Zhao Heshan suppressed his thoughts, raised his hands and said respectfully.
Waving his hand, Li Chen said nonchalantly: "You are Rui'er's father. Although according to etiquette and law, you are not considered an in-law if you are not a wife, but now I only have Rui'er, and she is also very popular with me. As her father, you,
If someone is attacked and killed, I will not sit idly by and ignore it."
As he said that, Li Chen opened a secret book from the desk, looked at the information about Zhao Heshan that was densely displayed in detail, and said lightly: "Zhao Heshan is a distant brother of Zhao Xuanji, and his bloodline is still in the fifth server.
Within the first year of Daxing, he passed the Imperial Examination and became a Jinshi. In the same year, he entered the Hanlin Academy as an editor. A year later, he was transferred to the local government and served as the magistrate of Huaihe County. After serving as magistrate for three years, his political performance was assessed as first-class by the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
He jumped out among the first batch of Jinshi."
"Later, Zhao Xuanji, who was the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs at the time, recommended you to serve as an imperial minister. A year later, you were promoted two levels and went to Su City, a prosperous place, to serve as the prefect."
"After five years of experience in Suzhou City, in the winter of the 10th year of Daxing, I was transferred to the General Affairs Department of the capital as the right general administration."
"In the 13th year of Daxing, he was transferred to the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, and in the 15th year of Daxing, he was transferred to the right minister of the Ministry of Personnel."
"This resume, from the time you passed the imperial examination and entered the Hanlin Academy to the gilded qualifications, until you served as a local, county and prefectural chief executive, and then entered the central government, with the accumulation of the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial Palace, you will be able to work in the six major departments.
Get rid of the other two.”
"I have checked that when you were serving as the Minister of General Affairs, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Personnel, the then General Secretary, Tongzheng Shi, the Minister of Rites, and the Minister of Personnel were all Zhao Xuanji's right-hand men, and every time you
The leap in key positions was made possible by Zhao Xuanji’s recommendation.”
"It can be seen that your entire official career has been arranged for you by Zhao Xuanji. If nothing unexpected happens, after serving as the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, you will most likely be transferred to another one of the six departments as the minister, and then directly enter the second rank of the dynasty.
His rank and rank, if he continues to this day, he may be the number one courtier under the cabinet."
"However, in the winter of the fifteenth year of Daxing, half a year after you were transferred to the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, you were suddenly demoted to Hejian as the prefect. From the third rank to the bottom, you returned to the sesame mung bean official of the seventh rank. Fifteen years
Once my official career was wiped out, I am very curious, what happened that year?"
When Li Chen spoke, Zhao Heshan showed no expression.
After listening quietly, he bowed and said, "To tell you what Your Highness is saying, it's just that we have different political ideas."
Li Chen said calmly: "The dispute over ideas has caused you to part ways with Zhao Xuanji, who is your mentor in the official career and a close relative, and you will not hesitate to waste fifteen years of hard work?"
Sighing lightly, Zhao Heshan said with a lonely expression: "Wei Chen has long forgotten all the things in the past, but the conflict of ideas between Wei Chen and the chief minister had long existed at that time. It was just that Wei Chen was naive and still had a little illusion at that time. He always felt that
We could convince the chief minister, but later the conflicts and differences between us became increasingly serious, and it coincided with the conflict between the ministerial power and the imperial power."
"Wei Chen seemed to be a third-rank official at that time, but in this kind of struggle, he was nothing more than cannon fodder. The chief assistant pushed the situation and pushed Wei Chen out to block the wrath of the Holy Emperor. Wei Chen thought, anyway, this third-rank official uniform is also the chief assistant.
If a humble minister got something from him, it would be better to simply return it to him, so that neither of us owes him anything."
"But......"
"However, you soon discovered that without Zhao Xuanji's support, it was even known throughout the court that you were abandoned and hated by him. Even in the small county town of Hejian, your life was not satisfactory, and it could even be said that it was difficult to move forward.
