Prime Minister

Chapter 359

After talking with Wu Chong, Zhang Yue suppressed his joy and returned to the hall to meet Shi Qi Niang.Seventeen Niang was already concerned about what her father and husband had talked about, and she was relieved when she saw that Zhang Yue was going out with a happy expression.

At present, the husband and wife talked for a while after having lunch in Wu Mansion, and they went back to Zhang's house in Wu Mansion's carriage.

After arriving at Zhang's house, the husband and wife changed their clothes. Shi Qi Niang asked Mother Chen to wait for the envoys to rest outside, and then asked, "Officer, what did Dad say to you alone?"

Zhang Yue laughed and said, "Isn't it an agreement, you are in charge of internal affairs, and I am in charge of foreign affairs."

Seventeen Niang said: "My father talks to you not about foreign matters but internal matters."

Zhang Yue said: "My lady is right. Although it is a foreign matter, it is also a family matter. My lady sit next to me, and I will talk to you slowly."

Seventeen Niang saw that Zhang Yue was like this, pinched his waist and said: "It's only daytime... I was seen by the envoy, how can I tell you..."

Zhang Yue didn't seem to hear and looked at Shi Qiniang's round and plump legs, and his heart skipped a beat when he thought of what happened last night.

Seeing Zhang Yue like this, Shi Qi Niang couldn't help but said: "You tell me the truth, don't think about other things."

Zhang Yue saw that Shi Qi Niang was about to get angry, so he immediately restrained his expression and said: "That's fine, madam, just listen to me..."

So Zhang Yue talked with Weng and his son-in-law in the study, and told Shi Qiniang truthfully.

After Zhang Yue said that he was reprimanded by Wu Chong for not being recruited by Han Qi, Shi Qi Niang couldn't help but smiled and said: "Officer, Daddy is angry with you on the surface, but he is happy in his heart."

"Why?"

Seventeen Niang said: "You come from Ougong's family. It is a matter of course for Ougong to recommend you to Hangong, and the teacher of the official, Chen Xueshi, is also from Fuxianggong's family, so Han and Fu recommended you to the department. They all intend to recruit you, if officials agree to Mr. Han, they will offend Mr. Fu, and if they accept Mr. Fu, they will offend Mr. Han. This is not appropriate."

Zhang Yue suddenly said: "So that's the case. It turns out that Lao Taishan asked Mr. Wen Xianggong to come forward for that."

Both Fu Bi and Han Qi wanted to recruit him. It would be bad if he accepted either, but it would be even worse if he accepted neither.At this time, Wu Chong invited Wen Yanbo to speak for Zhang Yue, so Fu Bi and Han Qi could understand.

Shi Qiniang said: "The two ministers of Fu and Han are at odds, and Mr. Du Wen is above the outside world. They will not offend Mr. Wen. But more importantly, compared with Mr. Fu and Han, our Wu family is of course closer to Mr. Wen. "

Zhang Yue said: "No wonder, why didn't my father-in-law tell me in advance?"

Seventeen Niang smiled and said: "I guess Dad is not sure either, Ou Gong is your bole, and Xueshi Chen is your mentor, even though Dad is your father-in-law, he dare not go ahead of them, let alone you and I were not married at that time. "

Zhang Yue suddenly realized that if it hadn't been for Shi Qiniang's words, he really couldn't figure out what Lao Taishan was thinking.

Zhang Yue said: "Then the meaning of my father-in-law will make me follow Wen Xianggong's meaning in the future."

Seventeen Niang said: "That's not true. The so-called rare goods can live in. Officials and officials are the top of the world. It is not difficult to be an official and rank among the ministers. Why do you have to be in it so early? You may not get any benefits."

The more Zhang understood what Shi Qi Niang meant, speculation could of course make huge profits, but it would be miserable if it failed.Being the first in Jinshi and the third-ranked double chief in the department, he can completely keep himself aloof and not get involved in the political strife of the prime minister.

Sansu attached to Han Qi's sect, and was targeted by Wang Anshi. It was not a tragedy.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue felt relieved, and said happily to Shi Qi Niang: "My lady is really amazing, she can be my military advisor."

