Chapter 629: Belittlement and Killing (I)

When Li You returned home, he hurried to work overnight to produce a note, emphasizing the idea of running a newspaper and emphasizing the significance of the newspaper. Of course, the point is to ask the imperial court to separate the newspaper office of the Guozi Supervisor and open it independently, and the name of the yamen can be set as "Wenxuanyuan".

The next day, after the court, he threw the song directly to the eunuch of the clerical office on duty at Huijimen, and sent it to the cabinet with all the chapters of the day.

Soon, Master Li's recital was passed in the hands of the elder pavilion. There are no major or urgent matters in government affairs today, and Li You's independence is the biggest one. In any case, it is not a trivial matter to open a new yamen in the imperial court, and everyone can't help but pay attention to it.

Over the past two or three hundred years, although there have been occasional small changes in the setting up of various ministries, courtyards, temples, and prisons in the imperial court, they have generally remained stable. The most famous change is probably that Emperor Gaozong built a new ordnance supervisor of a large scale, which burned money to the point of gnashing the teeth of the household.

In fact, Li You's mind to open up the ya, even if it is not to the extent that Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by, it is almost the same. As early as when he returned to the newspaper office of the National Supervision Office, some people speculated that Li You would not go to other good positions, but would go to the half-dead newspaper office, probably with the intention of opening a government and building a mansion.

There is also an even more insidious speculation that Li You deliberately threw money to run a private newspaper in order to make it impossible to run the official newspaper, so that he could take advantage of the situation and seize the political interests of the official newspaper and the government. Looking at the imperial court, there are thousands of officials, big and small, and there are only about 20 real officials in the Zhengyin Hall.

Regarding this rumor, Master Li only felt extremely ridiculous. The former president of Pravda, Shi Saijiu, was ashamed of his incompetence and resigned on his own initiative, and then he Li Youcai took over the mess, is this also something that he Li You can control?

In any case, running an official newspaper in the subordinates of Guozijian can only be an expedient measure of nondescriptry, and separating it is the right way, if it can be done.

However, although the truth is this truth, everyone understands it clearly, and it is the ability to really do it, and this is the case in the world. One of the reasons for Li You's reputation in the imperial court is that. He is a person who is good at getting things done, and he is also good at making things impossible for others.

didn't mention it, but said that the cabinet bigwigs had seen Li You's recital, and they all knew very well that this was Li You's offer. The price of opening the yaya alone is nothing, but this note is very dazzling!

In fact, for the elders, Li You Dingtian is also a positive five products, and how to change the name pattern is still a positive five products in the final analysis. Whether he is in the country to supervise the newspaper. Or open another yamen to run a newspaper, the difference is really not big. From the perspective of the elders of the Great Pavilion, they don't care about the small differences. Do elephants care about the position of the ants on the ground?

But the glaring thing about this performance is that Li Youzuo asked for the establishment of a "Cultural Propaganda Institute" instead of a "Cultural Propaganda Supervisor". What a difference!

Generally speaking, the imperial court yamen is the main foreign court civil official yamen except for the inner court forbidden institutions such as the Zhan Shifu, the Shang Bao Division and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, which are named after the four titles of ministry, courtyard, temple and prison.

In the past, there were six departments, five temples, three prisons, and three courtyards, and when Gaozong added the weapons supervisor, the people in the rivers and lakes called the eighteen Arhats. All in all, the ministry is in charge, the courtyard is lively, the temple is in charge, and the supervisor is in chores.

Among these yamen, the core six are solidified. The division of labor of the household rites and criminal workers can be traced back to the Zhou rites, so it is unchanged for ten thousand years, and it is impossible to increase to seven or eight.

The names of the five temples such as Taichang Temple and Guanglu Temple also have their origins, which can be based on history and can be deleted, but it is not good to add names that are not in the history books at will.

Therefore, if you want to build a new yamen, you can only make up your mind on two relatively flexible categories: courtyard and prison. But there is a difference between the hospital and the prison. The status of the court is relatively high, and the status of the prison is relatively low.

