When Zhang Chao woke up, he felt that this was the sweetest sleep he had ever slept in since he crossed over, because he hadn't felt such a deep and good sleep for several days. And now he finally got a good night's sleep, and he was very comfortable. And the first thing he did when he got up was to destroy the piece he had written, after all, this kind of thing can't be poked out, otherwise there will be endless trouble. After all, since ancient times, the reform of officialdom, especially the reform of the bureaucracy, has faced a lot of resistance. So if this piece of music of mine flows out, then I'm afraid that many people will come to Zhang Chao's bad luck, so Zhang Chao naturally wants to destroy that piece as soon as possible. Anyway, this piece of music just makes him enjoy it, and he doesn't really need to present this piece to Emperor Li Yuan, and now it must be destroyed.

"Huh? Why is the piece missing? Where did we go, we remember to put it here? Zhang Chao scratched his ears and cheeks and said.

And when Zhang Chao muttered, a scribe immediately came over and said, "Master Zhang, are you looking for the piece just now?" I have already sent him to the emperor, and this time I saw that you were asleep, so I didn't bother you. ”

The so-called "Director Zhang", that is, Zhang Chao's official position, his official title is called the head of the Ministry of Officials, which is equivalent to the first senior clerk of the Ministry of Officials, and his status is probably equivalent to the status of the assistant researcher in later generations, and it belongs to the rank position from the eighth grade.

"Smack!" Zhang Chao sat down on the ground from the chair, he didn't expect such a result.

"You--why did you give the recital to the emperor!" Zhang Chao said angrily.

And the scribe immediately asked: "Didn't you write it on it and present it to the emperor?" ”

"Did I let you present it to the emperor? You've killed me! Zhang Chao scolded.

And the scribe was speechless, and slapped his own ass on the horse's hooves, and ended up with such a result.

And Zhang Chao hurriedly asked: "Can it still be recovered?" ”

"I'll ask right away!" The scribe said.

And soon, the scribe came back and said, "I can't catch it back, the chapter has already arrived with the emperor, and I don't know when the emperor will personally approve it!" ”

Zhang Chao really wanted to hang himself, he actually did such a stupid thing. I wrote a method for evaluating and promoting officials, so that I just hope to have a good time, so that I can get a good night's sleep. But in order to get addicted, others don't know! Therefore, this scribe also sent the chapter to Emperor Li Yuan, which is really a big deal. If Li Yuan sees it at that time, then what will Li Yuan think, this will definitely be troublesome. At that time, those vested interests will not dare to deal with Li Yuan, the emperor, and they will not have to use their own petty officials to open the knife! Reformers have been able to have several good ends since ancient times, especially in this very "uncivilized" era of political struggle in ancient times, and they all have to lose their heads at every turn! So Zhang Chao really wanted to cry, and his music was actually sent to Emperor Li Yuan.

"Hands, hands, why are you so itchy! Can't you bear it? Why do you have to write it out and live a hand addiction, is it just a hand addiction will die! Zhang Chao thought.

Zhang Chao finally realized the feeling of the chopping hands in Taobao in later generations, because he was excited for a while, he bought a lot of things, and later regretted it and called for chopping hands. But this is really not a problem that can be solved by chopping hands, this may have to chop off your head! Zhang Chao is very depressed now, if chopping his own hand can save all this, then he will definitely come to chop his hand without hesitation. But it was precisely because he knew that if he chopped off his hand, there was no way to undo all this, so he was able to endure not chopping his hand.

"I just hope that Emperor Li Yuan won't pay attention to it!" Zhang Chao said in his heart.

However, sometimes what you are afraid of is what you are afraid of.

"Which one is Zhang Chao, the head of the Ministry of Officials?" A eunuch from the palace came and asked.

And everyone was immediately surprised, what did the eunuchs in this palace want to do when they came here? The eunuchs all serve the emperor in the palace, at most they convey the emperor's orders, and replace the emperor to urge and supervise their subordinates to complete their work. And now he actually came to find Zhang Chao, that is, to find Zhang Chao instead of the emperor, which means that no matter what, the emperor has Zhang Chao in his eyes.

"Father-in-law, I'm Zhang Chao!" Zhang Chao said very much that he wanted to cry.

"You are Zhang Chao? Come with me, the emperor has summoned you to see the emperor in the Liangyi Palace! The eunuch said.

