Early the next morning, Fang Jun dressed neatly and rode to the Ministry of Personnel to go through the official transfer procedures.
Fang Jun was the emperor's son-in-law, and he was also the predecessor of Jing Zhaoyin. There was no equality between officials like the chief minister, so the person responsible for receiving Fang Jun was Su, the Minister of Civil Affairs.
Su's grandfather was Su Wei, the prime minister of the Sui Dynasty. After a famous family, he also married Princess Nanchang, the daughter of his ancestor Li Yuan, who was a royal relative. Not only that, this person was also listed as an official in the consultation process.
One of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, he and Fang Xuanling jointly assist His Majesty Li Er, with profound qualifications.
Su is the youngest among the eighteen bachelors. He is still only in his fifties. He is thin in stature and elegant in appearance. He has three neatly trimmed beards and is very handsome.
Fang Jun was brought into the check-in room by the clerk. Su stood up after writing the desk with a warm smile. He walked forward and took Fang Jun's arm cordially and said with a smile: "I went to the house to congratulate him the day before yesterday, but it was a pity that there were too many people and we couldn't."
It's a pity to have a drink with Erlang. When I have time in the future, I should invite Erlang to a banquet so that we can get closer and closer, but don't postpone it."
Fang Jun hurriedly said: "My uncle is joking. I can win your favor. This junior can't help but be happy. How can I dare to postpone it? As an elder, you really don't have to entertain yourself. You only need to send a scribe."
Although he was in the civil service office, Su kept talking about old times, and Fang Jun was naturally not worthy of his official position. A few polite words made the relationship between them much closer. The Su family was weak and not keen on fighting for power, otherwise
Nor can he just serve as a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs with his qualifications of eighteen bachelors, and there will be no conflict of interest with Fang Jun.
This person has an elegant temperament and is indifferent to fame and wealth. Although he is a bit older, he is a person who can be friends with.
Su Hehe smiled and pointedly said: "Erlang is a promising young man and his reputation is growing day by day. Which of the idle clerks in the bureau's yamen is qualified to handle the procedures for you? That is, a man with a deep skin like this, relying on his stupidity.
I am reluctant to come forward to entertain you, but I am not afraid of making you unhappy."
Fang Jun thought for a moment and then understood the meaning of Su's words...
Our reputation for relationships is pretty bad. From Jingzhao Yinqian to the Minister of War, he was downgraded several levels. For fear that he would be angry at others if he was unhappy, no one from the staff was willing to come out to entertain him...
However, it was more likely that someone wanted to deliberately embarrass him, but was secretly stopped by Su, who wanted to sell him a favor.
You should know that the current Minister of the Ministry of Personnel is Gao Shilian, and his younger brother Gao Jifu is also the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Judging from what Xianyu said in the house, the Gao family is obviously standing on the opposite side of themselves and trying their best to bring down
Suppress and demote yourself...
Fang Jun smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "So, thank you uncle for taking care of me."
Su Haha laughed. It is a pleasure to get along with smart people. You only need to make a little effort to know that you still have unfinished ideas. It is really refreshing.
He didn't mean to defend Fang Jun against the Gao brothers, but he had been too angry with the two brothers in the official office for many years, so he could help himself by filling in the gaps for them when they were in the scene.
Feeling relaxed and happy, very happy...
After hearing this, Fang Jun felt secretly angry and kept the Gao family in his heart.
The procedures for official transfer were complicated, but although Su was often suppressed in the bureau office, given his position and qualifications, he was naturally convinced that the clerks would run errands to get things done, and there were not many constraints or difficulties.
Fang Jun and Su drank a cup of hot tea and chatted for a while, and then the formalities were completed.
Su Dao: "The government, official seals and other things will be sent to the house later. Now that I have nothing to do, why don't I have my officer accompany you when you take up the post of the Ministry of War? Let's find a place to have a drink together later."
Although they didn't chat for a few words, he had gained some insight into Fang Jun's erudition. He had a good mind and a strong memory, and occasionally had a witty saying, which made him very fond of him. He really wanted to make acquaintance with him.
Fan.
Fang Jun was naturally obedient, so he thanked him first, and then the two of them went out together and walked to the Ministry of War Yamen not far away.
*****
In the duty room of Gao Shilian, the Minister of Civil Affairs, the Gao brothers sat opposite each other.
The atmosphere is not harmonious...
Gao Shilian not only served as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, but also held the post of Youpu She. Although the position of Youpu She was under Fang Xuanling's Zuo Pushe, there were not many things in the Shangshu Province that needed him to decide, but after all, it was
One of the prime ministers and assistants has a high and powerful position, and he has his word in the official office. Who dares to disobey him?
