Nowadays, every day of attending court is torture for most officials. This is an unprecedented moment in the Great Zhou Empire. There are two emperors sitting in the court. Unless those who have clearly stood on the side, anyone else needs to think about it if they want to speak.

What will I give you the impression of what I want to say? Should I stand on the emperor or on the side of the Supreme Emperor?

Everyone must be careful, fearing that they will become cannon fodder.

Today is no exception. When I went to court, many officials who were familiar with each other talked and laughed, but today I looked serious.

In fact, many officials are unwilling to come to court and want to be sick at home. But unless you are at the level of the six ministries or above, you do not even have the qualifications to be sick at home.

"Mr. Angry Lang!"

"Hello, Ao Langhou!"

After seeing Ao Yu come in, a group of people came up to say hello with a friendly expression. These people have clearly stated that they are taking sides. The officials who have already criticized the lords yesterday will of course come to please Ao Yu, because this is the first powerful minister in the future.

Ao Yu also fully enjoyed the treatment of a boss, and people asked him to the court. Although he was just a fifth-rank cabinet minister, and to be precise, he was the secretary of Prime Minister Wu Zhi, who didn’t know that this young Lu Lang Hou was the first confidant of the Supreme Emperor.

Ao Yu was also very intimate and bowed to greet each other. Whether they knew each other or not, they all stepped forward to hold the other person's arm, and looked like a close friend, saying that I value you very much and I have already remembered you.

After saying hello, Yun Zhonghe came to the Minister of Personnel and said, "Heavenly Official."

Xu Tianfang, the Minister of Personnel, held Ao Yu's arm affectionately and said, "Hello, Mr. Nulang, you call me that, isn't you a stranger?"

Yun Zhonghe said: "Hello, Mr. Xu."

Before, Ao Yu grabbed the arms of those officials and expressed his intimacy. Now it was the turn of the boss to grab the arms, and this role was changed very naturally.

Then, Yun Zhonghe bowed to Prime Minister Wu Zhi and said, "Hello, Prince Wu."

"Hello, Ao Yu." The Prime Minister said it by his name, after all, Ao Yu was nominally his secretary.

"Hello, Master Zhou." Yun Zhonghe saluted another boss again.

This person is Duke Lian, the deputy envoy of the Left Privy Council of the Great Zhou Empire. It is said that this person is very destined to be Yun Zhonghe.

At that time, the rebellion in the southern border was implicated in Ao Xin. The entire Ao Yu clan was arrested and entered Beijing. The Duke of Zhou Lian was the imperial envoy, and he personally arrested Ao Yu's family.

However, on the way, Ao Yu urgently asked to see the Duke of Zhou Lian and asked Duke of Zhou Lian to tell the emperor that Ao Yu had a plan to quell the rebellion in the southern border. At that time, Duke of Zhou Lian could not accept this matter at all, but he still rushed to send Ao Yu to see the emperor.

In this matter, Yun Zhonghe must respect the character of this Duke Zhou Lian.

Afterwards, the Duke of Zhou Lian went to the western border to serve as the Grand Governor of Zhenxi, preparing to resist the possible invasion of the Grand Governor of the Western Empire. After all, the Grand Governor of Zhou seemed to be in full swing at that time.

As a result, the rebellion in the southern border was quickly quelled, but Duke Lian of Zhou was still in the western border.

Four months ago, Li Zhou, the Crown Prince of the Great Western Empire, led an army of 300,000 to attack Roulan Kingdom, but was burned completely by a fire, and the western border was completely restless.

As the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, Duke Zhou Lian had to return to the court, and at this point he became the mainstay of supporting the Supreme Emperor's tutoring.

But there is also a bad news, that is, Ao Ming's father Ao Dong was promoted.

Ao Dong is a cold and sharp person, although he is not as prominent as Ao Xin, and the two brothers do not deal with each other. He has served as the governor of Xikang Province for many years, so it was not easy to be promoted.

However, because Ao Xin and Ao Yu completely offended the emperor, the emperor had previously conferred the title of Noorang Marquis to Ao Dong.

After Duke Lian of Zhou left the Western Territory, the court needed to enthrone a new governor. Because of the emperor's favor, Aodong became the new governor of Zhenxi.

It was the governor, not the Grand Governor. After Duke Lian of Zhou left, the governor's office in Zhenxi was demoted to one level. But now Aodong is also the number one general of the Western Army, and has been steadily promoted to one level.

