Five hundred and thirty-one chapters Lu family proposes marriage
Zhang Yue listened to the implication of the official's words. He was quite dissatisfied with what Sima Guang and others said today, which disappointed him so much that even ministers like Han Qi and Wen Yanbo were opposed to my recapture of Suizhou.
Zhang Yue is the only one who supports me.
This is the emperor's trust in himself.
But Zhang Yue thought that he could not follow the emperor's instructions. Could it be that other ministers did not understand the emperor, but he was the only one who understood him?
It would be very bad to leave such an impression on the emperor or the ministers of the court, just like Emperor Pua.
From the first day I became a Sutra Yanguan, my position for myself was not to be the emperor's teacher, not to serve as a lecturer, but to hold the Sutra.
The so-called practice of scriptures means having one's own rules. Unlike Lu Huiqing, who relied on the emperor and only talked about what the emperor wanted to hear, nor like Wang Tao, who regarded himself as the emperor's teacher and even dared to scold him.
Zhang Yue said: "Your Majesty has misunderstood. It's not about the ministers' unwillingness, but whether they can."
"For example, if Your Majesty wants to recover Suizhou, and you ask your ministers whether you should do it or not, they will say that you should recover it. If you ask whether Suizhou can be recovered at this time, it is because you are unwilling to do so. Therefore, your Majesty, please understand the difficulties of your ministers."
The official said: "Yes, the minister is cautious. But this matter is extremely difficult, and I have to do it."
Zhang Yue understood that the officials were determined to capture Suizhou and would even go to war with Xixia.
Zhang Yue continued: "Now that the country is empty, the imperial court is simply unable to fight a war with Xixia, so it is still necessary to enrich the country and strengthen its army. Before this, it was indeed difficult to fight a war with Xixia."
"Therefore, I ask your Majesty to first seek talents and practice the way of enriching the country and strengthening the army. This is the first step in governing the country!"
After listening to Zhang Yue's words, the official thought for a moment and said: "Yes, I am indeed too eager to seek treatment. I can't wait to... But how can I seek the way to enrich the country and strengthen the army?"
"The ministers only want me to keep the affairs of state in peace. How is this different from Huang Lao's way in the early Han Dynasty? Does Zhang Qing think this is feasible?"
Zhang Yue said: "Of course it's not feasible. At this time and that time, the world had just returned to peace after wars in the early Han Dynasty. Therefore, recuperation and recuperation were the most important, and Huang Lao's theory was the right way. But the country has been in peace for more than a hundred years, so what's the point?
Scenery of the Early Han Dynasty."
The official nodded and said, "That's true, but where can I find ministers who can govern the country and bring peace to the country?"
The officials thought to themselves that Wang Anshi, whom Zhang Yue recommended before, knew Jiangning Mansion and was unwilling to come to Beijing. What was the reason for this?
"Wang Anshi refuses to come to Beijing, why do you think it is?"
Zhang Yue knew why Wang Anshi refused to come.
However, Zhang Yue would not reveal the matter, but said: "Your Majesty must hire a talent like Wang Anshi with integrity and sincerity."
The official nodded when he heard this and said, "I understand."
"I plan to summon Xue Xiang and Wang Shao to Beijing together first. I want to see if the Wang Shao recommended by Zhang Qing is really talented."
When Zhang Yue heard this, he knew that his recommendation had already had an effect, and he immediately withdrew happily.
When Zhang Yue walked out of the palace, he met Wang Tao by chance.
Wang Tao paused slightly and stared at himself, while Zhang Yue paid Wang Tao the courtesy of a lower official and then left calmly.
Wang Tao turned around and looked at Zhang Yue in the palace and thought to himself, "This man is dissatisfied with me in his heart, but his face doesn't show it at all. It seems that he should be sent away from the official family as soon as possible."
Zhang Yue walked back to Tianzhang Pavilion from the palace.
But he saw Lu Gongzhu, a Hanlin scholar, sitting in the pavilion.
Zhang Yue had a headache when he saw Lu Gongzhu. This was the third time that Lu Gongzhu took the initiative to chat with him since Zhang Zhi and later.
