Chapter 657

Zhang Zhao came to the palace gate to ask for an audience. The news reached Lu Xuan's ears, and Lu Xuan smiled softly.

Zhang Zhao was afraid.

So, hurry up and come to see me and express your stance.

Lu Xuan looked down upon Zhang Zhao who went to the county government in person to apologize and use this opportunity to beat Zhuge Liang.

You, the head of the civil service, went to a county government office that is as big as a sesame seed and personally apologized to a small county magistrate. It seems that you are highlighting yourself as a courteous and virtuous corporal with a broad mind, but in fact you are flattering others.

This is not good for Zhuge Liang.

Zhang Zhao is a capable person who can coordinate government affairs. Lu Xuan wants to use Zhang Zhao. However, Zhang Zhao makes mistakes from time to time and needs to be beaten twice.

Lu Xuan did not summon Zhang Zhao immediately. He waited for two quarters of an hour before calling Zhang Zhao in.

Zhang Zhao entered the main hall and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Zhang Zhao, pays homage to your Majesty."

Lu Xuandao: "Zhang Qing is exempt from courtesy."

Zhang Zhao slightly arched his back and said proactively: "Your Majesty, my lax management of the family has resulted in the Zhang family having a dog slave like Zhang Xi who has harmed the people. I am guilty. The news about Zhang Xi has seriously affected the reputation of the court. In addition, I

It was out of consideration to go to the county government office in person to apologize, and it also caused Zhuge Liang to fall into criticism, and I am guilty."

Lu Xuan said calmly: "Zhuge Liang is a young man and has just served as county magistrate. Such a young man really needs to hone himself. If anything happens, it's nothing. Just treat it as a tough job. You don't have to worry about it."

"Great King Shengming!"

Zhang Zhao spoke quickly.

It's just that he was dissatisfied in his heart.

It was said to be tempering, but Lu Xuan asked Zhuge Liang to accompany him to dinner, and also gave him a sword, so there was no sign of tempering.

Too protective of the calf.

He is the sharpener, use him as the whetstone.

Zhang Zhao did not dare to say anything, and said again: "What happened this time was my fault."

Lu Xuan said solemnly: "You are indeed at fault. Your family tradition is not correct and your upbringing is not strict. You are the official minister of Wu State, the head of hundreds of officials. The people in your family are domineering and rampant, and the influence is extremely bad."

"This must be stopped."

"Not only you, but also the officials of Wu State must investigate and correct themselves."

"This time Zhuge Liang's matter ends here. If a similar situation occurs next time, and the domestic slaves and family members of important officials in the court are found to oppress the people, act unscrupulously, violate laws and disciplines, they will be severely punished."

Lu Xuan said: "In the officialdom, many officials committed crimes because of their children, or because of the women in the family, and many of them ruined their futures. Zhang Qing, you should take this as a warning, and the whole country of Wu should also take this as a warning."

"I will remember your Majesty's teachings."

Zhang Zhao quickly answered.

He breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Xuan picked it up and put it down gently. He was lucky that he didn't deal with it.

At least, there will be no further pursuit.

If you don't come to apologize, Lu Xuan will remember it, and you will be in trouble when Lu Xuan wants to investigate.

Zhang Zhao has a way of doing things and is sometimes very tough, but in front of Lu Xuan, he has been dealt with many times and has long since lost the courage to confront Lu Xuan.

The ministers and the emperor fought for the right to speak in the court and to strengthen the power of ministers. Zhang Zhao had no idea at all. If you compete with the founding emperor for the right to speak, it is like an old man hanging himself because he feels impatient with his life.

Zhang Zhao bowed and resigned.

Lu Xuan looked at Zhang Zhao's leaving figure, smiled softly, and ignored the matter.

Lu Xuan put away the memorial in his hand, got up and went to the harem. There were too many beautiful women in the family, and he also had some worries, mainly because of the loss of others and the body.

There is no way, they are all monsters.

One night passed, and early the next morning, Zhang Zhao went to the Ministry of Personnel, summoned officials from the six departments, as well as the chief officials of Yushitai, Xiuyiwei and other departments to discuss matters, and announced that the family tradition should be rectified.

Correct and restrain family members.

Things were further fermented in the court.

