"No, won't take the exam?" The second housekeeper felt a bolt from the blue, and his head was buzzing, and he couldn't wait for a while.

"Wait here, when you arrive in Chenchu, go to the Ministry of Justice to pick up the master home to recuperate." Shen Rui looked away and looked at the glazed lamp.

This is his choice. Even if Chen Cang cannot extend his life span, he will not regret it.

The second butler's expression changed drastically, but he was stammering and unable to speak. Although there was a big butler in front of him, because the big butler was old, the second butler now took care of the common affairs of the Shangshu Mansion. He naturally had the body of Chen Cang. I also received the news, and I had already received the order from Chen Cang and Xu to hide the matter from it.

Seeing that Shen Rui was about to give up the exam, the second housekeeper wanted to persuade his young master to "the overall situation is the most important thing". But when he thought of his master's physical condition, he couldn't speak. He hung his head and whispered for a while: " Second brother, I'm afraid the master will be unhappy..."

Shen Rui said: "Some things can be done, but some things cannot be done..."

Even if Chen Cang "hides" well, the outside world would not criticize Shen Rui's fate because of this, but Shen Rui could not pass this hurdle in his heart. He was a human being for two lifetimes, but he still did it. If you don’t deceive yourself, you will still think that you don’t know after knowing this.

He could also guess Chen Cang's concerns and plans, but now the last game ends on the 15th is six days away. Since Chen Cang is sick, he should have a good time to recuperate at home instead of dragging him down one day. A sick body stays up in the yamen.

Shen Rui has always studied hard and worked hard, and it is all in everyone's eyes.

The second housekeeper really didn't expect that Shen Rui was so determined at the moment. After learning that the master was seriously ill, he chose to give up the exam without hesitation.

The master and servant have been together for four years, and they also see Shen Rui's personality and the second housekeeper. They also know that since he has made a decision, he will not change his mind easily.

The second housekeeper felt so sad. I don’t know if he was relieved of Shen Rui’s filial piety or worried about the future of the Shangshu Mansion.

The master and servant did not deliberately suppress the volume. The two of them were already shocked.

Since the elders in the mansion wanted to hide it from Shen Rui, they naturally hid all the people around him. Changshou and Changfu were two, and they did not know about Chen Cang's disease until now.

If it is a minor illness, Shen Rui will not make the decision to give up the exam; if it is a serious illness, then the master has already had spring and autumn, what if...

Thinking of this, Changshou and Changfu both were worried.

As the sky became brighter, cars and horses turned back from the Gongyuan direction.

When most of the carriages and horses were dispersed, the sound of gold sound came from the direction of the Gongyuan.

"Second brother, the gate of Gongyuan is closed..." The second butler raised his head: "Why go home first?"

Shen Rui shook his head and said, "Go straight to the yamen..."

After taking Chen Cang back, I explained to my elders together that I would like to say some things to the second time.

After Shen Rui gave the order, the second housekeeper got off the carriage and ordered everyone to go to the office of the Ministry of Justice.

Huang Huafang is in the southeast of the capital, while Fucaifang, where the Ministry of Justice is located, is in the southwest of the city. It has to pass through half of the capital.

In the city, the carriage could not run. After walking for more than half an hour, Shen Rui and his party arrived outside the Ministry of Justice.

Chen Cang has been the Secretary of Seal in the Ministry of Justice for more than three years. Many people in the Ministry of Justice know Shen Rui, the young master of Yanei. Therefore, Shen Rui did not get off the carriage, but ordered the second housekeeper to go to the yamen to pick up people.

The Shen family's carriage stopped at a secluded intersection.

In the yamen of the Ministry of Justice, Chen Cang sat behind the big case, his eyes turned dark. He coughed all night last night and didn't sleep well. Now he is head-heavy and has a muddy body. If he hadn't eaten another ginseng before coming out of his home, he would have a long life. Wan, he was afraid he couldn't even sit steadily.

Although ginseng can replenish vital energy, it is a dry and hot thing. He often loses energy. After taking ginseng Yanshou Pills, he can relieve it for a while, and he will cough, wheeze and weaken even more severely. Although things are good things, they are good things, which is the current physical condition of Shen Cang. In other words, it is a drinking poison to quench thirst.

It’s not that Chen Cang didn’t know its disadvantages, but he has to endure these few days, and he really has no choice.

He Dongsheng sat opposite, talking about official duties, but his eyes were staring at Chen Cang.

Chen Cang's discomfort fell in He Dongsheng's eyes.

He Dongsheng was gloating and was also suppressing his heart.

Since he is old but not dead, he is a thief. Since he is sick, why can't he take care of him? Three years ago, when He Dongsheng first came to the Ministry of Justice, he was just the right minister, but he was lucky. Last year, the left minister retired, so he got the advantage of the minister of the headquarters and was promoted to the left. Minister.

If Chen Cang is now taking leave due to illness, the government affairs of the Ministry of Justice will be temporarily replaced by He Dongsheng, the left assistant minister.

Chen Cang was already dizzy in front of him, but He Dongsheng was chattering again, and he had nothing to say, and couldn't help feeling impatient. He lowered his face and looked at He Dongsheng with a dark face.

With the accumulation of power, He Dongsheng's scalp was numb when he saw it, so he didn't dare to talk anymore. He found a ritual and stood up to say goodbye.

However, after walking out of the hall, He Dongsheng turned around, his eyes were deep, and his expression was hesitant. He was determined to reveal the illness of Chen Cang, but he was afraid that Chen Cang would not be seriously ill, so he would offend people in vain. Although Chen Cang still had a slap in a mess, he would offend others. He is not a subordinate of the Three Pavilion Masters, but he has several capable in-laws.

