Cabinet duty. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The news of Liu Chengfeng's entry into the palace had already been handed in, and some of the scribes in the room were also confused at this time.

I thought it was just that Bachelor Liu had just recovered, and he was extremely concerned about this Jinyi Guard commander. But then Li Dongyang quietly called someone to give instructions at noon the day before, and Xie Qian and Xie were the same early in the morning.

Isn't it strange that these three cabinet scholars are all concerned about the Lian Guogong?

Therefore, if there is any wind and grass on Liu Chengfeng's side, someone will report it in time, and he will not dare to slack off in the slightest.

But since the three scholars are concerned, even if everyone occasionally chats in this duty room, they are also interested in discussing the recent preparations for the establishment of the official school, but they don't say a word about Liu Chengfeng, this kind of abnormal behavior is really a little unclear, at noon, as usual, there are eunuchs from the former imperial dining room to send pastries and tea, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Xie Qian also invariably stopped the draft tickets at hand, and went to the kang on the side of the ear room to fill their stomachs while drinking tea.

What they are talking about is still the matter of official learning, and now the imperial court is making trouble over the matter of textbooks, and it is said that there are still people fighting on the side of the Ministry of Rites, and the angry Li Dongyang's face is a little blue, so he almost didn't slap the table, anyway, this Ministry of Rites is the book he is also in charge of, and others will only say that he has no way to discipline him.

The Ministry of Rites is like this, and the yamen of Guozijian, Hubu, and Honglu Temple are also similar, but some places are more fierce, and some places are not so disturbing to the point of earth-shattering.

Liu Jian didn't say anything about this matter, in fact, not only him, but Xie Qian and Li Dongyang also turned a deaf ear, their identities are different, and it is inconvenient to express their position, so they can only be vague, but who knows, the more ambiguous the cabinet is, the more arrogant it will be for those people below.

It was originally a good thing, but now it is only trouble.

Xie Qian took a sip of tea, and finally couldn't help but glance at Li Dongyang, and said, "Gong Li, I heard that Zhang Mengru said that he wanted to file a lawsuit?" Ay...... It's really sweeping the floor like this. How could the director of the Ministry of Rites go to Dali Temple to deliver the paper? ”

Li Dongyang was silent for a while, and said: "Old man, look at it, that Xi Zhong can't get out of it, even if it is an argument, you can't do anything to people, Xi Zhong is the old man's protégé, yesterday he also came to the house to see me, the old man asked him to apologize to Zhang Mengru, say a good word, what do you say about him?" He actually said that Zhang Mengru deceived the public with his fallacies and distorted the meaning of the scriptures, which was deserved. Li Dongyang shook his head: "For this, I didn't even listen to the old man's words, just let them make trouble, they just let them make trouble if they like, they don't want to be embarrassed, the old man asks for their surname, but to see how long they have to quarrel?" ”

When Liu Jian heard this, he couldn't help but smile: "Binzhi, that's not what you said, you have to take care of what you should manage." ”

Li Dongyang just shook his head and sighed.

Xie Qian put down the teacup and said angrily: "If you want me to say, this matter is inseparable from those newspapers, those newspapers are now afraid that the world will not be chaotic, this newspaper praises this, that newspaper praises that, and it is not messy enough." ”

Li Dongyang thought for a while and said: "This matter can't be fought for any longer, otherwise not only will the imperial court be torn apart, but the face of this imperial court will not know how to put aside." Although the emperor didn't make a sound, he must have been displeased. The old man thought about it, this textbook doesn't have to be exactly the same, let each school choose by itself, if you want to fight, you have to fight for these people in the local area, the court is like this, it's really not a good way. ”

Liu Jian nodded, Li Dongyang's meaning is to put this right to the end, and the bottom can be fought for, but it is better for the various departments of the imperial court to have less gunpowder smell, otherwise it will inevitably make people laugh. Liu Jian can't say whether Li Dongyang's idea is good or bad, but he knows that the affairs of the school are originally in the hands of the Ministry of Rites, and Li Dongyang is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, so he can't refute Li Dongyang's meaning.

As he was talking, a scribe outside hurriedly came in and said, "Lian Guogong is out of the palace......

Out of the palace...... Liu Jian's face did not have the slightest expression, Li Dongyang deliberately lowered his head to drink tea, Xie Qian wanted to say something but held back, and tapped his fingers on the coffee table on the couch.

Liu Jian waved his hand, and the clerk hurriedly went down, leaving only three people in the ear room, Liu Jian glanced at the two people, and finally spoke: "Jinyiwei is now more and more like Zhongtian." ”

An understatement, it quickly resonated with the other two.

Yes, Jinyiwei is not only pro-army, but also has the right to supervise, which is already not small, and has always been criticized. After arriving in the Hongzhi Dynasty, with the efforts of the cabinet, its power has been suppressed to the minimum, but who knows that the people have come to a bottoming out rebound, and suddenly become the world's largest yamen, the power is staggering, and the number of people under its jurisdiction is also unprecedented.

