Chapter 491: The power to manipulate cabinet changes...
~.-~ Wenhua Palace Scholar Yuan Ge was deeply confused. Is Li You’s purpose today to sow discord between Xu and Peng, or to dampen Yan Shangshu’s hope of joining the cabinet? Or is he deliberately taking the opportunity to show off his kindness?
Connotation, creating a new image of being cold and ruthless on the outside but kindhearted on the inside?
Probably killing three birds with one stone... After today, Li You's character index in the hearts of the courtiers will probably skyrocket.
Before today, the favorite to join the cabinet, Yan Shangshu, had few opponents. Even Mr. Yuan Ge was only thinking about how to become the second assistant and had no idea to prevent Yan Shangshu from joining the cabinet.
As a result, the same thing happened to Li You in the hands of Li You. After a few rounds, Yan Shangshu's strong foundation collapsed and split, and his popularity among the courtiers also dropped to the lowest point.
Instead of waiting for the results of the court recommendation, Mr. Yuan Ge could conclude that Yan Shangshu was out of luck this time!
Emperor Jinghe was firmly on the throne. After hearing Li Qianxian's confession to him, he wanted to say something, but found that he had nothing to say.
During the trial just now, Li You almost exhausted all the reasons from the law to the human relationship. It was more thorough and more profound than he could think of. What else could he say?
?I can only nod my head and say: "It's accurate!"
Li You immediately replied: "Your Majesty is wise! I accept your decree!"
The emperor, who was in power for the first time, couldn't help but sigh, this is what it means for a king to rule from the top down? The meaning of sitting here is to say these two words? Relaxation means relaxation, and there are good reviews and good reviews...
At this point, the court proceedings came to an end, but the court officials suddenly felt that there seemed to be no change in the outcome. The three criminals continued to live in the jail in the same condition as before, and they were just sentenced in name.
Now that Tingju is over, the next step is to push the new Grand Scholar. This time, the scope drawn is cabinet ministers, Jiuqing, the third rank of the ministry and above, and the director of the department. In addition, the emperor also summoned the left governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion.
He was also the attendant of Hanlin. Therefore, Li You was not qualified to go to the palace to participate, so he had to leave.
After Li You resigned from the emperor, he walked outside the palace. Passing by Yan Shangshu, he looked at each other and walked out of the palace proudly.
Looking at Li You's back, Yan Shangshu felt cold all over. When the news of Xu Cifu and Ding You's resignation came out last month, he immediately determined that he would become the next great scholar. With the support of the chief minister and Peng Ge Lao,
With his professional qualifications and his way of making good friends, he didn't think anyone else could pose a threat to him.
At that time, Li You must have been staring at him like a poisonous snake lurking in the grass. He never imagined that a fifth-grade official who had just entered Beijing could overturn his path to the cabinet.
Not to mention himself, no one in the entire capital could have imagined this. You know, Li You couldn't even participate in Tingtui last month. Anyone who thinks that Li You can exert huge influence on Tingtui's grand master is afraid.
To be made a laughingstock of.
Seemingly ruining Shangshu Yan's good deeds for no reason, Li You didn't feel any guilt at all. It should be noted that being kind to the enemy is a crime against oneself. If you are kind to Shangshu Yan, won't the cabinet become a world dominated by enemies from now on? More
Don't mention it, the candidate ranked behind Yan Shangshu is Lu Shangshu.
Although most of the bachelors in the cabinet were at odds with him, only Mr. Peng Ge was truly a mortal enemy. Now that Mr. Peng Ge is old, as Yan Shangshu is the successor of Mr. Peng Ge, who can he attack if he doesn't?
He is in Peng Ge's old camp and has to bear the attacks from Peng Ge's old enemies. It is his own fault and there is nothing to complain about.
The courtiers who can stand in the palace seem to be just a few molds and types, as if they are all standardized products manufactured through a selection machine. But to understand their essence, one must go through major events.
For example, through Yan Shangshu's decision today, others may think it is just selfishness and indifference. But in the eyes of Mr. Li, this is a gambler and ruthless person who dares to risk conflict with the chief minister for his own chance to join the cabinet, and refuses to save him. In this way
How dare Li You allow his enemy to join the cabinet?
Li You was about to escort three prisoners back to the prison. Today's protagonist among the three was Ding Qianyunshi, who had been on the verge of life and death for several times. Yang Qianfutai and Luo Qian were both unknown to others when they participated in politics.
Note the supporting characters.
However, the two of them witnessed Li You squabbling in the Wenhua Palace and quietly extinguishing Yan Shangshu's dream of joining the palace. They all felt that their trip was worthwhile. Looking back, they had a good time with Li You in Yangzhou Mansion.
Fighting is like children's playing house in comparison...
It was already noon when Li You settled the prisoners. After finishing his meal in the Metropolitan Procuratorate and taking a short nap, he got the good news. Today, the Wenhua Palace recommended a bachelor. Under the auspices of Zhao Liangren, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Lu, the Minister of the Ministry of War,
Wide selection.
Lord Li had tears in his eyes. After struggling for so long, he finally had a reliable partner in the central government. "He has the supporter combination of a cabinet minister in the inner court and a minister of official affairs in the outer court. He likes it best."
It's just that the specific order of the palaces and pavilions has yet to be re-arranged by the emperor. The most critical thing is who will get the position of secondary assistant. It can be said that a single move can affect the whole body.
There are also rumors that the new scholar Lu Ge will probably not be ranked from Dongge, who is at the bottom according to the rules, because he is too senior. He was a scholar of the Hanlin Academy forty-five years ago.
Except for Foreigner Peng Ge, all the cabinet members are his juniors in the academic field. Therefore, treating Lu Ge simply as a newcomer to the cabinet is somewhat inconsistent with the rules of scholars. You must know that the cabinet and the Hanlin Academy, which pays attention to seniors, belong to the same family.
At the same time, an even more outrageous rumor spread that Li Qianxian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate has the power to control cabinet changes...
At the beginning of the eighth year of Jinghe, there was a major change in the cabinet. Under the strong interference of Lord Li, the old chief minister vomited blood and resigned from office. The most powerful elders Yuan Ge and Peng Ge both stayed put, and Xu Shangshu suddenly became the second assistant.
, the weak Mr. Xu Ge also became the first assistant.
This month, when the imperial court promoted a bachelor, it was Mr. Li who once again caused a surprise in silence, causing Yan Shangshu, who was almost everyone's favorite, to sink into the dust at the last moment. At the same time, he forcefully pushed the old fellow from the same country who was studying with the prince to the position of senior minister.
If we want to achieve a result in the following dispute over the second auxiliary, we will have to ask Mr. Li to explore the way again... This sentence is so magical.
After leaving the office that day, Li You did not go home, but went directly to Mr. Lu's residence to congratulate him immediately. When he arrived outside the alley, he saw that he was already late, and there were already cars and horses outside the gate of Chuanlu Mansion.
The sedan chair was jammed with water, and it was noisy that many officials came to express their congratulations. In fact, most people could not see Mr. Lu, but it would be nice to leave his name on the door book, just like New Year greetings.
Li You struggled to throw himself to the concierge, and the old concierge shouted: "Who is in the house now? If it's convenient, I can go in."
The old man was smiling happily, but he stretched out his arms to stop Li Zhu. "Master Li, please don't come in. If my master has something to say, anyone can see him, except you! Please come back!"
Li You was speechless, this was just to avoid suspicion...
