Prime Minister

Chapter 623

Chapter 623

"Our Jianyang tea is good, the teacups are good, and the characters are even better. Today, I will use our Jianyang teacups to entertain fellow villagers!"

Dr. Cha served tea to the two, and Zhang Yue drank a cup. It was really sweet, and he couldn't help but praise: "Good tea!"

Chen Shengzhi laughed, and Wu Anshi smiled agreeably: "Mr. Chen said that the climate of our Jianzhou is naturally good."

Zhang Yue smiled, did Chen Shengzhi come to talk to him about the customs of his hometown today, or how to soothe the child's heart?

After everyone said a few words to pave the way for the atmosphere, Wu Anshi got up to leave.

This means that the conversation has entered the topic.

Chen Shengzhi said to Zhang Yue: "Duzhi, there are three levels of communication between people in the world. The first level is for profit. It's like two people making friends and getting what they need from each other. You helped me, I helped You went, this is an exchange of benefits."

"There is another level, which is human relations. The so-called monarch, relatives and teachers are also. I helped you, because you are my people, or relatives, or students."

"There is one more level, what is it that you can know? That is appreciation! I don't ask for anything in return, but I cultivate you with all my heart. At the beginning, I wanted Du to be my nephew's book boy, and that's what I meant."

Zhang Yue thought to himself, the book boy is the master and servant, so it turns out that admiring a person makes you his servant?Today is considered to have seen it.

Chen Shengzhi said: "The old man has no heirs, so my nephew is my heir. At that time, I also asked Du Zhi to take care of my nephew. There is no other intention."

Zhang Yue said: "Nephew Ling's name is Yu, and his name is Ziyou. I heard that he has already become Secretary and Provincial Secretary Lang."

Chen Shengzhi nodded and said, "Exactly."

"Then Mr. Chen is looking for me, how can I ask me to help you?"

Chen Shengzhi waved his hand and said, "It has nothing to do with my nephew..."

Oh?

Zhang Yue thought he was asked to take care of his nephew, but it happened that he had just been appointed as the imperial examiner.

Chen Shengzhi said: "Duzhi, I have a question for you, the Changping New Law that Lu Jifu and you presented a few days ago was actually drafted by you, right?"

Zhang Yue said: "This..."

Chen Shengzhi said with a smile: "If it's true, the old man guessed it was you."

"Duzhi is a man of great talent. It's a pity that the old man missed you at the beginning, but...it's not too late now."

Zhang Yue asked, "Is Mr. Chen going to use it?"

Chen Shengzhi nodded and said: "I have been an official in Beijing, and Mr. Han mentioned you many times in his letter. Mr. Han does not oppose Jiefu's reform, but it is inconvenient to oppose the young crop law to disturb the people."

"Now that Jiefu uses Lu Jifu as the head of the Third Department of Regulations, this man is ambitious to first take away your credit for the immunity law, and now he also takes the credit for the Qingmiao law. Don't you mind?"

Zhang Yue understood Chen Shengzhi's intentions, and Chen Shengzhi also wanted to change his ways, but unlike Wang Anshi, he didn't have a helper like Lu Huiqing around him, so he approached him.

Zhang Yue thought to himself, this man has vision.

Chen Shengzhi is scheming and resourceful, he has a good relationship with his father-in-law Wu Chong, he is from the same town as himself, and there is a mountain like Han Qi behind him, so it is a good choice to join forces with him.

Chen Shengzhi saw that Zhang was more interested, so he asked: "Du Zhi knows that the officials intend to use you to make patents, but Wang Anshi blocked it!"

Zhang Yue frowned, he was aware of this, he believed that Chen Shengzhi's words were [-]% to [-]% true.

But Zhang Yue thought to himself, but he stood in line with Chen Shengzhi in this way, and completely stood on the opposite side of Wang Anshi.

Zhang Yue asked: "Mr. Chen is more confident than Jiefu?"

