Chapter 860: Difficult to Choose
The woman in the picture has a pointed chin, melon seed face, a beautiful and handsome face, a slender neck, sloping shoulders, and a slender and handsome body, but Zhao Hao carefully looked at it and found that her thin eyebrows and long eyes implied poignant and melancholy. He didn't know if it was the painter's pen business, or if he was overflowing, but it was the sadness between his eyebrows that attracted his attention.
Zhao Yu knew that the draft meant a disaster for poor families, but it was an out-and-out opportunity for the rich and noble families, not to mention that being able to become a queen was the glory of the family to become a concubine, and a talisman was attached. Girls of the right age in their own families often rush to be sent to the palace to be selected.
And in this era, the free love of the West Chamber and the White Snake is almost a fantasy, and it is a good choice for them to be able to enter the palace. Don't say you're happy, and you're not sad. This made Zhao Hao can't help but think that this little lady will not have a dream lover earlier, but she was beaten with a stick, right? Then it's better to be an adult beauty, don't get a green hat to wear, and then have a 'happy father'!
"Zhang Ping, whose ancestral home is Fenning County, was born in the sixth year of Chunyou." Zhao Yu took the booklet and flipped to the introduction and read softly, "His ancestor Zhangjian, the word is Gongbing, the name is Hangshan, and the alias is Wansuo." Chunhu was awarded the provincial examination in other hospitals for four years. Tired officials to the middle scholar, the servant Zuo Lang official, the Chongzheng Hall storyteller, into the signing of the Privy Council and the governor's affairs, and soon promoted to the same knowledge of the Privy Council. In the tenth year of Xianchun, Zhang Jian was the right prime minister and privy envoy. At the beginning of the following year, Boyan led the Mongol army to invade the south, approaching Lin'an, and the Manchu Dynasty panicked. Zhang Jian saw that the situation was critical, so he sneaked out. Soon recalled and dismissed ......"
"How can there be a different statement here?" When Zhao Yu saw this section, two opinions appeared. The front is the official statement, but the back is what the Secretariat has investigated.
The statement of the secretariat is contrary to the official release, saying that Zhang Jian worshiped the right prime minister and privy council envoy in the tenth year of Xianchun. When the Yuan soldiers invaded, he actively fought the main battle and supported the national hero Wen Tianxiang's anti-Yuan proposition. Later, due to the death of Han Zhen, the son of Jian and Zeng Yuan had a close relationship with Han Zhen, and was persecuted by Wang Lun, the left prime minister of the traitorous party, and was ousted and returned to the field.
These two statements are very different, and the official statement is that they fled in fear of the enemy and were recalled to the prime minister, and they must be held accountable at present. Even if they will not be arrested and imprisoned, it is certain that they will not be reinstated, and even if they have to be deprived of their official status and affect their families, it is impossible for their granddaughters to pass the primary election; According to the Bureau, Zhang Jian was framed by Wang Lun because he disagreed with Wang Lun's politics, and was dismissed. According to this statement, then it is a victim of the court struggle and has nothing to do with character.
Zheng Huchen sent the information, and also attached Wen Tianxiang's "Shangzhang Jianhangshan Book", which has the sentence "a lifetime of career, residents' plans, thousands of miles of mountains and rivers to save the country", which has been widely recited. Praise him as an official and a person, and his mental quality: "The old man of the country, the Qing minister of the time, the painting of the political and diocesan district, and the reform of customs." Wealth is not lewd, adversity is merciful, gods know their hearts, and they are always virtuous. Zhao Yu thought that Wen Tianxiang's temperament would not be so irresponsible, and he praised him unprincipledly just because he supported him to resist the Yuan.
Regarding Zhang Jian's incorruptibility, Zhao Yu believes that it is still credible. Because the official and the report mentioned one thing, saying that after the death of Han Zhen, the commander of the forbidden army, when the imperial history confiscated the relics of the palace marshal Han Zhen, he found that Han Zhen was suspected of conspiracy, and Zhang Jian had a close relationship with Han Zhen and was imprisoned for his crimes. After being released from prison, he returned to his hometown. Someone told him that he had hidden a treasure seal in his home, and the government sent troops to search for it, but found nothing except a jade cup.
After the information, there are also comments on Zhang Jian from the world, some people call him a generous person, usually interact with people, often agree with other people's views, call it "Manchaohuan", saying that he has no principles in doing things; Some people also say that although it is a supplement to the prime minister, it is like a cloth cloth. He is an honest official, rigorous in political affairs, generous and generous, and worries about the country and the people all his life; Some people also say that he is a decent person and never goes in and out of the green building.
Zhao Yu suddenly felt that this old man was really a strange officialdom, he seemed to have no principles, but he actually had a bottom line, and there was something like 'Lu Duan is not confused'. And he is still alive and well, that is, he has not reported to the imperial court to seek officials, nor has he been involved in Chen Yizhong's rebellion case, and there is no trace of him in this incident of commemorating the empress dowager. And it was not affected in the 'rebellion', but was able to send his granddaughter to the palace to be selected while the identity of the 'criminal minister' was still there, and successfully passed the primary election and re-election, and advanced to the top five.
