One hundred and sixtieth chapters six competing for the wind
After the court was dispersed, Wei Yishen, the six ministers and ministers, and the nine ministers from the five temples, three supervisors and one station came to Zichen Hall to discuss matters as usual. Everyone looked solemn, thinking about how to persuade the emperor to give up the bronze pot system.
Shi Fangzhen saw their plans and spoke first: "You don't have to say anything about my Tongpu anymore. I also know that this is a double-edged sword. I promise you that Tongpu only collects and finds out the matter of land and land. After the Qing Dynasty in the whole country, I will immediately send an order to revoke Tongpu."<
Everyone was blocked by the emperor, so it was hard to say much. Wei Yishen took out a document from his sleeve and said, "The prince is about to enter the Eastern Palace. Long live to order the old minister to select the bachelor's and direct scholars of Chongwenguan. I have already prepared some lists, please let Long live to read them."<
Obviously, the list drawn by Wei Yishen is not suitable for the emperor's taste. After reading it, Shi Fangzhen put the documents on the table and said, "These people who were designed by Wei Xiang are all mature and polite people, obviously they have taken some thought. It is enough to read these people's moral articles, and it is enough to choose the best part. If all four bachelors and eight straight bachelors choose such people, it will be repeated."
"Long live the show."<
"The prince is young, and I intend to select some young and capable people to assist him. These people must be young, have good writing, and can also work hard. For example, Wei Youcheng, I think it's very good."
Wei Yishen could not help but smile and said with a smile: "Long live, you will be praised, Youcheng still needs to be tempered, but there is a little old minister that can guarantee that our Wei family's loyalty to Long live and the crown prince can be seen."
No wonder Wei Yi was very happy. If his grandson Wei Youcheng becomes a direct scholar, he will have a teacher-student friendship with the prince. In addition, his grandson will marry Princess Anshou next year. The prince and his sister have a deep relationship. With these two relationships, the Wei family can be said to be powerful and can be guaranteed to be undefeated for at least fifty years. He ranks third and fourth among the aristocratic families. As for Youcheng, he is still young and has a great possibility of becoming the prime minister in the future. The Wei family, with the ancestors and grandchildren, are all in the ages.
The other people smiled and said in their mouths, and muttered to themselves, your parents' families are obviously not rich and do not flow from outsiders' fields, and they are pretending to be public and private.
To everyone's surprise, Shi Fangzhen looked at Yu Zhijie and smiled and said, "Jiang Anyi is also very good, a master and a disciple, Yu Aiqing has made contributions in educating people."<
Yu Zhijie felt ashamed that most of this contribution was from Fan Yanzhong and Zechang Academy. Speaking of which, this cheap disciple helped him a lot. Yu Zhijie said humbly: "An Yi acts impulsively, has poor thoughts, and is busy with official duties and does not discipline him enough."<
"Shangshu Yu should take good care of this 'erlang' so that he can cause trouble everywhere and mess with the flowers." Wang Kefu sneered sarcastically.
Ding Dawei, the Minister of War, fined Liao Jianhui for half a year and had no good feelings for Jiang Anyi. He interrupted and said, "Jiang Anyi is frivolous. I heard that he is quite famous in brothels. It is said that the erotic poem he wrote was 1 taels a word, which is really a disgrace to his courtesy. Recently, I heard that he took a concubine, and his concubine was obtained during the Qing Dynasty in Renzhou."
This black lawsuit was both harsh and ruthless. If it weren't for the "five hundred taels of silver" incident, Shi Fangzhen had some understanding of Dong'er and Tong'er's affairs, Jiang Anyi's image in the emperor's heart would have been greatly reduced.
Shi Fangzhen waved his hand and signaled that Yu Zhijie didn't need to explain, saying, "The reason why I am optimistic about Jiang Anyi is that he is dedicated to the country and does not consider things like you. He weighs the pros and cons and puts his own interests before the country. I take his heart. As for other trivial matters, I still have this little bit of ambition."
