Chapter 565 Do it well, don't be afraid

March is coming to an end, April is coming, the spring breeze is like a bath, and the willows are green and pink.

Such a day is not only suitable for outings, but also for entertaining guests.Wu Dui, the new minister of the Ministry of War, is treating guests today, inviting them to "eat a light meal".

Wu Dui did not treat guests at an outside restaurant or inn, but at his own home.He used to be an official in the capital and head of the military department, so he had a mansion in the capital, but it was more than ten years ago, so the mansion is small and old.After returning to Beijing this time to serve as a soldier, Wu Dui disposed of the old house and bought a new one, which was twice as large in size, but it was only medium-sized.

Although the area is small, but the new house is clean and tidy, so he invited Gao Yushi to have a banquet here.

When Gao Wushi came, he asked Cao Ke to inform him first, and handed over 200 taels of congratulations, which was congratulations on Wu Dui's move to the right and his housewarming.Wu Dui went out to meet him in person, and opened the middle door to invite Gao Yushi to enter.

The banquet has been set up, and it is indeed just an ordinary family banquet, with a dozen dishes and a jug of wine.

"Congratulations to Shixiong Senior High School, the champion of the six first prizes, and the leader of this dynasty." Wu Dui is already fifty-five this year, but as a rule, the nephew of his mentor should be called Shixiong, so he called Gao Yushi Shixiong.

"It's just a fluke, brother, don't praise me." Gao Wushi smiled and raised his glass: "I want to toast to brother, brother is promoted to the army, and from then on he will be the honor of the department. It's not far."

Wu Dui had a drink with him, and said with a smile, "it's an unexpected joy for Dui to have today. How dare you miss the chancellor. But brother, you, Jane is in the emperor's heart. Maybe ten years in Yutang, you can go straight to the forbidden hut. Who can compare ?”

Gao Wushi laughed and said: "Senior brother was joking, it's not that easy... By the way, senior brother told me to seek the truth."

"It's impossible for others, but it may not be impossible for you." Wu Dui nodded, and said with a smile: "Seeking the truth, I will be transferred to at least two levels if I succeed in rebuilding the Great Ming Hui Code with the Chief Compiler and Chief Director. .”

Gao Wushi smiled and said nothing.

Wu Dui put down his wine glass, and sighed slightly: "Your starting point is higher than others. You, the number one scholar, entered the Yutang directly from the compilation of the sixth grade, and the transfer to the first level is to read, lecture, and transfer Two levels is the status of a Bachelor of Attendance and a Bachelor of Attendance."

Gao Wushi chuckled, and said: "How can it be so smooth, I don't know how long it will take to compile this code."

Wu Dui also laughed, but it was very mysterious. He coughed lightly and said in a low voice, "Isn't the compilation of the Huidian almost complete? Now it's just a matter of refining and correcting mistakes and omissions. Although it is very troublesome, But there is always a framework to rely on, if you want to be fast, you can be fast, if you want to be slow, you can be slow-the power of review lies with the cabinet, and the final punishment depends on the emperor's words."

Gao Yushi understands what Wu Dui said. It just means that the compilation of the "Da Ming Hui Dian" has actually completed the overall framework. Now it is mainly to check for omissions and fill in gaps, and what it looks like to be qualified depends mainly on the cabinet. After all, the final decision rests with the emperor.

Probably in Wu Dui’s view, the cabinet is unlikely to target Gao Wushi, and most of them are easy to release, and the emperor’s side is even more impossible. Therefore, when the compilation is completed is actually decided by the Imperial Academy itself, and Gao Wushi is now being rebuilt by the director general. He said that after the re-repair is over, the re-repair is over, and after the re-repair is completed, he will be directly promoted to two levels.

But Gao Wushi knows that this matter is not so simple. The cabinet is indeed dominated by the Gao Party, but Shen Shixing and Yu Youding are auxiliary ministers after all, not two stakes. The Ming Dynasty will remove Guo Pu as the nominal president, which is actually logical. The three vice presidents, Shen Shixing, Yu Youding, and Xu Guo, are really in charge.