Prime Minister Wu Zhi said: "Duke Xu, there are too many things happening during this period, and many positions are empty and there is no time to fill it. The two positions of Dali Temple Minister and Censor Zhongcheng are crucial. As the Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Personnel, there is someone in your heart to choose."

Xu Tianfang, the Minister of Personnel, smiled and said, "Mr. Nulang, are you someone who chooses?"

Yun Zhonghe said: "The lower official is only a fifth-rank official. These two are third-rank officials, and they are key positions in the court. How dare I speak randomly?"

Although he said this, there was already someone in his heart. The Dali Temple Minister was in charge of the prison. If he wanted to harm others, he would have to take down this official position.

Not to mention the Censor Zhongcheng, it is specially used to criticize people and fight in the court. Yun Zhonghe was a cabinet minister at this time, so he was not easy to criticize many things.

The best candidate for the Censor Zhongcheng is of course the examiner of the foreign country examination and the chief examiner Yu Zheng.

This man was slandered and bribed by the old beast Ao Ting, and has been dismissed from office and is now at home.

This man was righteous and strong. He was the Chief Censor before, but he was too straightforward and his official position became smaller and smaller.

It would be perfect to get him to serve as the Chief Censor again.

As for the Dali Temple Minister, Yun Zhonghe wanted to ask his teacher Zhu Lantian to come out of the mountain, but it was indeed not suitable. Lord Zhu Lantian was already the Minister of Rites many years ago and almost entered the cabinet to be the prime minister. However, he was framed by Lin Gong and went to Tianyi Academy to be the chief of the mountain.

But he was also a glorious and decent retirement, a first-rank official. If you rehire, you will be a third-rank Dali Temple Minister, which is not suitable. It is best to get one of the six ministers and then let the teacher Zhu Lantian fill it up.

Our little powerful minister Ao Yu is really ambitious. Just a fifth-rank official is going to manipulate the replacement of first-rank officials.

A figure walked in outside, and several people stopped talking.

Ao Yu quickly went out to support him because Prince Liang, the only remaining ancestor of the Great Zhou court, came.

Yun Zhonghe supported Prince Lao Liang like a like, and said, "It's a great sect, you don't need to go to court every day. When will I go to your house to report."

Wu Zhi and Xu Tianfang stepped forward and bowed to salute, and Duke Lian of Zhou even supported Prince Lao Liang on the other side.

"I can't stay idle, I can't stay idle." Prince Liang said: "Thirty years ago, when I was doing this sect, it was not very sensible. I fished for three days and dried the net for two days, and I often didn't come to court. Now I'm old and feel bored at home. It's better to come to court to relieve boredom..."

Then, several giants of the Supreme Emperor Party helped Prince Lao Liang to his seat and sat down.

"It's good to doubt." The Supreme Emperor smiled and said, "This is a secret report from Jiangzhou. Nangong Jiu, the admiral of Canglang Province in Hei Bingtai, found out clearly. He also brought the five candidates to Beijing. Why don't we ask, what's going on?"

A moment later, the scholars who framed Lord Yu Zheng were brought to the court.

Several people were trembling, almost urinating, and immediately confessed everything.

The evidence from all aspects is clear on how they framed Lord Yu Zheng and how they framed him.

When Hei Bingtai works, he will definitely thoroughly investigate the link of evidence. He said that this case is too obvious. Yu Zheng received bribes of 5,000 taels? Isn’t this nonsense?

If Yu Zheng was willing to accept bribes, he would have been one of the six ministers of the ministers, or the governor of the province.

Moreover, when those people framed Yu Zheng, they were too confident.

Before, no one in the court spoke for Yu Zheng, and of course he would never be innocent. Now that Ao Yu has become a new nobleman in the court, how could he let the master suffer injustice?

Moreover, the case of the Hei Bingtai has been investigated clearly for a long time, but it is just whether to take it out. Now that Ao Yu has become a new noble in the court, Hei Bingtai has taken out the case file.

The Supreme Emperor waved his hand and deprived the scholars of their fame and fortune, and was not allowed to be hired for life, and was exiled for three thousand miles.

