The area of ​​Lizheng Hall is not large.

In addition to the main hall for collective discussions, there is a small room for handling government affairs for each person, and there is a place for sweeping maids to rest and prepare tea in the latter place, and there is nothing else.

But this does not affect the fact that the world's government orders are based on this, and it does not affect its supreme status in the hearts of civil servants.

Su Yanzhao came in at the right time, and happened to see dozens of people standing unevenly outside the room that originally belonged to Gu Ranzhi. Few of them he knew.

Seeing him coming in, I don't know who took the lead, and there were intermittent greetings.

"How many are here to look for Shen Zhongshu?"

Su Yanzhao glanced at the closed door, Gu Ranzhi's original room was backlit, it was clearly daytime, but the inner room was still lit, and there were a few vaguely visible figures.

Several people looked at each other, and a young official in a red official robe nodded, and said in response, "Going back to Prime Minister Su, I have received a notice from the Ministry of Officials to find Shen Zhongshu to ask for a letter."

According to the system of the Qi Dynasty, the promotion and relegation of officials are all drafted by the Lizhengtang, and then submitted to the prime minister for approval before being approved by Chen Zhu. After a series of procedures, the Ministry of Officials will notify officials whose official positions have changed to pick up letters from the Lizhengtang. You can go to the head of the official department to change the appointment certificate.

Su Yanzhao thought that Shen Ju's actions were so quick, but he still nodded with a smile, and after a few polite words, he turned and walked towards the room he usually used.

After reading the third volume of memorials piled up like a mountain, the two wooden doors creaked, and someone stepped on their boots and went straight inside.

Without even raising his head, Su Yanzhao reviewed his own annotations, picked up the next book, and said casually, "Close the door."

Su Yanlian didn't expect anyone to entertain him at first, so he closed the door as he said, found a seat and sat down on his own, checked the height of the memorial on the table with his eyes, and raised his eyebrows; "Brother is so heavy hold your breath?"

Looking at it with cold eyes these days, Shen Ju Shen Zhongshu next door seems to be the most diligent in politics. He embraces what he should do and what he should not do, and seems to have a very strong interest in succeeding his brother's title of model worker. .

Maybe...he is also very interested in the position of the prime minister.

The memorial in Su Yanzhao's hand was sent by the Ministry of Household Affairs. As usual, it said that the national treasury bank was in a hurry. If this continues, I might not even be able to get the money for the autumn hunting in a few days. Please Lizheng Tang for advice.

He got a headache from reading it, so he simply threw the booklet on the table, then turned to ask Su Yanlian, "Have you read the list of officials he submitted before?"

As he spoke, he took out a half-read piece from another stack of past memorials, and handed it over.

Su Yanlian took it over, flipped through it a few times, and knew that he hadn't read it before, so he shook his head and said, "No, is there any problem?"

He was not very familiar with the Jiaozhou lineage, and all he could see were unfamiliar names, whether promoted or mediocre, and the places to go were considered good.

Su Yanzhao paused, and took back the memorial that had been thrown away, rubbed it for a while, and then gently put it aside, looking out the window at the place he just passed by.

"If the loot is not evenly distributed, there will be disputes."

In terms of rewards for meritorious deeds, the generals under Xie Xuan's command have already been awarded a wave of rewards for those who were knighted, and those who should be promoted.Only the civil servants in Jiaozhou used to have meritorious service, and there are more than a large number of people who want to raise all boats when the tide rises.

When Shen Ju proposed to draw up the list, he didn't stop him, wanting to see what he could come up with, and the result was as expected as expected.

"I'm looking at the Jiaozhou faction enjoying themselves." Su Yan pouted and retorted casually.

Now that his elder brother is watching Shen Ju's movements, he has nothing to worry about, the sky will not fall.

As if to confirm the previous sentence that "disputes must arise", near noon, there was a clear and clear sound of heavy objects falling to the ground in the always quiet Lizheng Hall, accompanied by a full-bodied roar: "Shen Ju, you are a bully!" Too much!"

Su Yanzhao's fingers turning over the pages of the book paused, and Su Yan, who had been lazily leaning on the soft bed, sat up straight, erected her ears, and couldn't restrain her eyes from drifting towards the half-open window.

From a long distance away, a familiar voice continued to come into my ears.

"What is Jiaqi Gong, the capital of Yunzhou, and the rank of fifth rank? Shen Zhongshu is getting more and more good at planning. Ming Sheng Shijiang played this move hard enough and fast enough that he didn't even give him time to react. "The unfriendly tone, mixed with obvious sarcasm, became more and more clear and audible along with the whispers of other people in the Lizheng Hall.

