Chapter 500: The New Official Takes Office (13th Update)
The main responsibility of the Zhan Mansion in the Ming Dynasty was to unify the political affairs of the government, the fang, and the bureau to guide the prince, and it belonged to the same compilation and academic system as the Hanlin Academy, but because the Zhan Mansion was mostly responsible for the daily affairs of the queen and the prince, the Zhan Mansion was most affected by the power of foreign relatives, and most of the officials in the court came from here.
The officials in the Zhan Mansion can basically be divided into upper teachers and lower attendants, that is, the middle and upper officials in the Zhan Mansion are the academic officials from Hanlin, and the middle and lower levels are the attendant officials who take care of the prince's daily life.
By the time Zhu Houzhao was eight years old in the twelfth year of Hongzhi, except for the eunuchs, the rest of the officials in the East Palace basically became a party of relatives.
Shen Xi, the right Chunfang right Zhongyun, basically belongs to the position between the upper and lower officials of the Zhan Mansion, and he has to follow the prince on weekdays, play the duty of care and supervision, and be responsible for recording daily life and accompanying reading, which makes Shen Xi's situation extremely embarrassing.
Strictly speaking, Shen Xi is not the prince's husband, he has no authority to persuade and teach the prince, nor does he have the right to accompany the prince to play daily, he wants to use his own methods to guide the future son of heaven, basically he is powerless.
Nowadays, the heirlooms who have been inserted by relatives and a party in the East Palace are basically flatterers, and they are extremely flattering to Zhu Houzhao, the little master, and have developed Zhu Houzhao's very bad behavior habits, which makes Zhu Houzhao playful and selfish.
On June 18, Shen Xi, the right Chunfang right of the Zhan Shifu who was in the sixth grade, took office.
In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the residence of the prince is in the Zhufang Hall between the Donghua Gate and the Wenhua Gate, to the north is the Neijinshui River that flows out from the Wenyuan Pavilion, there are three white stone bridges on the river, and there are three glazed doors to the north of the bridge, commonly known as the three gates.
The Ming Dynasty was destroyed by fire in the tenth year of Jiaqing, and later rebuilt a prince's palace on the basis of the Zhufang Palace, renamed Ciqing Palace, which was also the place where the Qing Dynasty lived in the "South Three".
Shen Xi's daily office is in the Youchunfang of Zhan Shifu, but except for a few times to hold meetings or prepare copywriting, he actually does not need to go to Youchunfang, because his daily work is in the Zhufang Palace, holding a pen and paper in his hand, and recording the prince's daily life at any time, which is where his duty lies.
Theoretically speaking, Shen Xi is now running errands with the prince, but he can't behave too much, no matter what the prince does, it has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't need to attract the prince's attention.
Shen Xi sometimes thinks that he is probably like a bystander to the prince's life, he can follow the prince no matter what he does, but he can't disturb the prince, and the prince doesn't have him at all.
This made Shen Xi feel very embarrassed.
Do you want to go in when the prince is taking a bath?
Do you want to follow the prince in when he goes out?
It's a headache!
Fortunately, the prince is still young now, and there is no problem with the palace maid, if the prince is a few years older, and he has to work in this position for a few more years, the prince is in front of the palace maid Hu Tiantian, and he has to record in the back, this kind of errand really makes him feel whimper.
Zhan Shifu, Wu Kuan is respected, Wu Kuan is sixty-four years old this year, is the champion of the Chenghua Eighth Year Examination Yuan and the Palace Examination, and now the official residence Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi, is a member of the third grade, and his status in the court is basically second only to Qiqing, and even the emperor and empress have to be polite when they see him.
Under Wu Kuan, there are two Shao Zhan Shi, who are the four products, and Wang Wei, a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, is also the Shao Zhan Shi of Zhan Shifu.
Further down, there is the left and right spring fang, each with a scholar, a left and right concubine, and a person from the left and right, and the official rank is the positive five grades.
