Li Chongjiu and Chen Xiaoyi and the king and his minister were talking to each other.

Chen Xiaoyi knew that he had not had much time, so he immediately told Li Chongjiu that he had a deep impression. He recommended a few young people who had low official positions but were very capable of doing things.

"Zhou Zhou has some talent, and it is rare for scholars to be in charge of soldiers. He has a gully in his chest, but this kind of person can be used, not very useful."

"Zhao Xin is different. She is smooth in her work and has a father's support. She can be considered as a disadvantage when doing things. However, she is too smooth and loses her edge. She can be used but can't accomplish anything..."

Chen Xiaoyi said for a while, then suddenly coughed anxiously. He immediately picked up a scoop of blood and vomited out the top.

"Where is the imperial doctor?" Li Chongjiu was about to speak, but Chen Xiaoyi stopped him and said, "Your Majesty is useless. I have been used to it. It's not a problem anymore. I have the last bit of strength to talk to you in the end."

Li Chongjiu's eyes turned red and said, "My dear, I really can't bear to see you continue to hold on."

Chen Xiaoyi shook his head and said, "The old minister has not had much time, and there are only so many things that can be done to His Majesty. I have abandoned the national affairs and really wish I could not accompany His Majesty anymore. Now I can only hand over this stall to His Majesty. After His Majesty's humble minister left, have you decided to take over the candidate for the Shangshu Zuo Pushe?"

Li Chongjiu said: "Love, the position of Zuo Pushe is of great importance. I don't know that all the civil and military officials of the court can take your position temporarily?"

Chen Xiaoyi thought for a while and said, "Shujie Wang."

Li Chongjiu shook his head and said, "Shangshu Zuo Pushe is the head of the Shangshu Province. According to principles, Wang Aiqing has been in the Shangshu Province for many years, so it would be better to let him go from Right Pushe to Left Pushe, but in this case, he would have to order people to enter the Shangshu Province again and add Wang Shujie to the left Pushe position and the right Pushe is empty."

Chen Xiaoyi said: "Your Majesty, my husband, Wen Dalin, and Wang Shujie are both from Hedong and Taiyuan. It is better to choose from him."

Chen Xiaoyi means. Nowadays, most of the civil servants in the court are from Shanxi, Li Chongjiu's fellow villager, while there are not people from Hebei, Shandong and Henan. However, people from the three places have a great influence in the court. Chen Xiaoyi suggests that Li Chongjiu transfer people from other places to balance the situation in the court.

After understanding Chen Xiaoyi's meaning, Li Chongjiu sat for a while and returned to the hall. Li Chongjiu first summoned the imperial physician to save Chen Xiaoyi's illness no matter what, and then he thought about the situation in the court.

The news that Chen Xiaoyi was seriously ill soon became known to the officials of Youjing. Many officials were staring at the Shangshu Zuo Pushe, who was vacant in Chen Xiaoyi. The Shangshu Zuo Pushe was the top leader of the Shangshu Province without the Shangshu Order. The Da Zhao civil officials ranked second, second only to the Zhongshu Order.

Chen Xiaoyi was Li Chongjiu's boss back then, and he was the one with the highest official position in the court in the early days. Therefore, he deserved his position as the Minister of Shangshu Zuo Pushe. Now, who else can take over be the subject of Chen Xiaoyi? It is a question of who can take over.

In addition to Chen Xiao's accident, news was also released in the officialdom of Zhao that Yang Linfu, the Minister of Rites, also submitted a memorial to Li Chongjiu, requesting to retire and return home. Yang Linfu has always been in poor health. As we all know, Luo Yi rebelled and imprisoned Yang Linfu, who was still the county magistrate of Liaoxi County at that time, was imprisoned. Yang Linfu was in prison for several months and was damaged. After becoming an official, he had been in poor health, so this time he asked Li Chongjiu to retire.

It would be fine if the Secretary of the Shangshu Zuo Pushe, but with the Minister of Personnel, two positions in the eight vacancies of the Shangshu Province were still two crucial positions. The Minister of Personnel was in charge of the promotion and assessment of officials. The Ministry of Personnel has always been the leader of the six ministries, and in the eyes of many people, even the power is comparable to that of the Secretary of the Shangshu You Pushe.

Who can take over after Chen Xiaoyi and Yang Linfu retreat?

Youjing Wenfu.

The court was full of ups and downs. But for Wen Yanbo, no matter how the Shangshu Province changes, it will have little impact on Wen Yanbo, the top leader of the Secretariat.

Now Wen Yanbo and his two sons, Wen Zhenwen Ting, were fishing by the river. Wen Zhen was mature and persistent and did not speak, but Wen Ting was impatient.

Wen Yanbo looked at Wen Ting and said, "Don't hold back if you have anything to say, just say it."

Wen Ting breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Recently, the classmates from the Imperial College have been talking about the Secretary of the Shangshu Zuo Pushe. Who can take over the Minister of Personnel? Dad, I wonder what do you think?"

Wen Zhen put on the airs of his elder brother and scolded: "Is this matter also what you scholars should care about? This autumn exam is coming. If you don't study hard, why do you care about this?"

Wen Ting said: "We entered the Imperial College not only to study, but also to care about the affairs of the court. In the future, we can be useful and contribute to the court. The changes in the court are often discussed by our Imperial College students, and the Master also banned them."

Wen Yanbo didn't say anything, and he always acted as the prime minister, who was always an amateur, said: "Zhou Jijiu is enlightened. You always say good things for him. It seems that he has a good attitude to govern the Imperial College."

Wen Ting seemed to have grasped something and asked: "Dad, are you suggesting that Zhou Jijiu has this possibility? Yes, in recent years, Zhou Jijiu has trained many talents for our Imperial College, and I heard that he has followed His Majesty since Huaihuang Town. Compared to Mr. Ji, His Majesty has been much more close to him. Will he succeed the Minister of Personnel?"

"There is absolutely no possibility." Wen Zhen said.

"Why?"

"It is obvious that although Zhou Jijiu is full of students, he has never been to the Shangshu Province and has no experience in governing affairs in Shangshu Province. How could he suddenly make him the Minister of Personnel?"

Wen Yanbo said happily: "It's right, the official position is moved in order. Ting'er. If you encounter any problems, you should learn more from your elder brother."

Wen Ting could only say reluctantly: "Yes, the child remembers the teachings of his father and eldest brother."

Wen Yanbo smiled and said, "Actually, it's okay to say it. In the future, you will all be officials. These are all things to be experienced. It is beneficial to you and not harmful to know what is happening in the officialdom as soon as possible."

After hearing his father's permission, Wen Zhen immediately said his previous thoughts and said, "Dad, look, Prime Minister Chen and Shangshu Yang were both old officials of the court, and they were loyal ministers to the previous dynasty. When His Majesty married the current queen, these two people were the most supportive. Now when the two of them left, will they destroy the balance in the court?"

Wen Yanbo showed a child's teaching and comforting expression and said, "It's very good, with this insight, it seems that you can move upwards in the position of the censor."

"Thank you for your praise." Wen Zhen was happy after hearing his father's praise, but he was more inclined to know the answer in his heart.

Wen Zhen simply let go and said, "Dad, do you think Empress Xiao and the Queen will interfere in this matter?"
