The cannon fodder through the book will live to the end

Tao Anling said forcefully: "Since this test is related to the establishment of a prince, it must be inseparable from governing the country. But governing the country is so difficult. There are three provinces and six ministries, nine temples and five prisons, and there are prefectures and counties. Personally, I think that the test will be set in the six parts. After all, the six parts have clear responsibilities and connect the past and the future, and it is the place where the prince's talents can be best tested."

Xiao Jingci's eyes lit up, "Not bad, what An Ling said is very true. I just don't know if these six parts will be tested individually, or together? But I'm afraid we will know tomorrow morning."

Tao Anling smiled and said: "My lord has both ability and political integrity, no matter what test he is going to be able to win."

Xiao Jingci smiled warmly and said: "I hope so, I'm afraid Anling's help will be needed then."

Tao Anling immediately replied: "It's an honor."

......

At the court meeting on the second day, the ministers who went to court after going to court late at night were a little tired because of the festive carnival.After the courtiers played, there was no major event.Emperor Jinde motioned to Wang Lu next to him to announce the decree.

Wang Lu took a step forward, unfolding the imperial decree and proclaiming: "Follow the heavens, the emperor ordered it. I am old, and I am afraid that I will be powerless in political affairs, so I want to establish a prince. However, the two princes are smart and quick-witted. It is not beneficial to the country. In order to ensure fairness, the two princes are now ordered to take turns to practice in the six departments. The first phase of April will be supervised by all the ministers. The one who is outstanding will be the prince. From now on, the king of Zhenbei will serve in the Ministry of Rites, and the king of Liang will go to the Ministry of Rites. Served in the Ministry of Punishment. Thank you!"

The court was quiet for a moment, and then became noisy in an instant.The courtiers were at a loss for Emperor Jinde's arrangement.Before they could prevent it, the ministers wanted to discuss it with their colleagues around them.

Although Xiao Jingyu was also surprised, he quickly came to his senses and stepped forward to receive the order.Xiao Jingci also reacted quickly and took a step forward together.

Xiao Jingyu: "My son obeys the order."

Xiao Jingci: "My son obeys the order."

Now that the princes have agreed to receive the decree, the ministers who wanted to persuade the emperor to take back the order also shut up.They saluted unanimously and said: "I will obey the order."

Emperor Jin De looked at the two sons in the hall, and then at the ministers who stopped talking, his eyes were deep, but he nodded with satisfaction on his face.

Since he was going to serve in the Sixth Ministry, Xiao Jingyu took advantage of the opportunity to follow the Minister of the Ministry of Rites to the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites.Ding Zhang, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, obeyed the order and brought Xiao Jingyu back to the yamen, but he kept muttering in his heart.The Holy Majesty only said that the two lords would be allowed to take six rotations to practice, but there was no specific regulation on how to do it.

If Zhenbei Wang Wangzhen is used as a small official in the yamen, if Zhenbei King ascends to a high position in the future, remembering that he was used by a small official in the past, it is estimated that the entire Ministry of Rites will have a hard time.But if the king of Zhenbei is left in the yamen directly, it is not in line with the imperial edict's rotation experience.

So how should we deal with King Zhenbei who landed suddenly in the Ministry of Rites? Shangshu Dingzhang has been thinking about this issue related to his future all the way.

He didn't think of a reason until he returned to the Yamen.However, he politely led King Zhenbei to the central hall of the yamen, and while ordering people to make tea, he said: "My lord, please sit down for a while and drink some tea. I still have some things to deal with. If the hospitality is not good, Please forgive me."

Xiao Jingyu glanced around the surroundings, nodded and said, "Your Majesty Ding, if you have something to do, feel free to help, and if there is anything I can help you with, feel free to speak up."

Shangshu Dingzhang quickly replied: "Don't bother the prince, it's just some trivial matters. Please rest for a while, the prince. I will leave first."

Ding Zhang left King Zhenbei to drink tea in the middle hall, and hurriedly withdrew.After leaving the central hall some distance away, he immediately summoned two servants of the Ministry of Rites to discuss how to place the giant Buddha that was descended in the yamen.

Xiao Jingyu sat comfortably on the teacher's chair, knowing that Ding Zhang must have gone to someone to discuss the arrangement for him.He had a flat face, as if it had nothing to do with him.However, he was still a little restless.The reason is the sudden experience of six rotations.

He had received news a long time ago that his father intended to put a test on them, and the one who chose the best would be the crown prince.He also imagined what kind of test it would be?But what I never expected was that they were actually asked to practice in the six parts and be inspected by hundreds of officials.

But now it’s useless to think about these things. Now it’s time to think about how to stand out in the experience and make people feel convincing.

Xiao Jingyu looked at the calligraphy and painting of "Shang Shan Ruo Shui" hanging on the hall, and sighed in his heart: Is it the Ministry of Rites?

When Xiao Jingyu was thinking about life in the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, Tao Anran was too busy in the mansion to have time to think about it.

In the morning, Tao Anran got a good night's sleep as usual, and when she got up, Xiao Jingyu had already gone to bed early.While lamenting that Xiao Jingyu went to court earlier than going to work, he happily washed and ate.

His original arrangement was to take a good stroll in the capital today.After all, after coming here, apart from last night's Lantern Festival, he didn't take a good look at the bustling here during the day.But what he didn't expect was that when he was about to go out, the housekeeper Wang Dahai came over with several boxes of books.

