In the Privy Council office, Yang Jun, who was annoyed and angry by Lin Jue's ridicule, became ferocious, he was originally a general who led the army to fight, and his methods were extremely ruthless, and his subordinates were like numbness. Whoever can give an extermination order, what is it to kill someone. was so excited by Lin Jue, his blood surged, and when he took the sword on the wall and slashed at Lin Jue.

How could Lin Jue be slashed by him, retreat and dodge, and shouted: "Yang Jun, you dare to commit murder in public against the imperial court officials and try to kill them?" You don't want to be a privy envoy anymore. Murder pays for life, and if you kill me, you will also die. I'm not an idler, an ordinary person. I am the third envoy who has just been appointed by the imperial court. ”

Yang Jun woke up suddenly, gritted his teeth with his sword and looked at Lin Jue, panting. If he wants to kill Lin Jue, he can definitely do it, although he is old, it is still more than enough to kill Lin Jue. But how can you explain after killing him? Lin Jue is the third envoy of the imperial court, and he killed the imperial court members without permission, and what awaits him will also be an extremely serious punishment. Can you afford to destroy yourself for this Lin Jue? After so many years of hard work, was it ruined because of impulse? It's impossible.

"Lin Jue, spare your dog's life today. The old man warns you that if you don't know the times, you will die without a place to bury. The old man is bitter and benevolent to you. If you kill yourself, the old man will not kill you today, and someone else will do it for you. ”

Lin Jue laughed and said, "Yang Shumi, let's worry about yourself." Once King Jin becomes the crown prince, what should you do? I'm worried about you. Think about it, if you want to ask the King of Jin for sin, I can introduce it. Come and beg me when you think it through. Leave. ”

Lin Jue turned around and walked away quickly. Yang Jun stood with his sword in his hand, his face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth with hatred.

……

The situation between the DPRK and China has undergone changes that many people have not expected after the seventh year of the Great Zhou Qingfeng. Originally, after Fang Dunru and Yan Zhengsu committed suicide, many people thought that the situation in the DPRK and China had been completely controlled by Lu Zhongtian and others. The privy envoy Yang Jun chose to support Guo Xu with Lu Zhongtian, and the person recommended by the two military and political officials together, how could he not become the crown prince.

However, the situation developed beyond expectations. After the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, everyone understood one thing, that is, the emperor seemed to be dissatisfied with Guo Xu and reprimanded Guo Xu in public, which was unimaginable before. What's more, when Lu Zhongtian has no opponents.

And then the emperor's act of appointing Lin Jue as the third envoy against public opinion made many people understand the purpose behind this. It was this situation of dominance that made the emperor make this move, and the appointment of Lin Jue, who had been in contradiction with Lu Zhongtian, Yang Jun and others, as the third envoy was more like telling everyone that the emperor was not satisfied with the current situation in the imperial court, and the emperor hoped to break this situation.

In the imperial court, as long as there is a little wind and grass, it can cause an uproar. After the official appointment of Lin Jue as the third envoy on the 16th day of the first lunar month, the officials of the DPRK and China quickly took action. Those officials who had been talking in front of Lu Zhongtian and others not long ago also immediately smelled the smell. The front of the Lin Mansion, which was originally deserted, was suddenly crowded. The officials who visited Lin Jue waited for several days. And this situation was also staged in front of Lu Zhongtian and Yang Jun's mansions not long ago.

Of course, the performance of quite a few smart officials is not obvious. They just didn't go to Lu Zhongtian and the others' mansions to get acquainted, but chose to wait and see. The situation was uncertain, and they didn't want to make a decision too soon. But he also didn't want to continue to be Lu Zhongtian and Yang Jun's guests. When Lu Zhongtian entertained guests on the twenty-first day of the first month, the nineteen tables originally prepared were ten in a row

The table wasn't full. The rest either don't come at all, or call themselves sick or find various reasons to refuse. This is evident from this.

Lu Zhongtian was furious, but he could only sulk. The atmosphere in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty has always been like this, and it is no wonder that others are like this. The emperor's attitude is a barometer, even if he Lu Zhongtian is powerful, he can't withstand the majesty of the emperor. The emperor's attitude determines all this. Lu Zhongtian had to grit his teeth and endure it, comforting himself with the words of seeing people's hearts for a long time and Lu Yao's horsepower. Those who directly rejected themselves were all on Lu Zhongtian's blacklist. There is a price to be paid for the actions of the wallgrass.

Lin Jue's attitude towards these large number of officials who suddenly showed favor to him was not to refuse. Although the little county lord knew that when these officials came to pat his husband's ass, he told Lin Jue not to deal with these people. But Lin Jue's purpose is to unite all those who can be united, although the character of these people is worthy of contempt, but he still needs these people to give him a strong momentum. And most of these people are villains, they would rather offend the gentleman than the villain, Lin Jue doesn't want to face the slander and framing behind him all day long, and be made money by everyone behind their backs. Of course, it is impossible to reuse, and their requirements are only delayed in the name of haha, and inconsequential things can give them some sweetness, and it is absolutely impossible to take advantage of themselves.

Lin Jue wants to reuse another group of people. Those were some of the people who were left behind after the abolition of the Ordinance Division. The opportunists in the Ordinance Department had already been automatically exposed in the impeachment of Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru. Sadly, such persons account for more than half of the officials under the Regulation Division. But that also automatically screened half of Lin Jue's manpower. The rest of the people may not be so good, they may not have any skills, but one thing is certain, they are not the ones who fell into the trap. When Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru were in danger, although they did not have a person to make trouble for their confidants and find a way to rescue them, but after experiencing Wu Chunlai's threats and temptations, they were able to maintain themselves and did not slander the two adults, so they definitely passed the test in terms of character.

