After hearing this, Xia Yan knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes, and his voice trembled: "Xia Yan, I accept the decree and thank you for your kindness. I will work hard and live up to your majesty's high expectations!"
Among the six subjects, all the subjects are from the seventh level, and all the subjects are only the seventh level.
Due to its status as a restricted official, its rank can only be this.
But if you are given a job in one subject, this is not a simple promotion.
The military officers and officers were all under Xia Yan's command now.
That's not all.
In ordinary situations, I can only talk about it sparsely.
However, those who are in charge of a department are given the task. He, Xia Yan, who is responsible for the military department, has the right to refute memorials and decrees involving major military and state affairs from now on.
Even because he tended to pay more attention to border towns in his memorials, the emperor did not doubt him, but instead gave him the appointment of a military officer.
This is not something you dare to say in public, your Majesty just wants to set an example.
Will this power continue to be established?
Zhu Houcong took a deep look at Liang Chu: "I didn't expect that Huang Zuo had such bad luck before, so let's see which class Huang Zuo can get into this time. As for Wang Shifang, let him take the exam."
After that, he talked about the difficulties of Huang Zuoke's journey, in the tone of telling interesting things, but the name was remembered by the emperor after all.
What is involved is the brothers Yingzong and Emperor Jing, and the emperor's decision represents the attitude of the imperial power.
The beginning is so exciting, what do you think? You went for a run when someone was unfaithful, you were almost burned by the fire but you were calm as usual, you understood the etiquette and behaved obediently at the banquet.
"When the Ministry of Rites submitted a memorial regarding the palace examination, they also submitted a separate memorial."
The more the emperor ignores past grievances, the more embarrassed Mao Cheng becomes?
There are still disciples and disciples who will serve as officials, and the Mao family will not collapse. But if they are involved in some property and engage in corruption and bribery disputes in the future due to their status as gentry, it will be an easy excuse to take advantage of.
Liang Chu immediately left his seat and knelt down: "Your Majesty is so wise, and students all over the world will admire your Majesty's magnanimity!"
Xia Yan was moved because his talents shown in the memorial were recognized by the emperor.
The border towns should also pay attention, and his military branch should also be specifically involved in the affairs of the Beijing camp.
Now Yuan Zonggao, together with the Hanlin Academy, had selected some candidates for the document readers and asked Zhu Houcong to appoint them. They also asked the emperor to arrange the decision of the policy topic. However, what Zhu Houconn asked to recruit Liang Chu was another memorial sent together.
Now when he heard the emperor's question, Liang Chu immediately replied seriously: "Although Mao Cheng is stupid and pedantic, he did this matter correctly. But the head of the Ministry of Rites insists on implicating Xinke Gongsheng because of Mao Cheng's matter. He is really speculating on his superior's will and causing trouble.
I will not hide it from your majesty, but Huang Zuo is a junior student from my hometown, and he has a reputation for talent. When Shi Bangyan presided over the examination last year, he actually ranked Huang Zuo at the top of the list, which shows his talent."
The palace examination is quite serious. There will be seventeen examiners, all of whom are Jinshi.
Guo Xun immediately made an appointment with Xia Yan without hesitation: He was just a small official at first, but now he is obviously in the emperor's eyes. It is impossible for anyone who can be in the emperor's eyes to not understand what the emperor wants in this matter.
Of course the Gongsheng students will guess what the topic will be. The examiner at least has the power to assign people to the second or third class.
Liang Chu came to Xinuan Pavilion with his speculations. After saluting, he was given a seat and felt a little at ease.
Because the emperor also gave him a specific mission: to cooperate with and supervise the Fifth Army Governor's Office and the Ministry of War to dismantle the official troops in Beijing and reestablish the three major battalions.
Will the emperor rehabilitate Yu Qian again?
Liang Chu didn't believe that he didn't understand the sensitivity involved.
As the emperor, Zhu Houcong didn't want to put so much effort into planning the questions in the palace examination and selecting the examiners, so he just left it to them. Anyway, the palace examination only ranked, not failed.
Those given to the emperor are usually those who are ranked among the top ten in public discussion.
Only declare Liang Chu?
Zhang Zuo's heart trembled: "Yes."
When Liang Chu heard the posthumous title "Zhongwu", he felt indescribable envy in his heart.
Everyone who has learned the method feels that the king's heart is even more unpredictable.
After a moment of silence, he casually gave instructions: "Mr. Xuanliang Pavilion."
His old brain was also running rapidly: I will never believe that you have thought about this before. Now that the Nisei Sect disaster has just passed, what do you want to do with this?
