The strongest Marquis in history

How can there be any prestige at all?

He should have always followed Zhu Shanchang's opinion and united closely around Zhu Shanchang.

This is the root.

Unfortunately, he went astray.

Sima Chong took a deep breath and said, "I understand, I know what to do."

Zhu Shanchang nodded and said, "Boss Sima, His Majesty trusts you. Whether you are an official in the court or not, His Majesty trusts you."

Sima Chong nodded and said no more.

Zhu Shanchang grasped the style of painting, glanced at the people present, and continued: "Now that Mr. Sima is serving, the cabinet in the imperial court is short of one person. Therefore, it is necessary to add one person to come in. According to His Majesty's instructions, Yuan Cang is now arranged Master Yuan entered the cabinet and served as one of the cabinet members, as a member of our six-member decision-making group."

Yuan Cang stood up and saluted everyone.

For him, this is the first time he has entered the cabinet, so he should be cautious in his words and deeds.In the past at the Yushitai, he, the doctor of the censor, although his rank was not comparable to those in the cabinet, he was also a big boss.

Now in the cabinet, everyone is older than him.

Yuan Cang also needs to be cautious.

Yuan Cang's mind is different from that of Mi Huang and others at this moment. Yuan Cang is cautious, but Mi Huang's heart is full of anticipation. In fact, the people in the cabinet are actually seniors, and he should be the second assistant of the cabinet. .

In the end, it was Sima Chong who came down from the air suddenly, which made him lose his mind as the cabinet's second assistant.

Now, it was him.

As long as he becomes the cabinet assistant, everything still has a chance.

Even, you can wrestle with Zhu Shanchang.

Mi Huang was looking forward to it in his heart, and Liu Zhengyuan, who was standing on the same front as Mi Huang, was also looking forward to it in his heart.Because Liu Zhengyuan is on Mi Huang's side, as long as Mi Huang takes a step forward, then Liu Zhengyuan will also have a real big backer.

Zhu Shanchang smiled slightly, and said slowly: "Yuan Cang joined the cabinet. Since Sima Gong retired, the candidate for the cabinet's second assistant also needs to be determined. His Majesty has also made arrangements for this candidate."

When he said this, he stopped immediately.

His eyes swept over the crowd.

Mi Huang held his head high, he was not afraid of Zhu Shanchang at all, he said directly: "Zhu Shoufu, just announce it directly. The candidate for the cabinet chief assistant is none other than you. But among all the people, except me who is in the cabinet Jisuke, who else is there? My qualifications are the most suitable, just announce it directly."

He was very arrogant and didn't hold back at all.

This is Mi Huang's current attitude.

In fact, when Wang Qi proclaimed himself emperor, the Qi Kingdom was established, and Mi Zhen became a noble concubine, and Mi Huang himself was also a powerful minister, Mi Huang at this time gradually changed, not as cautious in words and deeds as in the past.

That's why I said it so directly.

Chapter 963 Several joys and sorrows

Listening to Mi Huang's words, Zhu Shanchang stroked the beard under his chin, with a faint smile on his face, and said calmly: "Master Mi, I'm afraid this time, I'm going to disappoint you again."

Mi Huang said in a deep voice, "What do you mean?"

A bad premonition arose in his heart, one must know that he is Mi Zhen's elder brother, once in charge of the household department, one of the most important officials of Qi State, and even made great contributions to Qi State in the establishment of Qi State.

Now, is it still going to be suppressed?

Zhu Shanchang said indifferently: "The candidate for the second assistant of the cabinet is Mrs. Lan Yulan. He is now promoted to the second assistant of the cabinet and will fully assist me in handling cabinet affairs. This is the candidate personally appointed by His Majesty."

boom! !

There seemed to be a thunderbolt in Mi Huang's mind.

I was stunned.

how come?

How could it be Lan Yu?

You know, Lan Yu was appointed Minister of the Ministry of War only later.When it comes to qualifications, the difference is not a star.To put it bluntly, Lan Yu's qualifications are at the bottom of the cabinet.

But now, he jumped up and became the second assistant of the cabinet.