"Old man Zhang is really good at playing!" Zhao Yu pondered for a while, shook his head, and chuckled. Zhang Jianneng successfully sent his granddaughter to the palace, precisely because he has the ability to 'full house', he can stand alone in the disputes in the court and be tolerated by various factions. And good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil, and its good popularity comes in handy at this moment, I am afraid that everyone will not believe that such a good old man will rebel, and being deposed is just a design.
Zhao Yu felt that Zhang Jian was like throwing himself into a net, he saw the current situation clearly, and when the Song army had no chance of winning, he knew that it was difficult to return to the sky, so he simply fulfilled the wishes of some people, admitted the charge of 'escaping', gave them a reason to depose himself, and also sought a way to live. But he still didn't guess that the Great Song Dynasty would make a comeback, and he didn't stand up to prove his innocence, probably because he felt that the clean person was self-purifying, and there was no need to stand up and shout.
Facts have indeed confirmed Zhang Jian's judgment, not only the grassroots officials in the prefecture, county, and township have given him the green light all the way, but many ministers in the DPRK and China, such as Lu Xiufu, Wen Tianxiang, Liu Huang, Zhang Shijie, and others, know about this matter, but none of them have raised objections. It can be seen that everyone knows it, and they have opened their eyes and closed their eyes and let it go.
"The little girl is worried!" Zhao Yu figured out the joint, put the painting aside and said secretly. It is precisely because of this chapter that I don't know the inside story of the matter, after entering the palace, I can't help but worry that my grandfather's identity as a 'criminal official' will affect the draft, and I can't help but worry a lot, and the painter painted his melancholy appearance into the painting......
"Which lady is this!" Zhao Yu picked up another picture and looked at it carefully, but saw that this little girl was also standing quietly with her hands down, wearing a faint Luo shirt, with a thin waist curling like a willow, and a light figure like a floating cloud, but she walked elegantly like a goddess, like a light cloud, slender hands, bright eyes, a pair of bright eyes, a fresh appearance, and the small upturned nose made it a little more playful.
"Cheng Su, a native of She County, was born in the sixth year of Chunyou." Zhao Yu opened it again and searched for it, and this booklet is tantamount to a book of life and death for these women to be selected.
Cheng's family, the family has a long history, but before the Song Dynasty, it was a gate, and after entering the Song Dynasty, the style of the door gradually changed, and the children of the Cheng family won the imperial examination one after another, and entered the official career, thus becoming a scholarly family. Its ancestor Cheng Yuanfeng, the word Shenfu, the number of Ne Zhai, Li Zong Shaoding two years, his examination in the Jinshi, was appointed as a professor in Jiangling Mansion, and later successively served as a doctor of Taixue, a doctor of Zongxue, a secretary, a writer, a supervisor of the imperial history, the palace of the imperial history and other positions, known for his loyalty and integrity. Chun Youjian, Doctor of Qiantaixue. During the time of Li Zong, he entered the secretary, moved to the book, and worshiped the supervising officials.
Baoyou for three years, for the signing of the Privy Council and the power to participate in the governor's affairs. In the following year, he was also the prime minister and privy envoy of the right side, and put forward the principle of advancing to the virtuous, loving the people, preparing for the border, abiding by the law, being cautious, judging the order, and the twelve-character policy as the policy program, and personally selected dozens of people with both ability and political integrity from all over the country and recommended them to the imperial court for reuse. For six years, he lifted the Dongxiao Palace. In the third year of Xianchun, he was once again the right minister and privy envoy, and then Chen Yizhong. In his later years, he was awarded the post of young master, and was awarded the title of Jiguo Gong, but due to the conflict with Jia Yidao, he was retired to Huangshan with Shaobao and Guanwendian University scholars.
Cheng Yuanfeng is quite fair and selfless in employing people in the DPRK, and is known for his loyalty and integrity. Cheng Su is the youngest daughter of his Changmen, his father retired to the countryside after entering the Yuan Dynasty, and took pleasure in teaching his sons, and regained Jiangnan after resuming the first room of the Ministry of Officials. Cheng Su was born in a scholarly family, she is well-versed in scripture and history, can write and paint, knows music and rhythm, especially poetry, can be described as versatile.
Zhao Yu's first feeling after reading it was that the Queen Mother had found a teacher for herself, she was slightly the same as the scriptures and history, and she could write words, but she didn't dare to call it good. The sound is not comprehensible, humming a few sentences is okay, the piano barely recognizes, just play it; It's okay to plagiarize poetry, but there's no way to do it yourself. And these skills are often acquired by an emperor, at least they must know how to appreciate them. Maybe the queen mother saw that she was too inferior, and she knew that she was hopeless, so she simply found a daughter-in-law to support the façade.
However, Zhao Yu felt that the Queen Mother had forgotten to consider her feelings. Although there is a shield when feasting in the palace, you can think of how embarrassing and helpless it would be for the daughters-in-law to chant poems and paint together, play the piano and sing songs, and sing harmony to each other, while they can only giggle and clap their hands. If you ask how big the shadow area is in your heart at that time, I'm afraid you don't need to count it to know the result. So in order to avoid embarrassment in the future, he could only put it down temporarily.
