Chapter 296 drives the tiger and devours the wolf

Zhang Shixun shook his head and said with a smile: "Why do we need to come forward? ”

Lu Yijian was stunned, looked at Zhang Shixun, and asked puzzledly: "What do you mean by what Gong Yingguo said?" ”

Zhang Shixun stroked his beard and said confidently: "Xia Shouyun! What happened in the Imperial Palace that day, Lu Gong also saw it clearly. Although Xia Shouyun is incompetent, is he willing to leave like this? Give him a hint that if he wants to come to this idiot, he will do what the old man thinks! ”

"Any candidates?" Lu Yijian asked.

Zhang Shixun glanced at Lu Yijian and said with a smile: "It seems that Lu Gong already has a candidate in mind, why bother playing these tricks in front of the old man?" ”

Although Lu Yijian was aware of his thoughts, he was not embarrassed, and said calmly: "Han Ping, the record of Hezhong Mansion, and Xia Sui, the son of Xia Shouyun, have always been friends, and they are also quite loved by Xia Shouyun. However, he is also the old man's protégé, and he only needs to send someone to deliver a letter, and he will definitely be able to say that Xia Shouyun is moved. ”

Zhang Shixun nodded and said, "This person is very good, but just in case, the old man has a backup strategy here!" ”

"Gong Yingguo, please speak!" Lu Yijian made a gesture of please and looked at Zhang Shixun.

"Mao Zhen, have you heard of this person?" Zhang Shixun asked.

Lu Yijian thought for a while and said, "I have a little impression, who is it?" ”

"It's barely your protégé Lu Gong, but it's just from the Ming Dynasty." Zhang Shixun said.

When Lu Yijian heard this, he didn't feel anything, and bowed his head slightly. At present, there are two kinds of imperial examinations, one is the Jinshi department. Those who take the high school entrance examination are Jinshi backgrounds. The other one is the Ming Jingke in the mouth of Zhang Shixun. It's relatively simple.

The so-called Ming Jing is the Kaoti Sutra and Moyi. What is the Book of Thessalonians? That is, one page of the scriptures is uncovered, the left and right sides are covered, and only one line is opened in the middle, and then the three characters are covered with paper stickers to fill in the test. Moyi is a simple written test of the words and phrases of the scriptures. As long as you are familiar with the scriptures and commentaries, you can take the test.

Jinshike needs to rely on poetry, which requires a certain amount of talent and familiarity with a lot of scriptures. Know the allusions. Therefore, it is difficult to enter the Shike department, as early as the Tang Dynasty, there has been a saying that "thirty old Ming Jing, fifty young Jinshi".

Zhang Shixun just said Mao Zhen, Lu Yijian also remembered, it was forty-two years old before he was admitted to the Ming Jing Department, and he was the one who ranked relatively low. How could Lu Yijian remember such a character?

It must be known that at the level of Lu Yijian, it is said that thousands of protégés have been said to be small, and they have heard Lu Yijian learn for a few days. dare to say that it is Lu Yijian's protégé! Therefore, Lu Yijian really wants to recognize his protégé, let alone 10,000 people as a unit.

"Why do you talk about it?" Lu Yijian asked puzzled.

"He's a little guy though. But two years ago, he took refuge in Xia Shouyun and became his staff, wanting to get a good official position. But at the moment, Xia Shouyun is already a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect himself, as long as Lu Gong sends a letter at this moment, Xu County Cheng will give it to him, and he will definitely say what Lu Gong wants to say in front of Xia Shouyun! Zhang Shixun stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Lu Yijian also laughed, but he was secretly vigilant in his heart, Zhang Shixun may not have any skills in handling government affairs, but he is very good at power. I'll have to take it easy with this old guy in the future!

"Just let Xia Shouyun recommend Zhao Yu's position? Shaanxi is under the jurisdiction of soldiers and horses? Or was Xia Zhu promoted to the pacification envoy of Jingyuan Road, who stayed behind as the pacification envoy of Shaanxi Jingluo? Qin Feng Road along the border to pacify the envoy? Zhang Shixun suddenly asked.

Lu Yijian smiled calmly and said, "All the soldiers and horses? What is this? If you want to do it, you will naturally be a high-level one, didn't the imperial court propose to give Xia Zhu a position as an envoy? Wouldn't this position be better for Zhao Yu? ”

Zhang Shixun was stunned, and then laughed and said, "Lu Gong is a good plan!" What a trick to drive the tiger and devour the wolf! In this way, whether it succeeds or not, Xia Zhu is narrow-minded, and he will definitely regard King Wei as a thorn in his side! ”

Many of the functions and powers of the Northern Song Dynasty overlapped, and there were many overlapping powers between the envoy and the pacification envoy, and there was no privilege for the envoy to appease the envoy - to act cheaply!