As if he had never faced such a situation before, Shen Ju was stunned, and it took him a long time to say a rebuttal.

"Lord Tao, the roster of officials' promotion was drafted well by me, but this roster was implemented after both Prime Minister Su and His Majesty reviewed it and approved it. You are so angry...why are you posting it only to me?"

Su Yanzhao, who was hit by an arrow in the knee, was a little dumbfounded when he received his younger brother's eyes.

But after being reminded by Shen Ju, he finally remembered who the person who spoke just now was.

He was ordered by Xie Xuan to persuade his old friend...Tao Yi.

It turns out that these two are at odds with each other?

The voices of dispute continued.

"Tsk tsk."

"Where would Prime Minister Su care about the promotion of officials in Jiaozhou? The list was issued without Zhu Zhu, so it can be seen that His Majesty has not moved a word. Could it be that the news of the ministers has been blocked, and now this court has become the world of Shen Zhongshu alone? Can officials be promoted or relegated with one word?"

Hua Tou was developing in an unpredictable direction, and it was vaguely heard that someone finally came out to persuade them to fight, and after a lot of noise, they finally calmed down.

Su Yan leaned her elbows against the window, watching Tao Yi being persuaded and dragged away, with a smile on her face.

Things in the palace have always spread the fastest, let alone such a situation that many people have witnessed with their own eyes.

It was around noon that Tao Yi was pulled out of the Lizheng Hall, and when he came back from lunch, word spread that Yong'an Palace said that Tao Yi's appointment letter would not be issued, and it will be dealt with in the future.

In addition to delivering the message, the servant who came to pass the message also invited Prime Minister Su to Yong'an Palace to discuss government affairs on behalf of his majesty.

Su Yanzhao, who was interrupted by various things all day and failed to approve several memorials;...

Compared with the mountains of memorials piled up in Su Yanzhao's room and the crowds in front of Shen's house, Xie Xuan seems to be extraordinarily leisurely.

When Su Yanzhao came in, he happened to meet Gu Ranzhi, who was dressed in ordinary clothes, coming out of Yong'an Palace, and was surprised to see him just nodding his head coldly before walking away.

After Gu Ranzhi resigned as Zhongshu's servant, he only had the false title of Taifu left on him. He and Xie Xuan had no friendship in the past, so how could he come to the palace again?

Before he could think about it, he saw the back of Xie Xuan sitting on the soft bed, and saluted: "Your Majesty."

Hearing his voice, Xie Xuan hurriedly looked away from the scroll on the desk, and said with a smile, "Jing Zhi is here, sit down quickly."

Su Yanzhao took his seat according to his words, looked at the scroll that Xie Qi was staring at before, saw that it was a miscellaneous book of chats, and said, "It turns out that His Majesty is interested in these, no wonder, Taifu Gu has always read a lot."

Knowing that Gu Ranzhi did not get along with the person in front of him in the past, Xie Xuan curled the corners of his lips, avoiding talking about it, and instead talked about today's events; "Jingzhi thinks, how should the matter between Shen Zhongshu and Tao Yi be handled properly?"

As if he was afraid that he would evade it again, Xie Xuan hastily added: "Shen Zhongshu used to be as famous as Jing Zhi, and he was also from Jinling. Whether he is familiar with him or not, people have always seen each other. Tao Yi also dealt with Jing Zhi , but it can’t be said that I’m not familiar with everyone in Jiaozhou, so I can’t talk about it.”

Su Yanzhao didn't expect that Xie Xuan would ask him for his opinion on this matter, so he pondered for a while before saying, "Tao Yi used to be a sixth-rank official, and he was considered a real official in Jiaozhou. Yunzhou is far more desolate than Jiaozhou. For a real job, there is indeed a suspicion of being promoted secretly. But now that Shen Zhongshu has been promoted to the Minister of Zhongshu, not everyone can go to the Lizheng Hall to make a noise, and there must be a precedent, otherwise there will be endless disasters."

"Hmm..." Xie Xuan responded, bowed his head and thought for a moment.

The unexpectedly pertinent answer really surprised him.

He originally thought that Su Yanzhao must be dissatisfied with Shen Ju's frequent actions recently, so he has prepared lines of persuasion.

Subconsciously, he continued following the words he had prepared.

"Shen Zhongshu is a man who is proud of his talent and loves to use some methods, but he still has some ability. Yesterday he wrote a book saying that in order to understand the plight of the empty treasury, he thought of a way to reform the law and enrich the country."

Su Yanzhao, who was originally holding a teacup and scrutinizing Xie Xuan's facial expressions without any trace, suddenly froze.
