"Those little dogs from the Ministry of Justice are really blind, and they will do anything to get promoted and make money!" the Minister of Household Affairs said angrily.
Si Qianyun looked at the indignant Minister of Household Affairs, and hurriedly walked to her side and grabbed the latter's bare hand with his small hands. His eyes showed the scheming success, and he hurriedly continued to fan the flames and said: "That's right! Cousin, if Wu Jingxian hadn't appeared in time,
, I’m afraid you won’t be able to see me today, wuwuwu~”
When the Minister of Household Affairs saw the mist in the eyes of his beloved sister, his heart tightened, and he looked at Wu Zhongxian helplessly.
On one side is his beloved sister, and on the other side is Wu Zhongxian, whom he despises and hates. At this time, the Minister of Tobe is also in a dilemma.
"Jinglan, it is His Majesty's will to reopen the Jianghu Department now. You and Wu Jingxian are both officials of the Qin Dynasty and should help each other." Si Changqing's eyes flashed and he spoke at the right time.
The Minister of Household Affairs sighed lightly, and the meaning of Si Changqing's personal words was of course different from Si Qianyun's.
Si Changqing is the Right Chancellor. As long as he opens the mouth of gold, even his immediate superior, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, is standing here and must comply with it.
When the Minister of Household Affairs saw Wu Zhongxian's proud smile, his heart suddenly boiled with anger, and he couldn't vent his grievances. He put his bare hands on his forehead and said softly: "Uncle, why do you want to get involved..."
Si Changqing was also a little helpless at this time. The officialdom was ups and downs due to the merits of the party. He had been an official for half his life. He knew these truths very well. Only by being wise and careful can he go to the end and protect his family from being persecuted.
"Alas... Jinglan, my uncle will be sixty this year. I passed the number one scholar at twenty, and at my thirtieth, I was granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister by the late Emperor's gift. This can be regarded as taking over this huge Si family smoothly." Si.
Chang Qing sat in the center, his eyes were long and deep, and although his tone was soft, the words in it were as heavy as a ton in the ears of the two girls!
"But people will grow old one day, and even the most powerful clan will decline one day. Now, uncle, I am really old, and I don't know how many more years I can survive."
Si Changqing set his sights on the Minister of Household Affairs and Si Qianyun, and then said:
"I have sat in the position of Right Chancellor for more than thirty years. I have inherited the kindness of the late emperor Tuogu and the great expectations of the people of the Qin Dynasty. I have been constraining you in the court all my life and clearing the way for His Majesty to control all the officials. I will not say
My life is pure and innocent, but I am worthy of the light in my heart."
"Fate has turned, thanks to God's gift, I, Si Changqing, am satisfied! It's just...just...I still can't worry about you after all!" When Si Changqing said this, he couldn't help but burst into tears!
"Dad, what are you talking nonsense about? You have such a strong body that you can live for another thirty years without any problem! Dad, hurry up and say, 'Bah, bah, bah!'" Si Qianyun couldn't hide the sadness on his face after hearing this, and threw himself into Si Changqing's arms.
In the middle, the little face full of tears is raised, which is very pitiful!
"Uncle, you have worked hard for the Qin Dynasty for half your life. Now our country, the Qin Dynasty, is peaceful and the people are at peace. If there is a spirit from heaven, the emperors of the Qin Dynasty will bless you!" The Minister of Hubu was obviously touched, and he hurriedly came to sit beside Si Changqing and squatted down.
This right-hand prime minister, who had always served the country and assisted the emperor, now looked more like an ordinary old father who was worried about what happened after his death.
Wu Zhongxian sighed in his heart. No matter what kind of official position he sat in, what he could not let go of in the end were his children and descendants. Even if he worked hard for his children for a lifetime, what he wanted to see in the end was never the gold and silver mountains, but his own steps.
Children can settle down and live a happy life, start a family and build a career.
Si Changqing smiled and waved his hand and said: "Everyone will die eventually, and the cycle of heaven cannot be changed. This big tree of mine can still shelter you from the wind and rain for a few years, so it can still survive."
