Daming Palace, Hanyuan Hall
As Xu Lu, the censor of Zuodu, recommended Qin Ye, all the officials in the palace looked at each other and thought about the reason.
Some officials who didn't know were searching for Qin Ye in their minds, with blank expressions. Most of them had no impression of him. Among the six central departments of the Han Dynasty, there were dozens of officials at the rank of doctor, not to mention a lot of them. Unless they were specialized Not everyone in the Ministry of Personnel, Tianguan'er, knows the resume of every official.
"Qin Ye?"
Emperor Chongping didn't know why, but he felt that the name seemed familiar, and suddenly a light flashed in his mind. Isn't this Jia Ziyu's father-in-law?
It seems that he was in the Ministry of Industry before, and there was also a female Qin family who had just been appointed a royal concubine not long ago. Why is Xu Lu recommending Qin Ye now? Is there something hidden?
It's not that he didn't expect that the two emperors and party members were secretly communicating with each other, giving and receiving privately, but he still knew what Xu Deqing was like.
If Jia Heng begged to be a disciple of Xu Lu, he would have been impeached because of his temperament. But does that mean he has a public spirit?
When Yang Guochang heard this, he was shocked and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, I think this is not possible. This Qin Ye Lun is only in the fifth grade. How can he be promoted to a ministry with more virtue? Mr. Kuang heard that this officer is young He is over sixty years old, his ears are dim and his eyesight is dizzy, and he is also included in this Beijing inspection because of his old age. How can he be responsible for such a big job?"
Xu Lu looked pale, glanced at Yang Guochang coldly, and said quietly: "If I remember correctly, Mr. Yang Ge is already over sixty years old, right?"
Yang Guochang: "..."
He is a cabinet minister, how can such a doctor and a small official be compared with him?
His face turned gloomy. This Xu Deqing had met Jia Heng'er in Jingzhao Mansion before, and it was probably because of his trust that he recommended Qin Ye to succeed the Ministry of Industry.
Just when the minds of all the ministers were shocked, Zhao Yi, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, held the wat tablet and said in a deep voice: "Reporting to your Majesty, I think that Qin Ye, a doctor in the Qingli Division of the Ministry of Industry's Maintenance Department, can be appointed as the Ministry of Industry. The Imperial Mausoleum is corrupt. In the corruption case, all the staff of the Ministry of Industry were coerced by Pan and Lu, and they colluded with them. At this time when thousands of horses were in silence, only Qin Ye was not colluding with them when he was running the Cleaning Department. The minister recommended Qin Ye as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Assistant Manager. I am handling ministry affairs and rectifying personnel affairs, and please ask the Holy One for permission." As soon as Zhao Yi said this, it was like a huge stone causing a storm in the palace, and the expressions of all the ministers in the palace suddenly changed, and there was a lot of discussion. If we say that the recommendation of Xu Lu, the censor of Zuodu, still has the meaning of being alone. After all, since the revision of "Longzhi Huidian", although it has not been explicitly stated that the minister must be replaced by a third- or fourth-rank official, but the official The selection and appointment of people gradually formed a well-established transfer process, so most of the people previously recommended were among the governors of the provinces, the feudal bureaus, and the temple supervisors.
At this moment, the support of a minister of the Ministry of Industry is undoubtedly the greatest recognition among the ministers of the Ministry of Industry, and Zhao Yi was once a cabinet minister. Even though he has now returned to the headquarters, he still has no right to speak. General courtiers are comparable.
This matter will undoubtedly be divided into 60 and 70 points.
Seeing this, Shi Jie, the Minister of War, frowned. After thinking about it, he felt that it might be better to wait and speak.
If he also recommends Qin Ye at this moment, amidst the doubts and criticisms just now, it may not add much weight to Qin Ye's taking over the position of the ministry, and it may easily cause some people to make malicious speculations.
Is it because he accepted benefits from Jia Ziyu, who was also in the military aircraft department, and then gave him convenience? In the eyes of others, this seemed to be a suspicion of using the state's public assets for personal gain.
