As soon as Zhang Cai came out like this, everyone who was arguing in the hall was silent at the same time, and they all stopped to look at him tacitly.

Don't look at Zhang Cai, who is only a six-grade official at this time, but his talent and influence are extraordinary.

Here I have to talk about the functions of the ministry. The Ministry of Officials is different from the other five departments, under the Ministry of Officials, there are left and right servants, and further down, it is divided into four Qing Divisions, namely: the Department of Literature and Selection, the Department of Seal Inspection, the Department of Examination of Merit, and the Department of Honors.

Each division has one of them, and then the deputy is the outsider, and then the director, the order, the secretary, etc.

The Ministry of Officials is also responsible for the performance appraisal and promotion of officials, and its Chinese Selection Division and the Examination and Merit Division are particularly important; if you want to rank second, the Literature Selection Division is the first, and the Meritorious Examination Department is second.

At this time, Zhang Cai was the head of the examination department. What is a meritorious appraisal department? It literally means that it has the function of evaluating the performance of officials. Those who pass the assessment will be reported to the Anthology Division for the final reward and punishment promotion.

The so-called head of the six departments is the Ministry of Officials, and the head of the Ministry of Officials is in the Anthology, which is the origin of this. However, everyone understands that the test is actually the first pass.

Therefore, the weight of Zhang Cai, the six-grade principal, is definitely very different from other principals. How many people are counting on him to eat, and who dares to ignore him? Although there are several levels above, the county officials are not as good as the current management, and this is the reason.

This is also the reason why Zhang Cai stood outside and everyone tacitly shut up. These people who are standing up now are all low-level officials, and the bigwigs behind them may not care about Zhang Cai, but they don't have that confidence.

It can be said that Zhang Cai is almost the hottest heavyweight except for a group of bigwigs. Even Emperor Hongzhi on the throne couldn't help but cheer up a little bit.

"Oh, what does the Zhang Qing family have to say?" Emperor Hongzhi nodded lightly and asked indifferently.

Zhang Cai saluted again, and then raised his head and said proudly: "The ministers have just heard that the courtiers are discussing, but they are all empty talk, not enough to say, it's really ridiculous!"

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the face, and then a low voice of discussion sounded. The ministers who had just stood up all glared angrily, and some of them even blushed.

In the crowd, Li Dongyang's brows frowned slightly again, and he looked at Zhang Cai deeply, and there was a flash of essence in his eyes.

Fu Han was also taken aback, but he didn't expect Zhang Cai to pop out such a sentence. Isn't that offending people? And it's offending such a large group at once.

I really couldn't figure out what he was going to do, so he opened his eyes and couldn't help but light up, and when he saw the silent Yang Tinghe, he immediately moved his feet and leaned over.

"Brother Jiefu. He whispered.

Yang Tinghe glanced at him, smiled and nodded, but did not speak.

Fu Han didn't care either, and only whispered for advice: "Brother Jiefu, do you know why Zhang Shangzhen is like this......? It's not ......."

Yang Tinghe's eyes warmly glanced at the people in front of him, and said with a low smile: "Brother Yuchuan is a little restless, just wait and see." Is Zhang Shangzhen a person who speaks lightly? ”

Fu Han was stunned, and when he was about to ask again, Yang Tinghe just smiled and didn't say anything, and refused to say more. Fu Han could only hold back helplessly, but his heart was like a cat scratching.

Emperor Hongzhi above was obviously shocked by Zhang Cai's words, looked at him carefully, and then said, "Oh? Why did Zhang Qing say that?"

Everyone in the hall fell silent again, and they all looked at it.

The smug look in Zhang Cai's eyes flashed, and he bowed down and hugged his fists and replied: "Your Majesty, the ministers have heard that there are sages, and there are things in their words, so they must be practiced." The unity of knowledge and action can be impartial. Minister, I think so. All of you in this hall may talk loudly or write passionately, but you don't know who has really experienced it on the ground? Today's matter is related to the tranquility of the frontier and the great plan of the national war, and An Neng so lightly ignored it? The minister thought that it was right to immediately recruit specific parties to come to the court, ask them face to face, and ask His Majesty to make a holy ruling. ”

Everyone in the hall was stunned, and they couldn't help but look at each other. What kind of unity of knowledge and action, is it possible that we should all go to the frontier to have a look, and then come back to discuss politics? This is simply unreasonable, if that is the case, is not all daylily cold? It's just nonsense!

Haven't they all acted like this for thousands of years? Reports were sent to various places below, and the ministers discussed and discussed them, and then gave replies and implemented them, and there were no major mistakes or omissions. Not to mention it, you have to practice it.

Besides, we can get to where we are today, because we have only learned to be superhuman, and the height and vision of the people below us are higher, of course we can point them out, what is so ridiculous about this.

The so-called literati are light, and all of them are consciously higher than others, where are they willing to accept Zhang Cai's words?

When someone stood up and said: "Master Zhang, but I don't know which sage you are talking about." I can't wait, but I am familiar with the classics of scripture and history, but I have never known about it? ”

The man's tone was sarcastic, which immediately caused everyone to chuckle. But it was a clerk who called Zhang Jin in the matter. This official department is inherently opposed to the official department, and all the officials selected by the official department must be reviewed and performed by the official department. There is some overlap between the two sides, and the ugliness of them can be imagined.

