Wei Qingyuan glanced at Wen Guogong's back with disdain, and snorted coldly from his nose.

"The Wen family is really big-hearted! Wen Guogong is old and still wants to strive for success, but his son has no success, and he is not afraid of losing the Wen family's century-old foundation!"

Wei Qingming took a breath, stared at Wei Qingyuan angrily, and reprimanded: "Why is Wen Guogong a matter of the Wen family? It's not your turn to speak up! Didn't you read the book for so many years, that saint taught you to criticize people so casually?" ? Have you read all your books into the dog's belly?"

Wei Qingyuan kept his mouth shut, and was blocked by Wei Qingming, who had nothing to say, so he curled his lips sullenly, pulled his beard and took a sip of tea.

Wei Qingming took the indifference in Wei Qingyuan's eyes into his eyes, rubbed his forehead and let out a long sigh. He lost his temper when he was too angry, so he waved his hands weakly, and drove Wei Qingyuan out in disgust.

Wei Qingyuan had no choice but to take care of these messy things in the court. Seeing Wei Qingming waving away people, he raised his eyebrows and left the room with a smile.

In the outer courtyard, Duke Wen came out of Duke Wei's mansion with an unfriendly expression. The steward of Wen's family carefully looked at Duke Wen's expression, and greeted him with a smile.

"Your Highness..."

"Go back to the mansion!" Wen Guogong's eyes were sharp, and with a bit of suppressed anger, he interrupted the steward's words.

The manager hurriedly stopped talking, fell on the ground in fear, waited for Wen Guogong to get into the carriage, then quickly put down the curtain, and whispered to the driver to drive back to the residence.

Halfway through the carriage, Wen Guogong opened the curtain abruptly and stopped the boy who was driving the carriage. He frowned and said to the steward who was running behind the carriage: "You go to the Xining Palace. Find my aunt and let her Come back!"

The steward ran out of breath, nodded while wiping the sweat off his face, turned around and ran towards Xining Palace.After running for a few steps, he remembered something was wrong, turned back abruptly, dragged a servant at the back of the carriage, and commanded unsteadily: "Go, go back to the mansion and invite a nanny, and hurry to Xining Palace with me. "

The boy looked hesitantly at the carriage in front of him.Pulling on the steward's sleeve, he persuaded: "Senior steward, the Duke of the country is in a hurry right now, and he wants the younger one to go back to the house to find the nanny, can you catch up?"

"Hey, forget it!" The steward slapped the boy on the forehead, gritted his teeth and panted heavily.After a pause, he frowned and turned around to run away.

Here Wen Guogong is full of anger and anxiety, while the Chen family's masters over there also look serious and pensive, looking at each other, although they don't speak much, there is a sense of restlessness in the room.

Master Chen Er - Chen Hongdao, Minister of the Ministry of Officials.Sitting at the desk with his back straight, he tapped his fingers on the table.The sound echoed in the empty room, as if knocking on the hearts of several people present, making people hold their breath unconsciously.

"The third child is going to the Imperial College." After a long while of silence in the room, Chen Hongdao opened his mouth in a deep voice, with a serious face and an unquestionable tone. "The Chen family does not interfere with the position of the cabinet!"

"Second brother—" Third master Chen Hongyan's face changed slightly.He called out hastily, but the words did not fall.Being stared at by Chen Hongdao's sharp gaze, his eyes widened suddenly, then he took a deep breath, took a step back with a worried expression, turned his head and did not speak again.

The fourth master Chen Hongzheng's eyes sank, staring at Chen Hongdao, although he didn't speak, the disapproval was very obvious on his face.

"Father has retired for five or six years, and our Chen family has been sticking to our duties these years. Now it is not difficult to go further." The sixth master Chen Hongkuan glanced around the room, stroked his chin and opened his mouth slowly. He said, "Second brother has been in the official department for more than ten years..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Hongdao shot over with a cold gaze, which made Chen Hongkuan's heart skip a beat, then he looked away, and glanced at Chen Hongzheng and Chen Hongsheng, who had expressions of discontent and resentment, and sneered unconvincedly: " The second elder brother wants to end up in the old bureaucracy, and we brothers dare not persuade. The third elder brother has a straight temper, and he can do it in the Imperial Academy and the Imperial Academy. But the fourth and fifth elder brothers are a godsend opportunity to go further, not to mention the sage intends to promote Chen Family, this is also a good thing for the Chen family. Second brother himself doesn't want to join the cabinet, so he can't stop our Chen family from making progress! If the Chen family is a century-old family, if the children and grandchildren are so content with the status quo, it's worth noting this title!"

"You also know that the Chen family is a century-old family!" Chen Hongdao slapped the table and stood up, his face was full of anger, his eyes were full of anger, and he pointed at Chen Hongkuan's nose with a flushed face and scolded, "The Chen family's century-old foundation is not up to you Point fingers!"

Chen Hongyan squinted to see that the atmosphere in the room was not right. Chen Hongkuan and Chen Hongdao could immediately quarrel in such a tense situation. He quickly turned his neck and pulled Chen Hongkuan's arm. He was about to persuade him, but before he could speak, Chen Hongkuan gave him a cold face Shake it off.

"It's not up to me!" Chen Hongkuan poked his neck back and pushed back at Chen Hongdao, glaring at Chen Hongdao with the same ugly expression and shouted, "Second brother can't help it!"

