Chapter 630: Belittlement and Killing (Part II)
As the person concerned, Li You reacted the fastest, and everyone else immediately reacted. If the new yamen is raised to the third grade, the meaning is not ordinary, not just as simple as upgrading two grades.
The fifth grade is a threshold, the threshold from the low level to the intermediate level, and the third grade is also a threshold, the threshold from the intermediate level to the high level. Except for a few special examples, only if there are more than three grades, can they be commonly known as senior officials or high-ranking officials, and this threshold is not easy to cross.
Becoming a Zhengsanpin Yamen means that the Zhengyin Hall official must also be a Zhengsanpin. In any case, it is certain that Li You, as a very young Zhengwupin, who is not very qualified, even if he can jump to a zhang high, he can't reach the edge of Zhengsanpin.
At that time, I am afraid that he will not even be able to be the deputy official of the fourth grade, and with his rank of the fifth grade, he can only serve as a subordinate official of an organization set up in the Wenxuan Academy.
What's the benefit? For Li You, it is not even as good as the current situation, at least the nominal boss Guozi Priest Lord Thaishi has completely let go, and he has no one to hinder him in the position of president of the newspaper office.
He Li You worked hard for a long time, why did he come? Don't you just want to take the opportunity to take a ride and become the official of the Zhengyin Hall of the new yamen of the imperial court, so that you can take a step forward in the officialdom. As the saying goes, rather than the chicken's mouth, not the cow's queen.
Of course, he will not recommend himself to the very tasteless Mao Sui on the chapter of the opening of the yamen, but as the current head of the official newspaper of the imperial court, it is logical that he should serve as the official of the Zhengyin Hall after opening the yamen independently, no matter what the name of this yamen is.
But the premise is that his level can meet the requirements, otherwise even if the Son of Heaven himself is simply promoted, it is impossible for him to be the envoy of the Sanpin Wenxuan Academy.
Elder Peng Ge continued to tout: "The minister thought about it repeatedly in private, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Master Li played was very correct, and it was a far-sighted strategy. Public opinion involves the hearts of the people, so there is no trivial matter, and please pay attention to it! The change of the Wenxuan Yuan to the Sanpin Yamen is enough to show the attitude of the imperial court..."
When it came to his own future, Li You had to speak out against it: "The second assistant is wrong! ”
Peng Ge Lao asked rhetorically: "Could it be that Lord Li wants to say it again." Newspapers don't matter? ”
Li You said eloquently: "The words of the elder pavilion. There is a risk of seedlings being promoted. This is a new thing, and the prospect is unpredictable, so it is better to be cautious, and it is right to expect defeat before expecting victory.
If the grade of the three-grade yamen is too high, the impact on the imperial court will be too great, it is really rash and rash, and it is inconvenient to deal with the aftermath once there is a mistake. It is better to set the right size of the five products first, as the saying goes, it is good to turn around if the boat is small, and it is easy to correct if there is a mistake. ”
It is proposed that the yamen of the Wenxuanyuan be changed to a matter of three products. Most of the Sanpin officials in the hall had little interest in participating. Because they are no longer the squire of the six departments or the temple qing, the next position to consider is the Shangshu or the governor, so even if there is an additional Sanpin Yamen, it really has little to do with their future.
And some of the old qualified four products are eager to try, wanting to support and echo Peng Ge's opinion. One more Sanpin Yamen is one more chance to be promoted, why not?
I also heard Peng Ge Lao say: "Do things with all your might, how can you look forward and backward and be timid?" ”
Li You continued to argue: "Familiar things can be like this, but new things are different. but crossing the river by feeling the stones. So it's good to take one step at a time. If Peng Ge always thinks that the Wenxuan Yuan is too low for the five grades, then after things are gradually on the right track in the future, the yamen can be upgraded on the spot, why is it difficult? ”
Upgrade in-place later? Is this trying to cheapen you? Peng Ge thought about it, and was about to say something more, when Li You opened his mouth again: "The matter of handling the official newspaper is still trying to be explored, and there are many imperfections in the appearance. The deficit has not yet been eliminated, and it is very likely that it will fall into a half-dead situation again.
Looking through the palace of the princes, it is not easy to do the three-grade pillar stone and humerus, if you preside over the Wenxuan Academy, and the official report is in trouble for a while, how will you deal with yourself? Where does it go from here? Is Peng Gelao, who was helped by pulling seedlings, willing to take this responsibility? But if it's just a slightly smaller five-pret, it's easy to handle. It also has little impact on the government. ”
When others say these words, they may not be convincing, but when Li You says this, the meaning is different. After all, the concept of a new newspaper was pioneered by Li You, and it was also shown in his hands, and others have no successful cases at present, so he is naturally an authority.
The four-rank courtiers in the hall who were about to move suddenly stopped their thoughts at this moment, Li You's words are not simple, they are really not simple, they are very meaningful.
I don't know if other people heard what Li You meant, but Peng Ge Lao thought that he heard it, and these words contained a threat of hidden needles - no matter who came to be this Sanpin Wenxuan Academy, don't blame me for messing things up.
If others confide in this kind of meaning, it is a sign of impatience, Peng Ge Lao will only laugh it, but he does not dare to despise Li You like this, Li You is definitely qualified to say this.
