Chapter Thirty-Seven: Promotion to the Noble Family
Since Zhang Yi became a person from heaven, many famous families have rushed to throw olive branches to Zhangfu and Fengqiao, and the three mansions have chosen their good ones to cooperate, and the business has become much better than some time ago.
But after all, the Chen Mansion is a wealthy family, and under its vigorous suppression, even if the business of the Three Mansions improves, it will be difficult to return to the previous situation. What's more, Chen Shuwen is now the county magistrate of Longbow City, and as a county magistrate, he can suppress the three prefectures and the famous families they cooperate with in all aspects.
Under the double pressure, many famous families chose to quit.
Zhang Yi stepped into the mansion and saw more than ten Zhang Mansion family members under the command of Zhang Lin, constantly carrying goods into the mansion from the back door. Puzzled, he stepped forward and asked, "Zhang Lin, what are you doing here?"
When everyone saw Zhang Yi return home, they hurriedly saluted.
Zhang Lin stretched out his hand to invite Zhang Yi into the house, and then said in a muffled voice: "Xiao Yi, it's good for you to come back." During these days, the Chen Mansion has tried its best to suppress our Hefeng Mansion Qiao Mansion, and many businesses have been hit hard, and the most important thing is that several family members in the mansion are still being detained in prison by Chen Shuwen under the pretext of making excuses. ”
"Early this morning, the warehouse in Dongshi was raided by the county officials. We can only brave the heavy rain to transport the goods back to Zhangfu, otherwise we will definitely be soaked in the heavy rain, and all of them will rot on the street. ”
Zhang Yi then understood when it happened, his eyes were slightly drunk, and he smiled: "I heard that Chen Shuwen's atrium cracked again, but I didn't expect that I had only been away for a few days, and Chen Mansion couldn't help but attack Zhang Mansion again." ”
"They are just deceiving us that Zhangfu is a flat-headed people, even if we lease the shops of the government, they can take it back without authorization and change the term. Zhang Lin was furious, "If Zhang Fu is promoted to the prestigious family, and Chen Shuwen dares to do this, I will definitely impeach the imperial court and make him discredited in the county order assessment." ”
Zhang Yi calls himself a son of a poor family, not just a humble title.
Prestigious families, famous families, wealthy families, and families, each level is very different. However, even the lowest-class noble family has countless superior conditions compared to the poor family.
Zhangfu is not even a wang clan now, and it does belong to the ranks of the poor family. Take today's incident as an example, the shop warehouse leased by Zhangfu was raided by the county government, and the reason given by the county order Chen Shuwen was that the lease period of the shop warehouse had expired, and the people of Zhangfu had encroached on the imperial court property.
If Zhangfu becomes a prominent family, even if the county government wants to attack it, it must also issue relevant documents, otherwise it will be against etiquette. Zhang Yi can not only go to the imperial court to sue Chen Shuwen for violating the law, but can even go to the Shangli Palace, accusing Chen Shuwen of not abiding by etiquette and depriving him of the position of county order.
"In that case, let's promote the noble family. Zhang Yi smiled slightly, and through the continuous drizzle outside the window, his eyes didn't know where to look.
......
On the 14th of August, the autumn rain that had been falling for four or five days in Longbow City finally stopped. The Fuwen Academy, together with the county government yamen, began to organize the Mid-Autumn Festival for tomorrow.
The Mid-Autumn Festival, second only to Chinese New Year's Eve, is a traditional festival in the Tianyuan Continent, also known as the August Festival and the Moon Worship Festival; it is held on August 15 every year.
There is a clear record in the "Book of Rites", "The Son of Heaven is the spring sunrise, the autumn sunset", and the sunset moon is the sacrificial moon.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is even more grand in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and thousands of towns in the Great Zhou Dynasty will hold the Mid-Autumn Festival. Worship the moon, watch the tide, guess riddles, enjoy osmanthus flowers, play with lanterns, chant poems against each other, everything is available.
