Yang Tinghe was naturally very unwilling.

The new emperor was elected by him, so everything should be carried out according to his logic, although he did not mean to be a powerful minister, but the current situation pushed him to his current position, and the court respected him, why should he let a clan with no background make waves in the court?

"Elder Yang Ge, it's been discussed, can you take a look?"

Li Tingxiang, a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy, took a draft recital and came to Yang Tinghe, which was the result of the meeting.

Yang Tinghe only glanced at it roughly and nodded.

The discussion has been fruitful, and Yang Tinghe waved his hand for this recital, and let the people from the Ministry of Rites take it away, which means don't expect me to agree to the joint signature of everyone present, I will not bear this kind of "infamy", you can deal with it yourself.

The assembly ended.

Yang Tinghe walked to the cabinet duty room, and Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, followed.

"Your Majesty's attitude is resolute this time, but I am afraid that there is a high-ranking person behind him, and the means used are very people can come up with, so we should be careful and vigilant."

Mao Cheng put forward an idea.

It is impossible for the emperor to suddenly become so resolute, there must be someone behind it.

Yang Tinghe said: "What do you think? ”

Mao Cheng said: "From the return of the younger brother of the princess of Xingwangfu to Beijing, to the submission of the court for discussion, it may have been designed by someone...... Most of the Jiang family's words were also taught to say that, and His Majesty used his words to pressure the ministers with the gift of great filial piety, don't you think Your Majesty's actions are too deliberate? ”

Of course, Yang Tinghe saw it.

But he was too embarrassed to say.

After all, letting Jiang take his turn to convey Princess Jiang's meaning to the court was approved by his Yang Tinghe, and now that I know that this matter was carefully calculated, don't I want to lose face?

What is the significance of your Mao Cheng's hindsight?

"Who else is with Your Majesty?" What Yang Tinghe means, you can't just say that someone designed it, you have to say who gave advice to the emperor.

Mao Cheng sighed: "This is puzzling...... Which courtier dared to coerce the minister into agreeing to welcome His Majesty's biological mother into the palace with the act of a king? I am afraid that such things are not done by ordinary civil servants, or ......"

Mao Cheng didn't finish his words, he just wanted to remind Yang Tinghe - look at the emperor's side, who might use such unreasonable means?

Is that person's name about to come out?

Yang Tinghe said: "You mean Tang Yin? ”

Mao Cheng shook his head: "I'm not sure at the moment, but I heard that recently he took care of the Huangzhuang fields as an old man in the palace, and everything that should be done before the autumn was solved in one go, and this person's ability should not be underestimated...... He has never had any career experience before, and he was so resolute when he first became an official, but he was afraid that he would have good ability. ”

Yang Tinghe's face was dark, he had long hated Tang Yin, and even had the intention of getting rid of it.

But now Tang Yin has not made any mistakes, and he has raised people as the head of the household, although this kind of thing is rare, but there are not a few people who have had such experiences since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and it cannot be said that the emperor's appointment of Tang Yin is cronyism, and Yang Weicong has not been used before? And Yang Weicong's actions were still denied by Yang Tinghe himself.

It was also with his acquiescence that Tang Yin successfully ascended to the throne.

"Then find more people to come into contact with him, or to admonish, or to spur him to teach, and since he does things without common sense, then teach him until he follows common sense...... If he wants to be an official in the DPRK for a long time, he can't just rely on some ingenuity and cunning, if he understands this, and wants to make a difference in the DPRK in the future, he will inevitably follow the advice! ”

Yang Tinghe gave Mao Cheng a task.

Find someone to "beat" Tang Yin.

Tang Yin now seems to be favored by the new emperor, has the opportunity to join the court, and is still stealthy behind the scenes.

But after all, you will have to mix in the Wenchen circle in the future, if you want to make a name for yourself, leave your name in history, or make a difference in officialdom, you have to do it according to the ideas of Confucian officials, otherwise I will try my best to suppress you, drive you out of Beijing, and rise and fall so that you will never come back.

……

……

In any case, Zhu Si has made great progress in the dispute over the Great Rites.

Following.

Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, played and proposed to Xingxian Wang as the "Xingxian Emperor", but the emperor should call it "Huang Shukao", with Princess Jiang as the "Xingxian Queen", and his grandmother Xianzong Guifei Shao as the "Empress Dowager".

On his parents' side, Zhu Si couldn't win the throne, but there was a way to win the name of the queen mother for his grandmother.

After all, since ancient times, after becoming the emperor, he will posthumously present his mother as the queen mother, and in the case of the first emperor having a queen, he pursued a joint burial with the first emperor, and now he is just a grandson to fight for the name of the queen mother for his grandmother, and Concubine Shao is also the concubine of Emperor Xianzong, and the imperial concubine is the queen mother and does not violate the etiquette law.

Because Princess Jiang has never been a queen, even if her son is the emperor, her husband is not the emperor, even if she is named "Emperor Xingxian", the word "emperor" is not added, which means that Princess Jiang is still not the queen mother, but entered the palace as the emperor's biological mother, the queen mother.

The controversy over the Great Gifts Debate has come to an end for the time being.

Wenchen experienced violent ups and downs in just three months, and everyone was anxious.

At this time, many people were wondering in their hearts, since the emperor had won the opportunity to support his mother in the palace, he shouldn't make any more trouble, right?

