The Son of Heaven, with the Constitution of Heaven in his mouth, makes the laws of the world in one word!
Even though the official family is still young, in accordance with the late emperor's edict, military and state affairs are temporarily handled by the Queen Mother.
But the official is still the emperor of the Song Dynasty, and everyone must take seriously what the official says.
In addition, the choice of Zu Shiheng is also very interesting.
Lu Yijian's current assignment is to have the power to know Kaifeng Mansion. Compared with later generations, he is probably equivalent to the top leader (secretary) of the capital. Going further, he serves as a general and becomes a prime minister, which is just for leisure.
And what about Zu Shiheng?
His current official (Jilu official) is a doctor of the Ministry of Rites. According to the Song Dynasty system, a doctor of the Ministry of Rites is the transferred official rank of civil servants. It is a later doctor, and the rank is from the fifth rank.
(Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry are in the back line, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Households are in the middle line, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel are in the front line, and officials are promoted from the back line to the middle line, and then to the front line)
Although Zu Shiheng's current official does not meet the conditions for the time being, the separation of the official and the dispatched officials of the state is on the one hand to follow the system of the previous dynasty, and on the other hand for promotion beyond the qualifications.
My official rank is slightly lower, which basically does not affect my appointment.
This is called flexible promotion!
Therefore, in terms of qualifications, Zu Shiheng barely met the standards for the selection of three ministers.
What surprised Lu Yijian the most was that Zu Shiheng was nominated, and Ding Wei could not recommend him as highly as before.
After all, Zu Shiheng was Ding Wei's man.
For Lu Yijian, the Third Secretary is dispensable. Even if he does not have the resume of the Third Secretary, it will not affect his promotion speed.
But for Zu Shiheng, it was different.
There are many Hanlin bachelors. Within the academy, in terms of qualifications, Zu Shiheng is not as good as Hanlin bachelor Li Wei, nor as good as Hanlin bachelors Liu Yun, Yan Shu and others.
Even Zu Shiheng couldn't compare with Li Shen.
If Ding Wei stopped Zu Shiheng, he would be suppressing his followers in a different direction.
There are so many ministers in the palace today, and it is certainly impossible to keep it completely secret. Once the news is leaked, what will Zu Shiheng think?
What will other followers think?
Once the people's hearts are lost, it will be difficult to lead the team.
Therefore, as soon as the officials proposed Zu Shiheng, Ding said that they could no longer push Lu Yijian forward.
Of course, Ding said that he had no good intentions in recommending Lu Yijian.
But everything has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the advantages and disadvantages may be great or small. Under the current circumstances, the benefits of forcibly promoting Lu Yijian are far greater than before.
As long as Ding Wei is not stupid, he will know what to do.
What happened next was just as Lu Yijian expected, and Ding Wei took the initiative to shut his mouth.
Off stage.
Lu Yijian glanced at the official sitting at the head without any trace, and there was some gratitude in his eyes.
Although I don’t know whether the officials did it intentionally or unintentionally, they did help him out.
He really didn't want to take on the hot potato of being the Third Secretary.
Seeing that Ding Wei lost his voice, Ding Wei's party also ceased its activities.
For a moment, Chengming Hall suddenly became quiet.
On the stage, Liu E glanced at the officials nearby with the corner of her eye, and she found that she couldn't see through her sixth brother.
When did this start?
It is a basic requirement for an emperor to be indifferent to emotions and anger. If Sixth Brother can do this, it is definitely a good thing for the empire.
But for her, it was extremely bad news.
'How should I deal with myself in the future?'
Continue to suppress the officials?
Judging from Sixth Brother's current performance, Sixth Brother will definitely be a qualified emperor in the future.
Sixth Brother is only thirteen years old this year. If nothing unexpected happens, Sixth Brother can still be in the number for at least ten years.
And what about yourself?
I am already over fifty this year and I am already old.
If you survive, you will definitely not be able to survive the official family.
If he continues to suppress him, how will the Liu family deal with it when the sixth brother takes charge in the future?
Liu E was not his biological son. Regarding this matter, Liu E never thought that he could hide it from him for the rest of his life.
It's easy for people to leave. Once they die, they will definitely not be able to hide the news from Sixth Brother.
Without the relationship between biological mother and son, he was forcing his sixth brother. At that time, no one knew what the official family would do.
Although the future is unknown, there are references in history.
In the past, the Lu family had great power. After Empress Lu died, what happened to the Lu family?
Liu E shuddered at the thought of this.
On the other side, Wang Zeng was thinking secretly, why did the officials propose Zu Shiheng to be the third envoy?
Is there any relationship between the official family and Zu Shiheng?
Immediately afterwards, Zu Shiheng's message flashed through Wang Zeng's mind. After pondering for a long time, Wang Zeng could not find the connection.
Although Zu Shiheng's father also served as an official, his father's position was not high and his family background was not prominent enough.
Moreover, his father died early.
Zu Shiheng's success was partly due to his own talent and mostly due to Li Zong'e's support.
Just when Wang Zeng was reviewing the official's remarks, Liu E's voice suddenly came to mind in the air.
"The candidates proposed by the officials are quite good. What do you think?"
After thinking for a while, Liu E felt that she needed to change her attitude towards officials and no longer be as coercive as before.
It is not impossible to give some power to the officials appropriately.
As long as the military and political power is still in your own hands, it is not unacceptable.
Among the ministers present, which one has not been in officialdom for decades?
Therefore, except for a few people, most people understood the Queen Mother's hidden message.
Obviously, the Queen Mother had no objection to the candidates proposed by the officials.
At some point, not objecting is enough to reveal a lot.
After a while, Wang Zeng bowed slightly and said.
"In the past, our ancestors were scholars who were judges of taxation. They were well versed in accounting and could not be deceived by officials. When they were admonishers, they dared to speak out when things happened, and did not hide any offenses they committed, thus gaining the status of a respectful minister."
"My lord, I believe that the ancestral scholar should be the best choice."
On the stage, Li Jie couldn't help but smile when he heard Wang Zeng's speech.
It was also difficult for Wang Zeng to come up with such a rhetoric in a short period of time.
At first glance, this rhetoric seems to be praising Zu Shiheng.
But if you look deeper, it seems that there is nothing to praise.
Even if I praise it, I won’t praise it either.
Nonsense literature is nothing more than that.
"I also believe that the ancestral scholar can serve as the Third Secretary Envoy."
After thinking for a long time, Ding Wei also agreed to the official's proposal.
After all, Zu Shiheng was his man, and being able to sit in the position of the third envoy was no worse than Lu Yijian sitting in it.
When the tea method becomes easier, he still doesn't believe it if it deviates just a few points. Will the northern scholars be fooled?
If the northern scholars could really hold back, Ding Wei would not mind going along with the situation and gaining more say.
Seeing that Wang Zeng and Ding Wei successively agreed to the official's proposal, even if others were a little dissatisfied, they would not show it at this time.
As a result, it didn't take long for the matter of taking over as Third Secretary Envoy to be settled.
…
…
…
evening.
Zu Shiheng, who returned home from work, was shocked to find that several carriages were parked at the door of his house.
How is this going?
Although he is a Hanlin scholar and is very noble, it is not his first day as a Hanlin scholar. There have never been so many cars parked in front of his house before.
