On the morning of the 20th winter month of the fourth year of Jiajing, the sky was only bright, the plum blossoms in the courtyard were blooming, several birds and finches that got up early to forage for food probed their brains under the eaves, and the cold morning breeze sent the fragrance of plum and birdsong into the tent.

"Xianggong, it's time to get up~ go to court." Xie Xiaowan gently woke up the man sleeping beside her.

"Good lady, let Xianggong sleep for a while, it's not dawn yet, sleep for a while, just a while!" Xu Jin hugged Xiaowan's slender waist, and buried his face deep in his arms, like a child who was lying in bed and didn't want to go to school.

Xie Xiaowan was distressed and funny, but she had deliberately delayed waking up Xu Jin, so she had to stiffen her heart: "Xianggong, don't sleep, if you sleep again, you should miss the time of the early dynasty, it will be bad if the emperor blames it." ”

"The evil old society, I don't know which bastard invented the early dynasty, I have to get up before dawn to prepare, is this tossing people, and there is no humanity!"

Master Xu was sneering in his heart, and reluctantly left the warm bed, and then freshened up under the service of his wife and maid, and changed into a brand new court dress.

Yesterday, the emperor's decree has been issued to the Xu Mansion, Xu Jin was promoted to the secretary of the military department because of his merits, and he was also a scholar of the Zhan Shifu, and he was crowned the prince and young master, and the age of the title was also increased to 5,000 stones. As soon as this decree was read, the whole house was overjoyed, and it was even more lively than the New Year. The lord is also honored to be a subordinate, not to mention the temperament of the lady who treats the subordinate well, and this year's year-end bonus is definitely more generous.

Along with the holy decree, there were also two sets of brand-new official uniforms, one was the crown prince and young master dress from the first grade, and the other was the military department Shangshu court dress from the second grade. The prince and young master are just fictitious, so this set of prince's young master's dress will only be worn on special occasions, and the Shangshu court dress of the second grade must be worn in the court.

As the saying goes, people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, Xu Jin is already handsome and extraordinary, and after changing into this set of crimson second-grade official robes, he is even more vigorous, even more vigorous than the brocade chicken embroidered on the official uniform. Yue'er and early spring and early summer are all scorching, their hearts are pounding, and their watery eyes are like rippling spring water, no, it should be Liuhong, Liuhong's flooded spring water!

Master Xu couldn't help but feel weak for a while, and then he realized the pain of having endless fields at home.

After eating breakfast, Xu Jin originally wanted to go to the other courtyard to see Ruyi and auspicious, but it was too late, so he had to hurry to the imperial city to participate in the early dynasty.

When Xu Jin arrived at the left gate of Chang'an, the front of the door was already crowded, crowded with officials who came to the court, and their eyes were full of "well-dressed beasts". Some officials who lived far away and had not had time to eat breakfast were gobbling up while waiting for the door to open, which reminded Xu Jin of the office workers who rushed to catch the subway in the morning, and there was an inexplicable sense of intimacy.

"Good morning, Lord Xu!"

"Good morning, Lord Shangshu!"

"Good morning, Marquis Jinghai!"

When those officials saw Xu Jinxing, who was dressed in a crimson official robe, they all saluted in awe to make way. Today's Xu Jin can be described as a popular fried chicken in the court, with outstanding merits, deeply favored by the emperor, and served as the secretary of the military department at the age of less than twenty-five, the young master of the prince, and the scholar of Zhan Shifu...... Every title can brighten someone's eyes.

Xu Jin was not fluttering about this, he was originally old and serious in two lives, since he was almost beheaded last time, he is now more stable, because stability can stand firmly, once a person floats, it is easy to fight with him.

Xu Jin walked all the way, always smiling, and nodded his head to the officials who came forward to greet him, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

"Good morning, Lord Xu!"

"Good morning Ziqian!"

"Good morning, Lord Xu!"

At this time, three handsome officials greeted Xu Jin and saluted, it was Xia Yan, Fei Maozhong and Xu Jie.

Xu Jin smiled and nodded: "Good morning Lord Xia, good morning to the people, good morning to Zisheng!" ”

Xu Jielian didn't dare, Xu Jin called the table directly, which made him a little flattered.

