Fu Yuzhi leaned closer to Zhao Xuanji and whispered, "Elder Zhao, in your opinion, what position would this Daitang Jing take if he enters the officialdom"

Zhaoxuanji said faintly, "With his prestige, even if he asked the old man to give him the position of elder, it would be no problem at all."

Wang Tenghuan immediately spoke up: "Impossible, this position isn't enough with just prestige..."

Before Wang Tenghuan could finish his sentence, he noticed the other people staring at him with dumbfounded expressions.

Wang Tenghuan's face darkened, and he said, "What are you looking at me for What I said is the truth."

"Fu YuZhi softly said: 'If the East Palace doesn't want the court to split into four or five factions and fight us completely, it absolutely wouldn't dare to touch the position of Grand Councilor. They also can't do anything about it.'"

Just as how we are now clamouring for the abolition of the crown prince is like a fool's dream.

Wang Tenghuan's face darkened, and he said, "The East Palace has truly become a force to be reckoned with."

It's already done.

Zhao Xuanji said neither too warmly nor too coldly, "In my opinion, Dantang Jing's entry into the service is bound to not involve any real power. He is merely a symbol, a symbol that the East Palace urgently needs to attract scholars from all over the world. Therefore, it is highly likely that he will be given an empty title."

"Actually, no matter what position he holds, it makes no difference to us."

Zhao Xuanji clenched his fist slightly, a look of regret appearing on his face for the first time. He said, "First, we guaranteed Xu Changqing's safety, earning us a good reputation. Then, we lured Dantai Jingzhi over, winning the hearts of the people. And all of this stemmed from our actions against Xu Changqing. This move, it seems now, was a wrong one."

Zhang Biwu spoke up to comfort him: "Your Excellency, back then none of us expected this. We can only say that the East Palace did have some skill in utilizing the situation. In the midst of chaos, he managed to turn what was unfavorable against him into an advantage."

"Right now, what we need to focus on is how to deal with the East Palace's move."

Zhao Xuanji glanced at the three people and said, "This is exactly what this old man was thinking. Everyone, let's brainstorm together. We can't retreat any further."

Wang Tenghuan hesitated and said, "Perhaps we should oppose the East Palace's decree to bestow a higher rank upon Dantang Jingzhi"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately looked at me with eyes that seemed to say I was an idiot.

Wang Tenghuan glared angrily at Zhang Biwu, who was staring at him with those eyes, and said: "Zhang sir, what do you mean by looking at me like that"

Zhang Biwu frowned and said, "Wang Dairen, you lost an ear, how come you can't even think straight"

"Oppose With what"

"Let's not even mention that the East Palace has the power to act as regent. Holding absolute power over appointments and dismissals of officials, it simply goes against legal principles."

Even if we tried to oppose him, who is Dantai Jing He's a renowned figure, his works are known throughout the land. Every scholar has read his books.

"Over the years, how many students has he taught If you say a single call would summon thousands, it wouldn't be an exaggeration. You stand up to oppose him, aren't you looking for death"

"Those students' saliva could drown your entire palace."

Wang Tenghuan was lectured so badly that his face flushed red and then pale. He felt that everything Zhang Biwu said, both explicitly and implicitly, was disrespectful to him. He gritted his teeth and said: "So according to what you're saying, we can only swallow our pride and accept it"

"Acknowledge!"

Fu Yuzhi suddenly spoke, he slowly stroked his beard and said: "This matter has come to this point, whether we recognize it or not, Dantai Jing himself nodded, then his successful entry into the court is a foregone conclusion. Opposing it is futile and will only put us at a disadvantage first, falling right into the hands of the Eastern Palace. Therefore, we must recognize it."e, you must take good care of yourself. No matter how busy your official duties are, your health always comes first."Li Chen also said, "That makes sense... The general has an injury Is it related Has...
