Jinyi champion

Chapter 509
Yang Shen took Zhu Hao to the door of the editorial room of the Imperial Academy.

At this time, there was already a person standing there, about thirty years old, not tall but extremely handsome, he came over and saluted Yang Shen and Zhu Hao.

"This is Yu Maogong, the editor of the Hanlin Academy. In the future, if you don't understand something, you can ask him. He has very senior qualifications in the Hanlin Academy." Yang Shen made an introduction.

Zhu Hao couldn't help looking at the past, and it turned out that this person was Yu Chengxun, a Jinshi in the [-]th year of Zhengde.

He has another relationship with Yang Shen, that is Yang Shen's brother-in-law.

They are all from the Yang family.

Yu Chengxun smiled and said to Zhu Hao: "You are the champion of this year? You are really a young hero, and the outside world is telling you that you are knowledgeable. I saw you today, and it is really extraordinary... Now that the talent in the Imperial Academy is withered, I may rely on you to support the appearance in the future gone."

Yang Shen glared at Yu Chengxun, probably meaning to stop talking nonsense.

Yu Chengxun didn't mind, he was cheerful and outgoing, at first glance he looked like a straightforward person with something to say, but the inside story might not be simple, after all, this person could be regarded as a well-known talent in Sichuan, and he had a lot of knowledge with Yang Shen fight.

Zhu Hao asked: "Why do you say that the talents in Hanyuan are withered now? Could it be that there is no one in Hanyuan now?"

"what!?"

Yu Chengxun didn't expect Zhu Hao to get to the bottom of it.

Zhu Hao just wanted to pretend to be a "stupid guy" and ask some questions that ordinary people would never ask.

Yu Chengxun hesitated for a moment before replying: "How should I put it, that is, there are fewer people at the moment, but this time I have made up a lot at once, even if it is to compile classics, there are still a lot of talents."

Zhu Hao smiled and nodded.

In fact, Zhu Hao knew very well why Yu Chengxun felt that the talents of the Imperial Academy were withered. It was because in the [-]th year of Zhengde, among the scholars who stayed in the museum, Shu Fen, the number one scholar, joined the concert in the [-]th year of Zhengde to persuade Zhu Houzhao to give up the idea of ​​the southern tour. Therefore, there are not a few people in the Hanlin Academy who were punished, exiled, and dismissed from office.

In addition, the number one scholar Shu Fen, Tanhua Cui Tong, and the concubine Jiang Hui, Wang Tingchen, Ma Ruji, Cao Jia and Wang Yingzhen gave the most intense performances. They were all exiled to local officials by the court. They haven't come back yet.

It is equivalent to saying that the Imperial Academy has abolished many Hanlins of three generations at once.

But Yu Chengxun didn't participate in that exhortation, and now with the blessing of his father-in-law Yang Tinghe, he is doing well in the Imperial Academy.

Zhu Hao asked: "I don't know who were the good and good people yesterday, why didn't you come over?"

Yu Chengxun was leading the way in front, and said with a smile: "After they enter the museum, they don't work here. There will be special personnel to arrange errands for them. In the future, they will be distributed everywhere in the museum. In terms of future... naturally, there is no such thing as the number one scholar." The future is bright...I heard that you are still from Anluzhou, Huguang? You are really a holy family!"

Yang Shen didn't interrupt Yu Chengxun's words, maybe he has long been used to his brother-in-law being so verbose, he really dares to say anything, those who don't know think you are a fool with no intention, but in fact it's your ghost who compares with others There are many.

Zhu Hao also saw this.

Yu Chengxun is not that kind of single-celled creature. He scrutinizes his own reaction intentionally or unintentionally when he speaks. He is obviously probing with words. He belongs to the type of person who is good at observing words and expressions. Outspokenness belongs to his personality design. Others will fall into his trap if they don’t pay attention. .

……

……

In the editing room.

Only five tables were set up, and no place was reserved for Zhu Hao.

