Chapter 227 The Order of the East Palace Lectures(2/2)
Wang Hao has always been his mentor, and Wang Hao is not a core member of Liu Jian and other factions. When he encounters pressure in the court in the future, he will naturally want to ask Zhang Zhou for help.
Zhang Zhoudao: "I have a bad premonition, and it involves Yang Shi. I'm afraid that something will happen in his family in the past two months, which will delay his official career."
"Um?"
Zhu Youtang looked puzzled.
Dai Yi, who was standing next to him, asked hurriedly: "Mr. Zhang, are you saying that there might be an... accident in the hall where Master Yang is speaking?"
Zhang Zhou sighed: "I don't know the reason behind it, but I guess that Yang Shidao's family members are all in Sichuan and Sichuan, and they can't withstand the bumpy journey. As for whether his parents and relatives are well or whether they are suffering from any disease, I can't say It can be speculated. I can only say that... it may be so."
"this……"
Zhu Youtang originally had no objections to Yang Tinghe.
In other words, Yang Tinghe was not qualified to arouse the emperor's resentment. Yang Tinghe's current status was only a "minor role."
Xiao Jing sighed with emotion: "It's a pity that we can't rescue Marquis Weining like Mr. Zhang did before..."
The speaker has no intention.
Zhu Youtang said: "Go, send someone to Yang Qing's official office in the capital to tell him about this and make him mentally prepared. If possible... give him three months' leave and let him go back and take a look. .”
"Your Majesty, this... I'm afraid it's inappropriate."
Dai Yi almost wanted to persuade him.
Now it's just Zhang Zhou who said that Yang Tinghe's parents may be in danger, and Yang Tinghe himself is still competing for the candidate for Hanlin bachelor's degree. Your Majesty, if you do this, you will not let the ministers of the DPRK think that you are using some unconventional means to oust him. Competitors of candidates you recommend?
Zhu Youtang said: "I know what you mean. I have no selfish motives in this matter. I just want Yang Qing's family to prepare early. Is this wrong? Let him go back to visit relatives and fulfill his filial piety. If they are If you feel that I am selfish, you can wait until he comes back and give him a Hanlin bachelor's degree."
The emperor was also very angry.
Zhang Zhou has said that Yang Tinghe may encounter changes in his parents, and I will sympathize with him and let him go back and take a look.
Whether it's going back to serve your parents, or even just going back to see your parents one last time, it's still a great gift. For Confucian officials, who doesn't care about the name of filial piety and honesty?
Besides, there is no rule that only one Hanlin bachelor can be promoted.
If it doesn't work, I will promote these three candidates to Hanlin bachelor's degrees at once to see who dares to make irresponsible remarks!
…
…
Inside the Hanlin Academy.
Wang Hao is also sorting out some materials from the "Da Ming Huidian". Now that the Hanlin Academy is in charge, the "Xianzong Shilu" has already been compiled. In addition to the main tasks of teaching the prince and making imperial edicts, the main task of compiling the book is This administrative code, which collects the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty, can be said to be the greatest ambition of Emperor Hongzhi in governing the country, compiling books and leaving a name in history.
At this moment, Liu Ji brought a message to Wang Hao.
"... Jizhi, at today's court meeting, the candidates for Hanlin bachelor's degree were discussed, and you were proposed by His Majesty."
As a bachelor, Wang Hao does not need to go to court every day. He usually only needs to go to the regular court meetings or celebrations during festivals.
The court meetings of the Ming Dynasty emphasized the importance of official business. If there is something to do with your yamen, you can go, and if there is no business, you can go. Generally speaking, no matter how low the position of an official is, he has a place. Compared with the six ministers, the minister is basically required to come, and the rest are Check to see if there are any relevant notes from the person responsible for the corresponding matter that day.
Wang Hao said: "I have just been promoted to a bachelor's degree. How can I be qualified to be promoted to a bachelor's degree in the Imperial Academy?"
Liu Ji said with an envious look on his face: "Your Majesty appreciates you, are you not happy? Originally, the people recommended by Mr. Xie Ge were Jiefu and Shuhou. The person from the Ministry of Rites recommended Zhang Yuanzhen from Nanjing. Later I pressed Shu Hou and left three people as candidates. It seems that you have a good chance of being selected. After all, you were appointed by His Majesty."
