Chapter 640 640 Competition, provoking a dispute in the court
At this moment, the emperor's eyes were filled with the process and responsibility letter written by Ji Yunkai, and he didn't even look at Ji Lan, let alone care about her mood at the moment.
The emperor said to Ji Lan: "I took these things." and left Ji Lan's palace. He didn't notice anything unusual about Ji Lan, nor did he notice that there were many things missing from Ji Lan's palace, let alone notice.
Ji Lan's mood was wrong.
Ji Lan stood there blankly, crying and then laughing, and the smile was even uglier than the cry.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." The maids beside Ji Lan were frightened. Seeing Ji Lan staying still, they all pulled Ji Lan's sleeves violently, but Ji Lan seemed to have lost his soul and remained motionless.
…
The maids were frightened, crying and calling for the imperial doctor, and some ran to find the emperor, hoping that the emperor would come and see Ji Lan. However, the emperor was busy summoning six ministers and had no time to care about Ji Lan's affairs.
The emperor felt as if he had found a treasure when he received Ji Yunkai's division of labor map. After reading it carefully, he was unwilling to wait for a quarter of an hour. He immediately summoned the six ministers to discuss with them the promotion of this method in the six ministers.
People who can get to the position of minister in the six departments are all human beings. They can naturally see the benefits of Ji Yunkai's method, but...
What they see more of is the disadvantages of this method and the constraints it may bring to them.
Just kidding, if they write down the specific work process and break it down clearly one by one, is it still necessary for their minister to exist?
Let’s not talk about whether we have rights or not. Let’s just break things down so that even outsiders can understand the work of various ministries and commissions. They may be replaced by others at any time, and they won’t be important at all, okay!
"Your Majesty, although this method is good, it is not suitable for promotion in the imperial court." As soon as the six ministers finished reading, they exchanged glances in a tacit understanding, and the minister of official affairs stood up and answered on behalf of everyone.
They are usually political enemies, but when it comes to safeguarding each other's common interests, they are natural allies. Especially when wrestling with the emperor, most of the time they have a tacit understanding of a united front.
"Why is it not suitable?" The emperor felt as if he had been showered with cold water, and the excitement and excitement in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace.
"Your Majesty, the work of the Sixth Department is very complicated and cannot be explained clearly by a simple flow chart." Just kidding, if this flow chart and responsibility letter are to be promoted in the Sixth Department, can the people in the Sixth Department still be as leisurely as they are now?
There is also the regulation that requires anyone who fails to complete the affairs under their name to be publicized within the stipulated time, which simply creates internal conflicts.
If any of them fails to complete the work within the time limit due to some accident, everyone inside and outside the government will know about it. This is simply trampling their faces under their feet. If they really want to be publicized, they will have no face in the officialdom in the future.
mix.
"Your Majesty, many things in the six departments are completed by the cooperation of many people, and one person often has to do the work of two or three people. It is simply impossible to assign everything to everyone. People in each department have many and complicated affairs every day.
, and there are so many sudden incidents that it is really impossible to pinpoint every incident to the specific person." The Minister of the Ministry of Revenue also stood up, with a square face, honest and reliable.
It was because of his honest and honest face that he held the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue for decades.
"Your Majesty, outsiders don't know about the affairs of the Ministry of War, but I know it. The ministers and junior officials of the Ministry of War are busy, and it is common for them to sleep in the Ministry of War for ten and a half months, and... everyone is burdened with
For four or five things, it is really difficult for them to clarify the procedures one by one."
"Your Majesty, there are many matters in the Ministry of Personnel that involve secrets. It is impossible to disclose them to the public. Many things can only be..."
…
As if they had made an appointment, the ministers of the six ministries all came up with reasons one after another so that the emperor could understand that the flow chart and responsibility letter he mentioned were child's play. It was fine for organizing palace banquets, but it was almost impossible to use them in the six ministries.
.
Ordinarily, the Ministry of Rites is the most suitable for promotion. When it comes to major sacrifices and ceremonies, the Ministry of Rites has its own set of procedures, and everyone is responsible for all matters. However, the Minister of Rites also said: "Your Majesty, for thousands of years, the six departments have
We have our own rules and a set of operating methods, and if we change them rashly, I am afraid it will cause panic in both the government and the public."
Reform is never simple, and the emperor thought things were too simple.
Although the emperor's control over the court is stronger than in the previous two years, that is because the emperor has not touched the interests of the ministers. Once the emperor touches the interests of these ministers, they will never be so easy to talk to.
"So, this method is no longer feasible in the Six Divisions?" The emperor suppressed the anger in his heart and asked.
He admitted that he was too reckless in doing this. He didn't think about it in advance. When he saw a useful method, he wanted to promote it in the court, but he forgot that this method was beneficial to him as the emperor, but it was not a good thing for the six ministers.
.
The promotion of this method is equivalent to putting a layer of shackles on their heads, which not only limits their rights, but also weakens their own role, making them replaceable at any time.
No one would agree with this.
However, even if everyone in the court disagrees, he still wants to promote this method. Only by promoting this method one by one can he fully grasp the power and replace people at any time when they are disobedient without worrying about it.
This move will affect the normal operation of the court.
"Returning to the emperor, although this method is good, it is not suitable." It is rare for the six ministers to agree with each other and cooperate with each other tacitly.
"Okay, I understand, you all can go down." After calming down, the emperor also understood why the six ministers were so opposed to this method, but...
The more they rejected it, the more he wanted to promote it. He didn't believe that Ji Yunkai could use this method to mobilize the clan princesses and older princesses, and scare them into going to the palace for help. There was no reason why he couldn't deal with the six tribes.
As long as he, like Ji Yunkai, first figures out the procedures of the six departments and writes down the responsibilities, these people will have no excuse even if they want to say no.
"Your Majesty, please kneel down." The six ministers looked serious and withdrew respectfully.
They are all human beings, so they naturally understand that although the emperor has given in, he still wants to promote this method in his heart.
Thinking of Ji Yunkai who proposed this method, the six ministers gritted their teeth with hatred. If Ji Yunkai had not been honored as Princess Yanbei, even if they could not kill her, they would have joined forces to get this person out of the capital.
This woman is simply a troublemaker.
However, they can't attack Ji Yunkai, but they can ruin the palace banquet. As long as they show the facts to the emperor, the division of labor chart and flow chart are of no use at all, even if the emperor wants to promote this method.
After all, facts speak louder than words.
The eyes of the six people met in mid-air and quickly moved away...
Although it was only a moment, it was enough for them to understand each other's thoughts, and it was enough for them to understand what they should do next... (To be continued)
