Chapter 220 Complaining Essence
Li Xin wanted to make this matter big, so big that even the assistant ministers could not stop the scene. At this time, the assistant ministers naturally wanted to make this matter big.
Because if they continue to make trouble, not only will their official position be lost, but their lives may be hung on thin silk.
It is obviously not in line with their political interests to continue making trouble with Li Xin, so they simply bowed to Li Xin.
What politicians are best at is never to help the world and the people, but to compromise.
As long as they involve vital interests, they can continue to compromise without limits.
Marquis Jing'an looked at the prime ministers quietly with his sleeves. He squinted his eyes and asked, "This is the first thing you do. You have no signs. How arrogant was he when he was bypassing my official position and transferred the commander of the right camp, Zhe Chong, to the capital?"
"This imperial guard right camp was handed over to my official position by the late emperor, with the purpose of maintaining the stability of the capital. The Dukes, including the Grand Commander, did not take the late emperor and I, the general of the imperial guards, at all, and they had to control the personnel of the imperial guards. Li Xin wanted to ask them what they meant?"
The smile on Li Xin's face was restrained.
"Will the Dukes betray Li Xin be weak?"
Chen Kuan sighed and lowered his head and said, "Taifu, what happened to me at the Shangshu Desk is wrong. We have also thought it apart. We can guarantee to the Taifu that if this matter is not an example, there will never be a second time."
"The imperial guards' right camp is still in charge of the Taifu, and the Ministry of War is also under the Taifu. Before the emperor takes power, the Taifu's official position will not be changed at all."
This is in silence with bowing his head.
The left prime minister of Shangshutai lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
"Your Majesty is only fourteen years old this year. He has never participated in the government affairs when he was in the Eastern Palace. It is really difficult for Your Majesty to let Your Majesty take charge of the government at the court meeting today."
"We are not greedy for power, but we really cannot bear to be lazy in the country. At this point, whether it is big or small is all in the mind of the Taifu."
As he said that, Chen Kuan looked at several assistant ministers, and then said in a deep voice: "Taifu, state affairs should not be abandoned for a day."
"Please go to the Taifu's mansion and apologize afterwards."
Marquis Jing'an looked at Chen Kuan with a smile.
"The diligent star, between the ages of fourteen and sixteen, it seems that the difference between the ages of fourteen is not very big. Besides, you are not at the Shangshutai. I don't know how many people in the court have sharpened their heads and want to squeeze into the Shangshutai. There is no one in the court, and state affairs will not be abandoned."
When you enter the Shangshutai and become the minister, it is the dream of almost all civil officials and even all scholars. If you don’t have sunnyness, you will be a little lenient. If you come here, you will be a lot of lenient. Among the more than a dozen ministers of the six ministries, you can go to the Shangshutai to do things. Without anyone, the court will operate the same.
Chen Kuan's face looked ugly.
"Tao Fu, there is no one who does this kind of thing!"
What politicians are best at is compromise, so politicians compromise each other. If you take a step back, I will take a step back and the matter will be settled. Unless one sided, they will rarely fight to the end.
Now the prime ministers have been forced to retreat by Li Xin for more than ten steps, but Li Xin is still standing there and is unwilling to retreat at all, so Chen Kuan said that he is not following the rules.
Marquis Jing'an smiled disdainfully and turned to leave.
"Did the Dukes crossed the Ministry of War to intervene in the Imperial Army matters by following the rules?"
"Since the negotiation cannot be reached, then don't talk anymore. Just wait until the emperor decides tomorrow. If the emperor stands on the side of the dukes, the official will leave. Otherwise, he will have to trouble the dukes to also roll out a roll of beds."
After saying that, Marquis Jing'an left with his hands behind his back.
Several prime ministers stood at the gate of Yong'an Gate, with their faces not very good-looking. Chen Kuan looked at Li Xin's back and groaned: "This person has been a favorite minister for ten years, and he is so arrogant!"
