Chapter 492: The House Exam
On the second day after the Hanlin Academy was locked, the edict was issued, and five new ministers were worshiped at one time, so that there were a total of eight ministers in the political hall.
Prime Minister Fan Zhen did not move, and the second ministers Li Qiong, Li Gu, Wang Pu, Wei Renpu, Wu Tingzuo, Li Yun, and Li Zhongyi gathered in the political hall for a while, and it was not lively.
Among the eight ministers, it is worth mentioning three people: Wang Pu, Wu Tingzuo and Li Yun.
Wang Pu was originally the prime minister of the political hall, but later because he was too selfish, he was demoted by Chai Rong to be a privy envoy, and this time he was re-ascended to the position of prime minister and killed back.
Wu Tingzuo, originally Zhou Taizu Guo Wei was the deputy commander of the Yanei next to Guo Wei, after Guo Wei ascended the throne and became the emperor, this official Yun Hengtong, first served as the imperial city envoy, and then transferred to Yunzhou Assassin History. After Chai Rong took over, Wu Tingzuo's official fortunes continued to flourish, and he actually ascended to the Xuanhui Southern Court and Xijing to stay in Xijing, and sentenced Kaifeng to the government, and this time he directly entered the political hall.
Li Yun's original name was Li Rong, and after Chai Rong became emperor, he changed his name to Li Yun in order to avoid the word Rong. This public archery is outstanding, brave and brave, and has won the trust of Zhou Taizu. This Li Yun was originally the envoy of the Zhaoyi Army, the Taifu of the inspection school, and the Pingzhangshi of the Tongzhong Shumen, which is commonly known as the "envoy", and he is not a real minister of political affairs.
In terms of the position of military ministers, Chai Rong also made in-depth adjustments, Murong Yanzhao was the privy envoy, Zhao Kuangyin was promoted to the front of the palace, and Han Tong was the commander of the guards and pro-military divisions.
After the edict was issued, everyone in the capital knew a major event: although Li Zhongyi was promoted to the prime minister, in fact, he lost a large amount of real power.
Perhaps out of consideration for comforting Li Zhongyi, the imperial court made two arrangements. First: Let Li Zhongyi's eldest disciple Yang Lie be promoted to the commander of Yulin's right guard, but the station was changed to Huazhou, which is more than 200 miles away from Kaifeng City.
Second. Li Zhongyi returned to Kaifeng Mansion and was promoted to Kaifeng Mansion Yin. Crown Prince Chai Zongxun moved to Kaifeng Mu.
In the past, there was no name of Kaifeng Mu, Li Zhongyi knew in his heart that this was to appease him and reward him with a little local political power, so he made a name for Chai Zongxun.
To put it bluntly, Li Zhongyi, the so-called Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, is really not much different from the previous Quan Zhi Kaifeng Mansion. It's just a little better in name
Although there are eight phases in the political affairs hall, in fact, people with a discerning eye know that the lower the ranking, the more it is furnished.
At this point, the military power of Li Zhongyi, the famous commander of the Northern Expedition, was basically hollowed out, and the elite Yulin right guard was also transferred far away from Kaifeng City.
A soldierless sub-prime minister and Kaifeng Mansion Yin, for the imperial power of the Chai family. No longer a threat.
After the edict was promulgated, Li Zhongyi was carefree, and he was fortunate to be able to save his life now. Where will there be any struggle for power?
It's just that the news of Li Zhongyi's return to Kaifeng Mansion spread after it spread. His old subordinates rejoiced one by one. Overjoyed.
After Li Zhongyi's dismissal from the prefect of Kaifeng, he took over as the current second minister. Ngo Dinh Zuo.
This Wu Tingzuo relied on the favor of the first emperor and the present, and in the past, he didn't look down on Li Zhongyi, a nouveau riche. After he took over the power of Kaifeng Mansion, some of the old people who Li Zhongyi had reused before lost their authority one after another, and they were all put aside.
No, before Li Zhongyi took office, his old subordinate, Liu Jinshan, the judge of the left hall of Kaifeng Mansion, came to the door.
'Dong Weng has always been good? As soon as they met, Liu Jinshan saluted respectfully and greeted him affectionately.
"Guangqing, I really didn't expect that we would have a chance to work together again, haha." Li Zhongyi walked over with a smile, took Liu Jinshan's hand, looked at his appearance carefully, and sighed softly, "You have lost a lot of weight." ”
Liu Jinshan's nose was sour, he almost shed tears, and said in a trembling voice: "The old subordinates all want to kill you." ”
After Li Zhongyi led the army to the Northern Expedition, Liu Jinshan's old subordinates were like children without their mothers, and they were made miserable by Wu Tingzuo's bastard turtle grandson.
Li Zhongyi grabbed Liu Jinshan's hand, pressed him to the chair, and said with a smile: "I dragged you down, now it's okay, let's go!" ”
All the time? Liu Jinshan's mind was racing, and he immediately realized the profound connotation hidden by Li Zhongyi's words.
Now that Li Zhongyi has returned to Kaifeng Mansion, then, aren't Liu Jinshan and his old subordinates turning over and gaining power again?
Liu Jinshan was about to vomit bitterness, but saw Tang Shuyi coming with a tea tray. As Li Zhongyi's old subordinate, how could Liu Jinshan not know that among the Li Mansion, this lady is the most powerful and has always been in charge of the huge county mansion?
"Oh, Madame's broken." Liu Jinshan hurriedly stood up and waved his hand again and again, for fear of snubbing the lady in charge of the county mansion.
