Chapter 2: The Eye of the Son of Heaven, Knowing Current Affairs

The golden clouds above Wei Zhong's head represent loyalty, and the cranes on the clouds indicate good luck.

The clouds are divided into four levels, gold, red, blue, and black, of which gold is the most loyal and black is the anti-meaning.

And the Rui beast with luck is divided into two columns: civil and military.

Text: Yipin Crane; second-grade golden chicken; Three-grade peacock; Four-pin cloud goose; Five-pinned white pheasant; Six-pinned heron;

Wu: Yipin Lion; second-grade tiger; Three-pin leopard; Sipinshan bear; Five-grade rhinoceros, six-grade seahorse;

Under the royal family, different luck, representing different abilities, whether a person can sit in an official position, in addition to their own ability, more need luck, some people are obviously very capable, but as soon as they take office, they will be in trouble again and again, this is luck, and as for the back of the seven, eight or nine products have not condensed the beast at all, they can only be regarded as ordinary people, not to mention ordinary people.

Wei Zhong, although he is a eunuch, but Xiang Chi knew from the beginning that his luck was a first-class immortal crane, which can be described as a minister of the auxiliary country, with the addition of golden clouds, the special Jinyi Guard, except for him, no one can serve as it.

Xiang Chi looked at Wei Zhong, who was a little nervous, shook his head and comforted: "Don't worry, Zhang Xiang is a virtuous minister who governs the country, I won't touch him, but after all, he is old, and he has been taking on too hard work for the position of Zhongshu Ling. Zhang Meng, the deputy general of Yulinwei, was strong in martial arts and loyal to me, and was promoted to Yulinwei Zhonglang Army, in charge of public security in Kyoto"

The three divisions of Dachu are divided into powers, Zhongshu Province, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, the Imperial History Supervision Yuan, the Zhongshu Province controls the officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and six ministries, and Zhongshu Province Zhongshu Order, which is a real prime minister, since he has ascended the throne, it is natural to take it back and hand it over to those who completely obey him, and even carry out a thorough reform of Zhongshu Province, otherwise how can he, the emperor, be comfortable.

When Wei Zhong heard this, he immediately understood, and the whole person was much more relaxed, and said with admiration: "Your Majesty Shengming, reward the son and comfort the elderly, presumably Zhang Xiang must understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts."

"Don't be a sycophant, let's go," Xiang Chi waved his hand.

"Yes"

After Wei Zhong left, Xiang Chi thought slightly, then stood up and said, "Someone."

Soon, another little eunuch walked in and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, what do you command?"

"Take out the autumn sunset map that I searched for the Queen Mother, and I will personally send it to the Queen Mother," Xiang Chi commanded.

"Yes!"

。。。。。

In the afternoon of the same day, in the bustling Luoyang South Street, outside the main hall of a huge mansion, under a small locust tree, an old man with a short beard, full of white hair, imposing and deep-eyed was leisurely sipping tea, and an old servant with two maids stayed quietly behind him.

This person really went through the three dynasties of the Great Chu, the Zhongshu Province Zhongshu Order, the Prime Minister Zhang Youzhi, the twenty-year-old Jinshi and the first, successively served as the governor of the state Fa Cao, Dali Temple Cheng, the history of the Imperial Palace, the history of Yangzhou Thorn, and finally entered the Zhongshu Province step by step, as the first minister in the Xuanzong period, and held the book province for more than ten years.

"Father, we're back"

Soon after, two young men came behind Zhang Youzhi, one was elegant and the other was majestic, one was wearing a big Chu black gauze hat, a regimental collar shirt, and a belt for official clothes, and the other was tall, dressed in gorgeous armor, and a sword at his waist, it was really Zhang Youzhi's two sons Zhang Fu and Zhang Meng.

Zhang Youzhi had four sons and two daughters, but the eldest son died early, and the second son joined the army, and unfortunately died in a border war in Dachu, so only two younger sons remained, but fortunately, the two two sons did not live up to his expectations.

"Father, why did you suddenly summon us back," Zhang Meng asked with some puzzlement.

"Your Majesty, you're going to let me pay attention," Zhang You said flatly.

