang Huan's arm and helped him up.

"The gentleman has now assumed the position of doctor. This place is a library, and he should be called a subordinate..."

"My subordinates have learned a lesson!"

Zhang Huan had known Du Ling's character for a long time, so he didn't find it strange.

The two chatted for a while, and then Zhang Huan informed Du Ling about the recruitment of more than thirty scholars from poor families.

Zhang Huan was originally worried about Du Ling's attitude towards this matter, but unexpectedly Du Ling was extremely happy.

"Good... great good!"

Du Ling repeatedly praised him for his kindness.

"Why don't you please come in quickly!"

Du Ling gave instructions to his entourage.

Then he turned to Zhang Huan and sighed, "Now the library is short of manpower. It would be a great kindness to have these scholars join us!"

Zhang Huan was surprised when he heard this, "Chang'an is the best place in the world, how can the library be so short of manpower!"

Du Ling sighed, "All the schools have announced that scholars who join the library will not be allowed to join the schools again!"

Zhang Huan said in shock, "This is actually happening... What did your majesty and the general say?"

Du Ling was stunned when he heard this, "This is a matter between the library and the academic circles. How can I help your majesty and the general?"

Zhang Huan nodded understandingly. According to the rules, literary disputes should not involve outside forces.

He thought for a while and then said, "In that case, why doesn't Mr. Du follow Faluntai's example?"

Du Ling's eyes lit up and he said, "Imitating Luntai, the gentleman's intention is to run a private school?"

Zhang Huan smiled and said, "This is a royal library, so how can it be a private school..."

Du Ling held his hand and said, "What the gentleman said is true. You are worthy of being the Queen of Yunyang Marquis. Tomorrow I will write to Your Majesty, please open a new school..."

After Zhang Huan heard this, he stood up and bowed and said, "Now, I would like to thank you for your kindness on behalf of the nobles..."

Du Ling has always been a resolute and resolute person, after placing Zhang Huan and others in place.

Fu Jiezi was immediately invited to the library.

As soon as Fu Jiezi entered the door, he shouted, "Why is Du Gong looking for you?"

Du Ling laughed loudly and said, "Someone has some good tea. Would you like to drink it?"

Fu Jiezi sighed deliberately, "I'm afraid Du Gong's tea is not good to drink!"

The voices of Fu Jiezi and Du Ling attracted everyone at once.

Zhang Huan also hurried over to meet him.

Fu Jiezi clicked his tongue and praised, "What a brave gentleman!"

Zhang Huan said with a smile on his face, "My dear, pay homage to Mr. Fu!"

Fu Jiezi nodded and couldn't help but sigh, "When I first met you, I was still a swaddled baby. Unexpectedly, I have become a handsome gentleman now... I don't know how many Chang'an women will do it in the future..."

After Fu Jiezi beat Zhang Huan for a while, he and Du Ling entered the building arm in arm.

Because he did not want the young Zhang Huan to be involved, Du Ling sent him directly back to the Yunyang Marquis Mansion.

Zhang Huan also knew that it was not the time for him to participate in the court.

Returning to Chang'an against Zhang Yue's wishes is already the limit, so he should try to keep a low profile in the following days.

In order to avoid becoming the target of everyone, Zhang Huan is currently considering whether to return to Yulin Orphans.

…

After Du Ling and Fu Jiezi entered the library, their expressions became serious.

Fu Jiezi first asked, "Does Mr. Du have something important?"

Du Ling said, "Master Fu, I want to do what Luntai did, what do you think?"

"What happened in Luntai!" Fu Jiezi was shocked when he heard this.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "Does Mr. Du want to do something about the academy?"

"It's not the academy!" Du Ling shook his head and said

Fu Jiezi's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Du Gong wants to imitate the literary master!"

"That's it. What do you think, Mr. Fu?" Du Ling leaned forward, hoping to get Fu Jiezi's support.

Fu Jiezi did not answer immediately. He thought for a while and said, "If Du Gong wants to imitate Wen Weng, he will have to face the full opposition of everyone in the Imperial Academy..."

"I don't know whether this is good or bad... but there is one person who may be helpful!"

Du Ling asked, "Who is Mr. Fu talking about?"

Fu Jiezi said, "The general's subordinate Tian Yannian!"

Du Ling was shocked, "It's actually him!"

Fu Jiezi affirmed, "Yes, this is the person!"

"Although this person's status is still low, from a certain perspective, he must have great talent... and more importantly, he is ambitious..."

Du Ling thought carefully in his mind and then said, "Can Mr. Fu invite him to the library?"

Fu Jiezi said, "Yes, but there is one person who is more suitable than someone else!"

Du Ling asked curiously, "Who is he?"

Fu Jiezi smiled and said, "Who else can it be? Of course it is Tian Yannian's lord Binggong!"

Du Ling suddenly said at this time, "A few days ago, I seemed to have heard that Duke Bing wanted to recommend someone to be the general and commander of history. I never thought that it would be this person..."

Fu Jiezi said, "Although Tian Yannian did not become the general, he is now the right-hand man of the general..."

Fu Jiezi continued, "If we can get the support of the general through this person, Duke Du will bear much less risk in this matter!"

Du Ling was not happy when he heard this. He asked Fu Jiezi:

"Mr. Fu, I heard that General Zuo and the General have been at odds with each other recently. I wonder if it's possible at this time?"

Fu Jiezi did not hide anything and said in a low voice, "But there is such a thing!"

Du Ling was surprised and said, "I don't know why?"

Fu Jiezi said, "General Zuo wants to make his son Shangguan'an's daughter his queen!"

Du Ling was shocked, "How can Shangguan An's daughter be a queen when she is only five years old!"

Fu Jiezi agreed, "Yes, although Shangguan An's daughter is also the granddaughter of the general, the general still refused General Zuo's invitation..."

Du Ling was surprised and said, "This is just a trivial matter. Why would General Zuo have to be at odds with the General over this matter?"

Fu Jiezi sighed, "Of course it's more than that..."
