Zhang Zan took his younger brother Zhang Yu to send Rong Guogong and his son out of the mansion. Although they are in-laws, this is the second time that Rong Guogong has visited the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Jia Daishan stopped at the door, reaching out his hand to stop the Zhang family brothers who wanted to see them off.

"Jichen, no matter what it is for, being able to bend and stretch is what a man does. Your father is old, and your family will rely on you to support the lintel in the future, and even Marquis Enhou will rely on you for help in the future. I also want to be happy, old man. Revenge, I’ve been thinking about it for more than 40 years.”

Jia Daishan said these words to Zhang Zan with great regret, and then he took Jia Amnesty and walked out of Zhang Taifu's prime minister's residence.At that moment, Zhang Zan looked at the back of Rong Guogong, who looked a little hunched under the background of his brother-in-law Enhou, and his spirit seemed to be hit hard.

My father is nearly seventy years old, if it wasn't for the Taishang's persuasion, my father would have retired long before the Taishang's Zen position.But today, my father forcibly stood out in Wenyuan Pavilion, and he did not hesitate to use a stroke to prevent himself from continuing to contradict the saint. Why?Is it the wrong way to go straight on the avenue you believe in?When the sage was the prince...

Zhang Zan stood at the gate of his house as if possessed by a demon, looking at the direction where Duke Rong, father and son rode their horses away.

Zhang Yu is different from Zhang Zan. When his father was teaching his eldest brother, he was a little older than his elder brother, and he soon had a younger sister and younger brother. His mother couldn't take care of him, and most of them let him grow up naturally.What Rong Guogong said was nothing to him. For the sake of a saint, if he wanted to pardon a woman, only a fool like his elder brother would be as good as a saint.

Brother Zhang Zan went back to his father's bedroom.The story of the old lady Fu's stroke has to continue. Apart from the Jia family and his son, even Mrs. Zhang thinks that the old lady had a stroke.It's just because the imperial medicine was prescribed in time, that's why he didn't carry it home with crooked eyes.

Zhang Zan entered his father's bedroom and saw his mother feeding his father porridge with tears in his eyes.Guilt flooded him like a tidal wave.

"Mother, let your son and second brother take care of your father."

Zhang Zan hurried to get the porridge bowl in his mother's hand.

Mrs. Zhang refused to let go.

"You two big men, how can you take good care of your father. You all go to rest."

Zhang Yu was nimble, quickly supported his mother's arm, and said with a smile: "The son knows that the mother is reluctant to let the father suffer. Why don't you come and see once every hour to see if the son and the elder brother have taken good care of the father. If there is something not thoughtful, change it Mother coming by herself? Mother, you see that even though father doesn't say anything, he still loves you. You can rest well, and father will recover sooner if he doesn't worry about you. "

After coaxing and persuading, Zhang Yu got old Mrs. Zhang away.He also drove everyone else out and stood at the door to guard the door for his father and elder brother.

The old lady hurriedly grabbed the porridge bowl in the hand of her eldest son, and poured it into her mouth after a few mouthfuls.

"Father, eat slowly." Zhang Zan persuaded, and conveniently brought Taifu Zhang some side dishes.

A bowl of porridge went into his stomach, and the old lady got over her nerves and wanted to go to the ground to change her clothes. Zhang Zan quickly reached out to help.

"Stupid!" Taifu Zhang swung his arms, spitting at Zhang Zan, "I didn't have a stroke."

Zhang Zan took a step back and bent down to put on the shoes for the master.Then the water was turned off to wash the Tai Tu's hands and handed him a towel.

"Juchen, have you figured out what's going on today?"

"Father, my son is wrong." Zhang Zan knelt down and admitted his mistake.

"Jichen, it's not time for you to study now. Look at Duke Rong, and then look at all the cabinet ministers. When it's time to speak out, which one has flinched? Look at the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Those corrupt officials, do they really know nothing about it?"

Zhang Zan was ashamed. According to his old habits, he would have to say goodbye to his father and say something about the negligence of the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Now he gritted his teeth and silently recited it as a habit, and he had to weigh the consequences before speaking.

Seeing his son's gritted teeth expression, Zhang Taifu was overjoyed. This appearance meant that he had listened to what he and Rong Guogong had to say.

"Juchen, get up."

Zhang Zan knelt down guiltily.

"Do you still want to help you up for your father?"

Zhang Yu, who was guarding the door, was both embarrassed and worried about his elder brother. His elder brother was too honest.

Embarrassed, Zhang Zan quickly got up by himself, "Father, don't be angry, it's my son's fault."

"Oh, Juchen. It's all my father's fault. In the past, I emphasized too much on being a gentleman, and taught you to be too upright. As for today's matter alone, although there are three principles and five constant principles, there are still wives. The penalty for killing a wife should be the same as that for beating a husband.”

Zhang Zan was a little dazed, with his mouth half-opened. Is this how the so-called "wives are equal"?

"The husband guides the wife because the man reads, works, and travels outside. He is well-informed and can guide his wife in world affairs. Although the three obediences and four virtues are what women in the boudoir should learn, the 'obedience' of marrying and obeying the husband is to assist The husband manages the housework and educates the children, not the obedience and obedience that the pedantic master said. If you don’t have a thorough understanding of the three cardinal principles and five constant principles, it will be difficult for you to advance in the position of the minister of punishment. You go back and think about it, why? The Supreme Being is on the Zen position? The rapid retreat is called knowing the opportunity, how should we interpret these words, and what should be the interpretation of judging the situation? Go ahead."

Zhang Zan shook his head and left his father's bedroom.What Rong Guogong said to him before he left the Zhang family was like thunder and shocking; his father's words were like enlightenment, making him think again about the definition of the three cardinal principles and five constant principles.

