Jinyi champion

Chapter 548

Yang Tinghe was naturally very unwilling.

The new emperor was elected by him, so everything should be done according to his logic. Although he didn't intend to be a minister of power, the current situation pushed him to his current position, and the whole court respected him. Let a clan son with no background make trouble in the court?

"Mr. Yang Ge, we have already negotiated, can you take a look?"

Li Tingxiang, a lecturer at the Imperial Academy, brought a drafted memorial to Yang Tinghe, which was the result of the discussion.

Yang Tinghe just took a rough look and nodded.

The discussion has come to an end, and Yang Tinghe waved his hand over this memorandum, and let the people in the Ministry of Rites take it away, meaning don't expect me to agree to the joint name of all the people present, I will not bear this kind of "infamy", you can handle it yourself.

The meeting is over.

Yang Tinghe walked to the cabinet's office, and Mao Cheng, Minister of Rites, followed.

"Your Majesty's attitude is firm this time. I'm afraid that there are some experts behind the scenes. The methods used are beyond anyone's imagination. You should be careful."

Mao Cheng proposed an idea.

It is impossible for the emperor to become so resolute all of a sudden, there must be someone instigating behind him.

Yang Tinghe said: "What do you think?"

Mao Cheng said: "From the time when the concubine's younger brother returned to the capital, to when he asked the court to discuss matters, it may have been planned by someone...The Jiang family's words were probably taught to him by someone, and His Majesty used his words to exert pressure with filial piety. All ministers, Jiefu, don't you think His Majesty's actions are too deliberate?"

Of course Yang Tinghe could see it.

But he was embarrassed to say.

After all, it was Yang Tinghe's consent to let Jiang take the turn to convey the meaning of Princess Jiang in the court. Now that I know that this matter was carefully calculated, don't I want to lose face?

What is the significance of Ni Maocheng being Zhuge Liang after the incident?
"Who else is around Your Majesty?" What Yang Tinghe meant, you can't just say that someone designed it, you have to say who gave the emperor advice.

Mao Cheng sighed: "That's why people don't understand... Which minister dares to use the king's act of Zen to coerce the minister to agree to welcome His Majesty's biological mother into the palace? I am afraid that such things are not done by ordinary civil servants, or..."

Mao Cheng didn't finish his sentence, he just wanted to remind Yang Tinghe - look around the emperor, who might use such an unreasonable method?
Is that person's name ready to come out?
Yang Tinghe said: "You mean Tang Yin?"

Mao Cheng shook his head: "I can't be sure at the moment, but I heard that recently he took care of the Huangzhuang field as an old man in the palace, and solved all the things that should be done before autumn. This person's ability should not be underestimated... I have never had any official career experience, but I am afraid that I am very capable when I first became an official."

Yang Tinghe's complexion was dark. He had long hated Tang Yin, and even wanted to get rid of him before he could be quick.

But now Tang Yin has made no mistakes. It is rare to see a person as the head of the household department, but there are not a few people who have such experience since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. It cannot be said that the emperor's appointment of Tang Yin is cronyism. Have you used Yang Weicong?But Yang Weicong's actions were still denied by Yang Tinghe himself.

It was also with his acquiescence that Tang Yin took the position smoothly.

"Then find people to get in touch with more, or to persuade, or to encourage and teach. Since he does not understand common sense, then teach him until he follows common sense... If you want to be an official in the court for a long time, you can't just rely on some cunning and cunning. If he understands this and wants to make a difference in the future, he will definitely follow the advice!"

Yang Tinghe gave Mao Cheng a task.

Find someone to "beat" Tang Yin.

Tang Yin now seems to be favored by the new emperor, has the opportunity to enter the court, and even hides behind the scenes to make trouble.

But after all, you will be in the circle of civil servants in the future. If you want to become famous, leave your name in history, or make a difference in the officialdom, you must do it according to the ideas of Confucian officials, otherwise I will try to suppress you. Drive you out of the capital, and make you never come back.

……

……

In any case, Zhu Si has made great progress in the debate on the Great Rites.

The next day.

Mao Cheng, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, proposed that King Xingxian should be called "Emperor Xingxian", but the emperor should call it "Huangshu Kao", Princess Jiang as "Queen Xingxian", and his grandmother Xianzong noble concubine Shao as "Taiwan Emperor". Empress Dowager".

There is no way for Zhu Si from his parents to win the throne, but there is a way to win the name of empress dowager for his grandmother.

After all, since ancient times, after becoming an emperor, they would posthumously present their mother and concubine as the empress dowager, and seek to be buried with the emperor when the emperor had a queen. Now it is just a grandson to win the name of empress dowager for the grandmother. As the concubine of Emperor Zong, taking the concubine as the queen mother did not violate the etiquette.

Because Concubine Jiang has never been a queen, even if her son is the emperor, her husband is not the emperor. Enter the palace as the empress dowager, the emperor's birth mother.

The controversy over the Great Rites has come to an end here.

Wen Chen experienced violent ups and downs in just three months, and everyone was devastated.

At this time, many people were thinking in their hearts, since the emperor won the opportunity to serve his mother in the palace, shouldn't he stop making trouble?

