154 Marriage
It's better to be an official, as long as you move your mouth and run down your legs.

With Zhang Zongxian giving the school, the major industries have planned the future development direction.

Everyone was too busy, even his two wives were too busy to take care of him.And Zhang Zongxian leisurely checked their reports every day, urged them to speed up their progress, and pointed out their mistakes.

The rest of the time is devoted to educating disciples, and Guyuan has already arranged for people built by the Wang family to build a new Governor's Mansion.

Until the new Governor's Mansion is built, Zhang Zongxian will continue to stay on the side of the Jiazhou Government.

The prefect of Yan'an, who was in collusion with the governor of Yansui, after learning that Zhang Zongxian became the governor of the three sides, thought that he once wanted to help the governor seize Zhang Zongxian's property. Now the governor committed suicide in fear of crime. humiliated.

But unable to resist the temptation of power, after struggling for a long time, he took the railway stocks he had asked for and went to Jiazhou to see the governor, wanting to make amends to the governor and keep his official position.

Zhang Zongxian did not care about what the magistrate had done in the past. After recovering the railway stock, he also gave the prefect of Yan'an a share of a wool workshop according to the rules he set.

Zhang Zongxian has always been confused about how to subdue these bureaucrats for his use. After all, it will take many years for his disciples to grow up. Before that, he can only rely on these old bureaucrats to do things.

This made many things tied up, and it was completely impossible to carry out according to his wishes.For example, Zhang Zongxian wanted to carry out the matter of changing the title deed throughout Shaanxi.

He wanted to lighten the burden on the people of Shaanxi, but although he was the governor of the three sides, he was still in charge of military affairs, and if the local government cooperated with the implementation, it would definitely be violated.

Even if there is interest in kidnapping, those bureaucrats will not give up such a large income so easily.

Originally Zhang Zongxian wanted to use parties to achieve constitutionalism, but the parties in the Ming Dynasty were all linked by human feelings and for the purpose of selfishness.To kill opponents at every turn is contrary to the rule of law in Zhang Zongxian's vision.

Therefore, he gave up on reforming Daming with the existing party factions in Daming as the core, re-established a school by himself, and cultivated the spirit of the rule of law among his disciples.

But it takes time to train disciples and wait for them to grow up. Now that Zhang Zongxian is the governor of the three sides, the next step is to join the cabinet, and he needs trustworthy subordinates to help him work.

At present, the old bureaucrats that Zhang Zongxian can trust are only the history of Qingjian County and Qian Tongzhi, but it is a pity that they were born as officials and cannot occupy high positions
Now that the magistrate has come to his door, Zhang Zongxian intends to take him for his own use. Since Daming likes to punish the Nine Clans, he will marry these bureaucrats. After becoming a family, he will definitely work hard.

Then let the investigation department bring the information of the prefect of Yan'an to see who is in his family?

It just so happens that the magistrate has a daughter, so it depends on whether the magistrate can fall in love with a good minister or Boren.

Not long ago, Boren, who had been promoted to a general, returned to his hometown to avenge himself, and took the Dianshi directly to his father's grave and chopped it up.Boren, who has had his revenge, should also start a family.

Liangchen is not young anymore, now that he is outside the border wall all year round, he can't take care of his mother at all.

Zhang Zongxian had an idea, so he asked Zhao's staff to go to the prefect to talk to see what the prefect thought.
As the staff of the trilateral governors, the current Zhao staff no longer need to humbly bow down as before.

Instead, he directly recruited the prefect and informed the prefect of the governor's intentions.At this time, the magistrate has completely disregarded it. Originally, a general was not worthy of the magistrate's daughter, but this general is the disciple of the emperor's favorite minister, and he is the governor of the three sides.

Now the position of Governor of Yanshou is still vacant, if the governor's disciple becomes his son-in-law, the job of Governor of Yanshou must be sure.

Moreover, Zhang Zongxian's subordinates didn't have anything on the table. If he took refuge in Zhang Zongxian, he would definitely become his right-hand man. Even if Zhang Zongxian was younger than him, he would admit it in order to get promoted.

Immediately agreed, and made an appointment with Zhao's staff, and let his daughter meet Zhang Zongxian's two major disciples. In his heart, the magistrate naturally hoped that the eldest disciple would be a good minister as his son-in-law, but the governor said, let them choose by themselves.

In the end, he followed the magistrate's wish. Because his parents were gone, Boren naturally didn't like this kind of marriage arranged by the elders, so he came back and ran away after a quick meeting.

Zhang Zongxian didn't want to embarrass him, but Liangchen understood the master's painstaking efforts and felt that he was away all year round and needed to marry a daughter-in-law to take care of his old mother.

The two sides quickly settled on a marriage, and Liangchen's mother naturally wanted her son to marry a girl from a scholarly family.

On the day of the wedding, Zhang Zongxian personally presented a big gift to his disciples, including 5 mu of land outside the side wall, a new-style house, and [-] taels of money order from Taiping.

The bureaucratic generals from all over Shaanxi also took advantage of the grand wedding of the governor's disciples and sent gifts. They all knew that Zhang Zongxian was the God of Wealth and had no shortage of money.

It happened to take advantage of the wedding of the governor's eldest disciple, so hurry up and show your face.

Especially the generals in Bianzhen, Ningxia, Gansu, all knew that they wanted to reform Nine Frontiers, but after taking office, the governor did nothing?Let these generals feel very uneasy.

Zhang Zongxian also wanted to take this opportunity to have a chat with the prefect of Yan'an, he could be regarded as half of his in-laws, and he should let the prefect know about some things.

The day after the wedding, Zhang Zongxian arranged for the prefect of Yan'an to visit the college.After his visit, Zhang Zongxian talked to him again.

Sun Zhifu strolled in the Legislative School, looking at the slogan on the wall from time to time

"Knowledge alters your fate."

"Practice is the only test of truth."

"Let everyone in the Ming Dynasty have food to eat, everyone to wear clothes, and everyone to have books to read."

The content expressed in these slogans made Sun Zhifu even more curious about Zhang Zongxian. The reason why Sun Zhifu helped the governor to swallow up Zhang Zongxian’s property at the beginning was not only that the governor helped him become the magistrate, but also that Zhang Zongxian did raise many privates. soldier.

Moreover, he was still attacking the city outside the side wall, which made Sun Zhifu think that the Ming court must not tolerate this person. He never thought that Zhang Zongxian would be trusted by Emperor Tianqi so much that he became the governor of the three sides.

This is equivalent to the official position of the Jiedushi in the Tang Dynasty!Sun Zhifu was puzzled.I thought Zhang Zongxian was Tianqi's half brother!

Recalling that I became a Jinshi at the age of 23, and I didn't become a magistrate until I was over half a hundred years old. Zhang Zongxian, a supervisor, even became a second-rank official in less than three years.

During the visit, Sun Zhifu also listened to a class about world geography, which opened Sun Zhifu's eyes and lamented the vastness of the world. land.

Sun Zhifu frowned. He also heard that this college does not teach the Four Books and Five Classics, but instead teaches a lot of miscellaneous studies. He also heard that Zhang Zongxian claimed to be the head teacher of the Legislative School. He thought Zhang Zongxian was the heir of the Legalist School.
After visiting the academy now, I have more questions.
