Chapter 706
Huo Tao is not too old, he is only 54 years old this year, he is considered young among ministers at the cabinet level.

Moreover, Huo Tao would not tell others about his physical condition, and no one in history could have predicted that Huo Tao would "suddenly fall ill and die".

Only Qin Dewei knows that this year's Huo Tao is a ticking time bomb that may die at any time.

"Stay away from me!" Huo Tao yelled at Qin Dewei after standing still.

Qin Dewei repeatedly agreed: "Yes, yes, this junior will go away, Dazhong Cheng must not be angry."

Then Qin Zhongtang really walked away obediently, and found a place to stand on the other side far away from Huo Tao.

Everyone was dumbfounded, most of them had never seen such a well-behaved Qin Dewei.

After Qin Dewei and Huo Tao's episode, the scene became quiet again. Before the court push started, everyone once again focused on observing and judging the situation.

As we all know, leaving aside Wenyuan Pavilion, Hanyuan, and Chunfang, which belong to the inner court, it is only said that there are three main forces in the outer court.

There are too many vacancies, servants, etc., let's not count them. In a short period of time, we can only analyze the camp distribution of the officials in charge of the ministry.

Back when the emperor held lectures, the most successful official in the past five years, Xueshi Qin, once talked about big data and quantitative analysis. Some people learned it secretly, and they can use it today.

On Xia Yan’s side, Minister of Punishment Mao Bowen can be regarded as Xia Yan’s henchman, and can be regarded as one of Xia Yan’s henchmen in statistics; while Minister of Officials Xu Zan is inclined to Xia Yan, but he also has his own ideas, which can be regarded as half;

As for Wang Tingxiang, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, who used to be Xia Yan's old ally, but now only about a quarter of Xia Yan is left.

On Yan Song's side, Gan Weilin, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, was completely obedient and regarded as one; Huo Tao, the censor of Zuodu, was inclined to Yan Song, but he also had his own influence, so he was regarded as half.

As for the remaining Shangshu Wang Yiqi of the Ministry of Household, Zhang Chao of the Ministry of Rites, and three quarters of Wang Tingxiang of the Ministry of War, they are all in the same group.

Calculated in this way, the total value of the Ministry of the Outer Dynasty is seven (six departments plus the Metropolitan Procuratorate), plus the three deities of Xia, Yan, and Qin, the total value is exactly ten.

Then Xia Yan, a scholar of the First Assistant University, has a foreign influence index of 20.00!Occupy a share of [-]% [-]!

Yan Song, a cabinet scholar, has a foreign influence index of 20.00!Occupy a share of [-]% Five!

The external influence index of a certain unrecognized bachelor of mechanical engineering is as high as 30.00!Occupy [-]% of the share at [-]!
Xu Zan from the Ministry of Officials and Huo Tao from Zuodu Yushi each had an influence index of 5.00, each accounting for [-]% of the share, and the two had only five combat effectiveness.

From the analysis of this data, the person who most actively wants to change the status quo is probably Yan Song, and the person who least wants to change is Qin Xueshi.

Of course, this data estimate is very rough. One is because of the statistical sample problem. After all, the servant was not included in the statistics.

The second is that the weight of factors such as personal combat effectiveness and position criticality is not added. For example, if Qin Dewei's personal combat effectiveness is used, the index of the deity should be multiplied by two.

All in all, there are probably a lot of errors, which can only be used as a decision-making auxiliary reference.

At this time, in the middle of the corridor, Xia Yan and Yan Song, two elders who were evaluated by everyone, stood on the left and on the right.

Xia Yan was resting his eyes with his eyes closed, while Yan Song kept looking around the room, as if he was evaluating everyone.

While everyone was thinking about it, time passed by little by little, and when the number of people was almost the same, Xia Shoufu suddenly opened his eyes, coughed, and said to Xu Zan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials: "Let's start!"

According to the tradition of the court, this kind of personnel meeting is presided over by the Minister of the Ministry of officials.

