Chapter 335: Cabinet Decision
Yan Long said indifferently: "Bai Qi, the words you persuaded me to be emperor must not be mentioned to any outsiders, and now we are still in the period of obscurity, so we must not speak falsely, so as not to invite disaster." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Bai Qi replied respectfully: "My subordinates understand, Childe." ”
Yan Long glanced at Bai Qi again and asked, "Bai Qi, you are also a Xuanli person, right?"
"Yes. ”
"What is your occult attribute?"
"What belongs to it is the root system of the earth attribute. Bai Qi said.
"What about specific talents?"
"You can refine the earth into soldiers, and fossils into beasts!" Bai Qi said.
Yan Long's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "Did you use Xuan Li when Qiangui suppressed the rebels?"
I don't want to expose my hole cards so soon, after all, some time ago, the imperial court was still quite taboo about Xuanli!"
Yan Long smiled: "Okay, then you can temporarily hide your strength in the capital for a while." He then thought of something, and frowned again: "However, Xiao Daoling has at least reached the realm of Xuanzong, I am afraid that he will see through you at a glance." ”
Bai Qi said: "After I came to the capital, I also met Xiao Daoling, and he didn't say anything at that time. ”
"Maybe he can't feel your hostility towards the royal family in you, so he didn't break it! However, you should be careful to restrain your aura in the future, and don't show your edge too much. In addition, he should also serve well in the military department, behave gently, and not be unruly. Yan Long said.
"The subordinates understand. Bai Qi said.
......
Zhao Nanxing finally led the way to the Apocalypse, and the other ministers of the Donglin Party distributed among the six departments in the capital were also signed.
On the fold, he asked the Emperor of the Apocalypse to follow the law of his ancestors, and urged Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, to leave Beijing immediately and go to the fiefdom of Jinan Mansion, and not to come to the capital unless he was edicted.
The fold is first presented to the Cabinet.
When the cabinet ministers saw this recital, they had different moods, some were surprised, some were angry, some were indifferent, and some were indifferent and purely watched the excitement.
Ye Xianggao's mood is the most complicated, he knows that this is a psychological battle with the emperor, if the bet is right, they have the merit of supporting the crown prince, if the bet is not right, they will become ungrateful people who divide the royal family in the emperor's heart. The emperor may not punish them for the time being, but this account will have to be paid sooner or later.
The inscriptions submitted by local officials first go through the Department of General Administration, which is called the general version, and the inscriptions of various ministries, courts, temples, and prisons in Beijing can be sent directly to the cabinet and are called ministerial texts.
Both the general and ministerial texts must be drafted by the cabinet and then submitted to the emperor for ruling. The so-called draft vote is that the cabinet scholars put forward their opinions on the handling of the matters played in the question book, and wrote them on a small paper ticket.
Zhao Nanxing is the secretary of the ministry, and his recital is naturally the ministry.
Now that the ministry is here, the cabinet will have to vote.
In view of the particularity of this book, Ye Xianggao held a special meeting in the cabinet to discuss how to draft this book.
Sure enough, as Ye Xianggao expected, the second assistant Han Yi first objected and suggested that the book be immediately refuted.
The so-called refutation means that the cabinet feels that the emperor's decree or the performance of his subordinates is inappropriate and wrong, and then returns it.
This is where the cabinet is bull B, sometimes even the emperor's decree that has not yet been issued can be returned, is there more power in the world than this?
However, exercising the right of refutation is the prerogative of Shousuke, and as long as Shousuke nods, the matter is settled. Anyway, if there's anything, Shousuke just carries it.
Ye Xianggao didn't say anything, he still wanted to hear the opinions of other ministers.
Now there are a total of six cabinet ministers in the cabinet, in addition to Ye Xianggao, Han Yi, and Sun Chengzong, they are He Yanzong, Gu Bingqian, and Wei Guangwei.
Sun Chengzong and He Yanzong are hardcore Donglin Party members, and Ye Xianggao naturally knows their attitude.
Han Yi had already made it very clear just now that he was against submitting this piece to the imperial case, so he naturally supported King Xin.
The rest of Gu Bingqian and Wei Guangwei are members of Wei Zhongxian's eunuch party, and their statement is very important, because it means the eunuch party's position and attitude towards Xinwang Zhu Youzhen.
Gu Bingqian has been in the cabinet for a longer time than Wei Guangwei, so he said first.
Without the slightest hesitation, Gu Bingqian said that he should present the fold to the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and his statement was: "King Xin is the emperor's younger brother, and it is a matter of clan affection, whether he should leave Beijing or not, it is most appropriate for the emperor to judge it." ”
Wei Guangwei immediately agreed.
After the opinions of the crowd were finished. Everyone's eyes looked at Ye Xianggao.
At this time, he was the only one who could decide the fate of the letter.
Ye Xianggao said indifferently: "As Lord Gu said, the emperor's family affairs should be handed over to the emperor." I decided to vote for this book and submit it to the Imperial Front. ”
After hearing this, Han Yi sneered: "Okay, good, good, if there is any chaos in the future, don't push the matter on someone from me, Han." With that, he brushed his sleeves and left.
Ye Xianggao watched him leave coldly and didn't say a word. Then he picked up the brush on the desk, and quickly wrote a few lines on the mezzanine of the bill, and handed them to the cabinet officials, so that they could present them to the Imperial Court.
......
When Apocalypse received this letter, his body was already much better than some time ago, and his face was a little ruddy. But after reading this letter, his face immediately became gloomy like a thundercloud about to rain.
He read the recital three times from beginning to end, and he read the cabinet vote five times.
After reading this, he stood up from the dragon chair and paced in the golden hall.
After pacing for a while, he turned around and announced to the little eunuch in the palace: "Tell the Jinyi guards to command Yan Long to enter the palace quickly to see me!"
"Slave and maid obey!" replied the little eunuch in a soft voice.
After a while, Yan Long arrived.
Tianqi handed the fold in his hand to Yan Long and sighed, "Take a look." ”
After Yan Long saw it, he handed it back to the Emperor of the Apocalypse with both hands, and then bowed his hands and did not speak.
Apocalypse glanced at him and asked, "What do you think about this?"
Yan Long said: "Weichen thinks they are doing this too much!"
"How do you say this?" Apocalypse was obviously a little strange about Yan Long's statement. Usually when ministers deal with such sensitive issues, they directly kick the ball back to themselves, and no one has ever been so straightforward as Yan Long said.
Yan Long said: "The reason why the ministers feel that King Xin should leave Beijing is that they think that he may hinder the smooth succession of the crown prince, but now that the emperor is healthy, it is inappropriate for them to do this! To put it more seriously, they are cursing the emperor's life soon, it is a big rebellion, to put it mildly, they are unfounded and worried, and they are doing this too much. Personally, I'm leaning towards the latter. ”
After hearing this, Tianqi asked with a smile: "According to what you say, do you disapprove of King Xin's departure from Beijing?" ”
Yan Long said: "With the emperor here, everything is worry-free." King Xin is the emperor's younger brother, and if he stays in the capital, he can also accompany the emperor to talk. ”
Apocalypse heard Yan Long's voice, so he asked faintly, "If I am here, I will naturally not be worried. But what if I'm gone?"
Yan Long arched his hand and said: "The minister can't predict what will happen to the emperor after 10,000 years, but ...... If the crown prince was still a minor at that time, and King Xin stayed in the capital, then whether King Xin wanted to succeed to the throne or not, I am afraid that he would not be able to help him!"
When Tianqi heard this, his heart sank, and he asked in surprise: "Why do you say this?"