Yu Qian saved the Ming Dynasty, but he did not stop the coup, and then he was unjustly killed by Yingzong. Xianzong was the son of Yingzong, so it was inconvenient for him to completely reverse the case; Xiaomiao was the grandson of Yingzong, and his posthumous title was too modest, which was actually a kind of vindication.
.
Liang Chu also knew why he was summoned.
The matter was indeed small, but it related to the emperor's true attitude towards Mao Cheng.
Xia Yan will not disregard the interests of the generals and ministers. If he can reconcile this matter between the Ministry of War and the military ministers, Xia Yan's next step will definitely be more than just a half-rank promotion!
A potential stock.
Having been taught a lesson, he stopped asking questions. But he knew that after he went to Wenyuan Pavilion, Yang Tinghe, Jiang Mian, and Mao Ji would think too much.
Over at the palace, another memorial was presented to Zhu Houcong, and it also involved potential stocks.
The palace examination ranks Gong students in the first subject, and their origins are determined from then on.
Facing the emperor's question, Liang Chu could only smile awkwardly in response.
"It sounds really rough...If it was once ranked first, why was it ranked eighteenth later?"
"It seems that the elders have discussed it. What does Mr. Liang think?"
Liang Chu was stunned: "Is your Majesty determined to do this?"
What does this matter have to do with someone trying to assassinate someone and commit rebellion?
Zhu Houcong nodded: "I have made up my mind. In my opinion, Yu Gong is worthy of the beautiful posthumous title of Zhongwu. I want to inform the world and hope that all officials will regard Yu Gong as a model. In addition, I think that Yu Gong is worthy of the posthumous title of Zhongwu."
Your meritorious service deserves to be enjoyed in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. This matter involves a lot, and I want the elders to discuss what to do first."
"Even though he is only ranked eighteen, it can be said that Mao Cheng has left no talent behind for the country."
Since His Majesty ascended the throne, this is the first time that he has summoned a cabinet minister alone.
Why is Huang Zuo so miserable?
How complicated is the internal situation of being the chief examiner? It is not a ranking that really determines one's origin. It is enough that Huang Zuoneng ranks among them. Liang Chu does not need to say more about the process.
The cabinet sent the draft without giving it to me, which was indeed a clear test.
He never believed that the emperor didn't know that he and Huang Zuonai were from the same hometown and had been in contact before.
Those who are really talented will not be bound by so many unspoken rules in Zhu Houcong's court, because their birth limit determines the upper limit.
Although he is not in charge, this supervisory official is very important.
Zhu Houcong revealed their intention, but he was called here for another matter: "These days, the Ministry of Rites is busy preparing for the posthumous ceremony for the emperor's brother. I suddenly remembered that Xiaomiao once gave Yu Shaobao a posthumous gift as a special minister, Guanglu.
, Zhu Guo, Grand Tutor, pursued the posthumous title of Su Min. This posthumous title is not enough to express the merits of the Duke's life. I first ascended to the great treasure, and I intend to pursue a beautiful posthumous title to comfort the heroic spirit. Xiaomiao Temple was not in a position to do a thorough job at that time, and I
Let my nephew do it."
What's important is how much of the emperor's use of Mao Cheng to establish his authority was out of genuine anger, and how much was just a means.
Liang Chu's heart skipped a beat. After looking at the emperor, he sighed and said, "Your Majesty, I forgive you for being frightened. This matter involves Mao Cheng, so I'd better ask your Majesty to judge."
Liang Chu only heard the emperor ask: "The head of the Ministry of Rites asked the tribute student Huang Zuo to take the general examination because he violated Mao Cheng's charter. Wang Shifang is Mao Cheng's son-in-law. Please tell me whether to expel the tribute student. This is a trivial matter, but the cabinet elders did not give any advice.
Sent to me?"
Zhu Houcong just waved his hand: "Yesterday, I said that the monarch and his ministers care about each other. Why are we still so tempted? We all put our minds down. I only checked the family background. When did I ever think about settling old scores? Except for the unification of the law, I
There have been some wars. Could it be that this period of time still makes you all uneasy?"
Zhongwu! Zhuge Liang’s posthumous title!
When he heard that he was entitled to enjoy the Ancestral Temple, Liang Chu even got goosebumps all over his body.
He understood immediately and asked tremblingly: "Are you worthy...worthy of enjoying the Ancestral Temple?"
Zhu Houcong laughed: "What? It doesn't conform to the old system?"
