"Because Zhang Ju is Xu Jie's student!" Before Luo Xin could speak, Yun Zhiqiu pouted and said.

"Xu Jie, not only Zhang Juzheng, is a student." Zhang Xun said lightly.

"And why do you say?" Yun Zhiqiu asked unconvinced.

Zhang Xun's gaze became deep and said, "You only need to think about Yang Tinghe, Xia Yan, and Yan Song, you should know." ”

Haizheng raised his eyebrows and said, "The ending of these three people is very bad. ”

"Not bad!" Zhang Xun nodded and said: "Xu Jie doesn't want to fall into that kind of fate, so he wants to leave a way back for himself and choose a successor he can trust." Once chosen, he will send this person a grace that he can't repay for a lifetime, and then do his best to send this person to the pinnacle of Ming power. In this way, after Xu Jie's old man returned to his hometown, that person had to protect him and his family.

Zhang Juzheng is the candidate selected by Xu Jie. What we have to figure out now is that Xu Jie, who has many students, why did he choose Zhang Juzheng alone? ”

"Because Zhang Juzheng's knowledge and mind are extremely high, surpassing other students of Xu Jie." Tao Xingyan said.

"It's one aspect." Zhang Xun nodded and said, "But it's not critical." I studied Xu Jie's past few decades, and found that at the beginning, he was not so special to Zhang Juzheng, he treated all students equally, Zhang Juzheng stood out little by little, and finally became Xu Jie's only choice. ”

"How did he do it?" Luo Xin asked.

"Zhang Juzheng has a very strong talent and a strong mind, which is beyond doubt. But at the beginning, it was not that there were people who had the same strong talents and minds as Zhang Juzheng, but their approach was completely different from that of Zhang Juzheng. After they showed their talents, they began to be proud of their talents, and were praised by Xu Jie several times, and they were pampered and coquettish.

But what about Zhang Juzheng?

On the contrary, he became more and more respectful to Xu Jie, no matter what task Xu Jie's gave him, he had already thought of a complete plan, but he didn't implement it immediately, but asked Xu Jie's instructions in advance. After the matter was done, he came to Xu Jie to report as soon as possible. Then he would say outside that this is all the credit of Xu Jie, and he was able to achieve this little result because of Xu Jie's cultivation. Such a student, you say, can Xu Jie not devote himself to training?

Later, because of bad reasons, Zhang Juzheng and Xu Jie had some dirty problems. But at that time, Xu Jie found that it was too late to train another person to replace Zhang Juzheng, and the situation forced Zhang Juzheng to rely on Xu Jie again, so the two reconciled again, but all this benefited from the impression that Zhang Juzheng had left on Xu Jie more than ten years before. ”

Luo Xin was silent for a moment, looked at Zhang Xun and said, "You said that Zhang Juzheng's example is to let me know how to get along with His Majesty?" ”

"Not bad!" Zhang Xun nodded and said: "Your Majesty actually forgot about the matter of promising you to be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, which shows that your impression in Your Majesty's heart is weakening." Therefore, I think you should be like Zhang Juzheng and often report some work to His Majesty. Always ask for instructions and report often, so that Your Majesty will not forget you, trust you, and in the end cannot do without you. ”

Luo Xin was silent for a moment and said, "I understand. ”

"Hehe......" Zhang Xun smiled: "What do you think of the four members of the cabinet?" Which is the hardest to deal with? ”

"Now it's Xu Jie, and the future is Gao Gong!" Luo Xin sighed and said, "I'm afraid this future won't be too long." Gao Gong is conceited and not broad-minded enough, once he turns his face, the consequences are unpredictable. ”

"yes!" Zhang Xun said seriously: "So, even if you join forces with Gao Gong, don't get too close." With distance, there will be scruples. ”

"yes!" Luo Xin rubbed his eyebrows and said: "Now that Xu Jie, as the first assistant of the cabinet, he has won the hearts of the people all over the world by rehabilitating and rehabilitating the officials who were deposed and deceased. Xu Jie's is enough for me to deal with. The high arch is also a highly unstable factor. But I'm still too weak to wrestle with them directly, so I can only survive in the cracks. ”

"It seems that you still have to suffer some grievances in front of the high arch!" Zhang Xun said.

"It doesn't matter, how can there be an official who is not wronged?" Luo Xin said lightly.

"If only you were mentally prepared for this!"

"Rest assured, I've always been prepared. But I also need you to remind me more often, otherwise it will be bad for me to forget. ”

"Hahaha......"

The five of them laughed. Laughter came from the study, and Dai'er faintly heard the laughter in the room, and the worry between her eyebrows faded a lot.

"No, you haven't gathered all the officials since you took office, have you?"

"On the first day of taking office, I came to the fullest. However, I let them all disperse. On the first day, I didn't have a full understanding of the Ministry of Rites, so it was not good to say anything. ”

"However, it's been seven days since you took office, so you should have met."

"See you then."

The next day.

Luo Xin summoned all the officials of the Ministry of Rites in the Ministry of Rites, and in fact, all the officials of the Ministry of Rites had been waiting for this day for a long time.

On the day he took office, Luo Xin just said a few words, dismissed everyone, and then locked himself in the room, read all kinds of copywriting, and everyone knew that when Luo Xin was smooth, they would be summoned. And this day will not be far away, because Luo Xin used to be a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and he already has a certain understanding of the Ministry of Rites, and it will be very fast to understand the Ministry of Rites. So, after hearing the news, they all came quickly.

Not a single one was absent!

Luo Xin was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, so Tao Xingyan, who had not had a seat since he followed Luo Xin to the south and returned to Beijing, was transferred to the Ministry of Rites and took over the position of his attendant in the Ministry of Rites.

At first, Xu Jie didn't agree, but Gao Gong and Ma Fang made a lot of effort, Luo Xin also greeted Yan Na, and Yan Na also gave Luo Xin face, which made Xu Jie very helpless, and finally let Tao Xingyan enter the Ministry of Rites, but the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. At the same time, Xu Jie also knew in his heart that in the future, this Ministry of Rites would be Luo Xin's base, and it would be difficult for him to intervene.

At this time, Tao Xingyan was introducing Luo Xin to the officials of the Ministry of Rites, in fact, most of the officials here, Luo Xin knew them, after all, he also served as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites for a period of time. But he still listened very carefully, and this was a procedure that showed the majesty of the Ministry of Rites.

The Ministry of Rites is very large, and it is also one of the six.

Under Luo Xin, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, there are also left and right attendants. Now Tao Xingyan is the left waiter, and Emperor Longqing's original teacher Chen Yiqin is the right waiter.

And then there is the Department of Secretaries, the Department of Officials.

The Qing Officials Division is also divided into the Ritual Cleaning Officials Division, the Ancestral Sacrifice Cleaning Officials Division, the Lord Rong Cleaning Officials Division, and the Fine Diet Cleaning Officials Division.
