Chapter 004 Just rely on Gao Xiuzhuan (4th update)
According to the practice of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial visits are on the third, sixth and ninth days. On this day, the first- to ninth-grade Beijing officials will go to the palace to pay homage to the emperor. As for the new Jinshi, they are currently assigned to various yamen to observe government affairs. Although they are familiar with the affairs of the ministry, they are temporarily exempted from attending the court.
The working hours of the Ming Dynasty were from Chen to You, which is equivalent to 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., a full ten hours, excluding the lunch break, which is not much different from that of later generations. It can be seen that hundreds of years of evolution are not enough time to transform from human to human. Superman.
Gao pragmatically got up early that day and set off from the clubhouse before the sun came out outside.
When Gao pragmatically arrived at the Yamen, the servants greeted him hurriedly and said with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to Mr. Xiuzhuan on his new appointment! Today is a good day. The auspicious stars are shining brightly. Mr. Xiuzhuan will surely rise to the top in the future!" "
Gao pragmatic smiled. He didn't know whether he would be able to achieve success in a smooth way, but he himself felt that as long as nothing unexpected happened, his career would be relatively smooth. After all, he had done so much preparation in advance, and it would not be ineffective. But this After all, everyone likes to hear flattery, so he smiled and nodded to the disciple.
After entering the Dengying Gate, Gao pragmatically entered the Prosecution Hall. When the official saw him, he also smiled with a smile on his face and bowed: "Master Xiu Zhuan is the first one to arrive today!"
Gao pragmatic smiled and said: "It's the first day of duty, so I don't dare to be late."
When the official complimented him and said with a smile: "I am always diligent in editing." After saying that, he held up the booklet, Gao pragmatically drew it, and walked to the public case. When Liu He, the official of Zhitang, saw Gao pragmatically, he He immediately came up to wipe the case.
When Gao Jingshi saw him like this, he remembered his past life, and nodded slightly at him to express his affirmation. Liu He was excited when he saw it, and he rubbed even more energetically.
After Gao pragmatic sat down, he waited for a while before footsteps could be heard outside the door. The first person to arrive at the Yamen was the editor Liu Yao, whom he had met at the Enrong Banquet. This person was Xiao Liangyou's room master. The second-ranked student in Weike was also one of the editors of the "Da Ming Huidian". When he saw Gao Pragmatic, he was a little surprised and said: "The number one scholar came so early!"
Gao pragmatic stood up and cupped his hands and said: "It's the first day of duty, I don't dare to be late."
Liu Yao smiled and said: "What should I say? The number one scholar is diligent." At this point, Liu Yao changed the topic and said: "It seems that this 'true leader for two hundred years' was not easy to come by."
Gao Pingshi didn't know what his intention was, so he could only smile and say: "The emperor is just encouraging you, how dare you, a minister, take it seriously."
After hearing this, Liu Yao twisted his beard and said: "Hey, Gao Xiuzan, don't be too modest. It's a time for the history museum to hire people. It's time for a talented person like Gao Xiuzan to show off his unique skills. Otherwise, how can he be worthy of the emperor?" Will I personally give you the 'Lu Shu Dan'?"
Gao Pingshi was moved in his heart, but still had a gentle smile on his face: "Editor Liu Xiu said something serious, I'm just lucky."
After hearing this, Liu Yao narrowed his eyes and laughed: "Is it a fluke?"
Gao pragmatically smiled and did not answer.
After Liu Yao, various Hanlin officials also arrived one after another. Xiao Liangyou and Wang Tingzhuan also arrived very early. Gao Pingshi took a look and found that some of the people in this mansion had met at the Enrong Banquet, and some Not yet, I’ll see you soon.
Xiao Liangyou and Wang Tingzhuan also reported to the Hanlin Academy yesterday, but according to the rules, they arrived later than Gao Pragmatic, so they did not see Pan Sheng, only Chen Siyu. At this time, according to the rules, Gao Pragmatic and the three new arrivals Ren, sent invitations to the seniors one by one, and each person was given a tael of silver and a handkerchief.
