On the surface, the current Fujian has been completely controlled by the military and political axe, and Chen Jingyun has become the number one leader in Fujian, but in fact, there are many factions within the Fujian military and political axe, and various contradictions are constantly under the open and secret struggle.

Among them, the military power and Chen Jingyun controlled it single-handedly, and the gentry led by Zheng Zuyin had no hope or confidence to compete with Chen Jingyun for military power, and the financial aspects were also firmly grasped by An Hualin arranged by Chen Jingyun. These two things can be said to be Chen Jingyun's bottom line, naturally they can't be touched by others, let alone Zheng Zuyin, even Lin Wenying's group of senior officers of the former Alliance are mostly arranged in false positions, and the actual military power under his hands is controlled by Chen Jingyun's henchmen.

Chen Jingyun did not let go of military power and financial power, and many factions such as Zheng Zuyin and Lin Wenying put the goal of contention on other rights of the military and political axe, such as the position of the chief and deputy minister of various ministries and other rights.

For example, the Ministry of Supervision, the original chief was Kui Linyang, who was strongly recommended by Zheng Zuyin, but in less than a month, Lin Wenying and others were caught with a lot of tricks, and the amount of corruption and bribes was as high as more than 80,000 yuan. For this reason, Lin Wenying and others found Chen Jingyun overnight and asked Chen Jingyun to remove Kui Linyang from his post.

"Dudu, this kind of thing must not be opened first, today he Kui Linyang can be greedy for ink and bribe 80,000, tomorrow he can be greedy for ink and bribe 800,000, and the day after tomorrow it will be 8 million!" Lin Wenying has recently served as the chief of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and he can be regarded as a high-ranking official, and a group of old league members in Fuzhou are headed by him, so he naturally wants to stand up as soon as this kind of thing happens.

After Chen Jingyun listened to Lin Wenying's story, he was also shocked in his heart. He also knows that there are many officials inside the military and political axe, and he is also well aware of the fact that there are many things that happen when he is greedy and bribery, but the military and political axe has not been created for a long time, the foundation is unstable, and at the same time, there is no effective official team under his own hands, even if they are abolished, most of the officials who are mentioned are also Zheng Zuyin's men. So he turned a blind eye during this time, as long as they didn't hinder their own expansion of the army and control of financial power, Chen Jingyun basically didn't interfere in the internal affairs of the military and political axe.

But today, I heard that even Kui Linyang, the chief of the Ministry of Supervision, one of the chief directors of the Ninth Ministry, has embezzled and accepted bribes, and the amount is as high as more than 80,000 yuan in just one month.

It made him angry!

Chen Jingyun didn't express his position immediately, and he didn't look at Kui Linyang, who was escorted by the guards below and his face was already pale, but set his eyes on Zheng Zuyin.

"Chief Zheng, what do you think about this?"

At this time, Zheng Zuyin's face was not good-looking, and the entire military and political axe knew that Kui Linyang was recommended by him, but he was full of words at the beginning, so he almost didn't say Kui Linyang to the sky. And then it took only a month to be caught, how could this make him not angry.

Looking at Lin Wenying on the side with a sneer on his face, Zheng Zuyin forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a calm voice: "Governor, Kui Linyang, as the chief of the Ministry of Supervision, knows the law and violates the law, Zheng thinks that he should be severely punished, otherwise he will not be able to convince the public!" However, the military and political axe is now hastily created, and it is not appropriate to make it public at this time! ”

Seeing that Zheng Zuyin did not protect his own people as soon as possible, but instead fell into the stone, Lin Wenying on the side was also a little surprised, and Kui Linyang, who was escorted by the guards behind, cried even more: "I was wronged...... Spare your life! ”

Chen Jingyun admired Zheng Zuyin's cheekiness a little, and when others encountered this situation, I am afraid that they would have to admit that their recommendation was inappropriate, so they resigned. And he, Zheng Zuyin, was good, he only said that he would severely punish Kui Linyang, and he didn't show any guilt.

However, now is not the time to turn his face, now Chen Jingyun's prestige in the civilian system of the military and political axe is not strong, and if Zheng Zuyin is rashly pulled down, it will greatly affect the stability of the military and political axe. Taking a step back, even if Zheng Zuyin is pulled down, Chen Jingyun can't find a suitable candidate to support the many complicated civil affairs of the Fujian military and political axe for a while, and the one who takes over is either Zheng Zuyin's henchmen or Lin Wenying's side.

So Chen Jingyun said calmly: "Since the matter is clear, then follow the rules, and deal with it after taking down the guilt." However, it is a matter of military and political prestige, and it is announced that Kui Linyang has resigned due to illness. ”

After listening to his disposition, Qui Linyang below did not continue to cry, but was dragged out by the guards like a dead dog.

Lin Wenying was obviously very satisfied with this takeover, but they took a lot of effort to take the handle of Kui Linyang, and they had been holding back for a while ago, until today they pulled Kui Linyang down in one fell swoop.

Chen Jingyun took a sip of tea and continued: "Now that the head of the Ministry of Supervision is vacant, do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?" ”

Zheng Zuyin didn't open his mouth this time, he was not stupid, he knew that Kui Linyang's crime was caused by Lin Wenying and others, and the governor Chen Jingyun above also watched the play with peace of mind and did not mean to ask himself. Kui Linyang fell, if he continued to ignore the recommender, I am afraid that he would not be able to step down.

