In front of Jianyuan Hall, at the grand dynasty meeting.
The Emperor of the First Emperor praised the landlord from head to toe, then looked at the old teacher and said, "What I mean is that since the old Situ is old and begging for retirement, then let the new landlord inherit his title and official position."
"Your Majesty is kind and nostalgic for merits. It is a blessing for the ministers." Xiahou Ba did not give the Emperor Chu's face at all and smiled after leaving the class: "It was just that at the beginning of the year, Lu Xin was only a small county magistrate. It was me who promoted him to the right prime minister of Dali Temple and promoted him to the position of Secretariat Minister. He was promoted to six levels in a row within a year, and the promotion rate was the first since the founding of the country."
"Then... what the old teacher means?" The Emperor of Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was displeased.
"In the foolish opinion of the old minister, you always have to eat one bite at a time, and it is not enough to help the seedlings grow." Xiahou Ba smiled faintly and said, "Situ's position is of great importance. Lu Xin suddenly got his high position, and he was afraid that he would make mistakes. This would be unbeautiful. He should be allowed to stabilize first, and practice in a less important position for a few years. When he makes contributions in the future, it would be better if he would be rewarded?"
"Haha, the old teacher is really considerate." The first emperor teased: "Where is the title? This does not require experience, right?"
"This..." Xiahou Ba was not very good at opposing it. Because this was not a matter for the land valve family. The valve owners of each valve were old and the old were about to change in the past few years, and everyone was watching him. Although Xiahou Ba could use the reason of insufficient experience and qualifications to block the heirs of each valve to let them know what awe is. But they could not do too much, otherwise, when the emperor cited precedents and came to block his own side, wouldn't he dig a hole and bury himself?
Therefore, the old teacher hesitated and said, "You can let him inherit the title first."
"Okay, I'll listen to the Grand Tutor for the matter." The Emperor of the First Ding paused and thought for a moment: "As for official positions, I saw that Lu Xin had excellent performance in releasing food before, so let him be the Minister of Revenue."
"Your Majesty, you must not." Xie Xun heard this, as if he was stepped on his tail, and hurriedly jumped out and opposed: "The Ministry of Revenue is concerned about national economy and people's livelihood, and should not be moved lightly. Gao Guangning, the Minister of Revenue, was dismissed from office. The current Minister of Revenue Xie Yu had just taken over less than half a year. He had just figured out the clues. The beginning of spring is the busiest time of the year. At this time, the replacement of people will make the entire yamen at a loss."
As he said that, Xie Xun looked at Cui Yan with a look of help, and then at Xiahou Ba.
Cui Yan turned his head and stayed out of the matter.
"Xie Xianggong is right, please think twice." Xiahou Ba also hoped that Xie Xun would help his son and restrain Cui Yan in the Secretariat. Of course, he had to support him.
"Okay, since Xie Pushe is reluctant to give up the Ministry of Revenue, then let the Ministry of Personnel be out." Emperor Chu's face turned a little blue and his tone became sharp.
"This..." Xiahou Ba was so angry that he heard this. The Minister of Personnel was no one else, but his eldest son. The Minister of the Shangshu's right servant Xiahou did not hurt and served as the person himself... This was the punishment he gave to Cui Yan after the Cui family and the Land Valves got married. The old teacher also took a lot of effort to snatch the head of the six divisions from Cui Yan, who had the black hats of all officials. How could he give in?
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Personnel is not suitable." Xiahou Ba had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "The Ministry of Personnel is the head of the six ministries, and the appointment and removal of all officials in the world must be served by Pushe to be safe. Besides, Lu Xin has never been to the Ministry of Personnel for a day. How could he know which officials are competent and which officials are incompetent?"
"This is not possible, that is not possible." Emperor Chu Shi's face was already very disproportionate to this New Year. He whispered his sleeves irritably, "The old master will decide, which one of the six divisions is given?"
"This..." Xiahou Ba was not good to have a strife with the emperor on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Besides, why is Lu Xin the leader of a sect? How could he be humiliated easily? After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Rites is the most noble, and Lu Xin can serve as the Minister of Rites. This not only conforms to his identity as the leader of a sect, but also allows him to be familiar with the affairs of the Land Valve."
"The old teacher is considerate, just do what you want." The Emperor Chu was distracted by the intent and waved his hand coldly.
"Retreat the court!" Du Hui sang loudly, and all the officials hurriedly knelt down and sent the emperor away. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, who would accompany the emperor to starve and cold here, everyone was eager to leave the court earlier. Going home to pay New Year's greetings and having wine is the only way to do it.

In Changle Hall.
"Hahahaha..." The Emperor Chu suppressed his laughter all the way and returned to the warm chalet. He finally couldn't help laughing so hard that he fell back and forth. "Let him behave like a ghost, but he still drinks my foot wash water."
"Your Majesty has really seen through the old master." Du Hui bowed and helped Emperor Chu Shi take off his court boots, and smiled while tilting his head.
"It's because he is too powerful. I don't understand the reason why Kang Long regrets..." Chu Shi Emperor stretched with satisfaction.
Du Hui knew the plans of the Chu Shi Emperor very clearly and knew that he wanted to help Lu Xin get the position of Minister of Rites from the beginning. But if the emperor spoke directly, it would definitely arouse Xiahou Ba's suspicion. Once the old master was suspicious, even if he was unclear, he would prevent Lu Xin from obtaining this official position just in case.
So at the beginning, the Emperor raised his tone and appointed Lu Xin as Situ, and wanted to make him the Minister of Revenue. That is, Xiahou Ba would definitely oppose it for the sake of opposition. However, Xiahou Ba could not unanimously oppose it, and always had to reach a compromise with the emperor at a certain moment.
Therefore, Emperor Chu was deliberately angry and asked the old master to decide for himself. This seemed to be kicking the ball to Xiahou Ba, but in fact, in the scope of the six divisions of Emperor Chu was able to dedicate Xiahou Ba to Lu Xin, the only one who could be willing to give to Lu Xin was the Minister of Rites.
The Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel needs no need to say. The Ministry of Justice is in charge of the world's crimes, the Ministry of War is in charge of the military mobilization, food and supplies, and even the Ministry of Works is in charge of construction and weapons. This is a deadly position. How can Lu Xin and the Emperor be inserted into the foot? Therefore, among the six ministries, there is only the Ministry of Rites, which ignores the civil affairs, which is slightly less important. Moreover, Wei Qing, the current Minister of Rites, is a member of the Wei family, so Xiahou Ba is of course happy to see that they are their own people.
Therefore, the Emperor of Chu had already been accurate, and Xiahou Ba would definitely take out the Minister of Rites and throw it to Lu Xin.
At this moment, Xiahou Ba's choice was of course right. But if he knew that after the next plan of the First Emperor, he would definitely regret it.
"After spring begins, the first step begins." The first emperor took out a white jade chess piece from the chess box and landed steadily on the Tianyuan position of the chess scale.
Du Hui showed a strong look of worry. With the support of the land and guards, His Majesty obviously mustered up the courage to fight Xiahou Ba. But in Du Hui's opinion, His Majesty's chess is still too dangerous, and if he is not careful, he will lose all the game...
