Chapter 895: Hidden worries must be removed

Military households, guards, weapons.

Zhang Yue is most concerned about these three major events now, and of course he is not completely out of the way of other things, but after all, his energy is limited, he has more ideas, and he has less real hands. Since the beginning of the first month, he not only went to his father-in-law's house every three or five times to have a meal and talk, but even the Yang Mansion, which he used to go to less often, has become a place where he often comes and goes. This is not only because he helped Yang Ji a lot in Layue, but also because Xiao Wu often goes to the Yang family to prescribe medicine to Mrs. Yang these days, and now that the emperor has returned to the court, most of the important military and political affairs are entrusted to the cabinet.

Therefore, Zhang Qi was sent to take office on this day, although Tianci mentioned Fang Rui's matter to him, but he only sent someone to Zhang Bu to give an extra advice, and did not pay too much attention to it.

It wasn't until he got there that he found out that he was not the only one who came, but also his father-in-law Du Zhen, as well as the Zuodu Imperial Shi Gu Zuo and Shen Du Shen Cang brothers of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. If others knew, they would definitely say that this was nothing more than an old-school gathering of Yang Ge.

Yang Shiqi loves to recommend people, Du Zhen and Gu Zuo are all recommended by him, although the Shen family brothers did not recommend it to Zhu Di, the Yongle Emperor, but the personal relationship has always been very good, not to mention Zhang Yue, the table word is still taken by Yang Shiqi and the Shen family brothers. As for Gu Zuo, although he is stern and lonely on weekdays, he doesn't like to associate with people, but the gatherings in the Yang Mansion are all gentlemen's friends, and there is no burden on each other, so he gradually got used to it. Although Zhang Yue came to Yang Mansion a lot, it was the first time he had participated in this kind of gathering.

Although the man was sitting at this moment, he felt a little uncomfortable. Du Zhen was already his mentor and father-in-law, and among the people present, except for Shen Cang, who was in the prime of life, everyone else was older than Du Zhen, so he felt a little funny when he looked around. However, when Yang Shiqi coughed lightly and began to speak, all his cranky thoughts were thrown away.

"King Lu and King Xiangfu will return to their fiefdoms in three days, and in addition, from March, the kings will be divided one after another. Because of the inscription in Yishan and the heated debate in Hongwen Pavilion, there is quite a lot of discussion among the kings now, but because of the events in Layue, these are all suppressed. After all, it was about a few days before the Jin clan was going to be escorted to the capital. These things are not secret, the cabinet only knows about them a night before you. The most important thing is that this time the king of Yue did not go to the vassal, it was proposed by the queen mother. ”

In the eyes of the government and the opposition, the Shen Du and Shen Cang brothers are all courtiers who have received divine grace purely through calligraphy, and they are not even word ministers, but everyone here knows that the two of them are just honest and clumsy, and they are unwilling to fight. At this moment, after being silent for a while, it was Shen Cangtou who asked, "The Queen Mother made such a decision because of this incident?" ”

"It should be." Yang Shiqi had dealt with Empress Dowager Zhang when she was still in the East Palace, and knew the temperament of the Empress Dowager, so he sighed and nodded, "In the past, Renmiao was in the East Palace for twenty years, and it has always been the assistant of the Queen Mother, and it was the same after Renmiao ascended the throne, so the Queen Mother does not take power, but she has the ability of Sasuke." And the emperor is unwilling to be the king of the shoucheng, although it will not be like the Taimiao several northern expeditions, but it is quite possible to leave Beijing to inspect, this time the queen mother is still in the palace and there is something to do, so the queen mother intends to stay in the capital alone, after all, His Royal Highness the prince is still too young. ”

Because this was the idea of the Empress Dowager Zhang and not the emperor, Zhang Yue didn't hear much in advance, thinking that the Empress Dowager Zhang had never told others that Yang Shiqi was also tight-lipped. After pondering for a moment, he didn't care about his youngest and least qualified, and asked directly: "Elder Yang Ge, why is it King Yue and not King Xiang?" It is necessary to know that Xiangwang is wise, this is almost everyone knows. ”

"The Queen Mother mentioned it to King Xiang, but since King Xiang knew about King Liang, he blamed himself for intersecting with King Liang since he was a child, but he never saw that he was wrong and did not persuade people to come back, so no matter what the Queen Mother said, he refused to stay in the capital." Yang Shiqi himself had also gone to see King Xiang at the behest of Empress Dowager Zhang, and saw that he had lost weight in just a month, but he was still stubborn and did not listen to persuasion, so he could only shake his head at this time, "As for King Liang, this time he is naturally not among the vassals, and he was banned from the west because of his drunken disobedience." ”

