Chapter 59: One Tiger Holding Two Sheep
Yuan Gan Yao is well-recognized as a good old man, and said enthusiastically: "We have received the appointment of Your Majesty, and the prime ministers agree to the invitation. From today on, Pei Xiang will be a colleague of our old men. This is the first time Pei Xiang is prime minister and has never been exposed to this list of things. I believe that even if I have great talents in Jingwei, I will be confused for a while and don't know where to start. I made an appointment with Li Xiang to invite Pei Tong to come together. In the future, the Secretariat and our disciples will have to go in-depth exchanges. Today we will accompany each other so that we can cooperate with each other in the future."
Yuan Gan Yao’s words are reasonable.
The three provinces and six ministries system was the core of the administration of the Tang Dynasty, and all policies were inseparable from the Shangshu Province, the Secretariat, and the Menxia Province.
The Secretariat Province is under the jurisdiction of six ministries and is responsible for the formulation of policy administration, while the Secretariat Province is responsible for making edicts and documents, and the Menxia Province is responsible for cashing in the emperor's orders.
In other words, the strategy formulated by the Secretariat needs to be reviewed by the Secretariat, and then the Secretariat writes the edicts and documents and handed them to the Secretariat. The Secretariat is responsible for the most important conclusions and stamps. If the strategy is recognized by the Secretariat, it can be truly announced. If the Secretariat does not agree, it will be returned to the Secretariat and re-formulated.
This is also the relationship between the Secretariat, the Secretariat, and the Secretariat, and the Secretariat.
However, because the three provinces have decentralized power, it will inevitably lead to mutual disputes and inefficiency. In order to coordinate actions between the three provinces, the heads of the three provinces regularly discuss matters in the political affairs halls of the branches of the provinces. Therefore, the relationship between officials of the three provinces is no longer clearly distinguished.
But there is no doubt that no matter what policy, it is necessary to stamp the seal of the prime minister of the three provinces before it takes effect.
Even if it was Li Longji's imperial edict, it would be impossible to count without the seal of the prime minister.
Today happened to be the day when the prime ministers of the three provinces gathered to discuss official affairs. Because of this, Yuan Gan Yao, who was in charge of the Ministry of Education, came to Pei Min, who had just taken over the Ministry of Education.
Pei Min will not refuse the kindness of the two big bosses.
It turned out that the Shangshu Province was the leader of the three provinces and had the highest status, but with the continuous decentralization of power, the Shangshu Province was already raised by his stepmother. The Shangshu Pushe, the highest chief executive of the Shangshu Province, was not considered prime minister without adding the third rank of the same Zhongshu.
Among the many prime ministers, Pei Min's status is still second to Yuan Gan Yao and Li Yuanhong.
"Yuan Xiang, Li Xiang is really a timely help! I'm not afraid of you making jokes. I really don't have the realization of being a star. I thought I would go to the Secretariat to learn about the situation later and perform my duties so as not to make any jokes. I didn't say that I was embarrassed, but I also let Your Majesty down. Now I have Yuan Xiang, Li Xiang's advice, that's no better. Please come into the house first, and wait for a while, and then change your clothes."
After Pei Min finished speaking, Li Yuanhong invited Yuan Gan Yao to the house and quickly changed his clothes.
The three of them went to the palace together and sat in three carriages, which was obviously apart.
Yuan Gan Yao invited Pei Min and Li Yuanhong to ride with him.
Pei Min had no objection.
Although Li Yuanhong's momentum is greater than Yuan Gan Yao, he is nominally the prime minister and did not steal the prime minister at this time because of his prestige.
The three big men of Shangshu, the Secretariat, and the Ministry of Education were sitting in a carriage, so they were naturally indispensable to discussing the current affairs.
Yuan Gan Yao and Li Yuanhong both asked about Li Longji's condition.
Although they were the prime ministers, they had never seen Li Longji for a few times.
On the one hand, people are in panic nowadays and they need to take charge of the overall situation. On the other hand, Li Longji and Gao Lishi are not allowed.
Li Longji was not willing to appear in front of all officials sickly, and heard them say all kinds of words without nutrition.
Therefore, the origin of Gan Yao and Li Yuanhong's detailed information about Li Longji was limited to seven days ago.
Let’s find Pei Min together today, which also has this meaning.
Pei Min did not show much worry, but instead smiled: "Yesterday, Your Majesty, Your Majesty was in good spirits and said a little. In general, he was still concerned about the affairs of the temple. I hope that I will assist the prince well during these days of his recovery."
He concealed the intention of Li Heng as the crown prince in Li Longji's intention.
After yesterday's deep thinking, Pei Min has several preliminary plans for the current situation.
The best solution is undoubtedly Li Longji recovered, and nothing happened.
Pei Min doesn’t have to worry about Li Heng causing trouble. With Li Longji here, Li Heng can’t make trouble.
It’s just that everything needs to be prepared. Pei Min did not meet Liu Shenwei yesterday, and I don’t know how serious Li Longji is, and whether Li Lao can turn decay into magic.
If something really happens, Pei Min decides to support the current prince.
Even if Li Yan is indecisive and timid, it's okay.
Compared to the worse Li Heng, Li Yan is a good choice.
Pei Min also said a few good things to Li Yan here.
Yuan Gan Yao and Li Yuanhong felt relieved when he heard that Li Longji was in good spirits.
Yuan Gan Yao sighed, "I have always been worried about your Majesty's condition. He is very energetic and is a great news. As for assisting the prince, it is my duty, and I will never refuse."
Li Yuanhong has a better impression of Li Heng than Li Yan, but he also knows that destruction and establishment is not an easy thing, and the same answer is also true.
The carriage slowly arrived at the Imperial City.
Menxia Province, the Secretariat Province is located near Tai Chi Palace.
The Shangshu Province is located in the center of the imperial city, and everyone must enter the imperial city and undergo investigation.
Even the prime minister is no exception in the important land of the imperial city.
Even if you act like a show, you have to go through the motions.
This matter was when officials were placing the slogan, and officials of all sizes outside the imperial city gathered together to undergo a simple inspection.
Yuan Gan Yao and Li Yuanhong's prime minister posture were together, which naturally attracted the attention of the public. They all looked forward to it and wanted to greet him and make a fuss.
Yuan Gan Yao and Li Yuanhong got off the car one after another.
Pei Min followed closely behind. Compared to Yuan Gan Yao, Li Yuanhong's carefulness, he jumped down and landed steadily.
Pei Min's appearance caused a low voice.
No one expected that there were three big bosses hidden in this car.
Yuan Gan Yao, Li Yuanhong, many officials have seen each other.
Pei Min is not common. Although Pei Min's Shangshu Province, which was in charge, is located under Yuangan Yao and Li Yuanhong, no one ranks him behind the two.
First of all, the identity of the prince is something that both of them do not have, not to mention that Pei Min also led the troops from all over the four towns.
Therefore, many officials' enthusiasm for Pei Min is far from the source of Gan Yao and Li Yuanhong.
Yuan Gan Yao and Li Yuanhong are civil officials, who pay attention to demeanor and respond politely to the greetings of many officials.
Pei Min was different. He abandoned literature and followed military affairs for more than ten years. The habits of soldiers had long been engraved into the bones and could not be changed.
He responded to the officials' greetings with military salutes, and he wanted to hang a long sword, his body was as tall as Taiyue and his aura was magnificent.
Yuan Gan Yao and Li Yuanhong, beside him, all had pale hair, and Yuan Gan Yao even had a little hunchback.
The momentum reflected by the three people is completely different from the same level.
