Straight man of steel

Chapter 320
Although Zong Xing and Zhuo Wenjun left Linqiong on the same day, they did not walk side by side.

Zhuo Wenjun did not tell Zong Xing that she chose to go back to Chang'an. After telling Zong Xing, he would definitely go with Zhuo Wenjun.

But that attracted other people's attention. Zhuo Wenjun thought that what Zong Xing should do this time was a confidential matter, and there was no need to take risks if he could not reveal his whereabouts.

So Zong Xing alone was much faster than Zhuo Wenjun. He traveled almost day and night, and it took him seven days to get back to Du County from Linqiong.

Seeing Zong Xing's return, Zhang Yuan couldn't hide the joy on his face.

Because of the long delay, Zhang Yuan didn't take the task of making Tian Fu disappear for a long time. He just thought that Zong Xing would be safe.

"Your boy has been on this trip for so long, what happened on the way?"

Although Zong Xing was exhausted physically and mentally, he still gave Zhang Yuan a smile.

"It's nothing serious, except that Sima Xiangru and Tang Meng attacked Fu County.

At that time, the rumors were tight, and the villain stayed in Fu County for ten more days, but the villain has already completed the things you told the villain. "

After finishing speaking, Zong Xing took off the package behind him, and opened it in front of Zhang Yuan.

There are about thirty or forty crazy fruit in it.

Zong Xing only knew the efficacy of this fruit, but he didn't know what Zhang Yuan was going to do with it.

"Okay, put the things here with me first, you have driven for such a long time, go home and see your parents.

Stay in Lantian Mountain for ten days and come back to see me. "

"Hey, thank you Patriarch."

The madman fruit matter is a big deal, although Zhang Yuan doesn't know if its efficacy is true or not, but he doesn't plan to ask someone to experiment.

If it is really useful, it will be useful. If it is useless, Zhang Yuan can only think of other ideas. In the end, there is really no way out. It is not that there is no punishment for mission failure. Let’s resist it and see if there are any consequences.

Poisoning is a technical task, especially for the madman fruit. Zhang Yuan can't follow the rumors in the southwest and throw the fruit directly into Tianfu.

We can only grind it into fine powder, and finally squeeze out the juice to see if it can be mixed into the wine, or find other ways to send it to Tian Fu's stomach.

The surface of this madman fruit is yellow and has spikes, but it is actually similar to a lychee.

Zhang Yuan got a stone bowl, then found a log the size of a fist, shut himself in the room all afternoon, and kept doing the beating movements.

In the end, there was not much juice harvested. After finding a bronze wine bottle for storage, Zhang Yuan collected all the remaining nuts.

The reason why Zhang Yuan got this kind of poison was entirely because it was recorded in the history books that the last few months of Tian Fu's life were like hysteria, and he thought that this hallucinogenic drug might aggravate the condition.

Once you have the poison, you just don't know how to inject it.

Now Zhang Yuan is not the same as before. In the past, he could go to the Prime Minister's Mansion casually. Since he switched to Princess Pingyang's sect, Tian Fu has killed himself more than once. If Zhang Yuan went to the Prime Minister for no reason The government will definitely arouse the suspicion of others.

After thinking about it for a while, suddenly there were footsteps outside the door.

"Tai Xueling, are you in the room?"

It was King Qiu Shou. Zhang Yuan quickly cleaned up the traces left behind, then stood up and opened the door.

"I was resting just now, what's the matter with you?"

Zhang Yuan welcomed King Wuqiu Shou into the room.

"Tai Xueling, I just thought that you said that the prime minister might stop you, and I have heard that there is a gap between the Tai Xueling and the prime minister, so I thought about going to Chang'an City with the Tai Xueling tomorrow.

After seeing Dr. Yushi, I will accompany you to the Prime Minister's Mansion. You and I should lower our posture a bit. Since the Prime Minister has a lot, the Prime Minister will definitely not play tricks on the Tai Xue about this matter. "

King Wuqiu Shou obviously worried for a long time before finally making this decision.

As for whether Tian Fu has a large number of adults, there is no need to explain what everyone knows.

"Okay, get your horse ready tomorrow morning and I'll take you with me."

"Okay, thank you Taixue Ling."

King Wuqiu Shou was worried that his official career would be ruined by the grievances between Zhang Yuan and Tian Fu, otherwise he would not have forced himself into this muddy water.

Zhang Yuan didn't care too much, he knew Tian Fu far more than Wuqiu Shouwang, and if he really broke up with Tian Fu tomorrow, Wuqiu Shouwang would be useless.

Tian Fu didn't regard people like King Wuqiu Shou as a person in his own world at all. If someone at the same level or someone with weight persuaded him, Tian Fu might be able to calm down his anger.

Changing to a persuasion by a person whose status is much worse than his own, I am afraid that Tian Fu's anger will be stronger.