When Emperor Chongping heard this, a flash of thought flashed across his face, he frowned and asked: "Qin Ye has been in the Ministry of Industry for thirty years, why hasn't he been transferred?"
This is a question to Han Huang, the Minister of Civil Affairs. These officials have been in the first department for thirty years and have not been transferred. This is unusual in itself. Han Huang's face straightened, he came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, Qin Ye was not born in Kejia. In the past, he was appointed as a small official in the Ministry of Industry, and then he accumulated merits and passed through the positions of chief officer and Yuanwailang. This is how he came to be. It took about twenty years. When he was transferred to the position of doctor, the Ministry of officials took special care of him. He was transferred to Mokan for nearly twenty years. After he was in charge of the management and repair of the Qing official division, he could be released to the outside after his rank was full. Province, but the household department was busy with personnel, and there was no suitable vacancy, so it was gradually delayed. After the incident, this minister in charge of the official department made such an omission, and asked the Holy One to punish him." This rhetoric can be said to be watertight, because Qin Ye's official career is too low. No one among the ministers present knows that Qin Ye was born as a scribe, so just being appointed as a foreigner requires a lot of hard work, and there was a lot of delay before becoming a doctor (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 530: Emperor Chongping:...Is that okay for me?
After a short time, I finally got the position of doctor, but due to my background, I was delayed because there was no suitable vacancy in the official department.
The Ministry of Civil Affairs must first look for officials who came from the imperial examination to fill the vacancies.
To put it bluntly, he has reached the ceiling of his career.
Emperor Chongping looked indifferent and said in a deep voice: "The Ministry of Industry is different from other ministries and does not need to limit the proper path of the imperial examination. Kuang Kejia was born like Pan Lu and two others, and they did not necessarily remember the teachings of the saints and uphold their integrity. Instead, they were corrupt and despicable. Do you want to gather your temperament and judge the wise and foolish, the noble and the humble based on your background in the imperial examination? How can I do that?"
Han Huang frowned, his face changed slightly, and he responded to these discriminatory remarks.
The officials in the palace, all the officials who came from the imperial examination, looked equally unhappy.
If there is no distinction between purity and purity, and there is nothing noble about the imperial examination background, then why do they come here after studying so hard?
I sincerely disagree with this statement!
However, since all of them were third-grade disciples and had great qi-nurturing skills, and there were no scientific attendants accompanying them, Emperor Chongping's words did not elicit any remonstrance.
This was not about recommending officials and ministers of war. At that time, there would be ministers standing east and west, one recommending, one impeaching, and finally a list of four or five people was decided and handed over to Emperor Chongping for his use.
Today's court push is the result of a prior battle between the Qi and Zhejiang parties.
Yang Guochang's face was gloomy, and he came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that Qin Ye is the father-in-law of the Minister of Military Aircraft Jia Heng. He is the presiding judge of a case of the Ministry of Industry. He is suspected of being a melon. I ask your Majesty to think twice."
As soon as this statement came out, all the officials who had no idea what was going on were slightly surprised and secretly thought that there was such a relationship.
Could it be...that it was Jia Ziyu who was responsible for the relationship between these two people. Yes, Zhao Shangshu interceded for Jia Ziyu earlier. Was this a deal?
Many officials had previously been recommended in this way, so they would naturally think so.
At this time, Liu Yuzhong, who was offering wine at the Imperial Academy, spoke up and said, "I have also heard that Qin Ye is the father-in-law of Jia Heng, Minister of Military Aircraft and Deputy Envoy of Jingying Festival. Jia Ziyu is the presiding judge of the Gongling case, and Gongling one In this case, both ministers were severely punished by the Holy Emperor, and the principles were clearly established. I thought it was puzzling that Jia Ziyu, the father-in-law, was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry."
Because at the beginning of the Hanyuan Palace, Jia Heng wrote "Pinglu Ce" and argued with people in the Qi Party, so the people in the Qi Party were naturally aware of some of Jia Heng's family situations.
Upon hearing this, the ministers in the palace whispered to each other for a while, with doubts appearing on their faces.
