A few days later, the imperial court announced a new personnel appointment.

Yuan Youren resigned from the post of Salt Patrol Censor and became the Right Minister of the Ministry of War. In addition, he selected capable ministers to serve as Salt Patrol Censor.

Lord Qian, the Minister of Rites, was appointed to the cabinet, but Lord Qiu, the imperial censor of Zuodu, was not elected.

As soon as the news came out, everyone inside and outside the court showed shocked faces.

What? A man named Yuan was appointed as the right minister of the Ministry of War? What a joke. Cui Daqi was appointed as the censor of the Salt Patrol. Cui Daqi was Yuan Youren’s lackey. He was the first civil servant to take refuge with Yuan Youren. A villain who was known as the shame of civil servants actually served as the patrol officer.

Salt Censor.

What kind of stupid decision is this?

The country will not be a country!

What? Mr. Qiu, the censor of Zuodu, was defeated. Mr. Qian, the Minister of Etiquette, failed to win the election, and he missed the cabinet again. Well, this matter has two sides, and it cannot be simply judged as winning or losing. Mr. Qian is loyal to the emperor and the country.

If you have enough qualifications and diplomas, joining the cabinet is a matter of course.

As for Mr. Qiu, he is still young anyway, only in his forties. He can still wait. It will not be too late to join the cabinet after he has a position in the cabinet in a few years.

What? Rumor has it that Mr. Qiu, the imperial censor of Zuodu, was furious because he lost the election, and even gave Wen Shoufu several cold looks in front of him.

Hahaha... It seems that several ministers in the imperial court are very smart about people. As for Qiu Dapao's mouth, it is right not to let him enter the cabinet. If he enters the cabinet, the cabinet will become a vegetable market, comparable to a shrew in the market

generally.

Yuan Youren did not become the center of the topic, but Mr. Qiu became the hot news. Everyone seemed to be happy to see Qiu Dapao's jokes and to see him get furious.

Mr. Qiu is about to get angry to death. His good popularity in the past was obviously an illusion, and his popularity is not as good as he thought. Everyone said that he is upright and dares to speak out. In fact, they are mocking him for being such a fool!

hehe!

A bunch of villains!

I had made good promises beforehand, but when it came to the recommendation, everything changed.

He actually lost Fatty Qian's three votes, a full three votes! If he only lost one vote, he could comfort himself that it didn't matter, it was just one vote.

Three votes, three votes in total. There was only one vote in total. After deducting his own vote and Fatty Qian's vote, there were still nine votes left. He actually lost three.

What qualifications does Fatty Qian have to be in the cabinet? Are you more eloquent than him, more talented than him, or richer than him?

What the hell!

He asked for leave for three days in a row and refused to go to the Yamen.

This incident alarmed Emperor Yuan Kang, who sent a palace servant to the Qiu Mansion to inquire about the situation. This is His Majesty's concern for his ministers!

Even though Mr. Qiu is a big talker, he still pretends to be weak when facing the visiting chamberlains from the palace.

"Master Qiu, are you feeling better? Your Majesty has not seen you for a few days, so he is very concerned about you."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am much better now. I will be able to get up and go on errands in two days."

"No rush, no rush. If you are sick, just take care of yourself for a few more days. His Majesty said that Mr. Qiu must take good care of himself and not work while sick. It doesn't matter even if he takes care of himself until the Chinese New Year. Your Majesty is so caring, so why don't you express your gratitude."

What's the meaning?

Do you want to seize his power? Or do you want to take the opportunity to find trouble?

Where is Jinwu Guard?

Mr. Qiu was suspicious and suspected that Emperor Yuankang was harboring evil intentions. When the chamberlain left, he immediately got out of bed and arranged for the housekeeper to go out to find out the news. At the same time, he invited several of his close disciples to come. He had to build momentum for himself.

He will return to the Yamen tomorrow or the day after tomorrow at the latest. No one can try to take away the power in his hands.

In the end, it was discovered that it was a false alarm, and there was no Jinwu Guard to spy on him. It was because he was overthinking. After careful analysis, Emperor Yuankang was clearly trying to beat him, and it was enough to get angry. If the trouble continued, seizing power was necessary.

There is a carrot and a pit, and there are a lot of people waiting for him to get into trouble and then he can rise up.

Mr. Qiu, the censor of Zuodu, ended his emotional days and turned to face the emperor with a cold face.

Yuan Youren was in the queue, and when he saw that face, he was furious. A minister who was lucky enough to be admitted, a male favorite, actually entered the palace and became an official in the same court. And he, after working hard for decades, could not enter the cabinet.

lord it over.

After years of hard work, it is worse than having someone sleep with you for several nights.