With this right, Xia Zhu didn't need to report to the court if he wanted to fight Western Xia, and he would fight as soon as he said it. The envoy is different, although he can command all the soldiers and horses in the jurisdiction, his significance is to resist. If someone beats you, you can fight back.

If the position of pacification envoy falls on Zhao Yu's head, Zhang Shixun feels happy when he thinks about it, Xia Zhu's barbarian doesn't know what he will be angry about. Zhang Shixun couldn't help but say: "Do you want to exert your strength and let Zhao Yu serve as a pacifier?" ”

Lu Yijian finally knew the general situation, and said: "Shaanxi is not as good as other places, you have to be cautious!" But this is enough, with Xia Zhu here, Zhao Yu will definitely be suppressed. Zhao Zhu is not a person who is silently angry, it will definitely not be long before he will make trouble, and maybe even Xia Zhu will arrange some defeats for Zhao Yu to fight. It's a lot of excuses to take down Zhao Yu's little fox! ”

Zhang Shixun also felt that Lu Yijian's words were reasonable, and he no longer insisted on his opinion. The two exchanged opinions on some details, and Lu Yi simply retired.

Zhao Yu, who returned to the mansion, had a headache at the moment.

"Lord, I heard that you want to take a concubine, right?" Jiao Niang stood on the middle hall and looked at Zhao Yu with great resentment.

Although Zhao Yu accepted Hua Xiangrong, because he had no name, he did not take Hua Xiangrong to the palace. Although no one objected to Zhao Yu's desire to take it, Zhao Yu wanted to express his apologies to Hua Xiangrong over the years. Therefore, although he took a concubine, looking at the solemn act, those who didn't know were still married to a wife!

"Oh! There is such a thing! Zhao Yu pretended to remember suddenly, coughed, and said, "What's wrong?" Do you have an opinion on this? ”

"Don't dare! It's just that why didn't the prince take the little lady to the house? Now everyone in the house says that the prince is marrying a wife! Jiao Niang bit her lower lip lightly and said unwillingly.

Zhao Yu felt that he should still make his words clear, otherwise he would really have a headache if the courtyard caught fire. "It's the king's fault! Actually, I should have told you about this earlier! ”

Jiao Niang looked at Zhao Yu in a daze. Incomprehensible inner feelings. It is expressed through the expression on the face.

"Stand down, all of you!" Zhao Yu waved his hand to the servants and maidservants around him.

"Yes. Rajah! "The slaves and maidservants bowed and withdrew.

"What do you want to say, lord?" Jiao Niang's tone was a little more jealous, she still needed to maintain her demeanor in front of the maidservant, but when there were only two people, Jiao Niang vented her feelings a little unscrupulously.

Although it is the ancient age of polygamy, whether it is modern or ancient, is there a woman who really wants to share her love with other people?

During the Tang Dynasty, Tang Taizong heard that his prime minister Fang Xuanling only had one wife. And when he heard that his wife was a well-known jealous woman, he was angry. ordered Fang Xuanling to be rewarded with a beautiful woman, but Fang Xuanling's wife was naturally reluctant and forced Fang Xuanling to drive away the beauty. Tang Taizong summoned Fang Xuanling's wife, to the effect that this beauty was a reward for me as the emperor, and it was difficult to chase the so-called Chrysostom once it was opened. If you don't agree, then you don't respect the holy decree and you will have your head cut off. Do you want to be beautiful, or do you want to die?

Fang Xuanling's wife chose to die. Tang Taizong sent a cup of poisoned wine. Fang Xuanling's wife drank it without saying a word, and the result was vinegar. Even Tang Taizong couldn't help but admire Fang Xuanling's wife. Dismissal of the order given by yourself. Therefore, the word jealousy later appeared, a figurative word to describe women's jealousy.

Therefore, don't say that Jiao Niang will not be jealous.

Zhao Yu smiled bitterly: "Why do you want to do this? ”

"The concubine is jealous! Why don't concubines have this treatment? Is the prince going to abandon his concubine? When Jiao Niang said the back, her eyes couldn't help but burst into tears.

Zhao Yu's heart of pity rose, stepped forward, gently hugged Jiao Niang and said, "Okay, don't do this, okay?" I'll tell you a story! Once upon a time there was a woman ......"

After Zhao Yu finished speaking, Jiao Niang suddenly said: "What the prince said is Hua Xiangrong, right?" ”

Zhao Yu didn't hide it, nodded lightly, and said with some emotion: "Yes! She is also a poor person, and speaking of which, it is the king who has failed her! ”

"Why is the prince such a good person?" Jiao Niang closed her eyes, as if complaining, but also seemed to be proud.

