Chapter 584: The clique has become (Part 2)

Han Fu, the famous right censor, voted for Liu Jin.

Although at first, some people thought that Han Fu was walking in Liu Jin's private residence in Shajia Hutong because he was grateful to Liu Jin for speaking for him, so he came to thank him. However, when Han Fu came to the door every day, he became a regular guest of the Liu family in one fell swoop, and no one doubted this. Not only that, Han Fu repeatedly announced that he was in prison, and his old servants asked his colleagues and friends everywhere for no way, but Liu Jin spoke for him righteously, which caused an uproar for a while. In addition to those who hoped to be promoted and made a fortune, many depressed and unsuccessful Beijing officials came to Liu's house to ask for a visit. When they found that the Sili Superintendent, Eunuch Liu, who was deeply hated by others, was not only illiterate, but also quite knowledgeable, and was even more respectful to others. For a time, the alley in front of the Liu family was more than three times more lively than before.

Faced with such a situation, Li Dongyang was a little unexpected. He led Wenyuan for decades and was the oldest minister. His disciples and relatives were all over the court, but this time he remained as the chief minister was not worthy of everyone's wishes, but had to do it. In just a few months, he repeatedly wrote a letter to resign and retire, but it was always inaccurate. When rumors even brought Han Fu's imprisonment and no one to rescue him to Li Mengyang, public opinion gradually became a little unbalanced, and even some disciples were secretly talking about it, he finally felt the matter was serious.

Liu Jin finally successfully recruited a group of truly useful talents through Han Fu's affairs; and Xu Xun, not to mention, was well-off, all three generations of old, middle-aged and young under his command. These two gangs were already full of wings. If he still relied on his former foundation, he would not even be a prime minister who would be a mixed-rat! He didn't even need to guess the person who caused the public opinion storm. It was undoubtedly Jiao Fang, and only this two-faced guy would be so anxious to take advantage of this to take the lead!

That night, he did not rest early, but sat in the study for a long time. Until the sound came from outside, he saw his wife Mrs. Zhu personally holding a plate in, he stood up and said, "It's so late, just let the lady clean up, why bother to stay so late?"

"The master hasn't even been to bed, so how can I sleep alone?"

Although Mrs. Zhu was not in foreign affairs at ease, how could she not see the entanglement between her husband's eyebrows? (") After seeing the porridge and vegetables, Li Dongyang just took a few bites absent-mindedly. She asked with concern: "If you have any depression in your heart, why not ask someone to discuss it? It is not a solution to sit alone and sit with a frown. I heard that the Liu House in Shajia Hutong is full of guests every night, and the Xing'an Bo Mansion in Wu'an Hou Hutong is often in and out. In contrast, the master doesn't have much time at home, and even if there are, it is a poetry society and literary society. Although he supports his juniors, he always has fewer arms to discuss. In the past, there was..."

Mrs. Zhu said, omitting Liu Jian and Xie Qian's name, and then said with concern: "The master must have someone who relies on discussion in the ministry. You are not saying that Master Wang is honest and can he..."

"Wang Shouxi is a man with a pure and honest person, and he is not strong enough to be incompatible with my personality. Besides, I don't have a deep relationship with him. I can still work together in the cabinet to deal with Jiao Fang and Liu Jin, but I can still work together, but the words in my heart are really inconvenient to tell him... Alas, if Yang Sui'an could have returned to Beijing to serve as the Ministry of War earlier, maybe I could have discussed more people."

Seeing Li Dongyang saying this, Mrs. Zhu shook her head and said thoughtfully: "Without this Yang, there may not be no Yang. I remember that the master had mentioned that Grand Secretary Yang from Zuo Chunfang who was also in the East Palace. He had come to his house several times. I have seen him from afar. He looked calm and steady, had outstanding etiquette, and heard that his articles and knowledge were also first-class. What's more important is that he was still young and strong, and he had taught the emperor again."

Yang Tinghe?

Li Dongyang suddenly remembered that Yang Tinghe was the deputy examiner of the previous subject, and Jiao Fang's son Jiao Huangzhong failed the exam, which was also in the hands of Yang Tinghe. Although he taught in the East Palace in the past, he was still different from the Japanese lecturers like Yang Tinghe. He didn't have much contact with each other, but after all, they were all famous for their young prodigy. He also recommended Yang Tinghe in front of Emperor Hongzhi. "At this moment, he put down the chopsticks in his hand, pondered for a long time before looking up and looking up at his wife with admiration.

"Madam is really a dreamer."

"Where, I'm just talking nonsense about my personal name. The master is confused by the authorities, and I may not be the bystander." Seeing that Li Dongyang's eyebrows were stretched a little more, Mrs. Zhu also breathed a sigh of relief. "As for the attacks outside, the Qing Dynasty will be clear. Master, please relax. No one can tell everyone, let alone the master is the chief minister of the cabinet? Now the two parties have become a trend. If you are missing, I'm afraid that in the blink of an eye, the head of the tripod will be sharp. How can the tripod be achieved?"

