The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 533
Hearing that the person assigned here was Mei Guangyan, Jiao Shun was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and was speechless.

Last time, he reported everything that happened in Mei Mansion to Emperor Longyuan without concealing the details, and the emperor just reprimanded him a few words, and then lightly revealed the matter.

Jiao Shun originally thought that this matter was over, but who would have thought that the emperor would relegate Mei Guangyan to the engineering school as a student official without making a sound.

The purpose of the emperor doing this is nothing more than two kinds. One is to use Mei Guangyan to check and balance him, but this is basically impossible, because engineering is almost inevitable. In addition, it is impossible for the nobles to follow Jiao Shun's lead everywhere. What the emperor really needs to worry about is whether Jiao Shun can control the situation, not whether he will cover the sky in engineering.

Besides, with Mei Guangyan's abilities and his current reputation, who would believe that he can control himself like the flourishing Jiao?

So there is actually only one answer, and that is that this matter is purely out of the emperor's bad taste!
perhaps……

The emperor is gearing up right now, maybe waiting for the continuation of that article!
In other words, does this count as body writing?
Jiao Shun sighed, and waved his hand weakly at the yamen servant: "You go back and tell my father that there is no need to make a fuss. Since the emperor arranged it like this, there is a reason for it."

Just like Jiao Shun's determination that this must be the emperor's bad taste, Laiwang who didn't know the inside story must have thought that the emperor was out of balance, and then worried that his son would lose his favor, so he sent someone to send a message in a hurry.

The yamen servant immediately responded with clasped fists, then turned the horse's head and turned back the same way.

Jiao Shun lowered the curtain, and the coachman whipped his horse and chased the Xue family's convoy in front.

at the same time.

Meifu.

Mei Guangyan, who was dressed in filial piety, sat blankly in the living room, her eyes were lifeless and her face was ashen, as if most of her three souls and seven souls had been lost.

After Mrs. Mei's first seven days, Mei Guangyan handed over Ding You's paperwork as required, and began to pack up and prepare to help Ling go south. Who would have thought that she would suddenly get the will to seize love this morning.

To be honest, Mei Guangyan was a little secretly happy at the beginning, after all, in his current situation, if he had been mourning for three years, it would be hard to say whether he would be able to recover by then.

And if he is robbed, he can at least keep his current official position.

I don't want to be secretly happy, but I heard the eunuch who passed the decree announce that he spread rumors to slander Taizu and Shizong. Personal morality is bad, and the order is to demote officials to work and study.

Although the priesthood says that the specific position is to be determined, but if you think about it with your butt, you know that since he is smeared with the word demoted, then he will be treated from the seventh or eighth rank at most when he comes to engineering.

This is a great humiliation for any official with two ranks of Jinshi, and it is an unbearable humiliation for Mei Guangyan who has been gilded in the Imperial Academy for many years!

So much so that after listening to the decree read out, the first thought in Mei Guangyan's mind was: I would rather die than suffer this humiliation!
But soon he thought of his current notorious status quo. If he really died against the order, he might not only not get the sympathy of the public, but would become an even bigger laughing stock.

Furthermore, his mother had just passed away, and if he died again, who would the orphans and widows of this family rely on?

With this thought, the courage to resist disrespect was halved immediately.

So the little eunuch who delivered the decree urged him briefly, and he knelt down in a daze to thank him. When he regained consciousness, the little eunuch had already returned to the palace to hand in the decree.

So he slumped on the chair slumped, without saying a word for more than an hour, only breathing more than a dead person.

If it was normal, Mrs. Mei would have stepped forward to comfort her.

But after she heard the decree, she immediately thought of the dirty deal that happened in the mourning hall on the night her mother-in-law passed away—if the master went to work under Jiao Shun, how would she deal with herself?

Confused, she naturally didn't care about comforting her husband, and just held her heart and soul in the room in panic all day long.

Seeing that the husband and wife were immersed in their respective emotions and couldn't extricate themselves, Mei Baosen suddenly yelled from the yard: "Father, father? I heard that you were kidnapped?!"

Mei Guangyan frowned subconsciously, looked out, and saw her son rushing into the door excitedly, although he was wearing filial piety clothes, there was nothing related to the word "filial piety" in his eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and he couldn't help scolding him with a dark face. Said: "Nie Yi! What is there to be happy about such things?! I asked you to book a boat?"

It was precisely because Mabelson was sent to the East Bianmen Wharf to board the passenger ship scheduled to go south early in the morning, so it was only at this time that he heard that his father had been robbed of his love.

