Yu Shenxing has entered Beijing!

Although there were not many people waiting for Yu Shenxing in front of Bei'an Gate, the news of Yu Shenxing's entry into the palace and his reinstatement spread throughout the capital at a very fast speed.

All of a sudden, the capital city, which had been silent for several days, exploded in an instant like boiling water poured on the snow, and Yu Shenxing entered the palace with his front foot, and countless ministers on the back foot impeached Yu Shenxing, ignoring the minister's festival and welcoming the king.

In the court, criticism arose, and they accused Yu Shenxing of being greedy for power, having no integrity, flattering the king, ignoring the overall situation, and being a person who deceived the world and stole fame.

Especially at the moment when the imperial examination is about to be held, countless scholars have gathered in the capital, which has made the influence of this news infinitely expanded.

However, these Yu Shenxing himself is not clear for the time being, he came to the palace with Wang An and Ye Xianggao, Ye Xianggao said rudeness, and hurried back to the cabinet, in fact, the reason why Ye Xianggao and Wang An were sent today to greet Yu Shenxing is to consider that he may directly enter the cabinet to do things, Wang An is a eunuch after all, he can be responsible for arranging the trivial matters before and after Yu Shenxing's entry into Beijing, but in terms of government affairs, it is necessary for a person to take Yu Shenxing to get familiar with it as soon as possible, But now that Yu Shenxing has proposed to take a day off before entering the cabinet to do business, Ye Xianggao has no need to stay.

In the past few days, the cabinet has been busy with all kinds of things, and in the days he has been away, he must have accumulated a lot of government affairs to deal with, so he will not accompany Yu Shenxing to slowly reply to the decree.

Entering the Chengtian Gate, Wang Anyu carefully arranged to wait in a side hall, and he was about to go in to pass the ceremony, but when he raised his eyes, he saw a team of people coming towards him, and the leader was the eunuch Chen Ju, who was the master of ceremonies.

"I've seen Gonggong Chen!"

Although it is said that they are both known as the giants of the inner palace, Wang An knows very well in his heart that his status cannot be compared with Chen Ju, so he has been respectfully tight, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Chen Ju didn't put up any shelf in the day, returned the salute with a smile, and said.

"The prince has worked hard today, presumably this is Yu Gong, right?"

"Yes, this is the Yu Gong Yu Pavilion Elder that our family is going to greet today at the behest of His Majesty!"

Wang An replied and turned around.

"Elder Yu Ge, this is Gonggong Chen, the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant eunuch!"

"Old man Yu Shenxing, I have seen Grandpa Chen!"

Looking at Wang An's attitude, Yu Shenxing was able to guess seven or eight points of Chen Ju's identity, and after Wang An's introduction, he got up, and simply bowed his hand, his expression was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was not even as polite as seeing Wang An at the city gate, but his attitude made Wang An's face look better and better, although he was very respectful to Chen Ju in his days, but in the end it was the person around the emperor, Wang An's arrogance over the years, and he really didn't feel worse than Chen Ju in his heart.

But helplessly, no matter in the inner palace or outside the court, whenever the first person to mention eunuchs, there is no doubt that Chen Ju will be, although Wang An is not uncomfortable in his heart, but today he saw that Yu Shenxing was much warmer than Chen Ju and himself, and he couldn't help but be a little happier in his heart.

"Yu Ge is in the cabinet, and there will be many uses for dealing with the celebrant in the future, we will both serve His Majesty, so we should be close to him!"

After a short period of joy, Wang An enthusiastically said between Chen Ju and Yu Shenxing, this is the first civil official who has such a good attitude towards him except for Sun Tianguan, and Wang Gonggong can't let him offend people so cluelessly.

You must know that although Chen Ju is very easy-going in the day, he is the master of ceremonies and supervisors who is known as the prime minister, and Yu Shenxing is too cold to him, which is not beautiful.

However, it is obvious that Wang An's worries are superfluous, Chen Ju not only did not feel unhappy because of Yu Shenxing's attitude, but his eyes quietly carried a hint of approval, and said.

"Our family Chen Ju, I've seen Yu Gong! Knowing that Yu Gong entered Beijing today, His Majesty was waiting in the Qianqing Palace early, but unfortunately, news suddenly came from the harem, saying that the second prince was accidentally infected with a cold, His Majesty was worried about the second prince, so he ordered our family to welcome Yu Gong and restore the will for Yu Gong. ”

After saying that, Chen Ju's face turned solemn, raised his hands high, and said.

"Under the holy decree, Yu Shen will take the order!"

