Wang Ao held the knife and kept trembling. With this knife, his official career was gone, but he couldn't clean himself up without taking action. The majestic heavenly official, the head of hundreds of officials, was forced to be a butcher! In full view of everyone, Ling Chi is honored! Is this still the world of the Ming Dynasty?
After Zhang Xi was fixed, he would see his own flesh being cut off piece by piece. He regretted participating in the capture, regretting being the leader, and regretting forcing the emperor to die! I regret everything! What's even more frightening is that the person who personally attacked him was Wang Ao, the leader of the officials. Can he use a knife?
Wang Ao and him looked at each other, Wang Ao was trembling, Zhang Min was screaming, and they reflected each other.
Zhang Shi's screams enveloped the entire square, and all the civil and military officials realized how long it took for Gao Gu to have his heart cut open, how long it took for King Xiang to be roasted to death, and how long it took for Jiang Yuan to be hacked to death with random knives! Zhang Fu, the brother of the British Duke Zhang Fu and one of the noble leaders, was delayed again. They couldn't help but shiver down their spines and glanced at each other inexplicably. Who will be next?
"Li Qing, I will not pursue the person who recommended Wang Ao, but Wang Ao is not suitable to be a heavenly official!" Zhu Qiyu looked at Li Xian and said lightly: "How can the executioner be ranked first among the officials?"
When Wang Ao heard that he was called the executioner, his body swayed and his hands trembled. Zhang Min's screams became even more shrill. Can you please stop shaking when you strike?
Wang Ao was filled with sadness. It was over. He could no longer be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. His official career was just like this. Wang Ao burst into tears. He lowered his head and looked at the tortured Zhang Xi. He was so angry that it was you who had harmed me. of! They were all delayed and still picked this and that! I'm just shaking, it hurts you to death!
"The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel cannot be left vacant, so let the old master work hard. He will be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel for the time being, Zhang Feng will be transferred to the Minister of Rites, Ye Sheng will be the Minister of the Ministry of Hubu, and then Bai Gui, Nian Fu, Geng Jiuchou and Xuan will be appointed. Xian, Han Yong, and Zhu Ying have entered the court! Wherever there is a vacancy, it will be filled in. What do you think?"
If Zhu Qiyu wants to rectify the dynasty, he must recruit people with strong abilities who are not from Zhu Qizhen to enter the dynasty and cultivate his own basic base. Although the original owner had no power, he knew very well who had the ability. The few people he ordered to come to the capital were all outstanding figures for a while. However, the court was ranked by seniority, and useless people like Wang Zhi, Wang Ao, Xiao Tan, and Jiang Yuan occupied the court. I'm sorry for the king, and I'm sorry for the common people. I can't do anything, let alone lead the Ming Dynasty to a higher level. I can't do anything except fight for power, form cliques, and commit corruption! They all should be killed!
The emperor interfered in personnel appointments, which made the courtiers very uncomfortable. The former Emperor Jingtai was just a noob. When the cabinet proposed candidates, he nodded and stamped them. The power to draft the votes was also in the hands of Xing'an and other eunuchs. The emperor had no real power at all. .
But now that the emperor has a regiment, he is not satisfied. He just kills important ministers and actually interferes with the power of officials. Is this the power that the emperor should have? Can’t the emperor just be a rubber stamp?
"Your Majesty, this move is not in line with the promotion regulations of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. For example, Guangdong Right Councilor Zhu Ying and Jingtai serve for three years and have a ten-year term. They can only be promoted or transferred after assessment. If Your Majesty is transferred to the central government out of love and destroys the promotion regulations, Will officials in the DPRK follow suit in the future? Can you get a promotion just by flattering the monarch? Why bother waiting for the assessment? Taizu set up a promotion system, which is to work his bones, starve his body, and sharpen the quality of officials before they can take over. The center is to protect the country for the king and to benefit the people of Li. Please put the country and the country as the top priority and never get promoted randomly based on emotions." Li Xian defended bravely, and he was also worried that he would be next.
"Well, what Li Aiqing said is true. I am being reckless. Zhu Ying is not included, but Bai Gui, the right chief minister of Zhejiang, Nian Fu, the governor of Datong, Geng Jiuchou, the left deputy censor, and Shi Xuan, the left deputy censor of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate Han Yong, the imperial censor of Zuo Qian and Du Censor, must be qualified enough, right? I will transfer him to the capital to participate in political affairs. Do you have any questions?"
Li Xian clicked his tongue. The emperor had firmly ordered new people to join the capital. He was afraid that some people from the cabinet and the six ministries would leave. He secretly glanced at Wang Ao and Peng Shi. These two guys were probably the first ones. Used by the emperor for surgery.
"Bai Gui has left office and the right chief minister of Zhejiang Province is vacant, so let's transfer Peng Shi to him. Bai Gui will return to Beijing to be the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. What do you think?"
