On the contrary, Chen Xi went to the palace to resign from the emperor's cabinet, but others didn't even make a memorial, let alone to go to Chen Xi's mansion to make trouble.

It seems that everyone can accept such a result... Chen Xi exchanged the opportunity to enter the cabinet with the resignation as Minister of War.

"...The Minister of Personnel and Grand Secretary of the Jinshen Palace have precedents to follow." Li Li directly expressed his opinion when he visited Chen Xi.

As Li Jue said, the situation of being a Grand Secretary and serving as the Minister of Personnel had occurred many times in the Ming Dynasty, which was much more common than that of Chen Xi, the Minister of Personnel and the Ministry of War. Even the most picky censors could not find any fault.

However, Li Jue immediately added, "But if you are still in charge of the Minister of Personnel for a long time, there will be many opposition voices in the court at that time."

Chen Xi received Li Li in the courtyard on Xie Qian's Chang'an Street. When Xie Qian left the capital, he handed the courtyard to Chen Xi. However, in Xie Qian's tone, the courtyard was only temporarily rented to Chen Xi and could be taken back at any time.

Chen Xi poured a cup of tea for Li Yu and asked, "Why can't I be my job as a minister of the Ministry of Personnel and a cabinet?"

"Haha, whatever you say, the key depends on what the censor Qingliu said." Li Liu smiled, as if waiting to watch the fun, and did not take the matter in front of him seriously at all.

After Xie moved away, Li Li felt much more relaxed. There was no need for many restrictions in the court and the country. He could go to Chenxi for a cup of tea and chat for a few words.

Chen Xi is not as rigid as Xie Qian, nor as harsh as Yang Tinghe.

Chen Xi usually looks serious, but has a very easy-going personality, especially to friends. Li Liu is one of the few friends Chen Xi has made in the court.

Chen Xi smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that this cabinet minister is not as good as the Minister of War."

The two of them were not depressed at all while talking and laughing. When it comes to major events in the court, they also said it in a relaxed tone.

Li Jue did not regard Chen Xi as a minister with power in the court and the public. Others did not know Chen Xi, but Li Jue was very familiar with Chen Xi. He knew very well that Chen Xi never put on airs. He could tell him in person if he had something to do. Instead, when facing Xie Qian, Yang Tinghe, Liang Chu and others, Li Jue felt a sense of depression.

"Have you come to the cabinet to perform your duties?" Li Li asked.

Chen Xi shook his head: "No, I don't know how to face Shuhou and Chongsui..."

Li Wu comforted, "Shuhou and Chongsui are not outsiders. You worked together in the Zhanshu Mansion before, but now you are just reuniting... It's better. If you have any problems in the court in the future, you can discuss it carefully. Do you think the court is more elegant than before?"

“Elegant?”

Chen Xi couldn't help but frown.

Li Liu smiled and nodded: "Don't you think? I used to have too many restraints and had to look at everything I did. Now I've finally relaxed... The Ministry of Works has been very peaceful and orderly in the past few days, and there is a feeling of a new look at the top and bottom."

Chen Xi roughly understood Li Jue's statement. After lifting Xie Qian and Yang Tinghe's rigid and serious shackles, the working environment of the Ministry of Works became easier.

However, Chen Xi did not have a deep understanding. After all, the Ministry of Personnel is a serious yamen, and the contrast between the front and the back is not large.

"Zhihou, it's better for you to report your work earlier."

Li Jue reminded, "If there is a big deal, it will make Uncle Hou feel at ease to find you... Uncle Hou has always been easy to talk to, but he will not wear you with small shoes like someone."

"Who?" Chen Xi asked directly.

Li Li smiled but said nothing.

Although Li Jue did not explain, Chen Xi probably understood that the person Li Jue mentioned was either Xie Qian or Yang Tinghe, or both.

...

...

On the third day after Chen Xi received the imperial edict, he entered the gate of Wenyuan Pavilion for the first time.

Liang Chu and Jin Gui knew that he would come to the cabinet to Yingmao on that day, so they entered the palace early in the morning to wait. After Chen Xi came, they were free and unrestrained. The three of them sat down and chatted. Liang Chu took out the important memorials of the past few days according to the imperial edict.

Chen Xi waved his hand: "It's good that Brother Uncle Hou decides for himself. This fact should not be interfered with."

Liang Chu said: "Zhihou, you have been in the court for a short time, but you have a lot of experience. When you come to the cabinet, you can relieve a lot of pressure from me and Chongsui. If you ignore anything, it will be difficult for us to do things. How many memorials have you suppressed?"

Chen Xi looked at the office and found that the memorial was piled up to the height of the hill.

Each book has to be drafted, and this job is indeed not done by humans.

Chen Xidao: "After all, there are still errands to do in the Ministry of Personnel. According to Your Majesty, the official position is there."

"You should give specific opinions on those important comments, right?" Liang Chu seemed very persistent. "If you don't participate in the decision-making, do you really want me and Chong Sui to handle it one by one? How long will it take to delay?"

Chen Xi shook his head: "If it really doesn't work, report to Your Majesty as soon as possible and request an increase in the cabinet candidate."

Liang Chu said: "Is this really OK? I'm afraid that Zhihou, you just entered the cabinet, will Your Majesty not decide on the new candidate for the cabinet so quickly."

