Looking at the back of Zhang Xuān and Cui Ying walking away, Zhang Jiuming sighed softly

"Sister-in-law, third brother, I am good at Longshuo for a year, and my experience has become more mature, calm and sophisticated, and the old man didn't expect that he would behave so calmly Now that he is good at it, it is no longer something we can see through."

"Who would have thought that the Chang'an gentleman in the past would become a very popular minister today, famous all over the world, and become the leader of my Tang Dynasty court, and make great achievements? If the eldest brother has knowledge, he should also be pleased with Jiuquan. Zhang Jiugao said with emotion

"It's cold in the heights. When it comes to the powerful position of being a good child, in fact, it is like walking on thin ice, and if you are not careful, it will cause a big disaster, especially for a few of your juniors, you must be more self-disciplined and cautious when acting outside, so as not to let people seize the handle, cause trouble for the reins, and ruin his future! ”

Zhang Jiyong smiled indifferently: "General Chen doesn't want it."

Even though Zhang Xuān is imposing, but the official handles it according to the law and enforces the law impartially, what else can he say? Moreover, this matter involves the relatives of the official, and the official has recused himself, and the case is handed over to the deputy Yin Malu of Jingzhao Mansion. As for Zhang Xuān, he should also avoid suspicion. ”

In fact, the main reason why Zhang Jiyong has no fear is not because of the "law" and "public heart", but because he misjudged the situation, he thought that the old emperor exiled Li Linfu's clansmen and relatives to Lingnan, and now the old emperor is still alive, and the imperial court has not issued an edict of pardon, so Zhang Xuān operated with his own strength and placed the remnants of the Li family in the capital, which in itself is a disgraceful thing. Since this is the case, it is a matter of the Li family, and Zhang Xuān does not dare to speak out publicly and make things bigger.

Of course, even if Zhang Xuān made it, he relied on Li Heng's support, and Zhang Xuān couldn't do anything with him. He had already expected that in order to balance Zhang Xuān and Yang Guozhong, Li Heng could only continue to support the Zhang family.

As for Zhang Jiyong, he didn't have to punish Li Tengkong, but took the opportunity to hit the face of Yongning Palace.

The reason why this is so is nothing more than to suppress Zhang Bo's momentum, and at the same time show the "might" of the Zhang family, a relative of the country, and his Zhang family, which is also a political consideration, and has nothing to do with personal grievances.

Judging by the conventional angles, there was nothing wrong with his considerations. But he inadvertently overlooked an important issue, Zhang Xuān was not an ordinary Tang minister. Perhaps he didn't realize that today's Zhang Xuān already had the power to determine the situation in the Tang Dynasty.

At the very least, for now, Li Heng will stand firmly on Zhang's side, and most courtiers will choose to support Zhang.

As for the affairs of the Li family, with Zhang Xuān's cautious style of doing things, since he had accepted Li Tengkong as a concubine with great fanfare that day, he had already arranged a way out. Before taking a concubine, he had already obtained an edict from Li Heng to pardon the rest of the Li family, but the edict was not made public.

In this regard, Yang Guozhong, who single-handedly drove Li Linfu's family out of the capital, remained silent, not to mention other courtiers. When Zhang Xuān took a concubine, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty gave gifts, and even Li Heng had a gift. Now Zhang Jiyong is using this to "pinch" Zhang Xuān, which can only show that he is politically immature.

Seeing that Zhang Jiyong insisted on going his own way, Chen Xuanli didn't say anything more. It's useless to say it, it's better not to say it.

However, Chen Xuanli secretly became a little vigilant in his heart. He is becoming more and more apparent, with the gradual rise of the Zhang family's power, the expansion of Zhang Jiyong's personal rights yù is becoming more and more obvious, and the so-called "alliance" between the two is gradually disintegrating because of the unequal status.

