Chen Hu glanced at everyone and said, "Everyone's goals are consistent. The situation has reached this point, so we should be united."

An Jian frowned and said nothing.

"Zhongxun, tell me what you think!"

Wang Chong spoke.

Lu Zhongxun pondered for a moment and said, "How many of us can enter the Political Affairs Hall as prime minister, there is no meaning in quantity."

An Jian said coldly: "Lu Zhongxun, your tone is really quite good. The prime minister is no longer taken seriously by you!"

Chen Hu looked at An Jian and said unhappily: "Let Lu Zhongxun finish his words, otherwise, you can speak."

An Jian's face looked a little ugly, but he still shut his mouth and didn't say anything.

"pulse."

Lu Zhongxun said indifferently: "As long as we pinch the emperor's pulse, even if we don't have the position of prime minister, we can achieve our goals."

Zhan Taiyiheng asked: "What are you referring to?"

"Secretariat of the Secretariat."

"The Secretariat of the Secretariat is useless and does not matter."

Some raised questions.

Lu Zhongxun said in a deep voice: "It was not important before, and it did not mean it was not important now. The existence of the Secretariat was not its authority, but the timing. As long as the time was used well, it could undermine the power of the prime minister."

"Lu Zhongxun's words are reasonable, and the Secretariat follows the past and the future. If the emperor uses it well, he can completely isolate the power of the minister."

Xie Shiyuan agreed, and he had a deep understanding of this. In recent times, he had issued several orders, but when he arrived at the Secretariat, all of them were detained. Although the matter was finally done through designated officials, in terms of government affairs procedures, this is not in accordance with the rules. If this continues for a long time, it will greatly weaken his authority. Moreover, these are just small matters and nothing is left. If a nationwide government affairs order is needed, it will not be completed without passing the Secretariat.

The Secretariat said it is important. It has no real power, it is just a decoration. You say it is not important. It is an indispensable link in government affairs procedures. If you want to formally form a government order and policy, you must pass this link, and it cannot be avoided at all.

Even if the resolution is passed by the court and the whole thing is passed, the resolution will have too many opportunities to be reached in the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat, and it will take you for a year or two. Of course, the cost of doing so is very high, but when the political struggle really reaches a certain level, who will still calculate the cost and consequences?

Lu Zhongxun said: "Now, what is the lifeline of the emperor? It is fiscal reform. If we master fiscal reform, it will dominate the entire government. If we want to participate, we must have an entry point instead of blindly inserting it. Even if we go in, we will be at the mercy of others and will not get too many benefits."

Everyone understood something after hearing Lu Zhongxun's words.

For example, Liu Guanghui, who led the financial reform with the Minister of Justice, was not his position as Minister of Justice and Prime Minister, but the emperor gave him the executive power of the reform, and Qin Anming. In the same way, he was the Minister of Rites, but what was important was not his own position, but the power to dispatch personnel in the entire financial reform. Under the premise that the right minister of the Ministry of Personnel was vacant in the Political Affairs Hall and the Minister of Personnel Li Zhong was not in charge of affairs, Qin Anming was almost the spokesperson for the Minister of Personnel, and it can be said that he was naked and could be hot.

The most important political affairs of the current dynasty are financial reforms. As long as you can participate, you can often get rapid promotion and extraordinary promotion. As for the great power of personnel in charge of this matter, Qin Anming's power is imagined.

Chen Hu said: "Which position do you want to seize?"

"Shishu Secretariat."

Lu Zhongxun said: "Our bottom line is very simple. Choose one of us, take the post of the Secretariat of the Secretariat, enter the Political Affairs Hall as the Minister, and insert it into the financial reform affairs."

After hearing what Lu Zhongxun said, everyone had already fully understood that the current political structure and financial reforms were above everything else, and the six ministries' yamen had become vassals. Under such circumstances, it was not very meaningful to enter the political affairs hall as the Minister of the Six ministries.

"I'm afraid you are the only one who is Lu Zhongxun, who is the most suitable for such an important position."

Xie Shiyuan said this with a smile.

With this sentence, everyone's eyes suddenly flashed, and each had their own thoughts.

"I have just been a one-year member of the Left Minister of Rites and I am still inexperienced, so it is not suitable."

To everyone's surprise, Lu Zhongxun actually declined such a great thing.

Chen Hu smiled and said, "Who do you think will do it? It's appropriate?"

Lu Zhongxun said indifferently: "Who is there any good candidate for the head of the Chen family?"

Chen Hu narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Mu Wen has been in the court for a long time, and his fame and qualifications are enough. It should be appropriate for him to serve as the Minister of the Secretariat."

An Jian waved his hands repeatedly: "Who is not better than me, it's better to choose another talented person."

An Jian, who was dissatisfied just now, became humble at this time. Of course, his humility is indeed very humble!

Chen Hu laughed and said, "This is everyone's resolution, so don't be humble."

An Jian suppressed the excitement in his heart, nodded, and agreed.

Xie Shiyuan frowned, looked at Lu Zhongxun, and then looked at Chen Hu.

The second topic is about the Privy Council.

The establishment of the Privy Council is closely linked to the Shenwu Army. It is like a sharp knife hanging over everyone's heads. In response, Lu Zhongxun proposed to select a spokesperson and cooperate to minimize this threat.

Xie Shiyuan smiled and said, "Hu Zhibing is brave and resourceful, and is very suitable for us."

Lu Zhongxun expressed silence regarding Xie Shiyuan's proposal.

Hu Zhibing was Zhao Tiancheng's younger brother, and the Zhao family had a very close relationship with the Xie family. Zhao He launched a coup and Hu Zhibing was one of the main generals of the army. However, in the end, Hu Zhibing was able to escape punishment and was highly valued. He was appointed as one of the six major generals of the Shenwu Army. The reason why this ended was that Xie Shiyuan put a lot of effort into it.

"Zhongxun, what are your opinions?"

Chen Hu asked out loud.

Lu Zhongxun said: "I think Su Chi is good."

Xie Shiyuan objected: "Su Chi is a rebel, how can we use such a person?"

Lu Zhongxun said indifferently: "It is precisely because Su Chi was born into a rebel army and has a bad reputation that he can only rely on us. Can't such people be better controlled and merciless?"

"I agree with Lu Zhongxun's point of view."

An Jian reciprocates his favor and immediately expressed his approval.

Wang Chong naturally agreed.

Subsequently, Chen Hu and Zhan Taiyi Heng also expressed their agreement one after another.

The minority obeys the majority, and this matter is settled.

There are always people who are happy and sad in everything. At the beginning, An Jian was in a bad mood, but in the end, he was undoubtedly the best one, and Xie Shiyuan, who was in a good mood, might be a little unhappy.

After the meeting, Xie Shiyuan did not say hello to everyone and left here with a ugly expression.
