"Zhang Taichang!"
"Zhang Taichang!"
"Zhang Taichang!"
Everyone stood up and saluted Zhang Yue to say hello.
Three years ago, Taiping Xingguo Temple collected a story. At that time, they were all scholars who had just taken off their robes, and they had the same smug atmosphere as when Fang Zhong was a Jinshi. But now, the meaning of goodbye is much more utilitarian.
The youthful feeling when we first met each other has faded away. Now we are talking more familiarly, and the smiles on our faces are no longer stiff, but much more natural.
Those who greeted them in front were Chen Mu and Wang Zhichen, who were the second-ranked students in that subject.
He served as a local official for three years, and now he has been moved to the capital.
"Brother Chen, Brother Wang, you're fine!" Zhang Yue returned the greeting.
After that, everyone pushed Zhang Yue to take the seat. Zhang Yue couldn't push him, so he sat at the top. When they first worshiped Huang Jia, everyone regarded Nian as their elder. They were afraid that in the future someone would become a senior official and would not agree with Nian.
At that time, everyone was still a scholar, but now as an official, all etiquette still follows official rules. .
If Zhang Yueruo insists on not taking the seat, he will be scolded for being hypocritical.
Zhang Yue took the seat, and on his left and right were Chen Mu, Wang Zhichen, and Han Zhongyan. Many of them in the same year had gone to stand guard at the Political Affairs Hall and initiated the impeachment of Ren Shouzhong.
People of the same age who have been there are now getting good jobs under the arrangement of some mysterious force.
It was a tacit exchange of sorts.
Except for those who became officials for the first time, half of the others in the same year got married when they were promoted to Jinshi. Except for some who caught their sons-in-law under the rankings, several of them stopped their wives and remarried. These things were all a big deal, but they were all suppressed in the end. Some of them were even more egregious than Wang Kui. Here he hid his wife who had already given birth to children for him without telling him, and there he married an official. woman.
These things are all over.
No wonder it is said that for every person who is righteous and slaughters a dog, the person who is unfaithful is a scholar.
This is not unreasonable.
Here is a rich girl from an official family, and over there is a yellow-faced woman who was married when she was very poor. How to choose?
Everything in the drama is beautified, and most human nature cannot stand the test.
Zhang Yue actually felt that there was logic behind this sentence, but it was not used in this way.
Most scholars are not good at managing interpersonal relationships, but they can often gain recognition from others. It seemed that I was focused on studying and had never thought about making any friends, but people kept coming to know me, and even took the initiative to get to know me.
Especially after you become famous, you lose your original intention.
Therefore, in Zhang Yue's eyes, the friends we met sincerely were those we met when we were studying.
As for getting a wife, again, if you think you will dislike her in the future, then study hard and don't accept other people's feelings when you are down. If you don't dislike them, then treat them well after you become successful and famous.
After everyone sat down, Qing Yi continued to sing and dance in the hall.
Tsing Yi is wearing a lotus leaf skirt, and a pair of water sleeves in her hands are shaking frequently, like flowing clouds and flowing water. Tsing Yi's small feet move very lightly in the hall, making people think of the way Yao Niang stood up and danced on the lotus platform in Empress Li's palace.
Many people were dazzled by it. They had just become officials and got married. Many people had already had several wives and concubines, and they couldn't help but be attracted by this graceful dancing girl in Tsing Yi.
Zhang Yue also felt that the Qing Yi's movements were extremely graceful, and his waist was swaying gently like a willow, making him slender and graceful.
As the saying goes, "Lonely in the vast cold, the sleeves are loosened, and the beauty in the world is Qing Yi." Zhang Yue couldn't help but think of this.
When Zhang Yue saw this, he saw Qing Yi giving him a wink. Then Qing Yi smiled softly and swayed, and lotus blossoms bloomed under her dancing boots step by step.
Looking and looking between them seems to be affectionate, but also seems to be ruthless.
