Chapter 207: The arrangement of the officials; the secret of the pit father

That night, it was not until it was dark and Tang Song returned home from the Song and Wu Shengping Building. He did not dare to walk through the main entrance, but sneaked in through the side door and specifically reminded the servants responsible for guarding the portal here not to tell the old man about his return.

Hearing this, the servant bowed and smiled and said, "Mr. Marquis, but I'm relieved. There are too many guests here today. The master is a little tired, and because he is really happy, I drank a few more bottles at night, so I've been served by the lady to go to bed early."

Under the bright moonlight, the servants on duty faced Tang Song with a faint glow. There were too many unexpected things on this day. The little master was named the marquis, and the people who came to congratulate him were the top powerful people in Luoyang City. Shangguan Kaizhao sent someone, and there were also people in the Taiping Princess Mansion in Zhenguo. Even the chief assistant of the Political Affairs Hall, Di Renjie, also condemned people and sent congratulations.

Not to mention how heavy the gifts the Princess Taiping and Shangguan Kaizhao sent to the country, just to receive congratulations and gift lists from Di Gong and theirs, how much face would it be for God? There are hundreds of thousands of families who can have such a big face?

I never thought that I really thought that this young master was really hidden and made a big splash!

In fact, it is not a snobbish person. For servants like him who defected to the Tang Mansion together with his personal belongings, his personal fate is completely closely linked to the prosperity and decline of the master's family. The essence of concern for Tang Song's status changes is still his own destiny.

Tang Song naturally didn't know what the servant was thinking at this moment. Hearing that Tang Daren had already fallen asleep, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, his steps were firm, and his waist was straightened. In an instant, the sneaky look he had just entered the door was wiped out.

Moonlight, wearing a bright body, returned to the room. Not long after sitting down, he saw Tang Yuan walking in with an Ouan tea.

The environment is really strong in transforming people. Although Tang Yuan has only been in Beijing for a few months, the sorrow that was always depressed between his eyebrows when he was in Xiangzhou has completely dissipated. The experience of the director made her look less natural weakness and more capable. Her appearance was not bad at all. At this time, she put on the newest clothes and the best rouge powder, and she was a beautiful and charming lady.

Seeing Tang Yuan’s changes, although Tang Song didn’t say anything, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. Although there were many difficulties and twists and turns, life itself was always generally fair, and one effort would be rewarded. The better and better life of his family around him was the best reward for him.

After all, people do not live just for themselves. A sense of happiness actually comes from many aspects. This not strong but light but long-lasting sense of happiness is one of the motivations for Tang Song to continue moving forward and face more difficulties and obstacles.

The sense of accomplishment in life and the happiness of family members are actually enough to make a man full of fighting spirit.

Tang Yuan put down the tea cup, poured a cup for Tang Song, and sat down opposite him, "Grandpa is so happy today."

After sighing and saying this, Tang Yuan smiled and shook his head with great satisfaction. "Actually, let alone grandpa, even I am just like dreaming. The changes in our family have been so great and too fast in the past few years."

If you know how to be content, you will know how to cherish blessings. This is another benefit of Tang Yuan. Listening to her arias, Tang Song didn't answer, just sipped in the tea and smiled slightly.

His happiness and sighs did not attract Tang Song's response. This made Tang Yuan feel a little regretful that he could not enjoy his whole life, and he glanced at him with anger. "There is no one else who wants such a good thing. Why are you going to escape? Let others suffer for you?"

"You have passed all three media and six certificates. Now you are only one step away from getting married. Why are you talking about 'others'! It's natural for your brother-in-law to help your brother-in-law. What? Is it so easy to marry a beautiful sister?"

Listening to Tang Song's words, although Tang Yuan was not as shy as the little girl, he also turned his face slightly and then spat lightly.

Seeing her like this, Tang Song laughed out loud, and after laughing, he asked seriously: "I've been really busy these days, but I forgot to ask, Sister, when will you get married with Brother Chen? I'm going to make a decision earlier, so I'll be prepared. Don't worry, I will not hide this time, and I will definitely marry you out in a grand manner."

"What kind of charming thing is not glorious? I don't want this. We have already discussed it and will do it after you get married."

Tang Song was stunned now.

Tang Yuan looked at him and said seriously: "It's impossible to have a woman in a family. Besides, our family is growing and prosperous, so there will be more and more servants. You have to be busy outside every day, and the grandfather is obsessed with books. Who has the intention to manage family affairs? If I leave now, you two may live a life. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your grandfather. How can he take good care of yourself? Not to mention having a servant, it's different after all."

