In the public room of the Privy Council, Yang Jun became angry after being ridiculed by Lin Jue. He was a general who led the army in battle, and his methods were extremely ruthless. His men killed many people. For someone who can issue an extermination order, killing a few people is nothing.
. Being so aroused by Lin Jue, his blood surged up, and he immediately took the sword on the wall and slashed at Lin Jue.
How could Lin Jue be hit by him? He stepped back to avoid it and shouted: "Yang Jun, you dare to attack the imperial official in public and try to kill him? You don't want to be a privy minister anymore. Killing requires a life, and you will die if you kill me."
.I am not an idle man on the street, an ordinary citizen. I am the third envoy just appointed by the imperial court."
Yang Jun suddenly woke up, holding his sword and gritting his teeth, looking at Lin Jue, panting. He could definitely kill Lin Jue if he wanted to. Although he was old, he was still more than enough to kill Lin Jue. But what would happen after killing him?
Explain? Lin Jue is the third envoy of the imperial court. He kills court officials without permission. What awaits him will be extremely severe punishment. Can he destroy himself because of this Lin Jue? Could it be that what he has gained from so many years of hard work is lost because of impulse?
Destroyed? This is absolutely impossible.
"Lin Jue, I'll spare your life today. I'm warning you that if you don't understand the current situation, you will die without a place to bury me. I have spoken sincerely and I will treat you with all my kindness and righteousness. If you seek your own death, if I don't kill you today, someone else will."
Do it for you."
Lin Jue laughed loudly and said: "Privy Yang, you should worry about yourself. Once the King of Jin becomes the prince, what should you do? I am worried for you. Think about it carefully, if you want to go to Jin
The king apologizes, but I can introduce him to you. Come and beg me after you have thought clearly. Take your leave."
Lin Jue turned around and walked away quickly. Yang Jun stood with his sword in hand, his face turned pale, and he was gnashing his teeth in hatred.

The situation between North Korea and China changed beyond many people's expectations after the New Year of the seventh year of Qingfeng's reign in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Originally, after Fang Dunru and Yan Zhengshu committed suicide, many people thought that the situation between North Korea and China had been completely controlled by Lu Zhongtian and others. Privy Envoy
Yang Jun chose to support Guo Xu together with Lu Zhongtian. How could a person recommended by both military and political officials not become the prince?
However, the development of the situation was beyond expectations. After the Lantern Festival Night on the 15th day of the first lunar month, everyone understood one thing, that is, the emperor seemed to be dissatisfied with Guo Xu, and reprimanded Guo Xu in public. This was not done before.
It's unimaginable, especially when Lu Zhongtian has no opponent.
Later, the emperor's behavior of appointing Lin Jue as the third envoy against all opinions made many people understand the purpose behind this. It was the situation of this dominant family that made the emperor make such a move, appointing and Lu Zhongtian
Lin Jue's behavior as the Third Secretary-General, whose conflicts have been made public by Yang Jun and others, is more like telling everyone that the emperor is dissatisfied with the current situation in the court and hopes to break this situation.
In the imperial court, as long as there is the slightest disturbance, it can cause an uproar. After Lin Jue was officially appointed as the third envoy on the 16th of the first lunar month, the officials in the imperial court quickly took action. Those who were still with Lu Zhongtian and others not long ago
The officials who were flooding with flattery in front of them also immediately smelled the smell. Suddenly, there was a rush of traffic in front of the Lin Mansion, which was originally sparse. The officials who visited Lin Jue were queued up for several days. This situation happened to Lu Zhongtian and Yang not long ago.
The same thing was going on in front of Jun's house.
Of course, the performance of many smart officials was not obvious. They just did not go to Lu Zhongtian and others' houses to get familiar with each other, but chose to wait and see. The situation was unclear, and they did not want to make a decision too early. But they also did not want to
Then he continued to be the guest of Lu Zhongtian and Yang Jun. When Lu Zhongtian entertained guests on the 21st day of the first lunar month, the nineteen banquet tables originally prepared were served continuously.