"I'll add a seat for Zhu Zhuangyuan later. It's right by the window. It's a good place to be warm in winter and cool in summer." Yu Chengxun said with a smile, pointing to a corner of the room.

Zhu Hao looked at the place he pointed to. It was located in the most remote corner of the room. It was facing west. It was indeed near the window. There was no problem with lighting. The northwest wind blows in winter, and it is warm in winter and cool in summer. Don't let it be cold in winter and hot in summer.

Yang Shen looked at the empty house and asked, "Where are the others?"

Yu Chengxun said: "It is estimated that they are all waiting for the new sages to enter the hall, and let the sages treat them to dinner... and then I heard that Xueshi Li has been in trouble recently... Sigh, ignore it."

Lee Ting-sang in trouble?

What trouble?
Zhu Hao pondered for a while, is it about making patents?

Or through the banquet?

Or was there a deviation when compiling "Wu Zong Shilu"?

Some things cannot be asked directly.

Now that Li Tingxiang is in charge of the daily affairs of the Imperial Academy, and Yu Chengxun and Yang Shen have a relatively close relationship with Li Tingxiang, they must know more than himself, Zhu Hao can't make sidelines, otherwise it will appear that he cares too much about the affairs of the Imperial Academy.

The current Zhu Hao needs to leave a stereotyped impression that I just came to the Imperial Academy for my seniority, and that I have nothing to do with the affairs of the court.

Yu Chengxun looked at Zhu Hao: "Zhu Zhuangyuan, I wonder if you will come to the banquet today?"

Zhu Hao picked up the book that someone threw on the table and flipped through it. Hearing this, he raised his head and glanced at Yu Chengxun, and found that Yang Shen actually turned his head to the side to care about what book he was reading.

Zhu Hao put the book down casually: "As I am, I am not suitable to attend this kind of banquet... I have just passed the Jinshi examination, so I don't want to cause trouble."

Just like the impression he had left on Yang Shen before, he pretended to be cautious and cautious that "I must be the target of public criticism and need to avoid being the number one in the exam at a young age", and he bluntly stated that he did not want to get involved in the academic and political affairs of the Imperial Academy. Ranking battle.

Yu Chengxun sighed: "You are so mature at such a young age, it's no wonder that the writing is sophisticated and the pen is brilliant. It's really enviable to be the number one scholar like Yongxiu."

Total nonsense.

Zhu Hao gradually responded to Yu Chengxun's nonsense, saying that his compliment was not a compliment, and that he was not friendly, which always gave people a strange feeling.

Yu Chengxun was still chattering: "I don't know what books Zhu Zhuangyuan reads? Besides, can he have books? After entering the Hanyuan, his reputation should be properly publicized. If you write something casually and hand it out, someone in the capital will love it. Maybe there will be books. Merchants come to negotiate and print a few copies for you, it is also a good story in the literary world."

Hearing these words, Zhu Hao finally understood why a literary talent like Yang Shen was so famous.

It's just that there are too many people who want to make them famous, no matter how well the article is written, they will give them a lot of praise when they come up.

But in this era, what most people study is not the science that can make the progress of human society, but the outdated things in the classics and history collections. Zhu Hao, as a Confucian, doesn't like this literary atmosphere very much.

The goals are different.

What these people pursue is fame and wealth, and they only want to win the respect of others, but what Zhu Hao thinks is how to change the times.

The starting points are different, and the research objects are naturally different.

Zhu Hao really wanted to stop studying the Four Books and Five Classics and concentrate on scientific research, but he also knew that he was in the Imperial Academy, so he could not avoid continuing to judge his superiors by his understanding of books and classics, and decide his future as an official...

Forget it.

You study yours, I just ignore it.

Yang Shen walked up to Zhu Hao, and handed a stack of books to Zhu Hao: "These are some words and deeds of the late emperor in court five years ago in Zhengde, if you have time, read more, sort out the important things, and give them to me later. I will help you take a look, the imperial court is about to compile the "Records of Emperor Wu Zong", this part is quite urgent..."

