One thousand three hundred seventy-six chapters dream of the sun and the moon by boat(1/3)
After the edict of dismissal and re-referral was issued.
The emperor issued an edict to severely denounce it, and accused the Ministry of Personnel of "exposedly being a private person" on the grounds that the seven people were promoted, and the Ministry of Personnel was accused of being "exposedly accusing himself of private affairs" and demoted Gu Xiancheng to the outside world on the grounds that he had been promoted to the position of the seven people.
First, Chen Younian, the Minister of Personnel, submitted a memorial to plead for Gu Xiancheng. Then, Lu Mingsu, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Lu Zhongli, and He Qiaoyuan, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, submitted a memorial to rescue Gu Xiancheng.
Gu Xiancheng also submitted a memorial to defend himself... The Ministry of Personnel's Chief Minister is not a person who cannot live in a serious place. Since he is a person who is a serious place, he cannot doubt the person who is a person who is a serious place. He is afraid of forming a clique and blocked his own efforts and has no time to save himself. Then the Chief Minister begins with his improper person, which is the crime of the minister.
However, Gu Xiancheng submitted a memorial and his colleagues to rescue him, but the emperor regarded it as a clique for personal gain. He expelled Gu Xiancheng for the people and added a sentence to the edict, "Never hire."
The Minister of Personnel Huofang.
Chen Younian sat in the hall and drank with Master Zhou.
Master Zhou saw that Chen Younian's face was full of depression, and couldn't help but comfort him: "Dongweng, Uncle Gu's departure is also his own reason. You don't have to worry too much."
Chen Younian shook his head and said, "Uncle Gu Shizhi can be called a temporary talent... It's a pity that I can't accommodate anything."
"Master, why did you say this?"
Chen Younian said: "Do you know that the order for dismissal was coming? Uncle Gu laughed at his colleagues with his side and said, "It's a huge problem to be able to make a decision on the temple, how can you get the results of a sentence in the forest? He will follow the example of Lin Houguan back to Donglin Academy to give lectures."
"Oh? Uncle Gu actually said this?"
Chen Younian nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Gu's words are heart-blame words. I was scolded and I had to get involved with Officer Lin Hou. Do you have to let neither of them go back to the court?"
Master Zhou said, "This may be the dispute between Yuliang! Without the Officer of Marquis Lin, Gu Shushi's talent, he can be regarded as the leader of the world's scholars. But with the Officer of Marquis Lin, he can only be ranked second!"
Chen Younian smiled and raised his head and whispered in a sip of wine.
"Brother Zhou, you and I have known each other for 30 years. Since I was the head of the Ministry of Justice, you have been by my side. You can make decisions on many things for me, and you have done a good job. This time you have to help me and think about how to draw up the cabinet ministers for me, neither against the will of the superiors nor let down all officials!"
Facing Chen Younian's trust, Master Zhou was a little moved: "Master, I will make a bold decision in this way. Now there is a vacant vacant in the Wenxuan Department. Your Majesty's intention is to ask Dongweng to make the decision alone."
"From the holy intention, foreign ministers cannot be selected, and retired ministers cannot be selected, so there are only so many ministers who can be promoted. After counting below, either they lack qualifications or prestige. If this continues, they will probably be a substitute."
Chen Younian nodded and said with a sip of wine: "In the past, the Ministry of Personnel recommended it again. Although this dynasty said that it would not enter the cabinet unless it was Hanlin, it was not written down. However, after this decree, the Ministry of Personnel was able to serve as an official and even elect foreign ministers. The power of the Ministry of Personnel began from this. In the future, it was suspected that it would be a clique. What is the use of asking me to be a minister of the Ministry of Personnel?"
Master Zhou hurriedly said, "Dongweng, don't say that."
"As it still, you can make an idea for me."
Master Zhou stood up and clenched his beard and paced for a while, then walked to the desk and picked up a pen and wrote a name on the paper, then handed it to Chen Younian and said, "Master, this time, how about you put this person in the court?"
Chen Younian saw it and changed color slightly and said, "Dongweng, this person?"
