Why is there another imperial edict?

As Huang Jin walked out from outside, the officials present couldn't help but were stunned, looking at the ceremonial director holding the imperial edict with doubts.

Huang Jin led the two young eunuchs straight through the hall. All the officials gave way, and the entire main hall became silent.

Huh? Are there any rewards?

Many officials noticed that the two young eunuchs were holding trays in their hands, and they were even more confused, but they did not understand what was going on.

Huang Jin came to the top of the main hall and stood there, his eyes slowly scanning the officials present.

All the officials waited with bated breath. Some officials with whimsical hopes that this happiness would fall on their heads, and those with self-awareness were simply curious about whose head this imperial edict would fall.

When Huang Jin appeared holding the imperial edict, the conversation between Wu Shan and Yan Ne was naturally interrupted.

Wu Shan was not willing to pay attention to such an aggressive Yan Ne. At this time, he followed everyone and focused their attention on Huang Jin, also curious about what this imperial edict was about.

Yan Ne watched as Wu Shan diverted his attention. Naturally, he could no longer be entangled with Wu Shan. He also looked at Huang Jin who was holding the imperial edict in confusion.

There were six ministers, ministers, and chiefs of various central government offices present. No matter who was issued an imperial edict, it didn't seem too bizarre.

After Huang Jin's eyes swept over the officials, he finally set his eyes here.

Lin Haoran felt that Huang Jin was clearly looking at him, and immediately thought of a certain possibility, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated and beat violently.

Huang Jin did not keep the officials waiting for too long, and said with a smile on his face: "Wu Shangshu, come forward to receive the order!"

Ah? Wu Shangshu?

When they heard this answer, everyone's eyes widened and they turned to look at Wu Shan, the Minister of Civil Affairs who had just been picked on by Yan Ne.

Suddenly, all the officials' eyes were focused on Wu Shan, and most of the officials' eyes were full of envy.

this……

Yan Ne never expected that this imperial edict was actually directed at Wu Shan, and he looked at Wu Shan in an extremely complicated manner.

"The Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs welcomes the decree, long live my emperor!"

Wu Shan ignored everyone's surprised or envious looks and walked directly to Huang Jin. His face was as serious as ever, and he knelt down and said.

Officials including Xu Jie also stood behind Wu Shan in an orderly manner, knelt down with Wu Shan to receive the order, and shouted "Long live" again.

However, facing this sudden imperial edict, all the officials were in a state of confusion and were very curious about what kind of edict this would be.

Lin Haoran's mind was running rapidly, considering various possibilities. The only thing that was certain was that this should be a good edict that could even pull them out of the quagmire.

Huang Jin spread out the bright yellow imperial edict, cleared his throat first, and then read loudly to the officials in front of him: "The emperor is destined to be transported by heaven, and the edict says: Wu Shan, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, is an honest official, and he is fair and selfless in his affairs... He is very worthy of it."

In my heart, I am now conferring the title of Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion. I am specially summoned to the pavilion to handle errands. I am bestowing you with a python suit and a jade belt. I appreciate this!"

The sound was the same as usual, but the weight was extraordinarily astonishing.

The emperor granted him robes, which was an extremely rare honor for officials and ministers. Jiajing was not too keen on granting robes, so the gift of robes showed that rare things are more valuable.

As for the python suit, it is the highest honor for an official. Currently, only Xu Jie, the chief assistant, has it.

Give a python suit to the pavilion!

When the officials heard this holy message, their eyes immediately widened, and their faces looked extremely shocked as they looked at Wu Shan, who was kneeling at the front. This was a comeback against the odds.

how so?

Due to his status, Yan Ne knelt behind Wu Shan's buttocks. At this moment, his whole body felt as if he had been struck by lightning, with an expression of disbelief on his face. His eyes were filled with shock as he looked at the imperial edict and the gifts beside him.

Even though he has a pockmarked face, he has already reached this point and naturally has expectations for the throne of chief minister. But unfortunately, fireworks are easy to get cold and personnel are easy to divide.

If it was just him and Li Chunfang who entered the cabinet, then he would naturally be the second assistant and become the successor to the next chief assistant. However, Wu Shan joined the cabinet immediately, and he could only help the other party in terms of seniority. In the future,

The cabinet naturally respects Wu Shan.

This special person's treatment is not ordinary. This time, he was given a python suit to join the cabinet, which is enough to show the importance the emperor attaches to him, and it also confirms his status as the second assistant in the cabinet.

Just now he was the second assistant of the Ming Dynasty, but in less than a minute, he was already the second assistant and fell to the rank of ordinary pavilion elder. This is undoubtedly a big psychological gap.

The Holy Will is unpredictable!

When Xu Jie heard this result, he sighed lightly in his heart.

This time, he was indeed too hasty. Although he took action to get rid of Dong Fen, the conspiracy theory that Dong Fen threw out on the spot made the emperor who had not been doing much recently become wary, but he suddenly took action to support Wu Shan.

Wu Shan was too regular in his work. Although he did not annoy the emperor, he did not like him too much. However, Wu Shan took advantage of what he thought was a shrewd plan.

Now, although he has successfully prevented Dong Fen from ascending to the throne of the second assistant, the person sitting in this position is still not Yan Na, but Wu Shan, a powerful enemy who is more difficult to deal with than Dong Fen.

God will not fail me!

Lin Haoran clenched his fists hard, and felt an indescribable excitement in his heart.

When he decided to fully support Dong Fen, he really wanted to promote Dong Fen to the position of second-in-command, thereby forming a new "Wu-Zhejiang Alliance" to dismantle the dominance of Xu Dang and his family.

However, he also knew that Xu Dang was strong and Dong Fen had poor self-discipline, so he secretly observed Xu Dang's movements. Therefore, he had already known about Ouyang Yijing's attack on Dong Fen just now.

The reason why Dong Fen was not summoned in advance was because he wanted to make a new bet. Once Dong Fen was overthrown, Yan Na and Li Chunfang would naturally be the ones to be promoted, but the emperor probably preferred to use the usual power balancing technique.

What happened unexpectedly was that I thought the most likely possibility was that Jiajing would choose his father-in-law and Yan Ne to join the cabinet, but I didn't expect that Jiajing would simply call the three of them into the cabinet at the same time.

"Your Majesty Wu Shan accepts the decree, long live my emperor!"

Wu Shan's face was slightly moved, but he still remained calm and accepted the order to thank him.

He was originally an ordinary scholar in Jiangxi Province. He went to the capital to gain fame and became a high school beauty in the 14th year of Jiajing.

The glory of the past soon returned to his peaceful career in officialdom. He started out as an editor in the Hanlin Academy, and after thirty years of ups and downs in officialdom, he finally reached the stage of being a senior official.

All the officials also bowed and knelt down in a proper manner and shouted long live the song again, but their hearts were full of joy or sadness. The situation in the court had changed again.

After Huang Jin issued the imperial edict, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he cordially congratulated Wu Shan, whose daughter-in-law became a mother-in-law: "Congratulations to Wu Ge on his old age!"

Huh?

When the officials heard this title, they couldn't help but think of the controversy just now, but they all turned their attention to Wu Shan.

"Thank you, Eunuch Huang. I'm just waiting for you to thank the saint, offer sacrifices to the saint, and start your duties. Then I will call you Mr. Ge." Wu Shan hesitated for a moment and responded seriously.
