Chapter 305 Yang Yi: Impossible, absolutely impossible!
I don't know how much time passed, but Yang Yi heard someone calling him.
"Wei Gong, Wei Gong? Wake up."
Yang Yi shook her head and raised her head, opened her eyes, and tried her best to keep her eyes wide open, and then she vaguely saw that the person standing in front of her was Fei Yi.
He spoke loudly: "Well, well, it's Gongwei, what's the matter?"
"Mr. Wei, the banquet is over."
"...Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, it's so impolite to lose your temper in front of His Majesty and the Prime Minister." Yang Yi patted her forehead, stood up with Fei Yi's help, and looked around. Sure enough,
Weiyang Palace was completely empty, with only a dozen maids and attendants silently cleaning up the mess.
Fei Yi helped Yang Yi go out and said, "Mr. Wei, your Majesty has already awarded rewards to those who have made meritorious service in the Northern Expedition."
"Oh, what is your Majesty's reward for me?" Yang Yihun asked casually.
Rewards are just icing on the cake. His family is well off, and he is not too short of money. His main goal is to be the chief minister of the house. As long as this position is confirmed, it doesn't matter whether he has a reward or not.
"Your Majesty has rewarded you with a new mansion and a reward of one hundred taels, as well as twenty servants and maids. The reward has been sent to your new mansion. Congratulations."
"We are happy if we don't share the same joy."
As Yang Yi spoke, he walked a few steps forward and left the Weiyang Palace. Then he asked belatedly: "Gongwei, from now on we will all be the four internal assistants. We need to interact more. In the past,
If you are unhappy, let them go with the wind!"
Fei Yi said "hmm" and suddenly sighed.
Yang Yi was very happy and did not notice the disappointment on Fei Yi's face. He struggled to open his arms and wanted to compose a poem outside Weiyang Palace to express his joy of getting his wish. Unfortunately, his thoughts were dry and he opened his mouth.
Nothing came out.
Fei Yi sighed again.
Yang Yi looked at Fei Yi and smiled awkwardly, then realized that the latter was in low spirits and full of sadness.
He came closer, looked at this talented colleague in confusion, and asked doubtfully: "Why does Gongwei sigh on such a happy day?"
When he said this, the cold wind blew outside the extremely empty Weiyang Palace. The two people stood on the bluestone road in the dim night. The shadows stretched out so long that Yang Yi felt an inexplicable feeling of loneliness and desolation.
As soon as the cold wind blew, he suddenly became more awake.
Fei Yi shook his head: "I'm ashamed, Mr. Wei, I didn't become one of the four internal assistants, and I made you laugh."
What?
Yang Yi was startled, then patted Fei Yi on the shoulder and comforted him: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, even if you don't become one of the four internal ministers, you are still the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and we are still good friends..."
Fei Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Wei, actually you haven't become an internal minister yet."
Yang Yi was startled again, and automatically understood the sentence "You haven't become the internal minister" as "You haven't become the head of the internal minister", and asked in surprise: "Then who is the head of the internal minister?"
?”
"Jiang Wan, Jiang Ji."
"The leader of the two internal assistants? Jiang Wan and Jiang Ji? Then Jiang Ji is just a surrender, how can he be qualified for this position?! No, I have to meet the prime minister and your majesty. How can I be with a surrender?
He is equal to the position of assistant minister!" Yang Yi found it difficult to accept this bolt from the blue, turned around and rushed to Weiyang Palace.
Fei Yi quickly grabbed him and said seriously, "Wei Gong, I mean, you didn't become the auxiliary minister. The four major auxiliary ministers are Jiang Wan, Dong Yun, Jiang Ji, and Wang Ling. Without you, there would be no chance of success."
I!"
Yang Yi was completely stunned this time and stood there without saying a word for a long time.
After a long while, he laughed, shook his head and said: "Impossible, absolutely impossible! Gongwei, you must be joking..."
"Hahaha, it's impossible, it's impossible!"
Fei Yi shook his head and said to the point: "If you are the assistant minister, why is it that no one paid attention to you when the banquet was over?"