After Xu Tianguan's opening remarks were over, someone couldn't wait to say: "According to the usual practice, most of the cabinet ministers are selected from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials, this time it's just as usual!"

Xu Zan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, was close to Xia Shoufu, and Zhang Chao, the Minister of Rites, was the teacher of Bachelor Qin, so who was the person who made this suggestion?
While others were still thinking, Yan Song suddenly expressed his opinion: "Zhang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is now serving the Holy Majesty, so it is logical to enter the cabinet this time."

Most people were shocked when they heard the words, why would Mr. Yan Ge recommend Master Qin's teacher?

Everyone knows that Mr. Yan Ge and Bachelor Qin are deadly enemies. A while ago, Yan Song angrily scolded "the desire to tyrannize Qin is insatiable" in public!
Yan Song turned a blind eye to the shock of others. In his eyes, the officials present were not classified by grade, nor by the importance of their positions. Any quantitative analysis of big data is nonsense!
Yan Song only believes in reason!There is only one way to classify today, and that is the degree of awareness of this cabinet opportunity.

The first type of people can see through the truth and realize that this opportunity to join the cabinet is actually useless or even a big pit.

Such people are very few, but they are all the smartest people. What they pay attention to is not joining the cabinet, but the real and beneficial position left by those who join the cabinet.

The other type of people, that is, the majority of people, on the contrary, are still keen to pay attention to the opportunity to join the cabinet, even if they are not qualified.

The emperor has been away from the court for many years, and the cabinet members have also been in Zhixiyuan to accompany the emperor for many years. This has led to officials in the outer court not being very clear about the cabinet situation, and they still have expectations for joining the cabinet.

Many people are still imagining that after entering the cabinet, they will immediately become the prime minister, participate in the maintenance, and take charge of the court
Yan Song is sure that Qin Dewei is definitely the first type of smart person. If Qin Dewei didn't even have this kind of sensitivity, he wouldn't be alive today.

Qin Dewei, who is on duty at Wenyuan Pavilion, should be very aware of the situation in the cabinet. The fate of most people after joining the cabinet is either to become cannon fodder, or to become a little transparency who has lost power!

His statement was for Qin Dewei to hear!
Although Mr. Yan Ge recommended Zhang Shangshu from the Ministry of Rites, but after the others came to their senses, instead of looking at Zhang Shangshu, they all looked at Qin Dewei.

Everyone knows that the key is not Zhang Chao himself but his student!

Qin Dewei looked up and looked around, and said in a daze, "What are you all looking at me for? You can talk about it if you want to, and I, Mo Jin, a future student, are here to listen carefully."

Everyone: "."

If you, Scholar Qin, don't express your opinion first, how can others speak in a targeted manner?

Because someone mentioned the two ministers of the "Ministry of Officials" and the "Ministry of Rites", the original host Xu Tianguan couldn't speak.

So the first assistant Xia Yan took over the host, and shouted to Qin Dewei: "Just say a few words first!"

Just now Xia Shoufu was also thinking about his own strategy, and he also has his own analysis method, that is human nature!
He believed that Yan Song would definitely target Qin Dewei.If you want to say who is most wary of Qin Dewei recently, it must be Yan Song.

Not to mention Qin Dewei, he would definitely regard Yan Song as his greatest enemy.Several years ago, Qin Dewei had been "criticizing" Yan Song in front of him, dissuading himself from promoting Yan Song, but it was a pity that he didn't believe Qin Dewei at that time.

But it can also be seen from this how deep-rooted Qin Dewei's hostility and rejection of Yan Song are.

So today, for me, the chief assistant, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight should be the best strategy, maybe I can wait for the opportunity to make a profit.

After being urged by Xia Shoufu, Qin Dewei said: "Then I will say a few words. Among the two ministers of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites, I think that Minister Xu of the Ministry of Officials has more seniority and is more suitable for joining the cabinet."

This answer was completely within Yan Song's expectation, but Qin Dewei was quite upbeat.

