Hallym Temple.

Yang Shen went to see Shi Xuan, a bachelor from Hanlin, that day, and when he came back, he called Yu Chengxun and Ye Guizhang to his bachelor's room, and both of them didn't understand what he was going to do.

Yang Shen said, "Why hasn't there been any news of Jingdao recently?"

Yu Chengxun and Ye Guizhang couldn't help but glance at each other, both of them had questions in their hearts, did they call us just to ask where Zhu Hao was?

"Yongxiu, why are you asking about Jingdao's whereabouts? Don't you know about him, I don't want to come to the Hanlin Academy from the bottom of my heart, you and I can't see his figure in the Hanlin Academy."

After all, Yu Chengxun and Yang Shen have a deeper personal relationship, and it is nothing to speak in such a ridiculous tone.

Yang Shen shook his head: "I sent people to his house and the places he often went to look for him, and I also left a message, but there was no news." Ye Guizhang couldn't help the curiosity in his heart and asked, "What are you doing with cultivating to find respect?"

At this time, Yang Shen took out what looked like an official document and handed it to the two: "Recently, there will be a big change in the official position of the Hanlin Academy, and there may be another Hanlin Bachelor······ In addition, three or four people will be selected from the revision to be read and lectured. For the rest of the official positions at all levels, capable people will also be selected for promotion."

As soon as these words came out, Yu Chengxun and Ye Guizhang both showed strange looks on their faces.

Because the Jinshi in the second year of Jiajing did not hold the selection of the Jishi, now there are some "green and yellow" in the Hanlin Academy, and there are not many people.

"Is the information reliable?"

Yu Chengxun looked at that thing carefully, it was just a list of incumbents of the Hanlin Academy that Shi Ban gave Yang Shen, it seemed that there was no specific charter at all, everything was just speculation, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Ye Guizhang asked, "What does this matter have to do with Jingdao?" Yu Chengxun couldn't help but look sideways at Ye Guizhang.

Your Ye Guizhang's words are a little too direct, right?

Even if you think that Yang Shen is unreasonable to find Zhu Hao, you can't say that the promotion in the Hanlin Academy has nothing to do with Zhu Hao, isn't Zhu Hao just like you and me from the Sixth Rank Historian?

Yu Chengxun blinked his eyes and said, "I want to use the meaning of Xiu, I want Jingdao to go to the new Hanlin Scholar to find out the news, right?" It means that Yang Shen wants Zhu Hao to go to Tang Yin to inquire about the authenticity of this matter, as well as the specific promotion principles.

Yang Shen didn't answer positively, if he admitted it, it means that he had been using Zhu Hao before······ is obviously in an opposing position with Tang Yin, and every time he sends Zhu Hao to inquire, isn't this a use?

In fact, Yang Shen didn't exactly ask Zhu Hao to find out the news, after all, there was a "little secret" between him and Zhu Hao, and he said at the moment: "Jingdao is also a member of my Hanlin Academy, I want to see if he is enterprising about it."

Ye Guizhang said bluntly: "In terms of seniority, I am afraid that Jingdao is not enough to be promoted."

Yu Chengxun smiled: "Not necessarily, Jingdao has been taking the exam for three years, and besides, he now has a gentleman with a bachelor's degree from Hanlin as a backer, who said that he must have no chance?"

It's ridiculous again, but it sounds more uncomfortable to Ye Guizhang.

Zhu Hao is obviously indifferent to his career, and he is also an abandoned marginal figure in the court, how come when it comes to promotion, he seems to have a chance better than anyone else, and even Yang Shen has to help Zhu Hao?

Yu Chengxun immediately asked the doubts in his heart: "Do you want to help Jingdao with cultivation?" If he can be promoted to read and speak, he may not think about being transferred again."

Yang Shen looked at the two of them, did not answer directly, and said, "And this autumn lecture has ended, even if you choose to read and speak, it is also to prepare for the next spring lecture, no matter who is promoted, there will be no substantial change in the errand in the past few months.

"I just want to ask him what he means, and I don't mean to help or not help. Don't think too much about it, go back and prepare first, if there is really a promotion in the future, there must be specific assessment standards, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public. It's kind of a good idea to give you advance notice."

.....

Fengtian Temple, the scene of the court meeting.

Qiao Yu, the secretary of the ministry, once again resigned on the grounds that he was infected with a vicious disease and could not support government affairs, at this time

It was less than ten days before the second assistant Mao Ji Zhishi, and Zhu Si did not directly allow Qiao Yu Zhishi, Wen Yan was relieved, and ordered the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat him.

All the ministers felt that Qiao Yuzhishi had been in the last few days.

On the same day, the court discussed and elected Qin Jin as the secretary of the household department, and the position of the secretary of the household department that had been pending for nearly a month was finally decided. At the end of the court meeting, Zhu Si summoned four scholars from the cabinet and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites at the Qianqing Palace.

Originally, these people thought that the new emperor was going to hold a big ceremony again, but the emperor called people to the queen and only informed them about the addition of the "Bachelor of the Chamber" again.

"Your Majesty, isn't there already one? Why do you need to have another one?" Jiang Mian, as the first assistant, directly questioned the emperor.

At present, he has far less power to speak in the cabinet and the court than Yang Ting and Gang Zhishi.

Speaking of the cabinet alone, Mao Ji's departure, and Huang Pu's accession, Jiang Mian almost became a lonely person in the cabinet, and even the court felt that Jiang Mian's position as the first assistant could not be left after the year.

Zhu Sidao: "Mr. Tang, as my mentor, has always been easy-going when he was in Xingwangfu, without the slightest sense of fighting and enterprising. I made him a Hanlin Scholar to give him a glorious position before he became a scholar, not to let him really participate in the ceremony······ I need an insightful man who can be promoted to the rank of Hanlin Scholar in order to facilitate the development of the Rites."

