259 Promotion (2-in-1)

"Universal Chronicles! Xiangbei hasn't given up yet? ”

Ni Qian, who was sitting at the end of the seat, was full of disbelief at the moment, and the shock in his heart was beyond measure.

After all, the sinkhole of "Huanyu Tongzhi" was dug by him for Shen Yichen back then. It can even be said that at the beginning, Ni Qian never thought that this book would be completed one day!

In the follow-up, Ni Qian saw Shen Yichen's persistence and hard work, and also saw the hope of the completion of this book. But going out of the town of Shandong to control the water, without the same environment as the Hanlin Academy and the East Pavilion, it is almost equivalent to giving up halfway.

Even if Shen Yichen is persevering and unwilling to give up repairing the book, if he wants to write the book, he has to return to Beijing for at least three or five years.

As a result, I never expected that this book would be completed in two years!

was also shocked by Ni Qian, as well as the cabinet minister Gao Qian, the closer he was to Shen Yichen, the greater the impact.

I think that when Shen Yichen left the East Pavilion and went out of the town of Shandong to control the water, Gao Qi's gift was the three immortals of the literati, meritorious service, speech, and morality!

The success of water control can be regarded as an immortal achievement.

Guozijian's lectures and speeches are limited by the scope and depth of dissemination, and can only be regarded as half.

But now, with the completion of the "Universal Chronicles", the achievement of writing books and speaking has been achieved. It means that the three immortals of the literati, Shen Yichen, have done the second, and there is only the last virtue that is tested by time!

How can it not be shocking?

As more and more officials found out that it was Huanyu Tongzhi, the discussion became more and more widely disseminated, and even the low-level local officials in the vicinity of Chengtianmen were smacked their tongues.

"Ladies and gentlemen, is it the book that caused the emperor to be angry and dismissed several Hanlin officials in the sixth year of orthodoxy?"

It can be said that it is commonplace for various ministers of the Ming Dynasty to be imprisoned, because they are generally released and reinstated within a few days, which is more like a kind of suppression method used by emperors and ministers.

But as a Hanlin Qinggui was dismissed from office, there has been almost no precedent in the entire Ming Dynasty since the founding of the country, except for political struggles. So even local officials in remote state capitals have heard of it.

"That's right, it's that Universal General Chronicle, known as the General Geography of the Ming Dynasty, and the difficulty of repairing the book is unusually high, and ordinary Hanlin can't write a book at all."

As the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books, which is the best portrayal of this book. It can be seen that the requirements for the compiler's knowledge are very high, otherwise how to describe the thousands of miles of the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Looking at it this way, Shen Shi is really a genius in the world, and he can finish this book between water control."

"The three yuan and the first, the leader of the six yuan, is it a waste of fame?"

All kinds of discussions, even the imperial history who is responsible for the words and deeds of the picket officials, cannot control the scene, and can only let it go.

On the throne, Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen looked at the "Universal Chronicles" in front of him, and was also a little surprised.

No one could have imagined that Shen Yichen did not prepare a congratulatory speech, but gave a bigger surprise.

"Shen Aiqing, this book has been completed?"

Zhu Qizhen asked in a skeptical tone.

You must know that at the beginning, it was five or six Hanlin cultivators, and it took three years to present a bullshit "high imitation version".

Shen Yichen relied on the strength of one person, and also went out of the town to control the water in the middle, can he successfully repair the book in two years?

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has finished cultivating the Universal Tongzhi!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Shen Yichen gave a definite answer.

He relied on his own strength to complete the book and speak!

Before the emperor could reply, Yang Hongze, who was standing beside Shen Yichen, felt a black stumble in front of him.

How is it possible, how is it possible, why can Shen Yichen do it so far?

Yang Hongze questioned frantically in his heart, he really couldn't accept this result.

You must know that in order to suppress Shen Yichen with his literary and intellectual strength at this Zhengdan Dynasty meeting, he prepared this congratulatory message for a month, waiting to announce it to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Among the descendants of the Ming literati, there is not only one Shen Yichen who is radiant, but also I, Yang Hongze, are not inferior to others!

"Becoming an Immortal"

But now in the face of Shen Yichen's completion of the "Universal Chronicles", the congratulatory message he wrote is like a joke, and there is no comparison between the two at all.

