Zhang Bennian rubbed his eyes desperately, his eyes widened, he settled down, and looked carefully, his name was still fixed in the first place.

"Whew......" Zhang Ben let out a long breath of turbidity, he never dreamed that he would have such a day!

Moreover, in the officialdom of Wu Yueguo before, Zhang Bennian, who had no backer, was able to become the official of Hangzhou Prefecture, which was already regarded as green smoke on the ancestral grave.

Maybe it was out of curiosity, maybe it was because the stuffiness in his chest had been held for a long time, Zhang Ben stood in front of the emperor for a long time, looking down from his head.

With the movement of his gaze, Zhang Bennian saw it very clearly, and he also looked very carefully, most of his previous superiors did not appear on the emperor's list.

Moreover, many incompetent people who Zhang thought were wine bags and rice bags this year did not appear on the emperor's list.

"Huh......" Zhang Bennian felt very angry, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, before he could change his mind, the crowd behind pushed him out, and Zhang Bennian turned his head with all his might, wanting to take another look at the emperor's list.

However, the crowd you pushed me into was too dense, and his wish was completely shattered.

After Zhang was squeezed out of the crowd this year, he was still in a good mood, he held his head high, took square steps, and walked back leisurely.

In any case, his first name will be reused by the new dynasty. I don't dare to think about the heavy responsibility of the prefect of Hangzhou, at least, the prefect of the thirteen states of Wu Yueguo, there are still some opportunities, right?

What's more, if he can go to Kaifeng to take up a post, Zhang will be happy this year. As the saying goes, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and being an official is also majestic.

However, if you can serve in the flowery Kaifeng City, there may be room for improvement in your future career, right?

When Zhang returned home this year, the housekeeper, who had already returned first, hurriedly ran over to ask for guilt.

Zhang Bennian waved his hand and said: "The crowd at the scene is too dense, you can't squeeze in, I really don't blame you." In order to squeeze to the front to watch the list, he almost exhausted his physical strength, and he was up to others, and the result can be imagined.

Unexpectedly, the butler said, "Master, the little one actually saw the result of your first place very early." It's just that when the small one squeezed out of the crowd and wanted to go home, he was entangled by several local officials' subordinates, and he couldn't get out for a while. ”

"Oh, I see." Zhang Bennian is a smart person, and after a little thought, he also knew the inside story of the housekeeper's late return.

It must be among his colleagues who saw that he was about to soar and deliberately get closer to his housekeeper, right?

Hehe, as the saying goes, one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven, and that's true!

After Zhang entered the house this year, his butt had not yet sat down, and he saw the porter come in and report: "Back to the master, the family of Liu Wangdong, the former Hangzhou Governor's left judge, came to hand over the post." ”

"Oh......" Zhang Bennian took the post and looked at it, and sure enough, it was his old boss Liu Wangdong.

Liu Wangdong has always been jealous and jealous, narrow-minded, and can't tolerate people, and he has always looked at Zhang Bennian unpleasantly, often picking his nose and picking his eyes.

Hehe, it's really thirty years in Hedong, forty years in Hexi, and he Liu Wangdong also has a time to ask for help?

Zhang Bennian was immediately very pleased, once upon a time, he wanted to go to Liu Wangdong's door, but he was never able to do so.

"Tell his family that the old man is not at home." Zhang put Liu Wangdong's post lightly on the desk this year, but he didn't look at it.

sent away Liu Wangdong's family, and one after another people came to the door to post posts, all of whom were Zhang's colleagues before this year.

Among them, there are a few people who have posted under the post, whose background is clearly Zhu Zi of the Prime Minister's Mansion of Wu Yueguo.

Zhang Bennian sighed secretly, he had just taken the first place in the exam, and the top bosses who had not been able to tie up before sent people to invite him to a banquet, cough, feng shui is really taking turns!

In the afternoon, the concierge of the Zhang family was even busier. There are as many people as there are people who come to the post, which is dizzying!

In the end, the concierge of the Zhang family simply closed the door and refused to open the door to answer the post.

Zhang is a smart person this year, he is easy to fold, he just won the first place, if the scene of the traffic in front of the door is known by Li Zhongyi, what will he think?

Therefore, Zhang Bennian would rather offend people than leave a good impression on Li Zhongyi that he is a lonely minister.

What's more, Zhang has always been a genuine lonely minister this year, and there is no backer to support him, so the official fortune is also extremely difficult.

The news of the Zhang family's closing of the door soon reached Li Zhongyi's ears, and Li Zhongyi couldn't help but smile slightly and said, "He is also a really smart person." ”

Liao Shanhe, who was sitting on the side, saw that Li Zhongyi was in a good mood, so he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you like to deal with smart people the most, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime wonder that a stupid person like me can be the commander of an army." ”

Li Zhongyi laughed, Liao Shanhe's level of sycophants is getting higher and higher.

In the past, Liao Shanhe also wanted to make fun and tell a few jokes, but he always had a little bit of taste.

Now, without thinking about it, Liao Shanhe can say gossip that amuses Li Zhongyi, which shows that he has made great progress.

"Xiaoda, what do you think about this?" Li Zhongyi asked Liao Shanhe.

Liao Shanhe thought about it carefully and said: "Zhang is a smart person, even if he wins the first place, he doesn't dare to show it." However, it is no wonder that he did it with some deliberate taste. ”

Li Zhongyi nodded, Liao Shanhe, who was already the commander of the Sixth Army, had stayed by his side all these years, and his progress could indeed be described as speed.

I think that at the beginning, Li Zhongyi deliberately kept Liao Shanhe by his side and served as the commander of the Guards, the purpose was to cultivate him.

Now, Liao Shanhe's original out-of-the-box temperament has completely disappeared, and the progress can be described as great.

"By what you mean, this person can be used, but not reused?" Li Zhongyi asked Liao Shanhe with a smile.

Liao Shanhe's face changed suddenly, and he waved his hand again and again and said: "Your Majesty is a military minister, and you don't dare to ask about government affairs." ”

Li Zhongyi nodded secretly, and Liao Shanhe's clear statement showed that he always remembered the basic political principle of different roads between civil and military.

"Well, the army is about to move westward, and I am thinking, the heavy responsibility of staying in Hangzhou can only be handed over to you." Li Zhongyi looked at Liao Shanhe expectantly.

Liao Shanhe immediately got up and arched his hand: "The emperor will not give up, and the ministers will definitely not live up to your expectations with such a heavy responsibility, and they will not teach Hangzhou and the entire Wuyue country to make a big mess." ”

Big mess, this "big" word is very expressive!

After Li Zhongyi took Wu Yueguo, the reason why the situation in various places was relatively stable was mainly because the 80,000 army towns were in Hangzhou, so that careerists did not dare to act rashly.

If the army left Hangzhou, the careerists would probably think that the opportunity had come, and they would definitely make a demon moth.

At this time, it is necessary to stabilize the situation without hurting the economic vitality of Hangzhou, depending on the true ability of Liao Shanhe, the guard!
