Chapter 1264 High Quality Ministerial Conference
In the conference hall, Gao Huan sat in the middle hall and was the final decision-maker of the issue.
Seven congressmen sat on both sides. From the perspective of the system design of the Gan Dynasty, they provided advice to Gao Huan, but they also had the right to refute the emperor's decision, but they had never used it.
The formulation of the concession is a check and balance against the emperor, but this system is actually only effective for mediocre and weak emperors. It is basically a decoration for monarchs like Gao Huan.
Because a strong monarch often arranges his own people in the cabinet, so that the cabinet cannot meet the conditions for refutation.
At this time, the Councillor probably has many forces. Li Yan is going to retreat this year and is going to be transferred to the local area. He heard Sun Siko's speech and frowned slightly, but he did not speak.
Sun Sike was a veteran of the Yu Party. Seeing that he was about to step down as chief minister, he began to move closer to Du Yinxi.
In terms of politics, the Chu Party is biased towards domestic construction. In recent years, the Yu Party has offended many people. After Li Yan left the Central Committee, Sun Sike's life was probably quite difficult, so he took the initiative to show kindness to Du Yinxi.
Sun Sike said: "Your Majesty! Li Lingxi Prime Minister, Du Cixi Prime Minister, Yinzhou is in a complicated situation. We must learn from the previous lessons. My opinion is to give some supplies and weapons first, and don't send troops directly!"
"Yeah!" Du Yinxi continued: "Your Majesty, I agree with Sun Yizheng's suggestion!"
In politics, Du Yinxi tends to build domestically, livelihood with people and develop agriculture, and does not want the court to continue fighting wars.
After all, since the late Wanli period, the world has fought for forty or fifty years, and it is time for the people to take a breath.
Moreover, Yinzhou is far away from the Central Plains and is located thousands of miles away. It is within the sphere of influence of Spain. If it invests more, it will affect domestic governance and construction. If it invests less, it will lose again and cause trouble for his rule.
At this time, Gao Huan spoke, "Li Aiqing, you are the prime minister, let's talk about your opinions!"
Li Yan said: "Your Majesty, I respect the opinions of Li Zhengzheng and Du Cixi. After all, we have fallen into the matter of Yinzhou. We continue to invest and even expand it. We really need to consider it. Sun Jingzheng's opinions are OK. First, give some material support. Depend on the situation in the future, the court will not be passive in the future. However, from my personal perspective, we should still send troops to support. Jinshan Tuozhi was the policy of the court at that time. If it made a mistake, we would also be responsible for tens of thousands of immigrants!"
Gao Huan nodded, "I understand what I mean by my dear, but I still tend to send troops. Chen Yizheng, what about your opinion?"
At this time, the political situation within Ganchao was quite complicated. Li Yan wanted to go to the place, and the new chief minister was mostly Du Yinxi.
Du Yinxi's rise to power will definitely bring about changes in the political structure within the parliamentary house.
Du Yinxi's attitude now tends to build domestically, especially poor provinces outside the south of the Yangtze River, which require economic development and does not want the Kingsoft Incident to expand.
In addition, the failure of Jinshan Tuozhi was the stall left by Li Yan when he was in power. After the Chu Party did it well, most of the contributions also fell on the Henan Party.
Li Yan tends to send troops, but Jinshan Tuozhi failed, mainly because the emperor insisted, but he took the blame.
Now he has the opportunity to make up for this failure and wash away the stains on his body. He naturally tends to send troops to avoid the complete failure of Kingsoft Takusuke.
If Kingsoft Tuozhi fails completely and the impact of the collapse of land coupons, Li Yan will no longer have the possibility of returning to the central government through formal channels.
Chen Zilong's inspection and calculations were made in his mind that one was the chief minister who was about to leave the central government, and the other was Du Yinxi, who was about to serve as the chief minister. How did he express his opinion? It was a political issue.
At this time, Chen Zilong was struggling and suddenly realized his heart, "Report to Your Majesty, I mean to support directly. With the strength of Kingsoft Immigration, I am afraid that it is not the opponent of the Spaniards. I think that only supporting materials and weapons will not play a big role!"