Lin Wenying said excitedly: "I recommend Mr. Wei Shengtian!" ”

Wei Shengtian, that is, the commissioner who was sent by Sun Wen to support the Fuzhou Uprising before the uprising, after the success of the Fuzhou Uprising, Wei Shengtian, as an outsider, did not become one of the chiefs of the Nine Ministries, but served as a senior adviser in the Ministry of Military and Political Axe Civil Affairs. Later, after Zheng Zuyin and others and Lin Wenying and others gradually split, Wei Shengtian also walked around with Lin Wenying. Suddenly bringing him up today undoubtedly means that this person has completely come together with Lin Wenying.

Chen Jingyun still didn't say anything, and still said to Zheng Zuyin: "What does Chief Zheng think!" ”

Zheng Zuyin's face remained unchanged and said: "Although Mr. Wei is not from Fujian, he is an old man of the League and the main leader of the uprising, and the qualifications to be the chief of the Ministry of Supervision are enough." ”

Zheng Zuyin changed his words but said: "However, the Ministry of Supervision shoulders the heavy responsibility of supervising officials, and the selection of the chief officer needs to be cautious. ”

Chen Jingyun was a little annoyed by the almost superficial battle between the two of them, and he didn't plan to look at the colors on both sides. After thinking about it for yourself, you began to choose the right person yourself.

So far, there are not many people who belong to Chen Jingyun's faction within the military and political axe, and only one of the nine chiefs of the nine ministries An Hualin is his person, as for the deputy minister, Gao Zeyan, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, has been close to Chen Jingyun recently, and there is an obvious intention to take refuge, this person Chen Jingyun intends to let him nail him to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to balance Zheng Zuyin, and he cannot be easily transferred. In addition, there are several deputy ministers who have openly and secretly surrendered to Chen Jingyun, and there are also quite a few other middle- and high-ranking officials in the military and political axe, but these people are basically not enough to take on the heavy responsibility of the chief of the Ministry of Supervision.

For a while, Chen Jingyun couldn't find a suitable person from his own faction to serve as the head of the Supervision Department.

I thought about it in my heart and eliminated the names that came to my mind one by one. Since you can't find someone from your side to serve it, and you don't want people from Zheng Zuyin and Lin Wenying to serve it, it's better to find a neutral person.

After thinking about it in his heart, he proposed: "What do you think of Han Chenxu, Vice Minister of Justice? ”

Han Chenxu, 40 years old, a native of Fuzhou, studied in the United States in his early years, returned to China to do business after graduation, and later joined the Advisory Council as a member of the Council. However, the Minister General of the Ministry of Justice was recommended by Zheng Zuyin, and he had no real skills, so he supported the main work of the Ministry of Justice. Of course, these are all secondary, and the most important thing is that as far as Chen Jingyun knows, this person has no intention of forming a gang, and he is not close to Zheng Zuyin and others, and he is not familiar with Lin Wenying and others. Even Chen Jingyun has not been here a few times, and he can be regarded as a neutral person.

Chen Jingyun recommended him today, on the one hand, because he liked his talent, and on the other hand, because he liked his neutral attitude.

Lin Wenying saw that Wei Shengtian, whom he recommended, was first denied by Zheng Zuyin, and then by Chen Jingyun, which made his face a little ugly. However, he was not a stupid person, knowing that even if he continued to support Wei Shengtian, it would be impossible to win. Han Chenxu also knew this person, knew that that person was a stone belonging to the pit, smelly and hard, and didn't care about anyone, it couldn't be someone from Zheng Zuyin's side, and it couldn't be someone from Chen Jingyun's side.

Even if you can't get it, then support neutral people, in short, you can't let Zheng Zuyin get better.

After thinking about it like this, Lin Wenying said: "Han Chenxu's talent and surname are enough to take on this responsibility!" ”

Zheng Zuyin did not object to this, and the resignation of Kui Linyang meant that his side lost the position of the Ministry of Supervision. All he cared about was Wei Shengtian, who was recommended by Lin Wenying, and the others didn't care. Immediately, he agreed: "I agree with the Governor!" ”

Chen Jingyun nodded: "That's good!" ”

In this way, the turmoil caused by Kui Linyang this time was calmed down overnight, and there was a small news in the corner of the newspaper the next day: Kui Linyang, the chief of the Ministry of Supervision, was seriously ill and resigned from the post of chief of the Ministry of Supervision, and the position of the chief of the Ministry of Supervision will be transferred by Han Chenxu, vice minister of the Ministry of Justice.

Han Chenxu never thought that he suddenly became a political celebrity with a military and political axe overnight, Zheng Zuyin, Lin Wenying, and even the governor Chen Jingyun all single-handedly recommended him as the chief of the Ministry of Supervision, and before he could react, the news had already been reported, and no one even asked him if he wanted to be the chief of the Ministry of Supervision in this short process.

Han Chenxu is not a person who loves overseas Chinese, although he said that he did not get the news in advance, but when he was officially recommended as the chief of the Ministry of Supervision, he did not resign, but took office on the same day.

Before taking office, he made a special trip to the Governor's Mansion, because he heard that the Governor was the first to propose that he be the head of the Ministry of Supervision, and although he maintained a neutral attitude towards the various factions in Fujian at present, he still had to do some superficial work.

However, after he went to see Chen Jingyun, he talked for two hours before he came out, and as soon as he came out, he went directly to the Ministry of Supervision to take up his post, and as soon as possible, he dismissed and dismissed several important officials of the Ministry of Supervision that Kui Linyang had promoted before, and he did not give Lin Wenying any face, and several people from the revolutionary party also resigned, and in just a few days, the original middle and high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Supervision were gone. Moreover, while vigorously rectifying the internal affairs of the Ministry of Supervision, the Ministry of Supervision under his auspices also formally implemented its most important policy, the supervision of 100 officials, and in just a few days, it successively accused a number of high-ranking military and political officials, which greatly meant to reform the atmosphere of military and political axes.
