Straight man of steel

Chapter 322
Since the Guanfu family was killed by Tian Fu and Dou Ying retired and returned to his hometown, Tian Fu's power has reached its peak inside and outside the court.

What is different from the previous Tian Fu is that in the past, Tian Fu would definitely be as public as possible, but now just looking at the Prime Minister's Mansion, it gives people a feeling that those things have never happened before.

"Tai Xueling, I always feel that the atmosphere in the Prime Minister's Mansion is a little different from before."

King Wuqiu Shou frowned, and the two stood in front of the prime minister's mansion and said.

"Compared to the time of the wedding banquet before, it looks a little dull now."

There was no smile on the faces of the people who came and went, and they were all in a hurry.

Zhang Yuan suddenly thought in his heart that his poison might not be needed at all.

To make such an obvious change in a mansion, only his master can do it.

Something bad must have happened to Tian Fu, otherwise the scene in front of him would not have happened.

"Tai Xueling, let's go in and talk about it first. My heart is not very stable. I hope everything will go well later."

"Uh-huh."

As they spoke, the two walked towards the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion together.

Because the prime minister's mansion is not only an office, but also a private residence, people who come and go will be checked at the door no matter who they are.

"Dare to ask the two of you?"

"I'm Taixueling Zhang Yuan, and this is Taixue Chengwuqiu Shouwang, we have something to see the prime minister, please inform me."

"This way, you two, please wait in the living room first."

"Ah."

There are also quite a few officials in the living room, all of whom are waiting to see Tian Fu, and those who need to do ordinary things can go directly to the three prime ministers.

There were not too few people who knew Zhang Yuan, and they all came forward to meet him, and some nodded with a smile.

It can be said that Zhang Yuan didn't know any of them, but he also returned the gift.

Those who came to visit were all with lower official positions than themselves, and they just nodded their heads. It is estimated that the titles are higher than Zhang Yuan, but the official positions are not necessarily the same.

The big man, more than a dozen ministers, and Zhang Yuan still knew each other, but there were so many marquises, and they were changed at every turn. Zhang Yuan really didn't remember these princes.

"Tai Xueling, there are so many people today, we may have to wait."

"No matter how many people there are, there are priorities. Later, you can talk to the visitors from the Prime Minister's Mansion and tell them why we came here.

In fact, as long as the prime minister knows about this matter, it will be fine. If the prime minister says to let the chief historian handle it, then we can just go to the chief historian in the palace.

The Censor's Mansion has already passed, and the Prime Minister's Mansion is only responsible for implementation, and there is nothing else. "

"Yeah, I'll do it now, sir."

Seeing King Wuqiu Shou's nervous look, some people present also guessed why Zhang Yuan came to the Prime Minister's Mansion today. From time to time, people came over and wanted to probe Zhang Yuan's tone.

"Tai Xue Ling, you just came out with the regulations of the official school, and you came to the prime minister's mansion to implement the world?"

This is not something to hide, Zhang Yuan smiled and nodded.

"Yes, Doctor Yu Shi and His Majesty have already agreed, and the next step is to promote it."

"Some time ago, there have been rumors in Chang'an City that the Taixue Ling intends to allow students who study at the Taixue to directly study and be compensated as Lang?"

Zhang Yuan certainly couldn't admit that those students who went to study in various government offices were in the eyes of outsiders, but Zhang Yuan kept saying that they were still students.

However, at this time, people in the world did not have the concept of internship. They said that if you don't study, you will not study. Zhang Yuan didn't have much choice.

"Those students don't actually have official status. Rumors are just rumors after all. You are all in high positions, so don't you have your own judgment?"

"Since the Taixue order is said to be a rumor, then it is a rumor, but how do you deal with the students who graduated from the Taixue?"

There are a lot of people in the living room today, and the conversation here will spread out soon. Zhang Yuan doesn't mind if they ask more, so he just took this opportunity to spread the things he wanted to explain.

"Since they can graduate from Taixue, they have already proved their abilities. The role of Taixue is only to teach students. Teaching them how to be a talent is the first priority, and the second is to impart knowledge.

As for the rumors in Chang'an City that the Imperial Academy will directly intervene in the selection of officials, I, Zhang Yuan, in front of all the princes, can only say that the person who spreads these words has a terrible intention.

The officials of the Great Han are all serving the Great Han and serving His Majesty, and the selection of officials is also His Majesty's business. We, as courtiers, can recommend them, but who dares to be His Majesty's master.

Lords, tell me, do the people who spread rumors have bad intentions? If such rumors are spread, where will I be concerned about Zhang Yuan?Doesn't it mean that I, Zhang Yuan, am an unfaithful and unjust person? "

As soon as this statement came out, many people couldn't sit still, and there were some of them who spread the rumors.

As we all know, the right to select officials is the most important power of the big man, and they cannot grab military power. A large part of the right to select officials is decided by the prime minister.

This is also where the conflict between Liu Che and Tian Fu lies. What does Zhang Yuan say in the prime minister's mansion now, what does Tian Fu think?
Since management selection is the emperor's business, is Tian Fu going to resign and go home now?
"Tai Xue Ling is cautious about his words. Maybe it's just a few words from the common people when they have nothing to do. We all know these things in our hearts. How can Tai Xue Ling be upright, loyal to His Majesty, loyal to the big man, and do such disobedient things?"

Seeing the uproar in the living room, someone immediately stood up to ease the atmosphere.

That is to say, King Wuqiu Shou is not here, otherwise he would be pissed off by Zhang Yuan. Today I came to ask the prime minister to do something, so why can't I control my mouth.

"You are right, sir. I have been feeling quite exhausted recently because of the official school regulations.

Thinking about why so many people still say bad things about me when I put all my heart and soul into working hard for the big man, now that I think about it, I may really be thinking too much.

That's all, mouths grow on other people's bodies, they can say whatever they like, and they are not afraid of shadows if they are upright, right? "

"Yeah, yes, Tai Xueling has such an understanding, it is worthy of His Majesty's trust in you."

Whether it was for show or sincerity, Zhang Yuan did not get involved in these people's topics.

It was also done on purpose just now, to let Tian Fu know about the living room. Zhang Yuan knew Tian Fu, and he would not hold back any resentment in his heart. Knowing that Zhang Yuan was talking nonsense here, he must see Zhang Yuan.

Otherwise, based on the previous atmosphere in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Tian Fu must be in a bad mood. Seeing Zhang Yuan may be more troublesome, and he may simply disappear, and directly hand over the official school regulations to a long history .

If this is the case, Zhang Yuan's visit to the Prime Minister's Mansion would not have been in vain.
