Others' implicit request for an official position may be regarded as being beyond their control, but it is natural for Fang Yingwu to do so. In any case, it is impossible not to reward a meritorious official like Fang Yingwu who has worked so hard.
The emperor thought about it for a moment, and then he quickly and neatly issued the decree: "I remember that you were previously Zuo Zhongyun? Now you can be promoted to Zuo Yude and Zhongshu Sheren."
This award seems plain, but it actually contains several layers of meaning. Zuo Zhongyun is the sixth grade, and Zuo Yude is from the fifth grade, rising one level from grade. The grade of Ci ministers is generally not high, and it is important for Qingliu to upgrade one grade.
It's quite valuable, even if you go up one or two levels in the outer court, it won't be as good as Qingliu level one.
Secondly, Zuo Yude was an official of Zhanshi Mansion and nominally the Minister of the East Palace. However, there was currently no prince. The Minister of the East Palace must only have a nominal position. Therefore, the emperor asked Fang Yingwu to serve as a scholar in Zhongshushe.
There are two categories of Zhongshushe people. One type is those who always serve the emperor and serve as advisors. They stand beside the emperor like the eunuchs and eunuchs who serve as ceremonial officials. They hold an extremely important position. They are generally called Zhongshuke Zhongshu.
The other type of Zhongshu Sheren is those who run errands and do odd jobs in the cabinet. They can only be regarded as high-ranking senior officials and cannot be called Qingliu.
The Zhongshu Sheren who was awarded to Fang Yingwu was obviously the first type, and could not be the latter, otherwise he would have been humiliated by the other party Yingwu. But having said that, although the Zhongshusheren was critical, he was only seven.
It was just a high grade, so the emperor gave Fang Yingwu the official title of Zuo Yude and a high grade.
Thirdly, before Fang Yingwu’s father, Fang Qingzhi, was demoted, his official title was Zuo Yude, Zuo Chunfang, Zhan Shifu. Now the Emperor has promoted Fang Yingwu to Zuo Yude. This shows that after Fang Qingzhi returned to the court,
It's definitely not just the official who was reinstated. How can a father and his son share the same official position? He also got a promotion.
Fang Yingwu was not only overjoyed but also overjoyed. An official position like Zhongshusheren in Zhongshu Ke was exactly what he needed. If he wanted to strengthen his influence on the emperor, what position could be more convenient than Zhongshusheren?
During the dynasty, the people in Zhongshushe were only a few steps away from the emperor, closer than the great scholar Hanlin and so on!
The most important thing is that this shows that the emperor still appreciates himself in his heart! Otherwise, even if he is awarded an official, he can be sent far away. Why stay around and act as a minister? It seems that the emperor still appreciates his "uprightness", of course.
The premise is not to be "upright" to the emperor himself.
Ci ministers are different from officials from foreign dynasties. Promotions and promotions are decided by the emperor in one word. Generally, they do not need to go through official bureaucracy and internal and external court recommendations, so their appointments are basically effective.
In this way, he thanked Long in kind. He stood in the crowd of ministers and ministers nearby and started to "prepare advisors" in a decent manner. Some people were unhappy, so I won't name them; there were also some others who were unhappy.
The portrait seems to have found a new core, and I won’t mention names.
The emperor sat in the palace and met with the ministers. Of course, it was not just to summon Fang Yingwu, it was just one of many things that happened today. After the procedure of meeting Fang Yingwu was over, the emperor and his ministers began to discuss other things.
Someone reported: "I heard that Dongchang used the murder case as the pretext to imprison Wanda, Wan Niu'er and others from the Wan family. I believe that this is Wang Zhi's deliberate flattery, and your Majesty cannot be deceived by it."
Although the emperor was inevitably a little happy when he heard that his rival Wanjia was in trouble, he could only listen with an expressionless face for the sake of his gentlemanly demeanor.
