Prime Minister

Chapter 454 Ouyang Xiu Father and Son

Seeing that Ren Shouzhong had made a decision.

Fang Yan said: "Godfather, what should we do with the first step now? You told me the day before yesterday to let the Imperial City Secretary collect information on this son, and you are already doing it."

Ren Shouzhong said: "Don't say anything, keep collecting."

"Godfather, now that you're tearing your face apart, why not act first."

Ren Shouzhong said: "If you tear your face, you don't have to turn your face. If you let the handle out, you will never die."

"Godfather, what are you still worried about?"

Ren Shouzhong said: "I was thinking, but it's a pity that this son was expelled by the Zhengshi Tangtang. If it is not on the Zhengshi Tangtang book, to transfer this son's official position, he only needs to get through the joints of the trial court."

The other party said blankly: "Godfather, what is the difference between a political officer and an official from the trial court?"

Ren Shouzhong said: "The appointment of officials who are dignified in the political affairs is to be eliminated in the political affairs hall through several prime ministers of Zhongshu."

"Your godfather, I wanted to play a game of rising brightly and falling secretly, but now..."

The removal of political affairs must be discussed with the Prime Minister of Zhongshu. Han Qi even asked Zhang Yue to write the Anguo Temple Pagoda Records.

The other party also knew that Ren Shouzhong was quite scrupulous about Zhang Yue, and this up and down was a way not to tear his face.

"Godfather and Han Qi don't get along, I'm afraid it's not easy."

Ren Shouzhong sneered and said, "I'm not on good terms with Han Qi, but it's not that I have no relationship in private. Otherwise, how could I have arranged for someone to take up the post in Hebei? Don't mention it."

"What do you mean by godfather? This son is obviously not willing to accept hard and soft."

Ren Shouzhong said: "If you can't speak softly, then you have to speak hard. Now that you can't speak hard, you still have to speak softly. What we want is to hand over the prison to become the official's pocketbook, not to offend anyone."

"Godfather be careful."

"Why be cautious, we are not afraid of offending people for the sake of the government, but there is no need to go to this point, this son is already a bit of a climate, it is not worth it. You can collect more information about this son, and I will send someone to talk to this son In the final analysis, this intermediary prison is still the imperial court, not my own business, if I were him, I would not lose my bright future for this."

The other party cupped his hands and said, "Godfather, it's really a plan before you move."

Ren Shouzhong said: "It is not easy to live to this age in the palace. Remember a word, those who are good at hunting must be good at waiting."

This day Zhang Yue arrived at Ouyang Xiu's residence.

Ouyang Xiu wrote Jigulu and finally finished it.

This collection of ancient records contains more than a thousand gold inscriptions and stickers from ancient and modern times. Zhang Youzhi, Zhang Yue's teacher, contributed a lot to Ouyang Xiu while writing the book.

A collection of ancient records written by Ouyang Xiu himself is attached at the end.

Zhang Yue heard that Ouyang Xiu's book was completed, so he came to congratulate him personally.

Before seeing Ouyang Xiu, Ouyang Fa showed Zhang Yue the collection of ancient records, and said with a proud face: "I have contributed a lot to the completion of this book. Now that I have a good foundation, I will imitate a book called Ji Gulu in the future." Continuation, when the time comes, I won't invite daddy, but I will only ask you to post the tail for me, so don't refuse!"

Zhang Yue smiled. Since Anguo Temple Pagoda Records, in addition to many scholars who like literary ambitions, other scholars put this calligraphy alongside Zhong Yao's "Declaration Table" as an introductory post for learning regular script.

It is not clear where this news came from, but everyone spread it with a nose and eyes, saying that the emperor wanted to see the original post of "An Guo Temple Pagoda" and asked Han Qi to bring it into the palace.When Han Qi was about to leave, he asked the official to return it, but the official said blankly, didn't I return the original post to you?Then Han Qi returned empty-handed and suffered a great loss of being dumb.

Although it is a rumor, if the emperor wants Zhang Yue to write calligraphy, he can just ask him to write a picture, why is he so brazen.But when others asked Han Qi, Han Qi admitted that the original post was not in his hands now, but no one knew who it was in.

With the evidence of Han Qi's words, Zhang Yue's calligraphy has been passed on like this!

Since the news that Zhang Yue's calligraphy was appreciated by two successive emperors has spread like wildfire, Bianjing has experienced a wave of requests for Zhang Yue's calligraphy.

