Drunk House Chapter 718

Fengling and Ziye sent Cui Yanjin all the way back to the Cui Mansion. They coaxed and persuaded and threatened Zhou Gu, making Cui Yanjin completely convinced that his cousin really wanted to put him in the Ministry of Rites.

He stood at the door of Cui Mansion, looking at the two of them, feeling that he had no idea.

Feng Ling patted him on the shoulder, "Xiao Yanjin, why did you come to Nanchu? Aren't you just to follow Brother Xing to revitalize the Cui family in Nanchu? Now is such a good opportunity for you to enter the court and experience it since you were a child. No one among them can have the opportunity and blessing you have, let alone, if you stay with me, what are you afraid of?"

Cui Yanjin took a deep breath, straightened up and shouted, "Okay, brother Feng, I will follow you from now on, but you have to be nice to me and don't cheat me."

Feng Ling chuckled, "Just because you saved my life and my sister's, I have to be trustworthy to you for the rest of my life!"

Cui Yanjin was relieved.

So, on the next day Zhou Gu went to the Ministry of Husbandry to fill the vacancies, and Fengling and Cui Yanjin went to the Ministry of Rites to fill the vacancies.

All the courtiers in the household department were not surprised when the concubine went to the household department. With his talent, he deserved such a position. It is not surprising that the concubine let Feng Ling beside her work as a minister in the Ministry of Etiquette. After all, there is a real shortage of people in the court now, and Master Feng beside the concubine is even more needed. But the teenage son of Cui family of Qinghe also took the official position of sixth-rank Yuanwai Lang in the Ministry of Rites. This was unexpected and shocking.

Not to mention Southern Chu, even Daliang and Wei, the youngest number one scholar to enter the dynasty was only sixteen years old. Cui Yanjin, on the other hand, was eleven years old last year and is only twelve years old this year. Entering the DPRK in such an unconventional way is really too unconventional.

So some elderly courtiers submitted a memorial, saying that they knew that the courtiers were at the right time to appoint people, but the selection of officials should not be too childlike or too outrageous. Everyone knows that the young master Yan Jin of the Cui family of Qinghe cannot read and has not written much. If he is sent to the army for training, it is okay. After all, it is not out of the box for a young boy to be thrown into the army to be a soldier, but After entering the court as an official, he immediately filled the vacancy of a sixth-grade official. This was really too out of the ordinary. This will disrupt the rules of the court. In the future, young people will not take scientific examinations and learn to find other ways to become officials in the court. This is not a good thing and is not good for the country.

Not one, but more than ten copies of the memorial were presented to the King of Southern Chu.

The King of Nanchu recalled it. At that time, he only heard that Fengling asked Zhou Gu for Cui Yanjin, but he did not expect that he not only asked for someone, but also sent out a sixth-grade Yuanwailang. He also thought that Cui Yanjin would follow him in and out of the Ministry of Etiquette. Woolen cloth.

The King of Nanchu did not immediately approve it, but accepted all these documents and kept them without publishing them. Waiting to find time to ask Zhou Gu and Su Rong in the evening.

Although Fengling killed him first and then reported it yesterday, when he came back, he also informed Su Rong that he would send a sixth-grade Yuanwailang to Cui Yanjin.

Su Rong raised her eyebrows.

Fengling immediately explained, "Sister, do you want to support the Cui family of Qinghe? If there is only one Cui Xingzhi, a single tree cannot grow into a forest. We also need to drag Cui Yanjin up. Although he is young, don't forget, he can hold on this time Heiyaguan, the people of the Guisha Sect deserve the greatest credit, just for saving your life and the whole of Nanchu, they are just a sixth-grade Yuanwailang."

