Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

The rank of the servant of the Imperial Academy is not high, only the fifth rank, but he can appear in front of the emperor at any time, and accompany the Long Live Lord to study.This is a hot official position. Generally speaking, the people who can get this position are the emperor's close ministers, and they are very likely to be selected into the cabinet in the future.

For example, Yang Tinghe was a bachelor's attendant to Emperor Hongzhi back then, and taught Zhengde for many years.

The year before last, he was added to the cabinet as the second assistant of the Ming Dynasty.

It can be said that once you take this official position, you will be on Zaifu's helicopter.

When seeing this province, Su Mu's first reaction was surprise, and then he was proud.

He entered the Hanlin Academy for three years, and was promoted from the seventh rank to the sixth rank after he left the hall. Now he has been idle for two years and has become a bachelor of attendant.He was promoted to the fifth rank in just five years. Considering his age, this speed of promotion was astonishing.

Spread the word, and don't envy others.

"Could it be that Zhengde's grudge against me, Su Mu, has been completely eliminated?" Su Mu stroked the light beard on his lips, and quickly dismissed the idea.

Everything is just to facilitate the use of troops against Shanxi.

Moreover, the post of Zuo Shuzi of Zhan Shifu Zuochunfang Zuo Shuzi that he holds on himself is likely to be the empress dowager's intention.

The so-called Zhan Shifu is the institution in charge of the family affairs of the queen and the prince. It was first established in the Hongwu period of Ming Taizu.

In the first month of the first year of Hongwu, Zhongshu and the governor's office discussed, imitating the old system of the Yuan Dynasty to set up Zhongshu orders, and wanted to play for the prince.The emperor said: "If you take the law from the ancients, you must choose the good ones and follow them. The personnel in the Yuan Dynasty did not learn from the ancients, and the officials were not appointed for the virtuous, but they were similar. Not long ago, I should respect my master, give lectures on the scriptures, learn from the past and the present, and understand the opportunities. His Japanese military and state affairs are all aroused, so why should he follow his example as an official of the Eastern Palace?" Zhan Tong was ordered to examine the East Palace officials, and set up a young teacher, Shaofu, Shaobao, Zhan Shi, Lifu envoy, Yude, Zanshan, guests and other officials.

Zhan Shifu directly managed the specific affairs of the East Palace and was also responsible for teaching the prince. Officials had the most direct influence on the prince. Therefore, Ming Taizu carefully chose his person, and often Yixun, an old minister, also took the post.

After the mid-Ming Dynasty, the function of Zhan Shifu was gradually weakened, and it became a transfer rank for officials of the Imperial Academy, and was no longer in charge of specific affairs.The education of the prince is mostly undertaken by the apprentices and bachelors.

However, even so, Zhan Shifu's official position still has strong political significance.As long as you enter Zhan Shifu, it means that you are a member of the crown prince's team, an old man of the next emperor Long Qian, and will be reused in the future.

Especially the position of Zuo Shuzi is even more important. As far as Su Mu knows, Zhang Juzheng, a famous politician and reformer in the Ming Dynasty, once held this important position in Yu Wang's mansion.After King Yu ascended the throne, Zhang Juzheng became a cabinet minister as a matter of course.

If other people became this official, they would have liked him so much that they couldn't hold on to it. Unfortunately, Su Mu could only smile wryly at this moment.

Speaking of the old man of the Emperor Longqian, didn't I, Su Mu, have done it once, why now I am the assistant minister of the East Palace of King Fu?

Isn't this a trick?

"Okay, the imperial decree has been issued, so Xueshi Su will receive the decree!" In the past, people in the world called Su Mu Xueshi Su, but it was just a respectful title, and it is only now that it is worthy of the name.The eunuch who came to proclaim the decree smiled and stuffed the decree into Su Mu's hand: "Your Majesty said, let Xueshi Su wait at the Leopard House in Xiyuan tomorrow. The supervisor together discusses the use of troops against the Tatars."

"Minister, Su Mu, obey the edict." Su Mu solemnly accepted the imperial edict, and asked, "Elder-in-law looks unfamiliar, dare to be honored."

"Don't dare, let my surname be Yuan again, and I'm a servant under godfather Zhang Yonggong." Seeing that Su Mu spoke politely, eunuch Yuan hurriedly cupped his hands to salute, and then said in a voice that could only be heard by two people: "Godfather is called Xiao My fellow scholar said that this imperial decree was intended by the Queen Mother. His Majesty seems to be somewhat dissatisfied with the bachelor. My godfather said that when the bachelor discusses in the leopard room tomorrow, he must be more careful."

Su Mu thought in his heart: Sure enough, but I don't know why the Empress Dowager asked me to be the teacher of King Fu.

He nodded, expressing his understanding.

Zhao Hulu hurried up, and quietly stuffed a stack of money notes into Eunuch Yuan's hand: "The villain will send it to Eunuch."

Only then did Eunuch Yuan leave with a smile on his face.

Taking another look at the imperial decree, Su Mu frowned unconsciously.In the past two years, he kept a low profile and stayed in the Ministry of War as a petty official, although he also interacted with people in the officialdom.But the things in the palace are already darkened.

I thought that Emperor Zhengde had no children, but I didn't think that a year ago, a maid named Tan in the palace gave birth to King Fu. It seems that some changes have taken place in history. Could it be that Zhengde's infertility has been cured?