For this matter, it naturally aroused the vigilance of the cabinet, this Jinyiwei has now become a force outside the imperial court, and it is said that the benefits are inflated, Liu Jian is worried that in the long run, the people in this world only know the Beizhen Fusi, but they have forgotten the cabinet.

Such fears are not unreasonable, in fact, many of the rights won by Jin Yiwei have overlapped with the cabinet, which was originally responsible for the expenses of the imperial court and held financial power. But Jin Yiwei is now holding a few money bags, and the annual income is much more than the tax collected by the household department. Not to mention the local yamen, once these bureaus gain a firm foothold in the provinces, with the current financial support and strong strength of Jinyiwei, these bureaus will definitely become no less powerful than the three divisions.

In fact, Liu Jian's strategy of Liu Chengfeng's safe brand is very appreciated, and it is not a bad thing to gather wealth for the country, not to mention, Liu Chengfeng's treasure building and a safe brand are equivalent to completely collecting the commercial taxes that the imperial court can't collect. It's just that the arrangement of the Ping An brand is a tool for the incorruptible public struggle for power, and Jinyiwei is now also responsible for collecting taxes, so what else does the household department do? Although people are selling Ping An brands, in fact, it is to collect taxes.

Liu Jian had just recovered, and he didn't want to cause trouble, and in a sense, this Liu Chengfeng was once half of his ally, but from the perspective of the cabinet, he already had a lot of hostility towards the inflated Jinyiwei.

When Liu Jian commented on this Jinyiwei, his eyes couldn't help but look at Li Dongyang, everyone in the world knows that Li Dongyang and Liu Chengfeng have a good personal relationship, and his brother is also on business in Jinyiwei, Liu Jian wants to see what Li Dongyang means, and whether Li Dongyang's thoughts are consistent with his own.

Li Dongyang met Liu Jian's gaze, and naturally understood Liu Jian's intentions, he coughed, and said with a straight face: "I also think the same, a yamen, it is said that there will be hundreds of thousands of servants, it is really unprecedented, it is not a way to go on like this, this Lian Guogong has just taken office, and he has made such a big move, and he will pay it back in the future?" ”

He made a statement, Liu Jian's face became ruddy, it seems that Li Dongyang's interests are still on the cabinet's side, if so, things will be easy to do, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Yes, this is just the beginning, isn't there an official who has written the impeachment recital early this morning?" The emperor summoned this morning about Liu Chengfeng, and only then did Liu Chengfeng leave the palace, but now he has not seen the emperor's will, but I am afraid that those impeachment recitals will not have any effect. Speaking of which, it is still this Liu Chengfeng's saint who is too long, and it is not easy to stop this matter with a few recitals. ”

Li Dongyang half-squinted his eyes and said, "What do you think of Gong Liu?" ”

Liu Jian stroked the coffee table and fell into deep thought, and said for a long time: "Wait ......"

"Wait?" Xie Qian, who had been silent, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said, "If you wait any longer, if the raw rice is cooked and cooked, won't it be a problem to raise tigers?" ”

Li Dongyang was silent for a moment, but suddenly woke up and said with a wry smile: "I can only wait now." ”

After that, Li Dongyang said to Xie Qian: "What Liu Gong means, even if he wants to oppose it now, not only is it too late, but it also has no effect. Li Dongyang couldn't help sighing, and said bitterly: "Last time, Yu Qiao also said that Your Majesty is seriously ill, and at this juncture, it is better not to fight, don't provoke Your Majesty to anger and hurt your body." The old man said something that shouldn't be said, just say that we are fighting according to reason, and Your Majesty has made a regression, but don't forget, the relationship between the prince and Liu Chengfeng is irreversible, we can stop it for a while, but can we stop it for a lifetime? The top priority at the moment is not to cause trouble to the emperor, on the other hand, to say hello to the provinces, not to let the authority of the Detective Bureau be too heavy, and to fight for what should be fought over. All that's left to do is wait......"

When Li Dongyang said that when he waited, he glanced at Xie Qian meaningfully, and Xie Qian also understood a little, in the final analysis, there may be a new monarch on the throne this year, no matter how they fight now, everything will have to be overturned in the end, rather than this, it is better to look at the direction of the wind first.

Liu Jian took a sip of tea and said on the side: "Besides, Jinyiwei is so powerful, there are many unhappy people, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng, don't worry." ”

After he said that, he said: "It's not early, Your Majesty is still waiting for our tickets over there, let's go do things first, and then talk about it after the errand is done." ”

Li Dongyang and Xie Qian nodded one after another, knowing that these words could be stopped immediately, so they went out of the ear room one after another, and went to their own places.
