"You know what?"

Li Ge glanced at her, "The person who made this statement clearly intended to take it. right, see that his father is the head of the cabinet. And that Zhou Cifu, what is he, and dare to mention the position of taking over the old man? ”

Li Ziyue was so frightened that she took a step back and didn't dare to say more.

Elder Li Ge looked at Ji Yushen, "Even if you reach a certain age and have to step down, the person who takes over the position of the first assistant to the cabinet must also be from our own family." ”

From the moment he allowed Li Ziyue and Ji Yushen to marry, he was preparing for this thing.

Ji Yushen raised his head slightly, looked at Li Ge Lao, and showed a faint smile.

After Jiang Guiren was grounded, it didn't take long for another big news to come from the harem.

It is said that Ji Yushen was hit by Jiang Guiren, and he did not recover for more than half a month, during which the imperial doctors took turns to go to the Li Mansion to check, and they all said that the disease was indescribable and very tricky.

Ji Yushen has not returned for a long time, the people of the Li Party have impetuousness, and the emperor is very annoyed that he has one less right-hand man.

Jiang Su secretly rejoiced, fortunately, Su Youyi had put forward an opinion early and grounded Jiang Guiren, otherwise looking at the emperor's appearance, he would still want to deal with Jiang Guiren well.

He himself went to visit the Li Mansion in person, he was not a person who studied medicine, and he couldn't see any problems, but he saw that Ji Yushen was indeed weak, so he comforted him for a long time before leaving.

Li Ge Lao appealed to the emperor in the early dynasty, and when he was an old man, he said something lonely and helpless with such a son-in-law, and even Su Qing and other people who did not admire him couldn't help but be moved.

“…… Lao Chen only has such a daughter, and only such a son-in-law, if he has a case, Lao Chen will not be able to live. Ask the emperor for mercy, ask for the emperor's mercy! ”

As he spoke, he was about to kneel, but the Minister of the Li Party had already quickly supported him.

The emperor was forced to be helpless, how could he be pitied?

All kinds of nourishing ginseng and snow lotus in the palace were sent to the Li Mansion, but they didn't have any miracles, so in desperation, he was promoted to Ji Yushen's official position to comfort, making him the first second-grade member to enter the cabinet at a young age!

This news is not explosive in the court, but Li Ge Lao burst into tears, which is almost equivalent to blackmailing the emperor, and you only hate Li Ge Lao for covering the sky with one hand, and did not expect it at all......

"Brother Huang's trick is really clever."

Prince Yong sat in the Qianqing Palace, tasted the dim sum sent by Su Youyi, and said while eating: "Ji Yushen's little problem, Li Ge Lao wants to take the opportunity to make trouble and let the imperial doctors say that it is a serious illness." The younger brother originally thought that he wanted to blackmail the Marquis of Weiyuan, but he didn't expect him to fight this idea. He thought that his treacherous plan had succeeded, but he didn't know that it was the emperor's brother's mind to let Ji Yushen enter the cabinet justifiably. ”

The emperor glanced at Prince Yong, picked up the teacup and said lightly: "That's because you don't know, I have already ordered someone to let go in front of Li Ge Lao intentionally or unintentionally, mentioning that he is about to return to his hometown, and Zhou Cifu of the cabinet is very likely to take his place." ”

Prince Yong put down his snack in surprise, "And this matter?" The royal brother really had a foresight. ”

He thought about the relationship between several cabinet elders, and couldn't help but laugh, "Brother Huang's trick is really too ruthless, who do you say is bad, but you want to talk about Zhou Cifu?" ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows and drank the cup of tea slowly, "He is the first assistant, and after the abdication, the second assistant should take over the position, what's wrong?" ”

Prince Yong shook his head with a smile, "But Zhou Cifu and Li Ge Lao have never dealt with each other. Both of them are veterans of the Three Dynasties, and I heard that when Li Ge Lao entered the cabinet, Zhou Cifu was already a second assistant. Because his personality is too upright and withdrawn, the first emperor has always put him in the position of second assistant. said that his temperament just persuaded Shoufu to avoid the monopoly of Shoufu, and let him be Shoufu, but the water is clear and there is no fish. ”

"So I have always obeyed the words of the first emperor, and I have never moved to put Zhou Cifu in the position of secondary assistant."

Prince Yong almost burst out of tea with laughter, "But because of the words of the first emperor, the imperial brother let Zhou Cifu be the second assistant for decades, and he is eighty years old this year!" ”

The more Prince Yong talked, the more he wanted to laugh.

The emperor used the name of "the last emperor's will" to keep Zhou Cifu, and no one in the court dared to refute it, and Li Gelao and Zhou Cifu did not deal with it and did not dare to make trouble.

It's just that Zhou Cifu was also a rigid character, he refused to go home at an old age to live and recuperate, and put on a look that as long as the court used him, he was willing to bow down and die.

The emperor glanced at him, "How can it be so exaggerated?" It's just seventy-eight years old. ”

Prince Yong: "......"

The emperor said: "In addition to Zhou Cifu having the last order of the first emperor, you can continue to be this second assistant in the court when you are old, according to the ancestral system of this dynasty, you must return to your hometown when you are sixty years old." Therefore, I must use Zhou Cifu, who enjoys this privilege, to stimulate Li Ge Lao in order to achieve the effect. ”

Prince Yong nodded, and his face became serious, "Although the imperial brother successfully brought Ji Yushen into the cabinet, it has never been easy to make him the first assistant in just a few years. ”

The corners of the emperor's mouth were slightly upturned, and he was confident, "You have to believe in me, and you have to believe in Ji Yushen." The most terrifying thing about people is to have firm and strong beliefs, and Ji Yushen is such a person. ”

Belief?

With Prince Yong's deep understanding of the emperor and Ji Yu, he can be sure that this so-called belief is by no means loyal to the monarch and loving the people, is it an obsession with fame and fortune?

This kind of persistence cannot be described as "firm and strong".

So what is it exactly?

The emperor didn't mean to tell Prince Yong, Prince Yong thought about it, and picked up the snack again to eat.

Since the emperor didn't say it, he didn't ask.

……

When the news first reached the harem, many people were laughing at Jiang Guiren, she knocked down Ji Yushen and added a title to Ji Yushen, which was really a blessing in disguise.

It's a pity that the ridiculed Jiang Guiren himself is grounded, and he doesn't know what's going on outside.

There are also people to congratulate Li Changzai, since the Li family is gone, how many people in the harem think that the Li family is gradually declining, and now seeing that Li Ge Lao not only did not fall, but his son-in-law also entered the cabinet, he couldn't help but be a little worried and speculated, and was busy currying favor with Li Changzai.

This is especially evident in the Queen.

The queen knew from the beginning that the emperor wanted to suppress the Li family's heart, and she knew that the emperor was not used to Li Gelao's power, but she didn't know why things had developed to this point.

The emperor wanted to suppress Li Gelao, why did he use Ji Yushen so much to let him enter the cabinet?

Give the queen another brain, and she can't think of it with mediocre political thinking, Ji Yushen is actually the emperor's person.

The queen wanted Xu Changzai to curry favor with Li Changzai for her, "You live in Xianfu Palace together, and you go to get closer and closer." Lord Ji's new entry into the cabinet is the hot time, don't you see Concubine Hui often going to Li Chang there these days? ”
