On the third day of the second month of the fourth year of Chongning in the fourth year of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, at the fourth hour of Xu, the large house of the Zhang family ancestral hall in Chenggang Village.

Zhang Shangying sat upright with a big chair, and was still counting the various pits he had experienced when he jumped in and climbed out. He skipped the small pit, mainly the big pit.

That time he submitted a memorial to ask the Shenzong to take back his power. When Shenzong saw Zhang Shangying's stubborn temper, he did not have the same knowledge as him.

He didn't ask him to scold him, but just put his memorial aside and refused to deal with it.

This is a very obvious hint, and is a serious warning to him.

The emperor doesn’t want to pay attention to you anymore. He thinks you are bored and causes trouble for others. Why are you still trying to do anything about it?

You are so stubborn and stubborn, you have been talking in a terrifying manner for a long time. I ignore you. Are you still embarrassed to continue chatting?

Unfortunately, Zhang Shangying didn't know why she was just unaware of it at this time.

He did not regret that he was not doing well and was not upright. He quickly turned to justice. If he continued, he would be in great trouble.

His wrong tendon has not been corrected and is still twisted. He should go to a doctor who can stretch the tendons.

But he didn't, but continued to stick his neck to face the Shenzong, just changing his tricks a little.

Zhang Shangying's next approach was to list the charges that Liu Fengshi had obtained when he was not sure of his crime of sheltering. He said that he had been imprisoned for the crime of sheltering.

There are also a bunch of other crimes that have been accumulated together, and they are just trivial matters together.

There was nothing big at first, but after adding codes to alarmist words, it sounded like a huge sin.

It is because of his remarks that the contents also involve the central minister Wen Yanbo and other senior officials.

Wen Yanbo and others all had the pride of literati, so how could they be attacked like a swordsman like him? In anger, they handed over the seal letter and resigned to the official and asked to leave.

The reason for this was that Zhang Shangying's words must be extremely unpleasant, and those ministers could not tolerate him.

They would not fight against Zhang Shangying themselves, but they found Yingzong to ask for an explanation.

Yingzong also had a headache. Neither side had any major problems, but he was stubborn one by one and couldn't stop and he didn't even have the intention to work.

In this way, the turmoil of the court was also turbulent, and Shenzong also felt that

If he can tolerate it, he can't bear it anymore. If he tolerate it, the temple will become a vegetable market.

In a rage, Emperor Yingzong removed Zhang Shangying from his position as censor and drove him to Jingnan to inspect the taxes there. You can argue with those illegal merchants.

Yingzong chose one of the two people, whether Zhang Shangying or Wen Yanbo, and soon had an answer.

The result is that Zhang Shangying must be in trouble unless you admit your mistake and ask Wen Yanbo and others to let you go.

This time, what Zhang Shangying fell into was a huge deep pit and rushed from the central temple to a remote place.

He almost failed to get through once and for all. He could recover from his strength, so he was lucky.

But that feeling reached his limit, and it still made him feel unbearable pain until now.

In addition to the level gap from the center to the local area, the time was also very long, and he was detained there for a full ten years.

But he can't blame others for this pitfall. Yingzong didn't fail to give him a chance. He worked hard to dig the pit and finally buried himself.

It is probably the best model in the world who digs a hole and burys himself.

And this time was his prime and young and promising age, and he wanted to go to the nine days to catch the moon and go to the five oceans to catch turtles.

But he suffered such setbacks and wasted great time.

The Shenzong completely knocked him down. You are such a great idea. No one listened to you. What tricks do you have to play?

This was purely because he messed up himself and wasted great opportunities. No wonder others.

Two big pits were thrown into him one after another, making him feel extremely distressed.

After this, no matter how he showed himself, there was no change within ten years.

At this time, he should accept this thorough lesson. No matter how capable a person is, he will achieve nothing by relying on himself.

Therefore, great ability is not a complete condition, but of course it is a necessary condition. In addition to your own ability, you also need the right time, place and people.

The most indispensable thing is the emperor's appreciation.

He was fine. Not only did he offend the ministers, but even the emperor didn't like him. It was conceivable how annoying he should be.

It is estimated that starting from the Shenzong, ministers including Wen Yanbo and others have firmly nailed him to the blacklist.

Maybe there is another reminder, for example, if this person is not available, it is a trouble pack.

It is probably the first lesson for newcomers to enter the center. If you want to be clear, don’t touch Zhang Shangying.

It was not until the end of ten years that Zhang Shangying was re-activated. This time his position was to proofread the Deguan Pavilion and to proofread the punishment room.

Of course, this position is much higher than that of the tax supervisor, but it is far inferior to the supervisory censor, and it is just the same level as the Lifang of the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat.

It was the official position he received for the first time after the interview, the one before the censor.

In this way, Zhang Shangying's ten years have been in vain.

Not only did he do it in vain, he also recited a big black dot. This black dot is all his annoying problem.

There are only a hundred and eighty people who often appear in the center, and soon everyone will know it.

What's more, there is a rule that bad things are spreading thousands of miles apart, so people from afar also know his path.

