Xu Jingzong stood at the door to greet him, "Master Zhang, would you like to come in and sit down? It has just been built not long ago, and the smell of sawdust is still very strong."
The two of them stood against the wall, just in time to catch the sun.
Following Zhang Yang's example, Xu Jingzong also put his hands in his sleeves. He was in a good mood and at least he had accomplished something big.
In the eyes of others, Zhang Shilang may be idle all day long, but only by actually working with Zhang Shilang can we understand that Zhang Yang is a man with rifts in his heart and ambition.
Zhang Yang will not reveal these ambitions to others easily.
"What's going on with Ju Wentai? How does the court plan to deal with him?"
Hearing Zhang Yang's words, Xu Jingzong came back to his senses: "According to Zhongshu Province, Ju Wentai made a false accusation this time, and Zhang Shilang will not be punished."
"False accusation?"
"That's right." Xu Jingzong nodded and said: "After all, Ju Wentai is also the lord of the Western Regions. Tian Khan does not want to deal with this lord of the Western Regions. Your Majesty wants the hearts of the Western Regions. It is Gaochang's own business after all. Gaochang must do it himself.
solve."
Zhang Yang frowned and said, "Send it back to Gaochang?"
"Yes." Xu Jingzong sighed: "Send someone to escort him to Gaochang and let the people of Gaochang deal with him."
Zhang Yang sighed: "It would be easier to kill him in Chang'an."
Xu Jingzong nodded in agreement, "When Ju Wentai and his son are escorted to Gaochang, they will face the anger of tens of thousands of people, which is more terrifying than killing him. Once these two father and son are escorted back to Gaochang, they may
They were eaten alive by people from the Western Regions."
Zhang Yang couldn't help but shudder, "What a cruel method."
Xu Jingzong saluted towards the Taiji Hall again, "This can win the hearts of the Western Regions and convince the public. The mistakes made by the King of Gaochang and let the people of Gaochang deal with him are also setting an example for the people of the world as the Khan of Heaven.
The Khan is wise!”
This guy is getting better and better at telling lies with his eyes open.
This old boy will be a disaster sooner or later.
A familiar figure walked into the imperial city. Zhang Yang took a closer look and asked, "Is that person Li Baiyao?"
Xu Jingzong took a closer look and said, "Huh? It's really him."
Zhang Yang leaned against the wall, folded his hands and whispered, "Didn't this person get kicked out of the Ministry of Etiquette by Gao Lu?"
Xu Jingzong explained: "Gao Jingzhi did indeed expel him from the Ministry of Rites, but his name is in the official list of the Ministry of Personnel. Gao Jingzong did not expel him as an official. Of course he is still a member of our Ministry of Rites."
"The roaring summer is here, and the grass and trees are luxuriant. The sadness is always there, the southern soil is rumbling, and the grass is luxuriant..."
Li Baiyao read aloud with his hands behind his back.
Thinking back to the books he read in the Imperial College, Li Baiyao was reading the chapter "Huaisha" among the nine chapters of Qu Yuan.
Xu Jingzong said again: "Secretary Zhang, why should our brother hide something from us?"
He Bi in the village has always been a very casual person. Zhang Yang took a breath, "What can happen to him?"
Xu Jingzong lowered his voice and said, "That day, the official's informant saw why he was arguing with a widow, so he inquired carefully."
"The Xuanwen place is secluded, and Meng Chen calls it irregular. Li Lou is looking at it..."
Li Baiyao walked to the etiquette department and read louder.
After glancing at him, Zhang Yang immediately looked away and whispered: "What is the background of the widow?"
Xu Jingzong thought for a moment and replied: "The widow brought two sons and a daughter, both about ten years old. The widow's husband was originally in the army with He Bi. The two were good brothers who died.
It's a pity that He Bi's brother died in a battle on Hedong Road."
"Why did he agree to his brother and take care of his legacy, that is, this widow? He gave all the money he earned from doing business with Mr. Zhang to this widow. The widow was also a sensible person. She would not give up anything and would rather be punished.
I help people wash clothes every day and earn a little money from Hukou without spending a penny."
"What happened next?"
The gossip aroused, Zhang Yang asked, he was also curious before.
Ding Liao earned money, married a daughter-in-law, built a big house, and spent all the money on his family. But he was curious as to why he spent all his money on it.
I knew before that there was no need to hide things in my heart. He must be a person with a story. I didn't expect it to be so twists and turns. No wonder such a person who doesn't care about anything has stayed in Chang'an City to take care of his brothers who died in the war.
's family.
"The task is heavy and heavy, but it is stagnant and useless. Huai Jin holds Yu..." Li Baiyao continued to read.
