Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 128 Cabinet Upgrade
Since the establishment of Taizong's cabinet, there have been six cabinet ministers with the title of minister, and today, there are only three Yangs, which was when the cabinet's power was at its peak.

However, even Sanyang only added the title of six ministers, not the title of six ministers. After that, the power of the cabinet fell again, and the title of cabinet ministers became six ministers.

Just like Chen Xun and Gao Gu, they were added as the right servants of the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry respectively.

It should be said that to a certain extent, the addition of titles reflects the status of the cabinet in the court.

At the time of the Three Yangs, the status was comparable to or even surpassed the six Shangshu, so the title of Shangshu was added.

After the Three Yangs, the status of the cabinet ministers was similar to that of the foreign court ministers, so the title of ministers was added.

But this time it's different, Wang Zhi's Minister of the Ministry of Officials is actually taught!

Although the emperor said that he would not be allowed to manage politics in the Ministry of Officials for the time being, he did not promote a new Minister of the Ministry of Officials, nor did he change his title of Minister of the Ministry of Officials to a title.

Theoretically speaking, if the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, who holds the power of election, wins the power of the cabinet, his power can almost be compared to that of a prime minister!

Perhaps the news was too shocking, and it wasn't until Xiang Wenyao returned to the original place after thanking him that it was as if a floodgate had suddenly opened, and discussions began with a "buzz".

But don't forget, this is Chang Chao, which is different from ordinary Japan and North Korea.

As soon as the discussions started, several ceremony officials stepped forward to maintain order, and the leader of the ceremony officials even shouted sharply.

"quiet!"

The commotion was quickly stabilized, and then a minister came out and stood still in the hall.

This time it's not some unknown character, but one of the Seven Ministers, Zuodu Yushi Chen Yi.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor Taizu has long had a ban. Our court abolished the Zhongshu decree. The prime minister has power divided into six departments, and all official positions of prime ministers are banned. If Wang Zhi enters the Zhi cabinet as a minister of the official department, his power will be close to that of the prime minister. This move Violating the ancestral system of Emperor Taizu, I implore Your Majesty to think twice."

Followed closely by a group of Li Ke and Li Ke, they also stepped forward one after another and said.

"Your Majesty, what the Chief Constitutional Lord said is true. This move violates the ancestral system. Please think twice, Your Majesty."

Seeing the ministers bowing down one after another, Zhu Qiyu said with a wry smile on his face.

"It's just a discussion, why are you doing this?"

After thinking about it, Zhu Qiyu said again.

"It's really inappropriate for the minister of the Ministry of Officials to enter the cabinet directly. I wanted to share the pressure for the heavenly officials, but I forgot this. It's my fault. Please ask me."

Seeing that the emperor did not insist on his own opinion, the ministers quietly let go of their hearts and said one after another.

"Emperor Shengming."

However, Zhu Qiyu changed the subject and said again.

"Since this is the case, then we will change the title of Minister of the Ministry of Officials of the Heavenly Official to a virtual conferment, and still add the crown prince and Taibao, confer the title of Huagaidian University Bachelor, and enter Zhiwenyuan Pavilion."

This……

The minister below, you look at me, I look at you, a little at a loss.

The script is wrong.

Your Majesty, shouldn't you act as if nothing happened?
How could such a light and flirtatious sentence save a minister of the official department?

Immediately, a minister stood up and said.

"Your Majesty, the prince has been in office for four dynasties. He has devoted himself to the court. The chief government officials have done their duty and made no mistakes. The emperor dismissed the prince as a heavenly official without reason. Wouldn't it be chilling for the old minister?"

Zhu Qiyu glanced at the speaker.

Coincidentally, when he was looking through the history of the imperial censors who impeached Cao Jixiang yesterday, he also read some other people's resumes by the way.

Among them is this person, Wu Yong in the Military Division, who is a student of Wang Zhi.

With a warm smile on his face, Zhu Qiyu was not angry, he said.

"What kind of words are these? It was the ministers who said that the Minister of the Ministry of Officials also served as a cabinet minister, which was inconsistent with the ancestral system. That's why I removed one of the posts. Why did I dismiss him without reason?"

