Domineering Daming

Sun Chuanting looked at Wang Qiaonian with some reluctance, and said: "30 people, no more, if you go to the emperor, I will kill this number."

Wang Qiaonian frowned, knowing that this was Sun Chuanting's limit, so he reluctantly acquiesced.

Prince Jing wanted to speak at first, but seeing Sun Chuanting's firm expression, he shook his head secretly and said, "I'll forget it, next time."

Sun Chuanting smiled and said: "It's almost the end of the year, and you two should finish writing the summary notes as soon as possible.

Both of them nodded, with a little pride in their hearts.Although the current situation is difficult, but the prospects are gratifying, and they are getting started day by day, and are preparing to do a big job!

Outside the palace, rumors of the appointment of the Ministry of Officials finally spread, quietly permeating the capital.

Meng Zhaoxiang's proposed appointment as the Youfu Prime Minister of Shuntian Mansion, although it shocked many people's jaws, he reluctantly accepted it. After all, this person's resume is quite solid, plus the aura of "the new star of the imperial party". Nothing.

Wei Xuelian was going to the Qingfeng Department, which was not a big surprise. This institution has no rank, no rank, and few people in Daming care about it.

And Cao Dingjiao planned to be a member of the examination department of the Ministry of Officials, Wai Lang. Although he was an official at the sixth rank and was in charge of the examination department, there were too many members of the sixth rank, and there were as many as six ranks and above. In addition to Cao Dingjiao's family background, no one criticized him.

The others seemed quite satisfactory, nothing special. The only one who caused constant controversy and disturbance was Jinke Tanhua, Yu Jackie.

This person has a complicated background. Fang Kongxuan, Li Banghua and others jointly recommended him. Bi Ziyan praised him. Such a person should be expected to rise to the top, but unexpectedly, he was "assigned" to serve as a small county magistrate in Nan'an!

This shocked countless people's jaws, not only the people were boiling, but the court was also discussing it.

At this time, Yu Chenglong, who lived in a luxury inn, used to be full of traffic at the door, but now the door is deserted, and even the people in the inn are not warm or cold.

Yu Chenglong is sitting on a chair now, his face is gloomy, and his eyes are full of anger.

He couldn't figure out why the official department would do this. Others were promoted either in the capital or in all parts of Daming. Why was he alone sent to a wild place?

As for the exercise mentioned by the officials, who would believe such nonsense!

At this time, a man who looked like a book boy came in and said, "Young master, the letter has been sent. Mr. Bi Ge is staying in Shanxi now, and it is said that he will return to Beijing in three days."

Yu Chenglong's complexion did not change at all. These are things that cannot be quenched in the long-term. When the Ministry of Officials announces tomorrow, everything is done, and it will be difficult to reverse it!

Yu Chenglong's face was as dark as ink, he was thinking anxiously, thinking about the people who could help in the capital, after deliberation, he suddenly stood up and said, "Let's go to Cao's Mansion."

Half an hour later, Yu Chenglong left the Cao Mansion with a better complexion.

Cao Dingjiao stood in front of the door, beside Wei Xuelian and Meng Zhaoxiang.

Wei Xuelian looked strange, and said: "He said that he is loyal to the emperor, and you have always admired Lao Cao. What does this mean, surrender? Want to form a party with us?"

Meng Zhaoxiang shook his head and said with regret, "I was quite optimistic about this brother, but now it seems that he is also an old man."

Now there is a watershed between the government and the public, the Donglin Party and its affiliates are classified as "old", and the people of the "New Deal" faction are all newcomers.

Cao Dingjiao smiled calmly, glanced at the two of them, and said, "To tell you the truth, I have seen many people like him in recent years."

After Cao Dingjiao's words fell, the three of them shook their heads almost unanimously, and immediately the three of them couldn't help laughing.

Chapter 1108 Prince Jing's Playbook

Yu Chenglong surrendered to Cao Dingjiao and other "new elites of the imperial party", and his uneasiness was reduced a lot, but he still did not give up, and he went around the capital to post worship cards and walk around the relationship.

Yu Chenglong has a complicated background and has been recommended by many senior court officials. Although he was "assigned", many people are still willing to "declare".

The governor's office, the vice president, Han Qizhi and a group of people shook their heads when they saw Yu Chenglong's greeting card.

A person who seemed to be in charge looked at Han Qizhi and said, "My lord, Yu Jackie just went to Cao Dingjiao and the others, so he must have gotten some promises."

