Chapter five hundred and eighty fourth crony has formed
Han Fu, the famous censor of Youqian City, voted for Liu Jin.
Although some people initially thought that Han Fu walked to Liu Jin's private house in Shajia Hutong because he was grateful for Liu Jin's words for him, so he stopped by to express his gratitude. However, when Han Fu visited Liu's house every day, he became a regular visitor to the Liu family.
People doubted this statement. Not only that, Han Fu also repeatedly announced that he was in prison. The old servant went around asking his colleagues, relatives and friends for help, but Liu Jin spoke up for himself, which caused an uproar for a while. In addition to those who hoped
In addition to those who were promoted and made a fortune, there were also many frustrated officials from the capital who came to Liu's house to seek an audience. When they found out that the highly hated Eunuch Liu, the Chief of Ceremonies, was not only not illiterate, but even quite knowledgeable, and he treated others like a courteous corporal, Liu was immediately
The alley in front of my house is more than three times more lively than before.
Faced with such a situation, Li Dongyang was quite unexpected. He had led Wenyuan for decades and was the oldest cabinet minister. His disciples were all over the government and the public. However, his retention as chief minister this time was not expected by the public, but had to be done for.
, in the past few months alone, he has repeatedly submitted letters to resign and become an official, but he has always been denied. When rumors spread that the fact that Han Fu was imprisoned and no one came to rescue him was linked to Li Mengyang, public opinion gradually became unbalanced, and even
When some of his disciples also discussed it secretly, he finally felt the seriousness of the matter.
Through Han Fu's affairs, Liu Jin finally succeeded in recruiting a group of truly useful talents; not to mention Xu Xun, he had three generations of old, middle-aged and young people under his command. These two groups were already full-fledged.
He can rest on his laurels at all, let alone stand on three pillars. Even if he wants to be the chief assistant of the Harmony! He doesn't even need to guess the person who caused the public opinion storm this time. It must be Jiao Fang, and only this duplicitous guy can do it.
So eager to take advantage of this to take the next step!
He was not on duty in the palace that night, but he did not take a rest early. Instead, he sat in the study for a long time. It was not until there was a noise outside and his wife, Mrs. Zhu, came in with a plate in hand that he stood up and said, "It's so late at night."
Well, Madam, just let others take care of it, why do you have to stay up so late?"
"The master has not gone to bed yet, how can I sleep alone?"
Although Mrs. Zhu was not taking care of foreign affairs, how could she not see the confusion between her husband's brows? Seeing that Li Dongyang just took a few bites of the porridge and vegetables absentmindedly, she asked with concern: "If the master is worried,
If you have any troubles that are difficult to understand, why not find someone to discuss them? Sitting alone and frowning is not an option. I heard that Liu’s house in Shajia Hutong is full of guests every day and night, and Xing’anbo Mansion in Wu’anhou Hutong also often has guests.
In and out. In contrast, the master doesn’t spend much time at home. Even if he does, it’s only for poetry societies and literary societies. Although he helps the younger generations, he always lacks an arm to discuss. In the past, there was..."
Mrs. Zhu said for a while, omitting the name of Liu Jian and Xie Qian, and then said with concern: "In the ministry, I must have someone who I can rely on for discussion. Are you not saying that Mr. Wang Ge is an upright man, can he
…”
"Wang Shouxi is a person who is more upright and more flexible, and is incompatible with my temperament. Besides, I don't have a close relationship with him. We can work together to deal with Jiao Fang in the cabinet and deal with Liu Jin, but the words in my heart are really inconvenient.
Tell him... Well, if Yang Sui'an could have returned to Beijing earlier to take up the post of Ministry of War, maybe I would have had more people to discuss with."
Seeing Li Dongyang shaking his head as he spoke, Mrs. Zhu said thoughtfully: "There is no such Yang. It may not be that there is no other Yang. I remember that the master once mentioned that Master Yang from Zuo Chunfang, who was also in the East Palace, came to the house.
I met him from a distance a few times. He seemed to have a calm and steady personality, and outstanding demeanor. I heard that his writing and knowledge were also first-class. What's more important is that he has lectured for the emperor now when he was still young and powerful."
….
Yang Tinghe?
Li Dongyang suddenly remembered that Yang Tinghe was the deputy examiner of the previous subject. Jiao Fang's son Jiao Huangzhong failed because of Yang Tinghe. Although he used to lecture at Donggong, he was still different from Japanese lecturers like Yang Tinghe. They didn't have much contact with each other, but after all
It was because he was famous as a young prodigy, and he recommended Yang Tinghe to Emperor Hongzhi. At this moment, he suddenly put down the chopsticks in his hand and pondered for a while before looking up at his wife with admiration.
"Madam, you can tell the truth about the dreamer with just one word."
"No, I'm just talking about a person's name randomly. The master is a fan of the authorities, and I'm not necessarily a bystander." Mrs. Zhu saw that Li Dongyang's brows relaxed a little, and she breathed a sigh of relief, "As for the current attack outside, Qing Zhe
Since the Qing Dynasty, please relax, sir. No one can make everyone agree, let alone the chief minister of the cabinet. Now the two parties have become a powerful force, and I am in it. If you are missing, I'm afraid
In the blink of an eye, the needle points are facing each other, how can the power of a tripod be achieved?"
"Dingzu... Well, when Xu Xun protected me in front of the emperor, I knew that being the first assistant to Xini would be a thankless job. It was not as comfortable as Liu Hui'an and Xie Muzhai, who could retire and return home. But doing this kind of thing
What I need is to refine the steel and turn it into a soft finger. Even if I try hard to do it, I am already exhausted mentally and physically. When Xu Xun came to Beijing, I never thought that people would become what they are now! You see, Liu Jin is in charge
The Superintendent of Ceremonies is the head of the internal officials; I am the chief assistant of the cabinet and the head of the civil service. But in terms of title, he is just an earl. In terms of duties, he holds the official offices of the 12th regiment and battalion with one hand, and the avant-garde of the government army with the other.
