Of course, not everyone can wear official uniforms, let alone usurp their ranks. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info but there are three exceptions here, which have become a customary system in the Ming Dynasty.
One is the internal officials. Eunuchs also have ranks, but because they are people around the emperor, there are many eunuchs who are the leaders of the four grades who give python robes. The eunuchs and young eunuchs below will also wear more and more according to their identities after seeing too much, and the emperor will not mind such trivial matters.
The second is the speech officer. Ke Daoyan's official rank is extremely low, and his power is very great. The core logic of this kind of small and broad design is: Anyway, your official rank is small, and there is no pity to lose it, so make bold statements. However, because of the high risk factor and the high nobility, the official was also allowed to skip the level of wear. Seventh-rank officials can wear five-rank uniforms and participate in court meetings.
Finally, there is the Imperial Doctor. The imperial doctor belongs to the civil official system, but because of the particularity of often going in and out of the Ouchi, it is customary for someone like Xu Xiaole to wear a skip level. Few people care about the rank of the imperial doctor, because it has little to do with the Chaogang Sheji.
If the above is investigated, Shen Yuan's envoy can also be explained by this "convention", and at most he is warned that the next is not an example. Of course, no one will take this kind of warning seriously, otherwise will you really ask Buyi to treat the emperor next time? The face of the entire court was disgraced.
With the announcement of the official document of the Governor's Mansion, the entire Tai Hospital is full of mourning, who is willing to go to a place like Jiubian. Datong, in particular, is still fighting against the Warats. The sword has no eyes, what if his little life is left there? However, the official documents of the Governor's Office were issued through formal procedures, and there was no way to disobey them, so they could only obediently accept the election.
As a place without secrets, rumors have always been faster than official documents. Xu Xiaole also found that there were people around him who were full of hostility towards him, and it was obvious that the news of his death in front of His Majesty the Emperor had spread. As early as when the Shen Yuan envoy advised him to "do it for himself", he guessed that he was going to be angry, and fled home non-stop.
When Xu Xiaole returned home, he saw his uncle Xu Youzhen reading a book in the yard.
The two looked at each other, both of them were a little surprised, and said in unison: "Came back so early?" ”
Gao Ruonan heard the movement, came out of the kitchen, and said to Xu Xiaole: "Are you eating at home at noon?" ”
Xu Xiaole didn't hear the estrangement in Gao Ruonan's voice, and said as before: "Eat, I can only eat at home, I'm afraid I won't be able to go out these days." ”
Xu Youzhen said strangely: "What did you do to hurt the heavens and reason?" I have to wait for my uncle and my official to Zaifu, and then you can go to the fish and meat town. ”
Xu Xiaole was not in the mood to be amused, so he pouted and told him about entering the palace to see a doctor for the prince, and of course he did not miss the reaction of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.
After Xu Youzhen listened, her brows tightened, and the book in her hand was unfolded and rolled up, and then unfolded again, as if she had encountered something very big.
Xu Xiaole said: "Uncle, why do you look so difficult?" Why don't I just hide for a few days? ”
Xu Youzhen said: "How can it be so simple? You see, this matter looks like His Majesty wants to give you some color to see, but look at it from another angle: you have just cured the illness of the prince, and Your Majesty also knows that you are the only imperial doctor in the Tai Hospital who can massage. Those internal officials are not angry, and learning is equivalent to not learning. You said that at this time, how could His Majesty rest assured that you would leave Jingshi? ”
Xu Xiaole changed his mind, if he left, and the son of the world became ill again, wouldn't he have to take the risk of taking medicine? He exclaimed, "Hey, Uncle has a point! ”
Xu Youzhen twisted his beard and said, "The people in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies seem to be more on the emperor's side." ”
Xu Xiaole thought about it with Xu Youzhen's train of thought, and said, "Yes, the biggest thing now is to change the crown prince." If the prince really has a priority, the crown prince's position will be secure. ”
The biggest advantage of massage is that you don't need to take medicine. Xu Xiaole suddenly thought of Brother Gu Jiabao, who was almost poisoned, and shuddered: Three points of poison in the medicine are naturally not enough to make people choke on food, but I am afraid that only three points of the medicine are not poisonous.
In this case, which father dares to let his son take medicine?
Xu Xiaole said: "Your Majesty can't even trust the people around you?" ”
Xu Youzhen asked rhetorically: "How many people around Your Majesty are henchmen?" How many people are yang and yin? How many people are loyal to their hearts and minds? And how many people are secretly pregnant? ”
As soon as Xu Xiaole heard the last "secretly pregnant with a ghost fetus", he thought of Cao Jixiang. The eunuch brought himself into the palace to see the emperor, and he looked like a loyal minister, and if he really wanted to open it to see, he was afraid that there would be a bag of bad water in his stomach. He didn't know why he had such a prejudice against this eunuch. If he discriminates against the disabled, Ruan's husband and Wu Xiaoyu give him a very good impression.
Xu Youzhen said: "If I were you, I would rather go to Datong for temporary refuge." ”
Xu Xiaole said unhappily: "If you want to go, I'm going back to Suzhou, why are you going to Datong." ”
Xu Youzhen said: "It's okay for you to go back to Suzhou, but the future is completely gone." If you go to Datong, you will always have an official body. ”
Xu Xiaole said: "You all think it's a big deal to be an official, but I'm not uncommon. I still like to be alone, idle clouds and wild cranes, and in the future, I will follow my uncle and ancestor to ask for immortals, and it is good to be an immortal. ”
Xu Youzhen smiled: "Although I have some attainments in metaphysics, I don't believe that anyone can really become an immortal." Heaven is above, how can there be such a way? When he saw that Xu Xiaole was about to refute, he said again: "Your so-called immortals are either stunts or charlatans. The former can sincerely participate in the study, and the latter should stay away. ”
Xu Xiaole saw that Xu Youzhen had such a prejudice, and knew that it was useless to say anything, so he secretly said in his heart: You are not destined to meet my uncle and ancestor, and I won't say much to you. "No matter where I go, I still can't leave lately," he said. Mr. Sun's massage is not finished yet. ”
Xu Youzhen also doesn't attach much importance to medical skills, and said: "Follow fate, it's always good to save your life first." ”
Xu Xiaole felt that the uncle was a little alarmist, could anyone still come to plot against him? However, the incident in Suzhou has taught him a lesson, some people will not take human life seriously for the sake of small profits, not to mention that what is surging in the DPRK and China is now the battle for the position of the national reserve.
Xu Xiaole couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, do you say that it is possible to succeed in changing the prince?" ”
Xu Youzhen didn't answer and asked, "Why do you guess I came back so early?" ”
Xu Xiaole ha: "It turns out that you came back to hide from trouble!" ”
Xu Youzhen rolled up the book and knocked it in the palm of his hand, and said, "Let me tell you, no matter whether this thing is successful or not, no one can benefit." Whoever comes out to speak now will surely end up in a field that is not human inside and out. He looked up and sighed, "Fortunately, I can take the book home and compile it." ”
Xu Xiaole saw that Xu Youzhen said terriblely, and secretly wondered in his heart: Aren't there still pillars of the country such as Yu Shaobao and Chen Fangzhou Gong in the DPRK? It's like an undercurrent. (To be continued.) )