"The old minister takes the order!"

In fact, the so-called repetition is probably the reply to the emperor after the courtiers took the errand, so in fact, Yu Shenxing's entry into the palace this time is not a real reinstatement, but a gratitude.

This is also the last procedure for the appointment of officials in the past, the rules of the dynasty, after accepting the appointment, officials above the seventh grade have to go to see the Son of Heaven, if it is a foreign official, it is called His Majesty, if it is an official in the capital, it is gratitude.

After thanking him, it is equivalent to the official officially taking office, but in fact, the process is very simple, Chen Ju announced Yu Shenxing's appointment intention again, and then Yu Shenxing kowtowed again and said loudly.

"Be cautious, thank Your Majesty for your grace!"

In this way, it can be regarded as completing the procedure of reinstatement, and Wang An on the side is finally relieved, although it is said that at this time things should not change again, but Yu Shenxing's attitude is too important, so the prince has always taken a breath and did not dare to let go.

Chen Ju stretched out his hand to help Shen Xing up, but a smile appeared on his face, and said.

"Your Majesty said, Yu Ge Lao has just entered Beijing, there is no need to rush into the cabinet to do things, you can rest for a few days, but presumably Yu Gong also knows that the capital is not calm now, and the government and the opposition are also quite concerned about Yu Ge Lao's entry into Beijing, and Yu Ge Lao should be more careful!"

How many days do you rest?

An inexplicable look flashed on Yu Shenxing's face, but the corner of his eye glanced at the Qianqing Palace on the side, and he did not speak.

And Chen Ju didn't care much and continued.

"But although His Majesty said so, but our family has to remind Yu Gong, in seven days, it will be the examination, His Majesty attaches great importance to this imperial examination, and must not make any mistakes, Yu Gong has now accepted his will, that is, a serious cabinet minister, it is not urgent to enter the cabinet, you can delay it for a few more days, but Yu Gong is the deputy chief examiner, and the second assistant Lord presided over the examination together, so you can think a little more about this matter!"

After a pause, Chen Ju's face became solemn and said.

"According to the rules, at least on the day before the scientific examination, all the same examiners must enter the same tribute academy, can Yu Gong understand?"

Yu Shenxing looked at Chen Ju's solemn face, pondered slightly for a moment, and arched his hand.

"Thank you father-in-law for reminding me, the old man understands!"

However, his appearance made Chen Ju smile and continue.

"It's good that Yu Gong is clear, but then again, the situation has been chaotic these days, quite unpeaceful, as soon as this Yuan Fu left, some people began to make a fuss, so that His Majesty was not worried about it, and now that Yu Gong has arrived, he can help His Majesty share more worries!"

Chen Ju babbled and said, seemingly complaining, but Yu Shenxing listened carefully, refusing to miss a word, and there was a bit of deep thought in his expression.

After a while, Chen Ju suddenly patted his head and said.

"Look at our family, the elderly people, there are a lot more words, this is a gift from His Majesty to Yu Gong, Yu Gong has been tired all the way, and our family will not delay Yu Gong's time, please ask the prince to escort Yu Gong back to the house!"

After saying that, Chen Ju waved his hand, and the person behind him took out a delicate box one foot square and sent it to Yu Shenxing.

"Thank you Grandpa Chen!"

Yu Shenxing obviously didn't expect that he had just entered Beijing, and the Son of Heaven gave him not a crown of gold and silver, but such a mysterious box, and he stretched out his hand to take it, but saw Chen Ju arch his hand, turned around and left.

And Wang An stayed, saying.

"It's not early, Your Majesty has already given the mansion to Yu Ge Lao in Beijing, and Ge Lao will come with our family!"

With that, he led the way and went out of the side hall.

"I'm tired of the princess!"

Yu Shenxing said politely, but he didn't follow immediately, but quietly looked at the Qianqing Palace outside the hall, and sighed in an undetectable voice.

"Today, it's really extraordinary......"

Lowering his head, Yu Shenxing's gaze seemed to penetrate the box in his hand, he smiled bitterly in his heart, raised his feet and followed Wang An out of the palace.

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Changluo sat on the throne, and in front of him, it was Chen Ju who had just gone to preach, saying that the second prince was sick, and it was natural for the emperor to visit him.

It should be said that the queen's teaching was not in vain, these days, Guo's actions in the harem are no less than Zhu Changluo's movements in the previous dynasty, in just a few months, the authority of the lord of the harem has been completely established, so that Zhu Changluo can hardly believe that the queen mother who is vigorous and resolute in the palace and handles things neatly is actually the Guo family who he has always thought is soft and weak.

