When he returned home in the evening, Li Yuntian asked Zhou Yuting to treasure the peony picture, which is not just a painting, after Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne, this is a holy relic given by the emperor, and it is also a testimony of his friendship with Zhu Zhanji. It is recommended to read novels, read books, and read the Internet

The reason why Li Yuntian was able to mention gunpowder and water vapor in Ciqing Palace was naturally to derive explosives and steam engines, and in his opinion, it would be a top-down process for the Ming Dynasty to learn from Confucianism to a hundred schools of thought.

Obviously, Li Yuntian would not have counted on the support of the officials in the court who had been promoted to the imperial court, and to reduce Confucianism from a dominant position to a parallel status with other disciplines.

Therefore, he can only start with the emperor and let the emperor promote this matter.

The only way to get the emperor to change his attitude towards Confucianism was to make him realize that the exclusive respect for Confucianism was a danger to the Ming Dynasty, and that explosives and steam engines could definitely bring a great shock to him, and that Confucianism could not resist the cannons.

No one would have thought that Li Yuntian's ultimate purpose in presenting this "Map of the Territory of the World" was actually to promote the development of natural sciences in the Ming Dynasty, and there was a very big bend in the middle, which can be described as well-intentioned.

At the beginning of May, the crown prince Zhu Zhanji set off for Nanjing to prepare for the relocation of the capital and pay homage to the imperial tomb of Ming Taizu.

On the same day, Han Anyu, the former governor of Jiujiang Mansion in Jiangxi, arrived in the capital, and the first thing he did after entering the city was to visit the Li Mansion.

It's a pity that Li Yuntian is on duty in Wenyuan Pavilion, but Han Anyu has already prepared to bring his wife here, and the two have a good conversation with Zhou Yuting, after all, both parties are also old acquaintances.

Han Anyu's attitude was very correct, he knew that it was Li Yuntian's credit to be able to come to the capital to serve, so he naturally had to pay tribute to Li Yuntian:

Today's Li Yuntian is no longer the small county of Hukou County in the past, he is the imperial history and Shu Jishi of the Ming Dynasty, and he is also a celebrity before Emperor Hongxi, and his future is limitless.

According to Han Anyu's inference, if Li Yuntian can continue to walk smoothly in his official career, then it is very likely that he will be among the ranks of the fourth-rank members before the age of thirty, which can create an astonishing precedent for civil officials in the Ming Dynasty.

In the evening, Zhou Yuting left Han Anyu and his wife to have dinner at home, and Li Yuntian and Han Anyu had a drink and a happy conversation after returning from the dispersal of duty, and the atmosphere of the scene was very light.

"Brother Han, the younger brother heard that Master Hanlin and Taichangqing Yang Pu are the first people of Huguang Shishi, and now that Brother Han is in charge of the Huguang Qing Division, why don't you go and visit Lord Yang and ask about the local affairs of Huguang."

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Li Yuntian, who was talking and laughing, suddenly changed his tone and said to Han Anyu quietly.

Although Li Yuntian transferred Han Anyu from Jiujiang Mansion to the capital and pushed him to the position of Wailang, the secretary of Huguang Qing, he did not intend to accept Han Anyu for his own use, and let Han Anyu take his lead as a follower.

As an experienced "person who has come over", Li Yuntian knows very well that the powerful ministers who can really reassure the emperor are, firstly, greedy people with countless enemies, and secondly, they are noble ministers and lonely people. The update is the fastest and most stable

Li Yuntian neither wanted to make countless enemies, nor did he want to become a loner, so he could only choose to be alone, so he could not form a party for personal gain, otherwise once his power was large, then the emperor would definitely kill him mercilessly.

"Lord Yang?" Han Anyu was slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't understand Li Yuntian's intentions for a while, and he didn't know why Li Yuntian asked him to find Yang Pu, compared with those old ministers of the East Palace, Yang Pu's kindness was obviously far inferior to Yang Shiqi and Huang Huai and others.

"It's easy to put the icing on the cake, but it's hard to send charcoal in the snow!" Li Yuntian smiled at Han Anyu and raised the wine glass in his hand and said meaningfully.

Han Anyu reacted at this time, his eyes showed a look of surprise, didn't Li Yuntian let him take advantage of Yang Pu's loss to go and defect?

