Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1275 High-ranking official and rich salary

  Emperor Hongzhi felt refreshed.

  Sometimes, if you think about it, then, that's all.

  Emperor Hongzhi said: "Since this is the case, there is no need to pass on the decree. Starting tomorrow, Fang Xiaofan will be on duty in the cabinet. Let's do a good job."

  Fang Xiaofan saluted again: "Your Majesty, who is Zhongshushe?"

  Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

  Dare to love this girl, she doesn't even know what Zhongshusheren is, and Fang Jifan obviously hasn't given her popular science.

   This is a bit embarrassing.

  A person who is about to leave the cabinet and participate in government affairs has a blind eye to this basic administrative structure.

  Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath and patiently explained: "Zhongshu Sheren has no rank or grade."

Fang Xiaofan blinked: "Why did I work so hard to get the first prize, and His Majesty said that I was a talent among talents, and when he was employing people, he was thirsty for talents, but gave me an official position without rank or grade, Your Majesty , I think this is very bad. If Your Majesty seeks talents like this, the talents must be too frightened to come out. I heard from my elder brother that... the ancient sage monarchs all valued talents. Zhou Wenwang visited Jiang Taigong, Liu Bei met Zhuge Kongming, how did he get to His Majesty, but he has no rank or rank."

   Good guy...

  Emperor Hongzhi was embarrassed, and it took him a long time before he laughed.

  Liu Jian and others buried their heads, this is a tragedy.

  Fang Jifan immediately said: "Your Majesty, Tongyan Wuji, Tongyan Wuji, we..., no, she is still a child."

  Emperor Hongzhi coughed.

Fang Xiaofan said: "I don't have an official position, how can I walk? This is not childish nonsense. I am a talented person in the mouth of His Majesty. No one has passed me in the math competition. Sometimes they say I am a talented person, and sometimes they say I am a genius. Son, what's going on here? Could it be that just because you are the emperor, you can say nothing and go back on what you say? Brother, don't be sloppy. I think things should be true. If they are not true, there will be no justice. It's messed up."

  Emperor Hongzhi said helplessly: "Okay, okay, okay, Liu Qing's family, what do you think?"

Liu Jian rolled his eyes in his heart, I am a person in his seventies and eighties, how can I think about it, I want to tell this girl about the past and present of Zhongshusheren, I am exhausted, so let me, who is dying, and a Girl doll to scold the street?

  Liu Jian respectfully said: "Your Majesty is wise, there must be heaven and earth in your chest, old minister..."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed, and managed to squeeze out a bit of kindness: "Although Zhongshu Sheren is of no rank or rank, but you are the daughter of the king of Xinjin County. Now you are underage. You should have been canonized when you were an adult, but you Now that you are on duty in the cabinet, I will no longer treat you as a child, and canonize you as the county lord, and as the county lord, you will be on duty in the cabinet."

  Emperor Hongzhi heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, the problem was solved.

  Under the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, the daughter of the emperor is the princess; the daughter of the prince is the princess; This is what Fang Xiaofan deserved, this time, it was simply granted.

  Fang Xiaofan bowed respectfully: "Thank you, sir. I have another question."

  Emperor Hongzhi felt a little sad in his heart.

  What is the cabinet?

  The essence of the cabinet is equivalent to a secretary, answering your own questions at any time, answering the doubts in your heart, and helping you govern the world.

  So, under normal circumstances, when Emperor Hongzhi encountered something, he would say, what does Liu Qing think?

  Then what is Zhongshu Sheren?

  Zhongshusheren is equivalent to the secretary of the cabinet bachelor, that is, the secretary of the secretary, who answers the questions of the cabinet bachelor at any time and assists the cabinet scholar in his work.

   Well, now the secretary's secretary didn't come to answer the question, but raised his hand every day, teacher, hurry up, choose me.

  Emperor Hongzhi patiently said: "The Qing family has nothing to say."

  Fang Xiaofan said: "The county magistrate's university is also the cabinet university's scholar university."

   "This..." Emperor Hongzhi thought deeply, and couldn't help saying: "The county head is the second-rank official, and the cabinet masters are not high in rank, but most of them are also ministers. Therefore, they are also the second-rank official."

  The grade of the Cabinet Grand Scholars is not high. This is the reason why Emperor Taizu Gao was worried about Zaifu. However, in order to solve this problem, later people often added a part-time job to the Cabinet Grand Scholars. This is the same as the governor. In fact, the governor's official position is not high. Therefore, the imperial court often orders him to be the right deputy capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

But the county head is different. During the period of Emperor Gao, only the clan can be canonized. The descendants of Emperor Gao of the great ancestor endured hardships and were given extremely high treatment. , is precisely the second grade.

   After Fang Xiaofan listened, his eyes lit up: "I have one more question..."

   "There is no problem." Emperor Hongzhi couldn't take it anymore, and led the wolf into the house.

   But she is really a real child, she is still a girl, he doesn't have the energy to be Fang Xiaofan's secretary and answer all her questions, but why, he can't fall out with a girl, the dignified son of heaven, will he care about a child?

  Fang Xiaofan said: "The third last question. Don't ask after you finish asking."

