Everyone present understood that without so many previous examples of vassal kings, King Lu would not have been able to agree so readily to spend money and food to defend Ziyang City.
Even so, King Lu was reluctant to spend too much money and food.
"Zhang Changshi has been in Prince Lu's Mansion for so many years. Is there any better way?" The Yanzhou magistrate looked at Zhang Shuocheng hopefully.
I hope that I can get more money and food from Prince Lu's Palace through the chief historian of Prince Lu's Palace in front of me.
Zhang Shuocheng naturally understood what Yanzhou Magistrate meant, and immediately shook his head and said: "Since His Highness King Lu has said the amount of money and food, His Highness King Lu will not change it easily. I don't have any better way in this regard."
As soon as these words were spoken, the Yanzhou magistrate looked disappointed.
He really wanted to get enough money and food from Prince Lu's Mansion to defend Ziyang City. Whoever made Prince Lu's Mansion in Ziyang City the richest.
"However, I do have a way, which may be able to solve the current shortage of money and food in the city." Zhang Shuocheng gave Yanzhou officials hope.
The prefect of Yanzhou asked hurriedly: "If Zhang Changshi can solve this matter, it will be a great help to me. After the tiger thieves retreat, I will definitely remember Zhang Changshi's kindness this time."
However, these words sounded like farts to Zhang Shuocheng's ears.
We all hang out in the officialdom. Anyone who takes such flattery and flattery seriously is a fool.
"I have memorized these words of Futai. On the day when I come to ask for help, Futai cannot forget before today." Even though he knew the empty promise of the Yanzhou magistrate, Zhang Shuocheng still argued with him.
The magistrate of Yanzhou stroked his beard and said, "Don't worry, Zhang Changshi. I always keep my promises. So if you have any good solutions to solve the current worries about nourishing Yang, Zhang Changshi, please tell me directly."
The prefect of Yanzhou was very polite to those who could resolve the current crisis in Ziyang City.
"I'm out of office. Although I'm not in the magistrate's office, I'm only working as a historian in Prince Lu's Mansion. But Prince Lu's Mansion is also in Ziyang City. I also have the responsibility to maintain Ziyang City." Zhang Shuocheng said with a smile, not in a hurry. Come up with a solution to the shortage of money and food in Ziyang City.
At this time, Yanzhou Tongzhi on the side couldn't help but said: "Zhang Changshi, please stop being polite, the army of tiger thieves is right under your nose."
"Look at my brain, I almost made a mistake." Zhang Shuocheng patted his forehead lightly with his hand, as if he was apologizing in front of everyone.
But there was still no direct solution.
At this time, the prefect of Yanzhou understood that he was seeking benefits, and said: "Zhang Changshi has some ideas, but it doesn't matter. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse."
"Haha, where is the mansion? As a member of Ziyang City, I also have the responsibility to defend Ziyang City." Zhang Shuocheng smiled and said some boring words.
If you didn't see the smile on his face, the prefect of Yanzhou would definitely believe that he was telling the truth.
The prefect of Yanzhou understood that it was time to negotiate terms, so he said: "I also believe that Zhang Changshi is sincerely doing good for Ziyang City, but he cannot let the meritorious people feel cold."
"I heard that Mr. Li Ge is the master of the mansion?" Zhang Shuocheng asked.
The prefect of Yanzhou understood what Zhang Shuocheng meant and immediately said: "Li Ge always loves talents. If Zhang Changshi is willing, I can introduce him to Zhang Changshi."…
[It has been running stably for many years. It is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, and is used by old bookworms, huanyuan.]
"Then thank you Futai." Zhang Shuocheng had a smile on his face.
As the chief historian of the palace, without good support, he will be confined to the palace for most of his life. Even if he leaves the palace one day, it will be difficult for him to be highly valued by the court.
The future is not as good as the local state capital.
But if you can get on the boat of the cabinet minister and have a background, you may not be able to break away from the shackles of the palace and become a governor in the future.
The magistrate of Yanzhou said with a smile: "Zhang Changshi has gone abroad. We are all officials in Yanzhou, so we should support each other."
"What Fu Tai said makes me ashamed." Zhang Shuocheng raised his hand and gently wiped the non-existent sweat beads on his forehead.
, and immediately said, "There is not only Prince Lu's Mansion in Ziyang City, but now His Highness Prince Lu has taken the lead in donating money and food to defend the city. Others in Ziyang City should follow His Highness Prince Lu's example."
As the words fell, everyone present looked at Kong Yinjing, who had been silent.
There were more than one family of gentry in Ziyang City. Apart from the Palace of Prince Lu, the Kong family of Qufu was naturally the most respected.
As a member of a thousand-year-old family, the Kong family is even richer than Prince Lu's family.
Kong Yinjing, who was being stared at by so many people, felt furious and said in his mouth: "Students can't make the final decision on such a big matter. Let the students go back and report to Duke Yan first."
He was also not stupid and naturally understood that these Yanzhou officials were eyeing the Kong family.
"Well, I should go back." The governor of Yanzhou nodded lightly.
He didn't have much respect for the Kong family in front of him.
Despite the fact that Kong Yinjing is so majestic in the eyes of outsiders, the officials of Yanzhou Prefecture all know that Kong Yinjing is no different from the outside brokers. It's just that ordinary brokers work for both sides, but Kong Yinjing only works for the Kong family. matter.
Kong Yinjing did not dare to show off in front of the Yanzhou magistrate, and said very politely: "Thank you, Mr. Futai, for your understanding. The student will rush back to Qufu now."
In his opinion, asking Kong to provide money and food to defend Ziyang City was much more difficult than asking King Lu to provide money and food.
King Lu was just King Lu of the Ming Dynasty, and the Kong family was the Kong family of all dynasties, and the Kong family of the saints who were most respected by scholars in the world.
Without the Ming Dynasty, the Kong family still exists, and changes in dynasties cannot shake the Kong family's status.
"Go!" Yanzhou Magistrate nodded.
Kong Yinjing said goodbye to the officials present one by one, then turned around and left quickly, not wanting to stay any longer.
However, just when he had taken a few steps, the prefect of Yanzhou suddenly said from behind: "Tell Duke Yansheng that we should follow the previous method and get half the money and grain as the Kong family."
After hearing this, Kong Yinjing paused for a moment and immediately returned to normal.
Zhang Shuocheng, the chief historian, watched Kong Yinjing's figure walk away little by little, then he looked back and said to the Yanzhou magistrate: "Is it too much to give 50% to the Kong family?"
After giving 50% to the Kong family, part of the remaining 50% will be spent on the soldiers and generals guarding the city, and the rest will be shared among the officials of Yanzhou Prefecture.
In Zhang Shuocheng's view, Kong received benefits without paying anything, and the majority of the benefits should fall on the officials of Yanzhou Prefecture.
"Without Kong's intervention, this matter could not have been accomplished." The prefect of Yanzhou said to Zhang Shuocheng.
As the magistrate of Yanzhou, he was also helpless. The Kong family's status in Yanzhou was too high, and it was far more threatening to Yanzhou officials than Prince Lu's palace.
If you offend the Prince of Lu, you can still get a good reputation as someone who is not afraid of the feudal kings, but if you offend the Kong family, you may end up not respecting the saints and being ostracized by the scholars.
When it comes to the black gauze hat on the head, I naturally have a strong balance in my mind. .
