Chapter 1132: Minister
Originally, the important information of the 800-mile expedited was not allowed to be seen by ordinary people, and the news was not allowed to leak, but the good news was different, as the so-called good things were not afraid to spread, and the big victory was naturally to be publicized, so the post envoy who was responsible for reporting the victory would shout the good news every time he entered a post station, or every time he passed through a city, XX fought a big victory or something, the more people knew, the better.
Therefore, the little yellow door holding the document of the victory ran into the Wenhua Palace, and immediately shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty, great victory, great victory, the Duke of Yasukuni rushed to report the victory in 800 miles, and defeated 100,000 cavalry yesterday and beheaded more than 25,000 ranks." ”
In an instant, with a coax, the entire Wenhua Hall was boiling, and this kid Jiajing even bounced up like a slingshot on his buttocks, his face was red with excitement, and he shouted urgently: "Where is the good news, come up quickly." ”
Xiao Huangmen quickly came to the throne and knelt down, and presented Xu Jin's good news with both hands, and Chang Huaien, the eunuch who was in charge of the celebrant and the palm seal, hurriedly stepped forward to take the good news, and cautiously turned to the imperial case.
Jiajing took the good news, and couldn't wait to open it to take a look, the handsome face suddenly turned even redder, as if he was drunk, and then raised his eyebrows to the sky and laughed: "Xu Qing is really my blessed general, and I am the pillar of the Ming Dynasty, the Jedi counterattacked, won more with less, defeated my 100,000 army in one battle, and beheaded 25,672 thousand, great victory, really great victory, deserve to be rewarded, be rewarded!" ”
All the ministers in the Wenhua Hall couldn't help but marvel, Xu Changsheng really deserves to be Xu Changsheng, this name is really not called in vain, in this desperate situation, he can turn defeat into victory, and achieve such impressive results, he is really a god!
The official Shangshu Fang Xianfu's eyes rolled, and he knelt on the ground and shouted: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, my emperor is victorious!" ”
I'll go, this old fox is really neat and sharp, and he took the lead again, and all the ministers hurriedly knelt down and shouted: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, my emperor is victorious." ”
Jiajing, this kid was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and said with a smile: "You are all in peace." ”
When the ministers stood up, Jiajing's eyes looked at Liao Ji, the second assistant of the cabinet, with mockery, who was still kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to get up, his old face was red and white, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
Jiajing was extremely happy in his heart, old man Liao, you should continue to gloat for me, continue to gloat, and let me write a letter to me to ask for peace, phew!
This slap in the face came too quickly like a tornado, Liao Ji gloated in Jiajing's face not long ago, but Xu Jin's good news came immediately, and he slapped Liao Ge Lao firmly, and Liao Ge Lao's old face was swollen.
The eyes of all the ministers were on Liao Ji, mocking, gloating, sympathizing, and sighing, with different expressions. Everyone understands that Liao Ge Lao is done, when he opposed the Northern Expedition before, the emperor was very dissatisfied with Liao Ji, if it weren't for the lack of manpower in the cabinet, Liao Ge Lao would probably have gone home with Shoufu Jin Xianmin to plant sweet potatoes, this time he dared to gloat and slap the emperor's face, and the most terrible thing was that he was slapped in the face by Xu Jin's good news in the end.
This time, Liao Ge is afraid that he will not be able to protect the black yarn, at least Jin Xianmin is still a minister in the status of a minister, and he will go home to plant sweet potatoes in a beautiful manner, and his retirement treatment will not be less, and Liao Ji will be miserable!
"Liao Ji, as an auxiliary minister of the cabinet, you don't want to serve the country, but you gloat when you lose on the front line, you bewitch the public, and the blow shakes the morale of our army, and you have no king, which is really unforgivable!" Jiajing said sharply.
Liao Ji's face was like ashes, and he trembled even more, thinking that he was in a catastrophe today, but he heard Jiajing's words and said coldly: "But I think that you have been an official in the court for decades, and you have no merit and hard work. ”
Liao Ji suddenly collapsed to the ground, studying hard in the cold window, being an official for decades, and now once he returned to before the liberation, the bitterness was even more uncomfortable than killing his head.
Next, without Jiajing's orders, the guards in front of the palace stepped forward to take off Liao Ji's black yarn, took off the official uniform, and then set it up.
The secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu Fang Xianfu was overjoyed in his heart, and now that the second assistant Liao Ji has also been kicked out, the cabinet is only left with Jia Yong and Wang Zhan, who has recently entered the cabinet, and Wang Zan is his own person, hehe, entering the cabinet is just around the corner.
