Chapter 1,142 The way of heaven is like a bow

Chapter 1150 The way of heaven is like a bow

The officials thought after hearing this.

He was promoted to the envoy who supervised the compilation of national history and also translated and enriched scriptures. This translator and envoy also had the title of prime minister. This was the system of the Tang Dynasty. Generally, the title of minister and minister were concurrent with the title of prime minister.

However, it is generally used as a concurrent title for the historian.

Zhang Yue's official title was restored to the title of Minister of Rites, which was restored due to the defeat of Mingsha last time.

But it seems that Wang Gui is more cost-effective.

But everyone also saw that Wang Gui was old, and he had three political purposes, and he was evading responsibility for everything. Now it was Zhang Yue who really had his own opinions on everything in Zhongshu.

It is natural for officials to balance one and two with high positions and low power.

The officials were all thinking this, but they saw that Song Yongchen had already finished announcing the imperial edict. Before everyone got up, they saw Song Yongchen took out another imperial edict.

Ministers, why do you think there is still an imperial edict?

Song Yongchen smiled and said: "Prime Minister Zhang, your Majesty still has grace."

"There is still grace?" All the ministers were surprised when they heard this.

Song Yongchen took out the imperial edict, cleared his throat and continued reading.

The officials listened carefully and said, "Good guy, good guy."

The imperial edict added that Zhang Gen, the eldest son of Zhang Yue, was right and right, and was directly transferred to the special edict promotion sequence.

The second son, Zhang Cheng, was given a Jinshi background.

The officials understood that grace was here.

Although the prime ministers of the country have the habit of succeeding son-in-law, it is more difficult to succeed father and son. The only ones that can be counted are the Han and Lu families.

If the father is the prime minister and the son is a Jinshi, then even if the son is not the prime minister, his official career is quite impressive. This is like being in an aristocratic family. This is why two Han and one Lu can be called an aristocratic family.

Zhang Yue is different. Although he is said to be from the Zhang family in Pucheng, he is from a middle-income family of the Zhang family. He has not been an official for more than three generations, so he is quite far away from the aristocratic family.

When Zhang Yue heard the announcement, he actually didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Zhang Gen had been training troops on Huanqing Road for several months and thought he had achieved success. However, this time Liang Yongneng violated the boundary. After the two armies connected, Zhang Gen's troops were defeated.

Han Zhen did not report this matter, but covered it up for Zhang Gen and played it off as invincible and undefeated.

Zhang Gen also received a reward today.

After Zhang Yue received the imperial edict, he stood up slowly.

"Congratulations, congratulations to the History Museum!" Song Yongchen was the first to raise his hand.

Zhang Yue smiled in relief.

Then the somewhat old Wang Gui slowly walked over to Zhang Yue and said, "Congratulations to the Museum of History."

Wang Gui was a little sad, as the Wang family's official life was over with him. His descendants were not successful and could not become ministers. Looking back at Zhang Yue, the Zhang family had a bright future.

Zhang Yue cupped his hands to Wang Guigong and said, "Thank you Zhaowen for your guidance over the years."

All the officials looked at the scene where Wang Gui congratulated Zhang Yue. On one side was the white-haired prime minister who was old and found it difficult to even walk. He was known as the three-pronged minister. On the other side was the prime minister who was young, vigorous and energetic, leading the court to victory.

The black-haired prime minister who fought the decisive Battle of Lanzhou.

The two of them each wore purple robes and bowed to each other, as if they were in a famous painting.

Common people all know that bullying the old does not bully the young. Bullying the young will definitely lead to retribution.

What about the officials in the temple?

With Prime Minister Zhaowen who is over sixty years old and Prime Minister Shiguan who is less than forty years old, where will the trend in the court go in the future?

Everyone knows it well.

From now on, the trend will tilt in one direction.

Then Cai Que congratulated him, his expression as respectful as ever. He looked at Zhang Yue and remembered the first time they met in Taixue.

Immediately, Cai Que thought of himself again. Because of his father, Cai Que's family was poor and he once lived in a temple to study.

The monk thought he gave him too little money, stayed too long, and spoke too much. Cai Que saw a clump of bamboo outside the monk's room and immediately wrote: "There are two or three green bamboo poles in front of the window, and the cool wind blows the whole courtyard in the cold. It's often cold.

Don’t get tired of me before your eyes, turn into a dragon and go to meet the difficulties.”

