Chapter 5042 Li Si enters the cabinet

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After Lu Yu left Wensheng's residence, he entered the Qianlong Army camp.

    This is a very unusual phenomenon. Now that Lu Yu has gained a great position and controlled the entire imperial capital, he has never ascended to the throne and is sitting in the imperial palace.

    Some speculators secretly stirred up rumors and wrote letters asking for Lu Yu to inherit the throne.

    This is a tradition that existed in the Middle Ages. If it is a strong man who overthrows another rule, he must reject it at least three times before he can inherit the rule.

    However, Lu Yu never answered.

    Neither agree nor refuse.

    All the memorials requesting the title of emperor were left in the Department of General Affairs. Lu Yu secretly ordered people to record these ministers, but he did not take any action.

    Time passed day by day like this, and the entire court was still circulating normally.

    The only thing that is unusual is that the former ministers would go to the Qiankun Hall to face the saint when they went to court.

    But now, if ministers want to meet Lu Yu and discuss political affairs, they have to go to the commander's camp of the Qianlong Army to see Lu Yu.

    This is extremely impolite behavior.

    If it was changed to another emperor, it is estimated that he has been overwhelmed by the accusations of great Confucianism.

    However, Lu Yu is a disciple of Wen Sheng.

    Wen Sheng's personal disciples have a very important status in the Confucian school. Even facing some senior Confucians, they can meet each other as peers and call each other brothers.

    Even Fang Mingzhe, the leader of the Guozijian Jijiu and the conservative school, could not find Lu Yu's problem in terms of etiquette.

    "Your Majesty is messing around, I'm just worried that Your Majesty will leave a bad record in the annals of history." Fang Mingzhe said, vaguely expressing his worries.

    This is also his only powerful method. He ordered the historian to record all of Lu Yu's deeds.

    Since ancient times, no one has cared about his own historical evaluation.

    He believed that the same was true for Lu Yu.

    However, to his surprise, Lu Yu only listened to the report of his subordinates, and he could not deny it, and even asked the historian to continue to record, so he must be true and objective.

    This scene made all the conservative ministers start to feel uneasy.

    The new emperor in front of him didn't seem to be afraid of damaging his reputation at all.

    Everything Lu Yu did seemed to be done according to his own wishes, and he would not be influenced by these foreign ministers at all.

    "An emperor who is not restrained by his courtiers, no one can stop him from doing what he wants to do." Fang Mingzhe sighed, and asked to resign and return to his hometown in frustration.

    Following Fang Mingzhe's departure, everyone felt that this seemed to be the end of an era.

    The power of the conservative faction has completely declined. Although the Lu Party has not entered the power center, a large number of new talents have poured into the court.

    A few days later, the imperial court issued a new appointment, Li Si was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and he was named a bachelor of the Hall of Martial Arts.

    This appointment completely pushed Li Si, a young man, to the forefront.

    There was an uproar in the government and the public, and many people talked about it, but they didn't expect that Lu Yu would let Li Si rise to the sky in one step and become an extremely human minister.

    There are only two people in the cabinet now, and Yang Shouyi, the chief assistant, has not been replaced. He is old and experienced, and plays a role in stabilizing the court.  It's just that anyone can see that Yang Shouyi's power has long been emptied, and the real power is in Li Si's hands.

    What really made many people discuss was not Li Si's age, but Li Si's background.

    He is the inheritor of the ancient Legalists.

    ?From the beginning of the Dayu Dynasty, all the cabinet scholars were Confucian monks, and occasionally military monks took over, but they were not common
