First Minister of Ming Dynasty

In Lao Zhu's team, Zhang Ximeng belongs to the kind of person who can make a way out of a dilemma in the fog.

What is the end of the sky, what is the Yuan Dynasty, what is the Great Song Dynasty... Lao Tzu played the Chinese card directly, and went directly to pay homage to Zong Ze... Who was Zong Ze?

It was when the Jin people entered the bandits and the Tianqing in the Central Plains, a mighty spirit, went north to defend the enemy, with a decaying body, a lonely and brave, riding an ox cart, carrying an iron pot, collecting bandits, and defending the lonely city.

He even supported the establishment of a new master, protected the Han family, guarded Kaifeng, and sacrificed himself for the country. Even if he died, he would still cross the river three times!

Don't look at the Wanyan Gou that he supports a little bit, but even after thousands of years, there is no difference.

Li Gang was angry and defended Kaifeng to the death, because of the first greatness, Zong Ze succeeded it as the second greatness.

Only then did Yue Fei's Northern Expedition, Wen Tianxiang's tragic, and Diaoyucheng's steadfastness... It went down in one line, and the order was clear. Zhao and Song died, but China still survived.

The ambition to restore the country has never been slack. People with lofty ideals in the world are always looking forward to restoring the Central Plains.

With the rise of the red scarf, the Yuan court was frightened, paid tribute to the heroes, and tempered the hearts of the people. It is the right time!

Zhang Ximeng's greatness lies in the fact that Mongolia, like the Jin Kingdom, was invaded by foreign enemies, and the barbarians occupied the Central Plains and established a dynasty.

To pay homage to Zong Ze is to cut off the relationship with Yuan Ting, and no one can reverse right and wrong.

What's more embarrassing is perhaps the Han and Song regimes in Bozhou. They used the banner of restoring the Great Song Dynasty. Is the Great Song really worth restoring from the beginning?

Zong Ze, Yue Fei, so many people with lofty ideals, who are dedicated to restoring the Central Plains, forgot their lives, and fought bravely to the death. As a result, something like Wanyan Gou came out, destroying the pillar of the country by himself, kneeling down to admit his father, and humiliating him through the ages.

Restoring the Song Dynasty?

Restore your sister!

He threw out a punch and hit two people in the mouth at the same time, this idea is over!

Jia Lu, Zhu Sheng, Tao An, Li Xi, including Gong Boxui, and of course Liu Bowen, all of them gave two thumbs up, they were convinced! Completely served!

It doesn't work if you don't agree!

"Experience, this is a big article, and it must be done well. With my ability, I'm afraid it won't work. Only one person can write the article well." Liu Bowen's affectionate suggestion can make him admire it so much. Without a doubt, this is an amazing character!

"You mean Song Lian, right?" Zhang Ximeng said with a smile.

"That's right, it's this man!"

Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "Mr. Li has already started, don't worry, in a few days, you will be able to meet old friends and make sure you have a good time!"

Sure enough, a few days later, Song Lian arrived, but there was a little embarrassment. As soon as the two met, Song Lian grabbed Liu Bowen's collar and was furious!

"Liu Ji! Shameless!"

His scolding made Liu Ji's face flush.

"Brother Jing Lian, you, what do you mean? I recommend you to come out and help the Lord, isn't it a good thing?"

"You, you yourself are willing to be the second official and thief. Why bother me if you please? Liu Ji, you know it. I swore that I would never be an official in this life! Don't you know?"

Liu Bowen was also stunned, Song Lian did say this, but there was a reason for that... Generally, extraordinary people have a special background, or they are full of luck, or they are struck by thunder, or they can't die no matter how much tossing them. .

Song Lian has the last characteristic. He is a seven-month-old premature baby. He has been weak since he was a child. He also suffers from wind and dizziness. Sentenced to death.

But Song Lian didn't die. Not only did he not die, but he became a child prodigy, and became a famous inscription writer in a small town.

