Chapter 69: The Study of the Mind
It was very quiet in the study, Qian Yuan half-hung his head and squinted his eyes to quickly think about it in his heart, but the mystery in his heart was still not solved.
And Lu Shusheng looked at the face of this young man with great interest, he had seen a lot of talented Jinshi at a young age in the Hanlin Academy, but he had never seen such a person.
You must know that Yan Song and Xu Jie have both had the name of prodigies since they were children, and they have been repeatedly frustrated after entering the office, and they have become scheming and scheming for a long time.
Qian Yuan's most doubtful place is that in Lu Shusheng's narration, the relationship between Xu Jie and Xia Yan.
He asked tentatively: "Huating and Guixi are teachers and students?" ”
"Why do you ask?" Lu Shusheng was very surprised, "Xu Jie is a Jinshi in the second year of Jiajing, and he entered the Hanlin Academy as the editor, and was later demoted out of Beijing. ”
Qian Yuan grinned, "Then Guixi has the grace to support Huating?" ”
Lu Shusheng frowned, thought about it in his heart, and finally shook his head and said: "Xu Jie, who was demoted to the official of Yanping Mansion back then, was later promoted to the Tongzhi of Huangzhou Mansion, the deputy envoy of Zhejiang according to the inspection, and the deputy envoy of Jiangxi according to the inspection, which has little to do with Xia Yan. ”
"What about when you return to Beijing?"
"Xu Jie returned to Beijing and re-entered the Hanlin Academy as a waiter, and worshiped the Economic Bureau to wash the horse......" Lu Shusheng accentuated his tone, "That year, Prince Zhuang Jing came out of the cabinet. ”
Qian Yuan was stunned and immediately understood, the so-called Prince Zhuang Jing is the second son of Jiajing, Jiajing was made the prince in the eighteenth year, went out of the pavilion to study, and died of illness in the twenty-eighth year of Jiajing, and the prince Zhuang Jing.
In the bureaucratic system of the Ming Dynasty, the Zhan Mansion was the institution that had the most direct influence on the crown prince, and the Bureau of Economics was a subordinate agency of the Zhan Mansion.
And as the head of the cabinet, Xia Yan himself should not be involved with the prince, wasn't Xie Jin dead like this back then?
"So, Guixi and Huating don't have any dealings?"
"In the same court, naturally there are contacts, Xu Jie's later promotion to the son of the country to sacrifice wine, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, it is impossible not to Xia Guixi nodded." Lu Shusheng shook his head, "But Xu Jie's is not from Xia Guixi, and he doesn't have much to do." ”
Qian Yuan lamented in his heart, saying that among the twenty-four histories, "History of the Song Dynasty" and "History of the Ming Dynasty" are the most nonsense, and this is indeed the case!
Just when Qian Yuan fell silent, Lu Shusheng said leisurely: "Actually, there is another reason why your uncle and Xu Jie do not agree. ”
Glancing at Qian Yuan, who was confused, Lu Shusheng chuckled, "Why did the old man mention Nie Shuangjiang before?" ”
Qian Yuan felt a stirring in his heart, indeed, Xia Yan died, and Xu Jie's desire to integrate forces to take the position, what does this have to do with Nie Bao?
"Xu Jie's promotion from Yanping Mansion was extremely fast, and the person who helped him the most during this time was Tang Long, who was the servant of the Ministry at the time." Lu Shusheng talked about sex tonight, "Tang Long is a Confucian in Zhejiang, and he and Wang Yangming are close friends......"
"Mind Learning!" Qian Yuan blurted out.
The psychology of this period was the Ming Dynasty, and its influence ranged from hundreds of officials to the common people.
Qian Yuan, who is quite familiar with history, doesn't know much about Xinxue, but he knows that if he wants to become a professional, he will inevitably deal with Xinxue, not to mention the rest, his uncle is a student of Nie Bao, and Xu Wei, who wants to ask for calligraphy and painting, is also a Xinxue.
In fact, the "Ten Sons of Yuezhong", including Xu Wei and Shen Lian, are all the successors of Zhejiang Central School.
