In the warm pavilion of Wende Hall, the heat from the charcoal fire increases the temperature inside along the hollow wall.Although it was already May at this time, it rained last night, and the officials were afraid of the cold, so except for summer, they could hardly leave the warm pavilion.

Chen Juncong and Meng Ruanqing were sweating on their backs within a short while, and Luo Zhongdan, who was under the official uniform, was sticking to his skin with sweat and itching.

The official family has faded away from the ochre-red court attire they wore during court meetings, and replaced them with ivory-white quilted water-pattern uniforms, revealing the crimson-coloured single collar inside.The Futou on the head has also been replaced with everyday soft feet.

"Officials."

The two people standing by the desk saluted at the same time, waiting for the official to explain why they came here.

The two of them lowered their eyes and only stared at the dark wooden boards under their feet.Xiao Liu'er had sharp eyes, saw the look of the official sitting at the table, and called the two little yellow men to bring in two wooden chairs and put them behind Chen Juncong and Meng Ruanqing.

"Sit down, gentlemen."

While the sleeves were waving, the official's voice was more approachable than during the court meeting.

Before the Heng Dynasty, officials always sat on their knees when they went to court.After the founding of the country, Taizu felt that it was extremely easy to fall asleep like that, so he changed to standing to discuss matters.

It's not uncommon for officials to grant seats. The two of them didn't feel any difference. They pinned the wat board between the leather belts, smoothed the hem of their clothes and sat down straight.I only thought that this summoning may take a long time.Otherwise, why give a seat?

Xiao Liu'er brought two cups of tea and put them in their hands, Fang quietly withdrew and closed the door.

Sitting is different from standing. When you raise your head slightly, you can see the face of the official.They speculated about the thoughts of the superiors in their hearts, and they could only roughly know that it was related to the restructuring.

Sure enough, after taking a sip of tea to soothe his throat, the official said, "Today's candidates from Jiangnan will go straight down without reaching the Ministry of Education, which is unreasonable. I'm afraid that the remonstrance court will submit a letter tomorrow."

The words seemed to have no beginning and no end, but both Chen Juncong and Meng Ruanqing understood why the officials summoned them.

If it is said that Yushitai is a picket and a hundred officials to collect public opinion.The Court of Admonishment is to discuss the gains and losses of the government.To put it bluntly, it belongs to the supervisory official.

If these officials are a little careless, they will be read by Yushitai, and it is not easy to be an official.However, the officials were also overwhelmed by the remonstrance court.

Now that Wu Shunqin went to Jiangnan, he didn't discuss and make a decision through the Ministry of Education in advance, so he was caught in a wrong place by the Court of Advice.

But these two sentences are not pouring bitter water on them, but have another deep meaning.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Juncong tried to ask, "The officials want to pick a candidate for the official?"

To reform the system, in addition to selecting talents for the new system, it is also necessary to cultivate the power of speech officials.Otherwise, while reforming the system, you have to endure the impeachment of the officials all over the sky, that's not good.

Meng Ruanqing thought that he was not as calm as Chen Juncong, so he just kept silent and listened.

The official tapped the case with his fingers, but did not agree, and asked instead: "Do you two have any recommended candidates?"

In fact, he wanted to see if the two could hold the position for the time being.But when we met, I felt inappropriate.Chen Juncong served as the Shaoqing of Sinong Temple, in charge of the official Lumi Supply and so on.And Meng Ruanqing's secretary Shaojian belongs to the Secretary Province and is responsible for the national history records.

Not to mention whether the official position can be moved or not, it is the temperament of the two people.One is too calm and honest, and the other is a bit reckless, neither is suitable.

Unable to advance or retreat, the officials are even more troubled.

"Can I choose from the second-class Jinshi in the new department?"

Meng Ruanqing suggested.But it was immediately vetoed by the officials.

"Tools are useless."

He and Mei Yanyu read all those people's theories together. Rigid remarks are considered first-class, let alone those times.

As soon as the words fell, Chen Juncong said something again.

"Taichangqing Pei Lian is the most suitable."
