Chapter six hundred and eighty take office
The Secretariat is located west of Wucheng Hall of Luoyang Palace, next to the History Museum and the former Lizheng Xiu Academy. However, now Lizheng Academy has been changed to Jixian Hall, and the bachelor's direct bachelor's degree will naturally be changed, no longer the people they used to be. As the first day Du Shiyi, as a clerk in the Central Secretariat, was also the first time to face Zhang Jiuling, the last famous prime minister of Kaiyuan in the legend.
Although he had not seen each other before, most of them met from a distance at the court meeting and had almost never spoken much. Zhang Jiuling, who was in his early fifties, looked elegant and elegant. Although he was over 20 years older than Du Shiyi and had a deeper qualification, it can be seen that Du Shiyi bowed and greeted him solemnly, and he asked Du Shiyi to change his title from Zhang Shaojian to Zishou Brother, and he spoke in a tribute to him, making him call him natural.
Most of the time, there was only one person who specialized in the emperor's imperial edicts, who specialized in the appointment and removal of confidential high-ranking officials, including the prime minister to various high-ranking officials, and orders for conquests and other important edicts. However, the other Zhongshu Tanzans were in charge of miscellaneous affairs, as the cabinet elders, and the other person knew about edicts. The edicts were written on white hemp paper, and the edicts were written on jute paper. In a common saying in the palace, it was the difference between white and yellow, and the difference between high and low.
After nearly a year of wasting Zhang Jiuling went to Beijing to become a secretary and a junior secretary last year, he had just been appointed as the secretary and a junior secretary, and was appointed as the deputy magistrate of Jixian Palace. The emperor's sudden favor and love for him surprised those who once suppressed him. What's even more surprising is that Li Longji called Du Shiyi back to work with him.
Du Shiyi could clearly notice the surprise of everyone when he looked at this strange pattern from the eunuchs, to the prime minister and minister, etc., and he could feel it, and Zhang Jiuling had no reason to not be able to detect it.
At this moment, the two sat opposite each other in front of the imperial court, and each drafted two books and prepared them for Li Longji to read them. Zhang Jiuling was famous for his words without thinking, and it was effortless to make a book and prose. Although Du Shiyi has no longer shown his strength in the literary world in recent years, fortunately, he has not put down his book and learned a lot, and recorded some notes and entertainment in every few days. Finally, the work on the first day was not bad. Otherwise, if Xiao Song was summoned to draft a book at night, he would not have to meet anyone after the third chapter.
Unlike what others think, Zhizhiyi only needs to take turns to guard the emperor's call, but in fact, there are not many books that need to be drafted every day, and it is even more leisurely than those Zhongshushusans who are aware of the imperial edict. Compared with the large bureaucratic group of middle and lower levels, the senior prime minister, the Minister of the Secretariat, General, and these officials of the fifth or even above ranks and third ranks were originally very few. Therefore, because Zhang Jiuling was also a deputy magistrate in Jixian Hall, he temporarily bid farewell to Du Shiyi at the gate of the Secretariat and went straight into Jixian Hall, while Du Shiyi returned to the Secretariat to meet Xiao Song.
It was completely different from when he was a left-handed edict in Menxia Province and a right-handed edict in the Secretariat. As the Zhongshu Sheren who was the master of edicts, he had an independent straight house. Although the area was not large, in the huge Secretariat, except for the Zhongshu Ling and the Secretariat and the Right Censor, only the Zhongshu Sheren had such privileges. Now Xiao Song is the Zhongshu Ling, and the Zhongshu Sheren is vacant. The Right Censor is a false position with a higher name than the real power. He was the first person in the Zhongshu Sheren who knew edicts. After the court meeting today, the two people who were of the age could be worshipped by his father, and the eyes flashed with inexplicable meaning when they saw him.
"Jun Li, now that Changkuan has gone to the Censorate, there is no capable person around me. You and Changkuan have always had a good relationship, so I will treat you as your right-hand man."
In front of Du Shiyi, Xiao Song was heartbroken. Under his eager gaze, Du Shiyi happily replied with a greeting.
"The prime minister has outstanding military achievements, outstanding abilities, and wise men, and has the ability to be magnanimous and respectful to others for a long time. He should do his best."
After hearing these short words of flattery, Xiao Song was immediately overjoyed. He was born with a prominent background, but his literary talent was indeed mediocre. Whether it was war or employment, he was indeed keen that others could not achieve.
Pei Kuan went to Helong to serve as a judge. He was victorious and returned to the court and became the prime minister. He immediately asked to recommend Pei Kuan as the Minister of the Secretariat. When he was in Helong, Niu Xianke, the judge who was once valued by Wang Junyuan, was entrusted with important tasks and saw that he was indeed a talent for governing affairs. After returning to the court, he ignored the matter and repeatedly recommended it. Niu Xianke was promoted from a sub-judge to a governor of Hexi, but this was such a bold employment, which made Helong stable now, with full granaries and sufficient military equipment. The people who opposed it at the time now had nothing to say. Therefore, identifying people and employing people is Xiao Song's most proud itch.