This world is too cruel to scholars. Mr. Qiu was so wronged that he almost cried.

…

Concubine Xu was really about to cry.

She saw it and saw Yuan Zhaoyi walking in the Imperial Garden with a big belly.

She also saw Yuan Youren, the handsome man who confused the emperor.

His Majesty has been back in Beijing for many days, but has never been to her palace. He only sent his chamberlain to pay a few words of concern.

Little Twelve is so cute, His Majesty could not bear to visit.

She has cried three times, but she still can't win a man's heart. Is it true that once a man's heart changes, it will never come back?

Obviously... I loved her so much before and regarded her as a treasure. In just a few years, things have changed. Everything has changed.

Counting the days when she was pampered, she didn't even have a fraction of Concubine Xue's favor.

Not willing to give in!

At that moment, the devil entered her heart, and she wanted to rush up and give Yuan Zhaoyi a slap in the face, and even wanted him to have an abortion.

Fortunately, there was only that moment, and the eldest maid next to her caught her in time, so she didn't make a big mistake.

After crying a few times and regrouping, she couldn't just admit defeat.

She must cheer up.

She chose her ally, Xiao Shisan's mother-in-law, Concubine Zhao Defi.

Both of them were rising stars in the palace, and both had received threats from Yuan Zhaoyi, so they should unite. She never thought that Concubine Zhao Defi would refuse.

In her opinion, as long as she takes the initiative to join forces, Concubine Zhao will happily agree and take her as the leader.

result……

Concubine Zhao De refused, actually refused.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for looking up to me. As a woman, I only want peace and quiet, and I really don't want to get into any disputes."

"Do you think that if you don't cause trouble, trouble won't come to you? Do you remember how long it has been since you saw His Majesty?"

"It should be about the same time as the imperial concubine." Concubine Zhao De smiled softly, and Concubine Xu's face turned green.

"In this cannibalistic harem, we sisters should be watching and helping each other. Why should Concubine De refuse to stay thousands of miles away?"

"What the Imperial Concubine said is, it's just that... I am very satisfied with my current life."

"you……"

It's not enough to say anything speculative.

Concubine Xu rolled her sleeves and left.

Concubine Zhao De put down her tea cup and sneered, "Impulsive, irritable, and without any self-awareness! Unless I'm crazy, I will never cooperate with her. She is just lucky to be canonized as a noble concubine by His Majesty. I want to see it.

Let's see if Yuan Zhaoyi, as a noble concubine, can continue to be arrogant after she gives birth to a child."

Concubine Xu gave up Concubine Zhao De and went to find other concubines to form an alliance.

In short, it's just one sentence, don't admit defeat.

…

Empress Zhang was spinning and weaving in Weiyang Palace. She looked very simple wearing clothes made of cloth she knitted herself. The only luxurious clothing was a wool cloak on her shoulders, which was really convenient and warm.

Several palace maids were assisting, while Li Shaojian was serving tea.

"Concubine Xu has been very hospitable recently. There are a lot of people coming and going in her palace every day."

"Let her go, you idiot. She thought her opponent was Yuan Zhaoyi, but she didn't know that Yuan Zhaoyi's cowardly temperament would not hinder the matter at all. The real enemy is actually Yuan Youren. As long as Yuan Youren says a word, the queen of this palace will also

Let it come out.”

"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much! Yuan Youren doesn't seem to mind Yuan Zhaoyi's status. He pays more attention to his own interests now."

"His interests are Yuan Zhaoyi's backer. He is now the minister of the Ministry of War. As expected, it will be a matter of time for him to get involved in military power. This man is really ambitious. He is not satisfied with amassing money without hesitation, and he also wants military power.

.His Majesty actually believed his excellent performance in singing and composition, and truly believed that he was a loyal minister and filial son, haha..."

Queen Zhang laughed repeatedly.

She was very curious about what kind of ecstasy soup Yuan Youren gave Emperor Yuan Kang to eat, and he was so fascinated by it.

Based on her understanding of Emperor Yuan Kang, beauty alone cannot achieve this effect.

Yuan Youren's mouth is open, if you have the chance, you really need to learn from it.

"Is the Empress worried that Yuan Youren will be disobedient if he takes over the military power?"

"Not only this palace is worried, but everyone in the court is worried. Everyone knows Yuan Youren's background. When the Yuan family was in the Wu Zong Dynasty, they were sent to the Jiaofang Division for many generations. Do you think that in his heart

How can you not hate it? I think back then, the Yuan family was also an aristocratic family and had enjoyed prosperity for hundreds of years. However, once the situation changed, one family was ruined and everyone died. There was also a noble concubine Yuan back then, but she also did not end well."
