When Wang Ze read the end, he finally confirmed that what his nephew said was not groundless.
Wen Yanbo asked him to be prepared, as the imperial edict might arrive in Guangling at any time, inviting him to return to the court to report on his duties.
The letter was quite cryptic, but it was also stated clearly that several old ministers in the court had returned to their fields, and the court needed young and powerful people like Wang Ze to assist in government affairs.
All I have to do is tell Wang Ze clearly that there will be a place for you when you come back, and your hard work these years will not be in vain.
This is also the thing that the general managers from outside are most concerned about when they return to the court to report their duties. Although the general managers in various places have different powers and responsibilities and status, they are all ranked in the third rank of officials.
When you reach this position, it is actually very difficult to go further. You are already on the verge of not being rewarded for your high achievements. Therefore, it is quite difficult for the imperial court to recruit the general managers of various departments to return to the court to report their duties.
If you don't have a place in the court, you can't go back. But if you make a mistake and are caught, the emperor and the important ministers in the court may not be angry, but may be relieved and happy.
I love you so much.
Whether it is to recall you to the court or to deal with it in the future, it will be much easier than before. You yourself have nothing to say. In such a position, it is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat.
This is a truth that everyone in the officialdom can understand, and at the same time they can better understand their own situation.
In short, it is not easy to get out of the position of general manager. This requires someone in the court to speak for you, or your identity is special, and you must be able to hold on.
These are almost indispensable. Compared with Li Jing, Li Wu and other relatives, Wang Ze is inferior in status, and compared with Fan Wenjin, Yu Wenxin, Yu Wenhuo, Xue Wanjun and others, their achievements are also slightly inferior.
But he is not without advantages. He has the Wang family as his support, and he has worked hard over the years, and his hard work can take credit for it.
Therefore, it is not a bad thing for him to report back to the court.
And with Wen Yanbo's letter, he felt a little more at ease in his heart. He knew Wen Yanbo well, and he probably wouldn't make a false move with him. When he returned to the court, he would give him a counterattack.

…………
Wang Ze read it again, and after feeling that nothing was missing, he slowly put the letter down and pondered for a long time: "Has anyone in the government resigned recently?"
Wang Qiao thought for a moment, "A few years ago, I only heard that General Zuo Yuwei, Wang Zhibian, had resigned. His Majesty did not allow it, so there was no further news. There are no other rumors..."
Wang Ze glared at his nephew, "What does this mean? Wang Zhibian is the general of Zuo Yuwei. Even if he resigns and leaves, what does it have to do with Wang Ze?"
It seems that asking is in vain. He has exchanged letters with some people in the court and knows much more about the affairs of the court than the clansmen in the capital. There is no need to ask these questions at all.
In the past two years, the DPRK has become more and more stable, and there have been fewer job changes than before. What he wanted to know was actually whether there had been any changes in the DPRK recently, but looking at his nephew's appearance, he knew that nothing major had happened in the DPRK.
At this time, Wang Qiao suddenly said: "Shizhong Feng died last winter. Did anyone tell Uncle Yu?"
Wang Ze nodded slightly. The prime minister's death was not a trivial matter. Although it happened in winter and it was impossible for the whole world to make a fuss, the ministers everywhere had been notified by the court. For this reason, Wang Ze went on a vegetarian diet for a few days.
, to express condolences.
He met Feng Lun twice when he was in the capital. At that time, Feng Lun was still the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and Wen Yanbo was in charge of all affairs of the Ministry of Personnel. It is said that he and Feng Lun got along very well.
Later, Feng Lun was transferred to the position of minister, and Wang Ze also found himself the position of general manager of Yangzhou and was released from Beijing.
It can be said that he and Feng Lun are not related to each other. One is from Long Zhichen, the other is from the pseudo-Tang Dynasty, one is from the Jin Dynasty, and the other is from the Bohai Sea. They have almost no contact with each other.
Then Wang Ze shook his head again and said: "Fan Deyi as the internal minister..."
At this point, he paused. According to his own wishes, he would not work in a place like Menxia Province.
In his opinion, serving at the emperor's side may seem like an honor, but in fact, it is naturally inferior to ministers from other dynasties. The emperor's attendants cannot do much if they are not flattering.
People like him, Wang Ze, who come from a well-dressed family, are all about being upright and upright. As a last resort, even if they are the emperor, they will not be willing to serve him closely. How is that different from a slave?
The formation of this concept must start from the origin of the Menxia Province. The Menxia Province was an institution that originated from the eunuchs in the palace. Today, it has developed almost like the other two provinces. There are many talented people in it, not just
So unbearable.
But who told Wang Ze to be a descendant of the Wang family in Jinyang? They valued this.
Therefore, Wang Ze had not thought that Feng Deyi's death from illness had anything to do with him, but now that he thought about the temporary vacancy of the position of Prime Minister, Wang Ze became not sure.
At this time, Wang Ze returned to the court to report on his duties. Is it the intention of the court...
Wang Ze then shook his head secretly and read Wen Yanbo's letter. It seemed that this was not the case... Then he breathed a sigh of relief. If he stayed with the emperor all day long in the future...
When he thought of the emperor's temperament, Wang Ze shook his head. That was not a good position. It would be better not to fall on our old king's head, otherwise I'm afraid he would also get violently ill and die.
Let me first pay a moment of silence for Feng Lun, Lao Feng...the past two years have not been easy...
…………
Wang Qiao actually brought only so much news. Apart from confirming that he would return to the court soon to report on his duties, he didn't bring anything useful.
Wang Ze also read the letters written by his younger brother Wang Wen. Like Wang Qiao, the words were unclear and most of them missed the point. This was still his biological brother. Thinking of the changes that had happened to the Wang family over the years, he felt a little confused.
There was no one around, so Wang Ze couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
When the Tang Dynasty was founded, the Wang family had such a great advantage in Jin, but ended up in such a dilemma. There were not many people named Wang in the court. Once they left the court, there would be no one available. I really don't know.
What can I say?
The same goes for Wang Qing and Wang Zhibian. After so many years, the grievances have almost disappeared, right? Why can't we help each other and work together to revive our family reputation? Do we have to let outsiders see the joke?
People from these tribes are not as good as Wen Dalin, a provincial party member...
…………
Now that the news has been confirmed, Wang Ze has been thinking about what he will face after returning to the court and what position he should strive for, and he has also begun to prepare to leave Guangling.
The main reason why Wen Yanbo wrote to him was to ask him to arrange government affairs as soon as possible so as not to delay his return to Beijing.
Mainly to hand over government affairs with several supervisors. When the Yangzhou General Manager was there, the power was naturally concentrated in the Yangzhou General Manager. Once Wang Ze resigned and the court had no intention of continuing to establish the General Manager's Office in Guangling, the power would be dispersed.

I will be asking for votes at the end of the month. Thank you very much.
