Dao idiot has been in the palace for three years, and he has also taken over the Qin cha behind the prince, but this time it is different.

Qin Cha was not one or two, the celebrant eunuch came three, and in addition to Gu Dayong, there were also Wei Xia and Zhang Jin. The "eunuch" here is not another name for a eunuch, but the rank of an internal official.

Among the 24 yamen in the inner court, except for the celebrant who has several eunuchs, only the palm print of the other yamen is the "eunuch" grade, which is the fourth grade.

In addition to the three internal officials, there are also cabinet scholars Liang Chu, Dingguo Gong Xu Guangzuo, Shouning Hou Zhang Heling, Horse Commander Cui Yuan, and Ministry of Rites Shangshu Mao Cheng.

Internal officials, ministers, nobles, relatives, and ministers, such a scale of the Qincha, everyone in the palace was amazed.

Moreover, who else can make the princes and ministers mourn together?

It was Liu Congyun, who mentioned "brother to brother" to the prince in the Qiyun Hall yesterday, and his expression was also excited when he saw such a Qin mission. If yesterday was eight points possible, then looking at what is in front of you, it becomes ten points.

In addition to welcoming the emperor to Beijing, where can such a scale be used? Now he died and became the first emperor; The prince of the palace is the lord of the world?

Liu Congyun's eyes lit up.

The Taoist idiot stood in the queue, also looking at the Qincha in front of him. When Gu Dayong first arrived in Anlu, he had not yet served white, and now he has changed into filial piety clothes, it seems that the Qincha have already planned to change their clothes after arriving in Anlu.

It seems that the bigwigs in the capital, although they are in a hurry to go south, the return trip must be well arranged, and there is no need to worry about any changes.

Although the prince was already crowned the prince at the age of ten, because he was not yet an adult, he was already headed by the princess when facing the imperial court.

There was no joy or anger on the faces of the princess and the prince, and according to the rules, they opened the middle door of the palace and led all the subordinates of the palace and the minister of Anlu to greet the angels at the gate of the palace.

Seeing that the people were in vain, the princess was surprised, and the prince was a little stunned.

According to the etiquette system, whether it is a nobleman or a civil and military officer, he must bow down in the face of the prince and princess. But because they held the holy decree and the queen mother's decree in their hands, they had to go to the main hall of the palace to deliver the decree first, and then officially greet them.

After that, the Qincha was welcomed to the carrying hall.

The civil and military officials of Anlu were still confused, they got the news at noon, and they knew that there was a Qin sent from the capital, and the official post sent an official document there, asking them to go to the palace together to listen to the order. When I arrived at the palace, I waited from noon to afternoon, and when I arrived, I was in this situation.

Looking at the plain white in front of you, what else can you do except the national funeral? Why didn't the yamen receive the news of the state funeral? Why did so many powerful ministers go south to Anlu?

Everyone sensed that something was wrong, but in front of the prince and the big man in the capital, there was room for them to talk. Even if the prince ascends to the palace, there are a number of officials who are qualified to be in the palace.

In the carrying hall, the incense case has already been set up. Everyone knelt together, and Liang Chu stood with his back to the north with his face to the south, but what he read was not an ordinary holy decree, but an edict.

The edict said:

I Shao inherited the ancestors of the ancestor Pi Ye ten out of seven years deep only lonely, the first emperor entrusted only in the succession to win people, the ancestors of the sect depended, the emperor took the test filial piety, the emperor's own brother Xingxian Wang's eldest son was smart, benevolent and filial piety, and the instrument was established in a good order.

There was silence in the hall, and the princess slowly raised her head, tears on her face.

The prince also had a sad face, and choked up: "Your Majesty...... The emperor ......"

Prince Liang said mournfully: "The emperor made a big trip on the 14th, and the ministers went south by the order of the queen mother. The Queen Mother here, there is also an edict to Her Royal Highness. ”

Next, Prince Liang read out the edict of the Queen Mother, and ordered the prince to go north to succeed to the throne.

After reading out the two wills, Mao Cheng asked the prince to ascend to the throne. According to the legal system of the imperial court, when the prince leaves the feudal kingdom, he must first receive the golden talisman given by the imperial court before leaving the feudal territory, otherwise he will be punished.

Inside and outside the carrying hall, there was already a cry.

Yuan Zonggao, the chief official of the palace, endured his grief and asked the prince to ascend to the throne.

The prince ascended to sit, the palace and the minister of Anlu civil and military affairs stood, and the prince of Dingguo, Xu Guangzuo, entered the golden talisman.

The prince got up and took it personally, and the ministers saluted.

Although everyone still calls "Your Highness", the meaning is different. After receiving this will, the prince is no longer the lord of a land, but the heir of the Ming Dynasty.

The eyes of the subordinate officials of the royal palace were already bright, and the local civil and military forces were also very excited.

One person attained the Tao and the chicken dog ascended to heaven.

Not to mention the entire Son of Heaven obtained by the Son of the World.

In the future, with only their resumes as officials in Anlu or the palace, the future is promising.

Dao idiot, Liu Congyun, Chen Chizhong, etc., all stood at the end of the prince's subordinate officials, but they could still clearly hear the complete will.

