Chapter 157

Zhao Qianyuan was amused by Zhang Zhou's words.

"No wonder the queen appreciates you so much! It's true that she can talk and talk!"

"Your Majesty, you won't misunderstand me that I'm a flattering villain! In fact, I'm still doing my best!"

"Hehe, I know well. I'm satisfied with the information you sent back from the grassland and the disposal in Wuxia mountain. I know you're a man who works hard! You're still hurt. Straighten up!"

"Thank you, your majesty!"

Zhao Qianyuan took Zhang Zhou to the back garden. This kind of favor can't be obtained without trusting important officials!

"Zhang Zhou, you are still young. You can't understand some things. They say that the world is an emperor, but I can't help myself. Some people will say that I don't understand human sophistication, I'm too cold-blooded and ruthless, and even say things like crossing rivers and bridges and killing donkeys! But what I do is from the perspective of how to make the Empire stronger. I have to plan step by step and repeat my actions step by step Weigh! "

Of course, these Zhang Zhou understand. After all, they are people for two generations, and their breadth of experience is not comparable to that of ordinary people. But I dare not show calm.

"Your Majesty, you've worked too hard! It's a blessing for the whole world to have your majesty at the helm of Datang!"

Zhao Qianyuan smiled and did not stop Zhang Zhou's worship, because he felt that he could fully afford the "hard work".

"Don't be so formal. I haven't talked to anyone like this for a long time. It's better to be natural!"

Zhang Zhou took orders, but he was still cautious in his words and deeds. Zhao Qianyuan said faintly. Zhang Zhou listened silently. There was no secret. It was more like Zhao Qianyuan venting some negative emotions.

"... yuan Shang is gone. I'm like a broken arm. I don't want to be grateful, but now that Yuan Shang is gone and there is no suitable person to be the leader, those people have become a group of useless people who only know righteous indignation and noise!"

Zhao Qianyuan's words are not excessive. Su banxing has analyzed that none of these people will attract, but will be jointly suppressed, and it is impossible to be promoted and reused. If there are no constraints and guidelines, they can only become some people who complain and hate the injustice of God. In addition to hearing their complaints, they can hardly do anything.

"I'm not willing to lose talent, but in the overall situation, the officials you say have done nothing are more useful!"

Zhang Zhou felt it was time to weigh his lines again, summoned up his courage, knelt down in front of Zhao Qianyuan and said, "Your Majesty, I have some ideas..."

"Oh, what do you think?"

"I think these people are useless, but they may not be good for nothing! If they are used properly, they may be able to make some contributions to the country!"

"What's your idea? Tell me!"

"Your Majesty, I think these people have been trained by Yuan Shang after all, and they must have some ability. It would be a pity if they were completely abandoned! Moreover, fundamentally speaking, these people are helpless and can obey your majesty, but once they are broken up, they can't do anything, so I think..."

"Do you want to recruit these people for your own use?"

"I dare not recruit for my own use, but I have a plan. These people can come in handy!"

"What plan?"

"Your Majesty also knows that I'm young, reckless and easy to follow, so I'm not suitable to be an official in the Imperial Hall! Your majesty really protects and cares for me by letting me take care of myself in dachuyun temple! But I always feel that I'm ashamed of your favor by doing nothing, so I think I can do something to repay your Majesty's maintenance! But my ability is limited, and I have some ideas, but I do It's just that these people are in the way and can't be used. It's better for them to help me! "

"Oh, what event needs so many people to help? Do you want to start a government?"

Kaifu, that's the right of an adult king! A marquis wants to open his house, which is wishful thinking!

"Your Majesty misunderstood. How dare you? First allow me to give something to your majesty!"

Zhang Zhou always has some unique ideas, which makes Zhao Qianyuan curious!

"Show it up! See what you have come up with!"

Zhang Zhou naturally put his hand into his arms. He was used to being around Zhao Qiying and the queen and didn't feel wrong. However, when he reached into his arms, the killing opportunity appeared. He almost subconsciously had to respond. He immediately suppressed his thoughts, stopped his hands in his arms and didn't dare to make any superfluous actions. He slowly raised his head in fear and looked at Zhao Qianyuan, indicating that he had no other ideas.

Seeing Zhang Zhou's nervous appearance, Zhao Qianyuan smiled and waved. A man who almost stuck to Zhang Zhou's back quietly retreated. Zhang Zhou didn't dare to look back at the man's characteristics, but felt that the man came out of the entourage. Among the entourage, there were only palace maids and eunuchs.

