My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 24
What would you do if a tabletop-sized pie, steaming hot and full of aromas, came down from the sky and stuffed straight into your mouth?
At this moment, Xu Jingchang is facing such a situation.

If it is said that it is just a routine operation to let him inherit the title, but adding the title of Prince and Taibao is considered super promotion. After all, Yao Guangxiao is the prince's junior teacher, and he is only the second rank.

As for asking him to preside over the Xunhui of the Six Departments and the Nine Ministers, that would be even more nonsense.

Because everyone understands that, apart from the emperor, he is the prime minister who presides over the meeting of important ministers.

Prime Minister who is less than 16 years old, what joke are you talking about?
Xu Jingchang's name is not Gan Luo, so he can't open it like this.

"Master Yao, what exactly do you mean?"

Yao Guangxiao said displeasedly while eating: "This is the meaning of the emperor, and it has nothing to do with the old man."

Xu Jingchang sneered, Zhu Di?

He may be first-rate in war, but he is a little bit worse when it comes to scheming. After all, he has just become the emperor, and it may be okay to give him a few more years.

Push yourself out, it must be this old thief who is bald.

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyelids, and an idea came to him.

"Since it's His Majesty's intention, then I have nothing to say, but obey the order. It's just that the courtiers may not agree." Xu Jingchang said lightly.

Yao Guangxiao smiled and said, "Who would dare to object to the courtiers?"

Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "It is enough for the General Secretary Si Zuo to consult Wu Shan."

"Wu Shan? Isn't he one of your subordinates? How dare he disobey the Shangguan?"

"I let him dare!" Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "I will write a memorial now to impeach His Majesty for nepotism. Xu Jingchang is young, and because he is the queen's nephew, he stole high positions, corrupted the national code, and disturbed the court. He should be dismissed immediately. Just put Wu Shan's name on it."

Yao Guangxiao frowned, "Do you think this melody will be useful?"

Xu Jingchang laughed even louder, "I just need everyone who preaches it to know before he writes the letter, and then I will write the letter to make an excuse, and at the same time please close the door and think about my mistakes. In this case, I don't need to make an order from your majesty, and I can hide at home and relax again. It will be difficult for me to get out."

Hearing this, Yao Guangxiao's old face changed color, and he finally became angry, "You little rascal, you are too hateful!"

"Hahaha! Breaking the defense, right!" Xu Jingchang said with a chuckle, "I have been thinking about how to get out since I became the general administrator. Your old monk is planning to push me to the front. How can I be easily fooled?"

After finishing speaking, Xu Jingchang happily poured himself a glass of wine, and said with a sip, good wine!

At this time, the initiative finally returned to Xu Jingchang's hands.

He didn't fully understand Yao Guangxiao's tricks, but he didn't have to. Anyway, as long as you don't fall for the tricks, your plans are useless. If you don't buy, you will save 100%.

You old monk, don't trick me.

Yao Guangxiao was so angry that his lungs exploded, Zhu Di was ten thousand times easier to deal with than you!
"Xu Tongzheng, what exactly do you want? You don't want the power given to you?"

Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "Master, let me tell you the truth, everyone likes power, but I will not accept things that are beyond my ability. It is still the same sentence, my father's generation is damaged , I don’t want to put myself in it.”

At this moment, Yao Guangxiao has no mantras at all.

"Okay, let me tell the truth about the head office! Your Majesty wants to form a cabinet, but he is worried that it will cause chaos in the court. Delegating power to the six ministries will not be able to bear His Majesty's grand ambitions. So let you mediate first, and see how deep the court is. With so many courtiers, who is worthy and who is not. By the way, let’s take a look at how many ridiculous things Jianwen has done in the past few years. Don’t worry, this time will not be too long. After a few months, His Royal Highness will come from Beiping. At that time, the old monk will persuade His Majesty to let the prince supervise the country. At that time, the courtiers will gather around the prince, you, Marquis of Wuyang, are not as charismatic as the prince after all!"

Xu Jingchang frowned slightly, and suddenly said: "Young master, my eldest cousin's reserve position has been confirmed?"

Yao Guangxiao was surprised for a moment, and then said: "That's right, it was the empress who told His Majesty privately that we should respect the meaning of Emperor Taizu. He also said that His Highness is kind and will treat brothers well, but His Highness may not."

Xu Jingchang took a deep breath, this time he understood.

Fatty Zhu recommends him to be a prince, which is to reciprocate, and thank him for doing the work of Empress Xu well.

As a marquis of super grade, it is logical to give him the title of Prince and Taibao.This is Xungui's advantage. It is very rare for a civil servant to be a grand teacher. But for Xungui, it is easy to get the title of Sangong Sangu.

