Chapter 897: The Face Saint After Returning to Beijing
Zhang Ning asked himself for help, but Wang Fulin did not answer immediately, because he himself was hesitating. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Zhang Juzheng is easy over there, just tell the truth. But originally, he was just ordered by Zhang Juzheng to greet Mrs. Zhao in private, and then entered Beijing together, no need to care about other people, anyway, there are more lice and he is not afraid of itching, and it doesn't matter to him that this kind of thing is terrible, however, now he is on the same burden as Zhang Ning, and after returning to Beijing, he is bound to deal with the inquiries of Zhu Yijun, the emperor of Wanli.
Don't look at the Wanli Emperor who has just taken charge of the government, it seems that Zhang Juzheng still has the power alone, but this is because of the inertia of power. In principle, as long as the iron triangle of the cabinet Zhang Juzheng, the celebrant Feng Bao, and the Empress Dowager Li in the palace still exists, the Wanli Emperor will be suppressed three times, and the so-called pro-government is just an ornament. However, even if Zhu Yijun did not have the courage of Emperor Jiajing to face Yang Tinghe, and now it seems that there are no other connections except for a loyal eunuch like Zhang Hong, but it may not be that no one will choose to stand on the emperor's side.
You must know that the glorious deeds of Zhang Xuan and Guixu are there, and Lu Bing's power in the early years of Jiajing has only been a few decades, and Anzhi has no one who intends to follow suit?
Moreover, he is still haunted by the fact that his family was sent by Liu Shouyou to mix sand, and he is even more curious about the people behind Liu Shouyou!
Therefore, how to report to Zhu Yijun about Mrs. Zhao's sights and stories on the road, this is a problem.
Xinle, Dingzhou, Qingdu, Qingyuan. From Zhending Mansion, which is adjacent to each other, to Baoding Mansion, the group spent four days. And when he arrived at Qingyuan County, where Baoding Fuzhi is located, that is, Baoding Fucheng, Wang Fulin finally made a decision. He found Zhang Ning privately and whispered solemnly for a while. After explaining the matter of how to make the deal clear, he smiled and mentioned the alias entrusted by Zhang Ning before.
"Gonggong Feng's name is Shuanglin, and Zhang's father-in-law is called Rong Zhai, these two aliases are quite elegant, but now you are just following the hall, and these people with the deepest qualifications above are competing for elegance, that's really not interesting, I think, it's better to be vulgar, at least when people hear this nickname, they can suddenly realize who is it, instead of racking their brains to recall, which Gonggong Zhang is here, and some can't remember."
Seeing Zhang Ning nodding again and again, he smiled evilly: "So I thought about it and took two aliases for backup, one of which you don't scold me when you hear it, it's called Cathay, it's very simple, isn't Ning An?" Guotai Min'an, for the nobles in the palace, this kind of alias is very auspicious, but of course, it is too vulgar, and you will inevitably be scolded behind your back in the future. ā
To Wang Fulin's surprise, Zhang Ning really thought about it seriously, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed - he actually wanted to call Ping'an, but he didn't know how many eunuchs called this name, and several of them were very famous, so he simply dismissed this plan. He coughed dryly, and then continued: "As for the other alias, I suggest that you take it from the experience of the Hangzhou Beixin Tariff Supervisor. When Hangzhou was in the Southern Song Dynasty, it was once named Lin'an, which coincided with your Ning character."
"Cathay Pacific and Lin'an...... Sure enough, it's quite simple, in line with the level of my own alias, so that people won't say that I begged others to give me a nickname. Zhang Ning didn't mean to dislike it at all, but said with a smile, "In this way, I will pick one well, and ask me to say, the one in front of me is too meaningful, but Lin'an is really good, which not only matches my previous experience, but also reflects my name." By the way, have you come up with your own alias? Report it up and hear it. ā
Wang Fulin was relieved just because he had solved a task, and when he saw Zhang Ning asking this, he was stunned, and said embarrassedly for a long time: "Forget it, I'm only in my early twenties now, it's too early to give me an alias, I'll talk about it later." ā
In fact, I can't get up! Too boastful to take it out, too humble and feel unimposing, he wants to call himself Fengle Old Man when he is old in the future, he doesn't know if the elders and sages in Xixi South Village and Songming Mountain Village on both sides of the Fengle River will strangle him to death......
Speaking of which, it was easy for him to name his son Ah Mao who stayed in Huizhou to bring his parents, but he uncreatively followed the characteristics of Wang Daokun naming his son, and used a wordless in the middle. Although he once planned to name him Wuji, he was commented by Xiaobei as a second-rate legendary protagonist, and when he remembered his name, he was said to be like a useless homonym...... He's useless and ruthless, and he's already very level! At last he was so annoyed that he simply picked up his pen and wrote two words on the paper.
No matter what!
Whether it's good or not, you can do it! If you don't feel good, get up on your own!
As a result, this name, which seemed very bad to him, was completely approved by his parents and Xiaobei.
