The emperor is ruthless, and the powerful ministers are even more ruthless.
When Yang Shen came to the Hanlin Academy and conveyed Yang Tinghe's intention, Zhu Hao did not appear surprised.
After all, Zhu Si's willingness to hand over the management rights of Huangzhuang and Huangdian in court was also authorized by Zhu Hao. Zhu Hao did not insist on whether he should stay in the Hanlin Academy.
"Jingdao, I know you must be unwilling to accept it, but the situation is like this. The year before last, Dafu took up this position, and it can be said that he came back in vain. Now you are the only one who can successfully complete the transition. After you complete the task, you will
You will be transferred to a more important job, and if you want to return to the Hanlin Academy, it will be up to you."
Yang Shen is just painting a cake for Zhu Hao.
Yang Tinghe meant that after Zhu Hao completed the transition, he would transfer Zhu Hao to the local Chief Envoy Department as a foreign official; but now Yang Shen said that Zhu Hao still had a chance to return to the Hanlin Academy.
Zhu Hao said: "It doesn't matter whether I come back or not. I am too busy and want to go out and find something to do."
Zhu Hao's free and easy attitude made Yang Shen even more apologetic. Previously, he had said in front of others that he envied Zhu Hao's cheerfulness, and also expressed his intention to advance and retreat together with Zhu Hao. However, as soon as he changed his face, he dismissed Zhu Hao from the Hanlin Academy.
As the head of the Household Department, I always felt that I had taken advantage of Zhu Hao's trust in him.
But now Yang Shen also wants to understand that he doesn't have much say in front of his father and can only obey his father's arrangements.
Just don't be the next one to be kicked out of the Hanlin Academy.
…
…
Zhu Hao wanted to be transferred out of the Hanlin Academy, but there was no sign of it in the court.
It was just that Yang Tinghe had said hello to Yang Shen, and later Yang Tinghe would talk to someone from the Ministry of Civil Affairs about the matter. However, Sun Jiao was well-informed and probably learned from the Ministry of Civil Affairs that Yang Tinghe was going to transfer Zhu Hao to the Ministry of Revenue, where he was in charge.
Sun Jiao felt very unhappy.
However, this time his reaction was not as big as the last time he learned that Zhu Hao was going to be transferred from outside.
At that time, Sun Jiao did not know what role Zhu Hao played beside the emperor. He firmly believed that Zhu Hao would be able to better cultivate his character and cultivate his character by staying in the Hanlin Academy, and his future career would be smoother.
After more than a year, Sun Jiao figured out that no matter where Zhu Hao was, this little fox was full of bad ideas. Maybe he was planning this behind his back!
It seems that Zhao Huang's memorial was gratuitous, but in fact it seemed like he was being taken advantage of, just like his grandson Jiao was so carefully guarded before but was still taken advantage of by Zhu Hao.
Sun Jiao called Zhu Hao to his residence, and then Weng's son-in-law went to the study.
"...I learned from the Ministry of Personnel that a head of the household department was going to be added to take care of the official land. I heard that someone who was familiar with Prince Xing's palace was going to be appointed. I thought of you first and asked.
It turns out that Yang Jiefu took great pains to reduce the financial power in His Majesty's hands."
After Sun Jiao sat down with Zhu Hao, he told Zhu Hao what he knew.
Zhu Hao asked: "Mr. Sun won't speak for me this time?"
"What can I say for you? Tell others that you aspire to be a prime minister and a minister, not a foreign minister? Exactly! In the past, I might have told you that you could study in the Hanlin Academy for a few more years, but now it seems... that's not necessary.
.Besides, if I go out to speak for you now, who will listen?"
Sun Jiao looked self-deprecating.
It was more because after he established his own business, he showed signs of rivalry with Yang Tinghe, which violated his original intention of returning to the court to serve as an official.
Sun Jiao was a little unwilling and walked to the front desk, always riding a tiger with difficulty.
Sun Jiao said: "But I think there is nothing wrong with you coming to the household department. I will be your boss from now on. If you have anything, remember to report it to me."
Zhu Hao smiled and said, "Isn't this bad?"
"Why? You don't want to hide all the things in the inner palace? You have to be worthy of His Majesty, but also worthy of my appreciation. Logically speaking, you, the head of the Household Department, don't have to sit in the Household Department Yamen, everything will be done as you please.
You can act according to your own will more freely than you are now in the Hanlin Academy."
Zhu Hao is the head of the Household Department here. Before the decision has been made, Sun Jiao has already started planning the layout for Zhu Hao.
Zhu Hao felt that Old Man Sun obviously had "bad intentions".
You, old man Sun, want to set up your own business, and even want to recruit me
Your subordinate? He says he is my boss, but you also know very well that my role in the court is equivalent to a hidden role, similar to the combination of the chief assistant of the cabinet, the ceremonial supervisor, and the eunuch, who can make decisions on behalf of the emperor. You actually want me to
Do I report everything to you?
If you don’t know, I really think you, Old Man Sun, are planning to replace Yang Tinghe in running the government.
…
…
After Yang Shen greeted Zhu Hao and told him that he was going to be transferred to the household department to be the head of the household department, there was no new news for five or six days.
Everyone probably knows that Huangzhuang and Huangdian will be handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs, which involves too many handover matters. This matter has to be carried out step by step. To rashly propose that one person in charge of the Household Department should manage everything again is like talking to the emperor.
When playing opposite roles, one must act cautiously.
After things are settled, move Zhu Hao out, then the emperor's rebellious psychology will probably not be so great.
The emperor has so many things to do, does he really care about the management of the imperial palace and the imperial store?
Maybe when the emperor decided to hand it over, he was filled with some anger of betrayal. After a few days, when the emperor's anger subsided, he might just forget about it.
