Chapter 100: Lobbying

"Your Majesty, there are many affairs in the household department, and the minister believes that the household department cannot be left without an owner for a day. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Xiao Hongzhen shook his beard and said, "Zhao Qingjia, who do you think is competent?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Zhao Shouzheng, the Inspector of the Household Department, is an upright person, and is quite familiar with the affairs of the Household Department, and the minister thinks that it can be reused."

"Lord Zhao is really inward-moving and doesn't shy away from relatives......"

Xiao Zhengyuan stepped to the forefront: "Father, the son thinks that although the affairs of the household department are heavy, Fu Wenjie, the head of the household department, has been in this position for many years, and he can still handle it thoughtfully, as for the position of the secretary of the household department, there is no need to rush for a while." ”

Xiao Hongzhen's face seemed to hesitate.

Zhao Moqun said again: "Your Majesty, if the post of the head of the household department is undecided, it is inevitable that the people's hearts will be damaged, if the people think that His Majesty's removal of Fu Wenjie's position is just an expedient measure, I am afraid that it will lead to criticism, please think twice......

Xiao Zhengyuan glanced at Zhao Moqun and said secretly: If it is really an old fox, if you say this, I am afraid that it will be difficult to use Fu Wenjie again in the future.

Clearing his throat, Xiao Zhengyuan said again: "Even if what Lord Zhao said is true, Erchen thinks that although Zhao Shouzheng, the household inspector, has made some achievements over the years, it is too hasty to jump three levels in a row. Besides, Zhao Shouzheng is Lord Zhao's cousin, so this arrangement is really inappropriate. ”

"Your Majesty, although Zhao Shouzheng is the minister's cousin, the minister's proposal to make him the head of the household department has nothing to do with this, because he is the most suitable candidate, Your Majesty Mingjian!"

Xiao Hongzhen nodded: "I believe in the loyalty of Zhao Qing's family, Zhao Shouzheng has indeed made some achievements over the years, and he is also honest and credible, so ......"

"Your Majesty, there is also one minister who wants to recommend."

Cui Ge, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

Xiao Hongzhen was interested when he heard it, and looked at him with some meaning: "Cui Qing's family seems to have rarely recommended talents for many years, I want to hear it, who is so good that he can enter the eyes of Cui Qing's family?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty should also have some impressions."

"Oh? Let's hear it. ”

"It is Chen Zifeng, the person in charge of Rongcheng Rice Shop----. He started from scratch, and took care of Rongcheng Rice Shop as he dealt with the household department all the year round, and he was quite familiar with the process of the household department, and this person was benevolent and loving, and he would not disappoint His Majesty's trust. ”

As soon as the words were finished, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty all exchanged their heads and whispered......

"Chen Zifeng?"

Xiao Hongzhen pondered quietly for a moment when he heard this, and then spoke: "This person is indeed a rare talent, I remember that I still owe him a love that has not been repaid...... If he takes over the ministry, I am not worried, but according to the regulations, the senior officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee are not allowed to have private property, and Chen Zifeng's rice shops are all over my Nan'an country, if he wants to let go, I am afraid that he may not agree. ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister can lobby for this matter, whether it will be successful or not, the minister is not too sure, but the position of the head of the household department is ......"

"In this way, it will be for half a month, and if he refuses to come, I will not force it."

After talking about this matter, Cui Ge asked again: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Chun has not been to the court for more than half a month, and it is inconvenient for the minister to visit in private, so he will say a word, I wonder if His Royal Highness's health is better?" ”

Speaking of Xiao Mingyan, Xiao Hongzhen showed a trace of sadness: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for many days, King Chun prayed for rain for the people day and night when he was in Mingzhou, and he fell ill, I'm afraid that I have to recuperate for a while, Cui Aiqing has a heart, so it doesn't hurt to go to visit." ”

After thinking about it, he said: "In a few days, when I get up and go to the Lianzhou Palace, I will take him with me, I think it will be better sooner." ”

After going down to the court, Cui Ge was worried about Xiao Mingyan's injury, got into a sedan chair and went to King Chun's mansion.

Who knew that he was stopped as soon as he walked to the door, and Wen Xi kept saying that His Royal Highness King Chun was seriously ill and not suitable to see guests, which made Cui Ge very annoyed.

I wanted to show my heart after seeing His Highness, but I didn't want to see even a single figure, so I had to go to the wind and live in idleness.

When Chen Zifeng heard what Cui Ge meant, he hurriedly waved his hand and shouted.

Ren Cuige wore out the skin of his mouth, Chen Zifeng was as unmoved as a piece of wood, and he didn't know what to do, when the family at the door came to report, saying that Chang Jinghou Ye Boxian came to visit.

Cui Ge was going to leave, but when he heard that Ye Boxian was coming, he must have come to win people's hearts for the eldest prince, and he couldn't be asked to get his wish no matter what he wanted today.

When Ye Boxian walked in, he saw Cui Ge leisurely sipping tea in the guest room, and his heart moved: This Cui Ge is moving fast.

Then he greeted with a smile and sat down.

Chen Zifeng didn't know what was going on between the two, but when he saw this meeting, he guessed everything.

"Master Hou came over today, could it be that he also wants to persuade him to take the post of secretary of the household department?"

"Exactly."

"Master Hou, you know, the old man is just a businessman, he doesn't understand the things in officialdom, and he doesn't want to get involved."

"Ye Lao, I have known you for many years, how can I not know your temperament? Everything is at ease, and he does not want to be controlled. But right now, if you don't sit in this position, I'm afraid it will be Zhao Moqun's cousin of Lord Zhao. ”

"Lord Zhao's cousin? But Zhao Shouzheng, the inspector of the household department? The old man has also dealt with him, and he is a good person. Hou Ye thinks, what's wrong with him sitting in the household department? ”

"There's nothing wrong with his ability, it's just ......"

Ye Boxian deliberately paused and looked at Cui Ge, and saw that he didn't mean to avoid it at all, so he had to clear his throat and said, "It's just that he is Zhao Moqun's cousin, and it's not good after all." ”

Cui Ge interjected coldly on the side: "Ye Hou Ye might as well directly say that Zhao Shouzheng can't be used by the eldest prince, it's more appropriate." ”

"The Great Prince?"

Chen Zifeng was a little confused, where is this?

However, Cui Ge's words reminded Chen Zifeng, could it be that Ye Boxian didn't want Zhao Moqun's people to come forward, it should be because of the partisan dispute?

After a little hesitation, Chen Zifeng remembered what Gu Chuhuan reminded him before, it seems that this Zhao Moqun should be Xiao Liran's person, if Zhao Shouzheng is in charge of the household department, it will undoubtedly be another big help for Xiao Liran's ascendancy.

"Master Cui, I don't really understand the meaning of my lord's words, what does this have to do with the eldest prince?"

"You better ask Ye Houye, he knows the matter of the eldest prince best."

Ye Boxian shook his head amusedly, then looked at Chen Zifeng and said, "Old Chen, Master Cui thinks that Benhou is ...... The people of the Great Prince. ”

Chen Zifeng smiled when he heard this.

turned to look at Cui Ge and said: "Lord Cui knows that the old man has spent half of his net worth to support His Royal Highness King Chun's disaster relief strategy, and today he proposed to His Majesty that the old man should take the position of the head of the household department...... Could it be that Lord Cui is yearning for His Royal Highness King Chun? ”

Cui Ge was stunned when he heard this, as if he had been told that he had something in mind.

Ye Boxian and Chen Zifeng on the side looked at him quietly.
