The letter written by Chen Yichen was sent to Gao Gu, the last-ranked cabinet minister, and then submitted it to the emperor after he voted it, and then continued to be approved with a red pen.

The so-called "publication" is simple and rough to understand, and can also be considered as posting a small note on the memorial.

However, this note is completely different from the note written by Chen Yichen. The note only condenses and streamlinesses the memorial description, and cannot make any subjective judgments and comments on the original content of the memorial.

In a sense, the bill is to substitute the emperor as the emperor for comments, and then hand it over to the emperor for a while to read it. Finally, I changed into a red pen, copied the contents of the bill and sent it back to the ministers who submitted it.

Therefore, the majority of the emperor's reply seen by civil and military officials were actually written by cabinet ministers, and their will and ideas were integrated with imperial power.

This is why the cabinet was able to replace the position of prime minister and infringe upon the power of the six ministries, becoming the center of power of the Ming Dynasty.

When it comes to the right to "publicate votes", we have to mention the right to "publicize the dividend".

The last step of the billing procedure is copied by the emperor's pen, which is called "Criticism Red", or "Criticism Red".

Why can the eunuch in charge of the seal of the Sili Supervisor infringe upon the power of the court and the country? He is called "internal minister"?

The reason is that this last step should have been personally approved by the emperor, and he delegated this right to the Silijian.

Think about the implementation and issuance of the Ming Dynasty's policies, and they are all controlled by the eunuchs in charge of the seals of the Sili Supervisor. Can they not be in a high position and have a high position?

Although in the law, it is stipulated that eunuchs must follow the content of the cabinet bill to approve the content, at most, change the typos. But the problem is that when the power is truly at the level of power, who will still abide by the provisions of the law, and what if it is changed?

Wang Zhen’s ability to interfere in politics was to deceive his superiors and conceal his subordinates, falsely spread or distort or tamper with the edict!

The "vote-to-approval" system is equivalent to the cabinet and eunuchs, and divides the power to formulate and implement national policies.

If the emperor works hard to govern, be talented and stubborn, he can still control the basic direction of politics and not be fooled by the people below.

If this emperor is incompetent and ignores the government, he will really become a human rubber seal. He will not know what the imperial policies are and how they will be implemented.

In addition, the cabinet also has a very awesome skill, that is, if the emperor does not issue an order according to the contents of the vote, or bypasses the cabinet and directly issues an imperial edict.

This kind of imperial edict is called "the central edict", and they have the right to seal it and not implement it!

Later generations have understood that power is the bottom of the bottom. Once no one listens to or does anything, even if he is a high emperor, he will be just a lonely person.

At the same time, this situation also explains why the Ming Dynasty civil servant group fought with the emperor very happily. The essence is to compete for control of the country, and no one wants to share this supreme power.

The cabinet minister Gao Gu nodded with satisfaction at the announcement submitted by Chen Yichen.

Because Chen Yichen's writings are excellent in writing, the content is concise, the text is clear and square, and the paper is clean and tidy.

It can be said that this is the standard template for Dongge to unveil the post. If you don’t look at the name of the writer, you would never have expected it to be the "intern".

Sure enough, the talent of Sanyuan is different from ordinary people. This son has extremely high talent!

But as he looked, Gao Gu's face changed.

Chen Yichen's obituary statement from Yunnan Prefecture was mixed with his personal thoughts, and the post stated that there will be major changes in the Western border, and we must be prepared for a comeback of the Luchuan regime in advance.

Yue Quan is a taboo for officials. What does this guy regard himself as? Is it Zhongyun, Youchunfang, or the Grand Secretary of the Dongge?

Such a military and national event is also a match made by Chen Yichen?

Gao Gu is an honest official, upright person, and fair person. On the surface, he looks perfect.

But his entire career can only be described in four words - lack of frankness.

If you don’t do things, you won’t do things wrong.

The cabinet has been in power for more than ten years and has served as the chief minister for more than a month. It has neither introduced policy reform and revitalization in the face of people's livelihood nor turned the tide in the face of national crisis.

Anyway, he has been in the officialdom for more than 40 years, but he has no impression of how much he has done for the country and the people. In the end, after experiencing the change of Tumu Fort and the change of the gate, he was able to protect himself and retire bravely, and pass the knowledge of being an official.

Officials like Gao Gu are the most intolerant. Chen Yichen just needs to do his own things according to the rules. He is not the turn of his extra work, and he doesn't have to worry about the extra work, and there is no need to be a civil servant in charge of military affairs!

That day, when the government was in charge of the government, he would make a big fuss about the affairs of the Northwest Tartars. Now, even the barbarians in the southwest have been pointed out?

The more Gao Gu thought about it, the more angry he became, and he tore off Chen Yichen's post, kneaded it into a ball and threw it out the door.

It happened that Ma Yu walked in at this time and was about to discuss with Gao Gu if he had something to do, so the ball of paper hit him.

Ma Yu picked up the paper ball on the ground and smiled and said, "I wonder why Shiyong (the word Gaogu) is so angry. Are the new officials who entered Dong Pavilion and went to school stupid in government affairs?"

Seeing that it was Ma Yu coming, Gao Gu immediately stood up and bowed, "It turns out that it was the arrival of Seven He (Ma Yu) and it is a rude act. Please forgive me."

"It's okay, but I'm curious, who can make the world lose its composure."

After Ma Yu said that, he spread out the paper ball and started to read it.

The previous content is ordinary, and it is a brief revelation of obituary. However, when Ma Yu saw the explanation of the latter, he instantly understood the reason why Gao Gu was angry. When he saw the final signature, he became a little uneasy again.

This post was actually written by Chen Yichen!

"No wonder Shiyong is angry. Chen Yichen is not sure about his position."

