"The Minister of Etiquette?!"

Although it was a private banquet, the conversation was on official business.

The prince had obviously got the news too, knowing that Xu Furen had been to Sun Shaozong's mansion yesterday, so he couldn't wait to ask the details as soon as he was seated.

Although the need for continuation of future generations is very urgent, after all, it is not something that can be done overnight-on the contrary, the ‘end’ after Xu Furen is implicated is the top priority for the princelings nowadays.

When I learned that Xu Furen was assigned to the Ministry of Rites and became a small third-rank waiter, the prince was shocked and blurted out: "Father's jealousy for loneliness has reached such a level?!"

Immediately, it was like being possessed by a **** of weakness, and the whole life seemed to lose its color.

It's not the spine that is broken, so it always looks like it's going to collapse at any time.

Sun Shaozong slandered in his heart, but said with a serious face: "His Royal Highness, don't worry, in the opinion of the ministers, the appointment of the minister of ceremonies may not be deliberately aimed at you."

At the moment, he gave a brief and concise narrative about himself and Xu Furen, about to leave Jin as an envoy.

Finally, he concluded: "Take advantage of the imperial court's successive use of troops in the south, and the Jurchens connected Tatars to the west and North Korea in the east, and this has gradually become a confidant concern for our court."

"Now that it presupposes the king, and wants to learn from China's centralization of power in the central government, the momentum is no different at the moment, but the internal pressure has reached an unprecedented level."

"This time the imperial court sent people to patrol Liaodong, mostly because they wanted to take the opportunity to provoke greater disputes among the Jurchens, so as to weaken their strength and prevent them from continuing to grow."

"In this way, when the court vacates its hands, it can be destroyed in one fell swoop with the force of thunder!"

"Such a major event requires resourceful, steady and experienced talents to take care of it!"

"And since the court is unwilling to recognize Houjin, it is naturally not easy to appoint important ministers to go there - Mr. Xu, who has no actual job now, has become the cheapest candidate."

"Presumably after everything is done, the court will have another use for Xu Lao."

Listening to Sun Shaozong's prosperous analysis of this for a long time, the prince only grasped one important point: "There is another reuse? Then according to Aiqing's speculation, what kind of position will it be?"

Where does Sun Shaozong speculate?

But the prince stared at himself eagerly, as if he would not give up unless he got the answer, Sun Shaozong had to use his brains and desperately deduced the pattern of the court.

Xue Pan's veteran official secretary Wang Zhe will most likely succeed Xu Furen in the pavilion. By then, the position of the official secretary will naturally be handed over.

It can be seen that the emperor’s current attitude towards the prince, I am afraid it is impossible to let Xu Furen out of the head of the staff, otherwise, wouldn’t it be obvious that he wanted the prince to plant a party feather?

It seems that the qualifications, talents, and reputation of the two servants of the official department are not enough to take over the position of Shangshu...

The Book of Etiquette also held the position of cabinet minister, so naturally he could not be transferred to the official department.

Zhang Qiu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, had just taken office at the beginning of the year, and the possibility of being transferred to the official position was close to zero.

The Ministry of Defense is too professional, and now it is time to use foreign troops again, so it is unlikely that they will be replaced.

Criminal Ministry...

Hube?

In Sun Shaozong's mind, Zhou Chang's face flashed in his mind, and his heart moved involuntarily.

Although Shangshu of the Ministry of Households is also an important position, in its current form, even if the prince can get the support of money and food, there is absolutely no possibility of usurping the throne.

As for the Shangshu Zhao Hong of the Ministry of Households, he has actually only been in office for a year, and it stands to reason that he has not yet moved out.

However, the emperor appointed him as Shangshu of the Ministry of Households, because he was able to eliminate the corruption of the Ministry of Households.

However, this Zhao Shangshu is a stable master. After taking office, he only took down a few small officials and cleaned up the ethos of the household department. However, he did not seem to have any intention of liquidating the old accounts before.

The emperor was mostly dissatisfied with this.

It's just that Zhao Hong used to be his teacher. Compared with others, he always had more scruples, so he couldn't clearly denounce him and leave him.

But if these peaceful old people are transferred to the staff department, and Xu Furen is in charge of the household department and presides over the removal of corruption cases, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

Sun Shaozong carefully calculated several times in his heart.

In particular, I recalled in detail. When he entered the palace and reported the poisoned murder case during the report of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the attitude shown by Emperor Guangde gradually became 50% sure in his heart—multiple choice questions, A 50% certainty is not low anymore.

So then he sternly said: "The ministers dare not make a rash decision, but Xu Lao may leave the household department-after Zhao Shangshu is transferred to the official department."

"Zhao Hong is going to the staff department?"

The prince asked blankly: "Where is Wang Zhe, the official secretary?"

"Wang Shangshu is about to join the pavilion."

Before Sun Shaozong responded, a soft voice came in from outside.

Sun Shaozong subconsciously followed the prestige, and saw the crown prince Tingting curling up, a royal blue cloak with a turn-up collar, lined with goose yellow and purple tassel palace dress, Luan Feng and Ming Jin on top of his head, holding a wine jar in his hands despite being unconventional. , But it is still inexhaustible, graceful, dignified, gorgeous and not vulgar.

I saw the prince walking along and said: "This is the aged wine collected by my father. I have brought it here to invite your Royal Highness to drink with Master Sun."

Seeing her getting closer and closer, Sun Shaozong didn't dare to look any more, and hurriedly got up and retreated to the side.

"Ai!"

When the prince saw this, he slapped the table unhappily, and scolded: "Since you are the same clan, this is another private feast today. Why do you have to be so pretentious? Hurry up, sit back and have a few drinks with Guhaosheng. cup!"

After speaking, he said to the princess: "Don't rush away, and talk about it for Gu and Aiqing!"

Although forced to come, the princess did not see the slightest reluctance and embarrassment on her face at this time~www.readwn.com~ she nodded to the princess, and slapped the mud seal openly and directly raised the wine. Prince Tanti was full, and went around Sun Shaozong to do the same.

"How is this made, how is this made?!"

Regardless of what he thought, Sun Shaozong could only assume a flattered, sincere and fearful attitude at this time, and waited until the crown princess was filled with wine and thanked him again and again.

"Okay, okay, Gu said that there is no need for politeness!"

The prince waved his hand impatiently, then pointed to the other side and said, "Sit down, too, or Sun Aiqing is afraid that she will not even dare to sit in."

This……

Sun Shaozong's eyes widened in astonishment, and asked the prince to pour the wine, which can be said to be a win over people, but what did she mean by sitting by her side?

The princess concubine saw the shock on his face, and finally couldn't help but flush with embarrassment on Yingyu's face.

But after all, she still did not refuse. After reaching her hips with her hands, she gathered the cloak and palace skirt into a peach-like outline, and then slowly sat on the round stool.

Then she pressed her heart into a shock, raised her white neck and smiled and said, "Your Highness is rare to have such a good spirit. Second Brother Shao Zong doesn't need to be too restrictive, just treat it as a family banquet."

Sun Shaozong was really overwhelmed by this gentle and gentle "Second Brother".

"Sit, sit, sit!"

Coupled with the urging of the prince again, Sun Shaozong had no choice but to re-seat carefully.

The prince laughed and raised his wine glass and said, "Come on, do it for Aiqing alone. When Aiqing arrives in Liaodong, you must let those barbarians see and see, the style of the first majestic general of the week!"

Seeing that the prince princess also raised the tea cup with interest, Sun Shaozong naturally couldn't shirk, and he drank a full drink bravely, but he was puzzled by all kinds of things: What is it about this play today?