He survived because of good luck, and because his grandmother and mother took good care of him, so he survived. Song Lian, who passed his childhood smoothly, showed his extraordinary talent. He read and literate, and he never forgets it. He worshipped many famous teachers before and after, and studied the Five Classics. He became famous early on.

How famous is he?

Even the Yuan court knew about it, and the emperor ordered him to enter the Hanlin Academy. Jumping over the imperial examinations and entering the Hanlin directly, Song Lian is also a model for questioners.

But what happened next made Song Lian even more famous... He rejected Yuan Ting's solicitation, and the reason was extremely strong.

He wants to be filial to his mother!

A senior also used this excuse, and that was Li Mi who wrote the petition order. By the way, Li Mi did not stick to the end. After his grandmother died and the period of mourning expired, he still accepted the invitation of the Western Jin Dynasty and served as the magistrate of Wenxian County and the prefect of Hanzhong before and after he was dismissed from office and returned to his hometown.

So it's good to read some poems, don't get too involved in the drama, or you will be injured.

Song Lian didn't write a petition, but he didn't accept Yuan Ting's solicitation, but kept studying behind closed doors, writing books and teaching his disciples.

He also said that his body is weak, faint and incompetent, and he cannot serve as an official.

Since he had made an oath, he could not be an official in the Yuan court, let alone an official in the Red Turbans... But he was betrayed by his friends, and Li Shanchang used some "small tricks" to get him to Zhu Jiajun.

Can Song Lian not be angry?

He wanted to slaughter Liu Bowen, "I have never been an official, I have a clear conscience, and I don't want to be criticized. I just want to study behind closed doors, stay safe at home, and be a savage in the mountains! Why bother letting me down? In this circle of right and wrong? Liu Ji! You first served Yuan, and then served the Red Turban. Don't forget, not long ago you were leading the Xiang Yong to suppress the red thieves. You have never been soft-handed in killing people! Lord, is Ning Wu worthy? I think most of you won't be able to live in peace!"

After being scolded by Song Lian so badly, Liu Bowen actually laughed, and laughed so hard that Song Lian couldn't understand it.

"Liu Ji, are you crazy?"

Liu Ji managed to stop his smile, "Brother Jing Lian, if you said that some time ago, it would have made me feel ashamed and wished to die. But today, I have figured it out and realized it, but Brother Jing Lian, you are still confused and don’t know where the righteousness lies! The true meaning of this life!”

Song Lian was stunned, "Liu Bowen, don't talk nonsense, do you also believe in some nonsense about the birth of King Ming and the birth of Maitreya? Could it be that the son who was born with a jade in his mouth made you see the destiny? It's just a woman's trick, I won't believe it!"

Liu Ji couldn't help laughing, "Brother Jing Lian, the heart of the sky is the heart of the people, and the heart of the people is the land. The Son of Heaven administers government according to the sky, and his ambition is to equalize the fields. What do you think about this?"

"This..." Song Lian was stunned, the people's heart is the land, the emperor's governance is in the sky... Since ancient times, I am afraid that he has not explained the destiny so rudely.

At first glance, it is too much to reduce, and there is no deep meaning at all.

But Song Lian, as everyone, doesn't understand the truth of simplifying complexity.

A person can write an article in a splendid manner, and the literary style is amazing, but after careful deliberation, there is no great deep meaning. What's more, it is even more difficult to rudely include the will of the heavens, the son of the emperor and the common people. Even a great Confucian may not be able to say it.

"Brother Bowen, I didn't expect that your knowledge is not small!"

Liu Bowen shook his head, "I don't have the ability. This is what my boss said. He experienced what Duke Zhang said."

Song Lian was even more surprised, "If it's what he said, I would like to ask him for a lesson. I don't know if Duke Zhang can give me a meeting?"

Liu Bowen smiled, "Brother Jing Lian, Zhang Shi can meet you, but you have to work hard to help write an article..."

"What article?"