When Zhang Yu passed by his elder brother, he said softly, "If you stick to the rules, you will not move forward. Only by adapting to the situation can you have a bright future."

Zhang Zan looked at the second younger brother who was already a concubine. In the past, he felt that the second younger brother was too impetuous, but now he vaguely felt that he could not be flexible.

Zhang Taifu rested at home for more than ten days.These days, he brought his eldest son and second son with him every day, and taught him as he did during the enlightenment.Patiently and meticulously analyze all the possible tortuous appeals behind all the big and small things, from the royal family to the courtiers, from the courtiers to my own family, and from my own family to the in-laws, and give my two sons a comprehensive analysis. The eldest son and the second son express their opinion.

This kind of explanation made Zhang Zan suddenly enlightened.It also made the old master realize that the second son is more talented than the eldest son, and is more suitable for the position of cabinet minister.Given time, the eldest son may not be able to walk higher than the second son.Maybe the leader of the Zhang family will be the second son.

This realization not only filled the old matriarch with the satisfaction of having a successor, but also made the old matriarch feel uneasy. Can the eldest son accept that his younger brother, who is so much younger than him, is better than him?Whether the brothers can join hands has become the focus of his thoughts day and night, of course, this is a later story.

When attending the Great Court Meeting again, the sage prepared a seat for the old matriarch, and the old matriarch thanked the saint for his kindness and sat down grandly.

And Zhang Zan became much calmer after the old lady Fu had a sudden stroke.To say that he was like a sharp sword out of its sheath in the past, but now it is a bit like a treasured sword in its sheath, hiding its edge.

The Taishang taught the saints about Zhang Taifu's "stroke".

"Ming Yun, why did I keep Zhang Ying? It's because there are some political matters in the court, and he needs to come forward at a critical time. His stroke is to suppress the objections of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. If Zhang Zan can get the hang of it, that's all. Otherwise, you'd better find someone else as soon as possible. Candidates for the Ministry of Criminal Affairs."

"What my father said is true. The position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment must be upright and upright, putting the court laws first, and not sticking to the rules. The world changes with time, and the laws of a hundred years ago cannot meet the needs of the present. It's a normal thing. If you are stubborn and don't want to change, you will just repeat the mistakes of the previous regime sooner or later."

Taishang agrees with the saint's point of view.

"Those veterans, all of them have rich experience and excellent abilities. The emperor has selected them for many years to get these people. You can use them when you need them. If someone relies on the old to sell the old and doesn't know how to do things, you might as well send him to the Palace of Compassion. Hmph .”

The Taishang was very annoyed that there were still people who wanted to stop his son's decree of amnesty.Does my son need these rammed goods to teach the three cardinal principles and five constant principles?

"Ming Yun, the so-called those who follow me will prosper and those who oppose me will die. Although it doesn't sound good, you have to stand up slowly as a king should have the majesty. Although a benevolent king sounds good, you can't be bound by the word 'benevolence' Don't condone those who should be reprimanded. Those who have lost their father-jun in their eyes have the nerve to raise three key points!"

saint:……

Not enough prestige!

The prince didn't see the Taifu coming to class, and asked the Taishang, the emperor learned that the Taifu had a "stroke", and immediately informed Jia Hu.

Jia Hu's tears came out immediately, his grandfather treated him as well as his grandfather, he didn't dare to ask the Supreme Emperor for leave, so he tortured Rong Guogong who came to teach martial arts.

"Grandfather, my grandfather had a stroke, and my grandson is going to see my grandfather."

Jia Daishan held his tearful grandson in his arms and felt distressed, "Grandfather and your father sent him back home. Your grandfather is recuperating at home, and he will be back to give you lessons in a few days."

Jia Hu hugged Jia Daishan's neck and choked up sobbing. Jia Daishan couldn't help it, so he went to discuss with the Supreme Emperor and wanted to ask his grandson for a day off.

The Supreme Emperor teased Jia Daishan, "Old Jia, don't tell me that you don't know about Zhang Ying's stroke. The two young ones take a bath every five days, and Ming Yun treats them leniently enough. I think Ming Yun and Enhou had nothing to do except for the New Year's Day. Where have you ever rested? You still ask for leave, you are doting on your grandson."

Jia Daishan's old face was neither red nor white, "Your Majesty, the old minister is also thinking about the reputation of the crown prince and Hu'er. If the crown prince can replace you and the sage to visit the grand tutor, it will be a good reputation."

Taishang thought about it, "Let Enhou take the two of them there, don't make Zhang Ying have to rest."

So Tu Gen got the chance to go to the courtier's house for the first time.

Jia Amnesty took dozens of his entourage, surrounded by the prince and Jia Hu's carriage, and went to Zhang's mansion.There has always been a lot of battle between the sons of Rong Guogong and the Zhang Mansion, and the neighbors of the Zhang Mansion didn't take it seriously, thinking that the daughter of the Zhang family was sitting in the carriage with the logo of the Rong Guo Mansion.

When they got to the second gate, Zhang Zan, who had received a letter to greet him, hurriedly saluted the prince when he saw him.

Tu Gen stopped Zhang Zan who was saluting, "Master Zhang, I will accompany Jia Hu to see the Grand Tutor alone, so don't be too polite."

Zhang Zan gave Jia Amnesty a sideways look, which meant that he didn't know how to deliver a letter first.He hugged his elder nephew who was saluting to him with joy, "My good boy, I know I miss your grandfather."

Jia Amnesty looked at Zhang Zan's gaze, and said in his heart: I was training hard in the Beijing camp, and then I was called to the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

With this little delay at the second gate, Taifu Zhang got the prince and grandson Jia Hu to come and see his news.He quickly changed his clothes, went to bed to pretend to be sick, and leaned half on the bedside to wait for the prince and grandson to come in.
