Chapter 168: Arrogant Wang Lin
Yuwen Yuanzhen has accepted the fact that he has become the prime minister.
Next, he needs to set up his own office for the prime minister.
The officials in the prime minister's office, although they are low, are directly under the management of the prime minister.
In the past, many officials flattered just for the quota.
But Yuwen Yuanzhen did not choose from among the courtiers.
Instead, he went to the Ministry of Officials to ask for a copy of the information of officials at all levels, and began to select.
Those who can be selected must be young talents with good conduct.
Moreover, it is necessary to have a family background without stains.
Secondly, it is to focus on selecting from the children of poor families.
Yuwen Yuanzhen quickly selected a batch of places and handed the list to the East Palace.
Guo Tianyi didn't look carefully, and said directly, "Teacher, you can rest assured to do it boldly, if there is anything, I will carry it for you." ”
Guo Tianyi's attitude did not make Yuwen Yuanzhen complacent.
On the contrary, he once again emphasized in his heart that he should deny himself and serve the public and assist His Highness wholeheartedly.
"Minister, I will live up to the high expectations of His Highness."
"Teacher, in fact, there is no need to be so alienated between you and me, Jin Yiwei will also help the teacher to assist in managing the affairs of the capital, teacher, you make Gu feel very uncomfortable."
"Your Highness, the king is the king, the minister is the minister, and the minister does not dare to overstep..."
Yuwen Yuanzhen's attitude was clear, which made Guo Tianyi feel helpless.
History is always strikingly similar.
As he got closer and closer to the throne, even as his own teacher, he was trembling.
No wonder every emperor calls himself a widow.
Because the emperor had no real friends.
But there is one thing, Guo Tianyi is very happy.
That is, it is better to be feared than to be close to others.
He is the future emperor, and in many cases, he can't do things with personal feelings.
Guo Tianyi originally wanted to talk to Yuwen Yuanzhen today.
But now it seems that it is impossible to communicate normally.
After a few more pleasantries, Yuwenyuan retreated.
Guo Tianyi had nothing to do, so he went straight to the harem.
I spoiled Zhang Qiyue last night, Zhang Qiyue is really a little goblin...
After the court bureau now has Yuwen Yuanzhen, the new prime minister, a new pattern has also emerged.
Today's courtiers are not as dominant as before.
It's about diversity.
Yan Xiliang is a good man, but Yuwen Yuanzhen is not.
Its reputation is great, and its means are tough, whether it is a noble or an important minister, he does not dare to be too arrogant in front of Yuwen Yuanzhen.
This is also what Guo Tianyi is happy to see.
Shepherds generally do not run with their flocks themselves.
There are often excellent sheepdogs to look after the flock.
The other side.
Wang Zhenwei's injuries have also recovered a lot.
The torture he had previously endured in the penal department was so horrific that he could not even get out of bed and walk.
Today, an old acquaintance came to Wang Zhenevil's mansion.
It is Wang Zhenxi's cousin, who can also be regarded as a relative of Guo Tianyi's uncle, named Wang Lin.
Wang Lin and Wang Zhenwei are cousins.
is eight years younger than Wang Zhenxi, and he is only thirty-five this year.
With the rise of Guo Tianyi, most of the vassal princes were killed, and some of the nobles in the capital were cautious, and some were as high as the tide.
Concubine Rong's relatives of the Wang family are a clear example.
At the beginning, Wang Weining, who was flying and domineering among the relatives of the Wang family, was cleaned up by Guo Tianyi for the righteous extermination of relatives, and most of the relatives of the Wang family kept a low profile.
But since Guo Tianyi became the prince and supervised the country, some of the relatives of the Wang family still drifted.
For example, Wang Lin is a typical representative.
He originally served in the household department, but he was only an inspector of the household department, and he was not even qualified to go to the court to discuss matters.
But because Guo Tianyi became the prince, the threshold of Wang Lin's family was about to be trampled on.
The same is true for Wang Zhenxi's side.
