Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law.

Hearing this, Chen Mo frowned and said in a deep voice: "He is so stubborn that he refuses to let go even with the army approaching."

"What are you going to do?" Yue Ruyan was forced by Chen Mo to sit on his lap. She could only put her arms around Chen Mo's neck and asked.

"I have already sent out the army, so there is no reason to withdraw it. Since he is so determined, we can only see blood."

A cold light flashed in Chen Mo's eyes. Although Yang Xian was Yang Qingqing's biological father, he had given him many chances. It was not his fault if he did not cherish them.

Yue Ruyan's eyes flickered, and she suddenly saw the plan on the desk. She picked it up curiously and asked, "What is this?"

Chen Mo gently lifted Yue Ruyan's chin, leaned over to her thin lips, and gently pinched them. He said, "I plan to abolish the Secretariat and the Prime Minister and set up a cabinet to reduce my burden. Otherwise, I will be too busy every day and have no time to practice with you, Ruyan."

The hand that was around Yue Ruyan's waist reached out from her military uniform, came into close contact with her skin, and gently stroked the beautiful mermaid line on her lower abdomen.

"Abolish the Prime Minister?"

Yue Ruyan was startled for a moment, then she snorted softly, her light brown face flushed, and she asked, "Has Geng Songfu made a big mistake?"

Chen Mo suddenly said that he wanted to abolish the prime minister. Yue Ruyan felt that this was not just a simple matter of reducing the burden, but he thought of much more. She felt that Geng Songfu must have made a big mistake, and Chen Mo wanted to remove him, so he proposed to build a "cabinet". Otherwise, the prime minister is the head of all officials, how can he be moved at will?

Chen Mo was stunned: "Ruyan, why do you think so?"

"Is it wrong for me to think this way? You are no longer a minister, but the monarch of Wei, a role model for the ministers. Your words and deeds may be just a small matter to you, but to the people below, they will not think so. They will speculate on your intentions and think that Geng Songfu has made a big mistake or has fallen out of favor with you, and then follow your actions and add insult to injury.

If you don't handle it well, it will cause panic among the people in the government and the public." Yue Ruyan analyzed it for Chen Mo. Having been in charge of Longyou for many years, she knew the situation well.

Chen Mo's expression was slightly solemn. He had indeed thought it a little simply. Fortunately, Ruyan reminded him that the matter of forming a cabinet should be handled with caution.

"That's great. Ruyan, can you give me some advice and see if there are any areas that need improvement? Also, can you help me think about the first batch of cabinet members?"

Chen Mo took his hand out of his military uniform and patted Yue Ruyan's millstone.

Yue Ruyan was stunned at first, but after meeting Chen Mo's eyes, she understood what he meant. After giving him a light glance, she stood up and lay on the desk with her athletic buttocks raised high, and opened the plan to read it.

Chen Mo hugged her from behind, put his arms around her belly, and asked for her opinion, even the desk got involved.

……

Five days later.

There was a great earthquake in the government and the country.

At the morning court session, His Majesty announced the abolition of the Secretariat and the Prime Minister and the establishment of a cabinet.

There were only five members in the first cabinet. Geng Songfu was appointed as the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, and Sun Cheng, the last time's top scorer in the imperial examination, was also included.

Then there is Diwu Fusheng, Chen Jin, and Liu Ji.

As soon as this news came out, the entire Tianchuan City was in an uproar, and many scholars were discussing it.

Your Majesty said at the morning court that the cabinet ministers' preparatory work would begin from this time, but at that time, those who entered the cabinet were all editors, inspectors, and lecturers, and they had no subordinates, and were not allowed to monopolize the various departments. When the various departments reported matters, they were not allowed to make related reports.

In other words, the cabinet established by His Majesty is not a power body, but His Majesty’s “personal secretary”.

Sun Cheng, Liu Ji, Chen Jin and even Diwu Fusheng were easier to deal with because their original power was not great.

But Geng Songfu was the prime minister, the head of all officials and the holder of great power. Overnight, he became a cabinet minister. In the eyes of outsiders, wasn't he just the powerless number one follower of the emperor?
This caused a huge uproar, and many students and officials in Beijing were worried.

It is said that there are no factions in the court, and all kinds of things are strange.

After Geng Songfu was promoted to prime minister, a large number of officials chose to follow Geng Songfu and became the so-called "Geng Party".

And in a short period of time, it continues to grow.

Of course, this was not something Geng Renfu did intentionally, but was just someone else's "opinion."

For example, in the last imperial examination, there was a scholar from Gaozhou who happened to be an official in the capital. This man was indeed capable and won the praise of Geng Songfu for his real talent and hard work. So Geng Songfu recommended him at a court meeting.