Tang Song was speechless, and Tang Yuan didn't say anything more when he saw this. Instead, he talked about another thing about Chen Xuanli.

Chen Xuanli made great contributions when he discovered that Wu Sansi had poisoned Wu Chengsi's treacherous plot. Because of this, he also took a share of the reward this time, and he also promoted a lot of titles. Now his Wusan official is a guerrilla general of the fifth rank. Although the travel record is the lowest among the generals, he has surpassed the general's hurdle.

In fact, the official position he was promoted to the sixth-rank chief commander. For the army at that time, the army was a crucial obstacle between the captain and the chief commander. With Chen Xuanli's age, being able to overcome this obstacle smoothly now means that he is a real rising star in the Tang army and has a bright future.

Chen Xuanli is worried about his whereabouts now. The so-called emperor and minister, the Ten Thousand Cavalry Imperial Guard where he is was originally formed by the former Holy Emperor Wu Zetian, but in the previous palace transformation, he was in awkward situation due to Yuan Wenbo.

In this way, it is really difficult to be in the Ten Thousand Cavalry Imperial Guards. Chen Xuanli is both young and not a person who is willing to live a life of peace, so he naturally has some ideas.

Should I continue to stay in the imperial guards and wait for a look, or just jump out and fight for a vast sky?

With his current rank, if he goes to the local military system, then he will be qualified to be a general in the state and one prefecture; he can still be a commander in the border military system. But Chen Xuanli is a little confused about how to choose.

Ruoyi naturally hopes to join the border army, but in this case, what should I do if the two children and Tang Yuan have?

After hearing this, Tang Song asked first. "Sister, what do you think?"

Tang Yuan had nothing to hide in front of his younger brother, "I don't want him to win his wife and son. The family is safe and happy than anything else. There is nothing wrong with the army in the town, but as the border army, my sister naturally doesn't want him to go."

After thinking quietly for a while, Tang Song solemnly said, "Tell me to my brother-in-law and tell him not to worry. Let's wait until the capital is moved next year, and it will not be too late to make a decision after the imperial court arranged the Chang'an imperial guards. If I have my opinion, I think it would be better for my brother-in-law to stay in the imperial guards in the past three to five years. Even if the imperial court wants to split the 10,000 cavalry army, then the capital will still be in Chang'an and will still form a new imperial guard."

After hearing this, Tang Yuan couldn't help but smile. Now that his father and younger brother are in the capital, he naturally hopes that Chen Xuanli will also work in the capital, so that both his husband and his parents can take care of it. How beautiful!

Seeing Tang Yuan like this, Tang Song laughed, "Tell me, "If he goes down now, what can he do to the town army? He has no place to suppress any bandits. Although he is a commander in the border army, he has no right to be independent and can only be driven by others. What's the point of going on like this? Instead of doing this, it's better to stay in the imperial guards for a few more years to increase the ranks. If there is something wrong with the border, he will be able to lead the army alone, which is also considered as a place to display his talents."

After pausing for a while, Tang Song added in a low voice, "Besides, if he was in the imperial guards in the past few years, it may also be helpful to me."

After hearing this, Tang Yuan showed a rare heroic spirit, "It's time for his family to help each other, we're in the Imperial Army."

After Tang Yuan left, Tang Song went to bed early after washing up. The next morning, when he arrived at the gate of the Shangshu Province, he was stopped by a small official in a green-clad government affairs hall, saying that Di Xiang wanted to meet the county marquis.

The office room of Di Renjie in the Political Affairs Hall is as big as Lu Yuanfang's. Although the furnishings inside are far from luxurious, they are much better than Lu Xiang's Jian Su.

Di Renjie, who was busy every day, was too busy now and had no time to reminisce about Tang Song. When he saw him, he just reached out and clicked Hu bench to signal him to sit down.

After sitting down, I immediately talked about the matter, and the question was about the arrangements of Tang Song’s official officials.

"Now that you have been granted the title of marquis, the Shangshu who were originally from the seventh rank is really inappropriate. However, you are young and have too little experience. The arrangement of this new official is really difficult to think about. I just came to you just to ask, what do you think about this matter?"

After hearing this, Tang Song said without hesitation: "Since my husband summoned me here, I have made a decision in his heart. I have no idea, but just follow it."

"Oh? That servant intended to let you serve as secretary and deputy chief. What do you want?"

If you only discuss the rank of the grade, the secretary and the junior supervisor are the fourth rank, which is really not low.

But when it comes to value, this is really a bit fatal. The responsibility of the secretary supervisor is to dictionary books. To put it bluntly, it is a national library. The secretary supervisor is the second-in-command deputy director of the library. The only second-level unit that can be managed by the secretary supervisor is still a writing bureau with no actual power.

