Episode 1: New arrival, Chapter 627: Influence

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    As Li You guessed, the other ministers in the cabinet were a little restless.  As a bachelor who is not really a prime minister in the system, but is regarded as a prime minister and needs to do the work of a prime minister, he must have influence, otherwise he will lose his authority to govern.

    In their perception, influence is something invisible and intangible, and they need to be accumulated bit by bit through their own words and deeds.  But this concept has been overturned recently, and the culprit is Li You.

    In the Pravda in hand, the influence seems to be visible and tangible.  It is quite obvious that Mr. Lu Ge published column articles in three consecutive issues and was relaunched as Pravda. His influence has increased visibly. In addition, Mr. Yang seems to have made a lot of gains.

    ??????????????????? Several other cabinet elders are counterexamples, counterexamples of one thing going down and the other going up, so they feel uncomfortable.  If things go on like this, where can their old faces be placed in the court?  Of course, faint regrets are inevitable. A few days ago, Li You sent them a piece of paper to request a draft, but they threw it into the wastebasket with disdain. Now this result is a bit asking for trouble.

    "If you change your attitude now and write an article for the sake of publishing it in the newspaper, it will be like turning your back on yourself and it will be quite shameless.  Even if you can put aside your dignity issues and take the initiative to submit articles to Pravda, will you be ridiculed, made things difficult, and ridiculed by Li You?  With Li You's big heart, there is no guarantee that this won't happen. At that time, he will really take the initiative to get beaten in the face.

    We cannot let Pravda become a duo between Mr. Lu Ge and Mr. Yang Ge!  This is the consensus of Xu Shoufu, Peng Cifu, Yuan Ge Lao, and Jin Ge Lao.  However, there is a consensus but no good solution.

    If someone else is the CEO of Pravda, no matter whether this person is promoted or transferred, there is always a way to reach a tacit understanding after joining forces.  But this was Li You, so the elders felt helpless.

    "Don't forget, the previous cabinet elders had already tricked Li You into driving Li You away from the office of the Imperial College Office. As a result, the official office was completely destroyed. It could even be said that it was a total failure.

    And Li You gave up his job at the Ministry of Industry and other good jobs this time.  Take the initiative to ask Ying to go back to the reporting office to clean up the mess.  In the eyes of others, you take the overall situation into consideration, regardless of personal gains and losses.

    At this time when he is about to come back to life, if several cabinet elders drive Li You away from the newspaper office again, it will be a complete act of being extremely shameless and shameless in front of the emperor and the civil and military officials of the court. It is certain that he will have a shameless reputation.  .

    Thinking of this, several cabinet ministers came up with the idea that maybe Li You had already figured this out, so he simply left the newspaper office and privately invested money to run a Mingli newspaper to run the official newspaper.  Can't do it?  Could it be that Li You wrote to ask for the manuscript in the first place.  Is it also playing hard to get, inducing them to deliberately mock and ignore?

    It has to be said that Mr. Li's image in the minds of several big bosses was too demonized. Even if Mr. Li was capable of scheming at that time, there was no way that he would have the opportunity to return to the newspaper office, or that Shi Jijiu would voluntarily resign as president and  Recommend him to take office, assuming that he can regain control of Pravda?

    If you can calculate all these, you will be a god, and Li You is just taking it one step at a time.  In other words, Li You, who has lived in two generations, has very forward-looking insights and a sense of hype.  It is too easy to innovate and take the lead in the battle for public opinion.

    Can we only endure until Li Youjiao's army is defeated, everything is reversed, prosperity reaches its peak and then declines, or he makes mistakes on his own initiative?  According to the development of things.  It is indeed possible, but it will take a long time. Can the elders wait?  Especially when Li You is thirty or forty years younger than them

    If you are just "a little" unable to sit still now, then the elders will soon become really unable to sit still because something happened in the court.

    Some time ago, the governor of Shandong reported to the court that the province had extensively planted cotton in recent years, and that it was very profitable to sell cotton along the canal to the weaving workshops in the south of the Yangtze River.  It affected other farming activities, so I asked the court for instructions on how to deal with it.

    Regarding this incident, which Li You regarded as "the sprout of capitalism" in his mind, the cabinet did not debate the outcome, and the court meeting could not reach a consensus. It can be regarded as a small hot topic in the court recently.  Therefore, Mr. Lu Ge published an article "The Good and Bad of Cotton Planting in Shandong" in the column of Li You's edition of Pravda. This is by no means unreasonable.

    After Mr. Lu Ge¡¯s policy was published and sent to the desks of various government offices through Pravda, I don¡¯t know why.  The debate became much quieter, and Mr. Lu Ge's opinion gradually became the mainstream view.

    In fact, this matter itself is not big, but the meaning revealed is profound, making other elders feel a great sense of crisis.  If the previous cabinet elders were concerned about the issue of face, then what they need to worry about now is the issue of power.

    It can be said that Li You showed the courtiers the power of newspapers as a public opinion platform from a high-end level, which made them feel psychologically shocked again after looking at the very low-end Mingli Daily.  As the saying goes, all roads lead to the same destination, but there are thousands of ways to run a newspaper?

      Regarding Mr. Li's use of praising Mr. Peng Ge, the whole court turned a surprisingly blind eye, and not many people expressed their opinions on this for the time being.  One is the shadow of a person's famous tree. If others have opinions, let others talk about it. Why should I provoke Li You for no reason?  Secondly, President Li did not give other big guys a chance. The other big guys refused to submit articles and even laughed at Li You for not knowing his own abilities. Therefore, President Li is not to blame for this situation.

