With the clap of King Ming and Gao Ruzhen, the vigorous internal assessment activities of officials began in this way.

This news was born out of nowhere, and everyone was caught off guard.

Because they were not informed in advance, many officials felt a chill down their spines almost as soon as they learned the news, and then they were frightened and took the initiative to resign!

And after this, there were a lot of resignations.

This kind of people mostly don't have a few taels of ink in their stomachs, but they buy officials by relying on relationships, enjoy official salaries, and eat elephants with dead pigs' noses and onions.

But when they took the initiative to resign, Gao Ruzhen didn't pursue it too much, but just deducted the two-year fine, and waved them to get out.

As for those who do not resign, they will have to accept the hellish assessment of King Ming and Gao Ruzhen.

One is the prime minister of the elders of the Three Dynasties, and the other is the principal of Aoyama Academy, who has trained countless students.

Moreover, there are many good seedlings in Qingshan Academy, and those who brush down to the middle of the court can immediately select the right person and make up for it.

So Gao Ruzhen is not worried.

Anyway, the emperor hasn't decided yet, so it's better to clear the field first!

As a result, this set of assessment processes came down, and many officials beat their chests and feet, and they almost cried and called their mothers.

O iniquity!

It's just a high Ruzhen, and another Ming King!

I can't mix it up these days!

As a result, as soon as it was cleaned up, it was found that there were many officials who lacked ability but had not been able to hold a large number of official positions, and at the same time, there were also conscientious officers who were diligent but had been excluded.

The two ruthless veteran cadres discussed all the way, demoting those who should be demoted, deposing those who should be dismissed, and greatly promoted a number of outstanding officials.

This hand made everyone applaud.

Even the common people were very happy, and boasted that His Royal Highness was a blue sky prince.

In this regard, Xiao Tingyi also teased: Why don't you go to Jingzhao Mansion and be a parent official for the people.

And King Ming just smiled and shook his head.

He doesn't want to be the emperor, let alone Jingzhao Mansion Yin?

However, by the way, it is worth mentioning that in this assessment, Yin Hefang of Jingzhao Mansion performed very well.

Whether it is the exam questions issued by King Ming or the test set by King Ming, He Fang's performance is very satisfactory.

In addition, He Fang had also been 'merciful' to Ye Qingli before, and Xiao Tingyi also took this favor, and he spared no effort to praise him.

No one is stupid and will certainly not throw a stone at a person who has shown kindness to himself.

So, He Convenience waited for his own reciprocation.

The final result was that after careful discussion, Gao Ruzhen and King Ming unanimously decided that the prime minister's side would temporarily cancel the position of Cheng Zhu, which was ostensibly the same as the secretary, but actually cultivated a successor, but set up the left and right ministers, which were held by Zhen Dian and He Fang respectively.

Zhen Dian is solemn and fair, He Fang is delicate and sleek, the combination of these two people is simply complementary to each other.

They are indispensable for the future of Daqian.

Among the six departments, only Jiang Lunda is neither high nor low, and his original position has not moved, as for the rest of his old colleagues and subordinates, they have been asked to leave their original positions.

The funniest thing is Liu Hong, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, who repeatedly withheld materials in the construction of fortifications and water conservancy, and filled his own pockets with the appropriations of the imperial court, not only failed to withstand the hellish assessment, but was also reported by an anonymous letter!

Because more than half of the bridge projects he supervised had problems, and there were even accidents in heavy rains, causing a lot of casualties.

Liu Hong concealed these things and did not report them.

But when the world is unfair, someone will see it in the eyes after all, so they took this opportunity to shake him off.

When the king of Ming found out, he was furious, first removed his officials, and then punished him to repair bridges and pave roads, until Daqian had no more places and was blocked because there was no bridge, so he was allowed to return to Beijing to squat in prison.

Because, after all, he still has to pay the heaviest price for those innocent lives.

The people were again praising and rejoicing.

And the adjustment of this hemorrhage also took half a month.

Until everything settled again, the court and officials were once again on the right track with the new arrangement.

At this time, His Royal Highness King Ding, who was already eighty years old, accompanied by his youngest son Xiao Mingqi, came to the capital tremblingly.

Xiao Tingyi and Ye Qingli greeted them at the city gate as usual, but this time, there were more Ming Wang and Xiao Jingxin.

Then, a large carriage returned to the Xianwang Mansion again.

And this time, Gao Ruzhen was not in a hurry to visit, and now, he has handed over all the things in hand to Zhen Dian and He Fang to deal with, and he has become the shopkeeper and acted as a 'consultant' in the court.

"I really didn't expect that I would be able to return to the capital one day!"

King Ding has been weathered in the frontier, and the whole person has a chilling aura of slaughter.

Even if he is old and does not wear armor, the cold light from the tiger's eyes can still make people feel a deterrent.

And think that back then, the reason why he invited himself to go to the frontier and never came back was because Xiao Tingli had some scruples about him, in order to protect his wife and children, he could only leave his homeland with his family and take root in the frontier.

"Brother Emperor, you are still very healthy, I am really very happy."

When Xiao Tingyi had a memory, King Ding had already hugged his grandson, so he treated Xiao Tingyi like his own child.

Back then, everyone liked this youngest brother very much.

