The East Palace has been established, and even the emperor has crowned the newly baked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince early, which is naturally the biggest topic of heated discussion among the people, and other things have to be reared. But for many officials, it is also a top priority to catch the flaws suddenly exposed by the celebrant and chase and beat them, but the matter of the East Palace attendants thrown by the emperor has also attracted the attention of many people.

What a temptation it is to let your children and grandchildren stand on the side of the future Son of Heaven early, so that people can remember their names?

After all, although it is not uncommon for the second or even the third generation of officials to be in this dynasty, it is not a common practice. Even if the founding of the country is noble, it is always the wind and rain that falls, and now the home of the founding heroes has long been scattered into the climate, but it is the old ancestor of Ge Yong, who resigned from the title, has passed down this vein after wind and rain, and it is still brilliant.

Who made the Ge family really talented in the imperial examination?

As for the children and grandchildren of the old monk Shangshu's family returning home in the field, it was simply too common. And if the imperial examination fails, you can only be glenyin, but the descendants of the eunuchs of Enyin are only wandering around the magistrates at the top, and it is impossible to be a five-rank in the center, which is almost an iron law. Therefore, many people were very moved when they heard about this kind of thing in the East Palace.

It wasn't until the six halls of Guozijian were assigned to the number of attendants in the East Palace in turn, and the quota was determined by the examination and selection, and countless people were dumbfounded, especially when people heard about the person who presided over the examination, it was even more shattered.

As the leader of the king of Jiangdu, the former supervisor of the Guozi Prison, Xu Heikui, was transferred to the post of Changshi of the king of Jiangdu, assisting the king of Jiangdu in the examination and selection of the prison field, as for the question...... It turned out to be the young His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the East Palace himself!

"Oh, everyone says that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is talented and intelligent, and this is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's advice to the Emperor?"

In the straight room by the river in the outer imperial city, Chu Kuan, who was recuperating from his illness, listened to Lu Chan talk about these things recently, with a moist soft towel on his head, his face looked sallow, and he couldn't help but ponder when he was haggard. However, he did not give Lu Chan any advice, but said lightly: "The idea proposed by Zhang Shou was personally implemented by His Royal Highness the Prince, and the emperor nodded again, hehe......"

"Now even if the lecturers are on duty in the East Palace, it is difficult to say whether these lecturers can be compared to a Zhang Shou when they are added together! Anyway, there is no such talent in the celebrant eunuch, and some people say that Ciqing Palace does not need eunuchs who can read and write, and now Ciqing Palace simply does not need a single eunuch, they should also be satisfied, right? ”

"Old Ancestor, if you are disheartened, then it will really be over!"

Lu Chan was finally so shocked that he shuddered, and knelt down directly on the floor in front of the bed: "In just a few days since you were away, the celebrant has already become a mess, all of them are forming gangs and gangs in tandem with each other, maybe I am thinking that you will vacate the seat of the palm print, and even talking in front of me is yin and yang!" Ancestor, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not had a powerful person around him before......"

This is to say that the eldest prince and the second prince have always been the strongest candidates in the East Palace, so the celebrant took precautions early and put high-quality newcomers around them - although in terms of the virtue of the eldest prince and the second prince, the carefully selected people did not stand out, but were overshadowed by some villains, but it was better than the third prince and the fourth prince who did not release people!

"Now is the time for internal and external troubles, don't think about fighting His Royal Highness the Prince."

Chu Kuan smiled and said calmly: "There is a Liu Feng, not to mention other people in the palace, it is me, in the minds of the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince, I may also have ill intentions." Whoever wants to jump up and down is stupid! Of course, if you want to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I can help you out. ”

"No, no, no!" Even if Lu Chan really wanted to be close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he didn't dare to accept Chu Kuan's words at all, not only did he not dare to accept it, but he didn't even dare to cross the line anymore, and after staying for a while, he hurriedly ran away and retreated.

As soon as he left, Chu Kuan casually threw the soft towel on his forehead, then got out of bed and wrung the soft towel to wipe his face, and after a while, the sallow color on his face disappeared, replaced by a healthy ruddyness.

As many people, including Lu Chan, speculated, in addition to his physical defects, he has practiced martial arts and fitness since he was a child, and his body is better than that of the emperor, and he is not sick at all. As for the sallow face or the haggard face, it is easy to disguise it.

Even if he has a pulse, he can adjust the medicine at will, or use his own luck to cover up the past.

