Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

Qing'er has grown up in the Zhong Mansion since she was a child. What she faces every day is nothing more than Zhong Yi and the maids and servants of the Zhong Mansion. Her interpersonal relationships are simple, she has never seen the dangerous world outside, and her mind is extremely simple.

She didn't have any scheming, and her words were a little unguarded, but they were all truthful.

Of course, we have to exclude some nonsense that little girls don’t understand.

Princess Anyang was pierced through Qing'er's heart and left angrily. The master and servant looked at each other. Tangning patted her head and said, "You can't speak so frankly in the future, even if you are telling the truth, you know?" ?”

Qing'er nodded and said cutely: "Qing'er knows."

Tang Ning kept a distance from Princess Anyang, not just because he didn't like such occasions. He was now the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and was in the court, so he didn't do things as he pleased before.

Students from the Gyeonggi area will occupy a large part of the court in the future. As a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, it is naturally not appropriate to meet them before the imperial examination.

After all, his Minister of Civil Affairs, unlike his previous deputy minister, is the second-in-command of the Ministry of Civil Affairs who truly holds real power. He is more concerned about some malicious rumors than before.

Tang Ning has already completed five of the six departments of official, household, ritual, military, punishment, and work, and is only missing the last one of the work department before she can complete her merits.

Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Industry has the lowest say. Above the court, the status of the Minister of the Ministry of Industry is even lower than that of a minister in the Ministry of Husband and the Ministry of Officials.

Although the Ministry of Industry does not have a high voice and does a thankless job, there is one thing that the other five ministries cannot match.

That is, the Ministry of Industry has sufficient oil and water. Palace construction, city wall maintenance, canal excavation, road construction, and the development of various mineral deposits are all under the management of the Ministry of Industry.

None of these projects require money. Although the Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the national treasury, it only has the right to dispatch and not use. The Ministry of Works is different. These funds are allocated by the Ministry of Works. Officials from the Ministry of Works want to take some action in this. Hands and feet, natural and simple.

"I respectfully welcome your lord..."

When Tang Ning arrived at the Ministry of Works, officials from the Ministry of Works stood at the yamen gate and warmly welcomed his arrival.

The Ministry of Works has four departments under it, namely the Works Department, the Tuntian Department, the Yubu Department, and the Water Department. There is a minister and a minister who are in charge of all matters.

Tang Ning came to the Ministry of Works for the first time today, but she did not see the Minister of Works or the Minister of Works.

He looked at the doctor from the Ministry of Works and asked, "Where are the ministers and ministers?"

The doctor from the Ministry of Works glanced at him and murmured to himself, why are the Minister and the Minister not in the Ministry of Works today? Does Mr. Tang really have no idea?

He walked all the way from the Sixth Ministry, with a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood behind him. His official position was getting higher and higher. When he was still in charge, he was able to defeat the assistant minister. When he became the assistant minister, even Feng Xiang packed up and returned to his hometown. Every time he arrived There will be no peace for any one of them, without any exception. As long as the minister and the minister have some brains, they know that they should avoid their sharp edges during this period.

He looked at Tang Ning, smiled apologetically and said, "Your Excellency, the Minister, went to the north a few days ago to supervise the construction of the post road. He will not be back for a few months. Your Excellency, the Minister, is ill and is recuperating at home. He is not at the Yamen today..."

In this way, he is the only one in charge of the Ministry of Works.

What made Tang Ning happy was that the Minister of Industry and the Vice Minister were both absent from the yamen for good reasons. It was not because they avoided him as a broom star. Those people were not clean under their own skin. Instead of looking for the reasons themselves, they blamed him. They simply have erroneous views. The imperial court does not need these guys with erroneous views and righteous butts.

The absence of the Minister of Industry means that Tang Ning can occupy a duty room by herself in the past few months, so it should be quieter.

After entering the Ministry of Industry, all the officials went back to their offices. Tang Ning turned to look at the person behind her and said, "Mr. Zhang, long time no see."