"This ......" Zhao Yu took the last portrait, but he didn't know how to comment. Maybe I've just seen a few beauties of all kinds, some aesthetic fatigue, and I don't think this appearance is too high, there is nothing special at a rough look, but if you look closely, it's still very attractive, her hair is in a high bun, her eyebrows are delicate, dignified and beautiful, her facial features are upright, her face is pink, her face is like charity, and there is a smile on the corner of her mouth.
If you just look at the face of this woman, among Zhao Yujue's several people, she is more in line with the standards of the emperors of the Song Dynasty. And when he looked at the introduction of his family's situation, it was even more impressive, not only not inferior to the previous ones, but also more prominent.
In the introduction, the woman's name is Wu Xi, a native of Anji, and Chunyou was born in the fourth year. The previous introductions all date back to two generations, but this one started with his great-grandfather Wu Qian. In short, the Wu Qian family, up to his grandfather Wu Picheng, down to his grandson Wu Baoqian, especially the three sages of Rousheng, Yuan, and Qianwu are all Jinshi and the first, both of whom are important ministers of the court and the cabinet, and the Yuan and Qian brothers have entered the prime minister.
Wu Qian was born in the apartment of his father Wu Rousheng, and the following year his mother, Mrs. Shen, died of illness, and returned to Ningguo with his father due to frequent floods. At the age of six, he lived with Wu Rouli, his uncle in Xuancheng, and traveled to Ningguo, Wanling, Jingxian and other places. The young Wu Qian was very intelligent, he entered the state school at the age of 14, led the township at the age of 16, and led the township at the age of 22. In the tenth year of Jiading, the twenty-three-year-old Wu Qian became the first Jinshi with a Ning nationality, and also became one of the two champions of the Zhao and Song dynasties.
Wu Qian lived in the Song Dynasty, Ningzong and Lizong, and his main political activities were in the era of Lizong. Although he successively served as the governor of the governor, the privy envoy, and the left and right prime ministers, the time was not long, and the cumulative period was less than two years and eight months. When he went out, he had served in Jiaxing, Jiankang, Longxing, Taiping, Pingjiang, Zhenjiang, Lin'an, Fuzhou, Shaoxing, Qingyuan, Ningguo and other eleven prefectures, and most of them served as envoys or commanders-in-chief. In his more than 40 years of political life, he has always been associated with internal and external troubles at the end of the Song Dynasty. In the end, he was framed by the traitor Jia Nidao, and Jingding died in Xunzhou in the third year.
Wu Qian grew up in a family where he studied science in two lifetimes, and the essence of science was to resolutely maintain feudal rule. However, when the national contradiction of the Song Dynasty became the main contradiction in society at that time, he also demanded a struggle with the people based on the Confucian idea of "respecting the king and fighting the emperor", and Wu Qian's father and son brothers also saw it in practical action. Therefore, he refers to Chen Zhouzhi about the gains and losses of current politics and the measures of war defense; For the lack of rulers, especially the emperor, he also committed a straightforward admonishment.
As for the struggle against the Quan Xing Gang Party, it has become more and more intense with the crisis of the current situation. Wu Qian believes in Confucianism, adheres to the golden mean, and cleans himself, especially in the early stage of being an official, he often sneers at Quan Xing and treacherous people without making a strong counterattack. However, when Wu Qian became the prime minister's assistant, he felt that the treacherous evil would not be eliminated, and the country's fortune would not return. However, in the court where the emperor is mediocre and traitors are in power, how can Wu Qian's wish become a reality?
However, Zhao Yu thought that although Wu Qian's ambition was unrewarded, his outspoken loyalty and the integrity of the brave traitorous party were commendable. In short, when the coffin is closed, the eulogy can be written: "Comrade Wu Qian's life is a life of loyalty to the monarch and serving the country, a life of diligence and love for the people, a life of uprightness, and a life of admiration by future generations!" ”
Wu Qian married the Lishui family Ping's wife, giving birth to Pu, Lin, Jue, and Weiguo's wife Ping's Xu, who did not remarry, nor did he live, so he only had three sons in the world. Among the three sons, Wu Pu has made more achievements in history, Chunyou has been a scholar for four years, and he has been awarded the school book for the first time, and he has changed the general system of Jiaxing Prefecture and the town along the river. Wu Pu also had his eldest son Baoqian, who was awarded the Chenglang Pingjiang Road Zhizhong; The second son, Baoli, is a transfer envoy.
Wu Xi is the eldest daughter of Puzhi, born in the family of the eunuch, she is naturally knowledgeable and proficient in literature and ink. As the eldest daughter of the house, she naturally has to learn to take care of housework since she was a child, and it is said that she is a good housekeeper and fair. And respect for his father and ancestors, treat his younger brothers and sisters well, be virtuous and virtuous, and do things in a good way, and the whole clan is very convinced. It seems that none of them are good, but Zhao Yu is stumped......
