Chapter 110: Aftermath
Sure enough, Jia Yu was led to Zhang Xiang's bedroom, but Zhang Xiang did not have to be sick in bed as Jia Yu imagined, but sat on a chair with a relaxed face, holding a teacup leisurely, and sipping tea one by one.
"Enhou is here, faster than I thought. Seeing Jia Yu coming in, Zhang Xiang said with a smile without standing up.
Jia Yu sat down angrily, and in vain he hurried all the way, for fear that something would happen to Zhang Xiang. Now Zhang Xiang is sitting here with a ruddy face, at this time he doesn't know that Zhang Xiang was acting in the hall before, he is stupid.
"With Enhou, a husband like you is indeed a blessing for Nan'er. Zhang Xiang sighed, when he offended the saint, he could immediately come to visit him, such a person is either a green onion or a righteous person, Jia Yu is obviously the latter.
Jia Yu picked up the teacup and poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and he immediately rushed over from the bottom to the back, and his mouth was indeed a little thirsty.
"What is my grandfather going to do? Although my grandfather took advantage of this incident to retreat, but with the careful eyes of the saints, this matter is not over. Jia Yu put down the teacup and asked.
"Cheng is also Xiao He, and Xiao He is defeated, the emperor's edict saved me, but also left a hidden worry. Zhang Xiang naturally knew what Jia Yu was referring to, and sighed deeply.
"But it doesn't matter, the thorn in the eye must also be in the eye to be called the thorn in the eye. Zhang Xiang said his plan in a relaxed tone.
"Grandfather, are you going to withdraw the entire Zhang family from the capital?" Jia Yu didn't expect Zhang Xiang to be able to break his arm, abandon the glory and wealth of the capital, and return to his hometown.
"Although I didn't get old, I was still able to return to my hometown. Zhang Xiang smiled and said: "Enhou, your father-in-law is a mediocre talent, if the Emperor Taishang is still there, thinking of my previous credits, it is a very simple matter for him to keep the Zhang family in the capital." But it is the Holy One of the Lords of the day who is in charge of the house ... “
Zhang Xiang shook his head when he said this, and then said firmly: "Don't say that you can keep it, it's good to be able to keep the Zhang family." Therefore, the Zhang family must withdraw from the capital. ”
The capital is full of imperial relatives and relatives, and high-ranking officials can be seen on the streets, but why do officials crowd into the capital? This is because the capital is the political center, and there are many opportunities for promotion, as long as you have some ability, you can show your face in front of the saint, and if you are appreciated by the saint, you will soar to the sky. Zhang Xiang recognized that he was old but his courage was still there, and he would rather give up these opportunities and take the entire Zhang family away from the capital.
"Grandfather, have you thought of this for a long time?"
"It's not that I thought about it, but I thought about it for a long time before, and I couldn't make a decision. Today's reaction made me know that this is not going to work. Zhang Xiang smiled bitterly.
Jia Yu was silent, Zhang Xiang had no way to do this, the saint desperately bit the family, Zhang Xiang was the highest-ranking official in the family before, and he must bear the brunt of anything. However, the withdrawal of the Zhang family from the capital represents the Zhang family's abandonment of the next two generations of descendants. The saint is in his prime, and he has reigned for at least 20 years, and if the Zhang family wants to avoid the saint, they have to stay out of officialdom for more than 20 years.
A lot can happen in twenty years, and twenty years can make the Zhang family change from a first-class family to a second-rate or even third-rate family. However, compared to the disappearance of the entire Zhang family, this price is insignificant.
"What does grandfather need me to do?" still has some respect for Zhang Xiangjia.
"Enhou, what can you ask grandfather, very comforting. But you don't have to do anything, just promise your grandfather to treat Nan'er well in the future, and don't bully Nan'er just because her mother's family is gone. "If Jia Yu really helped the Zhang family, Zhang Xiang was worried that Jia Yu would be embarrassed if he left the Zhang family.
"This grandfather can rest assured, Nan Nan is my wife and the wife of the Jia family. I'm not going to upset her. Jia Yu gave Zhang Xiang a guarantee.
"By the way, my Enhou will tell Nan'er the truth, so as not to worry her. As for returning to her hometown, don't tell her about it yet, wait until her fetus is stable, and if you want to leave anyway, you will have to wait until I am well before I prepare. Zhang Xiang commanded.
Zhang Xiang pretending to be sick can not only make the saint let down his vigilance and not set his eyes on the Zhang family, but also win the sympathy of other people's families, especially the emperor.
Originally, today's incident was caused by the emperor's people coming too late, and the emperor would be a little unhappy with Zhang Xiang, if Zhang Xiang fell ill because of this, the emperor would feel even more guilty, and there would be some compensation for the Zhang family.
Jia Yu stayed for a while and then returned to the Guogong Mansion, and in the evening the news came that Zhang Xiang had fallen ill. Fortunately, Jia Yu had already ventilated with Zhang's, otherwise Zhang's would inevitably have had fetal gas when the news came.
Along with this news, there was also the grace of the saints, and everyone spoke slowly, and what happened in the main hall could not be concealed at all. Zhang Xiang tried his best to persuade the saint to be dismissed, and he was almost afraid of losing his official uniform in front of everyone, and everyone sighed again and again.
Zhang Xiang has been an official for decades, honest and honest, has solved problems for the Emperor Taishang many times, and has done many things to benefit the people, and the people's impression of Zhang Xiang is still very good. In addition, although the Zhang family is a family, but it does not oppress the people, in recent years, under the influence of Jia Yu, in the winter, they will also take out food to give porridge, and the people have a good impression of Zhang Xiang's Zhang family, so knowing that Zhang Xiang was humiliated in the hall made the people cry out for Zhang Xiang.
In contrast, the saint who had just ascended the throne did not have any outstanding political achievements, and his reputation was not only far inferior to that of Zhang Xiang, but his means were too tough and domineering in this incident. Between the powerful saint and the victim image of Zhang Xiang, the people are biased towards Zhang Xiang.
The well-informed saint naturally knew what the people thought of him, and as a result, several copies of the recitals in the study were destroyed and thrown to the ground. The saint thought that this was the family's manipulation of the speech, so the people reacted like this, so his hatred for Zhang Xiang and the family increased a little.
Jia Yu sent Zhang's family to Zhang's house on the second day, Zhang Xiang is Zhang's grandfather, and his grandfather should go back to visit even if he doesn't need Zhang's illness when he is sick, so Jia Yu is also very generous to send his wife back to her parents' home. Zhang didn't know if he didn't know that after the Zhang family returned to his hometown in the future, it would be difficult for Zhang to see his parents, so he could only take this opportunity to let Zhang accompany Zhang Xiang and her parents more.
After Jia Yu finished sending the Zhang family, he turned around and went to the court, and the saint had a gloomy face throughout the court, and he was in an extremely bad mood. The ministers naturally knew what was going on, so they all trembled, for fear that they would make some small mistake and touch the saint's mold and let the saint use the topic to play. is still sane in the saint, and only reported the problematic officials, so how embarrassing it is for other people to be unlucky.