Last night, many people didn't know that Lu Xuan asked Zhuge Liang to accompany him to dinner and gave him a sword. Therefore, some officials were a little confused by Zhang Zhao's arrangement and didn't understand why Zhang Zhao did this?

After everyone discussed it, they all knew about Lu Xuan's protection of the calf, and everyone understood it.

The officials in the center of Wu Kingdom were shocked.

Zhuge Liang was just a county magistrate, and the treatment given by Lu Xuan was completely cultivated by a favored minister. In the minds of officials, their views on Zhuge Liang changed again. Many people previously felt that Zhuge Liang's actions offended Zhang Zhao, and they were put on fire.

bake.

Now Zhang Zhao is being roasted on the fire and has become a joke.

Everyone in the court has already considered changing their attitude towards Zhuge Liang. As long as Zhuge Liang does not have any problems, his future will be bright.

During the rectification in the middle of the court, the troubles Zhuge Liang faced were solved. Even when Zhuge Liang was working in the county government, he clearly felt that the attitudes around him had changed. However, Zhuge Liang's attitude remained unchanged and he did whatever he had to do without being affected at all.

For him, everything is business as usual.

While Zhuge Liang was busy, on the official road outside the south of Nanjing City, a carriage carrying five large bags came slowly. On the carriage, sat a young man with shabby clothes, dark skin and a messy beard.

The young man is none other than Bu Zhao.

In the original assessment of the Five Classics Hall, Bu Zhi ranked second, second only to Zhuge Liang. At the Qionglin Banquet, Bu Zhi creatively proposed to weaken the big families and move them to Yuzhang, Kuaiji and other places in order to develop the south, but he was met with resistance.

suppress.

Lu Xuan gave the stallion the post of captain of the Diannong school, so he gave up the stallion and went south.

After a year and a half, Bu Zhao is back.

However, Bu Zhao's clothes are ragged, his shoes are tattered, and his body is dirty. He is completely unlike the elegant young man of the past. His current appearance, at a glance, seems to be that he is in his forties.

middle-aged people.

Look old!

Looking haggard!

I stepped out of the carriage, my steps a little sloppy.

He walked outside the city and looked at the towering city walls and the brand-new Nanjing City with admiration in his eyes. Although the people around him all avoided him when they saw that Bu Zhao was in ragged clothes and looked like a beggar.

However, Bu Zhao didn't care at all. His eyes were bright and excited.

On this trip south, he gained a lot.

Bu Zhao walked to the city gate, but was chased away by the soldiers at the city gate, who asked Bu Zhao to leave. Nanjing was the royal capital, and there were very few beggars like this. In fact, there were very few beggars like this in the entire Wu Kingdom.

Once a wandering beggar is found, the government will take it away directly and send it to the south, or to places like Qingzhou and Yuzhou. Because the country of Wu has a vast territory and is sparsely populated, it can accommodate the lives of the people.

Wu Yong, the general who was guarding the city gate, came over, looked at the ragged steps, frowned slightly and said: "Looking at you, you are a homeless person. Just wait, I will send someone to inform the county magistrate, and I will

Someone from the county government will settle you down and send you to a place where you can live."

Bu Zhi said quickly: "No need. I am Bu Zhi, a captain of Diannong School in Wu State. I am friends with Zhuge Liang, the magistrate of Nanjing. Please let me enter the city. I will go to the county government office to meet Magistrate Zhuge."

"Are you Captain Diannong?"

Wu Yong had doubts and disbelief on his face.

How could such a ragged man, who looked old and tired, be the captain of the Dian Nong School of Wu?

Bu Zhao said: "If the general doesn't believe it, send someone to inform him, and then he will know the truth. I am right here. If Zhuge County Magistrate does not come, you can do whatever you want with me and treat me as a joke. If Zhuge County Magistrate comes,

, a general can also have a good relationship, can't he?"

Wu Yong thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.

Zhuge Liang was the one who was given the sword by King Wu. If the person in front of him could be related to Zhuge Liang, it would be good if he could form a good relationship. After weighing it, Wu Yong said: "You wait, I will arrange for someone to notify you immediately."

Bu Zhi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much."

Wu Yong did not dare to delay and immediately arranged for someone to report to the county government in the city.
