At the Cabinet Office.
Several important yamens in the imperial court were built around the Imperial City.
The cabinet was the closest to the palace. It could even be said that the cabinet was originally the palace.
This place was specially carved out by Taizu from the palace and handed over to the cabinet for office use.
Therefore, the cabinet was the most important.
Lin Jiancheng, dressed in court clothes, walked into the greenhouse of the cabinet.
It was November now, and it was already autumn. A heated brick bed had already been lit in the greenhouse.
There were originally three seats in the greenhouse. The main seat was the position of the chief assistant of the cabinet, and the remaining two seats were for the two secondary assistants.
However, he was the only Grand Secretary in Lin Jiancheng's cabinet.
Therefore, there was only one seat in the greenhouse.
Even though Lin Jiancheng was the only cabinet secretary, there were still many officials in the cabinet.
Other than the Grand Secretary, there were three other scholars in the cabinet.
They were all scholars, and the top few in the imperial examination were mainly good at writing articles.
The job of the scholar in charge of books was to draft the imperial edict for the emperor.
This was also a very important job.
Zhang You, Xue Cheng, and Li Wenxuan were the names of the three scholars.
They also had their own office in the cabinet.
The three scholars stepped forward and bowed to Lin Jiancheng.
Although the scholar was directly responsible to the emperor, Lin Jiancheng was the chief assistant.
Naturally, they also showed a respectful attitude.
Lin Jiancheng was also the Prime Minister and had great power. The three young scholars naturally did not want to offend him.
There were only a few official officials.
The only ones left in the cabinet were the officials.
In the Great Qian Dynasty, officials and officials were completely different.
An official was the official position of the imperial court and enjoyed a salary.
Moreover, the identity of an official also had many privileges. Only then could one be considered a scholar.
In other words, officials were official workers.
However, it was different for officials. Officials could not be promoted to officials normally.
In theory, every official had the possibility of promotion.
However, it was different for officials. They had almost no way of being promoted.
There were a large number of scribes in the cabinet, responsible for copying and transmitting documents.
Although he sounded like an official, he was actually like the typing staff of the big government in the past.
However, among the officials, there were some who had more power.
The position of the fifth branch of the Hall of Governmental Affairs was very important.
The official position of the fifth branch of the Hall of Governmental Affairs was responsible for connecting various departments.
The cabinet was the most important department in the Great Gan Lord Dynasty, but it was only a decision-making department.
The cabinet's orders also needed to be completed by the six departments.
The fifth branch of the Hall of Governmental Affairs was responsible for delivering orders to the six ministries.
At the same time, the fifth branch of the Hall of Governmental Affairs was also responsible for supervising the six departments and carrying out the orders of the cabinet.
Therefore, although this position was an official, it was very important.
The previous fifth branch of the Hall of Governmental Affairs had already resigned along with the previous chief assistant.
The current official of the fifth branch of the Hall of Governmental Affairs was Lin Jiancheng's advisor and his trusted aide, Lin Fan!
Lin Fan could be considered a distant relative of Lin Jiancheng. After failing the imperial examination in his early years, he had sought refuge with Lin Jiancheng.
Appointing the fifth branch of the Hall of Governmental Affairs was also considered the authority of the chief assistant of the cabinet.
Thus, Lin Jiancheng appointed Lin Fan as the official of the fifth branch of the Hall of Governmental Affairs.
After the scribe left, Lin Fan said,""Old Master, I heard that the Imperial Censorate has put up many memorials to impeach you.”
"Li Fang claims to be ill and stays in the capital to see me make a fool of myself. I don't need to guess to know who's behind these censors."”
Li Fang was an assistant minister and had a lot of connections.
Li Fang was probably behind these censors 'impeachment of Lin Jiancheng.
However, Lin Jiancheng did not know that the one who organized these censors to impeach Lin Jiancheng was the Eight Virtuous Kings hiding behind the scenes.
Li Fang was just pushing the boat with the current and fanning the flames.
If Lin Jiancheng went down, he might be able to make a comeback.
Therefore, Li Fang claimed to be ill and stayed in the capital.
"I just don't know what Your Majesty thinks." Lin Fan said worriedly.”
Lin Jiancheng also sighed. The seat of the chief assistant of the cabinet had not yet warmed up, so Lin Jiancheng naturally did not want to move his seat.
However, if the Emperor did not support him, all the civil officials in the court could scold him.
At this moment, the scribe outside the door started to make a ruckus.
A few eunuchs carried the memorial into the cabinet.
"Lord Chief, this is the memorial that His Majesty approved yesterday.”
Xiao Dezi smiled and handed the memorial to Lin Jiancheng.
Collecting and distributing memorials was also an important function of the cabinet.
Lin Jiancheng took the memorials and Xiao Dezi left the cabinet with the eunuchs.
"Master, let's see how His Majesty will approve it!”Lin Fan immediately reminded.
The cabinet chief had the right to read the memorial.
When the late emperor was seriously ill, there were even times when the chief assistant read the memorial first and wrote down his reply before giving it to the emperor for approval.
However, after Gao Lingfeng ascended the throne, he took away the power to review memorials.
These memorials were to impeach Lin Jiancheng, so he shouldn't have read them to avoid suspicion.
However, Lin Jiancheng's curiosity overcame everything.
He flipped open a memorial from the Imperial Censor and flipped to the end.
"Attacking the chief minister for no reason, fined half a year's salary!”
Lin Jiancheng rubbed his eyes.
His Majesty actually punished the censor!
Lin Jiancheng continued to flip through the other memorials. They all had the same reply.
Lin Jiancheng was completely stunned.
"Master, Master, what did His Majesty approve?”
Lin Jiancheng finally came back to his senses and sighed."The emperor's grace is vast!"
