Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 379: What’s the point of being trapped in a cocoon?

Quiet.

The court, which was noisy just now, suddenly became audible at this moment.

But after a brief period of silence, the civil and military officials suddenly came back to their senses, and then they all followed Zhao Min's gaze and looked at one person in unison -

Secretary Supervisor Huang Si.

The head of the Secretariat Department had a confused look on his face at this time. He didn't seem to fully understand what Zhao Min said. He looked at the latter indifferently, his brows furrowed, and a look of thought flashed in his eyes.

What does it mean?Something seems wrong!

There are many official positions in the Secretariat, but generally speaking, the most important one is Secretary Supervisor, followed by Secretary Cheng and Secretary Lang, and then there are School Secretary, Lingshi, Zhengzi Lushi, Scholars, and Scholars. Lang, Wenlin Lang, Kaishu Lang, etc., from the words, you can see the general functions, but they are not permanent, sometimes established, sometimes removed.

In addition, the Secretariat Province also has a semi-independent department, which was merged into the Ministry of Works during the reign of Emperor Xuanwu. There was one secretary and eight assistants. However, this Ministry of Works was considered a semi-independent agency, specializing in national history. .

China attaches great importance to history, so this book province is actually watched by all parties. It is the private domain of historians. Usually, even the secretary-supervisor cannot directly give orders. If the secretary-supervisor has something to do, he has to discuss it with the writer. Therefore, the writer is also called the writer. A great work.

However, as Huang Si thought about it, she became more and more uneasy.

"Da Honglu said that the Secretary's Office is good, but according to what he said, Chen Zhi was asked to come to the Secretary's Office to be a fifth-rank official. The problem is that for the fifth-rank Secretary's Office, I am the only secretary-supervisor, and the others are not enough. Ah! Zuo Lang, Secretary Cheng, and Secretary Lang are all sixth-grade official positions. According to his statement, Chen Zhi is supposed to be the Secretary Supervisor. What should I do?"

Thinking of this and noticing Zhao Min's malicious gaze, his heart suddenly thumped. He knew that this person might have a grudge against him, but he didn't understand. You said that I stood up for the Zhang family and wanted to mobilize him. When Chen Zhi went out to praise and kill him, Chen Zhi's clan uncle Chen Yong could only bear a grudge. Chen Zhi's boss Deng Meng could understand his displeasure. Even Yang Jie, the chief minister, could see this when he considered the recent rumors in the city. There are clues, so he will come forward to intercede, but what can you, Zhao Min, do if you have nothing to do?
All in all, when they were defeated in Northern Xinjiang, Zhao Min and Zhang Ying were still in the same camp. How could they change so easily?
No, we can't let this issue go on.

After thinking this, Huang Si quickly dismissed the distracting thoughts and wanted to speak out. He couldn't throw away his job just to stand up for the Zhang family.

But before he could speak, Zhao Min continued: "Your Majesty, in fact, if Chen Zhi was suddenly promoted to the fifth rank, he was immediately sent to the local area as a county guard. Although it was an exceptional promotion, I thought that with his talents, he could He is competent, but there are always many concerns. As everyone said before, there will inevitably be deviations that are not conducive to Chen Zhi's political performance. Moreover, he is indeed relatively junior. If he goes to a certain place, he will inevitably be looked down upon. There will be many obstacles and constraints. Since it is difficult to display your talents, it is better to find a fifth-grade position in the center first, which will give you some relief. After a year and a half, who can object after taking into account the current political achievements?"

His words made Liu Dai couldn't help but nod. Even Chen Yong, Yang Jie and Deng Meng were slightly moved. Except for Deng Meng, the remaining two people even nodded slightly.

But Zhang Ying and Huang Si frowned, knowing that according to Zhao Min's statement, the situation was very unfavorable to them and others, especially Huang Si, and they couldn't let Zhao Min say more. He was transferred out, but now looking at Zhao Min's intention, it is clear that he wants to take his seat. This is to cut off his own roots!
However, he still didn't have a chance to speak, because Chen Yong suddenly spoke again. The servant sighed and said to Zhang Ying with a look of shame: "What Zhang Shangshu just said is true. The old minister is really confused. In order to avoid suspicion, he almost The emperor missed out on a talented person. Promotion and reward should not be a private matter of the family. The old minister knows his crime and hopes that the emperor will punish him. If Chen Zhizhen has some ability, then let him sit in the Secretary's Office. There are many It is indeed a suitable place to collect books and provide advice to various departments. However, Secretary Huang has done a lot of hard work, and the position of Secretary Supervisor can only be filled by knowledgeable and talented people. Chen Zhi is still young and is really not suitable for a fifth-grade official position. As a Assistant Officer, if you continue to watch and learn, that will be enough."

When everyone heard what he said, many people's lips twitched, and they managed to hold it back, secretly thinking that this old man is shameless, but to be able to reach this position as a politician, thick black is his job.

Well, just now my great-nephew was sent to a certain place, and you couldn't do this or that. Now when I heard that he was going to be an official in the central government, he immediately promoted the virtuous and avoided his relatives, and even used retreat to advance. If we talk about being knowledgeable and talented, who in Luoyang now doesn’t know Chen Shouyi’s name?
Furthermore, it is very clever for Zhao Min to choose the Secretary's Department as his breakthrough point, because there are many books here. According to the concept of learning, the more you can read, the more you can learn. If Chen Zhi were to live in the Secretary's Department, it would be in line with the previous concept. As I said, it is more convenient to study than staying with Lie Qing.