"Okay" Xiao Song's most worried thing is that Pei Guangting has to compete with him everywhere, but Pei Kuan's transfer to the Censorate can give him a certain advantage among censors. Now that Du Shiyi has expressed his opinion, he can trust him from his usual character. Therefore, he said more and more kindly, "I regret it very much about Yuan Weng Nian. Whether Yuan Weng or Guangping County Duke, I trust you very much and expect you. Now I am the same with you. Because of Yuwen Rong's affairs, you were almost plotted against me. I also missed this matter. Jun Li, I was wronged at that time."
As a famous family, Xiao Song was willing to compensate like this, and Du Shiyi was also a little surprised. Now, he had to pay attention to Zhang Jiuling's reaction on the spot, and secretly wanted to compete with Li Linfu, the Minister of Personnel who is now backed by Pei Guangting and Wu Huifei in the palace, and is increasingly not to be underestimated. Therefore, he would not forget the purpose of relying on a big tree to enjoy the shade. Therefore, he immediately smiled bitterly and said, "The things that happened back then were in a time. Although Yuwen Rong and I have been with us for many years, to be fair, he did have a deserved crime, so Xiao Prime Minister said this severely. However, Mrs. Yuwen once proposed to ask his eldest son to worship my disciple, which made me in a dilemma."
"Oh?" Xiao Song's eyes lit up, and then nodded repeatedly, "Yuwen Dalang has been traveling thousands of miles for his father, but he is really the most filial. Such a pure filial son, you are a sincere gentleman like you, and Yuwen Rong will definitely feel at ease in the nine springs. If you are worried about the discussion, then there is no need. Your Majesty has already posthumously awarded him as the governor of Taizhou, not to mention that everyone will die and everything will disappear. Who is still holding on to him, it is just that he is too scrupulous."
This undoubtedly refers to Pei Guangting. Du Shiyi smiled in his heart, but he showed a deep expression of thanking him. When he left Xiao Song, he breathed a sigh of relief. After returning to his straight room, he called two clerks and four clerks to him. Although it had been five years since then, he was surprised to find that there was a familiar face he had seen when he was serving as the Youkuoku in the Secretariat.
All the officials from the three provinces and six ministries have staff, and these people are on a road of heaven compared to the officials from local prefectures and counties. As long as the officials like it, they can easily choose a good official when they are in the flow. Therefore, in front of those officials who are very popular, there are always people who want to go up to them.
At this moment, after the six people signed up to meet, he asked about his hometown and qualifications one by one, and then quickly referred to the hometowns of these officials who are currently working in the three provinces and six ministries, and then left behind the only familiar old Lingshi who was fifty years old.
"I remember that I was a foreigner before. It is said that you have completed the exam and will soon be transferred to the post of the subordinate. How could you still be in Ren Lingshi?"
The old Lingshi was named Lin, named Yongmo, and has been working in the Secretariat. He has been promoted from Zhanggu to Lingshi for 16 years. He heard Du Shiyi ask this, and he immediately said with a sad face: "Someone has followed the path of the Ministry of Personnel Li and squeezed me down. And I hate the Ministry of Personnel Li for some reason. He said that with such talent and equipment, I would not think about it. So after thinking about it, I decided to stay in the Secretariat for a few more years. When the Ministry of Personnel Li was transferred, it would not be too late to ask the Ministry of Personnel to record the matter."
Just looking at Lin Yongmo would rather wait and let Li Linfu go away, you can understand that for the officials who are in the air, the beauty of the subordinates and provincial officials is a dream. Du Shiyi really wants to tell this old official that Li Linfu is vindictive and will use various methods to control the Ministry of Personnel even if he leaves. Instead of waiting, it is better to ask for another one first. But seeing Lin Yongmo's unwilling look, he finally said, "You will be the leader of the six people below me. As long as you work diligently, I will try to do something for you. But, no news is allowed to be revealed."
"Yes, yes, thank you Zhongshu, thank you Zhongshu"
After Lin Yongmo retreated, Du Shiyi remembered the case mentioned by Wang Jin, and looked at the experience of a mere minor official at Lin Yongmo, and his face gradually became gloomy. If Li Linfu really allowed to control the power and control officials to be promoted and demoted, don't say that Li Linfu would control the fate of more people, even himself, how could he know that he would not control it?
"Li Linfu..."
"The saint gave ice cheese"
The sudden sound from outside made Du Shiyi, who had been dazed for a while, come back to his senses. In a moment, Lin Yongmo turned around and led an eunuch in. The eunuch was holding a plate in his hand, with a bowl of ice cheese on his head, and his face was filled with smiles. He bent down before Du Shiyi and said, "It's getting hotter and warmer, Your Majesty is sympathetic to all the hard work of the Secretary of the Central Committee, so he awards ice cheese."
Such a gift was just a long bow and thanking Que, so after Du Shiyi thanked him, he took the thing. However, what he didn't expect was that after the person withdrew, he casually picked up the ice cheese and saw that there were a neatly stacked note below.
At this moment, he felt a sudden heart. Thinking of the past, he was about to call in and question it immediately, but he thought that today was his first day to take office. He finally endured it and quietly spread the note, but saw that the top of him wrote a few sentences in small fly heads.