Liu Jian, the leader of the succession party who was ranked second and third in the line of succession, stood up and expressed his opinion: "Wang Zhi's move is extremely inappropriate. Outsiders may think that he was ordered by His Majesty. In the end, he is afraid that he will be betrayed by injustice and let the people of the world suffer."
I think His Majesty is narrow-minded and intolerant of others."
The emperor nodded thoughtfully. Fang Yingwu wiped his sweat secretly when he saw this. Fortunately, he sneaked into the Wenhua Hall today. Otherwise, if Eunuch Wang was cheated here, he would have to spend a lot of effort to make amends afterwards.
So Fang Yingwu resolutely performed his duties. He went out and said: "Wang Zhi captured the remnants of the Wan family. This is the duty of a minister and he is acting in accordance with the law. What is wrong? As for how to deal with the Wan family in the end, it is entirely up to him.
In the hands of His Majesty, why should we bother to speak?
Besides, Senior Liu is said to be resourceful, but he is so single-minded in looking at problems? Don’t you understand the principle of once and for all? Isn’t this an opportunity for Your Majesty to show your generosity? If the Wan family really did not violate the national law, Your Majesty can let them go again.
It will also be a kind and kind talk; if the Wan family really violated the national law, they deserved it!"
Hmm... The emperor nodded again, but what Fang Yingwu said was more in line with his own thoughts and more feasible. Others talked about a lot of great principles, but they couldn't give a specific way to do it.
Liu Jian glanced at Fang Yingwu and went back without saying anything. After that, Xu Pu, the head of the ministers, Xu Pu Xu, a scholar, appeared again and told the emperor: "Regarding the compilation of the former emperor's records, I have drawn up a list of compilers.
I hereby request His Majesty’s Holy Judgment.”
True record? When Fang Yingwu heard these two words, he immediately pricked up his ears and concentrated on listening carefully, because true record has extremely important political significance.
As mentioned in the previous article, compiling and revising books in the imperial court was different from that of later generations. They were all major political affairs. Not to mention compiling actual records, which was definitely the most top-notch and high-end job in the imperial court.
The so-called true records do not need to be introduced in detail. Anyone who has a little knowledge will know what it means. Anyway, every emperor has to compile true records for the previous emperor after he ascends the throne. Moreover, there is a characteristic in the Ming Dynasty. It does not emphasize the compilation of history but attaches great importance to true records. The true records of emperors of all dynasties
It has special significance in Ming Dynasty.
To put it more generally, repairing real records is the most gold-plated qualification for Ci Chen Qingliu. A bachelor can join the cabinet after completing real records, and an ordinary editor can become a bachelor by participating in repairing real records... As for officials from other dynasties, it is different.
If you want to get involved in such a high-level job, the compilation of records will basically be monopolized by Hanyuan Ci Chen.
If you look at the resumes of the bachelors of the Ming Dynasty's cabinet, almost all of them who have experienced the transition between the old and the new have not participated in the revision of the records. In this sense, the revision of the records is also a kind of recognition of the candidate qualifications for joining the cabinet.
Fang Yingwu silently calculated in his heart that Emperor Chenghua Zhu Jianshen reigned for twenty-three years, which was relatively long, and the actual record would certainly not be shorter. It would take at least several years to complete.
I am too young, and although my reputation is great, it is not a reputation in terms of knowledge. I am probably not qualified to participate in the compilation of records. However, my father is fully qualified and can even be a little higher than ordinary editors.
If his father, Fang Qingzhi, participated in the compilation of the records and completed it a few years later, he would be safe and sound, and he would be promoted at a high speed. At the very least, he would start as a Liubu Hall official, and it would not be impossible to join the cabinet if his luck goes against his will.
All in all, this opportunity to compile records must not be missed, unless his father gives up his dream of joining the cabinet. Thinking of this, Fang Yingwu raised his head and looked at the list in the emperor's hand. This list was drawn up by Xu Pu.
Will there be father's name in it? (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