"Present the auspicious words of the elder brother." Originally, Han Anyu suspected that he would be wrong, but when he noticed that there was a trace of unfathomable taste in Li Yuntian's smile, he then made a decision, touched the wine glass with Li Yuntian with a smile, and the two drank it all.

After the banquet, Li Yuntian and Zhou Yuting sent Han Anyu and his wife out of the mansion, and they could be personally sent by the county lord Yingrui, and Han Anyu and his wife couldn't help but be shocked.

"Master, why did Li Yushi turn you away?" On the way home, when Han Anyu was looking down in the carriage and pondering the intention of Li Yuntian's words at the wine table earlier, the old wife sitting opposite him couldn't help but ask, with a look of disappointment on her face.

"You don't understand, Yun Tian is by the side of the Son of Heaven, how can he make friends with foreign ministers?" Han Anyu glanced up at his old wife and said in a deep voice, he has now figured out Li Yuntian's concerns.

"Taichang Temple is a deserted yamen, wouldn't he delay your future by letting you visit Taichang Temple?" The old wife complained dissatisfied.

"What do you know as a woman? Do you know how many people are vying for the position of the Wailang of the household department, since Yuntian has pushed her husband up, how can she delay her husband's future? ”

Han Anyu's brows furrowed slightly, and he instructed his old wife with a stern expression, "Yuntian must have another hidden reason for doing this, and even if there is no hidden feeling, he also has the grace of knowing his husband, how can you criticize yourself?" ”

"The concubine knows that she is wrong." Seeing Han Anyu's displeasure, the old wife knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she hurriedly apologized and repented, maybe it was really like what Han Anyu said, Li Yuntian's move had an indescribable far-reaching intention.

So, early the next morning, Han Anyu went to visit Yang Pu's mansion, leaving a lot of valuable gifts, he must have saved up after many years as a local official, which is much stronger than a Beijing official of the same level, and expressed his intention to take refuge without concealment.

For Yang Pu, Han Anyu defected when he was "left out in the cold", that is, his own people who shared weal and woe, far from being comparable to those officials who stammered after he soared, which made Han Anyu step by step into Yang Pu's interpersonal circle.

Li Yuntian is paving a broad road for Han Anyu to move forward steadily in his career, in Han Anyu's heart, he has both "the grace of knowing and encountering", and he is also a friend who has an irreversible relationship, and his feelings for Li Yuntian are extremely deep, and he is even further than Yang Pu.

Due to the reason for the relocation of the capital, the game between the cabinet and the five governments and six ministries has come to an end for the time being, and the yamen of all the major ministries and courtyards in the capital are busy with the matter of moving the capital.

In addition to the officials in the yamen, tens of thousands of family members had to be relocated, which would be a huge project, and it took several years for the Yongle Emperor to move the capital to finally complete.

However, among all the yamen in the capital, the atmosphere in the Metropolitan Procuratorate did not ease with the arrival of the moving capital, but intensified, and the officials inside were clearly divided into three camps.

One of the largest camps is headed by Liu Guan of the Left Capital and Fan Bin of the Left Deputy Capital of the Imperial History, and the number of people under the command is the Imperial History of the Five Prefectures and Six Ministries, and the number of people accounts for almost sixty percent of the Imperial History of the Imperial Palace.

The second camp is headed by Chen Tianxun, the right deputy capital of the imperial history, and the imperial history under its banner is the students and disciples of the cabinet members, and the number accounts for about 20%.

The third camp is headed by Wang Yucheng, the right capital of the imperial history, who does not have much intersection with the cabinet and the high-ranking officials and magnates of the five governments and six ministries, and is the middle faction in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and neither of them can be offended.

The reason for this confrontation is not only related to the origin of the Imperial Procuratorate's supervision of the imperial history, but also closely related to the role of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in supervising the hundred officials.

Unlike other ministries and yamen in the capital, not all officials are qualified to enter, and it has an iron threshold, that is, only the Jinshi with the title of the gold list has this honor.

Although the emperor will also issue an edict to allow some officials who are not from Jinshi to enter the Imperial Palace, of course, the number is not large.

Because the officialdom pays attention to the orthodoxy of origin, the imperial history of non-jinshi is not only despised in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but also the deterrent power in the court is not as good as that of the imperial history of Jinshi, giving people a feeling that the name is not right.

