Chapter 215: Knocking on the Mountain and Shaking the Tiger
If he knew that someone used hidden dangers to describe himself, Chu Zhen was probably a little proud in his heart while being angry, after all, he couldn't afford to be called this if he didn't have a little weight.
"Zhang Yaozuo." When Chu Zhen heard this, he immediately knew who was the initiator who harmed him without an official position, but for no reason, how could he make a fuss about himself.
Chu Zhen frowned and thought, Chu Zhen didn't know much about Zhang Yaozuo, but he knew that he was the uncle of Zhao Zhen's favorite concubine Zhang Guifei, who used to be just a local magistrate, but later because Zhang Guifei was favored, his status became more and more prominent, and in just a few years, he became a bachelor of Duanming Palace, a third envoy, and such a powerful person, he should not embarrass himself for some very empty reasons, unless
"Quality, but what comes to mind?" Sensing that Chu Qian was thoughtful, Chu Qian immediately asked.
"Zhang Xiangxiang naturally didn't offend me, but I had a gap with his grandson Zhang Jinyuan, and there were a few quarrels." Chu Zhi said uncertainly: "But the prime minister can hold the boat in his belly, presumably Zhang Xiangxiang will not be resentful for some trivial things." ”
After listening to Chu Zhi's account of the contradictions and conflicts that had occurred between himself and Zhang Jinyuan, Chu Ji and a few people groaned, if according to common sense, these things are no different from playing with children in their eyes, no matter who suffers a loss, go home and cry, adults should only laugh at it, and definitely not think about revenge back, if there is not even a little tolerance, it is really too ungraceful.
"What Qian'er said is right, Zhang Envoy is in a high position, how can he embarrass Qian'er for these trivial things." Chu Qian said, there is still a trace of doubt in his eyes, people's hearts are unpredictable, this heart is not the other's heart, if Zhang Yaozuo really does not have this tolerance.
The hall was silent for a while, obviously everyone was thinking about this issue, and after a while, Chu Zhen asked softly: "Since there is a dispute, I don't know if the princes of the imperial court have different opinions on this matter." ”
"There was a lot of discussion, some people scoffed at this, thinking that it was not enough to be upright, some people were worried and hesitant, and some people were convinced and opened their mouths in favor." Chu Ji said.
"What is the attitude of the officials?" Chu asked, knowing the emperor's mind is the most important thing, no matter how inconsistent the opinions are, as long as the emperor Chrysostom speaks, he will definitely be able to change most people's minds.
"The official family neither supports nor opposes this matter, but just asks the courtiers to discuss and come up with a charter." Chu Ji said, there is a trace of helplessness, the emperor does not express his position is the worst thing, if it is not doubtful, there is no need to hand over the matter to the courtiers for discussion, the court officials have welcomed the intention for a long time, and they have also figured out a point or two of the emperor's thoughts, knowing that the Son of Heaven may not believe that this matter will be realized, but the mistake of indecision has been committed again, and he can't make up his mind, so he simply pushes it to the ministers.
"What kind of charter do the hundred officials have?" Chu asked, a little curious in his heart, and a hint of honor that he couldn't laugh or cry, could it be that the emperor's ministers were really so free that they actually put the major affairs of the court and politics behind them, but they were arguing endlessly about how to arrange the official position of Xiao Jinshi, and they couldn't come up with a result.
"Zhao Xianggong believes that the remarks of a 30-year-old minister are pure nonsense, and officials should be appointed according to the usual practice to show the court's fair grace, which has been approved by many ministers." After laughing, Chu Ji's face darkened again: "But Zhang Xiangxiang is stubborn, and he is-for-tat with Zhao Xianggong, refusing to show weakness, and has also been supported by some officials. ”
Of course, there are also some officials who put forward different opinions, but they were vetoed by the two sides at the same time, mainly because the opinions they put forward were either too bad or too preferential to Chu Qian's arrangement, and when one side was in favor, the other side definitely did not agree.
Someone proposed to let Chu Zhi stay in Beijing, serve as a secretary and bookkeeper in a certain official office in Beijing, and wait for a few years before being released, and then age will not be a problem, as soon as this suggestion came out, Zhao Yi and others were happy to accept it, they were immediately opposed, and scolded that person for being uneasy and kind, you must know that now I am afraid that Chu Zhen will enter the officialdom too early, and now I am staying in Beijing for appointment, isn't the starting point higher, with such qualifications, I am afraid that the speed of promotion will be accelerated.
There are also people who propose to delegate Chu Zhen to the inferior counties to serve as the chief secretary of Jiupin County, which also makes Zhao Yi firmly opposed, and bluntly says that he does so, without the slightest fairness, you must know that for the Jinshi who are at the top of the list, the imperial court has always been generous, this is a rule left by the ancestors, how can it be changed at will.
"In other words, I'm going to keep waiting." Chu Zhen felt a little bad, knowing that everyone was not in agreement, please meant that they were going to start arguing, since the officials were so free, who knows how long they would be involved, and they could bear it for three or five days, if it was a year and a half, Chu Zhen felt that he didn't have to waste time and consume them, it was better to focus on his folding fan business in full swing.
