Chapter 279 Waiting(2/2)
Zhang Yue hurriedly asked Zhang Heng, "Zhai, what are you doing?"
When Zhang Heng saw Zhang Yuelai, he smiled and said, "Duzhi, you finally came. If the palace examination is a few days later, you may not see me."
Zhang Yue asked: "Are you still doing well after the provincial examination? Where are the slaughter leaders so anxious to go?"
Zhang Heng put down the book and leaned on the chair and said, "You have been busy with palace examinations these days, and I have not sent anyone to tell you. A few days ago, I wrote to the emperor and said that the funds collected by the three departments are not very much and have no budget. When they are urgently used, they will collect them from the people, and they will be forced to make trouble for them."
Zhang Yue was shocked when he heard this and said, "Zhai Chief, are you saying that someone in the Three Divisions is taking an empty salary?"
Zhang Heng nodded and said, "Don't this understand? I have been an official in the Sansi for two years, and I can't stand it anymore."
Zhang Yue said: "Why should Chief Zhai do this? Now he has not only offended the officials of the Sansi, but also punished the Sansi."
Zhang Yue thought that the current envoy of the Three Sessions of Quan was Cai Xiang. Zhang Heng had worked hard for him in the court because of Zhang Wangzhi's affairs.
The two have been in conflict for a long time. Now Cai Xiang has gone from Quan Zhidao Kaifeng Prefecture to Quan Li's envoy, and has become Zhang Heng's immediate superior. Did Zhang Heng ask for it because of this?
But when Zhang Heng saw Zhang Heng said, "The relationship between me and the plan has long passed. Everyone should not violate the river. This memorial has nothing to do with him, but I really don't like it and don't want to be in a relationship with these people. After I submitted the memorial, I knew that the three officials would not tolerate me, so I had already asked the court for the county, and the order would come down soon."
Speaking of this, Zhang Heng said to Zhang Yue seriously: "How can you save it?"
Zhang Yue said: "Save it, the head of Zhai has always taught us that the children of the Zhang family must be lonely ministers."
Zhang Heng said with a righteous face: "That's true, since you want to be an isolated minister, you cannot form a clique for personal gain, be in harmony with others, and be in vain. Therefore, I wrote a letter to expose this matter and requested a foreign position. Even if my career was setback, the reputation of my Zhang family's children should not be damaged."
Speaking of this, Zhang Heng's face was just now covered with blood.
"Okay, I won't say these things. Since you are here today, I will just take it for me. The will will be implemented in these two days. I am afraid that I will only learn about you on the way. But it doesn't matter. No matter where I am, I will be happy for you. Today, I will have a few drinks."
After saying that, the servant sifted wine for the two of them and served a few side dishes to drink.
The two sat down and talked about interesting stories about studying in Nanfengyuan.
Zhang Heng changed his mind and said, "You are only seventeen years old this year. With your talent, you are no problem to be the first in the current academic year. If you can win the top scorer, you will be the youngest top scorer in our Song Dynasty."
Zhang Yue put a piece of fresh fish in his mouth and said, "How dare you expect the top scholar to have a long time to eat wine."
Zhang Heng drank a cup of wine, his face flushed a little red, and he sighed, "Yes, the official family ordered me to be the top scorer four years ago, and two years ago, his second brother was the fifth. If you want to enter a higher level in this subject, I am afraid that many officials and scholars will criticize us, saying that our Zhang family is not alone. The official family will not order another Zhang family to be the top scorer four years later."
Zhang Yue smiled and said, "I just want to be within the second class."
Zhang Heng said: "If you want to enter the second grade in the provincial examination, you will be less than the second grade. It's really a waste of time."
Zhang Yue was silent for a while, and then said, "It doesn't matter which way to wait, you can marry a wife."
