Chongzhen had no objection to Li Banghua's proposal and turned to look at the officials.
There are many new faces among the officials in the court. Most of them were promoted temporarily. They were either Li Banghua's people or several cabinet ministers' people.
Seeing that the other three cabinet members had no objection, these officials expressed their agreement.
"Then do as Lord Li wishes!"
After hesitating for a moment, the Minister of Works, Fan Jingwen, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I resign from the post of Governor of the Beijing Camp."
Chongzhen did not respond immediately, but looked at Li Banghua first.
Li Banghua nodded slightly, indicating that he had known in advance that Fan Jingwen had resigned as the Governor of the Beijing Camp.
Chongzhen's behavior was seen by other people in the court, and they were shocked.
The cabinet chief Li Banghua is so favored!
All of a sudden, members of other parties came up with plans.
"Why do you resign from the post of Governor-General of the Beijing Camp?" Chongzhen asked.
"Your Majesty, there are two reasons. First, the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Rites are busy, and I am also working for the Cabinet, so I am really too busy. Second, the governor of the Beijing camp should be a military general with honors. Now that the siege of the capital has been lifted, we should still follow the court's rules."
Fan Jingwen was telling the truth. The Ministry of Industry was extremely busy. On the one hand, it continued to manufacture gunpowder grenades, and on the other hand, it had to supervise the construction of the Martyrs' Shrine.
As for the Ministry of Rites, it will be even busier in the near future. Because Chongzhen had informed him in advance, the task of the Land Administration of the Ming Dynasty would most likely fall to the Ministry of Rites.
"What does cabinet mean?" Chongzhen looked at Li Banghua.
"We all agree that we should select a military commander from among the nobles."
"In that case, I will approve Minister Fan's appointment. The position of Governor of the Beijing Camp cannot be vacant. Now that all the civil and military officials are here, who do you think is suitable to be the Governor of the Beijing Camp?"
When it comes to public nomination, the Minister of Personnel Qiu Yu stood up excitedly and said, "I recommend the Left Commander Liu Wenyao to serve as the Governor of the Beijing Camp."