Although after this, the scholar from Gaozhou did not choose to use this opportunity to completely curry favor with Geng Songfu, Geng Songfu did not try to win him over in order to avoid suspicion.

But to outsiders, this scholar from Gaozhou was Geng Songfu's man.

In addition to the "Geng Party", there is also the so-called "Left Party", which is the force affiliated with Zuo Lianglun, as well as the "Jiangdong Party" and the "Jiangnan Party".

The "Jiangdong Party" was even larger than the "Geng Party", headed by Wu Yanqing and Wu Changlin. Therefore, the abolition of the prime minister was also considered by some officials and scholars to be the downfall of the "Geng Party".

As a member of the "Geng Party", one would naturally speak up for Geng Songfu.

It is believed that Geng Songfu was loyal to Your Majesty, but he was treated so unfairly.

There are even words of rebellion.

What is meant by "When the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked" and "When the birds are all dead, they hide away."

It is said that His Majesty is going to start killing meritorious officials.

At this moment, outside the Geng Mansion east of Tianchuan City, there were a lot of people surrounding it. They considered themselves members of the "Geng Party" and all wanted to meet Geng Songfu to discuss countermeasures.

But after Geng Songfu returned from the palace, he closed the door and refused to see anyone.

In the study, Geng Songfu did not care about the outside world's "pessimistic" voices about him, but instead worked diligently on the matters at hand.

He was in a very calm mood. His Majesty had discussed today's events with him a few days ago and had a long talk with him all night.

Later, all memorials, big and small, from across the country, and even suggestions made by the people to His Majesty, were summarized by the Tongzheng Chisi, and submitted to His Majesty for review by the Silijian. The cabinet was responsible for drafting its opinions, and the Silijian then submitted the opinions to His Majesty for approval, and finally the six ministries issued them.

This move not only increased the responsibilities of the cabinet, but also improved the government process.

Geng Songfu greatly admired this cabinet system.

"Master." Just then, a soft female voice came from outside the study.

"Come in." Geng Songfu said without raising his head.

As the door of the study opened, a fragrant breeze blew in before anyone appeared. Geng Songfu looked up and saw a beautiful woman walking in with a tray.

"Master, I have made your favorite Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup for you. Try it while it's hot." The beautiful woman placed the tray on the desk, picked up the jade bowl on the tray, scooped up a spoonful of Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup, blew on it slightly, and fed it to Geng Songfu's mouth.

"Nanhua, just leave it there. I'll drink it later when I have time. Just tell me if you have anything to say." Geng Songfu stopped what he was doing, raised his white-haired head, and tilted his head to look at the beautiful woman.

Seeing that Geng Songfu was already old and still alone, without even anyone to see him off to the grave, Chen Mo gave him a beautiful woman in order to prevent him from dying alone.

The beautiful woman was the beauty that Chen Mo gave to him as a reward.

Of course, when Chen Mo gave it to him as a reward, the beautiful woman was still a virgin "older girl", and it was Geng Songfu who made her a woman.

Geng Songfu touched her at that time, partly to reassure Chen Mo.

The beautiful woman Nanhua walked behind Geng Songfu and gently pressed his shoulders. After her expression changed slightly, she said, "Master, there are so many officials waiting to see you outside the palace, why don't you see any of them?"

"What's there to see? They came to see me just to ask me to come up with a solution, but they don't know that I knew about what His Majesty proposed at the court meeting today and agreed to it a few days ago." Geng Songfu said.

Nanhua was startled, and after hesitating for a moment, she tentatively said, "Now the capital is saying that you are about to fall. Of course, I know that these are all rumors. Your Majesty values ​​you so much, how could he do such a thing as abandoning you after you have done your work?

But I also feel that if the rumor is allowed to spread, the false will become true, which is not good for you. Otherwise, you should meet them and let them feel at ease. After all, they are your people. Even if you are not the prime minister in the future, you can still use them in the cabinet. But if you don't meet them like this, they will disperse. "

Geng Songfu's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and he turned back to look at Nanhua and said, "That's not something you would say."

Nanhua's expression changed, and even the action of pinching his shoulders paused.

"Look, you can't even calm down." Geng Songfu said, "Your brother taught you that."

Nanhua looked even more panicked.

"Before, it was rumored in the court that I had a Geng party, but I didn't care. As long as I didn't do anything wrong, there was no reason to be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Now it seems that your brother is probably fanning the flames and organizing it, right?" Geng Songfu looked into Nanhua's eyes, as if he could see through her.

Nanhua remained silent and bit her lip, but judging from the way her body was trembling, Geng Songfu must have been right.

But Geng Songfu did not get angry. Instead, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "To be honest, I really have to thank Your Majesty. If this continues, the so-called Geng Party will harm you and me sooner or later."
