Zhang Gongjin drank the tea soup to dispel the fire, "Ask me why I'm not dead yet."
"Then did you reply?"
Zhang Gongjin said in a deep voice: "I have burned the letter and haven't replied yet."
Think carefully about what the teacher’s ancestral land is like?
Is this waiting for someone to pass away and then start the banquet?
Zhang Gongjin whispered, "My hometown is Fanshui in Weizhou. It was not easy for a prince to be born in that land. Now they are waiting for my death and plan to hold a grand event. When we were living well in the past, there was no one."
See them so anxious."
In fact, Zhang Gongjin was only forty years old. A man who was forty years old was still in his prime. It was a pity that he passed away like this.
"Live a few more years." Zhang Yang whispered, "See more of the scenery in this world. Teacher, listen, I will make Lishan a very beautiful and wealthy place. You must see it, I
Provide care for you in your old age.”
The teacher's wife secretly wiped her tears, and Li Yue saw it and comforted her in a low voice.
Listening to Zhang Yang's words, Zhang Gongjin just nodded, "I used to think that I wouldn't live for more than a few years. Now all the doctors in the Lishan Medical Center are studying my condition. I heard Sun Simiao said that this method is very suitable. His personal medical skills
We will also improve as the team learns.”
"That's all because the teacher taught me well."
"When did I teach you this?" Zhang Gongjin put down the tea bowl and whispered: "You are now the Minister of Rites. I was not as good as you back then."
"There is no teacher who is inferior to his students. Students are just more courageous and have negotiated some terms with His Majesty."
Zhang Gongjin shook his head, "It is not a good idea to negotiate terms with His Majesty just because you have some advantage. A show in the forest will destroy it. Don't hesitate when you should advance rashly, and know how to give in when you shouldn't rashly advance. Do you know Tang Jian?
"
"I know him and have met his son, but I have never met Tang Jian."
Zhang Gongjin whispered, "Tang Jian is a man who thinks very highly of himself. In fact, His Majesty is already tired of him, and he doesn't even know it yet."
"Tang Jian is now in charge of the household department."
Zhang Gongjin nodded again, "I am not as good at recognizing people as Gao Shilian, but after so many years of ups and downs, I have seen many characters and experienced the style of heroes from all walks of life. Some of them ended up disappearing from everyone.
, some died in battle, all this is related to their temperament."
"Now is the peaceful period, and it is not Li Yuan who is sitting on the throne. This Tang Jian is still alive when he conquered the world and made friends with heroes. He does not know what the court needs now. He does not study affairs carefully and only cares about making friends.
Aspiring people, if such people stay in the household department, sooner or later something will happen."
Zhang Yang helped Zhang Gongjin get up and listened to his story.
After a while, Zhang Yang looked at the sky again and said, "Teacher, it's getting late."
Zhang Gongjin's words continued, "I once said: Those who are strong will not die. I will be your godfather. I can see that Li Xiaogong wants to be your godfather. I understand his thoughts. He is a good man. You don't need to hide."
he."
"Teacher, it's really getting late. Let's go back now." Zhang Yang quickly interrupted the conversation and left with Li Yue.
Li Yue looked back and said, "The teacher still has something to say."
Zhang Yang walked quickly, "If you listen too much, it sounds like the old man is explaining his funeral affairs. If you listen too much, I feel uncomfortable. Don't let him finish. This will let the old man have thoughts and thoughts about living."
"Yeah." Li Yue nodded in a low voice.
Lishan Mountain is backed by the Weishui River. Down from the Weishui River is a large area of fertile farmland. This is a treasure land. Making good use of this treasure land can bring huge wealth.
Aunt Yang came with Li Tai, but before they could reach her, Li Tai came running all the way, "The surname is Zhang!"
He's not very tall, he's even very fat, but his voice is not small at all.
The loud voice echoed at the foot of Lishan Mountain.
This title has been out for a long time.
Li Tai screamed and ran closer, "The last name... is wrong..."
He swallowed his saliva and changed his words: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law!"
Zhang Yang stood there, "What? Your Highness the Crown Prince finally wants to kill King Wei to consolidate his position as Crown Prince?"
Li Tai waved his hand and said: "No!"
Zhang Yang asked again: "Is it possible that you have prepared three thousand dead soldiers to sneak into the East Palace late at night and chop up the prince, so that you can take over the East Palace?"
Li Tai wiped his sweat and was still calming his breathing.
"I told His Royal Highness King Wei to exercise more. Look, you managed to lose some weight last year, and now you are so fat. How can you deal with it in the rest of your life?" As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yang saw Li Tai and hugged him.
cut his own legs.
Zhang Yang wanted to take his legs back, but the little fat man held on tightly, "If you have anything to say, just say it! Don't be so fickle, or I'll beat you!"
