Shen Shixing Sanya returned home.

I saw that my son Shen Yongmao happened to be back.

Shen Shixing has two sons, Shen Yongmao is his eldest son, and his second son Shen Yongjia is still just a scholar now.

"Maoer, come to the study with your father."

"Oh, I got it, dad."

Shen Shixing greeted his son and went back to the study and sat down.

Shen Yongmao changed into a dress and sat down at his father's instructions.

"How is the Ministry of Justice's recent study on politics?"

"Dad, isn't it the same?" Shen Yongmao replied like this with a little emotion.

Shen Shixing is a sensible person, and of course he knows where his son's two little emotions come from.

First, shortly after his son became a Jinshi, he was impeached by the censor Wei Yunzhen, saying that the reason why his son was able to win was due to his father's power.

Although Emperor Wanli did not pursue the matter at that time, all the ministers in the court knew about this.

So my son was so angry that he felt a little uncomfortable wherever he went.

The son's second little emotion came from his father. Although the son did not mutter in front of him, the son told his son his mother. He said that he was the chief minister and that his son was just a political observer.

When his son passed the Jinshi, he ranked second and twenty-first, which was actually not low. He didn't even get into the Hanlin Academy, and he didn't get any Shujishi.

My son blamed him for being ineffective.

He knew that the two little emotions in his son's heart had not been resolved, so he sometimes showed two negative points in his position of observing politics.

If you say that my son is not young, twenty-five years old, he is older than Wang Heng, Zhang Yunxiu and Zhang Jingxiu.

Those three are not Jinshi, but which one of them has a better position than his son? Speaking of which, he was the chief assistant of the dynasty, Zhang Juzheng was just outdated, and Wang Xijue's turn was not yet available.

As a result, his son was just an unknown Ministry of Justice. Not to mention that his son felt frustrated, he often thought that it was not the case.

Seeing that his son's emotions were getting up again, Shen Shixing didn't turn around and said straight to the point: "Your Majesty has talked to me today and decided to be promoted to your official position."

"Is that true?" Shen Yongmao immediately smiled and asked impatiently, "What official do you want to promote me to?"

"The Ministry of War Department's Office of Fang."

"Really?" Shen Yongmao's eyes lit up.

Although it seems that the position of Fang of the Ministry of War is not a particularly popular position, it is still at the level of a minister.

From being promoted to this position by admiring politics, under normal circumstances, it is impossible to get it in less than ten years.

"Can Dad still lie to you?" Seeing that his son was happy, Shen Shixing was also happy, which was rare!

"Dad, why did Your Majesty suddenly make this decision?"

"Your Majesty is as imaginary as a god. You know you are frustrated, and you know your father is frustrated." Shen Shixing explained with a sigh, and suddenly he became serious again, "But there is something, Dad needs to inform you in advance."

"Dad, please tell me."

"Your Majesty said that the two things are actually irrelevant, but I have no choice but to come together. It is one thing to promote you to a doctor in the Ministry of War. It is another thing to buy you a house in the capital No. 1, which your Majesty invests."

"..." Shen Yongmao's expression suddenly froze, "What does Dad mean? Did Your Majesty agree to promote the child to his or her position in the No. 1 capital? "

"I told you that two things have nothing to do with each other. Buying a house is buying a house, and promotion is promotion."

"But why did my father say it together? If you don't go up early or late, why should you get promoted to a child when you buy a house? Even if it doesn't matter, others will say it's related. Wouldn't the child take the blame again?"

Shen Yongmao looked refusal.

So he didn't even ask what the housing price in Capital No. 1 was, and then he added anger: "If this is the case, then the child would rather not be the official."

"Don't be irritated!" Shen Shixing said, "If you are promoted or not, we have to buy this house."

"Dad, the child who bought a house does not object, and the child who bought the house No. 1, the capital invested by His Majesty, does not object. It is even more delightful to promote the child, but the child does not understand why he puts the two things together? Isn't this clearly leaving a verbal excuse?"