"What's the difference between promises and non-promises? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Cao Dingjiao and others will definitely be in the prime minister in the future, but Yu Chenglong is outside the Political Yuan. Being admitted is already a broad-minded court..."

"If you want me to say, the emperor is wise. This time the imperial examination distinguished all the people with ulterior motives. Now, it is said that there is a lot of traffic in front of Cao's mansion, which is busier than when Cao Zongbing was in Beijing. The people standing in line are getting more and more excited." more……"

"Hehe, that's not true. The future of Cao Dingjiao and others may go further than Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao..."

Han Qizhi was the servant of the Ministry of Punishments in the former dynasty. He had been out of the house for 40 years after Wanli, and was invited out of the mountain by King Jing to sit in the Governor's Council, which can be regarded as winning over a considerable number of people.

Han Qizhi glanced at the few people who were discussing, tapped the cigarette rod, and said expressionlessly: "Stop talking nonsense! If you dare to discuss state affairs indiscriminately, you will never be lightly forgiven!"

Everyone immediately fell silent. This vice-institute Han is King Jing's executioner. It's good that he doesn't speak. If he speaks, he has more prestige than Prince Jing in the Governor's Yuan!

Han Qizhi got up and left with his hands behind his back.As for Yu Jackie's invitation, I don't know where it went.

He has been in the Governor's Court for two years, his eyes are calm, he can see clearly, and he can see many things clearly.

This imperial examination is clearly a huge watershed, it is related to the fate of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also related to the future of everyone in the Ming Dynasty!

He can't judge the fate of the country, but he has seen some people clearly.For example, Yu Jackie, I am afraid that this time he will leave Beijing, and he will never return!

The imperial palace, the Hall of Renshou.

Zhu Xu, Empress Dowager Zhang, Zhang Yun, Li Jieyu, Hai Lanzhu, Xiao Yongning and others all gathered in front of the old concubine's bed, all with cautious expressions and breathless concentration.

Beside the bed, a white-haired old man pressed the old dowager's pulse and remained silent for a long time.

Zhu Xu put his heart into his throat, afraid of seeing the imperial doctor standing up and shaking his head at him.

Empress Dowager Zhang's face was also condensed, frowning, seeing Zhu Xu's appearance, she patted his arm lightly, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, the old concubine is blessed, she won't leave so soon."

Zhu Xu was distracted, and nodded reluctantly, still looking at the imperial physician who was taking the old concubine's pulse.

After a while, the old doctor stood up tremblingly, turned around with some difficulty, raised his hand and said to Zhu Xu: "Back to the emperor, the concubine's pulse is low, sometimes intermittent, intermittent, although it is dangerous, it will be fine tonight." .”

Zhu Xu frowned suddenly, and said, "Then what will happen after tonight?"

The old doctor hesitated for a while, and said: "I will come back tomorrow to check the pulse of the concubine."

Just as Zhu Xu was about to say more, Zhang Yun gently pulled Zhu Xu's arm and said, "Your Majesty, the old imperial doctor is also tired, why don't I stay here today, if there is anything, please tell the Emperor immediately."

Zhu Xu frowned tightly, feeling a bad premonition in his heart, but there was really nothing to do at this moment, suppressing his anxiety, he waved his hands and said, "Well, go, everyone else should go back, I and the queen will guard here Just do it."

Although Zhu Xu said so, the eyes of the people present turned to look at Empress Dowager Zhang.

Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Zhu Xu, her expression changed, she waved her hand quietly, and took Xiao Yongning away.

After Li Jieyu, Hai Lanzhu and others saluted, they also quietly withdrew.

Zhu Xu sat in front of the bed with a dignified expression.The old concubine didn't even babble anymore, she was motionless now, if it wasn't for the occasional ups and downs in the quilt, she would be no different from being dead.

Zhang Yun looked at the old concubine with a worried expression, then turned to Zhu Xu and said, "Your majesty, my concubine will stay in the middle of the night, you should sleep for a while."

Zhu Xu shook his head and said, "You go to bed first, I'll be here in the first half of the night."

Zhang Yun pursed his lips and did not refute. He asked someone to prepare a midnight snack and sat down at a table not far away.

Zhu Xu and his wife took turns to look at the old concubine until the next day, when the old imperial doctor came, it took a long time before they said to Zhu Xu: "The pulse of the old concubine has stabilized, and there should be no serious problems in three to five days."
