In the Yiying Hall, Zhang Zhiyu was giving a lecture to the official storyteller, and Wang Yu was accompanying Zhang Zhi to give the lecture.
At least two people are required to hold a banquet for officials to tell scriptures, and they are also accompanied by ministers and ministers. Therefore, even though he often sees officials, Zhang Zhi does not speak as he pleases.
Moreover, Wang Yu also went out of his way to tell stories together with Zhang Zhi.
Wang Yu was a very powerful person, he was familiar with all the stories in the world, and he knew all the history. So Zhang Zhi wanted to quote scriptures, and in the middle of lectures on the scriptures, he talked about his uncle in a roundabout way.
However, after Zhang Zhi tried several times and touched the boundary a little bit, he was resolved or interrupted by Wang Yu's words.
So much so that Zhang Zhi couldn't deliver a word.
In the past, Zhang Zhi would definitely have ignored it, but now that Zhang Yue was around, he was no longer that stupid young man, so he didn't force himself.
Seeing Zhang Zhi's behavior, Wang Yu didn't tell him. He thought that the official family probably didn't know the reason why Zhang Yue resigned as a bachelor.
Wang Yu had already greeted Li Xian, who had gone to Zhang Yue Mansion to deliver the edict, and told him to speak carefully.
Li Xian has already agreed to Wang Yu.
Li Xian, an old minister, knew exactly what he should and should not say in front of officials.
There was an example before. When an official asked Wang Anshi about something, Wang Anshi asked, "Where did your majesty know this matter first?"
The official asked, why do you care so much about where this matter comes from?
Wang Anshi said, "Your Majesty keeps secrets with other people, but hides himself from his ministers. Is this the way for a monarch and his ministers to confide in each other's hearts?"
The official told the truth that he learned about this matter from Li Ping.
Wang Anshi hated Li Ping deeply, impeached him, and demoted Li Ping to Baozhou.
Wang Yu felt a little more vigilant when he thought of Li Ping.
This Li Ping was also quite knowledgeable about books and scriptures, and he was regarded as a talented person among his relatives. The officials usually stayed with him to perform affairs and consult on military and state affairs, so the prime ministers were all polite to Li Ping.
When officials asked Li Ping about the Baojia method, Li Ping raised objections in private. It was Wang Anshi who learned about this matter and was later demoted.
Before Li Ping was demoted, he angrily told the officials that whenever His Majesty wanted to depose someone, Wang Anshi would protect the person and make the deposed person promoted. And Wang Anshi didn't like anyone, even if His Majesty knew that he had no fault, Wang Anshi would definitely
I will incriminate him and drive him far away, just like this.
Such words can be described as very malicious. Wang Yu still felt that even if he had to pay a high price to expel Li Ping, he would still do it.
After Li Ping was demoted, the official family and Wang Anshi were really separated.
The advantage is that relatives and ministers are more cautious when speaking to the emperor.
Therefore, Wang Yu was not afraid that Li Xian would send messages to the officials privately, but he was afraid that there would be other channels to express his opinions.
After leaving the sutra banquet, Wang Yu contacted an eunuch who was familiar with the situation.
Wang Anshi rarely contacted and communicated with the eunuchs, and Wang Yu was the one who advocated these matters. For example, the inner palace sent by the officials to inquire about the Qingmiao method knew that Zhang Ruoshui and the guard Lan Yuanzhen were both friends of Wang Yu.
Wang Yu first confirmed that there was no suspicion among the officials, thinking that Zhang Yue repeatedly resigned from the Imperial Academy because he was only concerned about the officials' integrity.
It was not because of dissatisfaction with Wang Anshi replacing him with Wang Shao.
But this is what Wang Yu is worried about. It would be nice if the officials listened and asked Prime Minister Wang Anshi what he thought of Zhang Yue's resignation as a Hanlin scholar, but the officials said nothing and didn't ask a single relevant word.
It seems that officials are now waiting for a statement from Wang Anshi.
Wang Yu knew that Li Ping's incident could not be repeated. Zhang Yue's status in the eyes of officials was no less than that of Li Ping, so it was best not to cause a big deal.