Hearing his father's question about ordering the boat, he couldn't help curling his lip inwardly, thinking that the emperor has already lost his love, even if the boat is booked, so what, can he still resist the order and continue to help Ling go back to his hometown in Jinling?

But he didn't dare to disobey his father after all, he hurriedly corrected his figure and said respectfully: "I have made a verbal order, but I have to pay ten taels of money to make it count."

After finishing speaking, she couldn't wait to say: "Father, the matter of taking love..."

Mei Guangyan interrupted his words with her eyes, and said in a muffled voice: "Not only to seize love, the emperor also demoted my official position, and asked me to go to the engineering school to be a subordinate of that Jiao thief!"

Speaking of this, the depression on his face became even worse.

It is shameful enough for the majestic Hanlin to be sent to serve as a school official for a clay-legged craftsman, but he still has to work under Jiao Shun, who was born as a house slave...

The Jiao thief has a deep connection with the Xue family, how can he not give himself a pair of shoes?

My father was demoted to engineering school. In fact, Mabosen heard about it just now. When he saw his father mentioning this matter, he gritted his teeth and said hurriedly: "Father, this is also true. It's not necessarily a bad thing..."

"Um?!"

Mei Guangyan tried to interrupt her son again with gloomy eyes.

But this time, Mei Baosen didn't stop there, but continued: "Think about it! Who doesn't know that our family and that Jiao thief are at odds? Can he still take the initiative to transfer you to engineering? So this must be the emperor himself I mean, but why did the emperor transfer you to engineering?"

Mei Guangyan was stunned for a moment, then her eyes gradually brightened, and she murmured: "Could it be that the emperor is also worried that the Jiao thief is covering the sky with his hands, so..."

"It must be so!"

Mei Baosen insisted, and danced excitedly: "According to me, Dad, you have a lot to do in engineering!"

Mei Guangyan didn't care about scolding her son for being impolite, and slowly got up from the grand teacher's chair, her originally stooped figure was also quite straight, and tremblingly said: "Yes, yes! Since your majesty wants to check and balance the scorched thief for the father, naturally It is impossible to leave me idle, and it will be of great use to go to engineering, or it is unknown if I will be demoted or promoted in secret!"

"It must be so!"

Mabelson is even more confident in his deduction.

Obviously, the embarrassing incident of killing his grandmother cruelly and self-defeating last time did not make him get rid of his smartness.

The father and son in the living room became more and more excited as they talked, but Mrs. Mei, who was eavesdropping inside, smiled wryly. Both her husband and son seemed to believe that Jiao Shun had absolutely no reason to transfer his enemy to him as an official.

But she doesn't think so.

It's not that Mrs. Mei thinks too much of herself and really thinks that she can charm Jiao Shun with her looks, but she puts herself in the situation and thinks, what could be better than calling the enemy around in the open, ordering her around like a slave, and insulting him behind her back? A more vicious and exciting way of revenge?
A gentleman would naturally disdain such a thing, but how could a treacherous and sycophantic traitor be scrupulous?

The more she thought about it, the more she realized that Mrs. Mei felt sad for a moment, thinking what evil did she do in her life to be reduced to such a land? !
…………

Qianqing Palace.

At the same time when the Mei family was happy and sad, Emperor Longyuan, who had dealt with the follow-up matters in the early court, finally had some free time, and asked Qiu Shi'an to press the acupuncture points on his head as ordered by the imperial physician, and asked with his eyes closed: " Did I send the decree for seizing love that I drew up yesterday to the Mei family?"

"Go back to Lord Long Live."

Qiu Shi'an hurriedly said: "The servant who passed the decree came back to hand in the decree an hour ago. The servant saw that you were busy with political affairs, so he held back and didn't report it immediately."

"Um……"

The emperor hummed noncommittally, but the little essay by Jiao Shun came to mind uncontrollably.

To be honest, this is the first time he has seen such a realistic narrative of later generations, but it is still the 404 type, which is really memorable.

The content of the story is still so curious that he has to dig it out from time to time for aftertaste.

But no matter how novel things are read for a long time, it will inevitably be boring. The emperor wrote two imitations in private, but they were always unsatisfactory.

One is to satisfy my own bad taste, and I want to see what other interesting things can happen between the two sides; the other is to imply that Jiao Shun should not stop and continue to update.

In other words, what errand should I arrange for Mei Guangyan to promote the next development?
Emperor Longyuan waved his hand, signaling Qiu Shi'an to step down temporarily, and then found the "Protocol on the Official System of Engineering and Learning" presented by the Ministry of Officials on the imperial case.