After the Ministry of Revenue informed that the handover had begun, Yang Tinghe personally went to the Ministry of Personnel and asked Qiao Yu, the Minister of Personnel, to implement the matter as soon as possible.
Qiao Yu was slightly embarrassed: "Jiefu, I have some bad news to tell you. Your Majesty has previously made a list of officials to be transferred from outside. Among them are the Hanyuan officials, including Zhu Jingdao who is still in the previous department.
I'm afraid that before I can arrange for him to be the head of the Household Department, I have to pass His Majesty's test first."
Yang Tinghe frowned: "Your Majesty will personally inquire about the personnel arrangements of the Hanlin Academy?"
Qiao Yu shook his head: "Your Majesty's move is obviously related to the previous cancellation of the selection, or it is a continuation, and your Majesty may take action to clean up Hanyuan."
During the imperial examinations and palace examinations in the second year of Jiajing, the emperor seemed not to have much concern about the results. He even came out to support Yang Tinghe when there were rumors. However, after the palace examinations, he took decisive action. He first canceled the shujishi examination and then launched an attack on the Hanlin Academy.
The purpose of the purge was probably to control the noble Xinke Jinshi, Shujishi, Hanlin and others who had nothing to do and went to jointly submit speeches.
The officials of the Hanlin Academy may not have a high status, but they have a huge influence among scholars, because this group of people represents the dreams of scholars.
In addition to what happened in the joint report last year, the emperor punished a large number of Hanlin officials headed by Zhu Hao. Now the emperor wants to transfer Zhu Hao to another place earlier than Yang Tinghe, and puts an end to Yang Tinghe's idea of appointing Zhu Hao. Everything seems reasonable and reasonable.
Yang Tinghe asked: "Did His Majesty know in advance that Jingdao would be transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs?"
Qiao Yu continued to shake his head: "I don't know."
Yang Tinghe let out a long sigh.
In the past, there may have been doubts about Zhu Hao, but in the past two years, Zhu Hao is just a small role running errands for others in the Imperial Academy. No matter how you look at it, he is an insignificant official. Perhaps Zhu Hao's greatest value now is
The emperor used Yang Tinghe against him.
"By the way, Zhongtang, I have one more thing to tell you about Zhang Cong, the magistrate of Yongping Prefecture. I heard that this person is quite famous in governing the place. Many officials have jointly recommended him. Seeing that he has passed the exam in the past three years,
And given his age, if he wants to be transferred to the capital, it might be later this year...but he...look."
Qiao Yu was about to speak but stopped.
Zhang Cong was the key figure in initiating the Great Ceremony Discussion.
Although Zhu Hao was present in this life and the real instigator became Zhu Hao, Zhang Cong was at the forefront of the ceremony and was responsible for withstanding the firepower of the civil servant group.
Zhang Cong first served as deputy envoy of Shanxi Province, and then as magistrate of Yongping Prefecture. Both of these official positions were arranged by the emperor. Now the local people are praising Zhang Cong, which is obviously to please the emperor. Qiao Yu means to tell Yang Tinghe, you want to
Be careful with Zhang Cong.
Yang Tinghe said: "Didn't it mean that after he arrived in Yongping Mansion, he had a very unhappy time with local officials and gentry over local mining? Why didn't anyone participate in the impeachment?"
Qiao Yu sighed helplessly: "I don't know much about the affairs in this place, so I have to weigh it up myself, but I guess the conflict has been resolved."
Yang Tinghe was quite puzzled.
The emperor opened a mine in Yongping Prefecture. Although all the new mines were opened, they were obviously not in line with the interests of local gangsters. The previous magistrate of Yongping Prefecture came to represent the local officials and gentry.
There was a riot in the mine, and the local government was used to put pressure on the mine. Later, they led people to make trouble. They wanted to use official power to seal the mine, but were stopped by the Jin Yiwei. The conflict became more and more acute...
If it were Zhang Cong, could the mines and local officials live in harmony? Were those officials and gentry subdued by Zhang Cong with force? Or were they all bribed?
Now there are actually people praising him?
Will he still be given a universal umbrella when he is about to leave office?
Yang Tinghe suddenly thought of something and asked: "If Zhang Bingyong is transferred from Yongping Mansion, who would be more suitable to take over?"
"Um?"
Qiao Yu was startled.
When it comes to important official vacancies that compete with the emperor's power, didn't you, Yang Jiefu, take any initiative? You actually wanted to ask me?
"But it doesn't matter."
Yang Tinghe said.
"Haha, or...respect?"
Qiao Yu tentatively followed Yang Tinghe's words and suggested someone.
"Um."
Yang Tinghe actually nodded seriously, seeming to agree with this choice.
Qiao Yu smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty said that Zhu Jingdao would be transferred out, but he didn't say what kind of errand he would arrange for. Even if everything goes as arranged by Zhongtang, if Jingdao is really appointed as the prefect of Yongping Prefecture, then Zhang Bingyong should be the one
What’s the arrangement?”
By this time, Yang Tinghe seemed to have already made up his mind and was too lazy to continue arguing with Qiao Yu.
He stood up and walked to the door, saying: "In Nanjing's officialdom, there are many idle errands left for him, which will never make him feel aggrieved. But the prefect of Yongping must not let him continue doing it. His future career should be
Terminate in Nanjing."
Qiao Yu stood up in a hurry, caught up with him and reminded, "I'm afraid your majesty won't agree."
There were so many conflicts between the emperor and his ministers before, but now you, Yang Jiefu, are confident that you can run everything according to your ideas?
Will the emperor sit back and watch?
Yang Tinghe said: "I will let His Majesty agree. You don't need to worry about this. As for Jingdao, let's postpone the arrangements for him and wait for notification."
