Why did Liu Wei decide to appoint seven ministers instead of eight or six?
The answer is very simple, the singular number can avoid a situation in which the two factions are in dispute and stalemate, so as not to delay the major event of the military aircraft.
No matter how the seven people stand in line, they will divide the number, and the minority will obey the majority.
Liu Wei sat at the high end of the Taiji Palace, glanced at the civil and military officials at his feet, and said loudly: "I now appoint seven ministers to assist the prince and preside over the government during the period of my imperial expedition to the south.
I have set up a military cabinet for you in the Hanyuan Palace, and whenever there is a major military matter that cannot be decided quickly, I will discuss it behind closed doors, vote by a show of hands, and the minority obeys the majority."
"Obey the Order" Under the leadership of Lu Kang and Liu Ji, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty held the wat board and led the promise together.
"I'm now starting to appoint a minister."
Liu Wei's eyes were like torches, and he issued an edict in a loud voice, "First, Situ Lukang" Lu Kangnai is the leader of the Jiangdong clan, the head of the civil and military officials, and an old man who is nearly seventy years old.
Although Liu Wei knew that Lu Kang's existence would breed Wu Ruyi's ambitions, he could not refute Lu Kang's face no matter what, which would make the entire Jiangdong clan feel cold, and make the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu feel that the emperor could not distinguish rewards and punishments and was narrow-minded.
And Liu Wei still trusts Lu Kang's character, although he gets older and hotter, but in general he is an upright old minister.
Perhaps the biggest wish in his heart is to make the Lu family prosperous, at most to put Wu Ruyi on the throne of the queen, not to help Wu Ruyi covet the emperor's throne.
If Lu Kang knew that his adopted granddaughter had been an emperor in history, he was afraid that he would be able to scare the old man half to death Liu Wei even felt that if one day he died early, and Wu Ruyi was ready to usurp the throne if he could, Lu Kang would definitely jump out to stop her.
Because everyone has a bottom line, everyone has to be faced, and everyone pays attention to their reputation after death.
For Lu Kang, the biggest bottom line is to support Wu Ruyi, and if he takes a step forward, he will surpass Lu Kang's thunder pool.
And the identity of the patriarch of the two dynasties of Lu Kang and the head of the three princes cannot be tarnished by Wu Ruyi, and the reputation of a chaotic minister and thief will be on his back after his death, after all, after the death of Lu Pheasant, the history of the Lu family's extermination has not been far away.
Lu Kang is not surprised, no matter in which aspect, the Minister of Gu Ming must also have his own place.
Immediately holding the wat board in his hand, he took a step forward to make a command: "The old minister will definitely do his best to assist the prince and ensure the peace of the state."
Liu Wei bowed his head slightly, and continued to say in a loud voice: "The second minister who cares for his life, Prime Minister Xun Wenruo" "Obey the order" Xun Yu confidently and calmly took a step forward and bowed to the edict.
As an early minister of the dragon, the wang clan of Yingchuan climbed up step by step from the grassroots officials, and was humble and loyal.
Xun Yu, who can not only govern the country, but also make suggestions, is really the best candidate for the minister.
"The third minister, Liu Ji, the secretary of the Ministry of War," Liu Bian's eyes were solemn, and he spit out the name of the third person with full anger.
As the earliest top strategist, as Liu Bian's former teacher, Liu Ji, who is strategic, can help Liu Biao analyze the overall situation of the world, control the situation, and also check and balance the court to avoid unnecessary turmoil.
Whether from the point of view of personal ability or status, the Minister of Gu Ming cannot do without Liu Bowen, the secretary of the Ministry of War.
"The minister obeys the order, and he must be exhausted and obtuse, and assist the prince" Liu Bowen took a step forward and took the order.
Liu Wei continued to make appointments: "The fourth minister of Gu Ming, Hubu Shangshu Mizhu" Why is Mi Zhu the leader of the Xuzhou gang clan, and the emperor's uncle, and controls the money, food and materials of the entire Han Dynasty, Mi Zhu's status can never be ignored.
Moreover, Xuzhou's Mi family has 10,000 customers, and the fertile fields are all over the north of Xuzhou, and the economic strength is still above the Lu family, even if the giants of the current dynasty such as Lu Kang, Kong Rong, and Liu Ji are also respectful to Mi Zhu.
In addition, Liu Wei found that when Gu Yong came out that day to push Wu Ruyi to the throne, Mi Zhu did not stand up until the end.
This shows that Mi Zhu is not too willing to watch the Lu family sit big, but the Lu family has many talents, and the Mi family can't compete for a while.
Appointing Mi Zhu as the minister of Gu Ming can also suppress the Jiangdong family in the court and avoid causing trouble when he is not in the capital.
Compared with Lu Kang's confidence, Mi Zhu was a little surprised, and immediately took a few steps forward in fear, and slammed to the ground: "Weichen respectfully obeys the holy decree and swears to assist the prince to the death, so as not to let the court have the slightest wave." ” "The fifth minister, Di Renjie, the secretary of the Criminal Department," Liu Wei pointed at Di Renjie and announced it in a solemn voice.
Di Renjie is in charge of the Criminal Department and is responsible for managing the place, and any trouble made by the Jiangdong Shi clan will fall into the hands of Di Renjie.
Moreover, Di Renjie is clever and wise, upright, and naturally the best choice for the minister.
"Obey the order" Di Renjie looked calm, took a step forward, and received the order cleanly.
