Chapter Sixty-Seven: The Distinguished Guest Comes to the Door with an Undercurrent
Liu Muzhi looked at Zhang Beijia, who was walking towards the door, his heart moved, and said: "Could it be that this Zhang Beijia is the one who recently entered the palace with his sister Zhang Fashun?" ”
Liu Linzong looked at Liu Muzhi with some surprise: "Does Your Excellency also know what is going on in this court?" ”
Liu Muzhi was embarrassed and his face trembled: "This, I am also a scholar in Xiahao, and I can also know some news, I heard that this sister of Zhang Beijia is a famous beauty, and she is very famous in the Sanwu area. ”
Today's Jin Dynasty court, the struggle between imperial power and relative power is very fierce, the major families, headed by Prime Minister Xie An, have been ruling in turn for many years, virtual monarchs and real power, the emperor is just a puppet, like the powerful minister Huan Wen even did the abolition of the Son of Heaven.
After the death of Huan Wen, the current Xiaowu Emperor Sima Yao reigned, and finally wanted to take back the imperial power, and recently he worshiped his own brother, Sima Daozi, the king of Huiji, as the secretary of the book, and Xie An as the prime minister, which is the embodiment of his intentions.
It's just that a big family like Xie An is shrewd, and after reaching a consensus with the Huan family who dominates Jingzhou, he preemptively arranged a branch of the Taiyuan Wang clan for Emperor Xiaowu, Wang Yun's daughter and Wang Gong's sister Wang Fahui as the queen, so as to strengthen the control of the emperor.
The emperor and the king of Huiji, who were not willing to be controlled by the Xie family and the Huan family, in turn took another branch of the Taiyuan Wang family, Wang Guobao, the son of Wang Tanzhi, and used his cousin as the princess of Huiji to fight against Xie An, Wang Gong, Huan Chong and other families.
Not only that, but they also selected the daughter of the famous family in the Sanwu region, Huiji Zhang, into the palace as a talented person to balance Wang Fahui.
This surnamed Zhang's Lujiang farewell, is the nephew of the Huiji Zhang, named Zhang Fashun, among the indigenous overseas Chinese surnames in the Sanwu area, can be regarded as a well-known rising star, because his sister is favored, and he himself is also talented, and has been personally protected by the king of Huiji, which can be described as a spring breeze.
Today, the young talent who took office as a new official appeared on the wedding of the Jiang family, which has always been known as a celebrity and dominated the Qing Dynasty.
Liu Yu nodded thoughtfully, although he had always been in Jingkou, he had also heard Liu Muzhi say a lot of these things in the court, and Liu Yi and others would also chat for a while while bragging and drinking, he was not an ordinary rural villager, he had no knowledge, as soon as he heard a few people talking like this, he immediately understood in his heart.
Thinking of this, Liu Yu said: "Since this Zhang Beijia is here, it is even more necessary for us to go in and have a look." ”
Before he finished his words, his face suddenly changed, because a chariot was walking here, and a well-decorated carriage made of very elaborate rosewood, carved with various fish and bird patterns side by side, the chariot was carried by eight strong men in purple robes, and more than 20 blue-clothed sword-wielding disciples were escorting on the side, and the one sitting on it was not Sun Tai, the sect leader of the Heavenly Master Dao?
Sun Tai also found Liu Yu and the others at the same time, his eyes fell on Liu Linzong's body at once, Rao was as calm as him, and his face changed, and he hurriedly walked down from the chariot and saluted Liu Linzong: "Poor Dao ............"
Liu Linzong smiled slightly, and waved his hand: "You are the Sect Master Sun of the Heavenly Master Dao, maybe Your Excellency has recognized the wrong person, the next surname is Liu, the double name Lin Zong, a person from Jiangzhou, came with this Li Xian brother today, and happened to meet this family to have a happy event, so I want to come in and rub a glass of wine." ”
The corners of Sun Tai's mouth hooked, he quickly understood, and then smiled: "It turned out to be Mr. Liu, the head of the poor way." You have come from afar, the people of Jingkou are hospitable, the Jiang family is here to do a happy event today, you are here, they will be very happy. ”
From another luxurious carriage stepped down a long-haired, forty-year-old scribe, who was different from Liu Linzong and Li Zhizhi, including Yang Linzi that day, in that his clothes were very delicate and meticulous.
A good cyan satin dress, tightly attached to the body, obviously, this is not the kind of high-ranking family who likes to drink Wushi San, and there is no need to wear a wide and relaxed robe to dissipate the medicinal strength, Liu Yu knew at a glance that this should be a local wealthy family in the Sanwu area, and the jade pendant with the word "Shen" hanging on his waist shows his identity.
Liu Yu's heart moved, Wuxing Shen family, has always been the indigenous clan of Jiangdong, when the Eastern Jin Dynasty regime just crossed to the south, the powerful minister Wang Dun made several rebellions, that is, he got the strong support of Shen Chong, a wealthy family of the Shen family in Wuxing, and once successfully controlled the central power, but after the failure, the Shen family also suffered a catastrophe, Shen Chong was cut off, although the other families were retained, but it was also a great loss of vitality, and many of the family properties that had been occupied for hundreds of years were also divided by the Wang, Xie, Yu family and other foreign families from Nandu.
But in this era, the Shen family has another Zhongxing person, Wu Xing Shen Police, who is a well-educated Confucian in the world, and a Zuo Spring and Autumn Period is very well governed, even Xie An is impressed by it, and wants to lead him out to be an official several times, but he avoids it and is at ease to be his wealthy family at home.
Liu Yu was thinking about whether this person was Shen Policeman, but he saw this middle-aged scribe clasping his fists at Liu Linzong and said, "Mr. Liu, Shen Policeman in Xia Wuxing, this is polite." ”
Liu Linzong smiled slightly, and said politely: "Mr. Shen's generation has been full of Confucianism, and it is really a blessing in his life to see his dignity today." It's just ............" Liu Linzong said this, glanced at Sun En who was on the side, and said, "Why did Mr. appear with Sect Master Sun today?" ”
Police Shen said with a smile: "In the Sanwu area, the Heavenly Master Dao is very popular, Shen has been the master of the Heavenly Master Dao since he was a child, Du Zhenren, and he is also the master of Sect Master Sun. ”
The corners of Liu Linzong's mouth hooked: "It turns out that Mr. Shen and Sect Master Sun are fellow practitioners." So, when you came to Jingkou to attend the Jiang family's wedding this time, did Sect Master Sun also invite you here? ”
A vigorous and powerful voice sounded from inside the door: "I didn't expect that there would be so many distinguished guests coming to a happy wedding event in my Jiangjia District, it is really a blessing for Sansheng." ”
Liu Yu and the others looked towards the door, but only saw an old man who was over fifty years old, with a master's temperament, wearing a scarf on his head and a wide-sleeved robe, accompanied by Jiang Bo and Jiang Lang, floating out, followed by more than a dozen servants and maids, looking at this person's temperament, there is no doubt that he is the head of the Jiang family, Jiang Yi, who has served as the assassin of the state and county.
