Chapter 075 The Ministry of Forestry Industry is a strange commodity to live in

Lin Jue did not have the qualifications to go to the court on weekdays, and when he was in the cabinet before, he also had no qualifications. However, now that he has been promoted to the head of the Ministry of Engineering from the fourth grade, he has to go to the court every time he has a big court meeting. Entering the inner hall is the treatment that the first and second rank masters can enjoy, that is, outside the hall, there are only three or four rank officials standing, such as their class below the fourth grade, they stand directly in the outermost courtyard, and there is no shelter from the wind and rain.

Lin Jue has defended himself in the previous dynasty, participated in the palace examination, and also walked in the cabinet, so he is familiar with the rules that need to be paid attention to in the previous dynasty, and he does not need to be mentioned by others. The other three principals originally wanted to see Lin Jue, who participated in the court meeting for the first time, make jokes, but they were disappointed.

The guards outside the hall are heavily guarded, and these officials below the third grade, unless the emperor calls them, they have to stand from beginning to end, even if they are in a hurry, they have to stand up.

Because the early dynasty was very early, many experienced officials would prepare two pieces of cake and hide them in their sleeves, and when they couldn't bear the hunger, they would hide them with their sleeves and secretly use one piece.

The three directors of the Ministry of Works, except for Lin Jue, all hid cakes in their sleeves, and when they saw Lin Jue standing starvingly without being stunned, they had to eat secretly at the same time, they secretly laughed at Lin Jue for being stupid. Lin Jue only didn't know what to do, but he still looked respectful, and he became more and more stupid.

The three of them were at the same time, and they muttered something as they ate it.

"Director of the Propaganda Department, Lin Jue, Zhao Nong, Xu Changfa, and Yan Ziyu enter the hall." The eunuch called out four names in a long voice, lowered his eyes and looked down, only to see a handsome young man with a long body and a tall body had already left the ranks, and the other three others were coughing and gradually coming out of the ranks. With a sneer, the eunuch turned around and went back to the inner hall.

Lin Jue smiled in his eyes, he got up early in the morning and didn't eat, Li Yibai knew the Tao here, and had already reminded him to prepare some food in advance. Sometimes when there is a dispute in the inner sanctum, and it is difficult to make a decision, the early dynasty will often be postponed, and it is not certain when it will be postponed. However, this morning, Li Yibai deliberately dragged him to get up early, and used a bowl of japonica rice porridge alone, telling him not to bring anything to the court meeting, for fear that the emperor would summon him.

Although it may not be called, since Li Yibai has mentioned it, there must be something related to the Ministry of Works, and they need to enter the palace to reply to the decree. This is the advantage of some people in the DPRK, who will not be caught while eating secretly, which is really ugly.

The three people behind them held back their coughs, their faces flushed, and Lin Jue walked in front of him, calm and calm. In this way, the comparison of the four people is really the difference between heaven and earth.

Entering the hall to salute first, three shouts of long live, Emperor Hongzheng called "flat body", and smiled at Lin Jue: "Yes, I have grown a lot in the Ministry of Industry." "It's not good to say that you don't grow in, but there are three other blushing and thick necks to compare, and if you don't grow, you should grow.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu was still in that confused look, and when he heard Emperor Hongzheng's words, he became clever and immediately echoed: "The Ministry of Forestry Industry has always been a safe person, and it is really a person that His Majesty values, and he can't be wrong." ”

Emperor Hongzheng nodded with satisfaction, and asked Lin Jue with concern, "Are you still used to it in the Ministry of Industry?" Can you still take care of business? ”

Lin Jue said respectfully: "Lao Majesty xià remembers, and the ministers are all good." In official affairs, I also rely on the help of my colleagues, and now I have already started it. ”

"Very good," he praised the Ministry of Works, "Qu Aiqing has a way, and the Ministry of Industry is united, very good." ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu was busy and humble.

Emperor Hongzheng praised the other three principals, "It is really a good thing that the secretaries can work together and support each other, and I hope that the secretaries can continue to work together and contribute to the court." ”

Lin Jue and the four of them were busy kneeling down again to thank them.