It is said that women are weak, but mothers are strong, but it is really not unreasonable!

“…… Subsequently, the minister handed over the things ordered by His Majesty to Yu Ge Lao, and then returned to the palace to reply to the decree! ”

According to Zhu Changluo's request, Chen Ju explained all the details of his meeting with Yu Shenxing in great detail, and it almost took the same time as Yu Shenxing to finish.

After Chen Ju's description, Zhu Changluo raised his eyebrows and asked Chen Ju.

"The eunuch said that he was not enthusiastic about the eunuch, but he was very indifferent, but I once remembered that the eunuch said that he was at the gate of the city, and he was very enthusiastic about Wang Anke.

Although the words were not polite, Zhu Changluo asked casually, so Chen Ju was not too nervous, but smiled.

"Your Majesty laughed, but the minister felt that Yu Ge Lao's performance was beyond the reach of countless ministers in the court!"

"What do you mean by that?"

Zhu Changluo continued to ask, and Chen Ju arched his hand.

"Don't dare to deceive Your Majesty, when the emperor was the first emperor, the minister dealt with Yu Gong, at that time Yu Gong was upright, upright, and no one was pretty, such a character, although Yu Gong had a straight name in Shilin, but it was too rigid and easy to break, and because of this, Yu Gong made a lot of enemies, so that in the end, the bureau of the officer, today the minister saw Yu Gong, but saw Yu Gong like a sword into the sheath, not sharp, his two attitudes towards Wang An and the minister, just made the minister feel that Yu Gong has learned how to balance the situation of all parties and deal with all forces over the years!"

It should be said that Chen Ju is right, Zhu Changluo does not feel that there is anything wrong with Yu Shenxing's behavior, he is good at dancing with long sleeves, which is a necessary quality for a qualified politician.

Although Zhu Changluo has a deeper relationship with Wang An, he also knows that he is young after all, he has followed him for many years, and he has not suffered any setbacks, he acts freely, and he is arrogant, for Wang An, as long as he says a few more good words, he can gain his favor, but Chen Ju is different, Chen Ju has been in the court for many years, and he has long been immovable, not to mention that the difference between Chen Ju and Wang An is actually very big.

Although Wang An has studied in the inner study, but in the end, he has followed Zhu Changluo around for so many years, and his knowledge and literacy are not enough, but he is barely mixed with the background of the inner study, but Chen Ju is a high-achieving student who is serious about the study in the inner study, if he talks about knowledge, he may not be worse than those Hanlin bachelors outside, of course, he is also the same as the scholars outside, and is deeply influenced by the thoughts of scholars.

He believes in the friendship of gentlemen, which is as light as water, if Yu Shenxing is too enthusiastic with him, it will make Chen Ju look down on a lower level, not to mention, Chen Ju and Wang An's identities are also different, Chen Ju is the palm print of the master of ceremonies, and he has more dealings with the cabinet, but this identity is also more official, Yu Shenxing is now a cabinet minister, if he is busy with Chen Ju as soon as he enters Beijing, it will inevitably arouse suspicion, and there will be another crime of befriending the factory minister.

And Wang An is different, although he is also a eunuch, and Su Rili is serving by Zhu Changluo's side, there is not much contact with the cabinet, and he is a little warmer, and it will not be too eye-catching.

From this point of view, at least Yu Shenxing has a lot of skill in balancing the forces of all parties, perhaps as Chen Ju said, it is the time of the past ten years that has made him rein in his edge!

But......

"Sleek is sleek, but I'm afraid that these years of living in the house have also worn away his sharpness, if he only knows how to be exquisite, but he can't take on any big responsibility!"

Zhu Changluo shook his head, but there was a trace of worry on his face, and said.

"Why should Your Majesty worry, the so-called only by listening to his words and watching his deeds can he know his person, but now His Majesty only listens to his words and does not see his deeds, how can he judge his person?"

However, Chen Ju was full of confidence and opened his mouth to persuade.

"That's not bad, it's just the beginning now, I've heard it, and it's time to watch it next, but I don't know, I have this big question, what line should Yu Shenxing use to answer!"

Zhu Changluo laughed, but his eyes looked at the night outside the hall, there was still heavy snow outside the hall, this early winter snow, I don't know when it would stop, the candle flame on the imperial case reflected Zhu Changluo's eyes, more and more profound, elusive.

Yu Shenxing, I have set up such a big battle as a greeting gift, you ...... Don't let me down!