Han Zhongyan snickered and said to Zhang Yue in a low voice: "Zhang Lang, Zhang Lang, this Qing Yi has taken a liking to you."
Zhang Yue glanced at Han Zhongyan and said, "I don't dare, I don't dare, my wife is very powerful."
Han Zhongyan laughed in his heart, but said on his face: "Let's face it, there are many ways for men to cheat. What matters is whether you have the courage."
Zhang Yue said: "That's all, my wife is more powerful than the roundworms in my belly. It's no use having courage."
Han Zhongyan couldn't help but feel regretful when he heard this.
There are two large tables arranged in this pavilion, but the hall where Qing Yi sings and dances is very spacious. People of the same age all encourage each other to drink, and it is often the case that the seats are always full of guests and the glasses are never empty.
Wang Zhichen and Zhang Yue also gradually became familiar with each other. Zhang Yue remembered that the other party was somewhat hostile to him at first, but now he also completely surrendered to power.
Now that he is the best in the same year, it is too stupid for the other party to still think about confrontation instead of cooperation.
Wang Zhichen suddenly confessed something to himself. It turned out that when Wang Yaochen was still alive, his family had intended to discuss marriage with the Wu family.
Zhang Yue understood as soon as he heard this. Given Wang Zhichen's age, Wang Yaochen was probably seeking to marry the Seventeenth Mother on behalf of the Wang family. But after Wang Yaochen's death, the Wang family fell into decline, so the matter was forgotten.
Wang Zhichen confessed this matter to himself, obviously to gain his trust.
Zhang Yue continued to listen to his words and watch his actions.
Wang Zhichen said: "Brother Zhang, I want your help with something..."
Zhang Yue thought to himself, this is too fast.
Zhang Yue said: "This is not the place to talk. Come to the exchange office after noon tomorrow."
Wang Zhichen was overjoyed and said, "Thank you very much for saving me."
Soon someone from the same year came up to toast.
Han Zhongyan, Chen Mu, and Wang Zhichen are all officials in the capital, and they can be considered to be able to talk to Zhang Yue now. The rest are all candidates, and they are running around for one thing only, which is to change their official positions in the future.
To select a person to change his official position to a Jingguan, five officials must be recommended, one of whom is the supervisor. This recommendation is called Jingqi, and the five recommendations are called Wuqi. The collection of five shapes is called Hejian.
For a low-status and humble official from a poor family, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to win the title of Five-Level Master.
Therefore, when it comes to selecting people, most people will be trapped in a sea of choices.
What happened to the sea selection? You’ll know after you go to Liuneiquan and experience it.
Zhang Yue was qualified for recommendation, and they had a good relationship. They didn't even need Zhang Yue's recommendation. They said that they were the same year as Zhang Yue, which would also help their career.
But they all know that the gap with Zhang Yue is getting wider and wider now.
Before, everyone could barely sit on equal footing, but now, except for Han, Chen, and Wang, they had to show the respect to their subordinates in the officialdom when facing Zhang Yue.
The edges and corners have been smoothed off during release. They have been smoothed out after three years of serving as an official, or for most people, less than one year.
Saying they are of the same year is to give you face. Officialdom is always about superiority and inferiority, with a clear distinction between superiority and inferiority.
However, there are also people who care about face. When toasting in front of Zhang Yue, they always drink a large glass. Others can't compare to you, Zhang Yue. Isn't your drinking capacity good enough?
Halfway through the banquet, Zhang Yue went to change his clothes. Han Zhongyan also said: "I have prepared gifts for the same year. I will give them to you and me when the time comes. Do you want to take a look?"
Zhang Yue looked at Han Zhongyan and said, "To overthrow Ren Shouzhong, you and I only relied on our peers. I'll give you the money!"
Han Zhongyan laughed and scolded: "What difference do we have between you and me? Don't blame me for falling out with you if we talk any more!"
Zhang Yue looked at the generous gifts prepared by Han Zhongyan and couldn't help but thought, this is indeed a yameni, so thoughtful.
