Soon it will be opened, but the students from the provinces have not arrived, and there are few people in Beijing who apply for the exam, Prince Gong is very anxious, and Wen Xiang has to agree to adopt his tough method.

So the queen mother of the two palaces was allowed to play, and issued a clear edict: "Decree to the Cabinet: The Prime Minister's National Affairs Yamen Performance, and the Zunyi University Scholar Wu Ren Performance:" Tongwenguan recruits astronomical arithmetic, please discuss it before you stop."

Tongwenguan recruits astronomical arithmetic, both by Zuo Zongtang and other previous performances, the minister in charge of the king carefully discussed, the same opinion, can no longer be involved, that is, on the current applicants, serious examination, sent to the museum for study.

Zhiren Yuanluo said: "The world is big, there is no lack of talent, such as astronomical arithmetic must be taught, learn from the side, there must be a master." ’

The scholars of the university must have known about it, so they immediately chose to set up a library in another place, and the Uren supervised and emphasized the recruitment of all members of the Tongwen Museum, and worked hard to achieve practical results. And the university scholars are all solid managers, and their ambitions must be successful, and they cannot be regarded as documents. ”

Waiting for the edict to be copied, the defenders were in an uproar, and some people said that Prince Gong was joking with Uren, and regarded state affairs as child's play, which was unseemly.

Of course, Uren himself is also ridiculous.

But there are a very small number of people who have special intentions, although they know that King Gong is joking, but since it is an edict, no one dares to openly say that it is a joke.

This bothered Woren a lot! Unexpectedly, Xu Tong really took the four words "seeking from the side" seriously, and after thinking about it, he felt ashamed, and his words must be sincere, no wonder Xu Tong believed it!

I shouldn't have said something that I wasn't sure of, so I couldn't refute Xu Tong at this moment.

Speaking of such words, Prince Gong still couldn't let him go, and immediately issued an edict: "Send the scholar Wu Ren to walk in the Prime Minister's National Affairs Yamen."

As the Prime Minister, the affairs of various countries are very important, and as a minister, when things are difficult, it is appropriate to do his best to appoint him as a deputy, how can he be involved in a little prevarication? It is needless to say what is played. ”

For the bachelor who is in charge of Zaifu, the wording of this edict is already very severe!

In addition, the previous edict that ordered the Japanese to choose a place to set up a museum, said that the establishment of the Tongwen Pavilion was a matter of the same museum, and looked at it together, and the fact that the number of people who participated in the recent examination for the Tongwen Museum was low, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Prince Gong's sparing could not spare the Japanese people, and it had the meaning of "killing the minister Liwei".

Things have evolved to this point, and it is no longer as simple as saying "the prime minister's yamen walking", but it is time to beg and return to the field!

There is no way to do it: Uren "hands the sign" and asks "facing the two palaces".

The Queen Mother of the Two Palaces naturally summoned her immediately, but it was Prince Gong who led her, and she knew that something was wrong, so she was discouraged first.

When the queen mother commanded to "get up and speak", he couldn't stand up, and the queen mother of the two palaces gave the old minister, and specially summoned the eunuch into the palace and helped him up.

"The two queen mothers see clearly," he said to the original intention of the face, "the ministers are restrained, and they are not familiar with foreign affairs." I implore you to revoke the order of the minister's 'Prime Minister's Yamen Walk'. ”

Before the empress dowager of the two palaces could speak, Prince Gong hurriedly said: "At this level, the edicts have been clearly declared. ”

Empress Dowager Cixi then said: "Zuo Zongtang, Zeng Guofan, and Li Hongzhang all said that they should set up a Tongwen Pavilion, they have been outside for many years and have seen a lot of things, since they all said so, the court can't help but listen." Now that the charter has been decided, and the foreign teachers have been hired, I can't say that it doesn't count, teaching foreigners to laugh at our **** big country, and doing things is like a child having fun. Do you think so? ”

He couldn't say "no", so he had to agree: "Yes!" But then he pleaded down, "However, the minister's energy is declining, and he is really unable to catch it when he walks in the prime minister's yamen." ”

"That's true." The Empress Dowager Ci'an couldn't bear it, and she had the heart to help him, but she didn't dare to make a strong claim, she looked at the Empress Dowager Cixi, and then looked at Prince Gong and asked, "Sixth Master, what do you see?" ”

Prince Gong replied slowly: "This was originally to take advantage of the old Cheng hope of the widow, advocate for the younger generations, and make a single heart and hard work." Uren is an important minister of the imperial court, and the daily affairs of the prime minister's yamen will naturally not be troublesome. It's just that at the moment when you want to make a big decision and make a big policy in foreign affairs, you have to ask the old man who is planning the country to say a word or two. Unless Wu Ren thinks that the Prime Minister's Yamen should not have it at all, otherwise, there is no need to resign from this mission if he says anything! ”

These words were so crowded that Wu Ren could not argue, and the Empress Dowager Ci'an was even more unable to praise it, so the Empress Dowager Cixi asked: "Wu Ren, have you heard Prince Gong's words?" ”

"Yes!" He agreed aggrievedly.

"I don't think you have to be stubborn! It's enough of it. The Empress Dowager Cixi said: "You are a person that the first emperor particularly appreciated, and you must always understand the hardships of the imperial court!" ”

He only said yes, and knelt down and withdrew.

Walking out of the courtyard of the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, thinking about it again, just now it was equivalent to having promised to accept the order in front of the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces, isn't it worse to meet than not to meet? If you don't see the face of the two palaces, you can continue to play and resign, and now there is nothing to say!

This thought was full of regret, and the footsteps were soft, but fortunately, the road was not far, and he entered the Yuehua Gate and slowly walked back to the Maoqin Palace.

Back in the palace, the Empress Dowager Cixi saw Ci'an's expression different, and hurriedly asked, "Sister, what's uncomfortable?" ”

The Empress Dowager Ci'an saw that she could see it, but she understood the psychology of Wuren better, and said: "Didn't my sister see it, he had something in his heart and couldn't say it?????? Alas! She shook her head, not knowing what to say.

"This group of roundabout masters, foreigners have bullied us, and the Qing Dynasty is about to die. Still ??????" The Empress Dowager Cixi still had a lot of criticisms of Wuren, but he was the first to be nominated and reused by the Empress Dowager Ci'an, so she couldn't bear it at the moment.

Of course, the Empress Dowager Cixi can also see that she doesn't pay much attention to the dispute between the old and the new, and only thinks that it is a good thing that the ministers are not in harmony with each other.

Summoned on this day, I thought that Wu Ren had already understood the hardships of the imperial court and would have to make peace with Prince Gong, but now I heard that he felt aggrieved, but I was afraid that he was still unwilling to go to the Prime Minister's Yamen, and it seemed that there would be trouble in the future.

He was indeed unwilling to go to the Prime Minister's Yamen. In the eyes of the defenders, all the actions of this yamen are deviant, so Wu Ren thinks that as long as he takes a step into this yamen, he will smash his own golden signboard and become a fake Taoism.

It just so happened that the day of the temple was coming. The day before the period, the emperor came to Shangxiang in person, and as a scholar, he had to go to the station as usual. (To be continued.) )
