Datang: I am the prince of salted fish, I impeach Li Er at the beginning

Chapter 37 Words must be done, actions must be resolute, and deeds must be believed!

As soon as Li Zhi left the palace, he dragged Changsun Wuji to a corner outside the palace.

"Uncle, my nephew is looking for you this time to ask you for a favor."

"I have a friend who wants to enter Yushitai and find a job."

"But you also know that the head of the official department has just been sent away by me, so things will be a little troublesome now."

Li Zhi said with a bitter face, as if he wasn't the one who sent Hou Junji away, his eyes were full of innocence.

Arranging the appointment and removal of officials below the third rank must go through the Ministry of Officials, otherwise there is no way to arrange it.

It's just that the official department lacks a person in charge, so they can only find Changsun Wuji.

Changsun Wuji is the current Situ, who has the power to assess, appoint and dismiss officials.

As long as he says a word, the people in the official department will execute it immediately.

This is also the reason why Li Zhi wanted to find Changsun Wuji.

When Changsun Wuji heard this, he couldn't help laughing immediately.

"Hey! I said your kid's mouth, why is it so sweet today, co-authoring is asking for others?"

Although the two are close on weekdays, they are not so close in public.

As a result, it turned out to be such a thing.

Changsun Wuji shook his head helplessly. He thought about it for a while, and thought that the master book of Yushitai was just a small official "under the seventh rank", so he never thought of refusing.

However, he still has one condition.

"It's okay to help you with this little favor, but you have to write down the poem you read in the court and send it to me!"

Now that Li Zhi has become famous with his poems, it's the time when his hands are hot!
And his new works are not bad in quality, and they have special meanings, which are definitely worth collecting!
Changsun Wuji is trading Li Zhi's "handwritten poems", and he doesn't know if he doesn't want to suffer a loss, or if he really wants to collect his nephew's poems.

Anyway, Li Zhi has no reason to refuse anyway.

"It's okay to write poems, but I'm a bit busy today, I will definitely do it next time!"

Thinking that there are still many things to be busy in a while, Li Zhi did not agree directly, but made a promise to wait two days before writing.

Changsun Wuji didn't say much, and immediately accepted the deal.

"That's fine, you go and inform the other party first, and I will arrange it for you then."

After finishing speaking, Changsun Wuji took a step to leave, but he stopped as soon as he took a step.

"Wait... you haven't said yet, what is the name of the person you want to appoint or remove?"

"what?"

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses.

Yup!

The appointment and dismissal of officials must record his name.

How did I forget about this?

Li Zhi looked up at Changsun Wuji, feeling a little embarrassed.

Seeing this situation, Changsun Wuji couldn't help feeling strange.

"What? The person you want to recommend has a problem with his life experience?"

If it wasn't because of his background, why would Li Zhi hesitate?
Besides, Changsun Wuji couldn't think of other possibilities.

Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji said seriously: "Any official serving in the imperial court must have a clean background. If there is a criminal record, don't blame uncle for my lack of respect!"

"It's not that there is a criminal record, but the identity of this person..."

Li Zhi hesitated for a while, but decided to confess to Changsun Wuji.

"Forget it! Let me tell you straight! The person I want to recommend is Cui Zhiwen, a direct descendant of the Qinghe Cui family!"

"A few days ago, Cui Zhiwen approached me and said that he would join my sect!"

"I tested him and he passed my test. After that... I promised him to be my doorman!"

Even if you want to hide this matter deliberately, you can't hide it for too long.

It's better to say it clearly, so as not to cause trouble to the eldest grandson Wuji and ruin the friendship between uncle and nephew.

In fact, this is not a big problem, it depends on whether Changsun Wuji is willing to take this risk.

Changsun Wuji was silent for a long time when he heard the words, and he asked, "Are you sure that Cui Zhiwen is really devoted to your sect?"

Li Zhi replied affirmatively: "Sure! And sure! The test I gave him is not something that ordinary people can pass! If he doesn't have enough determination, he will never pass!"

"In this case, there is no problem." Changsun Wuji didn't hesitate much, and finally agreed: "Qinghe Cui Zhiwen, right? Uncle will make proper arrangements for you."

Cui Zhiwen is a double-edged sword.

It can hurt both the clan and the family.

In case Cui Zhiwen came for the clan, once a position was assigned to him, Changsun Wuji would also be unlucky with him.

After all, the Cui family of Qinghe is the number one enemy of the Holy Majesty today!
But if Cui Zhiwen took refuge in him sincerely, then there would be no problem.

Because Cui Zhiwen accepted Li Zhi's invitation, which was equivalent to betraying his family.

If Li Shimin knew about this, he would be too happy, and naturally he would not be held accountable.

What Changsun Wuji was afraid of was that Li Zhi would be fooled.

But thinking of Li Zhi's shrewdness, how could he be easily played by others.

Out of trust in ability, I agreed.

The reason why there are so many explanations is because the twists and turns are too complicated.

There is no way, the court itself is a complex thing that makes one's scalp tingle.

Without a clear explanation, it's hard to see what's at stake.

With the promise from Changsun Wuji, Li Zhi felt relieved.

Otherwise, it would be too absurd to say that Cui Zhiwen would be assigned to Yushitai just now, but the promise could not be fulfilled.

It's not a good thing to lose your trust.

Especially the promise to subordinates, that is a promise that must be fulfilled.

Otherwise, as long as you lose something like integrity once, it will be impossible to pick it up again.

Therefore, what Li Zhi said had to be carefully considered.

It is the way of a king not to take advantage of others' trust easily, nor to give any promises lightly!

Words must be done, actions must be resolute, and resoluteness must be believed!

That's what I said.

A gentleman is worth a thousand pieces of gold, and it's no joke.

Of course, sometimes, the king also broke his promise.

But that is when dealing with the enemy, so I won't list them one by one here.

After separating from Changsun Wuji, Li Zhi walked outside the palace gate.

When he walked to Chengtianmen, he saw the ministers using the goldfish bags around their waists as tokens to enter and leave the court, which made him very envious.

"Hey! Officials of rank five and above can only wear fish bags. When can I use this thing to enter and leave the palace?"

Li Zhi sighed, took out the gold medal on his waist, and handed it to the guard.

After taking a look, the guard waved to Li Zhi, indicating that he could pass.

Seeing this scene, the eyes of the surrounding officials almost straightened.

When will they be able to carry the imperial gold medal with them like King Jin?
Although the goldfish bag is good, there is no such thing as an imperial gold medal.

With the imperial gold medal, one can enter and exit any secret place in the world, which is not comparable to the goldfish bag.
