Just when Fang Yingwu was thinking wildly, someone from Liu's Mansion came to spread the word, and Lao Taishan asked him to go over to discuss things. At this time, Fang Yingwu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly straightened his clothes and went out.

However, when I walked to the gate, I saw He Niangzi sending someone to pass the word, and also said that she asked Fang Yingwu to come over to discuss things. Obviously, this is what Wang Zhi meant.

However, Liu Mian and Wang Zhi almost sent people to invite them, which put Fang Yingwu in a difficult situation. Standing in the gate for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Go to Liu's Mansion!" ”

In Fang Yingwu's thoughts, the current old Taishan is in a state of mass killing, which is really scary, so it is better to take care of this one first. On Wang Zhi's side, it doesn't hurt to push back.

I didn't say anything all the way, and when I arrived at Liu's mansion, I was led into the study again. But seeing that Old Taishan frowned, he sat behind the bookcase and sighed.

Fang Yingwu didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and first sent countless high hats: "Old Taishan has a far-sighted view of the temple, strategizes between the cardinals, and is as careful as a step-by-step camp, and in one fell swoop to eliminate the treachery and evil in the court, my generation is overjoyed."

Liu Mian waved his hand to stop Fang Yingwu, "There is no need to say such useless words!" Call you today."

After a pause, Liu Mian re-spoke: "This expulsion of Uncle Liu and Yin Min is actually not the ideal time in the old man's heart, but Qingyunhou suddenly stirred up the situation, and the old man had to launch it.

Otherwise, when Qingyun Hou Zhen hooked up with Liu Shuwen, the old man's predicament would not be able to be solved, and he would have to strike first. The result was still a little hasty, and many aftermaths were not prepared, which is very regrettable. ”

Fang Yingwu pretended to be confused and said: "Old Taishan drove Liu Jue away." The fundamental purpose is to protect oneself. Now that Liu Jue, a scholar, is gone, there should be no similar thing in the near future. Otherwise, it would be too appalling to dismiss scholars in succession.

Therefore, Lao Taishan can be regarded as temporarily stabilizing his position, at least not for the time being. Then the previous purpose of self-insurance has been achieved. What else is there to regret? ”

Liu Mian said dissatisfiedly: "Don't hide your clumsy and pretend to be stupid, now that there is a vacant position for a scholar and a secretary of the ministry, but the old man is not ready, he may be taken advantage of by others, how can he not regret it?" ”

In the past, Fang Yingwu had to sarcastically say a few words like "Delong Wangshu", but today he endured it! Instead, he explained: "Things in the world are the most difficult and foolproof, and Lao Taishan doesn't need to worry about it!" ”

Liu Mian didn't take Fang Yingwu's forgiveness seriously, as if he was talking to himself: "There were four people in the previous cabinet. Three university scholars, as well as Peng Hua, who entered the cabinet but did not increase his bachelor's degree. Now that Liu Jue has gone, Peng Hua has the support of the first assistant Wan An, and it is unstoppable to take advantage of the trend and become an official and a scholar.

Therefore, it is useless to bother with the position of a scholar, but this official position of the official department is different, and there is no absolute priority candidate, so you can try to fight for it. If you can push yourself to be a heavenly official, then the pattern will be more stable. ”

When Fang Yingwu heard this, he knew that Lao Taishan wanted to copy the combination of Liu Jue and Yin Min who were bachelors and scholars? The question is. The officials of the Ministry of Heaven and Abroad are really attracting attention at home and abroad, how can it be so easy to grab them?

It is said that in the officialdom of the national dynasty, if the supervision of Shilang Temple is set as second-rate, the imperial history of the ministry and the academy is set as first-class. Then there are only two kinds of super-first-class official positions, namely the scholar of the palace and the scholar of the ministry, which shows the special status of the heavenly official of the ministry.

The other official positions are mainly generated through court promotion and election. There is no need for the Son of Heaven to appoint directly, but only scholars and scholars can be appointed and appointed directly by the Son of Heaven.

However, there is not much interest in this party. The reason is very simple, the era of the smoky Chenghua Dynasty is coming to an end. Two years later, the new monarch ascended the throne. At the time of the great reshuffle, what is the competition for today's short-lived official positions? Now on top, it will be over in less than two years, and the cost performance is too poor.

"As far as the old man knows, the Son of Heaven does not have a particularly favorite candidate for the current position of the officials, so he asked the hundred officials to push it, and then reported it to the palace." Liu Mian said.

As we all know, the court is the decision-making method of the Ming court, the court is mainly a deliberative decision-making, and the court is to promote important personnel issues. Since the Son of Heaven did not directly appoint the secretary of the ministry, he could only rely on the court push.

Liu Mian didn't finish the introduction until now, and the other party asked: "Look, can you promote Zhang Peng from the military department?" ”

The other ministries will be relocated to the official ministry, and the rank will remain the same, but they will be considered promoted. Liu Mian's fellow villager of Baoding Mansion and Zhang Peng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was also Fang Yingwu's contribution, but this time Fang Yingwu thought about it and said: "Difficult, difficult, difficult!" ”

The secretary is the head of the six departments, and the candidates are very particular about qualifications, and an old qualified squire has a greater chance than a general scholar with less qualifications. Zhang Peng is still not senior enough, he belongs to the junior in the book, and it is very difficult to become a secretary of the ministry.

Liu Mian sighed: "I have to give it a try, at least I can't let Wan'an control the officials anymore, otherwise my generation will die and there will be no place to bury!" ”

Fang Yingwu thought, if it is just to snipe Wan'an, it is easier to do, it is much simpler than pushing people to the top, and destroying is always easier than building.

However, Fang Yingwu said that he couldn't help, at present, he was just a small and false household department to give things to the middle of the matter, and he was preparing for the sixth rank of the East Palace, how could he let him intervene in the major event of the selection of the secretary of the Shangshu?

Liu Mian understood what Fang Yingwu was thinking, and said: "Tingtui is tomorrow, according to the usual practice, the cabinet ministers will not appear, and the old man must also avoid it, so he can only whip it out of reach." Why don't you go and participate and take the opportunity for the old man? ”

Fang Yingwu thought that Liu Mian was confused, and said in surprise: "The people who participated in the court push are ministers of various ministries, squires, and bachelors of Hanlin. How can I be among them, son-in-law? ”

Liu Mian said confidently: "You don't need to worry too much, the old man naturally has arrangements for you to participate, you just have to go to the Dongchao room outside the noon gate tomorrow." ”

"What arrangement?" Fang Yingwu couldn't help but ask. Liu Mian sold it: "You will know it right away." ”

Fang Yingwu was speechless, Liu Mian must have arranged everything before calling him over. It's not so much a matter of deliberation as of a command, but when it comes to this part, there is no room for refusal.

It's nothing more than a disturbance, he is too professional to do this work, so Fang Yingwu nodded very shamefully: "That's okay, my son-in-law will go to see it tomorrow, and I can take the opportunity to see Tingtui's cutscenes." ”

Liu Mian breathed a sigh of relief, if Fang Yingwu refused to go, then he would have a headache. Now he actually found that no one could reassure him more than Fang Yingwu, and in the end he only sighed: "I'm optimistic about you." (To be continued......)