When Zhang Yue saw Lu Gongzhu, he immediately paid homage to him and said, "Xia Guan, Zhang Yue has met Nei Han."
Mr. Lu motioned for Zhang Yue to sit down, and they sat across the table from each other.
Lu Gong wrote: "Back then, I was promoted to Emperor Renzong and served as a minister of Tianzhang, so I ended up here..."
Lu Gongzu first talked about the past, Zhang Yue could only listen, and then added a sentence or two just right.
At this time, Lu Gong said: "Yes, my nephew was in high school that day and I didn't go there. I must blame him for that."
Zhang Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. You and I have talked about this eight hundred times and finally got to the point.
Zhang Yue then said: "Nei Han's words are serious. Brother Ji Chang is already in full glory when he arrives."
Lu Gongzhu waved his hand and said: "My uncle is the number one scholar and my nephew is the provincial governor. This kind of thing is unprecedented in this dynasty. It's a pity that I can't come to congratulate you."
"I wonder what the official position is for my nephew Shi Brown?"
Zhang Yue said: "After I was released from prison, I served as an observation and promotion official in Yunzhou."
Shi Brown, the number one scholar, was originally a Jiedu judge, but there were too many redundant officials this year, and there was no palace examination, so he was promoted to an observation and recommendation judge.
Lu Gong said: "Very good, this is finally an official career, but when I go to Yunzhou, do I have a family and a small child to accompany me?"
Zhang Yue said: "Why do you come from a young family? My nephew hasn't married yet."
Lu Gong wrote: "The dignified Sheng Yuan actually did not marry a wife... I must be spoiled for choice."
Zhang Yue said: "I haven't, to be honest, there have been too many people proposing marriage before. My brother and sister-in-law are also afraid of offending others, so they want to wait until my nephew returns to Beijing after two years of serving as an official before making any plans."
Lu Gong wrote: "Although there are many people proposing marriage, none of them are satisfied now. But is it like this?"
Zhang Yue said hurriedly: "That's not what I said. I really want to wait two years before discussing the marriage."
Lu Gong wrote: "Zhang Zhengyan, I have two daughters, both of whom are legitimate children. The eldest daughter is already married, and there is another daughter waiting to be married. I know that my nephew is not married."
After Zhang Yue learned that Zhang Zhi was a Jinshi, Wu Chong and Lu Xiji both approached him and told him that Lu Gongzhu intended to marry Zhang Zhi.
The top official families in the Song Dynasty were the Lu family and the Han family.
There is a saying in the court that if all the scholars in the world do not come from Han, they will come from Lu.
Zhang Yue heard that Lu Gongzhu proposed to marry him, and he would be proud of you. However, in order not to offend anyone, he postponed his nephew's marriage for two years in advance.
After two years of slowly screening, we found a suitable in-law for Zhang Zhi.
Therefore, even his father-in-law and Lu Xiji temporarily rejected the proposal, but who knew that Lu Gongzhu would have the nerve to propose marriage to him personally.
There have never been such rules in this marriage discussion.
The daughter's family always has to act as if they are not worried about getting married, so the father-in-laws are also very aloof, waiting for all kinds of sons-in-law to come to propose marriage.
What's more, what is Mr. Lu's identity?
He actually went into battle to negotiate with him in person, which really gave the Zhang family a lot of face.
"The Lu family is such a prestigious family, how dare we...reach so high a level!"
Lu Gong said: "Sanlang is out of touch when he says this."
Zhang Yue did not agree with Lu Gongzu in court, but he was very moved. He said, if Zhang Zhi marries Lu Gongzu's daughter, it will definitely be a leverage in the future career with such a father-in-law to support him.
But Zhang Yue also wanted to see Zhang Zhizhong as his son-in-law, and Han Wei also revealed to him that Wang Anshi seemed to intend to recruit Zhang Zhi as his son-in-law.
However, this was only passed down from generation to generation by Han Wei, and he had never heard Wang Anshi make any promise. Although he was not in Bianjing, there was no letter or mention of it.
How to count like this?
Zhang Yue and Han Wei confessed that there were many people asking for marriage now, and they wanted to wait until two years before discussing marriage. After that, there was no news from Wang Anshi.
