Chapter 728: Conclusion: You will become bald

Rong Chuan was confused the first time, and guessed the second time. This time, he counted more, and he was especially calm, "Mr. Hou."

Ning Xu felt that the more he looked at this prince who was picked up for nothing, the happier he was. The more he invested, the more he understood his father's intentions. His father was sure of Rongchuan's character. Whether he would return to the palace in the future would still depend on Rongchuan's willingness.

Ning Xu said, "I just came out of the palace, and I'll take you back home. There's no definite answer yet, so you two should be more careful."

Chang Lian's heart sank. Too many people did not want his father to be the Minister of Personnel. He and Rongchuan would be targets of attack if they were in the capital. "Thank you for the reminder, Lord."

Ning Xu smiled and said, "You're welcome. We are all one family. Ah, I mean, the Ning Mansion will remember the favor you two have done."

Chang Lian rolled his eyes in his heart. Lord Ning was not the kind of person who would let something slip. This was a few times in a row, so he didn't take it seriously anymore. He also accepted that Rong Chuan was Lord Ning's son.

Rong Chuan hooked his palm with his fingertips and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He had already recognized that Lord Ning was his father. He was already surprised that he did not have a bad background. Now he had a father who was good to him. Although he might not be able to recognize him again for some reasons, he was content.

The more Ning Xu came into contact with Rongchuan, the more he understood Rongchuan's temper. The child was still young. Rongchuan did not grow up in the palace, but grew up in the Zhou Mansion where there was no dirt. His mind was really pure. Rongchuan was also a stubborn person. He felt that the old man's plan had a high chance of succeeding.

Ning Xi felt quite excited when he thought about it. Who would want to cut off his family line? The Ning family sacrificed their eldest brother, their second brother's health, and their own life for the royal family. He couldn't suppress the urge in his heart any more!

The next morning, during the morning court session, the Emperor passed around the plan written by Zhou Shuren and motioned for all the ministers to take a look. He did not have time to let everyone review it, so the ones in the front row only needed to review it. "You have all read it, what do you think?"

The court was very quiet, and no one spoke first.

The Emperor called out his name, "What do you think, Master Huang?"

Mr. Huang couldn't say anything that would offend him. Everyone knew who wrote this letter. "Mr. Zhou is a great talent."

The emperor nodded again, "Lord Feng?"

Lord Feng closed his eyes and then opened them again, "Lord Zhou is indeed a man of great talent, but..."

The emperor did not give the emperor a chance to continue speaking and asked several other officials, who all gave their comments.

The emperor took the letter and said with satisfaction: "These days, what you said all have their own reasons, but Master Huang and Master Feng are right. Zhou Shuren's appointment as the Minister of Personnel is indeed not enough to convince the public."

Mr. Huang said hurriedly, "Your Majesty is wise."

Lord Feng, "Your Majesty is wise."

The emperor said, "But Zhou Shuren is very talented, and you have seen that. The Minister of Personnel should also make a conclusion. Zhong Ji, the Right Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, is appointed as the Minister of Personnel. Zhong Ji fully meets the requirements you mentioned, has sufficient qualifications and is obedient. As for Zhou Shuren, he will be promoted to the third rank and serve as the Right Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Do you have anything to say?"

Lord Qi was the first to speak, "Your Majesty is wise."

Lord Huang and Lord Feng looked at each other, they were both dumbfounded. So what is the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel? The Emperor had already made up his mind to arrange for Zhou Shuren, bah, just temporary. Wait, it will be confirmed next year. Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Revenue is next to the Ministry of Personnel!

Now that they have praised Zhou Shuren, Zhou Shuren did not skip two levels and directly enter the Ministry of Personnel, the head of the six ministries. Now he is a third-rank official and is still acting as the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. This is already a concession from the emperor. If they continue to make trouble, they will offend the emperor.

Mr. Huang had a terrible toothache. "Your Majesty is wise."

