After bidding farewell to the Zhongshu Order, the temple ministers also began to discuss and ponder the position of the Zhongshu Order, of course, this position of the official office can not be directly ordered, must be selected by the Son of Heaven, and the official office will be promoted to be able to serve, among the three orders, the position of the Zhongshu Order, it is really a little embarrassing, saying that its status is not high enough, and he is among the three orders.

Responsible for convening the court meeting, ending the court meeting, in the process of the temple court meeting, only the Zhongshu Ling and the Son of Heaven can make a ruling, and even can reprimand the ministers, depriving the ministers of the right to speak, the court meeting is a place where the ministers discuss the major affairs of the country, and have absolute power in this place, and can even draw up edicts, this position cannot be said to be low.

However, to say that this position is very important, the Zhongshu Order can only play a role in the court discussion and the drafting of edicts, and at other times it is basically idle, without any real power, and there are not even many subordinate officials, therefore, this position must be the heart of the Son of Heaven, and at the same time old and suitable for idle ministers to do, if a person always wants to come against the Son of Heaven, such as Yu Translation, Zhong Changtong, I am afraid that the court will become extremely chaotic.

But in today's temples, can you really find ministers who are dedicated to the Son of Heaven and are willing to support the elderly?

Everyone's eyes are on Xun Linggong, maybe Xun Linggong is okay, he is old, and he is exceptionally loyal to the Son of Heaven, in all fairness, he is the most suitable for this position, the quality of this group of ministers is still very good, the Son of Heaven in the Houde Hall has such an idea, however, he originally wanted Xun You, who was far away in the Wa Kingdom, to come back to serve as this position.

However, Xun You actually went to the table and refused the Son of Heaven's conquest, and even made it clear: The minister should die with Si.

According to Xun You's meaning, many of his enlightenment policies in Wadao have not been fully implemented, and he is still writing a book called "The Book of Enlightenment", it is conceivable that he will not leave Wadao easily, perhaps, he is only thinking about what he can do for the Han before his death.

In fact, he has done a lot, when it comes to today's Wa Island, there are 3,000 students from Wa Dao in Taixue, these people are more like Central Plains people than the Central Plains people in any aspect, speaking fluent Yayan, quite a bit of the taste of ancient sages, a barbaric and barren remote island, stunned Xun You to make a Confucian holy land.

And since the Han Dynasty began to educate the states, there will always be some turmoil, killing incidents, except for Wadao, now it is extraordinarily peaceful, because of Xun Yu's relocation policy, even can't tell the difference between the people of Youning and the people of Wadao, Liu Xi is also helpless, for this old minister, he has no way to force him to return, if the old man is angry, it will be gone halfway, then he Liu Xi will not have to carry a cauldron of eternity?

In desperation, Liu Xi had no choice but to set his sights on Lao Shangshu in the court, but he still had to ask Xun Yu what he meant first, so Lao Shangshu put down the matter in his hand and rushed to the Houde Hall again, but this time, Lao Shangshu looked a little energetic, and I don't know how many times better than the previous appearance of the rotten wood.

Lao Shangshu is already handsome, these days he has cheered up, and his whole body exudes a kind of fairy energy, his long gray hair and beard, and his ruddy face make him look like a fairy, Lao Shangshu sat in the Houde Palace, caressing his long beard, "The minister understands what His Majesty means, the minister is old, there are many things in Shangshutai, and a young man should be allowed to handle it... Zhongshutai is a good place to retire. ”

"In this way, I'm afraid that I will miss Ling Gong's talent..."

"The old man is so old, and he still occupies the position of Shangshu, that is the talent of the wrong people, Your Majesty, although the minister should not speak like this, but the minister hopes that the position of this Shangshu order can be handed over to that Zhuge Liang to serve, as for the order of the servant, it can be handed over to Sima Yi...", Xun Yu said slowly, Liu Xi was shocked, and hurriedly calmed down, and then asked: "Why?" ”

"Zhuge Zhicai is not inferior to the minister, but for a long time, he has not had a place where he can display his talents... From time to time, an old man like Guo Jia occupies a position, and these young people can't give full play to their talents, and this person can be of great use. ”

"What about Sima Yi? Why can't he be allowed to serve as Shang Shuling? ”

"Sima Zhicai, is also extraordinary, in the hands of His Majesty, he must be a better blade, even beyond Zhuge Lai, however, he is too cautious, and spare his life, and does not have the courage of Zhuge , if he is allowed to serve as Shang Shuling, he will be afraid of unfavorable political affairs, will implicate himself, so he is unwilling to carry out all things, not to mention, this person is self-interested... Your Majesty should keep him by his side and take care of him personally. ”

"Everyone has the most suitable place for themselves, Sima is by His Majesty's side, serving as the commander of the chamberlain, with His Majesty to rely on, he can deploy a lot of things, and he will not be afraid, at that time, he will play a better role than Zhuge , just like the previous law, if His Majesty asks Sima Yi to do it, I am afraid that the old man will not have the opportunity to talk to him, and he will be attacked by thieves halfway...", Xun Yu did not avoid it at all, and said with a smile.

