Chapter 223 Shangshu Lying Down
Ouyang Bijin did not panic at all when he received the summons from the emperor.
To be honest, he had just been promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and this Ministry of Industry was different from other departments.
The Ministry of Industry is the last department among the six departments. In addition to the usual maintenance and construction of palaces and emperor's mausoleums.
In other matters, even if the Ministry of Industry wanted to intervene, it was unable to intervene.
For example, the most critical Huanghuai management and canal dredging projects are usually the most critical.
These have dedicated river governors and water transport governors.
In addition, in order to allow these governors to manage the Huanghuai floods and canal affairs more efficiently, the imperial court would give the river governors and canal transport governors the title of Minister of the Processing Department.
These people are already ministers, so naturally they will not take the serious minister of the Ministry of Industry seriously.
The minister of the Ministry of Industry in the capital is actually very leisurely.
But it is such a quiet yamen, but the people who come in are more vigorous than the others.
For example, Yan Shifan, relying on his father's relationship, was favored by Emperor Jiajing to become the Minister of Industry.
And this is nothing, the key is that now Yan Shifan can actually inherit the grace of the Holy Spirit and follow Yan Song into the cabinet.
For Ouyang Bijin, this is definitely an existence that needs to be looked up to.
Because Ouyang Bijin also knows his upper limit very well, he will probably only be a minister of the Ministry of Industry in this life. If he is lucky, he may be gifted a third orphan or third young master from the first rank in the future.
He couldn't ask for anything else.
So Ouyang Bijin is very clear about his position. As long as he survives for a few years without making any achievements, it is enough to retire and return home peacefully.
So for the current matters in the Ministry of Industry, Ouyang Bijin is proceeding according to the previous work rules. He has never thought about how to innovate his work and obtain the Holy Family.
Now that His Majesty the Emperor suddenly summoned him, Ouyang Bijin vaguely understood what was going on.
But he never expected that Emperor Jiajing would be angry because of his carelessness.
Of course, Ouyang Bijin would not think that he was just being careless, he would even think that he was doing his job conscientiously.
By the time Ouyang Bijin arrived in Xiyuan, Yan Shifan had repeatedly assured his father Yan Song of his purity and innocence.
Yan Song couldn't help but sigh when he looked at his son, who was so smart that he could only swear.
Yan Song finally said to Yan Shifan: "In this case, no matter what you do from now on, you must remember today's attitude. You must not admit any problems. Have you remembered?"< br>
When Yan Song said this, Yan Shifan couldn't help but feel a little scared, and his eyes were a little evasive. He whispered back slightly out of breath: "My son has remembered it."
Yan Song couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard Yan Shifan's lack of confidence in his response.
This kid is not determined enough to be a bad guy. What will he do next?
But this is not the time for Yan Song to continue educating Yan Shifan.
After all, Yan Shifan is quite old. Even if he teaches many things straightforwardly, it will be in vain if Yan Shifan himself does not understand them.
Moreover, now that the emperor’s summons is so urgent, how can he have time to say anything else?
So at this time, Yan Song also waved his hand, "Go ahead, don't be afraid if you have any problems, there is still dad."
Yan Shifan left Yan Song with some guilt.
When he came out of the duty house and saw Ouyang Bijin, he did not greet Ouyang Bijin politely, but walked up to Ouyang Bijin arrogantly.
Yan Shifan looked at Ouyang Bijin, his attitude at this moment was like a boss reprimanding a subordinate, "Ouyang Shangshu, what did you do? Why did your majesty make you so anxious to summon us?"
Ouyang Bijin was very unhappy when he heard Yan Shifan's tone and looked at Yan Shifan's attitude. Who exactly is the official?
But unfortunately Yan Shifan had a good father and was admitted to the cabinet by Emperor Jiajing, so even though he was Yan Shifan's immediate boss, Ouyang Bijin acted like a subordinate.
Ouyang Bijin replied awkwardly: "I don't know why your majesty summoned me. Does Mr. Xiaoge have a clear explanation?"
Yan Shifan glanced at Ouyang Bijin with disdain. "What else can happen? Isn't it just the expansion of the capital that I want you to take care of?"
When Ouyang Bijin heard this, he immediately felt relieved, "Don't worry, Mr. Xiaoge, I will take care of this matter." I have been keeping a close eye on the latest plan, and I submitted it only after confirming it several times.”
Yan Shifan looked at Ouyang Bijin who was so confident, and he couldn't help but hesitate a little, "Isn't it about the expansion of the capital?"
Yan Shifan was a little unconfident. If he had known that in normal times, he would guess that Emperor Jiajing His thoughts can be guessed accurately.
Now that Ouyang Bijin is so sure of his plan, what will happen?
Yan Shifan said: "Okay, okay, don't say any more, come into the palace quickly."
Ouyang Bijin couldn't help but sneered when he heard Yan Shifan's words, "It's not you who must Want to stop me and ask questions?”
The two of them came to the Wanshou Palace with their own thoughts and asked to see your majesty.
After a while, the messenger eunuch from the Longevity Palace also came and took them into the palace, and then walked towards the monastery where Emperor Jiajing was repairing.
However, not everyone can enter this monastery.
Like Yan Shifan and Ouyang Bijin, even when they arrived here, they could only kneel in front of the monastery door and talk through a screen.
“Ouyang Bijin, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Industry (Yan Shifan, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Engineering), comes to see Your Majesty.”
Emperor Jiajing, who was sitting on a futon in the golden tent inside the monastery, slowly opened his eyes after hearing the voices of Yan Shifan and Ouyang Bijin in front of the monastery.
Emperor Jiajing asked: "What did we talk about when we were in front of the palace?"
When the two of them heard Emperor Jiajing's question, they were frightened and even knelt down.
The two buried their heads deeply, "Your Majesty, forgive me."
Emperor Jiajing snorted, "Forgive me, forgive me. What crime do you forgive me for?"
< br>
Yan Shifan and Ouyang Bijin became even more frightened. They put their heads directly on the ground and stuck their buttocks out. They didn't even dare to express their anger, lest they say the wrong thing again and make Emperor Jiajing even more angry.
Emperor Jiajing did not hear any more responses from the two men, and felt uncomfortable in his heart.
"Huang Jin went and took out that bastard memorial and showed it to them both."
As soon as Emperor Jiajing said these words, an unknown fire suddenly rose in Yan Shifan's heart. Ouyang Bijin turned his head and glanced at Ouyang Bijin bitterly, as if asking: "Didn't you say it wasn't this?"
Ouyang Bijin also looked confused at this moment, and he never expected that it would be like this. thing.
He had carefully read the memorials on the capital expansion plan submitted to Yu Lan, so why was there still a problem? This shouldn't be the case!
Then the voice of Emperor Jiajing rang again, "I told you that the expansion of the capital is extraordinary and cannot be accomplished by the planning and construction of ordinary cities. The capital is the foundation of the country. See for yourselves. What’s your plan? Are you going to build me a straw shed and shame me for eternity?”
Emperor Jiajing asked Yan Shifan and Ouyang Bijin angrily, was he going to be punished? I'm so angry, why couldn't these two people understand what he meant?
When he thought of Zhu Zaijing's suggestion again, Emperor Jiajing's face became even more ugly. He couldn't even copy it for them. He was so angry!
“Didn’t I ask Feng Bao to take you around to look around? Tell me, where did you go during this time? What did you see?”
Emperor Jiajing questioned Ouyang Bijin again.