"This this,……"

Mi Huang said, "Zhu Shoufu, did you misunderstand His Majesty's arrangement?"

Zhu Shanchang's eyes were sharp, and he said in a deep voice: "Lord Mi, are you questioning Your Majesty? You have to be clear about one thing. Your Majesty has made an arrangement here, and I announce it now. It is impossible to make a mistake. Do you think that if there is a mistake, His Majesty will not know ?"

Mi Huang's cheeks twitched, feeling very disappointed.

why?

Why is this happening?

In his heart, he couldn't figure it out at all, and he didn't know why such a thing happened.

But Lan Yu stood up, bowed and saluted: "Please rest assured Zhu Shoufu, I will go all out to assist Mr. Shoufu and handle the government affairs well. All of us should unite around Mr. Shoufu to serve His Majesty. Qi country works."

"Sit down."

Zhu Shanchang waved his hand.

Lan Yu just sat down.

Sima Chong has been on the sidelines, watching this scene happen.He is now a bystander, and when he saw the arrangement just now, a look of astonishment flashed across his eyes.

He figured it out.

The emperor is dissatisfied with the Mi family.

Originally, when the cabinet was established, Mi Huang was supposed to be the second assistant to the cabinet, but he was airborne.Now that he is serving as a pensioner, his qualifications and prestige should be in vain, but he has arranged for Lan Yu to take over.

Mi Huang has nothing.

This is quite an unusual thing to do.

Sima Chong shook his head, but smiled in his heart.Because everything that is happening now is suppressed.The more Mi Huang fought with Zhu Shan, the final result became more and more miserable.

This is suicidal.

But all of this has nothing to do with him, an old guy.

Zhu Shanchang didn't care about everyone's thoughts. After he announced, he said again: "After the decree is announced, let me continue to talk about the focus of this year after the cabinet reorganization and adjustment."

"First, the imperial examinations will continue as usual. This year, the imperial examinations will still be held, and scholars will still be selected."

"Second, the advancement of the train project is the most important thing, and it is related to the key to the entire strategy of Qi."

"The third is the cement project, which is the key to building bridges and paving roads. Maybe you don't know about this matter, and you don't know it very well, but after you get familiar with it, you will know that this needs to be promoted."

"These three aspects are the focus of this year. Of course, there are other directions. But the focus is on these three things. These things must be handled properly. If they are not handled well, hidden dangers will easily arise."

Zhu Shanchang said slowly: "Up to now, all of you are advancing around this matter. As for the rest of your thoughts, don't worry about it, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison.

When Sima Chong heard this, a flash of light flashed in his mind. He thought of Mo Liu, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, who brought cement to him and said that cement was very useful and could be used for many purposes.

However, Sima Chong refused and called back directly.Now it seems that why he was asked to retire was not only because of the train station team, but also because of the cement problem.

This is the reason.

Sima Chong felt even more regretful in his heart.

I knew this, why should I be at the beginning?

Zhu Shanchang glanced at Sima Chong, and continued: "Everyone, the general direction is like this. Now, go to your own business, especially Yuan Cang, you just entered the cabinet, in my opinion, because you are familiar with Yushitai matters. You are mainly in charge of these affairs now."

"Yes!"

Yuan Cang answered immediately.

A group of people said their goodbyes and left. After everyone withdrew, Mi Huang returned to his office first.After he sat for a while, the expression on his face changed again and again.

He was very unwilling.

why?

Why is he only a member of the cabinet? Even in the current cabinet, although all government affairs are discussed by the cabinet members, in fact, there are some in charge.

What Mi Huang is in charge of is a matter for the Ministry of Rites.The household department of his old business was arrested by Zhu Shanchang, and he had no access to real government affairs at all.

After Mi Huang had an idea in his mind, he left the office directly, went to the palace, and asked to see Mi Zhen.The news from the palace was that Mi Zhen was doing things outside and not in the palace.

What Mi Zhen does is to assist Zhao Yuyan.

Both of them are in business, and the scope of business now, not only the high-end Wuliangye, but also perfume, and more industries are included in the scope of Zhao Yuyan and Mi Zhen's industries.

