The situation in the court is changing, no one knows what they will become, they may be high-spirited one moment, and they will be imprisoned the next moment; It may be cold one moment, and the next moment it will be like the sun.

Wang An's experience is a very good interpretation of this phenomenon.

Wang An was said to have been snubbed before, but no one expected that he was now really reused by His Majesty. Although the status has changed from the first to the second, the power is not the same.

Although Wang An was the number one eunuch before, he had no actual power, which everyone knows, and the real power is actually in Chen Hong's hands.

Although Wang An fell behind Chen Hong this time, he really got power. This soon-to-be-established Ministry of Internal Affairs can be said to have a great future.

In addition, Chen Hong was finally straightened out, took a step forward completely, and became the first person among the eunuchs.

The most depressed was Wei Zhongxian, he didn't do anything, and inexplicably changed from second to third.

After this blockbuster news came out, whether it was the people in the palace or the officials in the court, everyone was thinking about the impact of this matter.

You must know that although this seems to be the ranking of eunuchs, it is actually not like that, and the impact is too far-reaching.

As for the establishment of the Imperial Cabinet of Internal Affairs, in fact, it has already been put on the agenda, and the cabinet is said to have drawn up a list of large and small personnel of the Interior Office.

The three ministers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs have basically been determined, and the one sent by the palace is Wang An, and the other is the queen's father, Taikang Bo Zhang Guoji.

The last person has not yet been determined, and it is said that this person is going to be used to supervise the past, similar to the duties of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The Cabinet is in the process of selecting the right person.

For a while, all the officials who were eligible to be selected were excited.

Although people outside are rumoring bad things about the Internal Affairs Bureau, in fact, pragmatic people know that the status of this Internal Affairs Office must be unusual.

The Internal Affairs Office seems to be the chief steward of the emperor's family, but no one can manage this position, and it is directly responsible to the emperor.

Being an official in such a position as the chief steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is very easy to get His Majesty's favor, which is the same as being an official in Qiandi, which is very easy to be reused.

Therefore, people who want to further their official career are willing to take this step, although it seems to be a bit detouring, but it is actually a shortcut.

Among them, the happiest one was Cui Chengxiu, he really wanted to go to the Internal Affairs Office, but he felt that he might not have any chance in the cabinet, so he found Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian also hopes that Choi Chengxiu can go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

You must know that this internal affairs office is Wang An's, if Wei Zhongxian can send someone over, then at least Wang An can be held back, so Wei Zhongxian will not let go of such an opportunity.

Since Cui Chengxiu is willing to go to the Internal Affairs Office, Wei Zhongxian naturally supports it, but he will not find a chance for a while. However, Wei Zhongxian felt that if he went to His Majesty to intercede, maybe His Majesty would agree to let Cui Chengxiu enter the Internal Affairs Mansion.

At the same time, the impact of this incident is also reflected in another aspect, that is, the status of Tai Kangbo Zhang Guoji has increased greatly.

Originally, the new national ruler, everyone's attitude towards him was basically to stay away, and no one was willing to do anything with him.

After all, if you offend the national abbot, it means that you have offended Queen Zhang. Now that the situation is still unclear, it is better not to do such a thing.

As for getting close to Zhang Guoji, it doesn't have a good effect, and it doesn't get any benefits, so it's the best choice to stay away from him.

It's just that after this incident came out, Zhang Guoji's status was instantly improved, and anyone could see the benefits contained in this internal affairs office.

In the past few days, Zhang Guoji's home can be described as a crowd. Especially the Daming Xungui and Xunqi, the attitude towards Tai Comber has taken a 180-degree turn.

For relatives like Empress Zhang's family, the old nobles are unwilling to get involved with them. These veteran nobles are people who started with military achievements, and they don't rely on relationships. The most important thing is that if there is no benefit, it is easy to have problems.

As for the former relatives, they will not easily move closer to the queen's mother's side. The people in these Xun Qi families are already in the past tense, and it is best to keep a low profile at this time and not do anything. The queen's father is too conspicuous, and at this time, they may not have any good fruit to eat.

Therefore, everyone's attitude towards Tai Comber is the same as that of civil officials, and they are all respectful and far away.

But this time, after Taikang Bo Zhang Guoji came out to be the chief steward of the Internal Affairs Office, Xungui and his relatives instantly realized one thing, this should be the best place for their own family's children to work.

If you let the children of the family go to the army, it is easy to take risks if you don't do it, and if you don't do it, you will die in battle; If you go to other inconspicuous places, it is nothing more than eating and waiting for death, and it is unlikely that you want to go further.

Besides, it is impossible for the nobles and relatives to arrange all the children in the family to be in the army, how can there be so many places to arrange these children?