"There is no need to be anxious, presumably in a few days, the court will naturally discuss the results." Chu Ji comforted, I don't know why, but Chu Zhen felt that his tone was a little empty.
"I hope so." Chu Zhen said, and he could only accept this fact silently.
After chatting for a few words, seeing that Chu Qian's spirit was a little sluggish, Chu Ji comforted him and asked him to go back to rest, and after Chu Zhi confessed his guilt and left, Chu Ji's pleasant smile suddenly became gloomy.
"Zhang Yaozuo, it's really too deceitful." Chu Ji said in a deep voice: "I know that Zhen'er is my own nephew, but I still use it to make a fuss and stir up trouble, and I don't even have a little face, so I really don't take me Chu Ji in my eyes." ”
"It's just that they are fighting openly and secretly, why should they involve the hostages." Chu Qian said angrily: "And even the excuses they make are so absurd, I'm afraid even they don't believe it." ”
"Big brother, the matter has come to an end, it's useless to talk more, let's think about how to solve it." Chu Luo sighed softly: "When I was the first child, I was a little worried in my heart, I thought it would be a matter of the future, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly. ”
"How can they not be in a hurry, it is rumored that the official family intends to recall." Chu Qian sneered: "How can they sit still. ”
"That's their business." Chu Luo's eyes condensed slightly, and obvious anger appeared: "Whether they want to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, or kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey, we have no opinion, but we shouldn't have the idea of hostage." ”
"If they really want to treat the hostages." A cold light flashed in Chu Ji's eyes, and he said slowly: "Then I have to put my face away and enter the palace to ask the official family for a favor." ”
The Westinghouse attic room was silent, a wisp of musk deer, like sandalwood non-sandalwood fragrance is overflowing from a simple and small red sandalwood furnace, wisps of light smoke filled the room, slowly faded, and finally turned into nothingness, Chu Zhi lazily lay on the soft embroidery bed, the expression on his face was very serene, his eyes were slightly closed, and he seemed to have fallen asleep.
After a while, the door was quietly pushed open, and a small footstep sounded, and I saw Chu'er holding a bowl of soup in her slender little hand, and approaching the embroidery bed lightly, her face was a little gloomy, and her eyes were shining, and there was a trace of sincere concern.
"Childe, are you asleep?" Chu'er called softly, and after repeating this, seeing that Chu Zhi still did not move, he carefully put the soup on the table next to him, sat on the edge of the embroidery bed gently, and looked at Chu Qian's handsome face as if he was asleep, and sighed silently from his plump soft lips.
"Good end, what do you sigh for."
The sudden sound made Chu'er suddenly stand up in fright, but she tripped over the edge of the bed, and her body fell down involuntarily, only to feel that her eyes suddenly darkened, and Chu'er couldn't help but exclaim, but suddenly felt that she threw herself into a warm and comfortable cushion.
The plump and moist delicate body is embraced, full of the seductive elasticity of a young girl, her arms are lightly wrapped, and the warm palm is attached to Chu'er's soft lower abdomen, gently stroking, Chu Zhen chuckled and said: "When did Chu'er become so enthusiastic." ”
Hearing Chu Zhen's voice, Chu'er's stiff body slowly softened due to fright, and her beautiful little face steamed out a touching flush, blinked her beautiful eyes, and said softly: "Childe, are you okay?" ”
"What can I do?" Chu Zhen smiled slightly, having said that, he was still a little depressed in his heart, which one to change, when he encountered such a thing, he was afraid that his mood would not be much better.
"Childe." Chu'er sensitively noticed a trace of gloom in Chu Zhi's mood, and twisted his body a little uneasily, his beautiful eyes showed worry, but he didn't know how to comfort him.
"Don't worry, Chu'er." Chu Zhen said in a harmonious voice: "I can still bear a small setback, it's a big deal not to give an official position from the imperial court, run our business with peace of mind, maybe in this way, our goal will be easier to achieve." ”
Of course, this is just a momentary angry talk, if you really see everything, where will you feel depressed, besides, you have worked hard for so long, but you have not been rewarded, how can Chu Zhen be willing, Chu Er heard this, her soft body turned over slightly, and a pair of clear eyes looked at Chu Zhen carefully, as if she could see his thoughts, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
"Okay, Chu'er has become bolder, and he has actually learned to laugh at people." Chu Zhen gritted his teeth, pretending to be very vicious, his palm fell on the beauty's round white and tender buttocks, just pressed it, the skin touched was extremely soft and smooth, where was he willing to use force, but gently and slowly drew circles on the two plump and smooth buttocks and gently stroked back and forth.
"No, Childe's mood is not as angry as just now, Chu'er is happy for this." The body trembled slightly, and Chu Er said in a greasy voice, a pair of beautiful eyes were hazy, and a trace of gorgeous red slowly oozed from under the white jade-like skin.
"If anger solves the problem, there won't be so many troubles in the world." Chu Zhen sighed lightly, hugged the beauty's soft body, the fragrance came to his nose, and the haze in his heart gradually melted away.
