Thanks to Long Qing's holy judgment, Gao Wuzhen is now officially the prince's accompaniment, pretending to be a bachelor's student. As for the next few details, such as personal declaration, dental badges, and official uniforms, there are departments in the palace who are responsible for taking care of them.
There is no need to be pragmatic and worry about it yourself.
Long Qingze then told Shen Shixing: "Shen Aiqing, you and all the officials will work hard today at noon. Go to the cabinet to discuss with Mr. Gao the academic arrangements after the prince leaves the cabinet, and then ask Mr. Gao to discuss these matters early.
.”
After all, Gao Gong concurrently serves as the "Knowing Prince Jingyanshi" and is considered the supervisor. Of course, he has to discuss course arrangements and other matters. At the same time, Gao Gong's own time schedule is tight. He usually works in the cabinet in the morning and goes to the official office in the afternoon.
The office was busy, so the prince's wedding banquet had to be squeezed into the noon break.
Of course Shen Shixing was aware of this situation, so he did not shirk it and led all the officials to express gratitude.
Long Qing looked at the time and it was already getting late. He originally thought that things were about the same and he could send everyone back so that he and others could have a meal. Who knew that at this time Gao Pragmatic saw the opportunity and stepped forward, bowed seriously and said
: "Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Long Qing was a little surprised, and then he laughed. He showed his uncle-next-door smile again, and asked kindly: "Hey, Gao Aiqing, what do you want to tell me?" Listening to his tone, Mr. Gao Pragmatic
I think he may be the kind of person who particularly likes children. No wonder it went so smoothly when I encouraged Gao Gong to let him do this.
However, now that Shen Shixing and other gentlemen were present, Gao Pragmatic still behaved seriously and said in a dignified manner: "Returning to Your Majesty, I said in my previous article that I wanted to dedicate the book "Long Wen Whip Shadow" to Your Majesty and the Crown Prince, so I am so
It seems that I was selected by Your Majesty because of this book... In this case, if I present this book after I return, I am afraid that the suspicious officials from outside may seek to harm Your Majesty, so I boldly ask Your Majesty to allow me to stay in Wenhua tonight.
The palace may be located anywhere at will, and the central official shall supervise it day and night, and shall not be allowed to meet with outsiders until I have documented the entire book before taking office."
Long Qing was really surprised when he heard this, and asked in astonishment: "Is this necessary?" He turned to Shen Shixing and asked: "Shen Aiqing, what do you think?"
Shen Shixing thought for a while, nodded and said: "Although this move really aggrieved Gao Shidu, what Gao Shidu said is not unreasonable. After all, today Gao Shidu is in agreement with your majesty, the prince, the noble concubine and us.
I agree that it is indeed because of "Long Wen Whip Shadow". If Your Majesty finds it convenient, I agree that Gao Shi will read it to prove it for myself."
The so-called "if your Majesty finds it convenient" is because Gao Pragmatic's suggestion is equivalent to staying in the palace. Although he is really young enough and has asked himself to be "supervised day and night by the central official," after all, strictly speaking, he still has to stay in the palace.
Some broke the palace ban rules.
Of course, Long Qing was not worried about what would happen if a child stayed in the palace. Moreover, Gao Pragmatic not only asked eunuchs to supervise himself, but also set the location in Wenhua Pavilion - there were no maids here, so what was there to worry about? It would not be spread.
Any bad news.
He mainly felt that doing this seemed like no one believed in Gao Jingshi, which made him a little worried about Gao Jingshi's feelings, and even more worried about Gao Gong's feelings after knowing the news.
Long Qing hesitated for a moment and then said: "Let's do this. Gao Aiqing will stay for a while and have lunch with me. Meng Chong, you go to the cabinet with Shen Aiqing and the others, report Gao Aiqing's suggestion just now to Mr. Gao, and ask Mr. Gao about it."
Opinion. If Mr. Gao agrees, you don’t have to come over right away. First arrange for people to tidy up a room in the Wenhua Palace. The writing and calligraphy must be prepared, as well as beds and bedding. In particular, they must not be simple. The evening meals must be prepared.