"You..." Chen Hongdao trembled his fingers, his face was flushed with anger, he bit his lips, and cursed through gritted teeth, "You bastard!" Couldn't say a word, just stared at Chen Hongzheng and Chen Hongsheng who were silent in the room with extreme annoyance, the anger in his heart was mixed with indescribable powerlessness and bitterness, and it took a long time to gradually calm down Angry, he slumped on a chair, closed his eyes, and his low voice revealed a shocking calm.

"All go to the ancestral hall to offer incense to the ancestors of the Chen family."

Everyone in the room looked at me and looked at me, staring at the tired Chen Hongdao with strange expressions, and were silent for a while.

Unlike the Chen family's sword-ridden situation, the Wang family's was extremely calm at the moment. Mrs. Wang was writing with great interest in the study with a pen in her hand.

Wang Chengren turned around at the door of the study, stretched his neck and glanced into the study, frowning, thought for a while, stepped in, and then retracted.When my father was writing, he was most afraid of being disturbed by others, but about Mr. Sun Ge... Father must know, but he didn't say anything... Wang Chengren felt agitated and confused for a while.Now that the situation is unclear, the Wang family will naturally not interfere with the affairs of the cabinet. However, the Holy Majesty called him by name in the court today to question him. Although he managed to prevaricate, but if the Holy Majesty asks again...

In his opinion, he naturally favored Yuan Congshan.Your Majesty, I'm afraid that's what he means—the Wang family and the Yuan family are in-laws bestowed by the Majesty, and the marriage between Wu Lang and the third girl of the Yuan family is scheduled for July!If not, it would not be his turn to speak for such a matter as a minister of the Ministry of Rites!

Wang Chengren was circling irritably, when old Mrs. Wang's impatient voice came from the room: "Why are you wandering outside!"

Wang Chengren heaved a sigh of relief, hurriedly entered the room with a smile, and graciously cleaned up the table for Mrs. Wang, but was pushed away by Mrs. Wang frowning.

"Stand aside!" Mrs. Wang gave Wang Chengren a disgusted look, "My son is about to get married, and he's still so frizzy! Are you getting old for nothing?"

The smile on Wang Chengren's face froze, and he stood silently by the desk, looked at the gap and passed the paper and pen to Old Madam Wang, looked at the expression on Old Madam Wang's face and said carefully, "It's early this morning. Sun Ge told the old man, and the Holy Majesty agreed. There is one person missing in the cabinet, and the Holy Majesty asked me by name, saying that it is to see who is suitable."

Old Mrs. Wang's face was not happy, she just lowered her head and carefully collected the written posts on the table, without even looking at Wang Chengren.

Seeing this, Wang Chengren felt a little uncertain, frowned, paused, and continued hesitantly: "I think, the Holy Majesty may have deliberately let Yuan Congshan enter the cabinet. The Yuan family and our family are related by marriage, so I can't say that." According to my father, if the Holy Majesty asks again, this person..."

Wang Chengren was stunned by Old Madam Wang's half-smiling eyes, and his voice became lower and lower. Finally, he simply stopped talking and spoke to Old Madam Wang eagerly and seriously.

"The Holy Majesty has his own decision on who should join the cabinet, and it's not up to the Wang family to comment. Several of your brothers are working abroad, and you've only been back for less than two years. What do you know? It's a joke to tell the court! A bunch of old officials in the village didn't speak up, so what are you talking about? Wulang's wedding is next month, if you have time, you might as well talk to Wulang. He has been in the Ministry of Rites for a year, and when he gets married, he will be a burden to the Wang family I have to hand it over to him slowly! He has to take care of the Wang family."

Mrs. Wang's tone was flat and her voice was not high, as if she was making a routine, she lit Wang Chengren.

Wang Chengren was stunned when he heard this, he held the inkstone in his hand and did not move for a long time, only to wake up when Old Madam Wang frowned and pulled him over, he hurriedly nodded his head in response.

"Son understands, father is at ease. Wulang has calmed down a bit this year." Wang Chengren frowned for a moment, then asked again. "When Goro gets married, let him work outside for a few years?"

"It's not urgent." Mrs. Wang waved her hands with a flat face, turned around and put away the inkstone, and drove Wang Chengren out of the house.

Wang Chengren retreated slowly, looked up at the increasingly intense sun outside, and sighed with emotion.The Chen family and the Gu family are probably all staring at the position of the cabinet, so it's fine if the Wang family doesn't get involved.Now in this court, the princes are really...

Gu Changwen, Minister of the Household Department, was stroking his beard at the moment, with a calm face, but his eyes were a little solemn, and he instructed the rest of the Gu family in a deep voice.

"The cabinet candidates don't have to come from the Gu family, but they have to be someone that the Gu family can control! The Holy One intends to let Yuan Congshan replace Mr. Sun. If Yuan Congshan enters the cabinet, the Wei Xiang faction is too powerful, and it will be a serious problem for the Gu family. This matter, You have to think long term."

Gu Changwen frowned, his voice was low but extremely serious.

"Yuan Congshan is a rigorous person, he doesn't talk much, but he is extremely reliable in his work. He has always been a favorite of the Sacred Heart. This time, the Holy Majesty intends to promote him again. It is difficult for the Holy Majesty to change his mind!" Second Master Gu Chang He frowned and let out a long sigh, sighing in embarrassment.

"Yuan Congshan himself won the Sacred Heart, so it doesn't mean that the rest of the Yuan family will also get the Sacred Heart." The third master Gu Changzhou raised his eyebrows and smiled coldly.
