Yu Gongji would never have thought that this time the court would elect such a secretary.
On the way back to the kingdom of Yu, Gongji has been thinking about this matter, it is said that his son can become the secretary of the royal family, it should be a happy thing, but as a father, Gongji just can't be happy.
You must know that Yu Gongji has struggled all his life to become the secretary of the royal family, and his son Yu Shi's father has not even been the most advanced official in the royal family, but as soon as he becomes an official, he is the first secretary of the royal family, what is going on was sullen all the way, "Hey, this rebel can actually become the secretary of the royal family, it seems that the world of the royal family is really going to change this week." ” Sitting in the car, Yu Gongji kept thinking about this question.
What's more, after Ji Gongyan, who is the Son of Heaven, came to power, all the original rules of the royal family have also changed, and the princes of Jinai like him have gone to the royal family every once in a while to help the Son of Heaven deal with some political affairs in the world, and they also have to report on the affairs of their country like the Son of Heaven and ask the Son of Heaven to decide.
But since the new emperor ascended the throne, the original rules are no longer needed.
What's more, people don't seem to like to listen to other countries.
Now Yu Gongji himself feels that every time he goes to Hojing, it is a superfluous thing, so he is too lazy to go again.
Just like today's court meeting, once it is over, he will return to his feudal country early.
Yucheng.
Although Gong Yu, who returned to the capital, was very tired, he didn't have the slightest intention of resting, "Someone is coming, please come to the palace quickly." ” "No," replied the chamberlain, and immediately went down to ask the prime minister.
After a while, the prime minister of the state of Yu came over, and after meeting, the prime minister asked, "Your Majesty, how is the situation of this court meeting?"
"Hey, what else can the situation be, isn't it just about the royal family's affairs," Duke Yu said reluctantly.
If it was in the past, Duke Yu would definitely be happy to tell the prime minister about the affairs of the court meeting, but today Duke Yu was obviously a little reluctant to talk about it.
"The matter of the secretary, since the death of Zhong Shanfu, the secretary of the royal family has been empty for a long time, and I don't know which minister the Son of Heaven canonized as the secretary of the royal family this time."
After hearing this, Yu Gongji smiled sadly and said, "Guess who will be the secretary?"
The prime minister said with a smile: "Your Majesty, although there are many ministers of the royal family at the moment, there are only a few people who can be secretaries, such as Uncle Cheng's father, Uncle Zong, and Situ, I think the king will definitely choose one person from these three people to be the secretary, but I don't know who it is, and I ask the king to make it clear." ” After hearing this, Yu Gongji shook his head and said, "You think too simply, or you think the same as all the ministers."
Not only you, but all the ministers think so, and they always feel that one of these three people should be chosen as a secretary.
But the idea of the Son of Heaven is different from everyone's thinking.
You can't even think of the secretary who is chosen by others. ” "Oh, the king said that the secretary elected this time is not among these three, so who will it be?"
Yu Gongji looked at the prime minister and said with a look: "It is the prince of our kingdom, my unscrupulous son, father Yu Shi" yes I haven't seen him for a few years, and Father Yu Shi actually became a secretary of the royal family The Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Yu's eyes widened when he heard this, "There is such a thing, but since Father Yu Shi left our Kingdom of Yu, he has never heard of him holding any position in the royal family, how can such a person who has not even been a basic official sit in the position of the secretary of the royal family all of a sudden?"
In the end, the prime minister of the state of Yu and the prince of the country are their own people, and they are also very familiar with each other's situation, so they also express their thoughts directly in front of the monarch.
"Don't say it's you, it's all the ministers in the court who think like this.
Moreover, the widow also made my own thoughts clear to the king at the court meeting, and begged the king not to canonize Yu Shi's father as a secretary, but the king just didn't listen, and insisted on canonizing Yu Shi's father as the secretary of the royal family, what can I do?"
said to the prime minister helplessly.
"It's complicated.
Your Majesty, it is said that it is a blessing for our prince to be the secretary of the royal family, but from the current relationship between Prince Shifu and us, it may not be a good thing for us to be a secretary," said the prince of the kingdom of Qiu.
"You're right, and so is the widow.
You must know that this son of mine is narrow-minded and easy to hold grudges, such a person becoming a secretary of the royal family is not only not necessarily a good thing for our country, but also not necessarily a good thing for the whole world" Then Gong Ji said to the prime minister: "In fact, what the widow is most worried about is not ourselves, but the Qin people who are far away in Qianyi. ” Father Yu Shi's becoming a secretary would be detrimental to the Qin people This matter is obvious, after all, the princes and nobles who have been growing up in the deep palace like Yu Shifu can't see the Western Fall Qin people like Ying Kang clearly in their bones, if they don't need to be in power, they just say some bad things behind their backs.
But once the people of Yu Shifu are in charge, it will be fatal for the Qin people.
Now that Father Yu Shi is in power, can the Qin people have a better life?
"What the king said is very true, but the minister's worries are far more than that."
The prime minister said.
"Oh, you have more far-reaching ideas, speak them out and listen to them."
Yu Gongji said to the prime minister.
"The minister is thinking, Father Yu Shi has become the secretary of the royal family, so will Uncle Cheng Xiu's father and these people be willing to fail, if Uncle Cheng is not willing to fail, will other more unimaginable things happen?
Although he didn't say it explicitly, Yu Gongji could hear that the prime minister was worried about major events such as a mutiny between Cheng Boxiu's father and others.
"That's not going to happen, after all, Uncle Cheng's father is a person who has been loyal to the royal family all his life, and he won't do anything stupid, and Uncle Cheng's father resigned from the official position of Da Sima in court.
The king did not care about his rudeness, and also canonized him to use Sima's surname.
I think that in the future, Uncle Cheng Xiu's father should no longer pay attention to the government.
Yu Gongji said to the prime minister.
"That's the best, but once Uncle Cheng and the others no longer pay attention to the government, then his eldest son Zhong Geng will definitely manage Cheng Guo's affairs.
The monarch should know that today's son, as well as Yu Shifu, Zhong Geng, and Ji Zhao, the monarch of the scattered country, have all studied together in the royal family, and can be said to be classmates and friends.
Once all of these are in power in various countries, the future of the Qin people will be difficult.
The Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Yu said worriedly.
At this time, he, like Yu Gongji, has already regarded the Qin man Yingkang who is far away in Qianyi as his own person, not to mention that this Qin man Yingkang is also the son-in-law of the fourth prince Upon hearing this, Yu Gongji couldn't help but take a deep breath, "Hey, you're right, if it goes on like this, the situation will be even more unfavorable to the Qin people." ”:
