Chapter 1632: Saint Sacrifice
"The subordinate obeys the order, and he will not disappoint the adults!" Tu Yiying was slightly stunned at first, and then immediately handed it over.
He actually doesn't like this Li Shi, he usually relies on Qin Minglei's support, and he doesn't say disrespect to him, but sometimes he can drop the chain. Now let him elect a new warden, which is undoubtedly the result he wants.
Lin Haoran seemed to have made an insignificant decision, and said lightly to the officials present: "Although the main hall is presiding over the main hall, if you have any problems, you can also report to the main hall now." ”
Deliberations after the order is the practice of the various yamen.
The ceremonial department and the host and guest department are in charge of Lin Haoran, and the ancestral priest and the fine food department are in charge of Qin Minglei, so the officials of the ancestral priest and the fine food department can't help but secretly exchange glances, Lin Haoran already wants to exercise the power of acting for the main hall.
Lin Haoran's throat was itchy, but he coughed lightly.
He Bin, the guest of honor, stepped forward with a sense of comprehension and asked respectfully: "Lord Ministry, it has been more than half a month since the envoys of Nanyang arrived in Beijing, and their group has asked several times, but they don't know when they will be able to face the saint?" ”
If there is any important business of the Ministry of Rites in recent times, it is this group of Nanyang missions from Guangdong.
It's just that after the Nanyang mission arrived in Beijing, it has been arranged in the same hall, and the emperor not only did not summon him for a long time, but also did not have any regulations to explain it, so the Nanyang mission could only wait.
When the officials heard this, they all looked at Lin Haoran, and they also wanted to know when the emperor would be able to summon the Nanyang mission.
But if those people are urging, I'm afraid it's not all true. After all, the guild hall entertained them with good wine and meat every day, and also let the prostitutes of the Jiaofang Division go to perform the festival to cheer up, so that the turtles could be said to be happy.
The officials' hearts were like mirrors, and they guessed that it might not be the Nanyang Mission who was in a hurry, but this Lin Butang, but he deliberately asked He Bin to give him a reason to promote this matter in public.
Lin Haoran's face did not fluctuate, and he nodded lightly and said: "This matter is really not to be delayed, the main hall will discuss with the main hall when I turn around, and I will give you an answer in a few days!" ”
"Yes!" When He Bin saw that the goal had been achieved, he responded respectfully.
Lin Haoran had already cultivated the ability to be invisible, and it was impossible for people to easily see through his intentions, so he looked around at the officials present and asked, "Everyone, is there anything else?" ”
All the officials shook their heads, preparing to retire.
Tu Yiying, the priest of the ancestral hall, gritted his teeth, stepped forward and arched his hand: "Lord Ministry, the saint sacrifice is imminent, but I don't know who is more appropriate to go this year?" ”
Priest of the shrine, presiding over the sacrifice. This seems to be an idle department, but there are not many substantive affairs, and every ten emperors and the successive sacrifice days, they have to arrange personnel to go to various mausoleums to pay respects.
There are not many martial artists who can serve as the chief soldier, too many of them are in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the most common thing they do on weekdays is to help the emperor sacrifice the emperors and successes.
For example, Empress Xiaozhuang Rui sent Peng Chengbo Zhang Xiong to sacrifice on her death, Empress Xiaomu sent Guangning Bo Liu Yunzhong to sacrifice on her birthday, and Emperor Ren Xiaowen sent Cheng An Bo Guo Yingqian to sacrifice on her death.
In addition, there are festivals such as the Seiong Festival, and in April, the Confucius Festival is held.
After the death of the first master Confucius, he was buried in Qufu, Shandong, and his descendants were canonized by successive dynasties. Although he was not liked by Zhu Yuanzhang in the Ming Dynasty, his status declined compared with the previous dynasties, but the status of Confucius Sage was still transcendent.
Every year on the festival day, the imperial court will send a large number of officials to Shandong to make sacrifices. It's just that with the sacrifice of the emperor and the order is different, this candidate is served by the minister, and they are usually members of the imperial court.
Hey?
The officials immediately smelled a different smell, first glanced at Tu Yiying, who did not play according to the rules, in confusion, and then turned their heads to look at Lin Haoran, and also wanted to know what kind of response Lin Haoran would make.
Lin Haoran glanced at Tu Yiying deeply, and also didn't expect Tu Yiying to throw this matter out in public, but he only made a slight trade-off, and asked quietly: "Tu Langzhong, the year before last and last year, Yuan Ge Lao went?" ”
Although after Xu Jie came to power, he threw out the slogan of "common vote", but Xu Jie always tried to "support" Yuan Wei, first asked Yuan Wei to preside over the revision of "Xingdu Zhi", and even pushed the Confucius Festival to Yuan Wei.
It's just that going to Shandong to worship the Confucian saint is certainly beautiful, but the local officials all know that they have to do everything possible to drill into the capital, which is equivalent to staying away from the center of power, and the Confucius sacrifice has nothing to fish, but this is actually not a good errand.
The reason why things always fell on Yuan Wei was that Xu Jie wanted to take the opportunity to send Yuan Wei to the capital, but Yuan Wei couldn't shirk this matter.
Lin Haoran had a different idea about this arrangement, so he made a decision and said: "The saint sacrifice can't always bother Yuan Ge Lao!" Now the old assistant Yuan Ge Yuan Fu vote is proposed, which can be described as a thousand opportunities, and the headquarters thinks that this time it can be proposed to be replaced by Dong Shilang! ”
This move actually contains some selfish motives, Dong Fen is quite valued by the emperor, and he is also one of the "quasi-cabinet elders", and he is also the veteran left waiter of the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials. If he can take the opportunity to keep him out of the capital for some time, it will actually be beneficial to his father-in-law.
"The lower officials know!" Tu Yiying's face did not show any discoloration, and he responded respectfully.
The officials secretly exchanged glances, knowing that this matter was afraid of causing waves again. Not to mention that Lin Haoran is suspected of stretching his hand to the territory of thunder and thunder, and now he is electing the director and abandoning Yuan Wei, I am afraid that the issue of this candidate will cause disputes in the court.
Lin Haoran didn't take it seriously, and said lightly to the officials present: "If there is nothing else, then let's go back to their respective offices to get busy!" ”
The officials saluted respectfully to Lin Haoran, and then returned to their respective offices one after another.
It's just that this stone has been thrown, and things are destined to make waves, and the first to be hit is naturally the headquarters yamen.
The right waiter is in the office, and the detention room is signed.
Qin Minglei's face was gloomy, and he grabbed the tea cup on the table, but the hot tea overflowed, and some of the tea flowed onto the palm of his hand, causing him to immediately grin and exclaim.
"Lord Ministry, please stop your anger!" Liu Zhongda, the fine food chef, brought what had just happened to Qin Minglei, and seeing him react so much, he hurriedly persuaded him.
Song Minglei threw down the teacup, so hot that he hurriedly shook his hand, looked at a bench in front of him, and kicked it again in anger, but the bench did not move, and he covered his toes in pain and screamed.
The servant hurriedly stepped forward to support him, so that he did not fall to the ground, but the whole person began to be honest.
Song Minglei sat down on another bench and scolded angrily: "He really dares to meddle in anything!" This priest is in charge of me, why did he Lin Ruoyu stretch out a hand to come! ”
Liu Zhongda, who was in the fine food division, saw Qin Minglei so angry, and sighed secretly in his heart, but chose to remain silent.
Although what he said is correct, Lin Haoran is actually not excessive. After all, although their fine food division and ancestral priest belong to Qin Minglei, they are subordinate to the Ministry of Rites, and now Lin Haoran is presiding over the order on behalf of the main hall, and Tu Yiying throws things out, but he is able to meddle in the affairs of the ancestral priest.
