Chapter 848 Promotion for Gu Zhenkang
Also the Chu Family were not in a good relationship with the Gu Family at all.
So when the King was discussing this matter with him, he was basically put into a dilemma. Also, Chu Tian wondered if the King was testing his tendency or not.
The Chu Family had had the tradition of working for the court throughout the generations, and Chu Tian finally became the Prime Minister of the Saint Divine Land.
The reason why the Chu Family were able to stay in the official rank throughout the generations, was only because they had one rule – they worked for the King, not for the princes.
However, now he was confronted with the issue of dealing with a prince. The situation right now was becoming quite complicated.
Destiny Monk had predicted that the Princess Consort of Lord Ling was the Phoenix Girl, so no one had any idea of what would happen to Lord Ling in the future.
More than half of the ministers in the court had already taken Lord Ling’s side, yet the Chu Family had not yet made the decision. Because of that, Lord Ling was not so friendly towards the Chu Family.
So how should he promote Princess Consort of Lord Ling’s father?
It was such a difficult issue for him!
Chu Tian had been sweating all this time. He gave it a thought for a long time before finally saying, “What do you think of the Ministry of Rites? Officer Gu Zhenkang has been working at Taipu Temple, which is in charge of the wagons and horses of the court, so it is quite reasonable that he is promoted to the Ministry of Rites. As for what happens after that… We can give it another thought later.”
The Ministry of Rites was in charge of the worship and systems as well as foreign affairs of the Saint Divine Land.
That was to say, the wedding of any prince was going to be in the charge of the Ministry of Rites.
The reason why Chu Tian would make the recommendation was because Gu Zhenkang was such an ordinary person that only when he was at the Ministry of Rites would he be able to skip making too many major mistakes.
Also, the Ministry of Rites was a very promising place. Someone like Gu Zhenkang would definitely love to work there.
When the King heard Chu Tian’s suggestion, he found the idea to sound good too. However, he still did not think that the position sounded that important. If this suggestion was given when Gu Ruxue was marrying Lord Ling, then that sounded nice, but at that time, the Phoenix Girl and Destiny Monk became the prevailing topics, and Gu Zhenkang’s rank was not yet considered… and when it was mentioned again, it was time for Lord Ling to be granted as the heir. Therefore, if Gu Zhenkang was promoted, then the reputation of the Princess Consort of the Heir would be raised as well.
So the position at the Ministry of Rites did not sound that weighty.
The King shook his head slightly. He did not think that Chu Tian was making a mistake… After all, Chu Tian did not know about the decision about the heir. Therefore, the King still thought that Chu Tian was doing a good job.
He thought for a while and said, “The Ministry of Rites is a very good department, but the Elder Young Master has already decided to stay away from any official rank and work for Lord Ling instead. That is a big sacrifice the Gu Family has made for us, so the position of the Ministry of Rites seems quite minor for Gu Zhenkang. I think that maybe he can be granted some affairs at the Ministry of Personnel instead. As for what position it should be… I will speak with the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel personally.”
“Mr. Chu, the other three countries are flourishing so we should not cease progressing. We have much to do, and you have much to do.”
The King consoled him, just because he denied his proposal.
Chu Tian was quite surprised. He had not expected that the King was still going to give him an important position.
“Okay!” Chu Tian answered politely.
The King nodded in satisfaction and added. “One more thing I would like you to do.”
