Manchu traitor, how can you let me be the emperor of the ages

Chapter 179 Also invite Cai Pu to unite the six parts!Take the lead!

Facing the expectant and eager eyes of these two people, Qin Hui smiled lightly and said, "Of course it is true!"

"Qin Xiang still has time to make fun of you?" Wang Ciweng glanced at Wan Qixie, and there was a hint of education in his tone.

After receiving such a glance from him, Wan Qixi lowered his head with a dry laugh, but at this juncture, he suddenly remembered the matter of the deputy examiner.

The deputy examiner of the general examination has always been one person, and there is absolutely no reason for two people to take it together.

Wan Tuxi squinted his eyes slightly, pretending to casually glance at Wang Ciweng, but he didn't expect Wang Ciweng to look over just in time.

The two looked at each other, and then both turned their heads, the meaning was self-evident.

Of course, Qin Hui noticed the small movements of the two of them, and he took a sip of his tea: "However, it's not that easy to get this job."

"Although His Majesty has agreed, there are still six more."

"The deputy examiner was originally an errand for the six ministers, but now we have been snatched by the Ministry of Education, and he may not be willing to agree."

When Wang Ciweng and Wanqi heard the words, the small thoughts that had just arisen in their hearts were extinguished immediately.

This errand can't be said to be sure, and it's too early to engage in internal strife.

Qin Hui has been paying attention to the movements of the two of them, and now he continued: "So, I ask Your Majesty to put the four ministers from Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province into the selection of deputy examiners."

"You are both servants, why can the servants of the Sixth Department of Shangshu be elected as deputy examiners, but you can't?"

Wang Ciweng and Wan Qixi were startled when they heard the words, and the latter asked tentatively: "Mr. Qin, when the sixteen candidates are selected..."

Qin Hui smiled: "Your Majesty has already said that he will lean towards the two of you. Whichever of you has a greater chance and who is supported more, he will support whoever."

Wang Ciweng's eyes lit up, and Wan Qixie couldn't help but nodded.

Seeing the two of them like this, the smile on Qin Hui's face gradually faded, and he said coldly: "It's just that Cai Jing is the chief examiner of this exam, don't you forget him?"

Wan Qixi was startled: "Qin Xiang, could it be that you asked the lower officials to ask Cai Jing for help?"

Qin Hui's face froze slightly: "That's not the case. I just want to remind you not to get too involved with Cai Jing."

"Even if you are selected as the deputy examiner in the end, you have to fight against Cai Jing, and you can't join him in the exam."

Wang Ciweng nodded immediately: "President Qin, I understand."

He said loudly: "Cai Jingzhi's actions are despised by many people in the court. Now if the subordinate official becomes the deputy examiner, he will definitely not let him corrupt the law in the general examination and destroy the court's grand ceremony of using talents."

Wan Tuxi was a little too late to react, but he cupped his hands firmly and said, "Mr. Qin, the lower officials will definitely not join forces with Cai Jing."

When you think about it, you will know why the good emperor made such a move?He must be dissatisfied with Cai Jing.

If the elected official still communicated with him secretly, then what's the point of his tossing about it?
Both of them understood that before they became assistant examiners, they definitely couldn't show their intention to get too close to Cai Jing.

Besides, even if there was no such trouble, the two also knew that the relationship between their boss and Cai Jing was not good, and the two sides had touched each other some time ago, so naturally they would not have the idea of ​​hooking up with Cai Jing at this moment.

As for offending him, will there be any trouble when grading the examination papers...

The offense has already been offended, and the two sides have not only clashed once.

Under the temptation of half of the disciples, Cai Jing's tricks and troubles are nothing...

Seeing the reaction of the two of them, Qin Hui nodded lightly: "Okay, let's make preparations quickly, and then pass the news on for me."

"Yes, Prime Minister Qin." Wang Ciweng and Wan Qixie clasped their hands at the same time, and slowly exited the room.

After the two left, Qin Hui sent the news to Menxia Province and the Sixth Department through Zhongshu Province, which immediately caused an uproar in the two places.

Surprisingly, the two servants of Menxia Province were the most dissatisfied with the servants of Liubu.

"You said yes, why did Qin Hui come here suddenly?"

In the duty room, Deng Xunwu and Gao Xun, two servants of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, were frowning at a piece of plain bamboo paper on the table, on which was written a document sent by the Ministry of Education.

"It can't be fake, can it?"

Deng Xunwu has already begun to question the authenticity of this matter, he frowned and said: "No matter what, it is the news sent by the Ministry of Education, and it is said that it has spread all over the province and the six departments."

