Chapter 172 The Great Movement 4
"Wei ministers recommended Li Changgeng as the censor of Zuodu." This is Huang Kezuan, a scholar of Xige University.
"Wei ministers recommended Feng Congwu to be the Minister of the Police Department." This is Wang Zuo, a scholar of Beige University.
Looking at the several cabinet bachelors who spoke one after another to propose their candidates, Zhu Youxiao suddenly felt dizzy. He didn't know these people at all, didn't know their character, didn't know their talents, let alone what they were good at.
, with his eyes darkened, he couldn't make up his mind at all.
After the five cabinet bachelors proposed their candidates, the six ministers spoke, and each of them also proposed the candidate in their mind.
Later, Liu Ruoyu placed a piece of information in front of him. This was the resume of all the recommended persons, when they were selected as Jinshi, where they were from, and what officials they served after.
Sun Chengzong used to be a member of the Donglin Party, and Li Banghua, whom he recommended, had a close relationship with the Donglin Party. His previous relationship was quite normal. Cui Jingrong was from Henan, and Li Ruoxing, whom he recommended, was also from Henan. As a fellow countryman, it was quite normal.
But what happened later was unusual. Huang Kezuan was from Zhejiang Province, but the Li Changgeng he recommended was from Macheng, Hubei Province. In terms of crony relations, one was from the Zhejiang Party and the other was from the Chu Party. This was completely irrelevant.
The referrer and the recommendee made Zhu Youxiao confused and confused. Zhu Youxiao was not an idiot. In such a meeting, there was definitely a conflict of interest between the recommender and the recommendee.
.
But it was precisely because he understood this that he was confused. For the members of the Three Klansmen and the Donglin Party, with the Jin Yiwei, he could roughly delineate the scope. Judging from today's complicated recommendation relationships, some unknown changes seemed to have occurred in the situation.
Variety.
Nowadays, among the senior officials of the central government, except for Sun Chengzong, there are no Donglin Party members, but among the dozen or so people recommended by the courtiers, there are many former Donglin Party members. The three parties are trying to tear each other down, so I recommend your person.
, it is not uncommon for you to recommend me.
After frowning and thinking hard for a while, Zhu Youxiao gradually came back to his senses. Because of his blow, the Donglin Party's signboard was completely ugly. Although there were still some messages of imperial edicts and decrees among the people, the official conclusion was that Donglin Party
The top core of the party colluded with Xi Li and plotted rebellion.
Although most of the remaining Donglin Party members were not implicated because they were not in a position or too far away, they did not dare to bear the name of the Donglin Party. Except for some people who moved closer to Sun Chengzong, others probably defected to other places.
Under the boss's door.
With the abolition of the Sixth Section of the Civil Service, the easing of the responsibilities of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the structural changes, the three parties are expected to have undergone major changes. Not to mention falling apart, the situation in the past led by several municipalities is expected to be over.
changed.
In politics, it is normal to take sides. Now that the status of the cabinet is too high and the power is obvious, all the cabinet bachelors have naturally become the biggest ones, and naturally some people will join them.
Looking at today's recommended list again from this perspective, Zhu Youxiao seemed to see a slightly different meaning.
Today's morning meeting was really not in vain. Zhu Youxiao thought to himself. If Shang had not experienced such a scene this morning, he would not have noticed the changes in the current court situation.
Looking at the ministers who were sitting upright after nominating the candidates, Zhu Youxiao suddenly felt a little annoyed. Maybe he shouldn't have put such an important matter in such a court meeting for discussion. For such a big matter, he can act arbitrarily.
It depends.
Bringing this matter to the table will only expose his own weakness and let the ministers understand that he actually has very little control over the government and does not even know who he is using.
"Forget it, let's dismiss the court!" Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and ordered decisively. The officialdom has changed, and his old views are no longer useful. He must understand it again. At this time, there is no point in spending the morning court.
, it is better to disband immediately.
Liu Ruoyu was stunned. He did not expect to receive such an order. However, he did not hesitate and immediately shouted in a high-pitched voice, "Your Majesty has decreed to disperse the court."
The officials were stunned. They didn't expect that today's court meeting would end so quickly. They came to the topic and put forward personal choices, but it was over. However, they are all experienced people. Although they were shocked in their hearts, they still reacted very quickly on their faces.
They all bowed and saluted, "Best farewell to Your Majesty."
Compared to others, the cabinet bachelors were much calmer, but their eyes were wandering, and they looked at Zhu Youxiao's retreating back with a little more meaning. It was a feeling of surprise.
As cabinet bachelors and leaders of hundreds of officials, they are naturally much more sensitive to changes in the officialdom. On the first day they were promoted to cabinet bachelors, several people noticed this slow but firm change one after another. The old
Factions are fragmenting and new factions are slowly forming.
They thought it would take some time for these emperors to notice it, but they didn't expect that one of the recommended candidates would be noticed by him today, and they immediately woke up. After that, they were even more decisive and left the court without saying anything.
I'm afraid there will be some big changes next, several big bosses thought in their minds.
No wonder they think this way. No emperor likes to be deceived by his subordinates. Although this is not the fault of the officials, it is just the emperor's own lack of control over the government, but the emperor does not think so. The blame will definitely be taken by them.
It's on the back. I don't know who will hit the muzzle when the time comes.