  Fang Jifan sighed from the side, he really studies mathematics, he pays attention to people, and the bottom three came out.

  Emperor Hongzhi put on a tiger face: "The last one."

  Fang Xiaofan said seriously: "Then I dare to ask Your Majesty, the county head is the second rank, and the university scholar is also the second rank. In the cabinet, who listens to whom?"

   "Cabinet Grand Bachelor, also served as Grand Master and Grand Tutor, both of which are first-rank titles. Why, do you really think that the cabinet will be handed over to you?"

  Emperor Hongzhi felt a pain in his heart.

   "Oh, let's not ask." Fang Xiaofan nodded, looking unhappy.

   This time, Emperor Hongzhi's hairs stood on end, and his back was chilly.

  No, what is her plan? Emperor Hongzhi said: "You are in the cabinet, and you should assist the cabinet scholars in their work. Do you have any questions?"

  Fang Xiaofan shook his head: "Not anymore."

  Emperor Hongzhi was worried: "I see that you have, so please tell me, I know everything."

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi felt that it would be better to speak clearly, but don't make any troubles at that time. The cabinet is the center, not a place for children's play. Looking at the three cabinet scholars, they are all old, and I am afraid that they will not be able to bear the toss .

  Fang Xiaofan said: "Your Majesty, in this way, does it mean that, in terms of rank, in the cabinet, apart from the three Grand Masters and Grand Tutors, he is the biggest minister?"

  Emperor Hongzhi thought for a while, then sighed: "Yes."

  Fang Xiaofan said: "Then, everyone else must obey the minister."

  Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

  Fang Xiaofan blinked and looked at Emperor Hongzhi.

   "This is in theory." Emperor Hongzhi said with a straight face: "But you are still young, you must not mess around. In the cabinet, there are all your elders. You should obey their words."

Fang Xiaofan began to wonder again: "The last question, Your Majesty, is your statement inconsistent with the law of the ancestors? In the ancestral system, the order of official positions and the establishment of grades are for people to know. What are monarchs and ministers, what are superiors and inferiors, but now your Majesty judges the superiority and inferiority by seniority, whoever has a long beard is the elder. If this is the case, isn't the world upside down and completely messed up? Your Majesty's age, Not as good as Liu Gong, does it mean that His Majesty will listen to Liu Gong in everything in the future? Your Majesty is not as old as...my father, right? In the future, my father will be the master. Well, I think this is wrong, and we should speak uprightly. Your Majesty violated the ancestral system. Doing so will cause chaos. I think it is better to determine the superiority and inferiority according to the size of the official position. If the words are not smooth, nothing will be accomplished. Your Majesty must not be so capricious and willful. In this way, the superiority and inferiority of the upper and lower will be lost. Can the magistrate rule over the chief envoy?"

  Emperor Hongzhi was drinking tea. When he heard this, he spewed out a mouthful of tea, his chest heaved, his face was flushed, and his eyes were as big as copper bells...

   But before he had an attack, Long Yan was furious.

  But there was a hysterical howl from the side: "Your Majesty, calm down, Xiao Fan is still a child."

  Liu Jian and the others trembled when they heard this. In their hearts, they had already begun to re-evaluate the impact of Fang Xiaofan's entry into the cabinet. Is Fang Jifan the greatest danger, or Fang Xiaofan the greatest danger?

  Emperor Hongzhi heaved a long sigh: "I'm tired, please step down."

   "Your Majesty, if you know your mistakes, you can correct them... Fang is..." Fang Xiaofan inherited the integrity of the Fang family.

  Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand, his face numb.

  Don't worry about it, let Liu Qing's family and others... handle it by themselves.

  Liu Qing's family and others are all veterans of several dynasties. They have not seen any big storms and waves, so let them deal with them.

  Emperor Hongzhi said: "Back down."

  Fang Jifan pulled Fang Xiaofan busy and saluted: "I will take my leave."

   Then, he hurriedly dragged Fang Xiaofan out of Fengtian Hall.

  Fang Jifan looked at the sunshine outside, and felt as if he had passed away. It was good to be alive.

  Fang Xiaofan said: "Brother, I have a question."

   "Shut up, if you dare to talk too much, I will punish you without dinner." Fang Jifan didn't care about children or women.

  Fang Xiaofan thought about it, and felt that it was really important to eat, so he immediately had no doubts.

  Liu Jian and others also left the palace.

  Fang Jifan stepped forward excitedly: "I have met Liu Gong, Li Gong, and Xie Gong."

  Liu Jian and others forced a smile: "Ah, good, good, good."

  Fang Xiaofan also saluted.

  Liu Jian and the other three laughed again, in a kind of superficial smile: "Ah, you are also good, and you are also good."

  Liu Jian stroked his beard, looked around, and his eyes were erratic. According to psychology, people who talk like this are all liars: "Xiaofan is young, so he is really a fearsome young generation, a fearful young generation."

  Li Dongyang and Xie Qian also had erratic eyes, and they both laughed: "Yes, the younger generation is awesome, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, we are old, old!"

  ...

  Yesterday, I fell asleep by the computer, speechless.