Naturally, no one will care about the reason for being banned in the west, after all, this is already a tacit fact for everyone, only when they heard that King Xiang refused to stay in the capital, several people shook their heads and sighed, and even Zhang Yue, who was asking, was a little regretful. At this time, Du Zhen finally spoke: "So, Brother Shiqi brought everyone here today for this matter. I know that my inscription about the feudal king's attack is still being debated, but there should be no precedent for the matter of King Yue. If the king of Yue lived in the capital, other relatives would inevitably follow suit in the future. After all, King Yue is not King Wei. ”

Although the Queen Mother's illness has only now been announced to the world, and everyone knows that a doctor has been summoned into the palace, and the Emperor of the Lantern Festival even sent the Queen Mother to the city tower to watch the lanterns, but among the courtiers, all those who are well-informed have already understood what was going on before, not to mention that Zhang Yueyuan knows everything, and just sent someone to check the details of the doctor the day before.

At this moment, everyone talked a few words, Zhang Yue pondered for a long time, and finally said softly: "As far as I know, the Queen Mother's sick hospital was helpless before, and this Imperial Doctor He had a reputation among the relatives, and then he was invited by various nobles and nobles, and then recommended to enter the palace. ”

This is extremely vague, but the person who is qualified to sit here is extremely good at speculating the truth of the matter from a little clue, and at this time, even Yang Shiqi, as the convener, was shocked. Du Zhen has always been moody, but he frowned slightly and said: "Yuan Festival, such a major event cannot be speculated. ”

Zhang Yue stretched out his hands helplessly and said: "Sir, there is no need to speculate on this matter, where else can I go up to find evidence?" ”

"Yishan, Yuan Jie is right, this article alone is naturally not enough to explain anything, but it has to be guarded against."

Yang Shiqi glanced at Du Zhen, and saw that the others were also silent, so he asked in a low voice, "What do you think?" ”

Gu Zuo is usually stern, but he is not a serious person who is not afraid of conspiracy, after all, he himself almost crossed the aisle. Seeing that the others didn't speak, he opened his mouth and said: "Don't be careful, now the prince is still young, and the king of Yue is also the son of the first emperor, and he will stay in the capital for a long time, for fear of being taken advantage of by traitors, it is better to divide the feudal domain according to the original intention of Renmiao." ”

Shen Du is the oldest, and he either doesn't make suggestions in court affairs, and if he has suggestions, he often hits them in one fell swoop, so he easily doesn't express his opinions. However, in such a small gathering in the Yang Mansion, he naturally could not maintain his usual silence. After groaning and groaning, he turned to Zhang Yue and asked, "Yuanjie, according to your meaning, what are you going to do?" ”

"After all, this matter is just a reason, and it is not easy to say it in front of the Queen Mother or the Emperor. Renmiao sealed the king of Yue in Quzhou, which now seems a little far away, but at that time, Renmiao wanted to relocate the capital to Nanjing, Quzhou is far away from Beijing, but it is very close to Nanjing. Now, if you appease the Queen Mother, change the King of Yue to a place a little closer to the capital, and set a three-year dynasty, you may be able to comfort the Queen Mother's heart. ”

Hearing this, Yang Shiqi and Du Zhen exchanged glances and smiled at the same time. Although Gu Zuo was a little hesitant, he nodded in the end, not to mention the Shen brothers, Shen Cang smiled even more: "Yuanjie's idea is not bad, if the king of Yue is closer, the queen mother will not have so many worries, and the emperor will not be embarrassed, as for the first thing, we don't need to worry about it, as long as there is a reason, won't Jinyi Weidong Factory still go to investigate?" If you really want me to say, it is better than Shandong. ”

"There is a Han king in Shandong, and the meaning of that place is not good, but it is still Henan."

"Henan already has the King of Zhou, and the pioneer King Zhao is sealed there again."

"One is Zhangde Mansion and the other is Kaifeng Mansion, right...... Isn't there still Shunde Mansion? ”

Hearing a few people, Zhang Yue was already sitting there silent, Yang Shiqi made up his mind in his heart, so he waved his hand to interrupt everyone's discussion, and said with a smile: "Since this matter is so decided, we should report to the emperor for a royal decision when we go back, and we don't need to go beyond the bounds." Having said that, although the Hongwen Pavilion Sutra Feast is good, it is annoying to listen to too much noise after all. The emperor will summon all the ministers to appreciate the calligraphy and painting in Wenyuan Pavilion after some time, and you can all go back to prepare. ”

Zhang Yue had heard of this matter before-in terms of being well-informed, he often had eunuchs from the yamen who were the celebrant come over, either to run errands or to take things and send messages, so he had known about it for a long time. In the final analysis, although his calligraphy skills are only good at regular script, he has been dealing with brushes for so many years, and he is half a disciple of the Shen family. Therefore, seeing that the others were interested in asking for details, he had to ask for advice or two.