The reason why Peng Ge Lao proposed to upgrade the Wenxuan Yuan to the third rank was because he had an old man who had served as the imperial envoy of the capital for eight years, and he was considered the oldest qualified fourth-rank official, and it was time to be promoted. So Peng Ge went out for an interview to see if there was a chance this time to fight for the opportunity to be promoted to the third grade for this old man.
However, Li You's secret threat was like pouring a bucket of cold water on it, waking up Peng Ge Lao. Sending the old to be Li You's boss, and a Li You who is still full of resentment and mastering the actual business, isn't that a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?
Li Youzhi is bound to win, but he was deprived of the opportunity to become an official of the Zhengyin Hall, how can he give up? The last time the imperial court deprived him of the right to run a newspaper, what were the consequences? With the support of the Son of Heaven, his revenge is not so pleasant.
Far examples include Mao Zhifu and Shi Shenzheng in Suzhou, recent examples include Luo Shenzheng, Ding Yunenvoy, Yang Futai in Yangzhou, and more recent examples include two former vice presidents of the Guozi Supervision Office...
The above people flashed through their hearts one by one, and countless precedents told Peng Ge Lao that Li You's threat was not a joke, and he couldn't send his own people to Li You as a target, it was a meat bun beating a dog and there was no return.
Besides, Li You's idea of running an official report is good, and objectively it is not unfavorable to them, so why bother doing it for the time being? Regardless of whether the newly opened Wenxuan Institute or not, the newspaper is actually in the hands of Li You, and the difference is just a name, and it is not worth fighting to the end with Li You for this false name.
Thinking of this, Peng Ge Lao didn't say anything anymore and returned to his shift.
Shousuke came out and shook it and went back, and Jisuke came out and shook it and went back too. Yuan Ge, the third-ranked scholar of Wenhuadian University, looked at his nose and nose and his heart, and he had no intention of coming forward, he looked at the face of the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven seemed to be partial to Li You, and he could only endure it if he had an opinion.
As for Lu Gelao, he must have strongly supported Li You, and Yang Gelao, another university scholar, has always had a good attitude towards Li You, and he must not be in opposition. The last of the East Pavilion University Shi Jin Pavilion Elders, in this case, it doesn't matter what kind of attitude it is.
The cabinet boss basically set the tone like this. Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, when the Son of Heaven was about to open his mouth to issue a holy message, Li Denggao, the editor of the Hanlin Academy who was on duty today, suddenly appeared from the side, and he had a plan to play. The monarchs and ministers in the palace looked at Li Bianxiu curiously, not knowing what he had to say.
Li Denggao's voice was slightly sharp, "The newspaper is a saint and cannot be ignored, Li You was born in a despicable and lowly servant, his character is low, he has no merit and fame, and his talent is insufficient, so he can be entrusted with the important task of presiding over public discussions!" ”
Originally, there were some whispers in the hall, but when they heard Li Bianxiu's words, they became silent and could be heard again, and countless eyes became stunned.
As the saying goes, "Hitting people doesn't slap their faces, and scolding people doesn't expose their shortcomings", Li Denggao's words are both a slap in the face and a shortcoming, and Li You will be offended to death.
It is said that when fighting in the court, no one really used Li You's background as a target to attack. There are several reasons, one is that Li You's various halos are too dazzling, which can offset his lack of background to some extent;
The second is that not everyone has a good background, attacking Li You's background is easy to form a map cannon, offending a large number of people with poor backgrounds, and thus making enemies in vain;
The third is that the struggle between the DPRK is about things, but it seems to be unreasonable to take out one's body and talk about things, and it is so low that it will only tear up the face and attack people, what is the difference between insulting others for being bald, deaf, blind, and lame? This is a self-destructive image, a little less graceful.
Fourth, although Li You was not born and was promoted quickly, he was promoted from the seventh grade to the fifth grade in just two or three years, but the process was relatively solid, and there was not much criticism in the middle. Officialdom is respected for strength, since Li Youan is firmly in this position, he also has his ability, and attacking his background is another way to say that the court knows no people.
Therefore, today, Li Denggao openly tore his face like this, and scolded Li You in front of the ministers for his despicable background and unworthy of taking on heavy responsibilities, which is really unprecedented, and people cannot help but be shocked. However, no one helped, and even Li You's enemies did not take the opportunity to come out and bite indiscriminately.
Li Denggao and Li You have a good relationship, everyone knows that during the southern tour of the Son of Heaven last year, Li You used sharp words to humiliate Li Denggao to the point of committing suicide by diving.
After that, Li You became more and more powerful as an official, while Li Denggao has always been relatively low-key, as if he had learned a lesson and knew that he should endure it when he should be in the officialdom. But I didn't want Li Bianxiu to jump out again at this time, could it be that watching Li You step by step, he finally couldn't bear to explode?
After all, Li Bianxiu was still too immature, and his mind was too narrow-minded, and he was blinded by the fire of jealousy, so he was dizzy enough to make this amazing remark. His behavior is no different from shrews scolding the street, there are some things that should not be said, everyone sighed after analyzing it.
Then everyone continued to wait curiously, wondering how Li You would respond to such a situation? In any case, his background and fame are indeed his shortcomings, and when he is entangled with Li Denggao in this regard, his own face is not easy to hang up.
Looking at Li You's clenched teeth and his face turned pale, Peng Ge Lao and the others couldn't help but feel a little gloating. Li You is known as invincible in the court debate, and it is all about rules, and when he encounters Li Denggao's unreasonable and jealous madness, see what he can do.
