The conflict between the cabinet ministers seems to have begun to erupt.
You know, such mutual sarcasm rarely happens. No matter how deep the conflict is, you usually won't say such vicious words.
Now one of the cabinet masters is mocking another for doing nothing, and then someone has found out the old accounts. In this way, the struggle has begun to become public. This year, the Jinyiwei will not have a good time, so why isn't the court like this?
The cabinet is the central organization of the Ming Dynasty. To put it bluntly, it is the core of all officials. There is a little vibration here, which is even more troublesome and difficult than an accident in the palace. Because something happens in the palace, the one who takes the blame may be the Jinyiwei, or the Dongchang.
It may be a royal relative, but when the cabinet changes, there will always be people who are unlucky. The most urgent task ahead of everyone is to take sides.
A new round of reshuffle is imminent.
In fact, this round of reshuffle has begun. The Beijing inspection of the Ministry of Personnel has begun. The news also spread that the officials promoted by Liu Ji were all inaction, unpretentious, old, sick, and impetuous.
It is obvious that Ma Wensheng took action with the weak comments.
The Minister of Personnel Ma Wensheng is a hard-core Liu Jiandang. This is known to everyone in the world. It seems not surprising that he suddenly made such a move. However, Ma Wensheng came to be the pawn, which made people see the serious problem.
In the past, even if there were conflicts in the cabinet, the situation had to be maintained without breaking. Everyone would not have broken up directly, and it would be impossible to play so directly. But now, the conflict between the two sides is obviously even more powerful than during the Chenghua period.
It's clear that I'm going to deal with people directly.
The Ministry of Personnel had just taken action, and the Ministry of War also began to take action at the same time. Liu Daxia, the Minister of War, directly waived a military officer from the Beijing Guard, on the grounds that it was involved in the corruption and withholding military pay.
The Ministry of Personnel was engaged in the Beijing Procuratorate and the Ministry of War carried out anti-corruption, and these two ministers acted almost at the same time. It seemed to prove that the appointment and removal of officials in the entire capital was not the turn of some people to speak. Even if you have the ability, you can install your own confidants.
But as long as someone wants to do it, it will only be a matter of time before the battle continues.
At this moment, everyone realized that the matter was really big. It seemed that the lords in the court had been dissatisfied with some people for a long time. At this time, they planned to take a special action to suppress the man in one fell swoop.
In fact, if you think about this, you can understand that the greatest power of the cabinet masters is not how capable they are. The real power is the appointment and removal of officials. Although the appointment and removal of officials is the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel, almost every cabinet minister has any officials.
The power of the Ministry, and in addition, the appointment and removal of some senior officials is not the turn of the Ministry of Personnel to take charge of them. These are the goals of the cabinet ministers' competition.
It is precisely because of this great power that there are followers. Only by following you can be promoted and promoted, everyone is willing to be in charge of you, right? At the same time, relationships such as fellow townsmen and students in the same year also consolidate this system.
lubricant.
Now, it is obvious that someone has used this to eliminate Liu Ji's influence and directly defeat Liu Ji's followers. This is to deprive the officials who have lost Liu Ji's power to appoint and remove them. Once all the officials in the court meet Liu Ji, they will even be their own disciples and officials.
If you can't keep it, who else dares to hang out with him? Everyone depends on the cabinet ministers, just wanting to be promoted. Now even the official position may be exempted. Who dares to get involved in such a person?
Without the power to appoint and remove officials, there will be no followers. Without followers, don’t say that you are just a secondary assistant or a chief assistant, that’s just a joke. The paper cabinet is about who is talking about? What you are talking about during the Chenghua period
, the cabinet did nothing, there were Concubine Wan taking power above, and various alchemists under the jurisdiction of the government. However, the cabinet, which was supposed to be the center of the court, did not dare to have any rebellion, and gave up all these rights that should belong to the court.
The word "paper-paper" is incompetent. Liu Ji came from this cabinet. Now in the Hongzhi Dynasty, there are obviously people who ask him, the papar-paper-paper, to continue to carry forward the paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-paper-promoting cabinet.
Liu Ji looked very calm. When the storm was about to come, he seemed to be able to sit still. He went to the cabinet room on time early this morning, and neither said anything harsh or made any noise.
In the cabinet, Li Dongyang was already here. When he saw Liu Jilai, he nodded to Liu Ji as usual and said, "Mr. Liu is old and comes so early."
This sounds very warm, but when you chew it carefully, you find something is wrong. The voiceover seemed to say, you are old.
Liu Ji was unmoved and said with a smile: "If I come late, wouldn't it be a corpse and a place to eat? It's nothing to work hard, what I fear the most is the rumors."
Li Dongyang smiled and continued to write a ticket in the memorial. Liu Ji was sharp-eyed and saw that it was a memorial handed over by the Guangdong Provincial Administration, which seemed to be a matter of building a road. Guangdong has always been poor and has few household registrations.
