Ancient promotion routine

"The summer in Zhongzhou is very hot. Because of this, Weichen did not let the people who came to Pingdingshan to mine mines go to work at noon. We uniformly adopted the method of getting up early and going to work when there was a little light. At noon, when the sun was hot, we rested. It doesn't matter whether it's Pingdingshan or other places." Zhang Yanjin explained lightly.

Huang Youze was dissatisfied and said, "Then how do you explain that you forced the people to dig deep into the ground to dig rocks when you couldn't dig out the ore? The people in Zhongzhou are miserable, and you still squeeze the people for your own selfishness. Where is your conscience?"

Zhang Yanjin was furious, this Huang Youze was throwing high hats one after another on his head, no matter in the previous life or in this life, what annoys him the most is this kind of people who always use such high-sounding words to oppress others.

Since Huang Youze likes to deal with him like this, then he will fight back with an eye, and let Huang Youze have a good taste of what it feels like to be overwhelmed by a high hat today!

"How can you say that you can't dig out ores in Pingdingshan? How can you say that you can't dig out ores?" Zhang Yanjin asked like a cannonball: "Just seeing the things in front of you, it is not imagination to speculate that I am squeezing the people. Is it too rich? Or is the understanding too shallow?"

After that, he looked at Zhou Qin and Gao Shijie again and said: "Mr. Ruiguo and Zhongshu Minister Gao, I follow the emperor's order to organize the people to dig mines and make the people rich. Is this a case of abusing power as one pleases? Zhang Yanjin doesn’t understand, so I ask the two adults to give me some advice.”

"Zhang Yanjin, after digging more than 40 meters, it took more than two months to dig out nothing. You still insist that you are mining. Are you fooling the emperor and the people?" Gao Shijie was very upset.In his opinion, today is a foregone conclusion. He really doesn't know where Zhang Yanjin got the courage to argue with him here confidently?

Zhou Qin didn't make a sound, he vaguely sensed something was wrong.

Zhang Yanjin was waiting for this moment, and he asked again: "There are thousands of things in the world, and there are all kinds of strange things in the world, each with its own characteristics, and there is no definite conclusion, but Mr. Gao and Duke Rui stick to the rules. Is there any rule that can be dug up to 40?" If Duomi can't dig out the minerals, there will be no minerals underground? I don't know enough, but I still like to speculate on others, aren't the two adults old and confused?"

As soon as he said this, there was an uproar in the hall. The status of Gao Shijie and Zhou Qin in the court can be said to be below one person and above ten thousand people, but now Zhang Yanjin dares to say that they are old fools!He also said that these two people don't know enough, they are simply young and frivolous, and they are risking the dissatisfaction of the world!

"Zhang Yanjin, you!" When Gao Shijie got angry, he breathed heavily, causing his beard to curl up.

Zhou Qin also had a cold look in his eyes, it was the first time someone dared to say that about him in court!More importantly, Zhang Yanjin is still a junior!

It is common for courtiers in the court to disapprove of each other's remarks. Zhou Qin and Gao Shijie have nothing against it, but now Zhang Yanjin says they are old and confused. This is an attack on themselves. How can this make them not angry? ?

Zhang Yanjin seemed not to have heard Gao Shijie's voice at all, he cupped his hands and raised the wat board and said, "Please give me another ten days, Your Majesty, I will definitely dig out the minerals at the bottom of Pingdingshan!"

The emperor finally saw what Zhang Yanjin, Li Lian, Chen Derang, and Zhang Zhongqian were up to. At this time, Zhang Yanjin was so swearing that he could dig out the minerals under Pingdingshan. He really believed that Zhang Yanjin could dig out the minerals. .

However, for Zhang Yanjin to bring Li Lian together, Chen Derang and the others set up a game to trap people like Gao Shijie, Zhou Qin, Chen Guogong and Han Hangong into it. Got a little interest.

"Okay, then I will give you another ten days." The emperor planned to wait and see what happened.In fact, he can roughly guess the direction of the next thing.

"Your Majesty, I still have a performance." Zhang Yanjin said again after thanking her.

Zhou Qin and Gao Shijie intentionally framed him behind his back, causing people to stir up troubles among the villagers of Danyang Village in Zhongzhou. This time, rumors arose in Zhongzhou, trying to put him to death. He just took revenge, but they kept bringing him He hasn't cleaned up the high hated Huang Youze yet.

"Say." The emperor raised his hand slightly.

Zhang Yanjin said unceremoniously: "This minister thinks that Huang Youze, as an admonisher, slandered his ministers without investigating the situation clearly. It is the emperor's sage who investigated the situation clearly and returned his innocence. This minister was not wronged. Que is the person who checks and fills in the gaps for the imperial court. It can be said that it is the foundation of the imperial court. If this kind of people who like to speculate on others continue to advise and fill in the gaps, abusing their power to frame local officials, the local officials will definitely feel cold in the long run , unable to serve the imperial court!"

Didn't Huang Youze throw high hats on his head one after another just now?Still talking about high-sounding?

He just wants to let him know now that it's not that he doesn't know these pediatric tricks, but that he doesn't bother to use them at all, and today he is using it for an eye for an eye, so that Huang Youze can taste it for himself!

