Chapter 738: The Cabinet is in turmoil
I have to say that Sun Tianguan's actions were very fast, and after reaching an agreement with Li Tingji, Ye Xianggao rushed out of the recital overnight, so at noon on the second day, Li Tingji got a joint recital signed with Sun Tianguan's name, called Please Eliminate Corruption and Clear Officials.
When Li Ge Lao got the Concert, he was working in the cabinet, and after opening the Concert and taking a closer look, Li Tingji did not hesitate, and directly got up and walked out of his small cubicle and came to the middle hall of the cabinet.
At this time, it was noon when the ministers were having dinner, and Li Tingji came out with a song, and happened to meet a cabinet minister going out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please have a share of the old man here, according to the rules, it should be handed over to others to vote for, I don't know which one has this free time, and drafted this recital!"
Li Tingji's face remained unchanged, and he said to a group of ministers with a smile, which surprised the latter for a while, because Li Tingji's approach was not common.
Although the cabinet is nominally in charge of secrets, and all the recitals must be drafted by the cabinet before being sent to the palace for inspection, but the high-ranking officials of the imperial court, such as the six ministries and seven secretaries, the cabinet assistants, and, of course, the Kedao Taiyuan have the right to perform secrets, and they can go directly to the heavens.
Due to the status of the cabinet assistants, they can directly send their recitals to the imperial front without going through the cabinet, so generally speaking, the cabinet rarely receives the recitals of the cabinet auxiliary ministers and needs to vote.
The most obvious is that all the recitals of the old first assistant Wang Xijue are sent directly to the imperial front, without going through the cabinet, which is the way of playing the cabinet auxiliary ministers, and it is not even a secret performance.
Of course, if the performance of the cabinet assistant ministers needs to be drafted by the cabinet vote, there are rules, but it is very lenient, and one of them is that it cannot be drafted by the vote of the cabinet.
And Li Tingji just said that according to the rules, it should be submitted to others for vote, which undoubtedly means that this book is written by him.
This is strange, not to mention the privileges of the cabinet assistants, that is, Li Tingji himself, as a close minister of the Son of Heaven, what can not be directly said to the Son of Heaven, but must go through the formal procedures of the cabinet?
"Now that Er Zhang has said it, he will hand it over to the old man! The old man has been in the cabinet for many years, but it is the first time he has encountered the recital of the cabinet minister! ”
Everyone was silent, and set their eyes on the old Shoufu, if it was a different occasion, maybe they would try it out if they were curious, but now that the cabinet ministers are here, it is natural to hand it over to the highest-ranking old Shoufu to do, but since Li Ge Lao took out the recital on this occasion, he didn't care that they all looked at it together.
"Then I'm sorry to bother Yuanfu, it's a shame to say that this old man is only named, not by the old man, but according to the rules, it is most appropriate for Yuanfu to draw up a ticket!"
Li Tingji arched his hand, put the song in front of the old Shoufu, and said.
"Oh? Joint recital? Then the old man should take a good look! ”
Wang Xijue raised his eyebrows, but he directly opened the notebook and read it carefully, although Shen Li and Zhu Geng on the side were itching, they still pressed their hearts and waited for the old Shoufu to read it.
However, their curiosity did not last long, because as the old Shousuke opened the notebook, his face slowly became solemn, and after a while, the old Shousuke put down the notebook, his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was thinking about something, but there was no joy or anger on his face, and he shook his head after a while.
"This matter is too big, the old man may not be able to vote alone, Er Zhang might as well be sent directly to the palace and let the holy judge go!"
"What the hell is it that makes Motosuke so cautious?"
Before Li Tingji could speak, Shen Li frowned and asked.
If it is just because of curiosity, then at this moment Shen Li has to ask, it can be imagined how big a matter is to be able to make people with the status of Lao Shoufu say something that is difficult to vote.
What's more, since Li Tingji took out this note in front of everyone, he should have expected that he couldn't hide it.
But this time, Lao Shoufu didn't open his mouth to answer, but it was Li Tingji who spoke.
"Yuanfu, this performance is a big event, even if it is sent to the front of the emperor, Your Majesty will inevitably ask us and other opinions, it is better for you to discuss it and take a note to show it, so that after entering the palace, you will have a good saying for Your Majesty!"
Does this mean that it is going to be made public?
Wang Xijue was slightly surprised, but since Li Tingji said so, he didn't want to dismiss everyone's intentions, as cabinet ministers, they already had the right to foresee the machine, not to mention that Li Tingji said it was not bad, this matter was sent to the palace, and the Son of Heaven would not make a direct decision, but would still send it back to the cabinet for discussion.
After hesitating for a moment, the old shoufu pushed the music in front of him forward and sent it to Shen Zhu and the others, and said.
"This sparse is the official servant Ye Xianggao, talking about the accumulation of malpractices in the officialdom, mostly in corruption and bribery, and impeaching the officials of the Taoist Department to inspect the corpse of a vein, turning a deaf ear to the trend of corruption, please plan the officials of the world, clean up the atmosphere, and punish them with heavy punishments!"
After a pause, Lao Shoufu glanced at Shen Zhu and the others, who had changed color, and said lightly.
"The same co-signer, Sun Piyang, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and the scholar of Dongge University, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites...... Li Tingji! ”
The old man's words were not shocked, and he clarified the content of the song in a few words, but it made Shen Zhu's two pavilion elders' faces instantly become ugly, and a pressure unconsciously rose and hit Li Tingji.
"What Yuan Fu said is not bad, this omission is indeed for Jinqing, the old man and the official Sun Tianguan jointly ask for a concert! I don't know what you think, how to vote for this omission? ”
However, who is Li Tingji, and how can the momentum of Shen and Zhu scare him, he did not move at the moment, and asked with ease.
Zhu Geng didn't say a word, grabbed the playbook on the table and opened it to look at it carefully, no matter what, you have to read the playbook first?
You must know that the cabinet vote is divided into two contents, one of which is to use as concise and concise language as possible to explain the main content of the note, which is actually similar to the work done by the military aircraft department of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in later generations.
The so-called vote proposal should not only use small votes to write an overview of the content of the note, but also to draw up corresponding handling opinions, which is the simulacrum in the vote proposal.
After the draft of the ticket is sent to the palace, the Son of Heaven only needs Zhu's approval or disapproval, and the cabinet will redraft the decree according to the opinions of the vote, and finally send it to the celebrant for review and sealing, which is a complete set of government affairs processing process.
And this has also formed a unique government structure of the Ming Dynasty, because the cabinet on behalf of the emperor to draw up the opinions on the treatment, so to a certain extent, the emperor can be lazy, meet the emperor who has no intention of government affairs, he will directly throw the power of Zhu Pi to the celebrant supervisor, and he will have a good time, but now this son of heaven is obviously not the case, so it is difficult to vote for this book, and it is difficult to draw up a pseudonym, how to formulate the opinions, this is a difficult problem!
