After "Lin Tailai" was displayed at the door, Zhao Zhigao began to worry about gains and losses again.
As a newcomer, am I too high-profile?
However, in the eyes of others, I am a transitional figure who will not be able to work for long at my advanced age.
Therefore, others should have a high tolerance for you, and it’s not too much to make a high profile once in a while, right?
Forget it, let's not think about it so much now. My main task after joining the cabinet is to draft an edict to punish myself.
Today I hurriedly pretended to write a copy in Wenyuan Pavilion and handed it in. Lin Tailai was still waiting outside.
If you were not afraid of others seeing the clues, you could have omitted even the pretentious drafting step in Wenyuan Pavilion.
In this way, in the dim single room of Wenyuan Pavilion, after lighting candles, Zhao Zhigao began the first draft edict in his career as a pavilion elder.
It's just that this office environment is really not friendly enough for the elderly who are dim-sighted.
When they got off work in the evening, the two elders Wang and Wang were thinking about whether they should hold a banquet to welcome their new colleagues, but they saw Zhao Si leaving in a hurry.
But Zhao Zhigao did not go home and came directly to Lin Mansion.
At this time, the front hall of the Lin Mansion was already filled with laughter and laughter, and many celebrities gathered together.
Seeing Zhao Zhigao appear, Lin Tailai said loudly to everyone at the table: "Welcome our early member of the Update Society, Senior Zhao, to ascend to the throne and reach a new high!"
Everyone clapped and cheered together, and it felt really different to have a senior member of the club sitting in charge.
At the same time, everyone has to admire that Lin Jiuyuan is really powerful. A person like Senior Zhao, who is half buried in the grave, can still push forward the cabinet.
It was time for the carnival. When it was about to end, Lin Tailai suddenly became serious again, "You still can't relax during this period."
Then he said to Shen Yongmao: "You still have to pay attention to your father's movements at all times and don't let him think about retreating again."
Shen Yongmao explained: "According to my inquiry, my father's original plan was to appoint Xu Xianqing in the Ministry of Rites and Shen Guanyi in the Ministry of Personnel.
If Yang Wei becomes old and unable to hold office in one or two years, Shen Guanyi will be appointed to replace Yang Wei as Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
But first Xu Xianqing was dismissed from office last winter, and now Yang Wei left early, but Shen Yiguan met Ding You and had to stay at home.
Therefore, my father's future plans have completely collapsed in the past six months, which has caused his recent mental fluctuations to be relatively large."
Lin Tailai suddenly realized, no wonder Shen Shoufu has suddenly been so fragile recently.
Then he instructed: "Continue to pay attention to your father's thoughts and trends, and if you have any questions, please report them as soon as possible."
After that, Lin Tailai said to Wang Xiangmeng, the eldest nephew of the Wang family and a member of the Literary and Selection Department of the Ministry of Personnel:
"The focus of our recent work is the official department. You should pay more attention to the trends in all aspects in the official department and help the community continue to penetrate the official department!"
Wang Xiangmeng asked: "Who do you want to get into the Ministry of Personnel as a minister or a minister? Zhao Qianxian?"
Lin Tailai replied: "This is confidential, you don't need to know it for the time being."
Wang Xiangmeng said dissatisfied: "Do we still need to keep it a secret? If we don't know the goal, how can we do our job easily?"
Lin Tailai said impatiently: "Why do you talk more than Mr. Zhao Ge? Just obey the command!"
Besides, why are you so anxious? It would be better if there were no ministers and ministers in the civil service department.
Only if there are no tigers in the mountains can a monkey like you become a king."
Am I a monkey? Wang Xiangmeng hurriedly complained again: "I have a doctor above me, and you also know that the official department is full of clear water, and it is difficult for me to do things alone.
Originally, Senior Zhao was serving as Zuo Shilang to help, but now Senior Zhao has also joined the cabinet."
This means that even if there are no tigers in the mountains, it will not be his turn to be king, because objective conditions do not allow it.
Lin Tailai sighed and said helplessly: "It turns out that I can't even be a monkey."
Wang Xiangmeng: "."
How could you insult a member of the first department in the world like this?
Lin Tailai added: "The difficulties you mentioned do exist objectively, that's all. I don't count on you anymore."
After listening to Lin Tailai's instructions, everyone in the update club dispersed like birds and beasts.
Zhao Zhigao had only been working in the cabinet for two days when Emperor Wanli issued an edict to his guilty party.
This time the emperor's efficiency in issuing the imperial edict was comparable to that of having Zhao Zhigao join the cabinet. It was very fast and efficient.
This shows that Emperor Wanli really wanted to put an end to the disaster as soon as possible.
However, just like Zhao Zhigao's entry into the cabinet, the Sinji Edict was also issued quietly and did not attract much attention from the ministers.
On the one hand, disasters and edicts have no use value at all, and outdated topics are not worth wasting energy anymore.
