Chapter 549: This is officialdom
"Lord He, it's been a long time!"
"Ouch, isn't this Lord Liu? If it weren't for the activities organized by the emperor this time, I'm afraid you and I might not have met once in more than ten years! ”
The two were in the imperial dining room, and as soon as they met, they got together and talked about recent events.
"No wonder, since Shanxi parted, you and I probably haven't seen each other for ten years, if it weren't for the coincidence, I wouldn't know that you had been transferred to the palace!"
Even when they were transferred from the local government to the central government, the two men only held inconsequential positions, and they had no contact with each other.
On this day, all the rooms in the imperial dining room were used to set up the boards, large and small tables were placed side by side, and a large number of tables were also placed in the open space outside.
Because the imperial dining room is only a place where a few dignitaries usually cook, the area is not large, and now most of the officials above the court, even ordinary eunuchs and palace maids, have to come over, this imperial dining room is obviously not full, so the table can only be placed outside.
Therefore, an interesting phenomenon has been formed, that is, people in high positions have consciously walked into the house, and those low-status, even the most ordinary eunuchs and palace maids, are standing silently outside the house.
"Isn't this Lord Feng? You're the latest celebrity, please come in, don't catch a cold when it's windy outside! ”
At this time, Master Feng of the Ministry of Industry was silently wrapping dumplings, but in a blink of an eye, he was recognized by others, and he took his arm and walked into the house.
"Well, I'm out there and I'm in the mood, what are you pulling me in? Besides, I'm wearing a lot of clothes today, and it's hot in the house, and it's cooler outside! ”
Isn't it different inside and outside the house, you just look at the warmth inside the house, right?
"Lord Feng, look at the people who are breading outside, you are the waiter of the Ministry of Works!"
Although he is just a squire now, he is called by the emperor every day, and this status and identity are not much worse than the general above.
And I heard that the emperor seems to have prepared a big official for him, and when a new type of currency is issued, he will be transferred.
They don't seize this opportunity to rub the relationship, and wait until they are promoted, who will still look up to you at that time?
"What's wrong? What does this lord mean is to look down on us who do menial work?"
Lord Feng's face immediately changed, and the two people who came to woo him were frightened.
The purpose of their coming is to make them leave a good impression in the minds of this soon-to-be-promoted Lord Liu.
But this time it's good, not only did it not leave a good impression, but it was disliked and hostile by others, how is this good!
The two of them complained bitterly in their hearts, but at this time, they could only continue to talk hard.
If they go back like this, wouldn't it be to let everyone present know that the two of them had offended Lord Feng, who was on fire at the moment, and at that time the two of them would inevitably be squeezed out by most of the officials of the imperial court, and the future of the two of them would be over.
"Lord Feng, that's not what we meant!"
"Yes, yes, your body is more delicate than theirs, it's cold outside, and the wind is blowing, if you accidentally hurt your body and get caught in the cold, it will be difficult to work after that!"
Two of you, you say a word, I say a word,
"That's right, if you hurt your body, then the task entrusted by Your Majesty to the Ministry of Industry will not be able to be carried out normally, you are an important person in this project, if you delay Your Majesty's major affairs because of your wind and cold, and betray Your Majesty's trust in you, then this is my mistake!"
Although the beard and the horse do not all have a role to play, this kind of talk is something that everyone loves to hear.
After hearing this, Lord Feng's face turned from anger to joy.
Sure enough, the role of this official in the Ministry of Industry can be seen even by these two officials who have never met.
And what the two of them said is not unreasonable, if I fail His Majesty's trust in the Ministry of Industry because of my personal affairs, then I will not be able to tell those craftsmen who work day and night in the Ministry of Industry!
But he looked at the palace maids and eunuchs and the miscellaneous people outside, and then at the officials in the house, and it was still difficult to choose in his heart.
The two of them saw that Lord Feng's mood seemed to have improved, and they were secretly happy in their hearts, but they had a good impression now.
Next, if Lord Feng is brought in, and then he has a warm conversation with Lord Feng in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, then doesn't this show that they have an excellent relationship with Lord Feng?
For the sake of Lord Feng's face, they can also be taken care of a lot of their activities in the palace in the future!
This is something that the two of them have no background to dream of!
In the future, if they can communicate more, not to mention how big the officials are, at least in this palace, they can also straighten their waists and be people.
"Lord Feng, I didn't expect you to be outside!"
The three of them were talking in a hurry, and they didn't notice the step of a person at all, which made the officials present quiet!
And this big official, who was enough to attract the attention of all the officials in the audience, actually came to Lord Feng's side first at this time!
"Lord Yang!"
Hearing the voice, Feng Naren was stunned for a moment, and then greeted enthusiastically, and these two little officials who came to climb the relationship, when they saw who it was, they were directly startled.
Who is Lord Yang?
That's the right-hand man of the Son of Heaven!
Its status and power can be said to be second only to His Majesty, even if it is that Su Wu, I am afraid that it will be inferior to Lord Yang!
After all, when His Royal Highness led the army and marched into western Sichuan, he was in charge of the world, but this cabinet capital, Lord Yang!
In the history of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that there are only the princes and grandsons of the past dynasties, and Lord Yang is not a descendant of His Majesty the Emperor, but he can also be appointed to such an important position by His Majesty.
It is enough to see His Majesty's trust in this Lord Yang!
The real existence of one person and ten thousand people!
For these two small officials, it was an unattainable mountain!
Yang ...... Lord Yang! I didn't expect you to come here too! ”
These two officials, their voices were already a little trembling, they dared to talk to Lord Feng here because Lord Feng had not been promoted, and Lord Yang was standing at the top of the pyramid of all officials.
Even if it is ten promoted Lord Feng, it can't compare to one Yang Shiqi!
"Your Majesty's ceremony, how can I, as a courtier, not come?"
Yang Shiqi said, and looked at the dumplings wrapped by Master Feng on the board.
"Brother Feng, the craftsmanship of this dumpling is not bad!"
"Why don't you cook it and give me a little bit?" (End of chapter)
