You are already cultivating immortality, who would fight with you alone?

Chapter 359: Appointment of Prime Minister Fang

In this way, it will be possible to effectively carry out necessary review and supervision on the Nine Ministers who are in high positions and have extensive influence.

After all, the situation at that time was extremely complicated, with various interests intertwined.

In particular, the position of Grand Marshal not only firmly controls judicial and prison affairs, but also holds a large number of troops and directly commands the army, with enormous power.

Faced with this situation, Liu Yuntian acted decisively and quickly established the Jinyiwei.

From then on, judicial and prison affairs were handed over to the Jinyiwei for full management, while the power to mobilize and appoint the National Protection Army was cleverly retained in the hands of the Taiwei.

The emergence of the cabinet is exactly the same, and it also shoulders the important mission of checks and balances.

Whenever Liu Yuntian issued an order, the first to receive the instruction was the cabinet.

They will carefully review and study every detail to ensure that there are no omissions or deviations.

These orders will only be passed to the Nine Ministers after the cabinet completes the preliminary review.

Moreover, throughout the entire process of the Nine Ministers performing their tasks, the Cabinet always plays a crucial role - they need to track the progress throughout the process and promptly urge all work to proceed smoothly as planned.

Once a problem is discovered or an obstacle is encountered, the cabinet has the right to take appropriate measures to resolve it to ensure that Liu Yuntian's will is implemented without fail.

It can be said that the emergence of the Cabinet and the Embroidered Uniform Guard greatly reduced the power of the Nine Ministers.

The cabinet at this time was under the control of Lord Qian. Lord Qian was the respected old man who had openly asked Liu Yuntian for the path to immortality in the court before.

He has been through many ups and downs, and has always stood firmly on Liu Yuntian's side without wavering. He is highly valued by Liu Yuntian, and also has a pivotal position and influence in the cabinet.

At this moment, a loud shout was heard: "Mr. Liu is here!"

The voice was as loud as a huge bell, and it came from Jin Dachuan's mouth.

As Jin Dachuan's announcement sounded, everyone's eyes turned to the entrance.

Liu Yuntian, wearing a gorgeous and solemn dress, walked in with steady steps.

Behind him, followed closely by a group of well-trained Jinyiwei, all of whom were tall and straight, with stern faces and long swords on their waists, exuding an awe-inspiring aura.

In an instant, the sacrificial site, which had been somewhat noisy, became completely silent.

All the officials were on high alert, their backs straightened, and they stood in place respectfully and silently.

Just as Liu Yuntian casually passed by the Internal Supervisor, his originally brisk pace suddenly slowed down. Then he stopped, raised his head slightly, and looked forward casually, without deliberately looking at the Internal Supervisor.

At the same time, he raised his right hand and gently stroked his chin. After a moment of deep thought, he asked, "I heard that the internal steward drank to his heart's content last night. He was in high spirits! I wonder if he has sobered up from the intoxication of the wine now?"

Hearing Liu Yuntian's sudden question, the internal manager, who had been so arrogant and domineering just now, suddenly trembled all over as if he was struck by lightning.

His originally arrogant face now turned pale as paper due to fear and tension.

His legs were so weak that he could barely stand. He could only bend down tremblingly, bowed respectfully to Liu Yuntian, and stammered in response: "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Liu. I... I am sober now."

However, Liu Yuntian didn't seem to believe his words. He just shook his head and sighed, "That's not right... That Hundred Flowers Wine was made by me. Its strength is so great that it can't be compared with ordinary wine."

"Moreover, the internal manager drank a whole jar of liquor last night! That jar weighed more than three pounds, and it was strong liquor! He vomited as many as six times. With such a huge amount of liquor, can he really sober up completely in one night?"

As Liu Yuntian finished speaking, the internal manager's eyes suddenly widened to the size of copper bells, and his fear was evident in his expression.

At this moment, he no longer had any of his previous arrogance, and he didn't even have the courage to look up and look Liu Yuntian in the face.

There was a crisp sound of "plop", and the internal officer knelt on his knees without hesitation, and then knocked his head heavily on the ground, shouting repeatedly: "I am drunk! I am not sober yet!"

"Please...please, Lord Liu, forgive me!" For a moment, the atmosphere in the whole scene was extremely solemn. Everyone around was silent, and no one dared to speak out to break the suffocating silence.

Not only was the internal supervisor panicking, but even the officials gathered around were all terrified. They felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, with their hair standing on end and a chill running down their spines.

Everyone thought to themselves: If he knows such extremely private things as how much alcohol they drank and how many times they vomited at home in such detail, doesn't that mean that they have no secrets at all in front of Liu Yuntian?

There is no doubt that this seemingly ordinary conversation is actually a stern warning and reprimand to the internal control officer.

It was as if he was warning him not to take chances, even if he was standing far away and whispering to each other in private, thinking that no one could hear him.

But as long as it is under Mr. Liu's nose, no movement can escape his eyes and ears!

Seeing the embarrassed look of the Internal Steward, Liu Yuntian chuckled, "Sir Internal Steward, your ancestors are a perfect match for our Liu family!"

"You and I should be on equal terms, why are you so nervous?"

"I am terrified! I was just drunk!"

Seeing that the Internal Supervisor was already frightened, Liu Yuntian was too lazy to pursue the matter. He raised his head and glanced at the new champion who had just spoken to the Internal Supervisor.

He chuckled and asked, "The appointment of cabinet officials must go through me. How come I don't remember someone like you?"

"How did you get into the cabinet?"

The new cabinet champion bowed and performed a standard court etiquette, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "Your Excellency, the commander of the Jinyiwei, I was appointed by Prime Minister Fang himself."

"Although the commander-in-chief was promoted to the 'Fourth Duke' by the late Emperor Wu Lie, according to the etiquette, your position as the Fourth Duke is an empty one. You cannot interfere in the decision-making of Prime Minister Fang Qingfang, one of the Three Dukes, right?"

Hearing this, Liu Yuntian's eyes narrowed continuously, and the murderous intent in his body seemed to be concentrated on his face.

"hiss……"

"I'm so horny!"

"Is it true that this calf has never died?!"

"..."

In an instant, there were sounds of people gasping for breath and noisy discussions all around.
