This incident of entering the cabinet gradually subsided after the emperor made a big fuss about the six branches, and the six branches did not refute this holy decree again and promulgated it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info But as Zheng De gradually takes the pace of reform in the future, I think that there will definitely be no less conflicts between monarchs and ministers in the future, and it will definitely gradually escalate.

In this incident, the silent cabinet elders were obviously criticized a lot, and some fierce rhetoric compared them to the "three cabinet elders of paper paste" in the Chenghua period. Liu Jian and the others could only laugh helplessly when they heard this, but they didn't care much. If a person is an official in the DPRK and has not been criticized and impeached by the officials, it is even rarer than the sun coming out of the west.

Another thing is that after this incident, the emperor was sick and asked for leave to go to the early court. Although it was just a little cold, he was too tired and didn't want to see a minister like the court, so Zheng De gave himself a holiday.

However, although there was a reason for the incident, some people still criticized the emperor for pretending to be sick and deliberately dropping out of the court. This also made Zheng De feel deeply helpless, there are still people who ask for leave when they are sick and take leave, it is really ****** not easy to be an emperor in Daming!

It is precisely because of this accusation that Zheng De has been angry and deliberately does not go to court since then. Of course, the ministers of the court would not have thought that Zheng De's gambling would be a lifelong gamble. Since then, the Zhongzhengde Dynasty I, no matter how the ministers of the court accuse, he has never been to the early dynasty.

……

Since he had received this holy decree, Wang Jing rushed to the Maoqin Hall early the next morning. However, when he arrived outside the gate of the Maoqin Palace, Wang Jing met Wang Wei, who had entered the cabinet together, and he was also waiting here for the emperor's summons.

Wang Wei naturally saw Wang Jing, but he was not discriminated against because he was not from Hanlin, but took the initiative to greet him and said, "Meet Lord Shangshu." ”

Seeing that this official from Hanlin did not despise himself because of the criticism of the court, and took the initiative to come forward to show goodwill. It was quite surprising to Wang Jing, and at the same time, he also had a good impression of this colleague who will work together in the future. He bowed back and said, "The old Wang Pavilion is polite, you and I have already entered the pavilion." still claims to be a subordinate official, isn't it broken? If you don't dislike it, you and I can be commensurate with the words. ”

The two of them have already entered the cabinet, so it is normal for Wang Jing to be called like this. However, because Wang Jing is one subject earlier than Wang Wei and is already a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, he is ranked ahead of Wang Wei, which is why the latter will take the initiative to meet him. Of course, Wang Jing will not have any shelf because of this, after all, there is really not much difference in the status of the two, and he was not as good as the one in front of him before. If ******** tail is cocked to the sky, it is too disgusting to pretend.

Hearing Wang Jing's words, Wang Wei also said with a solemn expression, "The number of etiquette cannot be abolished, don't embarrass the official." ”

Wang Wei shook his head, but he didn't insist anymore, but he felt a little strange. Since the emperor ordered him to enter the cabinet, why did he only have the status of a scholar of the East Pavilion of the Fifth Grade, without any additional title, and did not issue an edict to reinstate his officials. In this way, I am afraid that this is the lowest official position in the cabinet in recent years, and it is too strange to be directly demoted to the cabinet.

At this time, Wang Yue walked out and led the two to meet the emperor.

"The minister Wang Jing (王鏊) see the emperor." The two of them came in and bowed directly.

"Two elders, please take a seat." Zheng De waved his hand and looked at the two pavilion elders who raised their heads, one with a rough face and the other with a tall and mighty figure. If you take off this official robe, the two rural villagers who are alive and well do not have the bookish atmosphere of a scholar.

The contrast with his previous image was so great that he Zheng De almost couldn't help laughing.

Seeing the emperor looking at the two of them with a smile on his face, the two pavilions who had just sat down looked at each other a little strangely.

Are we that funny?

"When the two pavilion elders saw me today, I actually have nothing to say. I just hope that you can do a good job in the cabinet, and live up to the expectations of me, the court, and the people of the world. Zheng De didn't say anything about the scene, nor did he say anything about the scene, he just said a few words.

For the emperor's such straightforward and brief words, the two of them were stunned, but they still reacted instantly, "The ministers obey the order." ”

Zheng De nodded, and wanted to let the two of them leave directly, but suddenly remembered something, so he said to the two, "What do you think of the practice of 'non-Hanlin is not allowed to enter the cabinet'?" ”

The two looked at each other when they heard this, it was really a little strange, I don't know why the emperor suddenly mentioned this again?

Wang Jing did not shy away from saying directly, "The minister feels that 'non-Hanlin is not allowed to enter the cabinet', and he has the disgust of the view of the door, and it should be abolished." The minister did not deny that the talents selected among the Hanlin were the best pillars of each subject, but the officials who were released from the outside were not necessarily bad. It must be known that the big waves are sweeping the sand, and there are not a few capable ministers who have been trained to become officials in the court. Just as five of the six scholars in the court had never entered the Hanlin Dynasty, how could they dare to deny that they were not capable ministers? ”

Although it sounds like Wang Jing is a little suspicious of looking at the problem from his own point of view, what he said is not bad. Even Wang Wei, who was born in Hanlin, had to bow his head slightly and express his approval. After all, although there are many officials from the Hanlin Academy in the court, in addition to the three elders, there are many non-Hanlin officials in the six ministries and nine secretaries, as well as the left and right attendants. This also indirectly supports the former's view that the ability of officials who are not from Hanlin may not be much worse.