??????55.??????

After Cai Que finished writing the poem, he threw away his pen and moved out of the temple overnight. After paying homage to the prime minister, he invited the monk to come to Beijing.

The monk fell to the ground in fear. Cai Que laughed and gave the man dozens of coins and said, "If it weren't for your snobbery, how would I be today?"

Cai Que and Zhang Yue had a good relationship back then because they both had the unyielding spirit of trying to make a difference even in poverty, so they sympathized with each other.

Now seeing Zhang Yue paying homage to the Prime Minister, Cai Zhen was not jealous but overjoyed and immediately dedicated the poem he had written back then to Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue laughed heartily after hearing this poem, and held Cai Que's hand with tears in his laughter.

The officials came forward to congratulate one after another, and Zhang Yue accepted them one by one. More and more officials gathered outside the political hall. Many officials were holding on to their official hats and belts and walking quickly. There were also an unknown number of people who were rushing here.

.

After they entered, they congratulated Wang Gui and Zhang Yue in turn.

This scene made Cai Jing, Cai Bian and others look envious.

Cai Jing said: "If I have such a day, I wonder if there will be a prince who is so humble and indifferent as Zhang Gong?"

Cai Bian said: "Brother, don't say anything. We should just do good deeds and not worry about the future."

Cai Jing knew that this was Feng Dao's famous saying, so he told Cai Bian: "After Feng Dao, no prime minister has ever paid homage to Zhongshu Ling. If I were the prime minister, I would definitely pay homage to Zhongshu Ling."

Cai Bian said: "Brother, if the new law is abolished in the future, do you think you and I will still have Zhang Gong to escape unscathed?"

Cai Jing was surprised: "Why do you say this?"

Cai Bian said: "Zhang Gong suddenly told me one day that his Majesty and my father-in-law put the greatest effort into the new law. He also benefited from it to regain Qingtang and defeated Dangxiang in recent years."

"But in the future, people will not suffer from the new law and people's minds will change. What will happen then?"

Cai Jingdao: "The Prime Minister thinks deeply!"

Cai Bian said: "Yes, I heard His Majesty's words, and it seems that he is also interested in reconciling the old and new parties. After the defeat of the last expedition to Xia, he also said that if Sima Guang were here, he would not suffer such a defeat."

Cai Jing heard this and said disdainfully: "What does Sima Junshi, an old man who has been hiding underground and writing books for nearly twenty years, know? It's not just the merit of Conglong back then, but his political achievements so far are not as good as one of my fingers."

Cai Jing is happy, and every official must have political achievements that others can spread.

Cai Bian reminded: "Prime Minister Zhang was informed by Your Majesty that he also followed the merits of the dragon."

Cai Jing realized that he had made a mistake and smiled and said: "You are asking me to tell you that if Sima Guang returns to the court, he will destroy the country."

Cai Bian said: "But the way of heaven is like a bow. Those who are high suppress it, and those who are low lift it."

"After so many years of reform, the new law seems to have been held high by His Majesty and Lao Taishan. Once it is let go...in the final analysis, no matter whether the new law is good or bad, there is indeed dissatisfaction among the people and the common people. This is the heart of the people and the people. It is undeniable."

Cai Jing sneered and said: "I can guarantee that if the new law is really abolished, these people will know how good the new law is."

Cai Bian said: "That's the case. But if things don't happen right before our eyes, and it hurts our skin, who would have such foresight?"

Cai Jing said: "Then what's the future path?"

Cai Bian said: "God knows!"

Cai Jing asked: "Does the Prime Minister not know?"

Cai Bian and Cai Jingtong looked at Zhang Yue who was accepting congratulations. At this moment, Wang Gui and Cai Que were sitting aside, looking at Zhang Yue silently.

Cai Jing said to Cai Bian: "Have you noticed? Zhang Zihou has not arrived today."

Cai Bian had already discovered that on the day when Wang Gui paid homage to the Minister of Literature and Zhang Yue paid homage to the Minister of History, Zhang Dun did not come. Cai Bian said: "Zhang Zihou is so trustworthy."

Cai Jingdao: "Isn't he always like this?"

Last time, Zhang Dun was angry with Wang Gui to save Su Shi, and was regarded as a thorn in Wang Gui's side. At the same time, he was also disliked by Zhang Yue because he advocated actively using troops against the party. There were many disputes between the two.