Xu Jingzong whispered: "I heard that the widow's husband died for He Bei. He blocked a fatal knife for He Bei."
The war has destroyed so many families, why should we be a good man who values friendship?
"Why did he put down his words at that time? As long as his brother's sons and daughters have grown up, he will leave Chang'an City." Xu Jingzong looked helpless.
"He's not a handsome man, but he's a mediocre man. He's mediocre at the same time...cough, cough, cough." Li Baiyao suddenly coughed, as if he was overly angry.
Zhang Elephant came out with a bowl of water, "Brother Baiyao, do you want a drink of water?"
Li Baiyao took the bowl of water and drank a sip before he could breathe again, "Thank you."
He looked at Zhang Yang and Xu Jingzong again, "What article do you two think the official is reading?"
"One of Qu Yuan's Nine Chapters: Huaisha." Xu Jingzong said it without thinking.
Li Baiyao is a talented and learned person, and he also wants to show off his talents and learning. Xu Jingzong is also a talented and learned person, at least no worse than ordinary literati. He is also a true talent and scholar, otherwise he would not have become the original scholar.
Eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace.
"Back then, Qu Yuan was unable to save the Chu State from danger, but he was slandered and his life was rough." Li Baiyao said hesitantly.
It seems that now Li Baiyao is so determined to serve the country, but cannot be welcomed by others. This is the first time he has entered the imperial city after being kicked out of the Ministry of Etiquette by Gao Jingcheng.
Zhang Yang bumped Xu Jingzong with his arm, "Is there anything the Ministry of Rites needs to be busy with recently?"
Xu Jingzong understood the hint in Zhang Yang's eyes and said, "Recently, the Ministry of Rites wants to recruit a civil servant. The Ministry of Education has given us a list and we are still selecting. In addition, many classics from foreign countries have also been sent. It will take a few days."
Nanzhao will also send envoys over, there are a lot of things to do, and it is really too busy."
Looking at Zhang Yang's eyes again, Xu Jingzong smiled with relief, "Brother Baiyao, please sort out Nanzhao's classics, meet with the roster given by Zhongshu Province, meet those scholars, and select a few to serve in the Ministry of Etiquette.
.”
Li Baiyao looked up to the sky and sighed, "Well, for the sake of the country, I will live up to what I have learned in my life. I will work hard again in the Ministry of Rites."
After speaking, Li Baiyao walked into the yamen of the Ministry of Rites and helped Zhang Xiangxiang organize his affairs.
"After Li Baiyao left the Ministry of Rites, he was depressed all day long." Xu Jingzong added in a low voice, "All he had to do was scold his Gao Jingcheng ancestor."
Zhang Yang warned: "Don't offend me to death. From now on, you will still treat Brother Baiyao the same way. He won't need to be involved in key matters."
"I understand, he is talented and learned anyway, so it would be just right for him to write articles for the Central Publishing House." Xu Jingzong sighed.
Li Baiyao has already entered working mode.
In the Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin listened to Fang Xuanling's story with a solemn expression.
"Songtsen Gampo's troops are getting stronger and stronger?" Li Shimin took a sip of tea after hearing this.
"Since last year, Songtsen Gampo has been intensifying his military strength and has successively captured many small tribes in the north of Tubo. These actions are in preparation for the war."
When I thought of Tubo, Zhang Yang gave me some advice. After a closer look, I realized that the Central Plains had always been negligent in guarding against Tibet. Who would have thought that Songtsen Gampo would have raised such a big one in a bitterly cold place?
Soldiers and horses.
Fang Xuanling saluted and said: "Your Majesty, Ju Wentai and his son have been escorted to Gaochang, and your Majesty's decree has been sent out. I think the news will be sent out in half a month at the earliest."
Li Shimin spit out some broken tea leaves, "What has Zhang Yang been doing these days?"
Fang Xuanling replied: "It's the same as usual, except that Her Royal Highness the Princess's fief has been under construction. Rumor has it that there has never been a princess palace built on the fief."
It is indeed rare for a princess fiefdom to not have a princess mansion.
The couple built extensively on the land, but did not build their own mansion.
"I can't see through my son-in-law." Li Shimin smiled, "When my father was in power, all his daughters and sons or his consorts all wanted something from him, but this Zhang Yang was honored and disgraced.
Not scared, not humble or arrogant."
Hearing His Majesty talk about family matters, Fang Xuanling fell silent again.
Li Shimin took another sip of tea and said, "Xuanling, you guys are the most transparent in seeing people and things in the court. Tell me, does this Zhang Yang want something?"
Fang Xuanling bowed and said, "I don't understand either. I've only met the consort a few times but never talked to him."
Li Shimin looked outside the palace, "Gao Shilian said that he is an unscrupulous person."