After the establishment of the Ordinance Division, the Yamen of the Third Division was almost reduced to an empty shell. Except for some of the officials who moved to work in the Ordinance Division, the rest was almost just a routine operation. After Lin Jue took office, together with Yang Xiu and Du Wei, he immediately began a comprehensive resumption of operations, and arrested the abandoned affairs one by one. Du Wei gradually spent several days studying the old system of the Sansi Yamen to improve it and change the situation of people floating in the past. It's what he's good at. After drastic changes and adjustments to the entry and exit of personnel, the entire Sansi Yamen became vigorous in a short period of time. Get up.

At the meeting at the beginning of his tenure, Lin Jue told everyone that according to the system of the Great Zhou, the two governments and three divisions were equal level yamen. The three divisions should take back their responsibilities and the rights they should enjoy, and they cannot be controlled by others, nor do they need to be controlled by others. The money, grain, and taxation matters in charge of the three divisions and yamen are only responsible to the emperor, and there is no need to be responsible for any yamen, let alone their control and command. These remarks are aimed at the situation that the three divisions have lost their powers and have been reduced to being controlled by the government affairs hall and cannot be self-explanatory. Many people thought that Lin Jue was just talking, but soon they understood that Lin Jue was serious.

After successively rejecting several orders for the allocation of money and food from the political affairs hall and reprimanding the officials who came to inquire, people finally understood that Lin Jue was not just talking, but sounded the clarion call for the revitalization of the three divisions of the yamen, and officially began to counterattack the other yamen who had penetrated into the middle of the three divisions of the yamen and the east and west.

Faced with this situation, on the 26th of the first month

At the court meeting, Lu Zhongtian, Wu Chunlai and others formally questioned and asked the emperor to stop Lin Jue's behavior. When being questioned by Guo Chong, Lin Jue took out the text of the law on the establishment of the system of the two governments and three yamen after the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, read out the terms of reference of the three divisions and yamen one by one, and compared them with his recent behavior of the three divisions and yamen, in front of hundreds of officials. In the end, Lin Jue made a long response.

"Your Majesty, colleagues. The system of two governments and three divisions of the Great Zhou Dynasty was established by the emperor and has been in operation for more than 100 years. This is already the basic system of the operation of the court of my Great Zhou. According to the provisions of this system, the two governments and three departments perform their own duties. The military, government and financial powers are separated, and they belong to the Privy Council, the Political Affairs Hall, and the Three Divisions and Yamen. The power and responsibility of our three divisions and yamen is to be in charge of the use of the Great Zhou's fiscal revenue and expenditure, and to rationally plan the collection and use of taxes. This was the power and responsibility of the Yamen of our three divisions at the beginning of its establishment. However, since the Splendid Period, the three divisions have been reduced to requiring the approval of the government hall to decide the financial revenue and expenditure, which is not the original intention of the emperor to set the system of two governments and three divisions. If the Sansi Yamen needs the nod of the political affairs hall to act, the imperial court can carry out restructuring and include the three divisions of the yamen under the jurisdiction of the political affairs hall, in that case, it is logical for the political affairs hall to extend its hand to govern the three divisions of the yamen. ”

"However, this is not the case now, the imperial court has not carried out reform, and the two governments and three divisions are still the central yamen in charge of military, political and financial power in my big Wednesday. Under such circumstances, Prime Minister Lu and Vice Minister Wu, you should understand that it is not that the three divisions and yamen do not listen to your orders, but that you have no right to issue orders under the jurisdiction of the three divisions and yamen, and this relationship must be clear. It is true that the Sansi Yamen rejected some unreasonable demands of the Political Affairs Hall today, but that was the inherent authority of the Sansi Yamen, and it was not a deliberate attempt to make things difficult. The three divisions and yamen have the right to make decisions on unreasonable financial and taxation matters within the scope of their own powers. In addition to the need for the emperor's approval, there is no need to be interfered with by any yamen. If Vice Minister Lu Xiang and Wu feel that you are in charge of the three divisions and yamen, they should ask the imperial court to carry out reforms, otherwise we will not make any mistakes and will not accept any groundless accusations. If you can't understand this, you might as well put yourself in your shoes. If I run to the government hall and tell me that the government must do what I want, will you think I'm crazy? And what you are doing is what I speak of. I don't know if I explained this, did Lu Xiang, Vice Minister Wu and all of you understand it? ”

Lin Jue's response was logical and impeccable. When the system of two governments and three divisions was established, the three major yamen were originally in an equal position. At a certain time, even the powers of the three divisions exceeded those of the two governments. The three envoys of the head of the three divisions of the yamen have a nickname called 'Ji Xiang', and it can be understood from this title that once upon a time, the position of the three ministers was on an equal footing with the prime minister. It was only later that the three divisions and yamen gradually declined, and the inability of several three envoys to reduce it to being interfered in by the political affairs hall, and it seems that it has been customized, but from the original intention of establishing the system of two governments and three departments, this is obviously contrary to the original intention. Regardless of whether this system is the most perfect and reasonable system, since this is a custom of the Great Zhou, it is not child's play. Lin Jue is using this as a foundation, which is irrefutable.

The officials in the palace all understood Lin Jue's words. Not only did I understand what Lin Jue said, but I also understood what Lin Jue said. This Lin Jue is going to take back all the power of the Sansi Yamen that was once encroached upon, and no longer allow others to point fingers at the Sansi Yamen. This also indicates that the three yamen headed by Lin Jue will no longer succumb to the power of Lu Zhongtian. What does it mean that a new force in the court is rising today?