A group of people had dinner at Yang's house, and talked about articles and poems for a while, and after a while, Yang Shiqi stood up and said with a smile: "I have to go to court tomorrow, so I have to disperse early." After getting off on another day, it's not too late for everyone to get together again. ”

are all close friends, Yang Shiqi just sent them to the door of the study, and the eldest son Yang Ji sent everyone to the door one by one. Although the weather is a little warmer now, after all, it is still cold, and everyone is on mule carts. The Du family and the Yang family were very close, and Zhang Yue sent his father-in-law home by the way, and then rushed to his home.

He just entered the house, and now Lian Sheng, who was transferred back from Zhuang Shang to help Gaoquan's housekeeper, came forward: "Young master, Young Master Xiao Fang came in the evening, and waited for you at home for a long time. At this time, the old man still has someone to talk in the study. ”

How long has it been, and Fang Jing is still there?

Zhang Yue remembered that it was already the right time when he left the Yang Mansion, and it was past the night curfew at one or three o'clock earlier, and he usually came over and would never stay so late - after all, even if this honest boy didn't care about what others said, he didn't want others to say that the Zhang family was not. Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, he thought of some bad things, and after asking Lian Sheng a few more words, he sped up his steps. After entering the second gate, he first asked people to go to Du Juan's place to say a word, and then rushed to his father's study.

Now Zhang Yue is an official in the capital, and the family finally does not have to separate the two places as before, so Zhang Zhuo of Zhishi lives a much more leisurely life, during the day or go out to visit friends, or take care of the industry, or visit the famous places in the imperial capital, the three study rooms are used less, and they have changed an extremely chic name, called Xiaoyaoju, and only four scholars are used to take care of them on weekdays. At this moment, Zhang Yue arrived at the door, and a scholar wearing a thick felt wool cloak was waiting under the eaves with his hands folded, and when he saw him, he quickly pulled his throat and reported inside.

"You're finally back." As soon as Zhang Yue entered the door, Zhang Zhuo, who was sitting in the middle, smiled and said, "Xiao Fang has been waiting for you here for a few hours, and I still have to talk about it, so he can be regarded as opening his mouth." I have already sent people to tell your daughter-in-law, and she has done it so that nothing will happen. ”

Won't something happen? So that means there is still a possibility that something will happen?

Although his father spoke in a casual tone, Zhang Yue didn't underestimate it, and looked at Fang Jing thoughtfully, so he asked bluntly, "But it has something to do with your eldest brother?" ”

Fang Jing hesitated slightly, and then nodded: "The eldest brother came yesterday, originally said that he would leave tomorrow, and he came to the house this morning and said something to me, and he was originally going to buy me a house, but I persuaded him." Later, I was in a hurry to go out to the small academy, and asked him to sit at home, and then talk when I came back from my errands, but who knew that he would leave suddenly, and later, someone sent four silk horses to the house, and said some strange things......"

Hearing Fang Jing 1510 finish telling the truth, Zhang Yue gradually had a number in his heart. Seeing Fang Jing's uneasy and guilty look, he smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous, if your eldest brother's matter is not resolved, I will not settle the marriage between you and Jing'er, how can such a cautious person as the uncle and the eldest aunt come forward to propose marriage for you?" The origin of that incident was exposed, and it was originally for people to catch, but this time I want to see who is so interested. Rest assured, this is out of the way. ”

At the beginning, Zhang Zuo promised his daughter to Fang Jing, and this joint naturally had to be explored clearly, so others didn't know, but Zhang Zuo naturally knew that this matter had been smoothed out by Zhang Yue. It's just that seeing Fang Jing's relieved and thankful look, he couldn't help but be angry and funny.

That dead-eyed boy! He just said so much, Fang Jing was still worried and suspicious, but now Zhang Yue only said this, he completely believed it, he, as an elder, was so unreliable?

Zhang Zhuo, who had already become a grandfather, but now thought about being a father-in-law, coughed heavily, then stood up and looked at Zhang Yue and said: "Since it has been banned at night, Xiao Fang should not go back, let people go outside to clean up a guest room for you to live in, and go to the small academy early tomorrow morning." Yue'er, you should pay more attention to those things, deal with them all at once, and don't leave anything to chance. ”
