Six hundred and sixty-six wooing
Zhu Yijun had been disgusted with Yang Junmin for a long time, so this letter was handed over to Shen Yijun untouched by Zhu Yijun.
Shen always knew.
So he asked at the cabinet meeting without pain: "Is Yang Butang planning to enter the cabinet?" Or are you planning to return home? ”
Yang Junmin was so frightened that his face turned pale at that time, and looking at the faint killing intent in Shen Yi's eyes, he stiffened from his soul to his body.
Shen Yi's smiling tiger was finally about to show his fangs.
What's more critical is that the people in the entire bigwig-level meeting were very dissatisfied with their performance of secretly writing the book, and Shi Xing fired at Yang Junmin at that time: "Yang Butang, are you doing this to express your distrust in the imperial court resolution, or to express your dissatisfaction with Shen Ge Lao?" If you are not satisfied, just say it, don't secretly play it to Your Majesty, this kind of thing will lose face. ”
"You...... You guys...... How dare you insult me like this! ”
Yang Junmin was angry and sad, and directly threw up his sleeves and quit the meeting, and did not participate in several meetings after that.
He can only express his protest in this way, but this way is not only ridiculous, but also pale and powerless, and it vividly shows Yang Junmin's helpless predicament.
The Jin system is like the sun that is about to set, and it will no longer be as grand as it used to be.
Under the joint strangulation of all forces, the Jin Shang forces have been completely in decline within the imperial court, and the battle of Shanxi Datong is the final blow of God to the Jin merchants, so how can you not seize such a good opportunity?
Shen will never let go, and this time, Shen will always take advantage of this opportunity to tear Jin Shang apart and eat it.
On the issue of adding three cabinet members to the cabinet and Jingcha, Shen has always felt that these two things should be regarded as one thing.
Cai Guozhen, the secretary of the Ministry who presided over Jingcha, is obviously the object that Shen always needs to fight for, as long as Cai Guozhen cooperates, then this matter can be done beautifully, and the forces of the Jin system will be uprooted from the court in one fell swoop, and the Jin merchants will be leveled with the power of this great victory, and the various factions involved in everyone can share the spoils.
That's right, the crux of the problem at the moment is to solve the problem of sharing spoils after the incident, to put it bluntly, if the problem of sharing spoils can be solved, then whether it is the disaster relief in Datong, Shanxi, Jingcha or the struggle for power, it can be properly solved according to Shen Zheng's ideas, and Shen Zheng will become the head of the Ming Dynasty in the real sense of the word, the person in charge of the imperial authority.
And what does Cai Guozhen want?
It's simple, enter the cabinet.
Cai Guozhen is a veteran figure of the Jiangxi faction, and is one of the most capable figures of the Jiangxi faction in the post-Yan Song era.
Facts have proved that Cai Guozhen's choice was right, and after paying the price of some years, in exchange for the unsparing promotion and support of the Jiangxi faction in the post-Yan Song era, he finally entered the highest decision-making circle of the empire.
However, he has a very fatal weakness, he is not from Hanlin origin.
This is the same as Song Yingchang and Shi Xing, they belong to a type of person who can have a good business level but a bad background, and if they do the top, they can only be a scholar, and they can't be a pavilion elder, and I don't know how many non-Hanlin scholars regret for life.
Cai Guozhen is dying, and his biggest wish before Lin Zhishi is to join the cabinet, even if it is only for a short period of time, he can be regarded as a cabinet elder, and retire as a cabinet elder, what a great honor is that?
When the emperor ordered the promotion of cabinet ministers before, Cai Guozhen thought about it, and later, he learned from his secret channels that after that day, Shen Yichang had invited Shi Xing and Song Yingchang to his mansion for dinner, and he didn't know what he said or did, but in the next few meetings, Shi Xing clearly supported Shen Yichang, and although Song Yingchang didn't say much, he seemed to stand on Shen Yichang's side.
It's not a temporary cooperation out of self-interest, but rather a ...... Allied.
What reason did Shen always use to win over these two seemingly unimportant people, but in fact they had miraculous effects at critical moments?
Except for entering the cabinet, Cai Guozhen can't think of any way.
He is keenly aware that Shen has always tried to form his own cabinet in his own way, that is, the kind of cabinet group with real power that looks forward to himself, not the auxiliary ministers led by the paper-paste Shoufu like Zhao Zhigao, Zhao Zhigao's cabinet is also an empty shelf, this old gentleman has no ability and determination to control it at all, but Shen has always had.
Shen has always had the strength and support group to win the real power, which Zhao Zhigao does not have.
Shen's cabinet must be a cabinet with real power, the kind with strong authority, which is Shen's goal, and for this reason, he began to win over the people he could woo, trying to split a group of people who support him, and the chips are very rich.
After realizing this, Cai Guozhen started to think about it.
Shi Xing and Song Yingchang are in charge of the military department and the other are in charge of the criminal department, and they can't play a decisive role at the moment, but you Shen has always co-opted them instead of me, who can play a decisive role in mastering the officials, don't you think it's very inappropriate to do so?
So Cai Guozhen expressed his dissatisfaction to Shen Yiyi by throwing his face, and was successfully understood by Shen Yiyi.
So there is the dreary atmosphere of today's cabinet meeting.
Under the premise of Yang Junmin's absence, under the premise that Shen Li lost power and no one took care of him, and under the premise that Zhao Da Buddha closed his eyes and kept his mind silent, the cabinet meeting was actually presided over by Shen Zheng, and the core content of the previous meetings was that Shen Zheng was trying to win Cai Guozhen's cooperation, and then was able to finalize the guiding ideology of the entire major event.
The two have been arguing for a long time, and finally, Shen has always made concessions, and secretly agreed to write Cai Guozhen's name on the recommended list and hand it to the emperor, and speak well for him, as for whether things can go as he wishes, it depends on the emperor's thoughts.
At that time, Shen had always stated this.
"The old man can fill in the list for Cai Butang and say a few good words, but whether Cai Butang can finally enter the cabinet is not something that the old man can control, it is all in His Majesty's thoughts, Cai Butang should understand that the best result is to enter the cabinet."
Cai Guozhen also knew in his heart that he did not have the identity of Hanlin, and he would definitely not be able to pass the formal procedure of Tingtui, and the only way was to follow Zhang Zhang's old path - Zhongzhi to enter the cabinet.
And if Shi Xing and Song Yingchang want to enter the cabinet, there is only this way, enter the cabinet by reaching an agreement with the emperor, this contract is the same way that the ministers reach a compromise, but the emperor is a minority, and the ministers are the majority, and it seems that the decision of the majority is more reasonable.
It's just that in some specific historical periods, it's really hard to say who says right and who does what the majority and who does the right thing.