That should be the end of the matter!
In the court hall, Zhu Si's face was full of gratitude, and he choked up and said: "My dear family, I didn't expect that you would make changes for me, and understand my desire to support my biological mother. I thank you here."

The ministers thought to themselves, as long as you don't bother, it is the greatest thanks to us.

Immediately, Zhu Sibian changed the subject: "Now that the late king is the late emperor, shouldn't we build a temple for him near the Taimiao in the capital for my daily sacrifices?"

The minister present: "..."

Didn't you agree to give your father a posthumous "Emperor" and your mother a "Queen Dowager", and the matter is over?

Why do you still want to build a temple for your father?

Mao Cheng stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's inappropriate."

Zhu Siqi said: "Why is it inappropriate? I didn't request to send the late emperor's spiritual seat to the Taimiao, nor did I stand side by side with the great emperors. Could it be that you can't satisfy this request? If I want to sacrifice to the late emperor in the future, will I still accept it?" Want to go back to Anlu to sacrifice?"

Mao Cheng's head got bigger when he heard that.

Sure enough, you can't back down!

The enemy advances and we retreat, let this go on, I'm afraid there will be a cliff behind.

Mao Cheng could only look at Yang Tinghe with pleading eyes, as if he was saying, you were the one who insisted on the great ceremony at the beginning, and you were the one who took the lead in making compromises. Now that the emperor has a problem again, do you want to solve it too?
Don't let us people be cannon fodder!
Even if we have [-] reluctances in our hearts, it is not convincing to say it out, and you, Yang Tinghe, are the one who holds the right to speak in the court.

Yang Tinghe came out with a dark face and said: "Your Majesty, let's discuss this matter later."

Even Yang Tinghe was annoyed.

Letting you take a step, I originally wanted to take a step back, so that everything will be safe, but who knows that you are not over yet?
Zhu Si showed the demeanor of a filial son again: "I just want to have a place to talk to the first emperor during the Spring and Autumn Festival. Why can't you fulfill me? I..."

Hearing this, the ministers present said to themselves, you don't want to say again, if you don't build a temple for Lao Tzu's father, Lao Tzu will give up his pick and quit, right?

But Zhu Si just sighed with emotion, but did not say any more radical words: "You are all sons of men. You should understand my thoughts. Who doesn't have a dignified hall to support? Can't folks set up shrines to respect their biological parents? ?Okay, let’s do this first. After you return home, you have a good discussion, and we’ll talk about it later.”

……

……

It seemed that the emperor had temporarily died down, but the ministers present deeply realized that the emperor did not intend to let it go, and it is estimated that a bunch of moths will come out later, and these ministers present will still be devastated.

After coming out of Fengtian Hall, Mao Cheng hurriedly caught up with Yang Tinghe and said, "Your Majesty's request to build a temple should be strictly rejected."

Yang Tinghe was very annoyed, why didn't you say it just now?

What's the use of telling me this now?

Jiang Mian said from the side: "Since you agree to let your Majesty establish Xingxian King as Xingxian Emperor, there is legal support for the establishment of a temple for the late emperor. Is this more serious than the posthumous gift of the late king?"

It means that we were the ones who compromised first. Since we all agreed to give King Xingxian the posthumous title of Emperor Xingxian, even if the word "Huang" was not added, legally speaking, the new emperor won.

Why don't you agree to build a temple in the capital for a vassal who is posthumously emperor?
The emperor also said that Emperor Xingxian does not have the blessing of the throne so far, so he will not force him to enter the Taimiao, so he just worships it separately. Isn't this the emperor's concession?

You let that little emperor continue to argue, insisting on giving his father the posthumous title of "emperor" and listing it in the Taimiao, so where is Zhu Youzhu's spirit tablet?

Have never been an emperor, after Zhu Houzhao?
But Zhu Youtang was always Wu Zong's uncle, and he died earlier than Wu Zong.

What Jiang Mian wanted to explain was that since he had taken a step back, he should stop entangled in such trivial matters. It would be better to fulfill the little emperor and let him build a temple for his father. Just quarrel over other things.

Mao Cheng said: "But until now, His Majesty has not issued an official edict, and His Majesty Daxing Xiaozong is the emperor."

He originally thought that Yang Tinghe would come up with a plan, such as talking to the emperor to let him stop being persistent, or that everyone take a step back, explain their demands clearly, and stop arguing in the future, etc.

Unexpectedly, Yang Tinghe also seemed to see that the emperor wanted to suppress the civil servants with the matter of great ceremonies. This wins people's hearts, and at the same time prepares for the suppression of dissidents in the future.

Since it was clear that the little emperor would definitely not let it go, any compromise now would be futile.

"Let's take a step by step!"

Yang Tinghe didn't answer the question directly, and went straight to the cabinet to check the room.

Mao Cheng stood where he was, looking at Yang Tinghe who was gradually going away, feeling very entangled in his heart.

Mao Cheng thought to himself: "Could it be that this Yang Zhongtang regretted yesterday's decision, but now he wants to blame us for compromising? It's getting harder and harder to be an official!"