Gao Shijie sneered, and said sarcastically: "Zhang Yanjin, you have not dug out the mine yet, and you say that we have wronged you. If the ten days are up and you have not dug out the mine, what should you say? You say we speculate, you Why not conjecture?"

"Since you said that there are minerals under Pingdingshan, can you tell us what kind of minerals it is?" Rui Guogong Zhou Qin also asked repeatedly.

Zhang Yanjin was most annoyed by Gao Shijie's way of talking and talking. He has always done things neatly and without sloppiness. To him, playing word games is intrigue instead of doing practical things.

Although he doesn't like to play word games, it doesn't mean that he is not logical. After all, he has a background in science, right?

He turned sideways, looked directly at Gao Shijie, Zhongshu's servant, and said frankly: "It is still unclear whether the mine can be dug out or not, but you all make a conclusion now that I can't dig it out. ?”

After that, he looked at Rui Guogong Zhou Qin and said, "What I want to dig is the salt mine hidden under the Pingding Mountain."

Chen Guogong, who is a general, actually burst out laughing when he heard the words.

Gao Shijie even said directly: "Zhang Yanjin, what you said is really ridiculous! Three-year-old children know that only places near the sea have salt lakes. You actually said that there are salt mines under Pingdingshan. What a joke!"

Others were also talking about it, and even wondered if they had heard it wrong.

Even Li Lian, Chen Derang, and Ning Guogong Zhang Zhongqian were sweating slightly on their backs. They felt that Zhang Yanjin was simply playing tricks on them, and regretted that they believed Zhang Yanjin yesterday without asking what kind of mineral Zhang Yanjin was.

It is an undoubted fact that Zhang Yanjin is more sensitive than ordinary people in various signs of mineral excavation. In addition, Li Lian, Chen Derang, and Zhang Zhongqian are not good at this, and the three of them are thinking about what to do. The layout, plus Zhang Yanjin's intentional concealment, so the three of them ignored this point.

The emperor couldn't help wondering whether Zhang Yanjin was really wrong this time, but he didn't speak, but waited for everyone to speak.

"At the beginning, everyone said coal was useless and poisonous, but what about now? How much warmth does coal bring us in winter?" Zhang Yanjin raised the wat board in his hand and said, "Since the emperor gave me ten days, how can I Please ask the emperor to wait for ten days, and after ten days, I will definitely give the emperor a satisfactory reply."

You are not joking, just now the emperor said that he would give Zhang Yanjin ten days, and he could not change it at this time, so he nodded and said: "Okay, ten days if you say ten days, I will give you ten days from Zhongzhou after ten days." I hand over the memorial of the good news!"

As soon as the emperor said this, the discussions below all died down.In a feudal society, once the emperor's words came out, it was basically equivalent to making a conclusion on this matter. In addition, there was no discussion about Zhang Yanjin's mining in Pingdingshan. This matter is no longer discussed.

Rao felt that it was impossible for Zhang Yanjin to dig out the salt mine in Pingdingshan. When Zhou Qin and Gao Shijie walked out of the hall, their faces were blue and they were very depressed.

It's unreasonable for them to be called foolish by a junior like Zhang Yanjin in the court hall!They have been in high positions for a long time, and they are veterans of a generation. Naturally, they are respected wherever they go. That is why a junior suddenly jumped out to resist them, and even bluntly said that they are old and foolish, which made them even more unacceptable. , the stimulation to them is also greater.

Now they can't wait to peel Zhang Yanjin directly, so as to relieve the hatred in their hearts!

But after all, they are not people who act on their own will, especially Zhou Qin, who calmed down quickly and began to sort out today's affairs.

Chen Derang and Zhang Zhongqian's silence, Li Lian's objection at the last moment, and Zhang Yanjin's swearing assurance all made him feel something was wrong.

After all, Zhang Yanjin was in charge of Zhongzhou's affairs, and Chen Su's participation involved Chen Derang and Zhang Zhongqian, but these two people did not say a word in the court today, they were too calm.

Today in the court hall, hundreds of officials were quarreling. It was not obvious that these two people were silent, but after thinking about it afterwards, it was too strange. After all, Zhang Yanjin was the target of public criticism at that time, but Zhang Zhongqian and Chen Derang, these two old guys were still so calm .

Furthermore, the timing of Li Lian's opening was too strange, as if he was waiting for his own speech to refute, this timing was too coincidental.

In an instant, Zhou Qin felt like a gust of wind swept through his heart. His hands were tightly clenched, and the knotted veins on the back of his hands burst out. He was plotted against.

After coming down to court, Zhang Zhongqian, Chen Derang, and Li Lian were appointed officials of the imperial court and needed to be on duty in the palace. Naturally, there was no way to meet Zhang Yanjin face to face, so Zhang Yanjin went out alone.

Coming out of the palace, after Zhang Yanjin and Li Ying met, they explained in detail what happened in the court.

After Li Ying heard Zhang Yanjin said that he was going to dig a salt mine, his expression froze immediately, and he frowned and said, "Erlang, you are not kidding me, are you?"

"Do you think I am teasing you?" Zhang Yanjin smiled.When he thought of Zhou Qin and Gao Shijie turning blue with anger when they came out of the hall, he wanted to laugh.

No matter how angry these two old foxes were, they wouldn't have too many expressions on their faces.

But it was precisely because of this that it was enough to see how angry they were from the blueness of their faces.
