Prime Minister

Chapter 3
Zhao Yasi heard that Zhang Xu might go to Beijing to join Chen Xiang, and was a little hesitant. Once Zhang Xu entered Beijing, it was possible for him to be admitted to the jinshi with his talent and knowledge through Chen Xiang's recommendation.

If he offends the Zhang family badly now, he will face the revenge of an official in the future.And with what he knew about this prospective son-in-law, this person should not be teased.

Zhang Shi lowered his head and said: "Yasi, the third brother and I do not know about it, but there are many mistakes in this matter, all of which are the fault of our Zhang family. Our brothers admit their mistakes and do not ask you to be merciful, and let us go. Home, but sincerely to accompany you this is not."

After listening to Zhang Shi's words, Zhao Yasi's expression softened a little, and now he has to go down a step.

Cao Baozheng, who had been afraid to say a word, saw that Zhang Yue had turned the situation around with just one word, and he was immediately refreshed.

He didn't dare to be a peacemaker before, but now it's different. He's a master when it comes to adjusting the atmosphere.

Cao Baozheng smiled and said: "The misunderstanding has been solved, isn't it, Yassi, I think this Zhang Erlang is also indecisive, so he was confused for a while, but he will understand later."

"Zhao Yasi, you think that the marriage contract between the two families was made by the elders of the two families. There is no reason why the younger generation does not count. This marriage contract is originally the order of the parents and the matchmaker. As long as Zhang Erlang returns to his hometown in the future, the marriage contract between the two families remains the same, then Yassi will save his son-in-law from the list..."

Zhang Shi also said: "It's our fault for Yasi, and we will pay for the money." Zhang Shi has decided to resolve the feud between the two families at the cost of bankruptcy.

Zhao Yasi said: "Thank you for Bao Zheng's intention, but when Zhang Erlang returns home in the future, can someone from Zhao shyly beg him to welcome his little girl again? Today I only need the Zhang family to pay back [-] pieces of dowry money and the accounts are clear."

"Then what is the account of Yassi's burning to my shop?" Zhang Yue asked.

Hearing this, Zhao Yasi sneered: "What if you burn it? Thinking of my friendship with your late father, I will give you a chance to speak. Do you think I, someone Zhao, are good at talking?"

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting worse, Cao Baozheng immediately came forward and said: "Please also please Zhao Yasi to calm down. The marriage contract between the Zhang and Zhao families has not been dissolved. If the marriage contract is not broken, the two families are one family. Is this the truth? Is there anything the family can't sit down and talk about?"

Zhao Yasi said: "Zhang Erlang is unrighteous first, who is still a family with him?"

Cao Baozheng said with an apologetic smile: "Since Yasi said that he is not a family, it means that Zhang's family has no chance to climb high. It is normal for this woman to remarry, and Yasi will definitely get a good son-in-law. This empress dowager of this dynasty also remarried, not only to Emperor Zhenzong. , it is also called the system of approaching the dynasty."

What Baozheng said was Empress Liu E, Empress Dowager Liu, and later generations often referred to her as Empress Lu and Empress Wu.Liu E was born in the folk, and she was a married woman before she fell in love with Song Zhenzong. However, she became the empress dowager and dominated the world. After some ministers had persuaded her to follow the martial arts, she replaced the young Song Renzong as emperor, and Liu E threw a book on the ground. Saying 'never do this to disappoint the ancestors'.

In today's terms, her life can be described as extremely inspirational, and women's novels dare not write like this.

Cao Baozheng cited the example of Empress Dowager Liu E, and said: "Now that the two families continue to quarrel, it will not help the matter, but it will harm the reputation of the two families. It would also be beneficial for Yu Ling's daughter to remarry."

Zhang Yueshen nodded in agreement.

Translate Cao Baozheng's words, that is, if he has not been divorced and remarried once or twice this year, how can he be the protagonist?The relationship in question now is not about breaking off the marriage, but about 'Don't bully the poor'!At that time, your daughter will marry a better one, and then come to the door to slap her face or thank us for the grace of not marrying that year.

Neighbors watching the play outside thought, "That's right, you, Zhao Yasi, did the same to your predecessor's in-laws. Even though it was the other party's fault, your successor's in-laws would murmur in their hearts to some extent.

