Chapter 216: The Battle For Xu Qing \\"Up\\"
I couldn't help feeling a little nervous, what's wrong with these high officials?
The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice walked up to Xu Qing and said, "The county uncle of Anding is really a good-looking person. I really hate seeing the county boss of Anding too late! Unexpectedly, the county boss of Anding is such a good-looking person. He is a dragon and a phoenix among people. By the way, has Zeng Marriage? I happen to have a daughter, 28 Nianhua and Yunying are still unmarried..."
Before the Minister of the Ministry of Justice could finish his sentence, he was squeezed away by another senior official with a long beard.
Minister of the Ministry of Rites stood in front of Xu Qing and said: "Don't be fooled by this man's simple and honest face, Mr. Anding. To be honest with Mr. Anding, Lao Zhang's daughter Yunying was not married only because his daughter's face is so long. It’s a pity, but the official’s daughter is really a flower in 28 years..."
At this time, another person squeezed in from Xu Qing's right side. The Minister of the Ministry of Industry looked at Xu Qing and said, "Bo Anding, the horseshoe drawing you drew at the beginning was drawn by the Ministry of Industry. We are a family. If you want to do it, you should do it." To be the son-in-law of our Ministry of Industry, right? Although I don’t have a daughter, I have a smart granddaughter...Although she is a little younger, it doesn’t matter..."
Xu Qing looked to the left, and then to the right...he wondered if he came to the wrong place?
Is this really the Great Chu Dynasty Hall?
Whether Xu Qing is watching TV dramas or relying on his own imagination, the court should be like this: Civil and military officials are separated on both sides, talking about loyalty, punishment and rewards, and denouncing the ups and downs of the officialdom. They are the center of power in the Great Chu. Officials in the court should be calm But indifferent, the words are generous and sharp.
But what Xu Qing saw was: my daughter is prettier than his daughter, marry my daughter! Although I don't have a daughter, I have a granddaughter!
Is this fucking really the Great Chu Dynasty? Are you sure it's not a big blind date scene?
Xu Qing took a step back, cupped hands and said: "My lords... I have a lady..."
The Minister of Rites was stunned: "Already married? Which one is so quick?"
The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment asked in confusion: "It's so quick to be preempted? Which one of the six?"
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials coughed and walked over, glanced at the three ministers and said: "You are looking for a uncle for your daughter and granddaughter, and you don't even think about whether he is married or not, and you are still shameful here?"
Then Minister of the Ministry of Officials walked up to Xu Qing with a smile on his face and said, "Uncle Anding, others don't know, but I have learned about it carefully. You married the only daughter of the county magistrate of Anding, and your husband and wife are loving, and you respect your father-in-law very much." ,right?"
Hearing this sentence, the expressions of the three ministers just now couldn't help but change, and they all looked at Xu Qing with foolish eyes. It's enough for the youngest magistrate of Chu to marry a princess. He married a magistrate's daughter? !
Is it a good family right? Do you have a good temper? ! Is there a matchmaker's words from the parents' orders? What is wrong with my Shangshu family's daughter? !
How can it be cheaper than a county magistrate!
Originally, they thought that which of the six departments would act first, but in the end, the dignified Anding county uncle, the ruler of the country's merchants, finally married a county magistrate's daughter as his wife? Who can believe this?
Even when the eyes of the three ministers changed, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials held back Xu Qing and said: "I tell you, I am the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. If our two families have established a good relationship, your father-in-law's promotion will be possible in the future." It will be smooth sailing, and you will stand next to me when you go to court later..."
"Old Li!" At this time, a voice came from behind, and the Minister of the Ministry of Households came over and slapped the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, grabbed Xu Qing's hand and said, "Your Minister of the Ministry of Officials openly used public affairs for personal gain in the court. Aren't you afraid that I will play your Majesty's copy for you?!"
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials instantly looked up at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle: "Did I just say something?"
Hubu Shangshu stood in front of Xu Qing and said: "Brother Xu Qing, my brother is so big, I call you brother, you see, I am Hubu Shangshu, and your Guoshang is also called Xiaohubu. Actually From the point of view of relationship, we are a family. My brother, my brother said something from the bottom of my heart, don’t look at these few people who are kind on the surface, but they are actually thieves! Everyone is thinking about how to be you What about your father-in-law! You see, Lao Zhong still wants to be your grandfather. His motives are obviously impure! Only my brother really wants to make friends with you! Just stand next to my brother..."
Just after Hubu Shangshu finished speaking a few words, Xu Qing was dragged over by the doctor Yushi again: "Uncle Anding, you are from the lineage of princes, and this official is also from the lineage of princes. If we come closer, we can all be regarded as half-hearted." Senior brother, senior brother, I came early to call you little junior brother, you see, based on our relationship, why do you have to stand next to senior brother for a while?"
At this time, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials came over and pulled Xu Qing and Doctor Yushi away: "Old Song, don't mess around here. You are still in the line of princes. Who is not in the line of princes? It is better for me to enter the court than you. Morning, is this official your elder brother? It is the elder brother's responsibility to take care of the younger brother, and you need to join in the fun?"
As he said that, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials shifted his gaze to Xu Qing and said, "Junior brother, don't listen to him, and stand next to senior brother in a while."
Xu Qing looked at this...and then at that...with a dazed expression...
If Xu Qing remembers correctly, the court strictly forbids forming cliques for personal gain, right? This is the taboo of taboos!
If you dare to say such a thing, you will be convicted by the emperor!
The Ministry of Officials is also known as the Minister of Heaven, which means the official closest to heaven. The Ministry of Officials controls the promotion and scheduling of officials, big and small, and its power is higher than that of the Ministry of Households, which controls money and food in the world.
And this Tianguan Shangshu blatantly stated in front of him that he is a prince... Everyone is his own, and even before he said a word, he has become a junior brother...
This Tianguan Shangshu dared to reveal his identity like this, either because he was confident, or because he didn't want to die...
As long as the Yushi doctor and the heavenly official Shangshu can say that they are from the prince's line so grandly, it seems that they have nothing to fear.
I can't let a foolish and desperate person sit on the position of Tianguan Shangshu in a daze...
It seems that the power structure of the Great Chu Dynasty Hall and the interaction of forces are more complicated than I imagined.
Moreover, I am afraid that I also underestimated the degree of control the virtuous king has over the court.
That's right, since the official Shangshu can pat his chest and express in the court that I am a member of the virtuous king's family, then it is estimated that more than half of the court is from the virtuous king's family...
