Chen Younian was quite dissatisfied with this preliminary list of candidates for the Ministry of Civil Service. It was far different from what he had imagined.
However, the skills are not as good as the people, and the rhythm of the meeting is completely out of control, resulting in such a passive situation.
After this result spread, people with a discerning eye in the official circles knew at a glance that someone, Chen, the literary selector, must have been defeated.
The more Chen Younian thought about it, the angrier he became, and he walked away almost rudely, without even caring about the most basic farewell etiquette.
Seeing Chen Younian walking to the door, Lin Tailai suddenly smiled and said to Wang Yongji, the right servant:
"Old Chen is so upright and upright that he didn't even mention the candidate for Zuo Shilang and quit on his own initiative."
Chen Younian: "."
Damn it! I forgot in my anger that in addition to nominating the Minister of Civil Affairs, today’s meeting also nominated the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs!
So Chen Younian turned around stiffly, walked back expressionlessly and sat down again.
"Old Chen, why did you sit down again?" Lin Tailai wanted to say something heartwarming, but was stopped by the upright right-hand man Wang Yongji.
Then Wang Yongji said: "Let's continue the discussion now! Regarding the nomination of Zuo Shilang, there is no need to mention me.
Once I get old and sick, I can no longer survive, and I will retire and return to my hometown at any time.
Secondly, it has only been two years since I was promoted to the third rank, and I have not even been in office for one term, so it is not suitable for me to move again.
There is not much difference between the left minister and the right minister who are both ministers, so there is no need to worry about it."
If you talk about it in such detail, you are really not interested.
The rank and treatment of the left and right ministers are exactly the same, but the left minister has a higher priority for promotion than the right minister.
That is to say, if there is an opportunity for upward promotion, it will usually be promoted to Zuo Shilang.
If there is not much hope of continuing to be promoted in the future, there is no need to fight for Zuo Shilang.
After expressing his attitude first, Wang Yongji, the right servant, said: "It is better for each person to nominate one person."
Regarding candidates for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the conditions are not as stringent as those of the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
Basically, most third-grade official positions, as well as a few high-ranking fourth-grade official positions, such as Shao Zhanshi and Qiandu Yushi, can be taken into consideration.
It is no exaggeration to say that any person of other third rank who is promoted to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs can be regarded as a promotion.
Chen Younian, who felt aggrieved, took the lead and proposed a candidate, "Yang Junmin, the right minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs!"
Wang Yongji asked Lin Tailai again: "What about you?"
Lin Tailai did not respond to Wang Yongji, but stared at Chen Younian and said seriously:
"You are an old comrade now, so you should not act on your own initiative at work.
You cannot deliberately nominate an enemy of mine just because you have an opinion about me. This is also irresponsible."
Four years ago, when Yang Junmin was the governor of Fengyang and the governor of water transportation, he was used by the fledgling Lin Tailai to practice his skills.
The first time Lin Tailai organized a military mutiny in his life was in front of Yang Junmin.
The second organized mutiny was to sneak across the Yangtze River and raid the Yangzhou City Governor's Office, and capture and detain Yang Junmin alive. Later, he also detained the patrol inspector and the military preparedness road.
This friendship really couldn't be better.
Lin Tailai continued to question: "And Lao Chen, why didn't you nominate Sun Qin, the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue? This is your most beloved fellow countryman!"
Bang! Chen Younian slammed the teacup on the table and greeted Lin Tailai cordially:
"Diaozang! Niang Sabi! Wooden pillars! What a bitch! You, Lin Tailai, talk too much!"
The key is that your analysis by Lin Tailai is on par with street stall literature. The nomination of Yang Junmin is obviously the reason why Wang San in the cabinet said hello!
Wang Yongji frowned slightly and warned Lin Tailai: "When it comes to government affairs, one should not focus on one's deeds but one's heart!
Lin Tailai really said too much, which is very inappropriate!"
If everyone is like Lin Tailai, who criticizes every nomination and appointment, inquires into the root cause, and conducts heart-wrenching motivation analysis, how can the government cadres carry out their work?