Someone put forward the custom of "the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites", and then Yan Song came forward to recommend Zhang Chao, which was to urge Qin Dewei to speak in the direction of Xu Zan.

Qin Dewei could not directly oppose his teacher Zhang Chao's entry into the cabinet, so he could only indirectly deny Zhang Chao by recommending others.

Then in this context, the easiest candidate for Qin Dewei to recommend is Xu Zan from the Ministry of Officials.

On the other hand, Xu Zan is a person who tends to Xia Yan. Joining the cabinet is equivalent to going up and down, and losing the most important officials in the foreign court. This is Yan Song's real plan, but it will be the best to say it first through Qin Dewei's mouth.

Immediately, Yan Song changed his words to "add the icing on the cake" and said: "What the scholar Qin said is very reasonable! After thinking about it, Xu Shangshu is still senior and mature enough to seek the country, so he should join the cabinet."

Others only thought that the style of painting was a bit weird. After Mr. Yan Ge recommended Mr. Qin Dewei, he actually began to pursue Qin Dewei's words again.

Xia Yan frowned. Of course he opposed Xu Zan's entry into the cabinet, but he stayed put for the time being.

He didn't believe that Qin Dewei couldn't see Yan Song's tricks, and he didn't believe that Qin Dewei would really be fooled honestly.

While thinking about it, Xia Shoufu glanced at Xu Zan a few times, and then he found that Xu Zan seemed to be eager to try and quite excited!

So Xia Shoufu didn't dare to speak out against Xu Zan's entry into the cabinet. This would easily misunderstand Xu Zan who was full of expectations.

Most people were still wondering why Qin Dewei didn't directly support the teacher to join the cabinet, when they suddenly heard Qin Dewei say:
"The candidates are just these two, and there is nothing to say. Let's vote, and count who has the most supporters before talking! If your majesty asks, you can come up with an explanation."

Xia Shoufu couldn't hold back immediately, and quickly shouted: "Wait a minute! Everyone hasn't talked enough, how can you be so hasty?"

He had a hunch that as long as the vote was based on the number of people, the people on Yan Song's side would not say anything, and Qin Dewei and his group might really "support" Xu Tianguan.

Although it is said that the vote has no effect, but don't really create a situation of "people's will" in the end, it will be irreversible.

Could it be that I made a mistake in my judgment today, and Qin Dewei and Yan Song conspired to cheat me?Send Xu Zan, his greatest supporter in the foreign court, to the cabinet?

Qin Dewei glanced at Xia Yan, and said again: "Actually, I thought about it again, Xu Tianguan is not suitable, after all, he is already old, almost seventy years old."

This time it's Yan Song's turn to frown. Did you, Qin Dewei, go back on your word and want to break the tacit understanding just now?Then he interjected and said, "Xu Shangshu is still in good health."

Qin Xueshi turned a deaf ear and pretended not to hear, "I said that it is inappropriate to be old, because there are a few inappropriate things.

First, the cabinet ministers now live in the Zhiwuyi Palace on a daily basis, and their daily life is relatively difficult, and it is difficult for the elderly to support them physically or mentally.

Second, I think cabinet ministers still have to pay attention to a level, and it is reasonable for new entrants to be a little younger.

Otherwise, it would be easy to be like a few years ago, when Fei Shoufu and Li Shoufu passed away one after another, the court was in constant turmoil, and it was difficult for the monarchs and ministers to find peace of mind.

Third, it is very difficult to arrange seats for those who are too senior to join the cabinet.If one is placed below the rest of the cabinet ministers, it would be a loss of respect for the elders; if one is placed above others, where is the respect of the original first assistant and second assistant?
In order to avoid the above troubles, after thinking about it, Xu Tianguan is not suitable for joining the cabinet. "

Xia Yan, the chief assistant who was unwilling to let Xu Zan join the cabinet, breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Dewei can cheat anyone, just don't cheat himself.

It is difficult for others to refute Qin Dewei's truth, or they are waiting for other big shots to come forward, and then follow suit.