Chen Shengzhi said: "For all the officials who have been removed from the posts of the two governments and can speak the truth, since the founding of the Song Dynasty, there is only one Sima Bachelor. Therefore, not only Han Gong, Wen Gong, but even all officials admire Sima Bachelor. From Emperor Renzong to the present , have you ever seen anyone beat Bachelor Sima, and can Wang Jiefu beat Bachelor Sima?"

Zhang Yue thought, yes, Wang Anshi may not be able to beat Sima Guang.But Sima Guang doesn't like you either, the so-called insidious evaluation of Fujian people is aimed at you.

It's also because of Chen Shengzhi's offending too many people for Han Qi, which made him get a bad reputation in court.

Chen Shengzhi said: "Now Mr. Zeng and I are complaining about illness, and all officials know that we oppose Wang Jiefu's young crop law."

"Su Zizhan also hoped that Mr. Zeng's mansion said that Mr. Zeng, as Prime Minister Zhaowen, could not suppress Wang Jiefu, but Mr. Zeng bluntly said that the officials and Wang Jiefu were as one, which made him helpless. Participating in politics and forcing Mr. How long have you been together?"

After what Chen Shengzhi said, Zhang Yue was really moved, as if Wang Anshi was in a precarious situation, and most officials opposed his reform, including not only his subordinates such as Cheng Hao, Li Chang, etc., but also his superiors Zeng Gongliang, Chen Shengzhi.

In addition to the official support, Wang Anshi seemed to capsize at any time.

At this time, if I join the camp against Wang Anshi, it is indeed a good opportunity.

But... but Zhang Yue is a time traveler, he clearly knows that in history Wang Anshi's resignation was not opposed by Zeng Gongliang, Sima Guang, or Chen Shengzhi.

It's just a picture.

The most important thing is whether the purpose of Chen Shengzhi's reform is the same as that of Wang Anshi's reform?

Wang Anshi's reform was a display of political ambitions, in order to make the country rich and powerful, although he promoted Lu Huiqing, Zeng Bu, Zhang Dun and others willfully.But his purpose is not to form a party for personal gain, just because these people support the new law and have talents at the same time.

But what about Chen Shengzhi?

He wants to reform because he is fighting for power and profit with Wang Anshi.

Therefore, considering any reason, Zhang Yue cannot accept it.

Zhang Yuezheng wanted to say no.

Unexpectedly, Chen Shengzhi said: "If Duzhi is willing to help the old man, the old man is willing to enlist you to know and make a patent!"

As soon as Chen Shengzhi said this, Zhang Yue swallowed back what he wanted to refuse.

Chen Shengzhi said leisurely: "Duzhi, a minister of the two systems who is less than 30 years old, although he can't reach the sky in one step, he is only two or three steps away from being in power."

"How many people admired Han Gong Wufa when he was in power, and it is no problem for you to be in power in the future with your talent and academic name. You might as well take the old man's words into consideration in your heart."

Zhang Yue admitted that he was really moved.

The minister of the two systems is the dream of the cabinet minister.

The so-called Zhizhigao refers to the people in the courtyard who specialize in drafting Zhigao, that is, the imperial edict issued by Zhongshu, which is called external system.

As for Hanlin scholars who specialize in drafting imperial edicts, such appointments are often more important and are called internal system.

Entering the Sherenyuan to draft the foreign system is not just drafting.If Sheren thinks that there is a problem with the drafting of the imperial edict in Zhongshu, it can be refuted.

At the same time, the imperial court will also convene ministers of two systems or above to discuss the general political discussions. Before the implementation of major reform clauses such as the exemption law, the officials will issue edicts for ministers of two systems or above to discuss.

If the waiting system is only a symbolic participation in national policy, it is not to mention the formulation of national policy, but the step of knowing the patent has really gained some power to influence national policy.

This status is incomparable.

If Chen Shengzhi agreed and recommended himself to become Zhi Zhigao, then even if Chen Sheng stepped down, even if he stood in the wrong line, he would have a certain amount of confidence.

Zhang Yue looked at Chen Shengzhi, and at this moment he had the feeling of seeking skin from a tiger.
