The implementation of the cabinet's five-year work plan is the burden that Zhu Yunwen is preparing to put on the cabinet.

"Not only these ten central yamen, but also the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple must have an indicator, what to do within five years, and if it can't be done, its chief official will be dismissed. In the same way, the four of you cabinet ministers also have their own responsibilities, and whoever is in charge of the stall will be dismissed if they do not do well.

If more than half of the ministries and departments do not meet the planned targets, the cabinet will be dissolved! ”

Under Zhu Yunwen's gaze, the four of them felt that sweat began to ooze from their faces and backs.

Looking at this posture, the emperor is planning to play for real.

"It's the end of September, and there are still three months to go before the end of the year, and within three months, all the newly added bureaucrats will be built, and the officials and officials will be selected, and at the same time, your cabinet will have three months to think about how to draw up this work plan."

Zhu Yunwen glanced at them indifferently, and said in an unquestionable tone: "If you plan too simply, then I will make a plan for you." ”

The four of them felt as heavy as pressing a big stone in their hearts, and hurriedly stood up: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the ministers will live up to their kindness." ”

After speaking, the four of them saw that Zhu Yunwen had nothing else to explain, so they all bowed down and retired.

Time is running out, and they can now feel what it means to burn their butts.

Especially Yang Shiqi, he hasn't had enough of the taste of the first assistant of the cabinet, if he is dismissed and returns to his hometown, then where will he have the face to return to Jiangxi, you must know that this initiative and dismissal are completely two different concepts.

Not long after the few people left, a eunuch ran in and delivered an urgent letter of 800 miles from the southwest.

Ma Dajun's letter of dissuasion was finally sent to the Nanjing Imperial Palace.

"True and false, false and true."

Zhu Yunwen burned the letter and sneered: "What a loyal and filial son, I am really reluctant to kill him." ”

The military in the southwest is the top priority of the Ming Dynasty at the moment, and whether Zhu Yunwen can succeed in implementing the five-year plan or not, the southwest side is also an important link.

After all, Nan Tianzhu has countless free labor slaves.

The accumulation of primitive capital is full of blood, and in the same way, if a country wants to become strong quickly, large-scale infrastructure is indispensable, and in ancient times, large-scale infrastructure often needed countless flesh and blood to fill.

In addition to this consideration, the military value of Nantianzhu is also huge.

Fighting in the northwest direction from the south to Tianzhu can directly smash the threat of the Yellow Dragon Samarkand, contain all the attention of the Timurid Khanate, and ensure the stable start of the three capital protectorates of the Ming Dynasty and the implementation of ethnic policies.

National affairs are important, this horse army, Zhu Yunwen is really reluctant to kill him for a while.

"Yun Xi has also stayed in the martial arts hall for more than a year, let him pack up and go on a trip to learn some military affairs on the southwest front."

After explaining, Zhu Yunwen once again buried himself in the case.

He himself didn't believe that the cabinet could formulate any stressful work plans, so he had to personally go out to add burdens to these first- and second-class top officials.

"The stricter the management of the center, the stricter the management of the locality."

Looking at the "Daming Cabinet Accountability Regulations" written by himself, Zhu Yunwen happily stroked his palms and laughed, showing off with double happiness.

"The central departments and departments of the government to manage all parts of my Ming Dynasty, if the local area does not progress, they will never be able to complete the plan indicators, in order to meet the standard, they must go all out to supervise the local political envoy Yamen, and then the local political envoy Yamen will also sink the pressure to the county level, layer by layer pressure, then the development of my Ming Dynasty will be much faster."

Policies are implemented from the top down, but the work is done from the bottom up.

Once the grassroots yamen are lazy, then no matter how good the central policy is, it will be in vain.

Therefore, it is necessary to exert pressure and accountability at all levels!

"If the work of these ministries and offices in the center is not in place, I will find trouble with the cabinet. In the same way, if the provinces make a mess, the cabinet will find them trouble. ”

Summoning a little eunuch, Zhu Yunwen handed him the notebook: "Go, send it to Yang Shiqi." ”

And when Yang Shiqi received this edict in the Wenhua Palace, he shouted to the other three with a bitter face and passed it on one by one.