As for Jinyiwei, it is actually more like a place for relatives, because many of their children are favored as Jinyiwei, but most of them are idle and receive a salary, and there are very few people who can really be the center of power.

So when the opportunity of the Internal Affairs Office presented itself this time, all the nobles and relatives felt that it was an opportunity.

It can be seen from the design of this yamen that this is a yamen that serves the emperor, and it is natural to be close to the emperor. Such a yamen is naturally the first choice for people like them, as long as it can be liked by the emperor, nothing else matters.

What's more, the yamen of the Internal Affairs Office is not as bad as the reputation of Jinyiwei, and it is more inclined to civilian officials. Doing things in this will not have a bad reputation, and at the same time there are a lot of benefits in it, you can know at a glance that you are in charge of money and food, even if you don't reach out to get any money, there are more places to do your hands and feet, so countless people want to go in.

Under such circumstances, Tai Comber naturally became the target of public criticism, and everyone wanted to follow his path.

Tai Comber House.

Zhang Guoji sat on the chair a little irritably, with a bit of helplessness on his face, looking at the large number of worship posts beside him, he really didn't know what to do.

As a scholar, Zhang Guoji originally thought that he had always been a talent, but now it seems that this is not the case at all.

Once, Zhang Guoji also fantasized that if he could pass the imperial examination, then he would definitely be able to be a good official, and he would be able to be a big official, and even turn the tide and help the building to fall, just like Yu Qian.

It's just that Zhang Guoji's career has not been smooth in his life, and no one expected that he would reach the sky in one step at this age.

Although he relied on his daughter, Zhang Guoji was still very happy.

It's just that this joy didn't last for a few days, because the people who flocked to break through the threshold made Zhang Guoji a little overwhelmed.

The first group of people to come were those who had been friends with Zhang Guoji since the beginning of the day, then a group of scholars came to visit, and finally some local civil officials came.

There were even many high-ranking officials of the current dynasty who sent letters to Zhang Guoji, and some people came directly to the door with the greetings of the current officials.

In a word, they all want to enter the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

In addition to these people, there are also nobles and relatives in the court, and the same is true of these people.

In the face of these two groups of people, Zhang Guoji felt that he did not dare to offend anyone.

Let's talk about the civilian side first. He himself is a scholar, not to mention that those officials all hold real power in the DPRK. In such a situation, how dare you offend them?

It's the same with Xungui and Xunqi, whether they want to admit it or not, they are also one of them, and they have to integrate into their side after all.

If they are offended this time because of the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, what will they do in the future? Can't get by?

If you let these faceless people trouble you, you won't be able to do anything.

You must know that the nobles and relatives in the court are similar to the shrews and scoundrels on the street in the eyes of civil officials, it can be said that they cannot be beaten or trampled to death, and there is no way to deal with them.

Zhang Guoji can't afford to offend these nobles and relatives. But now that these two groups have all found their own homes, this is a little helpless.

Zhang Guoji doesn't know what to do now.

"Wasn't it a pleasure the other day? Why is it like this now? A woman's teasing voice sounded at the door.

Then a woman walked in from outside, although she didn't look young, but she still had the same charm, and there were some shadows of Queen Zhang on her face.

This person is none other than Empress Zhang's mother, the Li family.

Seeing Li walking in, Zhang Guoji sighed, pointed to the pile of worship posts around him and said, "Look at these things!" ”

Li didn't go to see Zhang Guoji, nor did he look at the things that Zhang Guoji asked her to see, but walked to the chair on the side and sat down directly.

What she said immediately struck Zhang Guoji's heart, "What is there to be embarrassed about?" Why don't you go into the palace and ask? ”

"Go into the palace and ask?" Zhang Guoji hesitated a little, and said suspiciously: "Who to ask?" ”

"Who else can you ask, ask the queen!" Li said angrily: "This matter has been decided by the palace from beginning to end, and some people say that whether it is you or that Wang An, it is all arranged by our daughter." Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, at least it doesn't hurt us to go into the palace and ask, it's much more useful than you holding back yourself here. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Guoji was silent for a while, then nodded, and suddenly came to his senses and said, "Then I'll go into the palace now and ask our daughter." ”

Looking at Zhang Guoji's appearance, Li couldn't help but instruct: "You still have to pay attention to some rules, our daughter is now the queen, don't embarrass our daughter." ”

"Don't worry, I know how to do it." Zhang Guoji waved his hand impatiently.

Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Chen Hong, who hurriedly walked in, and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, this is the inscription handed over by the Tai Kangbo Mansion. Kang Bo misses the queen too much and wants to visit the palace. Chen Hong bowed down and said, holding a question book in both hands.

Zhu Youxiao was slightly stunned, and then a smile appeared on his face.

It seems that this abbot is not a fool, and he knows to come into the palace and ask.