In the past, the officials below the squire of the Ministry of Works had not been summoned, and this was the first time they faced the saint, and the other three principals were unsatisfactory, and they all sighed. Lin Jue, on the other hand, always looked calm, which made the three of them frightened.

I only knew that Lin Jue came out of the cabinet, what kind of place is the cabinet, everyone who has entered the cabinet, all of them are marquis and worship the prime minister, how can there be such a thing as Lin Jue, although the official rank has been promoted, but it is from the Son of Heaven to the close ministers for the ordinary eunuchs, which is more important, do you still need to distinguish?

They originally thought that Lin Jue was annoyed that the emperor was sent down, but only because of the support of the king of Yonghe County, he was transferred to the Ministry of Industry. But I don't want to answer correctly in front of you today, Lin Jue shows no signs of falling out of favor, but they are wrong?

Lin Jue has just entered the Ministry of Works, and the emperor has favored him, if he wants him to take over the position of the squire of the Ministry of Works, he should □□ directly. Now that they have only done a master's job, the other three instantly became clear that this Lin Jue was not the person they should guard against, but the person they should be wooing.

The three of them are not stupid, and when they think about it like this, they suddenly become enlightened, and they can't help but regret their previous small belly. But it's not too late, after all, the three of them have the same □□, and they haven't settled with Lin Jue, so it is not yet known who will kill this deer.

On the second day, Lin Jue responded and received unprecedented warm reception.

The three principals of Tuntian, Yubu, and the Ministry of Water took turns to invite Lin Jue, who said that they were helping him sort out the old affairs of the past years, and this said that he was familiar with the Ministry of Industry, and he wanted to invite him to drink after going down to the office, which was really lively. Fortunately, Lin Jue was called away by Lord Shangshu after a while, otherwise it would be really difficult to shirk. It really offends everyone who pushes it, and offends everyone if they push it.

Lin Jue entered Qu Shangshu's house, and Qu Shangshu was teasing his starling.

After Lin Jue bowed, Qu Shangshule called him up, looked at the seat again, and asked Lin Jue with a smile: "You have been in the Ministry of Industry for more than a month, how is it, you are still used to it in all aspects, right?" ”

Lin Jue also replied with a smile: "It's okay for Xia Guan to be a good person, and Lord Lao Shangshu cares." ”

Qu Shangshu stroked his beautiful hair, and said with a smile: "I didn't know that you were Zuo Xiang's nephew, it's really a family that doesn't recognize the family, the daughter-in-law of your eldest cousin of the Zuo family is my brother's granddaughter, and we are all relatives, and you follow them to call me 'Uncle Zu'." ”

This relationship was mentioned by Mrs. Zuo as early as when she knew that he was going to enter the Ministry of Industry, but it was not as close as Qu Shangshu said, in fact, Zuo's sister-in-law's grandfather and Qu Shangshu were cousins, not brothers. However, this "uncle" is also called. Qu Shangshu wanted to talk about marriage, but Lin Jue was also willing, so he got up and knelt down and bowed, calling "Uncle Zu".

Qu Shangshu personally helped the person up, and said happily: "You kid, you are too polite." I don't know that we are relatives, don't you know, you don't even inform your uncle, you really should fight. ”

Lin Jue hurriedly said: "I also heard my aunt mention it, but I was embarrassed to visit, others don't know the inside story, but I want to slap in with my uncle, and make trouble for my uncle." ”

"What are these words, although I don't care about it, but I am not at the mercy of others. You don't have to pay much attention to the three principals, after yesterday's court meeting, they probably also figured it out, and now eighty percent of them are in a hurry to tie you up, right? Qu Shangshu sat down with Lin Jue's support, pointed to the chair beside him, and motioned for Lin Jue to sit too.

Lin Jue sat down and said, "Xu was busy some time ago, and now that I am free, several adults are thinking of inviting me to have a drink." said that this was also an old order, and it was regarded as welcoming me, a newcomer. I thought, after all, I'm only here, and it's really hard for you adults to break the bank. Drinking together is to have a lively time, and you don't have to invite him tomorrow today, why don't I put a few tables of banquets and invite all my colleagues in the Ministry of Industry to be lively and lively together. It's not good to disturb the uncle, but the uncle loves it, so he has to lick his face and beg the uncle to sit down. ”

Qu Shangshu smiled: "This is good, you know that you are a sensible person, so it is appropriate." You set a date and send me a post when the time comes, and I will be there. ”

Lin Jue got up and said, "It's caused trouble to my uncle." ”

"What's the trouble or not, since you called me 'Uncle Ancestor', isn't this all the right thing to do."