Chen Xidao: "The matter is done by others. Please ask Your Majesty first to see what your reaction is... Your Majesty should also understand the hard work of the cabinet ministers. Just relying on Brother Shuhou and Brother Chongsui, it is really difficult to handle all the memorials... I will try my best to help you do some scattered things in the past two days, and you also need more guidance from me."

...

...

Chen Xi never treated himself as an uncrowned prime minister.

He joined the cabinet as a beginner, in a helping manner, rather than giving advice on work.

Because Chen Xi and Liang Chu and Jin Gui have always had a good relationship, his arrival did not cause discomfort for both of them. He even felt that Chen Xi came in time, which could at least help them relieve the pressure on their shoulders.

The backlog of cabinet memorials did not form in one day, it was a manifestation of the serious shortage of cabinet staff in more than a year.

Xie Qian has long stopped dealing with specific matters in the cabinet and has only intervened in some key major issues.

As for Yang Tinghe, he has been lobbying the powerful and wealthy people everywhere in the past six months to enrich the political capital of the competition for the chief assistant. He rarely goes to the cabinet and is not diligent in his work. Unfortunately, the one who stayed in the cabinet in the end was Liang Chu and Jin Gui, who have been working diligently for the past year.

From this point of view, it is true that the emperor chose Liang Chu and Jin Gui, because the two of them did support the cabinet, which also allowed the court to have no chaos for a year without the emperor and Shen Xi, and almost all matters were resolved in a timely manner.

While the arrival of Chen Xi made Liang Chu and Jin Gui feel relaxed, they also felt "respected".

They originally thought that Chen Xi would imitate Xie Qian's attitude and show the inhumane nature of the superiors.

But Chen Xi had no airs at all, and did not intend to just discuss major events as the emperor said. At least Chen Xi first arrived at the cabinet, which made Liang Chu and Jin Gui feel that Chen Xi respected them very much and were willing to do practical things.

At the same time, they are not worried about the differences between Chenxi.

Because Chen Xi was suppressed too seriously before, even if she was under tremendous pressure, Chen Xi was not anxious. Many of the practices were recognized by the world, and Liang Chu and Jin Gui felt that letting Chen Xi replace Xie Qian and Yang Tinghe into the cabinet was the best choice. At least Chen Xi was not abusing his power while doing practical things.

They don't think Chen Xi is the kind of person who uses any means to make power.

...

...

The court was very indulging in Chen Xi.

Even though Chen Xi held two positions, no one said anything this time. Even the most demanding censor chose to remain silent, or turn a blind eye.

Chen Xi was not very popular before, but this just shows that Chen Xi never formed a clique for personal gain. After he suddenly took over the power, Chen Xi's extremely poor popularity was appreciated by most people in the court.

To be precise, it is not that Chen Xi has a bad character or is noble and arrogant, but that he was suppressed too seriously before, and few people make friends with Chen Xi.

Chen Xi also tried to avoid such things to avoid being called a clique.

Now Shen Xi has no opponents in the court and has never had any evil with anyone, but there are few people who get close to it, which makes the court feel the most comfortable.

I am not afraid of Chen Xi's suppression, because Chen Xi has no problem of party-to-party attacks, nor am I afraid of Chen Xi's shoes for anyone, because Chen Xi is not the kind of villain who likes to pick on tricks and make trouble for people...

After thinking about it, everyone felt that Chen Xi was easy-going and was one of the rare "neutral factions" in the court, and almost all forces did not participate in it.

At this moment, someone suddenly understood: "No wonder Xie Yuqiao was so picky about Shen Zhihou before. It turned out that he had planned this day long ago... Look at how beautiful Xie Yuqiao retreated without leaving any tail, and the court left for Shen Zhihou was so clean, so that Shen Zhihou could let go of his hands and show his talents!"

Because we all knew that Chen Xi’s biggest opponents were Xie Qian and Yang Tinghe. The two of them left the court at the same time, which means that Chen Xi is invincible in the court.

Some people will inevitably be more careful about Chenxi, but after a while, they realized that this worry was completely redundant.

Chen Xi is even more fair in dealing with problems than Xie Qian and Yang Tinghe, who have always regarded themselves as fair and just. Chen Xi's decisions made are more convincing than Xie Qian and Yang Tinghe.

After Liang Chu and Jin Gui and Chen Xi were together for a while, they also found that Chen Xi was stronger than the two of them in terms of talent and dealing with others. They said that they were more experienced, but in fact they were nonsense.

When Chen Xi helped Xie Qian come out to plan and deal with the government, Liang Chu and Jin Gui had not yet had contact with real power.

At that time, Xie Qian was not the chief assistant, but was already in the prime minister's affairs. Liu Jian and Li Dongyang threw almost all the court affairs to Xie Qian. Xie Qian was able to handle it in an orderly manner, because Chen Xi helped him. Xie Qian even recruited Chen Xi to Wenyuan Pavilion to help him review the memorials and draft the votes...

In terms of qualifications, Chen Xi can be said to be the senior of Liang Chu and Jin Gui, and he is not as good as his qualifications.

Just as Shen Xi gradually became popular and the court was in harmony, a major unstable factor suddenly came.