As soon as Zhu Hao arrived, it was as if he had been hand-picked by Yang Shen as his assistant.

But the problem is...

Zhu Hao really wanted to say, we are both editors and writers of the Hanlin History Museum, so why do you direct me to do things?Is it because you entered the Imperial Academy earlier than me?

……

……

Simply nothing.

Zhu Hao also picked up these brochures, found a chair facing the tea table and sat down, put the brochures on the table, and bowed his head to study.

As the time goes.

The number of people in the editorial room gradually increased. The first ones to come were Cai Ang, who was in the ninth year of Zhengde, and Lun Yixun, who was second in the list in the [-]th year of Zhengde.

Both of these two are considered "veteran seniority" in the Imperial Academy, but their official ranks are not high, and they are also editors, but both of them have backgrounds other than their official ranks in history.

Cai Ang and Wu Chengen are both from Huai'an. When Cai Ang returned to his hometown to recuperate in the past few years, he had an encounter with the young Wu Chengen. In history, Wu Chengen wrote poems for him after Cai Ang passed away. The two had a close friendship.

Zhu Hao really wanted to ask, where is your little brother now?Why don't you call the capital and let me do some errands for him and let him hang out with me?

As for Lun Yixun, he was the son of Lun Wenxu, the number one scholar in the twelfth year of Hongzhi...

Father is the champion and son is the second.

The twelfth year of Hongzhi was the year when Tang Yin's imperial examinations fell to the ground, and Lun Wenxu had passed away long ago. Lun Yixun inherited his father's behest and got a job as a writer in the Imperial Academy...

Zhu Hao thought to himself, the Imperial Academy is really a place to raise idlers. After working for ten or eight years, he might be able to get ahead and serve as a daily lecturer, unlike Yang Shen. Regarding Zuo Shunmen's matter, even if his father is not in court, there is no problem in joining the cabinet in the future, after all, all the official career matters have been paved for him in advance.

But thinking about it again, after all, Yang Shen won the first prize in Zhengde six years ago, and in terms of qualifications, he is older than the editors present.

Although he was not in power for a long time in the middle, but people rely on their ability to eat, so there is no need to be sarcastic.

……

……

The follow-up ones were all compiled by Shujishi.

The last person arrived, and everyone present stood up to greet him.

It is Gu Dingchen, who is the lecturer of the Imperial Academy and Zuo Chunfang Zuo Yude of Zhan Shifu, who was born as the No. [-] scholar in the [-]th year of Hongzhi.

Among the two attendants and two attendants, Gu Dingchen is considered an outstanding figure. With his mixed status and reputation in the Imperial Academy, the higher authorities tried their best to promote him. s position.

Usually, those who can join the cabinet in the future are doing well in the Hanlin Academy.

Of course, there are also "level-jumping monsters", such as Zhang Cong, Gui E, and...

Zhu Hao.

"Everyone, I would like to introduce to you two new editors of the Imperial Academy, Yang Weicong and Fei Maozhong..."

Just as they were talking, two people came in outside, they were Yang Weicong and Fei Maozhong, the second and third in the same subject as Zhu Hao.

As a Hanlin editor, the workplace is not in the editing room, but in the editing room next to it.

The Imperial Academy is a place that pays attention to seniority. It is only because Yang Weicong and Fei Maozhong are newcomers to the Imperial Academy that Gu Dingchen will come out to introduce them, while others can only wait for others to get to know them slowly.

Yang Weicong and Fei Maozhong saluted respectfully to those present, and all the editors also paid back the courtesy one by one.

In the Hanlin Academy, there is no fixed number of people for the two positions of editor and editor in the history museum, and it is also the most difficult to get ahead, because once you get through, you will be a big boss like Gu Dingchen who will become an attendant reader and lecturer, and will almost enter the court as a member of the Ministry of Rites The servant even joined the cabinet directly...