The emperor actually felt that Tang Yin was incompetent? Incompetent, you still choose him?

Just to give him a position where he can pretend to be forced?

Now that you choose someone who can work, doesn't it mean that we will have to worry about this Master of the Speaker Hanlin coming out to make trouble every day, as we did before?

"Do you have a good candidate?" Zhu Si asked.

Jiang Mian didn't say anything, at this time, he was looking for a scholar to come out, isn't it clearly against the mainstream views of the DPRK and China? Then the person I recommend, can the emperor accept?

I still don't come out to make myself angry.

The second assistant Fei Hong walked and said, "Your Majesty, the two scholars of the Hanlin Academy, Li Tingxiang and Liu Long, may be suitable for this errand." Now the distribution of official positions in the Hanlin Academy is rather strange.

There are not only some old people, but also some newcomers, as well as the existence of exceptional promotions, such as Yang Shen, a bachelor of waiting.

Now there are three attendant scholars at once, and since the emperor wants to choose a new Hanlin scholar, he should be promoted from the existing three attendant scholars······ Now Da Ming doesn't even have a bachelor's degree.

Zhu Si shook his head directly: "It's not good, I don't think it's appropriate, why don't you go back and discuss it, and then make a recommendation at the court meeting tomorrow!" ......

······.

The emperor let the five of them leave after letting out the news again, and the five of them hadn't even officially discussed something serious with the emperor. Out of the Qianqing Palace, Xi Shu asked directly, "What does Your Majesty mean by this?"

The four members of the cabinet all looked at him, as if to say, you are very interesting as a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, you are responsible for presiding over the Great Rites for the emperor, and you are not in the same group as us, can you not know what the emperor's intentions are?

Liu Chun seemed to be unintentional, and said with emotion: "I think Your Majesty intends to cultivate Zhang Bingyong These people to discuss the gifts, I heard that Your Majesty also summoned several officials from Nanjing to the capital before, saying that they were arranged to be used in the Hanlin Academy."

Liu Chun said, but looked at Huang Zhan.

In the past, there was not a single person from the high-level of the imperial court, at most there were a few neutrals, and the neutral faction could only keep up with the orthodox faction due to the situation. But now the situation is different.

Of these five people alone, the Yili faction accounted for two, Liu Chun and Fei Hong were still neutrals in the traditional sense, and the staunch orthodox faction was only Jiang Mian, who had not been in the dynasty for much time.

Jiang Mian asked, "Gongxian, do you know the details?"

Huang Zan shook his head: "Your Majesty didn't explain it in advance, or really let the court push at the court meeting, if it is said that it is intended to be cultivated and used, I don't think it is possible, it is not long to be used in the court, how can you be qualified to rank as a bachelor of Hanlin?"

Liu Chun smiled and said, "You can't say that, Bohu has only been in the court for two or three years, so it's not ······ now." That being said, it seems that even Jiang Mian feels that Tang Yin's situation is different.

When Yuan Zonggao entered the court, he directly entered the cabinet as a cabinet elder.

As a result, he died not long after, and Tang Yin naturally became the successor of Yuan Zonggao's will, but Tang Yin was forced by Yang Tinghe and had no chance to be promoted, but now as long as he does not let a person enter the cabinet as a cabinet elder, everything is negotiable.

The group continued on their way.

Fei Hong asked, "What about ······ Your Majesty's preferred candidate for the Hanlin Bachelor, who else but Bing Yong?" It's a bit of a problem.

Several people looked at each other, as if they were all thinking, in addition to Zhang Xuan, the emperor also wanted to use someone from the Rite faction. No one seems to be qualified to go up.

Huang Zan said, "Isn't there a Changfu?" It's Zhang Bangqi.

Liu Chun shook his head: "I don't think so, Chang Fu has an easy-going personality, he never argues with others after entering the Hanlin Academy, it has long been rumored that His Majesty is going to transfer him to the Sixth Department to serve, I think there is someone else."

Now Liu Chun's thinking is very different from before.

He knew Zhu Hao's position in the new emperor's forces, if the emperor intended to cultivate whom······ That must be the priority cultivation of Zhu Hao. But he also felt that there was a certain problem in promoting Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao is nominally against the ceremony, and his time in the court is also short, and he will be like Zhang Xuan, and he will be directly promoted to a bachelor of Hanlin, which is difficult to convince the public. Yang Shen has been in the court for at least nine years to complete the exam, while Zhu Hao has not completed the exam for three years strictly speaking, so it is lonely.

If it weren't for Zhang Xuan and Zhu Hao, who would the emperor want to promote?

Jiang Mian originally had something to say, but because Xi Shu of the Parliamentary Rite faction was present, Xi Shu was not a member of the cabinet, so he didn't say anything.

The four members of the cabinet returned to the cabinet room, and Jiang Mian finally couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty's intention may force me to leave the court, and I will ask for my resignation tomorrow, please understand."

Fei Hong hurriedly comforted: "Things are not at this point, it doesn't have to be like this!"

Jiang Mian raised his hand to interrupt Fei Hong's words, and said, "Recently, Your Majesty has re-introduced the Great Rites Proposal several times, the purpose is to arrange personnel for the DPRK and China, I have occupied the position of first assistant for a long time, it will inevitably be annoying, so it is better to return to my hometown early to recuperate, so as not to be teased again."

"This ·····"

At this moment, even Huang Zan of the Yili faction was a little uncomfortable.

Jiang Mian obviously felt that Zhu Si's purpose was to drive him away, and even regarded this as the emperor's teasing, which was really sad and pitiful.
