When Zhang Yue left the room, his expression was as usual.
Coming to see Jiefu today has achieved your goal. Being proactive in the officialdom is everything. Put down your dignity appropriately and go for the goal you want. No one will laugh at you.
Anyway, the conditions have been given, and it’s Jiefu’s business to agree or not.
If you agree, you will go back to the northwest and work as a firefighter. If you don't agree, you will wait until Jiefu retires and return to the court. Then we will see who will rule the world?
When Zhang Yue walked out, Wang Yu, Lu Huiqing, and Zeng Bu were also at the side of the hall. They were all observing Zhang Yue's expression, wondering how the negotiation with Wang Anshi was going.
Seeing Zhang Yue's calm and calm look, it was difficult to guess the outcome.
"Save it!" Lu Huiqing smiled and saluted with his hands in hand.
For Lu Huiqing, of course she hoped that Zhang Yue could go to Xihe immediately and turn down the position of Hanlin bachelor. By the time his opponent Cong Xihe returned to the court, he would not be able to catch up with her in terms of flattery, and it would even depend on his own face.
From ancient times to the present, people who are around the emperor have been able to get promoted the fastest, so today, he can get what he wants even though he has lost a favor.
Zhang Yue saw that it was Lu Huiqing who returned the greeting and said, "Ji Fu didn't want to meet you here."
Lu Huiqing smiled and said, "Yes, I just heard that Du Zhi had a talk with my husband. I think it will be of great use. I wish my brother a great future."
When Wang Yu saw Lu Huiqing coming up to get close to Zhang Yue, he felt that this person was disgusting. He was so jealous in his heart, but he looked like a brother. How could he be so fake?
Wang Yu couldn't see Lu Huiqing being like this the most, so he directly interrupted the other party and stepped forward and asked: "Scholar Zhang, do you know that a good opportunity should never be missed, and it will never come back again."
Wang Yu's meaning is obvious. Wang Anshi and his son will never compromise. Negotiations like Zhang Yue's are of no use at all. Let him recognize the situation early.
Zhang Yue said: "Thank you Yuanze for your kindness, I will save it."
On the side, Zeng Bu was blustering: "Duzhi keeps saying that he is the righteousness of the world, but there is no room for a prince. How can he be the Zhang Duzhi whom Zeng knows?"
Zeng Bu suddenly reprimanded Zhang Yue, making Zhang Yue laugh in his heart.
The two had a good friendship before, after all, Zeng Gong was there, but their good friendship was still not worth Zeng Bu's loyalty to Wang Anshi, and today he came to accuse him.
He truly deserves to be Wang Anshi's top thug.
Zhang Yue was angry at the bottom of his heart. No friendship could compare to interests and factions. He was forcing people to fight hand to hand!
Zhang Yue responded word by word: "Zixuan, remember when you came here, I told you that those who work in the library should read the classics and history thoroughly. What are the classics and what is the history? The classics are established principles, while history is about It is unwise for you to blame me for being reasonable but not to mention the differences between me and Wang Zichun in the past."
Zeng Bu wanted to argue, but Lu Huiqing said: "Come on, Zixuan, please don't say a word! I believe that Du Zhici's position as a bachelor is a noble and upright act, which is admired by the whole world. He must have considered this move now."
"Ji Fu, I'm trying to save him, I have good intentions..." Zeng Bu was a little anxious.
Wang Yu stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "Forget it Zixuan, we've said it all, and there's nothing we can do if Du doesn't want to listen! Goodbye!"
"Goodbye!" Zhang Yue cupped his hands and walked away.
Zeng Bu and Wang Yu both watched Zhang Yue leave with cold eyes, while Lu Huiqing looked solemn but felt happy in his heart. He looked at Zeng Bu and thought that after Zhang Duzhi left in anger, Zeng Zixuan was the only opponent in the court. .
…
When Zhang Yue got on the carriage and returned home, he felt a little angry in his heart.
I was willing to be a dog for you at the beginning, but you were unwilling and were afraid that I would bite you in turn. It was you who forced me to become a dragon. Using the words of a cross talk master can slightly describe Zhang Yue's mood at the moment.