The Secretary-General is a real clean and cold yamen among the temples and prisons of the imperial city. Unless they are old officials who are waiting to beg for bones and return home and want to make a breakthrough in saving the country, there are really few people willing to come to this place, let alone those who are currently popular.

Zheng Zhili, who was born in the former four families, was so cold that he would rather go to the Ministry of Works to be a minister than to be the chief official here because he had been in the position of secretary for too long.

If Tang Song really got here this time, it would have set a precedent for decades in the imperial city.

After hearing this arrangement, Tang Song stood up and bowed, "Abide by your husband's arrangement."

Tang Song's performance was obviously beyond Di Renjie's expectations. He looked at him with a bright look for a long time, "In the past few days, some people have recommended you to be a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel, and some people have recommended you to be a doctor in the Ministry of Rites. Have you thought about it?"

After hearing this, Tang Song realized that Taiping and Wei Bo had actually acted.

Tang Song knew very well why Taiping recommended him to be the head of the Ministry of Personnel. He just thought that on the one hand, it was convenient for him to expand his power, and on the other hand, he also wanted to use him to intercept the expansion of Wei's power.

If Tang Song really wants to sit in this position, it means he will directly rush to the forefront of the struggle between Taiping and Wei. He either goes left or right, and there is no room for maneuver.

As for the Ministry of Rites recommended by Wei Bo, the first major event for Wei, the promotion of Concubine Wei to the Queen is now, and the person who directly handles this matter was the Ministry of Rites. If Tang Song took over this position, he would immediately rush to the front line of supporting Concubine Wei's title or opposing his title. He would still either go left or right, and would not give him any room to circumvent his title.

Although these two seats have extremely strong authority, the temperature on the seat is not only a hot body, but it is simply a burning person to death.

Listening to Di Renjie's confirmed question, Tang Song didn't say anything, but just bowed again.

"Okay!" There was a hint of ease in Di Renjie's praise, and there was a lot of relief. "Since our ministers eat the king's fortune, we should be loyal to the king. It is enough to have a king in our hearts! If you have too many other thoughts, it is neither the heart of a pure minister nor the blessing of a minister."

Hearing this, Tang Song smiled slightly and still said nothing.

Di Renjie's mood was obviously much better. He raised his hand and pressed down and signaled Tang Song to sit down. After he smiled on his tired face and said warmly: "You have now been named a marquis and are about to be appointed as the fourth-rank secretary and the junior supervisor. It is inappropriate to be alone. I would like to ask you, is there anyone who is engaged?"

Now when talking about this issue, Liu Mei and Shangguan Wan'er will naturally appear in Tang Song's mind. However, one of them is on the snowy plateau thousands of miles away, and the return date is not clear; the other is temporarily trapped in the deep palace, and it is difficult to come out without waiting for the move to the capital to be arranged. Given her sensitivity in identity, Tang Song is unwilling to cause trouble in advance to avoid any extraneous problems.

So when it comes to getting married, Tang Song could only remain silent. When it is difficult to be silent like now, he only shook his head.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Tang Song felt that Di Renjie seemed to smile more happily after seeing him shaking his head.

However, he did not say that the servant introduced you to a boudoir like Tang Song worried. He just said lightly in a rare and warm tone, "Princess Yulu should return to the capital in the past three or five days. At that time, you will go with the servant to welcome her. It will be really hard for her over the years."

Di Renjie said it normally, but for Tang Song, this sentence was like someone hitting him hard on the head with a big hammer. This was a real bolt from the blue.

Isn’t Yulu the name of Jing Jing? She is a fool. This girl who used to suffer from autism and likes to pull his clothes every day and is dressed up by him desperately, is actually a princess?

How could she become a princess?

How could she become a princess?

Even though Tang Song's heart was tough, he was shocked by the news that seemed impossible to him. Seeing that he was inquiring, Di Renjie waved his hand first, "This matter is a long story, but I don't have time to tell you in detail. After the princess returns to the capital, you will naturally know. There are many people to see here, so you can go."

After Tang Songqiang took his mind, he did not forget what he should say most. It was okay to go to the secretary's supervisor, but it was okay to be a secretary's supervisor. However, Yao Chong and Song Jing's writing team responsible for writing new official evaluation standards were brought to the secretary's supervisor together.

Upon hearing this, Di Renjie frowned slightly and nodded and responded.

Walking out of the gate of the Political Affairs Hall, Tang Song looked up at the sky, and then looked at the inner palace not far away.

Damn, there are so many secrets in this world and this place!
