Xu Qing couldn't help but be slightly startled when he saw this scene, and he couldn't help but want to step back...
I couldn't help but feel a little nervous. What's wrong with these high-ranking officials?
The Minister of Punishment walked up to Xu Qing and said: "The uncle of Anding County is really a talented person. I really hate meeting the uncle of Anding County so late! I didn't expect that the uncle of Anding County is such a talented person. He is a dragon and a phoenix among people. By the way, have you ever met him?"
Marriage? I happen to have a daughter, 28 years old, Yunying is unmarried..."
Before the Minister of Punishment finished speaking, he was squeezed away by another official with a long beard.
The Minister of Rites stood in front of Xu Qing and said: "Bo Anding, please don't be deceived by this man's honest face. I will tell the truth to Bo Anding. Lao Zhang's daughter Yunying is not married just because his daughter has a long face."
She has a mole, but my daughter is really as beautiful as a flower in twenty-eight years..."
At this time, another person squeezed in from the right side of Xu Qing. The Minister of the Ministry of Industry looked at Xu Qing and said: "Uncle Anding, the horseshoe drawing you drew at the beginning was drawn by our Ministry of Industry. We are a family. If you want to do it, you should also do it with us."
The son-in-law of the Ministry of Industry, right? Although I don’t have a daughter, I have a smart granddaughter... Although she is a bit younger, it doesn’t matter..."
Xu Qing looked to the left, then to the right... He was very suspicious that he had come to the wrong place.
Is this really the Great Chu Chaotang?
Xu Qing, whether watching TV series or relying on his own imagination, the court should look like this: civil and military officials are separated on both sides, talking freely about loyalty, punishment, rewards, and denouncing the ups and downs of the officialdom. It is the center of power in Da Chu. Officials in the court should be calm.
And indifferent, his words are elegant and sharp.
But what Xu Qing saw was: My daughter is prettier than his daughter, so marry my daughter! Although I don’t have a daughter, I have a granddaughter!
Is this really a big fucking court? Are you sure it’s not a large-scale blind date?
Xu Qing took a step back, cupped his hands and said, "My lords... I have a wife..."
The Minister of Etiquette was stunned: "Already married? Which family made the move so quickly?"
The Minister of Punishment asked in confusion: "Has someone taken advantage of you so quickly? Which of the six departments is it?"
The Minister of Libu coughed and came over, glanced at the three ministers and said: "You are looking for a uncle for your daughter and granddaughter, and you don't even think about whether they are married, and you are still embarrassing yourself here?"
Then the Minister of Civil Affairs walked up to Xu Qing and said with a smile: "Uncle Anding, others don't know, but I have learned about it carefully. You are marrying the only daughter of the Anding County Magistrate. Moreover, the couple is very loving and respects your father-in-law very much."
,right?"
Hearing this sentence, the three ministers couldn't help but change their expressions, and they all looked at Xu Qing as if they were fools. It was enough for the youngest county magistrate to marry a princess, but he married the daughter of a county magistrate?
!
Is the promised match a good match? Does the temperament match?! Did her parents order a matchmaker? What is wrong with the daughter of my minister?!
How can it be cheaper than just a county magistrate!
At first they thought that one of the six films had taken advantage of him first, but in the end, the dignified county magistrate of Anding and the leader of the state business finally married the daughter of a county magistrate. Who can believe this?
Even when the eyes of the three ministers changed, Xu Qing, the Minister of Libu, grabbed him and said: "I tell you, I am the Minister of Libu. If our two families establish a good relationship, your father-in-law's promotion will be smooth sailing in the future.
Yes, you will stand next to me when I go to court later..."
"Old Li!" At this time, a voice came from behind. The Minister of Hubu came over and patted away the Minister of Libu, grabbed Xu Qing's hand and said: "You, the Minister of Libu, openly used public affairs for personal gain in the court.
Aren’t you afraid that I will submit a report to His Majesty to take part in your participation?!”
The Minister of Libu instantly looked up at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle: "Did I just say something?"
Shangshu of Hubu stood in front of Xu Qing and said: "Brother Xu Qing, I asked you to call me brother. Look, I am Shangshu of Hubu. Your Guoshang is also called Xiaohubu. In fact,
From a relationship point of view, we are just a family. Brother, I have to be honest, don’t look at these people who appear to be friendly on the surface, but they are actually jealous! Everyone is thinking about how to treat you.
Where is your father-in-law? Look, Lao Zhong still wants to be your grandfather. His motives are obviously impure! Only I really want to make friends with you! You don’t have to worry about anything when you go to court later.
Just stand next to me..."
As soon as the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance finished speaking a few words, Xu Qing was pulled over by the imperial censor again: "Uncle Anding, you are from the line of princes, and I am also from the line of princes. To put it more closely, we can all be considered half
Senior brother, senior brother, I came early and called you "junior brother". You see, based on our relationship, you have to stand next to senior brother for a while, right?"
At this time, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel came over again and pulled Xu Qing and the imperial censor away: "Old Song, please don't mess around here. If you return to the line of princes, who is not the line of princes? I entered the court before all of you.
Good morning, am I your senior brother? It is the senior brother's responsibility to take care of the junior brother, why do you need you to join in the fun?"
After saying that, the Minister of Civil Affairs turned his attention to Xu Qing and said: "Junior brother, don't listen to him. I will stand next to senior brother in a moment."
Xu Qing looked at this...and then at that...looking confused...
If Xu Qing remembers correctly, the court strictly prohibits forming parties for personal gains, right? This is the biggest taboo!
If you dare to say such things, you will be condemned by the emperor!
The Ministry of Personnel is also called the Minister of Heavenly Officials, which means the official closest to heaven. The Ministry of Personnel controls the promotion and scheduling of officials, big and small, and its power is higher than that of the Ministry of Households, which is in charge of the world's money and food.
And this Tianguan Shangshu openly stated in front of him that he was from the line of princes... everyone was one of his own, and even before he even said a word to express his stance, he had already become his junior brother...
If this Heavenly Official Minister dares to reveal his identity like this, he is either confident or desperate for his life...
If the imperial censor and the minister of heaven can openly say that they belong to the royal family, then they seem to be confident.
We can't let a stupid and desperate person sit on the position of Heavenly Official Minister...
It seems that the power structure and interaction of forces in the Great Chu Court are more complicated than I imagined.
Moreover, I am afraid that I have underestimated the extent of the wise king's control over the court.
Yes, since I can let the Minister of Heavenly Officials slap my chest in front of the court and say that I am a member of the lineage of virtuous kings, then it is estimated that most of the court are people of the lineage of virtuous kings...
