Chapter 774 Changes in the court situation
Ji Wen said that he could fight for it, but Chu Xian knew that he could indeed fight for it, but in fact, the possibility of becoming a leader is not very high.

After all, I have been in the position of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Finance, and it has only been a little more than three years. I have to jump two ranks to be promoted in such a short period of time. This has never happened since the founding of the Holy Dynasty. What's more, my own Seniority, it's hard to convince others, after all, it's Shang Shuling.

So after being excited, Chu Xian immediately returned to calm. Now he doesn't think so much, he just does what he should do, and he will soon take two wives and concubines. big event.

In the past few days, there have been some rumors about Li Yuanming's resignation among some senior officials of the Holy Dynasty. Although no one dared to discuss it publicly, there were many similar things behind the scenes.

It is conceivable that this incident is first of all a shocking thing. Li Yuanming is the official second-rank Shangshuling. According to normal circumstances, Li Yuanming can stay in the position of Shangshuling for at least 50 years or even longer. But now that he resigned early and returned to his hometown, it suddenly disrupted the current political balance.

You must know that the vacated seat is at the level of the Shoufu Pavilion, and it is still a minister. This seat is extremely important, and if it is vacant, someone must fill it.

Obviously, in the current Shoufu Pavilion, as long as they are qualified, they are all staring at this big piece of fat. There are obviously several people who are qualified to take the position. After knowing this, it is obvious that they are thinking about that. impossible.

Even those who lack qualifications are all thinking at the moment, to see if it is possible to soar into the sky.

In fact, everyone knows that although this is only a position of Shangshuling, such a seat will have a considerable follow-up impact. Even if the Shangshuling cannot be obtained, the person who succeeds Shangshuling will leave After the appointment, the original seat will be vacated, and someone below will fill it up, and the person who fills up will also have a seat vacant, so don't look at it as just one person changing, it will bring about all aspects, maybe many people You can gain an advantage in this matter, and your seat will be raised.

So in the past few days, officialdom in Jingzhou has been busy.

As for why Li Yuanming didn't do a good Shangshu Ling, few people dare to explore it, as long as they are not fools, they all know that there must be articles in this matter.

It can be seen that after Li Yuanming gradually ignored things during this period, he could already see some clues, and the well-informed people gradually figured out some reasons in the next period of time.

Over the years, Li Yuanming has done a lot of absurd things. Of course, for a senior official like him, these small things are not enough to be targeted, and even become a sharp weapon to bring him down.

The key point is that Li Yuanming used some means to hinder the progress of the land reform three years ago. This is the key point. Anyone who understands it knows that this land reform is very important for the entire pilgrimage. It even determines the prosperity and decline of the Holy Dynasty in the future.

If it is an ordinary official, it is understandable that he does not have this kind of awareness, but Li Yuanming, knowing the priority of this matter, is still doing it for his own selfishness, and for his little bit of face. Play tricks on matters of great right and wrong, and make troubles.

Obviously, this is the main reason why he had to step down.

Although everyone is just speculating, but what is certain is that at least Grand Master Xiao Yu must have conclusive evidence. It was even heard that not long ago, Grand Master Xiao Yu specially summoned Li Yuanming, and the two of them spied on for a long time , it is estimated that there was a showdown at that time.

What they talked about, except for the two parties, no one knows, but obviously, after that conversation, Li Yuanming gradually faded out of the power center, and his whole person became quite decadent.

Therefore, some people said that Grand Master Xiao Yu asked Li Yuanming to step down with dignity, this guess is still tenable.

With the passage of time, Li Yuanming did not appear at the subsequent Shoufu Pavilion meeting, and he did not even attend the court meeting. Moreover, during this period, many of Li Yuanming's subordinates were also transferred or demoted. People with a discerning eye It can be seen that this is gradually becoming clear about Li Yuanming's "partners" and direct descendants, which also shows from the side that Li Yuanming has indeed made a big mistake, otherwise he would not have been driven to death like this.

At the same time, many officials were in awe of Grand Master Xiao Yu's method of killing people without blood. A majestic Shangshu Ling was knocked down so silently, even without any resistance.

So, the first seat is still the first seat.

As for whether Li Yuanming just accepted his fate obediently like this, no one knows. Maybe Li Yuanming resisted, and even thought about a more crazy counterattack, but there is no doubt that judging from the results, they all failed in the end.

Li Yuanming's loss of power was already doomed, and the official circles in Jingzhou were also in turmoil. They were all doing their own activities, and they all wanted to gain their own benefits in this power struggle among the upper echelons.

In a blink of an eye, the day of Chu Xian's concubine arrived.