However, King Wuqiu Shou reminded Zhang Yuan that tomorrow is an opportunity to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion in a fair manner, with official business in hand, who else would doubt anything?
Zhang Yuan made another inconspicuous container out of fine bamboo overnight, and then poured the venom that was originally contained in the bronze wine bottle into it.

Zhang Yuan also collected the crushed madman's nuts and put them in a thin bamboo container.

Early the next morning, King Wuqiu Shou arrived as scheduled.

Zhang Yuan didn't let him wait for long, simply washed up, changed into his official uniform, put on his seal, and rode with him to Chang'an City.

When they arrived in Chang'an City, just in time for the end of the court meeting, the two went directly to the residence of Doctor Yushi in the city.

This official office is second only to the Prime Minister's Mansion in Chang'an City, and this is Zhang Yuan's first visit, and there are no less officials coming and going in the Yushi Doctor's Mansion than the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The reason is that Tian Fu regards the prime minister's mansion as his private residence and doesn't like too many people coming and going. Although Zhang Ou is not a person who handles affairs, he doesn't have much selfishness.

"It's just gone to court, and the doctor Yu Shi may not have returned yet, so let's go in first and wait."

"it is good."

Wearing an official uniform and walking into the mansion of Doctor Yushi, this time there was no one to even ask.

Straight to the innermost main hall.

These government offices are actually designed in the palace style, and the palaces in each place are different institutions.

Taixue is also designed in a palace style, but because it is located in Du County, only the front half is a palace, and the back is not much different from those mansions in Beique Jiadi.

However, the places where students live are much better than ordinary houses. In the future, the number of students in Taixue is likely to exceed [-], and only one Taixue can occupy a quarter of the population of Du County.

Fortunately, the students in Taixue were all male, and Zhang Yuan did not have the heart to break the rules. No matter how many people there were, there would be no distinction between men and women, and 2 people would be more than enough.

When the two reached the main hall, someone greeted them with a smile on their faces.

These official offices are all open, and there is no secret at all, and those who can enter through the gate are not idlers.

Only the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Tingwei Mansion and the Lieutenant's Mansion were the only ones that were strictly checked.

In addition, half of the official offices are actually distributed in Jianzhang Palace and Weiyang Palace, and idlers can't even enter the palace gates, let alone enter these official offices.

"Excuse me, is the Shangguan the Tai Xueling Zhang Yuan?"

The attitude of the visitor was very respectful. Although Zhang Yuan didn't know many people, he had been to court a few times. Although the number of times this time was not many, it often attracted the attention of most people.

"I am Zhang Yuan, and this is Prince Wuqiu Shou, the Prime Minister of Taixue. This is the first time for me to come to the Imperial Doctor's Mansion, and I don't know a few people. May I ask what your name is?"

"Xiaguan is from the Chengfan family of the imperial historian. He was the prefect of Jiujiang County before, and now he came to Beijing to assist the imperial historian Zhang Ou. It is reasonable for the Taixue Ling not to know Xiaguan."

Zhang Yuan didn't expect that the second in command of the Yushi doctor's mansion would come out to meet him as soon as he came.

There are three long histories in the prime minister's mansion, and there are two prime ministers in the royal doctor's mansion.

Its name is Yushi Dafucheng, referred to as Yushicheng, who assists Yushidoctor to perform the functions of deputy prime minister, and has to stay in Yushidafu's mansion all the time.

The second is the famous Yushi Zhongcheng, because Yushi Zhongcheng will stay at Lantai in the palace to serve at the emperor's side, so it is more important to use. Sometimes the world only knows that there is Yushi Zhongcheng but does not know that there is also a Yushi doctor Cheng.

Zhang Yuan has a little impression of this person in Fanxi, mainly because this guy is a link between the past and the next. The link above refers to Gong Sunhong, and the link refers to Li Cai.

This guy will be promoted to the imperial censor in the future. The person in front of him is Gongsun Hong. After becoming the censor, he will become the prime minister. The next censor below him is Li Cai. Li Cai will also become the censor. Go to be the prime minister.

During Liu Che's administration, only Gongsun Hong and Li Cai were promoted from the position of Yushi doctor to the post of prime minister. Gongsun Hong was the representative of civil officials, and Li Cai was the representative of military generals.

As a result, the family sandwiched between the two people feels quite incompatible.

"It turned out to be Yu Shicheng. I have heard of your reputation for a long time. Earlier, His Majesty wanted to build canals to irrigate the farmland. I remember that it was you who suggested it."

Fan Xi touched his head in embarrassment. He really thought that Zhang Yuan had paid attention to him before.

"Tai Xueling laughed at me. It was also because of this incident that I was transferred to Chang'an."

Zhang Yuan nodded. The transfer from a local prefect to Yushi Dafucheng was obviously a demotion. Coupled with Fan Xi's performance, it showed that the construction of the canal was not going well.

However, Zhang Yuan only knew that he suggested that Liu Che build canals, and the rest was not clear.