Even the household registration in Guangzhou is only 70,000, which is far from the conditions for building roads. Now Lianzhou has become one of the most numerous distribution centers of goods in the Ming Dynasty. Guangdong is only a few steps away from Lianzhou, and even Lianzhou is still
Once it was a prefecture in Guangdong, how could people miss the opportunity? Naturally, Baba came to report to the court and let the court open the door.
In fact, there are quite a lot of memorials in the cabinet that require the construction of roads, and there are many important towns. Because the court's request could not keep up, they couldn't help but feel a little jealous, so they all reported to the cabinet.
Li Dongyang seemed to be in a dilemma, and he was unable to make up his mind for a moment.
Liu Ji just glanced at it and saw Xie Qian who was reading the school and was paying attention. Xie Qian obviously had no time to pay attention to him and ignored him. Liu Ji just smiled and then sat on his desk.
He called his subordinates and said, "Go and let the Tongzheng Department bring the memorial."
Xie Qian on the other side gave up his studies and began to write down his desk.
No one made a sound in the cabinet, but the tense atmosphere made the officials and clerks feel a little overwhelmed. No one dared to say anything, and they all tiptoed to convey various memorials.
, or reorganize and classify the newly drafted memorials.
Xie Qian had just read a memorial book and picked up the second one and was about to read it, but his face suddenly changed.
The memorial in his hand only says that the censor is a censor who is responsible for impeachment. To put it bluntly, if the imperial court is a big tree, the censor is a woodpecker, and is specially used to catch insects. However, most of the time, the Ming Dynasty
The hard-working woodpeckers obviously have no interest in catching insects. They are specially used to repair humans. The memorial in front of them obviously also has this function.
In fact, the content in the memorial is very simple. It is about the matter of Shang Gao Wang. Shang Gao Wang came to Beijing. Zhao Yifu, the minister of the Honglu Temple, neglected his duties and was punished. However, the Honglu Temple was wrong in this matter. Isn’t the Ministry of Rites?
Wrong? The Ministry of Rites also has the responsibility to welcome and send off the vassal kings. Now the vassal kings are in Beijing, but they dare not stay in the Honglu Temple. The Ministry of Rites does nothing. What is this? So, no matter what, the emperor asks the emperor to investigate and not take the blame.
This memorial is simply against the will of heaven. It is obvious that the purpose of the memorial is to bring the Ministry of Rites into the water. The Honglu Temple must be responsible and the Ministry of Rites must be responsible. No matter what, you have to deal with everyone, otherwise it will be unfair and favor one or the other.
The question is, who is the Minister of Rites? That is Li Dongyang who served as the other party. It seems that he was firing fire at the Ministry of Rites in the Ming Dynasty, but his real target is Li Dongyang, a censor. Who gave him such courage to attack the cabinet master?
Xie Qian closed the memorial and glanced at Liu Ji without hesitation. He sat upright behind the desk and pondered for a moment, but he couldn't hold back his anger. If someone else encountered this situation, it would probably be
He would put it aside without hesitation, and then talk about it later, but Xie Qian was different. He hesitated for a moment, but he still picked up the memorial and walked to Li Dongyang, saying, "Look at this memorial, Binzhi
I thought how to decide?”
Xie Qian's actions naturally could not escape Liu Ji's eyes. The corner of Liu Ji's eyes fell on Li Dongyang and Xie Qian, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Aren't you going to deal with my gangsters? Well, I'll just attack Huanglong and lead the disaster directly to you Li Dongyang. I, Liu Ji, are not wrong with my paper master, but you two stinky boys want to come and have a husband
When I was right, I was still young. It was Liu Jian. When I was the chief assistant, he was just a small assistant.
Li Dongyang took the memorial and read it, and a hint of coldness flashed through his eyes. However, he was not as unsustainable as Xie Qian. Instead, he smiled slightly and stroked his beard and said, "This memorial is interesting."
It's very good, why not let Mr. Liu take a look at it together."
Liu Ji raised his eyes with surprise and said, "What kind of memorial is so interesting?"
Li Dongyang asked his subordinates to hand over the memorial and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu will know at first glance."
Liu Ji took the memorial with interest, took a few casual glances, and said lightly: "It's really inappropriate. Now the atmosphere of the court is becoming more and more willing. There are so many people in Shanggaowang's matter.
It's a big deal, but what the Censor said is not unreasonable. The Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites are both responsible for reception. Now that this happens, the Honglu Temple is indeed wrong, but the Ministry of Rites cannot say that it is not responsible. The emperor's rewards and punishments are clearly distinguished.
You have to be evenly treated with water. You can't be more favorable than the other." He said, and smiled, "But the reason is this. Some things really cannot be serious, Mr. Li said it?"
Li Dongyang smiled faintly and said, "What does Liu Gong mean?"
Liu Ji said so much, but it was actually nonsense. Li Dongyang just wanted to ask him in person what he meant.
Liu Ji smiled and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter, so I'd better ask the Holy Lord."