Lu Shusheng asked with a smile: "You asked Huating Guixi before, but now the old man asks you, what is the relationship between Nie Shuangjiang and Huating?" ”
"Of course, it is a teacher and a student, Shuangjiang Gong once served as the commander of Huating County...... Well, it's the fifteenth year of Zhengde, and Huating is the second year of Jiajing, and the time is also right, and he also studied Xinxue under the Shuangjiang Gongmen......"
"Hahaha!" Lu Shusheng got up with a long laugh and shook his head again.
Qian Yuan shuddered a little, were all the history books he read in his previous life fake?
"Nowadays, both the DPRK and the Central Government regard Xu Jie as Nie Shuangjiang's personal disciple, but everyone in Huating knows the truth, but Xu Jie is now in a high position, and everyone in the Heart Sect hopes that he can reach the top in one fell swoop......"
With Lu Shusheng's narration, the truth of thirty years ago gradually unfolded in front of Qian Yuan.
At that time, Xu Jie was a well-known prodigy in Songjiang Mansion, in the thirteenth year of Zhengde, Xu Jie, who was only fifteen years old, won the show, but because of filial piety, he missed the township test of Zhengde for 14 years.
In the fifteenth year of Zhengde, Nie Bao went to serve as the county commander of Huating, that is to say, Xu Jie's county examination did not go through Nie Bao's hands, and Xu Jie did not enter the county school but entered the government school, so the two of them could not be said to have a teacher-student relationship on the road to the imperial examination.
When he was at home and keeping filial piety, Xu Jie listened to Nie Bao's lectures with his classmates, but in fact, he didn't have deep contact, let alone Nie Bao's personal disciple.
"Looking back now, Xu Jie should have really started to study the study of mind when he was demoted to the Yanping Mansion and promoted the official, and he also specially built the Wanggong Temple." Lu Shusheng said slowly: "At that time, the influence of Xinxue in the DPRK and China was not small...... Hehe, Xu Huating is really clever, and you are a bit similar to Brother Yuan. ”
Is this a compliment?
Qian Yuan rolled his eyes, "What about after that?" ”
"After that?" Lu Shusheng pouted, "Of course, it is all the way up, of course, he has also reciprocated, and many of the talents recommended during his return to the court as a servant of the Ministry of Officials are interested in learning, and the most famous of them is the 'Erde'." ”
"Erde?"
"Cheng Wende, who went to Yuyao to seek advice from Wang Yangming, he was once demoted out of Beijing as a small county official, and later almost exactly the same as Xu Huating, the prince of the country supervised the wine, and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites was transferred to the waiter of the Ministry of Officials, and he was the chief examiner in this year's examination.
Although Lu Shusheng was strict with Qian Yuan, he also had a lot of expectations, and explained in detail: "There is another person who is Ouyang De, a scholar in the second year of Jiajing, and now he is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. ”
The corners of Qian Yuan's mouth twitched, he was so good at learning Niu Fork, there was a Xu Jie in the cabinet, and there were Nie Bao and Ouyang De in the six Shangshu...... No wonder Zhang Juzheng was so unpleasant to see the mind later!
"Many years ago, Nie Bao, Xu Jie, Cheng Wende, Ouyang De and others were in Lingji Palace, talking about 'To Conscience', which had a great influence, and Xu Jie called Nie Bao a teacher everywhere." Lu Shusheng sneered: "It's a pity, Xu Jie, this person is wise to protect his life, and he breaks his tail to survive......"
Qian Yuan's eyes rolled, and he asked tentatively: "In the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing, Shuangjiang Gong was imprisoned?" ”
"Not bad." Lu Shusheng said disdainfully: "Not to mention that your uncle made Xia Guixi angry because of this, Zhang Run, the secretary of the household department at the time, claimed that he was willing to guarantee Nie Shuangjiang with the lives of more than 100 members of his family, and the officials of the Department of Science and Technology even wrote a lot, but Xu Huating didn't say a word." ”
People belong to the king's eight, of course they won't take the lead...... This thought flashed through Qian Yuan's mind, and then he thought of it, but what does this have to do with his uncle?
