Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 764: The Inspector Arrives
In the tide of special times, a group of special people will emerge. They may be big figures or small figures, but no matter what, their appearance is a sign of an era!

Under the tide of the times, who can successfully reach the shore and who will be swept into the surging tide is tested not only on ability, but also on a mysterious luck!

cabinet.

"Li Qiyuan, don't you think it's chaotic enough!?" Shi Jixie frowned, staring at Li Qiyuan who had a calm expression, and said with dissatisfaction in his words.

"It's a good thing that your Censorate was able to think of this. They actually wanted to directly move into the six ministries to supervise them. What? Do you want to interfere with the six ministries?"

"There has never been such a precedent in our dynasty. This is simply unheard of! According to your opinion, will you still have to station in the cabinet for supervision in the future?!"

The voices of questioning echoed here, and cabinet ministers such as Zhu Guozuo, Qian Qianyi, and Sun Ruyou showed different expressions. It seemed that no one responded, but in fact everyone present had their own ideas.

Qian Qianyi and Sun Ruyou, in particular, glanced at Bi Ziyan from time to time, and the vague hostility in their eyes showed their thoughts.

The Ministry of Revenue's turmoil during this period disrupted the plans of many people. Not only did it abort the plan to counter the 'Emperor's Decree of Noble Titles', it also created time for the power-sharing plan of the Capital Inspection to build up momentum. Now, the Procuratorate has started to make trouble after the Ministry of Revenue, and now, the Censorate is not to be outdone!

Politics has always been like this, one wrong step leads to all wrong steps.

I thought that after three years of Tianqi, the situation would be better than before, but everyone guessed wrong, the situation seems to be more complicated than before!
The emperor is unpredictable and seems to have endless tricks up his sleeve. Often, before the previous thing has been decided, something new happens next, making it impossible to keep up!
This feels so uncomfortable.

It’s too frustrating!
"Mr. Shi, I want to remind you." While everyone was lost in thought, Li Qiyuan lifted his sleeves and spoke slowly.

"The Censorate does not belong to Li Qiyuan, nor to anyone else. The Censorate is directly under the imperial court! Just now, Lord Shi mentioned the words 'your Censorate'. Does he mean that the six ministries are under the jurisdiction of the cabinet, not the imperial court?"

"you!!"

Shi Jixie was so angry that he didn't know what to say for a moment.

See, this is what’s so frustrating.

No matter what new thing emerges, there will always be people who argue for it, even though many people know that this new thing must be the emperor's intention.

But the key point is that there are people who are at the forefront of new things, and the key is that they really want to do the job at hand well.

This is the strength of Zhu Youxiao.

For every clear plan and deployment, he can always find the most suitable people and put them in the right positions to play their roles and talents.

The most important point is that Zhu Youxiao never chooses to escape. No matter what happens, no matter what troubles occur, he always stands firmly behind these people. This is both support and courage!
For those who want to do practical things, they are never afraid of challenges and difficulties. What they are afraid of is that the people who want them to do things will eventually choose to give up on them after being threatened and pressured. This is really heartbreaking.

As a person in a superior position, one must know how to make choices, cut off disadvantages and expand advantages. However, this does not mean that anyone or anything can be abandoned in the face of interests.

If this really happens, when the people below become disheartened, and when those who are watching see through it, then the real crisis is approaching!

Emperor Chongzhen in history was such a person. He wanted to get what he wanted, but didn't want to bear too much. The final result was that he was deserted by his friends and relatives. Those who were willing to do practical things either died of disappointment or became desperate. This is why the Jiashen Kingdom rarely emerged.

With such precedents, how could Zhu Youxiao not understand that the emperor is a lonely man, and this is brought about by the nature of power, but the emperor cannot be both the emperor and the ruler, this is too ridiculous!

If you want fame, don't even think about doing anything.

If you want to do something, don't want fame. The two are bound to be opposites.

Faced with the choice between fame and career, Zhu Youxiao decisively chose career. As for fame, even if many people cursed and criticized him, what did it matter?
After all, history is written by the victors!

"Mr. Li, that's not what Lord Shi meant." Seeing the atmosphere change, Qian Qianyi smiled, first glanced at Shi Jikai, and then said to Li Qiyuan.

"Mr. Shi is worried about the political situation. The current situation is rather special. People are in a state of panic. If the Censorate sends a group of people to the six ministries at this time, it will inevitably make people think too much."

"Mr. Qian, who do you think would think too much?"

As soon as Qian Qianyi finished speaking, Bi Ziyan remained calm, picked up the teacup beside him, and said calmly: "It is said that the people in the court are in a panic, why don't I feel it? Could it be that some people have hidden evil intentions?"

"I think it's a good idea to have the inspectors join the ministry. Since the Beijing inspection is under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Censorate, it is the duty of the Metropolitan Censorate to supervise the central government officials."

"Mr. Li, I don't care what others think. The Ministry of Revenue is willing to accept the supervision of the Censorate. If the Ministry of Revenue fails to handle this matter, then I am willing to resign!"

"Mr. Bi is so righteous!"

Upon seeing this, Li Qiyuan quickly stood up and bowed to Bi Ziyan.

Qian Qianyi looked very unhappy.

Sun Ruyou was not much better.

Among the ministers in the cabinet, there are three who are in charge of various ministries. Bi Ziyan is in charge of the Ministry of Revenue, Sun Ruyou is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and Wang Xiangqian is in charge of the Ministry of War. As for the Ministry of Censorship, no one knows better than these three what it represents.

Although the Six Ministries is a collective name, their respective powers are different. It can be said that the Six Ministries are the core under the Cabinet, specifically managing a certain area. It is not surprising to say that they are independent kingdoms.

Previously, six permanent departments were set up and given corresponding powers in order to check and balance the six ministries and prevent them from having too much power. However, as time went by, the nature of the six departments gradually changed.

The six departments were no longer supporters of imperial power, but instead became an obstacle to it. This led to the integration of the six departments. No matter what you think, Zhu Youxiao wanted to completely control the situation. Anyone who dared to violate this would be his enemy.

"Since Lord Bi has expressed his stance, the Ministry of War is also willing to accept the Chief Inspector into the ministry." In a delicate atmosphere, Wang Xiangqian lifted his sleeves and spoke calmly.

this! !

Wang Xiangqian's sudden statement shocked many people.

In the past year or so, Wang Xiangqian has not made many statements in the cabinet, so many people think that Wang Xiangqian is old and does not have the energy to mediate these issues.

But no one knew that during this period of time, Wang Xianggan had been busy with an important matter, which was to promote the reform of the post system to the northern provinces!
The reform of the post system in northern Zhili, Liaodong, Hanzhong and other places has been carried out along with the advancement of the war, which has caused many people to fail to pay attention to this.

But just because others don’t pay attention doesn’t mean Wang Xiangqian doesn’t care!

Wang Xiangqian, who thoroughly understood the difficulties of the post system reform, felt that this year was a rare opportunity for the Ministry of War. If they failed to seize this opportunity, it would be extremely difficult to completely reform the Ming Dynasty's post system in the future.

Since we have chosen to do this, we should grab the limelight at the central level. If we want to get things done, the key lies in how the people below think and see it. Sometimes, disputes are not all bad. This is the complexity of politics!!