"Haha, Xiaoyi, you're so old in a blink of an eye!"

His Royal Highness King Ding was bold, smiling and smiling, and there were faint tears in his eyes, "When I heard the news of your marriage before, I still thought-alas! Do not say! ”

After that, he wiped his eyes, looked at Ye Qingli again and said, "Brother and sister, if Xiaoyi bullies you, just tell me, don't look at my old bones, but it's more than enough to beat him!" ”

Ye Qingli immediately nodded, "Thank you, Brother Emperor!" ”

King Ding was very happy, looking at Xiao Tingyi's expression, and a little childish pride, which made Xiao Tingyi cry and laugh.

The eighty-year-old eldest brother beat him, did he dare to fight back?

At this time, King Ding also sighed in his heart, in the past, the relationship between them was so good, but it was because of this power struggle that the brothers were suspicious.

They originally had nine brothers, but now, only him, the seventh, the eighth, and the ninth are left.

"It's all gone."

Xiao Tingyi poured him a glass of wine, and said, "Brother Emperor, you have worked hard for Daqian until now, and you have also suffered in the frontier, and the future affairs will be handed over to the children, and you should rest." ”

"yes."

Speaking of his children, King Ding was very proud, "Although the environment in the frontier is poor, it is not without any benefits, your three nephews, each of them are good generals, and I have already let go and handed over the matter to them." ”

"Then why don't the imperial brothers go back to the capital to recuperate?"

Xiao Tingyi drank wine, but he didn't expect that Xiao Mingqi didn't know why, the chopsticks in his hand 'clicked' and fell to the ground.

King Ding glared at him, and Xiao Mingqi's expression was a little cramped and uneasy, "Father, I was too careless." ”

And the maid had already sent the clean chopsticks up, and picked them up on the ground and took them away, Ye Qingli smiled, "The prince really just wants the eldest brother to have a comfortable old age, you don't have to worry." ”

Xiao Mingqi's face suddenly became even more embarrassed.

He didn't expect that Ye Qingli would directly understand what he was thinking.

Xiao Jingxin ate the dishes elegantly, and asked, "Grandma Jiu, why should we worry?" ”

Ye Qingli raised her eyebrows, "Ask your brother Mingqi?" ”

Xiao Mingqi suddenly became a little embarrassed.

He was naturally embarrassed to say what he was worried about in front of Xiao Tingyi and them.

King Ming immediately laughed and said, "Ninth brother and sister, don't tease Ming Qi, although he is older than you, you are an elder in the end." ”

"I was wrong."

Ye Qingli could hear that King Ming was reminding himself not to make King Ding unhappy because of this.

Although King Ding is hearty and arrogant, but her temper is not good, if she continues to speak, King Ding will definitely inspire Xiao Ming's temper, maybe he will kick it on the spot, it is also possible.

After all, he is old, and the children can only endure the beatings.

King Ding said in a majestic voice again, "Ming Qi, you are also thinking too much. ”

"Yes, father."

Xiao Mingqi lowered his head and looked very respectful, and then he heard King Ding laugh again, "Xiao Jiu, this kid, even if you want to keep me, you have to fight my Iron Tiger Army first!" ”

Xiao Tingyi couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly begged for mercy, "Brother Huanghuang should spare me, I can't fight." ”

"Hahahaha!"

King Ding smiled happily, and then raised his wine glass again, "Drink!" ”

Xiao Mingqi persuaded again, "Father, the military doctor said that your body can't drink-"

"Don't spoil the fun!"

King Ding's face really changed, and he immediately sank, "It's hard to get together, and I don't even want to drink alcohol, how did Lao Tzu give birth to such a mother-in-law son as you!" ”

However, it was because Xiao Mingqi loved to talk about it that he was arranged by his eldest brother to accompany him into Beijing.

Otherwise, it may be that the king himself will drink wine, and he will be even more unrestrained.

Xiao Mingqi was a little helpless, but he didn't dare to resist, so he could only repeat in a low voice, "Father, you can't drink more, you can only drink two cups at most!" ”

The voice was firm.

King Ming also said, "Big brother, you drink less, and Xiao Yi and I will drink the rest of the wine for you!" ”

"Humph!"

King Ding was completely unhappy and kicked Xiao Mingqi.

"Dad, why are you beating me again......"

Xiao Mingqi's tone was a little aggrieved this time.

King Ming and Xiao Tingyi laughed, and Ye Qingli also played a round game, "It's better like this, let's not drink, drink tea." ”

But King Ding still didn't comply, and raised his wine glass, "Then how can it be done!" Adult men are uncomfortable when they don't drink for a day! ”

Xiao Mingqi still doesn't give up, "Father ......"

"Shut up!"

King Ding kicked again, and directly kicked Xiao Mingqi's stool away.

If it weren't for Xiao Mingqi being trained since he was a child, he would have been very experienced in squatting and walking, but now he would sit directly on the ground.

"Poof......

Xiao Jingxin just wanted to laugh, but Ye Qingli covered her mouth, but Xiao Mingqi still had the strength to persuade weakly, "Father, you must pay attention to your body!" ”

King Ding clutched his wine glass, and the five thunders of anger thundered to the top, "It's already made you angry!" Also note! Watch out for a ball! ”
