Chapter 365: That's it
"Grandpa Guo!"
"Li Han Gong ......"
A group of people gathered around to salute Li Wei, and Li Wei nodded in response while glancing.
After Zhu Yuanzhang's suppression on Wenchen's side, there are not many Li Dang left, and Jiang Shouqing, Jiang Quan of the Ministry of Industry, as well as Wang Jie, Shen Jue and others.
Among the six departments, Yu Xi is still in charge of the Ministry of Officials, but Yu Xi's remaining breath is not long, it is estimated that it will not last for a few years before it will be over, looking at the current situation of the Ministry of Officials, I am afraid that Zhan Hui will take over.
The Ministry of War is still He Li, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Punishment have been replaced by the prince's people, and Li Shu of the Ministry of Household has been promoted from the local government, although he has not yet formed a party, but he also belongs to the literati faction hostile to the Li Party.
In addition to these people, most of the other people in the six departments and five temples are wall grass, and whoever gains power will fall to whom.
On the Xungui side, there are Hu Hai and Sheng Yong who have a good relationship with him, and the other generals are affected by Xu Da's potential, and their attitude towards him has also changed greatly, and for a while, his influence on both the civil and military sides has formed a balanced situation.
Looking at these people, Li Wei couldn't help but think of Ru Taisu and Wu Bozong, and he faintly regretted it in his heart, knowing that today, he should have spoken out to protect these people.
After greeting each other with everyone, Li Wei asked Wang Jie about the recent affairs of the DPRK and China.
He didn't come to play soy sauce when he participated in the early dynasty this time, but really wanted to meddle in the government!
Wang Jie and the others were very happy to see that he had never asked about the world's affairs, and they took the initiative to inquire about government affairs.
Influenced by his previous actions, now the Ming Dynasty is developing rapidly, the city roads and bridges around the city are rapidly built under the drive of the new model and the new material of cement, and the treasure banknote is also popular all over the world, especially after the bank is all over the place, it is more convenient for the merchants, and the exchange business of the bank is used in various places, and there is no need to carry so much money with him, which is safe and convenient.
Of course, there is also the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce, which is now all over the country, with an annual revenue of up to 10 million yuan, and profits are often millions, chasing the taxes of the imperial court.
But the current household department is not the same, since he took office, he has been arguing almost every day, not only wants the chamber of commerce, but also wants to meddle in the bank, if Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know that they literati can't do things, I'm afraid these would have been collected by the household department a long time ago.
But if you don't give it now, it doesn't mean that you will never give it, if you keep arguing like this, maybe one day Zhu Yuanzhang's mind will change, after all, literati are not fools, and they can always learn something after a long time.
In addition to these things, there is also the most important imperial examination that is about to be held, and the chief examiner is being selected.
Li Wei wrote down these things one by one, and silently thought about countermeasures in his heart.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang is the founder of the country who is dictatorial and dictatorial, the affairs of the court are not a word, he can degrade people, and he can promote people again.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang has the ability to lift the table, it also has a price, just like weakening the Li Party this time, he also lost many capable ministers and officials, which is also a big loss for the imperial court.
This is the political game.
He used to hate these things, but now he had to think about them.
The whip sounded, and the ministers lined up to enter the palace, and Li Wei stood in front of the nobles, crushing the marquis behind him.
Lan Yu's status is now improved, his status is only below him, and the last dynasty is also following behind him, looking at Li Wei who is behind in front of him, Lan Yu is very aggrieved.
I think that when he was a marquis, Li Wei had just entered the court and was nothing, but now, even if he was promoted again by Zhu Yuanzhang, he could still only follow behind people's butts.
Li Wei didn't look back, his current target was not this little Yongchang Marquis, but the one who was high up in the deep palace.
Entering the main hall, Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, the ceremonial director guided the ministers to worship, Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand, and everyone got up and retreated to both sides.
Li Wei stood in front, and Zhu Yuanzhang easily discovered him, and suddenly felt a little surprised.
This guy usually doesn't go to court when he has nothing to do, and even when he sends someone to summon him, it's a grind, why is he so active today?
After glancing at him twice, Zhu Yuanzhang withdrew his gaze and asked the ministers to start their work according to the normal procedure.
After meeting with the magistrates who came to Beijing to do business, the six departments began to play important matters, and the official department, as the head of the six departments, was in the precedent.
"Your Majesty, there is still a shortage of officials in various places in Beijing, and the ministers collect people with high moral integrity and talent from all over the country, and list them on the book, at the mercy of Your Majesty's selection."
Zhan Hui came out of the class and played.
Although Yu Xi is the boss of the ministry, he may feel that he is about to retire and is a bit confused, and Wu Bozong was also in charge of the affairs of the ministry before, but now he has become Zhan Hui.
After Zhan Hui finished speaking, he took out the roster and prepared to present it, Li Wei glanced at him, and then said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's not necessary!" ”
Xu Shou, who was about to leave to pick up the roster, suddenly stopped his footsteps and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Li Wei with some astonishment, feeling a little strange, but he still raised his hand to let Xu Shou come back first, and asked, "Why?" ”
Li Wei arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the imperial examination is imminent, and when the students are in high school, they can fill these vacancies, and there is no need to use these recommended mediocre talents at all!" ”
When Zhan Hui heard this, he was a little displeased and said, "Why did Han Guogong say this? This is all carefully screened by the lower officials, how can it be mediocre? ”
"Heh, what are your screening criteria? How much money is it given to you, or who is closer to you? Li Wei sneered.
Zhan Hui's face changed greatly, and he said angrily: "Guogong Xiu wants to slander!" This official has never received a penny of money, and he has never known these people, so how can he talk about intimacy? ”
Li Wei sneered: "Since you don't know each other, how do you know that these people are highly virtuous and talented?" Hearsay? ”
"You!" Zhan Hui's eyes widened with anger, but he couldn't refute it.
He could know that of course these people had also heard from other officials, and although it was a bit excessive to describe it by hearsay, it could not be said that it was completely wrong.
"Your Majesty, what Han Guogong said is extremely true, the selection of materials by the imperial court should still be based on the imperial examination, and hearsay is not reliable after all."
Wang Jie also came out of class and said, insisting that Zhan Hui was hearsay.
"The minister seconded the proposal, now that the imperial examination is imminent, these vacancies are not in a hurry, it is better to wait."
Zhao Mao from the Ministry of Rites also came out and said that the matter of the imperial examination was under the control of their Ministry of Rites, which was a great power, and naturally supported Li Wei's statement.
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a while, and also nodded: "That's right, then let's wait for the end of the imperial examination to see." ”
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang also agreed, the ministers had no more disagreement.
Zhan Hui looked at Wang Jie and then at Zhao Mao, and was angry, but the imperial examination was a consensus reached by the ministers, and he couldn't refute it, so he had to grit his teeth and admit it, and Shi Li retreated to the court.
Li Wei and the others finished scolding him, and they all retreated.
After the ministry was finished, the new head of the household department, Li Shu, followed him and walked out, saying:
"Your Majesty, the imperial court has been fighting for many years, and the treasury is empty, please also ask Your Majesty to transfer the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce to the household department to take care of it, and the treasure money should also be in charge of the household department, and the department in charge should be under the household department!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Jie's face changed, and Li Wei also turned his head to look at the new Hubu Shangshu who had not been in office for a long time. (End of chapter)