Ma Yu said lightly, he understood Gao Gu's character, and Chen Yichen's actions were simply asking for trouble.

"It's indeed a bit beyond the rules, but this child's experience is still inexplicable, and he can understand something wrong, which is not harmful."

Gao Gu's attitude changed immediately, and even helped Chen Yichen ease up.

The reason is that Ma Yu is Chen Yichen’s nominal teacher. It is not good for you to blame the students in front of other teachers.

Ma Yu also knew the reason why Gao Gu softened his attitude. However, there were many things behind him that could not be told to outsiders. Chen Yichen, the so-called disciple, may not be the same as him.

"Shiyong, what if this memorial is handed over to me?"

Hearing this, Gao Gu thought Ma Yu wanted to teach Chen Yichen as a teacher, but he agreed without thinking too much.

But what he didn't know was that Ma Yu planned to do nothing and submit the memorial and the unveiled post.

Because of the day when the emperor was observing politics, Chen Yichen's views on the Northwest War expressed, Ma Yu keenly noticed Zhu Qizhen's emotional fluctuations. If these remarks were read by the emperor again, they would inevitably affect Chen Yichen's impression in his heart.

The thousand-mile dike was destroyed by an ant hole, and the most ruthless one was the imperial family.

Once the emperor's kindness is gone, Chen Yichen will fall miserably in the future.

Thinking of this, Ma Yu actually looked a little lonely.

If it is not different from Chen Yichen's position and camp, Ma Yu really appreciates this junior and is willing to stage a story of teachers and students in the officialdom.

I can only say that many things are destined before the test, and the difference in the way is not to work together!

On the other hand, Chen Yichen returned to the Duke's Mansion and went directly to Duke Cheng, wanting to seek help for Xu Fengyuan's job.

After all, Chen Yichen's time to enter the officialdom was short, and there were not many people in the officialdom. Moreover, the connections in the past were accumulated from the imperial examination route, and the Ministry of Rites and Hanlin Academy were mainly officials, so they could not get along with the Ministry of Personnel.

If you want to play the role of an official airborne job, you must get a high position and a high authority to do so. Among the people Chen Yichen currently knows, there are only two people who meet this standard.

They were the eunuch Wang Zhen, the chief eunuch of the Sili Supervisor, and Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo.

Although Shen Yichen can no longer take off the hat of the eunuch party, he is still unwilling to have too much interest entanglement with Wang Zhen.

After all, being forced to "join" the eunuch party is one thing, and taking the initiative to join is another thing. The civil servant group is not something, nor does it mean that the eunuch group is all good things.

So there was no choice but to turn to Duke Cheng Guo Zhu Yong.

Seeing Chen Yichen coming, Zhu Yong didn't even wait for him to say politely, and asked directly: "Tell me, what's the matter."

Go straight to the topic, very good...

To be honest, if we put aside the father-son relationship, Zhu Yong's habitual style of many military generals has a more appetite for Chen Yichen than civil servants.

But then again, if there was no father-son relationship, Zhu Yong would not have this attitude.

"Master."

Chen Yichen still bowed to Zhu Yong, and then said, "I have a friend who is listening to the election at the Ministry of Personnel. He hopes to take office as the magistrate of Changle, Fuzhou Prefecture, Fujian Provincial Governor. I hope the grandfather will help."

"Friends expect? I'm afraid you're expecting."

Zhu Yong replied indifferently, Chen Yichen asked himself to help once last time, and transferred Li Da and others from the Beijing Guard Command and Commander Office to the Three Major Camps through the Five Army Governor's Office.

Just as the cabinet and the six ministries had a dispute over the cabinet in the early Ming Dynasty, there was actually a dispute over the government in the early Ming Dynasty. That is, there was an overlapping competition in the power between the Governor's Office and the Ministry of War.

The Governor's Office of the Five Army was higher than the Ministry of War in the early Ming Dynasty, and had the authority to manage military households in various places, training of garrisons in various provinces, promotion and transfer of generals in various places, etc. At first, the Ministry of War only had the authority to mobilize garrisons in various places.

To put it simply, the Governor's Office of the Five Army has the power to command the military, while the Ministry of War has the power to transfer military troops.

The two sides have been in a struggle openly and secretly. On the surface, it is a struggle between the two institutions, but in fact it is a game between the military general Xunqi Group and the civil servant group.

However, in the early and mid-Ming Dynasty, the Xunqi Group was in a difficult situation, and the civil servant group was at a disadvantage. After the Tumu Fort Incident, the Xunqi Group collapsed instantly, and the Ministry of War completely undermined the authority of the Governor's Office of the Five Army.

Even in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the status of military generals was reduced to being inferior to dogs in front of civil officials.

The transfer of Li Da and others to positions is a slaughter for Duke Cheng Guo. Now that arranging people to be the magistrate of Changle County, Fuzhou Prefecture, has to be appointed as the magistrate through the Ministry of Personnel, which is relatively troublesome.

But what Zhu Yong cares about is not the trouble, but what Chen Yichen wants to do. His goal and official position are so clear that there is definitely some planning behind it.

"It was indeed arranged by the younger generation."

Chen Yichen did not hide it, or in other words, he could not explain it with a bad excuse in front of a high-ranking official at Duke Cheng.

"In addition, Li Da and others were transferred to command soldiers before, what exactly do you want to do?"

Zhu Yong, Duke Cheng, had a faint premonition. Chen Yichen had a great idea, and even felt that it would exceed his imagination.

"What I think of is nothing more than being able to help the world if you are rich, and being poor will be able to keep you alone."

"If you want to use your commander to help the world, you really plan to be a marquis three thousand miles away!"

Zhu Yong, Duke Cheng, was extremely shocked. He had probably guessed Chen Yichen's intention in his mind.