Well, it must be good, Su Mu continued to stroke the beard on his upper lip and thought: Back then, I suggested to Empress Dowager Zhang and Taikang that if ordinary medicines have no effect on Zhengde's infertility, they might as well let Chongxu try.In modern society, Su Mu is dismissive of the idea of ​​gods and ghosts. After all, he has been taught Marxism-Leninism since elementary school, and his materialist worldview has already taken shape.

But now I have even encountered such a bastard thing as time travel, and I don't believe in materialism.

Perhaps, there is such a thing as fairy art in this world. You don't have to believe it, but you have to be in awe.

Even if Chongxu doesn't have the Immortal Formula, what about Qigong?

You must know that even in the modern scientific society, qigong has been generally recognized by the whole society.

Perhaps Zhengde was cured because of this?

However, in real history, Zhengde was infertile, and there must be something wrong with his body.Even if it is cured this time, the genetic defect still exists, and the quality of the child she wants to give birth to is not high.

I heard people say that King Fu is not smart, weak and sick, and has a cowardly personality, so he is very unhappy with Zhengde.This is also the reason why King Fu was over a year old and only won a prince, but was not named a prince.

Thinking about it, Zhengde's mind is to wait and see.When the prince is reborn in the future, choose the best among the best, and choose a healthy and smart child to be the crown prince.

The problem is, Fu Wang's mother died because of dystocia when giving birth to him.He was raised by his grandmother, the Empress Dowager Zhang, since he was a child, and the relationship between the grandfather and grandson is very good.Seeing what Empress Dowager Zhang meant, she wanted King Fu to be the crown prince, so she pulled me, Su Mu, to be his teacher.Probably it is to add a heavy weight to King Fu being established as the prince in the future, right?

Su Mu hates getting involved in the emperor's housework the most. Besides, his relationship with Emperor Zhengde is also very bad, let alone make him unhappy, but this time he can't avoid it even if he wants to.

Thinking of this, Su Mu had a headache.

There was no other way, since he had received the imperial decree, he had no choice but to report to the Imperial Academy first.

Here are all Su Mu's acquaintances, and they are also from the original unit.

As soon as he arrived at the field and completed the formalities, he was stopped by his colleagues from the Imperial Academy to ask about the use of troops in Shanxi.

Su Mu repeated what he had written in the booklet, but he didn't want to arouse strong opposition from his colleagues.It is said that the civil fortress is ahead, and the country is not rich, so how can we use weapons.The Tatars invaded the army every year, and they would leave after grabbing it, and just ask the soldiers of Datong Town to resist it.

Someone quoted the words of the sage and said a lot of truth.

Su Mu just bowed his head and said nothing, not because he didn't want to debate with his colleagues, it was really unnecessary to win or lose with them.Instead of wasting saliva on the scholars, it is better to accumulate energy, so that we can discuss with the elders tomorrow.

Seeing that Su Mu didn't speak, his colleagues didn't let him go, and continued to chase and beat him fiercely.

Just when Su Mu was a little bit overwhelmed, an accident happened, and one bachelor caused dissatisfaction with the other because he used a pawn improperly.So, the two argued.

In the end, they blushed and scolded each other.

When the battle was raging, the others let Su Mu go and divided into two camps to fight each other.

Su Mu got this opportunity and hurriedly escaped from the Imperial Academy.

I sighed in my heart: Where there are many high-level intellectuals, it is really troublesome. If there is a disagreement, it will be infinitely high, and it will become an ideological dispute.

However, the family is excited about Su Mu's return to politics.

In the evening, a banquet was held at home, and even Wu Er Er and Wu Shiqi came to congratulate Su Mu.

Mr. Wu, like the people in the Imperial Academy, strongly opposed the large-scale use of troops against the Tatars.

It was only then that Su Mu realized the seriousness of the problem. It seemed that the concept of recuperation had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it was really difficult to change the concept of the world.

On the second day, Su Mu woke up very early and rushed to Xiyuan.

After showing his waist card to the guards, Su Mu sighed as he looked at the majestic royal garden.

It has been five years, and I have been unable to freely enter and leave the central decision-making body of the Ming Dynasty for five years. Now, I, Hu Hanshan, have finally returned!

When we arrived at the leopard room, the guards and eunuch Su Mu didn't know any of them.

After revealing their identities, everyone had known Su Mu for a long time, so they hurriedly took him to a monastery, asked Su Mu to sit down, and said that he was a bachelor, please wait for a while, Long Live Lord will meet with him after the morning court The elders come here.

After saying this, everyone in the palace was peeking at the legendary Su Mu.

When others were waiting in the quiet house, they had to stand there in a proper manner, but Su Mu got a chair by accident, and another eunuch brought over a cup of fragrant tea.

Su Mu was originally an old man in the East Palace of Zhengde, and he was used to being in Xiyuan by the way.He crossed his legs and sipped tea leisurely.

The eunuchs and guards who peeked at Su Mu were all in admiration: he is indeed the No.1 scholar in the country. When others are waiting for his driver, they are trembling and dare not sweat, but this Su Xueshi is so comfortable and leisurely.Looking at the civil and military affairs of the court, I am afraid that only the attic has such an aura?

After waiting for nearly a whole morning, the tea was changed three times, and it became tasteless, but no one came back yet.

His stomach was already rumbling with hunger, Su Mu couldn't help frowning.

It seems that there must be a fierce confrontation between the main battle of the morning court and the two factions who advocate recuperation. I just don't know who will fight, who will oppose, and what will be the final result?

It's a pity that Su Mu can't go to court, so he can only worry here.