"There is a big seal of the Ministry of Education on it, how can it be fake? And it is so widely spread now, even if it is fake, it has to become real."

Gao Xun frowned tightly, his face was very ugly: "Once this is the first example, when we try to select deputy examiners in the future, wouldn't we have to bring Zhongshu and the four servants under the door?"

No one would naively think that if Zhongshu Shilang and Menxia Shilang ran for the election this time, they would obediently withdraw next time.

Next time, they will definitely climb up along the way.

I participated last time, why quit this time?
Therefore, for the servants of the sixth department, what they are defending is not only this time's quota, but also countless times in the future, so they can't open this hole!

Deng Xunwu sighed quietly: "There is still Master Cai's plan, is it going to fail this time?"

After what he said, Gao Xun suddenly came back to his senses: "Yes, there is Master Cai's plan!"

He picked up the document and put it into his arms, stood up hastily, and hurriedly walked out the door: "Hurry up, let's go to Cai's mansion."

Deng Xunwu shook his head and sighed, and followed behind him.

The two of them left the duty room and hurried downstairs, but just as they got down the stairs, a man in a blue official robe walked up to him with a calm demeanor.

The three of them pretended to be facing each other, they were all startled.

"Master Department Hall." The man on the opposite side saluted without being humble or overbearing.

"It turned out to be Mr. Yuandu." Gao Xun returned the gift with a dry smile: "Sir, we still have something to do, so we won't accompany you any longer."

Deng Xunwu also nodded, and the two left.

The one who bumped into Deng Xunwu and Gao Xun was Cai Bian, the doctor of the Ministry of Punishments.

Looking at the backs of the two servants leaving in a hurry, he frowned slightly...

Deng Xunwu and Gao Xun walked out of the Yamen of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. There were few pedestrians on the huge street, only occasionally a few eunuchs and officials wrapped in cotton robes under their official uniforms hurried past.The two walked all the way to the south of the imperial city against the slightly cold wind, went out from the Hanguang gate, got on a sedan chair, and went straight to Cai's mansion.

The capital city in winter is obviously not as lively as in summer. In summer, everyone is forced to stay at home by the heat. In winter, the cold wind forces people to stay at home obediently.

The bare trees on both sides of the road stretched out their branches and swayed in the cold wind.

Cai House.

The study uses the same ground dragon and flue as the palace for heating. Even without charcoal fire, it is as warm as spring.

The "Tiger Touring Mountain Stone" in the center of the study exudes a strong heat, and faintly reveals a faint red light, which is also the most peculiar part of this stone.

Cai Jing frowned tightly, staring at a document, which was the message that Zhongshu Sheng sent to Menxia and the Sixth Ministry, saying that the four servants from Zhongshu and Menxia Sheng would be added to the candidates for the deputy examiner.

After reading it for a long time, Cai Jing let out a breath of irritability, and slapped the document on the table.

There have been too many troubles in recent days, since the little emperor came to the throne, they have come one after another.

Even arranging a general examination examiner can have an accident, so this year, everything is not going well? ?
The irritability in Cai Jing's heart was very strong, but because Han Mulu was still in the study, he didn't break out.

Han Mulu, the right servant of the household department, also had a sad expression on his face: "Lord Cai, have you read the news?"

"I've seen it." Cai Jing muffled.

"If this is the case, there must be many twists and turns out of thin air." Han Mulu said helplessly: "And Qin Hui did this for no reason, I'm afraid there will be backhands."

Cai Jing frowned, but before he could speak, there was a rush of footsteps outside.

"Lord Cai, have you read the news?"

Song Qiaonian, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, waved a document and hurried into the study.

"He has seen it." Han Mulu reminded from the side.

"I'll read it to you!" Song Qiaonian couldn't hide the anxiety on his face, he unfolded the document in front of him and was about to read it.

"We've seen it." Cai Jing and Han Mulu couldn't help reminding.

It's just that Song Qiaonian has already entered the mood: "As usual, the Xinweike Examination will be held in March next year, and the candidate for the deputy examiner..."

The flesh on Cai Jing's face twitched, and he took a deep breath, but still remained silent, allowing Song Qiaonian to finish reading the document.

"Lord Cai, what should we do now?"

Song Qiaonian couldn't help but said: "It is said that they are participating in the selection, but once the four servants are allowed in, Qin Hui and the others will definitely have another move. The position of deputy examiner may belong to Zhongshu's servant."

Han Mulu was helpless: "Master Cai said he had read it, why do you want to read it again?"

"I……"

Song Qiaonian's eyes widened, and he explained stutteringly, "This...is such an important matter, so I have to say it again..."

"okay."

