Well, now, the post of Minister of the Provincial Ministry of Civil Affairs is vacant. Lan
For such a position, there are many people below, and their eyes are bleeding. The minister is basically equivalent to half a prime minister. Who doesn't want to do it? And it’s also the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
The Ministry of Civil Affairs is the Ministry of Household Affairs. At the beginning of the founding of the Sui Dynasty, it was called the Du Branch, and later it was changed to the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Historically, because it was necessary to avoid the taboo of Li Shimin's name, it was changed to the Ministry of Household Affairs. Without Li Shimin, it would have been Always called the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
Wei Chong's death had a great impact, so Yang Guang ordered that the competition in the suburbs of Beijing be postponed for a few days, because officials from all departments in the capital would go to Wei Mansion to express their condolences, and Yang Ming also had to go.
After all, Wei Chong has been in this position for many years, and Jingzhao Wei's family business is currently on the rise, and the most embarrassing result is that it is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the family. .
Yang Ming could almost foresee that the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs would be a bloody battle.
Li Baiyao was so frightened that he was trembling when he saw Yang Ming in the palace.
"Don't worry, my father also knows about your matter. Wei Ting said everything, and my father didn't blame you." Yang Ming comforted the other party: "Actually, you did the right thing, but the luck of the Wei family is also bad." It’s too much.” Lan
It was really too much. One accidentally fell to death, and the other died suddenly. It was really bizarre.
In history, Princess Qi did die young, and Yang Ming did not expect that she would die in such a way.
As for Yang Jian's adultery, Yang Guang and Empress Xiao will definitely suppress it, but they may not be able to suppress it. After all, too many people were killed, and Wei Chong died in Shangshu Province. This matter will definitely spread.
At most, everyone will not say it publicly in the future, and they will only smile crookedly behind their backs.
Regarding the matter, Li Baiyao leaked it to Wei Ting, and Yang Guang did not suspect Yang Ming because it was Wei Ting who took the initiative to find him, not Wei Ting who Li Baiyao went to find.
These two people had a good personal relationship, Yang Guang knew it, and Yang Guang quite recognized Li Baiyao's character, because he had recruited Li Baiyao many years ago, but the boy did not agree at the time.
Wei Ting will not doubt Li Baiyao in his heart, because this kind of scandal is not something good friends will tell you. Others would rather hide away and watch the joke, so he actually doesn't care about Li Baiyao. It's gratitude. Lan
For example, your wife is renting a room with another man, and a friend finds out about it and tells you. Isn’t that funny? You can't think that your friend is unkind, right?
In the next two days, the entire capital was discussing this matter behind the scenes, and more of them were preparing to exert their efforts to compete for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
Princess Yang Yinjiang recommended someone to Yang Ming.
It's none other than Brother Xuangan.
"Can he do it?" Yang Ming asked the maid to take off his clothes and got into bed. As for his son Yang Rui, he was looked after by his wet nurse in the cubicle.
Yang Yinjiang came over and said: "Whether it works or not, you have to give it a try. This position is too important and must not fall into the hands of others."
Historically, Yang Xuangan served as the Minister of Rites, but that was only arranged by Yang Guang after Yang Su died and attacked the Duke of Chu. Lan
Xuangan's job has not been very stable in the past few years. He was first the Minister of Rites, and then went to the Ministry of Personnel to be the Minister. After Gao Jiong resigned from office, he thought about taking over at Taichang Temple.
He didn't even think about it, Taichang Temple was the head of the eleven temples, could he take over?
At present, he is still hanging in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but he is relatively slack at work because he does not get along well with Yang Gongren, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
The two of them are about the same age, and have had conflicts since childhood. No one can like the other. It's a grudge, but not an enmity.
Yang Ming hugged his wife and muttered:
"It's hard to judge this position now. It mainly depends on the emperor's wishes. In the current Shangshu Province, Su Wei is the left servant and the right servant is in the sky. The father probably doesn't plan to let him go. So, Whoever is in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs will involve the interests of many parties, and the water is very deep."
The official is Yang Gongren, who is part of the clan and can also be considered a princeling. Lan
Niu Hong of the Ministry of Rites, a veteran of the founding emperor.
Yu Wenkai from the Ministry of Industry was a member of Yang Guang.
Yu Wenbi of the Ministry of Punishment was a veteran of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and a member of Yang Lihua.
Li Yuantong of the Ministry of War was Yang Jian's retainer. His father, Li Jing, was a retainer of Emperor Taizu Yang Zhong. He had an affair with a maid in Yang Zhong's mansion and gave birth to him. This man saved Yang Jian's life when he was young. During the reign of Emperor Kaihuang, he served as the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, but later he became the palace chief of the previous Qin King Yang Jun. He was implicated and dismissed from office. However, Yang Jian missed his old relationship and re-appointed him and was granted the title of Duke of Wan'an County.
These five people belong to different factions, and Wei Chong is a princeling.
So it is very likely that the person who will fill this position in the future will still be a princeling.
As for Yang Xuangan, everyone knows that he is the father-in-law of King Qin. He has no relationship with Prince Mao, and the possibility of ascending to the throne is zero. Lan
Yang Ming didn't want to offend his wife and said with a smile: "Otherwise, let's forget about Minister of Civil Affairs. I even think that the person who fills this position in the future is likely to be an unknown candidate who will shock people. "
Yang Yinjiang said blankly: "Why do you think so?"
Her mouth was talking, but her hands under the quilt were not honest at all.