Seeing this, Du Yinxi couldn't help but say, "Have you considered the chain reaction that could be triggered by the direct increase of troops. The court had just signed a treaty with the Western Barbarians in India to maintain temporary peace. If the court directly sent troops to Jinshan, it would inevitably put pressure on the Western Barbarians. If there was pressure, they would give feedback. At that time, it would be likely to cause their fierce reaction and a war broke out. The court now needs to rest. If the war expands and is able to send hundreds of thousands of troops, will it go to Yinzhou to fight? How to solve the logistics?"
Gao Huan heard the words and looked at the time. It was about noon. Then he said in a deep voice: "Let's do this, everyone have lunch first, so let me think carefully!"
When everyone heard the words, they immediately stood up and saluted, "I will obey the order!"
Gao Huan waved his hand and left the study. Each person discussed the affairs of the government to go to the toilet and wait for the meal to start.
At this time, outside the toilet, Sun Sike met Du Yinxi and smiled and said, "Du Cixi, your speech at the New Year's Conference is very exciting, which inspired me very much, especially about the construction of the official team. I am a subordinate of the organization and have studied hard!"
Du Yinxi smiled and said, "After the national unification, some officials were inevitably slacking off, thinking that the time for enjoyment has come, and they began to corrupt and degenerate, and lost their ideals. Therefore, the construction of the bureaucratic team cannot relax their vigilance!"
The two of them said, and returned to the meeting room, and the clerk had prepared the drinks.
Although there were party struggles within the Qian Dynasty, the way of struggle was different from the Ming Dynasty's verbal wars and rumors and slander. They were all very secretive. The high-level fights were fierce and would not let the people know.
In the struggle, both sides also grasp the real problems of the other party, by attacking the other party’s decision-making failure, or grasping evidence of the other party’s corruption and bribery, and then bringing the other party down.
Everyone is openly harmonious, and those officials who are dismissed and those who are being fought have problems themselves. If they are being fought against corruption, they are definitely not fighting for power at the top.
Everyone had a simple meal with a peaceful and did not continue to argue, because everyone knew very well that there was no use between them, and in the end, the emperor had to decide.
At this time, Gao Huan thought for a while in the study and finally returned to the conference hall. After sitting down, Gao Huan said in a deep voice: "I have considered it, and everyone has made sense. The court needs to be responsible, and Jinshan's military and civilians cannot ignore it. Moreover, if we withdraw from the land of Beiyinzhou, the entire Yinzhou will be divided by Western powers, which is not good for Daqian and future generations. Therefore, Jinshan cannot give up and must support it."
Gao Huan paused and looked at Du Yinxi again, "However, Du Zixiang's concerns make sense. Beiyinzhou is the core interest of the Western Yi, and they cannot give in. Once our army lands, it will inevitably lead to the expansion of the war. The Western Yi is close to Yinzhou, and they have developed Yinzhou for more than a hundred years and sent more than 100,000 troops to come. Their colonies in Yinzhou can also allow the army to complete the supply on the spot. Even if our dynasty only sends 20,000 to 30,000 people, the logistics will be difficult to maintain."
Everyone looked at Gao Huan together, and Gao Huan said in a deep voice: "So, I mean, you cannot directly send troops to the war, but you can allow it to hire our retired soldiers to go to Kingsoft and try not to expand the war."
The political consultants discussed for a day and left at dusk. Du Yinxi did not talk to anyone and got on the carriage.
Li Yan walked behind, and Sun Sike chased after him and explained: "Master, I can't stand it if you leave the central government. You know, we have offended too many people over the years. If I want to maintain the results in the court, I can only form an alliance with others!"
Li Yan nodded slightly, "I can understand it, but Du Yinxi is indeed not simple. After today, he will probably be the one who leads the political discussion!"
Sun Sike was a little confused about this, "Master, Du Yinxi is not doing well in front of His Majesty today!"
Li Yan smiled and walked out, saying, "No, he performed very well today. Look at the Seven Celebrities of the Council, who is supporting him except you? Even Yan Qiheng of the Chu Party did not say anything!"
Sun Sike is not a fool, and he understood as soon as he heard it, "So that's it. Du Yinxi was an old minister of the Ming Dynasty after all. He wanted to dispel His Majesty's heart. His final doubts were told that he could not control the cabinet!"
Li Yan glanced at him, said nothing, got on the carriage, and returned home sadly.
"Great greetings from the Prime Minister!" Sun Sike bowed and waited until the carriage left before he stood up.
Chapter completed!
