One thousand one hundred and seventy-seven chapters(2/2)
In other words, the officials in another banquet were all selected by the officials in this banquet, and these people held the power to promote the highest officials of the Ming Dynasty.
Power is not only a legal blessing and harm, but also changes and determines the fate of countless people.
Both of them were thoughtful in etiquette, but Shen Shixing and Song Feng had different thoughts in their hearts.
Song Li was originally the Minister of Revenue, and his relationship with Shen Shixing was not bad. He maintained a neutral relationship between Shen Li and Shen Shixing. Sometimes, there was any conflict between Shen Li and Shen Shixing, and it was Song Li who made the mistake in the middle.
But now after Shen Li left, the emperor saw that Shen Shixing was not the only way to dominate the power of the prime minister, so he asked Yang Wei to go home and instead asked Song Xuan to serve as the Minister of Personnel to restrict Shen Shixing.
That is the beginning of the dispute between the cabinet.
Song Xuan knew that the emperor wanted to use him as a gun envoy, so since he took office, he not only promoted many officials who had disagreements with Shen Shixing before, but also worked hard to maintain relations with the cabinet.
As for Shen Shixing, of course he understood, but after Yang Wei left, his personnel arrangements became less and less comfortable. The opinions that were not conducive to him arose in the capital.
As one of the nine ministers, Shen Shixing must win it. In this way, the nine ministers' court will consider their control over the situation.
"Yuanfu, the rain is getting heavier and heavier."
Shen Shixing smiled and said, "Last year, there was no rain in the capital. Several of us ministers were anxious like ants on a hot pan. You were in charge of the Ministry of Revenue and frowned all day long. But this year, we have made up all the rain from last year. God really made me unable to understand it."
Song Qian smiled and said, "God's will has been unpredictable since ancient times. As officials, we can only do our best to do our best and leave our destiny. Everyone has no choice but to do it!"
Shen Shixing understood what Song Wei meant, nodded and said, "Bojing, you are a virtuous gentleman. By the way, are you all here?"
"Report to Yuanfu, all the officials above the third rank have arrived."
Shen Shixing nodded and sat upright and said, "Then let's discuss it!"
Then the officials of the Ministry of Personnel issued a paper, and then the Minister of Personnel Song Wei said to Shen Shi: "This time, the Minister of Rites is vacant. The Minister of Rites is one of the nine great ministers. It is necessary to choose officials who are experienced and have full expectations. As for the officials who are able to serve, I plan to ask the other one for your Majesty's Holy Tribunal in addition to the two of them. I wonder what Yuan Fu's intention is to give?"
"The position of the Ministry of Rites is extremely critical, and it is also good to choose more people."
Upon hearing this, Song Qian nodded and immediately presented Shen Shixing with the candidate for official position this time.
Shen Shixing looked at it, Luo Wanhua, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel in Nanjing, Wang Honghui, the Minister of Rites in Nanjing, and Sun Jing, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel in Nanjing.
, Nanjing Censor Sun Piyang, former left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, Lin Yanchao.
Song Xuan listed five names that were capable of serving as officials, but Ru Shen Shixing could see at a glance that Ru Sun Piyang and Sun Jing were just here to run away.
Because the Minister of Rites has always been a minister of the Ci, only the Session of the Jiajing period and Xu Xuemo during the Wanli period made an exception to serve as the Minister of Rites. These are all special circumstances. Generally speaking, even posthumously awarded officials will not be awarded the position of Minister of Rites.
Among the five, Luo Wanhua, Wang Honghui and Lin Yanchao were the ones who were born in Hanlin.
Luo Wanhua was the top scholar in the second year of Longqing. He served as the Imperial College Priest, but before, he advised the emperor about the country, but the emperor refused to accept it. Luo Wanhua was angry and begged for the outside office. The emperor was not clear about his mind and asked you to leave immediately. Therefore, it was impossible for him to be transferred back now, and the emperor would not appoint him to Beijing as the Minister of Rites to disgust him.
So the one who is truly qualified to be entrusted is Lin Yanchao and Wang Honghui.
Wang Honghui was a Jinshi in the 44th year of Jiajing and a master of literary circles today. He has no shortcomings in terms of resume, but nothing is too outstanding.
Compared with Lin Yanchao... then it cannot be compared, and there is no way to compare it.
