Chapter 394 (2/2)

The emperor took back his eyes and glanced at the ministers with satisfaction: ”but there are other Aiqing who will go out on his own and compete with Xie Jiming for the post of minister of rites?”

Xiao Yanjun looked at the courtiers who supported him, but none of them dared to look up.

It's really no wonder that they. Once the emperor said this, who dares to sit in this position now?

Senior officials can seek it slowly, but there is only one life

The emperor looked arrogant and looked at the silent crowd and ordered: ”since no one is listed, Xie Jiming will take the post of minister of rites. Lord Cui recommended meritorious service and rewarded a year's salary.”

Xie Jiming and Cui Xuhong knelt down together and said, ”the minister ordered to thank you.”

Although they said the same sentence, their mood was different.

Xie Jiming is looking forward to his future, but Cui Xuhong is disappointed about his future.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were unwilling and the imperial decree had been issued. They had to bow down and praise the emperor's wisdom and congratulate Xie Jiming on his promotion.

The emperor announced his withdrawal from the court under the crawling of all officials. Duke Li's sharp voice sounded, and the hearts of the ministers were also relieved.

This was probably the longest morning in their history. They had long been tired physically and mentally. Now they finally heard the sound of retreating. If they didn't care about their face, they might really want to sit directly on the ground of the Taihe hall and have a good breath.

Seeing that the emperor had left, Xiao Yanjun naturally couldn't stay for a moment. He got up and walked outside the hall. Shi Fuqiu immediately followed him up. Xiao Yanjun glanced at Shi Fuqiu, who was also ugly, tried his best to suppress his displeasure and comforted him: ”uncle, don't blame yourself. I know you tried your best.”

Shi Fuqiu looked embarrassed. Although he was worried about Shi Jiaying, it was hard to speak at this time.

However, Xiao Yanjun was clear-minded. At a glance, he saw it and took the initiative to mention: ”since I promised my cousin, my uncle will naturally do it. It's just that I shouldn't be in a hurry right now. After all, the Du family is still in prison.”

Shi Fuqiu breathed a sigh of relief. He was deeply afraid of Xiao Yanjun's repentance. Now he was comforted by Nuo and quickly opened his mouth: ”don't worry, don't worry, this matter will be slow down, just remember it in the heart of his highness King Yu. At this time, our efforts should be put above the government. Should we go to Yufu palace to discuss it together?”

Xiao Yanjun put on a smile: ”no, uncle, go back to the house first. It's inevitable that the population of Yufu palace will fall when you go down. I have a plan for today. If necessary, I'll send a message to you.”

When Shi Fuqiu saw that he said so, he just smiled and said goodbye. Xiao Yanjun looked at his back and smiled for a moment. A peerless face was suddenly angry.

All the officials in the hall of Supreme Harmony saw Xiao Yanjun leave, and those in twos and threes also went out of the hall together.

Xie Jiming, who got up, stretched out his hand to Cui Xuhong: ”thank you for your recommendation.”

Cui Xuhong raised his eyes to look at him, sighed, stretched out his hand to take it up, helped him up and said congratulations: ”congratulations on Xie Shangshu.”

Xie Jiming was as expressionless as ever. He just locked his eyebrows and looked at Cui Xuhong: ”I have a question in my heart. I hope Lord Cui can solve it.”

Cui Xuhong's complexion was complicated when he listened to the word ”my official”. Now Xie Jiming is really on an equal footing with him. Facing him, I will never call him ”Xiaguan” again.

Ironically, Cui Xuhong was extremely sad. It happened that the man in front of him wanted to ask himself why, and how he said it. He waved his hand and motioned him not to ask again.

”In the future, I just hope that Lord Xie can still remember my recommendation today.” Cui Xuhong said this and turned to walk outside the hall without giving Xie Jiming the opportunity to ask
