Chapter 406: A Delicate Situation

(Thank you for listening to the flute under the moon!) Thank you all for your support! The author Jun is not in a good state and is very weak~~)

The allocation of subordinate officials in the East Palace is a major event in the court, which makes Gu Zhan's heart rise, and he expects that in the next few days, the officials will definitely not be easy.

In fact, this should be the biggest thing Gu Zhan has encountered since he became the secretary of the ministry.

The allocation of the subordinate officials of the East Palace is a small court, even if not every subordinate official of the East Palace is matched, just the three places of the Prince Zhan Shifu, Zuo Chunfang, and Right Chunfang are enough for a headache.

Who is the prince Zhan Shi, and who is the Shao Zhan Shi; Who is the left concubine and the right concubine, these are all important matters that need to be carefully considered.

The so-called pulling a hair and moving the whole body, each of these subordinate officials of the East Palace is related to the imperial court and the future of the imperial court, and perhaps, the subordinate officials of the Eastern Palace will be important officials of the three provinces in the future.

That's why Emperor Chongde designated Gu Zhan to be in charge of this matter, so Gu Zhan didn't dare to take it lightly.

On the night of the invitation to appoint the subordinate officials of the East Palace, Gu Zhan appeared in the East Garden of the Shen Family. He is here, of course, because some things are hesitant.

Shen Su is the emperor's teacher, and the Gu family and the Shen family are related, Gu Zhan's hesitant things are really normal to come to Shen Su to discuss.

But for Shen Su and Shen Du, it was a bit unexpected that Gu Zhan would visit at this time. β€”β€”In Shen Su's impression, Gu Zhan, the official of the ministry, was loyal and straightforward, and he consulted others on the matter of appointing subordinate officials of the East Palace, which he really did not expect.

"Elder Shen, the prince has already delivered the message to the ministry. The person who belongs is Zong Zhengqing Jiang Qin; Jiang Qin himself expressed such a will. It's just that the position of Prince Zhan is too important, and I can't guess the emperor's intentions. Gu Zhan said embarrassedly.

For such an important position, of course, the crown prince has to choose people who are close to him, but Gu Zhan thought that Jiang Qin had just been promoted to Zong Zhengqing not long ago, and his qualifications were still shallow, so it might be inappropriate to serve as the crown prince Zhan, Gu Zhan thought about it, and still came to the Shen family's East Garden, wanting to hear the opinions of the emperor who was most familiar with the court situation and knew Emperor Chongde the most.

On this matter, Shen Su really has no opinion. Because. Time is too short. Many details have not yet been revealed, that is to say, the situation has not yet developed, and at this time, the matter has not yet been decided.

"The emperor didn't care about Jiang Qin. Most of the candidates for Prince Zhan are from Jiufu Yin. "Talking. It's Shen Du.

Gu Zhan is Gu Yan's grandfather. Shen Du's attitude was extremely respectful.

This reply was nodded by Shen Su. On this issue, Shen Su and Shen Du's opinions are of course the same. Other words. In this matter, Emperor Chongde and the crown prince had different ideas.

Of course, the emperor's intentions will not be revealed so quickly, but the prince can't wait to fall in love with Jiang Qin, which fully shows that he is really satisfied with Jiang Qin.

From Shangshu Zuocheng to Zong Zhengqing, Gu Zhan didn't find out what a great thing Jiang Qin had done, how could he be the only one with the prince's blue eyes?

Gu Zhan couldn't figure it out, and Shen Su and Shen Du were also thinking.

"Don't worry, no matter who Jiang Qin or Jiufu Yin is, it's not in a hurry. The emperor is not so anxious about the appointment of subordinate officials of the East Palace, and this matter can be postponed. In my view, the situation is subject to change. Shen Su pecked the table with his hand and replied thoughtfully.

As soon as the will was issued, the Jingzhao officials were still immersed in the excitement of this matter, and when everyone calmed down and had their own plans, the situation would be clearer.

"What does Elder Shen mean......" Gu Zhan suddenly realized something and said in surprise. No, wait and see, Shen Lao meant, is that so?

"Yes, that's exactly the case, so the officials must be fully prepared, and the subordinate officials of the East Palace will not be so simple." Shen Su nodded, piercing Gu Zhan's faint expectation.

Gu Zhan's face suddenly became ugly, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously. If this is the case, the rest of the ministry will be very difficult.

One is the emperor and the other is the prince, which side should be standing, Gu Zhan is still very clear. But he could not predict what would happen next.

In the face of the general trend, whether it is the emperor or the prince, they are all part of it, and the last person who is embarrassed is the officials of the ministry.

"Follow the trend and plan before acting." In the end, Gu Zhan only had these eight words, and after clicking on the name of a certain official, he saw that Gu Zhan seemed to have understood.

Subsequently, the situation in the court developed as Shen Su expected. After the Jingzhao officials thoroughly understood what the subordinate officials of the East Palace were, most of the officials in the officialdom moved.

This moved, of course, because he wanted to serve as a subordinate official of the East Palace. For a time, the Gu family was in full swing, and there was an endless stream of officials who came to visit. At the same time, there are more officials walking around the East Palace, and they don't seem to shy away from contacting the East Palace.

Of these officials, half of them are officials below the fifth grade. These officials are not important officials of Jingzhao, but most of them are officials around the outside of the court, and they can be called middle-level officials. These officials are in the stage of rising careers, but they have not entered the eyes of Emperor Chongde.

These middle-level officials, who may not have played much of a role during the Chongde period, are actually the mainstay of the imperial court in the future. Among these officials, if they have been trained in the court for a few more years and have been promoted to the fourth rank or above, they may not be reused by Emperor Chongde.

Qualifications are to be boiled out step by step and slowly.

Emperor Chongde understood these truths, and the officials themselves understood them even better. In other ordinary circumstances, these officials will inevitably work hard and slowly with all their hearts, and will be willing to go from a layman to a middle man in a down-to-earth manner, and wait for the position of Taiwan assistant step by step.

But now, the situation is obviously different, and now it is necessary to appoint a subordinate official of the East Palace, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for promotion. If you grasp it well, you can avoid a few years of detours, which is a detour of more than ten years.

Such a good opportunity, even officials who are not speculative know that it is rare, and who does not use all their resources to fight for such an opportunity.

The emperor is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, but now there are too many capable officials and ministers above the fourth rank in the court, when will it be the turn of these middle-level officials to come out?

In contrast, the crown prince with a stable position is a better choice than the emperor of the current dynasty.

No day is a holiday, no matter how prosperous the spring and autumn are, there is a twilight day. -- It is self-evident what choices middle-level officials will make.

In addition to middle-level officials, officials above the fourth rank are not idle. They are not planning for themselves, but every official has children and grandchildren behind him, right? They have already served in the court, but the juniors can enter the East Palace to serve.

Therefore, wave after wave of officials flocked to the Gu family and also went to the homes of other officials in the Ministry of Officials, of course, the officials who went to visit the East Palace through the Palace Gate Bureau did not stop.

When Emperor Chongde knew about this, the expression on his face became subtle.

(Extra: The state of the past few days is so bad that I can't hide my face and run away.) Can I weakly say a word and try to update it~) (To be continued......)
