Chapter 121: Deliberations at Yude Palace (5/10)
Yude Palace was originally one of the six palaces in the west, and it was supposed to be the emperor's concubine, but because there are not many concubines in the emperor's current harem who are qualified to occupy a palace, and it is close to Changchun Palace, so from the fourteenth year of Wanli, the emperor began to strike the dynasty, and it replaced the Qianqing Palace to become the emperor's daily handling of government affairs, because he was in the harem.

Therefore, for the ministers, it is natural that they are not allowed to enter the edict, and Zhu Yijun's ears are therefore less noisy, whenever there is a need to discuss with the courtiers, he will summon the relevant courtiers into the Yude Palace to meet, and after the discussion, the edict cabinet will be ordered, thus bypassing the court meeting and creating a unique government affairs handling model of the Wanli Dynasty.
In this way, the most people who come to the cabinet are undoubtedly the three auxiliary ministers of the cabinet, after all, most of the time, the emperor's decrees and edicts are issued through the cabinet.
"Gentlemen, now that Sun Xian is in prison, the Dongchang is vacant, and I will order the eunuch Chen Ju to supervise the Dongchang, what are you doing?"
Early in the morning, the emperor announced the audience of several ministers and spoke.
"Yes!"
Zhang Wei and Wang Xijue, Shen always glanced at each other, then pondered for a moment and spoke.
Although the appointment of the governor of Dongchang is a matter of the dictatorship of the Son of Heaven, it is still necessary to make a cabinet voice as usual, after all, the governor of Dongchang is a major event, and if the courtiers rebound violently, the emperor's face will not look good.
But this is just a procedure, basically the cabinet will not overstep its authority to open the beak of this kind of thing, not to mention Chen Ju's personality, Zhang Wei has heard of it, born next to the Empress Dowager Li, square temperament, honest and honest, the most famous is the eleventh year of Wanli, Chen Ju was ordered to escort Zhu Tingtang, the general of Fengguo, who was dismissed from the official title, to Fengyang high wall imprisonment, low-key and quiet along the way, not disturbing the official and not harming the people, and the stroke in the court is very good.
It's just a pity that he is not liked by the emperor, and now that he is the commander of the East Factory, presumably the East Factory will be able to calm down for a while.
So, the matter of the Admiral of Dongchang was decided!
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Wei stepped forward and said.
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites has repeatedly written about the emperor's eldest son, the King of Baoding County, who has been out of the pavilion for half a year, but His Majesty has never shown the matter of reading, and the Ministry of Rites has already had this tweet, and the people will be selected to play, please Your Majesty to read it!"
After that, he calmly took out a piece of music from his sleeve and handed it over.
Zhu Yijun opened it and took a look, and the corners of his eyes twitched.
This matter should have been done a long time ago, but for various reasons, he has been dragging it out and not giving it a reply to the Ministry of Rites, it seems that this time it can't be delayed, otherwise, a mere piece of music should be sent to the celebrant first, how can he labor Zhang Wei, the first assistant, personally send it over.
Just looking at the list prepared by the Ministry of Rites, he was helpless.
Let's not talk about anything else, just looking at this list, not only all the auxiliary ministers of the cabinet are included, but even Shen Li, who has not yet arrived, has brought it, and the rest are all Hanlin Qingliu, which is completely arranged in accordance with the etiquette of the prince when he leaves the cabinet to study.
You must know that the scholars of the Wenhua Palace in the cabinet are nominally specially set up for the prince to give lectures, so until now, almost all the scholars in the cabinet have to take turns to give lectures to the prince.
The intention of these ministers to arrange it like this can be imagined, which is also the reason why Zhu Yijun has not agreed, sighed, he turned the song over, and said.
"I need to think about this matter carefully, and I won't leave it for now!"
Obviously, the emperor was still not satisfied, but it was a pity that this time Zhang Wei did not receive the order as usual, but stepped forward and said.
"Your Majesty, don't delay it, now that the eldest son of the emperor has been out of the cabinet for nearly half a year, if you can still say that the New Year is approaching, but now you have to set a candidate for teaching etiquette!"
From the time Zhu Changluo came out of the cabinet, the reason given by the emperor was that the New Year was approaching, and he would talk about it after the year, and now it was March, and it couldn't be delayed no matter what......
Wang Xijue also stepped forward to follow up and spoke.
"Your Majesty, the old minister also thinks so, now His Royal Highness is thirteen, from ancient times to the present, how can there be a child who is thirteen and still does not study?"
On the contrary, Shen Yiyi, who has always supported Zhu Changluo, remained strangely silent this time.
However, the opinions of the two auxiliary ministers are enough, and Zhu Yijun also realizes that it is not appropriate to delay it any longer, but if this list is approved, wouldn't it be like the world has revealed Zhu Changluo's identity as the prince?
Zhu Yijun shook his head, but he remembered what he heard in Concubine Zheng's palace a few days ago.
After a pause, the emperor's face became gentle again, and he spoke.
"Ladies and gentlemen, reading is naturally important, but now that the cabinet is busy, I really can't bear to add the burden of lecturing to Zhu Qing! What's more, in this way, it will also affect the court! ”
This is true, although the Ming Dynasty does not attach importance to the education of the prince, but the education of the prince is very strict, Zhu Yijun himself came over like this, he grew up under the teaching of Zhang Juzheng when he was a child, and the schoolwork is very heavy, in addition to learning the classics, but also trying to deal with government affairs, there is almost no time to rest.
As the prince's lecturer, the auxiliary ministers of the cabinet will naturally be busier, and they have to go to the palace early in the morning to give lectures, and the reason Zhu Yijun came up with is barely enough.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the old ministers are in their positions, so they naturally have to be loyal to the king, lecturing is a matter within the authority of the university, not to mention that there are still four auxiliary ministers in the cabinet, even if there is only one, and it should not be taken lightly!"
But barely strong is reluctant after all, Zhang Wei's words made Zhu Yijun speechless, people are loyal to the king, can you still say no?
After thinking about it, Zhu Yijun decided to start from another angle.
"Yuanfu, I read the book of the sages, I am very yearning for the style of the scholars in the past, if it is not for the lower body of the people, how can I know the truth of the sages, but unfortunately I Chong Ling practiced Zuo, entangled in state affairs, there is no such opportunity, now that the Yuanzi is growing, if I let him read the dead book hard, it is not beautiful, if it is not allowed to go to the domain, after the experience, can be a big responsibility!"
No matter how he tried before, in the end, the emperor couldn't help but show his fox tail.
Indeed, in the Ming Dynasty, there was a style of scholars traveling to study, but after the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty became vassals, they could only wander around one city, what is the difference between them and in the capital?
Besides, the emperor's move was obviously to drive Zhu Changluo out of the capital, which was simply Sima Zhao's heart.
"Your Majesty, this move is inappropriate, since the eldest son of the emperor is weak, how can he become a vassal? What's more, now that the storage seat is vacant, His Royal Highness, as a Yuanzi, cannot be far away from the capital, not to mention that if His Royal Highness is a vassal and has no qualifications and enough knowledge to teach, it is not beautiful, please think twice! ”
Regardless of whether the emperor admits it or not, in the minds of the courtiers, according to the etiquette law, the emperor has no son-in-law, so before the crown prince is established, the eldest son is the first heir in line, how can he stay away from the Jingshi!
As soon as Zhu Yijun's words fell, Zhang Wei spoke out against it.
