"The minister understands, so I'll go back and discuss with the cabinet elders..."

After Wei Guangwei said this, he was not in a hurry to leave.

He knew in his heart that the chaos caused by the Shandong Yanzheng had not been completely resolved, that is, the emperor's words had not yet been finished.

Sure enough, after a while, Zhu Youxiao sat down and said:

"What does Elder Ge think of Wen Tiren, who is in charge of the salt administration in Denglai?"

After speaking, Zhu Youxiao was also quietly waiting for the following.

Wei Guangwei actually had a guess that this was also the reason why he broke away from the Wei party back then, with the decline of Donglin, the power of the Wei party tilted towards the court, and sooner or later he would be suspicious of the emperor.

It's not that the Emperor of the Apocalypse is too suspicious, in such a situation, if other emperors come to it, they can't help but wonder if Wei Zhongxian is too powerful.

Compared with others, the emperor's disposition is still prioritized, although the last time he took back the right of Wei Zhongxian, the celebrant to approve the seal, there is no further pressing.

In the process of implementing the new salt policy, he re-appointed Wei party officials and punished the localities, thinking that he had his own considerations in mind.

Wei Guangwei is an extremely sensitive person, otherwise he would not have sat in the position of the current cabinet leader.

As soon as I heard the emperor ask me about Wen Tiren, and then I thought of Wen Tiren's experience as an official, my mind suddenly became clear.

He didn't know anything else, but since the emperor asked so, he definitely meant to promote Wen Tiren.

Wen Tiren's experience in these years can never be called official luck, at first glance it seems like nothing, but if you think about it carefully, every step of his life was arranged by the emperor himself, and he was a little scary.

The emperor has a lot of opportunities, under what circumstances would he care about the promotion and transfer of an official?

Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting..., although these people are also from civilian officials, they were all promoted and called by an edict, why didn't they arouse the opposition of the courtiers?

First, the emperor was arbitrary and did not allow his beak to be tampered.

The second reason is that they all have one thing in common, that is, they were born as civil officials and put pen to paper.

If such a person does it, he will either be a military officer or a governor of a place, and even if he does it, he will not attract too much attention from the courtiers.

Because these official positions are all civilian officials supervising and leading military generals, building armies abroad, although they seem to be quite powerful, few people envy those who are officials in Beijing.

In such a position, it hurts to fall, and basically all of them have to spend their lives outside, and there are very few people who can be transferred back to Beijing as important ministers of the court.

For example, if there is any chaos in the jurisdiction, whether it is big or small, the imperial court will basically not punish the generals who lead the troops, but will easily deal with you, the governor.

There are also overseers, and the scope is even greater.

Take Zhu Xieyuan as an example, once the battle of Liaodong is lost, the entire Liaodong may be overturned in an instant, and it will be impossible for him to escape by then.

Also, why was Xiong Tingbi frequently attacked by courtiers?

It is because of this position of Liaodong Economic Strategy that not only has great power, but also has a great impact on the disputes between all parties.

In a word, all parties are staring at this position.

At that time, Xiong Tingbi, although he looked at a high position and was in charge of the military power of the entire Liaodi, there were countless pairs of eyes staring, and if there was a slight mistake, it would be a catastrophe.

Wen Tiren's situation is completely different from the above, this is a pure civilian official, although sometimes he will be released to do some local government affairs, but he will eventually come back.

And judging from Wen Tiren's experience, every time he goes out, he will be more powerful when he comes back.

Since the beginning of the Apocalypse, there are only two people who can be favored by the emperor as a pure civil official, except for Yang Sichang, who was also responsible for the relief of the disaster in Shandong in the second year of the Apocalypse, only Wen Tiren.

So Wei Guangwei knew in his heart that don't look at the emperor's indifferent question, it looks like gossip, but his next answer represents two directions.

This is the truth that the emperor is like a tiger, and there will be a lot of problems like this for the emperor, and you don't know when there will suddenly be one.

At this time, it may be a choice at the crossroads of life.

Whether you go straight forward, or choose the wrong one, and accidentally walk into a fork in the road, it all depends on the meaning of your words.

There was only one way for Ye Xianggao to deal with it back then, pretending to be stupid.

Every time the emperor asked, he was either confused or drowsy, which made the emperor cry and laugh, and he couldn't ask why.

In Wei Guangwei's view, this is a good way to deal with it.

But Ye Xianggao's last choice was wrong, obviously the emperor gave him the opportunity to protect himself, but he had to devote himself to the righteousness of Donglin, and ended up being punished by the nine clans.

The current emperor is obviously not the child who Ye Xianggao was the first assistant back then, if he pretends to be stupid, he will definitely end up in an extremely miserable end in less than half a year.

Let's take the plunge!

Even if you choose the wrong one, at least you can leave the house and save the life of your family.

Wei Guangwei thought for a long time and didn't reply, his heart was far from being as light and light as it seemed on his face, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as turbulent.

"What does Elder Ge think?" Zhu Youxiao seemed to be a little tired of waiting, but he didn't have an annoyed look, and looked at it with a smile.

Wei Guangwei was deliberately startled, as if he suddenly reacted, and said:

"Wen Tiren Tianqi in the second year of the main force of Shandong disaster relief, has seen his talent, and now he is going to Denglai to promote the new salt method, which is also a success, and he can see his talent."

Zhu Youxiao looked at him and asked:

"What does Elder Ge mean, do you think this Wen Tiren is a usable material?"

Wei Guangwei's heart sank and said:

"There is still a lack of a cabinet minister in the cabinet..., but the salt administration of Denglaiqing Sanfu has just been implemented, and the minister of the Qin mission is still needed to take care of local affairs..."

After speaking, Wei Guangwei peeped at Shangyan and secretly wiped his sweat.

"Wen Tiren has entered the pavilion..."Zhu Youxiao muttered, got up and walked around the warm pavilion with his hands, thought for a while, and then said:

"This Wen Tiren Wanli 26 years as a Shu Jishi, after many years in Nanjing as an official, the qualifications are enough, according to the old Ge Lao, this person Shandong disaster relief, Shandong salt law, can not be bad."

Wei Guangwei raised his head.

"Your Majesty...?"

Zhu Youxiao suddenly laughed and said:

"However, I also feel that the new salt law has just been implemented, and I need a capable person to take care of it in the place, and I am a little anxious to call him back directly."

"In this way, after the matter of the new salt law has subsided, I will ask Wen Tiren to come back to hold the court push, I already have a plan in my heart, and I don't need to mention it again."

As for the other things about the new salt law mentioned in this remark, it is natural to slowly sift through the Shandong officialdom.

This is not only the last test before Wen Tiren enters the cabinet, but also Zhu Youxiao's test of the courtiers' opinions, if there is not too much opposition, at the end of this year or the fifth year of the Apocalypse, Wen Tiren will enter the cabinet, it will be a foregone conclusion.

For some reason, although Wei Guangwei didn't deal with Wen Tiren, he was still relieved when he heard the words, and said:

"Your Majesty, the ministers will be in charge of the affairs of the court."

Zhu Youxiao nodded and continued:

"Do you have anything else to tell me, take advantage of my good mood today, let's deal with it together."
