Chapter 1101 Palace Banquet

Law, the officials who had been prepared for it did not change their expressions, but they still couldn't help but raise their minds. I wonder if Zhao Hanzhang would only change the inheritance law and the female household system as she mentioned, or would other laws be involved?

Because they were so concerned about this matter, many officials did not listen carefully to the little emperor's speech.

The little emperor, who was struggling to recite the second half of the congratulatory form, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that everyone bowed their heads respectfully and seemed not to notice him.

He didn't want to attract attention at all.

Ji Yuan raised his head and glanced upward quickly, lowering his eyes to cover the emotions in his eyes. The little emperor was less alert, which was a good thing, but even his diligence was compromised, which showed that he was not born to be an emperor.

Ming Yu was much more direct than Ji Yuan. He looked directly at the expressions of Xun Fan and others. That's all. Do you still want to return the country to the hands of this yellow-mouthed kid and continue to cause chaos in the world?

Xun Fan lowered his eyes, no one knew what he was thinking.

Xun Zu felt anxious for a moment, looked at each other with his colleagues, and decided to intensify the education of the little emperor. Even if it was just pretending, he must pretend to be smart and capable.

Otherwise, how could he win the hearts and minds of a court where most of the courtiers were Zhao Hanzhang's confidants?

If you want to win over people's hearts, you must first make them believe that it is possible to succeed by following him.

Then people must see his ability and intelligence...

Just as he was thinking this, Zhao Hanzhang suddenly mentioned his name. Xun Zu's heart skipped a beat. He thought Zhao Hanzhang had understood his plan, and then he heard Zhao Hanzhang laugh and ask, "What do you think, Master Xun?"

Xunzu couldn't help but look at his brother.

Xun Fan knew that he was distracted. He lowered his eyes and barely moved his mouth, but his voice came into Xun Zu's ears. "In the spring, Your Majesty will start to study "Shang Shu" and "Book of Rites". The general asked you to concentrate. Teach Your Majesty.”

Xun Zu immediately stood up and responded seriously.

Zhao Hanzhang, who was sitting on it, glanced at Xun Fan with a half-smiling look, encouraged Xun Fan a few words, and asked the little emperor to toast his two teachers.

The little emperor only knew at this time that he would have to add two more classes after the New Year. Although he was sad, he still forced a smile and raised his glass to toast Xunfan and Xunzu.

Xun Fan looked at the little emperor with a complicated face. Obviously, he still didn't understand what this meant.

After tonight, the little emperor will be eleven years old, and he is so insensitive.

Xun Zu didn't hear everything, so he happily raised his head and drank the wine.

Putting down his glass of wine, Zhao Hanzhang continued to make a speech. In fact, he was just bragging, exaggerating his family's achievements and achievements in the past year, and then giving everyone rewards.

All the hard-to-realize treasures in the palace had a place to go. As well as the rice cakes and other food from the imperial kitchen, Zhao Hanzhang rewarded the officials and asked them to take them back to share the rewards with their families. Everyone was honored and very happy. .

Eating has never been the theme of palace banquets, but political affairs. Therefore, in addition to rewards, Zhao Hanzhang will also make some official position adjustments, or reveal what he will do next. He said bluntly: "I wonder if you have suitable candidates in your hands. You can recommend it to me.”

Everyone responded respectfully.

Among them, the Xun group was very interested in the post of Yushi Dafu. From what I heard, in the future Yushi Tai would not only have the right to hear about things, but also participate in some special cases, and at the same time have the responsibility of inspecting local areas.

If he could be the chief of Yushitai, he could use this as a way to accumulate power for the emperor.

And now he has a convenience. In addition to being the prince's young master, he also serves as the censor. However, for the emperor's safety and education, he never traveled abroad on business, but did some work as the censor in Luoyang.

Xun Zu quietly said to Xun Fan: "Brother, recommend me."

Xunfan lowered his eyes and said nothing. Xunzu was a little anxious. When General Pingyi came forward to perform a sword dance, he leaned into Xunfan's ear and said: "Brother, if I can be the chief officer of Yushitai, then I can Liaise with local officials on behalf of His Majesty."

He felt that he and Xun Fan were of the same mind, so after explaining his reasons, he felt that he and Xun Fan had reached an agreement. Without waiting for Xun Fan to answer, he immediately stood up with the wine glass and went to find other colleagues, whispering his plan and letting them For a while, they agreed with Xun Fan, even if they could not grab the official position of Yushi Dafu, they would still grab the position of Yushi Zhongcheng.

The official he contacted looked hesitant to speak. Seeing that Xun Zu seemed to be serious, he whispered: "But the young master is no longer serving in Yushitai. You just personally promised to concentrate on teaching His Majesty."

Xun Zu was startled, "What?"

The official looked at Xun Zu inquiringly, "Young Master, don't you remember? The General just said that after the new year, His Majesty will add two courses, "Warring States Policy" and "Shang Shu", to learn how to be a king. In order to make the Young Master and the Grand Tutor Since I can concentrate on teaching His Majesty, the General will ask Fan Ying to replace you as the Supervising Censor."

Fan Ying was once someone close to Zhao Hanzhang, but when she was in Bingzhou, she gave her the responsibility of an angel and ordered her to patrol around. In fact, it was the duty of the censor. After returning, she mainly worked at the censor's station and worked with the Ministry of Punishment.

So everyone knew that she would join the Yushitai after the new year, but they didn't expect that she would squeeze out the Xun group. After all, the Yushitai was actually short of censors, so there was no need to squeeze.

But since Zhao Hanzhang said so, Team Xun had to hand over the work at hand to Fan Ying and then concentrate on teaching the emperor.

Xun Zu was shocked and looked at Xun Fan sharply.

He was not surprised that Zhao Hanzhang would transfer him away from the Yushitai. He wanted to fight for power, so Zhao Hanzhang would naturally want to guard against him. What shocked him was Xunfan's approach.

He was distracted at the time and didn't pay attention, so he agreed in a daze. What about Xun Fan?

He watched the whole process.

Thinking that Xun Fan rarely participated in their discussions during this period, Xun Zu felt a little uneasy, and he sat back silently.

After Pingyi performed the sword dance, Xie Shi came out with a smile and played the piano for everyone.

Zhao Hanzhang watched with gusto. There were no entertainers in the palace. Ji Yuan and others were worried that the palace banquet was too simple and would be disliked by hundreds of officials and noble families. Zhao Hanzhang said, "I have hundreds of officials, who are not good at civil and military skills, playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting." The Four Wonders? If you want to enjoy music and dance, why don't you all contribute to the country? Maybe you can gain two or three close friends at the palace banquet."

So, she asked the civil and military officials who were interested to present their talents at the palace banquet.

Celebrities in the Wei and Jin Dynasties still liked to express themselves. For them, expressing themselves and getting people's appreciation and praise was as normal as eating and drinking.

So there were still many people who signed up to participate. Pingyi danced with the sword, Xie Shi played the piano, Wang Huiniang played a piece of harp, Fan Ying and Zhao Yunxin danced together, and Cheng Da took off his shirt on the spot and came with another general. A wrestling match.

Even Ji Yuan and Ming Yu were coaxed to sing and dance on the spot.

Ji Yuan and Ming Yu looked at each other and were about to stand up with a smile when they saw Xun Zu stood up and walked to the main hall and bowed: "Tonight is so fun, why don't you, General, join in the fun and select the palace for your majesty?"