Moreover, this position is actually not far away from the ministers, because both the emperor and the ministers can consult political history. Coupled with the rumors that Chen Zhi helped Honglu Temple organize the collection a few days ago, even Zhang Ying had to sigh secretly, This is a good opportunity.

What's even better is that this position is relatively less entangled with interests and less real power. As a librarian, there is not much oil and water, and the financial interests are small, but he can often meet all parties and has good personal connections. It is convenient for accumulation. Compared with the local county governor, it is definitely less powerful, but as a springboard and accumulated qualifications, it is more than enough, because what Zhao Min means is to let Chen Zhi raise his hopes in this fifth-grade position until everyone in the world accepts it. Now that Chen Zhi is in the fifth rank, it will be convenient for him to become the county governor.

At the same time, the position of Secretary Supervisor is also good for Zhao Min, because this is a quiet yamen, but he can get in touch with all the yamen, and there are not many taboos. With his friendship with Chen Zhi and the favor he received today, he will be invited in the future. It was only natural for Chen Zhi to help.

All these things flashed through the hearts of everyone in an instant. Most people felt the same as Ming Jing, even Chen Yong, Yang Jie and Deng Meng.

Chen Yong is satisfied with this situation. Who wouldn't want to be promoted?If the grandson of the family is promoted, he will be his help. However, if he follows Zhang Ying's momentum, it will definitely not be a good thing. Zhao Min's proposal turns a bad thing into a good thing. He just takes advantage of the situation. After all, he misses this village. , I’m afraid this store will no longer exist.Didn’t you say that my grandson is capable?Didn’t you say you should be promoted?In this case, it is appropriate to be a prefect, and it is also appropriate to be a secretary and supervisor!
And you, Huang Si, just now acted like you were selecting talents for the country, now you are stepping down to make way for talents, shouldn’t you be happy to do so?

The old man snickered secretly.

Yang Jie is also quite satisfied with the result, and he has successfully sold a favor, so he will naturally not object.

As for Deng Meng, although he felt unhappy that his subordinate capable officers could go out independently, looking at today's situation, this is probably a better result. If he insists on not allowing it, it will be inconsistent with his golden mean. Besides, Chen As long as he doesn't leave the capital, he can still help him, and the position of Secretary Supervisor is just right.

"It's a pity that the Taile Department has just started to improve. If Chen Zhi continues to be in charge, then this authority will be integrated into the position of Taileling and become real power. But if Chen Zhi joins the Secretariat and still controls several commentaries, the prestige will be If it falls on him, there won’t be much left in the Taile Department.”

All comments, because it is a new thing and Chen Zhi is in charge of it, in a short period of time, the future direction depends on the individual. If Chen Zhi can completely organize the Taile Department, Taile can be defeated in the end. The Taile Bureau has the authority over literary criticism and other matters, but to still rely on that person when others leave is tantamount to breaking away from the framework of the Taile Bureau. In the future, the Taile Bureau will have the power to convene reviews, but the power of interpretation will lie with Chen Zhi. body.

Deng Meng was well-informed and had been in the officialdom for many years. He could see the key at a glance, but there was nothing he could do about it because he noticed that the emperor's expression had relaxed.

So he also took advantage of the situation and said: "Secretary Supervisor has worked hard and made great achievements. It's time to move." On the surface, he was asking for credit for Huang Si Qinggong, but where has he got any credit recently?I'm afraid I'll cry when I move.

Zhang Ying remained silent instead. He knew very well that the current situation was a bit self-defeating. Moreover, there were so many people on the other side, and he was the only one. He couldn't do too much. Although he was unhappy, he was not panicked.

But the victory or defeat in everything is not decided at the moment. This is just a test. Wang Bu has arrangements on his side. There should always be a back-up plan for doing things. Moreover, I believe that I can confuse them by showing up this time, thinking that I have no skills and just want to trick Chen Cang secretly. .

He was free and easy and retreated.

Huang Si's eyelids jumped when he saw it!

"My dear friends, what you said makes sense." Liu Dai nodded. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this proposal was a good one. Chen Zhineng could still study, work in politics, and continue to make comments. At the same time, he could consult himself from time to time. In this way, Where can I find good things?You must agree.

However, looking at Zhang Ying's disgusting face, Liu Dai still knew the importance of the Zhang family, and it was not good to express his position on the spot and make this important minister look bad. He recalled the emperor's brother's proposal not long ago. According to Liu Chu's suggestion, Guang Chu In order to record the affairs of the ministers, the king of Han will be in charge of the minister's desk, and the ministers' orders and ministers Pushe will be handed over to the important officials of the family. Zhang Ying is one of the candidates, so we must consider his feelings.

Therefore, after thinking about it, the emperor's heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly looked at one person and said, "What the ministers said is reasonable, but the promotion of officials depends on the wishes of the Minister of Civil Affairs. This matter will be discussed later, and I will ask. I’ll make a decision after a few days, according to the wishes of the Minister of Civil Affairs.”

Liu Shi, the Minister of Civil Affairs, looked like he was in a daze. He was stunned when he heard this, and then he couldn't help but shake his head.

Well, you still remember that I am the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

Because the line of kings of the East China Sea was gradually eliminated, personnel changes were frequent, and Liu Shi was also newly appointed. His prestige was not enough, his status was unstable, and it was difficult to speak. Otherwise, could An be an official on the side?
However, everyone forgot one person at this time.

They saw Huang Si, who initially provoked the trouble, standing there as if he were mourning for his heir.

　I have something to do today, the list will be compiled tomorrow!
