Prime Minister

Chapter 194 Look at people
After Zhang Yue returned to the Zhaishe, Fan Zuyu took the initiative to inquire about the fact that he was going to visit Wu's family and asked if he would go with him.

Zhang Yue was taken aback for a moment, and then thought that Fan Zuyu and the Wu family seemed to be related by marriage.

He only knew that Fan Zuyu's aunt, Fan Zhen's daughter, seemed to be married to Wu Anshi.Of course, Fan Zuyu never mentioned the matter of his engagement to Lu Gongbi's daughter.

The yamen generally keep secrets about their own backgrounds.

Of course, Fan Zuyu didn't know that Zhang Yue and Wu's family had already agreed to get married, but he just knew that his aunt reminded him to get close to Zhang Yue.

Fan Zuyu had a good relationship with Zhang Yue, and now he took the initiative to ask Zhang Yue if he wanted to go to Wu's house.

Zhang Yue replied that he and Ouyang Fa had already made an appointment, and Fan Zuyu said happily: "It turns out that the head of the house also has contacts with Bo He, which is really great."

Zhang Yue wondered why Fan Zuyu had contact with Ouyang Fa?

When Zhang Yue asked, he found out that when Fan Zhen was still a commoner, Xue Kui, the prefect of Chengdu, had already appreciated him, praised him as a man of the temple, and invited him to the official residence in Chengdu to give lectures to his children.

Later, when Xue Kui returned to Beijing, others asked him what he had gained from going to Chengdu.Xue Kui said that when I went to Chengdu this time, I met a man named Fan Zhen, and his articles will definitely become famous all over the world in the future.

Sure enough, Fan Zhen won the first prize in the examination.

As for Ouyang Xiu's father-in-law is Xue Kui, he and Fan Zhen also got in touch with each other because of this, and then the two studied the new Tang book together, and their contacts became more frequent.

Ouyang Xiu often took Fan Zhen and Wu Chong to small banquets, so Fan Zhen and Wu Chong became acquainted with each other, and the two became married to their daughters.

Zhang Yue listened to these abducted and abducted relationships, and the Xindao bosses really knew how to play.

Generally, the bigwigs will have a small circle, and then the people in the small circle will draw a small circle, and then the officials of the Manchu Dynasty will be surrounded by such small circles one after another. If you want to have something to do with someone, just follow the circle to find them.

Zhang Yue sighed, it turns out that the country's major affairs are corrupted like this, but now he is also in the network of relationships.

Fan Zuyu said that he was acquainted with Ouyang Fa, so Zhang Yue agreed that everyone would go to Wu Mansion to visit together.

On this day, Zhang Yue and the two went to Wu Mansion together.

When they arrived at the gate of the Wu Mansion, Ouyang Fa, Fan Zuyu and their entourage went to collect and carry gifts.

As for Zhang Yue, he waited in front of the door for a while.

Coincidentally, Zhang Yue met He Qi in front of the Wu Mansion.

Zhang Yue knew that He Qi had a friendship with Wu Anshi, but unexpectedly the Wu Mansion would also invite him to visit.Zhang Yue couldn't help but sigh deeply that He Qi really knows how to exploit.

Zhang Yue knew He Qi's character from the time he was copying books in Wu's Bookstore.

But having said that, in fact, everyone is very disgusted with people who are exploited, and the reason is that the person who is exploited is not you.If you are the one being exploited, then you will look at this person much more pleasingly.

But seeing He Qi looking at Zhang Yue up and down, he smiled and said, "Sanlang, why did you come to the Wu Mansion to copy books again today?"

Faced with He Qi's teasing, Zhang Yue felt a little funny, cupped his hands and said, "Qilang don't make fun of me."

He Qilang laughed loudly and said: "Sanlang, I'm just telling you a joke, you and I are from the same town, and it's good to be a good student in Bianjing, but I don't give you face when I invite you a few times. I am familiar with this Wufu, You can do nothing wrong with following me."

Speaking of this, He Qi pulled Zhang Yue closer and said: "This kind of family has many rules, and they don't know how to offend others if they are careless for a while. Let's be more careful. Sanlang, why don't you see your entourage?"

Zhang Yue said, "I don't have any followers."

He Qi was surprised and said: "Then you come here alone with the gift?"

Zhang Yue said: "That's not true. It has already been sent. Yes, what gift did Qilang prepare?"

He Qi smiled lightly and said: "It's okay. The Wu family is not short of gold or silver, so if you give me ordinary things, you will be a philistine. I have to give some unique ones."

Zhang Yue and He Qi are going around, just not telling the truth.

Zhang Yue suddenly remembered that He Qi asked a friend to sell the winter fur coat last month, thinking about it...

Zhang Yue looked at He Qi's gift and thought about it a little bit. I couldn't do it all because of this.

"Junmin! I'm here."

Zhang Yue asked, "Brother He is not alone?"

He Qi nodded and said, "I also brought a friend."

Zhang Yue thought to himself, can a person like He Qi still have friends?

Zhang Yue turned his head to look, but saw a man in his twenties who was wearing a silk robe approaching.This man has an extraordinary appearance and looks gentle and elegant, which makes people feel good.

Zhang Yue saluted, and the young man cupped his hands and said, "My Wang Kui, whose name is Junmin, is coming to Bianjing for the second time."

He Qi proudly introduced: "Whether it is Junmin's poems or prose, his articles can be a watch for a lifetime."

Zhang Yue thought, Wang Kui?
This person is so familiar, it seems that Zhang Yue used to see this person in a play. After the other party won the number one prize, he abandoned a prostitute who had followed him for many years.

This drama seems to be quite famous.

I don't know if it is this person.