Xu Guo and Gao Yushi have known each other for ten years. He is Gao Yushi's senior brother and the lecturer in the Wenhua Palace back then. He may not be too strict, but Shen Shixing and Yu Youding are different.

The two of them are assistant ministers of the same line of mind and learning. Although both of them are known for their gentleness and stability in the ruling and opposition parties, but Gao Yushi has too many traces of manual promotion this time, which may not make them feel disgusted. Gao Yushi would not be surprised if the two of them tried to get in the way.

Zhu Yijun's situation is a little more secure, but Gao Wushi knows that Zhu Yijun is not really in charge now, and the Queen Mother Li has a great influence on him.

Of course, Empress Dowager Li does not directly intervene in government affairs, but she has a habit of handling all government affairs depending on how the cabinet handles them. Let the emperor wait for a while.

Gao Pragmatically estimates that it may be that those events back then made Queen Mother Li feel that she herself did not have the ability to make decisions about government affairs, so everything depends on the decision of the cabinet.If the cabinet is arguing for a while, put the matter aside for a while, and wait for their arguments to be clear.

In fact, this idea is not bad, at least very self-aware, just like the former emperor Mu Zong, Emperor Longqing basically only dealt with personnel affairs, and other specific government affairs were handled by capable people. He used Gao Gong to uphold this idea.

Maybe it was Empress Dowager Li who finally figured out this truth?

So looking back, that is to say, the key to everything lies in how the cabinet sees it: if there are no major accidents, the cabinet should not hinder Gao Yushi, but if there is an accident, such as the compilation is really a mess, Shen Shixing and Yu You Ding couldn't stand it, and if he insisted on making a fuss, the matter would have to be delayed.

In addition to this, there is another point that Gao Pragmatism has not figured out until now, that is, who is Chen Siyu, or which side he is on.

It stands to reason that he was a Jinshi in the 44th year of Jiajing, and his teacher should be Gao Gong, but Gao Yushi hadn't dealt with Chen Siyu much before, and Gao Gong rarely mentioned this person.It is highly realistic to estimate that Chen Siyu may have been selected by Hu Zhengmeng, the deputy chief examiner of the department, or even by a certain economics teacher.

The main reason is that Chen Siyu's results in both the general examination and the palace examination were in the top two hundred at that time. This result is really not very good, but he is still talented and learned after all, so he was selected by the library later, and he entered the Imperial Academy and became a good scholar. Only then climbed up from the Imperial Academy step by step.

In other words, although his teacher is Gao Gong, Gao Gong may not have taken him seriously at the beginning - there are too many disciples of Gao Gong, and it is impossible to pay attention to all of them, right?Back then, the county official from Chen Ju's hometown was also a student of Gao Gong, but he couldn't even see the master when he visited Gao Gong during the Chinese New Year, only Gao Wushi received Gao Gong on his behalf.

That one is still in the high arch point!It can be seen that Gao Gong has too many students, but the number of students who can receive his care is still limited. The other students are great because they enjoy a little fame, plus the privilege of writing letters to Gao Gong...

So Gao Wuzhen was a little worried now, this Chen Zhangyuan didn't want to take revenge because he was neglected by Gao Gong, right?Otherwise, why did he insist on pushing himself out to the Chief Secretary Xiudian?

Of course, if you want to take this opportunity to become an important figure in the high party, it cannot be said that it is completely impossible.

Anyway, we have to observe again to be sure.

Gao Wushi sighed, and said: "The matter of revising the canon, if it is done like this now, I'm afraid it will be too publicized, and then it may become the target of public criticism, from the elders of the pavilion to the scribes, all staring at the meeting of the canon. , as long as there is an omission, you may be impeached."

Wu Dui laughed, shook his head and said, "I don't know why Qiuzhen is so cautious. If I were you, I wouldn't bother to care about those gossips, just do a good job of compiling... Qiuzhen, you have to know, even if someone I want to trouble you, but there are more people who want you to be well, the faster you go, the happier these people are, just do your best and don’t be afraid of other things.”

Gao Wushi's heart moved, and he suddenly understood what Wu Dui meant.

"Thank you for your guidance, brother, I will start to devote myself to the scriptures tomorrow."

Wu Dui smiled and nodded.
