In Jingzhao Chang'an Mansion, Zhang Yan still didn't know that he was about to have another romantic blessing.
Of course, he had considered Mrs. Huarui, but after thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Shengren suddenly felt that it was a bit difficult to make a move.
Because historically, before Zhao Da and Zhao Er, the monarchs of the Central Plains dynasties still wanted to show face after destroying enemy countries.
Only Zhao Dan could poison Meng Chang to death for the sake of Mrs. Huarui, who had just arrived in Tokyo for only seven days.
In order to occupy Xiao Zhouhou, Zhao Er also gave Li Yu a glass of poisonous wine.
Of course, the kings of separatist regimes in times of chaos can also do these things, but they are not the unifying masters of the world.
The current Zhang Shengren, who is highly respected by the people in the world, always regards himself as a sage and a wise master, and is indeed unable to do anything for a woman, using any means.
Perhaps, at this time, Meng Chang has not yet been corrupted. Is it possible that he would be so strong-willed that he would commit suicide and die for his country?
Zhang Hao touched his chin, hoping that Meng Chang would be wiser.
When I think of the beauty of Mrs. Fei in history, even I, Zhang Shengren, can't resist!
"Sage, Lord Hedong has arrived at Fengxiang Mansion. You said that you would send guards to the capital of Hanshan to welcome him as a sign of honor."
Just as he was feeling a little moved, Xiao Sage's clear voice came from outside the door.
Zhang Shengren suddenly felt hot in his lower abdomen, and he suddenly opened the door, hugged Xiao Sage by the waist, and carried him on his shoulders.
In the flash of lightning, out of the corner of Zhang Shengren's eye, he also saw a female official in white with her mouth open in an O-shape, a look of surprise on her face, and then she quickly turned into a low-brow look.
Soon, Xiao Sage couldn't bear it anymore, she looked at Zhang Hao with drunken eyes and said.
"Sage, Zhao Rongniang is outside. She has admired the saint for a long time, why not recruit her in today.
Nunu has been training His Majesty for a long time and knows everything, so she may not be any worse than the beauties from Shu."
Zhang Hao touched his nose and didn't say whether it was okay or not for a while, but Xiao Sage just understood.
Because she found that the emperor had a very strange sense of morality that bound him, and she didn't know where it came from. This caused the emperor to always be somewhat reserved when it came to his concubines.
Not long after, soft footsteps sounded, and Zhao Rongniang, who was still wearing a silver female official uniform, was led to Zhang Yan.
Zhao Rongniang, who is seventeen years old this year, is obviously still a young girl compared to Zhang Gao's other concubines.
Of course, green is still green, and the raw ones are still very beautiful.
After the war, her mother, Lady Han Qi, used her kindness to attract Zhang Sikong's attention. Zhang Rongniang was naturally very satisfied with Zhao Rongniang, who was even more attractive than her mother, Lady Han Qi.
But Zhang Yan still wanted to be reserved out of habit, because Zhang Yan's clear impression of Zhao Rongniang was still the frightened little face she had when he rescued her from the pile of dead people in Jingzhou.
Developing this kind of thing is still a bit high-end for Zhang Shengren, a diaosi who traveled through time in later generations.
"Rong Niang's uncle is the envoy of Meng Shu's Xuan Hui North Academy. He is well-known in Shu and is a Shu official who can be relied upon.
My second uncle, Han Baosheng, has become a famous doctor in the world. If a saint wants to compile a compendium of Chinese medicine that standardizes the world’s medicinal materials, he will definitely use Han Baosheng’s work.”
Xiao Sage, naked and graceful, said softly from behind that the so-called unbearable attack was just an excuse. Only exhausted cows could not plow the fields.
What she did today was entrusted by Queen Cao Yanxi.
Although Xiao Sage was very well-behaved because he regarded Saint Zhang as a god and Buddha descended to earth, and because of his status as the Queen of Khitan, he was quite favored.
But after all, she had been the Queen of Khitan, and she knew that pampering would fade away as time goes by.
The best example is Cao Yannai, the imperial concubine who was still the favorite in the harem five years ago. After she got old, although the saint often took her with him, she was actually used as a personal document. As for the bed, half a year
It’s a rare occasion.
