Gao pragmatically followed Zhu Yijun on an imperial mission this time. Including the delay in Tianshou Mountain, it took less than five days. When he returned to the capital, he actually got a reward. But it was not a serious official promotion, just a promotion to the lower class.
Rank, promoted from Chengwu Lang to Scholar Lang - not much use, both of them are from the sixth rank. If we use the later generations to make a forced analogy, Scholar Lang is roughly equivalent to senior Chengwu Lang.
For Gao Pragmatic, two shi of lumi and a few feet of cloth a month are not even a drizzle.
Apart from that, there was nothing special. He plunged into the pile of old papers again, and together with Xiao Liangyou, Wang Tingzhan and a group of Hanlin Academy officials, they compiled, edited, reviewed and began to sort out the documents and compile the canon.
On the way to Tianshou Mountain this time, Zhu Yijun discussed the compilation of the ceremony with Gao Pragmatic. He hinted to Gao Pragmatic that the compilation time could be shortened this time, because it is estimated that it will have to be revised again in the future, so Gao Pragmatic "
It doesn’t matter if you miss something, as long as there are fewer mistakes.”
Only then did Gao Pragmatic realize that Zhu Yijun brought up the matter of compiling the guild this time just to take credit for himself.
But think about it, since Gao Gong's New Deal, there have indeed been many modifications to the state and dynasty system, and the reform is still in progress. Although Guo Pu is prudent and seeking stability, there will still be some system adjustments, so in fact, the revision is now
It is very likely that the Huidian will be out of date in a few years, and it will indeed need to be revised by then.
However, being highly pragmatic is not without its troubles. The main trouble is that there is really not enough manpower.
When Gao Gong proposed revising the canon, he mobilized a large number of senior scholars. As a result, after several years of revision, only a first draft was produced. Gao Gong himself unexpectedly passed away. Later, Guo Pu's main energy was involved in stabilizing the overall situation after Gao Gong's death.
The matter of revising the canon has slowed down.
Then Gao pragmatically joined the Hanlin Academy. Zhu Yijun tried every means to give him some credit, so he brought up the matter of revising the code. The Hanlin Academy had to force the submission of the manuscript. Guo Pu and others knew the emperor's thoughts and directly gave the manuscript to the Hanlin Academy.
I called back and was told that it was not up to par and asked to try again.
This must be a very shocking thing, and as a result, some senior Hanlin officials are not willing to do it. In fact, the Hanlin Academy itself has always had an unresolved problem with the canon revision, that is, if the canon revision is successful, everyone will be promoted to the next level.
.
Then this leads to an implicit problem. Since everyone has to upgrade to a higher level after completing the cultivation, if I study a hundred volumes, I will upgrade to a new level, and if you only study one volume, you will also upgrade to a new level. Why should I do more?
We all come from academic backgrounds, how many real nerds can there be? So we all worked hard, working as little as possible. Two monks carried water to eat, and three monks had no water to eat. After a few years, there was nothing.
Completed.
This group of people are also annoyed. They feel that if they haven’t been promoted to an official position after a few years, they might as well do something else. Even if they have to endure the seniority, it is better than doing this. So if you can find a good one, you can make money.
If you don't have enough money, you can either find a way to lecture on the day, or find a way to join the cabinet, or even if it doesn't work, you have to sneak into the inner library and teach the eunuchs to study. In short, it is better than staying in the Hanlin Academy to study.
As a result, Gao Jingshi has fewer people to use. There is not a single Jinshi left in the Longqing period. They are all Hanlin officials who won the gold medals in the two subjects of Wanli two years and Wanli five years, and then they Geng
Chenke Sanding Armor.
Not to mention the three of them, Gao Jingshi, the Hanlin officials in the first two divisions of Wanli don't have much "work experience". Most of them have just left the academy, and several of them started by compiling the Ming Dynasty Canon.
An errand.
So now it is equivalent to a bunch of novices who are presiding over the compilation of national systems, and they are quite motivated. I am afraid that mistakes and omissions are inevitable.
