Chapter 1036 The Only Hanlin Bachelor

With Gui E, Zhu Si's tone has changed, it is not necessary to use it, but it can be discussed with the ministers.

It is also obvious that in the emperor's mind, Gui E is far from Zhu Hao, and it is even possible that he is not worthy of carrying Zhu Hao's shoes.

But all the ministers in the court also knew that Gui E was attached to Zhang Cong. Zhang Cong was transferred to the northwest to serve as the governor of Shaanxi Zuo Buzheng. ?

Because the ministers are not clear about the reason why Zhang Cong was assigned, they just thought that Zhang Cong was not as good as the emperor wanted in some aspects, or the emperor did this to pave the way for Yang Yiqing to return to the court. No one knew that it was actually Zhu Hao Zhang Cong was reported, and Zhang Cong was dispatched to Shaanxi.

Now all the ministers can only ponder in their hearts, who else is more suitable for the position of "Hanlin Bachelor of Rites".

Since it is necessary to discuss rites, it can only be selected from the officials of the Yili school, but none of the orthodox civil servants in the court is from the Yili school. He was elected among those who entered the court not long ago.

All of a sudden, the ministers were in a hurry.

A Tang Yin is about to die, and another Zhang Cong is gone. This Hanlin scholar still insists on someone close to the emperor.

Let us recommend, isn't that embarrassing?
"Do you have any comments?"

Seeing that none of the ministers spoke up, Zhu Si seemed very impatient, and said, "I usually see that you have a lot of discussions about the court affairs. Could it be that you can't even recommend a suitable candidate for this matter? Or, you also Agree with my point of view and think that Gui E is the best candidate?"

Gui E is a fart!
Many ministers scolded in their hearts.

Anyway, the Imperial Academy of Yili is just a cover for the emperor to play tricks. The position you created out of thin air is left to you to arrange for yourself, and you can play slowly.

Zhang Zuo said: "Your Majesty, these matters should be decided by the ministers after returning home and discussing slowly. There is no need to rush for a while."

Zhang Zuo's words can be regarded as giving the officials a buffer.

It seems that the emperor is not too anxious about arranging a new Hanlin scholar. The two Hanlin scholars... If Gui E is promoted, they will be on the same level as Zhu Hao in theory. No matter who the emperor favors, Gui E and Zhu Hao Haojian will form a direct competitive relationship.

"Ah."

Zhu Si nodded and said, "You guys, don't slack off, it's better to make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise, this job may only be done by Bachelor Zhu concurrently. Is this not what you want to see?"

He is the right servant of the Ministry of Rites and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, so Zhu Hao takes care of the affairs of the Hanlin Academy and Zhan Shifu.

But the question is... what arrangements should Jia Yong, a Hanlin scholar who was in charge of the academy, make?
The emperor will not forget him, will he?

Shi Jue and Jia Yong are very close. Seeing that the emperor was about to dissolve the court meeting, he hurried out and reminded, "Your Majesty, what about Xueshi Jia?"

Zhu Sidao: "Didn't you let him enter the cabinet? Enter the cabinet as a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion to replace Tang Yin, and he will let him go from the Hanlin Academy first! That's it!"

When Shi Yan heard this, he completely relaxed.

Jia Yong's entry into the cabinet has always been pending, but at this time it was completely decided, and Zhu Hao, who had the opportunity to enter the cabinet, or Yang Yiqing, who returned to the court, seemed to have no relevant considerations from the emperor, and directly agreed to let him go. Jia Yong enters the cabinet.

For the traditional civil servants, this can be regarded as a gain and a loss.

……

……

Cabinet value.

Fei Hong, Liu Chun, and Shi Pang are waiting for the arrival of the new cabinet scholar Jia Yong.

The decree has been issued, and it is expected that Jia Yong will come soon after he gets the decree. For Jia Yong, the thing he has been looking forward to has finally come to fruition.

The cabinet suddenly became much quieter.

Without Huang Zan and Tang Yin, the entire army of the Yili faction was wiped out, there were two neutrals, and two generals from the Lili faction.

On the face of it, the Guardians have won a big victory.

But Shi Yan knew that the problem was not that simple, because Fei Hong and Liu Chun, who were the top two in the cabinet, belonged to the neutral faction. ", took the initiative to persuade the ministers for the emperor in the Zuoshunmen incident.

With Fei Hong in the position of chief assistant for a day, traditional civil servants will have no day to rise.

Liu Chun sighed: "Based on the current situation, it seems that there is only one Hanlin scholar, Jingdao, left in the Imperial Academy?"

Shi Ping and Fei Hong both looked at the past after hearing the words.

The words are straightforward and simple, but the questions are sharp.

Previously, Jia Yong was the only one who didn't notice anything wrong when he was a Hanlin scholar. After all, Zhang Cong hadn't left for a few days.

Now Zhang Cong and Jia Yong have left the Imperial Academy one after another due to different reasons, leaving Zhu Hao alone as a Hanlin Bachelor, taking the lead alone.

It wasn't Zhu Hao who presided over the affairs of the Hanlin Academy, but also him.

Fei Hong frowned and said, "Didn't you say that Jingdao didn't pay attention to the management of the public house?"

The implication is that if Zhu Hao does not go to the Imperial Academy to take classes, then the position of the Imperial Academy will be open. Who is in charge of the daily operation of the Imperial Academy?There are also edicts, Zhan Shifu affairs, etc. Who will be in charge?
Zhu Hao is still the full-time right servant of the Ministry of Rites...

Now there are more errands for Zhu Hao not to perform his duties.

Liu Chun smiled and said, "You can't stop going, can you? Turn around and persuade him."

