"Is it true that he and Cai Xiang are not dealing with each other?"

These are some trajectories in Zhao Cheng’s small amount of historical memories, so I’ll ask by the way.

Zhang Ji? He looked bad and his head tilted, "It depends on how to understand. Basically, he likes to criticize whoever has a strong limelight. At the beginning, he was just a small promotion official in Kaifeng Prefecture. His favorite thing was to criticize the high officials in the temple. This made him taste the sweetness. The more he swears, the bigger his official position. Soon in order to get him out of the capital, he became the chief criminal magistrate of Hedong Road. Later, he had done all the punishment officials in Hebei, Jiangxi and Huainan, and they all did it like a flash of flowers. Because he squirted wherever he was, it was all old things."

Zhang Ji continued, "During the Emperor Zhezong, he loved to criticize Yuanyoudang, Wen Yanbo, Su Shi, Sima Guang, Lu Gongzhu and others the most, and he was criticized by him a lot."

Zhao Cheng was stunned, "If this happens, he should have a good relationship with Cai Jing?"

Zhang Ji nodded, "This is how it is in the past. He had a good relationship with Cai Jing at the beginning, especially in Chongning Nian. After Cai Jing became prime minister, he became the left prime minister of Cai Jing (assistant prime minister). However, there were differences in political views in a short period of time, perhaps because of his integrity and integrity, or because of his personality. When Lao Zhang was accused of old man, he publicly slandered Cai Jing several times, which was particularly fierce. As a result, some censors came out to say that Lao Zhang was morally corrupt. Zhang Shangying once criticized the Yuanyou Party and then shot the Yuanyou Party horses. His position and ideas were not firm."

Zhao Cheng said with a strange expression, "I guess Lao Zhang will respond to things and people?"

Zhang Ji nodded and said, "That's how he responded. Maybe he really is right to things, but maybe this is how he deals with people. In short, outsiders cannot recognize this thing, and I'm afraid no one except him knows it. However, he is honest and relatively upright in his official position."

"What happened later?" Zhao Cheng asked again.

Zhang Ji smiled and said, "That was during the prosperous period of Cai Jing. Zhang Shangying slandered Cai Jinggan several times and would definitely be demoted. The result was of course demoted from the magistrate of Beijing Bozhou. He was lucky enough to follow him. When he encountered a star change, Cai Jing avoided suspicion and stopped prefecture. During the Zhao Tingzhi period, he was activated to Hangzhou and became the old master of Liangzhe Road Criminal Division. This is his resume."

Zhao Cheng thought Zhang Ji was quite accurate and had tried to minimize his evaluation of Lao Zhang. Zhang Shangying is a good person, generally speaking, but he is very ambitious and talented. Even though he had the opportunity many times, he had won the appreciation of Wang Anshi and Emperor Huizong, but he did not make any achievements.

He was indeed a little unstable. The period when he was appreciated by Wang Anshi was that Zhang Shangying criticized Sima Guang and Lu Gong during the period when Wen Yanbo was written. Later, he became a very strange fan and wrote many articles, classics, etc. to support Sima Guang and others.

Wang Anshi's era is over, but Cai Bian and Cai Jing's era are almost here, so he turned into fans to Sima Guang and others and became enemies of the Cai family. However, the difference between Lao Zhang and Lu Huiqing was that he actually had a good relationship with Cai Jing in the early years of Chongning. With the help of Lao Cai's east wind, he entered the temple and became the Left Chief.

Overall, this troll has experienced ups and downs for three days. After Cai Jing, he will have another chance to officially become prime minister. Unfortunately, he is really ambitious and talented and did nothing. He followed Zhao Ting's old path. The only thing he did in terms of prime minister was to deny all Cai Jing's policies, which caused great impulse in a short period of time, so he stepped down again.

Finally, Zhang Ji said: "It has been delayed a lot of time. I still have a lecture. Finally, I want to say that he and my father are okay, but they are not in the same way as my second uncle."

Zhao Cheng's expression became strange. Her uncle Zhang Kegong was also a big troll. It was naturally impossible to deal with two trolls named Zhang together.

Zhang Ji? has left and went to the lecture hall.

Zhao Cheng confirmed again what he was doing based on Lao Zhang's resume.

"It must be the one who replaces Cai Jing to maintain stability and mix with others."

Regarding Zhang Shangying, Zhao Cheng felt that this was the only explanation.

Whether people like Zhang Shangying are upright or not is a matter of whether they are honest or not, based on their qualifications and knowledge, they are an old child who is as fragile as an old child. In fact, this is the true nature of a literati. If he was a treacherous minister, he would not be like this. He would be very thick-skinned and seem kind.