In any period of the past dynasties, writing books and words is an immortal achievement, and how many congratulatory speeches can have been passed down for centuries?

There is a total of one stone talent in the world, does Shen Yichen really have eight buckets alone?

"Worthy of being my minister, to the north, you really make me impeccable!"

Not to mention Yang Hongze, even Zhu Qizhen, as the emperor, didn't know how to praise Shen Yichen's talent at this moment.

At the beginning of the year of the Zhengdan Dynasty Meeting, there was a great completion of the book, and this kind of literary luck simply swept away the haze of the previous thorns.

With such a capable minister's assistance, why worry about such a small jumping beam?

However, what the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including the emperor, did not expect was that the bigger surprise was still to come.

I saw Shen Yichen take out a piece of rice paper from the brocade box, and then said: "This is a map drawn by the minister for the Huanyu Tongzhi, and I also invite Your Majesty and the ministers and envoys to take a look." ”

After that, Shen Yichen unfolded this piece of rice paper, and a map of the Ming Dynasty came into everyone's eyes!

In fact, the Ming Dynasty was not as backward as later generations imagined, at least during the period when Zheng He went to the West during the Yongle period, his understanding of the world was far ahead.

The Ming Dynasty not only drew a map of its own territory, but also recorded in Siberia, Korea, the Japanese Kingdom, the Nanyang countries, and even the distant African continent.

Shen Yichen's map of the Ming Dynasty is based on the predecessors and integrates the geographical knowledge of later generations. It makes the proportion data more fine, and the overall is more intuitive and clear.

Zhu Qizhen stared at the Da Ming Kanyu map in Shen Yichen's hand, and even left the throne in excitement, walked down the imperial steps, and stood in front of Shen Yichen and stared at it.

"This, this is my country?"

To be honest, Zhu Qizhen has seen a lot of similar Daming Kanyu maps.

I don't know why, the picture in Shen Yichen's hand can bring a strange psychological impact, as if the Ming Dynasty has a panoramic view of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.

"That's right, this is the majestic mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty!"

Hearing Shen Yichen's confirmation, Zhu Qizhen stretched out his somewhat trembling hand, put it on this picture and stroked it gently.

After a while, Zhu Qizhen set his eyes on the Mobei grassland, and then ordered to the ceremonial officer of Honglu Temple: "Pass it on, let all the ministers and envoys enjoy my Ming Dynasty rivers and mountains together!" ”

After the ceremonial officer received the order, he immediately came to Shen Yichen's side and took over this Ming Kanyu map. Then along the path of the Mukden Temple, pass by the ministers, so that they can also clearly witness this picture.

"How did Shen Shi draw such a detailed map?"

After seeing it, Wang Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, didn't care about the guilt of the king's dereliction of honor, and directly exclaimed.

You must know that in the past, the production of maps in the Ming Dynasty was within the responsibility of the Ministry of Industry. As the head of the first department of the hall, Wang Yi had never seen such a fine map of the Ming Dynasty, how could Shen Yichen, a Hanlin official who specialized in the study of sage books, be more professional than himself?

"The ancients knew the affairs of the world without leaving home, maybe this is the description of Shen Shi's bachelor's degree."

Jin Lian, the secretary of the criminal department, who was standing next to Wang Wei, was a little embarrassed in his tone.

At the beginning of the surrender ceremony, he showed appreciation for Shen Yichen.

I feel that such a young man, presiding over such a big surrender ceremony, does not have the slightest stage fright, and is really out of the dust.

But Shen Yichen "took refuge" in the eunuch party at that time, and later showed a tendency to rule the country by martial arts, which made Jin Lian maintain a kind of vigilance and distance from him.

Now it seems that I really can't use it for Wenchen!

"Cheng Guogong, go out of the door, congratulations."

British Gong Zhang Fu arched his hand to Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, at this moment, even if he was as steady as him, he still couldn't hide the faint envy in his tone.

Most of the relatives of the Ming Dynasty's founding auxiliaries and Fengtianjing's martyrdom have now been passed down to the second or even the third generation.

Compared with the expansion of the territory of the ancestors, Jin Ge Iron Horse. Now this second-generation of honorable relatives, many of them can't resist on their shoulders and can't lift their hands, let alone fight on the battlefield immediately.

