Su Rong and Zhou Gu had spent half a day at the Ministry of Rites, and Su Rong was very satisfied, finally understanding why her father had insisted on not letting Old Minister Zhang retire — the old minister truly had the ability to arrange everything so properly, without any oversight.
On the carriage back to the Palace, she leaned against the wall of the carriage and played with Zhou Gu's hand, "Do you think it might be too much of a promotion to let Jiang Zhu take over Old Minister Zhang's position next year?"
Jiang Zhu is currently a fourth-grade official, but the Chief of Staff for the Ministry of Rites is a high third-grade.
"In just half a year, Jiang Zhu may not be ready to take over this position. It would be better to transfer Ye Guiyan from the Ye Xiang Residence to serve as the Chief of Staff," Zhou Gu said. "The eldest son of the Ye Xiang Residence would be more suitable."
