The aftermath of this political struggle did not end so easily, and the incident of Zhang Zhao and Xu Jing entering the top management continued to expand the aftermath.

It seems like it is just a temporary low.

It seems that the next peak period is right in front of you.

Although now everyone doesn't want that peak period to come.

But how can the power struggle be smooth?

Who would be willing to do so if such important power cannot be held in hand?

The signs of the vulnerable groups in the central Wei State carried by Zhang Zhao and Xu Jing made them feel instinctively disgusted by the people of Qing, Yan and Ji, but they also won the favor of the people of Xuzhou, Yuzhou and Jiangnan.

This was the first group of vulnerable people who had gained a foothold in the power center of Wei after Guo Peng ascended the throne.

The people of Xuzhou are originally weak, and Mi Zhu's businessman was not seen by the scholars of Xuzhou at all. Finally, Lu Su was born, and everyone was happy as if they were nothing.

During the war, many people from Yuzhou followed Yuan Shao and were killed by Guo Peng in the war.

Therefore, although Guo Peng's ancestral home is Yuzhou, he has never liked the scholars of Yuzhou. The only one who has done well is Xun Yu. After Xun Yu's death, the scholars of Yuzhou were in a slump and fell into a marginal group.

Xun You, the representative of the scholars in Yuzhou, is a standard lonely minister.

The people of Yuzhou are both part of the Central Plains, but they are as miserable as the marginal groups in the three prefectures of Jiangnan. They are very unlucky no matter how they look at it.

But now, things have changed.

Guo Peng issued an edict to ask Xu Jing and Zhang Zhao to join forces to select officials to supplement the officials who were lacking due to political struggles. Zhang Zhao and Xu Jing bluntly filled in a large number of Xuzhou and Yuzhou officials.

In addition, it also filled a lot of officials from the three prefectures of Jiangnan.

When Cheng Yu and Cui Yan were in trouble, they also suffered from bad luck with two ministers of the Ministry of Personnel and two ministers of the Ministry of Rites. One person went down, and one person went down.

Taking this opportunity, Zhang Zhao and Xu Jing promoted two Xuzhou people, two Yuzhou people, one Yangzhou people and one Yizhou people to join these departments as minister-level officials to replace the positions monopolized by the Qing, Yan and Ji people.

In less than ten days, Zhang Zhao and Xu Jing selected more than 50 officials from disadvantaged areas to enter the Shangshutai according to Guo Peng's imperial edict.

More than 50 officials from disadvantaged areas who had previously worked in the Shangshutai were promoted to the promotion.

The composition of officials at Shangshutai has undergone major changes, and the number of officials from vulnerable areas has more than doubled in one go.

This is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that more than a dozen people entered major departments under the leadership of Zhang Zhao and Xu Jing to hold real power positions, replacing key positions that were originally completely controlled by people from the Qing, Yan and Ji prefectures, which changed the political ecology within the Shangshu Desk.

Officials from disadvantaged areas, or those who were later conquered, began to rise.

It is no longer suppressed by scholars from the Qing, Yan and Ji prefectures like before, and it is so difficult to breathe. If you want to be a high-ranking official, you have to be in the local area, and it is difficult to get to the central government.

If you don’t hold power in the central government, how can you be considered to have truly gained a foothold in the Wei Empire under the centralized system?

Officials from vulnerable areas have worked hard to do this, but unfortunately they have achieved little results and cannot cause any turmoil.

And now, they finally made waves.

Later, when he joined Guo Wei's group, he had no time to make much contribution to Guo Peng, so Guo Peng ascended the throne and became emperor. Then, the ministers of the first great enthronement after the founding of the country naturally had no share.

Now, after coming from the top, the hardships are over, and the power core of the Shangshutai is very enterprising. How can they not be happy, excited and excited about this?

After being promoted from a clerk in the Ministry of Civil Affairs to the Right Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Zhuge Jin was in a very good mood and he was very happy.

Zhuge Jin has the identity of an old official of the Guo family.

This will provide him with a political convenience, a convenience that can be regarded as a guarantee. As an old official of the Guo family, he himself has the qualification to become a high-ranking official.

But it is not certain when this qualification will be fulfilled.

People are divided into three or six grades, and officials are divided into three or six grades of officials - the Guo family's former official group is also divided into three or six grades.

The Guo family's former official who first followed Guo Peng was the top group, although Zhuge Jin, who later defected to him, was also the Guo family's former official.

However, because he was born in a weak area, he was also regarded as a backward student within the Guo family's old official group, and was suppressed and despised by the Guo family's old official who was born in the Qing, Yan and Ji prefectures.

Of course, the top political resources are first selected by them, and then they can get their turn to be the former officials of the Guo family who came from disadvantaged areas.

In his official career in the past few years, Zhuge Jin has also experienced the suppression and depression brought by this level of 30% and 40% of the time.

It was his request to enter the Shangshu Desk. Before Guo Peng had already become emperor, he entered the Shangshu Desk and worked under Cheng Yu's hands. This was the order of Guo Peng himself ordered.

However, after Guo Peng became emperor, he had the advantage of several years of work experience, but he failed to enter the front-line power ranks of Shangshutai.

After he was assigned to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Secretary of the Shangshu and the Minister of the Secretariat did not have his share, and even the Secretary-Wailang, who was subdivided within the eight ministries, could only go back.

In the end, Zhuge Jin was appointed as the deputy position of Yuanwailang.