"Your Majesty, there are many people in this world who are unscrupulous, but there are few who stick to their true intentions."
Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded. Some people try to climb up by any means. What does it look like for a twenty-year-old young man to be respectful to others? He is only over twenty, and Zhang Yang has the skills and courage to dare to challenge the King of Gaochang.
Most of the Chinese officials in the DPRK were disciples of Confucianism, and respecting teachers and teaching was their lifelong mission.
Do those Confucian scholars in their twenties dare to do this?
What a good minister.
I asked myself how many heroes I have recovered over the years, but how many heroes can I still recover? A young man of twenty years old?
Li Shimin's eyes were gloomy, "This son will definitely be used by me in the future."
After walking around the imperial city, Zhang Yang returned home. Little Bear has become more and more lazy recently.
Crouching down and looking at the little bear sitting with his eyes closed, Zhang Yang said helplessly: "Daughter-in-law, you said that this animal we raised at home used to be afraid of becoming a dog, but now I think it will become a pig."
Li Yue narrowed her eyes and smiled, "It grew up so fast, and now I can't even hold it."
Aunt Wang came back from outside and said, "Your Highness, everything is ready."
"Husband, the King of Hejian County asked someone to bring cotton from the Western Regions."
"There shouldn't be much cotton this season."
"There really aren't that many anymore."
The couple walked out of Chang'an City together and saw Li Yue still holding the address of the Western Regions in his hand.
The Western Region is in her own hands, and she is very curious about this property that she has never seen before.
"Our family now has endless amounts of mutton, as well as a lot of grapes, raisins, and stuffed grapes."
Li Yue got on the carriage, and the little bear swayed and climbed onto the carriage. It had grown to knee height and was now able to climb onto the carriage of its own accord.

When walking on Zhuque Street, pedestrians would walk around when they saw this animal.
It would be terrible if this bear grows bigger.
Now it can be used as a pillow and footrest.
On the day when the two big geese were defeated by the little bear, Li Yue ordered them to be killed and stewed.
When they arrived at the village, the little bear ran into Lishan Mountain. He was tired of visiting such a small village.
Now it always likes to run to Lishan Mountain, as if it wants to expand its territory.
Li Yue gave the bacon she made last year to her wife.
Zhang Yang looked at Zhang Gongjin's expression and smiled: "Congratulations, teacher, for living another year."
Zhang Gongjin sat on the chair, "Are you really congratulating me with these words?"
Zhang Yang poured tea for him, "Teacher, you have to take good care of yourself. I always feel that there are no good people in this court. One day I am bullied, who will support me?"
Zhang Gongjin took the tea with a look of enjoyment, "Prince of Hejian County?"
Zhang Yang laughed out loud, "Teacher, don't be ridiculous, look at how the Hejian County Prince can support me now that he doesn't even dare to return to Chang'an City."
Zhang Gongjin turned to look at Li Xiaogong, who was walking his dog in the distance with a smile.
"Then General Cheng Yaojin?"
"General Cheng Yaojin and I only have business dealings. At most we have some interests, and we have met a few times in court."
"Isn't there another Supreme Emperor?"
Looking around, I saw Li Yuan and a group of naughty children making a fuss. The old man was laughing a little silly.
"Look at this old man, what does he do all day long? He is already old age, so don't embarrass him."
"How is Wei Zheng?"
"Mr. Zheng...Mr. Zheng and I are not from the same family."
Zhang Gongjin patiently asked: "You yourself feel that you and Wei Zheng are not the same person, but in my opinion Wei Zheng is very suitable to lead you."
Pouring himself a bowl of tea, Zhang Yang impatiently drank a sip.
"I know that you are usually humble when treating others. You must maintain this humility in the future. Stay humble. Whether it is in front of Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, or ordinary people, as long as you show humility in front of them, then they will never
I will look down upon you."
Another reading comprehension question...
Terrible reading comprehension, it has no standard answers.
Zhang Yang shook his head and sighed: "I think it's ridiculous sometimes. If you want power to respect you, you have to defy him and oppose him, so that the owner of power will respect you."
Zhang Gongjin said seriously: "Do you know why Your Majesty wanted to keep Wei Zheng?"
Why did Li Shimin keep Wei Zheng? Even in history, this is a topic that many people debate.
After scratching his head vigorously, Zhang Yang sat down and looked up at the sky, "How can I know if I have to ask Your Majesty about such a thing?"
"It doesn't matter if it's a little bit of Hutu." Zhang Gongjin nodded as he said that, "It's fine if it's a little bit of Hutu."
After chatting with the teacher for a while, I walked into Li Yue's room. A map of Gaochang was hung on the wall. Li Yue made a lot of marks on it, including grapes and cotton.