Emperor Cao's concubine is like this. She, Xiao Sage, has no experience of sharing hardships with the emperor, nor does she have a good son who is famous all over the world, so she should pay more attention.
Therefore, she respected the Queen Cao Yanxi very much, and Xiao Sage, who was always by the emperor's side, would definitely fulfill the Queen's request.
Of course, in addition to the queen's entrustment, another noble concubine, Li Ruoliu, also entrusted Xiao Sagezhi.
Because uncle Zhao Rongnian was well-known in Shu, he also held an official position to appease the barbarians in the southwest.
It is no secret among the concubines that the emperor's eldest son, born to Concubine Li, will be arranged by the emperor to be the king of Dali.
Concubine Li was naturally willing to give Zhao Rongniang a push in order to give her son more help.
Zhao Rongniang was lying on the ground, and when she heard Xiao Sage's words, she raised her head, her adoring and passionate eyes almost melted Zhang Yan.
"Ever since the Jinghe River, everything owned by Rong Niang has belonged to the saint. Rong Niang is willing to serve the saint."
Okay, that's all. If you don't love me anymore, it would be rude.
Zhang Shengren then pulled up the pretty beauty on the ground, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this power is a good thing!
An uncle in his thirties is a teenager, and a teenage girl is attached to him life and death.
Of course, it was the Han family's line in Shu that ultimately made Zhang Gao make up his mind.
Zhang Gao is not worried about Shuzhong now, not in other aspects, but because Zhang Gao is afraid that the Yin Kites will fly away and he will not be able to control his soldiers.
You must know that these tens of thousands of warriors were the conquerors who went through many hardships and conquered Shuzhong. You can imagine with your toes how happy they felt after conquering the colorful world of Shuzhong.
Having narrowly escaped death and achieved great success, not to mention the army of this era, or the army of later generations, which soldier would not want to live the life of a conqueror?
The food, wine, beauties and goods were not enough, and the discipline of the army could not be controlled at all.
The little beauty in front of him has begun to undress and take off his clothes. Zhang Shengren is wrapped in two fiery bodies. There is a faint fragrance coming from the nose, and a soft and strong breathing sound can be heard in his ears.
But at this moment, Zhang Hao's thoughts were extremely clear. He could not wait any longer and had to send an angel to Shuzhong to assist Yin Zhengqi, the Yin Zhengqi, in regulating military discipline.
We cannot bring about the disaster that happened when Zhao Da released Wang Quanbin to Shu, and all of Shu rebelled.
....
Zhang Yan was very happy about Pei Yuan's arrival. The two had not seen each other for almost three years since Pei Yuan was guarding Liangzhou Prefecture in Chengtian, Xijing.
When they met again, except for his iconic slender eyes, Pei Yuan was completely different from when they met in Shazhou.
At that time, Pei Yuan was just a scribe who was so depressed that he went to Liangzhou to seek development, but now, he has become one of the most trusted scribes under Zhang Gao.
Pei Yuan was also very emotional. Before meeting Zhang Yan, he felt very uneasy. He didn't know whether the emperor's trust in him was still the same as before.
But after meeting each other, there was no need to say too many words. The feeling of intimacy between the monarch and his ministers, as if they were friends for many years, immediately dispelled all Pei Yuan's worries.
Zhang Gao sent his adopted son Li Congyi, Duke of Jinyang County, to personally lead two hundred elites from Hanshan City to welcome Pei Yuan from Fengxiang Mansion to the Suzaku Gate in Chang'an. He also personally drove the emperor's chariot to welcome him into the palace.
Pei Yuan knelt three times and kowtowed to Zhang Yan before driving off. Then Zhang Yan got out of the car and bowed his head in return. After the emperor and his ministers had finished paying homage to each other, Zhang Yan took Pei Yuan's arm into the palace together.
Pei Yuan was very cooperative and did not refuse Zhang Yan's courtesy, because he knew that Zhang Yan was preparing for his return to the court to preside over the major reforms of Buddhism and to create momentum.
....
To the west of Chang'an City, on the Dragon Head Plain, is the Weiyang Palace.
