Chapter 912: Spring Dawn
Concubine Hui got the permission of the fourth princess and knew what to do.
The next day, Concubine Hui told the queen about this under the pretext of asking the queen for peace.
has been immersed in the palace for a long time, and she always subconsciously leaves three points of leeway when she talks and does things, so Concubine Hui did not say that her daughter has a deep affection for Du Yiheng, and she secretly agreed, only saying that she took a fancy to Du Yiheng's character and appearance, so she cheekily asked the queen to help ask the Du family what it meant.
But what a smart person the queen is, so even if Concubine Hui didn't explain it, she understood.
In addition, the matter of the fourth princess saving Du Yiheng before was registered with her, so she immediately understood the mind of the fourth princess.
The daughter's family thinks a lot, and the fourth princess has also reached the age of thinking about getting married, Du Yiheng has an extraordinary background, handsome appearance, and good knowledge, and there is nothing strange about the fourth princess's secret promise.
To tell the truth, the queen still likes the four princesses, she doesn't fight or rob, and she doesn't have the kind of domineering vices of other princesses.
But the problem is that Du Yiheng is the only son of the Du family, and the Du family has high hopes for him, after this, Du Yiheng may want to take the old road of the right minister, first serve as Hanlin, then enter the cabinet, and then worship the prime minister, this is the road that the Du family expects Du Yiheng to take, but if Princess Shang, Du Yiheng may be difficult to reuse.
Unless, on the day the prince ascends the throne, Du Yiheng, as the prince's brother-in-law, is really talented, and the prince will not let such a talent drain.
But how could the queen say such a thing, should she curse Emperor Hui for his early death, or should she tell the prince about his ambitions?
Apparently neither.
However, the queen did not refuse Concubine Hui, but responded to Concubine Hui's request and promised to help ask the Du family.
Whether this matter is successful or not, the Du family is in charge of it, she just helps pass on the word.
The queen also planned to find an opportunity to invite the old lady and lady of the Du family to come into the palace to sit down, and then invited the princess to come over and raise the matter.
......
After the fifteenth day of the first month, the great court meeting began, and on the sixteenth, hundreds of officials came to the court to discuss major matters.
Yongning Hou Gu Lin has changed his high-spirited spirit at the beginning of the New Year's Festival, and he is very low-key.
As he expected, the promotion that was still a few signs a year ago was completely over, and no one mentioned it to him again.
And he didn't dare to mention this stubble, even when he was in the court, he tried to reduce his sense of existence as much as possible, for fear that the emperor would notice him, and then reprimand him in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, he would really have no face to see people.
There are clouds in ancient books, those who want to be clear and virtuous in the world, self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country and then leveling the world, as an official of the imperial court, if he can't even govern his own home, how can he assist the monarch to govern the world?
Now that promotion is hopeless, he doesn't want to go home and eat himself completely.
But sometimes things are like this, the so-called fear of what is biased is the true portrayal of Gu Lin at the moment.
He never thought that one day, he would also be impeached by Yushi?!
Seeing that his own ugly thing was told by the imperial doctor, Gu Lin really couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground and get in.
However, the emperor did not be as angry as he expected, but only reprimanded him a few words without pain, and punished him for three months before exposing the matter.
In the face of this punishment of thunder and rain, Gu Lin didn't react for a while, but then he understood why the emperor reacted this way.
It's the beginning of the year, and the spring season has arrived.
Once every three years, it is a major event for the whole country, in front of this kind of important matter, his affairs are a fart, and it is strange that the emperor cares!
Gu Lin felt that he had never liked Chunqiu so much as he did today.
Spring is a major event, up to the court, down to the locality, in February, they are very busy, close to the spring, all over the country have entered Beijing, the court is also busy with exam questions, cleaning the tribute courtyard, arranging the main examination invigilation and other things, many people are busy, like Gu Lin, who has no real power, but is idle.
If it was ordinary, he would definitely take this opportunity to show more in front of Shangfeng, but this time, he just wanted to be a low-key person.
For Gu Lin today, no one pays attention to him, which is the best thing.
In fact, the so-called impeachment of Yushi was not aimed at Gu Lin, but Lu Zheng behind Gu Lin.
Even if Lu Zheng himself knows that he and Gu Lin are not on the same path, others don't think so, and some people think that attacking him through Gu Lin may also be a good way.
But apparently they were wrong.
They probably thought that Lu Zheng would speak for Gu Lin, but they didn't want Lu Zheng to be silent from beginning to end, and the emperor quickly punished him, so they didn't have a chance to attack Lu Zheng again through this matter.
Gu Lin's matter only stirred up a small splash, and it was overshadowed by the sound of discussing the matter of Chunqiu, and there was nothing else at the moment, and it was important to pass this matter.
The emperor also attaches great importance to the triennial spring, and everyone naturally does not dare to find the emperor unhappy at this juncture, which is equivalent to looking for death by himself.
There were endless disputes in the court over the selection of the chief examiner of the Spring Festival, and various factions appeared on the stage one after another, all wanting to occupy an excellent position in this Spring Festival and gather talents for their own faction.
In the end, Emperor Hui personally made a final decision, pointing out Lin Yi, a scholar of the Cabinet University, as the main examiner, and Xu Ziqian, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, as the deputy examiner.
This result made the prince's faction and the eldest prince's faction shut up.
The emperor sent people from the prince's faction and the eldest prince's faction as examiners, and both parties were quite satisfied.
It's just that the emperor's move has also made many officials fall into deep thought, the emperor appointed Lin Yi, a scholar of the Cabinet University, and Xu Ziqian, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, as invigilators, do they only think that these two people are the most suitable for the examiners of this examination, or are they out of other considerations?
For example, the emperor actually chose people in order to contain each other in order to contain each other?
For another example, the emperor had doubts in his heart, so he deliberately tested them like this?
Anyway, no matter how the ministers guessed, the candidate for the invigilator of Chunfu has already been decided, and the next step is to prepare for Chunfu with all their might.
Soon, people from all over the world came to Beijing one after another, and all of a sudden, you could see people dressed as Confucian students everywhere in Kyoto, whether it was restaurants, inns, houses, or even temples and fireworks places, these candidates could be seen everywhere.
They are high-spirited, high-minded, and a group of young people, no one can say for sure, whether these people will become court officials in the future, or the great Confucianism of the world, you know, although the examination is such a thing, although it is important to learn from real learning, but many times, it is also inseparable from luck.
