Chapter 972 Explaining Equals Covering Up
Regarding Zhu Hao's promotion to the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, Yang Shen went to find Fengxi, Fengxi saw Liu Chun, and Liu Chun went to invite him through Tang Yin, and finally Zhu Hao appeared at Liu Chun's home late that night.

At this time, Fengxi had already left, and Liu Chun prepared a supper for Zhu Hao. In addition to improving his eyesight on business, Liu Chun also explained that he wanted to get more life-saving medicine from Zhu Hao.

"Since you brought the old man back from the gate of hell, my place has become a place frequented by people with chest paralysis, especially those who are old disciples. They always come to ask for medicine for themselves, or for their relatives and friends. To express regret to them, it is really difficult to open my mouth. Especially when I learned that someone among my relatives and friends died of chest paralysis, I felt an indescribable sadness in my heart."

When Liu Chun came up, he told Zhu Hao why he asked for medicine.

It sounds quite touching.

Zhu Hao was almost moved by Liu Chun's generous statement.

But Zhu Hao is still sensible.

Zhu Hao said: "Mr. Liu Ge, I understand what you mean, but I have told you about the difficulties I have long ago. There are various modes of chest pain. It is not a single medicine that can save lives. What are the chances, if you fail to save people and end up harming others, it will be your fault if you don’t do it yourself.”

Zhu Hao probably meant the trolley problem.

Facing a problem that has been difficult to solve in the history of medicine since ancient times, it is certainly a great achievement to occasionally save a person, but the problem is that once you make a move, the person suffering from chest pain will die in the end, and who will bear the fault?

Maybe the patient himself has reached the end of his life, and he could not be saved after taking the medicine, and his family members said that there was something wrong with your medicine that killed him.

The best thing to do then is... just sit back and watch.

Zhu Hao is not without a sense of responsibility. After he cured Liu Chun, he did give medicine to many people, but first he had to make sure that these people would not cause him any follow-up troubles, and he also took medicine for illnesses and the like. The medicine has a certain effect, but if he is required to distribute the medicine without restriction, the moral cost behind it will be too great.

Zhu Hao is now an official instead of opening a medical clinic to save people. There is a certain risk in taking medicine himself, and there is no need for him to bear unnecessary responsibilities.

There is no need to make money through this.

Liu Chun said with a smile: "So I respect you, and don't want to give the old man more medicine to cure diseases and save lives?"

Zhu Hao narrowed his eyes.

He could tell that Liu Chun was using the medical treatment to test his attitude towards the court.

"Mr. Liu Ge, if you have something to say, just say it. I know that Sun Butang told you about me before he left. As for how much he said, I don't know, but he doesn't fully understand some things. It's just from him. Just speculation."

Zhu Hao did not deny that Sun Jiao knew about him, but he explained that Sun Jiao only knew a rough idea.

If you have a bad impression of me because of Sun Jiao's remarks, then I can say that Sun Jiao is slandering me maliciously. Some people say that he is a self-willed and self-willed treacherous minister, can I feel better?
Liu Chun said with a smile: "The old man is looking with his eyes."

Hey.

Are you quite confident?

What secret are you "seeing" me?
Just because I became the right servant of the Ministry of Rites?
Liu Chundao: "Today, Feng Yuan learned from me and asked me about the candidates for the cabinet. At the end, he mentioned that he wanted to know your attitude towards being promoted to the right servant of the Ministry of Rites... so I told him, Now the cabinet has no internal discussions or speculations about who will join the cabinet, I probably know that this matter is more or less related to you..."

Zhu Hao nodded and said, "I can indeed advise His Majesty on who will enter the cabinet."

He does not deny it, but at the same time, he does not exaggerate his influence in the court.

Zhu Hao knew that according to Sun Jiao's statement, Zhu Hao would soon be "nine thousand years old", even to the point where he could deceive the saints, and he alone had the final say in the court.

Now Zhu Hao wants to portray himself in front of Liu Chun as a staff member next to the emperor, an image of a courtier who can keep his duty while making suggestions to the emperor.

Liu Chundao: "Then who does His Majesty prefer to join the cabinet?"

Zhu Hao said flatly: "Let your majesty choose. Of course, neither of them will be in the cabinet. In fact, your majesty prefers Zhenjiang and Yuyao."

"Oh."

Liu Chun nodded thoughtfully.

According to Liu Chun's estimate, Fei Hong should be most worried about Yang Yiqing and Xie Qian.

Zhu Hao asked: "Your Majesty once mentioned that the Chief Assistant Fei Ge is most of the time very assertive in dealing with things and can make decisions arbitrarily, but most of the time he lacks the experience and ability to adapt, and may not be as good as Liu Ge."

"Ok?"

When Liu Chun heard it, what did it mean?
Fei Hong is decisive, but lacks ability?

Does that mean I am capable?
You kid think I don't know, the reason why the emperor accepted my opinion more was not because of my ability, but because you deliberately elevated my position among the five cabinet ministers, and let me come out to resist the spearheads targeted by some civil servants?

Liu Chundao: "Respectfully, this old man is going to ask a question directly. In His Majesty's view, these people in the cabinet are just for transitional use, right? Perhaps in the near future, there will be room for some people to join the cabinet...to join the cabinet The person is neither you nor Bohu, so I don't know who His Majesty prefers?"