Confusing?
This means that there is something hidden inside. Of course, there is some conspiracy theory in this speculation without any evidence, but it is precisely this kind of misleading rhetoric that is the most arousing to people's imagination, because you can judge others by yourself. Zhao Yi, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, looked indifferent and retorted: "If the official remembers it correctly, who is Liu Yu, the Imperial College sacrificial wine recommended by Mr. Yang Ge, Liu Yu, or from Linyi? For example, when it comes to melon fields and plum trees, Mr. Yang Ge does his duty. As for Mr. Liu, what? When did you become the official censor?"
Yang Guochang's face changed slightly, his heart sank, and a cold feeling surged in his heart. When Zhao Yi was in the cabinet, he took great care of him. Now that he has been removed from his position as a cabinet member, he can't do what he wants. Instead of asking for others, he still harbors resentment. There is no style of minister at all.
When Zhao Yi was in the cabinet, he took care of him. Now, in addition to being a cabinet member, he also wants to fight against him.
However, Yang Guochang did not know what Zhao Yi was thinking. Firstly, the chief assistant of the cabinet should be responsible for the Gongling case, but he was kicked out of the cabinet. Secondly, the Gongling case was also intervened by the Ministry of Household Affairs, such as the right of the Ministry of Household Affairs. The minister Liang Yuan is also involved in the case, and is now being arrested by the Jinyi Mansion and sent to the capital. Why is Yang Guochang safe alone?
In the side room, Liu Yuzhong, the imperial concubine who was supporting the ceremony, had an ugly face and was as frozen as ice.
Yang Guochang said in a deep voice: "I am a public-spirited person and cannot bear to see the state's public weapons being given to and received privately by others, and become things that repay favors in return. I ask the Holy Spirit to give you a clear warning."
This statement was directed at Zhao Yi, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, because Jia Heng was "reciprocating a favor" by helping him speak the day before yesterday, and regarded the state's public instruments as a tool to express favors. This accusation cannot be taken lightly.
Zhao Yi said in a deep voice: "Mr. Yang Ge, if you remember correctly, the Minister of Household Affairs, Liang Yuantong, was involved in the case. There were corrupt officials under Mr. Yang Ge. He didn't know that he was self-inspecting his headquarters, and he was still recommending officials? Which civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty were in the situation? I don’t know, but Yang Ge Lao and Jia Ziyu had a long-standing feud. Yang Ge Lao accused his subordinate of giving and receiving privately, and his subordinate also suspected that Yang Ge Lao abandoned the public service for personal reasons.
Chapter 530: Emperor Chongping:...Is that okay for me?
He is a suitable choice in terms of career and qualifications. Why is Mr. Yang Ge obstructing him in every possible way? "
As soon as this statement came out, everyone found it satisfying and thrilling, because this was a former cabinet minister attacking the prestige of the chief minister of the cabinet in front of the emperor.
Without him, such a direct confrontation of words would never be seen at ordinary times.
Emperor Chongping frowned, his face was not good-looking, and he said in a deep voice: "When you promote virtuous people, you don't avoid relatives, and when you promote virtuous people, you don't avoid enemies. Since you are promoting virtuous people for the country, you should have a public heart. You should not use the theory of killing people's hearts and make rash remarks. dispute!"
This is because after previous repeated attacks, Yang Guochang's prestige was gradually not enough to suppress his colleagues.
Seeing that the two of them were at war with each other, Han Huang smoothed things over and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang Ge, now Jia Ziyu is not in the court to discuss personnel transfers, and there is no talk of any suspicion. Besides, Mr. Yang Ge." Such speculations are baseless, and it is unbecoming to argue in front of the emperor now."
This is the undercover test that Yang Guochang is unbecoming, how can he be the first assistant?
