Chapter 244

"Marquis Wushuang, you handled yesterday's matter extremely beautifully! Upon taking office, you solved the City Guard's problem, and you even uncovered a major treason case! At the morning court later, I will definitely speak impartially!"

Then the second person was Censor-in-Chief Qi Mu.

The Censor-in-Chief was a fourth-rank official.

One of the major villains in "A Dream of Splendor."

This guy, on the surface, was like Observation Commissioner Gao Hu, a member of the 'Pure Stream' faction.

But Observation Commissioner Gao Hu was a true member of the 'Pure Stream.'

This position was similar to modern inspection agencies, political integrity offices, and the Independent Commission Against Corruption.

However, this guy was an ambitious person.

So he pretended very well.

When they met, he did not flatter or congratulate Jia Hui on his promotion like the previous one.

... 0 seeking flowers 0...

Instead, he said he did his job well.

Jia Hui laughed secretly, "Who are you pretending for? I saw through the head inside your turtle shell long ago!"

On the surface, Jia Hui laughed proudly: "Of course, I am Jia Hui; there is nothing I cannot do! Yesterday was just a small matter, a small matter!"

This left Qi Mu looking completely bewildered.

He was suspicious in his heart, "Is this guy a true brute? Or is he pretending? Looking at this, could it be that yesterday was just a lucky strike??"

He did not understand but felt it was powerful.

He looked deeply at Jia Hui.

And did not chat much more.

Maintaining his status, he followed and left.

The last to come was Marquis Yan, Yan Que.

There were many Marquises in the Great Gan.

Among the recent new Marquises, there were four great Marquises.

Marquis Yongping, Xu Lingyi!

Marquis Ningguo, Xie Yu!

Marquis Jingyuan!

And this Marquis Yan, Yan Que.

From "Nirvana in Fire."

Marquis Yan, Yan Que, was the brother of Empress Xuan, Liu E.

As for why one had the surname Liu and the other Yan.

It was said that the Empress was adopted by a relative when she was young.

But in reality, the two were biological siblings.

This Marquis Yan, Yan Que, in Jia Hui's memory, had a detached and upright temperament, hailed as an outstanding envoy whose eloquence could suppress all officials and whose courage could calm a tyrant, like Lin Xiangru.

In his youth, he was high-spirited, a close friend of Marshal Lin, and helped the Emperor conquer the world.

He deeply loved a woman, Lin Leyao, but unfortunately, this Lin Leyao was married by Emperor Yongshun and titled Consort Chen.

Later, Yan Que was heartbroken and retired, secretly plotting to assassinate Emperor Yongshun due to the old case of Prince Qi.

Of course, the assassination had not happened yet.

"I admire you."

This Yan Que was dressed in a brown-gold cotton robe, his figure tall but slightly hunched.

Although his temples were gray and his face had gullies, he did not make people feel old; he looked to be in his forties or fifties, only slightly older than the previous two.

This one was not as slick as Baili Yan, coming to congratulate Jia Hui immediately.

Nor was he like Qi Mu, pretending to be fair and chatting about cases.

But rather, he said a nonsensical sentence.

Subsequently, he said indifferently.

"However, be careful; what is too rigid is easily broken, and the tree that stands above the forest will be destroyed by the wind!"

A word of warning.

After speaking, he left silently.

Scratching his handsome face, Jia Hui turned his head and asked Sheng Hong and the others:

"Are all these high officials so maverick?"

Sheng Hong and the others: "..." Nine.

【169】 Provoking Wang Ziteng at the morning court! Wang Ziteng explodes in anger

Today was the second time attending the morning court.

Arriving at the court.

Jia Hui immediately received a large batch of resentful and hateful gazes!

Needless to say.

They were all the military meritocrats of the founding generation!

Other factions.

Such as the civil officials, were all watching the military meritocrats with schadenfreude.

Yesterday's good show.

Did not cause any damage to the civil officials and other forces.

The unlucky ones were the military meritocrats.

These civil officials had always looked down on the military meritocrats and were at odds with them, suppressing them crazily.

So seeing the military meritocrats fall, they indeed had reason to be happy.

After all, it was too difficult for these civil officials to obtain nobility.

Even if they could obtain it, it was low-level nobility; even if they became Cabinet Chief Secretary, it was extremely difficult for anyone to reach Supra-Rank.

The civil officials, who had always considered themselves extraordinary, naturally did not want a group of military meritocrats with noble titles to show off above their heads.

In short, due to disputes over interests, status, and identity, it was unlikely they would play together with the military meritocrats.

Unless some ambitious "five-four-three" families had rebellious intentions.

However, even ambitious people like Censor-in-Chief Qi Mu, at most, only wanted to reach a position of power over the court and become powerful ministers.

Those with the intention to rebel, including Wu Youjue, did not exceed the number of one hand.

And Wu Youjue did not belong to the civil officials either.

Regarding this, Jia Hui was happy to see it happen.

The civil official group and the military meritocrats being at odds was beneficial to him.

He was not afraid of the civil and military officials in the court attacking him together.

There were even scholars waving flags and shouting for him.

Although he himself was also a military meritocrat and a military general.

As for the angry gazes of Old Niu and the others.

Jia Hui did not mind at all; on the contrary, he was laughing happily.

Because he had signed in dozens more troops.

Because it was not the first time signing in.

So there were fewer.

But it was still not bad.

Dozens of people every day, and after a month, there would be several hundred.
