Chapter 108: Examiner Candidates

Jiang Yinglin Shangshu was simply clear, and asked the Son of Heaven to pay attention to the cabinet. lā

In addition, Shen Jing, a member of the Ministry of Sealing, asked the Son of Heaven to seal the concubine, or directly set up the prince.

As soon as the two of them were recitaled, the Son of Heaven immediately reacted, thinking that Jiang Yinglin was 'suspicious of the king's betrayal' and demoted him to the history of Shanxi Guangchang. The classic history is not an official who does not enter the stream, and it is not as good as the nine grades.

As for Shen Jing, who was in addition, he was demoted from a member of the Ministry of Officials Wailang (from the fifth grade) to a pedestrian (from the eighth grade).

The Son of Heaven made a decision so quickly, and used the means of demoting the official to seize the post, which was obviously very tough, telling the officials to dismiss the official if there was any more discussion about the establishment of the prince.

Ordinary officials are also interested here.

But after the two were demoted, Sun Rufa, the director of the Criminal Department, went up again and pleaded with the Son of Heaven to reinstate Jiang Yinglin and Shen Jingguan and praise them.

Jiang Yinglin and Shen Jing were just on the book, but Sun Rufa was demoted, which caused an uproar in Beijing.

Sun Rufa is a Jinshi in the eleventh year of Wanli, many in the same year, very famous, he was the first place in the Shuntian Mansion Examination that year, and he has been in Beijing for many years, and many scholars know him.

But these are not the reasons for the uproar, the reason is Sun Rufa's family background.

Sun Rufa's great-grandfather, Sun Sui, was the governor of Jiangxi during the Hongzhi period.

At that time, Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, intended to rebel and summoned Sun Sui to the banquet with the order of the birthday banquet. At the birthday banquet, King Ning asked Sun Sui to rebel with him, and Sun Sui scolded the thief in the palace for the national death festival.

Because of this matter, Sun Sui was admired by scholars all over the world, and Sun Rufa, who was Sun Sui's great-grandson, was alienated from the Son of Heaven at this time and sought to establish the country, but was demoted by the Son of Heaven to any county lieutenant in distant Guangdong.

Is the Son of Heaven worthy of doing this, is Sun Sui who was the National Death Day back then?

Sun Sui just said a few words that should have been said, but the Son of Heaven actually demoted him. As the Son of Heaven for a woman (Concubine Zheng), don't you even want the country?

Therefore, not only the scholars were boiling all of a sudden, but even the officials were angry, and suddenly the officials were on fire, isn't it a black gauze hat?

I don't want it.

After Sun Rufa, dozens of officials carried explosives bags as if they were dying, asking the Son of Heaven to canonize the crown prince and establish the country as soon as possible.

And so it got a big deal.

Lin Yanchao passed by the General Administration Department on this day and saw a long queue of officials.

The officers of the team did not speak, everyone was silent,

Then, after handing the recital to the officials of the General Administration, several officials seriously kowtowed to the imperial city in the north, got up, and left with their heads held high.

A few years ago, when Zhang Juzheng was in power, because of such a thing as seizing affection, many officials were negligent, and they were disgraced by the court staff at the expense of the right to open the crime.

In the 100-year Great Rites Conference, 200 officials knelt in front of Zuo Shun and cried to Jiajing.

A thousand years ago, Confucius led a group of students to lobby among the princes to implement the Zhou rites.

There is a universal truth in the world, that is, the etiquette system, and no matter how high the imperial power is, it cannot be higher than the etiquette system.

Lin Yanchao watched the kung fu of a cup of tea, and then prepared to go to the Hanlin Academy.

Well, the matter of fighting for the country is no longer suitable for me. At present, Lin Yanchao should be in a public house, holding warm hands in his hands, and then drinking wolfberries to make tea.

Just as he was about to return to the yamen, Lin Yanchao saw Zhu Geng, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites.

"Brother Jin Ting!"