As a result, Zhang Yue is afraid to write now except for drawing notes. Sometimes when he communicates with other yamen, he writes a few words on some unimportant official documents, and then some people say that the official documents are lost, and Zhang Yue is asked to write again. share.

Zhang Yue also knows that his calligraphy has not reached the peak, but the added value brought by his reputation is too great.

Facing Ouyang Fa's repeated request, Zhang Yue couldn't help laughing and said: "I don't write for others, but since you ask, it's hard to refuse. But it's not for nothing, because you and I have known each other for many years, so it's good to carry two pots The wine comes to the door in person!"

Ouyang Fa was overjoyed and said, "Isn't it just two jugs of wine? Easy! Easy!"

Speaking of this, Ouyang Fa's expression darkened and he said: "But when you meet Daddy, don't tell me about my begging for the end."

Zhang Yue asked, "Why?"

Ouyang Fa said: "Isn't it Wang Jiefu?"

Zhang Yue said: "Isn't Wang Jiefu in Jiangning for the funeral? How can he be involved?"

Ouyang Fa said: "Father made an agreement with Wang Jiefu back then, saying that he would write a complete collection of poems for Han Tuzhi, and then he would ask Jiefu to write the postscript for the complete collection. Now that the complete collection has been completed, Wang Jiefu refuses to write it down. Daddy will write again."

Zhang Yue sighed secretly, Ouyang Xiu and Wang Anshi had gone farther and farther.

At the beginning, Ouyang Xiu sent Wang Anshi a poem, 200 poems of Hanlin Fengyue, and [-] years of official articles.When you grow old, you still have self-pity, but who will compete with you later.

This is Ouyang Xiu's appreciation to Wang Anshi.

Wang Anshi wrote back to Ouyang Xiu, saying that if he could spy on Mencius in the future, why would he dare to look at Han Gong in his life.

Wang Anshi thought that Ouyang Xiu compared his article to the Ministry of Officials (Han Yu).

After learning about it, Ouyang Xiu told Wang Anshi that Jiefu had misunderstood a certain meaning. Xie Tiao was the Minister of the Ministry of Officials back then, and Shen Yueyu wrote it. It is said that there has been no such writing in 200 years.If it is the Korean Ministry of Officials, it will be more than 200 years ago.

Wang Anshi immediately retorted: "Sun Qiao once said in Han Yu's book that there was no such article in 200 years, and at the end he added that Mr. Ouyang hasn't read too much."

After hearing Ouyang Fa's words, Zhang Yue knew that Ouyang Xiu was very uncomfortable now.

After a while, Ouyang Xiu had already stepped out, Zhang Yue couldn't help being surprised when he saw Ouyang Xiu, he had only seen Ouyang Xiu for a few months, but he was getting older and older.

But he saw Ouyang Xiu's white hair full of hairpins, and his face was very old.

Zhang Yue couldn't help but said: "Why is uncle doing this!"

Ouyang Xiu looked at Zhang Yue and said with a smile: "I'm getting old, I can't accept the old age, come and sit down!"

Then Ouyang Xiu said to Zhang Yue: "Duzhi is now a famous calligrapher, what do you think of this book at the end of a certain book?"

Zhang Yue said: "Uncle, use a sharp pen and dry ink to write square characters. It can be said that you have clear eyes and plump cheeks, and you can advance and retreat like a breeze!"

Ouyang Xiu laughed loudly when he heard the sound: "What a clear-eyed and full-faced cheek, who advances and retreats like a jerk, and can speak quickly."

Zhang Yue talked with Ouyang Xiu and his son about calligraphy for a while. After the inscription, Ouyang Xiu said to Ouyang: "I have a few words with Du Zhi!"

After hearing his father's words, although Ouyang Fa was a little unhappy, he still went as promised.

Ouyang Xiu said to Zhang Yue: "My family's Dalang and Erlang are both incompetent, but Sanlang is better. After the old man returns to seclusion, Duzhi will take care of his sons."

Zhang Yue said: "When you give birth to a child, filial piety should be the first priority. The lords are all extremely filial. Uncle, don't worry. If there is room for my nephew in the future, I will do my best."

Ouyang Xiu nodded and said: "Du Zhi, I recently heard that someone in the court wanted to harm you, did you hear that?"

Zhang Yue's heart trembled, and then he told Ouyang Xiu about Ren Shouzhong's proposal to lead the supervisor.