Wang Yucheng, the right capital of the imperial history, was not born as a jinshi, and entered the Imperial Court by the grace of Emperor Yongle, and worked all the way to the position of the right capital imperial history from the right deputy capital imperial history.

Because he is not a jinshi, Wang Yucheng's highest position in the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court of the Right Capital stopped at the Imperial History of the Right Capital, and he had no chance to get involved in the Imperial History of the Left Capital, the highest of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Palace.

In each session, the emperor will appoint important ministers of the court to serve as the chief examiner, so that the current Jinshi will become the protégé of the chief examiner, and naturally take the chief examiner as the first to look forward.

In addition to the importance of the examination and the need for high-ranking officials and elites in the court to suppress the battle, there is another important reason, that is, the emperor hopes to cultivate different forces in the court, so that the various forces are in a balanced situation in the struggle, and then consolidate the imperial power.

There are only a few cabinet members inside, and the protégés in the Imperial Court are naturally not as many as those officials in the six departments, so the number of imperial historians under his command is naturally at a disadvantage, and the relationship between the two sides is tense and very tense.

Since Chen Tianxun presided over the trial of the corruption case of the Jingtongcang of the Ministry of Households, his status in the Metropolitan Procuratorate has risen rapidly, and the case has not only been completed in a short time, but also clean and beautiful, which can be called perfect, so that the other imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate have to be convinced.

Then, no one would have thought that Li Yuntian had begun to work hard to secretly investigate this matter as early as a year ago, and Chen Tianxun was just picking a peach.

There were rumors in the Metropolitan Procuratorate that Chen Tianxun would be promoted to the left deputy imperial history because of his meritorious service in handling the Jingtongcang case, and Fan Bin, the left deputy imperial historian who was good friends with the Han king, would be transferred out of the Imperial Procuratorate.

However, with the formation of the five governments and six ministries to fight against the cabinet, Fan Bin's position has been invisibly stabilized, as long as the alliance of the five governments and six ministries exists, then he will not leave the Metropolitan Procuratorate, in the face of the strong counterattack of the five governments and six ministries, it is not easy for the cabinet to push Chen Tianxun to the throne.

Because Li Yuntian is a jinshi of Xin Chouke, and Yang Shiqi is the chief examiner of the current session, he is naturally regarded as a member of the cabinet, which is also something Li Yuntian has no choice about, and the matter of his background is not something he can choose.

After three or four years of study, the Jinshi from the Xin Chou Branch of the Metropolitan Procuratorate have been corrected one after another, becoming the official supervision of the imperial history, and are divided into the thirteen supervision of the imperial history yamen.

Li Yuntian is not only a celebrity in front of Emperor Hong Xi, but also has a very good relationship with those who were the same year as Xin Chouke, and naturally became the leader of the Imperial History of Xin Chouke's supervision in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and everyone looked forward to it.

Although the imperial history of the cabinet and the five governments and six ministries often attack each other, no one has ever dared to provoke Li Yuntian, the reason is very simple, first, Li Yuntian has no handle outside, and second, everyone knows that he is not easy to provoke.

Not to mention, Niu An, the head of Jingtongcang in the Jingtongcang case, was taken down by Li Yuntianbing without blood, which directly led to the imprisonment of Bai Yuanren, the left waiter of the household department.

Among the imperial histories of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the most feared of Li Yuntian is Cui Hui, the Guizhou Provincial Inspector of the Imperial Inspectorate, who designed Li Yuntian when he was elected as the Imperial Governor of Jiangxi more than two years ago.

Now that Li Yuntian is thriving in the officialdom, he naturally has to be worried, for fear of when he will be planted in Li Yuntian's hands.

"Cui Xunpress, today's kindness is remembered by the official, if he has a fate in the future, the official will definitely double his dedication!"

Cui Hui will never forget the words that Li Yuntian said with sharp eyes when he broke up with him in Jiangxi, he didn't mind at first, thinking that Li Yuntian was just opening his mouth to intimidate him, how capable can a small magistrate be?

But since Li Yuntian was suddenly transferred to the capital by Emperor Yongle, and quietly became a celebrity around Emperor Hong Xi in the capital, which made him uneasy to sleep and restless, he always felt that Li Yuntian had a sharp blade behind his back, and he could give him a knife at any time.