When it came to this, Lin Jue was no longer polite, and after saying a few more words, Qu Shangshu let Lin Jue out.

As soon as he got out of Qu Shangshu's house, Li Yibai's people were waiting outside, so they went to Li Yibai again.

"It's okay if others look for me, why do you follow in the fun?" Lin Jue sat down on the chair in a mess, picked up the teapot and poured water for himself.

"Don't drink this, it's all herbal tea, I'll ask the messenger to make a new pot of tea." Li Yibai went to call someone, and after a while, he came back after making hot tea and poured it for Lin Jue.

"I heard that the Forestry Department is very busy today, either this invitation or that one, I don't have time this morning, right?"

Lin Jue smiled, hooked Li Yibai's neck and said, "Dare you still find someone to look at me?" ”

Li Yibai spat out, "What's the matter, I'm not afraid that someone will embarrass you, and I didn't look at it deliberately, just report to me from time to time and report where you are." ”

Lin Jue wasn't really angry, "Then why did you ask me to come to you?" ”

Although the two are intimate, they are all together, but they do not interact with each other in the yamen. It was the first time that Li Yibai called Lin Jue directly, and if he had any orders in the past, the four principals came together.

"Aren't I afraid of annoying you with such an eyeless face, you are here with me, naturally no one dares to bother you."

Lin Jue picked up Li Yibai's chin with one hand, "You are obedient." ”

Li Yibai laughed twice, asked Lin Jue to lie on him, and kneaded his waist, "How is it, is your waist still sore?" ”

Lin Jue was also a little tired, Li Yibai didn't know what to smoke last night, so he had to ask for it again and again, so he talked to Qu Shangshu for a long time, bowing and kneeling, he was really tired at this time.

Li Yibai's massage technique is a bit hot, but he learned it by asking Master Luo in person, although he was beaten by Lin Jue later because of this, but Lin Jue still likes it very much.

Lin Jue slept in Li Yibai's errand room, and was smuggled back to Lin Mansion by Li Yibai in the afternoon, which made the three principals of the Tuntian Yu Department and the Water Department all empty, even Jia Zheng, who had been waiting for Lin Jue to come, did not see anyone.

Jia Zheng was a little apprehensive in his heart, and the people of the former Ministry of Industry had doubts about why Lin Jue would be transferred from the cabinet to the Ministry of Industry, otherwise Jia Zheng would not dare to empty Lin Jue. He is also a member of the court, and when he heard about Lin Jue's answer with the emperor at yesterday's court meeting, he knew in his heart that he had guessed the emperor's mind wrong. Now it would be a bit hypocritical to say that there is no return to power, but fortunately, it has not been a long time now, and Lin Jue can cope with the past on the grounds that he is not familiar with official business. Now that he has handed over power little by little, it is nothing.

This is what Jia Zheng thought of after thinking about it for a long time last night, and even how to say it to Lin Jue, how not to make Lin Jue suspicious, he has thought about it. It's just that I waited for a day today, and I didn't even see a figure. First, I heard that I was called by Qu Shangshu, and then I was recruited by the king of Yonghe County, and then I said that I was sick. This moment is the same, it really makes people's hearts flicker, and there is no stability.

Jia Zheng, who had been worried for a day, didn't know that Lin Jue was directly smuggled back to Lin Mansion by the King of Yonghe County, and even helped him take a three-day vacation. Anyway, the court meeting is over, and Lin Jue has nothing to do, so he tossed a little hard last night, just to rest. By the way, it also made those people who were going around with the direction of the wind, and they didn't have a place in their hearts, and they were either thinking about how to stumble Lin Jue for a day, or how to slap the horse.

Then there is Jia Zheng, Lin Jue has already expected Jia Zheng's attitude after this incident, and he has the intention to dry him for a few days, which can be regarded as a small revenge.
