Please, let me be a fool

Chapter 28 The Great Wei Version Zhangmen Lixue

As the chief assistant of the cabinet, Zhang Zhengming has power in the government and the opposition.

But he has no heirs, no relatives, and no huge family.

In the capital, there is no such huge mansion as Li Fang.

Except for some guards at home.

The total number of people serving did not exceed five.

Even his only nephew often travels abroad, rarely seeing him once a year or two.

At this time, it was already dark.

The north wind is blowing, and the snow outside is getting heavier.

In the inner hall of Zhang's house, Zhang Zhengming leaned in front of the stove.

He was wearing an old fur coat that had been mended dozens of times.

On the wall in front of him, there is a huge map of the territory, and the mountains, rivers and rivers are also clearly visible.

Looking at the outline, one can tell that it is the Great Wei Dynasty that occupied the entire Central Plains.

And his gaze has been staying at the northern border of the dynasty.

To be precise, it is the land of Yan in the north.

Because it was circled by red pen and ink as an obvious mark.

It has become a fact that King Yan became a vassal.

In any case, it cannot be changed.

Zhang Zhengming has also given up, begging His Majesty to call King Yan back to Beijing.The reason for staring at this territory map is to think about how to curb the opponent's rebellion, but even if he is as good at planning as he is, it is difficult to find a good way in a short time, so he has to continue thinking.

"Master." At this time, a servant girl walked into the inner hall and replied, "There is a man outside who calls himself Song Gongwen asking to see him."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhengming frowned slightly, but he didn't turn his head back: "Let him go back, just say I've rested."

Song Gongwen came to visit suddenly, and he didn't know why.

But don't care either.

"Yes."

The little maid nodded and tiptoed out of the inner hall.

At this time, Song Gongwen was standing in the heavy snow, shivering, waiting for his servants to report.

"It's very unfortunate that this master came. My master has already rested. If you want to visit, you should come tomorrow." The little maid opened the door, glanced at him, and said apologetically.

"What? So early?"

Song Gongwen lowered his head and did not speak.

How could it be possible to rest before Xu time?
But he knew that the Tai Tuo had been working hard every day.

Impossible to stop so early.

So simple.

It's because the other party doesn't want to see me.

But he is a smart person, of course it is impossible to speak out, so he said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll just wait here, and wait for Master Taifu to rest well."

After speaking, Song Gongwen pulled the thin clothes on his body, found a shelter from the wind, and stood upright.

He knew that persuading the Grand Tutor would be the most important person to gain a foothold in the cabinet and realize his ambitions in the future.

So you can't give up, at least let the other party see yourself once.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to come back in the future.

Although Song Gongwen did not have confidence in whether he could persuade the Grand Tutor, he decided to give it a try no matter what.

The little maid looked at the heavy snow outside the door and opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything and left behind closed doors.

"What?" In the inner hall, Zhang Zhengming turned his head and said, "He said he wants to wait for me to rest?"

"Yes." The little servant girl said, "Master, is it very windy and snowy outside?"

She has seen too many literati and distinguished guests who came to visit Zhang Zhengming.

But standing in the middle of the snow.

Still the first one.

"If he wants to wait, just wait, don't pay attention to him."

Zhang Zhengming shook his head, then turned his head and continued to look at the territory map of the Great Wei Dynasty.

He had heard before that Song Gongwen was a man of power, so he naturally thought that the other party did this on purpose, just waiting for his heart to soften and curry favor with him.

Dealing with such a person is to make him retreat, so he doesn't care at all.

"Yes." The little maid wanted to say that the man was only wearing two single clothes.

But looking at the appearance of the master, he dared not speak.

Soon, half an hour passed.

Zhang Zhengming did not continue to look at the territory map, walked to the table, and began to review the documents submitted by various places, writing and drawing from time to time.

It took an entire hour to write this, and the wind and snow outside became bigger and bigger.

He raised his head and glanced, and the servant girl asked, "How is it, is he gone?"

"I heard from the elder brother of the nursing home that he didn't leave, but was still waiting outside."

Haven't left yet?
It's been an hour and a half.

Zhang Zhengming's eyes changed a little. He never thought that a person who is in a position to follow his power would be so patient, and he said, "Then let him wait."

He wanted to see how far Song Gongwen could do it.

Immediately, he took out another thick book and started flipping through it.

The little maid pouted.

Thinking about whether to tell the master that the man wears very little?
But after a fierce ideological struggle, he still decided to give up. The master didn't want to see him, so there is naturally a reason for the master.

In this way, nearly an hour passed.

The candles on the table have bottomed out.

Zhang Zhengming also felt a little sleepy and wanted to rest, but when he thought that there was another person outside the door, he called the servant girl and asked, "Has that person left yet?"

The little maid hurriedly nodded, she sneaked a look at the front door before.

Good guy, he's almost becoming a snowman.

This Song Gongwen has such patience and perseverance, why is he not on the right path?

Zhang Zhengming sighed, and then said: "Oh, find a carriage and take him back."

He still thought that this person wanted to cling to him, so he didn't want to see him, but soon, he suddenly remembered what Wei Yunyi said this morning.

Maybe Aiqing, if you have more contact with him, you will be able to discover the unknown strengths of Song Gongwen?
At this point in his thoughts, Zhang Zhengming hesitated and said, "Forget it, let him come in."

The little maid stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

My master has always been a man of one and only, why has he changed today?

Of course, she didn't dare to ask more questions, and then hurried out of the inner hall.

Song Gongwen, who had been waiting for more than two hours, really became a snowman, shivering in the cold wind, thinking that he would have known it earlier, so he came wearing two more clothes.

But soon, when he heard that Zhang Zhengming wanted to see him, he felt a heat in his heart, and felt that all the chills had dissipated.

He didn't even have time to pat the snow on his body, so he followed the little maid and walked in.

Zhang Zhengming has also seen the world.

But when he saw Song Gongwen covered in snow, he couldn't help being shocked, especially when he saw that the other party only had two single clothes, his eyes changed completely.Wearing two single clothes, standing in the wind and snow for more than two hours
To be honest, Zhang Zhengming asked himself, if he could do it himself.

After that, he ordered people to send more charcoal and clothes.

Zhang Zhengming looked at Song Gongwen and said, "I really admire your perseverance. Tell me, why do you want me?"

At this moment, he could already guess that the other party must be seeking him for something.

I thought that if it was just an ordinary thing, I could still listen to it.

However, Song Gongwen did not speak.

Immediately, he took out a book from his bosom and said: "I have just finished writing a clumsy work, and I would like to ask Mr. Tai Tuo to give me some pointers."

In fact, he really wanted to call himself a student.

Because in the year when he took the Jinshi examination, the other party was his own examiner.

But Song Gongwen knew that although Zhang Zhengming had taught many people in his life, including many senior officials in the court, there were very few students who could be recognized by the other party.

Even in his heart, he really wanted to be recognized by this great Confucian, and be regarded as a student by the other party.

But Song Gongwen still didn't dare, feeling that he was a bit unworthy now.