Yan Song "warned" Qin Dewei: "Scholar Qin think about it carefully, if Xu Shangshu is not suitable, then it is Zhang Shangshu.

The conditions you mentioned can only be said to be disadvantageous, but they are not enough to show that Xu Shangshu is completely unfit. "

Qin Dewei seemed to suddenly realize, "What Yan Ge said makes sense, you can't be too demanding on others!

As the saying goes, when the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when people observe it, they will have no friends!Then I still recommend Xu Shangshu! "

Xia Yan: "."

Your surname is Qin, and there is no end to it!
I originally wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but now it seems that Qin Dewei is sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight?

So Xia Yan gave Mao Bowen a wink, and then Mao Bowen stood up and said, "If according to the conditions you just said, Zhang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites seems to be more suitable. What does Bachelor Qin think?"

This was a direct question of Qin Dewei's attitude towards Zhang Chao, and Qin Dewei had been avoiding this question just now.

Qin Dewei chuckled lightly: "If you only say that the conditions are suitable or not, I actually have the most suitable candidate in my heart!"

Yan Song turned his face and accused: "Could it be that you, Bachelor Qin, are thinking of nepotism? Even Zhang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites has shortcomings."

In most people's minds, the purpose of Qin Dewei's negation of Xu Zan is to pave the way for his teacher Zhang Chao.If Xu Zan is not suitable, then it's time to switch to Zhang Chaoshang.

Qin Dewei asked rhetorically: "I want to recommend Huo Zongxian! Where do you start with nepotism?"

Huo Zongxian is Huo Tao, most people were shocked when they heard this sentence!
Huo Tao and Qin Dewei are no longer just enemies, they are already in the category of mortal enemies, and Qin Dewei can still recommend Huo Tao to join the cabinet!
Until this time, most people felt the weirdness of today!
It was surprising enough that Mr. Yan Ge recommended Qin Dewei's teacher, but Qin Dewei backhandedly recommended his mortal enemy!
Could it be that in the eyes of these two, joining the cabinet is a poisonous thing?Can't wait for the other party's people to die?

Even Yan Song was shocked, he never expected that this Qin Dewei has no lower limit, he can even say the words of recommending a deadly enemy!
Xia Yan is also Huo Tao's mortal enemy, the kind of mortal enemy that put each other in the sky prison and almost cut off their official careers, but Xia Yan knew that he could divert the firepower, so he didn't bother to recommend Huo Tao!
No one wants their allies in the cabinet!As long as you enter the cabinet, the alliance relationship is often unsustainable!This is also one of the reasons why Xia Yan is unwilling to let Xu Tianguan join the cabinet!

Qin Dewei still didn't dare to go to Huo Tao's side, and saluted Huo Tao from a distance: "I, Qin Dewei, have always promoted talents and never avoided enemies. I sincerely think that you are the most suitable candidate to join the cabinet today, Dazhong Cheng!"

Then he said to the others: "In terms of qualifications, Mr. Huo is the Huiyuan of the ninth year of Zhengde, and his background is impeccable!

In terms of age, Huo Zongxian is a little younger, just enough to be under the two old elders, forming a benign order. "

Huo Tao himself was completely stunned. It's not that he didn't want to talk about the honor of being a civil servant in the cabinet, but he didn't hold much hope today.

One is that Yan Song, an ally, does not support it; the other is that he is a bit outdated, and his own power is not enough to support himself in the cabinet.

Unexpectedly, Qin Dewei, who had made a death feud, would stand up and recommend him, making the world magical.

Damn, it's really exciting!

 Today's state is on the verge of bottom, and the whole person is extremely depressed. The reason why there is an update is just to prove that I am not lazy. I don't know if I can write it tomorrow, and I may ask for leave to adjust the state.At this difficult time, I implore everyone to vote for the monthly guaranteed monthly ticket for June. The Dragon Boat Festival holiday will soon come, and there will always be newer ones.