"A great article that has been in existence since Pangu opened the sky, established business in China, and has continued to this day! A heroic article that can tell the world in front of Zongze's tomb, and a masterpiece that can be used to expel the barbarians and restore China!" Liu Bowen said movingly. : "Brother Jing Lian, what you said about me is right! But your situation is too small. Now we are not changing a master, but creating an unprecedented prosperity. We also need to comfort our ancestors and help the people... even if thousands of people Years later, the things we do will still shine through the ages. Just like Zong Ze, even if the dynasty changes and mentions him, we must give him a thumbs up!"

Song Lian was surprised for a while, and then said, "Brother Bowen, tell me carefully!"

With a smile on his face, Liu Bowen said what Zhang Ximeng talked about that day, and also said what he said about paying homage to Zongze, rectifying his name, and affirming justice.

After talking for more than two hours, Song Lian just listened patiently at first, but later he even discussed with Liu Bowen.

"Happy, really happy!" Song Lian sighed: "Chao Wendao, Xi can die. Until now, I know that Song Lian is really a man of ordinary people. Duke Zhang, being able to listen to his teachings must be like drinking a sweet spring and enjoying fine wine!"

Liu Bowen smiled, "Brother Jing Lian, it's not easy, you just stay, like me, to help Duke Zhang sort out the text, and if you encounter something, just ask him for advice, wouldn't you be happy!"

Song Lian couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Bowen, can we go to see you today?"

Liu Bowen looked at it, the sky was close to dusk, and he might be able to have dinner if he went there, so he smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go together!"

The two of them didn't dare to bring any heavy gifts, so they bought a few gifts and went to Zhang Ximeng's mansion.

It is said that it is a mansion, but it is just a small courtyard with a second entrance. It is said that there used to be merchants who lived there, but later because of the war, people ran away.

Zhang Ximeng didn't stay for a few days. He investigated everywhere a while ago, and then followed Old Zhu Nanzheng, who just returned to Jinling to his own mansion.

Before Zhang Ximeng could clean up, he found a gold ingot in the study.

Is this someone giving you a gift?

It's just a piece of gold, not to mention whether I accept it or not~www.readwn.com~ I'm too despised for this amount of money?

When Zhang Ximeng was puzzled, he suddenly found that there was a note on the table, with something on it: "People in the world, people from outside the world, once stole hundreds of Yuan court officials, and recently stole it from Fang Guozhen's hands. There is a golden Buddha and dozens of gold ingots in the melting city. I think there are officials in the world that cannot be stolen, and there is no place that cannot be entered. Not long ago, I made a bet with people and sneaked into the palace. However, there is no gold, silver, and valuables in your palace. ... Mr. is honest and makes people fall into the ground. The Zhu family's military reputation is far and wide, as expected. If you offend, please ask the adult Haihan to leave a gold coin, repair the doors and windows, and talk to atone for the crime, and also ask Mr. Haihan. "

Zhang Ximeng was reading the note when Liu Bowen and Song Lian came, and the two also saw the gold ingots on the table. I still don't understand what's going on... Zhang Ximeng sighed and handed the note to Liu Bowen.

Liu Bowen looked at it and looked at it with a strange expression, so he shoved it to Song Lian.

Song Lian took it over. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder Mr. has the ambition to restore China and expel the captives... If you are clean and honest, you will really fall into the ground!"

Zhang Ximeng touched his head, he turned out to be an example of an honest official?

Don't get me wrong, I just don't live at home, and my salary has been falsely claimed by that **** Zhu Ying, I haven't asked him to settle the account yet!

It's just that this matter was spread out, and people were shocked. As Zhu Yuanzhang's confidant, Zhang Ximeng was in charge of power, and what was even worse was that he was also in charge of the grain bank, and his subordinates alone had several million shi of grain.

Such a person, even the robbers can't find anything in the family, and they have left a bar of gold!

It seems absurd, but I have to sigh, I really deserve to be Master Renyi!
