Not everyone has the courage to write a memorial impeaching the Minister of Personnel.
Those who don't have the courage to write are flattering the wrong people and are afraid of the wrong people.
Shen Qinyan doesn't mind making some money from those who dare to write.
It depends on whose memorial suits his taste.
Xiang Kun went out for a walk and accomplished nothing, but received numerous impeachments like snowflakes.
He has entered the cabinet, and although he is an ordinary cabinet member, he can also be called prime minister.
The memorials would be reviewed in the cabinet. He would suppress a few of them, but could he suppress all of them?
Obviously not.
On the desk of Cabinet Chief Huo Jun, there was a pile of impeachment memorials that were taller than him.
He asked Xiang Kun to come and talk.
Xiang Kun was extremely respectful to Huo Jun. This Prime Minister, who had served in three dynasties, had been a favored minister in every dynasty and was very capable.
Huo Jun asked him, "What is the Ministry of Personnel?"
The Ministry of Personnel is the head of the six ministries and has the power to appoint and dismiss civil officials. The Minister of Personnel is called the "Heavenly Official".
Xiang Kun did not answer, explaining: "I don't buy or sell official positions..."
Huo Jun pointed at the memorial.
Xiang Kun said: "Those people in the Censorate are like dogs smelling blood. They are eager to blame before the government has found out the truth. I am innocent."
Huo Jun asked again: "What is the Ministry of Personnel?"
Xiang Kun pursed his lips and said after a while: "It is the management place of court officials."
Huo Jun leaned back in his chair, his cloudy eyes unfocused, as if he was looking at Xiang Kun, or as if he was staring blankly at a certain place in front of him.
"What does the drawing of lots mean?"
Xiang Kun gritted his teeth and said, "The method of transferring officials is to pit a few people and make more people. For the sake of fairness, we will not be affected by the officials in the department, so we draw lots for transfer."
Huo Jun spread out the letter in his hand and let Xiang Kun read it himself.
The price is written on the note.
The county magistrate gets three or two thousand taels, and the prefect gets five thousand taels.
Even a prefect can do it with ten thousand taels of silver.
Xiang Kun refused to admit it.
Huo Jun pushed all the documents on the table into the bamboo basket on the side of the table.
The bamboo baskets were filled with "nonsense" memorials that had been screened out, such as greetings and inquiries, which did not need to be submitted to the emperor.
He kept only this price list.
Huo Jun doesn't care about Xiang Zuqian's affairs.
Huo Jun wants to take care of the mess within the Ministry of Personnel.
