Chapter Twenty-Nine: Tingtui, the New Cabinet
Luan was gloriously promoted from a seventh-rank imperial history to a fifth-grade rite lang, but no one envied him.
Because everyone knows how he ended.
Sure enough, before Luan Conggui was in the Ministry of Rites and even his butt was hot, Zhu Qizhen arranged a new job for him - Nandian Xuanfu Si Tongzhi.
He wouldn't even pretend.
Everyone in the DPRK and China knows this, but even if they want to oppose it, they can't say anything.
Because this position belongs to the flat tone, it is also the fifth grade.
But the Nandian Xuanfu Division was in Yunnan, and when Si Renfa rebelled before, it was here that he bore the brunt.
As you can imagine what a good place to be.
This is not even as good as his original Zhengqipin Henan Provincial Supervision Imperial History.
It is everyone's consensus that the magistrates under the same rank are not as good as the Beijing officials, but you can't say it, because theoretically they are equal. If you directly say that you are punishing Luan Conggui, don't you directly look down on a magistrate of the same grade? Spit can drown you.
So there was silence in the court.
And Luan Conggui's death in a local turmoil soon after, which brought the drama of this scene to its peak.
The various speech officials also began to pay attention to their words, and they restrained a lot.
However, this is actually a petty fight, and the real bigwigs don't put their minds on these things at all. They paid far less attention to the so-called impeachment of Chen Guogong than Yang Shiqi was forced to resign before.
Without him, the cabinet was vacant.
There are four cabinet members, and now there is only one left, and the time has come for a change.
A pair of eyes were fixed on the position of the cabinet.
Needless to say, although Yang Rong has died of illness and Yang Shiqi resigned, Yang Pu is still there, and it is not their turn to rank seniority.
However, the position of the secondary assistant and the group assistant can be completely contested.
Zhu Qizhen also did as they wished, and held a court push.
Jiuqing was all present, and after a fight, the exchange of interests, and the three "Li Xian, Cao Nai, and Ma Yu" were singled out.
There is no problem with this, in the original history, Cao Nai and Ma Yu entered the cabinet one after another, and they were all loyal and promising ministers, and they were favored by Yang Pu and Jiuqing and other civil official group bosses, so they should naturally enter the cabinet.
In addition, in the original history, they were actually the little emperor's attendants, so it was logical to enter the cabinet, after all, they were familiar with the emperor, and Li Xian was able to enter the cabinet because of this, as for the other Wang Zhi and Yan Jingxiu, they were not as good as Li Xian in terms of performance, and they still had to make way for the bigwigs, so they regretted not being selected.
Zhu Qizhen expressed his approval of the list submitted by the ministers and the decision of Yang Pu to serve as the first assistant and Li Xian to serve as the second assistant.
However, just when everyone thought that everything had settled, the orthodox emperor suddenly said:
"The people you Aiqing recommended are all loyal and virtuous ministers, and I naturally trust them. It's just that I'm going to add one more, I don't know if it's okay? ”
"Who does Your Majesty want to add?" Yang Pu had an ominous premonition.
"Chen Guogong's son, grim."
As soon as Zhu Qizhen's words fell, the faces of the ministers changed.
Again?
It's not that it's grim what's wrong with them, but it's grim, he's a general!
It's true that the judge of the Fifth Army is a civilian, but everyone knows how he came to be the judge of the Fifth Army, this guy is essentially a general.
After he inherits the title of Duke of Chen, not to mention, he is the head of a proper military general.
Last time, there was a Yan Keng, but this time there is another stern, is it better to simply set up a seat for military generals in the cabinet in the future?
The ministers have long regarded the cabinet as their own land, and Chen Guogong was powerful before, but now they are certainly unwilling to let a military general enter the cabinet.
"Your Majesty, Yan Juan has no experience in handling government affairs, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate to let him enter the cabinet."
"If Your Majesty wants to be promoted to a strict judge, the minister thinks it's okay, but if you just enter the cabinet, you can't."
"Yes, Your Majesty, there is a hand in strictly judging things and fighting wars, but it is inappropriate to appoint military generals to handle government affairs, and not everyone is Chen Guogong......"
The hall was filled with opposition.
Zhu Qizhen's face also collapsed when he heard this, and he said coldly:
"If you can't enter the cabinet in a serious way, then I will also veto all of your lists, and only let Li Xian enter the cabinet."
"As for the severity, I will issue a decree to let him enter the cabinet, you can do it." Zhu Qizhen put on a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
He is not a fool, in fact, at the age of sixteen, he has learned a lot of imperial knowledge under the guidance of Yan Keng, and he knows a lot, far more than his peers.
Why did Yan Keng choose to resign, maybe he was a little confused at the beginning, but with his pro-government in the past few days, he felt the feeling of being in power, and he already understood.
This also made him respect this teacher even more, and even faintly gave birth to a little ...... Guilty?
After all, many of the other courtiers are sixty-two years old or even older, and they are still in the court, and Chen Guogong has retired to the countryside at the age of sixty-two, and Zhu Qizhen feels a little uncomfortable in his heart.
He poured such feelings into Yan Keng's son Yanyan.
Grim, must enter the cabinet! This is Zhu Qizhen's bottom line.
Yang Pu and the Jiuqing behind him looked at each other, with helplessness in their eyes.
In the final analysis, the appointment of cabinet members depends on the emperor. In the early years, when the imperial power was at its peak, the members were completely determined by the emperor's Qiangang, or they could find a confidant to talk one-on-one to let him nominate them.
But if the emperor resolutely disagrees with the result of the court push, then there is nothing wrong with saying anything.
Looking at Zhu Qizhen's appearance, if they don't let Yan Yan enter the cabinet today, this lord will not give up.
That's it, just let him go this time.
Yang Pu sighed:
"In this case, what does Your Majesty think of entering the Wenyuan Pavilion to participate in the preparation of the aircraft and the title of the secretary of the military department?"
"Wonderful!" Zhu Qizhen finally smiled.
And the civil officials could only look at each other and smile bitterly.
did not give him the title of university scholar, which can be regarded as the last stubbornness of civil officials.
A new cabinet has finally taken shape.
……
Zhejiang Province, Ningbo Province.
A spacious carriage drove on the avenue, escorted by dozens of elite cavalry, although they did not wear armor because of the restrictions of the imperial court, but their burly figures and long knives at their waists were still enough to make people fearful, even if it was a Ming army, without a few hundred-man team, they could not think of crushing them.
This is the Yan family's family members, and they are responsible for escorting Chen Guogong back to his hometown.
The soldiers of the Yan clan in Ningbo Mansion have always been responsible for providing the families needed by the Yue Guo Mansion and the Chen Guo Mansion, after all, they are all their own people, and they will only die at critical moments.
Running all the way, they finally came to Ningbo from Beijing.