Emperor Longyuan was very dissatisfied because this official system was too biased towards civil servants and discriminated against craftsmen and officials, so he ordered the Ministry of Officials to make a new survey. Because of this, the imperial decree only said that officials would be demoted to engineering and learning, but did not mention specific official positions.

Although this protocol must be greatly revised, it cannot be guaranteed, but right now it is for entertainment, and it is used as a reference. It is not harmful to designate Mei Guangyan a position that is close to Jiao Shun and will not affect the operation of engineering.

According to the plan of the Ministry of Officials, the official system of Gongxue is basically a shrunken version of Guozijian. Except for Jiao Shun's sacrificial wine, all the sixth-rank officials will be abolished, and the four halls and six halls will also be reduced to three halls and four halls.

It is planned to set up one person [Jiao Shun] for offering sacrifices to the fifth grade, one person for the sixth grade secretary, and one person for the seventh grade master.

The three halls are the Supervision Hall, the Classics Hall, and the Gewu Hall.

As the name suggests, the Office of Supervision mainly plays the role of supervising the upper and lower levels of engineering and learning. It has a supervisor of the seventh rank, and it is planned to choose a part-time job from the censor of the Inspectorate.

The Hall of Classics is a bit of a misnomer. After all, there are only a handful of engineering books handed down from generation to generation, but it is absolutely impossible to support a Hall of Classics.

Therefore, according to the preliminary plan, this classics hall is mainly responsible for compiling engineering teaching materials - there are two people from the eighth grade classics.

The Gewu Hall was established by Jiao Shun and the emperor. At that time, some skilled craftsmen will be mobilized from the Ministry of Industry to conduct research and demonstration discussions, and then combine it with teaching.

However, although the Ministry of Officials drafted the structure of the Gewu Hall according to the emperor's wishes, it refused to set up actual official positions, and only suggested that the craftsman official should be transferred to fill the position.

As for the so-called four halls, they are mainly responsible for the actual teaching work. According to the subjects, they are divided into Mingjingtang, Mingxintang, Mingsuantang, and Zhizhitang.

The former two are still Confucian, and the latter can be regarded as a combination of Confucianism and Mohism-the Guozijian already has a professor of Ming arithmetic.

Only the final Zhizhitang can be regarded as the real profession of engineering.

Among these four halls, Mingjing Hall and Mingxin Hall each have one doctor of Confucian classics of the eighth rank and one assistant student of the ninth rank;

When they arrived at Zhizhitang, they trained four people from the Jiupin Engineering Department.

Not only is the official position the lowest, it is far inferior to a doctor of Confucianism, and he even refuses to be named a doctor, and only calls it "discipline", which nakedly reflects the discrimination and suppression of officials by civil servants.

Generally speaking, craftsmen and officials are still limited to the ninth rank and from the ninth rank, and half of the main subjects taught are Confucianism. If this protocol is really implemented, then the engineering school is not far from the nameless.

Although Emperor Longyuan opened the "Protocol on the Official System of Engineering and Learning" just for fun, but seeing this blatant conspiracy to occupy the magpie's nest again, he was still full of anger.

After thinking for a while, he picked up a pen and circled the two official positions of master book and classics.

Civil servants are bound to win the position of secretary, and he really does not have a suitable candidate in his hands, and the official position of supervisor has always been held concurrently by the censor of the inspectorate, even if he has not found a reason to deny it for the time being .

Then the two official positions of master book and classics must be filled by craftsmen, otherwise what is it called engineering?
Just call Guozijian Niuma branch school and forget it!

However, these two official positions are inseparable from documents in the literal sense, and it is logical for civil officials to fill them up.

It's better to change the individual names first, and then...

Emperor Longyuan hung his wrists and pondered for a while, but before he could think of a suitable title, he felt a dull pain in his temple.

"Ah~"

He sighed, and annoyedly dropped the Zhu Pi Yubi in his hand.

Since the sudden nausea and retching that night, Emperor Longyuan has secretly consulted the doctor several times, and the feedback he got was almost the same. He said that it was a sign of a cold head, and asked him to eat as lightly as possible. It's good to combine work and rest.

But as an emperor, with all kinds of ambitions in his heart, how could he not work hard?
All that can be done is a combination of work and rest.

Thinking like this, Emperor Longyuan waved his hand at Qiu Shi'an impatiently, and after Qiu Shi'an led the people back, he took out the 404 from the locked bookcase...
