Eight hundred and twentieth chapters were picked peaches
"I pay my respects to you all!" When he came in, he took a cursory glance and saw that they were all high-ranking officials in the court, and he couldn't help but be shocked.
Could it be that he was already able to participate in senior officials' discussions? Needless to say, it must be the teacher's contribution, and he was immediately grateful in his heart.
"Xia Aiqing! Please tell your disciples what happened in the south of the Yangtze River in detail." The emperor would not patiently explain to Min Feng.
Xia Qing had no choice but to take Min Feng aside. Unexpectedly, as soon as Min Feng turned around, he saw Gu Chengyu standing in the study.
His face froze, why was Gu Chengyu here? Min Feng glanced at Xia Qing, but saw that Xia Qing's face was solemn and she had no intention of answering his questions.
"I think Hu Maoshen, the imperial censor of Youdu, is the right one to be sent to Jiangnan this time. What do you think?"
Hu Maoshen was also present. Hearing the emperor's words, he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart.
This is a hard job. If the job is done well, most of the officials in the court will be offended. If the job is not done well, the emperor will be blamed.
What's more, after the flood, the things to be dealt with were complicated, and it was not easy to satisfy the emperor.
Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows, the emperor actually chose another imperial envoy? But then he thought about it, and it was reasonable.
After all, the flood issue could not be taken lightly. Min Feng was still relatively young and had never accomplished a major event on his own since he became an official.
If Min Feng is really to be given full authority over this matter, the emperor will definitely be worried. It is normal for him to send the very capable Hu Maoshen to go there.
Besides, Hu Maoshen is an official of the Inspectorate, which is perfect.
"I obey the decree!"
Hu Mao took a deep breath. Xia Qing could fight for Min Feng, but he couldn't.
If a dignified second-rank official really does not dare to take this job, then he will not be able to sit in his second-rank position.
"What? The emperor asked me to go to Jiangnan?" Min Feng was shocked after hearing what the teacher said, and then he couldn't help but panic.
How could the emperor send him to Jiangnan? Why so suddenly? Is it because of the teacher's recommendation?
"Teacher, I" Min Feng expressed something eagerly, but Xia Qing didn't give him a chance.
"The emperor has already decided that you will not be in charge of Jiangnan affairs. He has just appointed you as the censor of Jiangnan for the time being. You will only be responsible for matters related to Jiangnan. Mr. Hu from the Inspectorate is here for the rest. Don't force yourself to take the lead.
.As long as you can handle this errand well this time, you will definitely be promoted when you come back."
Xia Qing's voice was very low. Now that he knew that the emperor only asked Min Feng to temporarily serve as the censor of patrolling the river, he felt a little at ease.
Especially if he can go with his minister Hu Maoshen, and everything will be done by Prime Minister Hu Maoshen, then Min Feng's responsibilities will be much lighter.
"But, teacher, I can't do it!" Min Feng felt like a mess at this moment. He had never taken on such a big task.
"Min Feng!" Xia Qing hated the fact that iron cannot become steel. He looked at Min Feng with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
"For public purposes, since you are an official of the imperial court, and there is a flood in the south of the Yangtze River, you should do your best to protect the safety of the people. For private purposes, this is a good opportunity for you to practice. How can it be smooth sailing in the officialdom? Even if you do it in the end
If you mess up your job, you deserve to be taught a lesson! You have a good teacher behind you, why are you worried?"
He learned this through experience in the past. He is already old, how can he still protect Min Feng for the rest of his life?
If a young eagle wants to fly into the sky, it must break and then stand up. Only by leaving everything behind and moving forward bravely without leaving any way out can it learn to fly.
Gu Chengyu is a martial arts practitioner and has profound internal strength. Besides, he is not far away from the two of them. Therefore, he heard everything they talked about.
Hearing Xia Qing's sincere instructions to Min Feng, Gu Chengyu couldn't help but wonder secretly! He didn't expect Xia Qing to be so interested in Min Feng.
No matter how Xia Qing behaves, he really does his best for this disciple.
I have to say that this is a good teacher. But he is not a good official, let alone a good person.
"Min Aiqing, Xia Aiqing has told you in detail about Jiangnan, right? I will appoint you as the Censor of Jiangnan, and together with Hu Aiqing, we will go to Jiangnan immediately."
Min Feng knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and he quickly knelt down to accept the order.
"I obey the decree!"
Gu Chengyu left the Chengqian Palace, guessing that it was almost Chou Time. Usually, he would have to get up and wash up after another hour, but it seemed that he would not be able to sleep today.
He had to rush back to his mansion to wash up. After all, his mental outlook looked a little tired at the moment, and he was not suitable for attending the Hanlin Academy.
"Scholar Gu!"
Gu Chengyu was about to rush back when an old voice came from behind him.
Gu Chengyu rolled his eyes, it must be Xia Qing! Xia Qing called him at this time, it must be up to no good, maybe just to show off.
He turned around with a smile on his face and saluted, "I pay my respects to the chief minister!"
"There is no need to be polite, Bachelor Gu! Pingyun, if you don't understand anything about the floods in Jiangnan, just ask Bachelor Gu. Bachelor Gu knows the topography of Jiangnan very well. If you rush to Jiangnan, it's better to ask him first.
."
Xia Qing smiled broadly, and her words apparently meant that Min Feng asked Gu Chengyu for advice.
But the meaning behind the words made the surrounding officials who were rushing out of the palace understand the implication.
Isn't it because Gu Chengyu had been preparing for a long time, but the emperor did not order Gu Chengyu to go to Jiangnan, but gave the opportunity to Min Feng?
Gu Chengyu thought so hard, but ended up picking peaches for others. This is a naked ridicule!
All the officials who had not yet left stopped to watch the excitement.
One was a popular person in front of the emperor, and the other was the first-ranking minister of the dynasty. These two people actually came to terms with each other.
His Royal Highness the Prince walked behind and left the hall, and his ears pricked up when he saw this.
"Isn't Min Shidu going to leave immediately? If it's too late, the lower official can help him clear up his doubts. In fact, it's not difficult to say it, but it's not easy to do it. Mr. Hu is a senior official in the court.
Old minister, you have extraordinary abilities. If Min Shidu is traveling with Mr. Hu, if he is undecided, just ask Mr. Hu for advice."
Gu Chengyu smiled, as if he didn't take Xia Qing's implication to heart, and seemed to be indifferent to Xia Qing's master and apprentice picking peaches.
"I am going to the south of the Yangtze River. I hope Min Shidu can save the people of the south of the Yangtze River from the fire and water. I am very optimistic about you!"
Gu Chengyu suddenly smiled heartily, making the ministers around him stunned. Is this Gu Chengyu really so rich?
It's just that Gu Chengyu's demeanor in front of him makes Xia Qing, a person with a small belly and chicken intestines, have to spend a lot of money.
Min Feng's face looked a little ugly. When Gu Chengyu said those words to him just now, he was acting like a superior facing a subordinate.
He replied with a stiff face: "Thank you, Mr. Gu, for your kindness. I will do my best to handle this job well."
As soon as Min Feng finished speaking, Gu Chengyu didn't even glance at him from the corner of his eyes, and immediately said to Xia Qing: "Master Chief Assistant, it's getting late, so I'll excuse you now!"
