Manchu traitor, how can you let me be the emperor of the ages

Chapter 266 Adding Hanlin title, six days lecturer
The Japanese lecturer is the person who gives lectures to the emperor, and the person who is really close to the emperor.

There are many requirements for such a position, and the rules and regulations are extremely tiring.

"Three, although the imperial court has not yet issued a definite decree, but this official thinks that it is just to wait for the other three Japanese officials to be selected together, and then announced together."

Zheng Xuan said: "But the positions of the three of you have already been fixed in the early court and cannot be changed."

"I think it's better for you to prepare in advance."

Zhuge Liang nodded, while Bao Zheng and Wang Hua were visibly nervous.

"Thank you, Master of Light."

In recent years, although there have been no sutra banquets and daily lectures, Zheng Xuan, as a bachelor in charge of the Imperial Academy, is considered a half-professional, and he is still familiar with these procedures.

What's more, there are still so many old Hanlins watching him at this time, looking at their staring looks, I am afraid that if Zheng Xuan makes a mistake, he will immediately go up and correct him forcibly.

Zheng Xuan cleared his throat and began to give them a lecture: "I know that the three of you are all learned scholars, and you may even have explained the scriptures to the people and scholars before."

"However, speaking to the emperor is different from ordinary people. Articles need to be gentle and moist, so as to have the style of telling the king. The words should be rough and vulgar, and the heart of raising a husband to be close to Confucian officials is not just for beautiful words..."

Zheng Xuan talked about the content and skills of the lecture, all the way to the rules before and during the lecture, Zhuge Liang and the three were all listening attentively.

Unknowingly, many people gathered outside the hall.

These people are not officials, but Shujishi who come to sit in the Hanlin Academy one by one.

They will stay here for three years, during which time they will of course attend lectures in the Hanlin Academy.

It's just that the Hanlin officials who were in charge of giving lectures to them all came here today, and the Shuji scholars came here naturally after they got their freedom.

These people stood around the door and outside the door, looking at Zhuge Liang and the other three who were listening to Zheng Xuan's lecture in the hall with complex eyes of envy and jealousy.

They are both Jinshi in the same subject, and they are already the envy of others.

Just study books honestly and take classes for three years, and you can be promoted to a higher rank, and you can take the vacancy to take up the post after the library is dismissed.

But seeing the treatment of Zhuge Liang and the three of them, the envious eyes of these Shuji people sparkled.

They still have to endure three years of hard work in this Hanlin Academy, studying books in the dark buildings all day long, and bear the eyes of those old Hanlin Academy.

But at this time, Sanding Jia was able to enter the palace, meet with many ministers, and give lectures to His Majesty the Emperor.

This is the Japanese lecturer!Everyone knows that the daily lecturer is the easiest official position to go straight to the sky!
As long as the lectures are good, and he is favored by His Majesty the Emperor and recognized by many adults, it is not a problem to be promoted casually.

If there is a job opening, the bosses will think of you immediately.

When the Daqian Jingyan system prevailed, almost half of the incumbent Zaifu and Shangshu Pushe were from Japanese lecturers.

This is enough to show how popular this position is!
"Although there are six daily lecturers, not all of them went to give lectures to His Majesty together."

In the Zhuangyuan Hall, Zheng Xuan's lectures are still continuing: "The six people are divided into lecturers and daily commentators, and they are all divided into two groups. When the two groups go to give lectures, the other group will take turns."

The living annotators here are not the kind who follow the emperor and record his words and deeds every day, but are only responsible for recording the content of daily lectures and sutra banquets.

The three of Zhuge Liang nodded thoughtfully. It seems that the Japanese lecturer still has time to rest.

Zheng Xuan continued: "The three of you are new to the officialdom, so I'm afraid there are many things you are not familiar with."

"That's why I speculate that the imperial court will let three other Japanese lecturers form a team with you to take you to new positions and familiarize yourself with the rules of the palace..."

As soon as he was halfway through speaking, an old Hanlin official beside him interrupted angrily: "The daily sutra feast has been interrupted for many years. Could it be that those people know the rules of the daily lecture?"

"That's right! All the lecturers are out of my Imperial Academy, how can other yamen be as clear as I am?"

"Who will teach who is not sure..."

The old Hanlin officials echoed one after another, causing Zheng Xuan to look embarrassed: "Communication is just mutual communication..."

He smiled awkwardly at Zhuge Liang and the others, hurriedly brought up this topic, and continued to talk about other points that need attention...

~~
At this time, in the Ziwei Palace, Li Gan also received the list of candidates from Qin Hui and the others after many games and compromises, as well as the resumes of these three people.