"Dingmao... Alas, when Xu Xun protected me in front of the emperor, I knew that this was thankless to the clique of the chief minister, and it was not as free and easy as Liu Hui'an and Xie Muzhai who retired and returned home. But what I need to do in this way is to temper the steel into a soft finger. Even if I try to do it, I am now exhausted. When Xu Xun entered the capital, I never thought that people would be what they are now! Look, Liu Jin was in charge of the ranks and rituals, and was the head of the internal officials; I was the head of the cabinet and the head of civil officials. But he was just an earl, and he was in charge of the left and right offices of the 12th Regiment Battalion and the front garrison of the government army with one hand, and he was far from being the leader of the military officials, but he was still so powerful. He has really been a young man since ancient times!"

Seeing that Li Dongyang's mood had obviously improved a lot, Mrs. Zhu couldn't help but joke: "Didn't the master say that he didn't see that he was cunning? Why did he change his statement now? The Taoist has been a teenager since ancient times?"

After being caught by his wife for a moment, Li Dongyang couldn't help laughing in silence. He was originally a person with a firm mind. After his wife comforted her, he naturally cheered up. After using the porridge, he immediately smiled and said, "Anyway, among the three, I am the oldest, and I will not lose to them! Isn't it just a matter of being with the slime? I have been in the cabinet for many years, and I have been arbitrary and Muzhai is impatient. I have been there with the slime. Now I have to be patient and have a good time!"

"I knew the master would say that. If everyone saw that things were not harmonious and gave up, all the major issues in the world would be the one who was a traitor?" Mrs. Zhu smiled and took away the dishes and carried them out. She suddenly turned around and said, "The master just said that Pingbei Bo was a heroic young man since ancient times, and he obviously took him seriously. It's not that I am now a hindsight. I remember that Liu Ge Lao Xie Lao was too swearing up, even though he was too jealous. He would rather bear the white-headed man than bully the young man poor. Although this is biased, it still makes sense."

Li Dongyang pondered thoughtfully when he heard this. He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until Mrs. Zhu went out. He heard that Liu Jin was interested in reforming the court and became a law, so he was eager to summon capable personnel to serve as front pawns. After all, he, the chief minister of the cabinet, was not Liu Jin's party, and he didn't know the slightest news. The previous dozen reforms were already amazing enough. If he had to do something more intense this time, if he had slower reactions, he might have had more trouble.

His wife is right, she would rather bear the white-headed man than bully the young man. But now Jiao Fang is pushing him so urgently. If he leans against Xu Xun a little, I am afraid that Liu Jin will react more! His reputation will be broken. At this moment, he still has to meet Liu Jin first!

For Xu Xun, who was well-informed, Li Dongyang met Liu Jin in a teahouse, and the two of them secretly discussed the matter for a whole hour, which naturally came to his ears in a moment. Although they didn't know what they were talking about, when the Wangri Dynasty on December 15th, Han Fu was appointed as the right deputy censor to take the grain storage of Susong, and set the official examination and seven regulations, he naturally understood that Li Dongyang and Liu Jin, who did not speak at the court meeting, reached a compromise.

Xu Xun has a deep understanding of Zhang Juzheng's test method - after all, the performance appraisal and so on in modern enterprises are actually similar to this, but even those systems are not as strict as the test method. What he sent to Zhang Wenmian was not the final draft, but was just a relatively rough framework. It was just to ask the Six Ministry Censorate to list the matters that officials should do in a year and evaluate them one by one at the end of the year.

The biggest loophole in this is that if you fail to complete it, it is a penalty, and it is not a demotion, but a penalty, but a penalty, but it does not mention how to reward it. He knew very well that Liu Jin, who hoped to win people's hearts by relying on generous rewards at will and heavy punishments to suppress civil servants, would not feel any inconvenience even if he noticed the loophole he deliberately exposed.

If rewards and punishments are carried out according to the rules, what will Liu Jin use to show kindness and establish authority?

As for the incredible new policies that made the widow remarry and other incredible things, he knew that it must be Liu Jin who deceived Zhu Houzhao, who was not concerned about these trivial matters. Although he felt helpless, he just let it go. However, when Lin Han angrily came to the door with Zhang Fuhua that night, Xu Xun placed a more detailed note in front of the two.

Lin Han is also an old Ministry of Personnel. At this moment, after looking at this article, his eyes immediately condensed, and he immediately saw the pros and cons of it. He couldn't help but look up and asked, "Liu Jin just introduced this new policy today, you are..."

"I have known his Chen for a long time. I can't stop him. I have to think of a way on that basis." Xu Xun would never say that Chen was the condom he gave Zhang Wenmian. He paused and smiled, "As for this, after his test method has caused countless officials to suffer, we should give them some sweetness! Only with punishment and reward can we have hope. The former plan of Beijing inspection was too relaxed, so we should also make the officials tighten. Otherwise, Lord Lin and Zhang should also know the consequences of the corruption of the administration! Lord Lin has been in charge of the Ministry of Personnel for several months. We should know that it seems to be a peaceful and prosperous era now, but internal and external troubles are already significant!"

Zhang Fuhua frowned when he heard this: "But the more this happens, the less we can't be eager for quick success or instant benefits."

"Since it's hard to get back, why not let someone set fire first? If you don't break it, you won't set it up, and then you will set it up. It's a risk, but it's also an opportunity!" Speaking of this, Xu Xun looked at the two bigwigs who came together today with a smile, "With the old qualifications of both, let's see what's the shortcomings of this Chen, and pick up the voids for me."