And Zhang Chao is really remorseful now, because the things he was most worried about have also happened, that is, Emperor Li Yuan took a fancy to his own recital, and actually attached great importance to it, and called himself to the Liangyi Hall to meet the emperor in person. You must know that the emperors are all noble and busy people, they have a lot of opportunities every day, where do they have time to meet the ministers casually? You must know that if a five-rank official wants to see the emperor, it is also a very complicated process, not just to see it. And he is an eight-rank petty official who has just entered the officialdom, and he is even more qualified to see the emperor at all.

But now Emperor Li Yuan actually took the initiative to summon himself, this is really the green smoke on the ancestral tomb. And the officials around him also looked at Zhang Chao one by one, obviously with envy. It's only been a few days since I came to the ministry, and I was able to get the emperor's reception. You must know that although the officials are working in the palace, it seems to be only a small distance from the emperor, but it is close to the end of the world! Countless people want to see the emperor, and then maybe they will be appreciated by the emperor, and then they will rise step by step.

Those who can do this are very lucky few! Now that Zhang Chao has only been in the Ministry for three days, he has obtained this opportunity, which has made countless people envious, jealous and hateful! But no one knows, Zhang Chao regretted all his intestines, he really felt like he had chopped his hands.

"Father-in-law, see if I can prepare, I saw the emperor for the first time, so I was nervous! If there is any 'dereliction' at that time, it will not be good. When the time comes, the emperor will be unhappy, and that is why I have offended! Zhang Chao said.

The so-called fear of "losing his manners" is just an excuse made by Zhang Chao. He has been an official for 20 years in his previous life, and he was even treated as an outstanding member of the department to be received by the head of state. He also hoped to think of some ways through this time, and then fool this emperor over. As long as the emperor can be fooled, then this crisis will be resolved.

"Okay, hurry up, I'll go and report to the emperor first, hurry up!" The eunuch said.

And then, those officials also came to congratulate Zhang Chao.

"Director Zhang, congratulations! It's only been a few days, and I've been received by the emperor! And I've been here since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, but I haven't seen the emperor! One guy said helplessly.

And the other immediately said: "Director Zhang, when you came a few days ago, brother, I helped you!" When the time comes, you will be appreciated by the emperor, and then you will soar into the sky, don't forget my brother and me! ”

"Yes! No matter what you say, it's also our officials who went out, but don't forget our brothers! ”

Many people thought that Zhang Chao was going to be appreciated by Emperor Li Yuan, and then soared into the sky, and many people wanted to get up. After all, above the officialdom, it is the norm to have red and white roots, and now Zhang Chao looks like he is going to be popular, so naturally many people want to follow the ride!

"Your grandfather's, it's already good to be able to save his head this time! If you still want to follow me to the sky, I'm afraid it's hard. I'm afraid that if I lose my head then, you will all want to kick me away and fall into the well! Zhang Chao said angrily in his heart.

Zhang Chao, as an official who has been a man in two lifetimes, can he not know that in the officialdom, people are all cold. When someone is in trouble in the officialdom, most of the other colleagues will not help you speak, but will take the opportunity to step on you. Even those who are qualified to squeeze your position are eager to give you a few falling stones! Don't look at these guys talking so enthusiastically, but in fact, once Zhang Chao is in danger, they will definitely come over and step on Zhang Chao a few times, and then they can't wait to beat the drum like ten thousand people.

And I don't know how many people's interests will be lost in my previous concert, so this kind of thing can't be careless! Zhang Chao stuck in his head and thought hard, trying to come up with a way, and then let himself be able to fool the past. But he thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of any good way, after all, this Li Yuan is not a parallel import, he is the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if it is a straw bag parallel import, can he create a dynasty? So Zhang Chao feels that his end has come, and it is really very dangerous.

"Your grandfather's, am I going to be the shortest-lived traverser? It's really easy to reform in other novels, but it's not easy for me to reform here, and all kinds of vested interests are very powerful. If you don't play well and get involved in this turmoil, your head may fall off. Zhang Chao hurriedly thought in his heart.

"Okay, do you have to do it? The emperor asked me to urge, hurry up with me to the Liangyi Palace to meet the emperor, and then let me tell the emperor what you think. The eunuch said.

And Zhang Chao still wanted to say: "Father-in-law, wait, wait!" ”

"No, the emperor is very anxious and wants to see you! What kind of grace the emperor has given you, you are still so spitting and grinding, what do you want to do? Come with me to the Liangyi Palace, and then go to see the emperor! The eunuch said.

The eunuch pulled Zhang Chao out of the ministry, then walked through the palace, and then came all the way to the outside of the Liangyi Palace.