But there is this clan brother in front of him, who sometimes relies on his relationship with the same clan and clan to think that he will not punish him in any way and fill his own problems...
"Brother, why did you stop me just now? That Fang Jun has always been arrogant, and he even seriously injured Shiro. When he arrived at the official office today, he should be humiliated. Otherwise, others would think that our Gao family was being bullied but did not dare to fight back.
Generations?"
Gao Jifu was dissatisfied and said angrily.
Gao Shilian held the tea cup in his hand, leaned back on the chair, with his eyelids drooping, and said slowly: "In your opinion, this official yamen is the yamen of my Gao family. You can do whatever you want.
No one can control you?"
His tone was not serious, but Gao Jifu was startled and said quickly: "How can I have such intention, little brother? I am just unhappy with Fang Jun's arrogance and want to teach him a lesson. In the past, he served as Jing Zhaoyin, and the entire Chang'an City was
Under his jurisdiction, he still has the capital to be somewhat arrogant. However, now he is just a minister of the Ministry of War, so what's the point? Even if he succeeds Li Ji and becomes the Minister of the Ministry of War in the future, what can he do to my Gao family if he has a different path in civil and military affairs? "
Gao Shilian's old face showed no emotion or anger. He put the tea cup in his hand on the table, tapped the table top with his fingers, and said word by word: "Remember from now on, don't open your mouth and keep silent about what the Gao family is like. You are just a Gao family."
If your family is just a remote branch of the family, if someone hadn't promoted you, how could He De have been able to hold the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs? You can't represent the Gao family, let alone tie the Gao family to you as your promotion.
chips."
The old man was very angry!
Since the last time he played with the prince's father-in-law Su, Gao Shilian has been full of anger at Gao Jifu's actions. What is going on in this man's mind? That is the prince's father-in-law. You played with Su, and you will suffer losses.
It's a royal face. If His Majesty hadn't taken advantage of my old face, do you think you would have ended up in a good position?
Now I want to take the opportunity to take revenge on Fang Jun...
That's downright stupid!
It would be fine if Gao Jifu was really cruel and ruthless and put Fang Jun into a situation of no return. After all, he was considered a character. But humiliating Fang Jun like this, apart from successfully arousing Fang Jun's hatred, what benefit did he have?
Gao Jifu's face turned green and white. He had worked tirelessly beside Gao Shilian for so many years, but he never thought that he had such no status in Gao Shilian's heart. It turned out that everything he had was charity from others.
Since then, I have never regarded myself as a member of the Gao family...
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Gao Jifu stood up with a panic look on his face and said repeatedly: "Brother, don't blame me, it's my younger brother who was reckless! But although my younger brother made mistakes, he always wanted to benefit the Gao family from the beginning to the end, and he never had the slightest intention of doing so.
You have to eat everything you want! I can achieve what I have today because of the support of my elder brother. Even until the day I die, I must follow my elder brother's lead and never change my mind!"
Gao Shilian snorted lightly and did not comment on Gao Jifu's words. He raised his hand slightly: "You must think more about your actions in the future. Don't go astray, otherwise you will regret it. Okay, go out, I still have official business to deal with."
."
"Here."
Gao Jifu responded quickly and left the check-in room in fear...
*****
Fang Jun and Su walked side by side, followed by several servants and scribes.
The imperial city is neatly planned, with horizontal and vertical buildings. Most of the central government offices of the empire are located in this area.
The two chatted casually, and Su pointed to various government offices on the street and said: "Throughout the ages, when it comes to the scale of the city and the excellence of its planning, there is no one better than Chang'an."
Fang Jun was convinced.
Throughout the ages, people who build buildings have always believed in Feng Shui.
The theory of Feng Shui is actually contrary to science, is vague and has no basis. However, it has been passed down for thousands of years, but no one can deny that it explores the mysteries of heaven and earth. Therefore, even in the later generations when science is prosperous, another generation
Heroes and giants of science cannot deny all of them. They would rather believe in their existence than their non-existence.
In ancient times when natural science was ignorant, the art of Feng Shui was naturally regarded as Guigao.
At the beginning of the founding of the Sui Dynasty, Yu Wenkai, the Minister of Industry at the time, built the capital city on the order of Emperor Wen Yang Jian. He combined his own ancient and modern architectural techniques with Feng Shui techniques to build the famous Daxing City through the ages, which was Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty.
