However, Sun Shaozong hurried to the front hall, and after chatting with everyone for a while, before he could talk about the main topic, Cheng Rixing, Lin Delu, Zhou Da and other subordinates came outside.

These people were not on the same level, so Sun Shaozong had to arrange them into two groups and take care of them separately.

Who would have guessed that not long after that, Xu Shouye and others arrived in the same year of Wu Ju after hearing the news.

Sun Shaozong became more and more arrogant.

Fortunately, everyone just came to visit, and didn't mean to drag him to discuss in detail. After a few simple words to bring their minds, they all made birds and beasts.

Among them, Xue Pan was the only one who was not stingy. He stayed to stalk him and insisted that Sun Shaozong be a guest at his mansion at eleven noon.

It was said that he wanted to make up for the housewarming banquet on the sixth day of the sixth day, as if Sun Shaozong would not be able to live in the mansion if he didn't go for a trip.

Sun Shaozong couldn't refuse several times, so he had no choice but to nod his head in response. Then Xue Pan returned to the nest happily.

After the hall was empty, Sun Shaozong suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to give Jia Lian the price list for repairing the garden.

Fortunately, according to Jia Lian's words, the Rongguo Mansion's relatives' courtyard will be completed soon. At that time, relatives and friends will definitely be invited to visit, and then I will find an excuse and leave that thing in Jia's house.

Sun Shaozong thought about it, and was about to leave for the backyard.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the hall, he saw Cheng Rixing hurriedly turned back under the guidance of his servants.

The two are principal employers, so Sun Shaozong would not be polite to him, so he asked in front of the door, "Why did you come back? Could it be that something happened to the government office?"

Cheng Rixing pointed in: "Dongweng, let's go in and talk."

Sun Shaozong had no choice but to lead him back to the living room.

After the guests and the host were seated, Cheng Rixing was a little worried and said: "Dongweng, the limelight in the mansion these few days is not right. There has suddenly been a lot of unfavorable news for you, it seems..."

"Seems like what?"

"It seems that someone is eyeing the position of Zhizhong!"

Someone is eyeing the position of Zhizhong

Sun Shaozong frowned, but he didn't find it strange in his heart. Although it is inferred from common sense that he is the best candidate to succeed this position - but the best candidate is not the only candidate!

If nothing else, the punishment department alone has more than a dozen staff members [from the fifth grade] and the principal [sixth grade], who are eligible to be promoted to this position.

Although the ability of these people is not comparable to that of Sun Shaozong, they can't stand their seniority.

However, if these people want to make waves in the Shuntian Mansion, they are somewhat out of reach.

To say that there are people who have the ability to make waves in Shuntianfu, and who are qualified to succeed Zhizhong, I am afraid there are only...

Yan Tietong sentenced Zhao Liben? !

But this guy's backer, Han Anbang, is about to fall. Where does he have the confidence to compete with himself for the throne

Could it be that this guy secretly betrayed Han Anbang, so he got the support of Jia Yucun...

Not right either.

Jia Yucun has been trapped in the Gongyuan for more than half a month, and this kind of officialdom is not something that can be shouted through the gate.

After pondering for a while, but still to no avail, Sun Shaozong had to inquire again: "Then who has Zhao Liben been with recently?"

Cheng Rixing said without hesitation, "Fu Tongjuan, and Wang Zhixian of Daxing County!"

tsk~

Because Fu Shi was Jia Zheng's beloved disciple, he had always been arrogant and tight-lipped in the government office; and Wang Qian was even more of a master without a son.

To say that these two goods will encourage Zhao Liben to usurp power and seize the throne, Sun Shaozong will not be surprised at all!

But as long as it's not Jia Yucun's handwriting, there's nothing to worry about.

So Sun Shaozong smiled indifferently and said, "Don't worry, it's just a few clowns jumping on the beam. If you want to compete with me for a seat, you're still a little too far behind!"

After speaking, seeing that Cheng Rixing was still a little uneasy, he smiled again: "In the morning, Eunuch Dai's godson has spoken thoroughly, and His Majesty has appointed me. I am also on the list of this year's Luming Banquet!"

The day after the results of the township examination are released, the local officials will prepare a banquet for the invigilators and the new imperial examiners, which is called the Luming Banquet.

Needless to say, people are naturally unable to sit on the table.

As for the invigilators, even if only the same examiners were grading the papers, there were as many as 20 or 30 people, and it was obviously impossible for so many people to sit in the seats.

Therefore, in addition to the main and deputy chief examiners, there are often only three or five of the same examiners who can be selected to sit on the seat—and only these few co-examiners sitting in the upper seat can be regarded as recognized 'room teachers'.

It is not without precedent that the patrolling envoys are on the table, but they are all people of high power, such as Sun Shaozong, who is young and has an official of the sixth rank, but this is the first time in history.

Coupled with the fact that the emperor himself added the plug, the meaning of this promotion is simply beyond words!

Cheng Rixing is also a veteran of the field, and he naturally knows the meaning of 'being on the table'.

After he left, Sun Shaozong was free, ready to go back to the backyard to open the family letter with Ruan Rong to see what the cheap old husband wrote.

Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the back house, Ruan Rong couldn't wait. She opened the family letter and read it again.

Fortunately, looking at her happy appearance, there should be nothing inappropriate in the letter.

"master."

Seeing Sun Shaozong entering the door, Ruan Rong smiled and said, "My father has been promoted, but his temper has changed. In the letter, he rambled on and said a lot of official business trivia."

Said a lot of official trivia

Sun Shaozong curiously picked it up and glanced at it, and found that his cheap old husband had indeed been promoted, and he was also such a fat man as the minister of household.

And about half of this letter is to confide the thoughts of her daughter, and the other half is to write a lot of trivial things, complaining that she is busy with official business recently, and she doesn't even have time to rest.

but…

If you put all these trivial matters together and ponder them carefully, you will find that this is not just a simple complaint!

According to Sun Shaozong's original inference, Qianxiang Kingdom should be preparing to attack Zhen Kingdom, so I hope to get the full support of Da Zhou.

However, in this letter, it was revealed that all supplies from Qianxiang Country were being mobilized to the surrounding area, but the supply from Zhen Country was much less...

Could it be that Qianxiangguo ate the gall of a bear and a leopard, and wanted to take advantage of the two fronts of the Great Zhou Dynasty to make a counterattack? !

And looking at the meaning, 80% of the Zhenguo has also been involved!

If this is true, then the southwest border will be in chaos.

But the cheap old man, why should he reveal this information to himself

Could it be that he is the legendary 'Xianjian' and 'Leading Party'? !

After reading it carefully several times, Sun Shaozong thought about it, but smiled on his face: "Since Lao Taishan has been promoted, he has to go to celebrate. Let's go to Xuanzhen Temple tomorrow, and I heard that there is a central There are many chrysanthemums, and the mountain road is neatly built, so that the road will not bump you."
