Sun Jiao, as Zhu Hao speculated, continued to resign, and his words became more and more intense each time.

But now the court doesn't care too much about whether Sun Jiao comes back, and even Yang Tinghe seems to know that even if the new emperor doesn't use Sun Jiao, he will use other old court officials, and now the most headache for civil officials is that the little emperor welcomes Princess Jiang into the palace with the number of courtesies from the queen mother.

On this day, there was a lot of noise in the court.

"I am already the Son of Heaven, my mother and concubine have no one to support, I am just filial piety, but you say that I have messed up the etiquette? I would like to ask, is it mentioned in the Book of Rites that if the mother is alive and has no brothers, but he will inherit the name of someone else, and ignore his mother? ”

Zhu Si's attitude was extremely resolute.

This time it was not a dispute between ministers, it was completely an argument between the emperor and a group of ministers.

From beginning to end, the cabinet and the six Shangshu, Jiuqing, etc. did not come out to speak, and the people who argued with the emperor were all to Shizhong, Hanlin Bachelor and others, these people quoted scriptures in order to let the emperor accept the great gift set before, as for Zhang Zhang's previous performance, although it caused waves in the court, but obviously no one dared to agree with it.

A court discussion broke up unhappily.

……

……

After going back, Yang Ting and the people of the faction naturally riveted their strength and fought with reason.

Of course, it will not be Yang Tinghe who will be at the forefront, but only Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

But now Mao Cheng feels that he is about to be unable to hold on, and he has recently resigned twice...... Obviously, he didn't want to stay on the cusp of the storm, and he should have come out to lead the discussion of the big ceremony in the court discussion that day, but no matter how many times Yang Tinghe gave him a look, he was indifferent, and finally just watched those middle-level officials debate with the emperor.

Hallym Courtyard.

Zhu Hao arrived late in the morning, and after briefly sorting out the manuscripts for a while, he was ready to leave, and it was his turn to rest in the afternoon.

You don't have to come back in the future......

It happens to be the Midyear Festival.

Today, the people of the Hanlin Academy are either thinking about sacrificing their ancestors, or they are thinking about going out of the city to play and relax while they are resting.

No one is concentrating on their work.

When he was about to leave at noon, Yu Chengxun came over and said that he was inviting Zhu Hao to dinner.

"Brother Yu, don't say goodbye, I've already arranged some things here, so I won't go to join in the fun." Zhu Hao smiled and declined.

Yu Chengxun asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhu Hao said: "Family affairs, recently my mother is going to come to Beijing from her hometown. ”

Yu Chengxun asked suspiciously: "Aren't you from the Zhu family of Jinyi Weiqianhu?" The Zhu family seems to be in Jingshi, right? ”

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "My mother has always been in Anlu before, and now she is also in Anlu, and the property left by my father is also there, and my homeland is hard to leave...... It's just that now that I have been admitted to the Jinshi examination, I want to take my mother to Beijing to be raised. ”

Yu Chengxun sighed: "It's really a filial son, when Lingtang arrives in Beijing, he will definitely visit him in the next place." ”

"Maybe it's inconvenient, right?"

Zhu Hao shook his head.

"Oh, look at me, there's something inconvenient...... However, since we're friends, it shouldn't be a problem to come and visit Lingtang, right? ”

Yu Chengxun wanted to have a good relationship with Zhu Hao, so he didn't feel anything about visiting the frost woman.

At present, Zhu Hao has been valued by Yang Shen, although it has not yet been used by Yang Tinghe, but being valued by Yang Shenqi is the first step for Zhu Hao to gain a firm foothold in the Hanlin Academy.

Yu Chengxun and Zhu Hao went out of the repair room together, and when they were about to reach the gate of the Hanlin Academy, Yu Chengxun said: "Your Majesty is quite stubborn in taking the princess to Beijing, I heard that you have quite an opinion on etiquette, here Master Liu arranged a task, let everyone go back, study the "Book of Rites", and see how to quote the scriptures and refute them, so that Your Majesty is no longer obsessed with receiving the princess into the palace with the gift of the queen mother." ”

Zhu Hao thought for a while.

This time it was quite kind, and if it didn't come up, it would be a joint performance by Zhongxin Jinshi or Hanlin.

But let everyone go back to study the "Book of Rites", is this the coping strategy that Liu Chun came up with?

Zhu Hao said: "Brother Yu, is this what Bachelor Liu meant, or is it ...... What does Brother Yang mean? ”

"Huh."

Yu Chengxun leaned over and whispered, "Sometimes, it's good to pretend to be a lake, don't be more serious...... I know you have a quick mind, but sometimes you can't speak too straightly. ”

After speaking, he gave Zhu Hao a look, which means, you just know that this is Yang Shen's idea.

Now the Hanlin Academy is nominally presided over by Liu Chun, and Feng Xi is the deputy, but in fact, many affairs of the Hanlin Academy, especially those involving the peace and discussion of the Great Ceremony by Yanri, are all handled by Yang Shen behind his back, and Yang Shen has a vague tendency to become a Hanlin scholar with the help of his father's majesty.

Everyone in the Hanlin Academy knows about it, but no one dares to point it out.

……

……

"That's what he said?"

After Yu Chengxun sent Zhu Hao out of the Hanlin Academy, he took the official sedan chair to Yang Mansion to meet Yang Shen.

Yang Shen did not go to the Hanlin Academy that day, and stayed at home to sort out the manuscript, and now the revision of the "Wuzong Record" has entered the final stage of sorting out and entering the manuscript, Yang Tinghe means that before the official compilation of the "Wuzong Record", Yang Shen's name is ranked in the top position of the revision.

Book revision is the most important "political achievement" in the assessment and appointment and dismissal of the Hanlin Academy.