Although historically Liang Chu was the first to become a Hanlin bachelor, in terms of seniority, Yang Tinghe was actually higher than Liang Chu.
It was just because Yang Tinghe Shouzhi missed the selection of Hanlin bachelors. In terms of the order of entry into the cabinet, Yang Tinghe was earlier than Liang Chu.
Before long, editor Liu Chun came over from outside and informed: "Scholar Wang, the Supervisor of Ceremonies is here. Please come over and have a talk. They are talking about the lecture in the East Palace."
Wang Hao frowned.
Why did you suddenly mention giving lectures?
Could it also be related to the fact that he was recommended by the emperor as a candidate for Hanlin bachelor's degree?
Liu Ji smiled and said: "Go quickly, I guess the matter can't be too small. From now on, you will be in full charge of official affairs in the East Palace, and you won't look for anyone else in the future."
…
…
In the Hanlin Academy, three Hanlins in the new department, namely editor Zhang Zhou, editor Lun Wenxu and Sun Xu, accompanied by eunuch Xiao Jing, the eunuch of the Bureau of Rites, came to the Hanlin Academy to report on their work.
This treatment...
It gives people a headache just looking at it.
No matter who saw this scene, they knew that Xiao Jing's arrival had nothing to do with Lun Wenxu and Sun Xu, it was all about Zhang Zhou's face.
After Xiao Jing met with the people from the Hanlin Academy, he did not even leave Zhang Zhou alone, leaving Wang Hao alone to talk about the matter of entering the East Palace.
To put it more simply, he was representing the emperor to divide the "scope of responsibilities" for Wang Hao.
"...Your Majesty's intention is that from now on, the lecturers in the East Palace will be divided into two classes. The first class will still be led by you. Everything remains unchanged, but on the third, sixth and ninth day of each tenth day, or as otherwise notified
At that time, the second group of people will go and give the lecture..."
Xiao Jing spoke very vaguely.
Wang Hao frowned and said: "There are already divisions in the schedule for the banquet lectures, so why do we need to subdivide the lectures in the East Palace?"
Xiao Jing smiled and said nothing.
"Eunuch Xiao, may I ask how to divide the two groups?" Wang Hao just thought that the emperor wanted to divide the current lecturers in the East Palace into two groups.
Xiao Jing said: "The first class remains the same as before. As you know, there is a new addition, Mr. Zhang, who is the new champion Zhang Zhou. As for the second class, if Mr. Zhang is busy with official duties, it will remain the same."
"What?"
Wang Hao didn't understand.
Are you bringing Zhang Zhou out alone?
Xiao Jing smiled and said: "There is no need to hide anything. His Majesty's intention is to make Mr. Zhang the foreman of the second shift. As for how to proceed, it is up to him to decide."
Now it was Wang Hao's turn to frown.
Zhang Zhou was a lecturer for the East Palace as a Hanlin editor. He originally did some odd things, sorted out teaching plans, or even came out to give a lecture. There was nothing wrong with it.
Zhang Zhou was the number one scholar and a Confucian official who passed the traditional imperial examination, so he was naturally not weak in talent and learning.
But if Zhang Zhou is allowed to lead a group of people alone to give lectures to the prince...
Where will these people in the Hanlin Academy be placed?
"There is no way, Bachelor Wang. This Mr. Zhang is not only knowledgeable about ancient and modern times, but also stays up all night in astronomy and geography. He can also control the weather. If such ability can be granted to the prince... Of course, your majesty can't say that openly.
, just understand it and don’t tell others... If the prince really learns this, wouldn’t it be... amazing?"
Wang Hao took a breath.
To put it bluntly, it’s because Zhang Zhou is so capable that all of us combined are not as good as him, is that what you mean?
"But don't worry. Normally, Mr. Zhang will go with you when he gives a lecture in the East Palace. He will never overwhelm you. When he gives a lecture, he will never let you lose your prestige. They are all gentlemen from the East Palace, no matter who they are.
Just like each other."