"Don't be anxious, Mao'er!" Shen Shixing comforted him very much. "To be honest, my father thought so at first, because the housing price of No. 1, the capital invested by His Majesty is very high, as if it was the position he bought for Mao'er by his father."

"Not?"

"Of course not." Shen Shixing blurted out and then explained, "Dad later calmed down and thought that in order to show his support for His Majesty, Dad must buy the house he invested in, and he must take the lead."

"How much does a house cost?"

"Fifteen thousand taels per set."

Shen Yongmao opened his mouth wide, "Isn't your Majesty buying and selling with all your might?"

Shen Shixing's face darkened and he scolded: "Maoer, how did you speak?"

"What the child said is the truth."

"Your Majesty has such a far-sighted vision? It's not within our reach. He said that the house is worth the price, not to mention the price of 150,000, even if it is priced at 250,000, will you have to buy it?"

"Hey!" Shen Yongmao shook his head and sighed, "Everyone said that Your Majesty is wise, and according to the child, it's not very good."

"Maoer, how can you say this nonsense?" Shen Shixing almost shouted, "How much do you know about Your Majesty? Ah? Have you ever had a friendship with Your Majesty? You are still too young!"

"No wonder the outside world says that my father is a peacemaker and easy to talk to." Shen Yongmao muttered in a low voice.

"Maoer, the people outside don't understand dad, but dad just laughed at me, but don't you understand dad?" Shen Shixing looked at his son with a sad expression.

Then he said, "Do you think the position of Chief Supervisor is easy to sit in? The emperor must be responsible to His Majesty, the emperor must be responsible to all civil and military officials, and he must always pretend to be the people in his heart. Maoer, what should I do if my father must take good care of both ends?"

Seeing that his father was in a state of emotion and was helpless, Shen Yongmao had to suppress his emotions and comforted his father in turn: "I know that it is not easy for my father to be in this position. If he is too strong, he may end up with the same fate as Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng; if he is weak, he will be given a slander."

"It's good that Maoer understands it."

"But Dad, these two things are linked together. People outside will not only say that the child has a good position because of his wealth and power at home, but will also blame him."

"Maybe the capital No. 1 invested by His Majesty is really worth 150,000 yuan, so why would everyone's mouth be blocked?"

"Dad believes that the house in Capital No. 1 is really worth 150,000 yuan? What a large area of ​​house you can buy with a 150,000 yuan!"

"..." Shen Shixing was silent. He couldn't believe it from the bottom of his heart, but he said so just comforted his son.

"Hey! If my father was not afraid of accusations, the child would have nothing to say." Shen Yongmao sighed deeply again.

"This matter is no longer a matter of fear or not, but must be done." Shen Shixing sighed, "You might as well tell Maoer that His Majesty has listed all the prominent, wealthy and powerful families in the capital, and then sent someone to join them to buy a house. The first name on this list is Dad. Perhaps His Majesty considered that his father was the chief minister, so he decided to communicate with me in person. Maoer, you said, can you still refuse to buy a house?"

Shen Yongmao shook his head and murmured: "It's really surprising to say that Your Majesty's actions are very different from ordinary people's way of thinking."

"Maoer may not know anything. Your Majesty's final results are surprisingly good every time he unexpectedly shows! This is the most admirable thing about Your Majesty."

"Hey! His Majesty was going to promote the child, but I don't know how happy he was, but after Dad said this, the child seemed to be unable to be happy again."

"Maoer, don't think so much. It's useless to think too much. Your Majesty has entrusted it with an important task. Just do it well."

"Dad, but I don't think the position of Fangshu is very important!"

"Look, my dad said you are still young and don't care about the dynamics of the dynasty. Why is the position of Fangshang of the Ministry of War not important? Your Majesty deliberately emphasized that I, the Ming Dynasty, must clarify the boundaries of the four directions, and maps are a good job. This work is not easy. My Ming Dynasty is vast, and the Nuergandus alone has six million square kilometers of land. Do you have to clearly draw every boundary? There is also the southeast coast. Think about it, how complicated is it?"

After saying this, Shen Yongmao didn't dare to talk to him.