Su Rong took a sip of tea and said, "I didn't say what you did was wrong." Feng Ling smiled and relaxed, "I'm not an unreasonable person. When I left the palace to find him, I thought about it on the way. I couldn't just let him work with me like this. There would be no benefit, so I thought that there was a vacancy for the sixth-grade member of the Ministry of Etiquette. Although he was a bit out of line for his age, it was not impossible, so I allowed him to go out. But sister, you are now Madam, I've forgotten that it's not the past. It's a bit bad to grant permission for you so randomly. After all, the whole government can be affected by a single move. It's not like before that I could make decisions for you at will. If you think It's not appropriate, I'll go to Cui Mansion again and change it again.”

Su Rong nodded and didn't think Fengling did anything wrong. If she had done everything herself and thought everything through, she would have been exhausted. Fengling is hers and thinks what she thinks. She feels very good and asks: " You didn't scare Yan Jin, did you?"

"He was frightened. When he heard about the sixth-grade Yuanwai Lang, he was completely shocked. He shook his head and said that he couldn't do it. Ziye and I coaxed and persuaded him for a long time, and he felt weak. Later, I used my brother-in-law to suppress him, and he finally encouraged him. I agreed with all my strength." Fengling said: "Sister, actually I really think it will work. You have forgotten that after the two young masters of the Cui family arrived at Heiya Pass with the Cui family's secret guards and the Guishamen people, , you, your brother-in-law, and everyone else are recovering from their injuries. It was the two brothers who led the people to defend Heiya Pass for many days. Yan Jin also played a big role at that time."

"I know, naturally I won't forget it." Su Rong said: "Originally, I was thinking about how to reward the two Cui brothers when Cui Xingzhi comes back. Cui Xingzhi is easy to say. He started with a higher official position. Cui Yanjin is too young, but his achievements are not. Xiao, I still need to think about it, but now that you are promising a sixth-grade Yuanwai Lang, I think it is just right."

Fengling promised, "But next time I won't be able to make my own decisions. This is just this time. Don't worry, sister."

On the way back, he suddenly remembered that he had now joined the court. If he couldn't get away in the future and couldn't return to his sister's side to be a real secret guard, then he would also be a courtier. His sister was now the queen. Girl, he will be the king in the future. How can he just open his mouth and promise himself an official position in the imperial court? This is a taboo for kings and ministers. Even if his sister trusted him again, he couldn't do this. He didn't have the right, and he was afraid that if he did too much, he would lose his temper first and be finished.

"Okay, just be more careful next time. It's not a big deal." Su Rong yawned and waved to him, "Stop inking, I'm sleepy, you should go to bed quickly! Don't go tomorrow. After joining the Ministry of Rites, the old minister dislikes both of you and sends you both back, which would be a shame."

Fengling: “…”

As expected of her, she is the most capable of touching people's hearts.

He got up silently and went back to sleep.

Su Rong put down the tea cup and got up and went back to the house. She saw that Zhou Gu had finished taking a bath and lay down on the bed. He was still awake and waiting for her. Seeing her coming back, he asked in confusion: "What happened? It took you so long to talk to Fengling?"

Su Rong briefly told him that Fengling had made a promise to Cui Yanjin to be a sixth-rank member of the Ministry of Etiquette. After the promise was made, he felt that it was not appropriate and came back to apologize to her. He talked for a long time.

Zhou Gu nodded, thought for a moment, looked at her and said, "This brother of yours is here to relieve your worries! First, it solves the problem of how to reward your little cousin. He joined the court as an official at a young age, and this time If the matter were reported back to the Cui family in Qinghe, Daliang, it would definitely explode. My grandfather would be very pleased to know that you valued them, and it was right for him to send his most valued grandson. Second, he helped you support the Cui family in Daliang. , are they considered my relatives? They must be trying to quickly support a family to compete with Ye Xiang's Mansion in the future and prevent Ye Xiang's Mansion from following the old path of Nangong's family?”

After he finished speaking, he sighed, "When Uncle Xie trained Fengling, it was obviously not just for the secret guards. He had a far-reaching plan and a far-reaching plan." (End of this chapter)