Yang Ming held back and said:
"Everyone is fighting. If you give it to this person, that person will be dissatisfied. If you give it to that person, this person will not be happy. So it is better to give it to someone outside the circle. With my father's wise methods, I can actually do it."
Yang Yinjiang was speechless:
"But you still have to mention my father's affairs at the court meeting. You have never spoken for him. My father has always had a knot in his heart. As long as he mentions it, he has nothing to complain about." Lan
"Of course, everything is possible," Yang Ming said: "Maybe I can really master the mysterious sense, maybe."
Next, the couple played Tetris for a while.
The next day, Chen Shuyi came to see Yang Ming early and said that it was her uncle Chen Shuda who came to pay a visit. In fact, Chen Shuda had come several times before, but Yang Ming was not there.
Chen Shuda was a talented person. Historically, among the talented people of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, being able to become the Minister of Rites and the title of Duke was not something he could do by luck.
Moreover, Yang Ming also knew that this man was a good friend of Ouyang Xun. Unfortunately, Ouyang Xun's calligraphy was not valuable in the Sui Dynasty, or in other words, it was not valuable here in Yang Ming.
Because Yang Ming can definitely invite the other party to the palace, let alone write a calligraphy, he can just copy the scriptures.
And how could Yang Ming not give Chen Shuyi face? Lan
In the reception room in the inner garden, only people close to you can enter.
After Chen Shuda saw Yang Ming, he was flattered and hurriedly saluted.
In front of Chen Shuyi, Yang Ming was still very good at making trouble. He quickly stepped forward to support the other person and said with a smile:
"We are all our own people, no need to see outsiders."
In one sentence, Chen Shuda seemed to have received reassurance that he was able to become an official only through nepotism, and for this reason, he was often looked down upon in the imperial city.
But if he can get close to the big tree of King Qin, no one in the imperial city will dare to laugh at him anymore.
Chen Shuyi was also present. She poured a pot of tea for her uncle, then sat aside and said: Lan
"I haven't seen my uncle for a long time. Are you still used to being in Taichang Temple these days?"
Saying that, Chen Shuyi winked at the other party. Chen Shuda immediately understood, smiled sheepishly, lowered his head and sighed softly.
In fact, since Gao Jiong was dismissed from office, he has lived a very hard life in Taichang Temple. Although everyone knows that he has two nieces who are His Majesty's favorite concubines, no one takes them seriously.
Who can serve in the imperial city without a backing? Especially since he is from the old royal family, he will definitely be squeezed out.
Chen Shuyi also knew about this situation, so she hinted to him to make a request quickly while seeing Yang Ming.
When Yang Ming saw this, he immediately understood and said with a smile:
"I have been working in Taichang Temple for more than half a year. It is time to move to another place. Shuyi is my royal concubine, so Zicong (Chen Shuda) is my own family, and the position below the fifth rank in the imperial city is , as long as I mention it, my father will not deny it. Wherever Zicong likes to go, we will go there this time." Lan.
That is to say, Yang Ming dares to say this. In fact, there is no need to disturb Yang Guang for the official positions of the seventh and eighth grades. It is just a matter of saying hello. It is also easy to arrange around the fifth grade, because there are many fifth grade idlers in the eleventh temple. Bad, the level is high, but it doesn’t have much power, so it’s easier to squeeze people in.
But this time, Yang Ming intended to let the other party enter the Shangshu Province, because that was the real core department of the Sui Dynasty.
Most of the officials in the Shangshu Province need Yang Guang's nod.
Although others have said this, Chen Shuda definitely does not dare to make requests. In his opinion, he can go anywhere. Anyway, this time, King Qin personally recommends him, so no one will ostracize and ridicule him in the future.
"But according to His Highness's arrangements, I will go wherever you ask me to go."
Chen Shuyi smiled, looked at Yang Ming, and blinked.
Yang Ming smiled and said: "Just wait, once the six departments are vacant, you can come in." Lan
In Shangshu Province, there is a carrot and a pit. You can't block people at any time if you want to. The only one who has this ability is Yang Guang.
As for Yang Guang, he did not force his way into the people, but added a few new positions and then stuffed them in. In short, there was a trick to everything.
Chen Shuda knew it was time to leave. After standing up to thank him, he was about to leave.
Yang Ming raised his hand and said: "I regard Shuyi as my wife. Zicong can come to the palace often from now on. The concierge will say hello. There is no need to inform you when you come again."
This honor would make Chen Shuda even more excited than entering the Shangshu Province. If he could come to Prince Qin's palace often, his superiors would not dare to show off to him, let alone a colleague.
With Yang Ming as his backer, he was truly established in the capital.
So he thanked him profusely and even cried with excitement. Chen Shuyi hurriedly coaxed him out of the palace. Lan
In Yang Ming's opinion, Chen Shuda and his wife had contributed to Wang Zhuoling's matter, and Yang Ming also heard that his father, Yang Guang, had been living in Wang Zhuoling's dormitory recently, which shows that he is very favored at the moment.
Pillow style is a very dangerous thing, and Yang Ming cannot ignore it. Fortunately, at least three of his father's favorite concubines will speak for Yang Ming.
As for the queen mother Xiao, it goes without saying, but Yang Ming did not dare to be careless, and he still had to maintain a good relationship with his mother.
After Chen Shuyi came back, she sat on Yang Ming's lap coquettishly and said with a smile:
"thank you."
Yang Ming slapped the opponent's butt vigorously and said with a smile: "It depends on how you thank me."
"Of course you can pick it up," Chen Shuyi's cold lips sealed Yang Ming's mouth. Lan
That's how she is. Once her desires arise, she knows no place.
