On his 65th birthday, Bao Zhao held a feast in his mansion.

The invitation was not only the cabinet ministers, but also the Liudu Department Hall, and the old friends of Baozhao received the invitation.

The premiere of the cabinet celebrates his birthday. Who dares not give me any face in the court? Even if you really have something to do, you will always have the etiquette in terms of etiquette. This is also a kind of bribery act in ancient times.

Some colleagues are still wondering why the Fengge Master, who has always been low-key, suddenly remembers that he is going to celebrate his birthday?

This is the first time that Bao Zhao has held his birthday for himself after four years of serving in the cabinet.

Only Yu Xin and others, who are also ministers of the cabinet, knew that Bao Zhao was arranging the "afterlife". In a few days, the Winter Moon Grand Court Meeting will be held. On that day, the Bao Zhao meeting will give a speech. From then on, he bid farewell to the Ming Dynasty court, and bid farewell to his chief minister, and return to his hometown to enjoy his old age.

This time, I have to go to the sea of ​​things I really want to say.

After the time of the day, the Fengzhao Mansion located on West Chang'an Street was already crowded with people. Countless officials and nobles wearing official robes or wearing Su Jin came to the door one after another with their servants holding gifts. They put down their gifts on the ceremonial platform outside the main hall, and exchanged a few greetings with the Fengzhao's house manager who was responsible for the greeting. Then they would walk on the side hall, and the Fengzhao's son was responsible for the reception.

The main hall is not something that ordinary people can enter. Except for the Liudu Department, the Censorate, and the Dali Temple, who are worthy of entering the main hall to have a chat with Bao Zhao. At most, at the dinner at night, Bao Zhao will go to the side hall to show his face. Everyone said two generous words and said a few auspicious words.

In the official hall of the Baozhao Mansion, which is the best in the official position, it is inevitable that there will be some things in the political court. It is not their turn to listen to the officials who are low-ranking.

"I wish you a happy birthday to the Master of Blast. May your Master of Blast be as blessed as the flowing water in the East China Sea and as long as the pine trees in the South Mountains."

Bao Zhao stayed in the main hall to drink tea, waiting for the first court official to enter the main hall. When he heard the sound, he raised his eyelids and felt as if he had eaten a fly in his heart.

The first one turned out to be Yang Shiqi!

When he saw Yang Shiqi, Bao Zhao felt disgusted, but his face was not easy to get angry. He stood up and took two steps to face: "Haha, Shiqi is here, please take your seat soon."

Yang Shiqi first bowed his hand and took a tribute, and then fell to the first position of the right hand in the lead of Bao Zhao. The left hand position was naturally left for Yu Xin.

"I am happy to see Master Ge in my 60s, but I am still so radiant. Master Ge is the pillar of my Ming Dynasty to hold the sky and build a golden beam. I really hope Master Ge can maintain good health forever so that I can continue to protect my Ming Dynasty and the country."

The scene was beautiful. Even if the two of them had disagreements, the so-called "no slap on the smiling people" was the saying that Yang Shiqi was happy and quickly waved his hands to humble himself.

"Shiqi is really too famous. Is he just silly and can't sit still? In the future, it will still depend on the care and care of his colleagues."

The two of them pretended to be polite. After a while, the number of imperial officials who had been enrolled in the main hall increased. Soon, they sat in the lobby in a full magnitude. Those who came in later had to carry some stools and sat in the high seats on both sides for a while and listened.

"I have set up a dinner party. My colleagues should drink some tea and wait until the backyard is ready to eat and drink before going with me."

Everyone kept saying, "I'm upsetting my elder brother."

"Today I invite everyone to come, one is because I am on a birthday, so I invite you to come and drink. Two is because I am old and want to entrust some things."

When he heard Bao Zhao use the word "entrusted", the lobby became quiet. No one said anything more. He calmed down and waited for Bao Zhao's following.

"There is another day, it will be the great dynasty meeting of the winter moon. I have decided to send a speech to His Majesty on that day and return home."

Bao Zhao's words immediately caused an uproar in the lobby.

Bao Zhao is the chief minister of the cabinet, he is actually going to retire!

Do you know how many people want to sit in your position? You don’t know how to cherish it at all!

The ministers of the six ministries all secretly gave a thumbs up in their hearts, and they looked at the fact that they were violent and the chief minister of the cabinet was going to retire. If I were the chief minister of the cabinet, I would have to die in office to have fun and live in vain.