It wasn't until this incident that he finally understood why there was a big ceremonial dispute, which was really unclear in the will.

It is only said that "Lun order should be established", and it is not mentioned that it was succeeded to the name of Emperor Xiaozong.

In the eyes of the queen mother and the court bosses, the mention of "Lun order should be established" is to legitimize the succession of the prince, and the kings of the province criticize it. But whether it is the queen mother or the minister, they all feel that Zhengde has no children, since he passed the throne to his cousin, then this cousin should inherit the incense of Emperor Xiaozong, which is also in line with the rule of "brother to brother".

But the edict did not mention this sentence.

After the official etiquette was over, all that remained was a mournful voice in the hall.

At this time, among the subordinate officials of the palace, only Yuan Zonggao, Lu Song, and Zhang Zuo could show their faces in front of Qincha, and the others were sent out of the palace.

Many people stood in front of the Qiyun Palace, their faces were sad for a while, excited for a while, and indescribably weird.

The heart of the Taoist idiot finally settled down and returned to the Lequn Courtyard in great strides.

The school was suspended, and there was no errand, he was really leisurely.

It was quiet in the Lequn Courtyard, and Liu Congyun and Chen Chizhong were not there.

Before the prince was expelled, Anlu City was under full martial law, and after he came down from the Carrier Palace, the Honor Guard Division and the Mansion Guard Division had people go out of the palace to guard the city gate.

Anlu is now not only the national capital, but also the residence of the heir to the Son of Heaven.

The five thousand horsemen who went north to greet the Son of Heaven will also enter the city later, of which 2,000 will stay in the palace and 3,000 will stay in the place.

The idiot was lying on the bed, feeling a little worried. Next year's township test is really a hurdle, and if you can't pass it, it's really bad.

It's just that he is not used to sighing, and when he thought of the imperial examination, he turned over and started again, and went outside to take a copy of "Selected Writings of Hongzhi Shiwen" and read it.

After reading half of the chapter, his mind was in a mess, and he put the book down again.

The imperial examination is a hurdle, and the imperial examination has a good way for the emperor in the past. The prince looks very normal now, except for being more suspicious, how can he become the Jiajing Emperor in history who was almost strangled to death by the palace maid? Use virgin yuan red alchemy, disgusting or not? The Taoist idiot only thinks about it, and he feels that his hairs stand on end.

Thinking about the fate of Yan Song's stench for 10,000 years, the Taoist idiot has to regard the good things of the son of the world as a big deal.

Just thinking about his origin, he heard someone say outside the window: "Second brother." ”

The idiot looked up and saw Lu Bing standing outside the window.

"Come on in." The idiot got up and said.

Lu Bing looked at the other doors and said, "Aren't they there?" ”

The idiot said: "Everywhere is busy. ”

Lu Bing picked the curtain and came in, took out a cloth bag from his sleeve, and said with a smile: "For the second brother." ”

The idiot took it, there was still warmth in it, and when he opened it, there were four fist-sized buns inside.

"Shepherd's cabbage buns, put in vegetable oil, but delicious, second brother eat quickly. The palace is going to receive the Qincha, and the kitchen is not yet known to be delayed. Lu Bingdao.

The smell of the filling is still invisible, and the sweetness of the flour comes to my nose.

The idiot just thought about his thoughts, and he didn't think that he was really hungry when he saw the food now.

The idiot smiled and thanked him, picked up a bun, and ate it. The Lu family is all northerners, and they still retain the habit of having a heavy population in the north, so this bun is in harmony with the taste of Taoist idiots.

Ate three in one go.

Lu Bing was crooked on the couch, watching the Taoist idiot eat three buns as usual, and couldn't help but be curious: "Second brother, aren't you excited?" ”

The Taoist idiot glanced at him and said, "Da Lang was excited, and he ate less steamed buns?" ”

Lu Bing laughed twice and said, "It's not just me, I didn't even eat a few bites of my mother's dinner." ”

Seeing that his face was not happy, but with a hidden worry between his eyebrows, the Taoist idiot couldn't help but wonder: "What is Da Lang worried about?" ”

Lu Bing said with a bitter face: "Second brother, His Royal Highness is the lord of a country in Anlu, and everyone is obedient; When I arrived in the capital, I might be bullied in the face of the emperor's relatives and princes and ministers. ”

Dao idiot was stunned when he heard this, this was not like Lu Bing's tone. He looked at Lu Bing twice and said, "But what did my aunt say?" ”

Lu Bing sighed and said, "My mother is worried about Your Highness...... said that His Highness seems to be easy to speak, but he can't stand it. If you encounter injustice, you may be wronged. ”

The Taoist idiot pondered, and it seemed that the nurse who knew the son of the world best was the mother of the son. Now that the will has only arrived in Anlu, Fan has begun to worry about the future, and it is not without purpose.

Seeing that the idiot didn't speak, Lu Bing looked out the window, and then whispered: "Erlang, Your Highness called Xing Baihu and Hutou to his side last night...... Since yesterday, the tiger head has begun to obey His Highness......"

