Luck in the heavens starts from the Red Mansion

Chapter 66: Mr. Zheng was put on fire (please follow up)

"I heard no, I want to take a further step in the officialdom!"

"It's unlikely. I've been working at the Ministry of Industry for almost twenty years. If I could have gone a step further, I would have jumped out a long time ago. How could I suddenly be promoted now?"

"You don't know this, right? I heard that because of the huge deficit in the official warehouse, the current emperor was furious, and many officials were convicted and imprisoned. There was a lot of empty space, both in the court and in the local area. There are few official positions with real power, and it is these vacancies that I am eyeing!"

"That's it. It seems that the master's chances are not small this time!"

"Indeed, with the master's energy and the reputation of the Rong Mansion, it is quite easy to take a further step in the officialdom at this juncture!"

"It seems that the master is also lucky, but I don't know which official position he will choose?"

"Either the Liang Dao or the Ministry of Revenue, they are all top-notch fat men!"

This is the topic that the concierge of Rong Mansion and the servants in the outer courtyard talk about most recently.

As for the backyard, there is also a lot of news that the second master of the government wants to seek a higher official position.

"Sister, have you heard that the master is going to be promoted recently!"

"What, the master is about to be promoted, what a joy to congratulate him!"

"It's indeed gratifying. When the master gets promoted, the old lady will be so happy that she can't stop grinning from ear to ear!"

"Yes, after how many years of waiting, it's time for me to take a step further!"

"According to me, it's probably due to good luck, and maybe I'll be successful in the future!"

"The relationship is so good, I'm afraid the reward from the mansion will be indispensable!"

"Haha, is it possible, sister, that you still rely on the monthly salary and rewards from the mansion?"

"Don't say anything that violates taboos. Let's wait for the good news from the master!"

The words of the women are a bit unpleasant. If Mr. Zheng Er heard such nonsense as "the old tree finally bloomed new flowers" and "the master finally got what he wanted", he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.

This rumor was so powerful that even the old lady sitting in the Rongqing Hall as a Bodhisattva heard it.

The old lady was a little surprised and a little happy, so she directly called Mr. Zheng to Rongqing Hall for questioning.

"Mom, I'm still thinking about this matter. I don't know why it got spread?"

Mr. Zheng Er was a little confused when he heard the question, but he answered honestly: "According to the current situation, if it works well, the certainty is not small!"

"It's just that the imperial court is currently going to war over the drought. If we rush to take action at this time, the risk is still very high. So I have to wait and see!"

"Second brother, you can't wait and see anymore, you must make a decision as soon as possible!"

The old lady was a little disappointed, but still reminded: "The news has spread in the house. I believe it will spread outside in a short time. There is no way to stop it even if you want!"

She is very familiar with the situation in the house and knows that the children in the house are not trustworthy.

"this……"

Mr. Zheng Er is in a bit of a dilemma, he really hasn't made up his mind yet.

As a result, just as the old lady said, from inside to outside the house, the entire Ningrong Street knew the news, and there were endless discussions.

The main reason is that Mr. Zheng Er's reputation as a thorn in the Ministry of Industry is too strong.

I suddenly heard that the second master of the government, who was the laughing stock of the powerful circles, was determined to work hard in his old age, which naturally attracted many curious and probing eyes.

If you really want to talk about it, the performance of the second master Zheng is indeed a shame for the powerful!

When the Ningrong Palace was at its peak, he was the undisputed leader of the Eight Founding Lords. Even the power and energy of the four kings of the opposite sex may not be comparable to him.

But how long has it been?

Mr. Pardon won’t say much more, because when he deposed the prince, he was almost deposed.

Who would have expected that Mr. Zheng Er would actually become a nail-biter in the Ministry of Works?

Staying in the position of the sixth-rank chief and the fifth-rank minister and wailang for twenty years?

For the eighth prince of the founding of the country, his position in the officialdom was the lowest, and he was not even qualified to go to court, which was simply embarrassing.

Now, when I suddenly heard that Mr. Zheng was showing signs of blooming, how could he not attract attention?

The rumors became more and more powerful, and even later, it became a definite thing.

Even the steward of Rong Mansion would say a word or two consciously or unconsciously when he went out to do business.

Then, the outside stewards of other families found out, and the family bosses behind them naturally heard about it too.

"Jia Cunzhou wants to go further? Why haven't you heard any rumors about his activities?"

"Jia Cunzhou's brain finally opened up, but this is also a good thing!"

"It seems that Ning Rong's Second Mansion is unwilling to be lonely. We need to pay close attention to it in the future!"

"It would be great if Jia Cunzhou can occupy a position, so as to prevent the power of our noble lineage from continuing to shrink!"

"..."

In short, there is anything to say.

Whether it was outside the house or inside the house, the news had spread in a short period of time, and everyone's eyes were focused on the second master Zheng.

Even though Mr. Pardon, who always ignored the affairs of the government, rarely asked Lian Er to pay attention, he wanted to know the latest situation.

What is this called? This is called public opinion and momentum!

Seeing that the momentum was almost there, Jia Huan asked directly during a routine greeting one day: "Master, there has been a lot of rumors outside about your promotion!"

"It's almost working now, congratulations to the master for getting what he wanted!"

He saw with his own eyes that Mr. Zheng Er had an abnormal twitching at the corner of his mouth.

His originally gentle expression turned extremely ugly, and he said angrily: "I don't know who spread the word. I haven't had time to start operating it yet!"

"Can't?"

Jia Huan said in surprise: "According to the rumors outside, my promotion is a definite matter in the class. I'm afraid many people have already believed it!"

"If I let them know that I haven't taken any concrete action yet, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to my reputation!"

Mr. Zheng Er's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. This was what made him most depressed.

Now the public opinion outside has risen, and the commotion is quite big. Even some of the noble family bosses have the impression that if he fails to do it, he will be embarrassed.

This is definitely something that is unacceptable to Mr. Zheng Er, who loves his face very much.

It can be said that he was being roasted on the fire at this time. If he knew that he was the one who spread the rumors, he would definitely not be polite and would definitely know how powerful he was.

A group of Qing guests remained silent, but there was some expectation in their hearts.

They were all a little bit offended by Mr. Zheng Er's tepid temperament in doing things, but there was nothing they could do.

Now it's better. Mr. Zheng Er is in the spotlight of public opinion, and it's impossible to back down even if he wants to.