"The sixth minister, Fu Junzhonglang, will Meng Heng" Liu Bian's gaze swept to the row of generals and summoned Meng Hui out of the ranks.
Although Meng Heng's grade is low, as the highest military general in the Gyeonggi Garrison, Meng Heng is naturally more qualified to be elected than the six Shangshu of the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Agriculture, and the Ministry of Medicine.
Dressed in a scarlet military robe and wearing armor, Meng Heng strode out of the ranks, holding a wat board to salute: "Weichen respectfully obeys the holy decree and will do his best to ensure the tranquility of Jiangdong."
In this way, six of the seven ministers have been decided, leaving Kong Rong, who is the most qualified to be elected as one of the three princes of nature, and the others who are eligible to be selected are Xu Guangqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture, Gu Yong, the secretary of the Ministry of Education, and He Shen, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, as well as Buqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Medicine, who has just been converted from acting to regular.
But Kong Rong felt that the situation was a little bad, in terms of qualifications and status in the Manchu Dynasty, he was second only to Lu Kang, if the Son of Heaven planned to make himself the minister of Gu Ming, I am afraid that he would have already summoned himself to the ranks "Could it be that Your Majesty is annoyed that I am too close to Lu Kang" Kong Rong, who is nearly fifty years old, secretly pondered in his heart, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, "But it's not wrong to push Concubine De as the queen, I really can't find anyone in the harem who is more qualified to be the queen than Concubine De."
Liu Wei's gaze swept over Kong Rong's body, and slowly fell to the round and chubby He Shen: "The last minister who cares for his life, He Shen, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry" He Shen raised his two eyebrows, a pair of goldfish eyes blinked a few times, and walked a few steps to the center of the hall: "Your Majesty is serious, the minister must swear allegiance to Your Majesty, and your Majesty will fight wherever the minister points to."
The previous six ministers are not too controversial, and they can all convince the public in terms of connections, status, seniority, and contributions.
And He Shen is a little worse, and he can't pee in the same pot as many honest and honest ministers, always leaving people with a feeling of flattery and opportunism.
But Liu Wei appointed He Shen for his own purpose, firstly, He Shen is the mouthpiece of the Empress Dowager He, who can help the Empress Dowager He understand what happened in the court, control the harem in time, and prevent Wu Ruyi from making waves.
Second, He Shen is a sleek person, and he can come out and carry the black pot with the mud at the critical moment, and stir the stagnant water.
Moreover, the brothers and sisters of Buqi and Bu Lian were all brought up by He Shen, and with the full support of Buqi, He Shen could also gain a firm foothold among the ministers of Gu Ming.
Although He Shen's shortcomings are equally distinct, so far he has not been found to have made mistakes, and under the strict supervision of Jinyiwei, no clues of He Shen's corruption have been found.

As the saying goes, "the water is clear, there are no fish, and there are no friends when people are observed", this sentence is applicable everywhere, and it is the same in the court.
Besides, this is just a short-term cabinet, and it will last for a year at most, and it is not his own minister, and there is nothing wrong with He Shen.
However, Liu Wei also knew that it was a bit unpleasant to let Kong Rong, one of the three princes, lose the election, so he excluded Lu Su, who went to Taiwan to issue the holy decree, from the minister of Gu Ming, which was regarded as a comfort to Kong Rong and a step to him, after all, the high-ranking and powerful official Shangshu also accompanied the defeat.
Seeing Kong Rong's ugly face, Liu Wei smiled: "Kong Sikong has to serve as Sikong, and he also has to work part-time in the Ministry of Rites, and he is busy with official business.
This fateful cabinet won't bother you, take care of your health."
After listening to the words of the Son of Heaven, Kong Rong's face improved a little, and he came down the steps: "Gu Ming is mostly some military and political affairs, and the old minister doesn't know anything about military affairs, so he won't have a vegetarian meal."
After appointing the seven ministers who took care of their lives, Liu Wei beckoned his six-year-old son Liu Qi next to the imperial case to come out of the ranks, and Zhengse advised: "During the period when I am not in Jinling, the major affairs of the military aircraft are decided by the seven ministers who care for their lives. ” "The child obeys the emperor's holy decree" Six-year-old Liu Qi was dressed in a prince's suit and agreed in a childish voice.
At this moment, Mu Guiying, the virtuous concubine standing next to Liu Wei, stepped forward and arched her hand: "Your Majesty, the concubine has a book."
Since Li Shimin crossed the sea to attack Jinling the year before last, and Mu Guiying helped defend it, Liu Wei passed down a holy decree to allow Mu Guiying to enter the military council.
However, the Senate Military is different from the Senate on the government, Mu Guiying only comes to the Taiji Hall to listen to the military plan and express his opinions when there is a major military event in Jinling, and he does not dare to go to the court when there is nothing to do on weekdays.
Moreover, Mu Guiying was also very cautious, and when he was in the court, the detachment military expressed his opinions, turned a deaf ear to political affairs, and did not say a word.
Mu Guiying suddenly stood up at this time, Liu Wei could guess what Mu Guiying was thinking with his toes, and said with some embarrassment: "It doesn't hurt if Concubine Ai has anything to say."
Mu Guiying said firmly: "Your Majesty, the concubine requests to follow the royal drive south to Jiaozhou, protect the family and defend the country, please fulfill Your Majesty." t1706231537:
