Sometimes, court affairs are no different from bargaining at the vegetable market.
In the matter of rectifying the military garrison, the Ministry of War offered a price for 60 officers and officers, but the Metropolitan Procuratorate said we would only provide ten, and the rest would go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs.
Faced with the alliance between the Ministry of War and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Mr. Wang lamented at the same time and tried to reason.
All of a sudden, the quota went from sixty to forty. First, he split half with the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and then he split half with the Hanlin Academy.
Although Wang Wen usually has a bad temper and a tough temper, when it comes to bargaining, this old man is also rude.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the palace was a little awkward.
Yu Qian's brows wrinkled visibly. He had a good temper recently, but he still took the military camp issue very seriously.
After pondering for a moment, Yu Qian shook his head and said.
"The sixty officers are the number determined by the Ministry of War after repeated discussions. The number of acres on the Qingzhang border is only the first step in organizing the military settlement. After the Qingzhang is completed, they will need to deal with various issues in detail."
"Corruption in military camps has now become a chronic disease. If the imperial court wants to take action, it must act vigorously and resolutely without delay. The longer the delay, the more local generals and officials will collude and deceive to fight against the imperial court. Therefore, in terms of the number of these sciences, It must not be scaled back.”
At the same time, Chen Yi also raised objections.
The old man had a sad face, shook his head at Wang Wen, and said.
"Otsuka Zai, the former Imperial Inspector, and the Metropolitan Inspectorate were dismissed because of their carelessness. Now there is really no manpower available. Being able to move ten people is the result of my careful calculation. The remaining ones are , either there is an urgent case at hand, or we really can’t leave.”
"If too many people are transferred, the government affairs of the court will be messed up. Therefore, this matter is indispensable and the officials will come to help."
*Yes, Mr. Wang officially announced that he was blinded by his slight favorable impression of Qian just now.
Seeing the two people singing in harmony in front of me, Wang Wen wouldn't believe it if they said they had never connected before!
Don't think he doesn't know that during the inspection in Beijing, the Ministry of Civil Affairs dismissed so many officials from the Department of Science and Technology, and Chen Yi had a grudge against them.
This time, taking advantage of the opportunity, the lion opened its mouth and asked the officials to spit out everything they had eaten.
Yu Qian was not a good guy either. In order to get the Metropolitan Procuratorate to support him in rectifying the military settlements, he helped Chen Yi to embarrass the officials.
Pooh!
Mr. Wang was gushing in his heart. If it weren't for the fact that they were in front of the emperor and these two people were Yu Qian and Chen Yi, he would have scolded them long ago.
But despite his efforts to restrain himself, Otsuka Zai still looked quite unhappy, he said.
"Every government office has difficulties, but everyone has to work together and understand each other so that government affairs can be carried out, right?"
As he spoke, Wang Wen turned sideways, turned to Xiao Tan and the cabinet duo, and asked.
"Scholar Xiao, Lord Chief Assistant, do you think this is true?"
Sure enough, people will change after being in court for a long time.
It was an eye-opener for the elders present today. Not only was Yu Shaobao's attitude much softer than before, but even Wang Wen, who had always worked alone, began to look for helpers.
There is no doubt that Xiao Tan is definitely not willing to let people from the Hanlin Academy lower their status.
But Wang Ao...
In the eyes of everyone, the chief assistant spoke calmly and said.
"Yes, I also feel that the Ministry of Civil Affairs has its own rules and regulations for selecting and appointing officials. The Ministry of War needs to dispatch officials to inspect the military villages. They should choose them from the existing yamen. How can the rhythm of the selection be disrupted by one incident? The imperial court has If everything goes like this in many major political affairs, wouldn’t it mean that everything will go into chaos?”
It should be said that during this period, Wang Ao kept a very low profile in the court.
In the cabinet, two cabinet ministers fought with each other at first, and then Yu Shiyue, the second minister, came to the limelight. The eyes of the court officials basically fell on Yu Shiyue and Zhu Jian.
On the contrary, as the chief minister, he rarely stood up to show his presence in the court.
But this time, he opened his mouth and gave everyone a surprise.
You know, some time ago, these two people had a conflict because of Li Xian's demotion.
With Wang Tianguan's vengeful character, he would continue to ask Wang Ao to help him, which I have to say is really surprising.
However, what is even more unexpected is that Wang Ao not only stood firmly on Wang Wen's side, but also spoke more harshly than Wang Wen.
Yu Qian, Chen Yi and Wang Wen all belong to the Emperor's Party after all.
Therefore, even if Wang Wen has no scruples in front of other ministers, when facing these two people, even for the emperor's sake, Wang Wen still has to be a little bit thin.
Otherwise, if it spreads, it will be as if the emperor cannot even control his closest ministers.
Wang Tianguan has always understood the key points in between.
Therefore, although Wang Wen has a bad temper, he always speaks tactfully.
However, Wang Ao was not so polite. With this opening, he accused the Ministry of War of disregarding the rules of the election for his own political affairs, and even went so far as to disrupt the court situation.
But why?
Looking at the reconciled duo, the elders had a big question mark in their minds.
But it was only for a moment, someone accidentally caught a glimpse of Xiao Tan and Wang Ao standing together, and they vaguely understood something in their hearts.
In recent days, it is said that these two people have been quite close.
This is not a strange thing.
You must know that the Hanlin Academy was originally the headquarters of the cabinet. Even outside Wang Aodao's cabinet, the cabinet ministers were the chief bachelors of the Hanlin Academy.
However, something happened later, and with Wang Ao's decisive action, the cabinet and the Hanlin Academy were separated.
From this perspective, Xiao Tan was actually a beneficiary of this incident.
After all, if Chen Xun and Gao Gu were still concurrently serving as bachelors in charge of the Academy, the Hanlin Academy would not be able to take their turn.
Thinking along this line of thinking, the bosses quickly understood Wang Ao's position.
You know, most of the concubines in the Hanlin Academy today are Chen Xun's disciples. Many of them had played a role in the original Sutra Banquet incident.
Therefore, for Wang Shoufu, it was the best thing for them to stay in the Hanlin Academy and continue to "observe the government." He did not want these people to move to the Imperial Academy and cause trouble for him.
Therefore, Xiao Tan was unwilling to let these common people degrade themselves, and Wang Ao was unwilling to release them to the court and cash in Qingliu's qualifications into official positions. Naturally, the two of them stood together with Wang Wen.
This is just the beginning of discussions on how to reorganize the military camp, and more and more people have already joined the battle group.
After Wang Ao finished speaking, Yu Shiyue behind him hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to speak and said.
"Master Chief Assistant, this statement is a bit alarmist. The Hanlin Academy is originally a place to reserve talents for the imperial court. Now that the imperial court is employing people, it is a matter of course to transfer them."
"As for the Spring Festival next year, according to the rules, officials are supposed to be conferred. Although there is no provision for observing the administration, as long as the officials can take care of the situation and select promising talents, I believe that the Ministry of War and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will make appropriate arrangements. .”
"Yu Shaobao, Mr. Chen, right?"
