Chapter 050 Wolf Heart and Tiger Gallop
Zhang Xun hurriedly left Zhang's Wubao and arrived straight to Pingcheng County day and night.
When Zhang Xun saw Zhang Liao, he patted Zhang Liao’s shoulders and laughed: “I haven’t seen each other for several months, my second brother has grown in size.”
Zhang Liao was extremely happy, and his brother hugged and slapped him.
After the heat, Zhang Liao hurriedly congratulated: "Congratulations to brother for having a noble son."
"Hahaha, you are also my uncle of Min'er. How can you not be happy?" Zhang Xun talked about his son, and his face was extremely strong.
张辽自然理解,兄嫂为了子嗣之事经常吵架,如今愿望得以实现,兄长对祖先终于有了交代不至于为了香火延续一事而优心,嫂子也对张氏先祖有了交代,不再遭受言语非议.
"My nephew has been named?" Zhang Liao asked quickly.
He had already known about Wu Qianniang's childbirth from letters, and did not know about the name. It seemed that the name had not been long and his brother did not send him a message.
"The single name is Min, and the nickname is Min'er."
Zhang Xun smiled and said, "The name Zhang Min was chosen by Guo Ze County Master himself. It is also a kind of favor for me. If it were not in the past, I would not dare to go to Guo Ze's mansion to ask for a name. Now it is very different. Seeing that my Zhang family is very prosperous, Guo Ze did not refuse my request and give me face."
"Guoze County Zun is a person with high moral character. It is impossible for him to give face because of Zhang's power. He doesn't even give face to the governor and the county magistrate, let alone my Zhang family."
Zhang Liao believed that he still knew Guo Ze a little, so he didn't believe his brother's words and asked curiously: "Have you ever said when Guo County Zun was named?"
"Min means Min Tian Cang Min. As the saying goes, spring is the sky, summer is the Haotian, autumn is the sky, and winter is the sky. Therefore, Min specifically refers to autumn. At that time, the wheat in the valley enters the warehouse and everything is hidden. Min'er was born at the end of September in autumn, which is in line with Min's meaning and is a child who can enjoy happiness."
Based on his memory, Zhang Xun poured out Guo Ze's words mixed with his own understanding.
Zhang Liao couldn't help but think, he firmly believed that Guo Ze would not look at the Zhang family differently, so what is the meaning of naming Zhang family with such kindness?
Looking at Mayi County, Guo Ze is a highly educated man, and a famous scholar in the Jiexiu Guo family. Such a person cannot be blamed for his reputation or status. Being able to name a child of a landlord and wealthy family is of great honor and importance. If there is no alternative trick in it, Zhang Liao would never believe it.
He couldn't help asking again: "What else did Guoxian Zun say?"
Zhang Xun recited Guo Ze's words and said, "The vast and magnificent sky is not good, and he will be virtuous. He will be defeated by hunger and beheaded the four countries. Min Tian is powerful and does not worry about the goal. He will give up his guilt and condemn his innocence. If he is not guilty, he will be buried in the ministry."
This straightforward words and depressed words are translated as: You, the vast and endless heaven, never shine on the light of your favor. You just bring down the deaths and famines everywhere, and harm the princes from all directions to let the people suffer. The sky carries out tyranny with the autumn wind, and does not care about it without any scruples. Let those guilty escape and let their crimes be hidden. On the contrary, these innocent people are one after another.
Zhang Liao immediately understood that the heaven and the sky mentioned by Guo Ze naturally refer to the Han Dynasty. Most of the reasons for pressing the source of the disaster on the eunuch group. For example, the literati and officials in the court lived in seclusion and studied in seclusion without attending the court. Isn’t it because the wise and wise men who have no reason have ambitions?
On the contrary, the traitors who were guilty of the treacherous ministers were hidden by the heavens, and those who escaped and suffered were innocent people.
Zhang Liao couldn't help but imagine that Zhang Jiao would immediately shout the slogan that Huang Tian should stand. If that time comes, I don't know how Guo Ze would feel.
He admired people who were well-educated in poetry and books. Obviously, he named Zhang's son Min, not because he valued Zhang's meaning, but just the reason for expressing the depression in his heart.
Cang Min was extremely stupid and with the help of Zhang Family Zi born on Cang Min, he not only gave Zhang Family Zi a name, but also expressed his depression and aggrievance in his heart, which further reflected his helplessness and confusion.
This is a learned angry young man who uses the idea of satirizing the present through quoting classics and citing classics.
Zhang Xun interrupted his second brother's contemplation and said with a strange expression: "Guo County Zun has a gift to our Zhang family."
"What gift is it?" Zhang Liao smiled.
"One donkey leg, two donkey hearts."
Zhang Xun said sarcastically: "One donkey heart is written with a cloth strip on it, and the other donkey heart is written with a cloth strip on it."
"The tiger gall is a compliment, but the wolf heart is afraid it is accusing our Zhang family of bad intentions."
Zhang Liao smiled bitterly and said, "This Guoxian Zun really doesn't care about anything, and dares to say nothing."
Zhang's family business is growing rapidly, and Guoxianzun, as a parent official, naturally saw clearly that Zhang's thoughts must be impure.
As the emperor of a county, he was powerless and hoped that Zhang would have the courage to be brave, and he was hinting at Zhang's wolf-hearted ambitions. In this conflicting psychology, he slightly warned Zhang to vent his dissatisfaction and express that he was still loyal to the Han Dynasty.
Combined with naming Zhang's son Min, it can be further demonstrated that in his eyes, a landlord family like Zhang was also the culprit for the disaster.
Zhang Liao hopes that such a voice will be as strong as possible. He ignores Guo Ze's accusations, which only shows that Zhang is making rapid progress, which is the result he hopes to see.
"Fortunately, Guoxianzun's dissatisfaction with me, Zhang, was just talking about it, and he did not forget to add accusations." Zhang Xun spoke with great relief.
"Even if Guo Ze wants to say that I, Zhang, has to believe me, and someone has heard him say that nowadays, aristocratic families and local tyrants are accumulating their own family strength. Guo Ze is clear about this fact, so there is no need to deliberately make things difficult for my Zhang family."
Zhang Liao admired Guo Ze's moral gentleman very much and said, "The reason why Guo Ze complained was that the Han Dynasty had become increasingly weak.
With his status as Guo's family, and his loyalty to the Han Dynasty, he was not allowed to remain indifferent as the situation gradually declined, and his weak power could not turn the tide, and he could only vent his infinite depression through angry words."
Zhang Xun changed his voice and hurriedly said, "As far as you go, I have purchased more than 3,000 donkeys during the time you went out of the frontier. Now is a great time to sell them."
"If you sell donkeys, your brother will make the decision."
Zhang Liao smiled as he spoke, "Governor Zhang Yi and Guo Ze County Zun are both slaughtering donkeys for food, and have made silent protests against Emperor Liu Hong. Our family must do the same, and follow the trend of the gentry in the world resisting the emperor to accumulate reputation for me, Zhang."
"It's so good. In secret, I, Zhang, made a fortune with a donkey, and slaughtered a few donkeys on the surface to strengthen the momentum of governor Zhang and Guo County Zun." Zhang Xun laughed wildly.
