Section 790 Small Talk (1)
The next day, Gongsun Yu sent someone to inform Zhang Yue that a workshop had been vacated in the West Weaving Room, and dozens of skilled craftsmen had been transferred from the East Weaving Room to stand by.
But Zhang Yue did not rush to the West Weaving Room to meet Gongsun Yi, but went to the Taifu Yamen, handed over the post, and asked to see Shangguan Ji.
As soon as Shangguan Ji heard that it was Zhang Yue's visit, he immediately left all the affairs in his hand and hurried out to greet him.
No way!
The relationship between him and Zhang Yue is now so close that he almost doesn't wear a pair of pants.
At least, that's what Shangguan Jie himself thinks.
Not to mention, the strategy of 'cleaning up the residual poison of the thief's father and son' that Zhang Yue gave him has now been a great success.
Holding high the banner of 'cleaning up the remnants of thieves and fathers and sons', Shangguan Ji has launched more than a dozen purge campaigns since he took office.
With the support of the Son of Heaven at his back, the entire servant was shuffled by him.
More than seventy percent of the thirty-six Yuan of the Imperial Servant, the chief officer of each Cao Yousi, was taken down by him and sent to the Tingwei Yamen for tourism.
Then, he vigorously promoted those talents who had been buried under Gongsun He's father and son in the past.
Because these people were promoted by him, the loyalty, obedience and action are all off the charts.
Immediately, the entire servant was refreshed, and the work efficiency was greatly improved.
even made him famous, and now, the people talk about him as an official.
The symbol is no longer a sycophant, but a capable minister!
This alone is enough to make Shangguan Ji owe a lot of favors!
Not to mention, Shangguan Ji's sister-in-law, Shangguan An, and several concubines are all Zhang Yue's brainless fans.
Touting and fooling at home every day.
Over time, even Shangguan Ji believed that Zhang Zizhong in the future must be an important minister of the state, comparable to Wei Huo.
With such a character, Shangguan Ji naturally knows how he should treat it.
Don't even go to the book, just do what Gongsun He did.
Gongsun He and Gongsun Ao are both recognized as mediocre generals and incompetent lieutenants.
However, by hugging Wei Qing's thighs, all of them were sealed.
Therefore, when Shangguan Jian saw Zhang Yue, it was the same as seeing the walking vending machine of the Marquis, and his whole face was full of smiles: "How can the servant have time to come to the Taifu Yamen to find a foolish brother today?" ”
"But there is something to ask for!" Zhang Yue was also smiling, and replied: "I still need the full help of the servant!" ”
"Well said! Say! Shangguan Ji invited Zhang Yue into the official office, took him to a private room specially used to meet guests, and then asked, "I don't know what is the affairs of the servants?" ”
"The younger brother wants to ask my brother to help find some cashmere ...... from the Taifu Yamen," Zhang Yue said with a smile, afraid that Shangguan Ji would not be able to understand, so he explained: "It is the catkins-like fluff that the sheep only grow in winter..."
Shangguan Ji listened, although he didn't know exactly what Zhang Yue wanted?
But he still immediately instructed the left and right: "Immediately send someone to the Shanglin Stable in Shanglin Yuan to fetch the cashmere ...... for the servants."
"Well, let's get a few dozen stones first......"
Zhang Yue hurriedly said: "But I don't want to have so many...... It's enough to take four or five pounds! ”
Dozens of stone cashmere? I'm afraid it would take tens of thousands of goats to collect so much!
Anyway, in later life, Zhang Yue saved up for a year's private money, and finally bought himself a cashmere.
It seems to be only 200 grams of cashmere......
After thinking about it, Zhang Yue added: "Ask someone to use the comb that the woman combs her hair to comb the goat's hair, and the fine fleece that comes down is cashmere!" ”
"Why don't you go yet!?" Shangguan raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Remember to follow the practice of the waiter, go and sparse the cashmere!" ”
"No!" Immediately someone took the command and left.
"The children are stupid, but they call the virtuous brothers a joke!" Shangguan Ji looked at the man and apologized to Zhang Yue.
"The elder brother governs harshly, and the foolish brother is respectful!" Zhang Yue also laughed and talked with Shangguan Jipan: "Brother Fool heard that my brother recently liked his granddaughter? I wonder if it's true? ”
Shangguan Jian listened, and was suspicious in his heart, his eldest son Shangguan An gave birth to a granddaughter to him a few days ago, and few outsiders knew about this matter except for his own family.
After all, a granddaughter, even if it's a granddaughter, is like that in his eyes.
Most people regard it as a loss of money - now that the Han family marries, it is not only the man who has to pay the dowry, but the woman also has to prepare a rich dowry.
Commoners marry, perhaps the dowry and the dowry are still equal.
But when high-level nobles marry, the dowry is far beyond the dowry, and even reaches a gap of dozens of times.
It is because the female members of the contemporary family are not like the feudal dynasties of later generations, have no human rights, and have no right to inherit property.
Women within the Han family have the right to inherit their parents' property.
Therefore, in order to avoid siblings fighting for property and making jokes in the future, when marrying a daughter, the property belonging to her inheritance must be sent to the man as a dowry.
Therefore, Hanlu protects and supports the personal property of female masters.
Even if the two parties are separated, the female owner has the right to take away the dowry that belongs to her.
This is why, the independence of the female master in the Han Dynasty was extremely strong - the economic foundation determines the status of the family!
But it is precisely because of this that the nobles of the Han family generally do not like to have daughters.
There have been countless cases of female infants, especially direct female babies, being drowned.
Shangguan Ji picked up the wine bottle, took a sip slightly, and said with a smile: "Brother Xian is really well-informed......
But in my heart, I was thinking, which bastard is talking too much outside?
If it is a house slave, such a person will definitely not be able to stay!
Zhang Yue laughed and said, "The foolish brother also heard about it...... In this Chang'an City, there is basically nothing to hide from people......"
Shangguan Ji suddenly choked.
The gossip party in Chang'an City is well-informed and powerful.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that the contemporary aristocracy generally does not pay lip service to the door.
Actually, it's pretty good now.
During the time of Taizong and the first emperor, many people even discussed such things as rebellion in public.
At the beginning, Wu'an Hou Tianwei went to see Liu An, the king of Huainan, in private, and said: There is no prince on the throne, the king is the most virtuous, the grandson of the great ancestor, that is, the palace car Yan drives, who is not the king!
Then, the next day, the whole Chang'an knew about it.
Why?
Because the two of them said it at the gate of Weiyang Palace......
It is also because of this incident that the nobles of Chang'an City today know a little bit about secrecy and the fact that the wall has ears.
This is like the future Cannon King accidentally caught a handle for a scheming, and since then, all Cao fans will pay attention.
At the very least, I won't make that kind of low-level mistake again.
But Zhang Yue is not concerned about these things.
But......
He guessed that if there was no accident, this Shangguan Jie's newborn daughter would be the Shangguan Empress in history who was partnered by his father, grandfather, and grandfather.
The second Empress Zhang in the Han court.
When he was reading history in the past, Zhang Yue felt sorry for Zhang Yan and her.
Now I don't want to witness her birth.
Fortunately, history has changed, and her life may never be the same.
To commemorate the event, Zhang Yue prepared a gift.
He took out a piece of jade pendant from his arms, handed it to Shangguan Ji, and said: "I used to have to take care of my brother a lot, but now I hear that my brother likes to add love to his grandson, and he is just a small courtesy, and I hope that my brother will accept it with a smile!" ”
Shangguan Ji took the jade pendant, didn't think much about it in his heart, and said, "Then the foolish brother will thank the virtuous brother for his grandson!" ”
