girl, you're wrong

Chapter 674 You Said I Was a Little Girl from the Xie Family

His Majesty has become more and more negligent recently.

The number of early morning political discussions has actually been reduced to once a week, which makes everyone deeply moved.

Where did the sage monarch who went to court every morning go?
Another thing, it is said that the youngest daughter of the Xie family, Xie Lingjiang, will be officially promoted to the rank of court lady from next month to assist Cheng Yuexian in handling political affairs.

For a while, the gentry clan was excited, and there was an endless stream of families visiting the eight major families. Everyone was tentatively asking the emperor's intentions for this move. Does it mean that the Xie family will be fully emphasized in the future?
The Eight Great Families are also very cautious. After all, the emperor is involved, and no one dares to speak out in such a large audience—their own imperial concubine is still in the palace!
The visiting aristocratic families tried for a long time, but they didn't get any solid words, so they expressed their disappointment and left reluctantly.

Then, they turned their heads in unison, went to Xie's house on the other side, and congratulated Xie Wanshi and Xie Anshi.

In addition to congratulating Xie Lingjiang for being favored by the court, everyone is also very concerned about the recent political turmoil and current events.

Dali Siqing and Yushi Zhongcheng, the two fell so quickly in the court dispute that no one else even had a chance to rescue them.

Considering that these two are the backbone of the civilian faction, one can't help but think whether His Majesty has been completely disappointed with the civilian faction.

If it is, then it is an opportunity for the aristocratic family to do something; but if not, no one can withstand the emperor's thunderous wrath.

Not to mention, these two seem to have also been sacked for offending the emperor.

As for the Xie family, although they were soft on accepting invitations, they kept silent about state affairs and behaved more cautiously than the Eight Great Aristocratic Families.

And those aristocratic families who were unable to entertain them in time also gave them polite gifts, promising to visit again at another time.

Among the clan lands, Xie Lingjiang was very happy when he learned that he had been selected as a court lady.

She already had a good impression of Cheng Jinyang, and her relationship with Wang Wanrou and other young ladies was even closer.

After Cheng Jinyang came to power, everyone also lived in Luoyang Palace. The monarch and his ministers were different, so it was not easy to visit casually, and she even felt sad for a long time.

Now being promoted as a court lady, it means that she can see sister Wanrou and the others at any time in the future, which makes Xiao Lingjiang feel extremely happy.

For other members of the Xie clan, in addition to Xie Youdu, the "conglong hero" and "future prime minister", there is now Xie Lingjiang, the "court lady", which also shows the emperor's trust in the Xie clan. increase day by day.

Not to mention, today's little Ling Jiang has the embryonic form of a beauty, and the emperor is known to be an extremely lustful king. If Ling Jiang can enter the harem in the future, give birth to a son and a half daughter, and cooperate with Xie Youdu from the outer court, then The Xie family may not be able to become the second "Yanling Yu family".

Looking ahead, if Xiao Lingjiang's supernatural rank can also be promoted to the first rank, then the Xie family may really develop into a behemoth like the Wang family, which will stand for hundreds of years without falling down...

Of course, everyone will have such a dream, but not everyone can see the risks involved.

Xie Anshi was sick and bedridden at home recently. After learning about this incident, he forced himself to get up and talked with the head of the family, Xie Wanshi, in the secret room for several hours, and then called Xiaoling Jiang over.

Xie Lingjiang:?

She could probably guess why the two uncles called her over, but she didn't expect the atmosphere to be so dignified.

"Ling Jiang." Xie Anshi's voice was a little drowsy, but his tone was still gentle, "What do you think of the position of court lady?"

Xie Lingjiang thought for a moment, then replied:
"Female code, secretary also."

"As far as I know, it should be a position to assist Sister Yuexian in handling affairs on weekdays."

"The so-called secretary is someone who records the important affairs of the state." Xie Anshi nodded slightly, and said, "Since he can get in touch with the important affairs of the state, after a long time, he can develop the ability to analyze and analyze the current situation."

Xie Lingjiang was a little at a loss.

