Chapter 1493 Minister of Rites
Gao Gong sighed in his heart, knowing that he should stop thinking about the holy order in the future. Emperor Longqing didn't know the holy order at all, and he would still throw the cabinet and fight Xu Jie at that time.You must increase your strength.Seeing today's twenty-eighth opening situation, Gao Gong felt even more urgent.So he immediately said:

"The Ministry of Rites submitted a booklet for the Prince Yi Note, please read it Your Majesty."

Immediately, Emperor Longqing lost his drowsiness and became more energetic.

"The crown prince is the foundation of the country, and it should be registered as soon as possible. This is a top priority and must be handled solemnly. It must be announced to all countries and ask them to send envoys to watch the ceremony.

In short, this matter must be done well.If you have anything to add, just say it. "

"Your Majesty!" Gao Gong immediately interjected: "We can do our best in all aspects, but the official who presides over the ceremony should be the Minister of Rites, but the former Minister of Rites, Mr. Yan Na, has joined the cabinet. Now there is a vacancy for the Minister of Rites, so the only way to do it is by the Ministry of Rites." It's a little inappropriate for the servant to do it."

Emperor Longqing was taken aback for a moment, and at this moment he finally remembered that he had promised to promote Luo Xin to be Minister of Rites.But I forgot.

This seems to be a bit sorry for Master Luo!
Hastily gave Luo Xin an apologetic look, and then said loudly: "Master Luo is the servant of the Ministry of Rites, just be promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Rites."

Luo Xin couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this unreliable emperor finally remembered to give himself a promotion...

Although he felt that Emperor Longqing was unreliable, and he also looked forward to the Minister of Rites in his heart, but according to the rules of the officialdom, Luo Xin could not thank him immediately and expressed his willingness to be the Minister of Rites.

Be humble!Be reserved!
Therefore, Luo Xin stepped forward and said, "I am afraid, I am afraid that I will not be able to do the job, and I will never dare to obey the holy order."

Emperor Longqing naturally knew about this procedure, so he wanted to persuade him.A smile appeared on Gao Gong's face and said:

"Your Majesty, this Minister of Rites is one of the Nine Ministers, and it should be pushed by the court as usual."

Only then did Emperor Longqing, who was sorry for Luo Xin, react, and hurriedly said: "It was my negligence, so let's push it in court now."

"Your Majesty!" Xu Jie said at this time: "Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites is one of the Nine Ministers, and the matter is important. The court hearing is a heavy ceremony of the court, and it should be carried out according to the rules. Please confirm the date, and then gather all the officials above the third rank, and your Majesty And avoid it."

Emperor Longqing was not very clear about these rules, so he looked at Gao Gong and Gao Gong nodded.Emperor Longqing said:

"Master Gao, what day do you think is good?"

Gao Gong didn't give Xu Jie a chance to speak, and immediately replied: "The minister of the Ministry of Rites can't hang up in vain, and he needs to preside over the ceremony of establishing the crown prince. It should be sooner rather than later. It should be after the court today."

Xu Jie's lips moved, but in the end he didn't speak at first, knowing in his heart that this matter could not be stopped.From the moment Yan Na was promoted to the cabinet and let Luo Xin preside over the new emperor's enthronement, Xu Jie knew that Emperor Longqing was giving Luo Xin a place.If he dared to stop it, he would have offended Emperor Longqing.

Now he does not have the strength to overtake Emperor Longqing, but Emperor Longqing has the strength to depose him.So, since you can't stop it, don't show your malice.

Luo Xin's expression was indifferent, he knew that the matter had come to fruition.

Don't look at when Gao Gong and Xu Jie were fighting, there were only [-]% supporters, as if Xu Jie had [-]% supporters.

Not at all.

That's because Gao Gong challenged all the officials by proposing to popularize one tax per ten, that is, Gao Party members had to give up economic interests to support him for political interests.Those centrists, the soy sauce party, all supported Xu Jie in this matter, and temporarily allied with Xu Jie.However, this does not mean that they have joined the Xu Party.

They are still waiting and watching, and there are definitely many officials waiting and watching.

Xu Jie had betrayed Emperor Longqing, which made the centrists and the soy sauce party very cautious about joining the Xu party.And Gao Gong's background and character also made the centrists and the soy sauce party very cautious about Gao Gong.This caused Xu Jie or Gao Gong to be far from controlling the court.

Xu Jie was able to occupy some advantages, probably occupying [-]% of the power of these officials in the Qianqing Palace, Gao Gong only [-]%, and the remaining [-]% were centrists and soy sauce party.

And since Luo Xin came to be an official, he has fought everywhere, in exchange for a peaceful life for Daming.Establish a mutual market and a shipping department to exchange for a rich life for everyone.It can be said that all the officials in court must recognize Luo Xin's favor.Moreover, when Luo Xin was in the capital, he was very low-key and friendly. Although the centrists and the soy sauce party thought that Luo Xin was still weak and would not defect to him, they undoubtedly had a good impression of Luo Xin.

In particular, Emperor Jiajing put dozens of officials into prison, and Luo Xin tried every means to rescue those officials, and was thrown into prison by Emperor Jiajing for this incident, which made these officials have a better impression of Luo Xin.Therefore, the [-]% centrists and the soy sauce party will definitely vote in favor.

The promotion of Luo Xin to be Minister of Rites was proposed by Gao Gong, and the [-]% of Gao Dang will definitely support Luo Xin, so Xu Jie's [-]% is no longer important.

This is why Luo Xin is calm.

"Zunzuo!" Emperor Longqing stood up straight away and said: "Let's get here early today, the most important thing now is to push the court, everything will be discussed at the morning tomorrow."

After saying that, Emperor Longqing left, leaving behind a group of officials who looked at each other in blank dismay.

Luo Xin watched his nose with his eyes, his mouth with his nose, and his heart with his mouth. He stood there.Gao Gong just wanted to speak, but Xu Jie spoke first:

"Now let's start the trial."

Gao Gong was very dissatisfied with Xu Jie's stealing the words, but this was a court push to Luo Xin, and he didn't want to have any side effects, so he simply kept silent.On the contrary, the corners of Luo Xin's mouth curled up, showing a hint of sarcasm.

Xu Jie stood up first, and with that tone, Luo Xin could tell right away that he wanted to tell Xu Party officials to vote for Luo Xin.Since you can't stop it, you can release your goodwill to Luo Xin. On the one hand, you can win Luo Xin's goodwill, and even if you can't win it, you can also paralyze Luo Xin.On the other hand, the relationship between Luo Xin and Gao Gong can be separated.If everyone in the Xu party voted for it, Gao Gong, who is not broad-minded enough, would suspect that Luo Xin and Xu Jie had a private deal?
This is the effect Xu Jie expects, turning an unfavorable situation into a favorable situation.

Wily and scheming, cunning and cunning.

The result of the vote was as expected by Luo Xin, but it was beyond the expectations of the officials.

Luo Xin expected that he had a high possibility of unanimous approval, but in fact it was unanimous approval.

There was no objection and no abstentions.

This kind of situation has never happened before, because a person who has been promoted to a certain level will definitely have political opponents, and it is impossible to pass unanimously.