After everyone chatted for a while, the sound of the cloud board sounded, and they all returned to the public case and started their busy day. The three Gao pragmatic people had just arrived, so they had nothing to do but watch the Hanlins doing their work. Everyone was busy, and from time to time someone got up and started to work. He pulled out the classics from the bookshelf and brought them to his desk to read. As for Hanlin, who had been bending over his desk, the desk was covered with piles of books and copywriting.
Gao pragmatically thought about it, and at this time he was involved in the ceremony as a compiler. It seemed that some procedures were missing, so he simply asked Liu He to get a copy of the regulations of the Hanlin Academy and read it casually. He In the past, although he claimed to be a Hanlin official, he had never even been to the Hanlin Academy a few times. In fact, he didn't understand any rules. It would be appropriate to look at the regulations now.
After a while, some of everyone had finished what they were doing, some were fascinated by the files, and inevitably everyone was a little loose. At this time, there was a cough from outside, and it turned out that it was Chen Siyu who came. Everyone hurriedly got up and stood up, and said in unison: "Headmaster. ."
Chen Siyu said "hmm" and said to everyone: "Yesterday, the great uncle and our court met with the emperor. The emperor asked about the Ming Dynasty ceremony and expressed his dissatisfaction with the progress of the compilation. Later, the great uncle and our court went to the cabinet to meet I asked the president, who said that since the opening of the Hanlin Academy in the fourth year of Wanli and the establishment of a bureau to compile the conference, we have only re-recorded the old manuscripts from the 29th year of Jiajing, adding a few examples from recent years. Although it is time-consuming, the results are not effective. , the president was very dissatisfied. Therefore, Shen Zhongtang, Xu Zhongtang and Yu Zhongtang were appointed as the new vice presidents to supervise this matter. The three Zhongtangs have already made a charter, asking the museum to compile the old and new originals, study them in detail, and prepare a separate draft. .”
When Chen Siyu talked about rebuilding the Ming Dynasty Ceremony, everyone lowered their heads and secretly wondered: Why are the three vice-presidents this time all cabinet ministers? Why does the cabinet pay so much attention to this matter?
Only Sun Jigao, the number one scholar in the second year of Wanli, who was in charge of the compilation of the Imperial Academy, said angrily: "My colleagues and I have tried our best to rebuild the canon in the history museum, but the cabinet is still dissatisfied. What can I do?" What's the plan? If the three nuns really can't stand it, why not let them fix it themselves?"
After hearing this, Chen Siyu frowned and said: "The three central ministers are not only busy with cabinet affairs, but also have different ministries. How can they come to compile it in person? Sun Xiuzhan, I know you have done a lot of work before, but this time it is The emperor and the president are held accountable, and it is related to the examination! If it is not done well, not only you, but also this college will not be able to take the responsibility."
When Sun Jigao saw him carrying out Zhu Yijun and Guo Pu, and mentioning the exams, he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, lowered his head and sulked himself.
At that moment, Chen Siyu looked around at everyone and said, "Now, Sun Xiuzhan, let's take a rest. Huang Xiuzhan and others have been promoted to Japanese lecturers and have no time. Therefore, the chief director of the history museum will hand over the compilation of canons to this institute." Written by Gao Xiu. Everyone should know something about this written by Gao Xiu. Although he is new to the profession, he is very proficient in classics and history. He is the first real No. 1 scholar in six poems in the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty... Written by Gao Xiu, It will be up to you to come to the General Secretary to compile the canon. After the book is completed, this court will report your merits to the emperor and the cabinet on your behalf."
Hearing what Chen Siyu said, all the Hanlin officials were surprised at first, and then relieved. They looked at Gao Pragmatic with different eyes.
Gao pragmatically frowned a little. Why did Chen Siyu leave such an important matter to rebuild the Ming Dynasty ceremony to the senior Hanlin Academy, instead of leaving it to him, a newcomer? What's weird about this? Is it the teacher who is doing it?
Did he create an opportunity to show off his merits, or did Chen Zhangyuan want to praise him?
As soon as Gao Jingshi opened his mouth, he was about to politely decline again, but Sun Jigao snorted and questioned: "I have been practicing for four years, and I have just begun to have some ideas. Gao Xiuzhuan will be able to take the lead if he enters Hanyuan.
Has it been edited?"
