Xu Jie said with a cold face: "Sir Gao, let's go back first. After the cabinet discusses, he will report it to the prince and His Majesty."
Gao Gong stood still, without any intention of leaving. He looked at Xu Jie with a provocative look, "What are you saying? Didn't I say clearly enough just now? The prince ordered me to discuss with the cabinet. Does the cabinet think that as the head of the six ministries, the Ministry of Rites, which is in charge of the world's etiquette and rules and national sacrifices, isn't it worthy of participating in this matter?"
Li Chunfang and Yan Ne on the side looked at Xu Jie and Gao Gong again.
If the two of them could express their shock in their hearts at this moment, they would definitely be stunned and their eyes would fall out!
Although Li Chunfang also thought of confronting Xu Jie like this to strengthen his weight in the cabinet.
However, Li Chunfang's temperament and courage are not as popular as Gao Gong, and he knows that his position in Zhu Zai Di's mind is not enough to make him so unscrupulous.
Therefore, many times, Li Chunfang wanted to do something in the cabinet that he wanted to overcome Xu Jie, and he could only rely on other cabinet members and political allies in the six ministries to make efforts together, so that he had the opportunity to do so.
Otherwise, if Li Chunfang really wants to make him as unpretentious as Gao Gong, he will be able to do it directly and force him directly.
Xu Jie's face turned pale. He didn't expect Gao Gong to be so arrogant. He still didn't enter the cabinet. It's already like this. If you really want him to enter the cabinet, don't let the sky turn?
"Since that's the case, I also want to hear what the noble opinions of Gao Shangshu have?"
Xu Jie was angry in anger. Although he wanted to bombard such an arrogant Gao Gong out of the cabinet lobby, Gao Gong was so reasonable and well-founded that he could not do anything else except hating him.
So at this time, Xu Jie felt a deep feeling of envy in his heart. Why can't he be as simple as Yan Song in the imperial heart for more than ten years, and he was alone in the cabinet, but no one dared to refute it?
Maybe this is fate.
Li Chunfang, who was expecting Xu Jie to fight Gao Gong, was already expecting Xu Jie to admit defeat, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Could it be that Xu Jie has been the secondary assistant for more than ten years and has really made himself a young wife?
Gao Gong's voice was a little louder, so he didn't dare to support the majesty of the head assistant?
What else can he do with such a prime minister?
Li Chunfang glanced at Xu Jie with a slight look, and at the same time he also glanced at Gao Gong.
Li Chunfang was even more determined to bring Gao Gong to Nanjing for such performance and attitude.
Otherwise, when Xu Jie really leaves office, wouldn’t he have to fight Gao Gong directly and start a war?
What if Prince Yu is stubborn at that time, then his situation is even worse than Xu Jie now?
Therefore, I saw Gao Gong's domineeringness and Xu Jie's frustration with my own eyes.
Li Chunfang let this fate be repeated on himself again?
Xu Jie felt the look that Li Chunfang glanced at him. Although this glance was very light, as a veteran who had been up and down in the cabinet for more than ten years, as a "little wife" who had been cautious in front of Yan Song for more than ten years, and as an old man who had been silently praising the emperor of Jiajing for 100 or 20 years.
Xu Jie could naturally detect the changes in Li Chunfang's eyes and mentality.
At this time, Xu Jie couldn't help but think of the scene in his heart when Li Chunfang recommended Gao Gong to Nanjing after him.
Xu Jie sighed silently in his heart. In fact, it is better to get Gao Gong away first. When there is a suitable opportunity in the future, he will recommend Zhang Juzheng to the cabinet.
Otherwise, if Gao Gong is left in the capital, he will really let him enter the cabinet, relying on his contributions over the years and his weight on King Yu, he will compete with himself every day in the cabinet. Who is the eldest and younger king? Isn't that going to live?
Therefore, Xu Jie also silently gave Li Chunfang a look, as if after a collision of eyes, Xu Jie and Li Chunfang reached a temporary political alliance in this speechless manner. Their goal was to send Gao Gong away from Beijing!
Gao Gong sat on his own on a chair in the cabinet lobby. At this moment, he had already entered the state early and began his work experience in the cabinet.
Seeing this, Yan Ne turned around and looked at the Zhongshu Sheren who was hiding behind and acting as a melon-eating crowd, responsible for the written records and sorting of the cabinet, and said, "Go and prepare tea for Gaobutang!"
