Wanli 1592

Chapter 722
"Then I can continue to write the letter, and I firmly disagree with it. You must not allow your majesty to treat state affairs as a trifle! It is your majesty's business to favor someone, but you must not give your favored ministers anything in the name of the country. Zhao Furan's court is uneasy, so now there is still Xiao Ruxun holding the Duke of Qin's title and domineering in front of us?"

Yu Jideng resolutely objected: "The old man will go back and write the memorial form, strongly recommending His Majesty, and will never agree to this matter! Colleagues, who would like to present the memorial to His Majesty together with the old man?"

This is to strive for fame, Yu Jideng seems to realize that this is a good opportunity to gain fame, maybe it can add some weight to his entry into the cabinet, but he has become synonymous with idiots in the eyes of Shen Yiguan.

Offended the emperor and still wants to join the cabinet?You think it's too beautiful, right?

The appointment of bureaucratic emperors in other places can't control it, can't the bachelor who is the emperor's private secretary also can't control it?This is really whoever the emperor chooses. Although the candidate is in our hands, if the emperor chooses you, there is nothing you can do, can you?
Why did Zhang Wei not please both sides at the beginning?Don't you still want fame and power?This is wanting to be a bitch and erecting a torii at the same time!How can there be such a good thing in the world?Once you enter this power field, don't think about being alone, don't think about being clean, that's impossible!
Yu Jideng obviously didn't understand the lesson Zhang Wei taught everyone with his life.

But obviously, not everyone wants to join the cabinet as crazy as Yu Jideng.

So the other four minister-level bosses did not cater to Yu Jideng.

This made Yu Jideng feel a little embarrassed, but also very annoyed.

"Don't you have a sense of shame!? Are you going to be that flatterer?!"

He was a little scared, so he chose to use this behavior to cover up his guilty conscience.

However, it is more obvious that at the time of such a critical decision, not everyone can think about the stakes before doing things like Shen Yiguan.

So Shen Li agreed with Yu Jideng.

"The old man will go with you!"

Shen Li stood up and expressed his opinion.

A tacit understanding was suddenly reached between a frustrated cabinet minister and a panicked minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Yu Jideng just wanted to get everyone's approval during the court push, but Shen Li is a cabinet minister who has lost power. Under normal circumstances, he will always be suppressed by Shen Yitong. There is no way out. For this way out, he must try. Various methods, otherwise he would lose his position as a cabinet minister in vain.

He has never given up on taking back what he should have obtained from Shen Yiguan. Although it is difficult, he has not given up, and he cannot give up. This is what he has to do as a cabinet minister.

Yu Jideng saw Shen Li, and then at the other indifferent people, his heart skipped a beat.

After all, this person is also a minister of the cabinet. Right now he is on the verge of riding a tiger, and he gave himself a way to get down. If he doesn't get down, he really can't get down.

So the two hit it off.

Yu Jideng immediately nodded excitedly.

"Okay! All the lords in the hall, I never thought that there are people with strong bones! Old Shen Ge, you and I will go together!"

"Come along!"

Shen Li is very happy that he has gained an ally among the lightning and flint, and has taken the first step towards a resurgence.

However, obviously, this did not exceed Shen's usual expectations.

Shen Yiguan didn't say a word, and watched the two leave hand in hand coldly, his eyes were full of indifference.

idiot.

"Is it so easy to change what His Majesty decides? Yu Butang and Shen Ge are too impulsive. Opposing His Majesty at this time can only backfire and make His Majesty more determined. In this way, this matter will never happen again." There's no turning back, gentlemen, there's nothing we can do."

Shen Yiguan pretended to be slumped and sat down on the chair, looking very frustrated.

Those who stayed naturally knew Shen Yitong's plan.

"Old Shen Ge, you have to think carefully, once this is done, there is no way out."

Song Yingchang said softly.

"Of course I know, but this is an issue related to the state system. How can you hesitate? A title is important, but if the emperor allows it, the reward will go on. In fact, it is not something that we as ministers can obstruct. As ministers, How can you do such a thing?"

The big guys looked at each other.

That's right, but who of us didn't do it this way?

Of course, this cannot be said clearly.

"That's it, reply to His Majesty in my name, saying that I agree with this matter, and then... Chief Assistant, what do you think of this matter? Do you agree?"

Shen Yiguan turned his head and looked at Zhao Zhigao who did not know when he would "wake up" and squinted at the beautiful spring scenery outside the window.

Zhao Zhigao turned his head to look at Shen Yiguan, said "oh", then yawned heavily, and said, "It's fine for Shen Ge to make a decision. I'm old and lack energy, so I can't do anything anymore. Everything is up to you." Relying on Shen Ge is old."

Shen Yiguan cursed the old fox again, lowered his head and said softly, "Yes."

Then, Shen Yiguan said to the clerical officials beside him: "Go, in the name of the cabinet, draft a draft edict approving Jin's appointment of Xiao Ruxun as the Duke of Qin, and then send it to His Majesty for reading."

The clerical officer looked at Shen Yiguan hesitantly.

"Ok?"

Shen always looked at the official with dissatisfaction.

So the man bowed his head and went.

Zhao Shiqing frowned and said softly: "Ge Lao, is this really okay?"

"Is there anything wrong? Someone always has to make a decision, and someone always has to bear a bad name, but one day, you will know why the old man made this decision, and you will also understand the pain of the old man."

Shen Yiguan's words are somewhat obscure, but in the eyes of the people here, Shen Yiguan is probably talking about his own difficulties, saying that sooner or later everyone will understand his situation today, that is, he is seeking his own government in his position. mean.

But what Shen Yiguan really meant, they didn't know at this time.

Shen Yiguan's order was carried out, and a draft edict was quickly written. When this draft edict was sent to the palace, it happened to be the time when Shen Li and Yu Jideng were kicked out of the palace by Zhu Yijun's scolding. When they went out, the two were still arrogant, thinking that they had gained fame.

It was like this in the past, whoever was scolded the most by the emperor will have a higher reputation, because this is a warrior who "does not fear the superior" and a person with lofty ideals who does not "flatter".

In the current Ming Dynasty, as long as you oppose the emperor, resist the emperor or even insult the emperor, and then it is best to be angered by the emperor, you will gain fame. The harder you beat, the higher your reputation will be.

Even some speech officials who could not see the hope of promotion deliberately took advantage of the loopholes to find reasons to write performances to scold the emperor and the emperor's father, so that the emperor was so angry that he expected to get the imperial staff, so that he could instantly become famous all over the world.

When the behavior of insulting the emperor becomes a politically correct moral symbol, one can imagine the emperor's situation.
