Zhumen Hangui

Chapter 485
Meng Lingxi pursed her lips, "Actually, it's not difficult to guess, this should be Su Yizhao's handwriting, only he likes to take the edge of the sword."

"This kid from the Su family is really powerful. Don't look at him smiling when he sees people, he is actually a smiling tiger, and the intestines in his stomach are probably nine bends and eighteen bends. I didn't expect Su Jinxun to get a A chance to turn around."

E Chongming was very emotional, who should have such a monstrous villain, he should be very happy, right?
Meng Lingxi glanced at E Chongming, and then asked: "You just said that Mr. Liu could not agree to him, what do you mean?"

"It's just a fifth-rank official position, and it's actually not that important. But now there are three factions in the court, and the third prince has been at a disadvantage in the past two years, and urgently needs to install his own people in the court."

E Chongming looked at the chess game in front of him, the whole chessboard was complicated and confusing, and it was not yet clear.

"But you said that Mr. Su went to find Mr. Liu. Does Mr. Liu think that the Su family has the intention of surrendering? After weighing the pros and cons, maybe he will really choose the Su family?"

Meng Lingxi had to admit that compared to Su Yizhao, other people were naturally not that important.

E Chongming looked at his lover with admiration, and Xi'er has grown more and more in the past two years.

"Perhaps Liu Shuyun would really have given this position to win over the Su family before, but he had promised this position long ago."

Meng Lingxi saw his teacher's face with an inscrutable smile, so he asked curiously, "Who did you promise?"

"Chen Li, a household doctor who has been in Ding You's family for three years, is waiting for a vacancy. Do you know this person?"

E Chongming only cared about the chess game in front of him, but Meng Lingxi's mind was no longer on the chess game.

"Chen Li, the students know a little bit about him. He was a doctor in the household department three years ago. I heard that he found out that the account of the military pay at the border was wrong. Therefore, the emperor sent someone to check at the border and cracked the case of embezzlement of military pay at the border."

E Chongming nodded, "That's right! Chen Li came from the Chen family, which was an upstart in the previous dynasty. Later, when the emperor established the dynasty, the Chen family lost its reputation. Chen Li is very capable. Then he was promoted to be a household doctor."

"This person has made great contributions to the case of embezzlement of military pay. He was originally going to be promoted. Unexpectedly, his old father died of a serious illness, so he returned to his ancestral home Ding You. Now three years have passed, and it is time for him to leave the mountain."

Meng Lingxi was a little puzzled. Before that, E Chongming had delivered a message to Mr. Liu, saying that he wanted to help him find a vacancy for a doctor in the household department?
However, it is not easy for him to ask about this matter, otherwise the teacher will definitely think that he is too ambitious and ambitious.

E Chongming has actually seen Meng Lingxi's doubts, he smiled and said, "But why did you recommend you before you become a teacher?"

Meng Lingxi nodded in embarrassment, "Please ask the teacher to clarify."

"Because I want you to take this position because I am a teacher, my disciple must not be left behind. He, Su Yizhao, has Su Jinxun to help plan. My disciple cannot be unknown. As a teacher, I should support you."

E Chongming snorted coldly, but Meng Lingxi hesitated to speak.

In fact, he believed that Su Yizhao's ability to become the prime minister of Dali Temple was due to his own merit.

"But didn't you just say that Chen Li was going back to the court? Master Liu has already promised."

"Liu Shuyun promised, but he may not be able to come! As long as Chen Li doesn't come, then you have a chance."

E Chongming smiled kindly, but Meng Lingxi suddenly felt cold from his feet, trembling a little.

"You! You mean?"

Sensing Meng Lingxi's fear, E Chongming said seriously: "Xi'er, this is the officialdom, the real officialdom. I hope you can adapt as soon as possible. Apart from other things, Su Yizhao has adapted very well."

He pointed at the chessboard with his finger, "This son is ruthless. The rise of him and the Su family has always been based on bones. Every time he makes a move, there will be turmoil in the court, and many aristocratic families will be overthrown overnight."

The shock in Meng Lingxi's heart at this moment cannot be overstated, yes!Why didn't he feel it before?
How many aristocratic families in the capital have been impacted during this period of time?The loss of power of the two princes was all related to him.

"But Mr. Liu may not agree, the student is only a seventh-rank official now."

E Chongming smiled, and he knew it was right to use Su Yizhao to motivate Meng Lingxi.

"What is Qipin afraid of? If you can make a great contribution like Su Yizhao and put pressure on your teacher, Liu Shuyun will have to agree."

Meng Lingxi immediately looked at E Chongming, "Great contribution?"

E Chongming smiled mysteriously, "It has been arranged for the teacher."

"Su Shangshu is a rare visitor. Today's visit to our Liu Mansion is really full of splendor!"

Liu Shuyun gave Su Jinxun a flesh-and-blood smile. Before the third prince wanted to win over the Su family, he hinted to Su Jinxun several times, but Su Jinxun refused to accept it, which made him very angry.

"Oh! Liu Shangshu is too polite. This official came here uninvited. Please don't blame Liu Shangshu."

Liu Shuyun slandered in his heart. In the past, you were invited to come, but you didn't come to avoid suspicion. Today, you came because of your son, and you said I didn't invite you?What a backlash.

"I don't know why Su Shangshu came here?" Liu Shuyun asked straight to the point.

"Oh! It's a bit embarrassing to say this, it's for the third son who doesn't live up to expectations." Su Jinxun sighed as he spoke, with a look of helplessness on his face.

"Oh? Why did Su Shangshu say that?" Liu Shuyun smiled inwardly, but put on a puzzled look on his face.

"I heard that there is a vacancy for the post of Lang Zhong in the Ministry of Household Affairs. This official is here to recommend my son. You don't want to avoid relatives. My son has been in the Imperial Academy for many years. Do you think?"

Liu Shuyun didn't expect Su Jinxun to say it so directly. He came here to ask for an official position, or for his own son. He really admired his shamelessness.

People wanted it, at least they wanted face, so they invited colleagues to recommend him, but Su Jinxun actually came here in person.

Liu Shuyun scolded in his heart, but Su Jinxun is equal to him now, so he should be more polite.

"This?" Liu Shuyun hesitated.

"What? Master Liu has a suitable candidate in mind?" Su Jinxun asked quickly.

"Actually, as early as three days ago, my official gave this vacancy to Chen Li. You also know that Chen Li Dingyou has been in trouble for three years, and he should return to the imperial court to serve. He was originally a doctor in the household department. It's a matter of course for him!"

Liu Shuyun sighed as he spoke, "It's not a coincidence! If you said this before, how could I not be right? Isn't it? It's too late now, and the appointment has been made."

Su Jinxun's eyes widened when he heard that, "Ah? What happened?"

He made some calculations and pondered for a moment, "Oh! Chen Li is indeed Ding You's three-year-old, so there is nothing wrong with reinstatement!"

Liu Shuyun nodded, "Hey! Isn't that true? Su Shangshu might as well wait until there is a suitable vacancy, and I will consider it later. After all, it's not yet the end of the year, and officials can't be transferred!"
