Chapter seven hundred and sixty eight good brothers
I really worry about my son!
Emperor Jiajing thought so shamelessly. Although he had not entered the Eastern Palace, he would definitely inherit the treasure in the future. He did not know how to control the court in the future.
It is indeed shameless... If Emperor Jiajing hadn't believed in the lies that "the two dragons cannot meet", how could he raise the two goods, King Yu and King Jing.
Now, except for the summoned one in the first month, Emperor Jiajing still has not seen him any other day... The unlucky son of King Yu has not yet named him.
Seeing Huang Jin coming back, Emperor Jiajing asked casually: "Who can succeed the Ministry of Rites?"
Huang Jin bowed and replied, "The emperor is arbitrary in this matter, so why dare I say anything wrong?"
Emperor Jiajing was shaking. Li Mo is now on the turn of Zhilu. Not to mention that he will enter the cabinet soon, he will at least focus most of his energy on Zhilu, so it is necessary to choose the next Minister of Rites.
The Minister of Rites is a very special position and has very strict requirements on the candidates to be selected.
Generally speaking, the other five ministers and ministers have the opportunity, but first of all, they are required to be from Hanlin officials and their qualifications should not be too shallow, and it is best to be from Zhanshi Mansion.
This article stumped more than 80% of the officials. Zhao Wenhua, Ouyang Bijin, Fang Dun, Feng Tianyu, and Yang Shun were not from Hanlin, let alone Zhan Shifu. This is also the reason why Yan Shifan wanted to protect Dongfen at the beginning of the year.
Dong Fen took the regular route of the Prime Minister, Hanlin Academy, Zhan Shifu, Imperial College, Minister of Rites, and was transferred to the Minister of Justice. If there were no accidents, he would be the most suitable successor to the next Minister of Rites...at least in terms of resumes.
Among the officials at the level of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, the Minister of Rites had great hopes, but they had high requirements for qualifications. In the Jiajing period, they had to be favored by Qing Ci... Lin Tingji's qualifications were sufficient, but he had only been transferred to Beijing for more than a year, and another Minister of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites Li Chunfang had a little less qualifications.
In fact, generally speaking, if the Minister of Rites wants to become the Minister of Rites, he needs to be transferred to the Minister of Rites for training. For example, Dong Fen was transferred to the Minister of Justice, Yuan Wei was transferred to the Minister of Personnel, and Yan Na was transferred to the Minister of Revenue, but Dong Fen had been dismissed from office, and the other two had a little less qualifications.
If you choose the Minister of Rites, you can still be transferred from Nanjing. Of course, only the six ministries in the Nandu can be transferred to the Minister of Rites at the level of the Secretary of Rites. This was the case with Yan Song back then.
But after counting, the Minister of War and Ministry of Revenue in Nanjing had just been ordered to retire, and the successor had too little qualifications. Except for the Minister of Rites in Nanjing, Sun Sheng, the other three Ministers were not from Hanlin.
Emperor Jiajing frowned and thought, "Huang Fan, Sun Sheng seems to have a memorial to invite him to retire?"
"Yes, in November last year and April this year, Sun Shengjun, the Minister of Rites of Nanjing, wrote a letter to request his resignation."
Emperor Jiajing shook his head slightly, and Sun Sheng himself was nothing, but his eldest son and second son were the backbone of Suiyuan.
In addition to the two capitals and six ministries, the Imperial College and the Zhanshi Mansion also have this qualification. Lu Ben was promoted to the Minister of Rites from the position of Taichang Temple and the Imperial College Priest. Similarly, Gao Gong is now today.
After thinking about it in my mind, Emperor Jiajing still shook his head slightly. Gao Gong's qualifications were still a little bit lighter, and his arrogant temperament was even more arrogant than Li Mo three years ago. I don't know if Zhan Cai's slippery head would obediently fight with Gao Gong...
Huang Jin saw Emperor Jiajing frowning and said with a smile: "I just went out, and that guy Zhan Cai insisted on paying compensation from the old slave."
"compensation?"
"It's true that the old slave came back yesterday and said his words to the emperor..."
"Bad!" Emperor Jiajing cursed: "If it weren't for his ability to do things and his loyalty, he would have sent him to Yunnan and Guizhou long ago!"
"He is just sharp-tongued." Huang Jin laughed and said, "I also blame Commander Lu."
"Has Wenfu provoked him?"
"Zhan Cai said that Commander Lu had implicated him today."
Emperor Jiajing was speechless. Who was implicating who?
Suiyuan.
Qian Yuan sat there with a big golden sword, and the old god was listening to Sun Yan's explanation. There was a pretty young man looking around curiously.
I don’t know if anyone is watching him, so Qian Yuan simply asked the guards to send a letter as soon as he came back and called Sun Jian and his younger brother Sun Mong over.