Liu Chun actually saw it too.

Although the emperor appointed Fei Hong as the chief assistant, which played a reassuring effect, it seems that neither Fei Hong nor Liu Chun will be in the cabinet for long.

It means that regardless of whether Shi Ping or Fengxi will be added to the cabinet in the future, anyway, the current three cabinet members, plus one of Shi Ping or Fengxi, are just transitional figures, and they may not be used for a year. Withdrew from the cabinet one after another.

It can be said that the Shoufu University Bachelor a year later may not have joined the cabinet yet.

Zhu Hao shook his head firmly: "I don't know."

Liu Chun smiled.

In his opinion, if the emperor didn't have such intentions, then Zhu Hao could deny it. Since Zhu Hao said he didn't know, it was very likely that, as he said, none of these people in the cabinet could get the approval of the emperor.

"Respectful, in fact, with your current position, you can join the cabinet even if you are the right servant of the Ministry of Rites and a bachelor's degree attendant. Since you have also said that you have secretly advised and advised His Majesty, when does His Majesty want you to join the cabinet?"

Liu Chun probably also understood that even if the emperor wanted Yang Yiqing and Xie Qian to return to the court and join the court, it was actually a second transition.

Sooner or later, it will pave the way for people like Zhu Hao, Tang Yin, and Zhang Cong to enter the cabinet.

Some of these people were close ministers who followed the emperor when he was in Xingwangfu, and some contributed a lot in the grand ceremony. The emperor didn't need these cronies, so could he expect outsiders to contribute to his control of the government?

Zhu Hao still shook his head: "So far, I haven't discussed with His Majesty. In fact, His Majesty has not told me about my promotion to the right servant of the Ministry of Rites. I have been in Xishan before. Mr. Liu Ge should know that building trains and railways In name, Mr. Tang is in charge, but secretly I am in charge of it.”

"Oh?"

Liu Chun was quite surprised.

Zhu Hao's promotion to the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, in the eyes of Liu Chun and other relatively neutral people, is a signal of renewal and iteration between the court and China, and a sign of Zhu Hao's coming out of the mountain.

But now Zhu Hao said that he himself was belatedly aware of this matter?

"Mr. Liu Ge, let me just say it directly. The re-discussion of ceremonies that may happen at the end of the year or early next year will become the fuse to spark conflicts in the court. No one can make a conclusion about the outcome, and your majesty Now I am also seeking support from all parties. I have only been in the court for a short time, and I know that I am not qualified enough, no matter whether His Majesty will put me in the position of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites in the end, I will still be there if I decline tomorrow."

Zhu Hao stated his attitude.

It's one thing for the emperor to use me, but it's another thing for me to fight against them. Anyway, with my attitude, I will not take the initiative to challenge the court's seniority system.

Even if I decline a few more times, it will look good to the traditional civil servants. If I directly accept the position of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, others will think that I, Zhu, openly treat the court system as a joke and focus on sharpening Heads go up.

……

……

The next day, go forward early.

Liu Chun was sluggish, and only when Fei Hong came to his side did he lift up his spirits a little.

"Yesterday, I met Jing Dao."

Liu Chun said to Fei Hong.

"Ah."

Fei Hong nodded. He didn't have a clear understanding of Zhu Hao. Whether Zhu Hao was the right servant of the Ministry of Rites had no effect on Fei Hong.

Even Fei Hong didn't need to worry about why the emperor promoted Zhu Hao.

Liu Chundao: "He has a very close relationship with Bohu, and Bohu hopes that he can come forward to help with the matter of discussing the ceremony."

"Ah."

Fei Hong simply nodded to show that he understood.

It is no secret that Zhu Hao is a student of Tang Yin. Since Tang Yin is not willing to contribute to the position of Hanlin Bachelor, finding his own student to be the right servant of the Ministry of Rites can also be regarded as a kind of "protection" of Tang Yin to the students... ...If Tang Yin doesn't take this opportunity to develop his party members and even protect Zhu Hao, a student, Zhu Hao may be released in the near future.

Now that Zhu Hao is serving as the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, he can not only contribute to the emperor, but also balance the entanglement between the two sides of the ceremony. This is a good way for Zhu Hao to stay in the center and become an official in the capital...

Besides, with the qualifications of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, even if Zhu Hao is released to other places in the future, he will not be sent to the provincial chief envoy's office, at least he will be a governor or governor-level official of the frontier.

And it is very likely that Zhu Hao will be sent to Nanjing as a servant, and he will stay for ten or eight years, and then he will be promoted later, and he will become the minister of one of the six departments in Nanjing.

This can be regarded as the "road" paved by Tang Yin for Zhu Hao in advance.

"The next move of Da Yili may be just a year ago."

Liu Chun added another sentence.

Only then did Fei Hong arouse a little interest, and looked sideways at Liu Chun.

Even Fei Hong could tell, Liu Chun told him this, as if he was "protecting" Zhu Hao.

This kind of protection was to prevent people from misunderstood that Zhu Hao belonged to the emperor's party and was explaining the emperor's promotion of Zhu Hao.

But Liu Chun's words were a bit of a cover-up, as if you, Grand Scholar Liu, knew everything in advance, and you and Zhu Hao...were on the same boat.