Zhang Hao, the doctor of the Ministry of Water, looked at him with a complicated expression, and said with cupped hands: "I have met Lord Tang."

Three years ago in Lingzhou, it was also at this time that as an examiner for the Lingzhou State Examination, he discovered the differences between Tang Ning and other candidates in terms of policy analysis, and tried his best to distinguish his examination paper from the other candidates. , to prevent his test paper from being failed.

At that time, one of them was a doctor from the Ministry of Water and the other was just a student from a remote county. Zhang Hao admired him very much and even considered recruiting him to the Ministry of Water.

Then three years later, he had reached the third rank and appeared in the Ministry of Works for the first time as his immediate superior.

Three years is not a long time. During these three years, he has remained motionless in his position as a doctor in the Ministry of Water. The student from a remote state capital has already soared into the sky...

Tang Ning had heard Zhang Hao's name before. Although his official position was not high, he was well-known in the court.

Mainly because he is an upright person and doesn't know how to beat around the bush. He often gets angry when arguing with others because of his different political opinions. Not many officials in the court treat him well.

Because of this, he has been sitting in the position of Doctor of the Water Department for more than ten years.Normally, with his qualifications, he would have been able to climb up a few more levels.

However, it was precisely because of his persistence that Tang Ning's test papers were able to stand out in the state examination. Without Zhang Hao, his imperial examination path might have come to an end in Lingzhou.

To a certain extent, Zhang Hao, a doctor in the Ministry of Water, was kind to him.

"You're welcome, Mr. Zhang." Tang Ning smiled and said, "If it weren't for Mr. Zhang's support back then, how could we be where we are today?"

Zhang Hao said with a solemn expression: "Master Tang, you are serious. Zhang just did what Zhang should do. Master Tang can reach this point only because of Master Tang's talent and hard work..."

Zhang Hao, the doctor of the Ministry of Water, is indeed a serious and upright person. Such a person can be a good official, but rarely a high official.

His character and conduct have blocked his path to promotion.

There are many people like Zhang Hao in the officialdom, but most of them succumbed to reality in the end.

Tang Ning is the Minister of Civil Affairs and the Acting Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Although he cannot change the rules of officialdom on a large scale, he can still uphold justice on a small scale.

Ministry of Industry, another value room.

The four ministers gathered together and chatted quietly. The focus of discussion was naturally the new minister.

The Tuntian Secretary said: "When Mr. Cui heard that Mr. Tang was coming, he took away the errand that was supposed to be Mr. Zhang and went to the northwest overnight. He was a little too decisive."

The doctor from the Ministry of Industry said: "It's understandable that Cui Shilang is afraid of Master Tang. How come even Wu Shangshu said he was ill at home? Is Master Wu also afraid?"

"Who is not afraid of the broom star?" The doctor of the Yu Department shook his head and said: "Even Prime Minister Feng is in his hands. No matter how high the official position of Wu Shangshu is, is it bigger than Prime Minister Feng?"

Zhang Hao looked at them and said: "We'd better not talk about you adults behind your back. This is not what a gentleman does..."

The Tuntian doctor looked at him, shook his head, and said: "We are not like Mr. Zhang. We have been kind to Mr. Tang. He can't defeat anyone but you, so naturally we have to be more careful."

The doctor from the Ministry of Works thought for a moment and said, "Yes, Mr. Zhang is kind to Mr. Tang. This time Mr. Tang comes to the Ministry of Works, and he himself is the minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Doesn't Mr. Zhang have to stand out?"

The Tuntian doctor curled his lips and said: "Master Zhang can only be a minister if he is promoted. Cui Shilang has already gone to the northwest. You mean that Master Tang can take down Cui Shilang who is far away in the northwest if he is in the official department." , help Zhang Langzhong up?"

"That's not necessarily the case." The doctor from the Ministry of Industry looked at him and said, "Don't forget, he was far away in the south of the Yangtze River a few days ago, and he pulled Feng Xiang off his horse. What does it mean to be a mere minister of the Ministry of Industry?"

The Tuntian doctor thought for a while and whispered: "He can't be so cruel..."