All the Hanlin officials began to work hard, and Gao Pingshi was the chief editor. He assigned the editors one by one according to the general regulations for re-editing. Later, the editors from Taipus Temple, Guanglu Temple, Ministry of Industry and other ministries came to send
Here are the examples of new practices in various yamen, as well as the official records.
The Ming Dynasty Huidian is based on official affairs, with official offices as the outline, and records are divided into departments. Therefore, each yamen must have a compiler to cooperate with the Hanlin Academy in rebuilding the Ming Dynasty Huidian.
In order to get the credit justifiably, Gao Pragmatic had to put more responsibilities on himself. Not only was he responsible for summarizing and editing, but he also assigned himself the most troublesome part of the code changes. While other colleagues were assigned the task, they were all
Check various classics against past regulations, compare them with the classics, revise and add them, and cite the source.
Among everyone, Gao Pragmatic has some knowledge of these historical books, statutes, and regulations, so he can check the regulations fairly quickly. But after all, he mainly gained experience when he was a companion reader and an observer of government, so in Longqing and Wanli
In terms of the system that has been in place for more than ten years, he has an advantage, but if it is pushed forward, it will be much weaker.
Weaknesses must be strengthened. He was not good at the laws of the past dynasties, so he had to make up for them. So he made a list and asked Liu He to take charge of various functions, including the ancestral training of the Ming Dynasty, the laws of the Ming Dynasty, the orders of the Ming Dynasty, the rituals of the Ming Dynasty, and the Hongwu rituals.
I borrowed books on customs, etiquette, ancient customs, etc., and planned to study them all carefully.
Then these books piled up like a mountain on Gao Pragmatic's desk.
A reviewer on the side saw this scene and smiled at Gao Pragmatic and said: "Gao Xiuzhuan, the matter of regulations is the most complicated. I'm afraid you will have to work harder for those who can do it."
Gao pragmatic smiled and said: "It's hard to talk about those who are capable. I just need to put in more effort." That's what he said, but he also knew that according to Zhu Yijun's request, he had to speed up the progress and work overtime for sure. It was probably still possible.
With the hospital as my home, I can't take it easy these past few months.
So Gao Jingshi picked up the book on the table and started reading. Gao Jingshi couldn't read quickly and couldn't read ten lines at a glance. The other Hanlin officials were all good readers. For them, reading a book quickly was as easy as eating and drinking.
However, being highly pragmatic also has his advantages. His advantage is that he is good at reading. He estimates that it may be due to the influence of time travel. The memory of reading is quite impressive. It may not be called photographic memory, but it is not too different.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In the review hall of the Hanlin Academy, the sun is shining just by the window, and the breeze is blowing outside. The sound of books turning is heard one after another in the hall, and the Hanlin people are all immersed in their desks, not in front of their desks.
Writing vigorously means searching the pages line by line.
The weather in the capital is very good today, and there is no pollution in the atmosphere these days. The blue sky is as clear as a wash, and the clouds are rolling and relaxing. Looking up, it always makes people feel a little lazy.
If you don't have a nap habit, this will be a good day for reading.
How can ordinary people see the classics and history books and department files in the Hanlin Academy, but here they are placed everywhere. For Gao Pragmatic, many of these things he has never read before.
, From these historical books, we can see the way our predecessors governed the country, and the regulations and etiquette of their predecessors, every word and every word, is full of painstaking efforts.
Although Gao Pragmatic is a very purposeful person, he really likes reading, and reading history has been his hobby for many years. Although these chapters may seem boring to others, to him, they are quite interesting.
It’s interesting. After reading for a day, there was a mountain of books piled up in front of Gao Pragmatic’s desk, but they were only slightly thinner.
However, he found one interesting thing, that is, reading these statutes was very helpful for him to understand the development of the Ming Dynasty's system, and these things are likely to help him inherit the legacy of San Bo Gao Gong and continue to advance in the future.
Reform helps.
Gao pragmatism became interested and planned to fight at night, so he sent Liu He to the concierge to tell the servants he had brought with him that he would not go back today and would spend the night in the Hanlin Academy.
Liu He agreed, and not only went to tell the servants of the Gao family, but also bought some cakes and snacks for Gao Jingshi and made a pot of tea before returning home. However, Gao Jingshi did not like snacks and would rather eat a bowl of noodles at night.