That should be the end of it!

Zhu Si's face in the court was full of gratitude, and he choked up and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I didn't expect that you would make changes for me, and understand my desire to serve my mother, I have thanked you here." ”

The ministers thought to themselves, as long as you don't toss anymore, it will be our greatest thanks.

Immediately, Zhu Si changed his words: "Now that the first king is the first emperor, should we build a temple for him near the Jingshi Taimiao for my daily sacrifices?" ”

Minister Present: "......"

Didn't you say that you would posthumously give your father an "emperor" and give your mother a "queen mother", and the matter would be over?

"The Point Guard Is Here"

Why do you still want to build a temple for your father?

Mao Cheng came out and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's inappropriate. ”

Zhu Siqi said: "What's wrong?" I didn't ask for the first emperor's spiritual seat to be sent to the Taimiao, nor did I rank with the emperors of Daxing, so can't you meet this request? If I want to sacrifice the first emperor in the future, do I have to go back to Anlu to sacrifice? ”

Mao Cheng's head grew when he heard it.

Sure enough, you can't hold back!

The enemy advances and I retreat, this is allowed to go down, but I am afraid that there will be a cliff behind me.

Mao Cheng could only look at Yang Tinghe with a pleading gaze, as if to say, you were the one who insisted on the Great Rites Discussion at the beginning, and you were the one who took the lead in compromising, and now that the emperor has a problem again, will you also solve it?

Don't let us be cannon fodder!

Even if we don't want to do this kind of thing, it is not convincing to say it, and you, Yang Tinghe, are the one who has the right to speak in the court.

Yang Tinghe came out with a dark face and said, "Your Majesty, let's discuss this matter later." ”

Even Yang Tinghe was annoyed.

Let you take a step, I wanted to take a step back and be safe, who knew that you were not going to do it all the time?

Zhu Si took out the demeanor of a filial son again: "I just want to have a place to talk to the first emperor during the Spring and Autumn Festival, why can't you fulfill me?" I ......"

When the minister heard this, he said in his heart, don't you want to say again, if you don't build a temple for Lao Tzu's father, Lao Tzu will pick and choose not to do it, right?

But Zhu Si only sighed, but did not say any more radical words: "You are all sons of man, you should understand my thoughts, who doesn't have a hall to support?" Isn't it true that the folk ancestral hall can't be honored by the biological parents? Okay, so let's do it for now. After you go back, you will discuss it carefully, and then we will talk about it later. ”

……

……

It seems that the emperor has temporarily died down, but the ministers present all deeply understand that the emperor does not intend to give up, and it is estimated that a whole bunch of moths will come out when he turns back, and these ministers present will still be anxious.

After coming out of Fengtian Palace, Mao Cheng hurriedly caught up with Yang Tinghe and said: "Your Majesty wants to build a temple, and you should strictly refuse." ”

Yang Tinghe was very annoyed, why didn't you say it just now?

What's the use of telling me all this now?

Jiang Mian said on the side: "Since you agree to let Your Majesty set up a Xingxian King to present the emperor for Xingxian Emperor, and there is legal support for the first emperor to build a temple, is this more serious than the matter of the first king posthumously giving the first emperor?" ”

It means that it is we who compromise first, since we have all agreed to posthumously crown King Xingxian as Emperor Xingxian, even if the word emperor is not added, but legally speaking, the new emperor won.

Why don't you agree to give a posthumous gift to a vassal king who is the emperor to build a temple in Beijing?

The emperor also said that Emperor Xingxian has no imperial blessing until now, so he will not force himself to enter the temple, so he will only worship separately, isn't this a concession from the emperor?

You let the little emperor continue to argue, and you have to posthumously present his father with the title of "emperor", and he wants to be listed in the Taimiao, where is the spirit card of Zhu Youqi?

Never been an emperor, after Zhu Houzhao?

But Zhu Youqi has always been Wuzong's uncle, and he died earlier than Wuzong.

What Jiang Mian wants to explain is that since he has taken a step back, he should stop dwelling on such trivial matters, it is better to fulfill the little emperor and let him build a temple for his father, as long as he doesn't quarrel about other things.

Mao Cheng said: "But until now, Your Majesty has not officially issued an edict, with His Majesty Daxing Xiaozong as the imperial examination. ”

He originally thought that Yang Tinghe would give a plan, such as talking to the emperor and asking him to stop being persistent, and then everyone took a step back, explained their demands, and stopped arguing in the future.

Unexpectedly, Yang Tinghe also seemed to see that the emperor just wanted to suppress the civil officials with the matter of the Great Rites, and constantly competed with the civil officials, taking the opportunity to form a gang in the court, and also to see who stood on Yang Tinghe's side and who stood on the emperor's side, so as to win people's hearts and prepare for the suppression of dissidents in the future.

Since it is clear that the little emperor will definitely not give up, it is futile to make any compromise now.

"Let's take one step at a time!"

Yang Tinghe didn't answer the question directly, and went straight to the cabinet room.

Mao Cheng stood in place, looking at Yang Tinghe who was gradually moving away, and his heart was also very entangled.

Mao Cheng thought in his heart: "Isn't this Yang Zhongtang who regretted yesterday's decision, but now he wants to take the blame for compromise on us people, right?" This court official is getting more and more difficult to be! ”
