Chapter 134

Shen Shi walked Wanli, in fact, it was not too much of a headache. But as soon as he left, it directly triggered the butterfly effect: Xu Guo also handed in his resignation and picked a son. The reason is very simple, even Shen Shixing was forced away, wouldn't this mess fall on him? This can't be done, whoever wants to do it will do it, anyway, the old man won't do it!

Wang Xijue has been accompanying his sick wife in his hometown, Xu Guo is no longer doing it, and the cabinet is naturally left with Wang Jiaping's stunned son. The emperor doesn't like him very much, and he knows it himself, but it's still the old saying: I am an official for the Ming Dynasty, not an official for the emperor, whether the emperor likes it or not is his business, and whether he works or not is my business. But there are so many things in the cabinet, how can Wang Jiaping come over alone?

Only then did Wang Jiaping realize the shrewdness of that old guy in Xu Guo. Such a big mess, even if the minister becomes a god, he can't handle it! This job is really impossible to do, and he also submitted his resignation to the emperor! Now Wanli really has a headache, who do I expect to go after you are all gone? There must be someone in charge of so many things in the cabinet? At this time, he resolutely refused to approve, and promoted Wang Jiaping to the first assistant of the cabinet, so that he could still carry the black pot for himself and be a shield.

But he alone in the cabinet is not enough at all! Promoted to the first assistant, the level is high, but the burden on this shoulder is also heavy, and you still have to get a few people to add it! At this time, Wanli finally realized the benefits of Shen Shixing, and he specifically mentioned two people in his resignation, saying that they could take on important responsibilities, and the cabinet could still rest assured that the emperor would hand it over to them!

One of these two people is Zhao Zhigao, the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials, and the other is Zhang Wei, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites.

Shen Shixing's vision is indeed very comparable, and these two people can take charge of the overall situation on their own. Zhao Zhigao is also a bull temper, and he is a person in the mind, and his attainments are very profound. He was a jinshi in the Longqing period, and later entered the Hanlin Academy as an editor. In the early years of Wanli, he was finally promoted to a waiter, but because he did not listen to the words of Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the dynasty, he was assigned to Guangdong as a deputy envoy. To say that this benevolent brother is really good, everyone is the only one who looks forward to Zhang Juzheng, but he is the only one who wants to work against Zhang Juzheng. This hair was distributed to Guangdong, and everyone thought that his life was over.

What is Guangdong? That's the Wild Land of the South! If you are assigned there as a deputy envoy, you will not be able to come back in this life. But after Zhang Juzheng died, some people still remembered the glorious deeds of him and Zhang Juzheng, so they promoted him to the same knowledge of Jiezhou, and it didn't take long for him to be transferred to Nanjing Taifu Temple to be a temple leader. Although he is a Qingshui Yamen, he did not get depressed because of this, but discussed and studied with some people from time to time. His every move was seen by people with a heart, so his position slowly rose, successively serving as the supervisor of the country, sacrificing wine; The right attendant of the Nanjing Ministry of Officials, etc., was ordered to enter Beijing as the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites within two years. And during his tenure, he was deeply appreciated by Shen Shixing.

A talent who can openly argue with Zhang Juzheng is the real talent, Ming Ming and the opposition said. Therefore, he can be valued by Shen Shixing and directly promoted to the cabinet as a scholar of Dongge University.

As for Zhang Wei, his experience was also extremely bumpy. But like Zhao Zhigao, he also had trouble with Lao Zhang in the Zhang Juzheng era. So he was also promoted to the cabinet, and this man has always valued only interpersonal relationships, not political futures. My favorite thing to do is to go out drinking and eating with people. He and Zhao Zhigao are not only two kinds of people in personality, but also have different interests and hobbies. pinched these two people together, Shen Shixing still took a lot of painstaking efforts: only if two people can't urinate in a pot, the cabinet can ensure relative objectivity and fairness, and will not be led by the nose of hundreds of officials.

The leadership of the cabinet has been decided, and it stands to reason that Shen Shixing has left, and the officials should not make any more trouble. But this time it's the opposite, everyone didn't fire at Shen Shixing in the first place, and the purpose this time is to force the emperor to make a prince! Otherwise, we will not give up!

Wanli originally counted on Wang Jiaping to block the bullet for himself, but Wang Jiaping not only did not block it, but turned the water.

In the Ministry of Rites, Li Xianke was the cannon fodder at the forefront this time. He asked the emperor to approve the emperor's eldest son to go out of the cabinet as soon as possible to read, and did not mention the matter of establishing the prince, although this piece of writing is quite skillful and level, but Wanli is still very unhappy in his heart, doesn't it still mean that? So you are not polite at all, and directly let this cannon fodder be demoted and reappointed, and for the first time, the word "this guy" was used in the holy decree.

In the extremely serious holy decree, the use of "this guy", two words commonly used on the street, is very, very rare, and very, very disrespectful. This aroused the disgust of the minister, you are the emperor of a country! How can such words be used in the Divine Decree? Even if the minister is wrong, it is understandable that the punishment is not too excessive, and how can it be so humiliating?