The six divisions have nothing to do with the six departments at all, and belong to another department, the General Administration Department. Its responsibility is to pick up the missing, fill the gaps, admonish and inspect the six departments and departments. Therefore, Zhang Jin came out at this time, which is also the proper meaning of the question.

All the courtiers were all looking at the excitement at the moment, and they looked at each other, secretly looking forward to it.

Zhang Cai's face was filled with disdain, he glanced at Zhang Jin indifferently, and said hesitantly: "Master Zhang is rich and rich, don't you know that there are relics in the wilderness and idle among the people? Confucianism of my generation should be modest and cautious, and not ashamed to ask questions, which is the way of a sage. Why is Master Zhang so proud that he doesn't look at the world in his eyes?"

What he said suddenly made Zhang Jin blush. angrily argued: "Zhang Shangzhen, don't divert the topic. When did I say that I don't respect the sage? I just wonder which sage said that. ”

Zhang Cai laughed, his eyes swept through the crowd, and suddenly pointed at one of them and smiled: "It's him." ”

Everyone followed the sound, first quiet, and then couldn't help but chuckle. It turned out that the person Zhang Cai was referring to was a small official in a cyan robe standing in the back row. But there are all Jinshi who have just been promoted to the current department, and most of them are studying in various ministries. Zhang Cai now said that he was a sage, which was not a clear joke about Zhang Jin.

Zhang Jin's face turned purple, and he trembled and pointed at him speechless. And the little officer in the green robe was also at a loss at this time, completely unaware of what was going on. When everyone looked at him, they couldn't help but burst into uncontrollable laughter.

"Zhang Shangzhen! You...... You are presumptuous! This is the place where the government of the great dynasty is discussed, you ...... But you are playing child's errands...... You, you, you...... Your Majesty, the minister impeached Zhang Cai, the head of the Ministry of Officials, for his indifference and contempt for the government, please treat him for the crime of great disrespect!" Zhang Jin turned around tremblingly, but the last sentence was to bow to Emperor Hongzhi on the throne.

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes also flashed with an unswerving color, and his eyes looked at Zhang Cai with a slight coldness.

Zhang Cai's face was straight, and he preemptively said in a deep voice: "Lord Zhang, please be cautious, but I don't know where Cai is playing?

Zhang Jin laughed angrily, pointed at the little official and said, "Where is the play? Ha, could it be that the sage is really something? If so, then all the colleagues here have become saints? This is not a child's play, not contempt for the imperial court, what is it?"

"Duh! Zhang Jin, Ru'an dares to underestimate the people of the world like this!" As soon as Zhang Jin's words fell, Zhang Cai changed color violently, and his voice was angry, which suddenly startled the courtiers, including Zhang Jin.

Zhang Cai's face did not change, he strode to the end of the team, pulled the little official out, and said loudly: "Everyone, this is a new jinshi in the undergraduate, and Wang Shouren of Yuyao." Now it is temporarily under the Ministry of Workers to observe the government. Perhaps his qualifications in power are not sufficient for the time being, but who dares to say that his knowledge must not be good? If this is the case, then does it not mean that there is a big problem in the undergraduate imperial examination, so that the fish and the eyes are confused, and the mud and sand are all gone?"

Well, this green-robed little official who was completely pulled out by Mo Zaiyang is none other than the Wang Shouren Wang University Tyrant who was once cheated by Su Mo.

Wang Shouren also felt that he had beeped. This Nima is so good that he didn't find anyone and didn't provoke anyone, so why did the trouble fall on him again? This Nima was lying in the gun...... Hey, why did he say "again"? His eyes began to be confused again.

Before, he listened to Zhang Cai's words in the back, and couldn't help but be inexplicably excited, and he almost wanted to high-five and praise. At this time, although he had not yet created "Xinxue", the core idea of it: the unity of knowledge and action, had already taken shape.

At this time, some people who overheard this theory actually talked about things, but isn't it just like a gluttony smells the smell of meat and a bee smells the honey syrup?

However, who knew that Leng Buding was suddenly pulled out, and under the attention of a large number of important ministers in the court, Wang Shouren was stunned.

Not to mention that Wang Shouren was stunned here, but said that as soon as Zhang Cai's call came out, the entire court suddenly fell silent, and all the ministers changed their faces slightly, and everyone kept silent and held their breath.

Damn! Why did this suddenly get involved in that case again? You must know that although the curtain has long since come to an end on this year's case of fraud in the imperial examinations, in fact, its impact inside and outside the government and the opposition is not at all as great, deep, and extensive as it seems. Not only did it not stop there, but it spread more and more widely in the market, and I don't know how many different versions came out.

This topic is like a taboo, and everyone is careful to avoid it, lest one of them be bad and bring * annoyance to themselves.

But now that Zhang Cai is fine, he suddenly reiterates this matter in the court, what does he want to do? Although he is not speaking directly, but which one does not understand the implication?

Something is going to happen! Something is going to happen!

In the crowd, Fu Han's cheeks turned pale first, his eyes stared at Zhang Cai, and he didn't know how many of the most vicious curses had passed in his heart.

That's what he said? This is what he said? This is what he said? This is especially trying to kill Lao Tzu. In vain, he ran to the door to please him, but it turned out that he dug a pit for himself and sent the handle to others.

At this moment, Fu Han's intestines were green with remorse in his heart, and the resentment in his heart was like the Yellow River rushing, and he couldn't wait to rush out immediately and strangle Zhang Cai's bastard on the spot.