Ding Dawei was so angry that he dared not say anything. Wang Kefu did not give up and continued: "Long live, the prince is the foundation of the country. I think that those who have lost their virtues should not be allowed to serve as a direct scholar."<
Looking at Wang Kefu's fair and thin face, Shi Fang's true energy was a little unstoppable. Not long ago, Shi Fangzhen arranged Wang Zhizhi to the Ministry of Personnel to serve as the head of Si Xun and gave the empress face. As a result, Long Guard reported that Wang Zhizhi spent 2,000 taels of silver to wrap up the Chunyi Tower and celebrated with his friends all night.
"Wang Kefu, when it comes to virtue, no one can match the prince, and take the Chunyi Tower to celebrate, it's such a big deal. Liu Weiguo celebrates his birthday, you don't have less than a thousand taels. What did Jiang Anyi give? It's just a congratulatory message written by himself. Compared with which of his virtues is lost? Pan Qing, this time he has drawn people to various states for investigation, it's better not to have people like Wang Zhizhi."
Wang Kefu was not possessed, and he lay down on the ground and only knew how to kowtow. He was disgusted by the emperor. His life was over.
Shi Fangzhen shouted disgustedly: "For the sake of the queen, I don't plan to deal with you. I won't have to go to court in the past six months. I will read more books of sages at home and tell your wife not to run into the palace all the time."<
Wang Kefu left in a mess with his red forehead. Shi Fangzhen said in a heavy tone: "The world has been peaceful for a long time. Some people who have made contributions to the country have lie on the merit book of their ancestors to eat and drink, and are not enterprising. The playboys are born, and see what Wang Zhizhi has become."<
The atmosphere in the hall became a little awkward. Half of the people present came from a family of officials, such as Prime Minister Wei Yishen and Minister of Works Lu Jialin from a noble family. The Minister of Revenue Yu Zhijie, Minister of Justice Wu Huaren, and Minister of War Ding Dawei came from a poor family. The emperor's feelings made the court officials feel a little uncomfortable.
Guo Congshi rolled his eyes and smiled and said, "Long live, I don't agree with your words. If you want to say that the greatest wealthy family in the world is the royal family. If you don't say, you are wise and wise, you are smart and martial. The prince has been smart and studious since he was a child, and he is both civil and military. Long live and choose a virtuous person to assist him. The prince will surely continue the great throne in the future. My great Zheng country will be passed down forever for generations."<
Shi Fang was very happy after saying something, and the ministers also secretly relaxed and cheered up. The reputation of "Guo Xiaohu" is really worthy.
Lu Jialin interrogated: "What Guo Shangshu said is reasonable, and it goes without saying that Prime Minister Wei's grandson, I also know that Zhu Yifeng, the grandson of Zhu Taiwei, was young and promising, and the four sons of Han Hou, were all heroes among the people, and the talents among the children of aristocratic families were more than one..."<
Good guy, Lu Jialin had a full incense stick. Nearly a hundred people who had named him, most of them were children of officials. Shi Fangzhen smiled and said, "Lu Qing, I think you are going to change your position with Pan Qing."
The Minister of Personnel Pan Linfeng laughed and said, "Mr. Lu is very familiar with his juniors in the aristocratic family. Mr. Pan is indeed inferior to Mr. Pan, but as Mr. Secretary of Personnel, he sees talents from all over the world. If he is limited to one corner, I will blame me for dereliction of duty. Since Mr. Lu has started, I will recommend some talents from the court to Mr. Lu..."<
The butt determines the head. Pan Linfeng was born in Zhangyi Academy and was considered a school school. Most of the officials he recommended were Zhangyi Academy, Zechang Academy and Imperial College. He said a lot of names, which made people drowsy. Even Shi Fangzhen was a little confused and didn't pay attention to what he said.
As a result, the hall was like porridge was opened. With your words or my words, everyone recommended their talents to Long Live. Even Yu Zhijie was not immune to the common people, and he pushed Zhang Yucheng out by the way.
It was almost noon, and Wei Yishen was old and had a little energy. He sat on a stool and shook his body.
