Seeing the scribe take the holy decree away, Jiao Fang, who was the first assistant to the cabinet, couldn't help but sigh lightly: "Your Majesty has not been able to leave the chief manager after all!" ”

Chen Ding, who had an upright temperament, frowned at this time and said: "Your Majesty is confused, it would be okay to allow Chief Manager Chu to resign, after all, this is Chu Yi's decision, and Your Majesty has nothing to do, but how can Your Majesty appoint Gu Dayong as the chief supervisor of ceremonies." ”

It can be seen that Chen Ding is very disapproving of Gu Dayong's successor as the chief supervisor of ceremonies.

What kind of person Gu Dayong is, others don't know, but these people in the cabinet can't be clearer.

In the more than a year that Chu Yi has been away, if you really want to talk about it, although it is said that there is an undercurrent above the court, under the suppression of Zhu Houzhao, it is still very calm on the whole.

But under this calm, there is an undercurrent surging, and Gu Dayong is one of the most restless existences.

Because Gu Dayong is really trusted by the Son of Heaven, even if Gu Dayong is a little out of line with some of his actions, everyone will turn a blind eye.

Fortunately, Gu Dayong's misfortune is not too much, and for everyone's sake, for the sake of the Son of Heaven, it is not aimed at Gu Dayong.

However, now Gu Dayong was suddenly appointed as the chief supervisor of ceremonies by the Son of Heaven, and this position is not something that ordinary people can sit in.

Let's take a look at who are sitting in this seat, the powerful emperor Liu Jin, and the martial king Chu Yi, no matter which one of them is, they are all above the ten thousand people under one person.

Now Zhengde has ushered in the third chief of ceremonies, Gu Dayong, but he doesn't know whether Gu Dayong died because of his own greed like Liu Jin, or whether he was like Chu Yi who had the world in mind and retired successfully.

Everyone glanced at each other, and they heard Wang Hua sigh softly: "Your Majesty's will has been given, I think everyone knows what kind of temperament our Majesty is." Since Your Majesty has chosen Gu Dayong, then until Gu Dayong's evil deeds are not revealed, no matter what we say, Your Majesty will not change your mind. ”

Wang Shouren chuckled and said: "It's nothing more than Gu Dayong becoming the head of the ceremonial supervisor, why should everyone be worried, he Gu Dayong just does things honestly, if not, even if he is the chief of the ceremonial supervisor, there are people in the world who can govern him." ”

Yang Yiqing stroked his beard and said with a smile: "What Yang Ming said is very true, don't forget, although the head of Chu said that he would resign, but he is still my Ming Wu King, the crown prince and the prince, if I do too much, we only need to invite the head of Chu." ”

Thinking of this, Jiao Fang and the elders were secretly relieved, and they were no longer worried about whether Gu Dayong would make any trouble when he became the chief supervisor of ceremonies.

When the decree of the Son of Heaven came out, the cabinet was sent to the eunuch and the officials of the Ministry of Rites as quickly as possible, and they went to the mansions of Chu Yi and Gu Dayong with the holy decree respectively.

Not only does Chu Yi have a mansion outside the palace, but an inner servant like Gu Dayong, but the Son of Heaven also rewards him with a mansion outside the palace.

In Chu Yi's Nawu Palace, the eunuchs and officials of the Ministry of Rites passed the decree and left in a hurry, after all, Chu Yi was too famous, but these chamberlains and officials of the Ministry of Rites did not dare to stay in Chu Yi's mansion for too long.

But Gu Dayong's mansion was full of jubilation.

As Gu Dayong's henchman, Miao Miao looked at Gu Dayong's autobiographical decree and took the holy decree in the hands of the eunuch, and said to Gu Dayong with a smile: "Congratulations to the chief manager, congratulations to the chief manager, now the name of the chief manager is well deserved!" ”

Don't look at everyone who calls Gu Dayong the chief manager on weekdays, but Gu Dayong knows in his heart that as long as he doesn't sit in the position of the chief supervisor for a day, then he can't be called the chief manager.

Although it is said that the holy decree was written by Zhu Houzhao in front of Gu Dayong, Gu Dayong has already seen it, but when he saw it at that time and now, his feelings are very different.

Gu Dayong looked at the holy decree and couldn't help laughing.

With the decree issued, the capital itself was the place where the news spread the fastest, and in less than half a day, Chu Yi's resignation was approved by the Son of Heaven, and the news of Gu Dayong's promotion to the head of the ceremonial supervisor spread throughout the capital for the first time.

Then came another rumor, that is, Chu Yi fell out of favor with the Son of Heaven.

On that day in the court, so many people watched Chu Yi open his mouth to beg the Son of Heaven to allow him to resign, although there were also rumors among the Jingshi, but everyone would rather believe the rumors than the facts.

There is a lot of rumors everywhere in the teahouse and wine shop.

"Have you heard, the former chief manager Chu Yi has fallen out of favor with the Son of Heaven......"

"Some people have long said that Chu Yi is too sharp, but now he has been abandoned by the Son of Heaven."

"Hahaha, this eunuch also has today!"

Some people think that Chu Yi has fallen out of favor, and naturally some people don't believe it, but in the face of that rumor, everyone has been staring at the Wuwang Mansion, but the Wuwang Mansion has not moved at all, and over time, almost half of the people believe that Chu Yi has fallen out of favor.