The bachelors, concubines and moral edicts of the left and right Chunfang, in the Shuntianfu Township Examination, the Ministry of Rites will act as the chief examiner and the same examiner, the status is not low, if you act as the prince's lecturer, the status is more respectful, equivalent to the prince's husband.
Further down, there are two people on the left and right, that is, the current errand of Shen Xi.
Shen Xi is located in Youchunfang, and his direct boss is Youchunfang Youchun Fang's right moral edict Wang Hua. This person is not famous in history, but he is the champion of Chenghua in the seventeenth year, and his eldest son Shen Xi can be familiar with it closely, and he is a famous thinker, writer, philosopher and military strategist in the Ming Dynasty, and Wang Shouren, who is proficient in Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism.
Working with Wang Shouren's father, Shen Xi didn't expect it to be so coincidental.
Wang Hua was thirty-five years old, and Shen Xi was awarded the Hanlin revision, and now eighteen years have passed, but it is the right moral edict of the right Chunfang of the fifth grade, Shen Xi has only been in office for two months, and he has moved to the position of the right Zhongyun of the right Chunfang.
Wang Hua is a scholar in the end, he treats people friendly, and he usually does the duty of supervising the prince's learning, but because the prince is young and playful and naughty, in the state of Wang Hua, a good old man, the most he can do is to tell the prince what he should say, as for whether the prince listens or not, that's another matter.
Shen Xi handed over the official seal he received from the ministry, and then he performed his duties.
Going to the Fang Hall with him was Zuo Zhongyun Jin Gui, who belonged to the same class as him.
To say that Jin Gui is a person, Shen Xi, who has carefully studied the politics of the Hongzhi Dynasty, is no stranger...... Jin Gui is a three-year jinshi of Hongzhi, ranked third in the first class, and was awarded the Hanlin editor, he has been working in the Hanlin Academy and Zhan Shifu in the Hongzhi Dynasty, and after Zhu Houzhao succeeded to the throne, he had to be promoted to the Ministry of Rites, and he was one of the few people who had a bad relationship with Liu Jin but could save his body. In the ninth year of Zhengde, Jin Gui entered the cabinet as a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion and became a member of the Cabinet Auxiliary Political University.
The elder of the pavilion in the coming day now has the same official qualities as Shen Xi, but one is right Zhongyun and the other is left Zhongyun.
Jin Gui is not very old, now he is only thirty-five years old, thinking that he was admitted to the Jinshi at a young age, and he has been mixed in the two Qingshui Yamen of the Hanlin Academy and the Zhan Shifu for ten years, and the dullness and tastelessness of them are difficult for others to understand.
Shen Xi, as a junior, was a junior in the ninth year of Jin Gui, but now he has the same rank as Jin Gui, which makes Jin Gui feel that he can't hold his face, but this person is also open-minded, and he taught Shen Xi some experience as Zhongyun while laughing with Shen Xi.
Jin Gui became Zuo Zhongyun after the prince left the cabinet, and he was an experienced senior, and he was regarded as Shen Xi's introductory master.
“…… The most important thing is to record what the prince learns and says in his daily life, and His Majesty will often consult it, and use it to investigate the prince's knowledge. ”
Jin Gui meant, about the prince's usual nonsense, if you can't remember it, you can't remember it, but the content of learning must be done in every detail, and you must focus on it...... It can't go against what the speaker said, as for whether the prince has memorized or memorized it, it is especially necessary to record it, the emperor will check the prince's knowledge according to the records of the left and right Yunzhong, and everything that involves the emperor's copywriting is the top priority.
Jin Gui was very afraid that Shen Xi had just arrived, and he didn't know how to grasp the text scale of this kind of imperial copywriting, but he didn't know that because of the memory of his previous life, Shen Xi had more experience in grasping the scale of Emperor Hongzhi's preferences than him, and the previous few performances were just right, otherwise he would not have been promoted to the next level in just two months.