Fortunately, the emperor didn't bother to question whether he was a real illness or a fake disease, and directly sent a young medical officer from the Tai Hospital to send a large package of medicinal materials from ginseng, deer antler, Ganoderma lucidum, Shou Wu, etc., and also told him not to think nonsense, the Queen Mother sent Yuquan to send medicine twice, but Yuquan did not mean to take his pulse at all. As for the rest of my colleagues, it's even easier to deal with.

Now that the crown prince has been established and the East Palace is electing people, the focus of care of those celebrant supervisors has long been deviated, and they are even busy with infighting, completely forgetting that there is already a group of wolves eyeing them outside.

Thinking of this, he squinted his eyes slightly, and when he heard a squirming movement, he immediately stretched his brows as soon as he frowned, but he leaned back comfortably, and said neatly: "How come Hua Qiye has time to come and see me as an idler?" ”

"Of course, I'm ordered to see if you're pretending to be sick or if you're really sick." Hua Qi appeared in front of Chu Kuan silently, seeing that people were not dodging or dodging, and his face was leaning there leisurely and freely, and he didn't mean to pretend to be sick, so he stood in front of the bed angrily, clasped his hands and said, "What, do you want to lure some restless people in the celebrant eunuch to jump out, and then pinch the fire extinguisher?" ”

"Do you know that Wang Jie's recital has already arrived at the General Administration Department before? He is a well-known strength, and a large number of science and Taoist officials followed, and now the impeachment of the celebrant is like a snowflake, plus the minister's, it won't be long before the celebrant will really become a rat on the street, and everyone shouts and beats? ”

"Shout it." Chu Kuan smiled and said disapprerovingly, "How much authority does the celebrant have, others don't know, don't you know?" It's just a house slave, but many people want more. Those good halls have existed for too long, and those people may have been a little compassionate at first, but over time they have deteriorated. ”

"Just like those places in the outer city that do some despicable deeds under the banner of Shantang, those Shantang really only teach loyalty? Hehe, probably more is to teach allegiance to the celebrant priest! Hua Qiye, do you know that there used to be a waiting attendant in my straight room, and it was a toilet bowl that I casually called on a whim when I was walking around the outer imperial city casually. ”

The number of eunuchs in this dynasty is small, and the people who do things in the outer imperial city are all miscellaneous servants who have not been purified, and these miscellaneous servants are all orphans from the good hall of the celebrant eunuch, who come in to do things at the age of thirteen, and can ask to leave the palace at the age of twenty-five to make a living on their own. These are all people who have been eliminated in layers of screening, so Hua Qi couldn't help but be surprised when he heard that Chu Kuan actually used a handyman who was originally a toilet bowl as a long-term attendant.

"I didn't expect that Grandpa Chu would have a time of great mercy."

"I was quite idle, but I wasn't that idle. I just asked about the good hall where people came from, and you know that I don't care about this. He claimed to be literate and hyphenated, so I asked him to recite the Analects. As a result, the kid who looked thin and useless recited the Analects of Yan Yuan to me in one go. Because I was curious, I brought the person back as a long-term follower, and within a few days, Grandpa Xu came. ”

Knowing that Chu Kuan was talking about Xu Liu, the palm print of the former master of ceremonies, Hua Qi couldn't help but put away his initial banter. Since the emperor ascended the throne, the palm seal of the celebrant has changed three, Chu Kuan is the third, Xu Liu is the second, during which he has been in charge of the ceremonial supervisor for fifteen years, and has always been known for being cautious, and Chu Kuan has always gotten along very well, but listening to Chu Kuan's tone today, he clearly disagrees with Xu Liu.

"Father-in-law Xu said that the kid was arrogant and disrespectful in the inner study hall, so he was kicked out and poured into the toilet. His talent is good, but he has no longevity, he is not a good material, and he is not suitable for me to be a long-term follower. I've always given him three points, and of course I'm not going to let him take people back for the sake of a handyman. ”

Then the boy never appeared in the palace again. You know, he didn't say a word to me at all. There are several people around me, how can he be a newcomer to get close to me? ”

"But I can't see people alive or dead, but I have to track them down. After this investigation, I learned that although the inner study hall is known as teaching scriptures and history, and using the method of cultivating scholars to cultivate the future pillars of the celebrant and eunuch - although I think that the two words of these pillars to describe people like us are really too conceited - but once they enter the door, they will never get out. ”

"The kid who poured the toilet bowl was once the first in the inner study hall, but he had an idea in his heart, he didn't want to clean himself, he just wanted to do a good job of miscellaneous labor for ten years and then go out of the palace, live an ordinary life, and teach a son who reads. The result? Growing up in Shantang, reading and writing to the current kid, he dared to be so disloyal, so of course he was thrown to the toilet bowl to do miscellaneous work as a punishment. ”

"When I get involved so unintentionally, I probably suspect that the kid knows something, he just doesn't deserve to die, he deserves to die!"

