Chapter 1229: Minister of Rites

Xu Jie carefully examined King Jing's expression and did not see any flaws. In fact, this is King Jing's true performance. He was originally a violent person, but now he was familiar with the violent scenes, but this confused Xu Jie.

"Your Highness, not to mention the first and third assassination that Luo Xin suffered, it was the second assassination. How could it be so easy to get such a large amount of gunpowder in the Ming Dynasty? It's not that all officials doubt Your Highness."

"You also doubt orphan?" King Jing glared at Xu Jie angrily.

"This is not something I doubt or not, but others can't get so much gunpowder, Your Highness."

Xu Jie stood up and lowered his voice and said, "Now all rumors point to Your Highness, all the officials are also staring at Your Highness, and the Three Laws also point the direction of investigation to Your Highness. Today, your Highness gave the old minister an accurate statement. Is it your Highness doing? If it is really your Highness doing it, I will definitely cover it up for Your Highness and leave no traces to others."

"Here, it's true! Mr. He is as expected." King Jing said in his heart. At this time, he was so impressed by He Xinyin that he was so arrogant, but he also hated Xu Jie in his heart:

"I really want to find evidence from me. If it weren't for Mr. He, I would have really been fooled by you."

At this time, King Jing was also possessed by the actor. His face showed an angry and sad expression, looking at Xu Jie and said:

"Sir Xu, do you also doubt orphan?"

"It's not that the old minister suspects Your Highness, but that the old minister is afraid that this is really what Your Highness does. The old minister wants to cover up this matter."

"It's not what the orphan did. Gu wanted Luo Xin to die, but Gu still disdained to do this. Since they said it was what the orphan did, Master Xu asked them for evidence. Without evidence, Gu could not allow them to frame the orphan."

Xu Jie finally left Prince Jing's Mansion in a daze. His back was hunched over, and he felt like he was trapped in a quagmire.

Luo Mansion.

Xiao Luo Yu and Luo Xin were tired of playing and were already coaxed to sleep by Dai'er. Luo Xin looked at the pepper in front of him, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.

"We should build a greenhouse! But the greenhouse needs glass! How did the glass burn out?"

While walking towards the study, Luo Xin recalled that his memory of burning glass was a little blurry, and he didn't know the specific procedures, but probably he still knew it. While idle, Luo Xin took a carriage and took Lu Daqing and Wan Daquan to his own village outside the city.

In the village outside the city, there was a firing kiln to make some porcelain. Luo Xin called several craftsmen and told them the procedures he remembered, and then asked the craftsmen to try it. Looking at the backs of the craftsmen leaving, Luo Xin slapped his forehead suddenly.

"Why did I forget Sharon? Daqing!"

"Marty!" Lu Daqing trotted over.

"You go home and invite Sharon."

"Yes, Marquis!"

In about half an hour, Lu Daqing and Sharon arrived at Zhuangzi. Before Luo Xin could speak, Lu Daqing stepped forward and said:

"Marty, the emperor sent someone to find you."

"oh?"

At this time, Luo Xin saw that there was another eunuch behind Lu Daqing. When the eunuch saw Luo Xinwang coming, he stepped forward and bowed with a smile:

"I've met Lord Luo."

"So it's Eunuch Zhang, please come in and ask."

"Mr. Luo, our family will not go in. Your Majesty is waiting to see you."

"What can you know about my father-in-law?"

Eunuch Zhang shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"How is your Majesty feeling?"

"fine!"

Luo Xin nodded and said, "Daqing, take Eunuch Zhang to rest first. Eunuch Zhang, I will prepare for it, and we will leave."

"Hey, then hurry up."

"Eunuch Zhang, please come here."

Lu Daqing stuffed a ingot of silver into Eunuch Zhang's hand without a trace. Eunuch Zhang was also skillfully put into her sleeves, but her expression was still a little embarrassed and looked at Luo Xin and said:

"Mr. Luo, please hurry up."

"Well, I know, I'll come when I go."

Then he turned to Siron and said, "Speak as he walked."

"good!"

Sharon said excitedly that he had lived in Luo Mansion these days, and he knew that if he wanted to get the beginning of his mission in the Ming Dynasty, the key was on Luo Xin. As long as he obtained Luo Xin's support, he could get the beginning.

However, these days, Luo Xin threw him in the Luo Mansion and never went to find him. He knew in his heart that without giving, there would be no gain. So, this time Luo Xin asked him for help, he was really happy.

"Mr. Sir, can you make glass?"

"Although I haven't made it myself, I know all the process of making glass."

"Then can you help my craftsmen to refine glass?"

"It's totally OK."

"Yeah!" Luo Xin thought for a moment and said, "I wonder how transparent the glass you made there is? Can it be completely transparent?"

"Totally transparent? Can't do it."

"Then study it more, I need completely transparent glass."

Sirlo frowned, but finally nodded and said, "Okay."

Luo Xin brought Sharon to the firing kiln and called out a dozen craftsmen. He introduced Sharon to the craftsmen, then left the firing kiln and followed the eunuch to the palace again.

When he entered the palace, he saw Emperor Jiajing having dinner. Emperor Jiajing said to Luo Xin:

"Have you eaten?"

"No! I went to the village outside the city, and when I heard that His Majesty summoned him, I rushed back in a hurry."

"Then sit down and eat with me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Luo Xin was not polite, and he was indeed hungry. Luo Xin ate very quickly, but it made people feel that he was eating voraciously. Instead, he was very elegant. During the meal, Emperor Jiajing and Emperor Luo Xin did not speak anymore. After dinner, Emperor Jiajing and Emperor Luo Xin held a cup of tea. Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Xin and said:

"Do you know why I asked you to come?"

"I don't know." Luo Xin shook his head honestly.

Emperor Jiajing was silent and said for a while: "I really know that you don't like heavy work, so you can go and be the Minister of Rites."

Luo Xin's expression was stunned. He did not expect that Emperor Jiajing summoned him this time to promote his official position. You must know that he wiped out 80,000 Goryeo, and Emperor Jiajing did not promote him, but promoted his third-class marquis to the second-class marquis.

But why did he suddenly get promoted to him now?

And he also took care of him not like heavy and noble life, and gave him an official position as the Minister of Rites?

The Ministry of Rites was a very important yamen in the Ming Dynasty. Most of the cabinet's chief and secondary assistants went out of the Ministry of Rites, so the Ministry of Rites is the cradle of the cabinet.

What is the official position of the Minister of Rites?

That is the deputy chief of the Ministry of Rites!

What is the grade of the Minister of Rites?

That's the third grade.

In other words, Luo Xin suddenly jumped from the fourth rank to the third rank. The third rank has already entered the senior executive sequence and is no longer a mid-level official who can be controlled by others.

But, why is this?

Why did Emperor Jiajing suddenly promote him?
