Chapter 850: Zhang Dan's Selfishness, Cai Jing's Weakness

Hearing Wu Haogu say that he wanted to help Zhang Shangying, Zhang Dian just smiled faintly, seemingly unmoved, and after a while, he asked slowly: "The idea is good, but it's still not enough!" ”

Inadequate? Do you want benefits?

Wu Haogu got a little closer, almost stuck to Zhang Dian's side, and asked with a smile: "What Da Di Weng wants, as long as the subordinate can get it, he will never refuse!" ”

Zhang Duan glared at Wu Haogu, but his eyes were no longer as fierce as when he was high in the past. He reached out and took the gourd with the iced sour plum soup and took a sip: "The old man is so old, will he still covet things outside his body?" ”

Is it? Wu Haogu's brain immediately turned, and Zhang Dian didn't care about the things outside his body - and he didn't lack this, his grandson-in-law Ji Yi was also a rich man!

And what about the people behind them? This Ji Yi is not in a rut.

Wu Haogu already understood, and said to Zhang Dian with a smile: "Zhang Zhiping is also a talent, but he lacks an opportunity to carry it forward. ”

Zhang Zhiping is Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan's fourth son, and also his favorite son, of course, the smartest and most capable son.

However, due to the mistakes made on the issue of Zhao Ji's accession to the throne, Zhang Yuan's career is destined to be bumpy!

Moreover, it is not only Zhang Yuan who is implicated by Zhang Dian, not even Zhang Yuan's own son, the children of the entire Pucheng Zhang family have been affected, and their promotion in the officialdom over the years has been at a rapid pace. If this continues, the glory of the Pucheng Zhang clan may end at Zhang.

Zhang Dian is now old and dying, and it is natural that these descendants who are destined to be bumpy are not relieved...... This is probably Zhangdun's selfishness!

And to let Zhang Yuan be of great use, so that the Pucheng Zhang clan can remain prosperous. The only way is to make a contribution...... By the way, I have mastered a little more strength!

If you have strength, the official family will have to reuse it!

"But Zhiping is a scholar!" Zhang Duan said slowly.

Wu Haogu smiled, "The scholar is in charge of the soldiers, which is in line with the Yiwen Yuwu of this dynasty." ”

Zhang Dian still shook his head, "But Zhiping won't lead troops to fight......"

"It doesn't matter," Wu Haogu lowered his voice, "Actually, Gao Shiyan won't either!" ”

"Oh?" Zhang Dian turned his head and looked at Wu Haogu with a smile, "He won't?" ”

"No!"

"Won't you be able to win the battle?"

"Yes!" Wu Haogu lowered his voice and said, "Actually, I sent someone who knows how to fight to help him...... Da Di Weng, I can also help Zhang Zhiping and ensure that he can become a famous Confucian general in history! ”

"Hahaha!" Zhang Dian looked up to the sky and laughed, "The old man knows that Gao Yu is not so capable!" Chongdao, your Yuntai Academy and the doctoral group are really full of talents! ”

Wu Haogu waved his hand, "You can't say that, you can't say that...... Moreover, those talents are also pearls in a certain hand, how can a certain businessman know how to use those Wang Zuozhicai? ”

"Hehe," Zhang Dian nodded, "The old man is long gone, so he doesn't care about this!" ”

He paused, "Well, since you can help Zhiping, then the old man will help you." ”

"Then the juniors will thank Da Di Weng."

Zhang Dian smiled: "Do you know where Cai Yuanchang's weakness is?" ”

"Please speak clearly."

Zhang Dian touched his beard, "Cai Yuanchang's weakness is that he is too greedy for power, and his means of coveting power is to do things for the superiors." No matter who is above him, it can be used very easily...... If you become a left servant and give him an officer, he can still be a dog for you. ”

Wu Haogu smiled bitterly: "Da Di Weng Mo makes fun of the juniors, the juniors are a martial artist, but they can't be the left minister." ”

Zhang Dian smiled: "It's hard to say...... Hehe, now is a big change that has not been seen in a thousand years! ”

He looked at Wu Haogu, and then said: "Cai Yuanchang can do things, and he is extremely smart, the old man can see the general trend clearly, and he can also see it clearly." But he will not completely ban your positivist learning, because he wants to do things for the official family, let the official family be prosperous, and open up the territory for the official family...... To do these things, it is not possible to rely on civil officials from the imperial examination!

Wang Jinggong knew about this at that time. Therefore, he wants to suppress your real school now, and he may want to ban some of them, but at the same time, he will definitely want to take the Biyong School Palace and Yuntai School Palace for his own use. Because he has to do things, and he has to do them well.

Moreover, Gao Shiyan's big victory in the northwest also whetted the appetite of the official family. He Cai Yuanchang can't be as strict as Gao Shi, right? ”

Wu Haogu asked tentatively: "He wants to take the position of the country's priest wine?" ”

"He'll take it!" Zhang Dian said, "Because it was Cai Yuandu who came forward!" ”

"Cai Yuandu?" Wu Haogu took a breath.

Now Huang Tingjian is so sick that he only has one breath left, and he has to go to see Su Dongpo at any time. As soon as he died, the place where the prince of the kingdom was in charge of the sacrificial wine was empty.

Now Wu Haogu wants to push Shi Guozhong to take over. But if Cai Jing launches Cai Bian, then Shi Guozhong will not be competitive.