He cannot be called the leader of military ministers, but he is still so powerful. It is true that heroes have emerged from youth since ancient times!"
Mrs. Zhu saw that Li Dongyang's mood had obviously improved a lot, and she couldn't help but joked: "Didn't I say before that I didn't see that he was cunning? Why has he changed his story now? Since ancient times, heroes have been born in young men?"
After his wife caught him making such a speech mistake, Li Dongyang was stunned for a moment, and finally couldn't help but burst out laughing. He was originally a determined person, and after his wife comforted him and joked like this, he naturally cheered up and waited until it was over.
After eating the porridge, he immediately smiled and said: "In short, among the three, I am the oldest, and I will not lose to them! Isn't it just He Xini? In the past few years in the cabinet, Hui'an has been arbitrary and unruly.
I'm so impatient, I've always been fighting with each other, now I have to be patient and try to make ends meet!"
"I knew the master would say this. If everyone sees that things are not harmonious and gives up their picks, all the major events in the world will be done by evildoers. Is this the character of character?" Mrs. Zhu smiled and took away the bowls and chopsticks, holding them.
As she was going out, she suddenly turned around and said, "The master just said that Uncle Pingbei was a heroic young man since ancient times. It was obvious that he had taken him seriously. Either I am doing it in hindsight, or I think that Mr. Liu Ge and Mr. Mr. Du were
I underestimated him as a young man. It is better to be a white-headed man than to bully a young man to be poor. Although this is biased, it still makes sense."
Li Dongyang pondered thoughtfully after hearing the words. It was not until Mrs. Zhu went out that he breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing that Liu Jin intended to reform the court's laws, he was eager to recruit capable people to act as pawns. What exactly was involved?
After all, he, the chief minister of the cabinet, is not from Liu Jin's party, and he doesn't even know about the slightest rumor. The dozen or so reforms before were already shocking enough. If a more drastic one happens this time, and if he reacts slower, he may be in even more trouble.
big.
The wife is certainly right, it is better to bear the consequences of a white-headed man than to bully a young man into poverty. But now Jiao Fang is forcing him so urgently. If he leans a little closer to Xu Xun, I am afraid Liu Jin will react even more! If his reputation is ruined, it will be ruined.
On this occasion, he still had to go see Liu Jin first!….
For the well-informed Xu Xun, Li Dongyang met Liu Jin privately in a teahouse. The two discussed the matter secretly for an entire hour, and it naturally reached his ears in a matter of seconds. Although he did not know what the two talked about, but when
After the Wangri Dynasty on December 15th, Han Fu took charge of Su Song's grain storage with the title of right deputy censor of the capital, and after the official examination method and various seven regulations were announced, he naturally understood that he would not make a statement at the court meeting.
Li Dongyang and Liu Jin reached a compromise.
Xu Xun had a relatively deep understanding of Zhang Juzheng's examination method - after all, the performance appraisals in modern enterprises are similar to this, but even those systems were not as strict as the examination method. He turned around
What was given to Zhang Wenmian was not the final draft, but just a relatively rough framework. It only said that the six departments of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were asked to list the matters that officials should do during the year, and to evaluate them item by item at the end of the year.
And the biggest loophole in this is that if you fail to do it, you will be punished, and it is not downgraded, but fined, but there is no mention of rewards. He is very clear that for those who hope to win people over with arbitrary rewards, he hopes to rely on heavy penalties.
Liu Jin, who came to suppress civil servants, would not feel any inconvenience even if he noticed this loophole he deliberately exposed.
If rewards and punishments are all in accordance with the rules, what can Liu Jin do to show favor and establish his authority?
As for those unbelievable new policies such as making widows remarry, he knew that it must be Liu Jin who had seduced Zhu Houzhao who didn't care about these little things. Although he felt helpless, he just let it go. However, that night, Lin Han angrily brought
After Zhang Fuhua came to the door together, Xu Xun placed a more detailed statement in front of the two of them.
Lin Han was also an old official. After reading this statement at a glance, his eyes immediately became clear, and he saw the pros and cons in it. He couldn't help but raise his head and asked: "Liu Jin just said this today."
After issuing this new policy, you are..."
"I have known his statement for a long time. If I can't stop him, I have to think of a way on that basis." Xu Xun would never say that the statement was a trap he set for Zhang Wenmian, and he paused.
He smiled slightly and said, "As for now, let's wait until his examination method has caused countless officials to suffer, and then he will use it to give them some sweetness! Only by punishing and rewarding can people have hope. The former Jingcha Grand Planner
If you are too loose, you should let the officials below tighten it. Otherwise, Mr. Lin and Mr. Zhang should also know the consequences of the corruption of officialdom! It has been several months since Mr. Lin took charge of the official department. He should know that now it seems to be a peaceful and prosperous time, but there are internal and external troubles.
It’s already a big deal!”
Zhang Fuhua frowned when he heard this: "But the more this happens, the less eager for quick success."
"Since it's hard to get back, why not let people set fire to it first? If you don't break it, you can't build it. Break it and then build it. It's a risk, but it's also an opportunity!" At this point, Xu Xun looked at the two big guys who came together today with a smile, "
With your seniority, you two will see if there are any shortcomings in this statement and fill it in for me."
ps: That’s it for today. I will end this volume after one chapter tomorrow. I have to think carefully about it...
