a thousand. Others merely learn some physical training for health and have no actual combat capability."This is not hard to verify, Your Highness. If you don't believe me, send someone to check."Li Ch...Chapter 1142 According to your opinion, how

When this appointment was announced, the officials were astonished.

The atmosphere in the Taihe Palace suddenly became tense in an instant.

It's not that Dantai Jing is unworthy of this position, but... he lacks the ability to handle it!

There are only three people here.

Zhao Xuanji taking the lead in the Ministry of Officials is undeniable.

The remaining positions of the Ministry of Works and the Secretariat were naturally assumed to be given to Zhang Bwu and Fu Yuzhi, respectively.

but it did not.

The Eastern Palace gave the Zhongshu Province to Dantai Jingzhi.

Dangtai Jing's prestige is enough, but his seniority is not.

His prestige surpassed that of Zhao Xuanji's, but it was only academic prestige. In terms of political experience within the court, Dantai Jing had almost no foundation whatsoever.

Moreover, since his entrance into officialdom, Dantai Jing has played the role of a mascot, drawing the hearts of scholars across the land. The only tangible achievement he can boast is overseeing the construction of the imperial academy.

There was no objection to this.

Now that the Eastern Palace has given the position of the Ministry of Central Secretariat to Dàntáijìngzhī, then there's only one remaining position, the Ministry of Imperial Household. Is it for Fù Yùzhī or Zhāng Bìwǔ

When all the officials were deeply shocked and conflicted, Zhao Xuanji looked up at Li Chen.

He looked up and saw Li Chen looking at him too.

Their eyes met in mid-air.

Zhao Xuanji's face was expressionless.

He understood Li Chen's meaning.

Two peach, kill three scholars.

Clichéd, but effective and user-friendly.

The position of the Ministry of Central Secretariat was given to Dàntái Jìngzhī. With only one remaining position in the Department of State, a struggle was inevitable.

Zhao Xuanji thought to himself, if he were the one using this strategy, he would make it even crueler.

Instead of directly declaring the jurisdiction of the subordinate provincial decrees, he, as Minister of Personnel, chose to consult with Zhang Biwu and Fu Yuzhi on how to handle them.

Thus, the three remaining university scholars within the cabinet would instantly engage in infighting. If one were to forcefully subdue another using their authority, it would leave an irreparable rift.

Just as Zhao Xuanji was thinking to himself, Dantai Jingzhi's words of gratitude had already been spoken.

"My Lord, thank you."

Dàn Tai Jìng's wry smile.

Actually, he disliked this position himself. All he wished for in his lifetime was to establish the Royal Academy successfully.

But politics... are not his to decide.

The Eastern Palace needs his cooperation, and he can only cooperate.

Li Chen nodded, cleared his throat, and said, "The General of the Military Supply Department will be Hu Shifan, the former commander of the Liaodong Army, who has come to the capital."

The general, followed closely by the head official of civil servants, announced.

Now that the deputy head of civil officials has been announced, the next step is to announce the deputy head of military officers.

This order is fine.

But the military faction was somewhat unhappy that the post of Generalissimo of the Logistics Department had fallen to Hu Shifan.

Li Chen then said: "General Hu Shifan is older, but logistical work is crucial. We still need an experienced and capable veteran to oversee it for a few years. Especially these past few years, with the Logistics Department just being established, we need someone who can keep things stable. General Hu Shifan is the most reliable choice."

Su Zhending immediately chimed in, "Your Highness is thoughtful. I agree."

Li Chen's meaning was very clear: Hu Shifan is old and can't work for a few more years. If you guys want to climb up the ladder, there's still an opportunity.

Su Zhen'ting also stated his support, and the military group fell silent.

Anyway, there are still plenty of fruits. There will be my turn eventually.

Shifting his gaze, Li Chen turned to the civil officials and said calmly, "As for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the last of the three provinces, this palace has not yet considered a suitable candidate. This position is crucial and directly affects national affairs, so this palace tends to choose from among the existing cabinet scholars, that is, between Zhang Bwu, Lord Zhang, and Fu Yuzhi, Lord Fu. As for who to choose specifically, Minister Zhao of the Ministry of Officials, what is your opinion"Chapter 1486: A Mountain of Corpses and a Sea of Blood, Nine Deaths and One LifeThen kill!
