Chapter 209 Qianniuwei and Xirou(2/3)

No one dares to tell this.

His Majesty can only recognize this. Everyone present knows that there is no way to stop this matter.

Because from the very beginning of this matter, His Majesty was instigating it, from the earliest Chen Kedao lectures, it has been pushed to this point.

The compilation of the imperial examination syllabus is a policy tied to the Royal Academy. If you want to overturn this policy, you must overturn all the previous ones.

No one can do this, so they can only be silent.

"At a cabinet discussion a few days ago, Xu Guangqi and Xu Ge Lao believed that the formulation of the imperial examination course should be led by the Ministry of Rites, after all, the Ministry of Rites is the decision of this matter."

"Sun Chengzong and his elders believed that they needed to recruit widely and cited more ministers to participate. Today, I called my dear friends here, mainly because I wanted to ask about this matter." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

This is the show!

The faces of the people present became a little serious.

Xu Guangqi's opinion was to ask Shen Tingyun to formulate the imperial examination course. This means that their meaning will be thoroughly implemented and implemented, and the interests of others will definitely be damaged.

Sun Chengzong's idea was to take into account everyone, let's discuss it together, and then discuss it very well.

Sun Chengzong's ideas are naturally more likely to be supported by officials, but the key to the problem now is not what these two people think, but what His Majesty's ideas are.

What does Your Majesty want to do?

This is really critical.

For a moment, the atmosphere seemed a little dull.

But things can't be like this forever, someone spoke.

"Report to Your Majesty, I think Sun Ge Lao's method is better." At this time, he stood up and clearly supported Sun Chengzong.

When everyone saw it, they found that this person was Zhou Jiamo, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

No one expected that Zhou Jiamo, the first person to speak, was the one who spoke, and he also had such a clear support.

Zhou Jiamo's qualifications are very old. He was a Jinshi during the Longqing period and was relatively old. When he arrived at Zhu Youxiao, he could be said to be an old minister of the four dynasties, especially after he had experienced the entire Wanli Dynasty, which was the oldest qualification in the court.

No one expected that Zhou Jiamo and Sun Chengzong would get together.

You should know that Zhou Jiamo is also a famous neutral faction in the court and rarely gets involved in some messy things; he will only come forward to protect him when some people are dealt with.

However, once something particularly involved is involved, Zhou Jiamo will not participate. Especially for people like Gao Panlong, their crimes are very conclusive, so Zhou Jiamo has never expressed any opinions.

But this time it was obviously different. I don’t know why Zhou Jiamo actually chose to support Sun Chengzong and was the first to stand up and speak, so the weight was very heavy.

Sure enough, when Xu Guangqi's face was not very good when he heard Zhou Jiamo say this.

"Then Zhou Aiqing will say something." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile, and there was no sign of unhappiness or other feelings on his face, just like he was talking normally.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhou Jiamo bowed and said, "I think this matter is a big matter after all, and it must be convinced by the public. After all, scholars in the world are watching. If it is decided only by the Ministry of Rites, it may cause dissatisfaction from others and will cause criticism at that time."

"In this way, Your Majesty's good ideas and the good policies of the court will become policies that everyone hates. This is a shameful place. If you can quote widely and widely adopt the opinions of the ministers, you think you can convince the public more and let everyone know that this is a strategy formulated after discussion by the court. It will be easier to promote it in the future, and there will be less resistance below."

"So I think Mr. Sun's idea is better." After Zhou Jiamo said this, he no longer wanted to continue speaking. Instead, he stood aside and waited quietly, with no expression on his face, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

Zhu Youxiao's eyes swept across everyone's faces, and he found that before he knew it, several factions had once again formed in the court.

Perhaps it was human interests, perhaps it was because of ideology, or perhaps it was because of various other reasons. In short, new factions appeared in the court, but I don’t know if this time was the same as the faction led by the Donglin Party last time.

It is allowed to have factions in the court, but it will not work if it develops into party struggles.

Because the issue of faction has existed throughout the dynasties and is not something worth making a fuss. It’s just that faction has formed party struggles during development, which is a more deadly thing.

"What other dear friends have any other ideas?" Zhu Youxiao said with a smile again.

"Your Majesty, I think Mr. Xu has a better idea." There was a second one who spoke, but it was not Sun Chengzong who supported him, but Xu Guangqi.

Zhu Youxiao looked at the person who was talking and found that it was Zhao Nanxing, the Minister of Works.

This matter becomes more interesting.

The one who supported Sun Chengzong was Zhou Jiamo, the Minister of Personnel, and the one who supported Xu Guangqi was Zhao Nanxing, the Minister of Works.

Originally, Zhu Youxiao thought that Zhao Nanxing should be closer to the cabinet chief Han Dong, but he didn't expect that he jumped onto Xu Guangqi's boat, which was interesting. Although he didn't know why, this was a thing worth noting.

Han Du didn't seem to have expected that, and he looked at Zhao Nanxing in disbelief.

In Han Du's heart, even if Zhao Nanxing doesn't defect to him, he probably won't defect to Xu Guangqi. His best choice is actually Sun Chengzong.

But the fact is just the opposite. Zhao Nanxing did not choose Sun Chengzong or himself, but chose Xu Guangqi, the most unlikely one. What is going on here?

Han Du didn't understand something.

Although it was not very long, through this incident, South Korea found that the situation in the North Korea was becoming more and more complicated, and it was not surprising that whoever was involved with him was forming. This was a new court force.

Just like Huang Kezhang before, he has always been a good person, and no one offends him and is impartial. But this time he also emerged, and obviously he also saw the opportunity.

