Chapter 115: Clear Stream
"Slow." A minister in the front row came out and said: "Your Majesty clearly understands that Lord Zhao's daughter was married yesterday. Liang Yuanyu, the son of Liang Hong, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War, is actually a married woman. How can he be included in the palace?"
He did not mention the fact that the Manchu and Han were not intermarried. Wu Shaofu had already made an excuse for the emperor to violate the ancestral system. Even if he proposed it, it would be just a dispute between two groups of people, which was meaningless.
"Your Majesty, this person is Grand Secretary Ji Yun and Ji Xiaolan, the leader in Qingliu, and has a good reputation." Before Chen Sheng could ask, Li Yu beside him whispered.
Chen Shengzheng wondered whether his intention to be a fool is not obvious enough, so why would anyone dare to stand up and oppose it?
It turned out to be Ji Xiaolan, which is not surprising. It is understandable that loyal ministers and honest officials are not afraid of death.
Judging from his appearance, this world should not involve the plot of "Iron-Toothed and Bronze Teethed Ji Xiaolan", so there is no need to give him face. Anyway, he can't sleep with Mo Chou and Du Xiaoyue.
It’s just that it’s not easy to find a reason to deal with him. It’s not easy to do something like stealing someone’s wife. The engagement between Liang and Zhao families was made public, and Chen Sheng was not good at forcing him.
"What happened?" Frowning and thinking for a moment, Chen Sheng pretended to be angry and said, "Heshen, you are so brave. Why didn't you mention the engagement when you recommend this woman to me? If you deceive the emperor like this, you will almost be injustice. What should you blame me?"
Heshen looked confused. What did this matter have to do with him? He has never even said a word since he went to court. Why did he deceive the emperor?
Heshen was quite happy to see Chen Sheng suppress Qingliu.
Especially when Ji Xiaolan, who had a feud with him, stood up, Heshen was even more determined to watch the show, so he waited for Chen Sheng to get up and clean up Ji Xiaolan.
Unexpectedly, Chen Sheng threw his temper on his head.
"No..."
"Hmm?" Chen Sheng sneered and interrupted, "Think clearly before replying."
Heshen swallowed the words back to his mouth. He had some understanding of Chen Sheng's temperament. He really turned his back on his face. It was not surprising that someone would cut him off.
"I didn't... I didn't lie, it was Lord Ji who made a mistake. The one who married the Liang family was Lord Zhao's eldest daughter Zhao Xianglan. Zhao Xiangyi is the second daughter. Now she is in the boudoir and has no engagement." Heshen talked nonsense, then asked Zhao Kang: "My Lord Zhao, what I said is right?"
"Yes, that's exactly that, that's exactly that." Zhao Kang said hurriedly.
"You...you...shamed, the Zhao family has only one daughter, how can you say that you have two daughters? In order to flatter the emperor, you have made up such a ridiculous reason. It is extremely shameless." Ji Xiaolan saw the two of them talking lies with their eyes open, and cursed in anger.
"Mr. Ji, this is yours. How can you slander others casually? The Zhao family has several daughters. Do you know better than Master Zhao, a father?" Heshen retorted.
"Mr. Ji doesn't know that the lower officials do have two daughters. However, Xianglan likes quietness and rarely leaves the palace. It is difficult for outsiders to see it. It is normal that Lord Ji has never heard of it." Zhao Kang also said.
"Shameless! You two treacherous villains, you are flattering, and have no integrity. Such a shameless person is actually in line with the court. Ji Yun is ashamed to be the same as you are the ministers." Ji Xiaolan cursed.
"Where is the place to please you, Ji Xiaolan..."
"Mr. Ji..."
"Treacherous! You..."
"How can you be so arrogant in the court? " Chen Sheng scolded, and when the three of them calmed down, he said: "I will make a judgment on right and wrong. Where is Liang Hong, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War? Tell me, is your Liang family bride Zhao Xianglan or Zhao Xiangyi?"
After Chen Sheng finished speaking, he heard a minister following reply: "Long live the Liang Mansion, an explosion occurred last night. Lord Liang was seriously injured and was recuperating at home. He did not attend court this morning."
Explosion? It's not the golden gun.
The father and son of the Liang family are really in love. There was such a big mess at the wedding banquet yesterday, and the bride ran away. She was still interested in playing with a gizmo gun at night, so they deserved to be bombed.
Chen Sheng originally thought that Liang Hong was a corrupt official and he must have no moral integrity. He just happened to pull him out to testify, but now it seems that there is no chance.
"Liang Qing was injured and recuperated, but no one could be responsible for the errands of the Ministry of War. Let's do this, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue..." Chen Sheng paused and glanced at Li Yu.
"Shizhong Ruan." Li Yu whispered.
Chen Sheng continued: "Ruan Shizhong, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was transferred to the Ministry of War and took over Liang Hong's errand. The vacant left assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was promoted to Zhao Kang."
"I obey the order." Ruan Shizhong replied.
"I will devote all my efforts to thank the Lord for your kindness, and I will live up to your appreciation." Zhao Kang said ecstatically.
The little fifth-rank doctor was directly promoted to the second-rank assistant minister, and was promoted to the fifth level in a row.
This is a good thing that Zhao Kang dared not even dream of, but it actually happened.
A daughter exchanged for the official position of a second-rank official, which is worth it, too worth it.
Unfortunately, my wife was not good enough and she didn't have many more children back then.
"Long live, Zhao Kang, a lucky villain, how can he be promoted to the important position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue? If he can be promoted to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue just because his daughter is born well, wouldn't it be ridiculous? This example cannot be opened, and this wind cannot grow, long live." Ji Xiaolan said in pain.
"Long live and think twice." A group of court officials followed and opposed.
"I have decided, so you don't need to say much." Chen Sheng said unmoved.
The atmosphere of selling women for honor is of course better than having great strengths. If all the civil and military officials in the court have tried their best to give him a woman, wouldn’t Chen Sheng have a happy life in the future?
"Your Majesty has his own plans for appointing court officials. It's not your turn to talk too much." Heshen said, "Mr. Zhao has been working in the Ministry of Revenue for many years and has been working hard. He is a rare capable minister in the court. Your Majesty has promoted it out loud, which is a wise eye to recognize you. What is your intention to gather people to oppose it? The Holy Emperor is in court and cannot tolerate you to form a clique for personal gain and suppress dissidents."
"You...you..." Ji Xiaolan was so angry that her chest hurt and she couldn't speak. At the same time, she also understood in her heart that the tyrant monarch and treacherous ministers were in a state of irritability. No matter how much he said, no matter how reasonable it was, it would be useless.
"My memory Ji Yun, please resign, I hope your majesty will be right." Ji Xiaolan was discouraged and wanted to leave and took off her head.
"Accurate." Chen Sheng said happily.
Ji Xiaolan resigned from his post because of sincerity, but he also used this to remind Chen Sheng.
However, seeing Chen Sheng's approval so happily and not even trying to keep him, Ji Xiaolan gave up completely, stopped illusions, put down her top, took off her official uniform, and walked out in a desolate manner.
"My Me Ma Yutang, please resign."
"My minister Xiahou Gui, please resign."
"minister..."
"It's accurate, it's accurate." Chen Sheng waved his hand like a flies, "Who else wants to resign? Come forward, I'll be sure."
They wanted to threaten Chen Sheng by resigning from office. These people were really thinking too much. Chen Sheng wanted them to get away.
Ji Xiaolan is a good person. A large number of Qingliu officials followed him to resign. Chen Sheng's ears will be much more purified in the future.
As for the vacant official positions, don’t worry, just look at whose daughter sent to you, and then slowly promote it.
