The ceremony of conferring the title of two kings together was like a depth charge, exploding all the careerists, big and small, lurking in the capital at once.

Zhu Changluo watched this farce with cold eyes, because Zhu Changluo did not think that the ceremony of conferring the title of two kings could be completed smoothly. In his opinion, this farce was just an alternative struggle for power between civil servants, which had nothing to do with the previous political struggle.

It's just two things. If Emperor Wanli can make good use of it, maybe he can reverse the passive situation and put him in an active position.

However, according to Zhu Changluo's understanding of Emperor Wanli, Emperor Wanli would probably end up equaling Wang Xijue.

But can Wang Xijue do it?

The answer is definitely no.

Wang Xijue seems to be in a good position now, but in fact he is walking on thin ice. If he manages such a major political event, he will become the target of public criticism.

If Wang Xijue had a deep foundation, that would be okay.

It's a pity that right now, behind him are the Emperor Wanli who can only lie down and a group of fledgling Hanlin scholars.

The fighting enthusiasm of this group of Hanlin scholars is commendable, but their fighting experience is far inferior to that of the professional talkers from the Supervisory Academy, as well as their fighting qualities and strategies and tactics.

When the censors and officials of the Inspectorate are full of anger, even the gods may not be able to stop them, and even if they can stop them for a while, they will not be able to stop them forever.

And judging from the past performance of the Inspectorate, any opponent who can withstand it for a while will die in the end. Only the justice represented by the Censors can last forever!

Therefore, when the censors of the Supervisory Council began to turn their guns and attack the two kings directly, Hanlin Jinshi and others suddenly found that they were short of words... they could only say a few words of rebuttal over and over again, but

, the censors of the Inspectorate are different. They come up with new words every day and come up with new tricks every time.

Gradually, the Jinshi of the Hanlin Academy were no longer able to be punished.

Wang Xijue also gradually felt that the pressure was increasing. He longed for Emperor Wanli to stand up and cheer him up at this time, but in the end, Emperor Wanli was still waiting expectantly for him to get things done.

Emperor Wanli didn't even move forward to make any effort, and now Wang Xijue was in trouble.

However, as a politician with rich experience in saving the city, although Wang Xijue could not suppress the rebuttal and criticism of the imperial censor, he still had the ability to stabilize the basic market.

Wang Xijue made wishes to Dong Qichang three times a day, trying hard to maintain Dong Qichang's strong fighting will and the rookie officials behind him who were eager to make contributions.

No matter what, they must continue to fight against the professional gossips of the Inspectorate, but they must not give in!

Once you give in, the consequences will be disastrous.

At this extremely critical moment, when Wang Xijue felt that he could hardly bear it anymore, as if nectar fell from the sky, a shocking reversal occurred.

Yang Wei, the Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, fell ill!

For Wang Xijue, who was struggling to support himself, this was nothing less than the sound of nature!

Yang Wei fell ill, and the position of Heavenly Official in the Ministry of Civil Affairs was naturally vacant.

For a time, both Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue's eyes were focused on the candidates for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

In their opinion, this war is now won by the one who wins the official position!

The position of the Minister of Civil Affairs is really important. This position directly controls the promotion of low-level officials and the recommendation of high-level officials. Being able to win this position is undoubtedly a strong adrenaline for the younger brothers behind him.

ah!

Why do you study hard for ten years to take the imperial examination?

The purpose is not just to get promoted and make a fortune, but bah, it’s to cultivate one’s moral character, regulate one’s family, govern the country and bring peace to the world!

If we had the special care from the officials, wouldn't it be possible to complete it faster?

Therefore, the ceremony of conferring the title of two kings was immediately shelved due to Yang Wei's illness.

Now both sides are looking for their own candidates to compete for this crucial position of official!

As the first assistant, Shen Shixing has a natural advantage. He can control the situation and recommend the candidates he likes.

Wang Xijue's advantage was that Emperor Wanli had equal information behind him, because Emperor Wanli had the right to veto! As long as Emperor Wanli did not approve, it would be in vain for Shen Shixing to recommend a hundred people.

Therefore, in this fierce recommendation process for the Minister of Civil Affairs, the two sides fought directly from the beginning. As long as it was recommended by the other side, the other side would definitely oppose it.

The quarrel went on like this for a month, and it was so noisy that even the street vendors in the capital began to talk about it, talking about the gossip they had heard from relatives and friends or made up by themselves:

So-and-so is the new minister of official affairs.

However, what I didn't expect was that in the end, the official from the Ministry of Civil Affairs turned out to be someone recommended by Xu Guo.

This is really incredible!

Because although Xu Guo is old, his ranking in the cabinet is not that high, and Xu Guo's opinions are almost never considered when recommending such an important position.

However, something was wrong this time. The person recommended by Xu Guo was actually recognized by people from both parties.

The candidate recommended by Xu Guo was Song Xun, the Minister of Household Affairs!

The reason why all parties reluctantly accepted it was because everyone felt that Song Xun was a good person. Therefore, after such a long turmoil, the issue of the Minister of Civil Affairs was finally resolved.

After seeing this result, Zhu Changluo couldn't help but sigh, "The inertia of history is really extraordinary. I tried my best to push, but in the end I still returned to the original track."

Historically, in the eighteenth year of Wanli, after Yang Wei became an official, Song Xun succeeded him. I thought everything was in chaos, but in the end, Song Xun succeeded him as the Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Under Zhu Changluo's careful arrangements, he guided the ceremony of conferring three kings together in history three years in advance and turned it into the ceremony of conferring two kings together. The reason why there is one less king is naturally because

Emperor Wanli still had a son who was unborn.

However, counting the time, it was almost time. After all, Concubine Zhou Duan began to be favored inexplicably.

The reason why he knew these gossips was not because Zhu Changluo asked Wei Zhongxian to investigate. After all, Zhu Changluo did not like to inquire about other people's sexual affairs. In the Forbidden City, he only followed one person, and that was Concubine Zheng.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo heard about Concubine Zhou Duan's favor from his mother-in-law, saying that Emperor Wanli didn't know what happened during these days. Concubine Zheng was not visiting Concubine Zheng so much that he suddenly fell in love with Concubine Zhou Duan.

Concubine Zhou Duan was summoned to sleep with her every day.

After Zhu Changluo heard this, he just said oh, after all, this matter will not delay the overall situation, so just let him go as he pleases.

However, he could not let it go so easily, so Zhu Changluo instructed Wei Zhongxian to quietly convey to Yikun Palace that Concubine Zhou Duan was favored and slept with her.

Let Concubine Zheng learn about the palace gossip in a timely manner and enter the Concubine mode in advance. Anyway, it will be lively, so that the pressure on his mother and concubine can be shared.

Because, Concubine Gong’s life has been a bit difficult during this period. Ever since she bumped into Concubine Zheng in Qianqing Palace, Concubine Zheng began to target Concubine Gong everywhere. After all, the Queen is not in good health now. The Queen Mother does not care about the affairs of the harem. So Concubine Zheng has the final say in this harem.
