Wei and Jin cooks

Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan carried the coffin back, and everyone in the court was shocked. They knew that Fu Zhi was in bad condition, but they did not expect that he would collapse on the way back to Beijing.

The most saddened person about Fu Zhi's death was Xun Zu, who was assigned to Taixue. He couldn't help crying in public, and then cried all the way to Fu Zhai to pay homage.

He was really sad. Once Fu Zhi died, the only person who could restrain Zhao Hanzhang was gone.

Xun Zuo sat in front of the soul and cried bitterly, cursing God for his lack of foresight. The country had just stabilized. Fu Zizhuang had made great achievements for the country and the people. Who could you accept?

"You are here, I have nothing to worry about, Jun is away, I can't sleep day and night!" Xun, a man in his fifties, cried so hard that his beard and hair flew off. If his colleagues hadn't stopped him, he would have almost died. You have to climb up to the coffin and pat the coffin, hoping to bring the people inside to life.

Seeing that he was so sad, Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help but feel a sore nose. He personally stepped forward to comfort and thank him.

Group Xun reluctantly stopped and was being helped to go down. An old man wearing coarse linen clothes and slightly disheveled hair came outside the gate. He must have rushed over after hearing the news. He was wearing the wrong shoes and had wooden clogs on one side. On one side are cloth shoes.

He didn't care and came in laughing.

Fu Zhi had an excellent reputation, and many nobles and common people came to pay homage after hearing the news. Therefore, Princess Hongnong did not set up a gate, and anyone who came could pay homage. Therefore, although the soldiers guarding the gate stared at the sloppy old man with wide eyes, they Didn't stop him either.

When Zhao Hanzhang heard the loud laughter, he turned around and opened his mouth slightly, Zhang Xie?

Is he coming down the mountain?

How did it become like this?

Zhang Xie, who historically died long ago in the early years of Yongjia, has lived until now. When Zhao Changyu passed away, he even came to cry, and scolded the Jin royal family and the court bloody in front of the Zhao family.

After Zhao Hanzhang took Luoyang, she went up the mountain several times to ask him to come down. Although he helped in the process, he was unwilling to really become an official. Most of the time he was still on the mountain. Especially this year, she went up the mountain many times to ask him to come down to teach. The little emperor was rejected by him. When she went up the mountain again, he excused herself because of illness. This showed that she was determined and she did not expect that he would come down the mountain to attend the funeral.

Zhang Xie came for the funeral, but he looked very happy. Although there were tears in his eyes, his face was full of smiles.

He stood in front of the soul and said to Fu Zhi: "Zizhuang, you are much luckier than Zhao Changyu. You are fortunate to see the country is stable and the people's hearts are gradually stabilized. What regrets do you have?"

At this point, he burst out laughing, turned around and asked Fu Tinghan, "Did your grandfather pass away peacefully?"

Fu Tinghan nodded and said: "An Sheng, he left with a smile."

"Okay, okay, okay, hahahahaha," Zhang Xie looked up to the sky and laughed, "I said he had no regrets, and indeed he had no regrets."

Zhang Xie happily served him three sticks of incense, looked at the coffin and said happily: "You go slowly, I will go to you to play chess later. I just hope that Zhao Changyu has not gone too far, and we can catch up with him."

Zhao Hanzhang's heart skipped a beat and he looked carefully at Zhang Xie's face. Seeing that his face was rosy and did not look like he was sick, he breathed a sigh of relief.

After Zhang Xie laid the incense, he accepted the return gifts from Fu Xuan and Fu Tinghan, and ignored the others. He turned around and was about to leave. When he saw Zhao Hanzhang standing on one side, he paused slightly and said with a strange look on his face: "I just hope that the general will not He failed us old people."

Before Zhao Hanzhang could speak, he saw him striding out and saw Xun Zu supported by two people in the yard. He snorted coldly: "Rotten wood, rotten wood, even the heart is rotten, and you still want to carve it. Be careful. The rotten wood fell apart and my hands were scratched.”

