Qin Dewei did not give himself a day off the next day and went to work in Zhan Shifu honestly.
First, because he also wanted to know what happened after he separated from his colleagues yesterday. Second, because it was obvious that there was going to be big news, and it was easy to miss key information while staying at home.
But when he walked into Zhan Shifu, Qin Dewei felt that his colleagues were very cold towards him, which was simply inexplicable!
But Qin Dewei didn't care and went to his own Zuotang. While getting familiar with the environment, he asked someone to make tea.
At this time, Zuo Chunfang Zuo Zanshan Luo Hongxian walked in. This man had a small official but a great reputation. He was the number one scholar in the eighth year of Jiajing reign. He abandoned his official position that year and was a well-known upright man.
After the ceremony, Luo Hongxian said bluntly: "We all have high hopes for Scholar Qin. We hope that Scholar Qin can guide your majesty to get close to the prince, so that the king, ministers, father and son can be of one mind. This is a great blessing for the country!"
Yesterday, we entrusted Academician Qin to report to the emperor to ascend to the palace, and then watched Academician Qin go to Xiyuan to meet the emperor. However, Academician Qin never returned, and in the end only the eunuch came out to perfunctorily dismiss the matter.
When Academician Qin was traveling with him to please the Holy Emperor, might he have thought of his colleagues in the East Palace who were waiting outside?"
Qin Dewei: "..."
There are so many flaws that I don’t know where to start. No wonder people like Zhan Shifu are so cold to me today. It turns out there are still so many inner dramas.
They thought that the emperor was playing in Xiyuan yesterday, and Qin Dewei only wanted to curry favor with the emperor, so he forgot about the East Palace matter, and did not take his colleagues into consideration at all, and let them go.
Colleagues worked until dusk. In addition, Qin Dewei had delayed reporting for a month, and the resentment accumulated in everyone's heart exploded.
In this regard, Qin Dewei can only say that you are really not suitable for officialdom... It may hurt you, but what does it have to do with you?
Suddenly, an edict spread throughout the major government offices in the capital. The content was very simple: Zhu Xizhong, the Duke of the State, Cui Yuan, the Marquis of Jingshan, the three great scholars of the cabinet, and the Minister of Rites were sent to the Zhiwuyi Hall. Afterwards, a copy of Zhang Shuzou was sent to the Yinghe Gate of Xiyuan.
.
Most people were confused after seeing the edict. What is this Wuyi Hall? What are the good ministers doing in the Zhiwuyi Hall?
Zhan Shi's Mansion was relatively calm. After all, the main client of Zhan Shi's Mansion was the Crown Prince of the East Palace. The transfer of government operations to Xiyuan had little impact on Zhan Shi's Mansion.
Zhan Shi Lu Shen summoned officials of the sixth rank and above to discuss the most important task at present, which was to compile textbooks for the crown prince for future teaching.
But only Young Master Zhan was not invited to serve Qin Dewei, and no one had any objections to this.
Qin Dewei's arrogance and arrogance hurt everyone too deeply. We are all high-ranking poets and scholar elites. Who can be less proud?
Today's collective cold violence against Qin Dewei is a kind of punishment!
Everyone lives in society, and you, Qin Dewei, are no exception. Let you, Qin Dewei, feel the pain of collective rejection!
If you have the ability, you, Qin Dewei, should give up your popular official position in the East Palace, so you shouldn't do it to this Young Master Zhan! Otherwise, you, Qin Dewei, will be an anomaly in Master Zhan's Mansion!
Qin Dewei still didn't care. He walked across the court with a teapot and swayed towards the door. Everyone sitting in the lobby could see clearly.
At Lu Shen's signal, Xu Jie shouted: "Where is Bachelor Qin going?"
Qin Dewei waved his hand as a greeting and replied: "I just remembered that I am still a Hanlin bachelor. I haven't been to the Hanlin Academy for a long time. I will go and sit there for a few days!"
It's hard for everyone to understand why Qin Dewei is not angry at all? Is he really so generous to Zhan Shifu and not caring about the affairs of the East Palace?
Who could know that in Qin Dewei's eyes, sooner or later, this wave of officials from the East Palace would make a mistake and attack the public.
So instead of worrying about it now, it would be better to wait until they all rush to the street and then come out to clean up the stall. That would be twice the result with half the effort.
At this time, several eunuchs suddenly walked into the Yimen in a hurry. The leading eunuch shouted: "Is Qin Dewei here? Take the order quickly!"