"In the days to come, I'm afraid we won't even have time to catch our breath."

The accountability rules are as strict as a mountain weighing on their shoulders.

"Don't think so much about it now, put up the shelves first, and then think about how this five-year plan will be decided."

Yu Xin said: "I just told Xia Yuanji about splitting the household department, and he danced happily, and I don't know if he can still be happy after the five-year plan is made." ”

When will the official have to formulate plan indicators, even businessmen dare not say that they make money every year, and it is normal for there to be a natural and man-made disaster.

"None of those things matter, what matters is how to elect a competent new officer."

Yang Shiqi called Zhu Gaochi, the secretary of the ministry, and Shi Jingqing, the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and informed the two of them about the matter.

"The new yamen includes the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of State-owned Resources, the General Administration of Taxation and the Ministry of Education.

The train runs fast because of the headband.

Choosing a good chief official can make their cabinet worry-free, otherwise it will be a mess, and at the end of the five-year period, they will really not even cry without tears.

New departments, new officials, new political dividends.

Zhu Gaochi and Jing Qing both understood that Yang Shiqi seemed to be thinking about these positions.

After thinking for a moment, Zhu Gaochi spoke first.

"If the Ministry of Commerce is concerned, how about Qian Xu, who is currently the Huaiyan Transit Envoy, as the Shangshu?"

"No, Qian Xu is just a local fourth-grade transferee, and he has no experience in managing the overall situation in the center, so he can directly promote the second-grade."

Without even thinking about it, Yang Shiqi categorically refused: "How about the left servant of the household department?" ”

Zhu Gaochi frowned and raised objections: "Pavilion Elder Mo doesn't know, this Qi has a lazy personality, and he has been in a state of not seeking merit but seeking no fault in the household department in the past few years. ”

Not only did Zhu Gaochi disagree, but Yu Xin and Yan Zhenzhi also clearly expressed their opposition.

At the head of the five-year plan, of course, we must choose those who are capable, and whoever has the ability will be on the list, otherwise they will be affected by the cabinet ministers.

"Why don't you be, the right waiter Guo Zi?"

Yu Xin, who has been working in the household department, proposed a candidate, and as soon as he said this, even Yang Shiqi and Zhu Gaochi subconsciously looked at him.

Guo Zike is a capable person, Hongwu eighteen years of Jinshi, in just ten years all the way to the top, from the Ministry of Beiping to the Beiping Zuobu political envoy, he has been in Beiping for a long time, so he and Zhu Di, the king of Yan in Beiping, have a deep personal relationship.

In the twenty-ninth year of Hongwu, Guo Zi was transferred back to Beijing, and then he was depressed and could not be reused, and the dignified political envoy of Beiping Zuobu could only stay in the position of the right attendant of the household department for seven or eight years.

No one is willing to promote this official who is close to King Yan, and naturally no one is willing to mention such a person in front of Zhu Yunwen, the emperor.

Yu Xin's meritocracy was also overwhelmed by this five-year plan.

"Since you all have no opinions, let's draw up Guo Zi."

Yang Shiqi saw that these people had no opinion, and he didn't want to veto it with a domineering vote, so he had to nod.

"Next, who will be selected by the secretary of the tax department?"

Yang Shiqi came up with his own opinion: "How is Li Zirong, who is currently in charge of the tax department?" ”

The chief officer in charge of the tax department served as the secretary of the tax department, and it was also a professional counterpart, but several people still sneered in their hearts.

Fang Cai also rejected Zhu Gaochi's nomination, saying that the fourth grade cannot be directly promoted to the second grade, and he has no experience in controlling the overall situation, and now he really proposes to let Li Zirong take the lead?

Who doesn't know that this Li Zirong is your fellow Jiangxi countryman?

"If the Ministry of State-owned Resources is concerned, the Ministry of Industry will be able to leave Lang Lang Lu."

It is said that whoever has the ability is on whom, but if you want to have the ability, you still have to pick your own people first.

Yu Xin recommended an official from the Zhejiang Party to fight Yang Shiqi-for-tat.

Lu Yuanzhi was born in Hongwu's twenty-first year of Tanhua, and both his knowledge and ability and his current quality were originally higher than that Li Zirong.

"Lu Yuanzhi?"

