Prime Minister

Chapter 885 Revenge
Zhang Yue soon knew that Wang Zhongzheng was slandering the emperor, and Zhang Zhi asked Shi Deyi to restrain Wang Zhongzheng.

But now Wang Zhongzheng is slandering the emperor again and again, how can this be tolerated?

Zhang Yue remembered that at the banquet a few days ago, he and Feng Jing were on the side, and the officials seemed to be joking: "Zhang Qing, how about the new house I gave you?"

Zhang Yue said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, the house is much better than the house I used to live in."

The official continued to laugh and said: "I heard that the late emperor praised your incorruptibility. Afterwards, you managed the Xihe River and handled tens of millions of money and food, but there was no mistake at all. I admire you very much."

"But I can't figure out that you are still a third-rank official, and you are still so simple. Are you suspected of trying to gain fame?"

After Zhang Yue heard what the emperor said, he felt that it meant something.Feng Jing on the side helped Zhang Yue and said: "Your Majesty, when I heard that Zhang Yue was not in time, he made an engagement with the Wu family. Knowing that Zhang Yue's family was poor, the Wu family gave him a mansion to live in. But Zhang Yue said that the food in the Huazhai To kill my spirits, I still live in the prison of the Imperial College."

The official was stunned when he heard the words, and gave himself ten bolts of satin.

At this moment, Zhang Yue wanted to come to this theory of fishing for fame, and he was sure that Wang Zhong was slandering himself in front of the officials.That's why the officials asked themselves in a joking way, which is also a first-class beating.

Thinking of Wang Zhongzheng repeatedly slandering himself, Zhang Yueqiang calmed down his anger and thought about how to deal with it.

In Zhang Yue's past, when he was a lowly official, it was inevitable that colleagues would slander you in front of others.

Zhang Yue understands that this matter is unavoidable. You are a dual-level graduate and the first in the department. Not only are you a young official but you are promoted quickly, you will inevitably be jealous.

The most indispensable thing in this world is people who can't see the good people.

Comparing his heart with his heart, Zhang Yue felt that when he saw that one day his official position was inferior to yours, but now he is on your head, he would not be convinced from the bottom of his heart, and even you had to bow his head to salute him, the feeling was indescribably uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue was able to adjust to Lu Huiqing's superiority later on.

Zhang Yue is also understandable to those who slander him. At this time, it is not the best way to clarify and turn his face.

Zhang Yue maintained a superficially harmonious relationship with them, but from now on, you will never hear a single useful word from me.This is the same on the surface, but respectful in the bottom of my heart.

But in the final analysis, everyone has no conflict of interest, so gossip can be said as much as possible, and try not to make faces.When the mountains and rivers meet in the future, maybe they will just laugh it off.

In fact, Zhang Yue's official promotion has been rapid all the way. Those people who immediately had suspicions now smile when they see him, because they are afraid that they will remember the bad things that the other party said behind their backs back then, and worry that they will retaliate against them.

For example, yesterday, when Deng Wan heard the news that she had been admitted to the Academy, she even came to the door to give herself a gift, apologizing for what happened back then.

But Wang Zhongzheng was different...

A few days later, the imperial court made some personnel arrangements, and Zeng Bu was dismissed from the position of the third envoy. Yuan Jiang succeeded him, and Zhang Dun and Deng Wan went straight to the academy.

Afterwards came the Grand Ceremony of the Southern Suburbs. Han Jiang was the envoy of ceremonies in the southern suburbs, Zhang Yue was the envoy of ceremonies, Yuan Jiang was the envoy of Lubo, Deng Wan was the envoy of honor guards, and Sun Yong, Quan Zhi Kaifeng Mansion, was the envoy of bridges and roads.

King Qi is the sub-offer, and King Jia is the final offer.

Han Jiang's role as the envoy of the southern suburbs is just a name, and the specific matters are arranged by Zhang Yue.

When Zhang Yue was in the Taichang Liyuan, he participated in the grand ceremony in the southern suburbs, and now he has become the person in charge of the ceremony. He asked Sun Gu, Han Zhen, and Yang Hui, who were acquainted with the Taichang Liyuan, to organize the etiquette with him.

From time to time, the government sent people to check. Now everyone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs knows that it is Zhang Maoze, but Zhang Maoze is too old to do it himself.