On the other hand, everyone is paying attention to the officials, who has the heart to read the edict of sinners.
The chief official of the Ministry of Personnel, Shangshu, and the first deputy Zuo Shilang were both short of people. This was a rare situation in the entire Ming Dynasty.
At this time, the most excited person in the official department is Chen Younian, the director of the Literary and Selection Department, because he is now the de facto boss of the official department.
There is a phenomenon in the Six Departments of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the real power of each department, especially the core ministers, is greater than that of the ministers.
Many ministerial discussions are often decided by the minister and the minister, and the minister, especially the right minister, can only praise the paintings from the side.
Now the three officials of the Ministry of Personnel have lost both the Minister and the Zuo Shilang, leaving only the Right Shilang who is old and sick and often recuperates at home and does not take care of much.
Then Chen Younian, the doctor in the first department of literary selection, suddenly became the biggest one in the official department.
What's more, in the Ministry of Personnel, many officials belong to the Qingliu forces, so Chen Younian has many supporters, and during this window period, he can be regarded as the number one person in the Ministry of Personnel.
Chen Younian privately told Zhao Nanxing, Yu Zhan, Jiang Shixin and five or six other comrades in the Ministry of Civil Affairs: "The pace of official selection is controlled by our Ministry of Civil Affairs. There is no need to rush to elect the new Minister and Zuo Shilang. Try our best."
Delay for some more time.
While our colleagues are in control of the civil service, we will try our best to support righteous people and strengthen the foundation of righteousness.
This is an extremely rare opportunity in recent years, comparable to the two years when Senior Shen was in charge of the Ministry of Personnel!"
After hearing these words, the morale of the gentlemen in the official department and the Qingliu forces was infinitely high, and a sense of mission arose spontaneously.
Thirteen of our colleagues were demoted last time and suffered heavy losses. This time is an opportunity to replenish their health!
The opportunity appears so suddenly and unexpectedly, this is called the immortality of the righteous path, and God is helping!
Seeing that the atmosphere was in place, Chen Younian took the lead in raising his arms and shouting impassionedly: "It is our responsibility to protect the right path!"
Others also raised their hands and were about to shout when they suddenly heard several consecutive piercing bamboo whistles, followed by non-stop noise.
As the current de facto boss of the Ministry of Personnel, Chen Younian was very dissatisfied with this noisy environment and shouted to the servant outside the door: "What's going on?"
Not long after, the handyman reported: "Lin Tailai and an unknown number of servants blocked the door of our official department!"
Chen Younian asked: "Why did he come here?"
The servant replied: "He said that the official benefits will be implemented, and the clerk in the front office will act according to the rules and ask him to go back and wait for news.
He refused to agree, so he blocked the door and tried to break in!"
"What a bastard!" Chen Younian cursed.
Now is the time when Chen Younian's sense of ownership is strongest. The staff is like his own family. How can he allow thieves to cause trouble?
Therefore, after finishing his scolding, Chen Younian immediately ordered: "Go and call the officers and soldiers! I, Chen Younian, said that there are thieves besieging the officials and we need reinforcements!"
Not to mention other places, there are thousands of officers and soldiers stationed in the left gate of Chang'an next to the official department.
If you, Lin Tailai, dare to blatantly violate the law and commit crimes, he, Chen Younian, would dare to bury him!
Suddenly the clerk on duty also ran over and shouted: "Lin Tailai is clamoring at the gate, asking the current boss of the staff department to come out and tell the numbers!"
"Talking about numbers?" Chen Younian said slightly puzzled: "What's the explanation?"
The boss of the official department refers to himself. Chen Younian can understand it, but he really doesn't understand the meaning of the numbers.
The scribe replied: "It means talking about things or negotiating."
Considering the need to establish an image, Chen Younian responded: "Then I will go out and meet him!"
The call outside is to ask the boss of the civil service department to go out. Doesn't that mean that whoever goes out becomes the boss of the civil service department?
Then if you want to go out, you must go out, and go out publicly as the boss of the official department!
Moreover, Chen Younian believes that his personal safety is not a big problem.
Now if something happens to him, the official department will be paralyzed, and Lin Tailai will not be able to shoulder this responsibility.
And if I could go out and angrily reprimand Lin Tailai face to face, it would be a huge bonus to my own image.
It's a pleasure to use Lin Tai to build up his reputation.
With all the prestige and qualifications in place, once you have completed your service as a lieutenant in the Literary Selection Department, you will be promoted to a third-grade minister in the blink of an eye by a fourth-grade governor!
At this moment, the gate of the official department has been occupied by the servants of the Lin Mansion. The tall and majestic Lin Tailai, wearing a red fat coat, still looks like a soldier, standing in the middle of the gate with his arms crossed and an expressionless face.
There is no way, he has not yet been officially reinstated, and he cannot wear the official robe.
The other officials who came to handle the matter and the Jinyiwei officers responsible for surveillance had been squeezed into a corner.
