Chapter 780: Able to bend and stretch Liu Jiwen
Wang Shenling regards Chu Xian as the next candidate for the first seat, which shows how high his evaluation of Chu Xian is.
Therefore, if he can marry Chu Xian now, it will definitely be a matter of great benefit to the Wang family, and sometimes, Wang Shenling will also have to seek some benefits for future generations.
Wang Yancian smiled: "I had an agreement with Li Ziyun back then, no one can stand without faith, grandpa doesn't need to persuade again, what's more, it's good now, Chu Xian, he can support grandpa twice, it means that he hasn't forgotten some of the kindness of the year in his heart, so it's best, if you force more, it's unwise." ”
Wang Shenling pondered these words carefully, and nodded again and again: "My granddaughter has really grown up, okay, grandpa won't say it, just let it happen in the future, but it's still that sentence, things still have to be fought for, after all, the affairs of men and women must not be stubborn and willful, but also not inferior and self-pitying, self-abandonment." ”
The two grandfathers and grandsons of the Wang family have obviously improved their mood tremendously, and they have seen a lot of things, but on the other hand, the shock caused by Chu Xian's becoming Shang Shuling is far from subsided.
Liu Jiwen, the right attendant of the household, is like an ant on a hot pot at the moment, restless and restless.
In the past three years, his life has not been good, if the time is pushed forward, that is, before Chu Xian came to the household department, his life can be described as quite comfortable.
At that time, he was in charge of the largest affairs of the household department, and because there was a Shangshu to make Li Yuanming a descendant, even if it was a Shangshu of the household, he didn't have to care about it.
But the good days can only be missed now, and now Liu Jiwen has no backers, and the household department is also squeezed out by all parties, and his life is quite 'miserable'.
But even so, Liu Jiwen is still holding on, he feels that as long as he persists, there will be a day when he will turn over, and there will be a time when he Liu Jiwen will get ahead.
But what happened today completely became the last straw that crushed him.
Chu Xian's upper Shang Shu Ling.
not only became his top boss, but also became the top boss of the entire Sixth Department, that is, the position of his backer Li Yuanming at the beginning.
This time it made Liu Jiwen uneasy after returning from the Shoufu Pavilion.
It can be said that if Chu Xian wants to deal with him now, it will be effortless at all, Liu Jiwen said that he is not afraid, it is false.
Thinking of how hard I have climbed all the way, I finally climbed to today's position, how much hardship I have endured, how tired I have suffered, and I finally lived a good life, but I encountered difficulties. Now Liu Jiwen regrets it a lot, regretting that he provoked Chu Xian in the first place, and in addition, he regrets that he didn't think about repairing his relationship with Chu Xian later.
Of course, this can't be blamed on him, when Chu Xian implemented the land system, he jumped out to oppose it at the court meeting, and then of course it was impossible to help the other party, not to mention, in Liu Jiwen's eyes, Chu Xian's policy was more likely to fail, Liu Jiwen at that time was waiting, waiting for Chu Xian to fail, waiting for Chu Xian to dig his own grave.
But who would have thought that he didn't wait for Chu Xian's decree to fail, the reform of the family was carried out quite smoothly, and the effect was even more obvious, as the right servant of the household department, even if Liu Jiwen was no longer convinced, he knew in his heart that Chu Xian's change this time was of great significance and the effect was excellent.
But even so, Liu Jiwen didn't think it was anything.
No matter how strong the other party is, he is just at the same level as himself, they are all household servants, who is afraid of whom?
At that time, Liu Jiwen was thinking about finding a backer again, but to be honest, the current situation is not easy to find, every time he thinks of this, Liu Jiwen feels that Li Yuanming lost too quickly, if Li Yuanming is still there, then he will not be so embarrassed.
Later, it was rumored that Chu Xian might be elected as Shang Shuling.
Liu Jiwen's reaction was not to believe it, no matter from which point he didn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it, he knew too well how cruel it would be for him if Chu Xian was on the throne.
But that's how reality plays tricks on him.
Chu Xian is really on top.
The other party really became a Shang Shuling, and it was passed at one time, without any suspense.
Liu Jiwen remembered that at the meeting of the Shoufu Pavilion, his brain was blank and his palms were full of sweat.
What now?
Liu Jiwen felt that he had to take action, and he couldn't go against Chu Xian anymore, not only couldn't he go against him, but he also had to think of ways to repair the relationship.
But people's status is already far above themselves, how to repair it?
Liu Jiwen is not stupid enough to think that he can climb Chu Xian, in his opinion, as long as Chu Xian can not blame the past and let himself go, it will be burning high incense.
So after thinking about it, Liu Jiwen decided to visit Chu Xian, it's a big deal, admit his mistake in person, as long as Chu Xian can not be held accountable and not embarrassed him, he can do anything.
You must know that Chu Xian is still holding his handle in his hand, although it is not a big deal, but if you really want to get him, it is estimated that he does not even have the slightest strength to resist.
"When the husband is alive, he must be able to bend and stretch, admit his mistakes and submit to softness, and the most important thing is to keep his official position. Liu Jiwen thought about it, immediately prepared a congratulatory gift, and then rushed to Chu Mansion.