This made Han Du have some strange thoughts in his mind.

"Zhao Aiqing, why not just talk about it?" Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

"When you go back to your Majesty, I just feel that there is no need to make any long-term plans for this matter. As for the criticism, or the subordinates are not satisfied, and the court's work will they be satisfied or not?"

"Besides, if you want to formulate an imperial examination course, someone will definitely be dissatisfied. If he formulates what he is good at, he will be very happy; but if it is something he is not good at and has not learned, he will definitely be dissatisfied. There is no way to make everyone happy in this world. Instead of worrying about this, it is better to think about how to do it more suitable for the Ming Dynasty."

"So I think I should cut the mess quickly and let the Ministry of Rites do it directly, which is convenient and fast. Anyway, the Ministry of Rites is responsible for the imperial examination, so how to do it is the most suitable for them. If some unknown people are selected to come in and let them get involved in writing the imperial examination tutorial, it is easier to get rid of things. So I think what Mr. Xu said makes sense."

This sentence is a bit polite, but Zhao Nanxing doesn't mean to leave any room for nothing.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Nanxing finished speaking, Zhou Jiamo's face became a little ugly.

What does it mean to choose something that is unknown to come in?

Who is called "I don't know what's the matter"?

What he said was still unknown. So Zhou Jiamo wanted to stand up and refute.

But before Zhou Jiamo could take a step forward, another person stood up. This person was Yu Maoheng, the left censor of the Censorate.

Seeing Yu Maoheng stand up, everyone's expressions became serious.

Many people present knew that Yu Maoheng was actually His Majesty’s member, because he had been standing on His Majesty’s side from the beginning. So Yu Maoheng’s speech largely represented His Majesty’s meaning.

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't think so, because he didn't give Yu Maoheng any hints, and he didn't want Yu Maoheng to participate in this matter.

Zhu Youxiao brought Yu Maoheng over, simply to improve his status so that he could attend high-level meetings in the court.

Not everyone can have such qualifications. This not only wins the respect of everyone present, but also shocks the people in the Censorate when they go back.

However, now seeing Yu Maoheng preparing to speak, Zhu Youxiao was quite curious about what he was going to say.

"Report to Your Majesty, I think what Mr. Xu said makes sense. This matter should be done as soon as possible. The longer it takes, the more problems it will be. The affairs of the Ministry of Rites should be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites. There is no need to mobilize the masses."

Judging from the situation on the scene, Shen Tingyun, the Minister of Rites, supported Xu Guangqi. In addition, Zhao Nanxing, the Minister of Works, also expressed his opinion. In addition, Xu Guangqi himself is the Minister of Revenue, and he already occupied three of the six ministries.

In addition, Yu Maoheng, the left censor of the Censorate, means that Xu Guangqi has occupied more than half of the power of the court.

On the other hand, Sun Chengzong only supported him, Zhou Jiamo, the Minister of Personnel, and then there was no more. Huang Kezhang, the Minister of Justice, had not yet expressed his opinion.

Sun Chengzong himself was the Minister of War. Among the six ministries, he occupied two departments, the last one was Huang Kezhang from the Ministry of Justice.

Han Yu had no position, and no one among the six ministers supported him, so he was considered a relatively miserable cabinet chief.

However, Zhu Youxiao felt a little unusual from this.

When did Xu Guangqi become so popular?

When did Xu Guangqi become the one who wants to lead Qunlun?

It’s not that Zhu Youxiao thinks that Xu Guangqi does not have this strength, but that it is an ideological problem. He always feels that someone in the world is holding Xu Guangqi.

Zhu Youxiao's eyes swept across the faces of the people present.

Whether it is the cabinet chief Han Dong, Sun Chengzong, or even Huang Kezhang, they all have this ability. It would be better to say that Zhu Youxiao was made by any of them.

However, this matter needs to be investigated later. Don’t talk about yourself anymore, even Xu Guangqi can only suffer a loss.

Everyone's eyes fell on Huang Kezhang, because he and Han Yu were left at the scene without expressing their opinions.

Now it's Huang Kezhang's turn to make his statement, and his affairs are still serious, because he had put forward Xunzi's statement before.

"When you go back to your Majesty, I think what Mr. Sun and Mr. Xu say inappropriately." Huang Kezhang said slowly.

As soon as this sentence was spoken, everyone present was stunned.

Is Huang Kezhang not preparing for the team? Or do he have any other ideas?

Now, not only no one dares to underestimate a person like Huang Kezhang, but also guard against him anytime and anywhere.

Under such circumstances, every word Huang Kezhang said must be thought seriously and seriously, and there must be no slight negligence.

"What good way do you have for me? You can tell me." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

"I think this matter cannot be handled only by the Ministry of Rites, and at the same time, it cannot be collected from many people by quoting a wide range of people. Because this will not achieve rapid efficiency and will also cause everyone to talk about it."

"So I believe that the court should send an important official to establish a temporary yamen to be responsible for this matter. This yamen can be mainly based on the Ministry of Rites. After all, this matter itself is the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, and it is not surprising that it is mainly based on the Ministry of Rites. At the same time, some people related to the matter can be invited to discuss with each other."

"The most important thing is that you can report things directly to Your Majesty. This temporary yamen does not have to be responsible to any yamen, or even to the cabinet. In this case, it can not only solve both troubles, but also gather the advantages of both aspects. I think this is a best of both worlds." After saying this, Huang Kezhang stopped speaking.

However, the people present looked not very good, because Huang Kezhang directly rejected everyone's ideas.

And this is not the most critical, the most critical thing is to send important officials of the court.
