Dongchang needs talents like you

Chapter 5 Working hard to be a father Day 5:

Imperial Palace, Supervisor of Rituals.

The Supervisor of Rituals, located behind the slope of Wujiang Mountain in the Forbidden City, has started another busy day.Since the beginning of its fortune here, it has always been such a bustling scene full of crowds and palace people.

All the little eunuchs who passed by were full of longing and yearning for this official office, which was not half the size of the inner prison next to it.

When Daqi founded the country, the "Twelve Supervisors" were established in Da Nei to facilitate the management of all eunuchs and the internal affairs of the palace.The Twelve Supervisors, as the name suggests, are twelve inner court agencies responsible for different internal affairs.Among them, the supervisor of ceremonies is the most respected.

At the beginning of the birth of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, they were only in charge of palace etiquette, but with the unremitting efforts of generations of palm seals, they have the privilege of "approving red".This should be the exclusive administrative prerogative of the emperor.The emperor didn't want to delegate to the cabinet, and he was too lazy to work, so he pushed it to the eunuchs around him. After a long period of time, the supervisor of ceremonies became the dominant family today.

The current supervisor of ceremonies even has the ostentatious title of "the first department in the Ouchi".

The head of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, that is, the palm print eunuch of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, even has the wild title of "Neixiang", and he is the same as the Chief Assistant.The inspector of ceremonies and the cabinet can complement each other, or they can compete against each other.

This is also the reason why Chi Ning deliberately wants to enter the Prison of Rituals. He also wants to control the thunder and lightning and call the wind and rain.

If Chi Ning's master is still there, nothing happened to the late emperor, and everything goes smoothly, then Chi Ning does have a chance to enter the Wenhua Hall.All the eunuchs knew that with the gilding of the Wenhua Hall, the next step was to be directly promoted to the Supervisor of Rituals.

However, Chi Ning was stuck at this step. First, he said that he was too young and lacked experience, and later he said that he was rebellious and unruly, and had no overall perspective... In short, starting from here, Chi Ning's road to power and officialdom will not be successful. Not going in a very different direction.Fortunately, Chi Ning's biggest characteristic is that he can think openly. Since the serious way can't work, then don't blame him for taking a slant and starting from Dongchang.

It doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat.

In fact, Dongchang had the privilege to hand over memorials directly to the emperor's desk, but Chi Ning did not do so. His invitation to An Zhezi is now carelessly placed on the desks of several eunuchs in the hall. Just hit it down and let them figure it out.

A few eunuchs who looked more like sisters than brothers stared at the book, worrying so much that their "beautiful" faces were about to have several wrinkles.

"Let's see what we do? How?"

"Pass it in to offend Mu Chen's faction, but don't hand it in to offend Dongchang. Why does Mr. Lin insist on making troubles for us? He has so many enemies in the twelve prisons, and he is exposed to rain and dew, so go make things difficult for others."

"What does Chi Lin mean by that?"

"What do you mean? I think he did it on purpose. Seven of them were dissatisfied and eight of them were unhappy. They planned to fight the higher-ups."

"I suggest, just press it down. Wait for ten and a half months, and when the matter of Dongchang's palm print is resolved, Chi Ning's good days will come to an end!"

The last eunuch who spoke was the brother of eunuch Ma, and the two were known as "big horses".The eunuch Xiao Ma naturally didn't want Chi Ning to come back to disrupt the situation, and let his brother miss the hand of Dongchang.

When the other people heard that Xiao Ma was so confident, they also followed the trend and chose to let it go.Anyway, the Ma brothers are still holding on to the sky falling.

Now, all the big eunuchs who didn't want Chi Ning to come back are satisfied.

***

At this time, Chi Ning, who was far away in the south of the city, still didn't know anything about what happened in the Supervisor of Rites. He was solving the dinner problem for his baby Wu Mu.

【What should I do to send you flowers?Sacrifice my son? 】

Yuan Jun: [...It doesn't matter, you just let him get close. 】

【How close? 】

[I said stop and stop. 】

After Yuan Jun finished speaking, Chi Ning made a gesture of waving towards Su Ren. His fingers were flexible and his skin was fair. It looked like a pair of hands that had been carefully maintained and did not work often.The action is like teasing a cat, there is no malice, it is just like this.

