Chapter 329: Don't Regret
When Chen Zhi was talking and explaining to Emperor Liu Dai in the palace, the news that he had been summoned to the palace also quickly spread in Luoyang City, bringing more confusion in thinking. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Chen Zhi was summoned to the palace? At this time, why did the emperor summon him to the palace? ”
As the powerful Shangshu Zuocheng, Zhang Ying was one of the officials who got the news earlier, but this news made him feel extremely confused, and immediately summoned Wang Bu over, and asked with a face: "If you don't say that things are foolproof, Chen Zhi must be unlucky?" ”
Wang Bu's face was not good, he also got the news, and couldn't help but say: "Benefactor, the student really didn't lie to you, and you also know the situation, then the Xu family is interested in finding trouble with Chen Zhi, so that Xu Jiguan can be reinstated, and the students cooperate with them, and the connections on both sides are added together, so that many academies come to the door, just to force him Chen Zhi to mess up, and the result is the same, why did the emperor summon Chen Zhi, I really don't know." ”
"You're light!" Zhang Ying's face was ugly, "This is not his Chen Zhi's business, how Chen Zhi did in the Taile Department, it is all a trivial matter, but it is just an excuse, my real intention is to take his business as an opportunity to seize Chen Yong's sore feet and force him to cooperate with my Zhang family in Ma Zheng, now the connections and relationships have been notified, and the benefits that should be given have been given, if it is because of Chen Zhi alone, the whole thing has changed, who will be responsible for this loss?" Will you come and make it up to me? ”
Cold sweat flowed from Wang Bu's forehead, and he hurriedly said: "Benefactor, don't worry, in my opinion, even if the emperor is biased, but the affairs of the academy involve many big families, and the emperor can't say a word." ”
"Let's get sure!" Zhang Ying narrowed his eyes, "The emperor can't be said in a word, but with him coming forward, we can't do many things, it's hard to say whether Chen Zhi can do anything, many people are not optimistic about him, but everything has to plan for the worst, the reason why I dare to contact all parties when the situation is unclear and promise benefits is because, no matter how ignorant the situation is, I can also turn the situation around through my connections and develop in the direction I want, but the prince agreed to Chen Zhi's invitation, which would have disrupted the plan, if the emperor was also involved." How do I intervene? ”
His words just showed a meaning, that is, originally, no matter whether Chen Zhi could do what he said or not, the dispute in the academy would be cured, and with the intervention of the powerful forces of the Zhang family, this matter could be turned into an opportunity, but as soon as the emperor opened his mouth, the matter had to be grasped successfully.
Wang Bu didn't argue, nodded and said: "Don't worry, my subordinates will go to the Xu family and discuss with them, after all, it is the Xu family who comes forward now, and we will help, I believe that with the strength of our two families, it is enough for the remaining few people to no longer accept Chen Zhi's invitation." ”
"Well, indeed, although the situation has changed, we must not let Chen Zhi's momentum climb any further, and we must eradicate it from the source." Zhang Ying nodded, suddenly thought of something, then narrowed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Chen Zhi will never be satisfied with just inviting everyone in the article, judging from what he said in the Taile Department, his purpose must be more than one, music, calligraphy, and even painting skills, etc., I am afraid that everyone will be invited next, since this is the case, then I will have to cut off his thoughts in advance!" ”
"Subordinates understood!" Wang Bu nodded, "Before he really acts, let's settle these many things, so that Chen Zhi can't be invited!" ”
"That's it! Go, go, don't let me down again this time," Zhang Ying waved his hand, sent Wang Bu away, and then pondered for a moment, and recruited another person, who was his steward, "You go to Yu's house, send an invitation to Yu Liang, and ask him to come over tomorrow to taste tea, and say that the old man has a new precious and good tea." ”
"No!"
………………
"Brother Chen, I heard that the emperor still left you to eat in the air? This is a great favor, and many ministers have also made great contributions, or have enough qualifications and age to receive this honor. ”
Late at night, Chen Zhicai came back from the palace, and was greeted by the amazement of Tao Ya and others, usually at this time, they had already slept, but today they were worried about something, so they were all waiting in the courtyard.
"Brother Tao, what you said, Brother Chen has also made great contributions!" Without waiting for Chen Zhi to speak, Liu Gang was a little unhappy, "Then Liu Yuan's death is inseparable from Brother Chen!" It's his great work! ”
Tao Ya smiled: "It's extreme, it's extreme, it's me who lost my word." ”
"A few of us, there is no need to say these polite words," Chen Zhi laughed, "Then Liu Yuan's death, Chen Mou just coincided with the meeting, and it can't be considered a credit at all, if it weren't for the situation in the imperial court, how could it be counted on my head?" Outsiders don't know what's going on, and there are many misinformation, so that's it, why do you also speak like this, it's inevitable that you have seen some outsiders. ”
"Hahaha!" Zhao Xing laughed and said: "In short, this is a good thing, a happy event, I have already prepared the wine and food, and I am waiting for Brother Chen to come back and drink." ”
"At this time, there is still a banquet." Chen Zhi also laughed, didn't say anything late at night, and didn't mention that he had eaten in the palace, so he immediately responded.
