Gui Zi Scroll Chapter 777: Uneasiness, Consolidation
Chapter 2719 Gui Zi Scroll Uneasiness, Integration
There were endless discussions in the hall, all of which were evaluating and analyzing the reasons why these people voted for Feng Ziying.
Each vote can be talked about for a long time, and the discussion will come up with a son Chou Yinmao.
"Then why did Wu Daonan vote for Mr. Xiao Fengge again? Didn't it mean that they had a bad relationship when they worked together in Shuntian Mansion?"
"Where did you hear this gossip? Wu Daonan is not good at practical work. How much trouble and things did Xiao Fengge, the old prime minister, have blocked for him? He can hang out in pavilions, pavilions and pavilions all day long.
Letting yourself go is not the only way to be free and at ease. If it were me, I would be willing to do it."
"There is also the reason that Wu Daonan is a member of Ming Qi Gong (Huang Ruliang), right? Liu Ji Gong doesn't have a good look on him."
"I have to say that Mr. Liu Ji is also soft-hearted. If it had been anyone else, he would have sent Wu Daonan away long ago. How could it be his turn to vote for Mr. Xiao Fengge now?"
…
"The sixth vote is Lu Yanzhang, the minister of Guanglu Temple,..."
"The seventh vote is Dong Qichang, Minister of Honglu Temple,..."
"The eighth vote, Yin Jiahua of Shuntian Prefecture,..."
…
"Is this a collective surrender of Jiangnan scholars? Songjiang Gang, Jia Hua is from Huzhou, right?"
"Can Jia Huaneng be related to the Jia family of Rongning? If it weren't for Prince Teng of the Jinling Wang family to run for him, how could he have gone to Jinling to become the prefect?"
"Who knows? The Jia family in Jinling is a famous martial arts family, but I have never heard of the Jia family in Huzhou. However, Jia Hua's ability to adapt to the wind is very impressive, haha,..."
…
"The ninth vote, Cui Jingrong, the Minister of Civil Affairs,..."
"I'm afraid this vote is the most critical one. Is Mr. Ziqiang endorsing Mr. Xiao Feng Ge on behalf of the northern scholars? Then how should Mr. Ru Jung explain it?"
"There are talented people from generation to generation, and each has led the way for hundreds of years. One has to obey the elders. Mr. Xiao Fengge can also be regarded as a disciple of Ru Jungong. How come there are so many people that he can't let go of?..."
"Hey, this sentence is very powerful. Where did it come from? I don't believe you can come up with such a poem..."
"Haha, you are so ignorant that you don't even know the poems written by Xiao Feng Ge Lao in the internal reference?"
When Fang Zhenru's singing test ended, two Qiandu censors on behalf of the Metropolitan Procuratorate announced that this round of voting was 27 votes valid. Feng Keng won more than half of this round of voting and was elected. The noise in the entire hall finally began to cool down.
, and slowly calmed down.
Immediately, Xu Guangqi reported the final result to Emperor Xuanshun. Emperor Xuanshun solemnly took over the rice paper submitted in writing, finally confirmed it was valid, and announced on the spot. Zhou Peisheng, whose eyes were almost squinting with laughter, immediately used his seal.
, complete this confirmation process.
With the confirmation of the chief minister, the next step will be the reorganization of the new cabinet, but this requires a process.
The new cabinet is different from the past. In the past, basically the first assistant, second assistant, and group assistants have been determined and passed through a process. But this time is different. It is a real fighting game. Now the first assistant
Although it is certain, except for Xu Guangqi, who may stay in the post of second assistant and group assistant, and Gu Guanqiao's final destination, there is no conclusion yet.
Feng Ziying was also unsure about whether Gu Guanqiao and the others would stay. It depended on what the three of them thought. However, Feng Ziying felt that it might be difficult for these three to stay in the court.
After all, he was the leader of a faction of scholars. He was defeated in such a grand event, and he was defeated by a junior. In any case, he needed to give an explanation to the entire faction.
If you can't stay in the cabinet, how can you hang out in the Eight Departments? That's even more impossible.
According to past habits, if your health is still good, it should be the best place to go back to your hometown to write a book or open an academy to give lectures.
The court meeting ended, and the large group of people who were still immersed in joy, excitement, hesitation, confusion and even frustration left in small groups.
This is destined to be an uneventful day, and everyone has to consider what to do next.
Feng Ziying was also a little uneasy.
Although they had a tacit understanding with Xu Guangqi before to do this, and even made a lot of preparations for it, to be honest, neither of them had any plans on how to coordinate and deal with Gu Guanqiao and the others after they actually won the election. The factions behind it have given full consideration.
In other words, before this, Feng Ziying and Xu Guangqi were not absolutely sure of winning this battle.
Zuo Guangdou, Wu Daonan, and Zhang Nai were unexpected gains. As for Cui Jingrong, Wang Yongguang, and even Bi Ziyan, Feng Ziying didn't have much confidence in her heart. At most, it was a 50-50 split. Before that, Feng Ziying even There was no formal discussion with Cui Jingrong, Wang Yongguang and others.
Do the math with your fingers. If you exclude these six people and include the votes of Gu Bingqian and Guan Yingzhen who were purely pushing the boat forward when the final decision was made, what Feng Ziying is really sure of is only the five votes from his own system. , Xu Guangqi and Li Zhizao can barely be regarded as the second vote of the "Gewu" faction, the third vote of the non-mainstream faction (Southwest, Lingnan), the second vote of Chai Ke and Guo Zhengyu of the Huguang faction, and the northern scholars who are closely related to themselves. Sun Chengzong had one vote, plus three votes from the Songjiang Gang - Lu Yanzhang, Dong Qichang and Yuan Keli who worked through Jiangnan merchants.
In other words, Feng Ziying only has sixteen votes that are truly certain, and the other votes cast for him are only half-and-half, most likely between twenty and twenty-one votes.
Who would have thought that in this vote, people like Zuo Guangdou, Wu Daonan and Zhang Nai who had never expected the votes would vote directly for themselves, while Cao Yubian, Cui Jingrong, Wang Yongguang and Bi Ziyan also supported without hesitation After killing myself, the number of votes greatly exceeded the previous expectations, completely killing the suspense.
It is not an exaggeration to say that such a result was unexpected. It also brought about a problem, that is, there was no thorough and detailed discussion on the follow-up arrangements before. How to form a new cabinet and the subsequent involvement of the Metropolitan Procuratorate? The Eight Departments, the arrangement of the main officials of the important institutions of the Five Temples, and the distribution of power among the scholars in the North, Huguang, Jiangnan, Southwest and Lingnan.
There are also many complicated issues involved here. Where will the three Gu Guanqiao go? If they retire, who among the three factions of scholars will take their place, and whether the scholar leaders who take their place will join the cabinet and who will join the cabinet.
How to allocate the vacant positions?
Of course, it does not mean that a plan will be put forward immediately, but it must be put on the agenda immediately, and it needs to be discussed and a framework established.
All these require Feng Ziying, the elected chief minister, to negotiate with several parties.
