And the remaining two people can't be regarded as orthodox ministers, because Wang Chengen and Cao Huachun are both eunuchs, although the actual power of Wang Chengen is far greater than that of the ministers, and even greater than the rights of the original ministers of the court! But after all, he is a eunuch, and eunuchs can't directly interfere in politics, and this empty cabinet, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen still has to find someone to fill it.

Liu Hongxun, a scholar, was dismissed, and the emperor ordered his courtiers to recommend a replacement.

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen scanned the ministers, who dared to look at the emperor? Since the emperor's successive Beijing inspection plans, although the second time is far less large than the first time, the investigation is tight, but the date is too close, it is inevitable that everyone will be in danger, who dares to disobey the emperor's will, the current Ming court, has really become the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen's court!

Of course, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen didn't want this result, he wanted to be dictatorial, but he couldn't be so dictatorial that no one would help him! He wanted to reuse the slogan faction headed by Zhou Yanru!

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen held his breath, the most terrible thing in the world is not that someone scolds you by pointing at your nose, nor is it that someone hits you in the face, so blatantly come, you can hide, you can fight back!

The most terrifying thing is the soft knife, this Ming Dynasty is full of such civilian bureaucratic groups, and there are such soft knives everywhere! That's scary! They kill without seeing blood!

"If you don't speak, I will propose a personal candidate, and Zhou Yanru is diligent. Let's talk about it. "Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen's words did not surprise the ministers, and it is one thing not to dare to do anything with the emperor, but the promotion of this cabinet minister is related to the pattern of officialdom. It's about self-interest.

These ministers who were able to enter the court. Which is not over forty or fifty years old. Who hasn't had more than 20 years of experience as an official since he was a child? Of course, they knew that the emperor reluctantly sentenced the cases of Liu Hongxun and Hui Anbo Zhang Qingzhen, and was passive! It wasn't the emperor's intention, as long as all of them were united, there was no big problem with self-preservation! As long as you don't take bribes, it's not a big problem to keep your official position!

Wang Yongguang took the lead in speaking, "Your Majesty, Zhou Yanru is less than forty years old, and he has been an official for a short time. The prestige is not enough to convince the public, if you insist on being promoted, what about other capable ministers? Weichen has offended the saint, and I hope that the emperor will forgive him. ”

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly, he was not angry, this was something he expected, since the last time he was vomited blood by the natural disaster, he paid attention to maintaining his demeanor and relaxing his mind, since he had to be in this position. Since life has put him in this role, any annoyance. It's all useless, it's better to look at some.

Wang's words resonated widely, and the ministers thought that Yanru was not prestigious enough to be included in the list. At that time, there were 11 people recommended in the court, including Wang Yongguang, Qian Qianyi, and Zheng Yiwei.

Zhou Yanru originally didn't even have the qualifications to go to the court, he was able to go to the court because of the emperor's special approval, seeing these old ministers constantly saying in front of him that his prestige and ability were not enough, how did this anger come down? But the person spoke softly, and there was no one to help him speak, so he only felt like he had been pricked by a needle, and he was ashamed of himself!

The emperor did not see Zhou Yanru's name on the list, and he was very suspicious in his heart. But he didn't move.

The promotion of cabinet ministers is a matter of importance, and Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen is not a political officer, of course he knows that things cannot be completely decided by his own words! If you really use such a strong way, it will seem that your city government is not enough, and your gas is insufficient, and it will also backfire! The businessmen can boycott the market, although the officials dare not collectively dismiss the officials, but the collective yang and yin disobey and completely ignore government affairs, which is enough for him Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen to worry about his brains!

Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen needs to rely on his own political skills to balance the matter of entering the cabinet and develop in the direction he needs!

Zhou Yanru was the champion of Wanli in the forty-first year, and he was particularly noticed by Zhu Youzhen, the emperor of Chongzhen. As a result, Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen awarded the official position of the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites. At this time, Zhou Yanru was only 35 years old, but he had a 14-year career as an official eunuch.

But Zhou Yanru's age and prestige are not enough, Wang Yongguang has almost no suspense when he enters the cabinet, at this moment, Zhou Yanru and Qian Qianyi, who of these two people entered the cabinet first, has become the focus of contention between many old ministers and newly promoted ministers in the court, this is not a war between two people!

It is a war between the old and new forces in the imperial court, and it is also a war between the Donglin Party and the Imperial Party! This invisible war, if not handled well, can paralyze this country!

"Let's disperse, let's discuss it here today!" Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen was not satisfied, but he was helpless, things in the world could not be done according to people's will! He also has a lot of involuntary self-help.

In fact, even if Zhou Yanru can be helped into the cabinet, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen will not be too satisfied, he is such a person who will never feel happy, and his happiness is often because of some inexplicable little things.

The courtiers dispersed, and two classes were clearly formed, and among the new forces led by Zhou Yanru, the biggest officials were Wen Tiren and Xue Guoguan!

Although Wen Tiren and Xue Guoguan are both old ministers, their brains are very up-and-coming! On the one hand, the three of them were because they had nothing to do with the eunuch party at the beginning, so the traditional Donglin party people looked down on them, and on the other hand, they were all good at observing words and feelings, good at judging the situation, and recognized who is the main trend now!

Wen Tiren, the word Changqing, the number Yuanqiao. It was the longest cabinet assistant during the reign of Emperor Chongzhen. A native of Nanxun Jili Village, Wucheng (now Huzhou), Zhejiang. The twenty-sixth year of Wanli Jinshi. Scholar of the Ministry of Rites and Scholar of Tokaku University!

Although Wen Tiren and Xue Guoguan are much older than Zhou Yanru, both of them know very well that Zhou Yanru is now popular, and he has always been flattering, and the faces of the three of them have also made many sanctimonious ministers of the Donglin Party very unhappy!

"Hmph, with a character and prestige like yours, you can also enter the cabinet?" Qian Qianyi, who did not get the emperor's approval to enter the cabinet on the spot, is angry, and now that Sun Shenxing has fallen, he has already regarded himself as the banner of the Donglin Party, even if he joined the Imperial Party, but the Donglin Party does not exist as an entity, they do not have a clear party, but this school inheritance is intangible, stored in everyone's ideology!