After all, Liu Jiwen is also a member of the Shoufu Pavilion, which is beyond the ability of ordinary officials, and he came to see Chu Xian in person, and the people of the Chu Mansion naturally wanted to inform Chu Xian as soon as possible.
When Chu Xian heard that Liu Jiwen was coming, he knew why the other party came.
After thinking about it, Chu Xian ordered: "Let Liu Shilang go to the west living room to wait for a while, and say that I will be there immediately." ”
The people below obeyed the order, and after Chu Xian finished speaking, he turned his head and smiled at the Hubu Shangshu opposite: "I have ordered someone to prepare a banquet, Lord Shangshu must finish eating before leaving, otherwise, it will be my Chu Xian's hospitality." ”
Sitting opposite, it was the head of the household.
It turned out that this Hubu Shangshu came earlier than Liu Jiwen, and this Hubu Shangshu obviously understood how much authority Chu Xian would have in the future, plus they had a good relationship before, and many ideas could be compatible, just like Chu Xian's implementation of land change before, if there was no Hubu Shangshu's full support, it would be impossible to have this kind of achievement in three years.
Although Chu Xian chose to support Wang Shenling in Shangshu Ling, Hubu Shangshu was somewhat unhappy in his heart, but this displeasure completely disappeared after Chu Xian took the throne.
Because in the future, he has to submit affairs to Chu Xian, and many things have to follow Chu Xian's instructions.
The head of the household department also quickly accepted this result, and he was the first to talk to Chu Xian about the affairs of the household department, just now, they were still talking about the official institutions of the household department. Maybe he knew that Chu Xian and Liu Jiwen didn't have a good relationship before, and the Hubu Shangshu himself was very dissatisfied with Liu Jiwen, Liu Jiwen relied on Li Yuanming as a backer, and he was not very respectful to the Hubu Shangshu, and even did a lot of things that violated the yin and yang, these things, the Hubu Shangshu kept in mind, so just now, the Hubu Shangshu was intentionally or unintentionally testing Chu Xian, wanting to move Liu Jiwen.
However, Liu Jiwen is a member of the Shoufu Pavilion after all, so even if he is a subordinate of the Household Ministry, the Household Ministry Shangshu does not have the right to move an official of this level, but he does not, but Chu Xian, the new Shangshu Ling, has.
If Chu Xian finds a reason to deal with Liu Jiwen, and the latter wants to keep his current official position, it will be difficult, after all, Chu Xian's influence in the Shoufu Pavilion is not trivial, whether it is with Xiao Yu Taishi, and Da Situ Da Sima, or the two generals, have a good personal relationship, even if it is Yang Zhenqing, in recent years, the relationship with Chu Xian has eased too much, although they are not yet friends, but at least there will be no more hostility, Chu Xian marries a wife and takes a concubine, Yang Zhenqing is all present in person, from this point of view, if Chu Xian wants to move Liu Jiwen, Yang Zhenqing will not object.
In this way, does Liu Jiwen still have a way to live?
It's just that just now, Chu Xian didn't say anything about this temptation, which made Hubu Shangshu a little confused, and he didn't know whether Chu Xian was willing or unhappy.
It stands to reason that when a new official takes office, especially an official of the level of Shang Shuling, he must establish his prestige as soon as he comes up.
How to set up?
It can be said that there is nothing more shocking than taking down a household servant and a head and auxiliary cabinet official as soon as he comes up, and when the time comes, this fire will definitely burn quite vigorously.
Of course, if Chu Xian chooses to deal with it in a low-key manner, or if he doesn't plan to make a big move and provoke a bloody storm when he first takes office, then most likely he won't move Liu Jiwen, but it is certain that if he doesn't move now, it doesn't mean that he won't move in the future.
At this time, Hubu Shangshu actually heard Liu Jiwen running to visit Chu Xian, and he immediately reacted, secretly saying that Liu Jiwen also knew the current affairs and knew when to bow his head.
If before, although Chu Xian was powerful, after all, his official position was comparable, so there was no need for Liu Jiwen to bow his head, then now, the situation is different, earth-shaking changes have taken place, Liu Jiwen bowed his head and confessed, that is a normal thing.
It's just that I didn't expect this Liu Jiwen to be so fast, almost a short time after his front foot arrived, he came.
Originally, it was not good for Hubu Shangshu to stay and disturb Chu Xian, but after thinking about it at this moment, he would definitely meet Liu Jiwen at the banquet for a while, so it was better to stay and see how this Liu Jiwen would perform in front of him, and how he would stammer Chu Xian.
After all, he is the head of the household department and Liu Jiwen's direct boss, and the other party came to see Chu Xian, but he actually came behind his back, which is a bit too much.
It's up to Liu Jiwen to deal with it.
Hubu Shangshu was actually looking forward to it at the moment, and at this moment he smiled and said, "Since Lord Chu is so gracious, then I will disturb it." ”
Chu Xian smiled, but didn't say much.
There are a lot of people who come to congratulate today, so it's normal to set up a banquet, this is only the first wave, it is estimated that it will be very soon, and the next wave and the next wave should come.
Sure enough, as Chu Xian expected, there was an endless stream of officials who came to 'congratulate him', and these were all high-ranking officials, and those who did not have enough official positions did not dare to come.
