Gao Zhang glanced at these two people. Although he knew that these two people had good intentions, the problem was that he didn't need them now.
"Thank you both for your kindness. I am here today to select the governor of Suzhou."
Yang Xiong smiled slightly awkwardly, but his eager attitude remained unchanged.
"I see. Could it be that this Zhang Shuye is the one you have chosen for the number one spot?"
"Presumably this Zhang Shuye must also be a rare talent."
"The Number One Scholar is really cautious, otherwise he would not come to our Imperial City Department to check his details in person."
Seeing how smoothly these two were able to adapt to the wind, Gao Zhang naturally smiled at their kind words.
He encouraged and praised these two people for the affairs they were now responsible for, and then left the Imperial City Department unsteadily.
After sending Gao Zhang away, Yang Douzhi quickly returned to the house, and he and Zhao Abban carefully reviewed the information about Zhang Shuye.
I have to admit that this Zhang is really a talented man with both civil and military skills.
"Sure enough, those who can enter the Dharma Eyes of the Number One Scholar are not ordinary people."
"But during this period, Zhang Shuye offended Prime Minister Cai a bit..."
"If the No. 1 Scholar recommends it, will it cause a conflict with Prime Minister Cai..."
Zhao Yaban's expression looked a little solemn. Cai Xiang had been accumulating power for a long time. He wanted to mess with people. Who could stop him?
Although the Number One Scholar is very impressive, after all, he has only been in office for too short a time, and his qualifications and prestige are far inferior to those of his counterpart.
"So what?" Yang Xiong showed a meaningful smile.
"Xiang Cai will definitely not let this person go. Unfortunately, he will definitely be a step later."
"I know what you mean..."
Zhao Yaban looked towards Yang Xiong and saw Yang Douzhi showing a sly smile.
"Just wait here, our family has to go to the palace."
Zhao Abban watched helplessly as Yang Douzhi picked up the wooden box containing Zhang Shuye and strode out of the house.
Looking at this scene, Zhao Abban's expression looked so complicated and angry.
I couldn't help but glance at my crotch again, and let out a long sigh, alas, after all, it's better to say that it's easier for the eunuch to enter the palace as soon as he enters the palace.

After Gao Zhang stepped into the carriage and drove some distance away, he wanted to stop the carriage to check the situation.
In the end, he did not do so, but let the carriage continue to move forward.
I began to think that I should also meet, chat, and build relationships with those Jiangnan colleagues who were arriving in Bianliang, Tokyo one after another.
Although when each of them first arrived in Bianliang, Tokyo, Gao Zhang would take the time to personally pick up Feng Xichen.
It really made these generals feel a little flattered. After all, Gao Zhang was now a dignified third-rank Hanlin.
Even if he is a wild dog in Tokyo, everyone who has heard the name of this prodigy champion will recognize that he has the qualifications to be a prime minister.
However, such a big shot was so affectionate to their group of Ziqiu Ba, which really moved these people.
After thinking about the operation today, Gao Zhang ordered Fu'an to distribute the invitations.
Tomorrow I will prepare a banquet for all my relatives and friends who have returned from the south of the Yangtze River at Fanlou, the top restaurant in Bianliang, Tokyo.
This naturally includes General Liu Fa Liu, whom he admires very much.
Although we didn't get along for a long time, Gao Zhang still relied on his eloquent mouth and extraordinary emotional intelligence.
Liu Fa, who was relatively clumsy and tongue-tied, admired him very much and made this prodigy champion, who was about the same age as his son, a confidant.
Even after Liu Fa returned to Tokyo, he still exchanged letters with Gao Zhang.
Networks of people, relationships, and interests are all what Gao Zhang is currently working hard to weave and build.
Unknowingly, I can be considered to have some contacts and connections.
However, I still rely more on my beloved Master. Only by relying on him can I work hard to achieve primitive accumulation.
These days are indeed not a good time to see the Master. However, not going to see the Master does not mean that one cannot help the Master.
It's just that Cai Jing is not so easy to convince. Why can I bypass the master and persuade Cai Jing to surrender?
This is a very difficult problem, but in Gao Zhang's view, there will definitely be a solution to everything. It just depends on whether he has found any clues.
Well, if I have a chance in the past two days, I will chat with Cai Laoliu and Tong Zhisheng to see if I can find inspiration from this pair of outstanding Crouching Dragon and Phoenix chicks.
#####
"Godfather, how are the officials feeling these days?"
With a flattering smile on his face, Yang Xiong bowed to his godfather Yang Jian and asked quietly.
"It's okay, that's all."
Yang Jian thought that after several days of fierce confrontations with the ministers, he had not gone to court for the past two days, and stayed in the royal study to paint Xiaotian's official residence like a salted fish.
I don’t even know how to describe it. You could say that the officialdom is in ruins, but he is still unyielding and must get rid of those three secretaries.
You could say that he has the courage to do his job, but he still lives in the royal study, either working as a salted fish or painting dogs...
Seeing his godfather's extremely complicated expression, Yang Xiong, who knew some of the secrets of the official family from his godfather, also had his eyelids twitching wildly.
"Godfather, today the number one scholar came to the Imperial City Department to inquire about a minister's situation."
"You also know what our Imperial City Division does, and the child asked about the Number One Scholar..."
After hearing this explanation from his godson Yang Xiong, Yang Jian couldn't help but smile with relief.
"You have done a good job in this matter. Come with us to meet the official. Well, please wait outside the study first. You can come in as soon as I let you in."
#####
Yang Jian slowly entered the imperial study. At this moment, the official was splashing ink energetically, and the model he was painting was Xiaotian.
At this moment, he was lying on a short table, his head raised high, motionless, like a stone sculpture.
Just when Yang Jian came in, he slowly shook his tail a few times, and then continued to maintain his strong model posture.
Looking at this spiritual roaring sky, Yang Jian really didn't know how to praise it except silently reciting three sixes in his heart.
Guan Jia glanced at Yang Jian and continued to immerse himself in artistic creation. When he has inspiration, he must create. This is the sign that an artist can reach the peak of maturity.
After half an hour, official Zhao Ji finally completed this sketch of a roaring sky and lying on a rock.
Looking at the painting with satisfaction, the official smiled happily and then put down the brush in his hand.
After Yang Jian quickly praised the official's artistic creation several times, he whispered that the Imperial City Secretary knew that Yang Xiong was waiting outside.
I am here to report matters related to Zhuangyuan Gong.
As soon as these words came out, official Zhao Ji's expression suddenly sank, he glared at Yang Jian and shouted.
"Didn't I tell you before that you should tell me about Xiao Gao as soon as possible no matter what happens?"
"..."