"Hehe, Lao Liu, sit down, sit down. You and I are called Shangguan subordinates, and in fact, I have always treated you as good friends. Li Zhongyi pressed Liu Jinshan back into the chair and nodded heavily at him.
Although there is no serious master mother in the county mansion for the time being, however, as a snake on the ground in Kaifeng, Liu Jinshan clearly knows that Tang Shuyi has a heavy weight in the Li family.
The so-called good family is what it is now, and Liu Jinshan's originally injured soul has been greatly healed.
Li Zhongyi greeted him in person, Tang Shuyi served tea, and Liu Jinshan's self-esteem was greatly satisfied.
Although Liu Jinshan has not done much as an official, his experience in the market is extremely rich.
In Liu Jianshan's opinion, Shangguan is willing to spend so much effort to treat him preferentially, even if it is deliberately put on a show, which just proves the importance he attaches to him.
The rules in the officialdom are strict, the hierarchy is strict, and the officials are crushed to death at the first level, how many officials will put on such an enthusiastic show with their subordinates?
The answer is self-explanatory!
Liu Jinshan was extremely moved, tasted the tea soup served by Tang Shuyi, and said with sparkling eyes: "You are back, everyone also has a backbone, others will talk about him, and the student is willing to serve the dead." ”
Li Zhongyi is a person who understands, and Liu Jinshan's so-called students do not refer to the relationship between students and teachers, but the humble title between the disciple and the backer.
Liu Jinshan's self-humility reminded Li Zhongyi of one thing, perhaps he wanted to give Chai Rong, who was seriously ill, a happy and auspicious blessing. The imperial court has recently released rumors that it intends to reopen the imperial examination next year.
Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There is the harassment of the Khitan in the north, and the clamping of Tang, Shu and other countries in the south. Although there is a move to select scholars through the imperial examination, it has not been institutionalized.
From the first year of Guangshun when Zhou Taizu ascended the throne to the current sixth year of Xiande, in these nine years, the entire empire has only opened Enke once, and there are only nineteen Jinshi in the middle.
The Great Zhou Dynasty had only been established for a few years, and the martial arts group still held huge authority, and they did not want the literati to share too much power in their hands.
So, the last time I opened a course. There are only two subjects of Jinshi and Ming Jing, and Zhigongju turned out to be a privy envoy from a military general - Wang Jun.
According to Li Zhongyi's knowledge, the sources of today's imperial examination scholars are roughly divided into two kinds, one is a living disciple and the other is a township tribute. There are three levels of examinations, namely: state and county examinations, provincial examinations, and palace examinations.
The so-called apprentices are scholars who study in various schools. Among them, the top students in the Guozijian Middle School. In addition to directly participating in the provincial examination, the rest of the students need to take the state and county examinations first, and then they can participate in the provincial examinations hosted by the Ministry of Rites.
The so-called Xianggong refers to not studying in the academy. Students who want to take the exam. These people must first take the county examination, and after admission, they will take the state examination, and finally enter the provincial examination and the palace examination.
Generally speaking. Students who have passed the state examination and entered the provincial examination. Commonly known as lifting people.
Li Zhongyi asked himself if it was impossible to get Zhigongju or Tongzhigongju. This kind of beauty difference. However, he is the parent official of Kaifeng City, Tokyo, and the important task of presiding over the state examination, so he has an unshirkable responsibility.
"Guangqing, how many students are there in the school today?" Li Zhongyi picked up the teacup and asked Liu Jinshan with a smile.
Since the horror of the dormitory, Li Zhongyi, who almost lost his head, has changed his mentality greatly.
How can a husband be without power for a day?
Now, Li Zhongyi is jealous of the royal family, although he has not lost the control of Yulin's right guard, but he is transferred to Huazhou, a strong army of descendants, obviously far from quenching his thirst.
The east is not bright and the west is bright, and Li Zhongyi, who is temporarily unable to exert his military power, cannot sit still, so he can only use the only administrative authority at hand to see if he can pull up a Shilin team?
Previously, Li Zhongyi, who was fledgling, had always regarded himself as a lonely minister and a pure minister, but in fact, he fell into the dilemma of not being loved by civil officials and not being close to military generals.
Mao * Taizu once said that there is no party outside the party, imperial thought; There is no faction in the party, and there are all kinds of strange things!
The book says, gentleman, group but not party!
Li Zhongyi, who has walked through the death tightrope, just wants to complain about two words: deflated!
The reality is that the power to elect Jinshi is probably only in the hands of Fan Zhen.
In this case, Li Zhongyi can only hit the idea on the people who participated in the government examination. There are only eight words in the policy of taking scholars: those who follow it will take, and those who will go against it will fall.
Liu Jinshan also learned from Li Zhongyi, took a sip of tea soup, and thought about it for a while, and then introduced: "Among the school students, there are more than 500 students, most of whom are children of official families below the sixth grade. ”
Li Zhongyi nodded, and did not interject, Liu Jinshan explained the truth according to his memory: "The number of places in our school is limited, and most of these students have paid different levels of cultivation, or ten or so, or about five hundred. ”
Li Zhongyi thought to himself, isn't this the key middle school in later generations, and the school construction fee and the like?
Ahem, indiscriminate charges, it's really a long history!
However, Li Zhongyi is not old-fashioned, and although the government has financial allocation, it is not particularly sufficient.
Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water, relying on the government to eat the students, it is justified and beyond reproach!
"Well, Guangqing, if I'm not mistaken, you, the judge, should be in charge of the school?" Li Zhongyi knew that Liu Jinshan wanted to complain, but he deliberately made a mistake and diverted the topic.
