Chapter 628
The vacancy of such a key position as Minister of the Ministry of War is a very important issue for the court.

Especially now that the southern tour is imminent, and under the background that stability is more important than anything else, the Minister of the Ministry of War who is in charge of military affairs is indispensable, so a new minister of the Ministry of War must be appointed immediately.

However, for most of the courtiers in the palace, today's situation was very unprepared. It was not expected that Zhang Zan would be dismissed on the spot by Emperor Jiajing.

Most people have no plans and no connection in advance. The most suitable candidate is almost the governor of the Beijing camp, Wang Tingxiang.

According to the usual practice, if the emperor didn't inquire, the cabinet scholar would not take the initiative to recommend candidates for foreign court officials in order to avoid suspicion of authoritarianism.

But today, Emperor Jiajing was probably too lazy to listen to the gossip of a group of officials, so he only asked the three academicians: "Do you have any recommendations for the cabinet ministers?"

The first assistant, Xia Yan, was hesitant to consider what to do. The second assistant, Gu Dingchen, didn't care much, so Yan Song spoke first: "Last year, Mao Bo Wen Nanzheng returned to the division. He hasn't been used yet. He can take charge of the military department."

Everyone looked at Mr. Yan Ge in surprise. Everyone knew that Mao Bowen had a close relationship with Xia Yan, but you, Yan Song, actually recommended someone from the Xia Party.

But the people in the hall are not stupid, after the initial shock, everyone also figured it out.

The behavior of Wang Tingxiang standing up to cover Zhang Zan's coffin just now has already shown Wang Ting's hope for the position of minister of the Ministry of War, but Wang Tingxiang is also Xia Yan's close friend for many years.

No matter who you Xia Yan supports, I'm afraid the other one will be alienated.In particular, Mao Bowen is also from Jiangxi, so he might be drawn over by Yan Song.

At this time, everyone was looking at Xia Yan, and everyone was curious about how Xia Yan would choose.

Not long after, Xia Yan said to Emperor Jiajing: "The king of the Ministry of Punishment has known about military affairs for a long time, so he can change the Ministry of War."

Emperor Jiajing didn't want to delay, so he made a decision on the spot: "If there is no other suggestion, Wang Tingxiang will change the Ministry of War!"

Although the suggestion was adopted, Xia Shoufu wasn't in the mood to be happy at all. He was completely kicked out of the shelves today.

Everyone understood Xia Shoufu very well, but he still didn't dare to take the risk of completely losing Wang Tingxiang and Qin Dewei behind Wang Tingxiang.

And everyone felt that, for Xia Shoufu, Qin Dewei's influence was already "too big to lose" to the point of being indispensable.If Xia Yan is a minister of power, then Qin Dewei is the minister of power among ministers of power.

Wang Tingxiang changed from the Minister of the Ministry of Justice to the Minister of the Ministry of War that he had been thinking about, so the position of Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice was vacant again.

Emperor Jiajing probably wanted to end the court meeting early, or he didn't have the idea of ​​extensive consultation, so he only said to the scholars: "Your cabinet ministers continue to recommend."

Chief Assistant Xia Yan didn't speak, he had already "recommended" a minister of the Ministry of War just now, if he recommended a minister of the Ministry of Punishment again, it would appear to be "greedy for power", which might arouse the emperor's suspicion.

So Yan Song came out again and said: "Mao Bowen has made great contributions to Nanzheng, but has no real job for a long time. He can make up for the minister of the Ministry of punishment."

This principle is correct, Emperor Jiajing adopted it and said: "Yes!"

In this way, today's most important personnel change has been completed, and the positions of the six ministers have been changed by two.

Qin Dewei was a little surprised by Yan Ge's performance, and he could only say that Yan Song was worthy of being Yan Song, and in such an emergency, he could still try his best to make some money back.

In fact, Qin Dewei wanted to make trouble just now, but the emperor only asked the opinions of the cabinet scholars, and no one else could intervene, so Qin Dewei could only hold back.

Emperor Jiajing's "lazy administration" was thought to be a special case today, but it gave Qin Dewei a sense of crisis.

This is already a very obvious sign. I am afraid that the weight of the Grand Master will become more and more important in the future, and it is necessary to have a layout in the cabinet.