"What" Zhang Fu and Zhang Meng were taken aback, but after glancing at each other silently, they did bow their heads.

After waiting for a while, Zhang Youzhi glanced back and said with a smile: "You have only been in the East Palace for two years, and you are so loyal to Your Majesty that you don't even care about being a father."

"Father, Your Majesty will never touch you," Zhang Fu said with certainty.

"So, you also think it's time to retire as a father" Zhang Youzhi's voice suddenly turned cold.

"Father, if you really don't want to, my eldest brother and I will enter the palace immediately," Zhang Meng hurriedly comforted.

Zhang Youzhi's eyes froze, and then he laughed loudly, "Awesome, Your Majesty is really powerful, when he was the crown prince, Taoguang was obscure, but once he took the throne, he instantly controlled all the situations in the court, for my father to ask you, the five governors of the five armies of the Governor's Mansion, how are they to Your Majesty?"

"The five eldest brothers, after His Majesty's major founding feats, carefully selected, whether they are martial arts or military strategy, they are far more than us, and they are absolutely loyal to Your Majesty, the five eldest brothers are five sharp swords, they are gradually controlling the Governor's Mansion, if anyone dares to disobey His Majesty's decision, they will immediately take action" Zhang Fu said solemnly.

Zhang Youzhi's face sank, "Your Majesty is an only son, why do you hide it so deeply"

"Father should know that no matter how great his ability is, he can't cover his father," Zhang Fu said.

Zhang Youzhi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "I see, that Fu'er, why do you trust Your Majesty so much"

"I don't say anything else, but as long as I follow Your Majesty, I feel at ease," Zhang Fu replied honestly.

"Peace of mind," Zhang Youzhi wondered.

"Father, Your Majesty likes Taiping, but he is not afraid of war, Great Chu in His Majesty's generation, maybe there will not be any amazing achievements, but the national Zuo will inevitably continue, as long as Your Majesty is here, the Chu Kingdom will continue to prosper" Zhang Fu said.

Zhang Youzhi's face moved, and after being slightly silent, he sighed very much: "Okay, Your Majesty Shengming, Taiping, Taiping, these two words are more precious than anything else!" For my father is so old, in fact, it is time to retire, but I am worried that Your Majesty's blood is strong and the country is turbulent, and I hear your words today, I don't have to worry about my father."

"Father, that"

"I lied to you just now, Your Majesty didn't say that I should leave, but I just canonized you separately, Fu Er, from tomorrow, you will enter Zhongshu Province and serve as a Zhongshu squire" Zhang You said straightly.

"Zhongshu Province" Zhang Fu's eyes flashed with excitement, that is the highest authority of Dachu.

"My father knows what His Majesty means, and he arranged it this way, one is to compensate me, and the other is to trust you, but you remember to your father, my Zhang family needs to be loyal to Da Chu for generations, do my best, and pay for the prosperity of Da Chu, if you don't do well, even if you are my son, I will definitely say it, let you go as far as you can, don't cholera government" Zhang Youzhi said seriously.

"Yes, Father"

"Meng'er, you have been promoted to Yulin Wei Zhonglang Army, the official position is only under the Zuo Du Governor of the Central Capital Governor's Mansion, the Royal Dragon Guard guards the imperial city, and Yulin Wei is responsible for the security of the imperial capital, your responsibility is very heavy, and if something goes wrong, it is here for you, so if you don't understand, please consult Fu'er"

"Yes"

"The reason why Your Majesty is so sudden, it is estimated that it is because I am above the court, opposing the establishment of the Jinyi Guard, it seems that Your Majesty is extremely dissatisfied with the supervision of the imperial history of the Imperial History Terrace, before the first emperor left, he also said that the rule of officials is the next top priority, since it is unstoppable, then take advantage of the trend"

"Fu Er, after you enter the middle school, you will write to ask Your Majesty to set up a brocade guard" Zhang Youzhi stood up, he can stand for so many years, just because he knows the three words of current affairs, sometimes persistent toughness, not only useless, but will get worse and worse.

"Yes, father," Zhang Fu responded.
