Jingming

Chapter 77

Chapter 77

The occasion where the emperor really learned knowledge was not actually a banquet, but a daily lecture.

The formal significance of Jingyan is far greater than the significance of learning.

In the Wenhua Palace, a royal case was placed in front of the emperor's throne.

A few steps ahead of the imperial case is the lecture case.

After Zhu Houcong sat down in the Wenhua Hall, the officials of Honglu Temple first put the handouts on the imperial case.

"Let's get started." Zhu Houcong nodded, and the official Mingzan began to inform other people to enter the hall.

The cabinet masters, the six ministers, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the minister of Dali Temple, the envoy of Tongzheng, the minister of Honglu Temple... most of the high-ranking officials of the imperial court are here.

Even Luo An, who is the temporary commander of Jinyiwei, has come here.

At this moment, the official Mingzan announced the process of the banquet in a loud voice, and those who participated had already stood on both sides in front of the imperial case.

The daily commentators Yan Song and Liu Long are ready to take their positions, and Huang Jin, the head of the internal file, doesn't need to remember anything today.

Normally, the emperor at the banquet would just listen quietly and would not get involved in any other political affairs.

If the emperor is not dignified and does not pay attention to manners, the lecturer will immediately stop lecturing and ask solemnly: "Is it disrespectful to be a king?"

Theoretically, the emperor only needs to say one sentence during the whole banquet.

That is, after the sutra feast was over, the emperor said: "Sir, eat wine."

Then there is the feast.

So there is a reason why Houzhao my cousin didn't have a sutra feast.

Jingyan is to use very complicated etiquette, solemn atmosphere, and pilgrimage-like learning content to let the imperial power express its respect for Confucianism and etiquette.

The signal it sends is much more sensitive than whether it is an heir or not. This is related to the consideration of whether scholars in the world will have meat to follow you.

Jingyan handouts are approved by the cabinet.

There are two speakers, Yang Tinghe on the left is in charge of the Four Books, and Shi Ping on the right is in charge of history.

Beside the two of them are Yang Shen and Zhang Bi, the two exhibitors.

Yang Tinghe started first, and Yang Shen would be responsible for unfolding the handouts on the case, and flattening them with a copper ruler for Yang Tinghe's convenience.

After Yang Tinghe finished speaking, he and Yang Shen would return to their original positions, and Shi Ping and Zhang Bi would step forward instead.

After the process notification, Jingyan officially started.

From Zhu Houcong's arrival here, to the subsequent passage to see the emperor, and to the subsequent reading of the scriptures and banquet process, the whole process was very quiet, and no one spoke or made any indecent sounds.

During the long sutra feast, if anyone didn't clean up the stomach in advance to add some atmosphere to the sutra feast, then he would basically bid farewell to the grand future.

The solemnity and sanctity of the sutra feast can be seen at a glance.

"What I'm talking about for His Majesty today is the way of a sage in Chapter 27 of The Doctrine of the Mean."

The first lecturer, Yang Tinghe, stepped forward to start, and Yang Shen had already opened the lecture notes for him.

What he talked about was "the great way of a sage, vast, develops all things, towering above the sky, excellent and great, three hundred etiquette, three thousand majesty, wait for the person to do it."

Starting from one sentence, there are nearly a thousand words in eloquence.

Yang Tinghe has been speaking in loud and standard Mandarin, slow and solemn.

He also watched the emperor's reaction at the same time.

Yang Tinghe was naturally not the only one who observed the emperor with anxiety.

Now Yan Song has complicated feelings for the emperor.

The emperor, who was so aggressive on the issue of the legal system before, is completely a respectful and studious young emperor at the sutra banquet today.

All of these are okay, Yan Song just tangled and roared in his heart: Where is the agreed daily life lecturer?What about my diary?
After yesterday, Yan Song was 100% sure: Your Majesty can win!
The emperor who has the composure and overall view, and knows how to restrain himself after showing his skills, eloquence and courage at the best opportunity of the first court meeting, the future court will only be surrounded by him.

The sutra feast is over, when will the daily lecture begin?
"...His Majesty Fu Wei used the capital of a sage to teach the way of a sage, and he was in the position of practicing the way. He exercised the power of praising and nurturing, restoring the peace of the ancients, and eradicating heresy. The last learning is expected to flourish today. I can't wait for my wish."

After a long time, Yang Tinghe ended his speech here, and returned to the left side of the speech with an awe-inspiring salute in his heart.

"I would like to be taught." That's all Zhu Houcong said.

To restore the peaceful scene in ancient times, and to get rid of Confucianism or the heresy of Neo-Confucianism that is prevalent today.

This is what Yang Tinghe hoped he would do when he talked about this article.

Zhu Houcong was listening, and only listening.

Shi Yan stepped forward, Yang Tinghe calmed down and looked at Zhu Houcong.

Judging from Jingyan's performance today, the emperor... is perfect.