Therefore, the matter of etiquette in the southern suburbs was left to the deputy, Wang Zhongzheng, the deputy governor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, came to inspect.

Wang Zhongzheng is now under one man and above ten thousand in the inner court, and his arrogance is very arrogant.

One day Wang Zhongzheng came to inspect the arrangement of the ceremony while Zhang Yue was away, pointing fingers at a lot of things, most people dared not speak out, only Han Zhen argued with him.

When Zhang Yue arrived at the scene afterwards, Han Zhen told him that Wang Zhongzheng was looking for trouble, and he wanted to see Zhang Yue's reaction from the bottom of his heart.Zhang Yue just said I got it lightly, without any anger on his face.

After Zhang Yue left, Han Zhen said to Sun Gu who was beside him: "It seems that the bolder the official, the less courageous he is. In the past, when the official was inferior, he dared to beat Han Zhi, but now..."

Sun Gu said: "When you are young, you will inevitably be angry, but now you are trusted by the officials, it is not as good as it was back then. Otherwise, you and I were above him in the past, but now you have to listen to his arrangements. In other words, if you hadn't Hammer killed a commander, I am afraid that today he will be a gentleman."

Han Zhen said: "If a person is not a man of temperament, even if he is a husband, he will not be happy."

Sun Gu smiled without saying a word.

The day before arriving in the southern suburbs, the emperor took a royal chariot to the place where the grand ceremony was held, and the prime minister led all the officials in uniform to stand outside the imperial gate and wait.

The imperial driver stopped when he was leaving the palace gate. The emperor, King Qi, and King Jia got off the imperial chariot, and the official said a few words to Han Jiang.

The ceremony in the southern suburbs was extraordinarily grand. In addition to the prime minister and hundreds of officials, there were tens of thousands of imperial guards guarding the road, and iron cavalry opened the way.Although it is not the time to officially hold the ceremony, everyone is waiting for it.

The officials said a few words with Han Zhen and the prime ministers, and then boarded the chariot with King Qi and King Jia. As for Wang Zhongzheng, he also boarded the chariot holding the magic weapon, and served the emperor personally.

At this moment, the etiquette officer Zhang Yue who was standing beside Han Jiang suddenly stepped out and shouted angrily at Wang Zhongzheng who was boarding the car with his back on his back: "Bold Wang Zhongzheng, what is your identity, dare to ride with the emperor?"

Now in the eyes of all the officials, there are guards on the left and right, and there are countless Kaifeng people watching the excitement in the distance.

Wang Zhongzheng was reprimanded by Zhang Yue under the eyes of everyone, his body was hanging beside the car and he couldn't move forward or retreat at the moment.

Wang Zhongzheng knew that Zhang Yue's revenge was coming, but he didn't expect it to be so violent. This was deliberately humiliating him in front of everyone, even the emperor!

Wang Zhongzheng argued: "Zhang Duanming, our family serves His Majesty, why not board the car? Please Your Majesty make the decision for me!"

Suddenly witnessing all this, the officials were also a little overwhelmed, but Zhang Yue said: "Your Majesty, when Zhao Tan rode with Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Ang reprimanded him. Although there are few people in the Han Dynasty, how can Your Majesty fight with the sword alone?" It is recorded in Yu Gong. This matter is recorded in Sima Qian's "Bao Ren An Shu", and Yuan Si changed color when his son participated in the ride."

"Now what is the identity of Wang Zhongzheng, who dares to ride with His Majesty, King Qi, and King Jia? I ordered Wang Zhongzheng to get out of the car immediately!"

After hearing Zhang Yue quoting this allusion, the officials said to Wang Zhongzheng: "Zhang Qing is an envoy of etiquette, so you should listen to him!"

Hearing what the officials said, Wang Zhongzheng glanced at Zhang Yue with hatred.But Wang Zhongzheng begged the emperor unwillingly, he knew that he would be trampled by Zhang Yue this time, and his face was gone.

The officials thought that Wang Zhongzheng was also an important minister, and he had always been loyal to him, so it was not good for him to refute his face face to face.But who knew that Zhang Yue stepped forward and grabbed Wang Zhongzheng's sleeves with both hands, and forcibly dragged him off the imperial chariot in front of everyone.

Then Han Jiang and other officials watched the scene of "Wang Zhongzheng stretched out his hands and watched the imperial driver gallop away".