Zhang Zhou felt uneasy. The killing machine that had just come in a flash was extremely powerful. Never lose the old scholar, even higher than the front line. There are three words in my mind: Dragon protection army!

Zhao Qianyuan saw the cold sweat on Zhang Zhou's forehead and said with a smile, "you can't do anything in front of the king! Pay attention next time! Take out your things!"

Zhang Zhou swallowed his saliva, slowly took out a piece of paper folded into many layers from his arms, and then presented it with both hands. Zhao Qianyuan took it personally and found that the paper should be large. It seemed to be a picture, so he asked Hong Xi and a eunuch to open the paper. Zhao Qianyuan was stunned after only one look.

"Where did this come from!" Zhao Qianyuan's voice was a little harsh!

"This is the topographic map of Hezhou drawn by Weichen in more than a year!"

Zhao Qianyuan did not speak any more, but carefully studied every detail. Although he could not compare with his previous life, the mountains, rivers, villages and paths were clear, not only clear, but also the elevation, property characteristics, population and residents, even the ponds and woods.

Suddenly Zhao Qianyuan said angrily, "you fool, such a baby, you should be folded like this! Hateful!"

He ordered someone to put the map away and then raised his leg. It was estimated that he wanted to kick Zhang Zhou, but he resisted his injury.

"Follow me back to the imperial study! Hum! Fool!"

Zhang Zhou had seen Zhao Qianyuan's preference for maps. He was anxious to save people today and really ignored it. As a result, Zhao Qianyuan was very angry.

Zhao Qianyuan's anger did not make Hong Xi proud because he guessed right, but a little jealous of Zhang Zhou. Because of this scolding, I don't know how many people will envy the toothache.

"Chen's caravan suffered a lot from the inaccuracy of the map, so it took a lot of effort to do this. A few days ago, he finally completed the Hezhou part and just sent it to Kyoto. Chen intended to frame it well and dedicate it to his majesty. As a result, when he met this matter, he..."

Zhao Qianyuan spread the map on the book case, studied it again and again, listened to his explanation, but there was no understanding. He still scolded: "this map is a national treasure, you know? Look, this corner is rolled! You're really angry! Get up, come here! Stop, just stand there, don't dirty my map, tell me what it is?"

Zhang Zhou could only helplessly tilt his feet, stretch his neck and explain the signs on the map one by one. Zhao Qianyuan didn't see Zhang Zhou's bitterness, but his face was more and more satisfied. Finally, his attitude eased down.

"Very good, very good! If you don't know how to cherish it, I really want to reward you!"

Zhang zhoulian said he didn't dare, and then whispered, "Your Majesty, this map, Weichen, used a lot of human and material resources, consumed a lot of resources, and took more than a year to succeed! And it was only limited to Hezhou. Because it needs the strong support of the government!"

Zhao Qianyuan nodded and approved of his statement. Zhang Zhou added, "if your majesty needs a complete map of the Tang Dynasty, you need a group of officials who can do things in a down-to-earth manner!"

Zhao Qianyuan immediately understood what he meant, looked at the map and thought for a while and said, "that's why you want to attract those people?"

"These people have served in various Yamen and have some knowledge of all walks of life. It's most appropriate for them to preside over this task! After all, they are sent by the court, and they don't dare to be embarrassed when they go to places. In addition, they don't want to annoy your majesty by staying in Kyoto! This is a good thing with one stroke, so I beg your Majesty's permission!"

Zhao Qianyuan thought for a moment and said, "I'll reward you for your contribution to the map. I won't punish them. What's the specific arrangement? Go back to your house and wait for the order!"

What Su banxing saw in Hezhou is just a sketch! When he saw Zhang Zhou take out the real map of Hezhou, he was very excited. I have to take a higher look at Zhang Zhou and have more understanding of the details of Kyushu business.

In fact, Kyushu commerce has completed half of the topographic mapping of the six northern states. It was originally reserved for Zhao Qianyuan's birthday. In order to save these people, Zhang Zhou had to take it out in advance. Zhang Zhou secretly felt distressed and received a great reward!

Don't think drawing a map is a painstaking task without great credit! In history, it is absolutely first-class credit to offer a detailed map to the emperor. It will even be regarded by the emperor as a great political achievement during his reign.

In the Tang Dynasty, which yamen most frightened those high-ranking officials, it should be the house of internal affairs. Although the house of the interior did not have the power of the Regent, it was an institution dedicated to serving the emperor. Yudan room was one of its subordinate departments.