Zhang Ning didn't know that Wang Fulin was actually a bitter name, now that his alias had been solved, he let go of a major matter in his heart, and sometimes he walked around in front of Mrs. Zhao on the next road, and sometimes he was close to Wei Chaotao. Wei Dynasty was forty years old this year, he was Feng Bao's disciple, he was only a eunuch and a ceremonial eunuch in the War Bureau for two years, but one year he went out on a business trip, and it revolved around Zhang Juzheng's family, but he didn't complain at all. And Zhang Ning is clearly just a celebrant and a celebrant attendant, and he has just returned to Beijing, but he is still polite to him, if you don't know, it is difficult to imagine that he is one of Feng Bao's right-hand men.
Everyone walked and stopped all the way, and the day they arrived in Beijing was September 15. The lineup of those who came to work in the suburbs had been decided before Wang Fulin and Zhang Ning left Beijing, Li You, the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, Zhang Zhongju, the eunuch of Ciqing Palace, and Li Yong, the eunuch of Cining Palace. Of course, Zhang Juzheng, who was his son, also came in person, but this time, unlike the last time when civil and military officials went to greet Zhang Juzheng on a large scale, the scene was much smaller.
However, the welcome in the palace is still quite high-spec. If it weren't for Mrs. Zhao's tiring journey, she was already exhausted when she arrived, and Empress Dowager Li would even invite someone to the palace to meet her in person. Even so, these three eunuchs still accompanied the old lady Zhao until they were sent to the Zhang University Scholar's Mansion in Dashamao Hutong to settle down, and then they returned to the palace to resume their lives - but there were also Wei Chao, Wang Fulin and Zhang Ning, as well as Zhang Juzheng, who entered the palace to thank him.
After entering the noon gate, Zhang Zhongju and Li Yong went back to Ciqing Palace and Cining Palace respectively. As for the rest of Li You, Wang Fulin, Zhang Ning, and Zhang Juzheng, they have to go to see Zhu Yijun.
Zhu Yijun has always met with foreign officials, whether it is a banquet or a small court, it is in the Wenhua Palace, but today, the celebrant and eunuch Li You said that it was a matter of personal affairs for the first assistant, and it was inappropriate to reply in the Wenhua Palace. This is still a very fresh first time for Wang Fulin, who has been to the palace city a few times, but is limited to the Six Science Corridors, the Cabinet, the East Pavilion, and the Wenhua Palace.
Zhang Ning, a eunuch, is different, as long as he doesn't run around the harem, he can naturally enter a place like Qianqing Palace. It's just that at this moment, compared to Wang Fulin, Zhang Ning actually seemed more nervous. The reason is very simple, there are three or five thousand eunuchs in the inner and outer imperial cities, although he is among the celebrants, but he is only a courtier, and he has never been a close attendant of the Qianqing Palace before, he has been to the Ciqing Palace and the Cining Palace twice, but it is the first time to come to the Qianqing Palace!
As a person who has visited the Forbidden City in later generations, Wang Fulin walked in the Forbidden City, which still has a master, and not the ordinary people of later generations can also set foot in it casually, and he has to sigh in his heart, just like a house has an owner and no owner is completely different, now this palace city lives two queen mothers, an emperor, and many concubines, which is really different from the tourist attractions in later generations.
When he went to visit the Forbidden City at that time, he saw a large area of unevenness on the road, the palace looked acceptable from a distance, but it was mottled up close, it was simply gray, and only when he went out of the back door of the Forbidden City and went to the highest point of Jingshan Park could he see a trace of majesty, which was simply disappointing. But now, the glazed tiles on the palace are flashing dazzling in the afterglow of the setting sun, the carved beams and paintings and all kinds of colorful paintings are clear and gorgeous, the eunuchs who come and go are neat, the footsteps are small, well-trained, and before they arrive at the Qianqing Palace, there is a long-accumulated momentum coming to him, reminding him that this is not a scenic spot, but the supreme residence that now dominates thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.
In addition to the 369 court meeting, Wang Fulin had seen Zhu Yijun at close range in the Wenhua Hall a few times, but at that time it was only a relatively close distance, but because his position has always been lower than that of the bigwigs, although he can stand up when he is at odds with others, but it is too late to pay attention to the opponent, where is the kung fu to look at the emperor? Therefore, when he stepped into the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, seeing that the emperor's Sumeru seat was really not far from him, and Zhu Yijun's face was facing outside the hall, with the help of the dim light at this time, but it was still clearer than before, he quickly glanced at it twice, and then stepped forward to pay respects.
Since it is said that it is for the private affairs of Zhang Juzheng's family, it is not suitable to be in the Wenhua Palace, but to be summoned in this Qianqing Palace, so is it appropriate to ask and reply in the main hall of this Qianqing Palace?
Zhu Yijun didn't know that Wang Fulin was thinking about this kind of problem in his heart, he sat there upright, just like the imperial etiquette education he had always received, majestic but rigid. When Zhang Juzheng got up first, and Wang Fulin and Zhang Ning stood up one step back, he looked at them for a moment, but first looked at Zhang Juzheng, Wei Chao, and Li You.
