Metropolitan Inspectorate, duty room.

Yan Chengjin held today's newspaper in his hand.

The newspaper in the market was monopolized by Lao Wang's bookstore, and most of the page was the news of the School of Science.

The news from the DPRK and China came from the pickets of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

But now, Zheng Qian went to the yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in the capital to sit in the hall, and Yan Chengjin was the only one left in the duty room.

If he is not impeached, there will be no impeachment, so the newspaper is empty.

"I haven't played a seal for a long time, Your Majesty will definitely ask and recruit a new imperial history."

The selection of imperial history in the Ming Dynasty was mainly from the inferior scholars of Hanyuan.

Hanyuan is a talent pool.

Usually the six departments are selected first, and the remaining "leftovers are cold" after the picking, and then it is the turn of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the five temples to divide up.

When he came to Hanyuan, Yan Chengjin looked for his father's Qu Shen in the same year, asked for Hanlin's roster, and checked the file.

The cabinet and the scholars of Hanyuan will be assessed from time to time, and the people of Hanyuan will be assigned to the six departments, just like he and Wang Shouren did at the beginning.

You can see the assessment on the file.

"Please also ask Lord Qu to find these three people."

Hanlin Qu Shen glanced at the list, although these three people are not good at assessment, they are enough to enter the sixth, you are really good at picking!

Qu Shen smiled awkwardly and advised: "Virtuous nephew, if you change three more people, it's not good to hurt people." ”

If it weren't for the desperation, no one would want to go to the Metropolitan Inspectorate.

The Imperial Court is different from the six departments, the imperial history is the seven-grade official, and further up, it is the left and right imperial history of the fourth grade.

Between the seventh and fourth grades, it is empty, and if you want to be promoted, you will despair.

There should also be an official position called experience, but there are only two officials in this office, and Emperor Hongzhi has not sealed one until now in order to save money.

The six departments are different, from the second to the ninth grades, all of which have official positions.

And between the six departments, they can transfer each other to make up for the vacancy, but it is difficult to transfer the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate into the six departments.

Most importantly, the six ministries are easy to be elected to the cabinet and become cabinet scholars.

A scholar of the Hanlin Academy, who has the highest dream of not wanting to enter the cabinet and realize his ambitions.

"This official wants these three people."

The value room of Hanyuan is quite lively.

When the Hanlin heard that there were thieves in Baoding Mansion, they repeatedly returned from the thieves in vain, and they cursed Baoding Zhixian for inaction and wanted to impeach him.

Yan Chengjin is accustomed to the atmosphere of Hanyuan.

Walking into the courtyard, here is the duty room of Zhang Yuanzhen, a bachelor of Hanyuan.

The Hanyuan Bachelor is the department of the Hanlin Academy, and there is only one person.

If you want to ask for someone from Hanyuan, you need to get the consent of Zhang Yuanzhen first, and then transfer through the ministry, and the officials below the fourth rank are appointed, without going through Emperor Hongzhi.

In the duty room, a man sat upright in front of the bookcase, and his facial features revealed a righteous spirit that could not be concealed.

The craftsman is trimming his beard with a razor.

Zhang Yuanzhen is reading today's Di Bao, but it is a Di Bao issued by the General Affairs Department, not a Di Bao in the market.

Han Yuan knew about the affairs outside the capital, so he could write a bullet stamp.

"My lord, Lord Yan of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is here."

He raised his hand to signal to stop pruning, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "No! ”

What else can you do when you come to Han Yuan?

I heard that the Metropolitan Procuratorate has sent the imperial history to the border, and it must have come to ask for someone.

Yan Chengjin strode into the duty room: "Lord Zhang doesn't want to see the official, but for the sake of the two Lord Yang?" ”

He impeached Yang Yiqing and Yang Tinghe.

Zhang Yuanzhen often recited poems against the two, and drank in the house, and the relationship was the same...... Li Dongyang and Xie Qian are good friends.

Zhang Yuanzhen's face pulled slightly, and he said bluntly: "I don't know what you're talking about." ”

Yan Chengjin also wasted time: "This official wants these three people to be transferred to the Metropolitan Procuratorate as the imperial history, and ask Lord Zhang to hand over the roster to the ministry." ”

The roster was placed on the bookcase, Zhang Yuanzhen glanced at it lightly, and almost jumped up: "You are not harmful!" The official has arranged to go to the household department and the official department to observe the government. ”

"That official can only report to His Majesty truthfully, impeach Lord Zhang for laziness and dereliction of duty, and hinder the promotion of others."