This pit taught him a great lesson. Logically speaking, he should remember the lesson deeply and ensure that he will never jump into the pit again.

Unfortunately, he forgot to hurt after healed his scars. He had just calmed down, but the same thing resurfaced and the same trick replayed.

Shortly after the Jianzheng Zhengxian Fang took office, he caused another incident of fraud.

He remembered that there was a thing in the past period when Zhang Shangying recommended a talented person and said that he could be used, and that person was called Shu Tan.

This time Zhang Shangying was activated, and probably felt that the opportunity had come. From then on, everything would go smoothly, and life would be successful.

So he sorted out some records of his own grudges and revenge, which recorded who had grudges against him and who had grudges against him in order to retaliate against him.

In order to do this, he checked the official position so that he could know what he wanted, and happened to see Shu Tan being in charge of the Censorate.

It is estimated that Zhang Shangying did not do good deeds many times, so many years later he still remembers this person who has given him kindness.

So he came to the door, thinking that based on his previous recommendation, he could ask Shu Tan to be compatible with his request.

In fact, Zhang Shangying's request this time was not for himself, but for his son-in-law Wang Wei.

He did not directly ask for any care, but just showed him the work Wang Wei was engaged in. Of course, the meaning was clear, that was, he asked for care.

But Shu Tan was very upright and did not open a back door for his private life, so he turned this matter into a memorial and gave it to the emperor directly, allowing the emperor to decide.

In fact, many years have passed since this kind of thing. Although Zhang Shangying remembers clearly that he was recommended, the parties involved may have no impression.

Besides, Zhang Shangying's own official position cannot be kept. How can his recommendation play a big role? It probably has no decisive impact.

What's a pity is that Zhang Shangying still wants to repay him, and he is also self-responsible for stealing chickens without losing rice.

It also shows that Zhang Shangying did not do much benefit when he was proud.

So when people need to be grateful, they can't find a suitable candidate, so they even report him.

Perhaps Yingzong still has an impression of Zhang Shangying. This time, this guy is causing trouble again. Wouldn’t he be silent? He feels even more disgusted.

Without saying a word, he directly determined that his incident was a big mistake and was interfering with the justice of the Censorate. He was not polite and exiled him again.

This time he was sent to a place called Chigan to supervise the salt tax.

Chian is a small place, and salt-producing places are usually a deserted beach and rabbits do not shit.

From this we can see that it is obvious that Zhang Shangying's treatment is worse than that of a turtle.

This is at least his third big pit. Not far from the last pit. Before the water was dry, he jumped into another big pit.

After finally surviving the dynasty of the Emperor Shenzong and ushering in the ruling of Zhezong, Zhang Shangying's opportunity came again.

In the early days of Zhezong, Zhang Shangying was appointed as the Promoter of Kaifeng Prefecture, which was probably equivalent to the president of the intermediary court in later generations. He had some power, but not much.

For Zhang Shangying, who is striving to achieve great success in the top, that small official position is far from satisfying his appetite.

But he didn't think about what the reason was that he had a great chance and climbed to a higher position.

Isn’t it because he is eager to achieve success and is panicked and annoyed by everyone, and cats and dogs don’t like it?

After entering so many deep pits, I still don’t know if I’m more careful and safer, and I still have to continue jumping into the pits?

He was really a sportsman at the level of a healthy pit jumper.

It is important to know that there are countless pits, you can never jump them all, and it is useless to go ahead and continue.

He had just served as the Promoter, and before he was familiar with the environment, he began to write letters to the governor countless times, and express his words.

These different forms of communication are all made, and the requirements are one thing: if he wants to be a high-ranking official, he must take great responsibility for him, and he must be promoted quickly.

Note that the governance here refers to the different governing officials of all central departments, and there is no specific department.

I guess Zhang Shangying didn’t ask which yamen gate, but only asked the size of the official.

Anyone who is given a high-ranking official position will step in as long as he wants to have himself in that place.

It is conceivable that no one likes his urgent approach to pursue people, and it is probably counterproductive.

No one likes that kind of frigid temper. Being steady is the key, especially when his age is there.

Then in the early days of Zhezong's rule, Zhang Shangying had another trouble.

At that time, due to various reasons, the temple changed some inconvenient aspects of the new law, and some changes were made to the people.

When Zhang Shangying saw it, she felt that it was time for him to show off her skills, so she took the opportunity to make a statement again and make a big statement.

He said: "'I have not changed my father's way for three years, so I can be called filial piety." Now that the land of the former emperor's tomb has not yet dried, I will discuss the change. Can I be filial?"

This is to borrow Confucius' Analects of Confucius and use him as a whip to hit people, which means that you are too impatient to violate filial piety.

This is to capture all the monarchs and ministers who could make decisions at that time, saying that they were all unfilial. This crime is too great.

In the Song Dynasty, unfilial piety was a serious crime. The law of punishing unfilial piety in the prosperous Tang Dynasty was very strict, and those who violated it will be punished.

In other words, if Zhang Shangying's accusation about the "father's way" was determined to be a crime of unfilial piety, then everyone will be punished, including the emperor.