Yang Shiqi snorted coldly: "This person has a reason with that party's filial piety, although he didn't make a lot of nonsense in the newspaper of the year, but after all, he is a person who is involved in sin, Your Majesty is gracious, but how can his virtue be worthy of the position of Shangshu?" ”

"What does it mean to be involved in sin?"

Yu Xin glared directly, and said a word: "Fang Xiaoru's case has been closed." If the emperor is watching the fire, all the raccoon dogs of the party of Fang Xiaoru are also all punished, since this Lu Yuan can still live above the court, it is enough to show his innocence, is it possible that Yang Ge Lao thinks that the emperor has someone who knows no one? ”

"Yu Ge Lao!"

Yang Shiqi's eyes suddenly turned cold: "We are now selecting materials, for Your Majesty's five-year plan, and at the moment of state affairs, don't buckle your hat to others at every turn." ”

Yu Xin was resolutely not afraid of Yang Shiqi's intimidation, and glared back directly: "Since Yang Ge Lao still knows that His Majesty's five-year plan cannot be wasted, then state affairs should be the priority, Lu Yuanzhi is in the Ministry of Industry, and he is in charge of the new Ministry of State-owned Resources. ”

The two looked at each other for a while, but Yang Shiqi took a step back first, but still didn't forget to dig a pit for Yu Xin: "Since there is a sponsorship from Yu Ge's elders, so be it." ”

The person is sponsored by you Yu Xin, and if there is a problem in the future, you see that if I don't find you trouble, it will be over.

Three people have been finalized one after another, and the only thing left at the moment is the post of secretary of the Ministry of Education.

Education is related to the foundation of the country, and no one wants to give up this position.

"How is Huang Zicheng, the left waiter of the ministry?"

When Zhu Gaochi opened his mouth, he first pushed Zhu Yunwen's former ministers to come out to test the waters.

"Although Zicheng is full of poetry and books, his talent is only suitable for reading, not for cultivating talents."

The first objection was Xie Jin, who entered the Hanlin Academy that year, and did not deal with Huang Zicheng, and there was a disagreement between the two.

"I think Jin Youzi, who is now a scholar and a lecturer in Hanlin, is good."

"Jin Youzi is a jinshi in the second year of Jianwen, where is he worthy of such a quick promotion."

As soon as they heard that Xie Jin wanted to promote the Jiangxi Party, Yu Xin and Yan Zhenzhi both spoke up against it.

"I have a choice."

Jingqing, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, has always been very low-key, and he didn't speak up for the first few candidates, but at this time he made a suggestion: "How about Huang Guan, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites?" ”

In history, the first six champions!

Since you want to engage in education, of course, you should give priority to Xueba.

Besides, Huang Guan came out of the Hanlin system of Nanzhili, and he did not belong to the Yang Party or the Zhejiang Party.

Yang Shiqi and Yu Xin's eyes staggered again.

"At the moment, the five-year plan is more important."

Although the two didn't say it, they both understood what the other meant.

"Yes, let's do it."

Yang Shiqi spread out the notebook and wrote it with a pen.

"The Ministry of Commerce Shangshu drafted Guo Zi, the Ministry of State-owned Resources Shangshu Lu Yuanzhi, the Ministry of Taxation Shangshu Li Zirong, and the Ministry of Education Shangshu Huang Guan."

Of these four candidates, one is an old friend of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, one is from the Yang Party, one is from the Zhejiang Party, and the other is from the Nanzhili Hanlin Party.

What is the joy of all, this is the joy of all.

A five-year plan has forced several members of the cabinet to pay more attention to their ability in the selection of materials, but they are still resolutely unwilling to regress where they should not regress.

There are four second-grade halls, everyone must each occupy one, and no one wants to be dominant.

"Hmph."

The most important Ministry of Education failed to get his hands on it, Yang Shiqi was naturally in a bad mood, his idea was to win at least two, but the wood was already in the boat, and he had to admit it.

"Since everyone has no opinion, then the Ministry of Officials and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will sign it, and the old man will take it to face the saint."

Zhu Gaochi and Jing Qing glanced at each other and laughed, it was not easy to make Yang Shiqi deflated this time.

Picking up the pen, he signed his name on the notebook.