"Xun Linggong's words are wrong, how dare he do this?"

"Haha, Your Majesty, even if he didn't dare to kill the minister, but he still dared to do it if he detained the minister, and after the law was implemented, he still dared to do it if he brought someone to rescue the minister, of course, Zhuge Liang could also think of this, but he didn't bother to do it, the so-called gentleman is the easiest to be bullied...", Xun Yu shook his head and said slowly.

Liu Xi nodded, in fact, the thoughts in his heart were the same as Xun Yu, so when Xun Yu proposed, he would be so shocked, he didn't like the ministers to guess what he thought in his heart, it would bring him a kind of unease, but looking at the old man in front of him, he still let go of his jealousy.

"Then you'll have to work hard to make a public effort..."

"Respectfully!"

In August of the sixteenth year of Yankang, in the second month after the death of Duke Lü, the official order of the temple was issued, with Xun Linggong as the Zhongshu Order, Zhuge Liang as the Shangshu Order, and Sima Yi as the Servant Zhongling.

At this time, Sima Yi was still in the locality, in order to divide and rule, when he learned of the appointment of the Son of Heaven, Sima Yi only smiled bitterly for a moment, if it was in the past, as a servant commander, he would not be too happy, but since the last time he chatted with the Son of Heaven for a whole day, he was very content in the face of such an appointment and dismissal.

Even if it is not as good as the Shang Shu Ling, it is also the three orders of the same level, and it can be regarded as a place to be able to display his strengths, which is already a very good treatment, of course, becoming the three orders, he still can't return to the temple early, the inspection of the place is not over, just after the appointment, when he conducts the inspection again, things will go a lot smoother, and all the faces are smiling.

Everywhere he went, no one dared to ignore it, the officials came to visit, and even, many people had written letters, informing them of their admiration for him, Sima Yi just looked at those letters very calmly, and then sent someone to the Houde Hall for the Son of Heaven to see.

.........

Yuan Yao is sitting in the study, looking at the harvests in various places, his face is full of smiles, this year, Jianning Changdao has achieved great success in both minerals and agriculture, this time, he is really famous in overseas mansions, not by his own background, nor by relying on the clan.... Well.. Okay, he also built a domain here, but that's not the point.

The point is that he relied on his ability to convince the officials of the overseas provinces and gain their respect.

Now Yuan Yao is very happy, the Jianning Long Island he governs has surpassed the overseas islands, whether it is the state of Zhi'an, or the grain and minerals, they are ranked first, and if it continues, it will stay up until the end of this year, and in the next year, he can walk in front of his brother with his chest held high, and let him implement this policy throughout the country, so that I am afraid that the wealth created by the overseas government for the Han will be more!

Yuan Yao was thinking about these things, and suddenly, Ling Tong hurriedly ran in, holding the Di newspaper, and said with a smile: "Shaodu Dudu, the latest Di Bao is here, and the three orders have been replaced!" Yuan Yao hurriedly got up and took the Di Bao from him, the matter of Lu Gong's death had already been reported in the Di Bao, and they, the people overseas, also learned the news, and the people in the overseas mansion also saw him off.

Of course, for the new position, they also have a lot of speculation, many officials think that Zhou Dudu is the most likely to take over the Zhongshu Order, of course, Yuan Yao has never thought so, Yuan Yao lowered his head, looked at it for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Sure enough, as I thought...", Ling Tong looked at him with some admiration, and said: "Shaodu Governor is really a god!" ”

"You said earlier that the governor of the capital would not be in charge, and you specifically said that these three people, and sure enough, this is the case, admire, admire!"

Yuan Yao shook his head and said, "The Metropolitan Governor is still young, how could His Majesty let him go to Zhongshutai to retire?" The overseas government is thriving, and Your Majesty can't wait for the Metropolitan Governor to seize more benefits for the Han Dynasty, alas, it's a pity, I can't congratulate him in person..."

"Now, the Shaodu Governor and your two masters are ranked in the third order, and after a while, maybe the Dadu Governor can also enter the temple to serve as the third order, and at that time, the Shaodu Governor you are the disciple of the three orders, a veritable disciple of the three orders... I see, more than ten years later, maybe I will also call you Yuan Linggong, if I can live to that time, you will have to find me a good errand. ”

"Haha, okay, I'll let you be in charge of the overseas mansion when the time comes... of the construction of the Domain. ”

"Hahahaha!"

The two laughed.