Preferment?

Do you call this a promotion?

Zhang Yuanzhen was so dizzy with anger that his mouth trembled slightly: "You said that this official... Is this official lazy and derelict in his duties? ”

The old man came to Hanyuan every day before the end of the day!

Go to the household department and the official department, which one is not as good as the metropolitan procuratorate?

"You... You still want to impeach me, you wait...... The old man went to report to His Majesty! Zhang Yuanzhen was angry, put on his official hat and rushed out of the duty room.

Yan Chengjin stood in place in a daze.

He had no suspicion with Zhang Yuanzhen, but the matter of Shuangyang made Zhang Yuanzhen have a lot of opinions about him, so he was so angry.

With such a fiery temper, he won't live for a few years.

Canopy Palace,

Emperor Hongzhi wiped his hands with a handkerchief and opened the newly revised ancient books sent from the Wenhua Palace.

At this moment, Xiao Jing came in with Fuchen in his arms: "Your Majesty, Zhang Yuanzhen asked to see him, and he also brought a group of Hanlin, as if he was here to fight." ”

Soon, Zhang Yuanzhen walked into the hall and bowed slightly to Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty, Yan Chengjin wants Hanyuan to hand over the three people, otherwise, the ministers will be impeached." ”

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly, and he couldn't see such an injustice the most.

"What?"

"He asked the ministers for three people, for the imperial history of the Imperial Inspectorate, the ministers did not want to, Your Majesty, look at these three people, Xu Tianxi is the protégé of Lord Li Dongyang, quite talented, the minister has arranged the Ministry of Officials, the second person is Zhang Linyu, Wang Hua's protégé, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the third person is Jiang Yun, who has not observed the government, this person is ordinary."

Among the three people Yan Chengjin wanted, two of them were second-class jinshi.

After Emperor Hongzhi read it, he understood Yan Chengjin's mood, and it has always happened that various yamen have competed for candidates.

Even the twelve eunuchs in the palace are no exception.

"What about the wishes of these three?"

Zhang Yuanzhen bowed slightly: "Naturally, they don't want to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate." ”

There is another reason why it is difficult for Goshi to be promoted.

Imperial history is a work that offends people, and if you impeach the minister, the minister will not recommend it.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Xiao Jing: "The Imperial Court hasn't come to play the seal for a long time, right?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, there is only Yan Chengjin in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he doesn't write it...... Naturally, there are no bullets. Xiao Jing replied.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate that His Majesty said is naturally from the capital.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "Call Yan Chengjin." ”

The little eunuch went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to announce the decree, and there was no need to give two pieces of silver, and Yan Chengjin also knew what was going on.

But for the sake of prudence, he still took out two taels of silver.

The little eunuch truthfully whispered: "Your Majesty asked you to change three people." ”

Considering that His Majesty might be to blame, he chose to choose three slightly taller scum in a group of scum.

His Majesty still refuses to allow it.

"Minister Yan Chengjin has seen Your Majesty."

Emperor Hongzhi kept a straight face, for fear of giving this kid kind eyebrows and making him kick his nose in the face.

"I listened to Zhang Yuanzhen's performance, you can change three people."

Yan Chengjin carefully speculated, if he changed three people, what good bullet could he write.

"Your Majesty, do you know why the minister chose these three people?"

"Why?"

"Xu Tianxi's qualifications are dull, his questions are written in accordance with the rules, and it is difficult to make a difference when he goes to the ministry, Zhang Jiyu is not even proficient in arithmetic, but he looks at the government and household department, and Jiang Yun is even more bland.

And when the three of them were in Hanyuan, they all wrote bullet stamps. ”

Emperor Hongzhi turned his head slightly and cast an inquiring glance at Zhang Yuanzhen.

Zhang Yuanzhen was speechless for a while: "The minister is not clear." ”

Hanyuan is the yamen with the largest number of people in the capital, where can he take care of it, and some of them are recommended by the waiters.

"I'll take a look at it, you guys go back first."

Yan Chengjin raised his head slightly, wanting to ask the minister if he didn't know whether to say a word.

Seeing that Emperor Hongzhi had a heart in his heart, he looked at him as if he was warning.

I'll come back later.