Of course, even if Xu Jingchang was given the title of Grand Master, the officials would not really treat him as a teacher.

You are so unworthy!
But the problem is that with this title, Xu Jingchang will be able to rank ahead of the six ministers, set up a cabinet, and the important ministers object, and set up the six ministers and the Jiuqing Xunhui, which can be regarded as an explanation for them.

It's just that Jian Yi must not be the one taking the lead.

Whether it is the current Xu Jingchang or the future prince supervising the country, it is better than a de facto prime minister.

Xu Jingchang calculated again and again, but there was no obvious loophole.

"Master Yao, I promised this matter. From now on, your old man, my big cousin, and Your Majesty will all support me and help me. No matter what, you must not let me face the courtiers alone, otherwise I will Throw your hands away."

Yao Guangxiao breathed a sigh of relief, "It is harder to persuade you to become an official than to persuade His Majesty to rebel. Come, let's have a drink."

The two of them exchanged cups and drank happily.

It's just that the two of them are happy, and none of the court officials are happy.

Jian Yi was especially depressed. He wanted to take power by himself and suppress the cabinet, but in the end the matter was completed, but it was not fully completed, and Xu Jingchang, a little bastard, was taken advantage of.

The agency's calculations are not satisfactory.

What was even more depressing was Yang Rong and Xie Jin. They finally stood out and became close ministers of the emperor.
Originally, he wanted to flex his muscles, but in the end, the Jiuqing meeting took away the cabinet's few advantages at once.And even though they are close ministers, they can't hold back that Xu Jingchang is a relative of the emperor!
Good guy, Xu Jingchang has offended the cabinet again invisibly.

On the road of being hated by people and hated by dogs, he is already the best in the world. If you vote for the most unpopular courtier, there is no doubt that Xu Jingchang will be on the top of the list, without dispute!
It's just that no matter how much the big guys hate him, no one dares to challenge Zhu Di now that the imperial decree has come down.

Ten days later, Jian Yi, Xia Yuanji, Chen Ying, Wu Zhong... the six important ministers all gathered in the lobby of the General Secretary.

Wu Shan's heart was pounding. He was never so excited when he got married.

Who would have thought that such a yamen as the Secretary of General Administration would be able to shine so brilliantly.

If your lord is the prime minister, you can be regarded as the deputy prime minister. This status is really skyrocketing, which is not the same.He was excited to welcome all the adults.

But this group of people are sullen, as if they owed them 8 taels of silver and haven't paid them back, they don't give any good face.

Wu Shan had no choice but to invite all the big guys over, and after they were seated, he said to invite Xu Jingchang, and hurried to the back hall.

"They're all here?" Xu Jingchang said calmly.

Wu Shan nodded, "They're all here."

"Did you show your face?"

Wu Shan was stunned, and said helplessly, "If someone has a high official position, he will have a big temper, so it doesn't matter if you are dismissed."

Xu Jingchang stared, "What do you mean? You are my subordinate, and they just look down on me to put on face for you. Have you forgotten my temper?"

Wu Shan was startled, then looked up at Xu Jingchang, his voice trembling slightly, "My lord, you, are you going to vent your anger on the humble official?"

Xu Jingchang laughed and said, "Look!"

After talking, Xu Jingchang strode out, and Wu Shan's heart felt hot, so he hurriedly lowered his head and chased after him.

When he arrived at the lobby, Xu Jingchang looked at everyone. The six departments and Zuodu Yushi were all second-rank officials, with gold belts around their waists.

Only Xu Jingchang, he is from the first rank, with a jade belt around his waist.

Gold has a price, jade is priceless, and the status gap widens in an instant.

May I ask, who dares to underestimate Xu Jingchang?
"My lords, we hold this ten-day meeting to be more loyal to His Majesty, to deal with the chaotic government affairs, and to benefit the country and the people. But let me tell you, the big guy has to put virtue first, and he is not worthy of being an official if he has a bad mind." clothes."

Xu Jingchang looked at Jian Yi and said with a smile, "What do the heavenly officials think?"

Jian Yi said sullenly, "Xu Tongzheng has a good opinion."

Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "Well, as long as Jian Shangshu agrees, it will be easy. I just inquired about it. Today is the day to deal with Ru Yu and other officials. I suggest that the big guy go to the execution ground first to see if he has lived up to his debts." What is the end of righteous corrupt officials! As the saying goes, you must never forget your original intention. The big guy wants to regain his innocent heart when he studied to help the world and help the country and the people! Right?"

The ministers were dumbfounded, you want us to watch the murder?
what do you think?

At this time, Wu Shan burst into tears, quickly wiped his sleeves, and said excitedly, "Your Excellency is right!"