I have to say that there is another acquaintance among them, that is Li Gefei, a doctor of the Ministry of Rites.

"I didn't expect him to work in the county?"

Li Gan opened his resume with great interest and found that the ministers really did not cheat.

Li Gefei was also the top two in the palace examination, and was selected as a good scholar.

After the disbandment of the hall, he was promoted to the seventh rank, and then when he was awarded an official, he was assigned a post of county general judge by the official department.

The county general judge is the seventh rank of the local government, and the Shu Jishi is the seventh rank of the official in Beijing. It stands to reason that this distribution should not be made. This is obviously a disadvantage for Li Gefei!
Li Gan rubbed his chin, a look of interest flashed in his eyes.

He did know why, Beijing officials had higher status than local officials, it was just an unspoken rule.

In practice, both the officials and the emperor will silently follow this rule, but such rules are generally not brought to the surface.

Therefore, no matter whether the official department assigns him a seventh-rank local official or a sixth-rank local official, it is a normal phenomenon, and no one can comment.

Think it's unfair?You can be wrong for this official!
but……

Li Gefei was the prime minister's son-in-law at the time, how could such injustice fall on him?

Could it be that the father-in-law deliberately tempered his son-in-law?

Li Gan thought with a bit of mischief, this kind of situation is extremely rare among senior officials in the DPRK and China.

After all, experience and exercise are just the words of the big shots to fool the people below. I have never seen a few people who are willing to let their close juniors go down to the muddy water.

However, combined with Li Gefei's character of being content with the status quo, it doesn't seem impossible.

Thinking of this, Li Gan continued to flip through the resume in his hand.

The latter resume is very normal. After Li Gefei passed the examination of the general judge, he was directly promoted to the sixth grade Guozixuezheng.

And it's still a Beijing official from the sixth rank, which is equivalent to passing through the third rank in a row!

Well, I made up all the previous ones at once!

After passing the examination for the position of Xuezheng, he was promoted to the sixth-rank doctor of Taixue.

At this time, his prime minister, Yue Zhang, had already retired and became an official, and had even turned into a pile of loess.

Later, under the control of Li Gan and Qin Hui, Li Gefei was promoted to the current position of Wai Lang, a member of the Wupin Li Department.

Judging from this resume, he also meets Li Qian's requirements and has experience in serving in local areas.

Li Qian put down his resume and picked up the other two.

These two people are Tongshi Sheren of Zhongshu Province and Langzhong of Hubu.

Looking at their resumes, they all have the experience of working in the local area.

Li Qian nodded slightly, and then looked at Qin Hui who was waiting here.

"Qin Xiang, you all selected well-educated people, now draw up an order for me."

Li Qian looked at Qin Hui with a deep meaning in his eyes, this guy got a lot of money in this selection.

Not only was a person elected in Zhongshu Province, but his relatives were also supported in the position of Japanese lecturer.

Qin Hui raised his head in astonishment. He had thought that things would go smoothly, but he never thought that it would go so smoothly.What does it mean to draw up a purpose on the spot?
Without giving him time to think, the old eunuch quickly brought a pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Qin Hui didn't care about thinking any more, but picked up his pen, ready to listen to His Majesty's will.

"Today there are Wailang Li Gefei, the priest of the Ministry of Rites, Tang Situi, Tongshi Sheren, and Zhang Lucai, a virtuous and virtuous person, who is a doctor of the household department. Let’s go to the sun together to give lectures and serve the sutra feast.”

In the middle of Li Gan's words, Qin Hui's hand that was about to make a move paused for a moment.

But he didn't stop, he just followed Li Gan's words and finished writing.

It wasn't until after he put down his pen that Qin Hui raised his head and took a deep look at His Majesty the Emperor. Now he finally understood why His Majesty wanted to keep him here, and made plans on the spot.

"Your Majesty, there is something I don't understand."

Li Gan also looked at him with great interest: "It's rare that Prime Minister Qin still has something he doesn't understand, but it's okay to say."

Qin Hui took a deep breath, and asked: "Hanlin editing is not an official position of the seventh rank, so why does your majesty increase the size by size?"

"I think it's okay to let these three people enter Japan with their own posts."

Li Gan knew that Qin Hui must have understood his intentions, but since he was pretending to be stupid here, then Li Gan would also play dumb with him.

"Haha, it seems that Prime Minister Qin also has times when he is ignorant."

Li Gan stood up from his seat with a smile, and slowly came to the table: "In this case, I will explain your doubts for you."