Shen Shixing was a little unexpected. He looked up at Song Qian and asked immediately, "Bo Jing is this?"
But when Song Qian nodded, he said, "Yuan Fu, the Minister of Rites is of great importance. Officials who are not far-sighted and capable of serving cannot be competent. These five officials are all officials that Song thought could be entrusted. In the end, I would like to ask Yuan Fu to decide with you."
Shen Shixing understood what Song Qian meant nodded.
The resume of the official position is published below.
In the two banquet halls on the left and right of Quezuomen, officials looked at the list.
Most of the people who can sit in this position are not stupid, and they have figured out what the meaning behind the list is.
Many officials smiled.
In the banquet hall, Huang Fengxiang immediately picked up the pen and wrote on the sheet. He looked like Lu Weizhen, and Li Tianqiu quickly put down his pen. Everyone didn't say anything, they met each other and smiled, and they were tacit.
However, Zhao Yongxian, who was sitting beside him, peeked at Huang Fengxiangbo and shook his head.
Huang Fengxiang felt that Zhao Yongxian's eyes swept away his thin top, but the other party reached out to cover it.
Huang Fengxiang also shook his head and then smiled.
In another banquet hall, everyone finished the title. Wang Xijue thought for a long time, and then wrote the word "zheng" after Luo Wanhua's name, and wrote "peripheral" after Wang Honghui's name. As for Lin Yanchao's name, he wrote "last".
The so-called "last" is the final recommendation.
In the end, everyone's manuscript book was handed to Song Feng.
The elected official must be signed. It is clear who elected which official is clear at a glance. If the official is incompetent, the lord will be held accountable.
Song Qian counted and smiled at Shen Shixing: "With thirty people and thirty-eight people listed this person as the positive recommendation, it seems that everyone hopes for!"
Shen Shixing nodded and said, "The Holy Practice is what everyone wants."
"What Yuan Fu said is very much."
Shen Shixing immediately, and Song Feng personally wrote a memorial to submit the results of the court's proposal to the emperor to make a judgment.
In the Qianqing Palace.
It was raining outside the palace.
The emperor looked at Shen Shixing under the candlelight, Song Feng made a memorial, and then asked Chen Ju beside him, Zhang Cheng: "What do you think?"
Zhang Cheng said: "Your Majesty, since you have been cautious in serving as a minister of rituals, you have been embezzled by Hanlin Academy, Ministry of War, and Kedao, and it has long been the same as before."
Zhang Cheng said again: "The rituals of the six ministries are highly valued and light, but they are a place to support people."
The emperor sneered: "I ask you, is the power of the Ministry of Rites less important? Zhang Cheng, have you been rewarded again recently?"
"Panpa Chen, why don't you speak?"
Chen Ju said: "Your Majesty, I will obey your order."
The emperor said, "These three people are not in line with my wishes. Chen Ju, what if I specially ordered people to be hired?"
Chen Ju was shocked and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty must not be done. In the early years of Jiajing, Emperor Shizong specially ordered Xi Shu to use Nanjing Minister of War Xi Shu as Minister of Rites. At that time, Xi Shu could not be recommended by the court and used it. Ministers handed over the seal to slander it. In the end, Xi Shu had to resign from the sage."
The emperor disagreed and said, "But what happened in the end? Didn't Xi Shu still enter the cabinet?"
After a pause, the emperor also felt that it was too ridiculous. It was not during the Jiajing period. When he appointed Sun Chengzong with a special order, Li Zhi and the others had already dissatisfied the officials.
Now the twenty-eight officials elected by the court officials were rejected, and the civil servants would not know what would happen if this continued.
The emperor paced back and forth with his hands behind his back for a while, then sat back on the dragon throne and closed his eyes for a moment, then looked at the three names on the memorial and said, "Although I don't want to use him so soon, I have the only way to do it for the present!"
After the emperor made the decision, his face was not unhappy, but he breathed a sigh of relief.
The next day, the new Minister of Rites was appointed...
On a foggy morning in the capital, the officials and gentry had long been accustomed to ordering their servants to be the first to sell the just-published Huangming Times on the way to the morning court.
The first issue of the Huangming Times announced the name of the new Minister of Rites.
As soon as the news came out, the thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty were shocked.
