The matter of being a pavilion boss is not something you want to be able to do.

For example, when Wang Shu first returned to the court, many people recommended Wang Shu to join the cabinet, saying that he was too old and should not do too hard work, so it was better to let him join the cabinet to participate in government affairs.

After Zhu Youtang heard this, he declined very politely.

First, he wanted Wang Shu, who had a high reputation, to continue to be in charge of the civil service and divide the power of Liu Ji, the chief assistant, so that even personnel appointments and removals would not be controlled by the cabinet.

Secondly, Zhu Youtang didn’t want to face Wang Shu every day.

His father, Emperor Xianzong, had objections to Wang Shu for no reason. Wang Shu was a man who liked to point fingers and would argue with reason in everything he encountered.

There was a time when Emperor Xianzong didn't want to really talk to Wang Shu, but Wang Shu was stunned and kept chasing him with more than 20 memorials to give his opinions. "Isn't it annoying?"

If Wang Shu was put into the cabinet, wouldn’t he be annoyed to death?

It would be better to put Wang Shu in charge of personnel arrangements in the Ministry of Personnel, so that he can still do practical things and not be chased and scolded every day.

This is not because Zhu Youtang is worried, but because Wang Shu can really do it.

When Zhu Youtang first came to the throne, he wanted to promote several eunuchs, but Wang Shu pursued him and asked him to withdraw his appointment.

Wang Shu was already in his seventies, and he couldn't hit or hide. Zhu Youtang could only hold his nose and admit it.

For the past two years, Zhu Youtang has refused the proposal to let Wang Shu join the cabinet, saying that the official department would allow Wang Shu to shine more.

This year, someone brought up old matters again, but Zhu Youtang was unexpectedly relieved.

If Wang Shu, the elder of the pavilion, had not just taken office, his grandson would not be so proud when he mentioned it.

Look at Liu Ji’s grandson, he’s used to being arrogant!

Regarding Zhu Youtang's new appointment, both the government and the public are speculating and waiting to see.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Liu Ji and Wang Shu will not deal with them.

In the past two years, many talents recommended by Wang Shu have been blocked by Liu Ji. Now Shengsong has arranged Wang Shu into the cabinet. Does he want them to fight against each other?

Has he finally gained Sheng's trust in Liu Ji?

Many people sensed the change in the direction of the wind and sent greetings to the Wang family one after another to see if there was any chance of joining forces with Liu Ji.

However, Wang Shu declined invitations from all parties on the grounds of old age and illness.

Wang Shu had been an official for thirty years. If he said that he had never thought about joining the cabinet, he would definitely be lying. But now that he finally came to this prestigious position that everyone envied, he suddenly became alert.

He is already over seventy years old. No matter how you calculate it, these should be his last years in the imperial court. He must not be left without a guarantee.

Even though the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty did not have the strict rule that "courtiers are not allowed to gather in private" and everyone still took pride in having officials all over the world, Wang Shu still did not want to give people the impression that he had just joined the cabinet and formed a crazy party.

Reputation is a double-edged sword. He was able to return to the imperial court and even be recommended to the cabinet by relying on his reputation. He may have been stabbed in the back because he failed to stand up for this last post.

In just half a month, everyone knew how difficult it was to get into the Wang family.

This is a very common thing. In the past, Wang Shu was very unselfish in appointing and dismissing personnel. He would not give any accommodation to anyone who came or left. Even when the holy father-in-law Shouning Bo Zhang Luan wanted to ask for a title, he directly wrote, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable."

”.

Why else would Zhu Youtang not want to have him by his side and see him every day?

Others wanted to see him, but Brother Wen was unexpectedly invited by Wangge's hometown. He said that the ice and snow had melted recently and the weather was getting warmer. He was invited to come over and enjoy the late plum blossoms. The winter plum blossoms were blooming very well this winter, and his family had already seen them.

I picked a lot and put it into tea. It was pleasant to drink and the fragrance left on my lips and teeth. It would be gone if it were later.

The signatures are Wang Chengyu and his nephew.

He was the kid who cried when he lost in the Shuntian mansion that day.

When Brother Wen heard this, he had never drunk wintersweet tea before and wanted to drink it!

This must go!

Brother Wen got this post and immediately ran to talk to his father about it.

Although he and that boy were not friends at all, his family had wintersweet tea!

Wang Hua: “…………”

Wang Chengyu actually knew his son's fatal weakness so accurately. He was indeed a good son who was usually responsible for following Wang Shu to welcome and send him off!

Since everyone else has been invited, Wang Hualan will not stop Brother Wen from going.