Master Zhou asked: "Dongweng, isn't he a Hanlin family? He is also the current Minister of Rites."
Chen Younian said: "It's inappropriate. Uncle Gu strongly opposes this person being selected. If I included his name, I'm afraid I'll bear the reputation of a Shang, and I won't be able to raise my head from now on."
Master Zhou smiled and said, "Then add another name."
Master Zhou added another name to the note.
"Dongweng, this man is also from a Hanlin family and has served as the Minister of Rites."
Chen Younian's face was a little relieved, but hesitated and said: "But... Your Majesty's previous decree is that all officials who retire must not be recommended!"
Master Zhou smiled and said, "Your Majesty said that it was Wang Shanyin. He was a minister who retired, so he was a minister who was not appointing the ministers. This minister who retired was not a minister who retired, and it was not a minister who retired. As for this person who retired, but had not served as a minister, what's wrong?"
Chen Younian pondered for a moment, then said, "Although that's the case, I originally discussed with Uncle Gu, and I also thought that it belonged to him, but Uncle Gu insisted on opposing it, but now it is different from the past. If it causes the holy anger again..."
Master Zhou smiled and said, "Dongweng was still angry about the infringement of the power of the Ministry of Personnel, so these two people must recommend them together. The former was recommended by Wang Taicang, while the latter... was derived from the public opinion of the world! As for how to choose, it depends on Your Majesty!"
Chen Younian smiled and said, "Well, no matter who joins the cabinet, this favor can be used for the rest of his life!"
Master Zhou pondered for a moment and said, "It's better to think about it carefully. It's not only human favors, but also the Shilin public opinion will stand on the side of the master!"
Five days later, the left door of the palace was pushed back to the cabinet ministers.
The weather is not beautiful this day and is full of haze.
There was a heavy flood in Shandong and Henan, causing floods. After this severe drought, it encountered floods again, which could be said to be raining all night long. People in these two provinces lived a very difficult life.
The south was not peaceful, and Wang Zijian raised many people to revolt in Nanzhili.
Now the officials gathered together in groups of three to two to discuss. The people in Henan and Shandong were affected by disasters, and the uprising of farmers in the south could not be on the surface of the officials' discussions for a while.
People were affected by disasters and peasant uprisings were common for court officials. This was common, but the court recommended the prime minister but did not.
Lin Cai and Xiao Liangyou are still chatting and talking in places where no one pays attention.
"All the court officials complained about the emperor's previous rebuttals, but no one cared about the flood in Henan and the chaos in the south. The court has come to this..." Xiao Liangyou shook his head.
Lin Cai had experienced so many things, and his mood was different: "The prime minister was less than ten thousand people, and how could he regard the glory and wealth of the court officials involved? As for the people... who can and who dares to speak for them?"
While they were talking, everyone looked at him and saw Luo Wan, the Minister of Rites, who had arrived in a big red robe, and the man was huddled in a big red robe. The man was very loud.
When Qingliu officials saw Luo Wanhua coming, they looked out of sight.
The more they hated Wang Xijue in the past, the more they hated Luo Wanhua today. However, everyone understands that as the current Minister of Rites, Luo Wanhua, there are some disciples and former officials under his command. If you don’t go to please, you will be welcomed by someone.
Moreover, when it comes to the court to promote the cabinet ministers, the Minister of Rites has always been the first candidate for the prime minister, so last time, Gu Xiancheng tried every means to exclude Luo Wanhua from the Ministry of Personnel's recommendation.
After Luo Wanhua stood still, he chatted and laughed with the surrounding officials, which was extremely eye-catching. This time, there were many people in the court who wanted to be his. Judging from his confident and calm smile, he seemed confident.
Xiao Liangyou and Lin Cai had no good feelings for Luo Wanhua, but he also had no bad feelings.
Although Qingliu criticized Wang Xijue and Luo Wanhua, they understood that no one in power said that? How much was said in the audience? If they were talking about it, they accused the ruler of gaining public support. In fact, how much would it be if they came to power?
At this time, the sky became more and more gloomy, and it was about to rain heavily. If this continued, I am afraid that the officials would be drenched in the fallen officials before the court could push them.