Time passed like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, it was a few months, Chu Yi was just like what he said, since he resigned from the government after getting the will of the Son of Heaven, he no longer interfered in the affairs of the court, except for regularly going to the palace to teach the little prince, the rest of the time he did not come out of the Wuwang Mansion, and even some officials were turned away when they came to the door to ask for a meeting.

Compared with Chu Yi's Nawu Palace, there were scattered people in front of the palace, but Gu Dayong's mansion, who was promoted to the head of the ceremonial supervisor, was crowded with traffic in front of the gate, and the sedan chair of the officials who went to meet Gu Dayong was almost lined up like a long line.

Even because there were too many officials who visited Gu Dayong, it directly led to officials under the fourth grade who wanted to meet Gu Dayong, and they had to hand over the worship post several days in advance.

Gu Dayong's momentum is unmatched for a while, stepping on the low and praising the high has always been the nature of people, Gu Dayong is powerful, and naturally there are a group of officials who cling to Gu Dayong.

For these wall grasses, Gu Dayong can be said to be not refused, after all, if Gu Dayong wants to establish his own power above the court, he must gather some people around him.

Gu Dayong took office with a new official, and the first unlucky ones were some officials who were attached to Chu Yi in the past, this part of the officials was not as high and powerful as Wang Shouren, Yang Yiqing, and Han Kun, even if they were Gu Dayong, they didn't dare to move lightly, but other officials were different, Gu Dayong could take down these officials with a random reason.

It's just a few months of work, and no less than a dozen officials with low official positions, but who are in important departments, have been replaced by Gu Dayong's own people.

For example, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household were all installed by Gu Dayong.

In the mansion, an official entered the study under the guidance of the servant, and saw Gu Dayong sitting there with a red face, Lu Sen, who was the new household attendant, bowed to Gu Dayong and said, "Child Lu Sen, meet my father-in-law!" ”

Gu Dayong smiled and stretched out his hand and said: "Sen'er is okay in the household department, has the old thing Chen Ding embarrassed you!" ”

In a short period of time, Gu Dayong was stunned to accept eighteen righteous sons, and gathered a group of officials with these eighteen righteous sons as the backbone for their use.

And Lu Sen is one of the eighteen righteous sons that Gu Dayong has collected, and he was placed in the household department by Gu Dayong, needless to say that Gu Dayong is targeting the household department. After all, Gu Dayong is not a fool, he knows that he has money and food in his hands, and he is not panicked.

Lu Sen said with a wry smile on his face: "Back to the father-in-law, Chen Dingshangshu is too stubborn, because of the father-in-law, he targets the child everywhere, but fortunately, he doesn't dare to offend the father-in-law too much, so the child is not bad in the household department." ”

At the mention of Chen Ding, Gu Dayong couldn't help frowning and said with a little displeasure: "This old thing has been a veteran of several dynasties, even in the face of His Majesty, he dares to show his face directly to His Majesty, otherwise, our family will definitely take him." ”

Saying that, Gu Dayong looked at Lu Sen and said, "Sen'er, can you intercept the money for repairing the river embankment that your father-in-law asked you to intercept?" ”

Lu Sen said in a low voice: "Back to the father-in-law, the child has already intercepted 500,000 taels of silver according to the instructions of the father-in-law, but in this way, there are less than 200,000 taels left for repairing the river, and the river is ......."

Gu Da waved his hand and said with a little carelessness: "In the past two years, the imperial court has smashed tens of millions of taels of silver to repair the river, and this river has been simply repaired earlier, so even if the funds are insufficient this time, a little repair is enough, I really think there will be any floods!" ”

Lu Sen nodded approvingly and said, "What the righteous father said is very true, the child will arrange for someone to send the silver into the righteous father's mansion tomorrow." ”

Gu Dayong suddenly smiled at Lu Sen and said, "Very good, our family really didn't misunderstand you!" ”

Lu Sen said modestly: "But it is not as good as Brother Wenzheng, this time the imperial court allocated millions of taels of silver to settle the hundreds of thousands of people who moved to Jianzhou Sanwei, Brother Wenzheng only needs to move a little pen and ink, and then it will be tens of millions of taels of silver." ”

Gu Dayong looked at Lu Sen and said, "Sen'er, you said that if Your Majesty and the people of the world know what we are doing, will you think that we are the ones who have brought disaster to the country and the people?" ”

Lu Sen said with a straight expression: "Is it wrong for us to share the worries of the Son of Heaven and seek some benefits for ourselves at the same time, as the so-called emperor does not send hungry soldiers, and we have not harmed the local people, what is wrong, and how can we say that we will bring disaster to the country and the people?" The father-in-law devoted himself to the people of the world, and presided over more than a dozen major projects such as river repair, road repair, and resettlement of disaster victims in a few months. If you really want to say that your father-in-law has brought disaster to the country and the people, are they worthy of their conscience......

Lu Sen's righteous father's righteous words, when it came to the excitement, Lu Sen's face even turned red, and if anyone disagreed, he would roll up his sleeves and reason with the other party.

Gu Da smiled with his eyebrows, with a satisfied look on his face, and said to Lu Sen: "Sen'er's words are deep in my heart, deep in my heart!" ”
