Xia Yan planted it inexplicably, this time he planted it more wronged than last time, last time he at least knew that it was Yang Ming who was against him, and this time he didn't even know that it was Yang Cong and Lu Bing who did it.

Of course, this doesn't mean that he is a political idiot, he doesn't even know that someone is cheating, mainly this time Yang Cong's plan is too unexpected, Lu Bing's performance is even more unexpected, he has been loyal to Jiajing's side, who would have thought that he let this fire go.

Xia Yan didn't expect it, and Jiajing naturally didn't expect it, not only did Jiajing not realize that Lu Bing was secretly playing ghosts, but he even felt that Lu Bing had performed quite well recently.

This milk brother, yes, two old cases, in less than two hours he was clear, the official's tent was on fire, he was unusually calm, not affected by the fire at all, always waiting outside his imperial tent, this kind of performance, enough to take on a big responsibility.

Therefore, after returning to the capital, he immediately promoted Lu Bing to the commander of the Jinyi Guard, responsible for the guards of the entire palace and the imperial city, this position seems to be about the same size as his father Lu Song, but in fact it is much more than his father's command, because Lu Song is just an idle position, and Lu Bing is a real position, and five of the seventeen guards of Jinyi Wei are already under his jurisdiction, and they are almost three.

Lu Bing didn't expect that he just sued a black state, and then set a fire, and was actually promoted, these two things, Yang Cong asked him to do it, he was still a little hairy in his heart.

It was also because of these two things that Lu Bing was promoted, but Xia Yan was almost thrown into the cold palace.

These two things, Xia Yan really behaved clumsily, and asked him to recommend an official to serve as the secretary of the household department in Nanjing, and he actually recommended a corrupt official and asked him to be responsible for the draft of the fold ticket, and he actually burned all the folds!

Can such a performance make him the head of the cabinet?

This guy will float like this once he has his will, and he won't float to the sky if he doesn't teach him a lesson!

After returning to the capital, Jiajing appointed the crown prince and the prince, the secretary of the ministry, and the scholar of the Huagai Palace, Li Shi, as the first assistant of the cabinet, in order to warn Xia Yan, not only that, but he also promoted Zhan Ruoshui, the left attendant of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, replacing Lin Tingang, who was old, he was also warning Xia Yan and his party to make them all sober and sober, and not to think that this court was their world.

Jiajing's supernatural operation really made Yang Cong very happy, and he didn't expect that the two yin tricks could have this effect, such a good situation, he couldn't miss it.

At this time, he thought of Wang Xuan and Hu Zongxian, these two people's palace examination results were not ideal, Hu Zongxian was only ranked at the bottom of the second grade, Wang Xuan fell directly to the top three, and they did not do well in the later court examination, and they were not qualified to enter the Hanlin Academy at all.

If they don't help, they are likely to be sent to the local government to be county magistrates, or even state judges or something, and it will be more troublesome to be promoted in the future.

How can this help?

It's very simple, go directly to the secretary of the ministry, that is, the current cabinet chief assistant Li Shi!

Jiajing promoted Zhan Ruoshui to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Yang Cong sent out a letter of worship and asked to see Li Shi, the first assistant of the cabinet.

This guy, a newcomer who has just entered the officialdom, actually went to find the first assistant of the cabinet of the current dynasty, will people take care of him?

Not to mention, he just voted out this post, and that afternoon, Li Shi sent someone to reply, if you are free, please come to the house tomorrow afternoon.

Yang Cong was not ambiguous, and the next afternoon, as soon as he came back from work, he came to visit Li Shi with a generous gift.

Li Shi was also surprisingly polite to him, as soon as he heard that he was coming, Li Shi actually ran to the door of the inner courtyard to greet him, this is already the most polite, generally less than the level of six books, so it is difficult for the cabinet chief assistant to get up to greet him, Li Shi actually greeted him at the door of the inner courtyard, which is beyond the treatment of the six books.

