Chapter 437: Tingtui Wrestling
Soon after Xie Shen returned to Beijing, he threw himself into the busy government affairs. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
When it comes to the drudgery in this world, the cabinet on duty can definitely be ranked in the top three.
Emperor Lao Tzu had no intention of political affairs, and the mountains of music were piled up in the cabinet.
In the cabinet, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian are big guys, so naturally they can't be too tired, and Xie Shen naturally has to take on more responsibilities.
Everyone has a temper, and when he saw that there were many people who criticized the New Deal, Xie Shen was naturally displeased.
These officials and gentry are really selfish to the point where they can say things that are not reasonable.
What disappointed Xie Shen even more was that Xie Qian seemed to have a very ambiguous attitude on this matter.
The only person who really supports him is Li Dongyang.
Of course, as long as Xie Qian can remain neutral and don't openly jump out and go against Xie Shen, he will be very satisfied.
The top priority at the moment is to fight for Wang Shouren for this Huating County magistrate.
However, this is not an easy task.
In other words, it is an ordinary county order, and as a scholar of Xie Shen's cabinet, it is still very easy to ensure that one person is appointed. What's more, Wang Shouren's own qualifications are not bad, and he has a good reputation in the circle of officials and gentry, which is simply a matter of course.
But Huating County is the pilot of the new policy, countless pairs of eyes are staring, and countless people are thinking about it, and it is not easy to promote Wang Shouren.
At the suggestion of the Son of Heaven, the big and small Jiuqing, and the three scholars of the cabinet conducted a court push, and the new county magistrate of Huating County was promoted.
For the sake of the 17 pin county order to work hard and small Jiuqing, the cabinet scholars recommended and discussed, which is probably unique in the history of the Ming Dynasty.
Li Dongyang, as the first assistant, naturally presided over the court push.
Everyone understands the importance of this election, so there is no need to say more.
Li Shoufu directly asked the officers to write the candidates on bamboo sticks, and then delivered them to the plan of the duty room, and the scribe counted them.
In Tingtui, all people are equal. Even the secretary of the ministry has only one vote of power.
Xie Shen worked hard for this court promotion and lobbied several people in advance, but I don't know if these people will change their minds temporarily.
In Xie Shen's opinion, the work of just one cup of tea was as difficult as a long night.
When everyone wrote down the names and handed the bamboo sticks to the plan, Xie Shenzhi held his breath.
The clerk counted the signatures and counted the process of candidates, and Xie Shen simply chose to chat with Li Dongyang. It wasn't until the scribe had counted all the signatures that he looked at the plan.
"The one who counts the most is Wang Shouren, the director of the Ministry of War."
As soon as these words came out, Xie Shen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The strategy he adopted was to win over Jiuqing, because compared to the officials of the Six Ministries, the status of these officials was quite different from Xie Shen, and it was easier to understand and reason.
The most important thing is that Jiuqing, the various Shangshu, and the squire only have one vote of power. Lobbying Jiuqing is obviously more cost-effective.
For Wang Shouren, this release is by no means a bad thing.
Although he now has the title of the head of the Ministry of War, and he is a six-rank official, he actually has no real power because he is not liked by the Son of Heaven.
Wang Shouren was also stubborn, so he simply said that he was sick and did not go to the military department to work.
Such a six-rank Beijing official should be very angry, it is better to be sent to Huating County to contribute to Xie Shen's new policy.
If Wang Shouren can make political achievements in Huating County, it will definitely make the Son of Heaven's impression of him greatly changed, and perhaps Wang Shouren's entire career will change because of this.
There is no way, if you can't do it in the Ming Dynasty, it will be impossible for you to prosper in your official fortune. In this regard, Wang Shouren has a congenital defect.
At this time, he was "sent" to Huating County as a magistrate, perhaps to save his career.
If the court pushes the six Shangshu and Shilang this time, or if it is a high-ranking official such as the imperial envoy of the Imperial Procuratorate, the general political envoy and the general political envoy, everyone will inevitably compete for the result again.
But today's court push is only a mere seven-grade county order after all. The people present are all important ministers of the Ming Dynasty, all of them are characters with heads and faces, and they still can't pull down this face.
The whole process of the court push is recorded by the scribe official, and the results are handed over to the leopard room as soon as possible, and presented to the emperor of heaven.
As long as the Son of Heaven agrees to the result of this court push, it will have legal benefits, and the new Huating County Commander can take office.
Xie Shen was not worried about Emperor Zhengde's piece at all.
The emperor was already disgusted with Wang Shouren, and Wang Shouren was almost demoted from Beijing when Liu Jin was in power.
In the end, although Xie Shen was allowed to stay in Beijing due to his strong protection, he did not have any real power.
Now that there is an opportunity to send Wang Shouren out of Beijing, out of sight and out of mind, Emperor Zhengde is naturally willing to see it.
As for the game and the powerful relationship behind this, it is not something that this son of heaven will consider.
There's no way, who let Xie Shen catch up with such a ridiculous genius who acted rashly.
At the end of the court push, the six departments and nine Qings dispersed one after another.
Li Dongyang nodded with satisfaction and said, "There is a king to go to Songjiang, and the old man is also relieved." ”
Xie Shen gratefully bowed his hand to Li Dongyang and said, "If there is no help from the Duke of Xiya, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Brother Shouren to win." ”
There were only five officials he lobbied, but in the end there were seven votes for Wang Shouren, and the extra two votes must have been helped.
Xie Shen's plan to promote Wang Shouren was only told to Li Dongyang and Xie Qian.
Xie Qian's attitude on this matter was ambiguous, although he would not contradict Xie Shen, but it seemed unrealistic to expect him to help. Therefore, Xie Shen can be sure that the one who secretly helps must be the first assistant Li Dongyang.
Li Dongyang stroked his beard and said, "There are some things that the old man doesn't dare to do, but Siming, you dare to do it." If the old man refuses to make some effort, what face will he have to pretend to be in this cabinet. ”
"Xiya is serious. If Brother Shouren's trip to Songjiang goes well, then it will be time for me to prosper. ”
Xie Shen is very much looking forward to the new deal.
He couldn't wait to see what Wang Shouren could do in Huating County on land and commercial tax issues.
Li Dongyang nodded slightly: "I hope so." Sometimes the old man also wonders why the Ming Dynasty is wise and clear, but the treasury is not abundant. The old man was puzzled, until he read the letter on Siming, and suddenly realized. ”
Xie Shen's cheeks turned red.
"Xiya Gong, I also want to do something practical for Daming and His Majesty, and I don't deserve such praise from Xiya Gong."
Li Dongyang shook his head and said: "Daming needs people like Siming, if they are all like the old man to make up for their lives, it is just to drink to quench their thirst." ”
After a pause, he continued: "But Siming, you also have to remember that the helmsman of the ship of Daming is always His Majesty, and only he is the old man who decides the direction. Don't be fooled at this point. ”