The corner of Shi Pang's mouth next to him couldn't help showing a weird smile.

Still going to persuade him?
It sounds like it's normal for an official not to go to his office. Doesn't Zhu Hao know that he is neglecting his official duties?It can be said that you are dereliction of duty.

But now because Zhu Hao is the emperor's confidant and favorite general, and because the imperial court and even the Shoufu University have nothing to do with Zhu Hao, even if Shi Yan has any objections in his heart, he can only let him go first.

Shi Teng himself didn't like to fight too much. At the beginning, he waited until his death in the position of Hanlin Bachelor, thinking that he would just retire like that, but in the end he succeeded in joining the cabinet, which is not surprising.Now let him fight for others, and he has already helped Jia Yong win it, but if he wants to get Zhu Hao, who is trusted by the emperor, to step down, he asks himself that he is not capable.

Even Yang Tinghe, Jiang Mian and others failed to do it, so why let me do it?

Who told you not to discover that Zhu Hao is a double-faced man, maybe even an undercover agent sent by the emperor?
After waiting for a long time, Jia Yong came late, and Zhang Zuo came with Jia Yong, so another party began.

……

……

Liu Chun did what he said.

Before returning home in the afternoon, he went to the Hanlin Academy to inquire, and after confirming that Zhu Hao did not show up at the Hanlin Academy that day, he took a sedan chair to Zhu Hao's mansion with full of urgency, and waited for a while before seeing him. Zhu Hao came back from outside.

"Jingdao, it's not the same now as it used to be. You have become a Hanlin scholar, and you should shoulder the responsibility of serving the country and the people."

Liu Chun sincerely hoped that Zhu Hao would go on the right path, and his persuasion was not as rigid and dogmatic as Sun Jiao's.

Generally speaking, Liu Chun's tone of speech is relatively gentle, while Sun Jiao always relies on the old to sell the old and teach others.

Zhu Haodao: "I didn't win the position of Hanlin Bachelor from His Majesty, but His Majesty gave it to me, and I also recommended Gui E to be a Hanlin Bachelor, and usually take charge of the affairs of the courtyard."

Liu Chun shook his head: "What about the daily affairs of the Imperial Academy, such as imperial edicts? What about Zhan Shifu's affairs?"

Zhu Hao smiled and said, "Isn't there someone else who finished it?"

The implication was that Zhu Hao still didn't want to go.

Liu Chunbai glanced at him and said: "It seems that you don't want to take any responsibility. The problem is that His Majesty insists on letting you go, and you can sternly refuse it? You will be more likely to be criticized if you do this!"

Of course Zhu Hao knew that he would be subject to controversy. He also wanted to say, do I suffer less criticism now?
It has been a long time since others knew that I belonged to the emperor's faction, and no colleagues have visited me for a long time, and I seem to have been alienated by those former friends.

"Old Liu Ge, the position of Gui E's Hanlin Bachelor was not confirmed at the court meeting? Why was it only me?"

Zhu Hao was also very curious.

Since the emperor adopted his opinion, should the two be promoted together, or does the emperor still think that exposing Zhang Cong to the outside world is a necessary means, and guarding against Gui E is also necessary?

Liu Chundao: "Your Majesty did not force you to promote Gui Zishi. He only said that we will discuss it in the future. However, Your Majesty is very persistent about your matter. Your Majesty, it seems that His Majesty has a plan for you to enter the cabinet, and you should be brave enough to undertake it." Take responsibility. I don’t even know what you are doing every day.”

Zhu Hao counted with his fingers: "Building trains, boats, textile machines and looms, cannons, firecrackers, glass, etc., in fact, I am also very busy at ordinary times, and these are brought from Xingwang's mansion. Otherwise, why do you think His Majesty can build trains without using imperial money? Can he also build a large number of seagoing ships?"

Liu Chun frowned endlessly: "But those things, you just need to tell someone to do it, do you have to do it yourself? What can be done by an internal officer, with your talent, why waste your energy on it? You have a bright future , we should help the country and ensure that the Ming Dynasty will last forever."

Zhu Hao almost wanted to say, I am doing what is most beneficial to the country and the country, and I have not failed the expectations of the people.

But you don't think so, and I can't help it.

The philosophy is different.

Liu Chundao: "When you become a Hanlin scholar, it seems that there is not much difference from before, but people in the court will criticize you more and more. I heard that no less than ten memorials to impeach you have been sent to the Secretary of the General Administration today, saying that you Slack in official duties, not fulfilling the responsibilities of a courtier."

Zhu Hao smiled and said, "Very good."

Liu Chun frowned and said, "It seems that your interest in being an official has faded, isn't it?"

Zhu Hao shook his head: "I'm fine with being an official, but I don't want to be an official in the capital. I've been applying to His Majesty to go to other places, especially Jiangsu and Zhejiang, to do some more important things. Unfortunately, His Majesty firmly disagrees. Even this His Majesty did not let me go to Jiangnan to wipe out bandits and Japanese pirates."

"Bandits and pirates?"

Liu Chun looked puzzled.

Apparently, the news that the imperial court sent troops to exterminate pirates and Japanese pirates has not been spread in the imperial court, and even Liu Chun, the second assistant to the cabinet, doesn't know much about it.

Zhu Hao said: "It is to use the newly built large ships to clean up the pirates and Japanese pirates along the coast. If there is any extra power, we will go to Nanyang by the way."

"No!"

Liu Chun directly vetoed this proposal, "It's hard to mobilize many people. Once the army is defeated, there may be many people who will be responsible for it. Your career is on the rise, so don't be reckless."

Zhu Hao shrugged: "The fleet has already been dispatched, it cannot be stopped!"