Cai Bian is a big man who has been a ruler, and his Confucian knowledge is far better than Shi Guozhong. He is a high-ranking official and a low-ranking official when he is a sacrificial wine, how can Shi Guozhong fight?

Moreover, Su Zhe is very likely to have a consensus with Cai Jing on the selection of the Guozi Priest Wine!

"What should I do?"

Zhang Dian smiled: "Let Cai Yuandu make the sacrificial wine!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhang Dian whispered: "If you want to do things and can do things, you have to seize power and form a party...... If you want to recover Yanyun for the official family, you have to choose a general to train the army! Hehe, after all, the official family's surname is Zhao! Even a henchman like Gao Shiyan can only eat sand in Lingzhou, will he Cai Yuanchang have a good end? ”

That's right!

Wu Haogu sighed, in fact, Zhao Ji was not seriously suspicious among the old Zhao family's bunch of officials. But for more than 100 years, Zhao Song has been this system that has crippled himself. What can Zhao Ji do?

"Actually, Cai Yuanchang is not easy...... "Zhang Dian leaned into Wu Haogu's ear, "You just do it...... It is guaranteed that Cai Yuanchang can be sent to Haizhou to support the elderly! ”

……

Cai You walked briskly in his luxurious and magnificent courtyard, his face full of joy.

This courtyard is located in the New West City of Kaifeng Mansion, very close to the West Imperial City, and was "won" by Cai You from Pan Xiao'an half a month ago - Pan Xiao'an is famous for his "good betting" among the officialdom of Kaifeng Mansion, and he is bound to lose every gamble (his mantra is "Fortune is not good, you should lose a little")...... In the past few years, there have been millions of dollars of money exported. But I don't know why, others lose money and lose to the point of ruin, but his money is losing more and more!

However, today's joy on Cai You's face has nothing to do with winning a mansion in Pan Xiao'an, but has something to do with a person's death!

He just got the news that Huang Tingjian has passed away!

Su Dongpo, Li Gefei, Huang Tingjian...... In a short period of time, the high-ranking officials and bigwigs who opposed Cai Jing died one after another, which is really good!

Full of joy, Cai You walked through the courtyards, corridors, and finally to the back garden. This back garden is also extremely elegant, with small bridges and flowing water, rockery pavilions, and pools covered with dark green lotus leaves.

Cai You walked quickly across the small bridge over the pool, and when he arrived outside the pavilion, he arched his hand at the two people who were playing in the pavilion: "Father, uncle, the child just got the news that Huang Luzhi passed away last night. ”

The one who is playing against Cai You's father Cai Jing and Cai Bian who returned to Beijing to report on his work. The two old men were dressed in cool thin shirts and shook big fans. Hearing Cai You's report, Cai Bian sighed: "I didn't expect Huang Luzhi to go with Su Dongpo!" ”

Cai Bian sighed: "It's not worth this life...... The kokuko priest wine has also been made. ”

"I'm dying early!" Cai Jing shook his head, "If he lives a few more years, when his students make a name for themselves in the officialdom, he will definitely have to pay homage to the prime minister!" He suddenly raised his head and looked at his younger brother Cai Bian, "Yuandu, Biyong School Palace must be in our hands!" ”

He paused, "Now Zhang Zihou and Zeng Zixuan have opened the Gezhi Academy together, Zhao Mingcheng has become the secretary of the Qingcheng Academy again, and the Su family and Wu Haogu have also controlled the Yuntai Academy together...... If we can't take down the Biyong Academy, in another ten or eight years, there will be no one to do things for us. ”

Hearing this, Cai Bian's brows suddenly furrowed, "Big brother, aren't we going to ban Wu Haogu's pseudo-science?" Why is it still ......?"

"Of course, "Positivism" and "Rationality" must be banned!" Cai Jingdao, "If you don't ban it now, there will be chaos sooner or later in the future!" However, the learning of craftsmen who build bridges and roads, the medical skills of curing diseases and saving people, and the martial arts knowledge of fighting with soldiers are still very useful.

Wu Haogu wanted to use such a way of subtlety to replace the Confucian Dao and become orthodox, but of course it was not possible. But military attachΓ©s and trick officers can still use the students from the school palace. Especially the military attachΓ©...... The official family has already made up its mind to run a large number of government soldiers. If you want to run a large government army, you must have a group of military attachΓ©s who are born as soldiers. Didn't Gao Shiyan rely on the students from the Military Academy Department to kill all sides in the northwest? Therefore, these five university palaces should send military attaches and trick officers for the imperial court, rather than robbing the promotion of scholars from poor families. ”

"Yuan Chang, do you want to meddle in military training?"

Cai Bian already felt that something was wrong. This military power is in the Song Dynasty, but it is something that cannot be touched!

"The foolish brother knows it." Cai Jing said with a smile, "Today's officials do not agree with the past, and they are the first male lord except for Emperor Taizu since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty!" He wants to restore Yan Pingxia. Now that the western thieves have been calmed down, there is only Yanyun's homeland left...... Our brother has to do this for the official family. So we don't have to train this soldier, but we still have to put some thought into it. Otherwise, the official family would have to rely on Gao Yu and Wu Haogu to restore Yanyun.

If he wants to make great use of Gao Yu and Wu Haogu, then can you and my brother still be in a high position? ”

Cai Bian nodded lightly, "But without Gao Yu and Wu Haogu, who can supervise the army to restore Yanyun in the north?" ”

"Yuandu, how about you go to be a Xuanshuai?"