I don’t know how many people are trying to burn Mr. Wangge’s hot stove, and they all want to see Wu. I wonder how this bastard boy in his family got the luck to ask Mr. Wangge’s favorite son to post a message for him personally!

Wang Hua said: "Wang Ge is old and old. Don't make too much noise when you go to other people's homes. It will make you popular. Your father will no longer be an official."

King Shu was an old man in the court, and he promoted several of the twelve ministers in the northern and southern capitals.

If something happens to this kid, Wang Shu's life and death officials can drown him with just a drop of spit!

Brother Wen said: "Then I have to tell Mr. him!"

Despite his young age, Brother Wen is usually very busy, especially on holidays.

Xie Qian must go there, and Yang Tinghe cannot be left behind. There is still time to go to Qiu Jun's house to read.

After all, the court officials like him are only free at home during holidays, and the holiday times are the same!

So every Sunday, Brother Wen was as busy as a little spinning top.

There was another invitation suddenly, and he couldn't tell Xie Qian in advance, lest he specially set aside half a day for him.

Brother Wen had just asked Jin Sheng to help him run an errand, and then he received an invitation from his new friend Li Zhaoxian, saying that he would invite him to visit Li's house during the ten-day holiday.

Brother Wen: "..."

What should I do if the three-year-old me is too popular?

Since the invitation post was personally sent by Li Zhaoxian, Brother Wen directly told Li Zhaoxian that Wang Chengyu invited him first.

Li Zhaoxian was disappointed and asked curiously: "What did he ask you to do?"

Brother Wen didn't know, he felt puzzled. He guessed uncertainly: "The small one was beaten, and the big one came?"

Li Zhaoxian: "..."

What kind of strange statement is this?

The key is that although this statement is strange, it is still understandable!

Li Zhaoxian said: "Uncle Wang is not that kind of person."

He introduced Wang Chengyu to Brother Wen, saying that he could compose poems at the age of seven and had been steady and reliable since he was a child. Wang Shu was old and it was inconvenient to send him to welcome guests. He was the one who took care of the Wang family's reception of guests.

A few years ago, Wang Chengyu passed the provincial examination. If he had been willing to take the examination, he would have been a Jinshi! The main reason why he did not go to take the examination was because his brothers had all joined the officialdom and he had to leave someone to take care of his old father.

In other words, if someone is talented and knowledgeable and has a filial piety, how can he care about you as a child?

Brother Wen: “…………”

Well, Li Zhaoxian, you look like a good young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, how can you imitate your father's nonsense when he catches someone?

Is it unusual for a seven-year-old to be able to write poetry?

His brother can do it, his teacher Xie Qian can do it, and his teacher Yang Tinghe can still do it!

It can be seen that this is just the basic skill of Ming scholars!

The two chatted together for a while, but Li Zhaoxian left the post and asked Brother Wen to go to Wang's house to play in the morning and his house in the afternoon, without delaying either party!

The two families are not too far apart, so walking a few more steps won't tire Brother Wen.

As soon as Brother Wen thought about it, this was possible, and he immediately agreed.

Brother Wen sent Li Zhaoxian away, and Jin Sheng came back, but his expression was a bit off.

"What's the matter?"

Brother Wen couldn't help but ask.

Jin Sheng said: "It's nothing, it's Qiu Shangshu who doesn't seem happy."

Jin Sheng just visited the Xie family, Yang family, and Qiu family.

The Xie and Yang families just asked their subordinates to hand them over, but the Qiu family was the only one who bumped into Qiu Jun.

Qiu Jun was fine at first, but after he finished saying that Brother Wen was going to Wang's house for an appointment, Qiu Jun's face turned cold, and he coldly said, "Love will come or not."

Brother Wen was confused after hearing what Jin Sheng told him.

Could it be that Lao Qiu was particularly unhappy when he thought about not being able to see him during the weekend?

He, Wang Xiaowen, is so lovable!

Brother Wen said: "This is easy to handle, I'll go and coax him!"

After Jin Sheng heard what Brother Wen said, he and his nanny accompanied him out.

Not long after Qiu Jun arrived home, he heard someone said that Brother Wen had run over. He looked at Brother Wen who ran in with a sullen face: "It will be night time in another hour, what are you doing here? ?”

Brother Wen came over and said, "I heard from Jin Sheng that you are home. I see that the weather has come early."

Qiu Jun usually had to go to the Ministry of Etiquette to be on duty, so he came over to borrow books to see if he could find anyone. He did accumulate a lot of questions in the past few days. When he came, he immediately took out a book he had read yesterday, and moved next to Qiu Jun to start. Ask questions.

Qiu Jun glanced at him and finally solved Brother Wen's questions one by one as usual.