After Zhang Juzheng thanked him, Wei Chao and Li You successively gave a formulaic reinstatement, he slowly spoke: "Mrs. Zhang arrived in the capital after more than two months, because of her advanced age, although she was accompanied by the celebrant Wei Chao all the way, but the two old ladies mentioned that they were a little uneasy, so I asked people to go to greet her. I was going to invite Mrs. Tai into the palace, but when I heard that Mrs. Tai was tired, I asked her to rest for a few days before entering the palace. Mr. Zhang, please take a good day off today, and go home to reunite with Mrs. Tai. ā
Zhang Juzheng agreed with a solemn face, and when he said goodbye, he didn't even glance at Wang Fulin more.
As soon as he left, Zhu Yijun continued: "Wei Dynasty worked this trip, rewarded ten taels of silver anise bean leaves, a silk dress, and gave ten days off and then returned to the celebrant to do business." ā
For the Wei Dynasty, the reward of ten taels of silver is still the kind of exquisite gadgets used in the game, which is really trivial, but the important thing is that he is not in the capital for a year, and his favor is still the same, which is the key to his foothold in the celebrant supervisor. Therefore, he hurriedly thanked him with a smile on his face.
The eunuch Li You followed the emperor's tone and said some words of gratitude from the ancestors of the Zhang family, and after the emperor nodded, he praised Li You a few more words, but did not reward anything. Hearing this differential treatment, Wei Chao naturally felt a lot more comfortable, after all, he had worked hard for more than a year to get ten taels of silver and a piece of clothing, and Li Youruo would undoubtedly be too unfair if he just went out of the city to greet him. When Zhu Yijun ordered them to go back to the celebrant to see Feng Bao, he kowtowed and resigned, and before going out, he couldn't help but secretly glance at Wang Fulin and Zhang Ning who were left, but he wasn't too worried in his heart.
Zhang Ning was brought up by Feng Bao, and Wang Fulin was selected by Zhang Juzhengchao, so he would not say anything wrong in front of the little emperor!
For Zhang Ning, Qianqing Palace is a completely unfamiliar place, and he has been out for a long time and doesn't know anyone who serves here. As for Wang Fulin, although he also didn't know anyone here, he knew an additional piece of information more than Zhang Ning - whether it was Zhang Whale or Zhang Cheng, they had all withdrawn from the core lineup around the little emperor, and the Qianqing Palace had been purged twice, and now these are all newcomers chosen by Zhu Yijun. However, just because a newcomer doesn't mean he won't be doped with sand, and he's skeptical about the safety of speaking here.
As soon as Li You and Wei Chao left, Zhu Yijun did not continue to stay in the main hall, but stood up and ordered Zhang Ning and Wang Fulin to follow him to Dongnuan Pavilion to talk.
It's not yet October, and the weather isn't too cold, but a charcoal basin has been burned in the house, which is warmer than the main hall. After sitting on an arhat bed, Zhu Yijun spoke: "The two of you accompanied Mrs. Tai to Kyoto from Zhending to Kyoto, and stayed overnight along the way, how did the heads of various prefectures and counties greet and send them off?" ā
This is a question that Zhang Ning had specially discussed with Wang Fulin before and was sure that Zhu Yijun would definitely ask. At this moment, Zhang Ning preemptively said: "Back to the emperor, when Mrs. Tai arrived at Zhentime, it was the Double Yang Festival of the Ninety-Nine Festival, and the Zhending Mansion gave Mrs. Tai mung bean porridge and a number of side dishes for clear porridge, as well as Chongyang cake and chrysanthemum wine. After that, most of the heads of the prefectures and counties were hospitable and made the most of their local specialties......"
Because of Zhang Ning's reminder to Qian Pu at the real time, Wang Fulin had an extra heart, and deliberately let people quietly let out the words that Mrs. Zhao was very satisfied with the hospitality when she was in Zhending Mansion, and now, in Qingyuan, in Liangxiang, and in Qingdu, all those county orders followed suit, and all of them were how light and how to send them to Mrs. Zhao, and they made this Mrs. Zhao's originally tired and fatty taste become tired and light. But in this way, Zhang Ning's detailed statement at this time seemed to be reasonable and well-founded, and even the frowning appearance of Old Madam Zhao eating bitter melon was vividly described.
And Wang Fulin saw Zhu Yijun's brows frowning slightly, not so much that he listened with great interest, but that he was a little unconvinced, and after Zhang Ning finished reporting, he said with a smile: "This trip to Zhending Mansion, the minister and Gonggong Zhang saw Qian Pu, the prefect of Zhending. ā
Sure enough, Zhu Yijun immediately asked, "Qian Pu?" Is it the Qian Pu that Mr. Yuanfu Zhang gave to Mr. Yuanfu Zhang when he went south to Jiangling to bury his father? ā
Wang Fulin suddenly felt a shock in his heart. It seems that whether it is Zhang Juzheng or Feng Bao, it is impossible to completely suppress people's words! No matter how you block the news, there will always be rappers who blow the wind in their ears in front of the Son of Heaven!
