If he wants to assist his grandson in ascending to the throne, then he must have the support of the six ministries.

Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household have been one family.

But with the cultivation of the Great Zhou, with the family's own policies, the six departments were also divided into two factions.

The Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of War were factions of the Wei family, while the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry became the faction of Liu Xiang.

Earlier, the emperor used Huo Baorou's death to let Huo Shangshu stay at home. The Ministry of Rites is still free, which is equivalent to abolishing one of Wei Zhongxian's hands.

But how can the Ministry of Rites compare with the Ministry of Households, the emperor abolished Wei Zhongxian's hand, but he wanted to abolish his arm.

Why? No matter how the situation in the DPRK and China changes, it has not been so moved, what does the emperor mean and what is the purpose of his doing?

Liu Xiang didn't think much about it, he knelt up straight, kowtowed, and said, "Your Majesty, think twice!"

Lord Zhao has been in charge of the household department for many years and has been conscientious, but now the treasury is tight, and it is really a good year. No matter how clever this clever woman is, it is difficult to cook without rice.

I hope that Your Majesty will think twice, think twice..."

When Hubu Shangshu heard this, he was already in tears. He has been a household secretary for 20 years, not to mention conscientious, it's almost the same, let him return to his hometown at this moment... What did he do to his people?

He suddenly felt that something was wrong, if he was old, who would sit in his place? Is this going to step on him? Or is there something else...

In a flash of thought, he was now sure that he was making room for someone.

But who is that person? Now that there is a locust plague in Shandong and a war in the southwest, this household is the most important thing. Who knows more about the situation of the household than him?

What Hubu Shangshu can think of, King Qing and others can also think of.

King Qing looked at the emperor with a lot of thoughts, and he didn't intercede for Zhao Shangshu.

The emperor led troops to the expedition in his early years, and he even knew better than him about money and food.

The emperor will not be unaware of the key to this, so... Who is the New Book Club?

He thought about the few people who had better political performance in the household department, and then thought about the family history of several of them.

The emperor said: "Zhao Shangshu is old, I will allow you to return to your hometown." ”

Zhao Shangshu kowtowed with tears, "Minister... Thank you, Lord Long. ”

Liu Xiang tilted aside decadently, he hated in his heart, but he didn't say a word more.

The emperor has already expressed his attitude, and now he just wants to know who the new Hubu Shangshu is?

Is his? or Wei Xiang's? He couldn't help but look at Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian's face was expressionless, and he had also seen it at this moment.

The two looked at each other, the same heart was shocked, if it wasn't their people, then who would it be?

This is impossible, the emperor is really an unwise choice to break the power of the family in the court at this time.

Everyone pricked up their ears and waited for the emperor to appoint a new household secretary.

They all wanted to know whether the newly ascended Hubu Shangshu had three heads and six arms, or had excellent insights, or had some wonderful way to govern the country.

The emperor spoke, "Dong Wende, the head of the household, is conscientious and wise. I have now set up him as the secretary of the household department, in charge of the money and grain of the Great Zhou, and share my worries..."

Dong Wende's name sounded in everyone's ears.

Liu Xiang's face was full of disbelief, "How could it be him?" How did a person who didn't even have a clan get past him and Wei Xiang and get into the eyes of the emperor?

He turned his head to look at the acting king, in the past, there was something in the court, and the emperor would not pass on the king.

Is this what the king means?

Just looking at the expression of the acting king, he immediately denied it.

The acting king was also shocked at this moment, is Dong Wende really so talented? He muttered: "No wonder Ruyi likes him so much. ”

What child is not proud of his father, in contrast, his father, except for his good blood, is useless.

King Qing glared and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the household department is tied to Li Min, and this position of Shangshu is not a child's play."

Master Dong is certainly capable, but he is young after all, and now he is only more than a month in the household department, so he needs to be appointed to the position of Shangshu, how can he be competent?"

Those who dare to refute the emperor's will have no one but King Qing.

What King Keqing said is the truth.

Dong Wende has only entered the household department, and now I am afraid that he has not even started the work of the household department. Isn't it a joke how such a person can be qualified for the position of Shangshu!

What's more, today's Great Week is different from the past.

In recent years, there have been disasters in various places, and now the imperial court is unable to make ends meet.

At this time, the war started, not to mention Dong Wende, a layman, that is, Lord Zhao, who had been a household secretary for 20 years, was anxious for the sake of silver at the moment.

The Ministry of War Shangshu said: "The minister does not understand the affairs of the household department, as long as the salary of the military department can be issued on time, the minister thinks that any household department can be managed." ”

Liu Xiang scoffed, Dong Wende was appointed as the secretary of the household department, not to mention the soldiers' salaries, I am afraid that even their salaries will be in arrears.

The acting king looked at everyone, and the household was in charge of the money and grain, and he suddenly understood something?

500,000 quintals of grain... The emperor changed his mind when he heard him say 500,000 loads of grain...

The emperor said: "King Qing is not unreasonable. Since Zhongqing is worried, it is better to limit it to March, if Dong Qing still can't figure out what the household department does in March, then I will personally remove him. ”

King Qing didn't speak, the emperor said so, and no matter how much he said, it would be in vain.

The words 'Dong Ruyi' flashed through his mind.

He looked at the acting king and instantly understood the acting king's expression.

He was in a hurry, how could the emperor let it go?

It's just that it's not good for him to quarrel with the emperor at this moment, but fortunately, the emperor has something to say first, and it is not difficult to remove him in the future.

Master Zhao knew and wanted to know, he kowtowed tremblingly, and then stood up tremblingly.

The rest of the matter really has nothing to do with him.

He looked at Liu Xiang, and then at Wei Xiang, both of whom had lost to an unknown Dong Wende.

He remembered that he was disdainful of Dong Wende before, but now he was replaced.

He swayed, and before he knew it, it was already dawn.

He looked at the sunlight shining into the hall, and his body directly tilted.

"Lord Zhao... Lord Zhao fainted..."

The emperor sighed and ordered the imperial doctor.

***

The sun rose, and the civil and military officials were in the outer study of the Jinluan Palace, waiting for the summons of the early dynasty.

"The Holy Decree has arrived. The voice came from outside, and Baiguan looked out.

Then walked outside.

Wang Xi held the holy decree in his hand and his face was serious.

"What kind of holy decree is this, it turned out to be Wang Xi himself?"

Different holy decrees are passed on by eunuchs of different levels, and what Wang Xi can pass on must be from the top of the Sanpin Dayuan.

Wang Xi looked around, there were too many people, and he didn't find Dong Wende in the first place.

He thought for a moment, and then shouted, "Dong Wende, the head of the household... Lord Dong stepped forward to take the order..."

The eyes of the hundred officials all looked at Dong Wende.

Dong Wende knelt in the middle of the hundred officials, his face was sluggish, the holy decree turned out to be his. ”

He hurriedly got up and knelt down, "Minister, the head of the household... Dong Wende took the order. ”
