Chapter 171: Hou Puru
The Ministry of Rites came forward, but it was just a compromise plan.
So Yang He prepared to make peace with the mud, first let Hou Shigui be promoted to two grades in a row because of his dedication to auspiciousness, and then temporarily take the position of commander from the rank of eight grades.
After he has almost established the brocade guard, he will kick it away again.
Before he could speak, another inner supervisor hurriedly ran in at the door.
Hey? And Xiangrui?
However, this thought only flashed through the minds of the ministers, because they noticed that this inner prison was different from the previous herald.
The heralds were all dissatisfied, and their faces were almost full of laughter.
And this inner prison is full of gloom......
What else could be worrying on this great day?
Could it be that Nanban has regained the land one after another? Or is it that Hu'er buckles the edges, and the new city is destroyed?
Or is it a canal......
The ministers watched the inner eunuch run to the root of His Majesty's ear and talked for a long time, and they didn't know what he was talking about.
But His Majesty's face was visibly gloomy.
It wasn't until after the inner prison retreated that His Majesty looked at the ministers in the palace with a gloomy face:
"Now there is no need to fabricate charges, no need to hide it? Directly change the force to kill? Yes, my good courtiers. β
What do you mean? None of the ministers understood what Yang He was talking about.
Yang He didn't bother to explain to them, so he only said with a calm face:
"Immortal seeds, topographic maps, and new farm tools, although Hou Shigui is only passing on on behalf of him, he has also worked hard, and Hou Shigui has been promoted to four grades in a row, so as to temporarily lead the Jinyi Guard from the rank of seventh.
His mother, Hou's godson, was promoted to the rank of Sanpin. β
After that, seeing that everyone in the hall was going to say more, his face sank again:
"This matter has been decided, there is no need to discuss it again, retreat!"
Yang He's arbitrariness is not the first time, and all the ministers sighed, and at the same time looked at Hou Puru.
Hou Shigui's several rewards, His Majesty did not mention Hou Puru half a word.
On the contrary, it was Hou Shigui's mother, Hou, who was promoted again and again.
In just a year, she became the lady of Sanpin.
One of the doorways, tsk tsk.
Seeing the mocking looks on the faces of his colleagues, Hou Puru also knew why.
At the moment, Chu Jing is a person who knows that he can be a scholar in Beijing, and he is all relying on the lord of Dongyang, King Chen.
Your Majesty is afraid that he has already regarded himself as King Chen's person in his heart.
Thinking of this, Hou Puru couldn't help but feel the cool breeze around him.
When the Hou family was in his father's generation, it had long since declined.
No matter how hard he works, by the time he reaches his own generation, his connections have almost been exhausted.
If you only rely on hard work, you won't be able to get ahead.
It's weird, who told me that when I entered Beijing for the assessment, I met her......
On that day, Hou Puru naturally didn't dare to tell the truth to his son.
He and Yang Wentong were not forced by Yang Wentong when he was drunk.
It was during the weak crown period, and the two had already met.
How...... But the door is not right......
After leaving the palace, Hou Puru was about to return to the palace, but found that the frame of the Dongyang County Lord's Mansion had been parked in front of the gate of his mansion.
"Wen Tong, how can you have time to come over today?"
After welcoming Yang Wentong into the main hall, Hou Puru asked straight to the point.
Yang Wentong didn't treat himself as an outsider in the Hou Mansion, and complained as he sat on the chair:
"Isn't it your son who didn't go to the house for three days?"
"Changping? And what did he do? Today, His Majesty gave him four consecutive promotions, this kid, he doesn't say anything to his father, alas, after all, he has grown up. β
Thinking that he still didn't understand what Changping had done to make His Majesty appoint him as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Hou Puru was disappointed.
I feel that my father has really failed to do it.
When Yang Wentong saw him like this, he stood up and walked behind him to gently gentleen the corners of his forehead:
"You kid, it's really not a fuel-efficient lamp, yesterday you asked me for a few names, and this morning I hurried out of the city with someone, I thought he was going to kill someone.
Who knew that he came back injured instead, and said that he was robbed by mountain bandits, and his subordinates were tall and big, and the mountain bandits dared to rob him? β
"What's going on? Changping can be a big problem?! β
Hearing this, Hou Puru pushed Yang Wentong's hand away and stood up and asked.
Yang Wentong glared at him resentfully:
"You can't listen to me, he's just slashed in the shoulder, and he'll be raised for a few days, it's not a big deal.
But Ziming, I don't know what happened to your son, you can't talk about being a father, and in the future, you still have to be closer to him. β
Hou Puru was still worried about Hou Shigui's safety, but now he looked at Yang Wentong with a vigilant face and stepped back:
"Wen Tong, didn't we say okay? I'll do things for you Chen Wangfu, you can't beat my family's idea! β
It's no wonder that Hou Puru is vigilant, in the past, Mo said that he was close to his family.
Whenever Hou Puru mentioned his family, Yang Wentong would lose his temper, and even threatened to kill his entire family, so that he would no longer miss those people.
But now it's unusual, so that he is closer to Changping?
When things go wrong, there must be demons, and this crazy woman doesn't know what bad water she is holding in her heart.
Yang Wentong shook his head and said:
"Don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame your son for being too promising, supervising the power of hundreds of officials, who in the world doesn't want to be close to him?
And this is not what I meant, it is the meaning of Chen Wangfu, Ziming, I Chen Wangfu has raised you for many years, you should also contribute, right? β
"Inspectors? What do you mean? Changping, isn't he an official who communicates the news to His Majesty? Why is it related to the supervision of hundreds of officials again? β
Seeing Hou Puru's look of surprise, Yang Wentong covered his mouth and chuckled:
"It seems that your father is really a failure, this morning in the court, my imperial uncle announced the matter of Changping at the court meeting?
If it was just a matter of spreading the news, the emperor could accept his fate in private, so why should he announce it in front of the civil and military officials at the court meeting?
Besides, to Changping to promote the fourth grade in a row, a seventh-grade petty official, and temporarily take the position of the third grade, is it just a matter of spreading the news?
Manchu courtiers, I'm afraid only you will be so naΓ―ve, right?
But speaking of which, if Changping hadn't told me personally, even I wouldn't have guessed what the brocade-clothed pro-army was doing.
Your son is better than you! β
Hou Puru has been in the court for many years, and after Yang Wentong mentioned it, he also understood the key.
was about to go out immediately, but was stopped by Yang Wentong:
"What are you going to do?"
Hou Puru didn't go back to the tunnel
"That's my son after all! My own son! Your Majesty has pushed him into the fire pit, and I will not sit idly by! β
After that, he went out of the main hall, found the housekeeper to arrange a carriage, and went to the inn where Hou Shigui was.
After arriving at the inn, Hou Puru pounced.
Guo Lianqing, who had just returned to the inn, told Hou Puru:
"Hou ...... Hou Gongzi has been recruited into the palace by His Majesty. β
Hearing this, Hou Puru thought to himself that his son was over.