While thinking about it carefully, Chen Younian, the Minister of Personnel, spoke... The court recommendation began.
I also felt that the weather was not good and it was about to rain, so the Ministry of Personnel also shortened many steps to follow the process.
He was not allowed to be appointed. As for the list of officials, Zhao Shenlu, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, read the officials' resumes and names one by one.
First served as Minister of Rites Lin Yanchao...
When Lin Cai heard this name, Xiao Liang's expression was relaxed and his eyes were full of hope. However, Lin Yanchao was only one of the nine officials mentioned by the Ministry of Personnel, and he was one of them.
On the 22nd year of Wanli, Lin Yanchao's name entered the ranks of the cabinet ministers for the first time.
At this time, the sky was still gloomy, and I was extremely depressed.
But when Zhao Shenlu continued to say, "The current Minister of Rites Luo Wanhua..."
As soon as he finished speaking, an official walked up to the Quezuo Gate and went down the steps.
Everyone was shocked when this change came into being. Who was so disgraceful? When looking at the other party, it was not someone else but Luo Wanhua, the Minister of Rites.
Luo Wanhua is not a minor minister, and he will never rashly act such a traitor.
"Shao Zai is disturbing!" Luo Wanhua bowed to Zhao Shenlu.
Zhao Shenlu quickly returned the greeting. He glanced at Chen Younian, and then said, "Brother Da Zong, can you please let me go?"
But when Luo Wanhua saw him, he said, "Shao Zai, Luo is going to withdraw from this court push!"
"What does Da Zongbo mean?"
Chen Younian, Zhao Shenlu and other ministers of the Ministry of Personnel moved slightly.
Luo Wanhua smiled calmly, looked around and said loudly: "Luo is going to withdraw from this push!"
The officials under Quezuo's sect all heard Luo Wanhua's words clearly and looked in disbelief.
After being surprised, Xiao Liang looked at Luo Wanhua on the steps.
As the top scholar, Luo Wanhua can be regarded as a talented person, but he has not attached power for many years and has been suppressed. His demeanor can be described as arrogant and lofty.
"I am ashamed of you!" Luo Wanhua bowed and left with great strides.
The officials looked at his arrogant back and didn't know what to do for a moment.
Luo Wanhua was the top scorer in the second year of Longqing, and was the same year as Zhao Zhigao.
Tao Qianbian, a Taoyan man who was admitted to the same subject as Luo Wanhua, was also a talented man. After Luo Wanhua was selected as the first place, the people at that time laughed and said, "Changbian is not as good as Wanhua."
When Zhang Juzheng was the chief assistant, Luo Wanhua refused to sell his face many times. His servant You Qi asked Luo Wanhua to make a record, but was scolded by Luo Wanhua.
Luo Wanhua became a research examiner, and Zhang Juzheng ordered him to be polite and compatible with his son, but was rejected by Luo Wanhua.
Therefore, Zhang Juzheng's position has been in power for ten years, and Luo Wanhua has never been promoted.
The emperor did not set up a throne, and Luo Wanhua wrote a memorial and made a frank statement, and later demoted to Nanjing.
Some people seek wealth and honor throughout their lives but cannot get it, while others regard it as a waste of shoes!
After Luo Wanhua left, many courtiers who had originally opposed him bowed to his far away back.
Xiao Liangyou and Lin Cai bowed silently.
But some people think that Luo Wanhua was a willful act. It was because Gu Xiancheng did not list him among the court officials before when he promoted him, so he was angry and looked disdainful and left in anger during this court discussion.
Many years later, someone remembered this incident and said that Luo Wanhua was to avoid someone and achieve his position.
But no matter what, Luo Wanhua resigned and returned to his hometown without explaining this matter.
After Luo Wanhua left, Que Zuomen continued to push the court.
The sky above the Forbidden City is changing, and the rainstorm falls in a blink of an eye!
"Now there are only eight officials who can be appointed. The princes only need to elect two of them, and they are the words "right" and "accompaniment" under their names." Chen Younian glanced at the sky and spoke.