At a glance, you can know what kind of yamen is the Metropolitan Inspection Academy, the base camp of the Yanguan, and the Hanlin Academy, the place where the future slaughter and auxiliary support, and what kind of yamen is the Guozijian where poor scholars gather, the Qin Tianjian who only plays a fortune-telling role, and the Shanglin Yuan Supervisor who raises poultry and beasts and grows vegetables?

Therefore, Master Li's request for the establishment of a "Cultural Propaganda Institute" instead of a "Cultural Propaganda Prison" will make the cabinet feel dazzling. Is the yamen with the word "courtyard" so easy to open? Moreover, there is a slight difference between the hospital and the prison in that the prison is generally managed by one of the six departments. Li You wants to build a yamen with the name of the courtyard, is he planning to be independent of the world and not obey discipline?

When the vote was drafted, the cabinet did not agree with Li You's recital, and directly proposed it as "the court's discussion". It means that Li You's offer will not be vetoed or approved first, and it will be bargained at the court.

In a blink of an eye, it was the next court day, and after the end of the dynasty, the court discussed government affairs in the Wenhua Palace, and Li You was ordered to go to the palace to participate. Jinghe and the Son of Heaven lived on the throne in peace, and began to discuss after the hundred officials worshipped.

The eunuch next to him first read Li You's recital, and the main contents were: First, the newspaper office of the Guozijian was separated from the Guozijian and renamed the Wenxuan Academy, which was the Zhengwupin Yamen. There are officials such as court envoys and court judges, and a number of government offices such as newspaper offices, review halls, and department offices are set up.

Second, the main responsibilities of the Wenxuan Institute are two, one is to prepare for the official newspaper of the imperial court, and the other is to supervise the newspaper and beware of gossip to confuse the public.

Third, continue to use Pravda as the official newspaper of the imperial court. University scholars and Jiuqing each have a column, and the communication must be published; The communications of the third grade and above, as well as the Hanlin and Kedao communications, will be published after selection; Unless there are special exceptions for the three grades or less, the special approval of the non-scholastic envoy is generally not issued.

The ministers in the palace secretly sighed in their hearts, Li You can really toss and dare to toss, as for whether he can succeed, I can't see it, I really can't see it. After that, the ministers fell into deep thought, and this recital is very interesting between the lines.

The first to speak was Bai Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, "The matter of the newspaper has nothing to do with governing the country, so if you don't do it, why bother opening a new government again?" In the hundreds of years of this dynasty, there has never been any Pravda Newspaper Propaganda Institute before, and this recital is purely the whimsy of Lord Li, so why talk about it. ”

However, after Bai Shilang finished speaking, he didn't see anyone echoing him, and the hall was quiet, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost.

Although Jinghe Tianzi did not trust Bai Shilang as much as before, after all, he was an old man in the East Palace, and he didn't want to be too embarrassed to see him, so he opened Chrysostom and said: "There are many unknown people in this kind of pass, Li You stepped forward to explain to Zhongqing." ”

As soon as the words of the Son of Heaven Chrysostom came out, the shrewd people listened to the wind. The tone of the Son of Heaven seems to be neutral, but it is actually biased towards Li You's side.

As a person who tasted the sweetness from Mingli and had an additional channel to control the government, Jing and Tianzi were of course partial to Li You. And the emperor didn't care what the official report of the court was, because whether the newspaper of truth was handled or not did not have much impact on him, the emperor.

If Pravda is run and the minister is noisy in the newspaper, if he does not run Pravda, the minister will be noisy and noisy, anyway, it will be noisy, and the Son of Heaven will be habitually calm.

Hearing the call of the Son of Heaven, Li You, who was located in the outermost area, lowered his head and stepped forward. When passing by Bai Shilang's side, the corner of his mouth snorted coldly, and a few words popped out: "Mouse eyes." "It wasn't loud, but there were quite a few people around who heard it.