    "However, the four pavilion elders are not weak. Although they were defeated by an army, their overall strength is definitely much stronger than Li You. Let's see how the situation continues to develop.

    On this day, Li You was sitting in the Imperial College, looking at the account books of the newspaper office, calculating the money deficit and how to turn losses into profits.  Suddenly I heard a report saying: "Zhu Fanghe, a member of the Ceremony Department of the Ministry of Etiquette, came to visit Li Qianxian."

    This seems to be the first time Mr. Fanghe has come to the Yamen in person to see him?  For this family friend, the official etiquette standards should obviously be higher, so Li You hurriedly went out to greet him and said: "Rare guests, rare guests."

    Zhu Fanghe laughed a few times, "I am in charge of school affairs, but when I come to the Imperial College, you call me a rare guest. People who don't know think you are ridiculing me for neglecting my duty."

    ¡°This¡­ Li You shook his head and smiled bitterly. Even when he talks in clich¨¦s, his words depend on the person and the occasion. If he¡¯s not careful, he might almost offend someone.  He invited Zhu Bulang into the public room, served tea and asked, "Mr. Fanghe is here today. Why are you here?"

    Zhu Bulang had a cheerful temperament and was familiar with Li You, so he did not beat around the bush and said directly: "The matter is not a big deal at all. The Minister of Rites, Haishangshu, asked me to send you a message, asking you to send another draft request document to the princes.  "

    Li You knew clearly when he heard this. This must be not only the meaning of Hai Shangshu, but also the meaning of the cabinet members.  It's just that they couldn't let go of their figure and face, so they asked Zhu Bulang, a detached person in the court, to "timely rain" the message.

    As long as I send them another document asking them to contribute, they will naturally have the opportunity to actively write articles and submit articles to Pravda.  However, I have already given them the steps once, why should I give them another step in vain?

    Zhu Fanghe said to Li You: "Brother, I've had a hard time these days. The emperor intends to promote me to the position of doctor in the ceremony department. There is no problem with the official department. Now I need a nod from the cabinet, otherwise the name will not be justified."

    "Congratulations! It's not easy for Brother Fanghe." Li You raised his hand and immediately understood what Zhu Fanghe meant.

    ??In fact, theoretically speaking, a fifth-grade doctor is nominated by the Ministry of Personnel and can be appointed after approval by the Emperor. Government administration is a matter between the Emperor and the Ministry of Personnel.  But in fact, if the cabinet does not nod, it is indeed unfair, especially since Zhu Pi has to issue an edict to the cabinet.

    If others are okay, if they can get through the joints between the officials and the emperor, and at the same time they are not afraid of offending the cabinet, then there is no need to pay attention to it, but Zhu Fanghe cannot.  He has a royal family status, and he is very sensitive when he is in the civil servant circle. If he is not careful at all, he is afraid that gossip will fly all over the sky.  Therefore, the procedures need to be more rigorous than others, otherwise it will mean that the position is not correct.

    It has been eight years since Zhu Fanghe was selected for the imperial examination in the spring of the second year of Jinghe, and he was only a foreign minister of the Ministry of Etiquette. This was obviously the result of being suppressed by the courtiers because of his clan status. The emperor had nothing to do, but he didn't want to leave the honor  Qi route.

    Now that he has the opportunity to be promoted to a doctor in the core department of the Ministry of Rites, it is very rare for Zhu Fanghe, and the cabinet will use this matter to make an article about him.

    Li You thought about it for a few times and thought about the cause and effect of this matter.  Before he could speak, he heard Zhu Bulang say again: "Brother can see clearly what's going on here. The cabinet is just using Brother Wei's little future to bargain with you. It is said that Brother Wei is deeply favored by the emperor, and others also sell a lot of money."  It saves face, so you don¡¯t have to care about official rank.

    ¡°But Brother Wei thinks it would be good if you take the opportunity to make peace with the cabinet members on the newspaper issue.  You can't just stay in a stalemate like this forever. In the short term, you can certainly gain the upper hand by taking advantage of the opportunity, but over time, it will always be detrimental to you. After all, you are the fourth pavilion elder.  "

    Zhu Bulang knew Li You's character and was worried that Li You would "even a dead dog climb the wall" this time, so he spoke first to persuade him.

    Li You smiled slightly, "Actually, I am also waiting for this opportunity. Since Mr. Fanghe personally made peace, then I have no intention of disobeying. However, I also have a few ideas, and I will discuss them with Mr. Fanghe in detail."

    A quarter of an hour later, Zhu Fanghe couldn't help but sigh: "If nothing else, I admire your ability to create opportunities even if there are no opportunities. No wonder you chose this position in the official selection a few days ago. This time  If it really comes to pass, you will be the youngest official in the imperial court. This idea is simply exquisite to the extreme."

    Li You said enigmatically: "There is never a lack of opportunities in the world. What is lacking is the vision to discover opportunities."

    A newspaper is just a platform. Within the scope of target customers, of course, the more people participating in the platform, the better. Whether they are your comrades or enemies, the more the better.  This is not a place for emotions. Business is business and it has nothing to do with personal relationships.

    From the beginning, Li You never thought of excluding those cabinet bosses from Pravda. Only if they use and rely on this platform, then this platform will be valuable, and Li You, who is in charge of this platform, can gain substantial benefits.  Influence.

    Now, finally, they can no longer hold their breath.