Among all the people, only Sun Chengzong was the most calm. He had no selfish motives in recommending Li Banghua, purely because he did have the ability and was qualified to serve as governor of Hebei and cooperated with him to preside over the restructuring.
Qianqing Palace!
"I didn't expect that in the past, I relied on my advanced knowledge and information to bully people of this era, but today I was almost suppressed by these old foxes with information." Zhu Youxiao walked with some emotion in his heart.
But other than that, he had no other negative emotions in his heart. The unique experience of being a second generation, the lonely identity of a time traveler, the foresight beyond the times, the hard work since childhood, and the baptism of war, these various encounters have long made him
He transforms.
Determined and persevering. This is the best portrayal of Zhu Youxiao at present.
Zhu Youxiao paced back and forth in front of the main hall of Qianqing Palace, frowning slightly, thinking carefully.
My own strengths lie in my foresight and knowledge of various systems and technologies, while my weaknesses lie in geography, social customs, and knowing people.
When he first collected information, he didn't deliberately look for information on historical figures, so now except for those famous names that often appear in novels, he doesn't know anyone else, nor does he know the other person's character or ability.
Not understanding people well and being disconnected from the lower class society are Zhu Youxiao's biggest shortcomings at present.
After thinking clearly about the advantages and disadvantages, it will be easy to find countermeasures. Character, background and relationship will not be clear for a while. Since you can't see clearly, then start with the other person's talents and put the right person in the right position.
Constrain them with systems and let them act within the rules.
I am the emperor, they should be the ones to consider my thoughts, not me to speculate on theirs.
After making up his mind, Zhu Youxiao suddenly felt relaxed. The matter that was stuck in his chest was solved, and he could breathe a sigh of relief.
The Governor of Hebei, the Minister of Police, the Censor of Zuodu, and the Minister of Dali Temple are all places currently undergoing reform, and the top leaders here are the top priority. Many tasks cannot be carried out without them. The time has come to establish these four candidates.
There is no need to delay.
"Let's work hard today and look at all the information and filter it out in terms of talent and personality." Zhu Youxiao stretched and returned to the study with a relaxed pace.
Liu Ruoyu, who was following behind, didn't even look at the emperor's unusual actions, but still followed expressionlessly. Obviously, this kind of thing has long been used to strange things. Only the official who was recording daily notes behind him held a pen and wrote heavily in his notebook.
Made a note.
"The emperor is lazy and often behaves unethically."
"Li Banghua, Li Ruoxing, Li Changgeng. Good guy, Yishui's surname is Li." Zhu Youxiao looked at the information and smiled unexpectedly. He hadn't noticed it during the meeting in the morning, but now he noticed such an interesting person after reading the information.
place.
"Feng Congwu, Wang Zaijin, Yang He, uh, forget it, Yang He, I remember he seems to be a mediocre official." Zhu Youxiao frowned and crossed out a name. In his impression, this Yang He's ability seemed to be very poor. In a novel,
The lieutenant general was so angry that a time traveler who became Chongzhen vomited blood.
"He seems to have a son, his name is Yang Sichang. I think he is quite capable." Zhu Youxiao muttered, and then looked down.
"Dong Hanru, Cao Yubian, Sun Juxiang, He Rushen, Bi Maokang..." Zhu Youxiao looked at them one by one. Good guy, at least half of them are former Donglin Party members.
The six ministers were all promoted directly from the headquarters by Zhu Youxiao according to his method of promoting cabinet bachelors. For example, Zhang Heming, minister of the Ministry of War, Xiao Jingao, minister of the Ministry of Industry, etc. were all promoted in this way.
There is no way, there are so many state officials, and there is not so much time for him to screen them one by one. He can only bring someone up to work first. Now is not the future, officials have not yet had the bad problem of being promoted or dismissed, even if
He is a bachelor of the cabinet. If you do something wrong, get out of here.
Of course, nowadays, the term is every five years. As long as it is not a big deal, the bachelor will not leave so easily. However, the situation is different for the ministers below. Under the imperial power, they can be replaced at any time.
Looking at the information, one person's information aroused Zhu Youxiao's interest, Bi Maokang. The information said that this person was very knowledgeable about firearms. He was the brother of Bi Maoliang, the Minister of Household Affairs, and the recommender was also Bi Maoliang.
"Haha, you really don't avoid relatives when you are promoted." Zhu Youxiao smiled and didn't take it seriously. In addition to Bi Maokang, his brothers recommended He Rushen at the same time, and He Rushen, the Minister of Rites, favored his brother.
"Bi Maokang, the current Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, was a Jinshi in the 26th year of Wanli. He is good at painting, elegant and responsible for the utensils department, and has great talents..."
"Li Ruoxing, the current Minister of Shangbao, moved to the post this year and became a Jinshi in the 32nd year of Wanli. Good guy, he moved to the post after the cabinet was established, and now he is eyeing the position of Minister of Dali Temple. He is very ambitious!"
"Feng Congwu, a native of Chang'an, was a Jinshi in the 17th year of Wanli and the censor of Zuo Qiandu. Hehe, he is still a great Confucian who likes to lecture. He is a master of Guanxue. But you, the censor of Zuoqiandu, do not aim at the position of censor of Zuodu.
What do you want to do at the police station?"
Zhu Youxiao watched and complained. In addition to those recommended by these people, he also selected some Jinshi from the Wanli period who had a smooth official career to see if there were any famous officials he had heard of. The ones he had heard of were always
Better than these ignorant people.