The master of ceremonies is a little bit of the doorway, even if Hua Qi doesn't say that the door is clear, but he also knows seven or eighty percent. After all, I think he still wanted to train Ah Liu, who has a good talent, to become a royal attendant! As for the celebrant and eunuch who are now criticized by outsiders for being unfilial and disloyal, he also scoffs at it.

have already thrown away the children they can't afford to raise whether they are dead or alive, this kind of parents still have to be filial, are they crazy?

You can say that you can't afford to raise children, so you have to throw them away with tears in pain, but since you throw them away, it's not your parents, but the enemies who kill your children and women. Grace and righteousness are all light, I have never heard of the victim and filial piety to the perpetrator!

Therefore, Hua Qi sneered, and then said clearly: "In this way, you really want to take the opportunity to let those guys jump out and then catch them all?" Yes, then I'll go back and tell the emperor, let him punish you fiercely, it's best to demote you to three levels, I think there will be a group of demons dancing in the palace at that time. ”

"Then I'll thank you Seventh Master Hua for making it happen." Chu Kuan smiled, and then said casually, "I have seen all kinds of scenery in my life, and I really don't care about any power position for a long time." Since you said that you will be demoted to the third level, it is better to send me to the Qianqing Palace to sweep the floor, and it is just right to stuff the mouths of the people. ”

Hua Qi had already walked slowly towards the door, and when he heard this, he couldn't believe it. Glancing back at Chu Kuan, to make sure that the person did not have a fever and was talking nonsense, he frowned and stood for a while, and then said angrily: "I will bring your words, but if you want to act, don't go too far." ”

Seeing this guy who didn't go through the main gate leave, Chu Kuan rubbed his hands gently, knowing in his heart that all his chess moves had been played, but some had already floated on the water, and some were still sinking to the bottom, and the next thing was to wait.

Zhang Shou already has the right time and place, such as Confucius University scholars are still in a gray nose, although he has used Hong's move to idle chess, but in the end the effect is limited. As for those celebrities and scholars, although he has many ways to exert influence, it would be foolish to expect these people to be able to establish the same trust with the three princes as he was with Zhang Shou.

When we meet in the cold, this is the easiest stage to form deep friendships, even if we may not be able to share prosperity after suffering together in the future, then it will be a matter for the future. I have to say that Zhang Shou's luck is extremely good.

There were endless disputes outside, but the East Palace was full of books and calm, and as the third prince asked for ten days of marriage leave for Lu Sanlang, the senior brother, the emperor specially approved the name of the Jiuzhangtang guide, and gave everyone ten days of vacation for moving from the Guozijian to the outer city, Lu Sanlang was simply overjoyed, and simply pulled a lot of classmates and junior brothers to make a mockery for himself.

Seeing that Jiuzhangtang was simply thriving, and the people in Banshan Hall, who had lost their spirit after the previous class, heard that the emperor was also going to move Banshan Hall to the outer city public school, and the people who were still rushing to Banshan Hall also had a place as an attendant of the East Palace exploded.

If Zhang Da was finally able to get off the ground after being beaten, he raised his arms and brought a group of people to Zhang Shou, but some people preferred to switch to Guozijian Liutang. As for the nobles and officials who originally planned to send their children and grandchildren to the Mid-Levels Hall, they were in a dilemma.

And Zhang Shou, who is rare and steals ten days of leisure-after all, the public school is full of energy, and Lu Juan, who is distracted but still in good spirits, has no intention of fighting for power with others at all-he was still a little curious about how Zhu Ying went to meet the girl on the list of concubines, but Zhu Ying would rather ask the Hong family to accompany him than let him care, so he simply gave Ah Liu a task and stared Zhang Chen to death.

As for himself, of course, he had to be a good student, accompanying his teachers Ge Yong and Qi Chu to meet with astronomical talents from all walks of life who came to Beijing, and he was dizzy from being bombarded by various stars, and he had to work hard to learn all kinds of astronomical common sense in these years.

God is pitiful, he is probably more proficient in the names of the constellations of galaxies and star clusters, these twenty-eight things and the like, he remembers the names, and it is very good to distinguish the stars clearly, and now he has to help Ge Yong improve the calculation method...... He's really tricky.

After three or four days, it was the happiest day in Lu Sanlang's life, the cave room flower candle Xiao Dengke! When Zhang Shou arrived at Lu's house with a congratulatory gift on this day, Lu Dalang stepped forward to salute and said the instructions that his father had prepared a long time ago.

"My father said, I must invite Master Zhang to sit as the chief today!"