However, Yang Cong knew that Li Shi was not giving him face, but giving face to Jiajing, or to the Lu family, because the news that he and Lu Ling'er were about to marry had spread in the capital, and Jiajing was obviously "biased" to support Yangming's line during this time, so the officials in the capital faintly felt that Jiajing had treated Yang Cong as his own because of Lu Ling'er's relationship.

Of course, Yang Cong knew that Jiajing was not biased because of his relationship, but mainly because Xia Yan was miserable by him at this time, which made Jiajing feel that Xia Yan had begun to be pampered and arrogant, so he pulled up the Yangming line to deal with Xia Yan and his party.

To put it simply, Jiajing actually wants Yangming Yimai to have the strength to compete with Xia Yan's party, so that the two sides can fight unbreakable!

Of course, he wouldn't tell Li Shi about this, on the contrary, he wanted to make Li Shi feel that Jiajing really regarded him as a cronie.

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Yang Cong said directly: "Lord Shoufu, the main reason why the lower official came to visit this time is to have the cheekiness to invite Lord Shoufu to preside over the wedding of the lower official, I wonder if the lower official has this honor?" ”

This one!

Aren't you a rising star in the Yangming lineage, let me preside over the wedding, a few meanings, isn't there a big guy in the Yangming lineage?

It stands to reason that it shouldn't.

Li Shi was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to understand something, this may be what the emperor meant, after all, the head of the cabinet is a very popular minister, if he goes to preside over the wedding, the Lu family will have more face.

Perhaps the emperor felt that it was a bit ridiculous to issue a holy edict for this kind of private matter, so he asked Yang Cong to say it himself.

The emperor's face can't be swept away, he was just stunned for a moment, and then said with interest: "Your marriage with the little girl of the Lu family was held in the capital, speaking of which, the old man and the little girl of the Lu family have known each other for more than ten years, and when I first saw her in the palace, she was only five or six years old, and more than ten years have passed." ”

What he means is that as long as your marriage is held in the capital, let the old man officiate the wedding, no problem.

Of course, Yang Cong knew that the old man had misunderstood, and he didn't break it, but said embarrassedly: "This, the marriage between Xiaguan and Ling'er was held in the capital, but Xiaguan had already set a marriage when he was in his hometown, and the so-called poor wife must not be forgotten, and Xiaguan is going to do it together this time, hehe, hehe." ”

Dizzy, marry two at a time, your heart is really big enough, and the Lu family can agree.

Li Shi said curiously: "Oh, what kind of girl is it, she can win the favor of the champion." ”

Yang Cong said with some embarrassment: "It is the daughter of Lord Zhang Yue, the right of the Imperial Palace." ”

Li Shi heard this, fainted at the wrong point, this Zhang Yue's daughter is still a poor wife, it is rumored that the emperor is about to promote Zhang Yue to the left deputy capital of the Imperial Palace, after Tu Qiao arrived, it is estimated that this Metropolitan Procuratorate is presided over by Zhang Yue.

This kid is really not simple, not only did the emperor not object to this marriage, but also promoted Zhang Yue immediately, what a grace this is!

How did he know that this was the result of Lu Bing's begging Li to go to Jiajing, of course Jiajing didn't want to see Yang Cong marry two at a time, but the nurse had spoken, and he couldn't take care of others.

As for promoting Zhang Yue, that was Jiajing's long-standing idea, but because of Zhang Zhang's relationship, it has not been implemented, and Zhang Xuan is about to burp at this time, so naturally there is no problem.

Li Shi didn't know that there were so many curves and curves in it, he only thought that Jiajing had already regarded Yang Cong as a key training object, otherwise it would be impossible to be so good to Yang Cong.

This kid has a bright future, even if it's not for himself, for his children and grandchildren, he has to make good friends!

Thinking of this, he said without hesitation: "It turned out to be a double happiness, this kind of big event, of course the old man wants to join in the fun and be happy." ”