Han Huang said, without waiting for Yang Guochang to say anything, he bowed and cupped his hands to Emperor Chongping and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the Ministry of Industry has undergone a major change. At least it should find an official who is familiar with the affairs of the Ministry to be transferred. Qin Ye was previously hindered by Kejia. He was born in a low-level official and was unable to be used for many years. However, in the past thirty years, Qin Ye people lived up to his name and worked diligently and conscientiously in his work. He was magnanimous and magnanimous. He thought that Qin Ye could be the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and asked the emperor not to accept Qin Ye's background.
At this time, Qin Ye's promotion to the ministry was almost done. It was better to go with the flow and sell Jia Ziyu a favor and let his father-in-law Qin Ye take over the Ministry of Industry. Anyway, the emperor's intentions were not above those of the Qi and Zhejiang parties.
As for the matter of family background in the imperial examination, it is important or not. For example, many supervisors and examiners also have a feudal official, although there are few but not none.
As soon as Han Huangjin's words came out, Zhao Mo, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, his eyes flashed, and he also held an ivory wat tablet and said: "My minister, I also thought that the Ministry of Industry should choose an old official to help manage the affairs of the ministry. Qin Ye has been an official for decades. He is diligent and thrifty, and never neglects the affairs of the Ministry. I think there is nothing wrong with Qin Ye taking over the affairs of the Ministry of Industry."
The approval of the two cabinet ministers, coupled with the approval of the previous two important ministers, the Minister of Industry and the General Constitution of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, suddenly formed a powerful and irresistible trend.
What people want, what everyone hopes for!
Shi Jie, the Minister of War, was dumbfounded at this moment. He almost thought that Jia Heng had found another Zhejiang Party member to promote his father-in-law. In a flash of thought, he decided to remain silent.
Now, it is better not to speak up than to speak up, otherwise as they are both in the military and in charge of the Privy Council, others will inevitably speculate that they are connected.
Under the attention of the ministers, Emperor Chongping seemed to think about it for a while, and suddenly said: "What Han Qing said is reasonable. He immediately moved Qin Ye to be the right minister of the Ministry of Industry, sitting in the Yamen to oversee affairs and support the ministry."
As he is older, he can become an official within a few years of serving, and it will not affect the situation of the court. In addition, he is not a group or a party, which helps Zhao Yi to achieve a check and balance effect. Otherwise, if the court pushes back and forth, it will be Qi and Zhejiang. party. As soon as this statement came out, the officials in the palace had complicated thoughts. For example, the people in the Zhejiang Party and the Minister of Taichang Temple were feeling depressed. Prime Minister Han had promised well before, but just now he remained silent and instead pushed back against an old official.
As the ministers obeyed the order, one of the two ministers of the Ministry of Industry was appointed.
But some people couldn't help but murmur in their hearts. Some people lamented that this was Jia Junji's holy family member, while others speculated that there might be other considerations of the Sacred Heart.
At this time, Zhang Zhi, the censor of the left deputy capital, held a jade tablet and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry is still vacant. The Ministry of Works needs someone to act as an agent to take charge of the ministry. I would like to ask your Majesty to decide on the candidate."
Qin Ye is now the right minister of the Ministry of Industry, and the left minister of the Ministry of Industry is still vacant. Who should take up the post?
It's just that the words of Zhang Zhi, the censor of the left deputy capital, were somewhat emotional, because the candidates he recommended earlier were rejected by Emperor Chongping one after another. Others are also excited.
Emperor Chongping said solemnly: "When selecting officials, it is better to have a shortage than to overfill. Today there are no suitable candidates for the court, so we might as well wait for talented people. Besides, Zhao Qing returns to the Ministry of Directors and is responsible for the affairs of the headquarters. The Ministry of Industry should be able to take care of their own affairs."
Among the six departments of the Han Dynasty, under the Shangshu, there are left and right ministers, all of whom have the same rank of the third rank. However, the left is superior and the right is inferior, and they are divided into internal and external affairs. For example, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites presides over sacrifices and court meetings, while the right minister of the Ministry of Rites presides over the provincial examinations and the canonization of various vassal states.
(This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 530: Emperor Chongping:...Is that okay for me?