Tao Anran felt a little familiar when he saw this situation.It seems that once upon a time, Steward Li from Yunzhou also came to see him like this.At that time, it was because Xiao Jingyu asked him to be in charge of Zhongfu, so Steward Li brought him all the account books and treasury keys of the mansion over the years.

When Tao Anran was thinking that it must not be the same situation, the housekeeper Wang Dahai spoke up. He first greeted him, and then said: "Princess, this is the account book of the mansion over the years, and there is also a list of the treasury. There are palace records on it. The list of rewards over the years, the list of things sent out, and the details of transactions."

Tao Anran looked at the account books which were even more than the original Yunzhou Prince's Mansion, and said inwardly, "So many?"

Wang Dahai said with a smile: "The princess is joking, these are just the bills of recent years, and the account books before the establishment of the mansion are still behind. It should have been brought to you on the day the princess returned to the mansion, but the things are too complicated , so it was postponed until today to bring it for your review."

Tao Anran's eyes had already started to get dizzy, he had just returned to the mansion for two days, so he was going to get busy again?He really regretted that he had promised Xiao Jingyu to be in charge of Zhongfu. From then on, he had to look over all the big and small things in the mansion.But it's too late to regret now.

It seems that today's travel plan is in vain.

Tao Anran waved his hands weakly and said, "Let's carry the box to the yard first, and I'll come and see it later."

Wang Dahai responded quickly, and then directed the boy to put the boxes neatly in a corner of the yard.

Tao Anran sat down at the table again, trying to pull herself together.Fortunately, he was not alone, besides Bai Lu Hanlu, a pair of capable assistants.Bai Lu Han Lu is also an experienced person. Back then, the account books of the Yunzhou Prince's Mansion could be made clear, so naturally they can now.

So the three of them are together, with previous experience, but they are also orderly while busy.This is a busy day.And Tao Anran didn't see Xiao Jingyu for a day.

At noon, when he was alone at the table, he remembered that he hadn't seen Xiao Jingyu.Because usually no matter how busy they are, they try to eat all three meals together.I didn't see him today, so I was a little worried.

Tao Anran originally wanted to wait for Xiao Jingyu, fearing that he forgot to eat because he was too busy.Xiao Man, who was still accompanying Xiao Jingyu, came back to report that the prince had something to eat outside, so Tao Anran settled down and had lunch.

After Tao Anran finished his lunch and took a short nap, he was busy arranging the account books again.This time he was busy until the evening, seeing that Xiao Jingyu had also returned home, Tao Anran took a rest.Save the rest of the account books for tomorrow.

Not long after Xiao Jingyu returned to the mansion, it was dark, and dinner was naturally set up.

Tao Anran sat at the table, and while serving food for Xiao Jingyu, he asked curiously: "Where did the prince eat at noon? Why didn't you come back?"

Xiao Jingyu also brought some food for the concubine, and replied after hearing the words: "I ate at the yamen of the Ministry of Rites at noon, and the food is not as delicious as in the mansion. Besides, I probably won't have time to have lunch with you again except for the rest of the month. And when I go to the Yamen in the morning, I have to bring lunch to eat in the Yamen."

Tao Anran looked puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Xiao Jingyu replied: "Eat first, I will talk to you slowly."

Next, while eating, Tao Anran listened to Xiao Jingyu talk about his experience in the Ministry of Rites.Tao Anran's own understanding is that the heirs of the group will be delegated to the grassroots, starting from the grassroots, and whoever has the best grades in the end will be the president of the group.This will not only allow the heirs to understand the operation of the group, but also allow people in the group to witness and be convinced.

Tao Anran felt that the six-part rotation experience is really a good way.

But thinking of Xiao Jingyu's hard work and experience in the future, Tao Anran took a chopstick of meat into his bowl with distress, "My lord, eat more meat for supplements, I'm afraid you will have to work hard in the future."

Xiao Jingyu took it with a smile and ate it.The food at noon tasted really mediocre, he didn't eat much, he was already hungry, so he had to eat more at night.

After dinner, Xiao Jingyu asked the concubine to go back to rest first, while he went to the study to do some work.

In the study, Yan Zhen, who arrived early, was drinking tea.

Xiao Jingyu also sat down and took a sip of tea before asking, "Mister, do you know what happened today?"

Yan Zhen replied seriously: "What the lord is asking is, today, His Majesty asked the two lords to go to the six parts to practice, and then choose the best one to be the prince?"

Xiao Jingyu raised his eyebrows, "It turns out that Mister already knows."

Yan Zhen waved his hand and said: "Now not only I know, but I am afraid that the whole capital knows. Soon, the whole world will know. I heard that it is written in the imperial decree that it is the supervision of all officials. In my opinion, there will be more In the previous sentence, the people witnessed."

Xiao Jingyu's eyes were dark, and he replied: "Sir, you are wise. The establishment of a crown prince is a major national event, and it is normal for the people to witness it. I just don't know what you think of the Ministry of Rites?"

Yan Zhen stroked his beard, thought for a while and replied: "The Ministry of Rites is mainly responsible for the world's etiquette, sacrifices, and tributes. This department is not comparable to the Ministry of Officials, and it is not taken seriously. But the prince went to the Ministry of Rites, and it seems that His Majesty is partial. "
