Chapter 1337 Ruzi Niu
After the silent messenger handed over the letter, he stood respectfully and his eyes remained on Xu Jie's face.
When Xu Jie read the contents of the letter, he first looked shocked, and then he looked as heavy as water. Finally, he looked desolate. The face that had always collapsed in front of Mount Tai but did not change his color was wonderful.
It seemed that something had hit the soul hard. He put down the letter for a while and sighed slowly: "Since last year, they have already taken this move!"
At the end, he sighed again, and slowly closed his eyes helplessly. With his white haired temples, he added a bit of bleakness to his whole body.
The messenger looked at Xu Jie's abnormal reaction and asked with concern: "Master, are you okay?"
"It's okay!" Xu Jie raised his palm and waved it lightly, and said weakly: "You go to Yan's mansion and let Yan Ne go to the mansion tonight, saying that I have something to do to discuss with him!"
"Yes!" The messenger gave a respectful salute, but couldn't help but look at the mysterious letter, and then turned around and left in a hurry.
Xu Jie quickly packed up his mood, put the letter paper back into the envelope, and continued to write the memorial piled up on the desk. Originally, he had been enjoying the memorial to write the memorial, but today he felt a little bored.
Whether it was the news that Wu Shan took over as Minister of Personnel or the truth contained in Guangdong salt, he felt a little restless, and even felt that the position he was sitting in was threatened.
There are eight or nine out of ten things that are not satisfactory in life. I thought sitting in this position would make me rest assured, but now I have to be careful of the Jiangxi guys’ counterattack and worry about these latecomers who emerged.
Especially this emerged as Wu Shan, whom he always regarded as the biggest threat. Now that Wu Shan has served as the Minister of Personnel, why can't he replace him in the future?
It is also today that Xu Jie's land was not as close as the palace gate was locked. After quickly processing the memorials, he left Xiyuan and returned directly to his home.
There are talented people in the country who have emerged in the past, and they have been leading the way for hundreds of years.
The court of the Ming Dynasty was changing all the time. Although the former Minister of Personnel Guo Pu had already resigned, the former Minister of Revenue Wu Shan filled his vacancy, and this day was destined to belong to Wu Shan.
Wu Shan himself is a powerful court official. Now he serves as the Minister of Personnel, which is like a tiger with wings. Not to mention Dong Fen and Yan Ne, he can challenge Xu Jie directly.
The most important thing is that he was about to preside over the presidency of the Beijing officials, holding the power of life and death of all the officials in the capital, which naturally led many officials to choose to change their ranks and wanted to join him.
With the turmoil in Beijing, the Beijing Inspection in Nanjing went smoothly.
The inspection of the Nanjing Ministry of Personnel and the Censorate of the Censorate resulted in the results: the two doctors of the Ministry of Personnel, including Xie Feng, were not careful, the thirty-one people were dismissed from being indifferent, the Ministry of Revenue's member Xu Boxiang was impetuous and shallow, the right senator of the Tongzheng Department, Tang Rixin and other thirteen people were not as capable as possible, and the Ministry of Revenue's doctor Huang Chaopin and other thirteen people were old and sick.
Now if they don’t want to follow the footsteps of those unlucky guys, they have to do everything possible to leave a good impression on Wu Shan and successfully avoid this disaster once every six years.
"This is my adult gift list!"
"My adults will hold a banquet tomorrow, this is a post!"
"The lower official and Shangshu Wu are cousins, so I'm here to ask for a meeting!"
...
After learning that Wu Shan had become the Minister of Personnel, he rushed to the Wu Mansion, rushing to give gifts, banquets or requests for meetings, which made Butler Wu so busy that he couldn't find the North.
"Daughter has met Daddy!"
Wu Qiuyu was dressed in the outfit of an imperial decree, and her whole body became more and more masculine, and she looked decently to greet her and politely said.
After Wu Shan explained some work to the Ministry of Revenue, he understood the plan to go to the Ministry of Personnel to take office. However, he came back but couldn't see his wife. He asked in confusion: "Where is your mother?"
"When I say to my father, my mother is talking to Mrs. Yang and the others, and now I can't leave for a while, so my daughter comes out to greet my mother!" Wu Qiuyu gave another gift, and her beautiful eyes filled with joy.
Now that her father is serving as the Minister of Personnel, her family is more glorious than before. My mother is very happy today, and she is also happy for her mother and father.
"Yeah!" Wu Shan nodded gently, and planned to walk towards the back garden.
Wu Qiuyu reminded him: "Dad, many maids from the imperial decree have come to visit their mother today. The mother took them to the back garden to entertain, and even my husband could only hide in the study!"
When Wu Shan learned that his son-in-law was also here, he was slightly surprised and turned to the study.
After passing through Jingya's yard, he looked at the door of the study open, and then walked directly into the study, but saw Lin Weiran dressed in a scholar practicing calligraphy.
"The lies written by ink cannot conceal the facts written by blood!"
"If you don't explode in silence, you will perish in silence!"
"In fact, there is no way in the world, and as many people walk, it becomes a way!"
...
Before Wu Shan arrived at the desk, he saw Lin Weiran like a graffiti here, sometimes writing in a straightforward manner, sometimes looking extremely arrogant, and the content was some strange words.
"I have met my father-in-law, congratulations to my father-in-law on his high position as the Prime Minister!" Lin Junran suddenly discovered that Wu Shan was coming, and immediately put down the pen in his hand and saluted respectfully.
Wu Shan knew that the son-in-law's poems were amazing, so he picked up one from the scattered paper and asked casually: "Why did you run here if you are not staying in Shuntian Prefecture?"
"The son-in-law can't sit still!" Lin Qingran replied honestly.
Wu Shan nodded gently, but understood Lin Xuran's restlessness today. He just looked at the content on the paper and shook his head and said disappointedly: "I thought there would be something amazing, but it turned out to be nonsense!"
Lin Weiran heard the famous saying of Lu and received this evaluation, and couldn't help but smile bitterly on his face.
Wu Shan suddenly let out a "ah" sound, but picked up one, and said in surprise: "You wrote this?"
"That's right!" Lin Weiran glanced at the content above and touched his nose awkwardly and replied.
"I am cold in my eyes and pointed at thousands of men, and I am willing to be a child's ox!" Wu Shan read it carefully, and then he became a literati's fault. He immediately analyzed it: "This thousand-man's ox is probably talking about those censors, right? The Ruzi Niu comes from "Zuo Zhuan" and has the intention of spoiling children too much. Combined with the love of the people like a child in the Book of Rites, he refers to the people, right?"
"Everything can't escape the wise eyes of my father-in-law. My son-in-law is deeply impressed!" Lin Qingran said in a compliment.
