Chapter 443: I will kill this thief for the Qing Dynasty!
In addition to liking six and eight, Han people also like whole numbers. There is nothing wrong with this.
More and more Manchu and Han officials are entering the palace, which represents the new history and the unity of the Eight Banners. The conference is about to be held grandly.
Looking at the time, it was still a while later, and the old rich man secretly called his six sons and his wise brother Tongse to the imperial tea room next to the main hall.
After letting the two teenage eunuchs go out, the three giants discussed the replacement of the military minister and the six Manchu and Han ministers.
This is actually the issue of the formation of the new government team. In response to this issue, Jia Liu put forward a principle, which is "stability overrides everything."
"What's the meaning?"
Uncle Se didn’t quite understand what he heard.
Jia Liu further explained that the palace had just experienced two major events and so many people had died. People must be in panic now. Therefore, the main task of the three of them is to stabilize the situation, appease people, and let the heart of the Qing Dynasty start to work again.
We can't carry out drastic reforms and appoint private individuals, which will not only paralyze the government, but also make people panic again, which is actually not a good thing for the Qing Dynasty and the three of them.
"Yes, what Shikai said makes sense, don't act too hastily."
The old man nodded while his face was not red at all, and he did not feel at all guilty about punching the emperor twice in a hasty manner.
Uncle Se thought for a while and thought that what his cousin said was reasonable. Anyway, the emperor was in their hands, so everything should be done slowly. It would be ugly to act too hastily.
The old rich man used his fingers to introduce the six Manchu and Han ministers to the six wise brothers.
Six Manchu and Han Dynasty ministers, a total of twelve people.
Among them, Man Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was co-authored by Lao Fu himself, Yi Letu, the Man Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was his brother-in-law, Chuoktuo, the Man Shangshu of the Ministry of Works, Yinglian, the Man Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, Yonggui, Man Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel,
It's Asha.
On the Han Shangshu side, Cao Xiuxian was in the Ministry of Rites, Ji Huang was in the Ministry of Works, Cui Yingjie was in the Ministry of Punishments, Yuan Shoudong, the Minister of Husbandry and Aircraft, was concurrently in charge of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and Cheng Jingyi was in the Ministry of Personnel.
Except for Lao Fu and Iletu, all the twelve ministers were promoted and valued by Qianlong.
So these people actually have to be replaced.
But you cannot replace them all at once, you have to replace them in batches, one by one.
The old man proposed to start replacing people from the Ministry of War next month.
As a political ally of the "Big Three" and a key member of the Mutual Aid Association, Iletu will definitely continue to serve as Minister of War. The old man is also preparing to use Iletu as the imperial minister, the commander of the White Banner of Manchuria, and the military aircraft department when necessary.
walk.
Cai Xin, the Minister of the Han Dynasty, was a Jinshi in the first year of Qianlong's reign. Six years ago, he was also the Minister of the Ministry of War and in charge of the affairs of the Imperial College. He was granted the privilege of riding horses in the Forbidden City. He was a Han official whom Qianlong trusted greatly.
A velvet-knot crown was given to him.
Upon hearing that Cai Shangshu was so highly regarded by Qianlong, Jia Liu immediately became unhappy and said that he would find two censors to impeach Cai Xin in a few days and tell him to get out.
The uncle and the rich man both nodded.
"It is up to the eldest brother and the uncle to decide who will be replaced by the Minister of the Ministry of Etiquette. I have no one to recommend. However, I think that the Minister of Rites and Manchu will be replaced by Queeni. In addition, Asiha of the Ministry of Civil Affairs is willing to lend his support and can be observed."
Jia Liu's attitude was very clear, he wanted the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials.
He didn't ask how to change the four departments of household, work, punishment, and military. He just wanted to do whatever the perverted uncle and the rich brother did.
Moreover, in the Ministry of Rites, he only needs to satisfy the ministers, while the choice of the minister of the Han Dynasty is decided by the eldest uncle and his eldest brother.
The reason why Queenie was recommended to be the Minister of Rites was because the Ministry of Rites was in charge of the relocation and burial of the Empress Dowager's spirit. This matter, together with the opening of the Holy Ancestor's Underground Palace, was a major event that Jia Liu had been plotting for a long time. He had to have a reliable person to help him preside over it.
OK.
The Ministry of Rites is originally a Qingshui yamen. Although it is noble, its position is limited. The old rich man is now the foreman of military aircraft, the minister of bodyguards of Zhengbai Banner, the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the minister of the vassal academy, and the governor of Manchuria of Zhenghuang Banner. He certainly does not want to be in power anymore.
In charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, he immediately agreed that Queenie should succeed him as the Minister of Rites.