"The truth is revealed now. Yu Zheng is innocent. Why was he framed? It is because he offended too many people and was too upright. Such a person is suitable for the position of the Censor Zhongcheng. If the king has a loyal minister, he will not destroy the country." The Supreme Emperor said: "I think Yu Zheng is still very suitable for the Censor Zhongcheng, but the court is indeed a little sorry for him. After going around for more than ten years, he has returned to this position."

Then, the Supreme Emperor asked, "Emperor, what do you think?"

Emperor Wan Yun said, "My son asks the Supreme Emperor to make a decision."

The Supreme Emperor said politely: "I have drawn up an order and asked Yu Zheng to be the right chief of the Censorate. If this Yu Zheng is not in Beijing, please call him over quickly."

Half an hour later, Yu Zheng appeared in the court and put on the official uniform of the Censor Zhongcheng on the spot.

Suddenly, his heart was thrilled. How many years have he been wearing this official uniform again?

In fact, Lord Yu Zheng never thought of taking charge of the six ministries, nor did he think of joining the cabinet. His highest goal in his life was the Censor.

But because he was too straightforward, he became smaller and smaller, and he was eventually demoted to a commoner.

He really never expected that one day he would return to the court, and that his former student would become his backer in the court. This was the first time that Lord Yu Zheng felt the feeling of someone in the court.

Lord Yu Zheng couldn't help but look in Ao Yu. Unfortunately, another student, Su Mang, was gone, otherwise this would be the time for him to show his talents.

After putting on the official uniform, Lord Yu Zheng's desire to fight was immediately bursting out. How many years of reluctance have you accumulated? Is this sword still sharp? Can you still drink blood?

The Supreme Emperor said: "Yu Zheng, you go back to your Censorate first. If you have anything to report, wait until this item is finished."

Yu Zheng said: "I obey the order."

Then, he was murderous and returned to the ranks of the Censorate.

The Emperor said: "The position of the Censor Zhongcheng has found the most suitable candidate. What about the Dali Temple Minister? Does the Ministry of Personnel have recommended candidates?"

At this time, Xu Tianfang, the Minister of Personnel, had no time to speak, because there were two ministers below, and he, the chief official of the Ministry of Personnel, could not be too ugly to look at.

Suddenly, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel said, "The Supreme Emperor, Your Majesty, I recommend the Shaoqing of Dali Temple and Zhang Wenchang."

The right assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel said: "The Supreme Emperor, Your Majesty, I recommend Min Jinyuan, the prefect of Bozhou."

As expected, the position of the Dali Temple Minister began to compete for, and the two ministers of the Ministry of Personnel recommended different candidates. Xu Tianfang's face suddenly became a little unfair. The candidate of the Dali Temple Minister could not even be unified in the Ministry of Personnel. Doesn't it seem that Xu Tianfang is incompetent?

But there is no way. The Right Minister of Personnel supported the Supreme Emperor, and the Left Minister was Lin Gong's party, who supported the emperor.

In the position of the Censor Central Chief, the emperor actually knew that no one could compete with each other. His innocence could be easily proved. His qualifications were too old. Not to mention the Censor Central Chief, even if he was a Censor Central Chief.

But this Dali Temple Minister must not be allowed to be given up. Zhang Wenchang, the young minister of Dali Temple, was originally the second-in-command of Dali Temple, so it is normal to make up for it.

Min Jinyuan is also one of Ao Yu's teachers. At that time, he was the deputy chief examiner of the Canglang Provincial Country Examination. He was originally a Beijing official. After serving as the deputy chief examiner of Canglang Province, he made contributions in handling the so-called fraud case and was promoted to the prefect of Bozhou. He was a fourth-rank official, and it was indeed very difficult to directly be promoted to the Dali Temple Minister.

Next, the two factions quarreled with each other and quarreled with the position of Dali Temple Minister.

Finally, Xu Tianfang, Minister of Personnel, said: "Since that is the case, it is better to let the former Dali Temple Shaoqing Zhang Wenchang be promoted to the Dali Temple Minister, and the prefect of Bozhou Min Jinyuan be promoted to the Dali Temple Shaoqing."

As soon as these words came out, both sides became quiet.

The Supreme Emperor said: "Xu Tianfang is Lao Cheng's words for the country. What do you think, Emperor?"

The emperor said: "My son asks the Supreme Emperor to make a decision."

Your Majesty, do you know this? Are you a repeater?

However, in this battle for the Dali Temple Minister, the emperor did not fall into a disadvantage, at least he won the position of the Dali Temple Minister.