"Congratulations to Ziqian for being ranked in Jiuqing, opening a precedent for my dynasty." Fei Maozhong congratulated him from the bottom of his heart, he is now a member of the Ministry of Rites, and he is just qualified to participate in the early dynasty.

Fei Maozhong, as the leader of the palace examination, was promoted from the seventh-grade Hanlin to the fifth-grade Langzhong in five years, which can only be regarded as decent, and no one dares to say that he relies on Lao Tzu.

On the contrary, if Fei Mao didn't have a Lao Tzu who was a cabinet elder, with his ability, the official position would have gone up a long time ago, but Fei Ge Lao was worried that others would say that he was nepotistic, so he pressed his son to the position of Hanlin editor for three years. If it weren't for the purge of the upstart faction some time ago, a large number of official positions were vacated, and the emperor personally appointed him, it is estimated that Fei Maozhong would not even be able to do it properly now.

So it's a good thing to have a man who is in a high position and cherishes his reputation too much!

Xu Jin is a little sympathetic to Fei Maozhong, but it's good to be down-to-earth, at least the foundation is solid, not like soaring like a rocket, and now he has become the secretary of the military department, and there are few civilian henchmen under his hands, but the military attache is full of peach and plum, and it is all because of a few wars.

Of course, Xu Jin doesn't want to form a gang, now this state is the best, with his current power, if he goes to form a gang again, it will only attract suspicion, so just hug Zhu Houxi's kid's big ~ legs, anyway, this kid will be the emperor for at least forty years, and then he should retire and enjoy his old age.

"The people have been praised falsely, and Xu Jin deserves the position of secretary of the Ministry of War." Xu Jindao.

Xia Yan looked whole and said: "Lord Xu's words are wrong, but the official thinks that Lord Xu deserves his name." ”

"What Lord Xia said is extremely true, Lord Xu has a brilliant record, is familiar with military affairs, and throughout the court and beyond, no one is more suitable than Lord Xu to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of War, Lord Xu is in charge of the Ministry of War, which is really the blessing of my dynasty."

Xu Jie's voice is peaceful, and his eyes are calm when he speaks, although he is saying echoing words, it makes people not feel that he is flattering, but from the heart of his lungs, which makes people feel good. It can be seen that this guy is indeed a skilled person.

Just as the four of them were polite to each other, suddenly a tall, thin middle-aged official approached and bowed his hand and said, "Good morning Lord Xu, good morning Lord Xia." ”

Xu Jin took a look at it and found that this person turned out to be Yan Song, so he quietly bowed his hand and said, "Good morning, Lord Yan." ”

Yan Song hurriedly saluted again in fear: "The lower official didn't dare, the lower official was deceived by Zhang Xuan and Guo Xunzhi before, and did something unfavorable to Lord Xu, and always wanted to come to the door to accompany Lord Xu, but there was no chance. ”

Before Xu Jin was almost put to death by Lu Bing and Zhang Xuan, Yan Song also fell into the ground, and his son Yan Shifan also instigated scholars to march outside the noon gate to put pressure on Emperor Jiajing.

Xu Jin said lightly: "If Lord Yan doesn't mention it, the official has forgotten about this stubble!" With that, he went straight away.

Xu Jin was originally not interested in Yan Song, a famous traitor in history, not to mention that this guy had fallen into a hole for himself, so he naturally didn't bother to give him a good face at this time.

Yan Song ate a cold nail, his face couldn't help but turn red and white, and the officials around him subconsciously stayed away from him, offending Xu Jin, a popular man in the dynasty, who dared to approach him?

However, everyone is very curious, Yan Song has obviously been demoted to the secretary of the Guozijian Division, how can he be qualified to participate in the early dynasty as a mere six-grade official? This thing can't have come here to "meet" Lord Xu on purpose, and then apologize with a fake accompaniment, right?

Hehe, I knew this was the case, so why bother in the first place!

The officials present all understood that as long as Xu Jin was in the dynasty for a day, Yan Song might not have a day to come out again, this is the end of standing on the wrong team, but Xu Jin is still so young, Yan Song can't survive if he wants to, it's a tragedy!
