Jinyi champion

Chapter 963 teasing
Hanlin Academy.

Yang Shen went to see the Hanlin scholar Shi Ping that day, and when he came back, he called Yu Chengxun and Ye Guizhang to his bachelor's room, but neither of them understood what he was going to do.

Yang Shendao: "Why is there no news about Jingdao recently?"

Yu Chengxun and Ye Guizhang couldn't help but looked at each other, they both had doubts in their hearts, could they ask us to come here just to ask where Zhu Hao is?

"Yongxiu, why do you want to ask about Jingdao's whereabouts? Don't you know him well? From the bottom of my heart, I don't want to come to the Imperial Academy. You and I can't see him in the Imperial Academy at all."

After all, Yu Chengxun and Yang Shen have a deeper personal relationship, so it's okay to speak in such a teasing tone.

Yang Shen shook his head: "I sent someone to look for him at his house and the places he frequented, and I also left messages, but there was no news."

Ye Guizhang couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, and asked, "Why do you use cultivation to find respect?"

At this time Yang Shencai took out something that looked like an official document and presented it to the two of them: "Recently, there will be major changes in the official positions of the Imperial Academy, and there may be another Hanlin Bachelor... Besides, I will choose from the compilations. Three or four people will come out to serve as attendants and lecturers. The rest of the officials at all levels will also select capable people for promotion."

As soon as these words came out, both Yu Chengxun and Ye Guizhang showed strange expressions on their faces.

Because the Jinshi in the second year of Jiajing did not hold the selection of Shujishi, there are some "green and yellow" in the Hanlin Academy, and there are not many people. If you want to select a few editors at a time to be promoted to study and lecture, it will be a battle. The competition between the serving Hanlin.

"Is the news reliable?"

Yu Chengxun looked at the thing carefully, but it was just a list of serving personnel of the Imperial Academy that Shi Ting gave Yang Shen. It seemed that there was no specific charter at all, and everything was just guesswork, so he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Ye Guizhang asked, "What does this have to do with Jingdao?"

Yu Chengxun couldn't help looking sideways at Ye Guizhang.

Ye Guizhang's words are a little too direct, right?

Even if you think it's unreasonable for Yang Shen to seek Zhu Hao, you can't say that it has nothing to do with Zhu Hao's promotion in the Imperial Academy, right? Isn't Zhu Hao compiled by a sixth-rank historian like you and me?
Yu Chengxun blinked, and said: "I want to use Xiu's meaning, I want Jingdao to go to the new Hanlin scholar to find out the news?"

It meant that Yang Shen wanted Zhu Hao to go to Tang Yin to inquire about the authenticity of this matter, as well as the specific promotion principles.

Yang Shen didn't answer directly. If he admitted it, it would mean that he had been using Zhu Hao before... He and Tang Yin were obviously on the opposite side, and every time he sent Zhu Hao to inquire, what is this not using?
In fact, Yang Shen didn't completely ask Zhu Hao to inquire about the news, after all, he and Zhu Hao still have a "little secret", so he said immediately: "Jing Dao is also a member of my Imperial Academy after all, I want to see if he is aggressive about this .”

Ye Guizhang said bluntly: "In terms of seniority, being respectful is probably not enough for promotion."

Yu Chengxun said with a smile: "Not necessarily, Jing Dao has passed the exam for three years, besides, he now has a gentleman with a bachelor's degree in the Imperial Academy as his backer, who said he must have no chance?"

It was ridicule again, but it was more uncomfortable for Ye Guizhang to hear.

Zhu Hao is obviously indifferent to his career, and he is also an abandoned marginal figure in the court. How come when it comes to promotion, he seems to have more opportunities than anyone else, even Yang Shen wants to help Zhu Hao?

Yu Chengxun immediately asked the doubts in his heart: "Yongxiu, do you want to help Jingdao? If he can be promoted to attend school and attend lectures, maybe he won't think about transferring outside."

Yang Shen looked at the two of them, but didn't answer directly, and said: "The autumn lecture is over, even if you choose to attend the lecture or attend the lecture, it is also a preparation for the next spring lecture. No material change.

"As for Jingdao, I just want to ask him what he means. I don't mean to help or not to help. Don't think too much about it. Go back and make preparations. If there is a real promotion in the future, there must be specific assessment standards, otherwise it will be difficult to accept. Everyone. I have notified you in advance."

……

……

Fengtian Hall, the scene of the court meeting.

Qiao Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, once again resigned on the grounds that he was ill and unable to support government affairs. At this time, it was less than ten days before his second assistant Mao Ji became an official. Zhu Si did not directly allow Qiao Yu to become an official. He ordered the imperial physician to diagnose and treat him.

All the ministers felt that it was only a few days before Qiao Yu became an official.

At the court meeting that day, Qin Jin was elected as Minister of the Household Department, and the post of Minister of the Household Department, which had been suspended for nearly a month, was finally confirmed.

At the end of the court meeting, Zhu Si summoned four cabinet scholars and the Minister of Rites, Xi Shu, in the Qianqing Palace.

Originally, these people thought that the new emperor was going to hold a grand meeting, but after the emperor called them in, he only informed them about the addition of the "Hanlin Bachelor of Rites".

"Your Majesty, isn't there already one? Why do you want to set it up again?"

As the chief assistant, Jiang Mian directly questioned the emperor.

Right now, he has far less right to speak in the cabinet and court than when Yang Tinghe first became an official.

Just talking about the cabinet, Mao Ji's departure and Huang Zan's joining made Jiang Mian almost a loner in the cabinet, and even the central government felt that Jiang Mian's position as chief assistant would not last until the next year.

