The news that Tang Yin was appointed as the ambassador of the household department was officially issued by the ministry in the afternoon of the same day, and Tang Yin finally completed the most important change in his life.

Became an official.

Everyone didn't know whether to congratulate him, at least Tang Yin's expression was very weird, even Jiang Lun, who has always been tongue-inducing, knew that Tang Yin was not a "high promotion" when he was the ambassador of Guangjiku, and he didn't even dare to say words of congratulations.

"Mr. Tang, in the future, we will be ministers of the same palace, we must cooperate sincerely and serve Your Majesty!"

Only Zhu Hao said something similar to congratulations.

Tang Yin nodded.

There was originally a banquet in the evening, but because Tang Yin suddenly became an official, he was afraid that he would misunderstand that everyone was entertaining him, so the banquet was directly canceled and the dinner was again on another day.

In this way, only Zhu Hao and Tang Yin got together for dinner.

Tang Yin poured himself a drink, drank a lot, shook his head and sighed: "If you really want to be such an unpopular official, I went there in the early years, why wait until today?" ”

Zhu Hao picked up the wine jug and poured a glass for Tang Yin: "Mr. didn't see that everyone didn't congratulate you today?" Because everyone knows that this is not a good thing for you, everyone hopes that you can be as unrestrained as before, when you are a romantic and talented Tang Bohu. ”

"Huh."

Tang Yin smiled bitterly, "Then you still want me to enter the court?" Now you got your wish, right? ”

Zhu Hao said: "Mr. entering the court as an official is the first step for you to be an auxiliary government in the future, do you want to have no fame and fortune for the rest of your life?" If you want to do things in the future, you will not be right. As long as you make some achievements in this inventory of river works, Your Majesty will have a reason to promote you...... The speed of your career promotion will be the envy of most people in the DPRK. ”

Zhu Hao is tantamount to saying to Tang Yin, I helped you on your career, not deliberately changing your principles of life, but really for your good.

With this first step, there will be a series of follow-up steps.

Tang Yin sighed: "I finally understand, these accounts can be read quickly, and even dealt with in a timely manner, but you have to wait until today, it seems that you are paving the way for me." Zhu Hao, I don't know whether to thank you or hate you, it's all in the wine......"

Tang Yin complained that Zhu Hao had changed his principles of action and entered the officialdom as a small official, but on the other hand, he knew that Zhu Hao was helping himself.

As Zhu Hao said, now he can get the emperor's approval by doing something, as long as he can break through the rules set by civil officials, even if the new emperor makes him a scholar, it is possible.

The difficulty lies in how to break through the shackles in an officialdom that pays attention to seniority.

Even to be an ambassador of the Guangji Library, he needs Zhu Hao's advice and Yang Tinghe to get it, Tang Yin really can't think of how he can climb to a high position as a person.

……

……

Zhu Si still came that night.

Zhu Si didn't shy away from it, and congratulated him when he came up, which made Tang Yin feel uncomfortable.

Zhang Zuo reminded: "Your Majesty, with Mr. Tang's great talent, this mere nine-grade junior official is simply a humiliation to him, how can you congratulate him?" ”

Zhu Sidao: "Zhu Hao said that this is only the first step, and it is also a step that must be taken. Mr. Tang relax, Zhu Hao will definitely design for you how to make meritorious contributions, so that those ministers have nothing to say. ”

Tang Yin hurriedly saluted: "The minister has no desire to compete for fame and profit. ”

Zhu Si waved his hand: "It's not for you to compete for fame and fortune, but for you to assist Zuo Zhen, you are not an official, I want to use you, others will say that I have broken the rules, just like I use Zhu Hao." ”

Tang Yin nodded, no longer saying anything.

Zhu Si looked at Zhu Hao with a smile: "You don't know how ugly Mr. Tang's face was when I mentioned to Mr. Yang Ge today that he was an official, and now I am relieved to think about it." ”

Zhu Hao said: "There is no need to fight for anger, but to win the official position for Mr. Tang earlier, so that he can officially move from behind the scenes to the foreground." ”

Zhu Si snorted lightly: "Let them inquire about my Xingwang Mansion if they are fine, and then push Mr. Tang out for them to take a good look, except for Zhu Hao in the future, there will be no secrets in Xingwangfu, see how he troubles me." ”

Yang Tinghe was puzzled, that is, how did Zhu Si know that he knew Tang Yin's identity.

In fact, Tang Yin's "exposure" was deliberately designed by Zhu Hao, Zhu Hao found that Yang Shen's people were inquiring about the situation in Xingwang's mansion, and immediately pushed the boat down the river to arrange for someone to leak Tang Yin's news, Yang Shen thought that it was the intelligence he had investigated with his own ability, but he didn't know that Zhu Hao's move was to "abandon the car and protect the handsome", and let Tang Yin come out as a cover, so that Yang Tinghe and his henchmen would not suspect whether there were staff members behind Zhu Si.

This can be regarded as a way to protect Zhu Hao's own.

And Tang Yin's journey from behind the scenes to the front desk is also part of Zhu Hao's plan, so he can't let Tang Yin be a shadow staff for the rest of his life, right?

Even Sun Ru and Gongsun Yi have to be mixed with official vacancies, and Tang Yin, a person who is deeply valued by Zhu Youqi and can be ranked with Yuan Zonggao in the palace, has never had a chance with his career, which is very unfair to Tang Yin.

Even if Tang Yin does not have the fame of Jinshi, he can also make Tang Yin gain a firm foothold in the court by passing on the official and making meritorious contributions.

Of course, this requires Zhu Hao's help.

……

……

Just when Zhu Siwei finally became an official for Tang Yin and felt that he would have a powerful helper in the future, Yang Shen was screening the leakers around him.