But seeing Zhao Yasi sneered: "Good Cao Baozheng, according to what you said, the Zhang family's divorce can be said to be a happy event for our family?"

"Yasi, you must never dare!" Cao Baozheng immediately exclaimed.

Zhang Shi said: "As for our Zhang family's mistakes, we should admit that we should be beaten and punished, and it will never make the judge unable to explain to others."

Zhao Yasi sneered and said, "With Cao Baozheng's words, that's all it takes to break off the marriage? Why should you pay for your life if you kill someone, if you don't, just pay some more money?"

Stiff at the moment.

Zhang Yue deliberately said to Cao Baozheng, "Baozheng! I don't understand something, and I want to ask you for advice."

Cao Baozheng nodded and said, "Sanlang please speak."

Zhang Yue said, "My second sister-in-law is still our Zhang family's daughter-in-law. Now that my second brother is not in Pucheng, how can I remarry?"

Cao Baozheng said: "You can ask your lord to issue a verdict. The two families are absolutely righteous. It was unrighteous to abandon the wife first, and the relationship between husband and wife has now ended."

Zhang Yue said: "However, there are seven sins in the righteousness of the law. Which one is the sin of abandoning a wife? There has never been a saying that a husband should not abandon his wife, but there is a saying that a wife should not abandon her husband. To make a statement to Lingjun, and to break up with the separation, even if you can't make up for the regret, it will be better for the reputation of the two families."

"Yes." Cao Baozheng's eyes lit up.

In ancient times, the dissolution of marriage was generally proposed by the husband, which was called divorce.Righteousness is the fault of the husband's family. The wife cannot divorce her husband, but can only be cut off by the government. It is called righteousness.

The law still embodies the superiority of men and women, and it is not possible to leave a wife to the yamen, but it is possible to divorce your wife if you abandon your husband.If the Zhang family wants to bite the bullet and drag the lawsuit, you can't do anything about it, but Heli is different.

The two parties sat down, based on friendly negotiation, and dissolved the marriage with peace as the most precious.For example, although the husband's family is at fault for his wife, but he fails to achieve one of the seven sins of righteousness, it is not the wife's fault at the same time.

Baozheng said knowingly: "Yes, Zhang Erlang's escape from marriage has caused great humiliation to the two families. Even if you spend a lot of money, it will be difficult to recover. The matter has come to this point, and I also ask the chief officer to think about it again and again for Ling Ai in the future. It's good to hear from the rumors, and it will also be good for your concubine's remarriage in the future."

Zhao Yasi looked at Zhang Yue and sneered: "What a sly boy, can you bargain with Ben Yasi through Cao Baozheng's mouth?"

Zhang Yue said: "My brother and I have nowhere to stay, Yasi might as well let us live here, with a tile to live in, or as much as possible, let our brothers sell this house on their own, as for those who owe Yasi Not a penny of money."

Zhao Yasi thought about it and said: "You first write the letter of letting go of your wife on behalf of your family's Erlang, and as for the fixed post, you will also retire."

"Okay." Cao Baozheng looked happy, and the next generation Zhang family brothers agreed.

The release of the wife was drafted by Baozheng.

But Jian Baozheng wrote: Gai said that the relationship between husband and wife, the husband and wife are deeply in love, and the kindness is deep and righteous.Talking about the cause of the common quilt, the joy of coexistence.

All the reasons for the husband and wife, the past life three lives, the only way to become a husband and wife in this life.

……

I hope that after the separation of the wife and the wife, they will comb the temples again, sweep the crescent eyebrows beautifully, choose the master of high officials, and play in front of the shadow court.

Resolve grievances and release knots, let alone hate each other;

Long live the Fu wishing lady.

Zhang Shi replaces Zhang Xu

This book is written on May [-]th of the third year of Zhihe

……

Zhang Yue couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw 'One is different and two are wide', Zhang Yue couldn't help but be relieved. It turned out that the source of this sentence was here. The ancients divorced so far away. He also wished his ex-wife to find a happy home again.

However, 'talking about the cause of the common quilt, and the joy of serenity' is a bit of a formula. My second brother and others haven't done anything.

The eldest brother is like a father, and now Zhang Shi is in charge of the whole family.