Li Tai shook his head vigorously, "I won't let you go."
Li Yue shook her head in disappointment and turned away, not even looking at whether her husband beat her or not.
Zhang Yang was about to hit the fat man on the head with a violent hammer, but Li Tai quickly shouted: "Papermaking!"
Baoli paused in mid-air, only for a moment, and then hit Li Tai on the forehead. Zhang Yang said melancholy: "Your Highness, King Wei, shouted so loudly, was he afraid that others would not know that we have papermaking skills?"
Li Tai finally let go of his hand and grinned, "I have long guessed that my brother-in-law has papermaking skills, but I have never been convinced. Now I heard from my aunt that my original guess was indeed right."
"It's good to know."
"Why didn't you take it out in the first place?"
After looking at the sunset on the horizon, Zhang Yang whispered the reason for the incident.
"I see, it was really not easy for my brother-in-law to protect himself back then."
"I am still powerless now." Zhang Yang talked as he walked back to the carriage.
"How can my brother-in-law be so powerless? My brothers are me and Chu Mo, and my brother-in-law is the Prince of Hejian. Who dares to go against my brother-in-law?"
Zhang Yang snorted coldly: "Can you fight against the five surnames?"
Li Tai shook his head.
"If the fifth surname puts pressure on Chaotang, do you think your father can withstand the pressure?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Tai still shook his head.
"Once the noble family calls on scholars to attack our Lishan Mountain, will you be able to defeat it?"
Li Tai couldn't help but shake his head, "What should we do?"
"Does His Highness the King of Wei understand the benefits of hiding one's clumsiness?"
"What's the benefit?"
"Grow well and don't waste it."
Li Tai scratched his head in confusion, "Is this what Zangzhuo said? It can be used in this way?"
"Whether it works or not, the matter of papermaking must be kept secret. Do you understand now that the interests of King Wei and me are related?"
Li Tai couldn't help nodding, as if pounding garlic, "I will move all the people from the Wei Palace to protect our factory and papermaking technology. If anyone dares to say a word, I will not spare him."
Zhang Yang raised his head and looked at Aunt Yang.
Aunt Yang nodded and said, "The production method and flow chart have been handed over to King Wei."
"It is related to future development plans. When the time comes, there is no need to hide it anymore." Zhang Yang looked sad, "I don't know how long we have to wait for this opportunity. If I were your father, I would be happy to wipe out the family."
"Sow in spring, grow in summer, harvest in autumn, and store in winter." Xiao Wu meditated while holding a scroll in front of the warrior Xun.
Samurai Yu had a smile on his face.
Seeing Zhang Yang and Li Yue coming, Xiao Wu ran over on her short legs and said, "Teacher, I know the words in this book."
Warrior Xun bowed and saluted, "Order of Lishan, Your Highness the Princess."
Xiao Wu laughed and said: "Dad, I will go back to Chang'an with the teacher first."
Warrior Xun nodded, "You must listen to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Xiao Wu nodded heavily.
When we arrived at the carriage, the little bear was already sitting on the carriage. There were some weeds on its body and it was in a mess. It had gone wild somewhere, and the fur on its back was stained with a lot of wet mud.
It was scratching its plump belly with its paws.
Xiao Wu was very happy when he saw that the little bear was really back. He didn't dare to touch it even though it was dirty.
The family left the village. The empty cart was tied to the carriage and was being pulled away, making a squeaking sound as the wheels rolled.
"I'm still a little worried about handing over the art of papermaking to Qingque."
"He is more anxious to do a good job than anyone else. He is also the person who can best protect the art of papermaking. Furthermore, even if people know that the art of papermaking is in the hands of King Wei, no one will touch him easily."
Having such a brother-in-law is usually very distressing, but fortunately he is shrewd and a guy who refuses to suffer losses.
Simple people are the easiest to be happy and the most satisfied.
Nowadays, most of the middle-aged people in the Tang Dynasty have suffered from the flames of war. After surviving the troubled times, they cherish the peaceful days in front of them very much. There is nothing more precious than the peace in front of them.
The next morning morning, I thought this morning's morning would end as smoothly as yesterday.
The groggy Zhang Yang was pushed awake again by Xu Jingzong.
Zhang Yang opened his eyes and saw the emperor looking at him, and the civil servants around him were also looking at him. Could it be that he was discovered while sleeping.
Then he looked at an old minister with white hair and beard standing in front of the court.
"Your Majesty, I impeach Zhang Yang, the Minister of Rites, and imprison the envoy from Qiuci. If there is a complaint, there will be no prosecution. If there is a reason, there will be no prosecution."