After turning around, He Dongsheng remembered the news from the Shen family's clan room. Shen Ji's family arrived in Beijing yesterday.

"It's time to call Shenzhi to ask, see what kind of disease this old guy is. His face is almost the same as a dead person." He Dongsheng thought to himself.

At this time, a chief officer came over and bowed to He Dongsheng. He Dongsheng waved his hand and turned around and left. He did not see the chief officer turning around and entering the hall.

"What? My housekeeper is here?" Chen Cang was a little confused, but he nodded and asked the head to bring people in.

The head of the company was obedient and covered up his door after passing the message.

Seeing that it was the second housekeeper, Chen Cang frowned and said, "Aren't you sending your second brother to the end? Why don't you come home to come here after the errand?"

Hearing a "thump" sound, the second housekeeper bent his knees and knelt down: "Master, the old slave is incompetent and did not persuade the second brother. The second brother did not enter the venue, and is now outside the yamen. He wants to take the master home to recuperate."

When Chen Cang heard this, his body trembled, stood up "lively", widened his eyes and said, "What did you say?"

The second housekeeper repeated it again.

Chen Cang was anxious for a moment and coughed again.

"When is it?" Chen Cang asked in a hurry as soon as his cough stopped.

"It's past Chenzheng (8 o'clock in the morning)......" The second housekeeper replied.

Chen Cang sat there, stunned for a while, and Fang Xu felt helpless: "This child is still a child..."

"Please take care of my second brother's filial piety and go home..." The second housekeeper was a child beside Chen Cang in his early years. The master and servant had a deep relationship. Looking at Chen Cang's dark face, he choked up.

Having come to this point, Chen Cang could only close his eyes and sigh, "Well, take a leave..."

When he opened his eyes again, Chen Cang's eyes flickered, there was no annoyance inside, but instead a little smile. He relaxed suddenly, no longer endured the discomfort on his body, and he coughed again, and until the end he was already carrying the corner of his mouth. Bloodshot.

The second housekeeper's face was as beautiful as earth, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help him sink to the Cang.

Chen Cang lowered his head, opened the drawer under the desk, and took out a note. He knew that his physical condition was already at the end of his strength, and he had been holding on since the Zhongyuan Festival, in order to prevent him from being able to hold on that day. I had already prepared a memorial to the official due to illness, and even a copy of the legacy.

"He Boda thought about it day and night, and today it is like a wish of a son." Chen Cang threw the memorial onto the desk and said without considering it.

In the Ministry of Justice, the Secretary of State is the chief official. Whether Chen Cang left the yamen and returned home, or directly sent someone to report the illness to the cabinet, or directly presenting the imperial court, it does not require any recognition.

However, Chen Cang has always been responsible and was unwilling to cause chaos in the yamen because of his hastily complaining about illness and delaying official duties. He called the head outside the door to come in and asked him to invite the two ministers to come over.

The two ministers, the left minister, were He Dongsheng, and the right minister was a foreign official who entered the capital and was a subordinate of Liu Ge Lao. However, he was not a core figure of the Liu Party and had been an official in the local area for a long time, and his qualifications were far inferior to He Dongsheng.

Both ministers saw that there was something different about Chen Cang.

Chen Cang handed the note to He Dongsheng and said, "The spring and autumn of this hall is high, and now the solar terms change, I feel very uncomfortable and I am afraid I will no longer be able to be competent for the ministry. This is the note of the retirement of this hall. I am troubled by the minister to send the cabinet on behalf of this hall..."

The right assistant minister had changed his face, and He Dongsheng was quite surprised. It was obvious that when he came here just now, Chen Cang was still holding his feet. It was only two quarters of an hour. Why did the resignation memorial come out? And Chen Cang's spirit is revealed. I am sick, but why is it still so relaxed?

Could it be that "retiring due to illness" or a good thing?

"Sir, you must not... I am still in my sixties. Even if I have to take a temporary rest and say I am sick, why should I retire?" The right assistant minister said anxiously.

Chen Cang has been in charge of the Ministry of Justice in recent years, and has not taken over the power and is willing to delegate his responsibilities, which has led to the people here earning a lot of qualifications.

He Dongsheng, the left assistant minister, was obsessed with the position of Shangshu in Chen Cang, but the right assistant minister was trained in the local area and was the most self-aware.

The right assistant minister knew in his heart that although He Dongsheng relied on being a member of Li Xiang's family, he pretended to be a tiger's power, but it was not He Dongsheng's turn to be vacant for the Minister of Justice.

He Dongsheng is not old enough and is not enough to upgrade.

Instead of having a new chief, it’s better to be Chen Cang here.

He Dongsheng was beside him, and the right assistant minister was so angry that his teeth were itchy, but he still made an agreement on his face: "Yes, even if the adults are in good health, they will be sick... Even if the official business in the yamen is more busy in the second half of the year, there will be officials and Wu. The minister is here..."

Chen Cang waved his hand and said, "The Ministry of Justice is one of the three judicial departments. It has a great relationship. It is necessary for a capable minister to hold on to the ox. How can the chief official be vain because the church is greedy for power? The church has decided, so don't persuade the two ministers again... It takes a few days to go to the cabinet and then to the imperial court. In the past few days, the official affairs of the yamen have been entrusted to the two of them...

Chen Cang let go so happily, but He Dongsheng felt uneasy while being happy.

A big man should not be powerless for a day. Chen Cang is in poor health. He will have to get sick one or two games every autumn and winter. But this time it is not about illness, but about resignation, but he will not leave any way out.

Why is this? It’s not that something big is going to happen to the Ministry of Justice, right?
