The next day, Zhao Zhenxu issued an edict naming King Yong and King Yan as princes to the world, and Wei Chentuo's clever advice from immortals to the officials gradually became known.
Although Wei Chen was unhappy because his share of the credit was inexplicably taken away from Xu Mu, no matter what, no one could replace Wei Chen's role in the final decision on the appointment of the crown prince.
Enough to make countless people envious.
】
Because of this meritorious service, Wei Chen was directly promoted to an official rank. He was promoted from the sixth-rank Hanlin editor to the sixth-rank Zhan Shifu Zuo Zhongyun.
Zhan Shifu was originally a government office that tutored the prince of the East Palace, but now there are only two princes and no prince, so Zhan Shifu has become a place that provides official titles for promotion to the Hanlin Academy. Wei Chen's official position is still in the Hanlin Academy. p>
After King Yong and King Yan were appointed as princes, they naturally would not forget Wei Chen as a "great benefactor" and sent invitations to invite Wei Chen to the banquet one after another.
However, either of these two invitations would be enough to attract countless people, but Wei Chen declined them all.
Just kidding, if others don’t know, Wei Chen doesn’t know either. Even though these two are so famous now, they will only see each other again on Huangquan Road in two years. Of course, Wei Chen should stay away from them.
Moreover, since the prince was appointed, the struggle between King Yong and King Yan has been on the surface. They are not at odds with each other. No matter which party Wei Chen goes to for a banquet, he will offend the other party.
On the contrary, as it is now, it is safest not to rely on either side. At least both sides must be grateful for Wei Chen's previous advice to establish the throne, and will not cause trouble to Wei Chen.
The battle for succession is about to intensify and become a huge whirlpool. You don’t have to stay out of it if you want to. Many people are forced to be involved in it and have to make a choice.
Wei Chen took the risk this time and took the lead, charging ahead in order to seek a talisman to ensure that he would not be involved in the battle between King Yong and King Yan, and to survive the period before his true destiny, Zhao Zongquan, ascended the throne.
Two years.
Of course, this is only one of the benefits.
Behind the whole incident this time, Han Zhang was in charge of the overall situation, and Wei Chen was just a pawn at best. The reason why Wei Chen agreed to be driven by Han Zhang was because from Han Zhang, Wei Chen could get what he had always dreamed of.
Stuff.
And this is related to Wei Chen's deeper plan.
……
On this day, after the postponement, Wei Chen had nothing to do, so he stopped by the Hanlin Academy to sit and meet Sheng Changbai, Wang Yaochen and the others.
It happened that today, the Shujishi instructor led the Shujishi to help organize documents in the review hall. Sheng Changbai and Wang Yaochen were both there. As soon as Wei Chen entered the review hall, the two of them put down what they were doing and came over.
Wang Yaochen smiled and said: "Xingyun, I'm so happy to hear that you were promoted to minister!"
Wang Yaochen learned about Wei Chen's promotion from Sheng Changbai.
Wang Yaochen was filled with emotion when he thought that he still had to "intern" in the Hanlin Academy for three years before graduating, but Wei Chen had already been valued by the emperor and was on the fast track to promotion.
Wang Yaochen used to always think about catching up with Wei Chen one day, but now he has become less and less hopeful.
There's no other way, Wei Chen's promotion speed is frighteningly fast, how can he chase after him?
Wei Chen and Wang Yaochen hadn't seen each other for a while, and he chatted with Wang Yaochen for a while with a smile on his face. However, their conversation soon diverted to Sheng Changbai who was standing aside.
I heard that Sheng Hong was negotiating for Sheng Changbai recently, and the woman was almost finalized. She was the examiner at Wei Chen's college examination, the fifth daughter of Jiangnan Xuezheng Walrus.
Wei Chen and Wang Yaochen both teased Sheng Changbai about this matter. Sheng Changbai also blushed in a rare blush and had to continue burying his head in the files.
While Wei Chen was chatting with old friends in the review hall, a Hanlin scholar suddenly hurried in.
Wei Chen turned around and saw that it was Lu Ning who was writing the book, and asked curiously: "Brother Lu, what happened?"
Lu Ning finally took a breath and said to Wei Chen: "Brother Wei, just now several censors jointly signed a letter to impeach you!"
Wei Chen was stunned for a moment, then said goodbye to Sheng Changbai and the others, left the Hanlin Academy and rushed to the Liuke Corridor.
Memorials like this that blatantly impeach officials will be copied and distributed through the Liuke Gallery and sent to officials of all sizes for review.
Wei Chen arrived at the Liu Ke Gallery and read the memorial to impeach him. He immediately understood that someone was impeaching him for deceiving the emperor with the talk of ghosts and gods, and requested that he be removed from the posts of Zuo Zhongyun and Jing Yanzhan of Zhan Shifu.
This is the bad consequence of standing out. No matter what you do, you will be put under a magnifying glass and criticized. Even if the final result is good, there will always be people who will focus on the little problems in the process.
However, Wei Chen had already been mentally prepared for this. When he agreed to Han Zhang's request, he expected that he might face the impeachment of the censor.
Looking at the censors signed under the memorial, Wei Chen couldn't help but chuckle: You have helped me a lot this time.
At the same time, in the back hall of Chongzheng Hall, Zhao Zhen was furious about this memorial.
"At the beginning, I did not want to establish a crown prince, and these censors rushed to write letters begging me to establish a crown prince. Now that I have changed my mind and decided to establish a crown prince, they have come to impeach the great hero who established the crown prince. It is simply unreasonable and unreasonable!"
Seeing Zhao Zhen walking anxiously in front of the throne, Gao Huai, who was standing at the foot of the steps, turned his eyes and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be angry. I heard that no capable minister or official will be impeached by the censor, like For an important minister like Academician Han, the memorials to impeach him could fill a whole room. I think Wei Zhongyun was impeached for the same reason this time."
After hearing Gao Huai's words, Zhao Zhen's anger subsided and he glanced sideways at him and said, "You do know how to speak. According to what you say, Wei Chen can join Han Zhang in the future and become a scholar in Longtuge?" Gao Huai quickly knelt down and said: "The position of a great scholar is naturally determined by His Majesty's Sacred Heart. I dare not speak nonsense."
Zhao Zhen laughed, swept the memorial to the corner of the imperial eucalyptus, and said calmly: "Let's stay in the middle."
As Gao Huai said, in the Zhou Dynasty, the impeachment of officials was nothing new, but not being impeached was new. Therefore, Zhao Zhen did not pay attention to it, but left the memorial in the center and dealt with the matter coldly. p>
However, what Zhao Zhen didn't expect was that in the next few days, seventeen memorials impeaching Wei Chen were lying on his imperial edict.
There is no way, Wei Chen has been in the limelight this year, and it is inevitable that he will make people jealous. It's just that I couldn't find anything wrong with Wei Chen before, so I couldn't do anything about it.
Now that we finally have such an opportunity, many villains who were originally hiding in the dark have come out and used this opportunity to step on Wei Chen.
Moreover, because Zhao Zhen intended to protect Wei Chen, he left out all the memorials to impeach Wei Chen, and the content of the memorials even began to change from impeaching Wei Chen to impeaching the emperor.
This is the nature of urine of the imperial censor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
If you dare to miss my memorial, I will dare to point the finger at you, even if you are the emperor.
Now, Zhao Zhen finally felt that things were a little tricky.