So he signed for Zhang Xu.Zhao Yasi took the release of his wife's book in his hand and sighed: "My hard-working daughter, how is it different from this Wangmen now?"

"Yasi! There are many young talents in this county." Cao Bao said rightly.

All the neighbors said: "Yasi raises your hand, let the two resolve this grievance!"

"This matter has been revealed, it's good to get together and leave!"

Zhao Yasi turned around and wiped his tears with his sleeve, then said, "It's so easy to expose it."

"It's not your Kunzhong's fault, but Zhang Erlang's. This account book will be settled with him. This house can be left for you to settle down temporarily, and the rest of the owed money will be paid off within one month. 30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, your Zhang Don't think that being a scholar is deceiving too much!"

The left and right minions were holding torches, which made Zhao Yasi's face uncertain: "Move!"

Everyone started to move anything that looked valuable in Zhang's house. There were two people who looked like accountants and said, "One broken bed."

"A broken spring stool."

"A broken curtain."

Zhang Yue thought about it, turned around and ran upstairs, took a book from his brother's bookshelf and put it on his body.

He remembered a saying in the past that a family can disperse a thousand dollars, but there is still hope for the children and grandchildren who are still studying.This sentence means that books are the most expensive this year, and must not be sold.

Zhang Yue stuffed the book and took out a mosquito net.Zhao Yasi glanced at it, but didn't say anything. This made Zhang Yue feel regretful, and he would have taken a few more books if he knew this.

Then Zhang Yue watched the other party remove the books from a bookcase, and couldn't help but feel distressed.These people moved until midnight, and even the beds, chairs and stools were emptied.

As for those who could not be moved, they were not smashed.

"Absi walk slowly! Quickly put a lamp in his hand to illuminate the front!"

Cao Baozheng sent Zhao Yasi out of the house with all his neighbors and his neighbors.

When Cao Baozheng returned to the house and saw the Zhang brothers, he scolded again: "Those bastards don't even leave us with Zhang Tuzi!"

The other party left, Cao Baozheng spat such a sentence, really very courageous.

Baozheng said to Zhang Shi: "Forget it, Dalang, we don't have the same knowledge as them. In a few days, we will set up a few tables and head wine, invite Zhao Yasi, and the matter will be over."

Zhang Shi gratefully cupped his hands and said, "Zhang Mou hereby thanked you for being righteous, all the neighbors are righteous!"

All the neighbors said: "Zhang Dalang is a good man and has good news. We have been neighbors in the neighborhood for so many years. If you say that, you will be seen."

"Yeah! Who hasn't gone back and forth."

Baozheng said to everyone: "Neighbors, the Zhang family is empty right now, let's help first, how about we get together and let their brothers have a place to live?"

"I want it, I want it." The neighbors on the left and right said together.

Baozheng confronted Zhang Shi, and Zhang Yue said, "You two will come to my house tonight to have a rest. Let's talk about the rest tomorrow."

Zhang Shi sighed: "Everything is done with labor insurance.

At the moment, Baozheng brought Zhang Shi and Zhang Yue to his home.When going out, Zhang Shi subconsciously wanted to lock it, but he couldn't help but stunned for a while when he saw the broken door and the empty room.

"It doesn't matter if you don't lock it."

Bao Zheng immediately took his two brothers to stay at his house, and Bao Zheng's family also burned hot soup for Zhang Yue to wash up.

The two brothers fell asleep.

Zhang Yue took out the book from his arms and read two articles by King Hui of Liang and Gongsun Chou by the lamp.

Zhang Shi was secretly relieved to see this. In the past, the third brother had fun all day long and didn't study very close to him, but this time his family has changed, and he has become a lot more sensible.It must be the protection of the parents in the spirit of the sky, and unknowingly the third brother has grown so big.

Zhang Shi felt a lot of relief at the thought of this, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

"Brother, I'll go to sleep after watching it for a while."

Suddenly I heard Zhang Shi say: "Look, I remembered what my father said back then, that although you were stubborn when you were young, you can inherit his ambition to honor Zhang's family in the future."

"Originally, I thought it was Daddy who said this casually! But today..."

"...Today, I see that you chose Mencius. There are so many books on your second brother's bookshelf, only this one was left by Dad!"

Zhang Yue didn't know what to say when he heard the words, read the book for a while and lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and fell asleep immediately.