Although Wang Zhenwei is recuperating from his illness, officials from various ministries and nobles visit him every day and give him a lot of nourishing gifts.
For the sake of human affection, Wang Zhenwei is not easy to refuse some officials who originally had a good relationship.
But Wang Zhenevil still has a bottom line.
He will never help people do some excessive things.
But Wang Lin is different.
Today, he came to discuss with his cousin for the sake of a "friend" to see if he could get a royal decree from the East Palace to complete this matter.
"Brother, I heard that you can get out of bed and walk, you look good..."
Wang Lin was full of spring, his steps were vain, his body looked hollowed out, and he said with a bit of elegance.
"Why are you here again?"
"Isn't it for your friend's business again?"
Wang Zhenwei was basking in the sun in the small courtyard, and when he saw Wang Lin, he frowned.
"Good brother, I really can't hide anything from you..."Wang Lin handed over the two boxes of gifts he was holding in his hand to his subordinates, and said flatteringly, "Brother, the status of our Wang family is not what it used to be, and besides, the matter of my friend is not a violation of the law of Dafeng, only need you, brother..."
Wang Zhenwei is Guo Tianyi's uncle.
And he has a good relationship with Guo Tianyi.
If Wang Zhen was willing to come forward to go to the East Palace, the matter entrusted by his friend would be fine.
"I advise you to die of this heart." Wang Zhen said solemnly, "Have you forgotten how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince punished those corrupt officials before? ”
"Oh, brother..."Wang Lin patted his thigh and said, "My friend is just his own brother who was arrested by the Criminal Department, and his own brother has not committed any serious crimes that hurt heaven and reason, this kind of thing, you can go to the East Palace to find Qiu Yu and others for a word..."
The friend in Wang Lin's mouth is a nobleman.
It's really his friend who gave too much.
Otherwise, Wang Lin would not have run to Wang Zhen's evil house again and again.
After Guo Tianyi's reshuffle, the Criminal Department changed people from the Fa family, most of whom were Wang Yuan's people.
Who is Taiwei Wang Yuan?
This is an iron-breaded man.
A ruthless person who does not hesitate to lose his head in order to cut the domain.
Can ordinary people get through his relationships?
Except for the people in the East Palace, no one is easy to use.
"Wang Lin, you and my brother, I advise you not to destroy your future." Wang Zhen said with an unkind face, "Do you think I don't know about the good things you have done recently, but I heard that you have taken a few new concubines, and you have taken them by force, and even broke one of other people's legs in the Red Man Pavilion the day before yesterday, so Yin Zhangmao of Shuntian Mansion will give you face?" ”
The rumors that Wang Zhenwei heard were only part of it.
Wang Lin is a person who is good at leisure and hard work, but these days as more and more people come to praise him, he gradually loses himself.
He is now not short of money, there is no shortage of beautiful women, and his biggest hobby is to play with women.
Some of the concubines in the family were given by the nobles.
Some are directly occupied.
There is also a fight in the Red Man Pavilion that not only breaks someone else's leg, but also sends evil slaves to beat him to death afterwards and throws his body into the river....
These are just the tip of the iceberg.
Wang Lin's life is no worse than that of some previous princes.
Just because Guo Tianyi is the prince of the prison country, he has the capital to be arrogant and domineering.
"Brother, don't listen to outsiders, I..."
"You don't have to say much, I advise you to do it yourself, you can go."
"Brother, aren't you willing to help with a word?"
"Come, send off, throw out his gifts..."
Wang Zhenwei ran out of patience and directly asked the housekeeper to blast Wang Lin out.
In fact, many people have done this kind of thing before.
But the noble officials are dead.
For example, Huai Guogong, who committed a lot of crimes, was also close to the King of Jin, and finally ended up with a Zhujiu clan.
Wang Zhenwei knew too well that Wang Lin was now dying, so he didn't care about his brotherhood and blew him away, hoping that Wang Lin could stop the precipice.