This is true. Officialdom is very realistic. If Yang Yi really becomes the assistant minister, even if he is not the first assistant minister, at least twenty or thirty officials will be rushing to send him home when the banquet is over. They will never
Nobody cares.
No one cares about it, which itself explains a lot of problems.
After hearing this, there was no emotion or anger on Yang Yi's face. She straightened her clothes, said goodbye to Fei Yi, turned around and left the palace, got on the carriage, and headed to her temporary residence under the escort of her personal guards.
After returning home, Yang Yi took a sip of water, took off her official uniform, washed her face under the service of the maid, and sat down in the temporary study room until the next morning.
He ignored the voices of his personal guards urging him to go to court, ignored the lotus seed soup brought by his wife, ignored everything, and just sat quietly without eating or drinking.
At noon, Yang Yi came to life again, called his bodyguard over and asked, "What is my current official position?"
The guard was confused by this question and replied in a daze: "Your Excellency is still the Chief Secretary of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Master's book?"
Yang Yi became furious in an instant, grabbed everything she could on the desk, and threw it to the ground.
"Hehehe...Master's book, Master's book!"
"I originally set my heart on the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch. Yang Yi, Yang Yi, you are so stupid!"
The guard looked at the mess everywhere in the cracks of the ground and asked in confusion: "Sir, what happened?"
Yang Yi fell to the ground in despair, waving her hands incoherently: "What you don't understand, what you don't understand, get out! Get out!"
The guards hurriedly exited the study, closed the door, and stood guard outside.
Yang Yi just sat on the ground with her arms and legs spread out, her heart filled with darkness.
He is forty-four years old this year and has reached the second half of his life. If he cannot go further at this age, his life will stop here.
As mentioned before, the characteristics of officials in the Prime Minister's Office in the past were that they had extremely low official positions, great powers, and many affairs. Therefore, although Yang Yi was only a small chief clerk, at certain times, he could even intervene in His Majesty's affairs.
of.
But after the Prime Minister's Office was split, 99% of the power in his hands was transferred to the inner government.
In other words, now he is really just a low-ranking chief clerk. He no longer has the power to interfere with anything that has nothing to do with military logistics.
The most terrible thing is that as Zhuge Liang gets older, he gradually starts to sit in the rear and less and less personally leads the army in battles. As the chief secretary of the Prime Minister's Palace, he will face the dilemma of having nothing to do, and even his status is not even that of Ma Su or Zhao Yun in the army.
Even ordinary generals are inferior.
This huge gap was unacceptable to Yang Yi.
He needs an explanation.
An explanation from Zhuge Liang!
…
In Chang'an City, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is grand but not luxurious, simple but not simple, Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, is receiving the four new ministers.
Jiang Wan said with a worried look on his face: "Prime Minister, you are very capable of majestic affairs. This time, you are determined to win the auxiliary minister. How about I give up my position..."
At this point, Jiang Wan saw Zhuge Liang looking at him with a stern look, and quickly stopped and swallowed the words "give it to him".
"There are many people who are capable of doing things, but no one has an open mind. How can he be a good assistant minister? Don't mention this matter again. The truth has its own plans."
After that, Zhuge Liang looked around at the four ministers and said earnestly: "From now on, I will leave this important matter to you all."
"I obey the Prime Minister's order." Jiang Wan, Jiang Ji, Dong Yun, and Wang Ling accepted the order together, then turned around and left together.
Watching the four ministers leave, Zhuge Liang sighed slightly, not knowing whether what he did was a bit cruel.
Yang Yi is narrow-minded and cannot tolerate things. He will definitely not be qualified for the position of assistant minister.
For the sake of the country, there was no way Zhuge Liang could arrange for Yang Yi to take over.
Thanks: 1500 coins reward with a smile!
Thanks to: Yuguoyunyan’s 1600 coin reward,
Thanks to my previous friends for their rewards and monthly votes. I was busy writing a book and forgot to thank them.
Although I forgot to thank you, I wrote it down in my notebook.