Serious and serious learning attitude!
He didn't do anything wrong!
Until Shi Zong had finished speaking, Zhu Houcong still didn't do anything.

There was no impatience in the middle, nor did I ask anything.

Chunchun is being force-fed seriously.

"Sir, have a drink."

As this sentence was uttered, the banquet began, and the main part of the feast of the eight scriptures ended here.

The emperor had already driven back to the palace, Yang Tinghe and Mao Ji exchanged glances, and exchanged glances with Liang Chu, Jiang Mian and others.

It's so calm that they don't get used to it.

Outside the Wenhua Hall, beside the Zuoshun Gate, other Hanlin scholars and officials felt a little bit disappointed: the emperor did not promote anyone today.

Among the small circle of court officials, Liang Chu smiled kindly: "Your Majesty is very eager to learn, which is a good thing."

Look, one more piece of evidence for a wise reputation.

There was another meaning in the eyes he exchanged with Yang Tinghe and the others: the disaster of Rijingmen seemed as if it had never happened, what kind of concentration?
Yang Tinghe couldn't express the feeling in his heart.

The emperor's observance of the etiquette and law constraints of the Jingyan represented the observance of the etiquette system advocated by the dynasty.

Could it be that, as said at the court meeting over there, he is very clear that he shoulders the important task of maintaining the ritual system and maintaining the prosperity and wealth of everyone in this order, so he is not like Emperor Zhengde?
Of course, even Emperor Zhengde would not express any dissatisfaction at the Jingyan at the beginning, he just targeted certain people afterwards, and then he simply stopped holding the Jingyan.

Yang Ting and the stress response came again.

Afraid that he will cause trouble, but also afraid that he will not cause trouble!
He, Yang Tinghe, had typed up countless manuscripts today, but none of them were used. The emperor just finished the Jingyan course without any surprises.

Is this still the emperor who made a big fallacy about the ritual system that day?

Or was it after the ministers surrendered to the Holy Will yesterday that Qian Ning and Jiang Bin had no family assets?
You are unpredictable.

Zhu Houcong, who returned to the Qianqing Palace, hummed silently in his heart, "I will do my best to perform as I should cooperate with you", while changing clothes.

The bigger the lead, the more ostensible occasions.

Zhu Houcong understood this.

Both Zhou Zhao and Yuan Zonggao had told him what Jingyan represented.

If Zhu Houcong behaved rebelliously at the Sutra Banquet, it would touch the most essential problem of this era: Are you going to cut off the way for those literati who read the Four Books and Five Classics to follow the law and the law?

The era is such an era, and Zhu Houcong really has to rely on these people to do things.

The breaking of the knowledge monopoly and the change of thinking are all based on decades or even centuries.

What's more, it is a good thing to learn more about their way of thinking and academic basis from the sutra feast.

If he wanted to do something at the Sutra Banquet, it would not be now.

I don't know how long Wang Shouren will be in Beijing.

The ministers who participated in the sutra banquet enjoyed the banquet there: according to the rules, this banquet can also be packed and shared with the family.

This is the gift of offering to the "master" by the disciples.

And Zhu Houcong was already looking at yesterday's backlog and today's newly presented memorabilia, seeing Wang Qiongzou asking Sun Jiao to resume, Zhu Houcong showed a strange look on his face.

He turned his head and asked, "Which people have visited Wang Qiong's mansion these days?"

"...Slaves, let's go and ask."

Zhang Zuo, who was asked hastily, was shocked and confessed in a trembling voice.

Zhu Houcong didn't take it seriously: "There are many things in the past few days, and you and Luo An need time to straighten out the factory guards. If you don't know anything, it is right to ask immediately. Check the status of the officials in Beijing, and the key point is to see what the old officials in the hidden mansion have. I went to see Wang Qiong in a few days."

Despite the cooperation of Wei Bin and Zhang Yong, it is not easy for Zhang Zuo and Luo An, the two newcomers, to firmly grasp both inside and outside in a short period of time.

The news from the factory guard needs to be summarized, and the eunuch who is also in charge of the factory guard and the eunuch also needs to work together with Zhang Zuo.

What things the emperor will pay attention to, besides the daily report, Zhang Zuo also needs time to distinguish the key points.

The most important thing is that he needs to have a good brain to remember all other minor things that were not written in the report, in case the emperor asks about it at any time.

Zhang Zuo, who had been beaten before and now he was forgiven, was so excited that he hurriedly saluted and went to work.

After Zhu Houcong waited for him to leave, he asked: "Huang Jin, Qingping, how many people knew about the relationship between the father and Sun Shangshu, especially the matter between me and the daughter of the Sun family?"

 Recommended by a friend for the new book "Gou in the Demon Realm" that will be released tonight: Countless demon clans gathered together, intending to kill the number one demon in the demon world, and return the demon world to a bright future. "I'm just a half-demon. I just want to practice quietly and quietly. Why do you food make things difficult for me, a diner!"

  Wan ordered Daxie's new book, the quality is guaranteed.
