Chapter 790 Small talk (1)

The next day, Gongsun sent someone to inform Zhang Yue that he had vacated a workshop in the West Weaving Room and transferred dozens of skilled craftsmen from the East Weaving Room to stand by.

But Zhang Yue did not rush to go to Xizhishi to meet with Gongsun Yi, but went to the Taipu Yamen, handed over a letter of worship, and asked to meet Shangguan Jie.

When Shangguan Jie heard that it was Zhang Yue's visit, he immediately threw down all the affairs in his hands and quickly stepped out to greet him.

no way!

The relationship between him and Zhang Yue is now so close that he is almost wearing a pair of pants.

At least, Shangguan Jie himself thought so.

Not to mention the other person, the strategy of "cleaning away the thief ministers, fathers and sons" that Zhang Yue gave him has now been a great success.

Holding high the banner of "cleaning the poison of traitors and fathers and sons", Shangguan Jie has launched more than a dozen purge movements since he took office.

With his back to the emperor's support, the entire Taifu was shuffled by him.

In the 36th Yuan of Taipu, the chief officials of each Cao's office were taken down by him and sent to the Tingwei Yamen for a trip.

Then, he vigorously promoted those talents who were buried under the rule of Gongsun He and his son.

Because these people were all promoted by him, loyalty, obedience and action are all over the top.

The entire Taipu immediately changed his appearance and greatly improved his work efficiency.

It also made his name even more popular. Now, people talk about him Shangguan Jie.

The symbol is no longer a flatterer, but a capable minister!

This alone is enough to make Shangguan Jie owe Shang a great favor!

Not to mention, Shangguan Jie's legitimate son Shangguan An and several concubines are both brainless fans of Zhang Yue.

Tout and fool at home every day.

Over time, even Shangguan Jie believed that Zhang Zizhong would definitely be an important official of the country and a figure as good as Wei Huo.

Shangguan Jie naturally knew how to treat such a person.

Don’t even read the book, just follow Gongsun He’s actions.

Gongsun He and Gongsun Ao are both recognized as mean generals and incompetent commanders.

However, he clasped Wei Qing's thighs tightly and was all named Marquis.

Therefore, when Shangguan Jie saw Zhang Yue, he saw the walking marquis vending machine, and his whole face was filled with a smile: "Why did the Shizhong have time to come to the Taipu Yamen to find Brother Yu?"

"But there is something to ask for!" Zhang Yue also smiled and replied, "I still need the full help from the servant!"

"It's easy to say! It's easy to say!" Shangguan Jie invited Zhang Yue into the government office and brought it to an elegant room specially used for meeting guests. Then he asked, "I don't know what the minister has to do?"

"I want to ask my brother to help me find some cashmere from the Taifu Yamen..." Zhang Yue smiled, afraid that Shangguan Jie would not understand, so he explained: "It is the sheep that grows like willow catkins in winter..."

Shangguan Jie listened, although he was not sure what Zhang Yue wanted specifically?

But he immediately ordered to his left and right: "Send someone to Shanglin Stable in Shanglinyuan to get the cashmere for the attendant..."

"Well, let's take a few dozen stones first..."

Zhang Yue hurriedly said, "But you can't have so many... It's enough to get four or five pounds!"

How many stone cashmere? I’m afraid it’s time to collect so much of the wool from tens of thousands of goats!

Anyway, in later generations, Zhang Yue saved up a year of private money and finally bought himself a piece of cashmere.

It seems that only 200 grams of cashmere...

After thinking about it, Zhang Yue added: "I asked someone to use the comb of a woman to comb her hair to remove the goat's hair, and the fine velvet that was combed off was cashmere!"

"Why don't you go quickly!" Shangguan Jie raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Remember to follow the method of the servant to sparse the cashmere!"

"No!" Someone immediately took the order and left.

"Young children are stupid, but they call me a joke!" Shangguan Jie looked at the man and apologized to Zhang Yue.

"Brother, the rule is strict, I am respectful!" Zhang Yue also made a fuss and started talking with Shangguan Jie: "Brother, I heard that my brother was happy about his granddaughter recently? I wonder if it is true?"

Shangguan Jie listened and was suspicious. His eldest son Shangguan An gave birth to a granddaughter for him a few days ago. Few outsiders knew about this except for his own family.

After all, it is just a granddaughter, even if it is a legitimate granddaughter, in his eyes, it is just that.

Most people regard it as a loss of money. Nowadays, the Han Dynasty is married, but not only the man wants to give a betrothal gift, but the woman also needs to prepare a sumptuous dowry.

When a commoner gets married, perhaps the betrothal gifts and dowry are equal.

However, the dowry of high-level nobles far exceeds that of betrothal gifts, even reaching dozens of times the gap.

It is probably because female members of contemporary families are not like feudal dynasties in later generations, have no human rights, and have no right to inherit property.

Women in the Han Dynasty family enjoy the right to inherit their parents' property.

Therefore, in order to avoid making jokes between brothers and sisters in the future, when marrying a daughter, they will definitely send the property that she should inherit as a dowry to the man.

Therefore, Hanlu protects and supports the personal property of the female owner.

Even if the two parties are separated, the female owner has the right to take away her dowry.

This is why the economic foundation determines the status of the family because of the strong independence of female masters in the Han Dynasty!

But it is precisely because of this that Han nobles generally dislike having daughters.

There are countless cases of baby girls, especially direct-born babies, being drowned.

Shangguan Jie picked up the wine bottle, took a sip, and smiled and said, "My brother is really well-informed..."

But in my heart, who was talking too much outside?

If it is a domestic slave, such a person will definitely not be kept!

Zhang Yue laughed and said, "I also heard from people's discussions... There is basically nothing to hide in Chang'an City..."

Shangguan Jie choked immediately.

The Bagua Party in Chang'an City is famous for its well-informed and powerful powers.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that contemporary aristocrats generally do not talk about the words.

Actually, it's still fine now.

When Emperor Taizong and the late emperor, many people even discussed the rebellion in public.

When Wu'an Hou Tian Fen went down to meet Huainan King Liu An, he said: There is no prince, the king is the most virtuous, the grandson of the great master, the palace carriage, who will be the king?

Then, the next day, Chang'an knew about it.

Why?

Because the two of them said at the gate of Weiyang Palace...

It is also because of this incident that the nobles in Chang'an City now know a little about the secrets and the partition walls.

This is like the later generations of cannon king accidentally caught a handle on a scheming bitch. Since then, all Cao fans will pay attention.

At least you won't make that kind of low-level mistake again.

But Zhang Yue was not concerned about these things.

But...

He guessed that if nothing unexpected happened, the newly born daughter of Shangguan Jie would be the Shangguan Empress who was cheated by his father, grandfather and grandfather in history.

The second Empress Zhang in the Han court.

When I was reading history in the past, Zhang Yue felt quite regretful for Zhang Yan and her.

Now I don't want to witness her birth.

Fortunately, history has changed, and her life may be different from now on.

In order to commemorate this incident, Zhang Yue prepared a gift.

He took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Shangguan Jie, saying, "In the past, I have been taken care of by my brother. Now I heard that my brother likes to add a beloved grandson. I am just a little polite. I hope my brother will accept it with a smile!"