A group of people immediately sat up, drank heartily, ate and drank, and asked about the things in the palace and what Chen Zhi and the emperor talked about.
Chen Zhi did not hide it, so he said the general story of the matter, but the book he used to explain had been left by Emperor Liu Dai, and he looked through it repeatedly, as if looking at a treasure, and now he could only explain it to a few close friends out of thin air, but fortunately, Chen Zhi said it in a clear manner, and Tao Ya and others were also smart people, and they quickly heard the key inside, although they didn't understand it in many places, they also faintly noticed the convenience.
"If it's really as Brother Chen said, once this golden melody review is established, then the way of music and rhythm can indeed be compared, but in this way, will those defeated academies be willing?" Liu Gang raised his own questions.
Chen Zhi said: "This involves a cycle of problems, because this temporary name of the Golden Melody Review is not just held once, every time it is held, it is actually a competition, and the disputes on weekdays are directly gathered together to break out." ”
"I see, I see, I see." Lu Ying's eyes lit up, "In this way, this dispute has not disappeared, but has been controlled and constrained, and because there are many authoritative people joining and appraising, the evaluation obtained is undoubtedly very representative, and no one will raise objections on the spot, and even if some people are dissatisfied, because they know that there will be a next evaluation, they will put their energy and the whole into the usual practice, waiting for the next opportunity." ”
"This is a good thing," Zhao Xing also nodded and smiled, "Even if you don't consider it from the perspective of this dispute, just say this evaluation, let many people come forward to evaluate, this is not easy in the past, the original Yuedan evaluation, many people ask for it but can't get it, after all, everyone tastes it, but it can not be sought, in contrast, with such an opportunity, for those college students, it is sometimes more meaningful than the ranking itself." ”
"But ......," Tao Ya asked, "If you want to complete what Brother Chen said, I am afraid that it is not enough to have the support of the emperor, after all, the emperor cannot forcibly order the celebrities to come over to taste, and if Brother Chen's matter is to be completed, it undoubtedly requires the participation of many celebrities and scholars. ”
Chen Zhi nodded and said: "It's really not a simple matter, but there is no need to worry, because participating in the tasting is also a lot of benefits for celebrities, which is why I want to make an agreement with the two academies of Shouzhuo and Nanshan. ”
"Opportunity? What chances? ”
"A chance to take their fame to the next level!" Chen Zhi looked at the person in front of him, said slowly, and then changed his words, "Okay, let's drink until this time today, there is still one day before the agreed time, and I will invite a few more people tomorrow, and at the same time take a look to see if the Taile Department has already been arranged." ”
"It's okay, tomorrow is also a critical time, so I won't bother when I wait." Tao Ya and the others dispersed, "Brother Chen, I don't know how many people in this city are staring at here." ”
"Naturally, we can't let them down."
With such an idea, early the next morning, Chen Zhi and Liu Gang continued to invite everyone in the article, and the first one to visit was Luo Xun, who had visited once before.
"The old man has already thought about it, so he won't participate in this matter, and with the prince coming forward, I believe it is enough."
This Luo Xun is not young, about fifty years old, his residence in the city is elegantly furnished, there is water and pavilion in the garden, and when he meets Chen Zhi and the others, which pavilion is it.
It's just that this person's reply made Liu Gang shocked, and after listening to it, he couldn't help but ask: "Master Luo, didn't you say before that you would give us a satisfactory answer if you think about it, why have you changed your hexagram now?" "The previous time, Liu Gang also accompanied Chen Zhi here, and heard that this Luo Xun was quite tempted at that time, the so-called consideration is just a form of prevarication, highlighting his identity, so Chen Zhi and they will be the first to find him today.
Unexpectedly, this person's attitude suddenly changed.
When Luo Xun heard this, he was not annoyed, but smiled and said: "Liu Sheng, the old man said that he thought about it before, and it was naturally a decision made after weighing the pros and cons, how can it be called a change of hexagram?" That's not right. ”
"But......" Liu Gang was about to say more, but saw Chen Zhi stretch out his hand to stop.
Stopping his friend's words, Chen Zhi stood up directly and said with a smile: "Since Luo Lao has decided, I will naturally not force it, but there are some things that I want to explain to Luo Lao." ”
"Oh? But it doesn't hurt to talk about it. Luo Xun smiled lightly, looked at Chen Zhi, and didn't care, he actually broke his word, but he had already agreed with the Xu family about the conditions, and he didn't talk about Chen Zhi at all.
Chen Zhi naturally understood the reason behind this, and said: "I hope that Luo Lao, you will not regret your choice today!" ”