Su Ren was very obedient, and he really came over when he said he would come forward.If Chi Ning didn't shout to stop, he dared to keep approaching.

Su Ren not only brought the faint fragrance of books on his body, but also smelled the good fragrance of distant mountains on Chi Ning.Chi Ning has no taste. His consistent standard for using things is simple and rude "not seeking the best, but seeking the most expensive". Yuanshan Xiang is undoubtedly the most suitable for Chi Ning's needs. It is not only expensive, but also difficult to obtain.

Everything in the world is expensive for a reason, just like this fragrance from distant mountains, sweet but not greasy, calm and mellow, but with a natural overbearing, it has already invaded all the sense of smell without knowing it.

Su Ren looked at the godfather in front of him who was younger than himself, like a jade mountain, his face blushed inexplicably, and he couldn't help but want to get close.

Chi Ning finally waited for Yuan Jun's "stop", and couldn't wait to shout out.He actually doesn't like being close to people, it makes him very insecure.

Chi Ning seemed to be stroking Su Ren's neck, but in fact he picked today's delicacy for Yuan Jun.

In Yuan Jun's words, the taste of "passion" is like a dessert, sour and sweet, it melts in the mouth.The more paranoid the other party is towards Su Ren, and the more sins he commits, the better the taste of "love obsession".If you don't solve the source, Yuan Jun can even eat it in a circular way.

【thanks for treatment. 】

Chi Ning took advantage of the situation and changed the direction of his hand, moved it from under Su Ren's neck to his shoulder, patted it, and acted like a loving old father.

Su Ren didn't know if it was his own illusion. His neck, which had been quite tired recently, relaxed a lot in an instant after Chi Ning stroked it with one hand.It seems that there is a burden that I don't know, and it is easily resolved by Chi Ning.

Chi Ning narrowed his eyes and asked, "Did you occasionally appear sluggish and confused recently?"

Su Ren nodded truthfully: "Yes." Moreover, this dazed state lasted longer and longer, and he even began to feel as if someone hugged him while he was dazed, and tightened his grip until he suffocated.

"It won't happen in the future." Chi Ning assured Su Ren with a smile, "Father will make that person pay the price."

Chi Ning never relents when he uses his son, but if he knows who else dares to bully his son besides him, then he will definitely make the other party regret being born in this world!

That's how he protects his weaknesses, he is the only one who can bully his son!

Of course, Chi Ning must be famous for doing good deeds, and he is not afraid that Su Ren will see something.It is also a good way to use mysterious power to build prestige.When the other party does not know your details, the more unpredictable you are, the less likely the other party will dare to commit the crime.If Chi Ning wants to be a good head of the big family, he must have some different skills.

"Father said..." Su Ren actually had doubts about his abnormality a long time ago, but he endured it until now because he had no solution.

So when Chi Ning said it, Su Ren believed it.

Before the father and son had a detailed discussion, a major event happened in the palace.No news about the specific major event has been leaked out. Everyone only knows that the curfew has been brought forward, and every household has closed their doors and windows. Chi Ning's sons can no longer be invited to come here. situation.

Chi Ning is not curious about what happened, because he will know soon.

The next day, Xia Xia, who was finally able to free up his hands, narrated the whole story in front of Chi Ning in a serious and careful manner.This matter has a lot to do with the rebellious party that Xia Xia is in charge of investigating. Xia Xia is in charge of supervising it, so there is no need to worry about it for the time being.On the contrary, Xia Xia was a little anxious about Chi Ning: "Don't you really need me to talk about your affairs with His Majesty?"

"I know it in my heart." Chi Ning shook his head, "You should be busy with the things at hand recently, don't always run this way."

The martial law has not yet ended for this day, and everyone is not allowed to move around at will. People in the capital are panicked and rumors are everywhere.Su Zhuangyuan, who had to stay overnight at Chi Ning's house last night, still had to stay temporarily at the mansion today. Fortunately, he caught up with Xiu Mu, otherwise Su Zhuangyuan would not be able to explain to others why he stayed at the eunuch's private house in Dongchang.

