Chapter 221 Shen Shixing's Choice

Don’t you pass on the orders to Shuntian Mansion?

Shen Shixing quickly mobilized his head, and in fact, he was most afraid of dealing with the emperor. He encountered such a problem. If there were previous cases to help, no matter how big it was, it would be a small matter.

Even if there is a famine or someone rebellion, if there is a famine, you will send money and food to provide relief; if someone rebells, you will send troops to suppress the rebellion. The court has customized the matter, and all departments and government agencies know what to do.

But if you encounter something that is unknown to the emperor and the emperor has unknown intentions, it will be very bad.

If you guess correctly what the emperor is going to do, it's okay, but if you guess wrong, then you're waiting to be disliked by the emperor! Although Shen Shixing didn't guess what Zhu Yijun was going to do, he knew what to do.

"What does Your Majesty mean?" Shen Shixing bowed and said hesitantly.

His tone was still not finished, and his words were full of requests, and his attitude was firm, as if he would listen carefully and do as long as he said it himself. Zhu Yijun was shocked immediately.

When did my Cabinet Grand Secretary have this acting skills?

After clearing his throat, Zhu Yijun then spoke: "I am going to send an official to command the city censor, clean up the capital city and kill this bad atmosphere."

"The yamen was named the Censor of the Five City Censors, and was appointed as the deputy Chief Censor of the Censorate."

Although he didn't know what the emperor was going to do, Shen Shixing didn't think it was a big deal. It would be no big deal to set up a separate Censorate of the Five City Censorate.

"I received the order. After I returned, I sent the order to select a site for the Ministry of Works, and sent the order to allocate money and grain, and sent the order to mobilize personnel to build the Censorate of the Five City Capital as soon as possible."

Shen Shixing bowed and said in an extremely sincere tone.

Anyway, this is no big deal. It’s nothing more than spending more money and food. Now the court has money, so I don’t care about this little money and grain. Even if I establish the Censor’s Office in the Five Cities? Who can do a ruthless move in the capital?

Do you know who is standing behind? The streets are full of honors and honors, and civil servants are everywhere. If you touch one, you will be able to drink a pot. If you are provoked, you can have a good life?

Anyway, things are just like this, and there is nothing wrong with making the emperor go smoothly, so Shen Shixing performed very well. As long as the emperor is happy, it is not easy to argue with the emperor for small matters.

"So great!" Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "I have an idea about the candidate for the Censor of the Five City Censors."

Shen Shixing was stunned and immediately understood that the emperor wanted to arrange someone, but this was not a big deal. It was not easy to be an official on the ground of the capital, let alone the position of the Censor of the Five Cities. If the emperor likes, let him use it well.

"Please tell me!" Shen Shixing bowed and said.

"I want to use Hai Rui." Zhu Yijun nodded again with satisfaction, and then said, "Hai Rui has done a good job in Daxing County, and he is older, so I just want to transfer him to the capital."

In fact, when he heard Hai Rui's name, Shen Shixing was already stunned.

The previous things can also be linked together. The emperor is going to use Hai Rui. The purpose is very obvious. This is to treat some people in the capital. Obviously, some things done by some people made the emperor dissatisfied. It seems that this matter really provoked the emperor.

After being the chief minister of the cabinet for so long, Shen Shixing knew very well about his own emperor.

Shen Shixing didn't believe that the emperor didn't know what Hai Rui meant, nor did he believe that the emperor didn't know what the result would be to put Hai Rui in this position, but he did it anyway.

That means the emperor has made great decisions. It is not Hai Rui’s problem now, but what should he do.

There are only two ways to do this. Needless to say, the benefits of agreeing or disagreeing. The emperor must be very happy and his position as chief minister in the cabinet is also stable.

What is the disadvantage? Being blamed? But this is the emperor's idea. In addition, there is also the Ministry of Personnel, so I can't blame myself for coming here. It has not been a day since I was scolded for the clay cabinet master in the past few years, and these things have long been immune.

What about disagreeing?’

To anger Your Majesty, judging from the severity of this matter, this is definitely not anger. What are the benefits? It seems that there is no benefit. Will those people think of their own good because of this?

In the midst of lightning, Shen Shixing had already weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

"I think Lord Hai is a clean and honest person, has a good reputation, and is not upright. He is the best candidate for the Censor of the Five Cities." Shen Shixing pondered for a while before speaking.

Zhu Yijun glanced at Shen Shixing and nodded with a smile: "Okay, then do that!"

After years of getting along, Zhu Yijun felt that Shen Shixing was more and more interesting. No wonder Shen Shixing has always stood firm in the officialdom in history and was valued when Zhang Juzheng's new policy was used.

Zhang Juzheng returned to his hometown to bury his father. Shen Shixing was able to enter the cabinet. After Zhang Juzheng died, he was not implicated. After Zhang Siwei returned to his hometown, he took over as the chief minister of the cabinet, and was not disliked by Emperor Wanli.

If Shen Shixing had not resigned himself in the end, he would have been able to stay in the position of chief minister for many years.