Zhu Geng smiled and said, "Brother Zonghai! I happened to be going to Hanlin Academy to find you, but I didn't expect to meet you here...... You're not going to be here too, are you? ”

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "How could Brother Jin Ting think so. ”

Zhu Geng said uneasily: "It's you who have changed, it's hard to say, the virtuous brother shocked the world back then, and today I met you in front of the General Administration Department, and the foolish brother couldn't help but sweat." ”

Lin Yanchao said: "Thank you Brother Jin Ting for your concern, but I don't plan to go up." ”

Zhu Geng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, these ministers are not afraid to be involved in order to fight for fame, but if I wait for it, it is not the body of a minister." ”

Lin Yanchao almost laughed when he heard this, we just like your attitude of hanging high and not caring about yourself, this is life.

Zhu Geng said again: "By the way, Zong Hai is looking for you to discuss something important this time, come to the Ministry of Rites and sit down." ”

"It's fine."

At that moment, Lin Yanchao came to the Ministry of Rites, Zhu Geng's public house.

After serving tea, Zhu Gengping retreated left and right and said, "Zong Hai, do you know that this time the Ministry of Rites will test the chief examiner?" ”

Lin Yanchao remembered what happened to Zhang Wei yesterday, and said with a smile: "Brother Jin Ting, do you have to recommend me to be the chief examiner of the examination?" ”..

Zhu Geng smiled, and then said, "Brother Fool does have this intention." ”

Lin Yanchao smiled when he heard this, and said solemnly: "What's going on?" This will test the main examination on behalf of the Son of Heaven to preside over the Hengwen ceremony, how many ministers ask for it but can't be, why didn't Brother Jin Ting make a plan himself. ”

Zhu Geng said: "Zonghai, you and I have been friends for many years, and I won't hide it from you, this time my brother is determined to win the examiner, and he said it before, if the foolish brother comes forward to compete with him for the position of the examiner, this is not the friendship of the same year." ”

Lin Yanchao thought to himself that it was no wonder that Zhang Wei did not come forward, both Zhang Wei, Zhu Geng, and Shen were always in the same year. Shen has always said that I want to compete for the position of the main examiner, and it will be difficult for them to come forward, otherwise the votes will be thinned.

Lin Yanchao said: "So you pushed me out to fight with him?" How good is this, isn't my brother going to blame me? ”

Zhu Geng said with a smile: "This is not going to be, originally I didn't compete with Brother Shouwu in the same year, and he must be nine out of ten when he wins the examiner this time." But he didn't expect Shen Zongbo to clearly oppose Brother Shouwu as the examiner, so the matter was suspended. ”

"So a few of us discussed, in addition to Brother Shoulder I will recommend Zong Hai you, Zong Hai Although you have little qualifications, you are very prestigious among the clear streams, and the three yuan and the first are the Heavenly Sect, if Brother Shoulder Wu can't be the main examiner, then you will make up for it. My brother also agreed to this matter. ”

Lin Yanchao suddenly dared to love that he was running away.

Zhu Geng seemed to know Lin Yanchao's thoughts, and immediately said: "Brother Zonghai, we are not pulling you to make up the numbers, Shen Zongbo is very respected by the Son of Heaven, if he really opposes Shoulder Wu as the main examiner, then even if Yuan Fu intercedes for Shoulder Wu in front of the Son of Heaven, it is useless." So it's an opportunity for you. ”

Lin Yanchao thought to himself that even if this matter didn't work out, he wouldn't have a loss, but he said: "But the junior brother is in Hanyuan this time, and he pays equal attention to promoting Jingyi and asking questions, and His Majesty has not responded to this matter for a long time, and it seems that there is little hope." If His Majesty doesn't allow it, how can I be the examiner? ”

Of course, Zhu Geng knew this, but they now had no other candidate besides Lin Yanchao, so they could only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, so he said: "Zong Hai, you don't have to worry, according to Brother Yu, you are the Sacred Heart's expectations." ”

Lin Yanchao then nodded and said, "It's okay, then thank Brother Jin Ting for your kindness." ”
