Chapter 252: Grace (9th Update)
The rank of the Ming Dynasty is very complicated, but everyone is familiar with it, most of them are martial arts positions, after all, only martial artists have this demand, they killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions, of course, they should be awarded martial honors. But the problem is that the Ming Dynasty did have Wenxun, but it was ...... Later, it was not very popular, after all, the world was peaceful, what merit did the literati make? Can you still go into battle and kill the enemy?
So the crux of the matter is here, Ye Chunqiu is a martial artist, but he can't be awarded martial arts, unless you don't want him to continue the imperial examination.
If this is the case, this is almost equivalent to sending Ye Chunqiu into hell.
In this era, the civil and military affairs, military attachés or martial artists, no matter how prominent they are, even if they are ranked in the first and second grades, they are also discriminated against, and even more, the military attachés of the second rank in the DPRK can still be scolded by the imperial history of the seventh grade.
Even in the end, in the locality, a military attache of the third or fourth rank can almost be called by the local officials of the sixth or seventh rank like a head.
Of course, if you enter the pro-army military position, it is obviously better than the ordinary military position, but it is still a humble status and is not very worthy of being looked down upon.
Now you give Ye Chunqiu martial arts, which is equivalent to cutting off Ye Chunqiu's road to the imperial examination. And this Ye Chunqiu is already Zhejiang Xie Yuan, and he will be on the list in the future, there is great hope, how can people be willing to accept martial arts, unless there is water in their heads.
Li Dongyang smiled and said: "In this case, let's give a corrected Shuyi, the title, he should be named an earl, after all, he is young, and the earl is also appropriate, probably ...... That's it, what do you think? ”
It is indeed a headache for a person to make a military exploit, and it is indeed a headache to correct Shu Yi, who is just a civil officer, belongs to the fifth grade, and seems to be very inconspicuous, but it is quite noble, which is a kind of glory. As for the title of an earl, the Ming Dynasty has arrived, and now the title of the foreign surname is only the third class, which is nothing more than the duke and uncle, and the earl is the lowest, but it is equivalent to having the income of drought and flood protection.
This means that even if Ye Chunqiu is not diligent now, he can rely on this Wenxun and the earl to eat, of course...... If Ye Chunqiu can go further, then he will become the first nobleman in the world to win the Jinshi, and this unique glory alone will be like a tiger with wings for his future career.
Most of the nobles of the Ming Dynasty are mixed and waiting for death, and entering the rank with an earl is definitely unprecedented.
Liu Jian nodded with a smile and said, "It's good, but I'm afraid of hurting him." In that case, so be it, report to the palace and ask Your Majesty for approval. ”
Liu Jian's sentence hurt him, but it is also the truth, a scholar, became an earl, most of the imperial examinations have little hope, even if there is talent, but slowly abandoned, indulged in enjoyment, without that kind of urgency, it would be strange to be able to pass the exam, after all, this Ming Dynasty, there is no precedent for a person with a knighthood to be a jinshi, placed in the past dynasties, it is also rare, it is simply a rare animal.
When everyone saw Liu Jian's words, they all bowed, but they didn't seal it, they couldn't say it, they sealed it, although they felt that it was a pity, but after all, this was someone's creation, and it was not easy to say anything.
Even Xie Qian said lazily: "The old man looked at the music, and the Ye Chunqiu ...... Not like a reader. ”
Unlike scholars, this sentence came out of Xie Ge's mouth, which is equivalent to scolding, which is as if they think that someone is like a scholar, then it is probably a very heavy compliment.
Everyone laughed, but Li Dongyang was thoughtful and did not echo it.
After some discussion, the crowd dispersed.
That move, although the merit of the pacification of the Japanese, but for the ministers in the cabinet, they pay more attention to the pacification of the Japanese itself and its influence, as for who pacified the Japanese invaders, what kind of military strategy this person has, it is not their concern, marching and fighting, after all, is a 'technique', and it cannot be on the elegant hall.
…………………………
When the holy decree arrived, it was Gonggong Cao who came to promulgate the decree, and Gonggong Cao was obviously very interested in Ye Chunqiu and was willing to have more contact with Ye Chunqiu, so he volunteered.
Ye Jing's father and son knew that there would be a holy decree, and they were busy putting up an incense case to receive the decree, Cao Gonggong smiled and chanted the holy decree, and when he heard the edict 'Correct Shu Yi', Ye Jing frowned, Yi is very understandable, naturally it is an official name, but a Shu has been added to it, in fact, it is also very easy to understand, nothing more than ...... It is equivalent to telling you that you are not a concubine, but a concubine, of course, there is no sarcasm that Ye Chunqiu is a concubine, but no, this is equivalent to an official position such as deputy, right, Tongzhi, and Tongtong, Ye Jing most of them feel unlucky.
And as for this Wenxun, although it is very noble, for Ye Chunqiu and Ye Jing, it is actually not a great thing, Ye Chunqiu is a person, once he is a high school scholar, what is a Wenxun?
But the real highlight is the next Fenghuabo.
When a Fenghua Uncle read it out, Cao Gonggong's eyes lit up, tsk, a Fenghua Uncle is enough to eat for a lifetime, this Spring and Autumn Period is really a creation.
He finished reading the will, and finally dragged out the last note: "Ye Chunqiu, take the will." ”
Ye Chunqiu stood up, looked at Gonggong Cao with a smile, and said, "The student doesn't accept the order. ”
Gonggong Cao originally planned to hand over the will to Ye Chunqiu, and congratulated him a few words, who would have expected that Ye Chunqiu would come with so many sentences, and Gonggong Cao was so frightened that his face turned blue: "What, there is a problem with the holy decree, Chunqiu, what do you mean?" Haven't we heard of not accepting orders? ”
Ye Jing was also stunned, couldn't help but look at Ye Chunqiu, and said, "Chunqiu, why is this, this is the grace of the imperial court." ”
Ye Jing was also stunned, couldn't help but look at Ye Chunqiu, and said, "Chunqiu, why is this, this is the grace of the imperial court." ”
For this so-called reward, Ye Chunqiu first changed from surprise to calm.
Knighted?
Well, it's really beneficial, but I'm already Xie Yuan, and I'm still young, even if I can't test next time, but next time, will I still stumble?
This reward for yourself...... Although it is also rich, but the Ming Dynasty's different surname is not so easy to be, especially after the change of Tumubao, the merits are almost wiped out, and the civil official group officially stepped onto the stage, these lords have almost become a thorn in the eye of the imperial historians, a thorn in the flesh, impeachment if they disagree, and a fart may be punished.
And himself, after all, is still young, but he is just a small person, holding this title, just like a child holding a gold ingot.