The tables were not full either. The rest either didn't come at all, complained of illness or found various reasons to refuse. This is evident from this.
Lu Zhongtian was furious, but he could only sulk. The atmosphere in the Zhou court had always been like this, and no wonder others were like this. The emperor's attitude was a barometer. No matter how powerful Lu Zhongtian was, he could not match the majesty of the emperor. The emperor's
Attitude determines everything. Lu Zhongtian had no choice but to grit his teeth and endure, comforting himself with the words that time will tell people's hearts, and Lu Yao will know the power of horses. Those who directly rejected him were all on Lu Zhongtian's blacklist. The behavior of the wallflowers must pay a price.
Lin Jue's attitude towards these large numbers of officials who suddenly showed favor to him was that they would accept all comers. Although the little princess knew that these officials came to flatter her husband, she told Lin Jue that she should ignore these people.
.But Lin Jue’s purpose is to unite all those who can be united. Although the character of these people is worthy of contempt, he still needs these people to strengthen his momentum. And most of these people are villains. He would rather offend a gentleman than a villain.
People, Lin Jue doesn’t want to face the slander and frame-up behind his back all day long, and be bullied by everyone behind their backs. Of course, reuse is impossible, and their requests are just in the name of delaying, and they can give them irrelevant things.
It is absolutely impossible to try to use sweeteners to gain a position on your own.
Lin Jue wants to re-employ another group of people. Those are the people left after the abolition of the Ordinance Department. The speculators in the Ordinance Department have all been exposed automatically during the impeachment of Yan Zhengsheng and Fang Dunru. Sadly,
Yes, such people account for more than 50% of the officials in the Ordinance Department. But that also automatically selects half of Lin Jue's manpower. The remaining people may not be that good or have no ability, but one thing is for sure.
None of them were the ones who added insult to injury. When Shen Zhengsheng and Fang Dunru were in danger, although they did not dare to fight for their confidants and find ways to rescue them, they were able to maintain their integrity after experiencing Wu Chunlai's threats and temptations.
I have not slandered these two adults, so in terms of character they definitely pass the test.
After the establishment of the Ordinance Department, the Sansi Yamen was almost reduced to an empty shell. Except for some officials inside who were transferred to the Ordinance Department to work, the rest almost just maintained routine operations. After Lin Jue took office,
Together with Yang Xiu and Du Weijian, he immediately started a comprehensive restoration operation and caught up the abandoned affairs one by one. Du Weijian spent several days studying the old system of the Sansi Yamen and improving it, changing the previous situation of too many people and too many tasks.
This is what he is good at. After drastic changes and the adjustment of personnel, the entire Sansi Yamen became full of vitality in a short period of time.
Lin Jue told everyone at the meeting when he first took office that according to the system of the Zhou Dynasty, the two prefectures and the three divisions are equal-level yamen. The three divisions must take back their responsibilities and rights and cannot be controlled by others.
There is no need to be controlled by others. The money, grain and tax matters in charge of the Sansi Yamen are only responsible to the emperor and do not need to be responsible to any Yamen, let alone their control and command. These words are precisely aimed at the loss of power of the Sansi Envoy and the reduction of the government affairs hall.
In terms of the situation where things cannot be done by oneself, many people thought that Lin Jue was just talking, but they soon understood that Lin Jue was serious about it.
After rejecting several orders from the political hall to allocate money and repelling the officials who came to inquire, people finally understood that Lin Jue was not just talking, but sounded the clarion call to revitalize the Sansi Yamen, and the official start
A counterattack against other yamen that have penetrated deeply into the third yamen, taking charge of the east and west.
Faced with this situation, on the 26th of the first lunar month
At the court meeting, Lu Zhongtian, Wu Chunlai and others formally raised questions and asked the emperor to stop Lin Jue's behavior. When questioned by Guo Chong, Lin Jue produced the law on the establishment of the system of two government offices and three yamen after the founding of the Zhou Dynasty.
