Chapter Seventy-Two: Return to the Hanlin Academy (Part II)
Wang Tingxiang had just stepped into the Hanlin Academy, and before he had time to do something, he was called over by Liu Zhong, a bachelor in charge of the academy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Liu Zhong, the word Sizhi, Chen Liuren, Chenghua 14 years Jinshi. He joined the department in the same year as Yang Tinghe and Liang Chuju, and the last three became the prince's teachers at the same time. Now that the emperor has ascended the throne, his status has naturally risen.
Even if he knew that Zheng De didn't like his teacher a little, Wang Tingxiang didn't dare to really slack off. After all, in addition to the identity of the emperor, even the identity of the master of the Hanlin Academy cannot be despised by him, how to say that he is also his top boss!
He bowed his hand and said, "The lower officials and the royal court pay a visit to the bachelor." ”
Liu Zhong sat unhurriedly and glanced at Wang Tingxiang who was standing. Holding the tea cup, he slowly brushed off the tea foam with the tea lid, and took a sip gently, which looked quite leisurely.
Finally, he put down the teacup and said slowly, "No need to be polite, do you know why I came to you?" ”
"I don't know."
said that he didn't know, but in fact, Wang Tingxiang guessed a few points, most of which were slightly related to his current identity. After all, the identity of this "Hanlin Academy" was not asked for by himself, after all, he was able to return to the Hanlin Academy this time, but he was suspected of going through the back door.
Sure enough, I only heard Liu Zhong say, "The old man doesn't know how you bewitched Your Majesty and got you into the Hanlin Academy." Although he has been neglected many times, he has been rejected by the emperor. To be honest, the old man doesn't like you. After all, as a scholar, it is better to do some duty, don't learn these things and drill camps, and tarnish your identity as a waiter in the Hanlin Academy. ”
What's that? Why did you just go to camp?
Wang Tingxiang couldn't laugh or cry, although he now asked the emperor for an official position, which can be described as a very simple matter. But he has never done this, and even the current identity of the Hanlin Academy attendant is also Li Dongyang who helped him Zhang Luo.
As an ambitious and talented Dengke Jinshi, Wang Tingxiang also has his own pride. He believes that with his own ability, sooner or later he will be able to become a supreme minister. It's just that now he has inexplicably become the emperor's favorite minister, and he has also become a "traitor" in the eyes of some people.
Thinking of this, there is an inexplicable sadness, which is simply a fight with Dou E.
Although Liu Zhong's words are some direct and hurtful, if he changes to someone else, I am afraid that he will directly offend and die. But Wang Tingxiang also knew that he was for his own good. Surrendered, "The lesson of the lord is that the lower officials should be kept in mind. ”
Seeing that his attitude was so sincere, Liu Zhong's tone also softened, and he sighed lightly, "You are also the emperor's confidant now, don't lose the integrity of a scholar in order to obey the emperor's wishes." Otherwise, even if the emperor gives an order, it will be useless, and the old man will directly sweep you out of the Hanlin Academy. ”
At the end of the sentence, his tone became sharp again.
"Xia Guan understands."
Wang Tingxiang knew that Liu Zhong didn't just say this to scare and scare himself, but he really did this kind of thing with his temper. This kind of person is just a tendon, and it is useless for anyone to do serious things, and they will not worry so much. What kind of identity such as "the emperor's favorite minister" is a floating cloud in their eyes, and it is not used at all.
Otherwise, ordinary people knew that he was now a popular person in front of the emperor, how could they dare to reprimand him as bluntly as Liu Zhong?
I listened to Liu Zhong's nagging for a long time, and I was mentally devastated...... No, after some baptism, I repeatedly promised to change my mind. Eternal life and eternity to be a loyal and upright minister of the Ming Dynasty, dedicated his life to the Ming Dynasty, the emperor and the people of the world, and finally got out.
……
After stealing half a day of leisure, Zheng De finally had time to practice calligraphy in Maoqin Palace, which can be regarded as a hobby he developed after coming to this world. After all, there is no computer network or anything like that, so I have nothing to do all day, and I always look for something to do.
Moreover, the miserable calligraphy, not to mention others, even he himself can't stand it. But after these months of practice, I have seen people more or less. However, people are always greedy and insufficient, although they have reached the standard of "seeing people", Zheng De has a new purpose. Although the words don't need to be good-looking, at least they must reach the level of three elders.
Belch? To the level of three elders?
Well, it didn't seem too high, and he had to keep trying.
"Long live the Lord, Wang Lun, the envoy of the Tai Hospital, asks to see him."
"Let him in!" Zheng De waved his hand without raising his head.