After all, Zhu Qiyu said again when he saw that the people below were still about to speak.

"Even if it is true as you said, I removed Wang Qing from the Ministry of Officials, and I was transferred to the cabinet for other purposes. Why did you come here?"

Wu Yong was so choked that he couldn't speak, he stood still, and someone followed him out of the shift.

After all, Wang Zhi has been in power for many years, even if he has never formed a party, there are many disciples and fellow villagers.

One Wu Yong was choked, and two or three came out, speaking one after another.

"Your Majesty, since Emperor Taizu abolished the Zhongshu and dismissed the prime minister, the Ministry of Officials has been the head of the six departments. The head of the Tianguan Zhongzai can be described as the ultimate minister. The prince has no fault, and it is inappropriate to dismiss the post of Tianguan without reason. Fu Wei, the emperor is concerned about it."

This sentence is not euphemistic, but it basically expresses the aspirations of the courtiers.

In today's imperial court, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is the head of all officials.

The emperor resigned from his post as a heavenly official, and in the eyes of the courtiers, it was relegation.

What's more, there is a bolder, direct way.

"Your Majesty, the cabinet was set up just for consultation. How can it be compared with the Six Departments? The emperor's move is a rise and fall, not a sage!"

Before Zhu Qiyu could speak, Jin Ying stood up and shouted sharply.

"presumptuous!"

The officials below also knelt down, and the courtier who spoke just now also fell to the ground, said.

"I made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Having said that, there was no sign of admitting mistakes on his face.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the courtiers kneeling down in the darkness, and felt very calm in his heart.

He has seen a lot of Wen Chen's routine of offending first, then pleading guilty and not admitting his mistakes in the past hundred years.

After thinking about it, Zhu Qiyu said.

"Although the cabinet was set up for consultation, after several dynasties of Emperor Taizong, Renzong, and Xuanzong, there were sages like Sanyang who stabilized the court situation and reconciled internal and external. It is not what you said, and it is not important!"

"Although there are ranks in the various ministries and temple supervisors of the imperial court, they all serve the imperial court. There is no distinction between high and low. You need to keep this in mind."

Well, although this is a scene, it is not easy to refute.

After all, Sanyang is indeed a cabinet minister. Although they have such great power because they hold a will to assist the government, it is reasonable to say that it is the cabinet's credit.

As for the various departments behind, they all work for the court and are also politically correct, refuting that it is easy to offend people.

So a group of ministers had to shout again.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Especially Chen Xun and Gao Gu, who were cabinet ministers, felt elated.

In the final analysis, the two of them belonged to the cabinet, and it made them uncomfortable to be so clearly said that the cabinet was not as good as the six departments.

The emperor's words were a formal affirmation to the cabinet, so he was naturally very happy.

But when they were happy, the two looked at each other, and they had a vague premonition that the emperor had already achieved this step, so maybe it wasn't just a word of approval, right?
Sure enough, the next moment, the emperor on the throne continued to speak, saying.

"The cabinet was set up by Emperor Taizong. It has been used in the court for four dynasties until now. It is really inappropriate to have no fixed system for so long."

"From now on, the cabinet will have six members. Anyone who enters the cabinet will be given the title of six ministers. The cabinet ministers will all be assistant ministers. The Huagaidian University scholar will be the head and assistant. The master draft will be drafted, and the group assistants will be customized."

"Chen Xun, the former Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs and Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, the University of Jinshendian of the Ministry of Jinhu, the University of Jinshendian of the Jinhu Department, Gao Gu, the former Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Bachelor of the Imperial Academy, and the University of Wuyingdian of the Ministry of Jin and Industry entered the Wenyuan Pavilion of Zhizhi."

"As for Wang Qing..."

Zhu Qiyu looked at the bewildered officials below, and said.

"Since the officials are determined not to agree, I will not force it. I will still order Wang Zhi to be Minister of the Ministry of Officials, in charge of the affairs of the Ministry, plus the title of Crown Prince and Taibao, and receive double salary."

"Retreat."
