Chapter 391: Inside and Outside
Night, Zhangfu.
Zhang Dian is a strict person, and he is naturally stern, so it is difficult to get close to his family, except for Zhang Lady, everyone else is afraid of Zhang Dian and dare not talk more in front of him.
Zhang Dian seems to be used to sitting alone in the gazebo, drinking himself, his expression is usually serious, and those who are familiar with him know that he is thinking.
Not long after, footsteps sounded outside the quiet gazebo.
Pei Yin entered the pavilion, raised his hand and said, "Teacher, then Xiao Tiancheng is out of Kaifeng." ”
Zhang Dan's face did not move, and said, "Sit." ”
Pei Yin responded, sat down opposite him, and said: "Teacher, this Xiao Tiancheng has been moving around in Kaifeng City in the past few days, and many people have been moved, and they have gone to the official's house to ask for the withdrawal of troops, so as not to anger the Liao State and start a war on two fronts. ”
Zhang Dian glanced at him and said, "What do you think?" ”
Pei Yin knew that this was the school examination, so he thought about it for a while, and said: "Teacher, the students think that the situation in front of them seems to be a complete victory for my Great Song Dynasty, but in fact it is a hidden crisis. The Xia Kingdom is not so easy to destroy, and once the Xia is destroyed, it will be completely confronted with the Liao people, the national border is too long, I am afraid that the Xia soil will not be able to hold it? Not to mention the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. ”
Zhangdun took a sip of wine? "Go on." ”
Pei Yin became more and more cautious and said, "Is it true?" What do students think? Why don't you keep the Xia Kingdom, whose national strength has been seriously weakened, and destroy Xia? The disadvantages outweigh the advantages. Also, am I fighting against this? The aim is to fight for peace on the border? Find time for change. Destroying the summer, in many ways, outweighs the losses. ”
Zhang Dian nodded slightly, and said with a rare smile: "It's good that you can see this." Is Xingqing Mansion too far away? Across the prairie? The desert is rugged and far away, and if you are not well prepared, you can't completely wipe out the summer in one fell swoop. ”
Pei Yin listened and said, "Teacher? Now the situation is a little delicate, and the Liao people seem to be doing nothing? In fact, it is imminent, if they really send troops? The one who is in a difficult situation is my Da Song. ”
Now the northern army of the Song Dynasty is almost all aimed at Western Xia? If the Liao people suddenly send troops? This side of the Great Song? It may be difficult to resist for a while, and when the troops are deployed, the north will inevitably be in trouble!
Zhang Dan's eyes jumped, and he said: "Don't worry, the reaction of the Liao people, in the deduction between the official family and us, wait and see, within five days, if the Liao people do not move, then they will not have it, and the situation is on my side of the Great Song Dynasty." ”
"Five days?"
Pei Yin muttered to himself, a little worried in his heart.
Zhang Dian glanced at the sky and said, "What's going on outside?" ”
Pei Yin's expression perked up, and said: "There is no movement on the side of the household department, the official department, and the criminal department, Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is out of Beijing, and there are more voices in the Ministry of Industry, and their main attitude is to hope that the official class will return to the dynasty." ”
"Wang Cun?"
Zhang's sword eyebrows moved, but he didn't speak.
After the Great Song Dynasty underwent last year's restructuring, the system was clear and simple, and the political affairs hall governed six ministries, and the six ministries managed the affairs of the world.
The political affairs hall is the decision-making body, and the six departments are the executive bodies, and now there are a total of eight people, which makes the six secretaries who were originally subordinate to the political affairs hall become pivotal and have a very important status.
Therefore, when any one of them speaks, the weight is extremely heavy, and countless eyes are watching.
As for the only person left in the court by the 'old party', the government and the opposition naturally paid more attention.