I couldn't bear to leave. There was a lot of excitement happening in front of my eyes. It would be in vain if I didn't watch it.
After reading it, you will be able to master first-hand popular materials, which will help strengthen your ecological position in the social circle.
Chen Younian, who came out of the inner courtyard of the Ministry of Personnel, had his eyes wide open with anger, his eyebrows were raised, and he pointed his finger like a halberd, and sternly reprimanded Lin Tailai:
"Lin Tailai! How dare you act recklessly here! I, Chen Younian, on behalf of the Ministry of Officials, will definitely punish you!"
Lin Tailai took out a piece of paper, held it up high, and replied: "I brought the imperial edict to do something, and your official department just asked a few scribes to send me away?
What's wrong with me asking you officers to come forward to receive me?"
Chen Younian continued to yell: "That's nonsense! Where did you get the edict?"
If there really was an edict regarding Lin Tailai's official position, it would have been sent directly to their official department. How could he, the boss of the official department, know about it?
Lin Tailai replied again: "I copied a copy of the imperial edict issued by the emperor to all the people in the world yesterday!
The content in it involves how I, Lin Tailai, will arrange things. Am I not considered to be acting under the imperial edict?"
Chen Younian: "."
You don't need to think about it to know that there will definitely be something like "Lin Tailai was reinstated" in the edict.
Although this edict was not specifically issued to Lin Tailai, in a legal sense, it was the emperor's edict.
If someone else takes an imperial edict to implement personal treatment, according to etiquette and law, the official should be the one to receive it, otherwise it means disrespecting the imperial edict.
Lin Tailai looked around at the officials who came to do things in the corners, and said loudly: "I have heard for a long time that the officials think they are the head of the yamen, they are always aloof, there are doors that are difficult to enter, their faces are ugly, and things are difficult to do!
As soon as a clerk is introduced to the official department, he dares to scold the governor from other places! When a lieutenant is introduced to the official department, he dares to contradict the governor!
Even if you are an official of the Sixth Division, when you get to the Ministry of Personnel, you must look at the Wenxuan and take the Second Division examination to bow!
Unexpectedly, I, Lin Tai, came to work under the imperial edict and could not even enter the courtyard. Instead, I had to be scolded by the steward!
Although I, Lin Tailai, am incompetent, I still have some courage, and I will talk to the officials about the rules today!"
Cheers came from the corners on both sides, and a large number of officials came to cheer for Lin Tailai.
Anyway, the crowd was so crowded that the officials in the Ministry of Civil Affairs couldn't see clearly who was cheering and applauding.
As an old government cadre, Chen Younian also holds the power of the Department of Literature and Selection. He usually does not get angry or assertive, and few officials dare to make mistakes in front of him.
But now, as the boss of the official department, he was being pointed out by hundreds of officials, and he was numb.
I didn't succeed in improving my reputation, but I was confused in the face.
This Lin Tailai was so ungrateful that he actually mobilized the masses to challenge the authority of the officials!
Officials must not be insulted! If Lin Tailai were not surrounded by two hundred or two hundred servants to protect him, Lin Tailai would have been beaten out with sticks!
However, Chen Younian still restrained himself. In this unfriendly environment, he stiffly saluted Lin Tailai and said: "Since we are doing things under the imperial edict, let's go in and talk."
The entire staff rests on his shoulders. As the current boss of the staff, he cannot blatantly lose his composure and must maintain his grace.
Lin Tailai replied to Chen Younian: "I am just a small soldier, and I have already offended your officials.
I am afraid that I will be assassinated and shady when I go in, or encounter something unexplainable.
Therefore, things must be done here and done openly in front of everyone, so that they can be fair!"
Chen Younian couldn't help but shouted: "Isn't this reasonable?"
Among all court affairs, personnel and administration can be called the most mysterious and secretive affairs.
The specific process is often not disclosed to the public, and the officials will not explain anything to the public.
Otherwise, thousands of officials will come to ask for explanations, and the administrative work will not be carried out.
Therefore, Chen Younian is instinctively disgusted with "sunshine government affairs"!
In front of hundreds of people at the gate, openly handling official affairs, exposing all processes to the public eye, Lin Tailai can't think of it!
But Lin Tailai was very surprised and said: "I, the client who came to run for office, are not afraid of leaks and criticism, so what are you afraid of?
In broad daylight, don't you feel guilty? Then I won't even dare to go in!"
"It's up to you." Chen Younian regained his elegant demeanor. As long as he entered the process within the rules, he would feel confident again.
As long as you, Lin Tailai, don't cause trouble and only do things, you won't get anything out of it.
Your business, Lin Tailai, is nothing more than reinstating the official to his original position and adding some extra materials, what kind of trouble can you make?
Could it be that you, Lin Tailai, can still be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, or the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Personnel?
Get out of here as soon as you're done! The Ministry of Civil Affairs is not a place for clowns like you to show off and perform temple dramas!