Xun Zu's expression changed drastically, but he did not dare to refute him in front of Zhao Hanzhang.

Zhang Xie shook his sleeves and left with a laugh.

Zhao Hanzhang looked at his back and turned to call Zeng Yue, "Send someone to take Mr. Zhang back. You must deliver him home safely."

Zeng Yue agreed and hurriedly chased after him.

Fu Zhiling was buried on the seventh day, and Zhao Hanzhang prepared a posthumous name for him - Wenzhong.

This is a beautiful posthumous title, and Fu Zhi deserves this word of "loyalty" throughout his life. None of the officials, including the young emperor, have any objections.

Just after the posthumous title was decided, news came from the mountain that Zhang Xie was seriously ill.

Zhao Hanzhang opened his mouth in surprise, "He looked fine when he came to attend the funeral..."

Zeng Yue reported: "His family said that he has been sick since the King of East China Sea conquered him. He only got better in the past two years, but he only looked good on the surface, and his foundation was already bad."

"In June last year, he became seriously ill and almost didn't survive. Later, he heard that the girl conquered Shi Le and destroyed the Huns. Then he started to get better. After more than half a year, he was able to walk on the ground in March this year," Zeng Yue whispered. Said: "The Zhang family said that the general came to invite him several times after spring, and he was already interested. He just didn't want to teach the little emperor, but wanted to teach at the Imperial Academy. He was waiting for the general to propose."

"Unexpectedly, he started to fall ill after he came down the mountain to pay homage to Duke Fu, but in just seven days..." Zeng Yue paused and said, "But the Zhang family said he passed away peacefully, with a smile on his face. ."

Zhao Hanzhang twitched the corner of his mouth and forced a smile: "That's good, prepare for the funeral ceremony. I will go to the Zhang family to pay homage tomorrow."

Zeng Yue agreed.

Zhao Hanzhang went to the Zhang family to pay homage to Zhang Xie in person. Thinking of the time when he came to the Zhao family to cry out and help her break the situation, and what he said in front of Fu Ziling, she knew where their hearts were tied.

Under the special political environment, people of their generation either turn a blind eye like Zhao Changyu and Fu Zhi, only move towards their own goals, and ignore the things they cannot change. ;

Or like Zhang Xie and Xia Houyan, they see both the good and the bad, struggle and resent because they are unable to change, and in the end they can only hide in the mountains and pretend to close their eyes.

But whether it's the former or the latter, their eyes are closed but their hearts are open. It doesn't mean they can't see without thinking.

This makes them very painful. They see their country destroyed and their family destroyed, but they are unable to reverse it. With the road ahead confused, they can only keep questioning their own hearts and torture themselves day by day.

Zhao Hanzhang has always wanted them to become officials, just to tell them that she can give them a pole, and as long as they work hard, they can change the world and this dilemma.

But, this has just begun, and they are all gone.

They only had time to see the flames, but they didn't see it blazing yet.

Zhao Hanzhang held back his tears, bowed down, inserted the incense and said to Zhang Xie's two sons: "Since the old gentleman has the intention to help the country, I hope you can inherit your father's ambition. When you are full of filial piety, please two of you." Come to Taixue to teach.”

Zhang Xie's eldest son Zhang Wei quickly looked at his younger brother Zhang Qun. Zhang Qun nodded slightly, and Zhang Wei agreed.

Zhao Hanzhang also glanced at Zhang Qun and said, "If you have any difficulties, just come to me at the General's Mansion."

Zhang Wei and Zhang Qun both agreed with moved expressions.

After Zhang Xie passed away, not many people came to pay homage to Zhang Xie. Zhao Hanzhang came beyond their expectation. After Zhao Hanzhang came, the number of people who came to pay homage to Zhang Xie increased, which made the brothers even more grateful to Zhao Hanzhang.

See you tomorrow