Subordinates also have some departments such as Yubao supervisor, bodyguard office and qintian supervisor! Among them, Qin Tianjian is specially responsible for astronomy, geography and other things. In addition to recording the changes of astrology, explaining the signs of abnormal phenomena and collecting geographical maps, there are no cumbersome affairs, there are not many personnel, and the eunuchs in charge of affairs are basically eunuchs in the palace.

Zhang Zhou's new appointment is the imperial heavenly warden, Si Cheng. His own position is "deputy director of the national geographic survey office". It seems that there is no eye-catching place. Zhang Zhou is not cheap in grade. It's better to appease the general, just a four grade. But the practical significance is absolutely not small. If compared with the history of previous lives, the status is almost the same as that of the deputy editor of the "Si Ku Quan Shu"! Although there is a vice word, it is the absolute person in charge of affairs. The real "supervisors" of the Yamen of the interior government are the big eunuchs in the palace. It is impossible to compete with officials for the credit of the court. If Zhao Qianyuan had not acted arbitrarily on this matter, it is estimated that those famous old ministers would not have let Zhang Zhou get this position.

The courtyard of Hou's residence was overcrowded, but there were not many people standing, but lying all over the courtyard. These guys also have backbone. They didn't leave by themselves yesterday. As a result, they were caught in prison by the forbidden army. Today, they were all carried into the Marquis house.

Zhang Zhou looked at these people on the stretcher and didn't have a good face. Yuan Xi stood behind him, wrapped in plain clothes. During his previous visits, he didn't want to attract people's attention. He had to wear casual clothes. Today, Zhang Zhou rightly invited him to Hou's house and asked Yuan Xi to wear heavy filial piety.

"Must have known what the court did to you?"

No one spoke. When he was in prison, the edict was clearly read: the official position and the affiliation of the Yamen remained unchanged, but they were all released and sent by the imperial supervisor!

"Are there any of you who don't want to take this job? I always come and go freely here and don't like forcing others!"

Chen Liang raised his head and said, "Lord Hou, I don't understand!"

"Do you understand? I don't care and don't want to answer your question! I just want to know whether you want to stay or leave!"

Chen Liang, who was young and vigorous, did not shrink back, but shouted with a kind of release of depression: "Lord Hou, we are grateful that you saved us, but I Chen Liang can't accept the result. Our teacher didn't do anything wrong! We didn't do anything wrong! And our senior brother, why..."

"Somebody, throw Chen Liang out!" Zhang Zhou didn't give him a chance to speak at all. Shierlang had gone over, grabbed Chen Liang, covered his mouth and dragged him out directly.

"Who else can't understand? Don't talk nonsense with me and climb out by yourself!"

Many people were indignant but did not act rashly. Xiao Ziyi struggled to get up, endured a sharp pain in his knees and knelt in front of Zhang Zhou.

"Lord Hou, Chen Liang is right. We won't forget your kindness, but we can't accept such a result..."

"Master yuan!" Zhang Zhou interrupted Xiao Ziyi and shouted Yuan Xi directly. When Yuan Xi heard Zhang Zhou calling himself, he nodded, went back to the house and took out a spirit card.

Xiao Ziyi could see clearly that it was the spiritual position of the teacher yuan Shang. He couldn't help but cry. He choked and shouted "teacher", and then burst into tears. All those people could not bear the pain, from lying down to kneeling and crying.

Zhang Zhou went to Yuan Xi, looked at the following people and shouted, "shut up! What are you crying for? What are you qualified to cry? Xiao Ziyi, you answer me loudly. Can you live up to the teacher's instructions?"

Xiao Ziyi bit his lips, endured tears and shook his head!

"I want you to answer me loudly!"

"Yes, I'm sorry! Teacher, students are sorry for you!"

Xiao Ziyi buried his head on the ground and twitched his shoulders.

"You bastards, your teacher was still thinking of you before he died, but what about you? You forgot all your teacher's kindness in just a few days? Do you want him to live in heaven? Do you want your teacher to die in peace!"

Yuan Xi wanted to talk and was stopped by Zhang Zhou. He continued to reprimand: "Yuan Zai worked hard to cultivate you. Why? He didn't think you could be made? But what happened? You people can't stand any storms! You can't stand any grievances! You're nothing but crying like a woman!"

Xiao Ziyi raised his head, tears streaming down his face and said, "Lord hou..."

"Shut up! Why? Can't you stand it? Think I wronged you? What do you think is not wronging you? Will you be satisfied only by giving you a main hall position? Or will you be the prime minister step by step?"