Gao Gong couldn't help but look up when he heard Yan Ne's voice. Although he didn't look down on Yan Ne, a great scholar who relied on writing flattering poems to Emperor Jiajing, since they gave him face, even if Gao Gong was arrogant and overly high, he had to give people a smile. Otherwise, if he really entered the cabinet in the future, without anyone helping him, how could he fight for the initiative in the cabinet?
Gao Gong thanked Yan Ne, "Thank you, Master Yan."
Yan Ne smiled happily, "Everyone is for Mr. Yuan. Mr. Yuan has worked hard for the court for so many years and died on his way back home. Whether we are former colleagues of Mr. Yuan or under the order of the king, we must give Mr. Yuan a decent afterlife, both in terms of emotion and reason."
Li Chunfang also took the opportunity to support him and said, "Yes, yes, it's all for the funeral of Master Yuan. Whether it's our cabinet or the Ministry of Rites, there is the right to suggest. Since the prince asked Brother Suqing to come to the cabinet to discuss with us, he must have considered the identity of Brother Suqing as Minister of Rites."
Xu Jie and Gao Gong listened to Yan Ne and Li Chunfang's smooth words, and they did put a lot of sharpness between them.
Gao Gong also turned around and raised his hand slightly to Xu Jie, "Forgive me, Master, I am impatient, sometimes I am anxious when I speak. I hope Master, don't take it to my heart."
After Xu Jie saw the steps given by Gao Gong, a gentle smile appeared on his face, "What is Su Qing talking about? You have also followed the prince's will. I didn't ask clearly in advance. Now that we have already said it, let's start doing things."
Xu Jie turned passive to active, and once again took the initiative in the cabinet's discussion.
For such subtle changes, whether it was Li Chunfang or Gao Gong who had just left in a high profile, they did not prick them anymore. After all, the cabinet also needs harmony and face.
Moreover, discussing a posthumous title for Yuan Wei’s fate is not an important matter of interest, and it can even be said that this is a matter of going through the process. It is really not necessary to be tense about this matter and refuse to give in to each other.
After all, I am not going to give Yuan Wei a top posthumous posthumous title like "Wen Zheng".
Li Chunfang and Yan Ne finally became normal as the atmosphere in the cabinet became normal.
Li Chunfang took the initiative to ask Gao Gong: "Brother Suqing, come from the prince. Do the prince have clear requirements for the funeral after Ge Lao Yuan?"
At this moment, the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat who went to serve tea for Gao Gong also brought the tea to Gao Gong. Gao Gong only took a look instinctively and did not pick up the teacup to drink water. He took his eyes back and looked at Li Chunfang who was asking questions and said, "The prince did not have a clear request. The decree of His Majesty who came to the prince was to convey his majesty's will to posthumous honor to Mr. Yuan and then give his son a scattered official to show his favor."
When Li Chunfang heard this, she suddenly said.
Xu Jie and Yan Ne also looked at each other, and these requests did not go beyond the scope they had just discussed.
Li Chunfang said to Gao Gong again: "In the opinion of Brother Suqing, what kind of posthumous title should I give Master Yuan Ge?" Li Chunfang's words were not to dig a hole for Gao Gong or to build a ladder for Gao Gong, but because the three people in their cabinet had almost discussed it, so there was no need to repeat the discussion, so I asked Gao Gong's opinion first.
Gao Gong thought about it and replied, "I have never thought about this matter carefully. Moreover, I have had a few interactions with Mr. Yuan, and I have superficial understanding of his behavior. Brother Zishi and Brother Minqing have been with Mr. Yuan for a long time. I wonder what you think of Mr. Yuan?"
Li Chunfang and Yan Ne looked at each other again, and they looked at Xu Jie and Gao Gong again.
Yan Ne said, "The posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous post
Listening to Yan Ne's words, Gao Gong looked at Xu Jie and Li Chunfang again, and the three of them nodded slightly, thinking that the posthumous title of the word "Rong" seemed quite appropriate to Yuan Wei.
Moreover, this word is not ostentatious and inconspicuous. It cannot be said to be a top-notch posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthu It is very suitable for ordinary ministers like Yuan Wei who have not achieved much but have not had many evil deeds.
Xu Jie said, "Since you have no objection, then we will first formulate this posthumous posthumous posthumous title. Let's continue to discuss it. What kind of honor should I posthumously award Mr. Yuan?"
