Please, let me be a fool

Chapter 26 I Need Such Talents
In the imperial study room, Wei Yunyi was sitting on the dragon chair.

On the opposite side was Zhang Zhengming with a serious face and a tall and straight body.

"Aiqing, what's the matter, you want to report to me alone."

In fact, Wei Yunyi knew what was going on from the moment the other party asked to see him, but he still asked knowingly.

Zhang Zhengming took a deep breath, and immediately said: "Although Li Fang is not very capable, he is more stable. Your Majesty, I think it is a bit arbitrary to allow him to retire and return home."

Li Fang, the number one scholar in the former dynasty and the second in the cabinet, has accumulated great prestige over the years.

Even the first emperor said that he was a good minister who was sensible.

But now, his ability to be evaluated is not very good.

Only two words are stable.

Be a normal person.

Wei Yunyi would definitely scoff, thinking that this was too crazy.

But Zhang Zhengming in front of him is indeed qualified to make such an evaluation.

Of course, now is not the time to talk about this, Wei Yunyi straightened his body, and then said: "I know what Ai Qing said is true, but the matter of resignation was proposed by him on his own initiative, and he is an old minister. What should I do? I am also very helpless, so I have no choice but to agree."

With a person like Zhang Zhengming, if you talk about the truth and the overall situation, you must not be able to talk about it, so you can only start from other directions.

It happened that Li Fang wanted to resign himself, so this excuse must have left the other party with nothing to say.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Zhang Zhengming frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.

Because in his eyes, it doesn't matter whether Li Fang is in the cabinet or not.

And he doesn't like this person very much.

Speak now.

Just to stabilize the situation.

However, since His Majesty has said so.

Zhang Zhengming didn't want to insist anymore, but said: "Your Majesty should be arbitrary about Li Fang's matter, but His Majesty still has to consider who to replace him."

"Song Gongwen's ability is too mediocre. The cabinet is the center of the court. It is a bit bad for him to be a bachelor."

In fact, it is rare for someone as strong and upright as Zhang Zhengming to be able to speak so calmly.

Because he kept in mind that he was a courtier, even if he felt dissatisfied, he would not overstep.

This is also one of the main reasons why he can be called a famous minister in the world.

Even my bright light in the sea of ​​suffering says Song Gongwen is not good?

Very good!
It seems that promoting the father-in-law will definitely destroy the luck of the Great Wei!

"Ai Qing's words are wrong."

Immediately, Wei Yunyi opened his mouth and replied: "Song Gongwen is also talented, otherwise he would not be able to enter the top three Jinshi. For many years, he has been staying in Dali Temple, dealing with some trivial cases. Has Ai Qing ever thought about it? This kind of thing is actually not suitable for Song Gongwen? Maybe it would be better for him to change his position?"

"Maybe Aiqing, if you get in touch more in the future, you will be able to discover Song Gongwen's unknown strengths?"

This is equivalent to retelling the conversation between him and Zhao Lingying, but the statement is much more euphemistic than before.

"But you can't just let him join the cabinet, can you?" Zhang Zhengming hesitated for a while, but still said.

"Upgraded to seven levels in a row, the court has a lot of opinions, I'm afraid it will shake the court."

This is what I want now.

Wei Yunyi thought to himself.

There are still a few days until settlement day.

If you don't shake the court, I won't agree.

However, he still said on the surface: "I know everything, so let him do it first, and if there are problems later, how about I make plans?"

If Song Gongwen really didn't do a good job, Wei Yunyi would naturally refuse to replace him. If he wanted to ruin the country's destiny, he needed such talents.

This move was only intended to temporarily stabilize Zhang Zhengming, otherwise it would be endless.

As long as the matter is confirmed at that time, whether to change or not is not a matter of his words?
"That's fine."

Who is Zhang Zhengming?

It is natural to hear that Wei Yunyi has made up his mind.

And he is just a courtier, in general matters, he still gives priority to suggestions.

After all, Song Gongwen is just not very capable, and he is not a traitor. Anyway, the cabinet still has its own direction.

"Okay, Aiqing." Wei Yunyi stood up and said with a smile, "Sometimes you have to pay attention to your body. For some small things, just write notes."

There was some concern in this sentence, after all, Wei Yunyi still respected a famous official like Zhang Zhengming in his heart.

Especially thinking that I will have to fight against this person in the future, I feel even more sorry.

If you can treat him better, try to be as good as possible.

And this time.

Zhang Zhengming, who heard the words of concern, looked slightly stunned, then bowed quickly, and said solemnly: "My minister knows, thank you for your concern."

After finishing speaking, he backed away slowly until he completely left the imperial study room.

As the chief assistant, he still has a lot of things to deal with.

Wei Yunyi was completely relieved.

Convinced Zhang Zhengming.

Then those officials must have nothing to say.

Immediately, he turned his gaze to where the cabinet was located.

Father-in-law, you have to work hard.

Don't let me down.

Shaking his head slightly.

Wei Yunyi turned around and left the imperial study room, thinking that he would be able to settle his luck in a few days.

His footsteps were lighter than before.

The location of the cabinet office.

Wenhua Hall is located in the southeast corner of the imperial city.

Although cabinet members have been limited to five people.

But no, there are only this number of officials in the cabinet.

In addition to the bachelors, there are also dozens of bachelors in charge. The duties of these people are to cooperate with the bachelors, organize various documents and files, and send and receive memorials.

Although the rank is not high, but because they are all Jinshi backgrounds, and as long as they leave the cabinet, they can almost always get real power.

Therefore, the Bachelor of Handwriting and the Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy are collectively referred to as Qinggui, and they all have a bright future.

And today is the first time for the new deputy, Song Gongwen, to come to the cabinet.

Although spring has begun at this time, the capital is still very cold.

The sky is also gray.

It seems that there are signs of snow these days.

Song Gongwen wrapped himself in a black cloak and walked to the Wenhua Hall.

He has been an official for many years, but it was the first time he came here, so he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Trying to calm his mind, Song Gongwen lifted his foot and walked in, feeling a wave of heat coming.

In the conservatory of Wenhua Hall, a hot kang has already been burned at this moment.

There are several stoves in the middle.

Makes the whole room very warm.

Song Gongwen turned his head and glanced around, and saw that the greenhouse was in the north, and there were five positions.

Don't think about it, this belongs to the five great scholars, the middle one represents the chief minister of the cabinet.

It's just that he found that these five positions were all empty and there was no one there.

But this is a very normal thing.

After all, a bachelor has a lot of things to do, and he won't stay in the Wenhua Palace all the time.

However, there are quite a few of those bachelors in charge.

Song Gongwen coughed lightly.

express his arrival.

But soon, his face changed slightly.

Because Song Gongwen discovered that those bachelors in charge of calligraphy just took a look at him, and then went to work on their own, and didn't mean to be polite.

Some people didn't even lift their heads, and concentrated on looking at the documents and files in their hands.

It seems that he is completely transparent.
Involuntarily, Song Gongwen's face was gloomy.

He was very clear.

I'm afraid it's not easy to be the second assistant of the cabinet——