Some people can't walk around at will, so naturally there are privileged classes who can trample on all laws in the world.

Princess Kangle asked someone to set up a car early in the morning and went straight to the palace.Even though she heard that the new emperor was talking with his ministers inside, she still rushed into the palace regardless of the obstruction.Her elder brother is the deceased Emperor Su. No matter who is in the ninety-five positions now, they have to call her "aunt". She can afford the airs of this elder.

Under the solemn sapphire blue court dress, is the eldest princess who is not at all solemn in etiquette.

"Ke'er, you have to decide for my Shi Bao."

The new emperor, Wen Ke, valued etiquette. Before he ascended the throne, he had already had an ugly fight with his courtiers because of etiquette, and now he has not come to the court for several days because of the dispute over etiquette.Seeing his aunt acting so recklessly, Wen Ke's heart immediately filled with displeasure.But thinking of the kindness that Princess Kangle had shown him when he was a vassal, Wen Ke still tried his best to stretch his brows, and went to help the old princess himself.

"What does Auntie mean? What happened to Shibao?"

Princess Kangle has only two grandchildren, the promising one died in battle, and the ignorant one lived in a very dangerous way.No matter what, she wanted to save him: "Shi Bao was arrested by the East Factory!"

With just a few words, Princess Kangle described the matter between Wen Shibao and Chi Ning as Chi Ning's private revenge.

"Shi Bao just joked with him, and he just made a big fuss like this..." Princess Kangle acted like an ignorant woman, she cried, made trouble and hanged herself, as if she only wanted to save Shi Bao from coming out.

"Oh?"

The young Xindi was not fooled by the Eldest Princess, not only that, but he also raised his eyebrows and lowered his voice, which was a sign of his anger.

"Does my aunt really know nothing about what happened?"

Princess Kangle is indeed a woman who was born and raised in the harem, her face has no guilty conscience, and she still looks like a kind and self-respecting shrew: "Your Majesty, what does this mean?"

What I mean is that it is false for my aunt to intercede for her grandson, and it is true that she wants to clear the Princess House of suspicion in the case last night!

It's impossible for my aunt to find out that her grandson was locked up in Dongchang today, right?Why didn't you come to me and talk to me then, why did you become anxious today?

Play palace fights with me?Who has not been born in this palace and brought up in this palace?

Wen Ke's lips moved slightly, and after struggling several times, he finally swallowed the words that were on his lips.After all, it was out of etiquette to swear at elders, but apart from swearing, he had nothing to say to Princess Kangle.

The new emperor not only requires others to observe etiquette and restraint, but also is so strict with himself.

He closed his eyes, took a deep, deep breath, and then regained his sanity, and deliberately confronted his aunt in a tone that was very unhappy when he heard it: "Oh? The companion has returned to Beijing?"

"Banban" is a way for members of the royal family to address the eunuchs around them.

"I don't even know about this, didn't he hand in the paperwork?" Wen Ke looked at the eunuch Bingbi who was in charge of the ceremony, and the one on duty today was Shang Er.

Eunuch Shang is in his prime of life, Kongwu is powerful, although he is not an old man when the new emperor retired, he is known as "upright" in the court.He didn't know how to say that someone suppressed Chi Ning's papers, but he also explained that Chi Ning's papers were handed in yesterday.

"Why don't you announce it quickly? I'm looking for him for something." The new emperor completely ignored Princess Kangle.

What else does Princess Kangle not understand?She quickly received the signal, and with the vision that a "foolish old woman" shouldn't have, she knelt down numbly.

When the eunuch delivering the decree arrived at Qingshi Lane, Chi Ning had already changed into his official uniform and was waiting in the hall.That's why he even wanted to take down Wen Shibao, no matter whether Princess Kang Le was pretending to be stupid or smart, she was his ladder to heaven.

The harder the other eunuchs suppressed him, the more he could make a good impression in front of the new emperor of "being bullied and still insisting on keeping the etiquette".