Seventeen Niang blushed and said, "Who will be your military advisor? It's just on Dad's mind. As a daughter, I always know better than you."

Zhang Yue understood that Shi Qi Niang was saving face for herself, but no matter what, he still had to thank his father-in-law deeply.The father-in-law moved out of the mountain of Wen Xianggong and restrained Han Qi.

Not only that, Zhang Yue also got the opportunity to try out the position of the library.

So it seems that I am getting closer and closer to Cai Bian.

In the future, it is estimated that the term nepotism may not be used by Cai Bian himself.

It's really sad to think about it, the majestic seven-foot man, in the end, he insisted on taking shortcuts on the road of life by relying on the superior position of the Yue family.

Zhang Yuechang sighed for a while, but for some reason, deep down in his heart, there was a first-class joy, and why?

After Zhang Yue got married, he couldn't help but thank the officials.

A few days later, Zhongshu wrote: According to the imperial edict, the department will enter the third class, and the Jinshi will be the first, except Dali's two envoys who judge affairs and sign letters;If a man with a high talent is in a different line, if he applies to someone who is in politics and has a relatively good merit, he should be promoted with a different kind of kindness.

In this chapter, Yue Jinshi is the first and the system is the third. It is really excellent, so he is exempted from the test of returning to the full term of office, and called for a test in the museum.

When Zhang Yue received the imperial edict, he was full of emotions, his father-in-law was so awesome, so he called for a test post?
The promotion route for officials in the Song Dynasty was still very complicated.

However, if an official with a Jinshi background chooses the most ideal promotion route, there is nothing better than selecting people, Beijing officials, library posts, knowing the imperial edict, four entrances, and Zaizhi.

For example, the selection of candidates is like bronze. Except for Zhang Yue, all his Jinshi were in the bronze rank in the same year.

Beijing officials are like Baiyin, such as Su Shi, Su Zhe, and Zhang Yue are all in this rank.

Libraries are gold, like Zhang Heng and Chen Xiang.

Knowing that patents are diamonds, such as Wang Anshi.

The four entry heads are masters, such as Han Jiang and Wang Gui.

As for Han Qi, Zeng Gongliang, Ouyang Xiu are in the glory of the king.

Of course, passing the bachelor's college examination does not mean that Zhang Yue will be promoted, and his official position will remain Dali Si Cheng.

Obtaining a post in the library represents a first-class status, and ranks among celebrities in terms of prestige.

It was the most honorable way for civil officials in the Song Dynasty to be recommended by Jinshi Gaodi for an examination, and then selected by the library to appoint ministers of the two systems, and then promoted by the two systems to assist ministers. .
In other words, Zaizhi is selected from the two systems, the two systems are selected from the library posts, and the library posts are selected from the Gaodi Jinshi.

Being granted a post in the library represents that Zhang Yue has obtained the qualifications to become an official of the two systems.

Of course, this is something to be said for later. Before being awarded a post in the library, one must pass the examination of the Academy of Sciences.

When the officials heard that Zhongshu had recommended Zhang Yue for a position in the museum, they were talking with Han Qi and Zeng Gongliang, two Zhongshu prime ministers, in the hall.

The official said to Han Qi: "I want to use the stories of the Tang Dynasty to select outstanding talents to be close ministers of the pavilion. Zhang Yue is the first Jinshi, and the third class in the system. Can I break the rules and enter the pavilion without examination?"

Han Qi came out of the class and said: "Zhang Yue is a great weapon, and it will be used by the world in the future. But since it is a long tool, it needs to be cultivated and used extensively, so that all the people in the world will be convinced, thinking that the imperial court employs people in the right way, and the academy will test it. It is to make people in the world agree. If Your Majesty suddenly avoids the test, the people in the world will not necessarily be convinced, but Zhang Yue will be tired by it, and it is not the way the court has honed the way of employing people."

Hearing what Han Qi said, the officials laughed and said: "The talent of saving people is obvious to all the world. It is unnecessary to call the test, but a gentleman loves others with virtue, so let him try it!"