Other than that, the catering is the same.

Mi Huang went directly to find Mi Zhen, at this time Zhao Yuyan and Mi Zhen were together.

Mi Huang bowed and saluted, and said: "Minister Mi Huang, I pay my respects to the empress, the imperial concubine."

Zhao Yuyan said: "Let's talk, I have some things to do first."

She just left.

In the room, only Mi Huang and Mi Zhen are left.

Mi Huang looked at Mi Zhen in front of him, and immediately knelt on the ground with a plop.This scene startled Mi Zhen, he hurried forward to help Mi Huang up, and said: "Brother, what are you doing, get up quickly."

"I won't get up, if you don't promise me, I won't get up."

Mi Huang answered directly.

His attitude is very tough.

Seeing this, Mi Zhen narrowed her eyes, she stopped supporting her, instead she took a few steps back, returned to her seat and sat down, saying: "Brother, what do you mean?"

Mi Huang said: "Little sister, big brother has nowhere to go, now only you can help me."

Mi Zhen said: "What's the matter?"

Mi Huang said in a deep voice: "Now I am put aside by Your Majesty, and suppressed by Your Majesty. Even, His Majesty is going all out to suppress my Mi family, to suppress my Mi Huang. At any rate, my Mi family will also be established for the establishment of Qi State. He has made great achievements. Now, he has been hit and suppressed in all directions, how unfair is it?"

"Why does the queen's father, Zhao Shao, as the head of the logistics department, hold great power. The queen's family members can enter the army and develop in the army."

"I am from the Mi family, but I am restrained everywhere."

"Even I am swaying. I was originally capable, but now I am more restricted and unable to display my ambitions."

Mi Huang said: "Little sister, you are not in the officialdom, so you don't know the difficulties of the officialdom. My current situation is too embarrassing and difficult. My little sister, if you don't help me, then my Mi family, It's going to decline."

Mi Zhen waved her hand and said, "Brother, get up and talk."

"I can't get up."

Mi Huang shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't help me, then I won't be able to kneel down. The life and death of our Mi family is in your hands. Little sister, until now, you still have to sit idly by , do you still want to watch?"

Mi Zhen said: "Brother, you don't say anything, just like this as soon as you come up, what do you want me to do? Anyway, tell me about it in detail."

Mi Zhen knew about Mi Huang's political ambitions.

Mi Zhen has always been against this matter.

Under such circumstances, Mi Zhen disapproved of Mi Huang very much, the conflict between the two parties has always existed.But Mi Zhen just turned a blind eye, and Mi Huang didn't look for her much anyway.

Mi Huang quickly said: "When the cabinet was formed before, His Majesty arranged for Zhu Shanchang to be the first assistant, so that's all. I can't win him. However, I have no problem at all as the second assistant of the cabinet."

"How did His Majesty arrange for Sima Chong, a person who has surrendered to the Qi State, to serve as the cabinet's second assistant?"

"I'll just let it go. I didn't quarrel. I don't care about this matter. But now, His Majesty has dismissed Sima Chong and vacated the position of the second assistant in the cabinet, but His Majesty has arranged for Lan Yu to take over."

"He, Lan Yu, is nothing. A junior, in terms of merit and qualifications, he is far inferior to me. But now, he has been assigned to the position of the cabinet's second assistant."

"I'm not reconciled, I'm not convinced."

Mi Huang's eyes widened, the pupils were already bloodshot, he gritted his teeth, and said almost hysterically: "Little sister, all this is because of your lack of cooperation. You have influence in front of His Majesty."

"As long as you personally persuade His Majesty and blow the pillow, I will definitely be able to serve as the cabinet's second assistant. But you have always been wise and safe, and you have always kept me in the dark, making me difficult everywhere."

"You know, there is nothing in the world that cannot be disputed. If you don't fight, people will oppress you. If you don't fight, people will target you everywhere. If I don't fight, it will be difficult for my family to develop."

"Little sister, big brother has become like this now, do you still want to stand on the sidelines?"

After Mi Zhen listened, she immediately understood.