He had such a disagreement with Cai Jing at that time. He slandered Lao Cai several times and was kicked out of the central government to the magistrate of Bozhou. There must be no doubt that he had made enemies with Cai Jing. But in fact, Lao Cai was already very gentle. He slandered the policy of the ruling people and slandered several times like a troll. It was already very big.

In fact, if you do this in the civilized era, you will be more serious than this.

But now that he is making enemies with Cai Jing, he is willing to accept the appointment of Lao Cai to come to Chizhou, so there should be several explanations.

One is that scholars like him naturally do not like fighting and the atmosphere of blood and fire. When the government army (Zhao Cheng) has not won for a long time and is in an unfavorable situation, scholars such as this will be afraid and choose to compromise on the imperial court in order to avoid casualties among the people.

Secondly, his attributes like to spit out the limelight, Zhao Cheng is now, so he comes.

Another thing is that Zhao Cheng had previously suspected that the problem of characterizing the Manichaeism would bring trouble, and Lao Zhang was the chief clerk of Liangzhe Road.

Zhao Cheng concluded that it was the Manicheism in the Battle of Lingyang Mountain. Since Manicheism is so bold, it means that before this, the bureaucrats on both Zhejiang roads were blinded, and Zhang Shangying, the chief of the punishment, had the greatest theory of responsibility. Therefore, Lao Zhang's glass-minded personality would rebound greatly.

The fourth is that Zhang Shangying did not trust the Cai family, and the incident in which Lingyangshan made the entire Liangzhe Road bureaucrats unable to come to Taiwan was decided by Zhao Cheng, the subordinate of Cai You, and his prospective son-in-law. Zhang Shangying should naturally distrust the Lingyangshan incident. In the case where he did not know the truth, it is highly likely to be understood as a political blow or even persecution of him, Lao Zhang.

The above four points are what Zhao Cheng guessed, and Zhang Shangying was willing to accept Cai Jing's appointment to enter Chizhou.

As for why the cunning Cai Jing appointed Zhang Shangyinglai instead of others?

This seems very ambiguous, and Zhao Cheng has a premonition: Cai Jing is swaying and worried about gains and losses.

At the beginning, Cai Jing was already out of patience with his son Cai You because of financial difficulties and wanted to try an alternative method. This is why Cai Jing agreed to Zhang Shuye and Zhang Kangguo and others deployed Wuwei Army to Chizhou.

It’s not that Lao Cai really can’t stop this process, it’s that he is playing with balance and pretending to be unable to stop it, giving his maids in the southeast region a beat so that they don’t look too ugly.

But when Wuwei Army was in trouble, it was a mess but it was slow to report the war that was beneficial to the court and was defeated one after another. Then Cai Jing must not want the chaos in the southeast region, so he wanted to put out the fire and adopt the ease-up strategy of Zhao'an. Anyway, this is basically the national policy of the Song Dynasty.

But even Zhao'an, from Cai Jing's position, he was not at ease to leave it to his own people at this time, because in essence, these disasters were caused by his own people, and now they are left to his own people. The southeast region will be even more overwhelming. So Lao Cai chose Zhang Shangying, who is relatively upright and dares to speak, to do this. His reputation will be better, and the resistance from Zhang Shuye and others will be much smaller.

I think it's basically smooth, maybe a bit biased, but it shouldn't be too far from the core of this "transaction".

Even if I have no idea, my stinky daughter-in-law still wants to meet her parents-in-law. She can only go to the state office to see Cai You's attitude, and then see if the old fox Huang Wenbing, really helped Zhao Cheng withstand the political pressure as she promised before...

Enter the prefecture.

Cai You, Huang Wenbing, and Wang Fu and other major officials in Chizhou are placing a seemingly fairy-like character... Well, they should be an extremely elegant person around the core and have tea and talk.

That person is Zhang Shangying, who is really well-known. He is a crazy talented man, and he is a handsome guy in the old version. With his talent and demeanor, this person must have been a heartthrob when he was young.

Therefore, there is really a bonus to work under Zhao Ji's command. There is an absolute bonus to work under the Song Dynasty. This is why the trolls have experienced ups and downs for three dynasties and have been highly praised by Zhao Ji.

"Sir Zhao Cheng, please see all your husbands."

Zhao Cheng was wearing a green robe and his official hat was crooked again, which was a bit funny. In this occasion, the green robe seemed particularly dazzling.