Generally speaking, when an important book is written, the reviser will be promoted to a higher rank at his discretion.

It's hard to think of anything else in the Hallym Academy.

Yu Chengxun sat down, after all, it was the relationship between his brother-in-law and his brother-in-law, and he was a family, and he was not so restrained in private.

Yu Chengxun said with a smile: "I think he speaks very uprightly, and he is not diligent in doing things, but he does not say that he is lazy, in short, he is well versed in the Confucian golden mean...... I really can't see any diligence in him, but he can get the top prize in the exam, and his writing is outstanding...... Hehe. ”

Yang Shen did not refute Yu Chengxun's opinion, and said suddenly: "Maybe it's because I have worked too hard in the past ten years and have been pinned on high hopes, so I don't want to toss myself too much after being admitted to the Jinshi." ”

Yu Chengxun said: "You are from the top of the family, you should understand him, right?" ”

Yang Shen put down the manuscript in his hand, looked at Yu Chengxun and said: "Now the government and the opposition are talking about His Majesty's welcome to the princess, I am not in Hanyuan today, what are the unique insights of the people around me?" ”

"I've never heard anyone talk about ......"

Yu Chengxun is very calm.

This group of idlers in the Hanlin Academy, who would care about the emperor's welcome to his mother? Princess Jiang is not the queen mother, only old-fashioned defenders will pay attention, or careerists like Yang Tinghe.

Zhong Hanlin should be in the vanguard of the discussion, but no one wants to come forward, and he also knows that this kind of thing is thankless.

If you cater to the emperor, you will be unlucky now, because you will offend the head of the court.

And to cater to Yang Tinghe, do you expect Shoufu to be in the court for the rest of his life? The new emperor will be in power one day in the future, will he take revenge for today's events?

Therefore, if they are not forced to the head by others, these noble Hanlin will not say a reason, they can mix it up, and if it is a big deal, they will not know that there is such a thing, and they will not talk about anything casually in front of people.

"Hmm."

Yang Shen nodded.

Yu Chengxun asked: "Yongxiu, I heard that yesterday Fei Lao was a scholar of Wu Yingdian University, and he joined the cabinet with Zhuguo and Shaobao, what is his attitude towards this matter?" ”

Yang Shen said: "This kind of thing will naturally be mentioned by my father, and I still want to think about how to help each other, as a junior, there are not many things that can be done." But I just don't know what strategy His Majesty's side will come up with, right on this...... Or Yuan University, or someone from Xingwangfu, should understand. Go back and meet Zhu Hao, and ask him to visit the old friends of the palace and find out. ”

Yu Chengxun shook his head: "Even if Zhu Hao has contact with the people in Xingfu, those people will not put their hearts on him, what's the use of going?" ”

"How do you know you can't do it without trying? Just give him a word, whether it will succeed or not, depends on his own ability. ”

……

……

The Chinese courtiers saw that the emperor had a tough attitude towards welcoming his mother into the palace.

It is in line with the new emperor's consistent style on the issue of great gifts after he ascended the throne.

This gave the court a headache.

On the one hand, we have to argue on the basis of reason, and on the other hand, we know that doing so may offend the emperor, Tou Tie is naturally not afraid, and feels that there is a "moral etiquette law" to support, and the law does not blame the public, we are just fighting on the basis of the provisions of the Ministry of Etiquette for the great ceremony, there is no violation of justice, afraid of a ball?

Zhu Hao is only an insignificant small role in Yang Tinghe's faction, and he doesn't even have the right to speak in such matters, and at most he is occasionally used as a gunman.

But on the new emperor's side, Zhu Hao is a soul-brain-level figure, and almost all the countermeasures are from him.

In the afternoon, Zhu Si came out of the palace to see Zhu Hao as always, and as soon as they met, they complained, and reprimanded many civil officials for their stubborn and stubborn appearance during the court discussion, and also scolded Yang Tinghe and others for not coming forward to dissuade them, and some were still being-stirring sticks.

"Your Majesty is angry......"

Zhang Zuo saw that Zhu Hao didn't say anything but listened, and hurriedly came out to persuade Zhu Si.

Zhu Sidao: "Can I not be angry?" Now that my mother is in Tongzhou, if I go to pick up my mother, I will be able to go to the capital in two days...... I desperately want to see my mother...... But if this matter can't be discussed, the mother concubine can only go back to Anlu to continue to be the princess of Xing, and she has to pay filial piety to my stepbrother from another family, that group of people is really crazy! ”

"Then stay the course!"

Zhu Hao said.

"Huh?"

Zhu Si looked up at Zhu Hao.

Zhang Zuo was also surprised by Zhu Hao's tone that was neither yin nor yang, as if it was a pastime.

Zhu Hao said: "This kind of thing is to wait for one side to compromise, or wait for each to take a step back, there is no better strategy than that...... As long as His Majesty shows his stubborn side, Yang Ge Lao is also afraid of chaos in the court, and finally it is estimated that he will agree to let the princess enter the palace, and then ......"

"The Queen Mother, it's the Queen Mother."

Zhang Zuo emphasized on the side.

Zhu Si glared at Zhang Zuo: "Don't take a stubble, listen to Zhu Hao." ”

Zhu Hao said: "If the negotiation cannot be achieved on the surface, Your Majesty can also send someone to negotiate with Yang Ge Lao and others, anyway, it will be around for a while." As for the princess, knowing that Her Majesty is in trouble, she will wait in Tongzhou with peace of mind, and maybe the princess can come forward to help Your Majesty. ”

"What's the help?"

Zhu Si asked eagerly.

Zhu Hao smiled and said: "The princess said that she wanted to go back to Anlu, and Your Majesty told the ministers that she wanted to go back to support the princess. It's like buying and selling, if you don't turn your head and show determination, how can the store compromise on the price? ”
