Chapter 965 Li Chunfang's mess
Tang Yi had just returned from Guihua City, and was exhausted. Logically, he had to rest at home for a few days to recover. How could he have not returned home? The second was that he had no face, so he ran to drink with six rough men.⌒§§⌒It’s not really a matter of Gao Gong and the others who didn’t understand etiquette. Not long ago, the chief assistant Li Chunfang finally couldn’t sit still after hearing about the victory of Tokto, so he wrote a letter to resign.
Longqing did not approve it and wrote, "You are loyal to the country. I am benevolent and trusted. How can anyone ask for a rest when I say something? It is better to offer your job with peace of mind and not resign."
It seems that the emperor has a deep affection, but it would be too naive for anyone to take this thing as real in the officialdom. Li Chunfang made two resignations in a row.
Obviously, Li Chunfang's resignation was already unstoppable. Not only the Tang Party, but also the Xu Party, who was under the jurisdiction of Zhao Zhenji, had strong opinions on the mediocre and mediocre Prime Minister, who had occupied the pit and did not shit. He sharpened his knife and wanted to expel Li Chunfang.
Originally, Li Chunfang's greatest support came from the Jin Party. Yang Bo was worried that Tang Yi would eat the Jin Party alive with his advantage, so he had close contacts with Li Chunfang, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng and others, and wanted to counter Tang Yi at a critical moment.
Now Zhang Siwei has sat firmly on the cabinet chair, and the fat meat spun into his mouth, and the silver dollar is issued normally. The Jin Party has already gotten out of the dilemma and flourished. At this time, it is most necessary to repair it with Tang Yi and digest the fat meat in his mouth first.
Therefore, Yang Bo no longer supports Li Chunfang. At this point, the Prime Minister is already surrounded by enemies and ventilated on all sides, and it is impossible not to leave.
Although Li Chunfang was inconspicuous when he was there, it would be a big problem if he left.
The prime minister is a position that can be large or small. The key is how you are capable, but it is undeniable that the prime minister is the best platform.
It cannot be played in the hands of the mediocre talent Li Chunfang, but once it falls into the hands of Tang Yi, it will be different. In the past, Tang Yi, as a secondary assistant, boldly delegated power and gave a lot of support to other cabinet masters.
If Tang Yi became the chief minister, he would be justified, would he take over the power and how much power would the other cabinet masters get?
Especially when Tang Yi just defeated Altan and brought his military achievements, will he dominate the cabinet?
The cabinet is now the core of the court, and a little bit of trouble will affect the interests of all parties. Everyone must understand Tang Yi’s ideas as soon as possible.
Of course, Tang Yi knew it well. While drinking and drinking, Tang Yi said everything in his heart to these people.
The Prime Minister is not the master of the cabinet, but only the foreman of the cabinet. The Prime Minister’s responsibilities are to coordinate all parties, preside over the meeting, set the agenda, record and organize the results of the discussion, and speak out on behalf of the cabinet.
The Chief Minister does not participate in specific work, including the reform of the administration, finance, supervision, military system, etc., and the corresponding auxiliary ministers are responsible for it. Finally, the cabinet will be handed over to collective discussion and voting, and a resolution will be formed. The Chief Minister will explain to the emperor, obtain the decree, and promulgate the whole world...
This statement was better than what Tang Yi said before, and his norms of power of the chief minister were much greater than the other six cabinet masters.
The Prime Minister did not participate in specific government affairs. This alone made everyone feel relieved. At that time, whether Yan Song or Xu Jie, they all relied on the Prime Minister's authority, monopolized the votes and concentrated the power in one, and other cabinet officials were like officials, even becoming decorations. Such a bad experience completely became the past.
The cabinet masters under the Prime Minister are responsible for one's own stake and have great power to speak in their own field.
Of course, this does not mean that the prime minister is undermined.
The Prime Minister also holds the power to set an agenda and preside over cabinet meetings. He can operate it through procedures, discuss and vote, support or deny the opinions of other cabinet masters. In short, the Prime Minister can still hold the cabinet's resolutions and not issue them.
In short, if the cabinet masters want their opinions to become the cabinet's intentions, they must receive the support and understanding of the Prime Minister. Of course, they also have enough autonomy and power to display their talents and ambitions.
After drinking a drink until the second half of the night, even Tang Ruji, who had the best alcohol content, was drunk and returned home with great pleasure.
Turning around, it is a triumphal ceremony to welcome the soldiers.
Tang Yi had previously entered the city early on in the name of physical discomfort, and communicated with the cabinet secretly, so he naturally could not participate publicly.
He heard Xu Wei say the grand occasion at that time... At around 9 o'clock in the morning, the sun was bright and bright. Outside Andingmen, the twenty-mile long roadside was surrounded by people coming to greet him, with a number of up to 300,000 to 400,000.
All the Beijing camps were dispatched, as if they were facing a great enemy. When Tan Lun and Hu Zongxian led the generals to appear, cheers collapsed and the earth broke. Some people kept scattering petals, beating drums and drums around, dancing dragons and lions.
There are colorful sheds in each place, and high-ranking officials are welcomed by each place, with fine wine and food to reward the three armies.
When they reached the city gate, Hu Zongxian and Tan Lun were both dizzy when they were drunk.
At this time, Li Chunfang and six pavilions came to greet him.
The Prime Minister watched the crowd watching the lively crowd, and he felt very bitter. He endured it for more than a year and was unwilling to leave, just to watch Tang Yi fall.
Li Chunfang is a very patient and patient person.
But he didn't expect that after waiting, it turned out to be like this.