"The state affairs are complicated, and the country and the country cannot be separated from the cabinet."

Mao Tai, the Minister of Personnel, advised him: "I hope that the Pavilion Master will think more and think carefully. The center cannot be separated from the Pavilion Master, and the place cannot be separated from the Pavilion Master."

Mao Tai reminded Bao Zhao again, everyone is stumbling with you, some of them are not settled yet, so it is too unrighteous to just pat your butt and leave. At least, it is better to work for a few more years, and it is better to help some brothers on the horse and send them to the journey.

"I'm old, old."

Bao Zhao pretended not to understand and waved his hand as if he was tired: "Although I have only been in the position of chief minister for four years, I often feel exhausted so that I feel incompetent. National affairs are changing, and I am not capable enough to handle it. I should abdicate and give up my virtuous people, return home to play with my grandchildren, enjoy family life, and work hard every day between farming and the mountains and fields. Isn't that beautiful?"

The emperor has too many troubles and I can't serve him, so I don't do it. If you have any complaints, don't look for me, let alone me in the future.

After a few more words of persuasion, everyone knew that Bao Zhao had made up his mind, so he stopped talking, and they all fell silent, and they began to calculate and estimate.

When Bao Zhao leaves, who will take over?

In the main hall, these dozens of gazes were moving back and forth between Yu Xin and Yang Shiqi.

"It's good if you retreat. No one can see through or say the future, except Your Majesty. I envy the chance to retreat bravely."

At this time, Yu Xin suddenly spoke, but except for the four people in the cabinet, the others couldn't understand anything.

The emperor was involved in the newspaper office, except Fang Xiaoru, who did not understand, the other three were not human beings? When he returned to the mansion, he couldn't help but admire the emperor's move. In the past, the emperor's struggle for power, the left and right were nothing more than the court balance, and the seizing power from top to bottom, while the reporting bureau was to seize power from bottom to top!

Control the lowest-level public opinion trend, control people's hearts, promise a bright future, and take profit as a trend, and you can overturn the position of ministers in the court in an instant. Judging from the emperor's posture, there may be major events in the future. At this critical moment, it is indeed better to leave early.

And Yang Shiqi has to understand more clearly than they have.

Newspapers are just carriers of thought, and they are not very useful to the court. They are nothing more than controlling academic thoughts and guiding the concept of governing the country. What is really important is the Taiwanese students who were captured by the emperor.

A group of people who fought with the old Confucianism in newspapers and magazines, collided and integrated to produce new ideas, and then Taiwan came to practice and prove that this was the emperor's most cleverness.

Use theory to promote practice, and then use practice to verify theory in turn. The two sides work together to find the best way to govern the country. This is the best choice for this country. If you have theory without practice, even if the slogan is shouted loudly, the emperor will not rashly use these young students to replace the position of court officials to govern the country. If practice alone has no channels for publicity, it will not allow people in the world to see the results, and naturally it will not convince others and cannot call on everyone to learn.

Governing a big country is like cooking a young man. The emperor is very skilled in planning a country. He will not retreat bravely. If he doesn't have a good ending when he has sunset, he will not end up in a good way.

After a few chatted a few more times, a servant came to report the news from the backyard.

"Master Ge, the banquet has been set up. Please move to the back hall with all the lords."

Everyone stood up with Bao Zhao and walked towards the backyard with a smile. Bao Zhao held Yu Xin's arm. The two of them were determined to say a few words, and then they saw the butler coming over and whispered a few times in Bao Zhao's ear.

"Dunmoto goes first, I will deal with some trivial matters in the house."

Bao Zhao smiled, greeted him, turned around and hurriedly opened the envelope, and looked at it and his face was as dark as ink.

"Bold and act reckless!"

"Master, how should I go back?"

The housekeeper was also worried, thinking that the fact was too outrageous.

What a fuck!

Bao Zhao cursed in his heart, and then his expression was as good as before, without any clues.

"Term this letter to the Ministry of Communications and sent to the Otakura!"

The housekeeper was shocked. This matter is very important, so I will give it to the emperor?

Bao Zhao smiled, but did not explain much, and turned to celebrate his birthday.

I am all about to retire. It’s time to get off the boat and go ashore to rest. You can go play for yourself!

If you plan for future generations, you cannot go against the emperor, especially this emperor, who has more means than Taizu.
Chapter completed!