The Grand Governor Ji Lin frowned and said, "Shen Xiang, be careful of his words. Mr. Li worked hard and made great contributions in Taikang. No one can surpass his merits in terms of merits. It cannot be said that he is a favorite minister."
Chen Kuan gritted his teeth: "Although he has made contributions, he is proud of himself and has nostrils facing the sky. He has already threatened the emperor in the current dynasty!"
Yang Shu, the Zhongshu, who was the prime minister in Chengde Dynasty, stroked his snow-white beard and coughed slightly: "You guys, no matter how loud you shout here, it will be useless."
He sighed: "In the early nine years of Taikang, all the dukes were in court. We should know a little bit about what happened at that time. Even the late emperor did not do anything to him. We are too rash."
Gong Yang Shu was the oldest among these people. As soon as he spoke, the others became quiet. Ji Lin bowed to the old prime minister and smiled bitterly: "Good Yang, please give me some advice."
Gong Yang Shu said slowly: "I am already in my seventies, and I will be eighty in a few years. It doesn't matter whether I am an official or not, but I'm afraid I can't let go of my fame and fortune."
The censor Yan Shouzhuo lowered his head slightly: "Please give me advice, brother."
Gong Yang blinked his eyes and sighed, "It's useless to stand here. In my opinion, it's better to go to Kunde Palace. It's better to meet the Empress Dowager."
He said earnestly: "After all, our four assistant ministers are much more reassuring than one assistant minister."
The "A auxiliary minister" in his words refers to Li Xin. It can be foreseeable that if the emperor succeeds in power and several auxiliary ministers are dismissed from prime minister and dismissed from office, then the Taifu will definitely become the person with the most powerful voice in the court after this incident, no one will.
At that time, he would become the only assistant minister.
At that time, the power of the ministers will threaten the power of the king, which must be something that the king does not want to see. The emperor is young and the decisive role at this time is the Empress Dowager.
After hearing Gong Yang Shu's words, the prime ministers and ministers all lit up their eyes.
Chen Kuan even showed joy.
"Brother Gongyang is right. The four assistant ministers are always much better than one assistant minister."
"I'm going to Kunde Palace to ask for the Empress Dowager."
After saying that, several prime ministers turned around at Yong'anmen and walked towards the harem. Their identities were extraordinary. They were all people who could see the emperor at any time on weekdays. Several people walked together. The eunuchs in the palace immediately reported to each other, and soon alarmed Xiao Huai, the young supervisor of the eunuch, who sent people to Kunde Palace to report, while personally leading several prime ministers to walk towards Kunde Palace.
They met the Queen Mother very smoothly.
Originally, Emperor Yuan Zhao was also in Kunde Palace and told his mother about the court, but when he heard that several prime ministers came over, the emperor was unwilling to let people know that he was in Kunde Palace, so he avoided it in advance.
Several prime ministers met Empress Dowager Xie in the main hall of Kunde Palace. The white-haired old men slowly knelt down and called the Empress Dowager.
Empress Dowager Xie is only in her thirties, and she has never seen so many prime ministers at the same time. She suddenly stretched out her hand to help her in a panic.
"Please get up quickly, please."
Several prime ministers usually did not kneel when they saw the emperor privately when they met in Taikang Dynasty. At this time, they just walked through the motions and stood up after hearing this.
Queen Mother Xie forced a smile.
"Dear prime ministers, if you don't deal with the government affairs in the official office, why did you come to Ai's house together?"
Chen Kuan is the prime minister and is also standing in front. He bowed to Empress Dowager Xie and said, "Go back to Empress Dowager, if you have any major issues, please ask Empress Dowager to make the decision."
Empress Dowager Xie smiled and said, "You are all the humerals of the court and the pillars of the country. All the major affairs of the court come from the Lords. How can a woman from the Ai family decide for you?"
"Go back to the Queen Mother."
Chen Kuan gritted his teeth.
