When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were congratulating Ju Shangshu on his being granted the title of Prime Minister of Ju, only Cui Xuhong was waiting for the end of the congratulation.
When the hall of Supreme Harmony calmed down again, the emperor asked, "do you Aiqing have anything else to start?"
All the ministers were silent. At this time, they looked forward to the emperor's hasty announcement to withdraw from the court. They gathered to discuss how to deal with today's sudden appointment.
The emperor glanced around and was opening his mouth to retreat. Cui Xuhong stepped out steadily and said in a deep voice, "I have something to play."
The ministers looked at each other, and their eyes were clearly inquiring and expressing, "do you know what to play?"
Therefore, most of the courtiers looked at several courtiers subordinate to the work department, but no one went to see Xie Jiming. Originally, Xie Jiming, as a waiter of the work department, should have been the one who could best understand Cui Xuhong's mind, but no one in the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty knew that Xie Jiming was regarded as a hot potato and a stone.
Before the incident of King Yu's residence, the Ministry of work was crowding out and making trouble for him.
After the incident of King Yu's residence, no one made trouble for him. It was polite to him, put it on the shelf and stay away from him.
The remaining courtiers subordinate to the Ministry of work were asked by the eyes from all directions. Naturally, they had no clue. They shook their heads and looked at Cui Xuhong.
At this time, Jing Qibin is waiting for Cui Xuhong to say what kind of son ugly Yinmao.
Xiao Zimu was stunned for a moment, then reacted and looked at Xiao mubai. Xiao mubai's eyes fell on Cui Xuhong. Xiao Zimu had to take two steps forward and attach it to his ear. He whispered, "is it too fast?"
Xiao mubai turned to look at him and gave him a sign of calmness. Xiao Zimu had to retreat. He was a little uneasy. It would be good if he could make grandpa succeed in being granted the title today. The prime minister should stop here. Xie Jiming's work should be done slowly. Cui Xuhong was too anxious to stand up at this time.
In fact, the idea of early summer was the same as that of Xiao Zimu. He and Xiao mubai had a long dispute over when Cui Xuhong should speak.
Early Xia believed that Lord Ju had just been granted the prime minister, and the courtiers would inevitably have extremely strong resistance to his appointment, but they had to obey the emperor's insistence.
If Cui Xuhong raised the issue of Xie Jiming's ascendancy at this time, it is bound to cause the ministers to rebound. Such two important positions suddenly forcibly intervene in separate forces, which will make them resist with one heart at this moment.
But Xiao mubai insisted again and again that once Lord Ju was granted, Cui Xuhong would play immediately. This matter can't be postponed.
Although it will cause the reaction of the ministers, it needs to be played early and late. It's better to take advantage of this opportunity to raise Xie Jiming while they are still in the fog and still in the fog that Lord Ju has just ascended.
If they don't mention it in the morning, when things slow down, the ministers go down to the court and accept the fact that Lord Ju has become the prime minister, then they will react. Lord Ju has left, and the position of the Minister of Rites has been vacant. After they have discussed and recommended the candidate to the emperor.
At that time, if there is a better candidate, even if the emperor wants to promote Xie Jiming, it's not good that he can be promoted two levels without significant achievements.
Now is their best time and easiest chance to succeed.
Because all the officials had not responded, the position of the Minister of rites was empty, and they had no time to discuss which one to recommend.
At the end of early summer, he naturally followed Xiao mubai's meaning. After he expressed his concerns and told Xiao mubai, Xiao mubai still looked at him and said firmly, "this matter can't be delayed."
At the beginning of the summer, he looked at him, then said "good" and didn't ask in detail. Xiao mubai knew more about things above the court than him. Since he insisted on nature, he had his reason.
At the beginning of summer, when I finished my idea, I didn't bother to worry about it, and it was over to do things directly.
The emperor, with the word "retreat from the Dynasty" in his mouth, looked at Cui Xuhong out of the line, raised his eyebrows with great interest, put his hands behind him, and asked, "what's the matter with Lord Cui?"
Cui Xuhong, who attracted the attention of the public, smiled. Although he was also carrying it at the bottom of his heart, he was relaxed: "it's not a rare thing, that is, Lord Ju has now become prime minister Ju. Isn't there no one in the position of the Minister of rites?"
The Emperor didn't expect that it was this thing that he began to play.
The ministers didn't know that the position of the Minister of rites would be vacant today, but the emperor knew it well. However, he didn't preset the best candidate in his heart, so he thought about it. After Lord Ju left office, it would be discussed by all officials.
I didn't think about it. Cui Xuhong's brain is turning fast today.
However, although the position of the Minister of rites is not as noble as the prime minister, it is also one of the few important positions. According to the articles of association, it should also be discussed in private, recommended at the meeting, and finally discussed the matter in the court.
After hearing Cui Xuhong's words, the ministers reacted. Lord Ju is now prime minister Ju. The position of the book of rites is not empty.
They looked at each other. At this time, it's hard to say who to recommend. Cui Xuhong will come up with a suitable candidate?
The emperor's thoughts at this time coincided with those of the ministers: "Ai Qing put forward it at this time, but he has figured out a suitable candidate for me?"
Cui Xuhong nodded: "the old minister really thought of a suitable candidate, so he would be listed."
The ministers looked at each other one after another. Cui Xuhong's work department was self-contained and did not belong to any school. Who would he recommend?
What makes them more frightened is that looking at Cui Xuhong's calm appearance, didn't he know early in the morning that Lord Ju would be promoted to the prime minister, and the vacant position of minister of Rites has long been in the emperor's mind. At present, the two kings and ministers are hypocritically performing for the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty?
The emperor naturally didn't know that at this time, the ministers in his heart had already thought of him as a premeditated monarch and minister who had been going through the process with Cui Xuhong for a long time.
At the moment, he smiled with interest and asked, "tell me."
The emperor's cheerful expression, the slightly joking tone and the genial gesture further confirmed the thoughts in the hearts of the ministers. The two people definitely passed the Qi early in the morning.
Cui Xuhong glanced at the courtiers, and the courtiers' eyes had been focused on him. They all looked forward to listening. They didn't know who the candidate set in the emperor's heart would spend.
Only Xie Jiming has just looked at Cui Xuhong and is now frowning. I don't know what Cui Xuhong means by looking at himself.
Cui Xuhong took back his eyes, pushed his hands to his body and saluted: "the old minister thinks that the Minister of the Ministry of works, Lord Xie, can be competent for the post of minister of rites."