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Han Huang, the Second Assistant to the Cabinet, had more complex thoughts after hearing Emperor Chongping's words. As he expected, the emperor would rather leave his position vacant than let the Qi and Zhejiang parties place more people in the Ministry of Industry. Such is the Holy Heart. What a fuss!
After Emperor Chongping finished speaking, his indifferent eyes glanced at the officials below, and finally his eyes rested on the face of Zhao Yi, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and asked: "When Zhao Qing returns to the Ministry of Directors, he will organize the affairs of the ministry with Qin Ye, the right minister of the Ministry of Industry, and select officials. Officials are responsible for the work of the Ministry and must not delay the affairs of the Ministry." Zhao Yi looked straight, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I obey your decree."
In a court push, the Qi and Zhejiang parties all failed under the will of Emperor Chongping. Instead, the Ministry of Industry only took advantage of Qin Ye, a young man. It spread throughout the capital and became known to hundreds of officials.
Qin Ye, he was just a doctor in the first division of the Ministry of Industry. How could he reach a high official position if he was not from the first class of science?
Not to mention the officials in charge of the temple in the capital, let’s talk about the officials from the provinces, feudal bureaus, and the six ministries in Nanjing. There are also many people with qualified qualifications. It’s not Qin Ye’s turn, right?
...
...
Wuying Hall, Military Aircraft Department
Jia Heng was sitting behind a mahogany desk behind the military aircraft office, flipping through a pile of military memorials sent from various provinces. In fact, half of his mind was in the direction of Hanyuan Hall.
Today, the court recommends the Sixth Minister of Military Affairs. He is the Minister of Military Aircraft, but he is not even qualified to attend. This is because he has not been baptized by wars and the status of the Military Aircraft Department is not high. He has not yet been able to usurp the power of the cabinet. He is not worthy of his name.
Just as Jia Heng was thinking about it, suddenly, a clerk from outside came in, entered the official hall of the Military Aircraft Department, and said, "Sir, there is an urgent report from the envoy of the North Town of Jinyi Mansion."
Mu Sheng, Shi Shu, Shi Ding and other military aircraft drivers who were originally copying the document were stunned when they heard this. They stopped writing with the brush in their hands and raised their eyes to look at the young man in the python suit. curious.
Jia Heng took the sealed brocade box, took out the key, opened the brocade box, took out a book, put it in his hand and read it, his eyes were condensed, there was not much expression on his face, he stood up and left the long desk .
"Ziyu, what happened?" Shi Ding asked with a frown.
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "This is a letter from Mr. Li Ge. Tang Kuan, the commander-in-chief of Ji Town, has been arrested for Mr. Li Ge and sent to the capital. As for Jinyi Mansion, the guards will escort him along the way. Fei Ge has sent the letter here. I will Go to the inner study to report to Your Majesty."
The arrest of the commander-in-chief of Jizhen was a major event, because it meant one thing: the Qi Party's decline was inevitable, and Yang Guochang's position was on the verge of collapse.
Li Zan arrived in Peiping not long ago, accompanied by his son Li Yi and Zou Jing, the right minister of the Ministry of War. He was greeted by officials of all sizes in Peiping. When he arrived at the Marshal's Office, he was present in front of the Peking Capital Commander, the Peking Prefecture Yin and others. In the face of the officials, he ordered the accompanying imperial guards to capture Tang Kuan, the commander-in-chief of Jizhen, on the spot, and temporarily confiscated the military power of Wu Yao, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan.
As for mutiny, don't even think about it.
First, the Han Dynasty's control over Jizhen and Beiping Prefecture reached a very high level through the transportation of money and food, and the appointment and dismissal of officials. Secondly, when Tang Kuan went to meet Li Zan, he was a little surprised that Li Zan actually captured him on the spot. Thirdly, the original cadres from the Chu Party cooperated with him. This was the foundation accumulated by Li Zan for many years as the Minister of War, and he had mastered the promotion of generals. , and fourthly, Jinyi Mansion assisted.
"It's just that Captain Qiu has made meritorious deeds." Jia Heng thought, a little amused, and then without further delay, he went to the Daming Palace to find Emperor Chongping.