Zheng De didn't say anything, but just asked again, "Then do you think it is appropriate to select the talented people among the scholars in each subject to be admitted to the Hanlin Academy to stay in the government?" ”

Hearing the emperor's question, Wang Jing was stunned, and he really didn't understand the meaning of the emperor's words. After all, this system has been implemented for hundreds of years, and if there is something inappropriate, it may not be able to be implemented to this day, so what does the emperor mean by his words?

Perhaps guessing his doubts, Zheng De added, "Do you think it is reasonable for these officials of the Hanlin Academy to be sent to the Yamen such as the Sixth Ministry and Jiuqing to intern in political affairs, and then wait for the vacancy to appear in the court and then fill the vacancy?" ”

Wang Jing said thoughtfully, "What does Your Majesty mean?" ”

"What I mean is that these officials of the Hanlin Yuan stayed in the court all day to observe the government, and although they were able to learn a lot of things, they were a little out of touch with reality, and it was difficult to perceive the real suffering of the people in the world. If they preside over the overall situation of the court in the end, I am afraid it will not be a good thing for the Ming Dynasty and the people of the world. Zheng De voiced his worries.

However, when he looked back and saw Wang Wei's somewhat embarrassed face, he immediately reacted, this seems to have been staying in the Hanlin Academy and was finally promoted to the right attendant of the ministry. Isn't saying this in front of this person that he can't do it?

"Wang Ge Lao Mo should be careful, I definitely didn't mean you." Zheng De said curtly.

Wang Wei seemed quite personable, and said without mind, "The minister understands." ”

Of course, in front of the emperor, no one really dared to mind anything.

Although it is impossible to tell if he really doesn't mind this, Zheng De will not dwell on it. After all, this person does not weigh much in his heart, what he really values is Wang Jing. So after saying a word, he looked at the latter, "What do you think?" ”

Wang Jing also nodded approvingly, and said after a long time, "Your Majesty is very worried. Since the pre-Qin period, some scholars have read some books on their own, and they are often ashamed to speak loudly, talk exaggeratedly, talk like a river, and write a thousand words, but once they come into contact with reality, they are helpless, they are incompetent, misleading people and countries, and the past can be learned. For example, the Wei and Jin dynasties advocated clean talk, and even tirelessly worked for a few days and nights, which led to chaos and ruin. The Song Dynasty emphasized literature over military force, and emphasized reason, but as a result, the country was weakened and destroyed, resulting in foreign races entering the Central Plains. When the situation is good, these people are sharp and impassioned, and when the situation is unfavorable, they either compromise and betray, or they are confused and confused, and they have no ideas, and they have fallen into the disaster of the collapse of the country. ”

Zheng De nodded when he heard this, and he was quite satisfied with Wang Jing's answer. After the turmoil of Wang Jing's entry into the cabinet, he also had an in-depth understanding of the Hanlin Academy. However, I was quite disappointed with this Ming storage place.

Just like Wang Jing said, these officials who were selected as Hanlin to stay in the court to observe the government, saying that they were actually doing some work of serving tea and pouring water in the six ministries and nine secretaries. I really haven't learned much about my skills, but I'm quite good at playing tricks. This is also the reason why, apart from the cabinet, most of the other yamen leaders in the DPRK and China are selected from among the officials who have been released as officials. As for the cabinet, it is just a yamen similar to a secretarial agency that helps the emperor vote for opinions, but the requirements for its own ability are not very high, as long as they can put forward opinions and the like. This is also the reason why officials from Hanlin can always occupy it, and even have the officialdom practice of "non-Hanlin is not allowed to enter the cabinet".

And don't look at Liu Jian and others talking about the history of the government, and they won the trust of the emperor. But if you really let them do it themselves, they may not be able to do it well.

"What do you have to do about this situation?" Zheng De asked again, obviously with a sense of sophistication.

Wang Jing thought for a while, "Tang has a rule that 'if you don't plan to be a county or enter Taiwan Province', so the minister thinks that it is more appropriate to let Xinke Jinshi go out as an official to accumulate more practical work ability, and then it is more appropriate to re-enter the court as an official than to stay in the capital to watch the government." ”

Wang Jing's words coincide with Zheng De's thoughts, why is it that among the original six Shangshu, only Zhang Sheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, has the lowest ability? Obviously, this is because he has been in Beijing for many years and lacks experience.

However, there have been too many things that have happened this year, and although Zheng De has the idea of exalting the officials of the Hanlin Academy as officials, he still puts down his impatience and settles everything in the court first.

Isn't there a good saying that if you go outside, you must first settle inside?