The Ministry of Personnel was what Zhu Qiyu cared about. He had to reach in and let Hu Xi serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. It was a last resort. Wang Ao was demoted and the central government was in turmoil. Only Hu Xi could take up the responsibility, like a needle that fixed the sea. However, Xue Xuan was old and useless. Cheng Xin was from Zhu Qizhen, and his abilities were average, so he was no match for Bai Gui.
All he needed to do was to win Bai Gui over and make Bai Gui his, and the officials would be in hand. Bai Gui was a capable official, capable of both civil and military duties. Since there were no talented people in the court, he was often not promoted, so he was an easy target to win over.
"Cabinet, please issue the edict." Zhu Qiyu pretended to ask for his opinion, and directly asked the edict to be finalized.
Peng Shi had a bitter look on his face, and he fought hard for the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He was kicked out to Zhejiang before his buttocks were warmed up, and even before the decree was formulated. If Wang Ao had not been "precious and precious", he might still be there. Just a few words of argument, now... forget it, no one standing in this court will end well!
"Your Majesty, Peng Shi, accepts the decree!" Peng Shi was very sensible.
The corners of Zhu Qiyu's lips raised: "Enter Peng Qing, Dr. Ronglu, Zhejiang's Zuobu Chief Envoy."
Peng Shi was inexplicably trembling. Is this the sweetness of being obedient? In fact, looking at the emperor, he is not that disgusting. At least the rewards and punishments are clear.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Peng Shi thanked him. The civil servants' rewards had come to an end. However, Zhu Qiyu had to wait for these people to enter the capital and find ways to win over these people before he could initially take control of the court. As for how long it would take, he could only Take it one step at a time. At least he won this step, and the civil service group compromised with him!
but!
Look at the recommended city defense list again. How can this be the defense center? Instead, he launched the second coup to seize the door! I guess as soon as I went to bed, the palace gate was taken away again!
"Who recommended this Mao Zhong?" Zhu Qiyu glanced at the ministers coldly.
Again? The ministers were trembling inexplicably. Is the emperor going crazy?
However, upon hearing this, the civil and military officials were inexplicably relieved and looked at Wang Ao quietly.
Wang Ao's hand shook, and Zhang Min let out another extremely shrill scream.
It’s over! I might be the next one to be chopped up!
"Wang Ao! Don't you know who Mao Zhong is? Li Shi, come and tell him! How did you report it to me in the first year of Jingtai? How did the Ministry of War examine it? Do you still need me to change the file for you? Huh! Wang! Ao, are you pretending to have forgotten, or have you really forgotten? Mao Zhong is a spy from Wala, I will be generous and send him to Fujian to watch the sea!"
"You actually want to order him to enter the capital to defend the city? Do you want him to open the city gate when the Wala people attack Beijing? Wang Ao, do you still dare to say that you are not a Wala spy? Okay, Heavenly Official, it turns out you are Zhang An accomplice of Xian! Are you still pretending to be loyal? Ling Chi Zhang Xian? Did you have a guilty conscience when you took action? Come here, capture Wang Ao for me! He will be punished for treason!"
"Also! Mao Zhong is a border general, how can he make friends with important officials in the capital? What is he going to do? Pass the order! Capture Mao Zhong's whole family, and the whole family will be Ling Chi! Send people to Fujian to catch Mao Zhong! Ling Chi on the spot!"
Zhu Qiyu took a breath and stared at everyone with sharp eyes: "Who among you has secretly made friends with the generals? Recruit them from the truth!"
"How is the Code of the Ming Dynasty written? It is a crime of treason for an important official in the court to associate with a general! Have you all eaten up? Each of you, go home and copy the Code of the Ming Dynasty for me, and submit it to me tomorrow! Copy it in your own hand! No tomorrow Those who submit it should not become officials anymore and go to work and take care of themselves in old age!"
All the officials rolled their eyes wildly. How many words are there in the Ming Dynasty Law? I couldn’t finish copying it by hand for more than ten days, so just tell us that we can become official!
"General Bian made friends with the Minister of Civil Affairs, and both sides relied on each other for support. Why didn't Jin Yiwei report such a big event?"
Zhu Qiyu paced back and forth, looking irritable, and murmured to himself: "My lords, I am uneasy. The commander of the Jinyiwei has made Zhu Ji do nothing. The general on the other side has no idea about his friendship with the minister. The Jinyiwei is really useless. It is better to disband on the spot. I I feel uneasy! Dear gentlemen, I plan to rebuild Tiqi and thoroughly investigate the relationship between the border generals and the important ministers in the court! Otherwise, I will not be able to sleep peacefully!"
ah?
All the officials were shocked. It turned out that the emperor was waiting here! He pretended to say that I was upset, but his real purpose was to rebuild Tiqi!
This is absolutely impossible. When the emperor first came to the throne, he believed the deceit of civil servants, gave up the imperial guards, and ignored the East Factory. Not only was he willing to be a pig, but he also took the initiative to close the cage door. Now that the emperor has woken up, he not only wants to bump into Don’t even think about rebuilding the Tiqi after breaking the cage! If you give a pig a nine-tooth rake, wouldn't it make him a pig?
Absolutely not!
