marquis of jingan

Chapter 686
The emperor went to Zhaode Palace to see the eldest son of the emperor, but if he went to Zhaode Palace now, he would probably stay in Zhaode Palace tonight.

After receiving the news of the great victory in Guangzhou, His Majesty the Emperor at this time felt a little more confident, and wished he could immediately promote Concubine Hui as a noble concubine in order to declare his supreme authority to the outside world.

However, His Majesty the Emperor is relatively rational.

He just thought about this idea, but didn't put it into practice.

After two days of hard work, the time came to the fourth day of June. The document Shen Yi wrote to the Ministry of War finally arrived in Jiankang.

This kind of document of victory is also a matter of face for the Ministry of War. Jiang Shangshu of the Ministry of War personally brought this document to Zhongshu. After meeting the prime ministers of Zhongshu, the Minister of Military Affairs was full of joy. The leader Chen Jing cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Chen Xiang, gentlemen, Shen Yi, a doctor of our military department, led his troops to defeat the Japanese pirates in Guangzhou, so far."

His voice was excited: "I am Chen Dongnan, there is no more Japanese troubles to speak of!"

Hearing Jiang Shangshu's words, Chen Xiang and the other prime ministers looked at each other with some amusement in their eyes.

Before this, neither the Ministry of War nor the Imperial Academy were willing to admit that Shen Yi was an official of their yamen, firstly because of jealousy, and secondly because they did not want to have anything to do with Shen Yi, a "lucky minister".

Now, Shen Yi has made great contributions in the southeast, and this minister of the Ministry of War immediately turned Master Shen into a "Military Doctor".

This sentence somewhat shows the taste of sovereignty.

Not to mention that he jumped from the position of Minister of the Ministry of War to the Minister of Zhongshu, even if he can be transferred from the Minister of the Ministry of War to the Ministry of Punishment, it is a good thing for him.

In Ganlu Palace, Prime Minister Chen Jing respectfully handed the documents of the Ministry of War to the emperor. He lowered his head slightly and said in a low voice, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, old minister, congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Chen Jing glanced helplessly at the minister of the Ministry of War who seemed to be a subordinate wholeheartedly in front of him.

And this prime minister, Xie Min, besides being a prime minister, also has a part-time job.

Chen Xiang yawned and said: "Old Jiang, don't be impatient, you'd better go back to the Ministry of War and wait for His Majesty to summon you."

The first knowledge of being an official is flattering.

This is mainly because his authority in Zhongshu is not enough.

Take for example Cui Yu, the last batch of prime ministers who entered the Zhongshu Province today. He and Chen Jing entered the Zhongshu Province in the same batch. After becoming the emperor, he was expelled from the Zhongshu Province by the emperor. Later, when the emperor softened his attitude towards the Guipai, he was transferred back to the Zhongshu Fuxiang.

Since the opponent cannot be killed by time, the only way to get the top position and get the position of the leader is to find a way to overthrow the opponent or kill the opponent.

Chen Xiang took the document from Jiang Jian, read it once, and then passed the document to several other prime ministers in Zhongshu, then he looked up at Jiang Shangshu, smiled and said: "This time, the Coastal Metropolitan Division has defeated the Japanese pirates. It is a rare happy event, but the chief officer of the coastal capital is not Shen Langzhong of the Ministry of War, Jiang Shangshu can't attribute this great achievement to Shen Langzhong?"

"It turns out that the southeast is settled."

Even the leader, Chen Jing, is not the oldest.

It's not that his personal ability is not good, but that his qualifications and background are insufficient.

After the minister of the Ministry of War left, Chen Jing glanced at the other prime ministers in Zhongshu, and said with a smile: "For a little credit, I fought with me in the face. Gentlemen, deal with it for me."

His Majesty the Emperor was flipping through a miscellaneous book at this time, without raising his head when he heard the words, while ordering Gao Ming to give Chen Jing a seat, he asked lazily, "Mr. Chen, where does my joy come from?"

Jiang Shangshu nodded readily: "I and Chen Xiang will enter the palace together to face the saint."

This sentence was the rhetoric used by the civil officials to oppose the emperor's strategy to the southeast.

He shook his head slightly and said: "It doesn't matter who the credit belongs to, you and I don't count. In the final analysis, it should be reported to His Majesty, and His Majesty will decide."

This led to the fact that the two people who entered Zhongshu in the same batch back then are now one in the lead, and the other is almost the last in Zhongshu.

He looked around at the crowd and asked, "The great victory in the southeast is a blessing for the country, gentlemen, can someone go into the palace with me?"

To put it simply, the ranking of the prime ministers of the Zhongshu Province is arranged according to the order of entering the Zhongshu Province, and Chen Jing is not much different from the other four prime ministers.

The only thing that can be seen in words is probably only three words left.

"Jiang Shangshu, you are also a veteran of the imperial court. It's not that you don't know what the court is like now. Since you came into power today, all major and minor matters in the court have to be sent to the Manna Palace."

If the credit for pacifying the southeast falls on Shen Yi, then the Ministry of War will be able to share some of the credit, and the credit of Shen Yi, a famous doctor.

The scolding is not very nice.

This is not the most fatal.

No one answered.