During this period of time, there were many rumors that Chu Xian had heard, and many officials from his own department came to visit him. Of course, Chu Xian knew what they were thinking.

They hoped that they could stand up and participate in the competition for the position of Shang Shuling. Although Chu Xian was still not comparable to other competitors in terms of qualifications and age, Chu Xian also had Chu Xian's advantages.

His ability, his achievements, especially the implementation of land reform in the past three years, completely eliminated the inherent landlord and hegemony class, and he used a nearly perfect method, which is equivalent to recuperating the body of the entire holy pilgrimage. , Eradicate the stubborn diseases that have accumulated for thousands of years.

No one can match this credit.

As far as Chu Xian's prestige and prestige are concerned, there is no one who can surpass him in the entire Holy Dynasty.

So in the eyes of some people, strengths can make up for weaknesses, and Chu Xian can always create miracles, so this time it should still be possible, especially for the officials who belonged to Chu Xian these years, or who were single-handedly promoted by Chu Xian. This matter is quite caring.The willingness is very simple. Although Chu Xian did not admit it, in fact, the voice of Chu Xian's "Chu family" faction has already been heard in Jingzhou. This is a fact, and this matter is not uncommon in the officialdom. The so-called factions and parties are different, but people tend to cluster together. No matter how you prohibit it, it is impossible to completely prohibit it. As long as it is not separated, it is generally turned a blind eye from top to bottom.

Even when Xiao Yu was still Zhongshu Ling, wasn't Chu Xian listed as the leader of the Xiao family?

In the eyes of these officials of the Chu family, for them, Chu Xian's ascension to the position has only advantages and no disadvantages, and it is not only because of self-interest, but in their view, if Chu Xian serves as the minister, it will be beneficial to the entire sage dynasty Good thing, let's talk about the household department. Since Chu Xian became Zuo Shilang, anyone who is not blind can see the changes in the household department.In stark contrast, Liu Jiwen, the servant on the right, has almost been deprived of all the light and glory by Chu Xian in the past three years, and even the entire household department only listens to Chu's words and ignores Liu Yu. This is also the consensus of many officials.

Of course, Liu Jiwen didn't dare to confront Chu Xian tit for tat. Being an official would almost stop there, or it would be meaningless.

It is because of the great momentum these years that the officials of the Chu family want to push Chu Xian to the top.

It's just that Chu Xian didn't actually respond to these calls from the officials below. Even if he did, he expressed that he didn't want to fight for the Minister's order.

After all, Chu Xian has not been serving as the left servant of the household department for a long time, and it is not easy for him to break the rules.

The officials under him didn't dare to say any more. After all, Master Chu's big day was about to come to an end. In the Holy Dynasty, it was nothing at all for officials to accept concubines. Some officials even took as much as they wanted. Wives and concubines are proud.

Nowadays, many officials, apart from the necessary regular wives, who don't have three or five concubines?

This is considered rare. It is said that an official of the fifth grade has married a total of eleven concubines in 30 years. In this regard, the Holy Dynasty did not restrain the officials. Of course, there are a few who are consistent. But this is very little.

Chu Xian married Li Ziwan as his first wife. After all these years, he only needed to take in two more concubines.

Naturally, Chu Xian didn't want to make a big fuss about this matter, so for some officials with ordinary relations, Chu Xian politely declined.

Now that Chu Xian is in this position, he is not afraid of offending the officials below, especially Chu Xian. When he first stepped into the officialdom, he has never been afraid of anyone. Didn't he even hate Yang Zhenqing back then?

Even so, after the statistics of the following people, there are quite a lot of guests who will come that day, and some Chu Xian really have no way to refuse.

As for Cui Huanzhi, can Chu Xian not let him come?
There is also Kong Qian, it is impossible for Chu Xian to refuse.

There are also Chu Xian's friends, such as Shen Ziyi, Zhao Yanzhen, Qin Huhu, Run Liangchen, these have come here a day in advance.

Of course, Chu Xian did not participate in these troublesome matters, and left it to Li Ziwan to take care of them. Chu Xian still spent most of his time on the affairs of the household department.

As for these official duties of the Ministry of Accounting, Chu Xian is quite handy now. A few days ago, the Minister of the Ministry of Accounting came to find Chu Xian to find out what Chu Xian said.

Chu Xian could tell that Hubu Shangshu obviously had plans for the current position of Shang Shuling, but for some reason, he ran to the side and tapped to see if Chu Xian wanted to fight for it.

This is very intriguing. You must know that according to the sequence of official positions, it is logical for the Hubu Shangshu to take over Li Yuanming's position. In fact, he is the most likely. There, of course, several other Shangshu are also possible, but relatively speaking, they are not as good as Hubu Shangshu.