"Your Majesty!"
Zheng De put down the brush in his hand, looked at the envoy of the Tai Hospital in front of him, and suddenly had a bad premonition, "Is there something wrong with Dai Shan?" ”
"Lord Zuodu Yushi is sick and dead."
Wang Lun nodded and arched his hand, "Shuchen and the others are shallow in their learning, and they are really powerless. ”
Just as he was ready to withstand the next wave of the Emperor's anger, the latter's expression calmed down, but he looked a little down.
After being silent for a long time, I couldn't help but sigh softly. said secretly, "Another one has gone, in the final analysis, the aging of this group of ministers is too serious, otherwise it would not be like this." It seems that it is really necessary for me to implement this retirement system now, otherwise the entire court will become a nursing home. ”
It seems that he wants to clear his original intention of implementing the retirement system, but how to look at it feels a bit self-deceptive.
"Go down." He waved his hand. Since even the best imperial doctor in the world can't save him, if he really comes to the end of his life, what's the use of getting angry?
Wang Lun did not leave immediately at this time, but looked at Zheng De with a hesitant expression.
Zheng De took in this scene and asked strangely, "Is there anything else?" ”
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen is only a shallow scholar, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to serve as the envoy of the Tai Hospital. I hereby ask Your Majesty for my resignation, and I hope that you will be approved. ”
thought that he had done a good job as a minister of rites, but for some reason he was transferred to the hospital by order from the emperor. became a real Langzhong, which made him depressed and speechless. It's just that because of my father's illness, I used to pay attention to medicine, and I have nothing to do to see others, but it's just a hobby. It seems that the medical skills have not reached the level of "imperial doctor", why did the emperor take a fancy to himself?
Especially today, this incident has sounded the alarm bell for him. Thinking of the tragic experience of his predecessor, he inexplicably took the charge of murdering the emperor and joined the army, which also made him see the high danger of the profession of imperial doctor. So for the safety of his own life, he finally had the courage to resign.
Even at the risk of losing his position, go home and be a real Langzhong. It's better than staying in the hospital and worrying all day for fear that one day disaster will fall from the sky. So after thinking about it, he couldn't help but resign in the end.
Zheng De was stunned when he heard this, and thought that he felt guilty because he didn't cure Dai Shan. He said with relief, "You are not to blame for this, you don't need to feel guilty." ”
Guilt? Why should I feel guilty?
Wang Lun understood that the emperor had misunderstood his own affairs, but he couldn't really explain it clearly. I could only say with a bitter face, "Your Majesty, you can't save Daidu Yushi this time, everything is the fault of the ministers, and I hope that Your Majesty will condemn the ministers to commoners." ”
In order to get rid of this unfortunate errand, he also gave up. Not only do you not even want an official, but you don't even hesitate to bear a charge.
Zheng De sighed lightly when he heard this, and couldn't help but secretly say, "It's really rare for such a responsible official to be so responsible!" For a matter that has little to do with him, he not only took all the responsibility, but also took the initiative to ask for punishment. Where can such a good courtier who is so brave to take responsibility be found? ”
He was slightly moved, and he was determined not to let him go.
"Well done, I really don't blame you."
Wang Lun was about to cry when he heard this, and said secretly, "Your Majesty, you are doing well, can you let me go?" ”
He really can't say what he is suffering now, and he really doesn't know what to say. I was stunned and didn't know what to do, so I had to make a bitter face.
Seeing him like this, Zheng De was also a little unbearable, and thought for a while, "Aiqing, if you think that your medical skills still need to be improved. I think that the Tai Hospital can usually treat the people, so that it can not only serve the people of my Ming Dynasty, but also improve your medical skills, and you don't need to be a scholar. How do you feel about killing three birds with one stone? ”
When Wang Lun heard this, he understood that his idea of resignation was completely shattered. At the same time, he was also shocked by the emperor's idea, and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, the Tai Hospital is an official office, is it okay to treat the people like this?" ”
"What if it's an official office, isn't the Tai Hospital a place for people to see patients?" Zheng De glanced at him dissatisfied, "Since it's a place to treat people, why can't you treat people?" ”
"Your Majesty, if you treat the people, I'm afraid that the imperial doctor will not have enough manpower, and the palace still needs the imperial doctor." Wang Lun reminded helplessly.
Zheng De thought for a moment, "Since that's the case, then so be it." Three imperial doctors are sent to be on duty in the palace every day. As for the lack of imperial doctors, you can recruit some more. ”
Wang Lun saw that the emperor had made up his mind, and his resignation was also rejected, so he could only nod helplessly and agree.