Of course, if it really makes a big fuss, Wang Yu won't be afraid, and Wang Anshi won't even care.
But the best choice is to be able to convince Zhang Yue and prevent Li Ping's incident from happening again.
Thinking of this, Wang Yu returned to Yiying Palace and told Zhang Zhi, who was copying the lecture notes, that he would visit Zhang Yue today.
Of course Wang Yu knew that Zhang Kai, Wang Anguo, and Wang Anli had failed in persuading him, but he was fully confident about his trip.
After Zhang Zhi heard about it, he said directly: "Maybe my uncle doesn't want to see Yanei now."
Wang Yu smiled and said: "Zizheng, your uncle won't be afraid of seeing me!"
Zhang Zhi was slightly angry when he heard this: "What are you talking about?"
Wang Yu said with a smile: "Although I don't have the debate between Li Shiqi and Kuai Tong, I guarantee that my uncle will receive a bachelor's degree from the Hanlin Academy after just one word. Do you believe it or not?"
Of course Zhang Zhi didn't believe it, but seeing that no one in the world like Wang Yu was smarter than me, he said, "If you want to go, no one will stop you. I will report it for you, but I don't care whether my uncle sees you or not."
Wang Yu said with a smile: "As long as Zi Zheng is willing to inform me, I don't think your uncle will be ashamed to see me."
Wang Yu still looks confident.
Later, Zhang Zhi and Wang Yu came to Zhang's Mansion.
Zhang Zhi immediately took Wang Yu to the courtyard and saw a man wearing an old robe from a distance, sitting on a stone table and chair in the courtyard playing the piano.
Wang Yu and Zhang Yue met only a few times. His pride was not as high as his father's, so he had a high level of arrogance and few people could catch his eye.
Wang Yu thought Zhang Yue was nothing more than that at first, but after a series of events later, he discovered that this man was actually an extremely talented person, somewhere between his father's political rivals and non-political rivals.
But in front of Wang Yu, any person or force that he could not control would be classified as a political enemy, so he was even more careful with Zhang Yue.
He saw that although Zhang Yue was dressed in an old robe, his demeanor was elegant and elegant, which showed what Zhang Yue said. Originally, it should be a beautiful scene for a man to play the piano in the courtyard, but from what Wang Yu heard, Zhang Yue was playing the piano.
The technique is really insulting and destroys the sense of harmony in this scene.
When Zhang Zhi reported, Zhang Yue also looked at him. Wang Yu saluted from a distance, and at the same time he was glad that his ears had escaped the torture of the harsh sound of the piano.
Xunji Zhangzhi walked out and said angrily: "My uncle has invited me!"
Wang Yu showed an expected smile and strode into the courtyard.
Zhang Yue was also a little surprised. He usually dealt with Wang Anshi a lot, but not much with Wang Yu. Wang Yu was extremely smart, and in later generations, even Yan Shifan might not be as good as him.
"Please sit down!"
Wang Yu thanked him and sat down carelessly. Zhang Yue said with a smile: "This new piano learning may not be very popular with Ya Nei's ears."
Wang Yu nodded honestly. Not only was he talented in literature, but he was also extremely proficient in musical instruments. He also sang songs dressed as a female dancer, making it difficult to tell the difference between male and female.
Wang Yu cupped his hands and said: "Don't worry about things you are not proficient in. Of course, it's okay to do it occasionally because of your interests, but in Wang's eyes, Zhang Longtu has more important things."
Zhang Yue smiled and said: "To Zhang, there is nothing more important now than tuning the piano."
Wang Yu cupped his hands and said, "I'm here to visit your mansion today. I'm not here to compete with Long Tu on his piano skills, but because of Long Tu's official career."
"I dare to ask Long Tu, you are neither a gentleman nor a villain, are you a party to yourself?"
Wang Yu got straight to the point as soon as he came up.
Zhang Yue looked at Wang Yu and asked, "What is a gentleman and what is a villain?"
Wang Yu said seriously: "If you support the reform, you will become the party of gentlemen, and if you oppose the reform, you will become the party of villains. Can't Zhang Longtu see that besides the two, there will be a third party in the world?"
