Chapter 1068 Rumors
Wuyi Palace, value room.
Yan Song put the white Ganoderma lucidum back on the exquisite box and sighed softly: "Although this White Ganoderma lucidum is a rare thing, it took us so long to find it, and the Holy Spirit will definitely not be satisfied!"
"
Although he was old, he had been speculating on the Holy Emperor for more than thirty years. He didn't even need to use his brain to think, and he knew that if this thing was presented to the Emperor, he would definitely not be able to impress the Holy Emperor.
"Grandpa, what should we do?" Yan Hong believed his grandfather's judgment and asked worriedly.
Yan Song sighed lightly, shook his head and said helplessly: "The Holy One has already issued an order for all officials to present treasures. We can no longer delay it. I hope the Holy One can understand this time!"
It's not that he is unfaithful, but that the spiritual treasure is hard to find. From him, the chief minister, to the ordinary people below, everyone knows that offering treasures can get rewards, but in the past few decades, it can be said that the situation has been completely different.
Yan Hong saw Yan Song about to get up, and hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Yan Song up. Although he had an arrogant temper, he respected this grandfather from the bottom of his heart, and he wanted to serve him well.
The grandfather and grandson carried the essence box and left Wuyi Palace together, heading towards Wanshou Palace.
It was already dusk, and the setting sun was setting among the palaces, making the world look magnificent.
Huh?
On the way to the Wanshou Palace, Yan Hong saw a familiar figure from a distance, it was Lin Haoran, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture. Looking at him walking from the direction of the Wanshou Palace, he didn't know if he was blocked from the door or if he had already seen him.
Your Majesty.
In the past, he would not have taken the little fourth-grade official seriously at all. But after seeing Lin Haoran's skills and Lin Haoran's recent actions, he knew that this was an amazing person, even his grandfather.
It is certain that this person will enter the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister.
Yan Song is now old and will soon need Yan Hong's help to move forward. As Yan Hong suddenly froze on the spot, he noticed something strange and immediately asked: "Yan Hong, what's wrong?"
"Grandpa, I saw Lin Wenkui!" Yan Hong withdrew his gaze and said honestly.
"Is it him?" Yan Song's face immediately became solemn when he heard the news.
He had been in contact with Lin Haoran for a period of time in the cabinet, and he had a good impression of Lin Haoran. He was a very capable young man and very motivated, but he was too sharp these days.
Ordinarily, with Lin Haoran's age and official position, he should choose to stay dormant when he returns to Beijing this time to overcome the shortcomings of his qualifications. However, in order to protect the interests of Guangdong, Lin Haoran has repeatedly taken action, which is not a wise move.
Now this boy came to see the saint. He probably went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but he didn't know which song he wanted to sing.
"I have met Lord Yuanfu!"
Lin Haoran also saw Yan Song and his grandson. When they approached, he immediately stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"Haha... So it's Lin Wenkui, how are you doing lately?" Yan Song looked at Lin Haoran with a smile as if he were treating a junior.
Lin Haoran smiled slightly, saluted again and said, "Thank you, Lord Yuanfu, for caring about me! Thanks to Lord Yuanfu, everything is going well for me these days!"
"Haha... That's agreed!" Yan Song looked at Lin Haoran and nodded with satisfaction.
Lin Haoran knew that Yan Song had fallen out of favor. Seeing Yan Hong holding an exquisite box in his hand, he said respectfully and distantly: "Master Yuan Fu, you are presenting a treasure to the Holy One! I don't dare to disturb you, please!"
"It's not really a treasure, it's a white Ganoderma lucidum that Yan Shifan just found!" Yan Song said directly as if he was unpretentious.
Lin Haoran watched Yan Hong supporting Yan Song to leave, and suddenly his heart moved. He asked Yan Song seriously: "Master Yuan Fu, can you take a step to speak!"
Yan Hong frowned slightly, but Yan Song glanced at Lin Haoran with his cloudy eyes, and then nodded lightly.
In the blink of an eye, it's already mid-April.
The capital is the political center of the Ming Dynasty, and the most indispensable thing has always been gossip. Every day, all kinds of news are flying all over the sky, and they are all told in a convincing way, as if they have been seen with their own eyes, but a rumor can cause
It attracted widespread attention from the people in the north of the city.
The incident of Liu Ji offering white Ganoderma lucidum was quickly learned by everyone, and according to a palace insider who learned the inside story, the emperor will soon issue an order to restore Liu Ji to his original position, and Lin Haoran, who is most likely to take over as the governor of Shuntian Prefecture,
Will be transferred to Dali Temple as Shaoqing.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately aroused discussions among scholars and people in Beijing, but most of them were worried.
Shuntianfu Cheng and Dali Temple Shaoqing are both in the fourth rank, and both are the second-in-command of the yamen. If he is transferred from the simple Shuntianfu Cheng to Dali Temple as Shaoqing, this is undoubtedly a "promotion", but from acting as Shuntianfu
Yin's arrival as a young minister in Dali Temple was mostly interpreted as a "failure".
Because of this, many people think that if this rumor is true, Lin Haoran's promotion may not necessarily be a good thing.
"This can't be true, can it?"
"Why isn't it true? They even took out the white Ganoderma lucidum!"
"I'm not talking about Liu Ji's return, I'm talking about how could Lin Fuchen be transferred?"
"I'm afraid the superiors don't want our Shuntian Mansion Office to cause too much trouble, so they have no choice but to sacrifice Lin Fucheng!"
…
As this rumor spread in the Shuntian government office, everyone in the government office became worried. Although many people did not want to believe this rumor, many facts were already in front of them, so they had no choice but to believe it.
But this thing undoubtedly seems so cruel.
Many officials in the Shuntian government office have already staked their futures on Lin Haoran. Now that Lin Haoran has not only failed to take over as Shuntian government official, he will also be transferred out of the Shuntian government office. This is undoubtedly bad news for them.
Once Liu Ji returns and Lin Haoran is transferred out of the Shuntian government office, it will be difficult for them to form a team to deal with Liu Ji. By that time, let alone compete with Liu Ji, it will be good for them to be able to survive alone
Already.
Likewise, after the news spread, many of them felt as if the sky was falling, but Chen Tongpan and Sun Tongpan were very excited and even prepared to buy firecrackers to celebrate.
The officialdom is so ruthless. Once you get on the wrong team, your career may be ruined.
Just like back then, many officials chose to embrace the lap of Li Mo, the Minister of Li Mo, but Li Mo failed miserably, and Li Mo's remnants of the party were naturally liquidated. Wang Yongbin, the Minister of Rites, who originally had a bright career, was dismissed because he was too close to Li Mo.
He was transferred to Nanjing for retirement.
"Liu Ji is back!"