Zhu Sidao: "Mr. Tang, as my benefactor, has always been easy-going when he was in Xingwangfu, without the slightest desire to fight and enterprising. I made him a Hanlin Bachelor because he had an honorable position before he became an official, not To let him really participate in the discussion of the ceremony... I need a talented person with insight to be promoted to a scholar of the Imperial Academy, so as to promote the development of the discussion of the ceremony."

The emperor actually felt that Tang Yin was incompetent?
Incompetent you still choose him?

Just to give him a pretentious position?

Now that you choose someone who can work, doesn't it mean that we will be like before, worrying every day that this scholar of the Yili Hanlin will come out to make trouble?

"Do you have any good candidates?" Zhu Si asked.

Jiang Mian didn't say anything, and now he's looking for a scholar from the Hanlin Academy of Yili to come out. It's not clear that he is going against the mainstream view of the court?Can the emperor accept the person I recommend?
I still can't come out to find anger for myself.

Fei Hong, the second assistant, walked up and said, "Your Majesty, Li Tingxiang and Liu Long, the Imperial Academy attendants and lecturers, may be suitable for this job."

Now the distribution of official positions in the Imperial Academy is quite strange.

There are some old people, some newcomers, and there are exceptions who are promoted, such as Yang Shen, a bachelor of attendant lecturer.

Now there are three Bachelor Attendants, since the emperor wants to choose a new Hanlin Bachelor, he should be promoted from the existing three Bachelor Attendants... Now Daming doesn't even have a single Bachelor Attendant.

Zhu Si shook his head directly: "No, I don't think it's right, why don't you go back and discuss it carefully, and make recommendations at the meeting tomorrow!"

……

……

After the emperor let out the news, the five people left, and the five people hadn't even formally discussed something serious with the emperor.

After leaving the Qianqing Palace, Xi Shu directly asked, "What does Your Majesty mean?"

The four members of the cabinet all looked at him, as if they were saying, you, Minister of Rituals, are very interesting. You were in charge of presiding over the ceremony for the emperor, and you are not with us. Do you know what the emperor's intentions are?

Liu Chun seemed to be careless, and said with emotion: "I think His Majesty intends to cultivate Zhang Bingyong's people who discuss ceremonies. I heard that His Majesty also summoned several officials from Nanjing to the capital, saying that they were arranged to be used by the Imperial Academy."

As Liu Chun spoke, he looked at Huang Zan.

In the past, there was not a single member of the Yili sect at the top of the court, and there were at most a few neutral factions. Due to the situation, the neutral faction could only follow the orthodox faction.

But things are different now.

Of these five people alone, two were from the Yili faction, Liu Chun and Fei Hong were still neutral in the traditional sense, and the only firm orthodox faction left was Jiang Mian, who had not had much time in the court.

Jiang Mian asked: "Gongxian, do you know the details?"

Huang Zan shook his head: "Your Majesty didn't explain in advance, or he really asked the court to push the court. If it is said that he intends to cultivate Bingyong, I don't think so. Bingyong has not been in the court for a long time. How can he be qualified to be a Hanlin scholar? position?"

Liu Chun smiled and said: "You can't say that. Bohu has only been in the court for two or three years. Now..."

That's what I said, but it seemed that even Jiang Mian felt that Tang Yin's situation was different.

When Yuan Zonggao entered the court, he directly joined the court as an elder, but he died not long after. Tang Yin naturally became the heir to Yuan Zonggao's behest, but before Tang Yin was suppressed by Yang Tinghe, he had no chance to be promoted. Old, everything is negotiable.

Several people continued to move forward.

Fei Hong asked: "Then... besides Bingyong, who is your majesty's favorite candidate for the Imperial Academy?"

This question is quite tricky.

Several people looked at each other, and they seemed to be thinking, besides Zhang Cong, which member of the Yili School would the emperor want to use.

It seems that no one is qualified to go up.

Huang Zan said, "Isn't there Chang Fu?"

It was Zhang Bangqi.

Liu Chun shook his head: "I don't think so. Chang Fu has an easy-going personality. After entering the Imperial Academy, he never fought with others. There have long been rumors that His Majesty wants to transfer him to the sixth department. I think there is someone else."

Liu Chun now thinks very differently from before.

He knew Zhu Hao's position in the new emperor's power. If the emperor wanted to cultivate someone...it must be Zhu Hao's priority.

But he also felt that there were certain problems in promoting Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao is nominally opposed to discussing rituals, and his time in the court is also short. Like Zhang Cong, he will be promoted directly to the Hanlin Bachelor, which is difficult to convince the public.

Yang Shen has been in the court for at least nine years and passed the exam, but strictly speaking Zhu Hao has not passed the exam for three years, so lonely.

If it wasn't Zhang Cong and Zhu Hao, who would the emperor want to promote?
Jiang Mian had something to say, but because Xi Shu from the Yili faction was present, and Xi Shu was not a member of the cabinet, he didn't say anything.

The four members of the cabinet returned to the cabinet to be on duty. Jiang Mian finally couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty may force me to leave the court. I will go to the court tomorrow to ask for my resignation. Please understand."

Fei Hong quickly consoled him: "The matter is not at this point, so there is no need for it!"

Jiang Mian raised his hand to interrupt Fei Hong's words, and said: "Recently, His Majesty has brought up the ceremony several times, all for the purpose of arranging personnel in the court. I have occupied the position of chief assistant for a long time, and it will inevitably be tiresome. I'd better go back to my hometown early to take care of myself." Tiannian, so as not to be teased again."

"This……"

Even Huang Zan of the Yili School felt a little uncomfortable at this moment.

Jiang Mian obviously felt that Zhu Si's purpose was to drive him away, and even regarded it as the emperor's tease, which was really pitiful.