Lin Tailai did not contradict Wang Yongji, he just said "oh" and then said:
"Then I will also propose a candidate, Zhao Huan, the censor of Zuoqiandu!"
Chen Younian subconsciously questioned: "Why Zhao Huan? This person is not outstanding in all aspects."
Lin Tailai replied casually: "Since you nominated Yang Junmin from Shanxi, then I will nominate Zhao Huan from Shandong to balance things out."
Chen Younian unceremoniously exposed Lin Tailai's thoughts, "Nonsense! Is it child's play to select officials? You are clearly trying to win over your wife's family, the Shandong Township Party, for personal gain!"
Lin Tailai suddenly changed his face and threw the teacup in his hand directly at Chen Younian!
The tea cup hit Chen Younian's left shoulder, and the tea inside splashed out and splashed half of Chen Younian's body.
Chen Younian became furious and stood up again. The atmosphere suddenly became tense!
The teacup fell to the ground and made a crisp sound!
The sound seemed to be a signal, and several big men rushed in immediately and looked around the hall warily.
These are all Lin Tailai's entourage, that is, the Lin family's servants!
Wang Yongji, the right servant, was stunned. He had never seen such a well-trained servant in his life.
Judging from this reaction, could it be that they had agreed in advance to break the cup?
This is just an ordinary internal meeting of the bureaucracy, not a confrontation between the two armies or a conspiracy coup!
So Chen Younian instantly regained his composure. A meeting was just a meeting, so how could he take action?
Lin Tailai waved to the big men, "It's okay! Everyone, go out! I didn't drop the cup on purpose just now, I just accidentally missed it."
Then Lin Tailai pointed at Chen Younian and scolded: "Shaozukazai just said that when it comes to government affairs, one should talk about one's deeds but not one's heart!
The words still ring in your ears, and you blatantly trample on Shaozukazai’s words!
I, Lin Tailai, will not allow you to disrespect Shaozukazai like this!"
Wang Yongji: "."
I'm tired, destroy it! It's really too bad to have such two nominal subordinates.
One meeting will shorten your life by at least one year, and Wen Zhengming, who has a lifespan of 90, can't bear it even if he comes.
"The meeting is dismissed! Get out!" Wang Yongji finally shouted.
Coming out of the side hall of the right hall of the Ministry of Officials, Chen Younian was in a gloomy mood.
Of course he knew that his term was up this year, so he wanted to run a Ministry of Civil Service.
In this way, the strength of Qingliu forces in the official department can be continued.
I was 70% or 80% sure, after all, I have three best candidates.
But he didn't expect that Lin Tailai would interfere with him and make the future a little unclear.
Do you want to witness with your own eyes the power of Qingliu in the officialdom being shattered bit by bit?
While he was worrying about the future, Chen Younian suddenly heard that Lin Tailai, who was walking in front, had been thinking casually.
"It's over, it's over! The original plan was to only grab the left servant."
"In the end, I couldn't resist the temptation and intervened in the selection of minister."
"Why can't I control my hands?"
Lin Tailai remembers that in the original history, Wang Shizhen should have died around the end of this year.
It is already mid-May, so Wang Shizhen theoretically only has a few months left to live.
From this point of view, Wang Shizhen, who may be dismissed in a few months, is not a good candidate.
But Lin Tailai had no other choice, he really didn't have anyone at hand.
Wang Shizhen had finally broken away from the Qingliu forces, and her character was completely inconsistent with the Qingliu forces' fundamental Puritan standards.
Therefore, we can only take one step at a time, deal with the immediate situation first, and don't let the Qingliu forces easily capture the Minister of Civil Affairs.
What happens in a few months, what happens in a few months, everything depends on the fate of Mr. Wang!
Lin Tai came home a little late today because he had to go to the Jiaofang Department to conduct research and provide assistance. This was a task directly arranged by the Minister of Rites and should not be ignored.
I have to say that there are still talented people in the academy.