Just because he was born in Xuzhou, he was only in a slight position in the [big family] of the former Guo family and his relatives.

But at least he is also a Luoyang Jing official and a central official.

Those officials from disadvantaged areas who are not former officials of the Guo family cannot even get official positions in Beijing from Luoyang, and cannot enjoy the convenient living conditions and superior political resources in Luoyang.

Even the official positions in the Gyeonggi area are not available, and the remote areas are full of these people working as officials.

This made Zhuge Jin very depressed for a while.

Otherwise, why do you say that people are more aggravated?

Cui Qu, the main criminal in the Cui Qu case, is younger than Zhuge Jin, but because of Cui Yan and Tian Feng, the Cui family, who is not an old official in the Guo family, is also taken care of by Tian.

By taking the shortcut as a half-time relative, he just entered the officialdom and became a deputy to the Yu Ministry of Works.

When Zhuge Jin's promotion was far away, Cui Qu had already made a great future in advance and could even reach into the Ministry of Personnel.

This made Zhuge Jin depressed for a while, and he complained about this with his younger brother Zhuge Liang and Zhuge, and even had the idea of ​​asking for help.

I feel that even if I put it outside the country, even if I am a county magistrate, I can express my ambitions, which is better than being someone else's subordinate in the Shangshutai.

Just because of his origin in Xuzhou!

And it's not a famous family!

Zhuge Liang, who was still in the cabinet at that time, and Zhuge Liang, who had just joined the Shangshutai, had no choice but to work as a minor errand runner.

As a result, the Cui Qu case broke out at the beginning of the third year of Yande, and a large number of nepotism groups holding the former officials of the Guo family were blood-scrapped by Guo Peng.

Guo Peng killed many people and drove away many people. Zhuge Jin was not implicated. He thought that a chance to counterattack had come, but he did not.

The senior management has not changed, so they will vigorously promote their own people.

People from the three prefectures of Qing, Yan and Ji were promoted on a large scale, and Zhuge Jin also gained benefits. He successfully became a Yuanwailang, but he did not get anything.

Despite this, it is far from Zhuge Jin's own idea.

Judging from his qualifications and achievements in working at the Shangshutai, he would not be just a minister.

It's because of origin.

Zhuge Jin hated his background extremely much and even had the idea of ​​changing his household registration to the three prefectures of Qing, Yan and Ji.

As a result, a year later, at the beginning of the fourth year of Yande, the political struggle between Chengyu Group and Tianfeng Group was completely detonated. The two fought endlessly, and they were fighting back and forth, causing swords and swords to kill everywhere in the court.

Sometimes Cheng Yu was in danger, sometimes Tian Feng was in a hurry, and the fencemen didn't know how to stand in a row, and the court was in chaos.

In a critical moment, Zhuge Jin followed Zhuge Liang's advice and did nothing. He hid at home because of illness and escaped a disaster.

But in the end, the profiteer was neither Tian Feng nor Cheng Yu, but Xu Jing and Zhang Zhao who won.

No one expected that Guo Peng would decisively attack the heroes, and then took back the vital power of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Rites and handed over to officials from two disadvantaged areas.

However, this is undoubtedly a major benefit for officials from the disadvantaged group of the world.

With the aftermath of this political struggle, a group of people were in trouble and could not become officials in their entire lives. Some people followed the trend and won because of their origins in a weak area.

After this struggle, Zhuge Jin was successfully promoted to the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and became a senior official at the deputy ministerial level.

When Zhuge Jin first learned the news, he had not reacted and thought it was auditory hallucination.

However, when the official who came to read the appointment document talked about this matter again and asked him to receive the order to thank him, he realized that he had reacted.

This is true, not fake, nor is it a dream!

He really became a senior official at the deputy ministerial level, and it was a miracle to cross the difficult gap.

After this incident, Zhuge Jin deeply realized what it means to lose his fortune. The identity of Xuzhou people he once hated brought him rewards at this moment.

There are many people like Zhuge Jin, and there are still more than a hundred people.

In this regard, the third force that can participate in the political situation of the court was gradually formed in the Shangshu Dean, and Zhuge Jin was an indispensable and well-known member.

Years of dormant and suppressed experience have made Zhuge Jin favored Zhang Zhao, promoted Zhuge Jin with all his might, and won Guo Peng's recognition.

People from Xuzhou, from Yuzhou, and from the three prefectures in Jiangnan.

These errand runners who were originally in an awkward position became the group of people who made the final profit in this wave of political struggle.

They were like a building block with extremely compatible shapes, inserted into the power center that had leaked out of the Wei Empire.

A large piece of the crony network built by scholars in Qing, Yan and Ji were dug out.

They can no longer maintain a comprehensive monopoly on the top political resources of the Wei Empire.

These vulnerable officials are extremely excited and extremely grateful for their ability to have such a situation.

With such an idea, Zhuge Jin also devoted himself to the heavy work with full emotions.

They can finally raise their heads and chests to work.

Moreover, the officials of Chengyu Group and Tianfeng Group who were attacked were relatively depressed for a period of time, and their style of behavior was cautious and very cautious.

They have two completely different spirits from vulnerable officials who are bold and enterprising to show themselves.

Seeing the colleagues around me constantly striving for progress and feeling the beautiful future that I can yearn for, Zhuge Jin was very happy.

Therefore, Zhuge Jin felt incomprehensible about Zhuge Liang's idea of ​​hoping to get an opportunity to release the situation.
