Chapter 1294 The courage of the future chief assistant

Bi Ziyan is most aware of the current court situation. He is outside in the past few months, so he is as insightful as watching the fire.

Bi Ziyan walked slowly, listening to Li Youtang's words, and said, "I am still here now, can I suppress him and clean up the mess. In addition, I want to see what Sun Chuanting is going to do and where the future of the Ming Dynasty will go."

Li Youtang understood Bi Ziyan's thoughts, and followed silently for a while, saying, "My dear mind, I admire you."

Bi Ziyan sighed again and said, "You stare at the cabinet and parliament. I guess Sun Chuanting will have a lot of actions, and he will reveal some news."

"Sir, don't worry." Li Youtang said.

After Bi Ziyan said this, his mentality was extremely relaxed, his smile became a little looser, and he said, "Let's go eat mandarin fish, let's have a luxury today and have some good wine."

Seeing that Bi Ziyan was in a good mood, Li Youtang naturally accompanied him and smiled and said, "Okay, the official can finally get the old man to invite him."

Bi Ziyan smiled more and more happily, waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"

...

While Bi Ziyan was going to have a meal, Sun Chuanting and Fu Changzong were chatting with teacups.

Fu Changzong couldn't understand the old partner's mind now, and said casually, "There are more than 300 people in the parliament now. If multiple provinces are divided next year, according to the plan, North Korea, Ryukyu and Annan will be officially incorporated into our Ming Dynasty, which should be the same as our Ming Dynasty provinces. What do you think about the added members of the parliament in these places?"

Sun Chuanting naturally felt much more at ease with this future right-hand man, saying: "I plan to reform the parliament and divide it into two houses. Each has its own focus on power and duties. I am still considering the relative proportion of the number of people."

‘Sure enough, Sun Baigu had a plan in his mind.’

Fu Changzong thought to himself, for a moment, he said, "Zhao Han came to me yesterday and asked me about the cabinet's assessment of officials next year. There are several governors, including Xu Dahua, Zhang Wenda and others who are at the age line."

Sun Chuanting stretched out his arm and said, "He is throwing a stone to ask for directions... What do you think of the prime ministers?"

Fu Changzong felt aroused in his heart and said, "Do you want Zhao Han to replace Zhang Wenda?"

Zhang Wenda is now the prime minister of the six provinces of Shaanxi and Sichuan. If Zhao Han goes, it will be Gao Sheng, paving the way for the future entrance of the cabinet. At the same time, the position of Minister of Personnel is vacant.

Fu Changzong sighed in his heart that this master Sun Ge's methods became more and more sensible.

But, are you too impatient?

Sun Chuanting shook his head, turned to look at him, and said, "The Prime Minister was established in the past to control the local situation and not lose control. Now the situation has changed. I plan to abolish the Prime Minister and strengthen the power of the governors of various provinces in the next two or three years."

Fu Changzong thought that Sun Chuanting did this obviously in order to break the current deadlock in the "New Deal", but in this way, local governments must be given a considerable right and more say in the "New Deal".

Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the governor is absolutely loyal to the "New Policy", to the court, and to the emperor!

Can Sun Chuanting do this in such a chaotic court?

When Sun Chuanting saw Fu Changzong's face, he thought, and then said, "I plan to change the Governor's Office in various places into a military region, modify the military uniform, military system, and military positions, which are different from the war zone, belong to the Governor's Office, and have dual leadership with the cabinet..."

Fu Changzong brows moved and said with a little surprise: "You have a big change. Are you really not worried about the place being big and becoming a vassal state?"

The Ming Dynasty founded the country from Taizu, or in other words, the army was strictly checked and balanced by all dynasties to ensure that no accidents occurred.

The situation in the Ming Dynasty is now dark and unclear, and Sun Chengzong's general's mansion obviously also needs to take action. If Sun Chuanting's fierce "new policy" causes local turmoil, a big mess will occur in an instant.

A cold look appeared on Sun Chuanting's face and said, "I promise they don't have the courage!"

Fu Changzong's eyelids twitched, and he could hear the smell. What Sun Chuanting said was probably the tip of the iceberg, and what he wanted to do would be bolder and more than their expectations!

Fu Changzong suppressed his shock and said, "Did you tell the emperor?"

Sun Chuanting naturally knew that Fu Changzong's ideas were more inclined to Bi Ziyan, but for this person, Zhou Yingqiu, who was about to enter the cabinet, he had to rely on them, so he said: "I wrote a long letter to the emperor and explained some ideas. In addition, I don't plan to do it in one step. I have to do too many things, and I will do it step by step. After the emperor for so many years, I have not learned anything else, and patience is full of training."

Only then did Fu Changzong feel a little relieved. With Zhu Xu pressing him, Sun Chuanting would not be out of order, and even if he did, there would be no chaos.

The Ganqing Palace was the most dissatisfied with the court and wanted to change the most, but he was also the most concerned about the stability of the court and would not allow chaos in the world.

Fu Changzong was willing to find out more, but knew that Sun Chuanting would not reveal too much. After a while, he said, "The Ministry of Revenue should be no problem. The Ministry of Personnel, Zhao Han is the old man in the Qiandi Mansion. If you want to move, it is best to talk to him and let him tell the emperor that you must not make decisions without authorization."

The senior officials of the imperial court and the Ganqing Palace all had an account book, and there were plans for how to arrange it. If Sun Chuanting acted rashly, it would not only break the plan, but also cause unnecessary suspicion.

Sun Chuanting smiled and said, "I won't move Zhao Han for the time being. Xu Dahua from the Ministry of Works, Liao Changyong from the Ministry of Justice, and Chen Xun from the Ministry of Rites, I plan to give them new arrangements next year."

Three of the six divisions were moved at once, and Sun Chuanting was really a big deal!

This means that not only the cabinet will change, but the six ministries will also change!

Fu Changzong sighed in his heart that the court situation that had been stable for many years was finally about to be broken.

He didn't say much. Although these people were colleagues for many years, Sun Chuanting's open talk with him was mostly due to the qi of the Ganqing Palace and gaining a foundation.

"Governors of various provinces, do you have a candidate?" Fu Changzong picked up the teacup, spoke silently, and asked.

Next year, four governors will reach the age of the ranks and cannot enter the court, so they can only retire. The four governor positions will be vacant, plus North Korea, Annan, Ryukyu, and Mongolia. There will be many high-ranking officials vacant at once, and the court will inevitably be excited.

Sun Chuanting walked a long walk outside and took him in Liaodong for several months. Naturally, he was not doing nothing. He nodded and said, "I have a few candidates in my heart, but I still have to rely on you and Zhou Yingqiu. These people must be reliable."

This can also be considered a political transaction or an explicit rule.

Fu Changzong was not happy at all. He was not keen on recruiting gangs and promoting his disciples and former officials. Therefore, he did not comment and said intentionally or unintentionally: "What do you think on the Royal Court?"

The earliest group of students in the Royal Court has graduated for eight years, and many are qualified to hold higher positions. However, due to the prejudice of the officialdom and the court's concern that putting them into "official officials" too early will cause local struggles, under the guise of "tempering", they have been deliberately suppressing their promotion, and very few can emerge.

Now, whether it is necessary for the situation, the emperor's attitude, or the power cannot be suppressed, the court needs to make new changes.