Zhang Jiyong is currently the secretary of the Tongzhong Shumen and the head of the household department, with real power, is the de facto prime minister, and his status in the court is second only to Yang Guozhong, and is basically on par with Chen Xian. And Chen Xuanli is just the general of Yulin Wei Zuowei and the marquis of Weiyuan, and he slowly fell behind Zhang Jiyong's ass.

Zhang Xuān galloped back home with the Yu Hujun.

After receiving the news that Zhang Xuān was about to return to the mansion, the Yongning Palace's mansion was decorated with lights, and all the clansmen of the Zhang family, including most of the servants shì women, lined up to greet them on both sides of the wide and majestic mansion gate, their eyes eager.

Zhang Xuān galloped all the way, and a luxurious mansion with a new look and a doubling in size gradually appeared in his eyes. And the golden plaque of "Yongning Palace" at the top of the door is eye-catching.

And more than ten meters in front of the house out of the center of the street, a tall and solemn merit archway stands, two stone drops placed on both sides.

Zhang Xuān stopped the horse, waved his hand, and all the guards stopped the horse in unison, and the horse neighed.

Zhang Xuān turned over and dismounted, smiling and running towards his mother Liu, his wife Cui Ying, his eldest brother Zhang Huan, his second brother Zhang Ning, and his two uncles Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao.

"Zhu'er!" Liu exclaimed in a trembling voice, his eyes ruddy.

"Mother! Two uncles, two brothers! Zhang Xuān let out a sigh of relief and bowed down.

At this moment, his mood was also slightly moved. has traveled to the Tang Dynasty for so long, he has long been integrated into this era and this royal society, and he also has a corresponding sense of belonging to this famous family.

"Zo'er, get up!" Liu helped Zhang Xuān up.

And Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao patted Zhang Xuān on the shoulder with a smile, "Shan'er, the whole family gathers here, welcome you to return triumphantly and make meritorious contributions to the imperial court!" Zhang Xuān smiled: "Uncle, my lordship is overrated. The reins are ashamed. ”

Zhang Xuān greeted Liu and his two uncles and elders, and said a few words of farewell. As for the other relatives of the Zhang family, such as Zhang Huan, Zhang Ning, Zhang Jiuming, and Zhang Jiugao's children, they could only stand far away, looking at Zhang Xuān with envy and awe, and their expressions were slightly respectful.

Zhang Xuān is now a very human minister and a prince, and he naturally has an invisible momentum and majesty on his body, even if he is a relative, he secretly has a little awe.

At this time, the Yu family slave shì girl knelt on the ground respectfully, and shouted loudly together, "Welcome to the triumphant return of the prince, glory back 1 Cui Yingqiao's face was slightly red, and her eyes looked at Zhang Xuān like water, but she stood behind Liu Shi and did not step forward.

Zhang Xuān looked at Cui Ying, and saw that his wife was as delicate and soft as before, and a different kind of tenderness slowly surged in his heart, a tenderness that mixed longing and love.

"Ying'er!" Zhang Xuān exhaled softly.

Cui Ying came forward with a red face to salute, and said softly, "Concubine, welcome Lang Jun home!" "Huā Hall.

The direct relatives of the Zhang family were all present, and Zhang Yi sat there, listening to his wife Cui Ying tell Li Tengkong from beginning to end.

Including Zhang Xuān's mother, Liu's family, just when the family thought that Zhang Xuān would be furious when he heard the words, Zhang Xuān sat there calmly, as steady as Qin Mountain. Only Cui Ying could read a trace of unparalleled anger in Zhang Xuān's eyes that gradually became cold.

"Ying'er, you sit." Zhang Xuān said softly, then slowly stood up and bowed to the elders such as the Liu family, Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao, "Mother, the two uncles, the reins are not in Jingshi, and everything in the family is annoying to the elders." As for empty matters, I will deal with them myself, and please don't worry about the elders. ”

Zhang Xuān took a step forward, his smile calm and indifferent, without showing any emotion.

Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao exchanged a look, Zhang Jiuming said, "Good boy, this kid is also doing things improperly, Li Xiu owes Zhang Qing a young loan shark, just thirty yuan of money, just pay back that guy from the house, why make such a trouble?" Zhang Jiugao said in a deep voice, "Rein, that Zhang Jiyong is pampered and arrogant, relying on the favor of the emperor's relatives and His Royal Highness the Prince of the Prison State, there is no one in his eyes, and he is bullying, this time you come back to Beijing to see how he ends!" Zhu'er, the top priority is to rescue Kong'er first, and don't let this child suffer in the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion. Liu interjected on the side, "Rein, no matter what, we can't be afraid if we don't cause trouble, Kong'er is also an old daughter-in-law, and we can't ignore her." ”

The corners of Zhang Xuān's mouth twitched slightly, and he said lightly, "Kong'er should be fine, and my mother and uncle don't have to worry about it." Mother, uncle, two brothers and sisters-in-law, and the reins were about to enter the palace to have a banquet with His Royal Highness, so they said goodbye and changed their clothes first.

Zhang Xuān gave a group salute for a long time, then took Cui Ying's hand and slowly turned around, striding out of the huā hall.

Looking at the back of Zhang Xuān and Cui Ying walking away, Zhang Jiuming sighed lightly, "Sister-in-law, third brother, I am good at Longshuo for a year, and I have become more mature, calm and sophisticated, and the old man didn't expect that he would behave so calmly Now that he is good at it, it is no longer something we can see through." "Who would have thought that the Chang'an gentleman in the past would become a very popular minister today, famous all over the world, and become the leader of my Tang Dynasty court, and make great contributions to the world? If the eldest brother has knowledge, he should also be pleased with Jiuquan. Zhang Jiugao said with emotion: "The so-called high places are not cold. When it comes to the powerful position of being a good child, in fact, it is like walking on thin ice, and if you are not careful, it will cause a big disaster, especially for a few of your juniors, you must be more self-disciplined and cautious when acting outside, so as not to let people seize the handle, cause trouble for the reins, and ruin his future! ”

Zhang Jiugao pointed at Zhang Huan, Zhang Ning and other juniors and said loudly.

Zhang Huan, Zhang Ning, and the children of Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao bowed down together and responded, "My nephew (child) is taught, and we will never dare to cause trouble outside, please rest assured that my uncle (father) is at ease!" Liu Shi smiled lightly and said, "Our children are respectful and polite, without those unruly habits, the old body has watched these children grow up, and my heart is relieved." ”

Zhang Xuān returned to his bedroom, only washed his face, washed away the dust along the way, but did not change his clothes, and was still wearing that armor.

Like smoke and jade, his little face turned red, and his eyes flashed on the side.

Zhang Xuān has not been in Chang'an for so long, and these two little girls miss and care about him very much.

Cui Ying sat beside him obediently, but her brows were slightly furrowed.

Zhang Xuān squeezed Cui Ying's little hand and said softly, "Ying'er, it was the puppet's doing, don't worry about it, let me deal with it slowly." ，…

"If there is a mistake in the air," Zhang Xuān's voice suddenly became extremely cold, "I will let Zhang Jiyong die without a place to be buried!" Cui Ying's heart jumped suddenly, and then she realized that her own Langjun had been suppressing his anger and anger, and acting calm did not mean that there was no surging bōlan in his heart. It's just that with Zhang Xuhan's current status, it is impossible to be angry at the crown easily.

After speaking, Zhang Xuān waved his hand to Ruyan Ruyu and waved his hand, "Ruyan, order someone to quickly call Li Xiu to the mansion, if Li Xiu can't get up, let Zheng Ping come over." ”

Like smoke and took the order.

"Ruyu, let Zhang Zhang hold my name card and ask the young Yin Malu of Jingzhao Mansion to come to the mansion." Ruyu didn't dare to slack off, and immediately agreed to run out.