Qin Dewei, who was unprepared, was very surprised. What had happened to him? If there was anything, the emperor didn't mention it yesterday? How could issuing an imperial edict today seem like a sudden attack?
After coming back to his senses, Qin Dewei hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. Thunder, rain and dew are all for your kindness. No matter what your will is, you have to talk about it first.
Not to mention Qin Dewei himself, even the officials of Zhan Shifu who were present had to welcome the imperial edict together and could not pretend not to see it.
The angel announcing the edict looked at a large group of Zhan Shifu officials without showing emotion, and read according to the script: "...call Zhan Shifu, the young master of Zhan Shifu, a bachelor of Zuo Chunfang and a Hanlin bachelor, and Qin Dewei Zhiwen, the admiral of Siyi Palace.
Yuan Pavilion..."
Hearing this, everyone almost lost their etiquette collectively, and at the risk of deceiving the emperor, they all raised their heads and looked at the eunuch who announced the decree in astonishment.
See you soon? Does anyone dare to make false claims? Or are you hallucinating?
Who in the officialdom doesn’t know what Zhiwenyuan Pavilion means? This is the legendary entry into the cabinet. In the physical sense, Wenyuan Pavilion is the cabinet in the official terminology!
All senior cabinet ministers, no matter what their official title is, such as bachelor or minister, must first add "Zhiwenyuan Pavilion". Only with this can they be called into the cabinet!
But Qin Dewei is still a big boy. He is only twenty-one years old, only a fourth-rank man, not even a minister!
Apart from the false transmission of imperial edicts, it is impossible to explain with everyone's knowledge that under the current mature and complete cabinet system, the matter of allowing a twenty-one-year-old fourth-rank minister to join the cabinet!
The eunuch who announced the decree paused for a moment in a playful manner, giving everyone enough time to be shocked.
Even Qin Dewei himself had a blank mind at the moment, with only one sentence in his mind: Emperor Jiajing made an elixir and took the wrong medicine and went crazy?
Do you want it to be so exciting? If you become a pavilion elder at the age of twenty-one, what will your future life be like?
In a trance, I heard the eunuch announcing the decree continue to read: "I will not participate in the maintenance of the machine."
Qin Dewei: "..."
My mood instantly returned from heaven to earth. The ups and downs of life are so exciting.
Speaking of the full official titles of the senior academicians, it usually comes after "Zhiwenyuan Pavilion", and the matching title is "participating maintenance", also called "pre-maintenance".
For example, Gu Dingchen's full official title today is - Shaobao and Crown Prince Taifu, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Bachelor of Wuyingdian, Zhiwen Yuange, involved in machine maintenance.
Even though the words "participate in maintenance" seem to be the least conspicuous, they are placed at the end, but they are the most crucial words, describing the actual power.
A real prime minister does not need to have palace protection, is not a bachelor, does not hold the title of minister, and does not need to have anything important, but he cannot not participate in engine maintenance.
Only with the words "participate in maintenance" can one truly have power, have the right to review internal and external memorials, and can draft sanctions against memorials.
It can be said that if you don’t participate in aircraft maintenance, you are nothing!
However, everyone is familiar with "participating in maintenance", but what is the unheard-of "not participating in maintenance"?
"Zhiwenyuan Pavilion" is followed by an emphasis on "not participating in aircraft maintenance." What is the purpose of such a weird official position description?
I don’t know what others think, but Grand Scholar Qin feels the deep malice coming from the Nine Heavens.
"Zhiwenyuan Pavilion" is just "Zhiwenyuan Pavilion". If you don't want to "participate in maintenance", just omit the blank space. Why bother to deliberately add "not participate in maintenance"!
"Direct Wenyuan Pavilion, do not participate in aircraft maintenance", a good cabinet official position, but it sounds like a cold joke.
The eunuch who announced the decree understood the pain of Grand Scholar Qin, but he still reminded him dutifully: "Qin Dewei still doesn't thank you?"
Zhan Shi, the young master of Zhan Shi's Mansion, a bachelor of Zuo Chunfang and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, went directly to Wenyuan Pavilion and did not provide any advance notice. Qin Dewei, the admiral of Siyi Pavilion, was helpless. Under the complicated eyes of countless people, he accepted the order and thanked him dumbly.
Qin Dewei and the rest of the people in Zhan Shifu all felt that they had become a joke.
