Of course, it is not easy to strengthen the power of Liu Shoufang's political opponents. For any key position, Liu Shoufang will compete with his political opponents and place people. After all, Liu Shoufang is not stupid. Liu Shoufang will place people wherever you want.

Generally speaking, for key positions, such as the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Liu Shoufu must fight for it to the end and place his own people. He will do whatever he can to do this, including slandering his opponents and even physically destroying them.

As for the inconsequential positions such as the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites, Liu Shoufu can fight for them, but if he really can't fight for them, forget it. After all, it is easy to be discovered if he always physically eliminates his opponents.

And once discovered, no matter how powerful Liu Shoufu is, he will not survive. After all, he can continue to be the first assistant after killing people. How is it possible? He cannot bear the public opinion. After all, he has not yet reached the point where he can cover the sky with one hand. , or in other words, he has no soldiers and military power, so he cannot kill people without being punished.

The military power of this dynasty is currently jointly controlled by the cabinet and the emperor. No party can mobilize military power. Otherwise, the military power must be in the hands of the emperor. The emperor can do whatever he wants, and Liu Shoufu can also do it. You can do whatever you want, and you don't have to make such swishy calculations with others.

Although Liu Shoufu will fight hard for some key positions, ordinary people cannot get them.

However, even if you strive for it, people are different.

For example, if some people are good, Liu Shoufu puts that person in a key position and it is very useful. But some people are not good or even hinder him. Liu Shoufu puts that person in a key position. Not only is it useless, but it may even be counterproductive.

Therefore, An Ran's idea is not to compete with Liu Shouzhu for key positions, but she will find a way to replace the people assigned by Liu Shufu in key positions with pig teammates to hinder Liu Shoufeng and weaken Liu Shoufeng's strength. OK.

This is not a difficult task. After all, even if Liu Shoufu wants to arrange his people in key positions, his people are still competing with each other. It is impossible for a good position to be without competition.

In a competitive situation, Enron can help the pig teammates use their strength to let the opponent take the upper hand.

Now, the Minister of Civil Affairs is getting old and is about to replace him, so Liu Shoufu is going to use his several capable people to see who can be hired.

As for An Ran, she planned to put someone in the position who, according to her investigation, was quite serious about corruption. When this person takes the position, his corruption and corruption would be exposed after a while, and this person was highly recommended by Liu Shoufu. Those who go up, if such a big thing happens, will definitely become a handle for the emperor and his political opponents, and they will attack him severely. Maybe then, Liu Shoufu, who can be forced to give way, will release some positions to the emperor or his political opponents. The people arranged for people to go up.

If this situation continues, one day Liu Shoufu's power will gradually weaken.

So soon, a conversation took place in the Queen's Palace.

Her number one loser, Concubine Ding, said to Empress Liu: "Mother, the candidate for Minister of Staff...has Liu Shoufu decided who it is?"

Queen Liu heard her ask this and glanced at her, obviously wondering why she asked this. Did her father want to be the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs? But I have never heard from my father that Mr. Ding is planning to compete for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. After all, Mr. Ding is now the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and is in charge of the money bag of the imperial court. This position is also very good. If he does not become the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, If she ran to be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, then her father would also have to go to find candidates for the Minister of the Ministry of Hubu, which would also be a headache.

Empress Liu, who didn't know the reason, said: "No, why do you ask about this?"

Concubine Ding smiled and said: "Sure enough, it's no wonder that Mrs. Gao was anxious - she found my mother and asked me to help express my love in front of my mother. I couldn't shirk it, so I had to tell my mother that I would talk to my mother. The empress has just mentioned it, but I don’t know whether it can be done or not.”

But Concubine Ding knew that since she mentioned it, Empress Liu would definitely sell her face. After all, Empress Liu has lost her right-hand man Cao Concubine, and then Concubine Yu is in the spotlight again. If she doesn't win over her, she will be weak in the palace. of.

Sure enough, just as Concubine Ding thought, Empress Liu listened to her words and smiled and said: "I will mention it to my father. It shouldn't be a big problem. After all, my father has said before that he prefers to let Mr. Gao take over." The Minister of the Ministry of Officials."

In fact, her father never said that at all, only that there were several candidates, and Mr. Gao was one of them.

After hearing what Empress Liu said, Concubine Ding couldn't help but be happy knowing that there was a high probability that the matter would be successful. After all, it meant that she was doing well in the palace and could accomplish such things. In this way, her mother's family would be happy with her. She takes it more seriously.

The more attention her mother's family pays to her, the more money they will provide her to spend in the palace, and the better her life in the palace will be.

Concubine Ding would speak for Master Gao. Naturally, An Ran sent someone to instigate her in front of Madam Gao, saying that Queen Liu valued Concubine Ding and asked Madam Gao to find Madam Ding and ask Concubine Ding for help, which might succeed.

The reason why An Ran encouraged Madam Gao to ask Concubine Ding for help was, firstly, because Concubine Ding had an unusual relationship with Empress Liu, and as long as she was willing to intercede, it would definitely be useful; secondly, because Concubine Ding's mother was from the same hometown as Madam Gao - My hometown is in the same place - it is useless to ask Mrs. Gao to find anyone else. Looking for Mrs. Ding, with the friendship of fellow villagers, there is still hope to persuade Mrs. Ding. After all, with this relationship, Mr. Gao will become the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs in the future. It's also a good thing for the Ding family.

An Ran's guess was correct. Master Ding really agreed to help Master Gao, so he asked Mrs. Ding to enter the palace and told her daughter about it. Then what happened was that Concubine Ding went to talk to Queen Liu about something.

And Empress Liu did give Concubine Ding this face as An Ran expected, especially after the death of her other powerful assistant Cao Bin, she naturally relied more on Concubine Ding, so it was natural for her to intercede. It means that she knows and will tell Liu Shoufu.

In order to win over Concubine Ding and Master Ding, Empress Liu talked to Liu Shoufu. After Liu Shoufu hesitated, he finally agreed, and Master Gao took over as Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

Anyway, Mr. Gao is also one of the candidates he is considering, so he can take over.

An Ran saw that Lord Gao had succeeded in taking over the position of Minister of Civil Affairs. He couldn't help but smile and secretly said to Liu Shoufu, just wait for Lord Gao to trick you.

And An Ran's doing this also has the effect of killing two birds with one stone - afterwards, Empress Liu heard that her father was unlucky because of Master Gao, and she was afraid that she would be angry with Concubine Ding, blaming her for being bad, saying favors, using the back door, and letting her father do it. If such an inappropriate person goes up, something will happen.

And Concubine Ding would definitely be angry if she expressed her anger like this, and then there would be a rift in the relationship between the two.
