Chapter 232 The Odds and Evens Draw



Gong Qijun smiled and said, "Sir, would you be interested in working for the Ministry of Works?"

Nanzhi: So you're trying to steal someone's partner.

Nan Zhi said apologetically, "Thank you for your kindness, sir, but I am already working in the Ministry of Revenue."

Gong Qijun regretted not discovering such a talent sooner.

Although the Nanjing University graduate held a high official rank, it did not prevent him from recruiting people to the Ministry of Works.

"In this way, you don't need to leave the Ministry of Revenue; you can still work in the Ministry of Works."

Fearing that Namgyal might disagree, he added another note.

"You don't need to come every day, just once every other day, how about that?"

Nanzhi thought about it and agreed.

There's nothing major going on at the Ministry of Revenue right now, so I might as well go check on the Ministry of Works.

“Of course,” Nan Zhi immediately agreed.

The next day, the Ministry of Revenue launched a campaign to overthrow the Ministry of Works.

The Minister of Revenue was so angry he jumped up and down.

That old scoundrel, the Minister of Works, actually took advantage of his inattention and dragged Lord Nan away.

"My lord, what should we do now?" Zheng Yongning was worried.

It's gotten to the point where people spit on it even when they're just passing by.

The two sides were arguing fiercely, and the matter reached the emperor's ears.

After Eunuch Cao explained the whole story, the emperor slammed his fist on the table and laughed for a long time.

Look, back then, these people were the biggest obstacle to him, preventing him from appointing female officials.

Now, everyone is fighting tooth and nail for the southern branch.

"I have excellent judgment. When I first saw her, I knew it would work out."

Eunuch Cao looked up and glanced at the emperor.

Your Majesty, when you appointed Lord Nan, you drew lots to determine whether it was an odd or even number.

Eunuch Cao still remembers that the Emperor took out a die that day.

He closed his eyes and muttered something to himself.

"A single reward will be given, but no reward will be given for two people. My ancestors, we are counting on you."

The result was an odd number.

That's why they risked appointing Nan Daren as an official.
