Chapter 9: The Great Cabinet Change
Chen Luoyan: "Are you really nothing with her, I heard that she is very charming, and a man can't escape her palm!" β
"And what do you think I did with her? Why don't you try it too? β
Chen Luoyan's face was flushed with shame: "Phew, you bad cousin!" β
Looking at the backs of the two daughters leaving, Luo Hui laughed, it was really exciting to tease his cousin: "If you want to know what we did, come to my room at night!" β
The two girls left as if they were fleeing, scolding their bad cousin, and unconsciously thinking about it deeply.
Chen Luoyan: "Cousin, have you noticed that your cousin has changed a lot, he wasn't like this before!" β
"Yes, it's all men who have money and power and become bad, and he became bad as soon as he was promoted, it's really bad!"
Chen Luoyan: "Cousin, since my cousin is so bad, it's better if you give him to me!" β
Wang Xin's face changed: "Don't think about it, you are also a bad woman, you know to rob my cousin with me!" β
Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Luo Hui wore the clothes of a military general and officially went to court for the first time. This is still the emperor who named him to go to the court, otherwise he would almost be on fire.
A large group of people entered from the Dongzhi Gate and entered the palace in the early court.
Emperor Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair with an expressionless face: "Ladies and gentlemen, there is something to do!" β
Li Guorui, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, stood up: "Your Majesty, the minister has a play!" β
"Li Shangshu, what can you say!"
"Li Shangshu? Isn't it usually called Li Aiqing? Li Guorui knew that something was wrong, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "The first assistant of the cabinet has been vacant for a long time, and the minister recommends that the college student Wei Dezao be the first assistant of the cabinet!" β
"Got it", Chongzhen said coldly: "The cabinet chief assistant has been selected, and it will be announced later!" β
Zhou Yanru stood up: "There are many state affairs, please make a decision as soon as possible!" β
Bang, Chongzhen threw the fold on the ground: "You wait for the princes and ministers, they don't want to serve the country, but they all want to steal high positions!" β
All the ministers looked at each other, didn't the emperor like these Confucians very much, why are you so disgusted now!
Zhou Yanru was at a loss, he was thinking about what he had done wrong and offended the emperor.
"Since you all want to know so much, who will be the head of the cabinet, I will tell you" Emperor Chongzhen raised his voice: "Shi Kefa, the squire of the military department!" β
Shi Kefa stood up: "The minister is here!" β
"With you appointed as the head of the household department, you will be given the title of young master, awarded Dr. Ronglu, and become the first assistant of the cabinet!"
As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was shocked. With Shi Kefa's qualifications, it is still too early to enter the cabinet, and it is too exaggerated to be the first assistant just after being promoted to the head of the household department. If you just enter the cabinet, you can accept it, and you can be directly promoted to the first assistant of the cabinet, which is also Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
"Your Majesty, this is a sudden illness and rushed to the doctor!" This is the thinking of the ministers.
Shi Kefa knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the ministers thank the emperor, but the ministers are afraid that they will not be caught!" β
Chongzhen: "Don't be humble Aiqing, someone recommended you to me, saying that you are loyal and virtuous, when this country is in danger, it is the time for Aiqing to serve the country!" β
"The minister receives the order, and he will repay the favor of my emperor with his life!"
Wei Dezao, Zhou Yanru and others in the hall were so angry that their faces turned blue. But there is nothing to be done.
"Chen Xinjia, the secretary of the military department, obeys orders!"
Chen Xinjia stood up: "Weichen is here!" β
"Chen Aiqing served the public body of the country, contributed a lot to the front line and the country, promoted you to a young master, awarded Doctor Ronglu, and entered the cabinet as a second assistant!"
Chen Xinjia was a little excited, and finally it was his turn to enter the cabinet: "The minister receives the order!" β
"Ni Yuanlu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Chen Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, the two of you will also enter the cabinet!"
Ni Yuanlu and Chen Yan stood up, with joy on their faces: "Weichen takes orders!" β
"Li Guorui, the head of the household, moved to the crown prince and the prince!"
Li Guorui's beard trembled slightly: "Weichen takes the order!" β
Wei Yude, Zhou Yanru, Li Guorui and others were so angry that their faces turned blue. Because some people enter the cabinet, naturally some people go down to the cabinet!
Especially Li Guorui, he was originally a secretary of the ministry, so not only the position of the cabinet minister could not be guaranteed, but even the position of the secretary could not be guaranteed!
Emperor Chongzhen was naturally clear about this, and he looked at the three of them: "Wei Aiqing, Zhou Aiqing, and Li Aiqing, do you have any opinions?" β
Of course they have opinions, but they don't dare to say that Emperor Chongzhen is an emperor who dares to kill ministers, and they are not dead ministers, they just want to live a prosperous and rich life. Besides, they have deep roots and big trees, and their protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over the government and the opposition, so why not be afraid of a person with shallow qualifications!
A butterfly flapped its wings and caused a storm! This major change of Ming officials is just the beginning!
Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
In a certain elegant seat in the building, the three old men Wei Yude, Zhou Yanru, and Li Guorui drank and listened to music.
Zhou Yanru drank a glass of wine very depressed: "What's wrong with the emperor, why did you suddenly get us down!"
Li Guorui was even more resentful: "Lord Zhou, didn't you hear the emperor say, someone recommended Shi Kefa to him, but by the way, he pulled us down!" β
"It's really hateful, who is slandering the emperor like this!" Zhou Yanru put the wine glass on the table.
Wei Deyu: "Don't worry, two adults, things will always be figured out!" β
Zhou Yanru was unhappy: "I said Lao Wei, we recommended you to be the first assistant, but now you want to be like a nobody!" It's really that the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry! β
"Hey, what is Lord Zhou, don't you know who I am Wei, it's useless to be angry about this matter, you must find out the result!"
Li Guorui: "Yes, the enemy hiding in the shadows is the most terrifying!" β
Wei Deyu: "Listen, this song is wrong!" β
Li Guorui nodded: "Hey, isn't Dong Xiaowan here, let her play!" β
Zhou Yanru: "It's all this time, you still have the heart to listen to the music!" β
"The more times like this, the more you have to calm down!" Wei Deyu: "Come on, let Dong Xiaowan come!" β
The old bustard ran over: "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm really sorry, Xiao Wan has been sick in the past few days!" β
"What a disappointment!"
Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
When Luo Hui returned home, his cousins were gone, and he still missed him a little. He suddenly thought of something, took out a sachet from his arms, sniffed it in front of his nose, and decided to go to Huamanlou to find Xiaowan.
In order not to cause trouble, Luo Hui disguised himself and went to Huamanlou.
Seeing him coming, the old bustard frowned: "Young Master Luo, Xiao Wan is sick, and it is not suitable to meet guests!" β
Luo Hui was anxious when he heard this: "Where is she, take me to see her!" β
The old bustard shook his round fan: "Let me tell you the truth, Xiaowan has just debuted for half a year, and the money hasn't earned enough, so you better wait a few years before you come!" β
Luo Hui was furious and slapped the old bustard in the face: "What do you say, you say it again!" β
The old bustard was beaten, covering his face and splashing: "Although you are the son of the commander, our boss is not easy to mess with, you go to the capital to inquire, who dares to spread wild in our Huamanlou!" β
The quarrel between the two quickly attracted everyone's attention, and everyone talked about it.
Luo Hui couldn't care so much: "You listen to me, if I can't see Xiao Wan today, I will ask the brothers to tear down this flowery building, I don't care how big your backstage is!" β