"Recently, I checked the classics and found out that the lecturers used by the emperors of the past dynasties all came from the Hanlin Academy, and the Hanlin was used as the official. Now I have to hold a sutra feast, and I have to abide by the ancestral system."

"Adding the official positions of the Hanlin Academy to these three non-Hanlin officials, one is to comply with the law of the ancestors, and the other is to let them change their names to be justifiable as day officials."

Qin Hui took a deep breath, suppressing the evil fire in his heart.

He is a good friend, doesn't he know this?

But the problem is that there are too many elements mentioned by Li Gan, and he couldn't think of any reason to refute for a while.

But the right-hand man is the right-hand man, and he is extremely quick-witted.

"Your Majesty, these adults are expected by everyone. Even if they don't add any titles, other adults will not have any criticism."

Qin Hui was secretly reminding Li Gan not to cause public wrath.

"It's okay."

Li Gan smiled and waved his hands, as if he had a winning ticket in his hands: "I heard that the competition for Japanese lecturers this time is quite fierce. These three Qing families have been selected, and the other losers will inevitably feel a little bit unhappy."

"With the title I gave them, even if these people are not convinced, they won't say anything."

They don't do it, some people want to do it, and if it doesn't work, I will replace it.

Qin Hui was disgusted by Li Gan's shameless face, but he really couldn't do anything about it for a while.

If you go outside to find someone on the condition that the Imperial Academy will be awarded a title, there will really be a lot of officials who will agree.

In the eyes of many people, this is simply an insignificant matter, or even if they see the deep meaning, they don't care.

Because this is nothing compared to their own benefits.

Only people like Qin Hui care about the long-term consequences of this addition.

Even if you don't want to, you can only pinch your nose and admit it at this time: "Your Majesty is far-sighted, I admire you."

Qin Hui bowed his hands to thank En, and left Ziwei Hall with the written edict.

All that is left is to send it to Menxia Province, and then announce it to the court...

Strictly speaking, the position of Japanese lecturer is not a real title, it is similar to the examiner and Zhigongju in the general examination, and it is also a special title.

This title has no rank, only real power.

In the past, only members of the Imperial Academy could obtain this title.

You can go up to the academician of the Hanlin Academy, down to the editors of the Hanlin Academy, the review of the Hanlin Academy, or even the eighth-rank Hanlin classics.

In the past, there were even emperors who appointed Hanlin Daizhao and Hanlin Shishu to serve as daily lecturers. You must know that such officials have no family background restrictions. Row.

But even such an official position can become a daily lecturer.

So it's still the same sentence, only talents are chosen.

Qin Hui sent the edict to Menxia Province. Although the officials responsible for the review were reluctant, they couldn't find any serious problems.

This title is optional, and everyone in the court will acquiesce if it is not added, but if it is added, there is nothing to say.

In the end, the people under the door didn't bother, and passed the edict directly.

Because this edict was written directly in front of Li Gan in Ziwei Palace, after passing the Menxia Province, there is no need to return it to him, and it can be announced directly to the court.

The edict was passed on to the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of Education, and Li Gefei and the others accepted the order in surprise and joy.

After it was passed to the Hanlin Academy, although Zhuge Liang and the others were very happy, the reactions of other Hanlin officials were a little fierce.

First of all, they didn't expect the benefits brought by this addition, but started to complain one after another.

How can outside officials be given the title of the Imperial Academy?How can such a precious place be allowed to be defiled by others...

Zheng Xuan laughed awkwardly at the side, and hurriedly explained: "My lords, with the addition of the title of the Imperial Academy, they are also considered half of my members of the Imperial Academy. Looking at it this way, the quota for lecturers for six days has been reserved. I am Imperial Academy."

The old Hanlin cast a glance at him and muttered, obviously what they said was not good.

In the eyes of these people, even Zheng Xuan, a bachelor in charge of the Academy, can only be regarded as half of the Hanlin Academy.

As for those with additional titles... not even half of them can reach.

"In the past, only people from my Hanlin Academy were given other official titles, but I don't want it to be reversed today..."

Isn't that right, Hanlin's own rank has always been very low, and they are often added with other higher titles to enhance their power, but this is the first time for others to add Hanlin titles.

But hearing what the old Hanlin said, Zheng Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.

He has been in the Imperial Academy for so many years, and the most he heard is this sentence: "I used to be in the Imperial Academy..."

Now that these old men say this again, it means that they have generally accepted it, and there will be no more radical remarks or actions.

"In that case..."

Zheng Xuan turned around, smiled and looked at Zhuge Liang and the others standing aside, although they tried to be calm, they still hid some nervousness: "Hurry up and prepare for the first daily lecture!"

He didn't realize that even he himself started to get nervous.
