Fake Eunuch: Start by conquering the Empress Dowager

Lin Feng sat down and looked at the folds submitted by the various departments.

After flipping through a few books, his brows furrowed slightly, and he threw the fold in his hand on the table.

Most of the excerpts from these recommended officials come from the cabinet faction.

Six and three of the court's departments have been caught by them, and if the military department and the criminal department are also occupied by their people, this court will not become the cabinet alone.

Lin Feng categorically would not allow this kind of thing to happen.

However, after thinking about it, I was a little helpless.

Among the six ministries, the Ministry of Officials is responsible for the appointment, dismissal, promotion and transfer of officials, and the Ministry of Rites is responsible for the imperial examination and the selection of reserve officials for the imperial court.

This matter is really not easy to do.

"Godfather, Lord Wei asks to see you. "A eunuch came in outside the door, bowed back.

"Bring people to the council hall.

Lin Feng stood up from behind the desk.

Soon, Wei Xian, under the leadership of the little eunuch, came to the meeting hall of the celebrant eunuch.

"I've seen Lin Gong. "

Young Master Wei just came, my duke happened to be looking at the excerpts of the officials recommended by various ministries just now, and found that most of them were recommended by the cabinet faction, could it be that this imperial court, except for the cabinet faction, there are no available officials?"

Lin Feng's face was a little unsightly.

Of course, it was not against Wei Xian, but because of the chaos in the court.

"Lin Gong is angry, the cabinet faction has been fighting with King Ning for a long time, and almost all the departments of the court are controlled by the people of the two factions, if they don't choose to be dependent, there is almost no use, and over time, such a situation will naturally form.

Wei Xian's face was a little bitter.

At the beginning, he was not like this, he was in the position of a young master, but because he was not attached to the two factions, he had no real power in his hands, not to mention, and he did not have much right to speak in the court.

After all, no matter how much you put forward your opinions, you will be alone, or a few.

The cabinet and the Ning Wang faction have a large number of attached officials, and once they arouse the anger of the masses and are attacked by the crowd, not to mention that the opinions put forward are not adopted, it may be detrimental to themselves.

How many resolute and upright officials, aren't they so powerful?

Lin Feng sighed helplessly.

What Wei Xian said, he naturally understood.

Perhaps, when many officials first entered the official career, they still had the enthusiasm to serve the country loyally, but once they entered the big dye vat of officialdom, they would find that they couldn't help themselves at all, and gradually, they began to drift with the tide and lost their original intentions.

There is no right or wrong.

It can only be said that people go to high places, and water flows to low places, and that's it.

"These days, Xia Guan has been observing for a long time in the Hanlin Academy, and found that most of the talents among them are exaggerated and unusable, once these people take the position, not only can they not benefit the people, but they are afraid that they will be a disaster. Wei Xian said helplessly.

The Ministry of Rites selects officials through the imperial examination, and the selected officials are generally arranged to go to the Hanlin Academy to observe the government first.

Generally, after observing politics for two or three years, they will accept their fate as an official.

The Ministry of Rites, which is in charge of the imperial examination, is in the hands of the cabinet, and these officials in the cabinet are also representatives of the Jiangnan Shi clan.

This is also the root of the enduring success of these warriors.

"Don't worry, the filling of officials can be done slowly, and if the cabinet wants to let these people take the position, it will have to be approved by the palace. For

this problem, Lin Feng hadn't thought of a better solution for a while.

"By the way, the young master is here, it shouldn't be just for this matter, right?" Lin Feng looked at Wei Xian and got down to business.

Wei Xian pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Duke Lin, the officials are here for the selection of officials, and to nominate a person who can be of great use to Duke Lin."

Hearing this, Lin Feng's eyes lit up.

Wei Xian's character, he knows, can make Wei Xian say that it is useful, it can't be an ordinary person.

It's just that the officials in the court, he thought about it for a long time, and he couldn't think of who Wei Xian was talking about.

"Oh, there are still such capable ministers in the court?" Lin Feng asked.

"It's not an official in the court, but the former military department is still in the Shangshu Yu Zheng, this person is loyal, conscientious, and upright, just because he can't get used to the disputes in the court, he is disheartened, and he returned to his hometown a few years ago.

"The two of us have always corresponded, and we also exchange letters on weekdays, and after King Ning was executed, I wrote to inform him and asked him if he had any plans to make a comeback. "

Yesterday, I finally received a reply to Lin Gong.

Wei Xian arched his hand.

Lin Feng thought about it in his mind for a long time, and he had some impressions of this name, but he didn't know much about it.

Wei Xian stood there, looking at Lin Feng cautiously, waiting for his answer.

"Very good!"

"Since the young master said that it can be of great use, he can be allowed to come to Beijing, if he really has the ability that the young master said, this prince will definitely treat him well."

When Lin Feng said this, Wei Xiancai breathed a sigh of relief, and in his heart, he was secretly happy for this old friend.

"Young Master, can you know the worries in the heart of this duke?" Wei

Xian heard this, without the slightest hesitation, and immediately said: "The current situation in the court is chaotic, after King Ning was executed, the cabinet is extremely powerful, and Duke Lin needs to be able to use capable ministers and generals to check and balance the cabinet, so as to prevent the cabinet from dominating and affecting the court situation. "

The lower officials are willing to share the worries of Lin Gong.

Wei Xian's expression moved, and he said loudly.

Lin Feng nodded with satisfaction, and said slowly: "The cabinet controls the three departments, and the power is extremely powerful, and the important positions of the military department and the criminal department cannot fall into their hands again, if there is someone available here, the young master can recommend it." "

Yes!"

Lin Feng's trust and trust touched Wei Xian greatly.

After Wei Xian left, Lin Feng called Qin Zhong over and arranged to check the relationship between Wei Xian and Yu Zheng.

Wei Xian's ability and loyalty are beyond doubt, but this is correct, and it still needs to be reviewed and confirmed that there is no problem before Lin Feng can use it.

Of course, if he is really as talented as Wei Xian said, he will not only use it, but also reuse it.

Thinking of this chaotic situation, Lin Feng shook his head.

Now, he is in the army, supported by the hussar battalion and the fifth army battalion, and he will not have to worry about it anymore.

It's just that in this court, there is some trouble.

There is no hurry.

Take it easy.

If you can't find the talent you want in the court, you will look for it in the people.

Perhaps, we can start with scientific research, cut off the cabinet's monopoly on talent selection, and select some people you want.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Feng shook his head, leaving these chaotic thoughts behind him first.

Deal with the current business first.

When I returned to the inner prison, I sat down again and looked through the recitals.

When the cabinet elected officials, he simply threw them aside and dealt with other official duties.

picked up another copy of the fold, which was presented by Lu Tiangong, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

Originally, I planned to go to the Ministry of Industry to find Lu Tiangong to sell personal favors and dig up some rare craftsmen, but I didn't expect to see Lu Tiangong's excerpts.

After reading the content on the fold, Lin Feng showed a playful smile.
