Zhu Houwei was a little speechless, and even thought that Wang Shouren was sick and confused......

You must know that his words directly bypassed Yang Yiqing, isn't it saying that Yang Yiqing, as a courtier, has stolen the authority that should belong to the emperor, if this matter is too big, Yang Yiqing can even bear the notoriety of not being a minister......

However, Yang Yiqing has been in the auxiliary government of Emperor Jiajing for more than ten years, and now the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty is prosperous, and his hard work during his reign is inseparable from it in any case, even if Yang Yiqing completely handles the world's government affairs with the will of the emperor, but if he has no ability to govern the country, how can he still get such a high evaluation from Zhu Houwei after Zhishi!

And what about Wang Shouren?

The founder of Xinxue, a generation of grandmaster-level figures, studying in the world, this new scholar all over the world can even be regarded as Wang Shouren's protégé, sending troops outside the border, recovering the land of Hami, annihilating the Tulupan of the unsubordinate, opening up thousands of miles, and governing martial arts, the only one in contemporary times.

For Yang Yiqing and Wang Shouren, they have been extremely popular ministers in their lives, and they have reached the moment of retirement, so the only thing that needs to be considered is their posthumous name, which is also the ultimate goal of every Confucian scholar who has been thinking and tirelessly pursuing all his life.

Then before they die, they are naturally reluctant to take any risks, because any mistake or omission may lead to damage to their posthumous reputation, which obviously outweighs the loss......

Yang Yiqing recommended Wang Shouren because he knew what status Wang Shouren had in Emperor Jiajing's heart, but who could Wang Shouren recommend?

For example, although Yan Song, Fan and these ministers also won the trust of the emperor, their qualifications were still worse after all, at least they were not qualified to sit in the position of the first minister, and if they really sat down, they couldn't convince the Manchu Dynasty, let alone the parliament!

Lack of morality and qualifications, sitting in a position that should not be sitting, at least will make the ministers disobey the yang and yin, and at worst, it may cause political turmoil!

This is definitely not alarmist, the emperor's strength alone is extremely limited after all, and Zhu Houwei does not have so much energy to play things and bow down to that way, governing the huge territory of the Ming Dynasty, he can only rely on thousands of officials in the world.

From the various yamen in the capital to the state capital to the county, layer by layer, level by level, so many officials, how many can the emperor know?

If the emperor is the captain of an ocean-going giant ship and the one who controls the general direction, then the helmsman at the helm is the key person who controls the giant ship and determines whether the giant ship can avoid the wind and waves and make the giant ship sail steadily.

In the country, this helmsman is the chief minister, and its importance can be imagined.

In line with the basic principle of not using suspicious people and employing people without suspicion, the Jiajing Dynasty has changed three first assistants so far, and none of them were deposed by Zhu Houwei......

It's a pity that Yang Tinghe has been calculating all his life, and finally missed the opportunity to follow the emperor to create a prosperous dynasty in vain, and I don't know if Yang Tinghe, who is now at home, has regretted his intestines.

"Zhai Luan, let's ......" Zhu Houwei sighed, Zhai Luan has been a cabinet assistant minister since the early years of Jiajing.

If you really want to talk about it, from the auxiliary minister of the cabinet to the deputy speaker of the parliament, he has been there for so many years, and in terms of qualifications, there is no one in the Manchu dynasty who is older than Zhai Luan's political qualifications, and even Wang Shouren is a little less interesting than him.

Although Wang Shouren is a Jinshi in the twelfth year of Hongzhi, and Zhai Luan is a Jinshi in the eighteenth year of Hongzhi, Wang Shouren has always been depressed in the Hongzhi Dynasty and the Zhengde Dynasty, and what about Zhai Luan? People are lucky.

A guy with insufficient qualifications and simply not qualified to enter the cabinet entered the cabinet by mistake, and then stayed in the position of auxiliary minister for more than ten years, doing things in a decent manner, without any outstanding political achievements, but he can also be humble, in the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Water Resources, although he is not very convinced, but in the end he can still let new scholars let go, which is a kind of political wisdom in itself.

Seeing that the emperor proposed Zhai Luan, Wang Shouren also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said: "Zhai Bu is old and serious, which is the right choice."

Obviously, Wang Shouren himself also likes Zhai Luan, after all, in the current imperial court, there is indeed no more suitable candidate than Zhai Luan, but he didn't say it but waited for the emperor himself to say it before agreeing to it, and there was no need to say much about his intentions.

"In this case, Wang Aiqing will first unload the burden on her body, go back to recuperate, and when she recovers in the coming day, I will continue this friendship with Wang Qing."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and retire." Wang Shouren got up and bowed three times and bowed nine times, perhaps, this is also the last time he will bow to the monarch and ministers in this life.

"Otomo ......"

"The slave is here."

Zhu Houwei looked at Ren Xingdao: "In just over ten years, this Ming Dynasty has walked and died, and before you know it, your temples have been dyed white."

Ren Xing sobbed and said, "Slave maid...... Slave ......"

"Okay, if you are loyal, I am tired of listening, arrange for a doctor to be stationed in Wang Shouren's mansion to treat his illness, if he is really unable to return to heaven, he will arrange a carriage and horse to send him back to his hometown, people are old, they should always take a look at their hometown before they die."

"Slaves obey ......"

"Let Zhai Luan come to see me."

Ren Xing took the order and left, and after a short time, Zhai Luan was taken to the imperial study.

"Chen Zhai Luan pays a visit to my emperor, my emperor Sheng'an."

"I'm going to bow down." Zhu Houwei smiled and said, "Give a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Zhai Aiqing is in her early fifties this year."

Zhai Luan said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has one in fifty this year."

"It's just in time." Zhu Houwei sighed: "Yang Aiqing assisted me in creating the Ming Dynasty, at the age of seventy-one, Zhishi recommended Wang Shouren to take over as the speaker, really to talk about it, Yang Yiqing and Zhai Qing have worked together in the cabinet for ten years, he should have recommended Zhai Qing, but in the end he recommended Wang Shouren, what does Zhai Qing think is the reason?" Can there be complaints? ”

Zhai Luan said solemnly: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has a very good personal relationship with Yang Fu, since Yang Fu recommended Wang Yangming, he must have his own reason, how dare the minister complain!"

Zhu Houwei nodded and smiled: "Whether it is public or private, Zhai Qing is still a few years younger than Wang Aiqing after all, there will always be an opportunity to govern the world, and now Wang Aiqing is unable to serve due to illness, and has asked me to resign and return to my hometown, I plan to let Zhai Luan succeed as Speaker of the Assembly, Zhai Aiqing has the confidence to take on this heavy responsibility!"

Zhai Luan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Assisting the king and managing the affairs of the world is the lifelong dream of the ministers.

"Good! My life's goal is to reform the Ming Dynasty's maladministration and make the Ming Dynasty stand on top of the world. ”