Come on. You have to tell Liu He about this next time.
Except for Gao Pragmatic, most of the other editors had not finished their errands and had to stay and burn the midnight oil. At night, all the lecture halls and reading halls in the Hanlin Academy were locked, except for the review hall, which was dimly lit.
The sound of fighting came from time to time, and a group of officials in the review hall were immersed in copying books. It was quiet at first, but late at night, mosquitoes began to make trouble, and the buzzing made people uneasy.
The room was full of files, and everyone began to complain.
"If you ask me, if you want to copy the classics and indicate the sources, you can just find any scribes. Why do you have to use me?"
"That's right. I have been studying hard for more than 20 years in Hanchuang. I thought I would become famous in the Imperial Academy, but I never expected that I would come here to copy books."
"Yes, my parents at home thought that after I entered the Hanlin Academy, I would serve in front of the emperor and meet the emperor at any time, and that I was noble and noble. However, they never thought that I and others in the Hanlin Academy were just copycats, while the Qing Dynasty was a poor man.
Water, how can it be expensive?”
"Let's just endure it for now. It only takes a year or two to get through it. Isn't that how we endured the cold window in the past few decades? It's just to endure it a little longer."
"Brother, I put it lightly. I don't think it will take three to five years to complete the reconstruction of the ceremony. If this continues, I'm afraid that even a young daughter-in-law can become a mother-in-law."
Gao Pragmatic wanted to stop these people from complaining, but although he was the chief editor, his qualifications were indeed too junior. He really couldn't say anything more and could only cough a few times. But those reviewers were obviously not high-ranking officials.
Coming from a family background, I didn't know the majesty of Xiao Ge Lao back then, so I didn't take Gao Pragmatism seriously.
Gao pragmatic listened to the gossip of these people and couldn't help but shook his head. He knew that these people didn't really have no determination. How could they get Jinshi without concentration? In fact, they just had too much hope before, so they entered the Imperial Academy.
After being admitted to the hospital, the disappointment will become even greater. There is no way to persuade them to do this. We can only wait and see when they adjust their mentality.
Gao pragmatically finished the pastries with tea, then took off his official robes and put on the uniforms he wore in daily life, took out a book from the mountain of books on the desk, and continued reading.
When he looked at it, he saw the dawn, and the hill of books on the koan was only half shorter. He looked up and saw that everyone was already asleep on the koan. He couldn't help but feel sleepy and closed his eyes.
I lay down on the koan and planned to sleep for a while.
After sleeping for more than an hour, the cloud board rang, and it was already the time to go to the Yamen. Gao pragmatically got up from the public case, wiped his face with cold water, and asked Liu He to make a pot of ginseng tea - this is
The high-quality Liaodong wild ginseng he brought from his house was said to have excellent effects, which was just right for these days of working overtime and staying up late.
However, after a few days like this, Chen Siyu, who was in charge of the college affairs, became a little anxious, because everyone else was writing while reading, but Gao Pragmatic was just reading all day long, but he didn't even see him move a pen.
That day he couldn't help but call Gao Pingshi and asked him why he hadn't started writing yet.
Gao pragmatically said sincerely: "It's not that Xiaguan refuses to write, it's just that Xiaguan is more accustomed to laying a good foundation first and forming an overall idea before writing, just like writing an article. If he is not familiar with the four books and does not understand the text, Zhu Zhu has never read it.
If so, then how can I write it? Please be patient, Master, and I will catch up with the progress in a few days."
Chen Siyu was no better than those reviewers who had little knowledge. He did not want to offend Gao Pragmatic on this matter, so he put aside his eagerness and said with a smile: "Since Gao Xiuzan is confident, then this hospital can rest assured. Gao Xiuzan, this hospital
I also know that it is not easy to revise the code, but now that the emperor and the elders are urging me to do it, we have no other choice but to ask you to work harder."
Gao Pragmatic smiled and nodded, and said: "Master in charge, please rest assured that this matter will not drag on for too long."
Chen Siyu was surprised, but he couldn't show it, so he just vaguely agreed and sent Gao Pragmatic out.
