Chapter 686: Divergence

Longxi is the first county of Yan in the past, it is equivalent to Hedong, and now Longxi is building a big river canal, the head of the county here, it is not trivial, if after taking office, by building the river canal, it is very likely that the official fortune will be prosperous.

And Lu Boyan is so active, of course he hopes that Jing Guan will take office.

This is also a common phenomenon in officialdom throughout history.

After hearing his words, Lu Chen asked, "Oh? Who is Lord Lu recommending? ”

Lu Boyan said: "Under the Prime Minister's Mansion, the right Shi Jiang is the same as Lord Jiang. ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help frowning slightly, and looked at Xue Huairen, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Nei Youshi is the administrative staff of the Prime Minister's Office, and his rank is a fourth-grade civil official, who is responsible for sorting out the copywriting materials in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Xue Huairen is his top boss.

At the beginning, the scenery was integrated, and there were several Jing officials under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and this Jiang Tong was one of them.

Seeing Lu Chen looking at him, Xue Huairen pretended not to see it, lowered his head slightly, and did not express any opinions.

Now it is the imperial historian Lu Boyan who directly recommends it, Xue Huairen is not good at saying anything directly, but some people can't help it, Sima Wen came out and said: "King Yu, although Lord Jiang is outstanding, he has no experience in governing a place, if he is the head of Longxi County, Weichen really dare not agree." ”

He said it so bluntly, Lu Boyan couldn't help but justify: "Lord Sima's words are wrong, Lord Jiang is an honest official, and he has done so much internal history in the Prime Minister's Mansion, sorting out books, discussing political affairs with Lord Xiangguo, and knowing the people's livelihood in various parts of our country well, it is also very suitable for him to be the head of Longxi County." ”

He is right, the right minister is the head of the civil officials, Jiang Tong works in the prime minister's office, and the things he comes into contact with are also the people's livelihood of the country and political policy issues, Lu Chen couldn't help but start pondering when he heard this.

At this time, Sima Wen said again: "Although Lord Lu said so, the head of a county is a feudal official, not that you understand the people's livelihood, understand the national conditions, and be competent as an honest official, so Weichen still thinks it is inappropriate." ”

"You!" Lu Boyan first glared at Sima Wen fiercely, and then said to Lu Chen: "King! ”

Just as he was about to continue his defense, Lu Chen had already waved his hand and said, "Okay! Don't fight anymore, this king needs to think about this matter, and retreat first! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he directly waved his big hand and scattered the court.

On the way out of the palace, people walked together in twos and threes, and some Jing officials gathered around Lu Boyan, and some people said dissatisfiedly: "Lord Lu, Lord Sima is too much!" Isn't this a clear non-wanting of me to take office! ”

Another humanitarian: "If the head of Longxi County is appointed by Lord Jiang Tong, then the big river canal will be completed, and with a few years of political achievements, Lord Jiang will be very likely to go up to the court and participate in the court politics. ”

"Yes, Lord Lu, you should advise the king again about this matter......

After taking a deep breath, Lu Boyan said faintly: "Sima Wen's intentions are sinister. ”

After a pause, he said again: "But this matter is not something that he Sima Wen can control alone......

On the other side, Sima Wen walked with Li Miaocai, who shook his head slightly and said, "Master Sima and Master Lu have always had contradictions, and they will have grievances about today's incident." ”

Hearing this, Sima Wen raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, and said, "I'm afraid Master Li has misunderstood, the reason why I don't approve of Jiang Tong's appointment as the head of Longxi County is completely out of consideration for the country, not personal grudges. ”

As he spoke, he said again: "By the way, why didn't Master Li stand up against it today?" ”

Li Miaocai said: "I don't know much about Jiang Tong, so I don't dare to make a conclusion." But Brother Sima, do you think there is hope for Jiang Tong in this matter? ”

"It's hard to say right now......"

Sima Wen is not absolutely sure whether the king will agree to let Jiang Tong serve as the head of Longxi County, but the differences between him and Lu Boyan are getting bigger and bigger, which is inevitable.

However, for Lu Chen, the king, these are harmless, and it is not a bad thing for the ministers to have differences.

And after the next dynasty, Lu Boyan also found Jiang Tong for the first time, and when the latter saw him, he hurriedly bent down and saluted, and said respectfully: "Lord Lu." ”

Lu Boyan said: "Lord Jiang, you should know about the corruption of Huang Yuanwen, the head of Longxi County, right?" ”

Jiang Tong nodded: "Xia Guan has heard a little, what's wrong Lord Lu?" ”

"Hey!" Lu Boyan sighed first, and then said straight to the point: "Today's court meeting, the king is furious, and has ordered his beheading, but the position of the head of Longxi County is vacant, and the official originally wanted to help Lord Jiang and strongly recommend it in front of the king. ”

"This!" When Jiang Tong heard this, he immediately became anxious and said, "How can Master Sima be like this, the lower officials have not offended him anywhere." ”

"Hey! Who makes the family a product of the dynasty, in front of the king, there is still some weight in speaking. Lu Boyan sighed lightly again, and continued: "But there is still hope for this matter, Lord Jiang's top priority is to enter the palace in person and meet Concubine Jing!" Please say good things for you, as long as Niangniang says a word to the king, this matter will be done. ”

"Clearly, the lower officials will enter the palace to ask to see Concubine Jing's mother......" Jiang Tong said again and again.

King Jing used to be the monarch of Jingguo, in Jiang Tong's opinion, he is now hopeful of being transferred to the head of Longxi County, and it should be no problem to ask Niangniang to say a few kind words to the king, and when he arrived at the palace, he also asked to see King Jing for the first time.

At this time, King Jing was in the back garden of the palace, and several children were also chasing and playing in the garden, after hearing Xiaoyue's report, King Jing raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Jiang Tong?" ”

"Yes, Niangniang, Lord Jiang is waiting outside." The maid Satsuki said.

"En......" King Jing pondered for a moment and said, "Let him come in." ”

"No." Satsuki answered, then turned away.

It didn't take long for Jiang Tong to be led in, and after he came in, he hurriedly walked to King Jing with small steps, and then knelt on the ground, Shi Li said: "Weichen Jiang Tong, see Concubine Jing Niangniang"

"Master Jiang doesn't have to be polite." King Jing waved his hand slightly, but at this time, the third prince Lu Zheng ran over, the little guy had never seen Jiang Tong, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Mother, mother, who is he?" ”

"And besides, his beard is so long......"
