Chapter two hundred and sixty-two time difference
While Ye Xingyuan was busy planning for his future, his enemies were also preparing for it.●⌒, Yuwen Jing visited the five great masters without stopping, conveyed their respective meanings, and finally reached a consensus.
Of course, these five top civil officials cannot sit down and discuss how to deal with a new Jinshi. At this time, lubricants like Yuwen Jing will be very important. Without his tireless connection, this joint operation might not have been so smooth.
"Then the student will leave." Yu Wenjing respectfully said goodbye to Yan Bingzhang. After reporting to the chief minister in the end, Ye Xingyuan's departure from Beijing was a foregone conclusion.
Ye Xingyuan must not be allowed to enter the Hanlin area, nor must he let him go further. This is the bottom line that Yuwen Jing gave him. In these short ten days, he ran around and released huge energy, and even several great scholars were surprised.
Ouyang Pu joked with him: "If my nephew cares about his career so much, sooner or later, he will be among us, so why bother to hold on to his white body?"
Yu Wenjing smiled bitterly. He knew that he had done too hard this time and did not agree with his usual behavior. But he also knew that because Ye Xingyuan gave him a sense of threat, he did not dare to relax at all.
After coming out of the Yan Shoufu's mansion, Yu Wenjing breathed a sigh of relief and dragged his tired body home. He felt dizzy in his mind and misty in front of him. Only then did he realize how much energy he had consumed during this period of time.
The peach blossoms on the street are blooming brightly, and the spring scenery is boundless, but he has no mood of spring at all. He just kept muttering to himself: "Five Grand Secretarys are connected, in such a situation, how can you turn the tables on Ye Xingyuan?"
No matter how you look at it, their side is like a huge wheel that wants to crush an ant. Compared with the giants united by the five Grand Secretarys, Ye Xingyuan is like an ant.
During the imperial examination, Ye Xingyuan could turn the tide with his intelligence and intelligence, but in reality, how could he change this dead end?
It was said that this was foolproof, but Yu Wenjing was always heavy in his heart, and he always felt that there was something he hadn't calculated. I was afraid that Ye Xingyuan would have some strange tricks. However, his worry was finally let go when he heard that Ye Xingyuan began to visit the three main testimonials one by one.
I thought Ye Xingyuan would have some help when he sat firmly on Diaoyutai. Until today, I realized that he was still a young man after all. At this time, he wanted to get a relationship and ask someone to help him. How could he have time? It was just a humiliation.
Yuwen Jingyuan was in front of the door of Shen Xiao, a Grand Secretary of the Dongge, and saw Ye Xingyuan's lonely back. He couldn't help but feel that he was too cruel to this young man. However, thinking of Ye Xingyuan's threat to the sage culture and education, he finally hardened his heart.
Ye Xingyuan met the three teachers one by one, but unexpectedly they were all turned away. Shoufu Yan asked him to wait in the concierge until the evening, but he didn't give any instructions, so he had to leave in a bad mood.
Xi Mingsheng was quite proud of his face and only refused to be busy with business. Although he had not received him, he asked his children and nephews to entertain him. Shen Xiao strictly stated that he would not see him. The new top scorer was treated like this. It was probably the first time he had encountered him for the first time.
The most hateful thing is that while Shen Xiao refused to receive Ye Xingyuan, he chanted Chen Jian to pay his respects, but was invited in.
Chen Jian failed during the examination, and Qionglin Yan lost his ugly face again, but he was still arrogant. Seeing Ye Xingyuan waiting at the door, he deliberately passed by Ye Xingyuan, and sneered: "Did Ye Zhuangyuan not be able to enter the door?"
Ye Xingyuan glanced at him and knew that this person was coming to provoke and find fault again. He said indifferently: "I have the sincerity to pay my respects to the teacher. If the old master is not free, it is normal to not see him. But he does not forget to pay his respects, so what's the point of not forgetting his wishes?"
Chen Jian sneered: "If the Master of the Pavilion is busy, how could he meet me and not see you? It is obvious that you have any inappropriate behavior. Others don't know about it, but the Grand Secretary of the dynasty can see it clearly. Therefore, although you are the top scholar, you are not willing to go on blind dates. You can be careful! Be careful!"
Ye Xingyuan did not argue, but only bowed respectfully to the gate of Chen Xiao’s mansion, and said sadly and angrily: "Do your actions below. You have no shame in your original intention and have no tricks. Even though you have been lucky enough to win the top scorer in the current subject, you have no intention of being arrogant and lazy. I hope the teacher can tell you clearly, so don’t be fooled by villains!"
He turned around and left, regardless of Chen Jian's ridicule behind him. Pedestrians on the street pointed and were talking.
Someone was surprised and asked: "What did Mr. Ye do? Heard that the three great scholars did not see him. Could it be that the top scholar is really a loss of virtue?"
Someone immediately refuted, "After Mr. Ye became the top scholar, he was not arrogant or impatient, and he was still studying in the inn. How could he hear any inappropriate actions? If he had made any mistakes before, how could the three great scholars be named the top scholar?"
A well-informed man lowered his voice and said, "You don't know that Mr. Ye is not only the top scholar, but also has a title. This has caused some unhappiness to the elders. How could anyone have the title of Hanlin in the world? Therefore, he was unwilling to be appointed as the editor of Hanlin Academy.