Li You walked to the throne and said: "In the past, although there were no newspapers, there were Donglin Party, there were Fushe, and public opinion matters, if the court did not take the initiative, there were other people who wanted to take the initiative, and if the court did not take the initiative, it had to be passive. With such a simple truth, the minister thought that there should be no one who did not understand the kilometers that could stand on the temple, and he did not know whether he really did not understand or false. ”

Bai Shilang's face was not very good-looking. Does he really not understand? It's just that he pretended to be confused and didn't want Li You to come out, who knew that after he came forward to speak, no one responded.

Originally, he wanted Li You to hate the Manchu Dynasty, and he climbed to the top and shouted, and it was enough for some people to echo and create a momentum, but he didn't expect to become a loner, and he was scolded for nothing.

In fact, Bai Shilang didn't want to think about it, why did Xu Shoufu and these bigwigs have an ambiguous attitude towards Li You this time, not as tense as before? Is it really a reason to be cautious?

Li You openly stated in the song that Pravda would open a column for the cabinet scholars and Jiuqing, and that 15 bigwigs would be bound to send their messages, and that other officials would be restricted from posting their posts.

This is tantamount to giving the bigwigs an extra powerful and exclusive sounding board, strengthening the personal centralization of the cabinet and Jiuqing, the scholars and Jiuqing don't say it on their lips, but their hearts are bright, how can they not like this? It must be known that in the Ming court, the tongue has always been extremely chaotic, and even if you are Zaifu, it will be disturbing and quiet.

This is the biggest potential that Li You wants to borrow, and it is also the quid pro quo he throws out, otherwise he would dare to hit the wall whimsically and deliberately.

After Li You finished speaking, it was still quiet, and no one wanted to entangle with Li You on this issue. The big guy's mind is here, how can others easily take the lead. The Son of Heaven asked again, "What does Shoufu think?" ”

Xu Shoufu came out of the list and said: "The minister thinks that the name of the Wenxuan Yuan is inappropriate, and it is a place to do miscellaneous work, how can He De use the name of the courtyard with the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Hanlin Academy?" So it's not appropriate, if it's a propaganda prison, it can still be seen. ”

Shoufu's speech made the ministers feel in their hearts, is even Li You's mortal enemy just a bone in the egg? Okay, what he said makes sense, the word "courtyard" is used by Qingliu subconsciously in everyone's subconscious, and using the Wenxuan Institute as the name seems to be too high for a newspaper. It can be seen from here that Li You thinks too highly of himself.

The ministers went to see Li You again, but I don't know how he explained. In front of everyone's eyes, Li You sighed and said to Xu Shoufu: "Shoufu's words are biased, and the hospital is also named after the hospital." If doctors can use it, can't literati run newspapers? Doctors and scribes are all in the service of the court and His Majesty, and I hope that the princes will not favor one over the other. ”

Too Hospital... The ministers were speechless, Li You didn't think too highly of himself, it turned out that his posture was very low.

Tai Hospital is indeed one of the eighteen Arhats, and the three yamen with the word "hospital" are the Ducha Yuan, the Hanlin Academy, and the Tai Hospital, but when it comes to the imperial court yamen, the Tai Hospital, the Monk Taoist Division, and the Monk Lu Division are generally forgotten.

Ha, someone laughed, the sound came from the throne, and when he looked up, he saw the young man pursing his lips desperately and holding back his laughter. Xu Shoufu shook his head awkwardly and returned to his shift.

The first assistant got off the field, and the second assistant came out again, and Peng Ge Lao said to the Son of Heaven: "The public instrument of public opinion, as Li You said, is not a trivial matter, but also a matter of educating the people, and even more and more important, Your Majesty must not ignore it." ”

Everyone in the hall was a little surprised, Peng Ge Lao was openly cheering for Li You's platform? It's too embarrassing, right?

I also listened to Peng Ge's old play: "The yamen of the Wenxuan Institute should be set as the third grade, and the envoy of the academy should be listed in the same column as the temple secretary." ”

Damn, Li You scolded in his heart, this is a naked killing!