Dao Idiot raised his head, frowned, and said, "Why didn't you see it just now?" ”

Lu Bing said: "Xu is arranged in the dark. ”

Dao Idiot thought for a while and said, "Five thousand Beijing riders from the capital, there is no need to worry about the safety of the palace, right?" ”

Lu Bingdao: "Your Highness is also just in case." ”

The idiot knows that it's just because the prince is suspicious and can't trust Jingqi.

But in that case, how to prevent it on the way north? If you are guarding against it, you can't defend it openly, otherwise you will offend people before you enter Beijing.

He was a little itchy in his heart, curious about what the prince was talking about with those chinchas.

The queen mother's edict is urgent, and the dragon chair in the capital is still waiting for people to take a seat, even if the will of Zhengde's death is not clear to the world, but there are always traces of spider silk flowing out. If you wait for the vassal king's will, the prince has not yet arrived in Beijing, and I don't know what will happen.

Speaking of which, King Ning was really unlucky, if he waited patiently for another two years, and rebelled at this time, the effect would definitely be extraordinary.

Seeing that it was getting dark outside, he came back with a food box.

The idiot used the buns, and his stomach was already full, so he asked the stinger to take it back for his own use. However, Lu Bing, who is the master of the incense in the pot, opened the food box and ate a few bites of the two meat dishes before letting the sting take it away.

Seeing that the house was growing up and the outside was getting darker and darker, Lu Bing stretched his waist and left.

When Chen Chizhong and Shen Congyun came back, it was already the second watch.

Seeing that the lights were still lit in the idiot's house, I had to stand at the window and say hello.

Under the flickering lights, although the two of them were colorless, they both had joy in the corners of their eyes......

The next day, the palace maid sent white clothes. Chen Chizhong and Liu Congyun had breakfast, and then they went to study errands, and there was another idiot left in the Lequn Courtyard.

The Taoist idiot was idle and bored, thinking about whether to take the opportunity to go home, but thinking about it, it was not good to ask for leave by the side of the deceased son, and the palace guards were strict.

Still feeling inconvenient, he temporarily put down his thoughts of going home, sat down at his desk, and pulled out a book from the shelf, which was not an examination book such as the Four Books and the Five Classics and Shiwen, but a pamphlet, which was compiled by an official of Zhishi, about the selection of civil officials.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, civil officials were used in four ways, recommending, supervising students (tribute), jinshi and officials. After the year of Tianshun (the year name of Yingzong), the recommendation gradually fell into disuse, and only the three ways of jinshi, tribute, and officials were left. There is also a saying that Jinshi, lifting people, and paying tribute are used at the same time.

According to the latter, even if the Taoist idiot fails the township test, as long as the country is overpowered, he will be qualified to make up for the official.

However, after entering the official career, in the selection of people, it is also divided into "seniority, level, year, and time". Even if you start as a clerk, it is not easy to get promoted. You must know that miscellaneous officers are not the same as non-commissioned officers. The non-commissioned officer is promoted to two levels after nine years, and whether the miscellaneous card tube can be promoted depends on the merits and whether there are vacancies on it.

If you want to get ahead in officialdom, you have to take the Jinshi exam.

The first class enters the Hanlin, and the second and third class are selected with the lack of note, except for the Shu Jishi. The second class is in charge, the outer six products, and the third class is the internal commentator, pedestrian, doctor, Chinese book, outside the county order, and the official.

The first "Jinshi" and the second are "Jinshi", the third is "such as Jinshi", and the starting and promotion speed of the top three is far from the first two.

Don't talk about others, let's just say that one of the messengers who came to preach the decree today, Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the champion of the sixth year of Hongzhi, entered the Hanlin Academy for the compilation, and then was a bachelor, a bachelor, and after entering the office for fifteen years, he was promoted to the Ministry of Officials, and he was born in the Ministry of Rites for two years. In seventeen years, it was promoted from the sixth grade to the second grade, becoming one of the Jingtang. He is a third-class jinshi in the same department, assuming that he is a foreign professor of the county, his grades are not good or bad, and he has been promoted to two levels in nine years, and he is still staying in the position of the fifth grade.

The speed of the first and third grades, that's how big it is.

Dao is obsessed with stroking his forehead, and he feels very tired now, let alone Jinshi.

The dust has settled on the prince's side, should I use all my mind to read books?

If you don't take advantage of the fact that the prince succeeds to the throne, how can you get close to each other in and out of the harem?

Thinking of this, the idiot put down his books, changed into white clothes, left the Lequn Courtyard, and went to Lu Bing's house.

From now on, it will be difficult to see the prince, and Lu Bing should be closer here.

I didn't want to, I walked to the door of the Lu family's courtyard, and happened to meet Lu Song and Lu Bing's father and son.

Lu Song's expression was a little gloomy, but Lu Bing was high-spirited.

Lu Song stopped and looked at the idiot a few times, hesitated for a moment, pulled the idiot aside, and said, "Erlang, there is one thing, you have an idea for yourself." ”

Seeing him like this, the Taoist idiot was surprised: "My lord, please speak?" ”

Lu Song hesitated and said, "Your Highness should add a few attendants to your side......"
