Chapter 379 Promotion

Chapter 379 Promotion

"The person who came to rescue just now, I have asked him to go out to do errands first. The third uncle and the third aunt only have one son, you, and they must be in grief at this moment. Children who cry can be given sweets, and the third uncle and the third aunt should also call for help.

You know what kind of pain they are suffering now."

"Shouldn't you express your grievances? The more miserable you are, the more sympathy you can gain."

Su Yizhao snorted coldly: "Besides, the Su family is a pure minister, wouldn't it be just right to replace Wang Deng?"

"That's why you said we can't go out now? Once we go out, all of this will be gone. This matter just happened and has not been dealt with yet. But if it drags on for a few days, we simply can't bear it."

Su Yijue frowned, a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry! Grandpa is not stupid, is it possible that he can let Wang Deng go? There will definitely be a result today."

"But the emperor may not be able to promote my grandfather immediately."

"Even if there is no appointment today, I will definitely make a promise. Doesn't the emperor know how to scheme? Once Wang Deng is dealt with, this position will be a good one. In order to prevent the night from being overtaken by other factions, there will definitely be a result today.

."

"My grandfather is now the best candidate in the court, and now is a good time. It is said to be compensation. Can the ministers object? As long as the emperor protects my grandfather, what can others do?"

"Then what if my grandfather is heartbroken and aloof and refuses to accept it? This sounds a bit..."

Su Yijue was embarrassed to say it, as if she was betraying Sun Qiurong.

Haha! Su Yizhao laughed secretly.

"No, in the final analysis, we are just one of the many descendants of the Su family. Even if my grandfather is heartbroken, there are still so many people in the clan. How can he abandon them and ignore them?"

"Not to mention the distance, my uncle is still serving in Jiangnan. Does my grandfather dare to leave him alone in Jiangnan?"

Su Yijue immediately woke up after Su Yizhao's words, yes! In fact, they are not that important, right?

He felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he understood that Su Yizhao was right.

"Fifth brother, it's just one day and one night. They will help us prepare for it. We can just get through it. Those candidates, please wait until you go out in the future and find a way to make up for it!"

Su Yijue was silent when he heard this. Although he was anxious to return home, he also knew that the overall situation should be the most important thing.

"Is the reinforcement you mentioned reliable?"

"Don't worry! There is no conflict between his interests and ours. On the contrary, cooperation will bring great benefits to both parties."

After Su Yizhao finished speaking, he urged Su Yijue to go back. They had been out for a long time and were afraid of arousing suspicion among those who were in the same year.

Su Yijue felt a little complicated at this moment. He couldn't imagine that they were trapped here just now and everyone was anxious about how to get out.

However, Su Yizhao was so calm and even took the time to plan. I can only say that comparing people to each other is very annoying.

"After we get out, we have to ask Brother Five to help stabilize everyone. Maybe it won't take one night. We'll just wait until the news comes from over there."

Xiangsi stretched out her legs toward the guard. Upon seeing this, the guard immediately took off the paper tied to her legs. The scar-faced man behind him also approached curiously.

But the guard suddenly held the note in his hand, and then said to the scar-faced man: "I wonder who you are? What is your relationship with Su Yizhao?"

The scar-faced man was silent for a while, and then he said after a moment: "Aren't you going to dig? I think this little thing came out of that hole, so there must be someone underneath."

The guard with the scarred face didn't answer the question, and he just looked at him steadily.

The scar-faced man then nodded, "Since she's fine, I'll leave first."

Looking at the scarred man's leaving figure, the guard suddenly felt that this man's figure looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

On the night of February 14th, a fire broke out in the Gongyuan of Beijing. The fire was serious and 298 people were killed.

For a time, the public was furious. In order to appease the people, the imperial court imprisoned and held accountable officials from the Ministry of Rites who participated in the Spring Festival.

The fire led to the accountability of as many as 13 officials. Among them, Wang Deng, the Minister of Rites, was dismissed from office for dereliction of duty, and the remaining officials were demoted, which calmed public anger.

But one night, the court worked quickly and posted the newly issued notice on the city wall.

All the candidates who died were buried by the imperial court according to the standards of Jinshi. They were given a Jinshi plaque, a compensation of 100 taels of silver, and an annual land tax exemption of 500 acres.

"Oh! That means you can enjoy the treatment of Jinshi."

Someone stood under the notice and read it carefully, then sighed.

"So what? There is no resurrection after death!"

Everyone shook their heads, thinking that if you are alive, don't you have these things? After you become an official, these things are nothing.

"So many officials have been held accountable, and the court is not biased this time. This is the best outcome."

"Time is destiny!" Everyone sighed and dispersed. This spring ended in this way.

White flags were hung everywhere in Su's mansion, and all the servants wore mourning clothes. Except for the fourth-generation Ming Dynasty eldest son, the other masters could only wear plain clothes.

It was getting dark, and the porter yawned, pulled the filial piety cloth around his waist, and was about to take a pee when he saw two gray-faced people standing at the door.

He was so frightened that he saw the other party glance at the white flag hanging on the house and say, "It's a bit of a waste!"

He took a closer look and immediately shouted: "Mother! There is a ghost!"

He rolled his eyes and fainted.

On the morning of February 15th, the emperor personally issued an order that Su Jinxun, the former minister of Guanglu Temple, was promoted to Minister of Rites.

Once the imperial edict was issued, all the officials were in an uproar.

However, none of the loyal ministers objected and calmly accepted this fact.

Because the emperor urgently summoned ministers to discuss matters in the imperial study the night before, Su Jinxun's promotion to the position of Minister of Rites was negotiated.

Although many officials objected, the emperor finally decided to settle the matter despite the objections of all ministers.

In his words, he expresses his gratitude to the old man who has dedicated his life to the imperial court for many years. Now, due to the negligence of those officials, he has lost two grandchildren. This is the due compensation.

Although it was not stated clearly, all ministers understood what the emperor meant.

Therefore, the position of Minister of Rites was actually taken over by Su Jinxun, which was a piece of cake falling from the sky.

Being promoted from the third rank to the second rank, a three-level jump, made many officials in the court jealous.

There were many speculations for a while, but Su Jinxun just declined it slightly and accepted it.

After going to court, E Chongming returned home with a bad look on his face.

"I didn't expect that the old man would get the advantage this time, but it makes sense. He exchanged his grandson's life for it, but I just don't know how to live with it!" E Chongming said sarcastically.

"It is common sense that people cannot be resurrected, and those who survive can continue to plan. However, the Su family went too far this time. They even made a woman cry, make trouble, and hang herself in the house, and it spread to the ears of those aristocratic families.

, making a fuss. After all, she is a married woman, so she doesn’t feel ashamed.”

E Liyun, the eldest son of E Chongming, sighed very much. He didn't expect Su Jinxun to be so brave. It was indeed a bit embarrassing to tell him.