If it is true, then he is the number one scholar in Jiayou's six years.

But I don’t know if the things in the drama are true or not. Most of the time, art comes from life. For example, Grand Master Pang and Pan Mei are quite wronged.There are many dramas that are unreliable.

He Qi said to Zhang Yue: "This Zhang Sanlang I mentioned to you, he is from my hometown, and he wrote the Heart Attack League."

Wang Kui smiled and said: "It turned out to be Duzhi. I heard your name after I arrived in Bianjing. Earlier, the emperor ordered the governor to reject you. I felt sorry for you at the time, but now I am relieved. Zhang Brother Fei Huang Tengda is just around the corner, and Mr. Wang would like to congratulate you first."

Zhang Yue feels that this person is much better than He Qi, and he speaks nicely. It seems that what is mentioned in the play is unreliable.

Zhang Yue said with a smile: "From now on, I will borrow Junmin's auspicious words."

He Qi smiled and said: "Okay, you two have made great achievements, don't forget to support me in the future!"

The three laughed again.

At this time Fan Zuyu and Ouyang Fa came, Zhang Yue said: "My companion is also here."

Fan Zuyu He Qi recognized it, but when he found out that it was Ouyang Fa, he was surprised.

The eldest son of Ouyang Xiu, the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture, He Qi was secretly shocked and thought, how did Zhang Yue and Ouyang Fa become friends?This person is really not to be underestimated, I really despised him before.

Wang Kui greeted him neither humble nor overbearing, and did not know that the other party was Ouyang Xiu's son, and his expression and attitude changed significantly.

Everyone arrived in front of the mansion to report.

He Qi, Wang Kui came at the invitation of Wu Anshi, so he followed his servants to another place.

As for Ouyang Fa, Fan Zuyu and Zhang Yue, they went directly to the main hall to meet Li Taijun.

The three of them walked all the way. When Ouyang Fa talked about He Qi and Wang Kui, he seemed to have a bad impression. As for why it was not good, he didn't explain why.

Here Wang Kui, He Qi and Wu Anshi are talking.

Wang Kui was talented, eloquent, and flattering, so Wu Anshi liked it very much after some conversations.

Wu Anshi took Wang Kui's hand and smiled: "Junmin and I really didn't meet each other so late!"

Wang Kui smiled and said, "Thanks to Mr. Dalang's attention."

He Qi smiled and said: "Mr. Dalang, I'm right, if there is one stone in the world, Junmin can monopolize it."

"You deserve what you say, you deserve what you say." Wu Anshi kept nodding her head and said thoughtfully, if it's true what he said, it shouldn't be a problem to learn from this person's writing.

If this is the case, it can be settled early and leave a fate for the future.As for He Qi, who is also smart and able to do things, although he has other plans, he is not worried that he will replace him if he recommends this person, but he is a solid person.

Wu Anshi smiled, took a sip from the teacup, He Qi and Wang Junmin also suppressed their smiles and listened to Wu Anshi's orders.

Wu Anshi said: "Junmin, you are so young and talented, I wonder if you can deny the marriage?"

Wang Kui was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he said with shame on his face: "I'm so poor that I don't dare to expect to be favored by others, let alone delay beautiful women!"

Wu Anshi asked in surprise and joy: "Is this really true? Has no one ever talked about kissing?"

Wang Kui shook his head, and said sadly: "I have been alone so far, and my parents are old and have no one to depend on. How could a girl from a good family fall in love with her?"

"Now I only want to get the first grade in the department, and I don't dare to think about other things."

"It's really hard to bear? Then when Junmin comes to Beijing this time, how will his parents settle down, and what will he do to make a living?"

Wang Kui sighed: "I really can't bear to be a son of man. My parents at home rely on friends to help them settle down. As for after they came to Bianjing, they lived frugally and sometimes even helped others to do some work to make up for it."

"It's really hard. But Junmin is so poor and has such talents, he really obeyed the saying that good talents come from poverty."

Wu Anshi believed Wang Junmin's words when he saw that he was wearing a thin robe.

Wu Anshi nodded and said: "Don't worry, Junmin, if you pass the Jinshi, you won't have to worry about not having a woman from a good family fall in love with you in the future."

Wang Junmin said: "I would like to thank Mr. Dalang for his words. I will definitely keep them in my heart. If there is a day in high school in the future, I will come to thank you."

Wu Anshi smiled and said, "Where?"

"Come on!"

After Wu Anshi ordered, two servants of the Wu family came here with a plate of silver each.

Wu Anshi smiled at the two of them and said, "Some gifts are not respect."

Wang Kui and He Qidu declined a few words, but they accepted Wu Anshi's insistence.

"Brother Wang and Brother He have a banquet, and there are other guests, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you."

Wang Kui and He Qi all stood up.

After Wu Anshi left, she murmured to herself while walking, what is a noble son from a poor family?He Qi is a bit inferior, but he is still a hero anyway, and this Wang Kui is simply a dragon and phoenix among the poor.

Only such a character can be called a real talent.

Wu Anshi thought to herself, why didn't she meet Wang Junmin sooner, otherwise...

Thinking of this, Wu Anshi couldn't help but let out another long sigh.

Of course, he didn't intend to let the Wu family regret their marriage, even if there was such a family, it would not be his turn to decide.Ke Zhangyue rejected the errand he sent to Tang Jiu before, obviously because he didn't want to get along with him.

This made Wu Anshi feel that although Zhang Yue has made progress now, he is definitely not as good as Wang Junmin in terms of talent, and he is not so good in terms of success. Can he really be counted on in the future?

My father's vision is always very accurate, why did he miss Shi Qi's marriage this time.

Wu Anshi thought to herself, now she has no choice but to admit it!