Shen Xi listened to Jin Gui for a long time, looked at the sky outside and saw that it was almost noon, and couldn't help asking, "It's not early, should it be over?" ”
Jin Gui sighed lightly: "Don't worry, the prince is recovering from a serious illness, His Majesty has authorized him to go to school in the afternoon, the prince has the habit of taking a nap, and after the prince wakes up, it is not too late for you and me to go over." ”
It's been more than a month since I've been sick, and I'm still not well, right?
Shen Xi can see that Zhu Youzhu and his wife's love for the prince is simply to the point of no return, perhaps Zhu Youzhu did not get his father's love when he was young, so he wanted to repay his wife and children with more love, not only to Queen Zhang from the beginning, but even to the prince is also doting.
However, from the perspective of work, the prince only reads after taking a nap, and Shen Xi's working hours are less than two hours a day, and it is a day of work and a day off, just record what the prince learns in the school, as for the prince's frolicking and playing on weekdays, don't bother, the emperor and the queen don't want to see it.
"Then does Your Majesty come and walk around from time to time?" Shen Xi asked.
Jin Gui smiled and shook his head: "Except for the prince who is seriously ill, His Majesty rarely comes to the East Palace. ”
Shen Xi nodded to show that he understood, the prince usually attended classes in the residence of the East Palace, but when the emperor inspected him, the prince had to go to the Wenhua Palace, which was after all the place where the prince gave lectures after leaving the cabinet.
"And how is the prince's studies?" Shen Xi continued to ask.
Jin Gui had a wry smile on his face, and from this smile, Shen Xi knew that the prince's knowledge was so-so.
Zhu Houzhao has been taught by famous teachers in the world since he was a child, and his husbands are all well-educated Confucians, all of whom are Jinshi and Hanlin backgrounds, and they are one-on-one to open a small stove, so they don't have to rely on consciousness like ordinary scholars who go to school since childhood.
Obviously, Zhu Houzhao has no interest in learning, he was only four months old and was made the crown prince, and no one has grabbed the throne with him so far, and in the past two years, Empress Zhang has not moved in her stomach except for giving birth to a princess who died early, and Emperor Hongzhi's body is not as good as before.
From ancient times to the present dynasties, Zhu Houzhao can be said to be the happiest and favored among the princes, the father ruled the Qingming Dynasty, leaving him a stable and stable country, and the court is full of consolidated ministers, even if he ignores the government and the country, he is worry-free. And he has no brothers and sisters to compete for favor since he was a child, and he can inherit the throne when he is a teenager, but because the growth conditions are too superior, he has developed a bad problem, otherwise with his intelligence, wit, and responsibility, he will definitely become a generation of Ming Jun and leave his name in history.
However, the prince is still young, Hongji was born in the fourth year, and he is only eight years old now, and the future is very plastic.
Shen Xi knows that the biggest difference from normal history is his own appearance, if he wants Zhu Houzhao to return to the right path and be a promising monarch who works hard, he can only guide him, otherwise Zhu Houzhao will still develop in the direction established by history.
But is it really that easy to bring back a willful and reckless prince?
"Who are the people around the prince?" Shen Xi thought for a long time and asked again.
Jin Gui couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
The newcomer You Zhongyun has a lot of questions, which he has expected a long time ago, the prince is a child, in fact, Shen Xi is not so big, in his opinion, or the teenager has enough curiosity. If someone else would not ask this, even if he did, he would not answer in detail.
"The most favored person around the prince is the old eunuch Liu Jin, you and I rarely get close to this person on weekdays, and they are not easy to get along!"
mentioned Liu Jin, Jin Gui had a little disgust on his face, obviously the prince was messing around on weekdays, so he had Liu Jin's connivance.
Shen Xi continued to ask: "Is there a eunuch surnamed Shen next to the prince?" ”
This question made Jin Gui stunned for a moment, and finally he shook his head, saying that he had not heard of it.
