Yan Shifan finished speaking and shouted again: "What are you doing in a stand-alone way? Drinking!"

The officials exchanged their eyes, picked up their wine glasses, and sighed helplessly. They continued to enjoy these excellent dishes and wines. As for what happened later, they could only take one step at a time.

Even if Yan Shifan really wanted to "make a fuss", their group of people had to act on their own terms and mobilize all forces to force Guo Pu down from the throne of the Minister of Personnel.

Yan Shifan drank the wine in his glass and saw everyone's reactions, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. The reason why he made this happen with great fanfare seemed to be an arrogant move, but in fact it had a deep meaning.

As night fell, lights lit up throughout Beijing.

Some people have said that the brighter the lights of the night, the more prosperous the city is. In this Beijing city, except for the supreme Western Garden, is the Prime Minister's Mansion of Xiaoyong.

Yan's mansion was rebuilt on the basis of several large mansions. Each courtyard is brightly lit. Those beautifully dressed maids walking in it with fruit trays, highlighting the prosperity here.

The courtyard where Yan Song lives is ordinary, not too luxurious, everything looks very ordinary. Apart from the top sandalwood floating in the air, the inside of the study room looks very ordinary, not too much like the study room of ordinary people

Big difference.

"I've met Lord Yuanfu!"

Guo Pu came as promised. Although he was the Minister of Personnel and was deeply trusted by the emperor, he still maintained a respectful attitude towards the old prime minister and politely politely.

Yan Mu came to Yan Song and followed him, and gently reminded him. Yan Song, who was fighting, then raised his head blankly, then raised his thin palm and said, "Oh, I was sleepy again after this moment! Husband, please sit down.

Bar!"

As his body grew older, especially Ouyang Shuduan's sudden death last year, Yan Song's body was getting worse and worse, and many things seemed to be unable to do so.

"Mr. Xie Yuanfu!" Guo Pu saluted respectfully again and sat down on the chair next to him.

Guo Pu is in his early fifties this year and is considered very old in the eyes of ordinary people, but in this officialdom, especially in front of Yan Song, he undoubtedly seems very young.

Yan Song took the strong tea handed over by Yan Mu, took a sip and cheered up, and then said slowly: "I want to come here today! First, I want to see you and want to know if I have encountered any difficult things recently. Second,

I have read your list of officials in the offensive, but I have some doubts in my heart. What are your criteria for evaluating officials in the offensive?”

"Mr. Xie Yuanfu cares, everything is fine recently! As for the criteria for selecting officials for external inspectors, the officials are grateful to the emperor and the expectations of Master Yuanfu, and do not dare to act favoritism and treat all officials equally! Assessment of local officials,

Those with virtue are superior, those who lose virtue are inferior; those who are capable are superior, and those who are incompetent are inferior." Guo Pu seemed very straightforward and replied jokingly.

In fact, during this external inspection, he ruled against many elderly local officials, but he did not mention this in person when facing Yan Song, who was already 83 years old.

Yan Song continued to taste tea without comment and suddenly asked: "Yang Chi, deputy envoy of Jiangxi Censor and Sun Sihui, the prefect of Yuanzhou, Jiangxi, what do you think of these two people?"

It is said that people become erections, which is undoubtedly a clever temptation.

Yan Shifan, who had just arrived, was about to step over the threshold from outside, but after hearing the question from his father, the one-eyed one-eyed looked at Guo Pu who was sitting on the stool with a sharp eye.

Guo Pu was a Jinshi in the 14th year of Jiajing. He entered the Hanlin Academy as a Shuji scholar. He followed Xia Yan to the capital for nine years and had a teacher-student relationship. He undoubtedly had hostility towards the Yan family’s father and son.

The same is true. He is naturally hostile to the Yan Dang. Or it is precisely because of this that when the emperor considered the new candidate for the Minister of Personnel, Guo Pu, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, was unexpectedly elected.

During this external investigation, Guo Pu took the initiative to attack the Yan Party, as fierce as Li Mo back then.

Yan Song did not choose to face the challenge immediately, but called Supu over and bargained.

If Guo Pu and Li Mo were like Li Mo back then, there would be no room for bargaining, then the two sides could only fight to the end. But if Guo Pu knew how to negotiate, the two sides would undoubtedly have room for negotiation.

Nowadays, a multiple-choice question has been placed in front of Guo Pu, allowing him to make a choice from it, or to show his true attitude towards the ruling party.

"These two people have been in office for six years, but they have made no achievements during their term of office. They are mediocre people, so the lower officials think it is not appropriate to use it anymore!" Guo Pu thought for a little while and answered seriously.

Huh?

Yan Shifan's eyes narrowed slightly, looked at Guo Pu deeply, and a fire had already quietly arose in his heart. He decided to use all his strength to destroy the ignorant Minister of Personnel.

Although after destroying Guo Pu, it would definitely not be their members of the Yan Party who took over as Minister of Personnel, and the emperor would definitely choose another person.

But looking at the court and the country, there are not many officials who have the courage to follow them and the strict party to deal with each other, and the new Minister of Personnel must be more sleeker than this stinky and hard Guo Pu.

"As far as I know, although these two people have no dazzling achievements, they have always been safe in their work. They have made military achievements in the rebellion of Jiangxi miners last year. These two people are not mediocre people!" Yan Song patiently and slowed down

He spoke slowly.

The problem is thrown back to Samu again, either by insisting on doing it alone or choosing to give in.

Yan Mu took the teacup handed back by Yan Song, carefully placed it on the table, and at the same time, he glanced at Guo Pu with the light of his eyes, but sighed sadly in his heart.

If Wu Peng was still the Minister of Personnel, things would not have become so complicated. They only need to make a list here, and Wu Peng would follow the rules and everything would be orderly.

But now the emperor has already become suspicious and intends to criticize them for strictly enhancing the party and prevent them from continuing to expand.

"This time, the officials were in prison, and these two were good talents! After the officials returned, they would re-prepare a list and submit it to Lord Yuanfu for approval!" Guo Pu chose to give in and salute respectfully.

He is in the officialdom and meets the emperor from time to time, which makes him wear a mask on his face all year round. No matter what he faces, his face can always remain calm. Now, he doesn't know that he is to Yan Song.

The enemy is a friend.

As soon as these words were spoken, the turbid air suppressed in the study was swept away.

"Guo Pu, Deputy Envoy of Jiangxi Censor Yang, arranged to serve as the governor of Guangdong in Guangdong, and Sun Sihui, the governor of Yuanzhou in Jiangxi, was transferred to Guangdong as the deputy envoy of Guangdong Supervision and Deputy Envoy of Guangdong's Haidao! In addition, Wang Bai, the left governor of Guangdong, was transferred to Guangdong as the deputy envoy of Guangdong's Haidao!

Let's go to another place!" Yan Shifan showed a smug smile on his face, and immediately walked in and said casually.

Guo Pu and Yan Shifan are old acquaintances, and have long been accustomed to Yan Shifan's arrogant arrogance. He glanced at Yan Song again and immediately agreed, "Since it is recommended by Minister Yan, he must be a good talent, and the official position is determined.

Will arrange it!"

A big fight that was originally about to be tense disappeared invisible at a moment.
Chapter completed!
