Chapter 499
The recruitment of scholars was not only a big deal for scholars in the world, but also for the court. After the imperial edict was issued, the various departments of the court became busy. However, this had nothing to do with Zhang Changzong's Jinwu Guard. There were some small troubles in Chang'an City, but nothing big deal.
Empress Wei, Anle was not a person who could convince the public. The people in the mansion worked as a result, and the trees fell and the money scattered, and went their separate ways. There was no loyalty to them even if they rebelled and died. The Wei family had already killed them, but they were not as good as the flow of the flow. The Wu family had only Wu Youji, a branch, was still in a high position and was too late to be low-key, so how could they dare to make trouble? For Zhang Changzong, Chang'an City is now a peaceful Chang'an City, and nothing special happened.
Seeing others busy and their lives are actually a very happy thing. Zhang Changzong is not a waste of time. When there are fewer business every day, he is always willing to spend time reading and writing. These two things will be rewarding when they spend time. If you persist, you will feel pleasant and satisfied. Zhang Changzong is very happy to do it and is very attentive to do it.
The one who brought him back to his senses was Princess Taiping, who sent the couple to the mansion and asked, "Have your master's filial piety period arrived?"
Princess Taiping, who had a delicate relationship with his master, actually remembered his master's filial piety period—
Zhang Changzong paused for a moment before he realized, and he was serious on his face, silently covering his face in his heart, and replied, "It's time to be filial."
Finally, I could sleep openly with my wife, and I was cheating myself while cheating my master. What a trick! Zhang Changzong felt a little vicissitudes, but he was still the kind that he could not speak to others. With this feeling, Zhang Changzong's expression was a little complicated: "I will have three days to go back to my mother-in-law."
Princess Taiping looked a little sad, nodded, and said, "I will call me to come to the festival together, and I will meet Shangguan. Now... forgot, it's better not to say it, I hope she will rest in peace in the nine springs."
But my master is not dead!
This sentence must not be said, and Zhang Changzong could only agree dryly. Fortunately, Princess Taiping thought he was in a bad mood and didn't doubt it much.
After three days of filial piety, the ones that should be sacrificed and burned, causing people to clean up the house from inside to outside, from top to bottom. Although the one who buried his master in the tomb was not his master, Zhang Changzong still did what he should be done seriously and could not make mistakes in etiquette and law.
After completing the filial piety according to etiquette, Zhang Changzong held a banquet to invite relatives and friends to have a meal. What the women were talking about was not sure. Xue Chongyin came over with his wine glass and squeezed with Zhang Changzong. He had a very clear and handsome face with a vulgar expression: "It's time to be filial, the matter of having a son should be put on the agenda, right?"
Zhang Changzong nodded with a smile, but his heart moved and he couldn't help but say a slander: "What if I have another daughter?"
Xue Chongyin's smile was stiff on his face, and his expression was hard to describe. If he hadn't considered not be able to beat him, he would really want to slap him. He endured it and said, "If you can't give birth, continue to give birth until you give birth to a son!"
Zhang Changzong was also silly: "You have the ability to let your sister hear you, and see if she will beat you to death!"
Xue Chongyin said coldly: "Mother will not let her go."
Well, after he said this, Zhang Changzong knew that Xue Chongxiu must have been bombarded by his mother-in-law. He threw a look in sympathy. Sure enough, his teacher Xue's face was stiff, and he was pitiful.
Xue Chongyin glanced at him and said, "I have conveyed my mother's meaning. I advise you to take it seriously, otherwise, it will not be me next time, but my mother will go into the battle myself!"
Born by his mother-in-law, this mother-in-law is still Princess Taiping...
Zhang Changzong made up his mind and was so successful that he trembled. He nodded quickly: "Work hard, work hard, and work hard!"
This sentence made Xue Chongyin fail to endure the martial arts skills, and he reached out and patted him on the shoulder hard, trying to take the lead, but he was afraid that his sister would get angry. The reality was cruel. For his sister, his brother was not as good as his brother-in-law's treasure.
After dealing with the birth of my brother-in-law who came on behalf of my mother-in-law, it was the end of the year. There were already many scholars coming nearby in the inn in the capital. The scholars who arrived early were busy running the papers, and Zhang Changzong and Xue Chongxiu both received some.
What is more interesting is that those who voted for Xue Chongxiu were mainly poetry and essays. Those who voted for Zhang Changzong not only included poetry and essays, but also essays, and each accounted for half, and some even both were written and submitted.
It is not that the poem is good enough to be praised for its literary talent, nor is it that it is written well in miscellaneous essays. People who are truly talented write the best parallel prose, which is the best parallel prose, which is truly testable. Those who can write parallel prose beautifully are recognized as the most literary person. For example, his master Shangguan Wan'er, who is a good student of parallel prose, and she is recognized as outstanding in the world. Unfortunately, Zhang Changzong's skills in this area are not as good as those of essays.
Perhaps because of his learning from Shangguan, some people also submitted parallel prose to Zhang Changzong. Zhang Changzong was speechless. He actually liked officials who could do practical things. He could not add a lot of points to his good articles. However, considering the current situation, when he encountered good articles, he was still willing to comment a few words. If he caught his eye, he would also like to see him. However, this kind of person has not appeared yet.
Maybe the expression of disgust on his face was too profound. Xue Chongxiu took the book he had in hand and looked at it, commenting with a smile: "This article is well written, why are you still disgusted?"
Zhang Changzong complained: "The person who was in charge of the ranks was selected by the Ministry of Personnel, and I am the Jinwu Guard. These people gave me a book. Do you know what the idea was to make?"
Xue Chongxiu looked at him curiously: "What's the idea?"
Zhang Changzong was very calm: "Three melons and two dates can make one rod, but one rod."
"puff"--
Xue Chongxiu laughed and yelled at him: "How can you say that to yourself? You are also a general with great talent and a very popular one!"
Zhang Changzong was definitely not praising him, unmoved, staring at a pair of dead fish eyes: "The four words "Caiming Zhuozhuo" come from your mouth, and I feel very insincere."
Xue Chongxiu was stunned for a moment, then reacted, wrapped his neck with a smile, and gently approached his face until his forehead was pressed against his forehead, and then he slowly said affectionately: "Didn't you just write those thirteen essays yourself?"
Zhang Changzong paused and nodded: "I wrote it."
Xue Chongxiu smiled slightly and exhaled like orchid: "So, you are not a talented man, who is a talented man?"
Well, it seems that this is true. Xue Chongxiu knew his background in education. As a modern person who is used to vernacular Chinese, he has made great efforts to study. The thirteen articles are just the achievements he has accumulated during his daily study.
Zhang Changzong was calm, but he was calm, and there was a question that needed to be mentioned, otherwise it would affect his wife's image. So Zhang Changzong said: "Thank you for your comfort and affirmation, your wife is so good! You are so good, I should remind your wife that if you are so close, your face will be deformed. It really affects your beauty. Why don't we separate a little distance?"
Xue Chongxiu: “…”