This is a critical moment, and I will be appointed as an official tomorrow. Even to avoid suspicion, several senior officials will not be able to see him."
As soon as this said, everyone was shocked, and some people hesitated: "The top scholar is Wenquxing, who came down to earth. How could he not enter the Hanlin and not receive the Hanlin Qingqi empowerment? This is the only way to become a prime minister in the future. Can't he let him go?"
Someone sneered: "There is one of the top scholars in a few years. Where are they all become prime ministers? I think this young master Ye is not pure in his mind, and he has also become a lord, and he has to take the imperial examination. If he is an ordinary Jinshi, he will be eliminated and he will be the top scholar. Isn't this a shameless scholar in the court?"
Someone was Ye Xingyuan's supporter and said angrily: "The country has auspiciousness and is dedicated to the court. Mr. Ye is a righteous man and can hold the sky with only hands. Could it be that he has rejected his talent and knowledge just because he has obtained a title? If the cabinet masters really suppress him from entering the Hanlin area and the saints are above, they will not sit idly!"
Half of them gloat about the misfortune, and half of them were indignant, waiting to see the results of tomorrow's official appointment. The craze caused by the new Jinshi was far from being compared with this year in previous years.
Yuwen Jing walked beside the road, listening to people's discussions and sighing. He had long expected that Ye Xingyuan would win the top scorer and suppress him, so that the resistance would be greater, but he did not expect that there would be so many people talking to Ye Xingyuan.
He sighed to Chen Zhi: "Ye Xingyuan's literary talent is heartbreaking, and many people in the capital are confused by him. If he stayed in the ban for a long time, he would probably be deeply rooted. Brother foolishly had to do this bad strategy and expel the wise, and he was really guilty."
Chen Zhi comforted him: "Ye Xingyuan was young and frivolous at this time, and there were always some. After this setback, he would read the justice of the saints and make greater achievements in the future. This is Brother Yuwen's kindness."
Yu Wenjing sighed, "I can only hope this is the case."
The sky gradually became darker, and this was the last day of the holiday before the new Jinshi was awarded an official position. No matter what means Ye Xingyuan had, he should not have time to use it. What official should the top scholar be awarded? The cabinet has already planned to submit it to the emperor and Emperor Longping has not refuted it. This matter has become a foregone conclusion.
Yuwen Jing repeatedly calculated that he felt that there was no possibility of any change, so he felt relieved to fall asleep, hoping for tomorrow as he coughed all night.
On a starry night, Emperor Longping rarely sat in the Sili Prison and looked through the memorial. At this time, the one who accompanies him by his side was not his usual companion, but his eunuch Wang Ren, the eunuch of the Sili Prison.
Even if you have the status of Eunuch An in charge of the Sili District, you cannot be absent from the position of Eunuch An. With Emperor Longping's negligent attitude, he would not have come here on weekdays. If it weren't for Wang Ren's sudden report that Ye Xingyuan had urgently submitted an emergency letter, he would never have worked overtime after dinner.
However, Ye Xingyuan's book did not disappoint him. After reading this memorial, Emperor Longping was proud of his eyes. "This little monkey didn't expect to be so willing to do so. In this way, he would have defeated those elders!"
Wang Ren lowered his eyebrows and eyes, but there was a faint smile on his lips. He whispered: "This is a great blessing for Your Majesty. Such a talent came from heaven and is used by Your Majesty."
Emperor Longping laughed, put down the memorial, turned around and asked, "Did he send this letter directly through you? Is this incompatibility?"
Wang Ren shook his head and said, "Ye Xingyuan is cautious and sensible in his actions. How could he lose his word? This letter was sent to the cabinet and the Lijian Prison before sunset. Only the cabinet masters should not see it in time."
Ye Xingyuan wrote to the letters in a regular way, and no one could find a place to talk to him. As for the old masters who did not see it, they could only blame him for the busy official duties of the cabinet and the no-brainer. This is no wonder.
Ye Xingyuan chose the right time. His Jinshi's letter was not a national emergency and military information. It would take a few days for the elders of the cabinet to see it. As for the secret letters and letters to let the emperor have a sneak peek after he arrived at the Silijian, he said that at most he borrowed the envoy who should have belonged to him in advance.
Emperor Longping was even more happy and said: "This kid is too arrogant. It seems that I have to cooperate with him in a big show, but it is a bit uninteresting."
Wang Ren pursed his lips and smiled, "I heard that he had copied dozens of copies and was preparing to announce the capital city and post it to Chaoyang Gate and Xuande Gate everywhere. By tomorrow, this letter will surely be known to everyone."
Emperor Longping exclaimed, "It turns out that he is the top scholar. Fortunately, he has such a mind! The five old men have suffered this time! Ye Xingyuan is really cruel, but in this case, it will be inconvenient to ask him to help me in recent years."
Wang Ren advised: "Ye Xingyuan is the talent of the prime minister. His status has not been revealed in recent years and he is young. Your Majesty has no major issues to him. It is better to wait a few more years and wait for him to be full and he will definitely be able to serve His Majesty better."
Emperor Longping nodded and sighed, "Then wait a few years."