Now Yan Song is the enemy in the cabinet, and Xia Yan is too proud and unwilling to be a tool, then there is only...
Next, the court meeting discussed the affairs of the southern tour. First of all, according to the usual practice, if the emperor left the capital, the crown prince must stay in the capital to supervise the country.

Even though the current crown prince is only a three-year-old boy, the crown prince is the crown prince, and the title of supervisor of the country cannot be lost.

Immediately, it was time to finalize the left-behind minister who would take overall responsibility. Emperor Jiajing glanced at the three great scholars before appointing Gu Dingchen as the left-behind minister to assist the crown prince.

It was also decreed that Shuntian Mansion, Daxing and Wanping counties, the censors and soldiers and horses of the five cities, and the guards at the gates of the imperial city should all obey Gu Dingchen's command.

As for the first assistant Xia Yan and the university scholar Yan Song, they all followed Emperor Jiajing to the south.

In addition, according to the usual practice, when the emperor goes out of Beijing, the six ministers usually follow him to ensure that he is still the political center of Ming Dynasty.

As for the other senior ministers, they all have to be arranged according to the situation, and who will go and who will not go must be decided.

Qin Dewei, as the third leader of the Hanlin Academy and the third leader of Zhan Shifu, enjoys the treatment of a quasi-servant, so he is naturally qualified to be arranged.

Qin Dewei looked at Gu Dingchen, the scholar who was staying behind, and suddenly took the initiative to play: "My minister, Qin Dewei, has received great favor from His Majesty, and has given him a prominent position in the East Palace. He is always respectful, and he is willing to stay in Beijing to assist the Chu government, so that His Majesty can feel at ease!"

This surprised everyone, they didn't expect Qin Dewei, a favorite minister, to apply to stay in Beijing on his own initiative.

Of course, Qin Dewei also had his own little calculations. Gu Dingchen stayed behind in the bachelor's degree, and if he stayed in Beijing, he could have a relationship with Gu Dingchen.

The main reason is that Gu Dingchen is gentle and charming, and has the attributes of a good tool man. It would be great if he can develop into the spokesperson of the current cabinet.

This idea is still very feasible. Gu Dingchen is from Kunshan, Suzhou, and Qin Dewei is from Nanjing. They are both from Southern Zhili anyway.

Moreover, Qin Dewei has always had a good relationship with Suzhou scholars, and he is an old friend with Wen Zhengming and Wang Shizhen's father, and he has a very good mass foundation for making friends with Gu Dingchen.

In addition, Qin Dewei really didn't want to go out of Beijing with him. The preparations for this southern tour were hasty, there were frequent accidents on the way, and the supplies along the way were not very good.

All in all, the journey was too hard, and it was easy to be used as a punching bag by Emperor Jiajing's anger.

As for the great achievement of rescuing Emperor Jiajing from the fire in the palace, Qin Dewei just wanted to say that it was a life-saving effort, fire and water were ruthless, and if something went wrong, people would die!

After Qin Dewei finished playing to Emperor Jiajing, he saw Gu Dingchen come out to play in a panic and said: "Qin Dewei has extensive knowledge and is familiar with mountains and rivers, geography, customs, customs, and customs, so he is more suitable for accompanying him on a southern tour!"

Qin Dewei looked at Gu Dingchen a little angrily, what do you mean?Young master, I kindly stay with you, is this your attitude?

But Gu Dingchen didn't feel any kindness at all, he just felt scared, if Qin Dewei stayed in Beijing, who would have the final say in the capital?Who is responsible for the problem?

Before Qin Dewei could say anything, Xia Shoufu and Mr. Yan Ge suddenly said: "Qin Dewei should not stay in Beijing!"

The three great scholars stopped Qin Dewei from staying in Beijing and forced Qin Dewei to accompany him on the southern tour. This unprecedented unified attitude surprised the rest of the people.

The elders also have their own worries. If the emperor, the chief assistant, and the six ministers all leave the capital, the upper echelons of the imperial court in the capital will basically be empty.

Who would dare to put Qin Dewei in such an environment?What should I do if Qin Dewei accidentally steals the back road?
Especially Yan Ge, he was worried that after returning from Huguang, he would become an old man who lost his only child.

　The symptoms have eased a little, so let’s get up and write something. This year, spring has started. Acute bronchitis last month, and acute tonsillitis this month. I’ve never had it before. Could it be that my resistance has begun to decline as I get older?
