Chapter 146 Forming a Cabinet

At this time, the court was clearly divided into two states.

One is that I am very worried, not knowing whether Zhang Yuanhai's incident will involve me.

The other type is a group of people who feel that they have become proud after Zhang Dang fell.

Of course, there are other ideas.

But people are concerned about one thing. Now that Zhang Yuanhai has fallen, who will become the new chief assistant?

After all, in the court, it is impossible to live without a chief assistant.

Generally speaking, it is impossible for young people to hold a position like chief assistant.

Therefore, many older officials are beginning to be eager to try.

After all, once you can reach a threshold like the first assistant, it is equivalent to being lower than one person and higher than ten thousand people.

After the morning court began, Feng Bogong stood up first.

All the details obtained from the previous house raids were reported.

After the announcement came out, all civil and military officials in the court were surprised.

After all, the amount of this family property is comparable to the income of the entire dynasty for several years.

Although many people know that Zhang Yuanhaimo embezzled a lot of money, they do not know the specific amount.

"Such a traitor should be punished by everyone. Fortunately, Your Majesty is wise and will execute such a traitor."

"Before, I felt that something was wrong with Zhang Yuanhai, a thief. As expected, I joined the Zhang Party to investigate his situation."

"The dear friend in front of me didn't expect that you actually had the same idea as me."

"This Yuan Hai also used up all the baht, like sand, to actually buy so many jewelry."

After such a number was said, there was an instant uproar in the court.

The loudest among them were some ministers who had previously joined Zhang's party.

"By the way, yesterday, I also saw a list in Zhang's house, and this list was the list of gifts she had given before."

Hearing the noise of the ministers, Zhu Youde suddenly spoke.

After these words were spoken, the originally noisy court suddenly became quiet.

Looking more closely, many officials had a look of panic on their faces.

If this matter is really pursued, there will be many officials involved.

After all, the previous court was full of insects. If you want to change it, it is not that simple.

Seeing the ministers below, all of whom looked panicked, Zhu Youde knew that his deterrent effect had been achieved.

"I am not prepared to pursue this matter, but I feel that the treasury is a little empty now, and I hope that ministers can lend a helping hand."

After hearing this, the ministers who had been panicked before reacted.

And, this is just preparing to ask for money.

Of course, Zhu Youde did not explicitly say anything about asking for money, but asked them to prepare it individually.

But this also made many ministers breathe a sigh of relief, just think of it as a waste of money to avoid disaster and a loss of family to relieve difficulties.

What they want to keep most now is the black gauze hat on their heads.

After saying this, the expression on Zhu Youde's face began to become serious.

"Of course, in addition to this matter, there is another thing I want to discuss with you."

"That is the official position of Chief Assistant!"

After hearing the words "Shoufu", the court fell into a brief silence.

After all, everyone wants to hear who the chief assistant Zhu Youde wants to appoint.

Many people have turned their attention to Feng Bogong.

Feng Bogong's face showed some indifference, and he seemed to be confident about these things.

After all, Feng Bogong can be regarded as one of the earliest ministers who followed Zhu Youde, and his qualifications are definitely sufficient.

Wang Po's current status in the dynasty is undoubtedly the first person, but he himself is a military attaché.

Therefore, it is almost impossible for him to be the first assistant.

If this is the case, after much deliberation, Feng Bogong is also the first choice.

Although Zhu Youde later appointed some new officials, those new officials were still a bit weak in terms of qualifications.

The chief minister is an official position that is subordinate to one person and superior to ten thousand people.

No matter how deviant Zhu Youde was, he would not leave it to those young people.

Nowadays, many officials are thinking about how to please Feng Bogong later.

In his mind, he was also thinking about whether he had any friendship with Feng Bogong before, and whether he had any grudges.

Those who had some friendship with Feng Bogong were naturally smiling.

But those ministers who had enemies with Feng Bogong in the past had a little fear on their faces.

But the next second, Zhu Youde's words caused an uproar in the whole hall.

"Chief Assistant, this official position must be abolished."

You must know that this kind of change has never happened in thousands of years before.

You must know that the chief and assistant representatives can have power.

The existing power of the prime minister has always been an important fetter to balance the imperial power.

The power of the prime minister often represents the rights of civil and military officials.

If we really want to remove Xiang Xiang's power, it will inevitably lead to the dominance of imperial power.

This matter is absolutely impossible for them to accept, whether it is officials who supported Zhu Youde in the past or officials who did not support Zhu Youde.

"Abolish the power of the prime minister and establish a cabinet!"

"The cabinet is composed of important officials from the DPRK and the Central Government. There are ten of them in total. When major national affairs are encountered, they will discuss them together."

Then, Zhu Youde fully expressed his thoughts.

After everyone heard these words, they were extremely puzzled.

After all, they had never heard of the cabinet before.

"Feng Bogong, please stand up and explain a little bit."

Zhu Youde said slowly.

There were only these four officials who had joined the cabinet before.

Among them was Wang Po, who was often absent from the court, so there were only three scattered among them.

Regarding the creation of the cabinet, Zhu Youde also asked those who joined the cabinet to keep it secret in the past.

And now that the person who should keep the secret from him has disappeared, this matter can naturally be put on the table.

After Feng Bogong's explanation, everyone gradually understood the role of the cabinet. In fact, the role of the cabinet is similar to that of the prime minister.

But the cabinet is a prime minister composed of ten people.

This actually made many officials interested.

After all, there is only one position of chief minister, but there are ten positions of cabinet bachelor.

Although many cabinet bachelors were not directly selected from among the officials, but were transferred by Zhu Youde.

But this also increases the chances for most of them.

The voices of the courtiers who were originally opposed began to slowly become quieter.

"Feng Bogong, it is up to you to decide on this matter. After the draft is completed, the matter will be announced to the ministers."

Zhu Youde saw that the voices of opposition gradually subsided, and then he made the final decision.
