The young uncle came to the palace again today.
As before, the Queen prepared a sumptuous meal.
Song Hongzhi continued to concentrate on eating, and from time to time he would let out words of praise.
Queen Song Youwei looked helpless about this.
Different from the strictness of parents.
She loved her younger brother from the bottom of her heart. Since childhood, she would give almost any good thing to him first.
Because of this, the relationship between the two siblings can be said to be very good.
Song Hongzhi doesn't have to listen to his parents on many things.
But I will take my sister's words to heart.
Soon, the young uncle finished all the food on the table, leaned back in his chair, and looked very satisfied.
Seeing this, Song Youwei shook her head and immediately prepared to order someone to prepare tea.
"Not busy, not busy." Song Hongzhi smiled and said, "Sister, you are really amazing. Last time I said Dad wanted to resign and asked you to persuade him, but I didn't expect that you would directly ask for a position as the Second Minister of the Cabinet from your brother-in-law, the Emperor. Tsk, tsk, how did you do that?"
In fact, the reason why he asked his sister to persuade his father not to resign was for no other reason.
He is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and his annual salary is quite high.
And I have been practicing martial arts recently.
It really costs too much money.
Without the support of my family, it would be difficult to continue.
If I can't learn martial arts, my future military service plans will definitely be ruined, and of course I can't let my father resign.
But what he didn't expect was that his sister actually let his father directly become the second assistant minister of the cabinet and temporarily served as the Minister of Revenue.
What does this mean? It's almost the pinnacle of imperial officials.
Second only to the Prime Minister Zhang Zhengming.
Even Song Hongzhi was shocked when he heard the news.
"Don't talk nonsense! What do you mean by the official position I asked His Majesty for for my father?"
Upon hearing this, Song Youwei frowned and spoke in a stern tone.
The Queen asked His Majesty to give her father an official position.
This is not a good thing to say.
If this gets out, people might accuse the harem of interfering in the appointment of officials of the previous dynasty.
Even the queen would not be able to bear such a charge. Even if it was just some rumors, she had to be careful.
"Huh?" Song Hongzhi, standing nearby, was puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "It's not you, sister? But I heard some people in the capital privately saying that our father was able to become the Second Minister of the Cabinet because of your influence."
"Do you think your sister has the ability to decide the appointment of a cabinet minister with just a few words?" Song Youwei shook her head and continued, "Think carefully. Our Song family is not a famous family. How can we have such great power?"
"Besides, although I am now the queen, how long have I been in the palace, and how long have I been married to Your Majesty?"
"Even if I whisper in your ear, will Your Majesty really listen to me?"
She felt that she simply didn't have the energy for it.
However, if it were Zhao Lingying, who came from a noble family with great prestige in the army, there might still be a possibility.
But the Song family is just a scholarly family, and for several generations, they have never produced any important officials in the court.
In this case, how is it possible to interfere with the appointment of officials of the previous dynasty?
Moreover, he is at the level of Grand Secretary of the Cabinet.
Even if it comes too late, it won’t work.
unless.
It is your Majesty who is currently foolish.
But is this possible? Song Youwei thinks it is impossible.
Although she felt that letting her father serve as a cabinet minister was indeed a little difficult to understand...
"This..." Song Hongzhi was also stunned after hearing this, and couldn't help but continue: "Then how did Dad become the Second Minister of the Cabinet?"
The Deputy Prime Minister of the Cabinet is not an idle official, but an important official of the country. His words and deeds can decide many things.
It's impossible to make a decision casually, right?
That's too much of a joke.
"Can I say I don't know either?"
Song Youwei said helplessly that she was actually very confused too.
I wanted to resign on behalf of my father, but His Majesty did not play by the rules.
Next to him, Song Hongzhi also fell silent, thinking that if it wasn't his sister who spoke, then what other reason could there be?
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." At this time, Song Youwei glanced at her brother and signaled him not to continue.
After all, it was a very sensitive matter, as it related to the appointment of officials from the previous dynasty. Although this was Kunshou Palace, and he was surrounded by people he could trust, he couldn't guarantee that the news would leak out.
"Okay!" The young uncle was no fool, so he naturally understood the meaning. He stopped talking and changed the subject, saying, "Sister, when I entered the palace, I heard from your maids that the emperor's brother-in-law has been visiting you quite often lately?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" The Queen nodded and continued, "Don't tell me, are you still thinking about joining the army?"
"Of course!" When Song Hongzhi talked about this, he immediately became energetic and said excitedly.
"Sister, you don't know, I've read some military books, and I've also been working hard to practice martial arts."
"Now, my brother is no longer the same as before. I have already reached the eighth level of martial arts."
After saying that, he stood up directly.
Stimulate the energy and blood in the body.
"Stop!" Seeing this, Song Youwei immediately shouted, "This is the forbidden area of the imperial palace, how dare you come here!"
At the same time, Song Hongzhi also felt waves of murderous aura coming from all directions. He immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and hid his aura without hesitation.
At this time, the murderous aura around them slowly dissipated until it could no longer be felt.
"Huh~" Song Youwei also breathed a sigh of relief, but with lingering fear, she glared at her brother.
This is the forbidden area of the imperial palace.
There are imperial guards patrolling almost every place.