Only Prime Minister Xie, who is the oldest, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "When His Majesty mentioned the matter of suppressing Japanese in the court, I am afraid that none of the gentlemen present, including the old man, nodded in agreement. Send this document at this time." holy..."

He put the memorial book in the envelope, shook his head and sighed, and walked out of Zhongshu province.

Chen Jing didn't sit down, but held the documents in both hands, bowed his head and said, "Just received an urgent report from the Ministry of War, the Coastal Commander has won a great victory in Guangzhou. So far, I am in the southeast coast of Chen, and there is no more Japanese troubles to speak of!"

It means that he, Chen Jing, is the head of Zhongshu.

Chen Jing bowed his head deeply: "Your Majesty's short-sightedness naturally does not have the long-term vision of His Majesty..."

This has led to the fact that the five prime ministers in Zhongshu's team are not of one mind.

He stretched and stood up with a lazy tone.

He said to Chen Jing with a smile: "This scolding, Chen Xiang should go and accept it himself, I won't go later."

Among the several prime ministers, because Xie Min was the oldest, he was 64 years old this year, and he had no intention of competing for the top spot, so he had the least conflict with Chen Jing.

Prime Minister Xie Min is the oldest one.

Among them, Prime Minister Cui Yu lowered his head slightly, and the brush in his hand seemed to be writing, but if someone is proficient in lip language, it can be seen that this Prime Minister Cui is clearly swearing!

The age difference is not big, which means that the five prime ministers of Zhongshu are actually of the same generation.

"You go down and prepare to work with the Ministry of War to make a contribution to the coastal capital."

"I thought it was necessary to mobilize teachers, labor the people and waste money without seeing the merits of it."

"Then report to His Majesty."

Chen Jing stood up slowly, took the document sent by the Ministry of War from the last prime minister who read the letter, and sighed: "This memorial has a lot to do with it. I need to go to the palace to present this matter to His Majesty." .”

Now, His Majesty the Emperor returned it without changing a word.

Chen Jing lowered his head slightly.

Then, the possibility of wanting to kill the senior to take the position is relatively much lower.

"No one can take the credit for your Ministry of War."

"Oh?"

His Majesty the Emperor put down the miscellaneous books in his hand and glanced at Chen Jing.

There might even be a group of five people and ten groups secretly.

But as far as the present is concerned, this is also true. After Prime Ministers Yang Jingzong and Wang Dan have resigned successively, it is true that Prime Minister Chen is in charge of the Central Secretariat at present. It is completely fine to say that he is the head of the family, but this kind of words, Speaking from his own mouth, the taste is not quite right.

This is also the reason why Chen Jing expressed his status so blatantly.

As soon as he left, the remaining prime ministers in Zhongshu all had different expressions.

More importantly, Jiang Jian, Minister of the Ministry of War, will have a brighter personal future.

At this moment, Jiang Jian found a chair in Zhongshu and sat down. He looked at Chen Jing and said with a smile, "Chen Xiang, what's going on in the southeast, if you don't tell me what's going on in the southeast, you know it well. Although Jin Shizi went south under his name, he might not even recognize the few command envoys under the Dusi, let alone the thousand households below."

"Your Majesty's planning is thousands of miles away, and the suppression of the Japanese is at the fingertips. The sacred and holy martial arts are admired by the veteran!"

For example, the former prime minister Yang Jingzong and Zhang Jing were much more experienced than other prime ministers, even a generation behind. Even Wang Dan, who temporarily took over Yang Jingzong's position in Hongde's sixth year, was able to overwhelm him. Zhongshu's other prime ministers.

The most terrible thing is that the ages of the five prime ministers in Zhongshu...the difference is not that big.

Chen Xiang sighed helplessly, shook his head and said, "Forget it, if you take this position, you deserve to be scolded."

As the head of civil servants, Chen Jing has already mastered the art of reading to the extreme.

Of course, he did it mostly for himself.

As for the current situation of the Zhongshu Province, whether it was a coincidence, or whether it was intentional by Emperor Hongde, no one can say clearly.

But Chen Jing is not good.

Hanlin Bachelor.

"This southeast Dading, our Ministry of War has contributed a lot!"

Jiang Jian argued with Chen Jing again, and then left Zhongshu angrily, and went back to the Ministry of War.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Li Mu, the Commander of the Coastal Capital, is the son of King Jin... Is the Ministry of War giving meritorious service to the son of Jin, or the clan's government to judge the son of Jin?"

The emperor waved his hand, motioned Gao Ming to fetch the document, and said lazily, "Okay, I got it."

In recent years, Shen Yi's "popularity" in the court has not been very good. Except for the elder Zhao Changping, basically few people would speak for him in the court. Take credit for Shen Yi.

Then, among the six departments of the Ministry of War, it almost competes with the Ministry of Industry for the last place, and maybe it can be lifted up.

Dress up what?
…………

Hearing what Chen Jing said, the faces of the several prime ministers present all had smiles on their faces. Prime Minister Cui Yu said: "It is inevitable to compete for food in the court. These ministers are all very powerful. Except for Chen Xiang, I am afraid that there is no one there." Can handle it."

The emperor glanced at Chen Jing and snorted.

"You don't have to worry about Prince Jin's affairs."

Chen Jing bowed his head deeply.

"The old minister obeyed..."
