Young officials with insufficient rank and qualifications nodded one after another, saying that they knew this famous saying of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and continued to say that they should read more history books after returning home and learn the wisdom of their predecessors from the history books.
Some senior officials with relatively high levels and seniority showed strange expressions.
The Benji of Gaozu in the Historical Records, and the Chronicles of Gaozu in the Sui Dynasty.
What does Su Yonglin mean when he reads these two articles?
Tian Guizi has always been a cautious person who doesn't like high-profile actions. Why did he take the initiative to talk about what happened during Su Yonglin's recuperation after coming back this time, and why did he talk about it so clearly and carefully?
Something is wrong, something is definitely wrong.
In connection with the previous remarks circulating in the court about Su Yonglin's successor, and the fact that Su Yonglin read the biographies of the two founding emperors this time, some senior officials noticed something abnormal.
The senior official who noticed this abnormality did not reveal his thoughts. Instead, like some officials with ideas, he found these two articles and read them deeply after returning home.
Then they each had their own feelings.
Some people saw the part where the two founding emperors established the country and ascended the throne, and speculated that Su Yonglin had the intention of ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor. The two news that came out during this period were deliberately done by Su Yonglin, so that this time his Being sick can be problematic.
Some people saw the achievements of the two founding emperors and speculated that Su Yonglin would have a large-scale military plan in the future to show his bravery and strength and the stability of his status.
Others saw the part where the two founding emperors governed the country, wondering what method Su Yonglin would use to govern the country next, and trying to pry into Su Yonglin's thoughts.
Only a handful of people focused their attention on the two emperors who eradicated dissidents and slaughtered heroes after the founding of the country, and sensed signs of danger beyond the abnormal.
To be honest, the officials who actually went back to read the history books were in the minority among the entire group of officials in Zhongdu. Most of the young and unqualified officials did not think there was anything unusual about the news spread by Tian Guizi.
It may be a good thing for Su Yonglin to read books to recharge and increase his knowledge while he is recuperating!
Officials with such simple ideas account for more than 90% of the entire Zhongdu official group.
Only a relatively small number of senior, high-level and intelligent officials and revival members noticed some abnormal signals, and connected the previous rumors about Su Yonglin's successor in the court with this incident, trying to find out what was wrong. secret.
And even among this small number of people, quite a few could not guess what Su Yonglin's intention was in picking out these two articles alone, let alone whether it was a cover-up, or whether it was simply Su Yonglin's boredom.
However, because some people have ulterior motives, they are still unable to explain this matter as "Su Yonglin is bored and watching". They themselves cannot convince themselves that Su Yonglin is really just bored.
There must be some intention in it.
On the fifth day of Su Yonglin's illness and recuperation, on December 19, the eleventh year of Hongwu, Pan Yongjian, the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and Tian Yongwang, the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, who were old comrades in arms, gathered for dinner at the "Wangyue Restaurant" on Prosperity Street in Zhongdu. .
The two asked for a private room and talked about the matter.
"Speaking of which, I read the biographies of Liu Bang and Yang Jian after I went back. There are indeed many places to read, but I never figured out what Tian Guizi meant. Did Tian Guizi mean it himself or did the chairman really do that? of?"
Pan Yongjian looked at Tian Yongwang, his face full of inquiry.
"Why do you care about this?"
Tian Yongwang ate the food on the table, and then said: "The Ministry of Civil Affairs has been crazy busy recently. More than a million people from the Western Regions have to be transferred there. I am almost exhausted. I will look for you to have a meal with me." You are here on a temporary vacation, so eat quickly so that I can go back to work."
Pan Yongjian rolled his eyes.
"It's not easy for old friends to ask you to come out for a meal. You just want to leave as soon as you sit down. Isn't it too much?"
Tian Yongwang smiled bitterly.
"Too much? I'm very tired! Do you think I am as free as your officials and can earn a salary? By the way, you, the right servant, shouldn't be so free, right?"
"With the Organization Department of the Renaissance Association here, the staff department is just a supplement. Unless the organization department is crazy busy and can't handle it, I won't be very busy."
Speaking of this matter, Pan Yongjian was obviously unhappy. He drank a glass of wine and sighed: "Actually, I envy you people who can be busy. You have a lot of things to do. Unlike us, when everyone is idle, we When everyone is busy, we are still idle."
"What's the matter? Are you unhappy that the Organization Department has taken away your power? This is not a rare thing."
Tian Yongwang smiled and said: "We are all members of the Fuxing Association. Isn't it natural for the Fuxing Association to take charge of affairs? Are you unhappy? Look at the General Staff Headquarters and the Privy Council. Who has the final say? In addition to the chairman being the director of the Military Affairs Department, there is an organization department and a discipline department. The commander-in-chief will control the entire army tightly.
Needless to say, when the Renaissance was first established, who among us could have imagined what it is today? Such a strange organization has developed to this day, and it has spread all over the government and the public. All major departments are their people, including us. I heard that there are many people outside who are trying to get into the revival meeting, but they can't. Come. "
Pan Yongjian sneered when he heard this.
"A bunch of bugs and speculators. For those who want to join the revival meeting now, it would be good if five out of ten have the same ideals as we did back then. So let me tell you, it is wrong for the chairman to care so much about the newcomers. Although I have nothing to do in the official department Yes, but I know the people we recruit.
Those new people have never experienced war, nor have they experienced much exploitation and oppression. They have no idea how much hardship we old people endured to get to this point. What's more, some of them have never been hungry. Can such people become great people? ? Can you take over our revolutionary cause? "
"That's true. I've heard a lot of rumors about this over the years. It's said that now you not only need to take the imperial examination, but also become a member of the Renaissance. This is the most promising way."
Tian Yongwang said dissatisfied: "I think these people are outrageous. What have they done to the good revolutionary cause? Is joining the Renaissance just for the sake of future? I suggest you keep such people locked up and never let them in." .”
Pan Yongjian was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was full of bitterness.
"In the earliest days, the Ministry of Personnel still had real power. Later, the Organization Department became more and more powerful. Now the real power to select officials does not lie with the Ministry of Personnel. The Ministry of Personnel only goes through the process and registers names, place of origin and Family relationships have almost become the storage room of the organization department.”
Tian Yongwang put down the chopsticks in his hand.
"Did you, Dibutang, have no reaction?"
"Di Butang...that guy Di Liao is simply a lackey of the Organization Department! He has been following the Organization Department, and you can't see what he is fighting for for our staff!"
Pan Yongjian snorted coldly: "I don't have much qualifications, but I have quite a lot of experience. I know how to fawn over that bastard Zhou Chong. I even heard that he really wants to try to get the position of deputy director of the Organization Department. He doesn't seem to want to continue to be the minister in the Ministry of Personnel." .
After that idiot Qiao Feng fell, Zhou Chong immediately promoted his crony Lei Zizhen to be the deputy director. However, according to the regulations, there can also be a deputy director. Di Liao seems to be seeking this position, bah! Many people in the ministry were secretly scolding him. "