With this big victory, even Longqing dared not touch Tang Yi easily.
His patience became a joke. Now he still has to be happy and lose his teeth and swallow it. If he had known this, why would he have been there?
Li Chunfang shook her head and squeezed out a smile.
"Shi Shuai Tan, let me lead you today!"
Tan Lun hurriedly clasped his fists: "I thanked Yuan Weng for his wrong love, but the officials thought that only two warriors could truly enjoy such a generous gift."
Li Chunfang was stunned and asked, "Can they kill Altan's two heroes?"
"That's right!"
Tan Lun took the initiative to move aside, Li Chengliang and Xi Muyun walked out from behind on a tall horse. Behind them, there was a carriage with a mahogany rack on it, and a glass box was placed on it, and Altan's head was placed inside.
After a brief hesitation, a burst of applause suddenly erupted.
"Hahaha, Altan is just like this, and he still thinks he has three heads and six arms!" Gao Gong praised: "Yuan Weng, pursue three thousand miles, kill the captain, and promote my heavenly power. Even the champion of the Han Dynasty, it is only like this!"
Li Chunfang nodded implicitly. He took Li Chengliang's horse reins, Gao Gong led Xi Muyun's horse reins, Zhao Zhenji and Chen Yiqin were pulling horses for Tan Lun and Hu Zongxian. The other generals were also led by the Pavilion Master and the Six Ministers, walking towards the city with petals all over the ground.
On both sides, on the road, on the houses, on the trees, and on the people.
In order to show the joy, everyone's forehead was filled with red cloth strips, holding flowers in their hands, and cheering. Even if they were hoarse, they would do whatever they could.
It was noon before we arrived at the Meridian Gate.
Emperor Longqing was already impatiently waiting, surrounded by a group of nobles.
Seeing the soldiers returning, the emperor greeted him personally, delivered a warm speech, and then sent Altan's head to the Taimiao to offer it to his ancestors of all generations, which was so beautiful.
The celebration ceremony has not ended yet. In the next seven days, the officials of the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple will also bring meritorious soldiers to praise the officials on the street, enjoying the people's greetings and cheers.
This treatment is just the same as the top scorer.
No matter who it is, when you see the bright mandarin duck battle jacket or the bright armor knife, you will raise your thumbs up and praise: What a hero!
After praising officials, he was awarded a reward. In addition to the fields and grasslands planned by Tang Yi, he also had to be promoted to the title of title. Li Chengliang, who had killed Altan himself, was promoted to the general of Liaodong. Qi Jiguang and Ma Fang were given the title of Prince of the Left Governor of the Young Guard, and Tan Lun was given the title of Prince of the Prince of the Prince of the Prince of Huo Ji, and replaced Huo Ji as the Minister of War.
The Tang Party got what it wanted and took control of the Ministry of War, which was also one of the secret transactions between Tang Yi and Yang Bo.
The other Yang An, Tang Kekuan, Yu Dayou, Lu Tong, Ma Dong, Zhu Shan and others were rewarded.
Originally, Tang Yi wanted to arrange a governor to be responsible for all matters on the grassland. According to principles, Hu Zongxian was the most suitable candidate, but he was old and he was still excited with this guy. He felt that he was more familiar with the Southeast, and he was able to make trouble, sow discord and use his own hands.
He should be allowed to deal with the Western barbarians and the indigenous peoples in the South China Sea, so that people can fully understand their talents.
Tang Yi was not able to strip him of face, so he had to temporarily let the Liaodong Governor Li Tian** be transferred to the position of Governor of Xuanda and take charge of grassland affairs. If there is a suitable candidate in the future, make arrangements.
No matter what, at this time, the Tang Party had completely captured 70% of the nine-sided forces. Almost all the senior officials in charge of military affairs came from Tang Yi's disciples, or had a deep connection with him.
Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, no chief minister has had such strong military power.
This is also the reason why Tang Yi acted in a low-key manner and took the initiative to restrict the power of the chief minister. Confucius said: Make a fortune by making money and make a fortune.
He is already prominent enough to no longer attract hatred everywhere.
But it doesn't matter. He dares not pull it, someone will help him pull it.
"Sir, I have two news here, one is bad news and the other is worse. Which one do you want to listen to?" Shen Mingchen said with a smile.
"The bad news is that someone impeached Li Chunfang, right?" Tang Yi said lightly.
"That's right, and this person is yours."
Tang Yi said angrily: "What a subordinate, I'm afraid I don't even have a chance to meet, so I think of myself as a disciple of Xinxu. I have experienced the pain of Xuge's old master's peaches and plums. Tell me what's worse, I'll hear what's so amazing."
"Li Chunfang wrote a letter to resign, but in his resignation, he hoped that his successors could use the courage to resolutely promote the clearance of land, enrich the treasury, eliminate redundant staff, improve efficiency, rectify the royal family, and reduce the expenditure on rice..."
"He said that this is what he wanted to do but did not do, he could only count on the adults."
Tang Yi's face darkened and he spat fiercely, "It's all offensive things. I don't do it myself, I'll just push it to me. Don't be a son of man, don't be a son of man!"
After scolding, Tang Yi became cooler. Li Chunfang was so mean. It was difficult to clear the land of Zhangzhang, but he also brought the problems of the royal family into it.
After two hundred years of reproduction, the descendants of the Zhu family have spread all over the world. Tang Yi is not sure how many people are there, but there are no ones who can run away for 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. They consume seven or eight million stones of rice every year and occupy tens of millions of acres of land.
Like local gentry families, they are the biggest obstacles to clearing the land of Zhangzhang, and they cannot be avoided! (To be continued.)