Zhao Yu stretched out his hand and scraped Jiao Niang's nose, and said with a smile: "If this king was not a good person, he would not have bought you in the first place!" So don't be angry, you're all pathetic! ”

"Hmmm! ~" Jiao Niang nodded a little depressed, reached out and stroked her abdomen, and said, "Fortunately, the concubine is no longer alone!" ”

Zhao Yu stared at him and said, "This ...... Isn't that...... Is there one? ”

Jiao Niang lowered her head shyly, and said lightly: "Hmm! ”

Zhao Yu didn't know how to describe the excitement, as if he had been hit by a bullet. "This ...... When? Why don't you tell this king? ”

"I just found out today, I just wanted to tell the prince, but I heard this damn news!" Jiao Niang pouted, half dissatisfied and half coquettish.

Zhao Yu smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, aren't things all clear to you?" Why are you still jealous? ”

"Because the concubine is a woman!" Jiao Niang said confidently.

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yuden was a little speechless, but he was able to divert the topic and ask, "How old is it?" Listen to this king, will you kick your belly? ”

Jiao Niang seemed dissatisfied, but actually said with a happy face: "It's only been two months, where will the belly be raised?" Don't touch it, it's itchy, gurgle! ”

"Really? Let this king touch it! Zhao Yuwei said with a smile.

"Ahh Lord, you touched there. Jiao Niang suddenly let out an exclamation.

Soon there was a sharp moan. "Lord Wang...... Other...... Don't be here! And it's still daylight...... What about daytime! ”

"Don't be afraid, no one! And that's what makes it exciting! ”

It didn't take long for the sound of falling clothes to sound, the wheezing of men, and the moans of women.

Originally, Zhao Yu still wanted to hold a wedding with Hua Xiangrong in August, but Xia Shouyun's recommendation was sparse, which pulled Zhao Yu into a huge whirlpool.

"You know what? Xia Shouyun's guy actually left, and he was unwilling to leave like this, and he actually recommended King Wei to serve as Shaanxi's envoy! ”

"It's not, I heard that Shaanxi Jingluo appeased Xia Manzi to hear this, but the bookcase was overturned!"

"What is this, do you know what is in the excerpt sent today? Xia Zhu Shangshu wants to tell the old man to return to his hometown! Is this a farewell to the old man? It's clear that it's going to blackmail the court! ”

…………

The Imperial Palace

Song Renzong sat on the main seat, tilted his head sideways, rubbed his eyebrows with his right hand, and his sad face jumped out with joy.

Prime Minister Zhang Shixun, Prime Minister Lu Yijian, Governor Zhang Dexiang, Governor Song Zhen, Tongzhi Privy Council Secretary Yan Shu, Tongzhi Privy Council Secretary Song Shou, Quan Sansi Envoy Zheng Jian and other important ministers of the court are all standing at the starting point.

Naturally, there is no doubt that Zhao Yu, the king of the Privy Council, who is bookmarked, exists, but at this moment, Zhao Yu felt so awkward for the first time, and Xia Shouyun didn't know what to think, so he actually sent himself into such a whirlpool.

"You've all seen today's recital! Shaanxi, what is your opinion? Seeing that all the ministers below were silent, Song Renzong couldn't help but break the silent atmosphere.

"......" silence, in addition to silence, is still silence.

Song Renzong couldn't help but look around, and asked Zhao Yu: "Seventh brother, this matter has a lot to do with you, tell me what you think!" ”

Zhao Yu scolded in his heart, what can he think? After knowing Xia Shouyun's twists and turns, Zhao Yu's first reaction was to be stunned, and he was still thinking about what remedial measures to do. As a result, Xia Zhu, a barbarian, was so arrogant and had such a twist and turn, what opinion can I have?

It's just that under Song Renzong's questioning, Zhao Yu also had to say something. "The official family, the younger brother thinks that Xia (Shouyun) Xuanhui has an excessive reputation for the younger brother, how can the younger brother He De take on such a heavy responsibility? For Xia (Zhu) envoy, the younger brother will reply later, expressing his brother's apologies and asking him to take back the old man's return to his hometown. ”

Song Renzong bowed his head slightly at the top of the head, and Ah Zhu still knew the general situation, if he really competed for power and profit with Xia Zhu, a barbarian. I may be going to suppress Ah Zheng, although I am very sorry for him, but I can only do this for the sake of Da Song. Fortunately, Ah Zheng still knows how to advance and retreat, and he doesn't have to be embarrassed.

"Lord Wang, there is a difference in this statement!" At this time, Song Shou suddenly came out of the ranks, and as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhao Yu had a bad feeling in his heart.

Who doesn't know that Song Shou has a good relationship with Lu Yijian? No matter what he says when he stands up at this moment, it will definitely not benefit him.

looked sideways at Lu Yijian, who was standing on the side, and just saw him and Zhang Shixun exchanging a look, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Damn it! These two old guys join forces!

Although Zhao Yu hated it, he still did not lose his calm, and his mind flowed about how to survive the unknown crisis in front of him. (To be continued......)