"Cheng Yuexian's position will be inherited by you in the future." Xie Wanshi said beside him.

So Xie Lingjiang was terrified.

Although she is not very familiar with the official position system of Da Zhou today, she has heard the nickname "Nei Xiang" before.

Even in the circle of the eldest lady of the gentry, when everyone talked about Cheng Yuexian, they all showed envy and longing.

Her bloodline potential is very poor, and she would be abandoned by any family. She is a woman, and she has reached the age of being assigned by the family to marry offspring, but in the end, relying on the full trust of the emperor, she climbed to the palace. With the position of "inner chancellor", even the prime minister of the cabinet has to make friends with her when he sees her, not to mention the patriarch of the family behind everyone.

One must know that Cheng Yuexian is not even 30 years old now!How can people not be envious?
Xie Lingjiang is not clear about the power and responsibility of the inner minister, but she is also envious of the detached status of the inner minister, especially the point of "getting rid of the family's marriage referral".

After all, it is not a good thing to be assigned by the family to someone you don't know at all, and to force a marriage contract.

So... Your Majesty asked me to be the court maid, so that I can take over Cheng Yuexian's class and become the next inner minister?

"Ling Jiang." Xie Anshi asked again, "The next question and answer will only take place in this room and must not be leaked."

"I ask you, what do you think of Your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty, you have a heroic spirit." Xie Lingjiang calmed down and replied, "Control Jingxiang to pacify Xishu, restore Nanyang, attack Jianghuai according to Guangling, take Heluo, and make indelible achievements. How can you not be considered a hero? ?”

After Xie Anshi listened quietly, he looked at Xie Wanshi secretly.

Hearing that there is both longing and longing in her words, it should be admiration for Cheng Jinyang.

If there is a feeling of admiration, then it is easy to handle, at least not without feeling.

As for love, for such a young girl, even puppy love is too young.

After being sent to the palace, apart from the palace guards, the only man I can see is the emperor, so there is no need to worry about it in the future.

"You want to take over from Cheng Yuexian's class. You also need to understand the abilities and advantages she possesses now." Xie Wanshi continued, "The first is the ability to control the political situation, the second is the proper way of dealing with people, and the third is the trust of His Majesty the Emperor." .”

"The inner minister is different from the outer minister. The latter's responsibility is to ensure that the central government can control the local area, while the former has to reconcile the differences within the central government, that is, the relationship between the emperor and courtiers."

"When the interests of the emperor and his courtiers conflict, the foreign minister can oppose the emperor on the side of righteousness, but the inner minister cannot. You must be loyal to the emperor and uphold righteousness. If you can't have both, you will end up dead , is the name crack."

Xie Lingjiang listened patiently and understood the meaning without any effort.

The center of the empire is not monolithic, and there will be conflicts between the emperor and courtiers.In order to prevent the two sides from directly confronting each other, it is necessary to set up a buffer, so there is the hidden position of "internal phase".

As the original intention of the establishment, the internal minister itself only needs to be responsible to the emperor, but if he blindly pleases the emperor, he will be no different from a courtier, and his reputation will inevitably be ruined in the world.

And if he always stood on the side of justice and righteousness and dissatisfied the emperor, he would be defeated sooner or later.

Thinking of this, Xie Lingjiang sensed the trickiness, and couldn't help being a little tangled.

"Fish and bear's paw, if you want to have both, you need to have all-round skills." Xie Anshi laughed beside him, his voice was a little weak, "If you can't have both, then you would rather lose your reputation than lose your life."

"On this point, the personal relationship with His Majesty the Emperor is the most important thing. Ling Jiang, do you understand?"

"Understood." Xie Ling and Jiang Zheng nodded.

She naturally understands the reason why there is no need for firewood to keep the green hills.

Seeing her extremely serious face (rather than blushing in embarrassment), Xie Wanshi and Xie Anshi sighed at the same time.

"No, you still don't understand, go back and think about it first." Xie Anshi said with a wry smile, "Maybe we were too hasty, but..."

"...This time window is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Mrs. Xie, so there is no need to rush to achieve success."

Xie Lingjiang:?