The right prime minister turned his attention to Wu Zhongxian, waved slightly and said: "Little friend Wu, I have been observing you for a long time, especially your high-spiritedness in the main hall that day, which was quite as proud as when I was young.
I think he will definitely become a pillar of our great Qin Dynasty in the future!"
Coming!
Wu Zhongxian had already guessed that Si Changqing came in person today to see him. Si Qianyun's relationship alone was not enough for Si Changqing to see him alone and privately.
But Si Changqing is still here today.
Could it be that this old man wanted to accept him as a disciple? Or make himself a disciple of the Right Prime Minister?
While Wu Zhongxian was secretly speculating in his mind, he silently saluted Si Changqing and said, "Young men don't dare take this position! My seniors are the pillars of our Qin Dynasty. I think I am far different from you, my seniors."
"Well, he is proud but not arrogant. He is talented and has a matching moral character. He is indeed the person of His Majesty's liking." Si Changqing praised him sincerely.
Si Qianyun, who was standing aside, was stunned. His father was usually known for being strict. When had he ever seen him praise a junior like this?
"Hehehe, how can the man I like be a mediocre person?" Si Qianyun sincerely praised his own vision in his heart!
On the contrary, Wu Zhongxian could guess the sudden change in the expression of the Minister of Household Affairs. She could also guess it. After thinking for a while, she finally said: "Uncle, this person's identity and background are complicated, especially when it comes to this and His Majesty.
, if you want to accept him as your disciple, I'm afraid...I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain clearly to the court."
Wu Zhongxian couldn't help but roll his eyes at the Minister of Household Affairs. This man really wanted to make himself unhappy, but he had to admit that what he said was the truth.
The reason why Great Qin abandoned the Three Gongs and Nine Ministers and reformed the entire civil service system to the system of three provinces and six ministries was, in the final analysis, a process of mutual wrestling between the imperial power and the entire civil service system.
The most critical turning point in this process was the battle of the northern barbarians moving south. No one at the time could have imagined that this crucial battle, which was related to the life and death of the Qin Dynasty, would have such a profound impact on the future.
The Ying family of Great Qin was also completely defeated by the entire civil service system in this catastrophe, so much so that just after the battle to defend the capital, all the officials in the court forced the late emperor to issue the "Edict of Sin"!
The late emperor died in depression amidst the scoldings of stupid people dozens of days after the promulgation of the "Edict on Sin".
And as the late emperor gave up and took an era with him, the old system of the Qin Dynasty also fell apart one by one under the cavalry of the barbarians in the following years!
All the officials in the court, under the guise of treacherous ministers harming the country and swearing to die for the Qing Dynasty, made the emperor's sword less sharp and forcefully seized power from the Ying family.
At this point, the farce ended with the Ying clan of Great Qin relinquishing part of its power in exchange for the support of hundreds of officials in the court and the continuation of the Ying clan's legal tradition.
If the current emperor had not won the throne and reorganized the old mountains and rivers with the momentum of conquering thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, he would have driven out all the barbarian tribes in the north and completely eliminated the hidden dangers in the northern part of the Qin Dynasty.
That day, the empress entered the land of gods in the enemy formation. This scene was seen by all the people of Great Qin. They all knelt down and worshiped, feeling that their destiny belonged to the Ying clan of Great Qin!
In other words, if the Empress had not appeared at this point in time, the Qin Dynasty might not be able to win now.
But even so, the empress still had to abide by the compromise she made to all officials in the court during the late emperor's time.
Similarly, in order to maintain the hard-won rights in the hands of the entire civil service system, they must hold on to their lives at any cost, so they later allowed Chen Liuwang and others to take advantage of the loopholes. This is completely appeasing and supporting traitors!
Wu Zhongxian represents the power of the empress Ying Zhao, so the Minister of Household Affairs is worried that Si Changqing, the head of the officials, will have contact with Wu Zhongxian.
This was something that no official in the court would tolerate! Wu Zhongxian's move to lead the Jianghu Division was regarded by them as a sign that the empress wanted to get involved in the court!