Jiajing reduced Liao Ji to the people, and finally let out a bad breath, only to feel refreshed, and said loudly: "Xu Qing defeated my 100,000 army, the grain route was also restored, and the situation in the Northern Expedition was very good. ”
"The emperor is wise!" The ministers hurriedly echoed in unison.
If Jiajing first ascended the throne, it was the peak moment of the strength of the civil official group, then now Jiajing has completely regained the initiative and become a real thunderous emperor, even the cabinet ministers say that they will be cut down, of course, the premise is that the cabinet minister is guilty, if the cabinet minister is dismissed for no reason, it is estimated that the civil officials will still fight Jiajing to the end.
Jiajing nodded with satisfaction, and said to Jia Yong, the first assistant of the cabinet: "I bother Jia Qing's family to draft the decree on my behalf, and it will be completed for me to see within today." ”
Jia Yong, the old man of the clay sculpture pavilion, hurriedly went out to receive the order, and said: "Your Majesty, now that the cabinet affairs are heavy, the old ministers are lacking in skills, so I implore the emperor to supplement the cabinet ministers." ”
Jiajing nodded and said, "Quasi-play, Jia Qing's family can have a suitable candidate." ”
According to the usual practice, the supplementary cabinet ministers must first consult the cabinet ministers, and then carry out the court recommendation after the selection of the ministers, and finally the nod of the emperor.
Jia Yong hesitated for a moment and said, "The minister recommends Master Xia Yanxia, a scholar of Hanlin." ”
Xia Yan couldn't help but show a hint of excitement, as the so-called soldiers who don't want to be generals are not good soldiers, cabinet ministers represent the highest honor of civilian officials, so joining the cabinet auxiliary government is the dream goal of most civilian officials, Xia Yan is naturally no exception, he is ambitious, and he also wants to enter the cabinet to implement his own governance philosophy.
Jiajing glanced at Xia Yan, who was sparsely eyebrowed, and nodded with satisfaction, Jiajing has always had a very good impression of Xia Yan, especially Xia Yan's loud voice, clear words, a Ming official accent is a correct tone, never speaking hometown dialect, plus Xia Yan is erudite and eloquent, so Jiajing likes Xia Yan's banquet very much, and he must be there every time.
When Fang Xianfu saw Jiajing's expression, he couldn't help but be secretly anxious in his heart, he thought it would be his turn this time, but he didn't expect to kill Xia Yan halfway, Jia Yong, the old horseman, even promoted Xia Yan and didn't raise his own official.
At this time, Wen Jiajing said: "I want to supplement the two cabinet ministers and auxiliary ministers, Xia Qing's family is counted as one, do you have other suitable candidates?" ”
Wang Zhan, who was newly admitted to the cabinet, immediately said: "Your Majesty, the minister recommended Fang Shuxian, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Lord Fang has been an official in the court for many years, and he has rich experience in governance, so he is the best candidate. ”
Fang Xianfu was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly pretended to go out of class and humbly excused himself a few words. Many ministers in the palace showed disdain, before Wang Zan entered the cabinet was recommended by Fang Xianfu, and now Wang Zan in turn recommended Fang Xianfu to enter the cabinet, the two are really reciprocating, and the gifts are still exchanged!
Jiajing continued to ask noncommittally: "Do you have other suitable candidates, and you can put them forward together." ”
Fang Xianfu couldn't help but feel cold when he heard this, it seemed that the emperor didn't mean to belong to him, thinking about it carefully, Fang Xianfu vaguely understood the reason, and couldn't help but be annoyed. Obviously, Wang Zan was recommended to join the cabinet by himself, and now Wang Zan is pulling himself into the cabinet in turn, there is a suspicion of forming a gang, and the emperor is not a fool, how could he agree.
Fang Xianfu wanted to understand the reason, he really regretted it, alas, he knew that he shouldn't have listened to Zhang Chan in the first place, and recommended Wang Chan to enter the cabinet, it was really for nothing to make wedding clothes for others, it seems that as long as Wang Zan is in the cabinet for a day, he will not be able to enter the cabinet for a day.
Fang Xianfu's guess is really good, Jiajing, this kid is smart, if the cabinet minister is ironclad, it will inevitably hinder his imperial power, how can it be possible for two people to recommend each other to the cabinet!
As a result, the result of the final court push was that Xia Yan, a scholar of Hanlin University, was added to the cabinet, served as a scholar of Dongge University, and continued to be in charge of the affairs of the Hanlin Academy. Zhai Luan, the left attendant of the ministry, entered the cabinet and served as a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and continued to serve as the left attendant of the ministry.
It was because the agency was too smart that Fang Xianfu sharpened his head and wanted to enter the cabinet, but he couldn't get in, depressed!