However, he knew that because of the name of Niao Xianggong, if Wang Anshi was really forced, then everyone would lose.
After Zhang Yue returned to his mansion, he saw several luxurious carriages and horses parked outside his door, and dozens of followers standing by the road.
Zhang Yue looked at it and thought to himself, this is the prime minister's guard of honor. Who is coming to his home?
"Master, Mr. Han is here!"
Zhang Yue was overjoyed when he heard this. It turned out to be Han Jiang.
When will Han Jiang return to Beijing quietly?
Zhang Yue returned to the hall and saw Zhang Shi, Zhang Zhi and others standing respectfully in the hall, while Han Jiang was sitting high in the middle talking to his two children, with a smile on his face.
When Han Jiang saw Zhang Yue coming back, he smiled and said to Zhang Yue, "Young Master is so quick-thinking and smart. He is truly amazing!"
Zhang Yue was happy in his heart when he heard this, but he said on his face: "Mr. Han, please don't exaggerate me, lest you become arrogant in the future."
Zhang Yue asked his mother-in-law to take the two children and leave first. Han Jiang said to Zhang Yue, "Young Master is not engaged yet!"
Zhang Yue said: "We haven't discussed marriage yet, but we want him to study and make progress first."
Han Jiang smiled and said, "That's right. If he wins the top prize one day, you can sit down and raise the price. I won't allow this. How about I arrange a marriage with you first?"
Zhang Yue was shocked. His son was still in school and he had no intention of discussing marriage so early.
But now that he is his disciple, it is really hard to recommend him, but there are not many people in the world who can ask Han Jiang to propose marriage to him, but there are not many people who can match him, but I don't know which husband is so kind.
Before Zhang Yue could answer, Han Jiang smiled and said, "It's just a joke, don't take it seriously."
Zhang Yue breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Mr. Han really knows how to joke. To be honest, our Zhang family was originally from a poor family. It's okay for my daughter-in-law to marry from a small family, no extravagant family background."
Zhang Shi and Zhang Zhi on the side also laughed.
Han Jiang added: "You Zhang family is really full of talents. When we were in Qingzhou, Zizheng helped me a lot. If I hadn't been the prime minister, I would have supported him well."
Zhang Zhi said humbly: "Mr. Han is too generous."
Zhang Yue said: "Zizheng is now a storyteller for Chongzheng Palace, and he is also a beautiful official."
Han Jiang shook his head and said: "It's too low. It's too low. Jiefu can't recognize talents."
From this sentence, Zhang Yue could hear Han Jiang's slight resentment towards Wang Anshi.
From being the closest partners to parting ways, there were also some grievances and resentments between Han Jiang and Wang Anshi.
Zhang Zhi immediately retreated when he saw the opportunity. Zhang Yue asked: "Han Gong's sudden return to Beijing is really beyond the official's expectation."
Han Jiang said: "The officials suddenly issued a decree to summon me to interrogate me about Khitan affairs."
Zhang Yue knew that there had been minor frictions on the border between Khitan and Song Dynasty recently.
Han Jiang smiled slightly and said: "It only took me half the time to reach the capital. Can you tell me whether it was beyond everyone's expectations?"
Zhang Yue calculated that the date was exactly the edict issued by the emperor when he resigned as a Hanlin scholar for the last time.
Compared with another historical time and space, Han Jiang did not experience the Qingzhou Mutiny, so his status in the eyes of the officials has also improved. Now the officials are somewhat dissatisfied with Wang Anshi, so they summoned Han Jiang back to Beijing...
Zhang Yue asked: "Your Majesty summoned Han Gong back to Beijing not just to inquire about Khitan state affairs, but for other purposes?"
Han Jiang had already met the official and asked, "How about you give me a guess?"
Zhang Yue said: "Did the empress dowagers of the two palaces recommend Mr. Han in front of the officials?"
Han Jiang asked back: "Could it be that the Queen Mothers of the two palaces also recommended you?"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