The incident happened when Emperor Wanli fought for the throne. Zhang Youde, the head of the Ministry of Works, submitted a memorial to ask for the enthronement ceremony. Emperor Wanli was furious and ordered the enthronement to be postponed for one year.

There were also memorials in the cabinet, asking to prepare for enactment. At that time, Shen Shixing was on vacation, and Xu Guo, who was in charge of cabinet affairs, submitted a memorial to Shen Shixing, signed him first because of his respect for Shen Shixing.

When Shen Shixing heard this, he secretly said: "I am on vacation, and that memorial has nothing to do with me. If you have a matter of enthronement, the holy will be determined. Zhang Youde is stupid and ignorant. The emperor can decide on the matter of enthronement. Don't affect the ceremony because of some villains."

This secret passage was soon spread, and the ministers were very angry when they saw Shen Shixing's head and rat.

He submitted a memorial to the minister Huang Daxiao, impeaching Shen Shixing on the surface agreed to the ministers' suggestion to make Zhu Changluo the crown prince, but secretly catered to the emperor's wishes and delayed the enactment of the matter to invite the emperor's kindness.

The cabinet secretary Huang Zhengbin submitted a memorial to impeach Shen Shixing and exclude his colleagues. As a result, Huang Dacheng and Huang Zhengbin were dismissed from office.

However, the high-pressure policy failed to make the ministers retreat. The censor Zou Deyong submitted a memorial again, accusing Shen Shixing of both the heads and the rats. Seeing that the ministers were angry and worried that the disaster would come, Shen Shixing submitted a memorial to resign.

Zhu Yijun has a memory of this incident. Zhu Yijun also studied Shen Shixing and Zhang Siwei in his previous life.

Zhu Yijun found that these two people were quite similar, saying that they were good at understanding current affairs or saying that they were real "officials", but the two people's ways of dealing with the world were similar.

Now it seems that Shen Shixing really has this meaning.

Since taking power, I have never thought of replacing Shen Shixing, the chief minister of the cabinet. Now it is really rare to think about it. From the bottom of my heart, Zhu Yijun felt that he should give Shen Shixing a thumbs up.

Beautiful job!

In business, he was able to regulate yin and yang, handle all major and small matters well, never let himself worry, and his performance was perfect. Shen Shixing has always been able to provide enough support for what he wanted to do.

Reconcile all ministers so that their policies can be implemented.

In terms of personal character, he does not embezzle or take power, he is not like Yan Song, nor does he have a son like Yan Shifan. Shen Shixing is really an example. Zhu Yijun thinks that if Shen Shixing is so capable, it would be better to let him continue to do it.

At least he cannot let him go before completing the reform himself. Who knows what kind of virtue is the next Chief Secretary?

Emperor Chongzhen has changed so many cabinet ministers but has not found a one to be a co-produced person. It is not easy to find such a person himself! Besides, Shen Shixing is still young now, so it is no problem to work for a few more years.

Seeing Zhu Yijun staring at him, Shen Shixing didn't show any signs, but his heart was irritated. Did he flatter the horse's legs?

"Okay, I have nothing to do, let's go and arrange it!" After Zhu Yijun came to his senses, he waved his hand to Shen Shixing.

"Then I will leave!" Shen Shi bowed and retreated.

With the allocation and arrangement of the cabinet, the progress of things naturally became very fast. The establishment of the Censorate of the Five City Capital has become an irreversible thing. However, the candidates for Censor of the Five City Capital were not announced.

This has caused many people to jump up and down again. This position is very powerful, and the key is that it has a high status.

He was given the title of deputy chief envoy of the Censorate. He took the lead and was one of the nine ministers of the Censorate. He could still enter the cabinet, but no one wanted to do it. For the chief envoys of the Censorate, this was a good opportunity!

The imperial court is so big and there are only so many official positions. Which position is not for one, let alone a position like the censor of the Five Cities. Those who feel qualified and have a way to start running immediately.

In Daxing County, two old guys who knew who the Censor of the Five Cities belonged to were sitting in Diaoyutai.

At this time, Hai Rui saw Sun Chengzong in the back hall, sitting on a chair drinking tea. Hai Rui looked at Sun Chengzong standing in front of him and felt very satisfied. Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Hai Rui said, "Your Majesty summoned me two days ago, do you know?"

"Sir, I know." Sun Chengzong hurriedly bowed.

Hai Rui nodded, and then said, "Your Majesty told me something. The county magistrate of Daxing County is about to step down. I recommend you to Your Majesty."

After hearing Hai Rui's words, Sun Chengzong was slightly stunned. It was really that the news came too suddenly.

"Sir, this!" Sun Chengzong was about to say something, but was interrupted by Hai Rui's wave of his hand.

"I am not dismissed from office, but His Majesty has other appointments to me." Hai Rui said with a smile: "Although I have not been here in Daxing County for a long time, I am the most comfortable place I have been an official for so many years."

"I will hand over this place to you, don't let me down."
