Chapter 355: Let Him Be Promoted!
"Chen Jiazi, Chen Jiazi, it's amazing!"
Zhang Mansion in the capital, Zhang Ying looked at a letter in his hand, shook his head and sighed, then put the letter down, and his eyes fell on his confidant Wang Bu. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wang Bu stood with his head bowed and said, "Bu is not doing well, please punish the benefactor." Then he fell silent.
The room was suddenly quiet, filled with a heavy atmosphere that made people palpitate.
Gradually, cold sweat flowed from Wang Bu's forehead.
"Okay, what's the use of punishing you?" Finally, Zhang Ying waved his hand and asked Wang Bu to raise his head, "I have sent out the people who gave gifts to the Chen family, and you know, Chen Lao'er has been connecting up and down in the court in the past few days, taking advance as retreat, but he has sat firmly in the position of the servant, Ma Zheng will not be able to get it back for a while, but I will not give up because of this, so I have to paralyze them first, as for the Chen family......"
He looked up at Wang Bu and said, "You have fought with him a few times, in your opinion, how to deal with it?" β
Wang Bu pondered for a moment, and then said: "Chen Zhi this person, unfathomable, cautious, is difficult to have a handle to others, and good at forbearance, obviously has a lot of talents, but he will not bear it, and will not reveal one or two until the last moment, which is also similar to this person's career, he was disguised as a gentleman, and he emerged due to an accident, and then he was out of control, it is difficult for others to predict, what else is he hiding." β
Zhang Ying showed surprise, narrowed his eyes and said, "Oh? Your evaluation of this clichΓ© is quite high! "This subordinate of his is not easy to praise people.
"It's been a few times, and he has spent it with incredible energy, and he has sighed in his heart." When Wang Bu spoke, there was still a feeling of palpitation in his heart, but he didn't show it.
"In this way, this person can no longer be listed as an opponent," Zhang Ying also pondered for a moment and made a decision, "It's better not to go to this Chen Zhi's trouble, anyway, with his age and qualifications, even if his talent and means are high, he can't reach the sky in one step, so without detrimental to the overall situation, the key is Chen Yong, since Chen Zhi can't be used as a gap, he has to look for other opportunities, after all, judging from many rumors, in the past two years, when there is a big event, don't be distracted." β
Wang Bu shook his head and said, "Because of this, we can't let Chen Zhi stay with such variables, so as not to cause extraneous branches." β
Zhang Ying frowned, and then said, "Then you should tell me, what is the method?" According to what you said, Chen Zhi is cautious, unfathomable, and forbearant, the emperor still values him a lot, plus his talent, he can't mobilize my Zhang family's forces at such a time, and go all out to encircle and suppress a family official, not to mention whether it is shameful or not, it is not worth it at all, and it may not be possible, after all, there is Chen Yong's old man in the way, and the Zhao family and the Zhuge family are also inclined to this person, and it is difficult to frame from the political level, so this person is simply unable to start. β
Wang Bu smiled, as if he had already made up his mind, and said: "It's not good to press him, it's better to let him be promoted!" β
"Huh?" Zhang Ying's expression changed, and he understood a little, "What do you mean?" β
Wang Bu said with a smile: "I look at Chen Zhi's trip, everything is not lightly moved, there must be a cause for moving, the cause is fruitful, nothing is missing, he is now arranged, and finally he will be able to make political achievements, plus the Huns to envoy, and it is related to that Liu Yuan, at most half a year, this person should be promoted with great merit, and the benefactor may wish to push the boat." β
"You mean, let this Chen Zhi leave Luoyang and be released as an official?" Zhang Ying's brows did not stretch, "But according to you, Chen Zhi has great talents, let him leave the capital and go out for politics, although he is not treated like the children of the minister, but he should not return to the mountain, in case he becomes big outside, wouldn't it be self-defeating?" Besides, if he spoiled my business this time, it would be okay if he didn't pursue it, and he would help him get promoted, there was no reason for that. β
At this time, the children of the family, but all those who are from the top grades, few go to local politics, and most of them live in the center of Luoyang, so that they can be promoted as soon as possible.
"This is a killing!" Wang Bu explained, "If Chen Zhi is allowed to continue to stay in Luoyang, with this talent, high-quality local products, maybe he will be another Yu Liang!" On the contrary, if he is released as an official, he can be promoted, but he may not be able to increase his power, at this time when the frontier is uncertain, where is it so easy to make a big one, it is not easy to make merit, the benefactor acts like this, it can also confuse Chen Yong and others, show the enemy weakness, make them think that the benefactor wants to reconcile, and thus misjudge the situation ......"
When Zhang Ying heard this, he nodded slowly, as if he had moved.
Wang Bu said again: "Besides, Chen Zhi is far away from the Beijing Division, and he doesn't need to be distracted by the benefactor, after a long time, the emperor forgets it, and he will have less to rely on, and the Chen servant has reduced his help, the promotion outside Luoyang, unless the feudal officials, how can other people be so easy, with Chen Zhi's qualifications, where can he do the feudal territory?" If he is assigned to that chaotic place, then there will be more means to deal with him, and then there will be no need for the benefactor to bother, and he will be able to deal with one or two people. β
At this point, Wang Bu saw Zhang Ying's contemplative expression, so he resolutely stopped talking.
