Chapter 294 The Two Aunts
......
The empress signaled that the eunuch in front of the hall waved the whip and signaled the ministers to silence.
The ministers calmed down, and the joy that could not be concealed on their faces.
The Minister of Revenue was depressed and had plans in his mind. If he could not serve as the chief officer, once something unfavorable to him appeared in Chen Anbang's residence, he would have to spend a good price to bribe the Minister of Personnel, which would not be careless at all.
The empress looked majestic, glanced at the ministers and said in a deep voice:
"I agree with what you are saying, so that's the matter."
The Minister of Personnel was happy and the ministers were upset. Someone then congratulated the Minister of Personnel.
The public affairs clerk glanced at Zhao Wujiang who was calm:
"After the dynasty is dispersed, I will go to congratulate the Minister of Personnel, and will surely be brilliant in the future..."
"I declare." The empress said majestic.
The ministers' voices became weaker and knew that the emperor was about to issue an oral order.
The Minister of Personnel raised his chest.
The empress is majestic in her face:
"Chen Anbang corruption and found his home in public.
The person in charge will be responsible for the house search matter, the secretary Zhao Wujiang!”
"Congratulations, Zhao...well?" Someone congratulated the Minister of Personnel with his fists.
The Minister of Personnel was shocked. He suspected that he had heard it wrong. What is Secretary Zhao Wujiang? Is he a fourth-rank?
The Minister of Revenue was also stunned. He couldn't believe it. The emperor was nodding, but why was Zhao Wujiang the chief officer?
The other ministers were in an uproar. Four of the six ministers had the same spirit and one of them had many ministers to protect them. They were actually able to pick peaches by Zhao Wujiang. How can people believe this?
The public servant opened his mouth and glanced at Zhao Wujiang beside him. He felt trembling in his heart and wanted to slap himself twice. He had just said that he offended the emperor's commander.
The hall was boiling and everyone was talking.
The shock in the heart of the Minister of Personnel was suppressed, and he was immediately dissatisfied. With years of favor, he had made many court officials support him, and he also suppressed the Minister of Revenue. In the end, he was Zhao Wujiang's chief official.
And Zhao Wujiang is just a small secretary, why?
"The emperor, according to the law of the Daxia, if the house is confiscated, the chief official must be the next level or above the same level as the house confiscated official." The Minister of Personnel shouted loudly:
"Now Zhao Wujiang is just a sixth-rank little secretary, and he is not qualified at all.
Besides, he is still a castrator, how could he participate in such a big event?”
"The old minister also thinks this is the case!"
"Wei Chen agreed."
"Sixth-rank secretary, what's the virtue?"
“…”
Many courtiers stood out.
The empress's face was slightly cold, and the imperial edict was held in her hand by the eunuch in front of the hall.
Zhao Wujiang also stood out of the queue, Yun Danfeng walked forward, and glanced at the ministers:
"The emperor's words, how dare you question it?"
The ministers were silent and some people gritted their teeth.
The Minister of Rites' eyes were cold and he said in a deep voice:
"The old minister is not questioning the emperor, but questioning you, a little eunuch from the sixth rank!"
Zhao Wujiang knew that some things had to be tough, and he said loudly:
"I am the emperor's personal choice. I question me, just question the emperor's decision, for disloyalty!"
The Minister of Personnel's eyes widened angrily, but he was surrounded by Zhao Wujiang again.
"When the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, who are also the six ministries, you directly refute the Minister of Revenue without giving the Minister of Revenue at all, and ignore the friendship of colleagues, it is unrighteous!" Zhao Wujiang looked at the Minister of Personnel at the top and bottom:
"Your career has also been stepping into the position of Minister of Personnel step by step. At this moment, suppressing colleagues of the sixth rank and wanting to make their career more bumpy is unkind!"
The Minister of Personnel took a step back. He felt that Zhao Wujiang had finished speaking and many eyes were staring at him, including the Minister of Revenue, and those who had participated in the promotion assessment but failed.
"Just just now, the ministers were talking, and you questioned the emperor loudly, neither saying respectful words such as Qibing, nor bent down or bowed down to bow!" Zhao Wujiang's eyes glanced:
"If you are not respectful, you are unfilial!
What qualifications do you, a person who is unfaithful, filial, unkind and unrighteous, have you the right to question the emperor’s decisions and the person you have chosen?”
"You..." The Minister of Personnel was dry and he felt that someone from the court officials around him was ridiculing him.
He angrily said, "According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, no matter what you say, you are not qualified!"
"Bang!"
The eunuch in front of the palace waved the whip under the instruction of the empress, and the ministers gradually calmed down, and he spread out the imperial edict:
"The chief official was originally scheduled to be the secretary of the Secretariat and the young supervisor of the Secretariat. However, Lin Yu suddenly suffered from a serious illness and could not get sick. Therefore, the chief official was appointed by Zhao Wujiang, the acting secretary, and was given to him!"
The ministers were silent, and then there was an uproar. The acting secretary was young and the fourth rank was just under the provisions of the Daxia law.
Just right!
They were trembling in their hearts, understanding that this was just an excuse the emperor had found for Zhao Wujiang.
But it is precisely because of this that they are more and more shocked. How did the emperor value Zhao Wujiang and actually used such an excuse to force Zhao Wujiang to serve as the chief officer?