Faced with Sun Jigao's doubts, Gao Pragmatic couldn't help but feel a little wary. He thought to himself: I originally wanted to keep a low profile, but Chen Siyu forced me to come forward like this. I don't know whether he was forced to do it or did it deliberately? But
In any case, Sun Jigao is certainly not the only one who doubts me. If I are looked down upon by them now, I am afraid that I will never be able to speak in the Hanlin Academy again. In this case, I have no choice but to make a public statement today.
Already.
Having made up his mind, Gao Pragmatic smiled slightly and said: "Sun Xiuzhan, I can be considered as coming from a family of eunuchs. I dare not say that I have read all the classics and history collections, but I know a little bit about ancient matters, especially the laws and regulations of this dynasty.
Sir, if you don’t believe Sun Xiuzan, you can ask me.”
Although Sun Jigao spoke upright, he had a good manner. He said politely after hearing the words: "It's not that I don't believe it, but it's just a matter of compilation and revision of the Ming Dynasty. In fact, the grand ceremony of the Wanli Dynasty is also the focus of our efforts. We really need to be able to believe in what we have entrusted."
Only when you get someone can you hand it over to Gao Xiuzhan, please don't be offended by Gao Xiuzhan."
Seeing his clear eyes, Gao Pingshi couldn't help but feel good about him and said with a smile: "Sun Xiuzhan is a public servant. It's too late for me to admire him. How can I be surprised? Please ask Sun Xiuzhan to ask questions."
Sun Jigao nodded, and then asked Gao Jingshi a few questions about the laws and regulations. However, Gao Jingshi had been looking after Zhu Yijun since the Longqing period, and he himself had been involved in the study. How could he be unfamiliar with the laws and regulations?
But when I saw Gao Pragmatic talking eloquently, not only did he answer questions fluently, but he also knew how to answer ten questions, which made all the officials nod their heads.
After Sun Jigao asked, he also showed admiration. He admitted defeat frankly and said with cupped hands: "Gao Xiuzhuan is a great talent. Sun is convinced. The compilation of the canon is done by Gao Xiuzhuan. To be honest... Sun is relieved."
.”
Chen Siyu was very pleased to see that Sun Jigao had been convinced by Gao Pragmatism. He immediately said to the two of them: "The two of you discuss matters, which is very commendable. It should be understood that gentlemen should be harmonious but not different. Therefore, this hospital has always advocated this gentlemanly behavior in the hospital.
To fight for.”
Sun Jigao cupped his hands and said, "The director is really wise and discerning. He has promoted such a great talent as Gao Xiuzhan, which also allows us to take a breather."
Whether these words were true or just flattery, Chen Siyu didn't bother to think about it now. Anyway, it sounded very comfortable, so he immediately said: "In that case, this court will appoint Gao Xiuzan as the chief editor, and the chief editor will re-edit the Ming Dynasty Canon."
, in the history museum, anyone who has nothing to do needs to help Gao Xiu write one or two."
All the officials said yes.
Chen Siyu was very interested, smiled, and said: "The matter of the ceremony is personally asked by the emperor, and is an important matter that the president personally views. You must not neglect it. When the book is completed, everyone who participated in the compilation will not wait until the test is completed. They can all be promoted to one level."
All the Hanlin officials were overjoyed upon hearing this. They must know that compared to the so-called leaving a name in history, for these ordinary Hanlin officials, it is more important to be promoted to one level.
Everyone also hurriedly said to Gao Xiuxian: "From now on, we will all rely on you, Gao Xiuzhen."
Gao Jingshi also hurriedly said humbly: "How dare you? I have to ask your seniors for advice." Everyone was even more satisfied when they saw that Gao Jingshi was neither arrogant nor impetuous.
Then Chen Siyu ordered a few more reviewers, as well as Xiao Liangyou and Wang Tingzhuan, and said to them: "You have nothing to do at the moment. You should do your best to assist Gao Xiu in compiling the monastery code. Everyone will make progress every day. I will Supervise it personally and don’t neglect it.”
Everyone agreed, and Xiao Liangyou and Wang Tingzhuan even showed smiles that could be imagined but could not be expressed in words.
The three of them are the same age as the serious Gengchenke.