Lord Feng felt uncomfortable all over, "Your Majesty is wise."

Old Master Wang had a smile in his eyes, this time the dust had settled, all that was left was time. He had been promoted from the third rank, but it was indeed appropriate for Zhou Shuren to be placed in the Ministry of Revenue. It would be a shame to the court if Zhou Shuren didn't make good use of his brain.

The emperor was in a good mood. He had been watching this drama for a long time and it finally came to an end. The position of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel had attracted many people, and Zhou Shuren had also been arranged. Not bad, not bad.

The prince learned a lot. From the beginning to the end, his father just played the role of a player and did not pay anything, but he got the result he wanted most: Zhong Ji, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was his father's man!

The emperor stood up and left, and the prince hurriedly followed him.

The second prince looked at each other, feeling extremely depressed. They felt that all their efforts had been in vain.

In the Hanlin Academy, Chang Lian was summoned to the palace. Chang Lian was nervous as he had not been to the palace for a long time and he didn't know why he was summoned at this critical moment.

Chang Lian greeted the emperor immediately.

The emperor gestured to stand up and pointed to the table beside him, "I say, you draft the imperial edict."

Chang Lian was a little confused. In previous years, the Shujishi had helped draft imperial edicts. He had never thought that he would be the first among this batch of Shujishi. He said with some excitement, "Yes."

Chang Lian held the pen carefully and listened to what the emperor said. He wrote carefully. The more he wrote, the more excited he became. He told himself again and again to stay calm. He must stay calm. This was the time to test himself. Oh, this is for my father. It was written by him. The meaning is different, different, different.

When the emperor saw that it was finished, he took it and looked over it. Although Zhou Changlian was not the most knowledgeable, his character was stable. There was no trace of shaking pen in the handwriting, and every stroke was very steady. His character was good.

Chang Lian also drafted the imperial edict for his mother, and his mother was granted the rank of a third-rank lady. Chang Lian felt sad that he would not be able to support his father in this life, and he would not be able to ask for a higher imperial edict for his mother. His mother would not be able to enjoy the honor brought to her by her son in this life.

It’s a pity for Chang Lian!

In Jinzhou, Zhou Shuren had not waited for the imperial edict, but he already knew the result. Wang Ju came over after hearing the news, "Sir, you will temporarily serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue."

Zhou Shuren had a wooden face. Ah, the Ministry of Revenue, bah, the Emperor really knows how to use him. The place he least wanted to go to was the Ministry of Revenue. Even though the court had more taxes and some money in the treasury, and the court's life was better, it was only a little.

The officials in the Ministry of Revenue have the least hair among the six ministries, but they also do the most work. Not only do they have to worry a lot, but they are also often scolded. Well, being scolded is the lightest punishment. They are also often cursed to die early behind their backs!

Wang Ju was really happy for Lord Zhou, "Sir, among the six ministries, the Ministry of Personnel is the head of the six ministries, and the Ministry of Revenue is now the Ministry of Personnel. I congratulate you here."

Zhou Shuren smiled, "Ah, you think the Ministry of Revenue is good?"

Wang Ju felt a chill on her back, a bad feeling, but she didn't think it was wrong, and answered honestly, "Of course the Ministry of Revenue is good. People say that the Ministry of Revenue is rich. All the money used in the court must go through the Ministry of Revenue. My lord, the Ministry of Revenue is indeed a good place."

Zhou Shuren was satisfied, "As long as you think the Ministry of Revenue is good."

Wang Ju, "......."

What does the Ministry of Revenue have to do with him? It’s not like he became the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue!

The map has been changed. I have been laying the groundwork recently and writing slowly. Finally, the map has been changed and Yangyang doesn’t have to comb his hair anymore~~~~~

Finally, ahem, this is my first time writing classical Chinese, so there are many deficiencies, and my homework may not be enough. Thank you for your support and tolerance along the way. Yangyang will continue to work hard. Come on~~~~