Xie Dongliu was practicing calligraphy in the study, when suddenly his jade knowledge shook, he looked at it and saw a young blue-robed person walking in from the main entrance of the Fuwen Academy, and went straight to the Hall of Sages.
The literary academy set up by the imperial court, down to the lowest county literary academy, up to the national literary academy of the capital of the hundred kings, there is a hall of sages in the south garden, which enshrines the statues of the great sages. Most of these great sages have passed away, and a few are still alive.
The Hall of Sages is by no means an ornament, as long as there is a major event, the reader can go to the Hall of Sages to ask the sages to adjudicate. Whether it is the existing great sage or the remaining great sage's will, they will make the most just way to deal with it, and even the great Confucian cannot resist.
The promotion of the Han family to the prestigious family, and the promotion of the prestigious family to the famous family, all need to apply for promotion in the Hall of the Sages, or the great sages are directly promoted. As for the wealthy families and families, even the great sages have no right to be promoted, they can only be assessed by Wenyun, and they will be automatically promoted as soon as they are qualified.
Zhang Yi's trip was to make Zhang's mansion promote to a prominent family on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The family members in the house were still detained in the county government, and Zhang Yi must not let them be separated from their families during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Zhang Yi had never been to the Zhongxian Palace, so he could only find the location of the Zhongxian Hall by asking the deacon of the Wenyuan. Walking outside the Hall of Sages, he saw the courtyard monarch Xie Dongliu standing in front, and he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"You want to promote Zhang's Mansion to a prestigious clan on this trip, right?" Xie Dongliu didn't smile, even if he was a familiar friend, he looked at Zhang Yi and was very concerned.
Zhang Yi nodded, and joked with Xie Dongliu: "Yuanjun guessed well, could it be that Yuanjun still thinks that I am here to sue the Chen Mansion with the sages?"
"I know everything about what Chen Fu did a few days ago, and there are indeed some pigs and dogs. I admire Brother Chen very much, but I didn't expect Chen Fu to behave like this, and it really tarnished his literary name. Xie Dongliu snorted and scolded Chen Fu a few words, and said to Zhang Yi, "Promoting the prestigious clan is indeed the best way to deal with it, but if you want to be recognized by all the sages, I don't know if the wealth you have accumulated now is enough?"
Xie Dongliu's worries are not unreasonable, if the background is not enough, and he is rashly promoted to a prestigious family and a famous family, it may cause dissatisfaction and punishment among the sages, and then the gains outweigh the losses.
Zhang Yi knew that Xie Dongliu was caring about himself, and said with a smile: "It should be enough to promote the prestigious family." ”
"Then let's go in. ”
Xie Dongliu knew that Zhang Yi had always been steady, and when he said this, he naturally didn't have to worry.
......
Zhang Yi stepped into the Hall of Sages alone, only to feel that he had come to a vast world, surrounded by vastness, and there was no edge in sight. It's just that thousands of statues are erected around, and each statue represents a great sage.
"Student Zhang Yi, meet all the sages. Zhang Yi bowed, his mind was clear, his eyes were clear, and he looked at the ground under his feet.
After a long time, a voice like Hong Zhong Da Lu sounded in his ears: "Zhang Yi, what's the matter with you?"
Each statue of Daxian is as high as 10,000 feet, and the head is hidden in the clouds, Zhang Yi doesn't know which Daxian it is.
Zhang Yi still bowed and replied: "Returning to the sage, Zhang Yi is the one who will be promoted to the heavens this year, and he wants to promote the Zhang Mansion to the prestigious family, and the sage will be rewarded on behalf of the sky." ”
"Get up. Since you want to be promoted to the prestigious clan, you need enough strength, what treasures do you have, present it to you. ”
There was another voice in the clouds, and Zhang Yi stood up straight. He took out the property of the title deed of Zhang's mansion and placed it in the open space on the left, and then placed the dragon wolf pen, the red dragon blood inkstone, and the first copy of the eight articles written by his own hand on the right side.
Only then did he arch his hand and say, "Please take a look at the sage." ”