Zhang Duan took another sip of wine and said, "It's okay." By the way, how is the implementation of Kaifeng Prefecture's 'Fangtian Average Tax Law'? ”
Pei Yin didn't understand what Zhang Dan's 'okay' meant, paused, and followed the topic: "I am currently enthroned as a household, and it is expected to be completed before the end of the year?" ”
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, stirring a strand of white hair in Zhang Dian's ear, he didn't care, and said in a flat tone: "A Kaifeng Mansion can't be completed in a year." ”
Kaifeng Mansion said that it was not big, and it was not small, but compared to the Great Song Dynasty, it must be small. But on the contrary, Kaifeng Mansion can't be completed in a year, so how can the 'new law' be fully revived next year?
Pei Yin understood Zhang Dan's thoughts, poured a glass of wine for Zhang Dan, and said: "Teacher, right now, we still have to deal with the affairs of Xia Kingdom, the official royal drive has already made the government and the opposition worried, but now the situation is delicate, and the government and the opposition are even more undercurrent, what should I do?" ”
Zhao Xu is not in the capital, and there are too many people and things that make Zhang Xuan and the imperial court have scruples and cannot make a decision.
Zhang Duan looked up at the moonlight again and said, "I'm not so nervous." Xiao Tiancheng went to Gyeongju, and he would never be able to get a bargain from the official family, and at most in mid-September, the official family would be able to return to Beijing. ”
When Pei Yin heard this, his heart was darkly relieved, and he smiled and said, "That's the best." The students heard that the mother's belly in the palace was getting bigger, and many people said that it was the prince. ”
But after saying that, he regretted it a little.
He actually knew that Zhang Dian didn't like Empress Meng, or that there were no more than thirty percent of those in the court who 'identified' with Empress Meng.
Empress Meng was born in the family of the 'old party', and was hand-picked by the Empress Dowager Gao, how can she like the people of the 'new party' who hate the 'old party' to the core?
If it weren't for Zhao Xu's constant suppression, Empress Meng would have been abolished long ago.
Zhang Dian was unmoved, and said: "You will go to Kaifeng Mansion later, and let Cao Zheng sort out the progress of the 'Fangtian Average Tax Law', I want to see." I may have to go down before the official family returns. ”
Pei Yin looked slightly startled, and then said with some hesitation: "Teacher, the official family has not returned to Beijing yet, and Kaifeng Mansion should not make a big move. ”
Zhang Dian picked up the wine glass, originally wanted to drink it, but put it down again, and said lightly: "This big victory, thanks to Your Majesty's wisdom and martial arts, if someone in Kaifeng Mansion does not open his eyes, it is disobedience to the king, I also want to see, who else has the courage to do this?" ”
Pei Yin thought about it and nodded secretly.
This big victory, nearly 100,000 enemies were annihilated, all the way to Lingzhou, and it was even more important to capture the important ministers of the Xia State like Wei Ming Aburi, such a big victory, the Great Song Dynasty never opened the country!
The great victory of the royal drive will inevitably boil the world and the people's will be high, who dares to criticize?
Zhang Dian heard footsteps not far away, stood up, and said to Pei Yin: "You enter the palace tomorrow and send something to the queen." ”
Pei Yin was stunned, is this a gesture of goodwill to Queen Meng?
Without waiting for him to speak, he saw Mrs. Zhang coming, and Pei Yin hurriedly saluted.
Mrs. Zhang took a single coat and said angrily: "It's still cold at night, what kind of wine are you drinking, you forgot what happened a few days ago?" How old are you, I have to take care of my children and grandchildren, I have to take care of you old man, you are going to exhaust me? ”
Zhang Dun took his clothes and put them on, didn't say anything at all, and went straight back to the room.
Mrs. Zhang smiled with Pei Yin, followed Zhang Dian, and said, "I said that the Li family wants to get married, what do you say?" People don't want you to be in a high position, clinging to my Zhang family, people have been noble for generations, and they don't care about any powerful ......"
Zhang Dian waved his hand and said, "I don't like that kid, he's only a teenager, what kind of relationship ...... to marry?"
Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said: "Then how old do you want to be, wait for twenty, and become an old girl?" Children's affairs, you father, can you be a ...... heart?"
Pei Yin looked at the teacher, the noisy back of the teacher, and looked a little envious.
