    "Yeah." Zhao Jin smiled sheepishly: "Uncle, don't worry, we will definitely unite on this matter."

    "What opportunity?" Mr. Zhao asked vaguely while happily eating the sesame sauce and the mutton tail oil.  The gelatin-rich sheep tail melted in his mouth, and the oily aroma spread layer by layer on the tip of his tongue. The happiness that rushed to his forehead made him feel as happy as running naked under the sunset.

    "What else can there be?" Zhao Hao said leisurely: "The highlight of the imperial election this time is not to recommend the officials and soldiers."

    "That's it?" Mr. Zhao asked with his eyes widened.

    "Think about it" Mr. Zhao said calmly.

    "Oh, I remembered." Mr. Zhao picked up the handkerchief and wiped the sesame paste from the corner of his mouth, slapped his forehead and said, "I heard that Mr. Chen also submitted his resignation. Isn't the highlight of the event the selection of Zuodu Yushi?!"

    Seeing the three of them rolling their eyes together, Mr. Zhao covered his mouth with his left hand and said, "No? Is it possible that he still wants to be promoted to a bachelor?"

    "Isn't this nonsense? What's more important than his mother's heavenly official, isn't he a bachelor?!" The old man wanted to slap him with chopsticks. Why did he give birth to such an idiot? What's even more disgusting is that this idiot actually wants to go to heaven.

    "Really? I've never heard of it at all." Mr. Zhao smiled coyly, quickly picked up a piece of sheep tail oil for the old man and said, "Dad, you can eat this without any hassle."

    "Let's get down to business, just eat, eat, eat!" Zhao Liben opened his mouth angrily, and Zhao Shouzheng accurately delivered the meat to his mouth.  Well, don't tell me, it just smells good.

    "Food is the most important thing for the people. Food is the most important thing in the world." Zhao Shouzheng said with a smile: "Who can be elected to the cabinet? It's just a conversation starter, and it has nothing to do with us anyway."

    "How do you know nothing will happen without you?" Zhao Liben chuckled, picked up the wine cup and took a sip.

    "Of course I know, it's important for people to know themselves." Zhao Shouzheng said matter-of-factly: "The imperial court is like this sizzling copper pot, the bachelor is like this sheep tail oil, and the great minister is like mutton and tripe. I am like this  Well, it¡¯s just a side dish at best.¡±

    As he spoke, he picked up a piece of Chinese cabbage and said, "When will Chinese cabbage become the main dish?"

    "Second uncle is biased. You are a top scholar and have been promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of Rites in ten years. How can you be considered a side dish?" Zhao Jin shook his head decisively and said:

    "Taking a step back, so what if it's cabbage? This copper pot shabu-shabu pays attention to the right character. The first thing is that the taste must be right The copper pot only accepts mutton, and can't mix beef, let alone fish and shrimp. But it's all  Is the mutton too greasy? You also need side dishes to relieve the greasiness - Chinese cabbage is the most peaceful and has a slight sweetness. Not only will it not take away from the taste of a pot of soup, but it will also provide the best flavor of the mutton.  Loyal support, so a hundred vegetables are not as good as cabbage, so it is qualified to be put into the pot early."

    "As expected of someone who has been in charge of the royal kitchen, he knows a lot." Zhao Shouzheng gave a thumbs up in admiration.

    Zhao Hao and Zhao Liben also liked it one after another, but the content of the like was completely different from that of Mr. Zhao.

    Zhao Jin compared the cabinet to a hot pot. Only mutton can be put into the pot, and only officials with Hanlin background can be included in the cabinet.  Even if you have not been an official in the Imperial Academy, you will not be able to join the cabinet even if you are a governor or a minister.  Therefore, when choosing a bachelor, the most important thing is the word 'righteous'.

    As for the Chinese cabbage, it is even more subtle. It corresponds to the role of Mr. Zhao on Xianggong Zhang.

    Zhao Liben couldn't help but smile and said: "My grandnephew is very knowledgeable about officialdom."

    ¡°Son, son, why do you think everyone uses hot pot as a metaphor, and your grandpa thinks what I said is tasteless?¡± Zhao Shouzheng asked his son in a low voice.

    "Because dad, you are still at the point of seeing mountains as mountains, but brother has reached the state of seeing mountains as mountains." Zhao Hao replied with a smile: "Although all you see are mountains, you are on the first floor, and others are at home.  It¡¯s the third floor.¡±

    "The more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes" Zhao Shouzheng laughed and said, "According to what my nephew said, is it really possible that this great bachelor will fall into the hands of dad?"

    "Not bad." Zhao Hao nodded.

    "It has to be my second uncle." Zhao Jin also nodded.

    ¡°Humph, you¡¯re just lucky.¡± Zhao Liben curled his lips and said.

    "No way? Are you serious?" Zhao Shouzheng opened his mouth wide and felt his heartbeat speed up.  He grabbed Zhao Jin's hand and said: "Old nephew, these guys are always joking with me all day long, but you are a very strict person. Tell your uncle quickly, what's going on?"

    "Second uncle, you really don't have any worries." Zhao Jin said with a bitter smile: "Since the Queen Mother and the Emperor have relented, Yuan Fu's love affair is probably going to be a scam. Now Mr. Lu Ge doesn't care anymore, and Yuan Fu leaves as soon as  , the cabinet is actually empty. If we don¡¯t quickly replace the cabinet members, will the country be able to survive?¡±

    "Well, that makes sense." Zhao Shouzheng nodded and said, "But joining the cabinet is not based on seniority."The third is safe.  Zhao Jin continued: "In other words, we still have to get more than forty votes."  "

    "More than forty votes" Zhao Shouzheng took a breath.

    "Father, don't worry, even if we don't do anything, you will still get fewer votes." Zhao Hao encouraged him:

    "My father is very popular, gets along well with various factions, and is known as a good person. After a big dispute, people will inevitably be panicked, and everyone is worried that they will be liquidated. There is someone who can bridge the relationship between all parties and let everyone  It is the wish of all parties to save everyone from panic."

    "Besides, we won't do nothing." Zhao Liben said proudly: "We have plenty of chips in our hands. It's not difficult at all to get you forty or fifty votes."

    "But the second uncle has to live up to his own expectations." Zhao Jin added: "Either way, you are the one who wants to join the cabinet, and your performance is the most critical!"