Li Chunfang said at this time: "For the former, Your Majesty has added Yuan Ge Lao as the Young Master, and the Young Master and the Young Guard are both known as the three orphans. However, the order is in order, and the Young Master should be the leader of the three orphans. Therefore, I suggest that the Young Master should be given honor to the Young Master and be given to Yuan Ge Lao to demonstrate Your Majesty's benevolence and compassionate heart."
Li Chunfang's words are also very accurate. Although there are three men above the three orphans, he will definitely not be able to reach Yuan Wei's achievements.
Moreover, according to the previous rule of the court's procuratorial gifts to the Three Dukes, almost all of whom were important officials who made contributions to the country. Sometimes, even if a Grand Secretary who had served as the chief minister of the cabinet was resigned and died, they might not be able to receive the title of the Three Dukes.
Besides, Yuan Wei didn't even have a secondary assistant, so it was already the limit to be able to postpone a young master. Moreover, this was already a very respectful honor, and it was enough for their family to set up several archways in their hometown to show off.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Therefore, Li Chunfang's proposal was naturally unanimously agreed by everyone.
Next is to replenish the official for Yuan Wei’s son Yin.
This Yinbu Sanguan is actually a technical job, and it is not something you can do with just a word.
You should know that some official positions in the Ming Dynasty may be hereditary even if they are not as simple as the official positions.
Any casual official position that can be hereditary is extremely valuable and not something that any minister can get.
Therefore, when discussing this Yinbusan official, we must actually consider whether Yuan Wei’s contribution to the court over the years is enough to change to a hereditary Yinbusan official.
Obviously, in the eyes of Xu Jie, Li Chunfang, Yan Ne, and Gao Gong, Yuan Wei’s contributions were obviously not qualified to replace a hereditary Yinbu San official for his descendants.
Therefore, at this time, Xu Jie and the others had to consider those Yin Busan officials who could not be hereditary, and which ones were suitable for Yuan Wei's sons to show off.
Finally, after some discussion and comparison, Xu Jie and others believed that the seventh-rank Zhongshu Sheren was more suitable to be a Yinbu Sanguan official for Yuan Wei's son.
Of course, don’t think that the official position of Zhongshu Sheren who can be given out like this will seem very despicable.
In fact, the official position of the Central Secretariat Sheren was still very well-known when he was in the Ming Dynasty.
Although the ordinary Zhongshu Shepherd, the rich children can do nothing, can donate money to a Zhongshu Shepherd as a scattered official and become a prominent figure in the village.
But this is just an ordinary Zhongshu Shepherd who doesn't have any other high-profile positions. If you want to serve as Zhongshu Shepherd in a place like the cabinet, you will be almost a rare position that is not a Jinshi.
Therefore, even ordinary Zhongshu Sheshou is divided into high and low.
The Secretariat who could give Yuan Wei's son a favor at this time was obviously the lowest-level one, which was only enough for his son to show off in the village. As for other rights, it was just not to think about it.
After discussing these posthumous honors, posthumous titles, and official positions to Yuan Wei.
Xu Jie also asked the Secretariat in the cabinet to write the results they have discussed now into a reply form, and then sent them to Wenhua Palace.
Zhu Zai-dian, who was still handling court documents in Wenhua Hall, looked at the memorial sent by the Secretariat of the Cabinet, and only nodded softly and did not give a direct reply.
After all, the final decision of this matter is still to be done by Emperor Jiajing.
The delivery to Zhu Zai Di is nothing more than asking Zhu Zai Di to take a look at the tricks inside and understand the little thoughts of the cabinet ministers.
After Zhu Zai-die sent away the Secretariat of the Cabinet, he also picked up the honor and posthumous title that the Cabinet had designed for Yuan Wei, and took a look at the memorial of the son and nephew.
Seeing that the contents were all in a normal and stingy way, Zhu Zai-die couldn't help but shake her head and smile.
Sure enough, this is the essence of a literati.
Zhu Zaiyu closed the memorial and reached out to the little eunuch waiting beside him, "Send it to the West Garden and present it to Your Majesty to the Emperor to read the Holy Tribunal."
The little eunuch immediately respectfully received the memorial handed over by Zhu Zaiji, and then lowered his head and replied, "I obey the order."
Then the little eunuch hurriedly and held the memorial at his fastest speed and headed towards the West Garden.
