Zhao Feng looked at the official from the Ministry of Personnel with some surprise. What does it mean that he has no authority to deal with it?
Moreover, even if other people were to be interviewed by numerous people, they would leave the memorial here. How could they get here and let themselves hold the memorial instead?
Zhao Feng was extremely confused, while the two prefects next to him were a little shocked. Seeing that Zhao Feng had not yet reacted, they quickly pulled Zhao Feng out.
"Master Zhao, you haven't reacted yet?"
Zhao Feng held the memorial in his hand with some confusion and asked the two of them.
"What's the reaction?"
"By the way, I just wanted to ask the two adults for advice. Others left the memorials there, so how come they didn't even look at them when they came to me?"
The two prefects looked at each other, burst out laughing, and said to Zhao Feng.
"Congratulations, Mr. Zhao!"
"Congratulations, Mr. Zhao is about to become rich!"
Zhao Feng became even more confused when he heard what the two of them said. Seeing that Zhao Feng hadn't reacted yet, the two of them couldn't help but shake their heads and smile. It seemed that Zhao Feng really didn't know what this meant.
So the two of them said to Zhao Feng very seriously.
"Mr. Zhao, this means that the court should have heard about what you have done, and because of Mr. Zhao's outstanding political achievements, he intends to let this matter be handled by higher officials."
"He, a small official, naturally has no authority to handle this matter, so we say that Mr. Zhao is going to be prosperous!"
Zhao Feng finally understood and couldn't help but waved his hand helplessly.
"So this is ah."
Seeing Zhao Feng's calm reaction, the two prefects suddenly looked at Zhao Feng with some confusion.
"Master Zhao, why are you not happy at all?"
Zhao Feng smiled awkwardly. Is this something worth being happy about?
But Zhao Feng also wanted to know what among the things he had done, what on earth deserved to be treated like this by those people?
Zhao Feng felt that everything he did was mediocre!
The two prefects had already handed in the memorial, so they probably had nothing to do with them, so they went back to the posthouse to rest.
Zhao Feng stayed here, intending to see how his affairs would be resolved.
Even after all the officials who came to report on their duties had handed in their memorials, no one responded to Zhao Feng, which made Zhao Feng very confused.
The official from the Ministry of Personnel came out and saw that Zhao Feng was still here, so he quickly came over and said.
"Master Zhao, please go back first. Someone will probably come to invite you in the next day or two!"
"By the way, do you live in a post house?"
Zhao Feng shook his head and left his residence, and then he planned to return to Shen's house full of doubts, waiting for someone from the official department to come and call him.
But as soon as he walked out of the staff department, he heard a very familiar and hearty voice.
"I guessed that Mr. Zhao would be here, brother, am I right?"
"Haha, I knew you were the smartest!"
Zhao Feng raised his head in surprise, and after seeing the two people in front of him, he quickly bowed his hands respectfully.
"I have met the eldest prince, His Highness the Fourth Prince!"
The visitors were none other than Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang. Zhou Rui came over and patted Zhao Feng on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Okay, we are already old friends, so we don't need to pay attention to so many false etiquette."
Zhou Kang also smiled and nodded, and said to Zhao Feng with great anticipation.
"We have known for a long time that officials will come to Beijing one after another in the past few days to report on their duties. When we saw that Mr. Zhao did not come to us, we guessed that Mr. Zhao must have come to the Ministry of Personnel first."
"As expected, Mr. Zhao, you have to have a drink with us this time!"
Zhao Feng nodded, and he was very happy to see Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang treating him as usual.
The identities of Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang were completely different from his. They were princes of the Zhou Dynasty, while he was only a prefect at most.
But because the three of them had similar aspirations, they became good friends early on.
Originally, Zhao Feng thought that when he came to the capital this time, he would also pay a good visit to Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang, but he did not expect that the two of them would come to see him first.
Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang laughed twice and pulled Zhao Feng straight to Zhou Kang's other courtyard.
The servants in the mansion had already arranged the meals, and Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang took Zhao Feng to the table directly.
Seeing Zhao Feng wearing the official uniform of a prefect, Zhou Kang nodded with great satisfaction.
"I knew that if Mr. Zhao's talent entered the officialdom, he would definitely not be buried!"
"Mr. Zhao, maybe you can stay in the capital this time!"
Zhao Feng looked at Zhou Kang in surprise and asked in confusion.
"Your Highness, what do you mean?"
Zhou Kang rolled his eyes and it seemed that Zhao Feng didn't know about this yet, so he quickly raised his glass and said in a concealed manner.
"I just wish Mr. Zhao can be promoted soon."
"Come on, the three of us haven't seen each other for a long time, let's drink this cup together!"
Zhou Rui and Zhao Feng both smiled and raised their glasses, and the three of them had a good chat, mainly asking about their respective situations.
There are basically no changes on Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang's side, although the matter of seizing the heir has become dire, and the officials in the court have taken sides, which has also pushed Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang to the forefront.
But Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang didn't show much interest in this matter. Speaking of Zhao Feng, Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang both praised the things Zhao Feng had created.
"Mr. Zhao, although you are not in the capital, we have heard about your deeds in the capital!"
"The snowflake salt and cement you made have solved the problems of people's livelihood and the construction of the imperial court."
"With these two items alone, Mr. Zhao's name is well known to everyone!"
Zhao Feng asked in surprise: "Is it so exaggerated?"
Zhou Rui and Zhou Kang looked at each other and couldn't help but smile. In fact, the situation was more exaggerated than this, but they didn't say much.
Seeing the bulge in Zhao Feng's arms, Zhou Kang asked curiously.
"Mr. Zhao, what do you have in your arms?"
Zhao Feng smiled and took out the memorial in his arms.
"Isn't this a memorial for going to Beijing to report on my duties? The officials don't want it, so I have to take it myself first."
Zhou Kang suddenly became interested and asked Zhao Feng quickly.
"I wonder if Mr. Zhao can show me this memorial?"
Zhao Feng handed over the memorial generously. Zhou Kang was the prince and his friend, so Zhao Feng didn't think there was anything wrong with this matter.
Zhou Rui also curiously went over to take a look, but when they saw the contents of the memorial, the two of them immediately couldn't laugh or cry.
