Night falls. Although night falls later at the turn of spring and summer, the lights have already lit up in Xu Mansion in advance, and lanterns are hung on the door, front yard and inner house.

A sedan that looked very ordinary slowly fell down the front yard, and what emerged from it was Xu Jie, the chief assistant of the dynasty, who was kind-hearted and kind-hearted old man.

"Dad, you are back. I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Xu Fan waited here for a long time, and saw Xu Jie coming out of the sedan chair, he immediately greeted him and said hello.

However, Xu Jie did not like this rough son, but greeted the two officials in the seventh-rank official uniforms behind Xu Fan and said gently: "Ruoyu, Si Zhi, are you two here?"

Following Xu Fan is the current limelight Nanjing Censor Lin Run and the Zhongke Censor Ouyang Yijing. Both of them are authentic southerners, with medium figures, but they both have good official appearances with a national face.

"Sir, please pay homage to Lord Yuanfu!" Lin Run and Ouyang Yijing immediately stepped forward and saluted respectfully together.

Ouyang Yijing was a Jinshi in the 38th year of Jiajing. He was first appointed as the magistrate of Xiaoshan. Thanks to Xu Jie's promotion, he was recalled by the court to the capital and was appointed as the Criminal Criminal Officer three years later.

In the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, there was a special group. Their ranks were only the seventh rank and the seventh rank, but they were responsible for admonishing and supervising all officials, and their authority was quite great.

Even if the officials in the border areas and the officials in the court have made mistakes, they can also submit memorials and impeachments and bear the responsibility of picking up all the officials.

But today, the censor of Kedao has become the most important weapon for the party to fight against differences. For example, this time, Lin Runfa initiated the impeachment, and Xu Jie promoted the development of things behind the scenes, and finally completely solved Yan Song and his son.

"No need to be polite, let's sit in there! Are the food ready?" Xu Jie waved his hand gently, and asked Xu Fan who was standing next to him.

Xu Fan had already been called by his father and went there immediately, and immediately responded: "Dad, the food is ready!"

Not to mention that today is the banquet that Xu Jie personally told, even if Xu Jie comes back at this time, the kitchen will prepare meals in advance. The Xu family will naturally not care about this expense.

"You can sit with Ruoyu and Si until the dining room for a while, and I will change my clothes and come!" Xu Jie gave Xu Fan a command, and nodded gently to Lin Run and Ouyang Yijing.

Lin Run and Ouyang Yijing seemed flattered. In particular, Lin Run was just the supervisory censor in Nanjing, and his status was actually not much higher than that of the supervisory censor in the Thirteen Provinces.

I wouldn’t be too comfortable to accompany the prime minister of the dynasty to have a meal. After dinner, I went to the study to use tea. Although guests were already coming to my house at this time, Xu Jie asked me to wait in the living room.

Xu Jie served as a long-term teacher in the Hanlin Academy and seemed very talkative. He talked with the two about their personal future plans and encouraged them to be bold and speak out in the position of censors.

Lin Run was disappointed, but his years of official career made him know that many emotions could not be expressed on his face, even if the prime minister in front of him wanted to kill the donkey.

Before leaving, Xu Jie suddenly called Lin Run and said, "Yan Shifan was able to commit suicide this time, all thanks to Ruoyu! I have already sub-committed the Ministry of Personnel and suggested that the Ministry of Personnel promote you to the Left Senate of the Tongzhengsi, Nanjing, as appropriate.

”

The promotion from Nanjing Supervisory Censor to the fifth rank of Nanjing Tongzhengsi Left Senator is already a "big promotion".

The usually destination of the Censor is the governor of the thirteen provinces to participate in politics. Although the official position is of no real power, it is classified as "foreign officials".

On the contrary, although the left Senator of the Tongzhengsi Department of Nanjing was not of high rank, he was still a "Beijing official".

If he had no connections, he would naturally be a retirement in Nanjing, but he had now embraced Xu Jie's thigh. As long as he had enough qualifications in Nanjing, he could also serve as the governor of the local government like Zhang Wei. This is the most glorious censor.

the promotion path.

"Thank you, Lord Yuanfu for your promotion!" Lin Run's eyes lit up immediately, and he bowed with excitement.

Xu Jie was very satisfied that Lin Run was not proud of his contributions, so he made a promise again: "You should work in Nanjing with peace of mind. When the time is right, I will propose to the court!"

"Thank you, Lord Yuanfu, for your cultivation!" Lin Run looked moved and gave a half-worship.

Cheng Shoujie saw Lin Junran soaring, but his eyes flashed with envy and jealousy. He is now a minister of justice, and his identity is far above the Nanjing Censor's Censor, but he just gave this gentleman the first to be promoted.

Just as he was about to leave, he was stunned and a light flashed through his eyes. Since Lin Run was going to be promoted to the left Senate of Nanjing, it turns out that Mr. Xu’s words tonight were encouraged by him!

Xu Fan looked at the two of them leaving and suggested with a look of ecstasy: "Dad, let's try harder, we will definitely make Old Man Yan...!" As he said that, he gestured to wipe his neck.

Xu Jie reached out and picked up the teacup, but glared at Xu Fan! He also wanted to push Yan Song to the guillotine, but Yan Song had more than 20 years of friendship with the emperor. If Yan Song was not old, this

The throne of the chief minister is still not as good as Xu Jie.

Besides, if he insisted on pushing Yan Song to the guillotine, Lei Li, a large group of officials who received Yan Song's favor, would not stand by and even jumped out and complained about Yan Shifan's affairs.

Xu Jie did not point out this unforgivable thing, but responded in a tone with no room for negotiation: "Now the matter of the Yan family can be put aside!"

"Why?" Xu Fan asked back as if he had been poured with a basin of cold water.

Xu Jie took a sip of tea, looked towards the Wu Mansion and said, "It's time for us to treat him!"

In the last open confrontation at Ziguang Pavilion, he re-recognized that Wu Shan, a person who really bites people and doesn't bark.

Although Wu Shan stood up to protect Lin Qi, it also proved that he did have an influence that should not be underestimated, which made no one under him dare to challenge Wu Shan directly.

With the lessons of Xia Yan and Yan Song, once Wu Shan or Lin Qingran gets his braided hair, he, the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty, will become a stepping stone for Wu Shan.

"Dad, Wu Yuejing has not even entered the cabinet yet. Shouldn't you beware of Yuan Wei first?" Xu Fan asked in confusion when he guessed that his father was referring to Wu Shan.

Xu Jie snorted coldly between his nose and said confidently: "Yuan Wei is no longer worth worrying!"

"Why is this?" Xu Fan asked even more confused when he heard the answer.