Sun Jian is only fifteen years old this year and has studied hard since childhood. Sun Ying once praised him as a thousand-mile horse. Sun Jian once said that Sun Kuang is still young, but in terms of meticulous research, Sun Kuang is the most exquisite in the five sons of the Sun family.
Qian Yuan didn't know that Sun Mine later became the Minister of War, and was known as "holding a scroll in the Grand Sima Hall."
However, because Sun Mine has not yet finished the imperial examination and has studied behind closed doors, this is the first time he has come to Suiyuan.
"Brother Wen, marriage is a matter of the Sun family, how can Qian interfere?" Qian Yuan smiled and said, "Lu Wenfu has a good intention..."
"My father was still hesitating about this matter, otherwise he would also inform Zhan Cai." Sun Jian smiled bitterly and said, "What Lu Wenfu is interested in is Suiyuan. Brother Yu Chen's affairs are close to you..."
"Different." Qian Yuan said simply: "Lu Wenfu is only loyal to His Majesty, and he is not involved in party disputes... After Yan Shifan's death, he was even more extinct in the court struggle, not like Huating."
"I was so grateful for a favor back then..."
"Okay, okay." Qian Yuan smiled and said, "Is Qian married Huating's granddaughter..."
After glanced at Sun Mine who seemed uneasy, Qian Yuan thought for a while before saying, "Wen Rong is in a hurry to go back?"
Sun Jian smiled and said, "Since you are here, let's wait a little longer. Wen Rong is preparing to give a try this year, so he can ask Brother Yu Chen for advice."
"Okay, hold a banquet tonight, and let Bomao, Cheng, and Zhenyao come and have fun."
Sun Kuang couldn't understand at all, and looked at the elder brother curiously with his eyes open and bowed.
After all, Sun Mine had never been to Suiyuan in the past three years. Qian Yuan was expressing his feelings and did not mean to force him into Suiyuan, which fully gave the Sun family represented by Sun Jing enough respect.
After a while, Wu Dui, Xian Yuan, Xu Wei, Zhu Dashou and others arrived. After all, they were all from Shaoxing Prefecture. Everyone knew Sun Kuang, and they smiled and bowed to congratulate him when they heard about this.
Seeing Peng Feng appear at the door, Qian Yuan winked and turned around and walked into the side hall.
"It's passed?"
"Yes." Peng Feng whispered: "Shift the letter to Zhang Hanlin in person."
"That's good." Qian Yuan snorted coldly. Zhang Siwei dared to delay any more, believe it or not!
At this moment, Lu Shude, who went to the Houzhai to pay homage to Lu, accompanied Qian Zheng along the corridor. He happened to meet Lin Feng, who had already returned home and was still excited to come... He spared no effort to please his brother-in-law!
Through the window, Qian Zheng saw his nephew frown, gritting his teeth, looking ready to go. After thinking about it, he signaled the two young people to go to the main hall first.
"Yuan'er?"
"Uncle." Qian Yuan rubbed his eyebrows and said with a smile: "It finally went vaguely... Zhang Siwei's merchant nature is like a merchant, mosquito's belly is cut into fat and oil, and egrets are chopped on their feet."
After a few perfunctory words, one of the uncle and nephews went from the corridor and the other from the side hall of the inner room, and went to the main hall at the same time.
As soon as he stepped in, Qian Yuan heard Xian Yu whisper loudly: "Zhenyao, I have been hiding this for so long, so I can't do it if I don't have to drink tonight!"
Lu Shude asked curiously: "Brother Bo Mao, what good thing is it?"
"Today, the young master and brother Zhan Cai both went south. Zhenyao and the Qian family are engaged. In the future, they will call Brother Zhan Cai brother-in-law!"
Lu Yipeng smiled and said, "Zhenyao is losing money!"
“Why do you say that?”
"Originally, Zhenyao was a Jinshi of the same year as Cheng, and his brothers called each other." Lu Yipeng was from Songjiang and knew the most about this matter. He smiled and said, "Yue Cheng's niece is Zhan Cai's aunt... She is two generations taller!"
Lin Feng bowed with a smile, and finally felt satisfied!
Lu Shude, behind Lin Qiong, was calm, but his face was ashamed... Damn, now the Qian family has only two unmarried people, so it can't be Qian Zheng's daughter who is only six years old this year!
What a scheming, so scheming!
Lu Shude bit his lip tightly. It was impossible for the engagement to be settled in a short while. He had been hiding it for so long!
What a good brother!
Qian Yuan glanced at this guy and shook his head slightly indifferently. The difference in seniority was twice as big as it was impossible.
But then Qian Yuan's face changed, as if he had forgotten to tell his uncle about this... Qian Zheng's gaze moved on his nephew's face like a needle.