Cai Jing sighed, turned his head away in boredom, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and waved his hands: "Don't worry about these things..."

But at this moment, there was another rush of footsteps at the door of the study.

Deng Xunwu and Gao Xun rushed in, bringing in a howling cold wind, which made Cai Jing shiver.

Especially the latter was waving a document in his hand, and said loudly: "Master Cai, Mr. Cai, have you read the news?"

Cai Jing slammed the table and stood up, unable to hold back the irritability in his heart, he said angrily, "I've seen it!"

"I've seen it! The immortals have seen it! Lu Cai has seen it! We have all seen it! Isn't the old man detailed enough?!"

Gao Xun held the document, his face was stiff, and he couldn't help it for a while: "Details..."

Even Deng Xunwu quietly moved half a step to the side, away from him.

Another gust of cold wind came in from the open door and blew on Cai Jing's face, restoring some of his sanity.

Cai Jing looked at Gao Xun at the door, and sighed softly: "I'm sorry, Dingchen, the old man lost his composure just now."

He slowly sat back on the chair, beckoned and said, "Come in and sit."

"Yes, my lord." Gao Xun walked in uncomfortably, and Deng Xunwu helped him close the door behind him.

Cai Jing looked at the paperwork on the desk, and sighed softly: "As the examination is approaching, that thief Qin Hui suddenly came again, which made it hard for me to see his last move."

"He must be for those Jinshi students."

Song Qiaonian couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty has just ascended the throne this year, and the first subject test is inherently risky. Now that he wants to get a piece of the pie, aren't we more passive?"

Cai Jing's face was serious: "The problem lies with Your Majesty. Your Majesty is not stupid, how could he agree to Qin Hui's request for nothing?"

"Qin Hui goes to see him every three days, the two of them may have hooked up long ago."

Song Qiaonian continued: "Either His Majesty was fascinated by Qin Hui, or Qin Hui promised His Majesty some benefits..."

"Then should we also promise some benefits to His Majesty?" Han Mulu couldn't help but asked.

"What's the benefit?"

Cai Jing glanced at him coldly: "What good can His Majesty think of you? How many Jinshi will you promise him in the examination?"

As soon as these words came out, several people present laughed dryly.

How could His Majesty the Emperor care about a few Jinshi?For him, Jinshi all over the world may be the same, and they are all officials for him anyway.

Who else does he care about?

Han Mulu also gave a dry laugh, hiding his embarrassment.

"Since this method doesn't work, let's think about other things. In short, we can't make this happen."

Cai Jing nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said: "No matter what, this matter is related to the Six Books of Shangshu."

"Now it's not just you who are unwilling, presumably the servants of the other films are also unwilling."

Deng Xunwu and the others nodded at the same time, this is true.

Cai Jing thought for a moment: "Try to return this document to the Ministry of Education, and if it doesn't work, then think of a way to choose a candidate."

Several people sighed lightly, but they knew they had to.

In the administrative system of the Dagan court, Zhongshu Province was responsible for drafting edicts, Menxia Province was responsible for review, and Shangshu Province was responsible for execution.

That is to say, their Shangshu Province is just following orders, and they don't have much ability to resist the two upstream yamen.

Now that the edict of the Ministry of Education came down, they could only struggle a little bit.

Cai Jing said that he was trying to return the paperwork, but he was only trying to comfort a few people. He mainly wanted to wrestle with the other party in terms of candidates.

If you are willing to stuff these four, you can stuff them in. Whether you can be selected is another matter.

Being nominated and being selected are two different things!

"Yes, my lord." Several people cheered up at the same time and responded.

This matter is too involved, and there are too many interests involved, they will never give up, or in other words, the Six Books of Shangshu will never give up.

Han Mulu looked at Cai Jing with a smile: "Lord Cai, the six departments are now scattered and fighting on their own, so Qin Hui may seize the opportunity and defeat each of them."

"In this situation, only you are highly respected and convinced by everyone, and only you can carry the banner of the Six Departments of Shangshu. Through this matter, let the Six Departments unite with you and resist Qin Hui's sneaky behavior. .”

Cai Jing was obviously taken aback, and looked at Han Mulu with a hint of surprise...and surprise.

Seeing this scene, Song Qiaonian hurriedly cupped his hands and said loudly, "Lord Cai, please stand up and preside over the overall situation!"

Deng Xunwu and Gao Xun didn't react too slowly, they hurriedly clapped their hands together to keep up: "I also invite Master Cai to come out and preside over the overall situation!"

Cai Jing laughed and stroked his beard, feeling that his bad mood has improved a lot.

"It seems that this is what everyone expects!"

"In this case, let's do this, let's move to the imperial city!"