Zhang Yan did not fully restore the three major palaces of the Tang Dynasty in Chang'an, namely Taiji Palace, Daming Palace and Xingqing Palace.
Because Chang'an can no longer serve as the center of the country, there is no need to restore these palaces that have long been in ruins.
Therefore, in Zhang Zhou's Chang'an, only the Zhuque Gate was restored, the smaller Xingqing Palace was rebuilt on the basis of the original Xingqing Palace, and the famous Weiyang Palace was restored on the Longshou Plain.
Among them, Xingqing Palace can be used as a temporary residence for the prince and concubines until they wait in Chang'an, and now it is home to Li Shengtian and Cao Yuanxin.
Weiyang Palace is, of course, Zhang Yan's palace in Jingzhao Chang'an Prefecture.
However, compared to the Weiyang Palace that flourished in the Han, Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, Zhang Zhou's Weiyang Palace was much smaller in scale. It was mainly conveniently located on the high ground of Longshouyuan, which demonstrated Zhang Zhou's emphasis on and rule of Guanzhong.
After Pei Yuan and Zhang Yan entered the Weiyang Palace together, Zhang Yan immediately held a family banquet and invited King Li Shengtian of the Jin Kingdom, the eldest princess of the Wei Kingdom Cao Yuanxin and his wife, the eldest princess of South Korea Li Zhen'er, and the Marquis of Qiuci Cao Yanlu and his wife to accompany him.
Cao Sanniang's Yan Nai is of high standard.
This was completely a family banquet situation, because not only did Zhang Gao deliberately not let Pei Yuan perform the courtesy of a monarch, but he also asked Pei Yuan to bring his eldest son Pei Quanli, second son Pei Quanzhong, and eldest daughter Pei to pay homage.
These are Zhang Shengren’s future daughter-in-law and son-in-law. Of course, we must meet them in person.
Mrs. Pei was wearing a green and yellow skirt, and she tried her best to appear well-behaved in front of her future father-in-law, but she still couldn't stop her bold and generous temperament.
Of course, Zhang Hao had already known about this lady's style and was extremely satisfied with her.
Cao Yannai, on behalf of Zhang Zhi, even gave her the eight-treasure gold step, the top-grade Shu brocade, and the top-grade rouge and gouache from the tributes of Wu and Yue.
Pei Yuan's eldest son Pei Quanli is seventeen years old. He has been working with Pei Yuan as a personal follower, following Pei Yuan all the way to pacify the Han Dynasty, granting permission for civil and military orders, but he has been following Pei Yuan and has not yet had a chance.
He has done meritorious service, so his reputation is not obvious.
After hearing the high praise from his second son Zhang Xianyu, Zhang Xian summoned Hanlin bachelors, Deng Xunmei and Meng Binyu to come and examine him, and both of them were praised as "good".
Deng Xunmei and Meng Binyu were both famous writers and poets at this time. It was not easy to be praised by them for their kindness.
Although there is definitely an element of complimenting Pei Yuan in it, at least Pei Quanli still has some talent and learning.
Later, Zhang Gao ordered Pei Tongyuan, the military officer of the Privy Council, to test and teach him the art of war, and his response to the incoming flow was also praised by Pei Tongyuan.
When the little black bear Zhang Liechao saw that Pei Quanli received a lot of praise, he immediately expressed his intention to compete with Pei Quanli in shooting skills.
Others may know that this must be because the child is competitive, but Zhang Yan knows that this naughty little black bear must have benefited from Pei Yuan.
The result of the battle was no surprise to Zhang Yan. Although the little black bear stopped his attack, he still won 11 to 3.
In fact, this is quite possible. You must know that the little black bear Zhang Liechao is extremely talented. His father Zhang Haozhong is a real strong bear, and his mother is also a general and tiger girl of the Luo family in Shazhou.
Not to mention people like Pei Quanli who are about the same age as him, even a fully adult military commander, generally cannot defeat the little black bear.
Zhang Zhi was overjoyed, but it was a pity that the child's mother was from Taichang Temple's Jiaofang Snuole, and she was not the eldest daughter of Zhang Shengren, so he could only ask: "Dalang is indeed a young hero, would you like to stay with your uncle?"