Strange to say, as soon as Zhang Yue fell asleep, he was in the place where he saw the old man yesterday.

The night was dark all around, and only a galaxy in the middle of the sky hung upside down.

Suddenly, the feeling of first-class loneliness surged from the bottom of my heart, Zhang Yue didn't know when this time started, when it ended, where he was, and how to deal with himself.

Suddenly, the two chapters of King Liang Hui and Gongsun Chou that he read before going to bed suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Yue, like a picture scroll.

This……

The brilliance of the characters danced in the air, Zhang Yue couldn't help reaching out to touch, but it seemed as if he had touched the surface of the water, and all the characters were scattered with ripples.

Immediately, another scene appeared in front of him.

This is what happened last night.Zhao Yasi's appearance and the subtleties of his expression were not missed, and even every word he said was in his ears.

At this time, in the house, Zhao Yasi said coldly, "What if your shop burns down?"

Zhang Yue's mind repeatedly reappeared in his mind. When Zhao Yasi said this, his expression was surprised for a moment, and his anger was captured in his memory.

Zhang Yue stretched out his finger and swiped, this scene was like watching Douyin Kuaishou on a mobile phone, that scene was repeated over and over again, Zhang Yue's mind moved, and this scene was repeated several times, and the more he looked at it, the more wrong he felt.

Looking at Zhao Yasi's expression, it seems that his shop was not burned by him?

Zhang Yue stretched out his hand to take a shot, but saw the picture dissipate.At this time, Mencius' two articles, "King Hui of Liang" and "Gongsun Chou", came back to him.

It turns out that these two articles have been engraved here!
Zhang Yue was lost for a while when he saw this scene and said, this is too showy, it's simply a show of good fortune Zhong Shenxiu!

Zhang Yue suppressed his excitement, sat cross-legged on the grass, and began to memorize the book.

The long night is full of stars.

There is nothing but me here, heaven and earth are one with me.

It seemed like an hour, two hours passed, and I didn't even get tired at all.

How long has it been since you read a book seriously?
after graduation?After college?

Why do I always say 'what can I do, I'm the No.1 fisherman'?
He also made up his mind to change it and let himself study hard, but he was always fishing for three days and netting for two days.

Why do you give up on yourself and give up treatment?
If God gave him a chance to do it again... In fact, it would be quite cool to fish!At least that feeling of indulgence with a sense of guilt is something that academic bullies will never experience!

Zhang Yue had read these two articles several times, but at this moment, his mind moved, and all of a sudden everything in front of him turned into brilliance and dissipated.

It was as if he had returned to the world from mid-air and felt his body.At this moment, Zhang Yueqiang opened his eyes, and his elder brother Zhang Shi was tossing and turning, and he didn't fall asleep.

It seems that I spent the whole day reading by myself, but here it is only a moment!

Zhang Yue thought of this, but felt a wave of exhaustion welling up in his heart, the energy he had just overdrawn had to be fulfilled at this moment, suddenly his mind was heavy, and he couldn't let him fall asleep at all.

The night wind is cool, the Nanpu River is still gurgling and flowing, and the lonely mountain stands by the stream!

After getting up the next day, Zhang Yue was startled to realize that he had already memorized the two articles he had read last night, "King of Liang Hui" and "Gongsun Chou"!
And I didn't feel tired at all, I woke up refreshed today.It’s like having too much homework last night. You sleep first and then wake up, only to find that someone has written you homework.

This feeling is really... I can't describe it in words.

At this moment, Zhang Yue almost burst into tears. As a human being, he felt for the first time what is 'knowledge brings me strength, and learning makes me happy'.

Zhang Yue looked up to the sky and said to himself, "I always thought that only reading could make me sleep, but I never thought that I would also be able to read while sleeping!"

When Zhang Yue said so, it happened to Zhang Shi, who was pushed in by the door.

Zhang Shi looked at his younger brother, muttered something to the roof, and jumped up and down excitedly.

Immediately, Cao Baozheng also walked to the front of the house, and his eyes met with his brother.

"Could it be that...you got some kind of hysteria?"

"Overnight, the family was impoverished, and I could save it. It's sadness and joy!"

Zhang Shi coughed lightly and exited the room with Cao Guarantee.