This is the trouble that becomes bigger and bigger as you become an official. Many people are staring at you, and someone might jump out to impeach you.
Hearing that the Kucha envoy was imprisoned, Zhang Yang turned back and looked at Xu Jingzong, "Is this happening?"
Xu Jingzong replied: "Your Majesty, the country in Kucha has been destroyed. I just arranged for the Kucha envoy to comfort him when he is so sad."
"How about letting the Kucha envoy enter the palace for a confrontation?"
Li Shimin nodded in agreement.
Looking at the civil servants and generals of the Manchu Dynasty, Zhang Yang took a step forward and asked: "May I ask who it is in person..."
"You don't even know me, but you are still the Minister of Rites."
Xu Jingzong whispered: "This is Yongning County Duke, Wang Gui."
Zhang Yang took a breath and said, "It turns out he is the Duke of Yongning County. I have admired him for a long time."
"Humph." Wang Gui flicked his sleeves without saying much.
Everyone was also waiting for Nali, the envoy from Kucha, to come to the court to confront him.
Judging from the time, it was almost the end of the court, so everyone could go about their business in peace, and there was a lot of discussion in the palace.
The Minister of Rites was in trouble. He was sued after only two days in office before he could secure his position.
The envoy from Kucha ran all the way into the palace and fell to his knees with a plop. He cried and howled, "Last night someone told the foreign minister that the person who destroyed Kucha was Zhang Yang, the Minister of Rites, and asked the Khan to make the decision."
Zhang Yang frowned and looked at Xu Jingzong again, wondering if he was watching this person closely?
Wang Gui said: "Your Majesty, yesterday the Tibetan envoy told me that the Kucha envoy knelt down and cried in front of the Zhuque Gate. Only then did I find out about it, so I asked someone to pretend to be a postman to see the Kucha envoy.
There were officers and soldiers guarding the room outside, and after asking, I found out that this was the intention of the Ministry of Rites."
Looking back again, Wang Gui asked loudly: "I wonder what the Minister of Rites explained?"
The old guy spoke with great enthusiasm. Zhang Yang replied: "Kiuchi has been captured. This is a fact. Is this Kucha envoy coming to redress his grievances and restore his country?"
Nali raised his eyes that were already red from crying, "Qiuci has always been a peaceful country in the Western Region. How dare you ask the Minister of Rites why he gave the order to attack me, Qiuci."
There was another buzz of discussion in the court hall, like a swarm of mosquitoes buzzing, which was very disturbing.
Wei Zheng couldn't bear it anymore, so he stood up and preached to the court: "Everyone in the court is silent!"
Only then did everyone become quiet.
Faced with Wang Gui's questioning, the envoy Nali once again cried out for injustice.
Zhang Yang said: "Why can't Qiuci be beaten?"
Wang Gui shouted loudly: "Why can't we fight? Zhang Yang is so arrogant!"
The words were loud and clear in the Tai Chi Hall. Some people lowered their heads and waited for the matter to pass, while others waited for the outcome of the matter with great interest.
"Am I arrogant?" Zhang Yang laughed angrily, "How am I arrogant?"
Wang Gui stared, "You dare to be so arrogant at such a young age. You are just a lucky minister, but you dare to secretly use the troops and horses hidden in Gaochang to destroy a country wantonly! How can the country's diplomatic relations be left in the hands of you?"
Xu Jingzong's brows jumped sharply when he heard these words, and he replied: "May I ask Yongning County Duke, why is there anything wrong with Zhang Yang's meritorious service being ranked as the Minister of Rites?"
Wang Gui raised his head slightly and said, "Young people often lack moral integrity!"
Seeing that Xu Jingzong wanted to speak, Zhang Yang stopped him with his eyes, then took a step forward and looked at Wang Gui, "First of all, it is indeed my intention to attack Qiuci."
As soon as these words came out, the court was full of discussion again.
Nali knelt on the ground and preached loudly: "Tian Khan, he has confessed his guilt! Please also ask Tian Khan to punish this thief!"
The envoy from Qiuci cried, his eyes red, and he complained loudly.
Zhang Yang saluted Li Shimin, "The attack on Gaochang was my order, and the war was the decision of Gaochang garrison general Adalan and all the Gaochang soldiers. Fifty thousand soldiers and hundreds of generals gave the results together. They think Gaochang can be won."
"Furthermore, after taking Kucha, the Gaochang people took away all the strong laborers, and did not harm women and children, nor did they kill civilians in Kucha. This is the greatest mercy for a war."
"If launching a war is wrong, I dare to ask the envoy from Qiuci, have you never thought of uniting with the forces of the Western Regions or uniting with the Western Turks to attack Gaochang? It seems to me that this idea has been in your minds hundreds of times."