You also have to be careful..."
For an emperor, it was a bit verbose to give such detailed instructions, but no matter Shen Shixing and others, or Gao Pragmatic himself, they all felt that Long Qing valued him. Of course, this may be because he loved the house and the bird, but in short, everyone was moved by it.
Even Feng Bao couldn't help but feel jealous after listening to it. He thought: This is not good. If this trend continues, Gao Gong's holy family will not be shaken. Even if Gao Pragmatic stays with the prince for a long time,
Yes, I'm afraid that I will lose my favor in the future, so I have to find a way.
In turn, he resented the unpromising children of the other families who came to participate in the selection today. If they had performed better and suppressed Gao Pragmatic, how could there be so much trouble? The others were not Gao Gong's nephews!
Even if Zhang Jianxiu... forget it, I have read Zhang Jianxiu's article today. It is impossible to expect him, and I don't know how Zhang Juzheng taught it.
Zhang Juzheng was really wronged by his slander. Historically, some of Zhang Juzheng's sons were quite good at studying. Although they cannot be said to be talented, they are not bad. Otherwise, no matter how powerful Zhang Juzheng is, he would not be able to do it.
Putting some complete trash snacks into the first class, even causing turmoil in scholars and public opinion.
Later, when times changed, Zhang Juzheng's house was confiscated after his death. One of the charges was that his two sons won the top prize and second place in the exam, which was the result of his behind-the-scenes operation. Some even said that even his third son Zhang Maoxiu's plan for the top prize was ghostwritten by someone else.
As a result, Zhang Maoxiu was called the "joint champion", and some people even said the even more unpleasant "wild bird is Luan". Some people wrote such a poem to ridicule: "Both the number one scholar and the second one are named Zhang, and the literary star may not shine in Chu State. If it is
My husband refuses to go, so Liulang is still a Tanhualang." This means that as long as Zhang Ju is in office, Zhang Jingxiu, the sixth son of his family, will also be able to become a Tanhualang in the future.
When Zhang Maoxiu became the number one scholar, did his father's influence play a role? It should be said that there was. If he himself was a dandy with meager and dirty talents, and Zhang Juzheng dared to use this to face the long remarks of the country's talented people, this matter would be even more serious.
Ridiculous. So the key question here is, does Zhang Maoxiu have any knowledge? Historical books say that he "accrued great learning and cherished the ancient times, and he was clear about the poor." Judging from these eight words, Zhang Maoxiu's knowledge and conduct can withstand scrutiny.
But as a top scholar, you still need to let your works speak for yourself.
Zhang Maoxiu once wrote a poem in his later years: The forest is full of autumn colors, and the geese chirp high in the frosty sky. The wild flowers are thin due to the cold, and the turbid wine is rich. The white snow knows the solitary tune, and there are two hairs on the green mountains. People come to Zhongwei's house, and basil grows on the ground.
Gao pragmatism feels that although the poems are different from contemporary texts, at least this poem alone is neat, rigorous and talented. The style is melancholy and desolate, heavy and introverted, which is difficult for those who have not experienced many vicissitudes of life. It contains both emotions about the vagaries of the world, and also a sense of generosity.
He has an aloof and unconventional spirit of clearing standards. Although he only showed his skills forty years later, it can still be seen that he was extraordinary at that time. Zhang Juzheng dared to let his son be the number one scholar, so he should have some confidence in his heart.
However, even if the situation came to this, no one mentioned Zhang Jianxiu. It happened that the selection of the prince's companion this time was too coincidental in terms of age. The prince's companion was close to Zhu Yijun's age, and although Zhang Juzheng had many sons, he
It just so happened that only Zhang Jianxiu was suitable. Just imagine, in the end, Zhang Jianxiu, who had the official military position, what chance would he have in front of a group of official disciples with official backgrounds? Not to mention Gao Pragmatic, a cheater.
