Chapter 1666 decision
The next day, the cabinet meeting.
The king of the country, Qin Heng, and eight other cabinet officials, thought that Ge Tang had died and would absent from the cabinet meeting today.
But what Qin Heng didn't expect was that Xiang Cheng was coming.
Even Xiang Cheng's appearance is very dignified, as if he is no different from his usual serious smile.
However, his face became even more gloomy.
Qin Heng frowned slightly. Xiang Cheng died yesterday and worked as usual today.
This person's forbearance and endurance have really reached a terrible level.
He was a little worried. It would be no good for Chen Ning to provoke such a terrible Xiang Cheng!
He said lightly: "All people are here, then let's start."
"There are a few major events this time, and I want to discuss them with you."
Qin Heng first mentioned the idea of Chen Ning entering the cabinet and adding to the vacancy of the position of Tang Bo'an's senior.
Xiang Cheng raised his hand directly to express his objection.
The reason is that although Chen Ning made great achievements in the northern border, Chen Ning was still too young to enter the cabinet when he was less than 30 years old.
Xiang Cheng's words have just fallen.
Tan Youlun, who was sitting next to him, agreed with Mr. Tan: "Yes, I think Mr. Xiang is right."
"Although Chen Ning has made great achievements in military affairs, he is too sharp."
"The following offenders were in charge and forced to break into Tang Bo'an's house; and the other party was shot directly to death without going through the military court last night."
"What he did may not be a problem, but it did not conform to the procedures and was a bit messy."
"I think he has to be more polished. After two years, I will consider letting him enter the cabinet."
Luo Zhiquan, who has always been loyal to Qin Heng, said, "Mr. Xiang and Mr. Tan have different views."
"I think Chen Ning is a genius. Although he has small flaws now, flaws do not hide their merits."
"We are generally not young. With young people like Chen Ning, we can match the old and new, so that the dull cabinet will have a touch of sunshine."
"Besides, Chen Ning did not become the chief minister when he entered the cabinet, but was in the last seat in the cabinet."
"He is the main focus of learning and the country is just to support scholars. There is no peace."
Soon, the nine cabinet masters of the cabinet disagreed and started arguing.
Qin Heng frowned slightly, and he found that the resistance he encountered when he arranged for Chen Ning to enter the cabinet was greater than he imagined.
There are three main reasons.
The first reason is Chen Ning, Qin Heng's person. Many cabinet masters who have no relationship with him will definitely not agree to arrange for him to enter the cabinet before abdicating.
The second reason is that Chen Ning had committed crimes before, and he committed suicide without permission and forced himself to break into Tang Bo'an's house. In the end, he pulled Tang Bo'an off the horse, which could touch the other cabinet masters' bad intentions.
The second reason was that Chen Ning directly forced Xiang Xichu without the military court procedure last night, and his behavior angered Xiang Cheng, and Xiang Cheng must have strongly opposed Chen Ning's entry into the cabinet.
Qin Heng saw that the cabinet ministers were arguing endlessly, and he also had a headache.
He said coldly: "Don't make a noise."
"Since everyone in the cabinet has different opinions, then vote."
After saying that, Qin Heng raised his hand: "I agree with Chen Ning's entry into the pavilion."
Luo Zhiquan immediately raised his hand: "I agree too."
Xiang Cheng raised his hand indifferently: "I object!"
Tan Youlun: "I also object to it!"
"I object!"
"I object!"
...
Soon, the voting results came out.
Only three cabinet ministers agreed, while six other cabinet ministers opposed it.
Even if Qin Heng's vote is added, it is only four to six votes.
Chen Ning's proposal to enter the cabinet was rejected.
Qin Heng's face looked a little ugly.
From his proposal to let Chen Ning enter the cabinet and was rejected by most cabinet ministers, we can see that the tea was already a little cold before others left.
A few years ago, his reign was at its peak. At that time, he promoted Chen Ning to serve as the commander of the Northern Army. Although he was opposed by many ministers, he could stand against the public and forcibly promote Chen Ning.
But now, he is about to retire from the army, and his influence is getting worse day by day. It is impossible for him to resist the opposition and let Chen Ning enter the cabinet.
He seemed to have grown much older.
