Although Li Huan was greatly shocked, it was hard to ask openly. It was good to know this kind of thing.
After all, Li Huan still had little experience. Within a few words after returning to the palace, he was almost tricked by Emperor Jingwen.
Li Huan himself didn't realize anything, but Emperor Jingwen was very satisfied after he retreated.
"Xie Xiuwen does have a clear mind at all times. He knows his responsibilities and knows more clearly what he can and cannot do as a minister. Yes, I will feel relieved to have him help me in the future. .”
These words are equivalent to determining Xie Xiuwen's status in the future in disguise.
The general manager lowered his head and did not dare to answer. He did not dare to spread this kind of news.
However, the Grand Manager also figured it out at this time. His Majesty valued the Fifth Highness the most. If there were no accidents, it would be His Highness the Fifth Highness who would take over the East Palace in the future.
It is undeniable that Emperor Jingwen was a wise king, but he had worked so hard over the years that no matter how strong his body was, he could not bear it.
Fortunately, he has had a few capable ministers to help him over the years, which at least allowed him to sleep peacefully. Otherwise, his body would have suffered huge losses.
The Chief Manager has been with the Holy Lord for many years, so he naturally knows everything. It is not unreasonable for the Holy Lord to express his deep gratitude to Lord Xiuwen.
Over the years, Lord Xie Xiuwen has recommended many young ministers, some of whom are from aristocratic families, but most of whom are from poor families.
And no matter how Mr. Xie recommended him or how he reported it, he never took credit for himself in front of others. He always emphasized that when working as kings, we should put the overall situation first.
Over the years, Mr. Xie has not formed a clique, and he is different from Mr. Zheng Ge and others, so he is trusted by the Holy One.
After thinking about this, the Chief Manager felt that he would have to rely more on His Highness the Fifth Prince and Mr. Xie in the future.
In just ten years, Xie Xiuwen has gone from being ranked second on the list to becoming a third-rank official minister, which is something that many people would never dare to imagine.
But Xie Xiuwen did it.
And for many years, his official reputation has been good. Even if there is some controversy, it is innocuous. Even if his wife has extra money, she will think of helping her husband to appease the victims or rescue some orphans and widowed mothers. , In this way, no one will underestimate Mrs. Xie anymore.
Wang Jin has an upright temperament, and sometimes he doesn't know how to deal with things tactfully, which will inevitably offend others. Xie Xiuwen still found an opportunity to recommend Wang Jin and let him join the Ministry of Civil Affairs as the right minister.
Among the six departments, each department has two ministers. Although they are both of the fourth rank, they are still divided into left and right.
Generally speaking, the one on the left is up.
Wang Jin was able to be promoted to the position of fourth-grade minister, all thanks to Xie Xiuwen's promotion. Otherwise, given his popularity, not to mention his promotion, whether he could stay safely in the capital was a question.
Having the ability is one thing, but being able to give yourself the opportunity to use your ability is another matter.
Xie Lin still joined the Ministry of Household Affairs, but his position was not high. Now he is only a doctor in the Ministry of Finance of the fifth rank, but he also serves as a lecturer in the Chongwen Hall, which is the fourth rank. So strictly speaking, Xie Lin's official rank is not low, but The power in his hands is not that great, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xie Lin will be promoted sooner or later.
Now that Emperor Jingwen brought up the matter of clearing his father-in-law again, the most urgent one was the Ministry of Husbandry.
Qingzhang is a big project that cannot be completed in three to five months. It can take at least half a year, and in many years it can take more than a year to complete.
The most important thing is that this time, I heard that the emperor's purification is still to prepare for some important things in the future. Their emperor wants to take advantage of the jobs of the powerful people of the family.
Therefore, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance and the two ministers took sick leave every three days, which can be said to be taking turns to take off work, for fear that this drudgery would be assigned to them again.
This is a hard job that offends people. Even if it means taking a break for half a year due to illness, it is better than taking on this hard job.
However, Emperor Jingwen had this kind of temperament.
Are you able to stop doing it if you want to?
The various factions in the court began to temporarily unite together over the issue of clearing the father-in-law. Of course, Xie Xiuwen was not included in this.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with His Majesty's decision. Whether it was the one-whip method proposed by the late Emperor or the New Deal, there was nothing wrong with it.
The people are the foundation of the world. If the common people cannot be fed and clothed, the world will be in chaos sooner or later!
Therefore, Xie Xiuwen fundamentally supports the Holy Emperor's New Deal.
Of course, no matter how the Holy One decides to take this path, Qingzhang is the first step.
There were more than ten vassal princes in the Dazhi Dynasty, and they were basically idle princes. According to the system, there were three thousand soldiers in the palace, and these had to be princes.
Some princes only have a thousand soldiers.
Therefore, Emperor Jingwen had never worried about rebellion, except for Prince Ping.
If he hadn't opened up the iron mine privately, it wouldn't have triggered a whole series of incidents later.
As for the other vassal kings, they naturally did not have the courage.
The governor's mansions in each state's capital and the governor's mansion are not just decorations!
However, although they cannot rebel, they still have some privileges in other aspects.
For example, in one's own fiefdom, the fertile land is taken as one's own, and the secondary fields and wasteland are distributed to the people.
For another example, if they are from a powerful family, if they are interested in someone's land, they only need to talk and wait for the other party to take the initiative to come to their door.
In short, if you want to implement the New Deal, the first big problem will be the feudal princes and royal family members of Daji.
Shangguan Hubu obviously didn't want to offend anyone, but he didn't dare to say it directly, so he could only think of various ways to frustrate the emperor.
Finally, on this day, Emperor Jingwen couldn't bear it anymore and became furious!
"Okay, the right minister of household affairs feels that he has too much leisure time at work. Either he is sick or falls, or his mother is sick at home. In this case, I will help him and let him fulfill his filial piety at home and be a good man. Be a filial son!"
As soon as these words came out, the Minister of Hubu became anxious: "Your Majesty!"
"Shut up!" Emperor Jingwen knew what he was going to say, so he shouted back: "Where is Xie Lin?"
Xie Lin immediately stepped out: "The humble minister is here."
"From now on, I will be promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of Revenue. I will immediately cooperate with the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the left minister to draw up the matter of clearing the father-in-law."
"I obey the order."
The main reason why Xie Lin was promoted slowly was that he had observed filial piety for the old man for one year, and Xie Yu had observed filial piety for three years. However, at his age, it was enough for him to be the chief official of a temple.
Moreover, Xie Yu knew very well what his talents were, and he did not dare to dream of becoming prime minister.
Xie Lin was directly promoted to a fourth-grade official this time, but everyone in the court was shocked.
Without it, it's just because everyone saw from this incident the Holy Spirit's determination to implement the New Deal, and knew that it could no longer be stopped.
There was no color in the book of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance. Who would have known that in just the blink of an eye, he lost a powerful arm. What should we do next, what should we do?