The text read out the scope of authority of the Sansi Yamen one by one, and compared it with his recent behavior of the Sansi Yamen in front of hundreds of officials. Finally, Lin Jue made a lengthy response.
"Your Majesty, colleagues. Our system of two prefectures and three divisions in the Great Zhou Dynasty was established by the late emperor and has been in operation for more than a hundred years. This is the basic system for the operation of our imperial court in the Great Zhou Dynasty. According to the provisions of this system, the two prefectures and three divisions in each
Perform his duties. The three powers of military, government and finance are separated and belong to the Privy Council, the Political Affairs Hall and the Sansi Yamen. The power and responsibility of our Sansi Yamen is to be in charge of the use of the financial revenue and expenditure of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and to reasonably plan the collection and use of taxes. This is what I am.
The powers and responsibilities of the Sansi Yamen at the beginning of its establishment. However, since the Jinxiu period, the Sansi has been reduced to requiring the approval of the Government Hall to decide on financial revenue and expenditure. This was not the original intention of the late emperor when he established the system of two governments and three divisions.
If the Sansi Yamen needs the nod of the Zhengshitang before it can act, the imperial court can carry out restructuring and bring the Sansi Yamen under the jurisdiction of the Zhengshitang. In that case, it would be logical for the Zhengshitang to extend its hand to take charge of the Sansi Yamen."
"However, this is not the case now. The imperial court has not carried out restructuring, so the two government offices and the three divisions are still the central yamen in charge of military, political and financial power in our Great Zhou Dynasty. In this case, Prime Minister Lu and Deputy Prime Minister Wu, you should understand that it is not the yamen of the three divisions.
Listen to your orders, but you have no right to issue orders over the jurisdiction of the Sansi Yamen. This relationship must be clear. The Sansi Yamen did reject some unreasonable requests from the Political Hall today, but that is the inherent authority of the Sansi Yamen, not
What are you deliberately trying to do? The Sansi Yamen have the right to make decisions on unreasonable financial and taxation matters within their own jurisdiction. Except for the approval of the emperor, they do not need to be interfered by any Yamen. If Prime Minister Lu and Deputy Prime Minister Wu feel that you
If we are in charge of the Sansi Yamen, we will ask the imperial court to carry out restructuring. Otherwise, we will not make any mistakes and we will not accept any unfounded accusations. If you adults in the political hall cannot understand this, you might as well think about it in another's shoes. If I go to the political affairs hall
Do you think I'm crazy if I tell the government to act according to my ideas? And what you are doing is exactly what I said. I don't know what my explanation is, Mr. Lu
Have you, Deputy Prime Minister Wu, and all of you gentlemen understood this?"
Lin Jue's response was logically logical and impeccable. When the system of two bureaus and three bureaus was first established, the three yamen were on an equal footing. At a certain period, the powers of the three bureaus even exceeded those of the two bureaus. The chief official of the three yamen and the three bureaus were envoys
There is a nickname called "Ji Xiang". From this title, we can understand that there was a time when the position of the Third Secretary was on an equal footing with the Prime Minister. However, later on, the Sansi Yamen gradually declined, and the incompetence of several Third Secretary made him become a political official.
However, judging from the original intention of establishing the two-government and three-division system, this is obviously contrary to the original intention. Regardless of whether this system is the most perfect and reasonable system, since it is a big
Zhou customization is no child's play. Lin Jue used this as the basis, which is irrefutable.
All the officials in the palace understood what Lin Jue said. Not only did they understand what Lin Jue said, but they also understood what Lin Jue said. This Lin Jue wanted to take back all the power of the Sansi Yamen that had been invaded. No longer.
Allowing other people to dictate to the Sansi Yamen. This also indicates that the Sansi Yamen headed by Lin Jue will no longer succumb to the power of Lu Zhongtian. A new force in the court has powerfully announced its rise today, which means