Shi Fangzhen caught a glimpse, coughed and interrupted everyone, picked up the document and said, "Let's do this, the bachelor of Chongwenguan is mainly recommended by Wei Xiang, the right chief of the Political Affairs Hall, Mao Huacheng, the chief chief of the Censor Wei Huachao, the young minister of Guanglu Temple, Chen Yinguang, and the young secretary Duan Cizong."<
Every time the emperor said a person's name, everyone thought in his mind that Mao Huacheng was an old man from the Political Affairs Hall, who was rigorous in his work and was upright; Wei Huaichao probably got appreciated and squeezed into the list of the court meeting today, Chen Yinguang was on a mission to Beimo to fulfill his mission. As for Duan Cizong, he was originally just a doctor in the Ministry of Justice, and was inconspicuous among the court officials. The emperor chose him as the deputy chief examiner of the imperial examination, and then moved to the Political Affairs Hall. He was promoted to three levels in two years. At this moment, he was from the fourth-rank secretary and junior supervisor. It seemed that this person was a figure in the emperor's bag and his future was unlimited.
After designating a bachelor's degree in Chongwenguan, Shi Fangzhen threw the document back to the table and said, "I have said so many talents just now, and it is difficult for me to choose. You can fill in the name and resume of the person you recommend to the Ministry of Personnel for a file. Ten days later, I will personally take the exam in Xuanzheng Hall to select the direct bachelor's degree in Chongwenguan for the prince. Let's discuss it today, let's break up."<
The news that the direct scholar of Chongwenguan was quickly spread. This palace examination was the Qingyun rank that he had advanced to the list, and its function was no less than that of the Golden List. All the officials who were qualified to participate were moved by the news. Even some servants and doctors squeezed into the list. The six ministers and ministers were busy in front of the door, and there were endless visitors.
Long live to select talents to go to the twenty-seven states to investigate the land and a group of people secretly monitored the land. The last pilot Qing war envoys were all promoted to the level, which made many low-level officials jealous. They could not squeeze into the circle of direct scholars of Chongwenguan. The Qing war envoys and the supervisor envoys may still have hope. Rats have rats, snakes have snake paths. If the entire Yongchang Emperor capital is compared to a huge spider web, then spiders of all sizes are motivated by the words "fame and fortune".
Another major news was ignored intentionally or unintentionally by officials of all sizes, that is, restarting the Tongpu. It seems that no matter how good the system is, it cannot stop everyone from being excited about getting promoted and making money.
Prime Minister's Mansion, East Academy. Wei Yishen, who had been tired for a day, leaned on the cold bed. Wei Youcheng carefully pinched his grandfather's feet. After a while, the snoring sounded. After waiting for a while, Wei Youcheng quietly stood up, gently covered the Jindan next to him on his grandfather, and tiptoed to leave.
"Youcheng, wait." The old man felt Qian, and Wei Yishen woke up when Jin Dan fell on him.
Wei Youcheng helped his grandfather sit up, Wei Yishen patted his grandson on the shoulder with kindness and said with a smile: "Grandpa is old, and the Wei family is going to see you this year."
"Grandpa, you are still young, and your grandson still wants to raise your great-grandson." Wei Youcheng suppressed his sadness and pretended to be happy.
"Haha, you and An Shou will get married next year, but they are anxious." Wei Yishen smiled and took the tea handed over by his grandson, and sighed with satisfaction: "Don't worry, grandpa will not close his eyes until he sees your child born. From today on, I will be the direct bachelor of Chongwenguan. It seems that the Wei family's favor is not reduced, and it is not in vain that grandpa will stand behind Longai in the Qing Dynasty for the Tianmu."
"Youcheng, with your intelligence, and the relationship between Anshou and the prince, it should be able to ensure that my Wei family is prosperous. But you should pay attention to Jiang Anyi. This son is not inferior to you in the heart of the emperor. This person is from a poor family. He will be regarded as a representative of a poor family regardless of whether he is willing or not. If you are from a noble family, you will definitely become the spokesperson of a noble family in the future. You two are born enemies. The emperor must weigh the divisions and do not want to see you two be friends. Therefore, when you encounter political disagreements with him in the future, even if the emperor supports him, you must speak out loud, because the more you are, the more you are valued."
Wei Xiang taught his grandson in the Prime Minister's Office, but Jiang Anyi leisurely painted his eyebrows for Dong'er. The little member of the Ministry of Rites did not expect that he would be so valued by the prime minister of the dynasty that he wanted to teach his grandson's foundation.