Yang Shen set up a banquet and invited a few people who had informed the news yesterday, and knocked on the side, but no one was willing to admit that the news was leaked.

The feast ends.

Yu Chengxun called his brother-in-law to the back hall, shook his head and sighed: "Who is willing to admit it?" Do you have any doubters? ”

Yang Shen said: "Why are you looking for so many people today?" In fact, I just told you about this news, and there are only two Dafu. ”

"Huh?"

Yu Chengxun was really taken aback, and then hurriedly said, "I didn't leak half a sentence to the outside world, even if it was Neizi, I didn't mention it." ”

Yang Shen shook his head: "I naturally believe you, it's just Dafu's side......"

Yu Chengxun said: "Do you suspect Yang Dafu? ”

Yang Shen said: "Previously, my father asked me to launch a joint performance of the Hanyuan Xinke Jinshi to persuade His Majesty to give up the matter of taking Princess Xing to Beijing, and I only told you and him, but this news soon became known to His Majesty...... Was it too coincidental? ”

Now the two people Yang Shen trusts the most, in addition to Yu Chengxun, are his friend Yang Weicong.

At this time, Yang Weicong didn't know that he hadn't done anything, but he was listed as a key suspect by Yang Shen.

didn't treat it as an internal ghost, but was treated as an internal ghost.

Yu Chengxun seemed very incomprehensible: "Dafu has never had anything to do with Xingwangfu, and with his character, he will definitely not contact the people of Xingwangfu, how can he ......?"

Yang Shen shook his head and said, "I don't know my heart!" ”

Then he glanced at Yu Chengxun with a meaningful gaze, as if to say, you excuse him, I think he is impossible, do you want me to doubt you?

Yu Chengxun wanted to say that it would be that there were people on the new emperor's side who were like gods, but seeing Yang Shen's attitude, it was not good to mention it again.

said too much, as if he was defending Yang Weicong, even if he and the Yang family were in-laws, but Yang Shen's sentence "knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing hearts" was also a warning to him, indicating that the Yang family was not very at ease with themselves.

"Go back and try again, tell him something that is not true, and see if Your Majesty will know, and you will know."

Yang Shen would not rashly conclude that Yang Weicong was a traitor.

The tentative method he designed was to inform Yang Weicong of something that the new emperor's camp would not think about and would not predict in advance, and even Yu Chengxun didn't say it, no third party knew, and then looked at the reaction of the new emperor's side, he knew whether Yang Weicong was really an undercover agent inserted by the new emperor into his camp.

……

……

Night.

Zhu Si returned to the palace early.

On the same day, Zhu Hao had a long talk with Tang Yin, and Zhu Hao informed Tang Yin of the conversation with Yu Chengxun and Yang Shen in the morning.

Tang Yin said: "I said you, you can really pinch and calculate, the time point is so good, here Yang Shen is testing my matter to you, and on the other hand, His Majesty mentioned to Yang Ge Lao that he wanted to give me an official, you calculated the time and deliberately made them think that someone inside leaked the news, right?" ”

Zhu Hao shook his head: "I didn't deliberately get stuck in time, but Yang Yongxiu asked someone about you yesterday, and I knew that he should have told his father about your situation last night." ”

"How do you know?" Tang Yin asked.

Zhu Hao shrugged: "It was the owner of Su who told me...... Su Dongzhu has a wide range of contacts in the court, and I asked him to help keep an eye on the two sons of the Yang family to see who they usually come into contact with. ”

Tang Yin was speechless: "Why don't you stare at Yang Ge Lao, why are you staring at his two sons?" ”

The two sons of the Yang family mentioned by Zhu Hao, one is Yang Shen and the other is Yang Dan.

Zhu Hao said: "As a Zai Fu, Yang Ge has no heart to investigate those trivial things many times, and he can't fully trust outsiders, so he will naturally find two sons to do things, and then talk about it...... Do you think that Elder Yang Ge will personally go to check on you and introduce the guests of the palace? ”

Tang Yin thought about it and immediately felt that Zhu Hao was thoughtful.

Indeed, Yang Tinghe wants to investigate the affairs of the Xing Palace, it is obviously inappropriate to find a senior member of the court, let people know that he is in the Chaxing Palace, as a courtier, no matter how powerful you are and how high your prestige is, it is also a kind of arrogance.

In order to avoid being gossiped about, of course, it is most appropriate to let the two sons check it.

This was calculated and targeted by Zhu Hao.

Tang Yin said: "Then who do you think Elder Yang Ge will suspect?" ”

Zhu Hao smiled: "It's not who Yang Ge Lao suspects, but who Yang Yongxiu suspects...... As far as I know, at the moment, Yang Yongxiu is his right-hand man, a Yu Chengxun, a Yang Weicong, Yu Chengxun is his brother-in-law, and he is considered his own person, so naturally there is no need to doubt it. It is estimated that Yang Weicong ...... Haha, I'm afraid I'm going to be questioned. ”

Tang Yin shook his head and said: "Your problems since childhood, you are scheming, so it is not beneficial for you to be an official." Belch...... In this way, Yang Dafu was separated by you? ”

While teaching Zhu Hao a lesson, he was deliberating on Zhu Hao's specific plan.

Zhu Hao said: "I guess that Yang Yongxiu's next plan is to secretly test it, and tell Yang Weicong alone about something that we will never think of, and then see if we know about it to determine whether this person can still be trusted." ”

"It's over!"

Tang Yin sighed, "You have calculated it to this point, I estimate that Yang Dafu's career is worrying." The list is in Hanyuan, and the future is unlimited...... I'm afraid that none of the people who quarrel with you will end well. ”