The holy decree was in Wang Jiaping's hands, and he was withdrawn by this guy.

The emperor issued a holy decree, if the cabinet chief assistant feels that there is a problem, he can return it and refuse to execute it, which is called sealing and returning, which is also one of the rights of the cabinet chief assistant.

Wang Jiaping not only returned the holy decree, but also said to the emperor in a righteous and solemn manner: This matter is not wrong, Li Xianke is not wrong, the emperor is very wrong! He only said that he read it, and for such a reasonable, legal, and incomparably correct opinion, it would be fine if the emperor did not agree, but he should not be punished and belittled, let alone humiliated him so much! Therefore, you can't do this holy decree!

This is really the opposite, Wang Jiaping is the first assistant who has just been promoted by Wanli, and he has not been in office for two days, not only did he not act as a shield for the emperor, but he turned the water! This is really raising a white-eyed wolf, Wanli vomited several liters of blood again, and ordered him to go home to recuperate, and he had nothing to do to care for his old age.

So the happy life of Wanli was opened.

He was indeed out of wrath. What is the purpose of raising a bunch of cabinet ministers? In addition to dealing with the country's large and small government affairs, I also have to think about it for my sake and carry the black pot for me! If you don't do it, it's just that, and you're still so anti-water, you don't take me seriously at all! And these damn ministers! Do you have to push me into a corner to see no way out? Okay, since I'm going to play, I won't have any retreat this time, let's have a decisive battle!

Within a few days, Zhong Yuzheng of the Ministry of Rites was firmly on Li Xianke's side, and the central idea of his performance was only one: Li Xianke's performance, and the minister was very approving of it! Since he is going to be removed from his post, please remove me from the emperor!

With a stroke of his pen, Wanli fulfilled his wish.

Immediately afterwards, Shu Hongxu also followed in the matter of the Ministry of Rites, saying that the official could be punished, but the crown prince had to do it when he went out of the cabinet to read it. There is no doubt that he was also given by Wanli and sent to Nanjing to be an insignificant petty official.

The two rites were treated extremely unfairly in the incident, and everyone was not frightened by these, but was even more inspired by the boundless fighting spirit, saying that they would resolutely fight the wrong line to the end! Within a few days, Meng Yanghao was also angry in the matter of the household department, not only saying that he would unconditionally Li Xianke and Shu Hongxu, but also played a more level, summed up Wanli's five major mistakes, and then left no room for anything: "Your Majesty the Emperor, you sit back and watch the eldest son of the emperor drop out of school, which insults the ancestors of the sect!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone shouted loudly, and 1xm Wanli scolded loudly!

It's a complete reversal! What do I do, I need you to teach a minor official of the seventh grade?! They all spoke to me in such a tone! Pull out the noon door! One hundred rods! Hit me hard, and the storm broke out completely!

After all, Meng Yanghao is a speech official, and it is his main job to treat the emperor, no matter what tone he uses, the emperor can't punish him too harshly. But Wanli removed him from his post, and pulled him out of the noon gate and beat him with a hundred rods, and after coming down, Meng Yanghao's lower body was completely paralyzed. This touched the bottom line of the officials and ministers.

In the next few days, Zhao Zhigao, a scholar of Dongge University, was reprimanded; Chen Shangxiang, who was given to the right of the ministry, was cut to the people; Yu Shi Zou Deyong, Hu Ke Du to Ding Maoxun in the matter, Zhang Dong in the Military Department, Wu Zhijia in the Criminal Department, Yang Qixiu in the Engineering Department, Li Kezuo to Ye Chuchun in the matter, joint protest, Wanli is not polite at all, all six people are assigned to Guangdong!

Wanli finally broke a record, and within a few days, together with Li Xianke, he dismissed a total of twelve ministers from his positions. When the matter came to this point, the ministers seemed to be crazy, and they went forward one after another, degrading one after another; Wanli also seems to be crazy, come one to depreciate the other! How many people he degraded, he gradually couldn't remember. In the eyes of the ministers, this movement has risen to an extremely high height: you can lose your officials, but you can't be ashamed! In Wanli's opinion, this turmoil will finally be quelled, even if all the people in the court are demoted, it is a big deal that I will appoint and dismiss a group of people to add it!

Rite members Dong Sicheng, Yushi Jia Mingru, Yushi Chen Yumo are sparse again, and Li Xianke is sparse. Wanli didn't hesitate to give me a fuck!

Things gradually got out of control, and more and more high-ranking officials expressed their determination to Li Xianke and others, and even the Shang of the Sixth Ministry began to join the struggle. Wanli is really about to become a loner, and in fact, he is indeed extremely tired after calming down now. There are so many officials in the Ming Dynasty, when will I be demoted? If I really get all the officials of the Ming Dynasty down, who will help me do things? Don't you people know how to stop and stop? I don't know if the big picture is the most important?! He really didn't understand, I had already degraded and beaten so many people, why did I go crazy and make up? Could it be that I, the officials of the two capitals and twenty-one provinces of the Ming Dynasty, don't I know what the Ming Dynasty is?