However, Lao Fu had different opinions on retaining the post of Minister of Civil Affairs, Asiha. He believed that this person was greedy, incompetent, as timid as a mouse, and a complete waste.
Uncle Se also said that the Ministry of Personnel is the head of the six departments, and like the Lord of Hell, it is responsible for the promotion and performance of officials in the world. How can such an important position be occupied by a waste.
Jia Liu did not agree with this opinion. He reminded the old man and the uncle: "What we want is waste."
"Um?"
The rich man and the old man looked at each other, both of them showing that this was the case.
The matter was settled like this. The three giants quietly walked out of the tea room, went their separate ways, and then walked into the main hall from different directions and in different shifts amidst the sound of bells and drums.
The first to appear were the leaders of the Military Aircraft Department.
There were originally four Manchu military ministers, namely Fulong'an, Suolin, Qinggui, and Heshen. Now that Fulongan is dead and Heshen has not returned, only Suolin and Qinggui are left.
Suo and Qing performed quite well during the clan rebellion and last night's restoration incident. In both incidents, they focused on participation and had no decision-making power.
This cannot be blamed on the two military and aircraft ministers being disloyal to the emperor. In fact, although the military and aircraft ministers are extremely noble and powerful, they are disconnected from the grassroots.
That is to say, they who are at the top of the leadership cannot command any grassroots troops after a major incident.
His influence on the incident was even less than that of Hong Dade, who was idle at home.
As a result, it is naturally unable to play its intended role. It is like a mascot that is played with by the clan members for a while, and then by a rich old man of the same color who has contributed to the restoration.
This incident fully illustrates that whether in times of war or in times of peace, the barrel of a gun will always determine the top leadership.
The old man has been promoted to Minister of Military Aircraft, so the Manchu military aircraft leadership team in Beijing currently only has three people.
On the side of the Han military aircraft, there used to be three military ministers: Yu Minzhong, Yuan Shoudong, and Liang Guozhi, and they are still three today.
If you want to vote, it will be three to three, and there will be no difference.
Therefore, this situation must be broken.
Yu Minzhong's elimination is inevitable, and He Shen's elimination will also become a foregone conclusion.
After all, the Big Three, Lao Fu, Liu Zi, and Uncle Se, do not allow anyone who is more loyal to the emperor than themselves to affect everyone's determination and mood to serve the country in the military department.
Jia Liu communicated with the old rich man, Mr. Se, and agreed that He Shen should continue to be the left minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. The former minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs would also continue to work. Except for the dismissal of the minister of military aircraft, all the other official positions awarded to him by Qianlong would be retained.
The wise brother of the six sons has spoken, and the old rich man of the same color will definitely sell this face.
The positions in the court hall are obvious, with one for the military aircraft department, one for the six departments, one for the Metropolitan Procuratorate, one for the Lifan Yuan, and one for the Eight Banners Dutong Yamen and officials from other Yamen in Beijing.
They are very distinct from each other.
There were also a lot of clan members, most of whom were under the Five Banners. There were several princes and county kings, and there were also a large group of Gushan Beile and Beizi. But except for the Zhenglan Banner leader Xinjun Wang Chunying, the other four flag masters were
Not one is there.
Originally, most of the commanders and deputy commanders of the Twenty-Four Banners were not present, but there were many more faces that had never appeared in the court.
Especially on the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, many people with titles but no official positions actually stood arrogantly with the Eight Banners of Manchu and Mongolia. The group of guys headed by them looked more impressive than the Tutong.
Moreover, everyone noticed that only a dozen people came to the Three Banners, and several of them were the sons of Qianlong.
Qianlong, who was "waiting" at the back, also saw the blank area of the upper three flags, and his heart froze. Just when he was about to ask what was going on, Xigui, the military officer with the yellow flag beside him, said in a dull voice: "Your Majesty, what should I do?
It’s time to go to court.”
Qianlong, who suppressed his anger, glanced at Xigui and walked to the main hall with a straight face, accompanied by two newly selected eunuchs who came to serve him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Qianlong appeared in front of his ministers, Gushanbeile Yongzhuang exclaimed: "Why is this Han not dead yet?"
As soon as these words came out, the main hall was shocked. Beizi Yongju, who was behind Yongzhuang, hurriedly pulled his brother. He didn't want his brother but angrily rushed out of the crowd and looked at all the clans: "I love Xinjieluo not yet.
Die Jue, how can I let a Han be my lord of Manchuria!"
After saying that, he clenched his fist and rushed towards Qianlong, shouting: "I will kill this thief for the sake of the Qing Dynasty!"
