Of course, it is not easy to increase the power of Liu Shoufu's political opponents. For any key position, Liu Shoufu will compete with his political opponents and place people. After all, Liu Shoufu is not stupid. Liu Shoufu can place people wherever you want.<

/p>

Generally speaking, for key positions, such as the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Liu Shoufu must fight for it to the end and place his own people, and he will do whatever he can to do this, including slandering his opponents and even physically destroying them.
p>

As for the inconsequential positions such as the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites, Liu Shoufu can fight for them, but if he really can't fight for them, forget it. After all, he always physically destroys his opponents and is easily discovered.

And once discovered, no matter how powerful Liu Shoufu is, he will not survive. After all, he can continue to be the first assistant after killing people. How is it possible? He cannot bear the public opinion. After all, he has not yet reached the point where he can cover the sky with one hand.

, or in other words, he has no soldiers or military power, so he cannot kill people without being punished.

The military power of this dynasty is currently jointly controlled by the cabinet and the emperor. No one party can mobilize military power. Otherwise, the military power must be in the hands of the emperor. The emperor can do whatever he wants, and Liu Shoufu can also do it.

You can do whatever you want, and there is no need to make calculations with others.

Although Liu Shoufu will fight hard for some key positions, ordinary people cannot get them.

However, even if you strive for it, people are different.

For example, if some people are very good, Liu Shoufu puts that person in a key position and it is very useful. But some people are not very good and may even be a hindrance. If Liu Shoufu puts that person in a key position, it will not only be useless, but may even be counterproductive.<

/p>

Therefore, An Ran's idea is not to compete with Liu Shoufang for key positions, but she will find a way to replace the people assigned by Liu Shoufang in key positions with pig teammates to hinder Liu Shoufang and weaken Liu Shoufang's strength.

OK.

This is not a difficult task. After all, even if Liu Shoufu wants to arrange his people in key positions, his people will still compete with each other. It is impossible for a good position to have no one competing.

In a competitive situation, Enron can help the pig teammates use their strength to let the opponent take the upper hand.

Now, the Minister of Civil Affairs is getting old and is about to replace someone. Liu Shoufu is going to use his few capable people to see who can be hired.

As for An Ran, she plans to put a person who, according to her investigation, is quite serious in corruption to the position. When this person takes the position, after a period of time, the corruption of this person will be exposed, and this person is highly recommended by Liu Shoufu.

Those who go up, if such a big thing happens, will definitely become a handle for the emperor and his political opponents, and they will attack him severely. Maybe then, Liu Shoufu, who can be forced to give way, will release some positions to the emperor or his political opponents.

The people arranged for people to go up.

If this situation continues, one day Liu Shoufu's power will gradually weaken.

So soon, a conversation took place in the Queen's Palace.

Her number one loser, Concubine Ding, said to Empress Liu: "Your Majesty, the candidate for Minister of Staff...Has Liu Shoufu decided who it is?"

Queen Liu heard her ask this and glanced at her. She was obviously wondering why she asked this. Did her father want to be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel? But she had not heard from her father that Lord Ding was preparing to compete for the position of the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. After all,

Mr. Ding is now the Minister of the Ministry of Finance and is in charge of the money bag of the imperial court. This position is also very good. If he does not become the Minister of the Ministry of Hubu and becomes the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, then her father will also go to recruit the Minister of the Ministry of Finance.

Choosing the right person will also be a headache.

Empress Liu, who didn't know the reason, said: "No, why do you ask about this?"

Concubine Ding said with a smile: "As expected, it's no wonder that Mrs. Gao was anxious - she found my mother and asked me to help express my love in front of her. I couldn't shirk it, so I had to tell my mother that I would talk to her.

The empress has just mentioned it, but I don’t know whether it will work or not.”

But Concubine Ding knew that since she mentioned it, Empress Liu would definitely sell her face. After all, Empress Liu has lost her right-hand man Cao Concubine, and Concubine Yu is in the spotlight again. If she doesn't win over her, she will be weak in the palace.

of.

Sure enough, just as Concubine Ding thought, Empress Liu listened to her words and said with a smile: "I will mention it to my father. It shouldn't be a big problem. After all, my father has said before that he prefers to let Mr. Gao take over."

Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials."

In fact, her father never said that at all. He only said that there were several candidates, and Mr. Gao was one of them.

When Concubine Ding heard what Empress Liu said, she knew that the thing would probably succeed in nine out of ten cases. She couldn't help but be happy. After all, it meant that she was doing well in the palace and could accomplish such things. In this way, her mother's family would be happy with her.

She pays more attention to it.

The more attention her mother's family pays to her, the more money they will provide her to spend in the palace, and the better her life in the palace will be.

Concubine Ding was able to speak for Master Gao. Naturally, An Ran sent someone to instigate her in front of Madam Gao, saying that Queen Liu valued Concubine Ding and asked Madam Gao to find Madam Ding and ask Concubine Ding for help, which might succeed.

The reason why An Ran encouraged Madam Gao to ask Concubine Ding for help was, firstly, because Concubine Ding had an unusual relationship with Empress Liu, and as long as she was willing to intercede, it would definitely be useful; secondly, because Concubine Ding's mother was from the same hometown as Madam Gao——

My hometown is in the same place - there is no use asking Mrs. Gao to find anyone else. Looking for Mrs. Ding, with the friendship of fellow villagers, there is still hope to persuade Mrs. Ding. After all, with this relationship, Mr. Gao will become the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs in the future.

It’s also a good thing for the Ding family.

An Ran's guess was correct. Master Ding really agreed to help Master Gao, so he asked Mrs. Ding to enter the palace and told her daughter about it. Then what happened was that Concubine Ding went to talk to Queen Liu about something.

And Empress Liu did give Concubine Ding this face as An Ran expected, especially after the death of her other powerful assistant Cao Bin, she naturally relied more on Concubine Ding, so it was natural for her to intercede.

It means that she knows and will tell Liu Shoufu.

In order to win over Concubine Ding and Lord Ding, Empress Liu talked to Liu Shoufu, who hesitated for a moment, but then agreed, and Lord Gao took over as Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Anyway, Mr. Gao is also one of the candidates he is considering, so he can take over.

An Ran saw that Mr. Gao had succeeded in taking over the position of Minister of Civil Affairs. He couldn't help but smile and secretly said to Liu Shoufu, just wait for Mr. Gao to trick you.

And An Ran's doing this also has the effect of killing two birds with one stone - afterwards, when Empress Liu heard that her father was unlucky because of Master Gao, she was afraid that she would be angry with Concubine Ding, blaming her for being bad, saying favors, using the back door, and letting her father do it.

If such an inappropriate person goes up, something will happen.
