Shi Kefa's worries unfortunately became a reality, and it didn't take long for the princess of the prison to be sent to the cabinet to agree to the request of Yan Yingyuan, the governor of Jiangxi.

"Yuanfu, how can you agree to this kind of thing, this is not one or two officials, it involves the official position of Jiangxi Province, how can it be child's play!" The elder Gao Hongtu walked to Shi Kefa's duty room angrily and said to Shi Kefa.

"Ziyou, how can I not know the severity of such a big event, I don't agree with this performance at all, it was Wang Ge Lao who approved it without authorization, and I had to send it to the inner palace to ask the princess of the prison country to decide." Shi Kefa also said aggrieved.

“……“

Gao Hongtu was also dumbfounded, he also knew Shi Kefa's helplessness, although the cabinet has great power and has the power to deal with state affairs, how can it replace the imperial power in major matters related to the country? And the relationship between the princess of Jianguo and Chen Yue, the king of Qi, is well known, and it is understandable to approve this matter.

"Yuanfu, this is not good, the imperial examination is the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, why do my generation of scholars study hard? If anyone can be an official, what use do you need for us people? If it spreads, it will make the world in an uproar! This letter must not be approved! “

"What if not? Could it be that our cabinet will oppose the will of the princess of the prison kingdom together? Don't forget that there are also Lu Zhenfei and Wang Yin, they will definitely not be with us! Shi Kefa frowned.

"Of course, our cabinet can't oppose the princess of the prison country, but don't forget that there are still six branches to do, and they will definitely not let such a ridiculous will be issued!" Gao Hongtu sneered.

In the Ming Dynasty, there are six departments to give things, although they are all minor officials of the seventh grade, but they have the right to supervise the six departments to refute the holy decree, although the officials are small but heavy. If Yan Yingyuan's performance is seen by the six branches, he will definitely not let it go, Gao Hongtu has absolute confidence in this, because Yan Yingyuan's performance has damaged the interests of all civil officials!

Sure enough, in the first time after the inscription was sparse, the six subjects were in turmoil.

"Yan Yingyuan was born as a small official, and it is just a matter of fate to be appointed as a feudal official, and he is really bold to try to change the official position of the Ming Dynasty!" Xiong Rulin said angrily in the matter.

"With the officials of the prefecture and county, Yan Yingyuan could not come up with this kind of idea, and he didn't dare to act so recklessly, most of it came from the intention of the King of Qi." Chen Zilong analyzed the matter in the military department, "The king of Qi is not from the imperial examination, and it is understandable if he doesn't understand my official position in the Ming Dynasty, but this matter cannot be obeyed by his reckless actions, and we should exercise the right to refute it!" ”

"Yes, refutation, how can such a ridiculous recital be allowed to pass!"

……

Qi Wangfu

"The cabinet is helpless, who would have thought that the six departments would stick a rod sideways, who would give them so much courage to dare to go against my Qi Palace!" Shi Gujun, the head of the Qi Palace, snorted angrily.

"It's too simple for us to think, the use of officials as government and county officials has touched the interests of all civilian officials, and they will definitely not let this matter pass smoothly." Wang Yin smiled bitterly. Now Wang Yin has almost become the enemy of civil officials, and many officials regard him as the lackey of Chen Yue, the king of Qi, and even if they meet on the other side, they disdain to leave, and some people even spit on the ground.

"Hmph, go against us, these things are really bold, you can go and tell the princess, let's let them refute it, after three times, they will know that the will of the princess of the prison country is unshakable, and then they will have to take the blame and resign. When the time comes, the people who will replace us should be in the middle of the matter, and some of them are civil officials who have taken refuge in our Qi Palace. Gu Junen said disdainfully.

According to the rules of the imperial court, if the emperor still insists on issuing an edict to the emperor who refutes the emperor's will three times in a row, they will have to resign, after all, this world is the world of the Zhu family, and the imperial power is greater than the sky!

Wang Yin smiled bitterly and didn't speak, so it could only be so.

Chen Yue pondered for a while, but shook his head, "You can't do this, it will increase the confrontation between us and the civil class, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”

"But if this is not the case, Governor Yan's recital will not be able to pass, and we will be tantamount to losing!" Gu Junen said hurriedly.

Chen Yue smiled and shook his head: "Did we lose?" Jiangxi is not controlled by us? The affairs are not carried out according to our steps, and the officials we have appointed are just a document appointed by the imperial court, but the power is not bad at all. ”

"Lord Wang, you must know that Shi Kefa and they will not let these things happen, they will soon appoint new local officials, even if there is no one now, they will also add Enke, recruit a new batch of non-commissioned officers from all over the country, and then send them to Jiangxi to hold important positions." Wang Yin frowned.

"Hehe, they can stumble us in the middle of things, how can we? Yokoyama Gong is in the cabinet, and he cooperates with Lu Ge Lao, and wants to block the convening of Enko, even if he can't stop it, he must control the number of Jinshi selected. At the same time, I will think of letting those officials who have taken refuge in us enter these key departments of the Six Departments and Metropolitan Procuratorate. At that time, it will be possible to delay it for at least a year and a half, and after a year, Jiangxi will already be firmly in our hands, so what can the imperial court send dozens of officials to do? Chen Yue sneered.

After the six branches were refuted, the princess of the prison country did not insist on continuing to issue the edict, which made Shi Kefa sigh out, he was afraid that the princess of the prison country and the six branches would be hard on the matter, which would make the court blatant.

Fortunately, the princess of the prison country can still listen to the advice, and she doesn't blindly come nonsense.

Jiangxi was recovered, and the only remaining western thieves were driven to the complex mountainous area at the junction of Jiangxi and Zhejiang under the leadership of Zhang Nengqi, and Chen Yue, the king of Qi, ordered to send his general Xiao Bing to lead a new army of 50,000 reorganized troops to Huguang to pursue the fleeing Zhang Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan's western thieves.

In Huguang, Jiangxi, which has been ravaged by western thieves, many prefectures and counties are empty, and the imperial court needs to send officials close to the people to take up posts. However, at present, many departments of the imperial court are short of people, taking the six departments as an example, in addition to a few of them, there are only about a dozen or so for the matter, which is equivalent to two or three people in each department, but they have to picket the huge things in charge of the department.

After all, Nanjing is the capital of Liu, although the six departments are complete, but there are many vacancies for other yamen officials, Chongzhen came to Nanjing for two or three years, including last year a imperial examination, recorded more than 200 jinshi, but in the face of the huge empire, these officials are far from enough. Therefore, it has become inevitable to open Enke, after all, according to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, it will take two years for the next opening of the department, which is too long.

However, Enke is not the norm, when to open it, how many jinshi to record, these are very troublesome. In the cabinet, Wang Yin and Lu Zhenfei also disagreed with Shi Kefa on this issue from time to time, causing the matter to drag on for a month before it was finally decided.