Become a ten general?"
There are ten generals in Shandu, and they often have to guard the Forbidden Palace. They are not comparable to ordinary officers. However, Pei Quanli did not expect that he was unwilling, and he crossed his arms.
"The last general has thanked the saint for his love, but he is more willing to fight on the battlefield and guard the borders for the country than to stay in the imperial palace."
Pei Yuan's face looked a little embarrassed, maybe he didn't expect his eldest son Pei Quanli to say this.
Zhang Hao also sighed secretly in his heart, among high-ranking families, every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite!
Pei Quanli had merit in both civil and military affairs, but because of his background, the matter of Princess Shang was not his turn.
Of course, Zhang Yan had no intention of changing it. Without mentioning Pei Quanli's age, he just said that if he married his eldest daughter to the son of a Jiaofang maidservant, Queen Cao Yanxi would not be able to pass the test.
Of course, the most important thing is that Pei Quanli's talent is not worthy of Zhang Zhang's huge investment.
If Wei Qing or Huo Qubing were standing in front of him, no! Even if Di Qing was standing in front of him, Zhang Shengren would have already agreed.
"Quan Li has the heart to serve the country, and I just have a good place to go." Zhang Gao said to everyone with a smile.
"During the pseudo-Shi Jin Dynasty, after Duan Siping from the southwest attacked and destroyed the Yang family's Dayi Ning Kingdom, he asked Shi Jingtang for a title, and was awarded the position of Tong Hai Jiedushi.
Three years after I founded the country, my leader Duan Siying did not come to pay tribute. Could it be that I am not as good as Shi Jingtang?
Now that the Kingdom of Shu has been established and there are many people in Shu, I intend to send a general to sit in Shu to investigate the Duan family. We lack generals like Quan Li."
In fact, at this time, Duan Siying, the second generation emperor of Dali, had been ousted by his uncle Duan Siriang and was forced to become a monk in Chongsheng Temple, but Zhang Hao didn't know it yet.
Pei Yuan thought for a moment and knew what Zhang Hao was going to do.
It is a trivial matter to accuse the Duan family, but taking the opportunity to accuse the Duan family is to mobilize all the money, food, soldiers and generals in Shu, so that they have something to do and feel at ease, and even tie up ropes to the army that has just destroyed Shu.
the most important.
So Pei Yuan raised his hand and said, "If the saint wants to accuse the Duan family, he needs to send another angel to Sichuan to help him.
Cai Guogong is calm and steady enough to be worthy of a big task, but the new situation in Shu and people's hearts are not attached to it, so he may not be able to do everything in detail."
Zhang Hao knew that Pei Yuan understood what he meant, so he laughed twice and said, "I was about to discuss this matter with Yuying."
When the others heard what Zhang Yan said, they immediately knew that this welcoming family banquet was coming to an end. They all, including Li Shengtian, asked Zhang Yan to resign.
Zhang Gao also deliberately said a few words to Pei Yuan's second son, Pei Quanzhong. This boy was only nine years old, but he could already salute Zhang Gao like a young adult, and his etiquette was very thorough.
It can be seen that although the person is a bit dull, he is still quite smart. Maybe it is because of his strict tutoring that he looks a bit boring.
But Zhang Yan felt more relieved. Zhang Qinan was quirky and restless, so it wouldn't be a bad thing to give her a calmer husband.
After everyone left, Pei Yuan and Zhang Yan were left alone, which was wrong. There was also a historian responsible for recording the emperor's words and deeds and several close eunuchs in the distance.
A few eunuchs didn't care, but the historian could only hear beads of sweat rolling down his face, because the content of the conversation between the emperor and the governor of Hedong was really too explosive.
Moreover, the historian knows that after today's recording is completed, he will not be able to return home for at least half a year.
What Zhang Hao and Pei Yuan discussed was of course the reason why Pei Yuan wanted to come from Chengtian Liangzhou Prefecture to Jingzhao Changan Prefecture.
Pei Yuan came to replace Zhang Yan and complete the historical mission that should have been completed by Zhang Shengren.
Cure those Buddhist vested interests who have gone too far.