After a while, Zhang Ying waved his hand.
"Although this matter is small, it can always be too cheap to stop, and look at the follow-up, you step back first, I have my own thoughts."
Wang Bu nodded and retreated, there were other reasons for his proposal this time, which is a later story, so I won't show it for the time being.
Let's say that the person left, Zhang Ying pondered for a moment, returned to the table, picked up the previous letter, looked at it for a while, frowned more and more, and finally put it down, walked to the window, and looked out of the window.
It's getting dark.
At this time, Chen Yong's mansion suddenly came again.
This person is dressed in Confucian clothes, his expression is calm, although his face is only the posture of a middle-aged person, but he gives people a sense of elegance when walking.
"Yang Jun, go this way."
The one who showed him the way was the chief steward of the Chen Mansion.
This chief steward is Chen Yong's confidant, he has been following Chen Yong for some years, the two are called master servants, they really have friendship, and some juniors of the Chen family should also show respect for him, but in front of this Confucian man, the chief steward showed a cautious and humble side.
The Confucian man walked and watched, nodded from time to time and said: "I have long heard of the name of Mrs. Chen, looking at the furnishings of this mansion, it is easy to count, and it is indeed worthy of its name." β
"Mr. Yang has good eyesight, my lord has entertained a lot of guests in the past, and there are not many people who can see the layout of this courtyard at a glance."
He politely complimented the man, and the chief steward changed his words and said, "All the princes are in the backyard, Yang Jun, please come with me." β
The man nodded and followed, and after a few steps forward, there was a sudden sound of "Zheng Zheng" in front of him, followed by the sound of a piano flowing like mountains and flowing water, and the man in Confucian clothes changed his expression slightly, and stopped to listen.
Seeing this, the chief steward did not bother, and waited quietly, and after a while, he saw the man in Confucian clothes stepping again, and then led the way again.
"This is someone playing the piano, the sound of the piano is melodious, the artistic conception is ethereal, the one who plays the piano is a master, worthy of being a servant of the house, the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger." The Confucian man said as he walked, and suddenly laughed again, "This voice is coming from the road ahead, it seems that this person who plays the piano is exactly where we are going, very good, very good, and don't tell the identity of this person, wait for me to look at it." β
"Mr. Zun's words." The chief steward nodded, thinking about it in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, knowing that the selected person behind him was afraid that he was a little moved, his thoughts couldn't help but become complicated, "Could it be that in the end, this matter really has to fall on Bi Chen?" β
In the midst of the steward's thoughts, the two walked through the corridor and into the backyard.
It is said that it is a backyard, not necessarily, Chen Yong has been an official for many years, and his qualifications are quite profound, and the official residence he obtained is also quite spacious, with three entrances, spacious inside, the so-called backyard, in fact, in the center, not into the place of family members, there is also a garden layout inside, surrounded by corridors, and stone tables and chairs are placed inside.
There is a pavilion on the side of the stone, and there is a tea sea in it, but it is empty at this time.
However, inside and outside the pavilion, the Assassins had already gathered a number of young men, all of them sitting or standing, all of them looking solemn and uneasy.
When the footsteps sounded, and they saw the chief steward and the Confucian man, these people all came to their spirits, and they were even more energetic, trying to show their most brilliant side.
"This is Yang Quan, the nephew of Yang Gong, this person is called Yang Gong's nephew, in fact, Yang Gong is like a teacher, and he is Yang Gongji's disciple!"
Many of the children of the Chen family, led by Chen Hua, are eager to try, especially Chen Hua, who is even more radiant and has infinite hope in his heart! I hope that I can rely on this accident to turn the current situation around and regain my grandfather's trust and family status!
It turned out that when he was about to ridicule Chen Luo, a notice suddenly came and asked them to go to the backyard, that is, the middle courtyard.
Chen Hua and Chen Luo, who had not yet settled down, were invited over, and the two of them didn't know why, but when they arrived at the place, they saw other people with the same blank faces.
Counting Chen Hua and Chen Luo, there are a total of seventeen people, including Chen Zi and Chen Huan.
As soon as Chen Hua and Chen Luo arrived, someone came over to count the number of people, and then explained the cause and effect to them who were confused.
It turned out that the people who had been gathered together were unmarried or of the right age, and they were called for the purpose of being chosen.
"The power of the Yang family is no less than that of the Langya Wang family, this time the daughter to be married, Yang You, is Yang Ji's favorite granddaughter, and his father Yang is the new big Si Nong, if you get this daughter, how can Chen Zhi compare with me?"
Chen Hua thought like this, in fact, he already had a marriage contract and a concubine, but in the face of power, where could he take care of those, just thinking about what kind of soaring scenery it would be if he could be favored by the Yang family, after all, the Chen family is very obvious compared to the Yang family.
Chen Hua is not the only one with similar thoughts, but the other Chen disciples are the same, that is, Chen Luo knows that he is hopeless and quite casual, as well as Chen Zi and Chen Huan, although they also look solemn, but they are more polite, and they don't care very much, and the others are all looking at Yang Quan, who has just arrived.
Yang Quan's gaze swept over everyone, paused on Chen Hua, and then continued to move, falling on Chen Zi, his eyes lit up, but in the end, his gaze fell on the end of the east corridor.
There, there was a figure stroking the harp.