Even the British Duke himself, who carefully cultivated Zhang Zhong, the eldest son of the lord, fell into a disability, and could no longer bear the heavy responsibility of the family, so he turned to cultivate the eldest son Zhang Mao.

It's a pity that he hasn't been taught carefully since he was a child, and how many people can be self-taught like Shen Yichen?

This is like Chongzhen in the late Ming Dynasty, who picked up a throne halfway, did not experience orthodox royal education, made a mess on the balance of power, and finally died in the crooked neck tree of the coal mountain.

The unbearable responsibilities of future generations are the root of the envy of the British public Zhang Fu.

"You're welcome, English duke."

Chengguo Gong Zhu Yong returned the salute, but the smile between the corners of his eyes could not be concealed.

He is not only happy that Shen Yichen is today, but also that he can show his talent in front of the emperor and hundreds of civil and military officials. What's more important is this picture of Kanyu, which also hints at Shen Yichen's excellent talent in martial arts.

In the future, if he really fights with the Mongolian iron cavalry in Saibei, he will not have to worry about Shen Yichen having no martial arts ambition!

Compared with the admiration of the Ming Emperor and the Manchu Dynasty, when the envoy saw the map drawn by Shen Yichen, his face instantly turned pale, and even his eyes showed a sense of fear.

There is no other reason, that is, in this map of the Ming Dynasty, the entire territory of Mobei Mongolia is included, and the approximate location of the royal court of the Mongolian tribes is marked!

Is this a coincidence, or is it that the Ming Dynasty has already controlled the movements of the Mongolian tribes, could it be that the plan of the first master is all under Shen Yichen's control?

Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the truth that one can survive a hundred battles, not only the Ming Dynasty civil and military ministers understand, but also those with insight in the thorns.

If you don't take precautions against such hidden dangers as soon as possible, you will inevitably lose the opportunity in the future!

Shen Yichen didn't know that the envoy of the tile spur thought, if he knew, it is estimated that he would not mark the royal court of the Mongolian tribes on the map of the Ming Dynasty according to the restored materials of later historians, let alone show it to the envoy of the tile spur.

But these things are more real, and they don't have a big effect. Because this is only an approximate high-scale map, it is far from meeting the needs of actual combat, let alone solving the problems of navigation and roads.

Li Guang, a famous general of the Han Dynasty, got lost in the journey to conquer the Xiongnu and obtained the famous phrase Li Guang's difficult seal.

If you want to seal the wolf Juxu in the grassland, it is not this picture of Kanyu, but the national strength of the Ming Dynasty!

After the picture was displayed, the ceremonial officer presented it on the imperial case, but Zhu Qizhen did not return to the throne, but looked at Shen Yichen with deep meaning in his eyes.

"Shen Aiqing was rewarded for his work in controlling the water, and it has only been a few days since he made another contribution to writing a book, and I don't even know how to reward it."

Zhu Qizhen said a sincere word, Shen Yichen was only a weak crown, and he was already wearing a unicorn uniform, and he was respected as a bachelor in Hanlin.

And soon after, he will officially serve as a scripture banquet speaker and become the emperor's teacher!

Although Shen Yichen has not reached the point where many powerful ministers have no seal, at his age, Zhu Qizhen really doesn't know what other reward he can give.

Official?

The promotion of the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy is the position of the bachelor. There is no precedent title, but generally only the cabinet ministers and the head of the Hanlin Academy will be promoted to the bachelor rank.

It's impossible to let Shen Yichen be promoted to a cabinet minister, or a bachelor of Hanlin, right?

Since the actual position cannot be promoted, then you can only find a way from the virtual title, the special vest Zhan Shifu of the Hanlin Academy, there happens to be a five-grade Zuo Chunfang University Scholar, which can become Shen Yichen's additional title.

In the fifteenth year of the tenure of Ming Xiaozong in history, Yang Yanhe, the future chief assistant of the cabinet, relied on the cultivation of the "Ming Huidian" and was promoted from Zuo Chunfang Zhongyun to Zuo Chunfang University Scholar.

Unexpectedly, this scene would be staged decades in advance.

"The ministers are deeply favored by the emperor and dare not take credit for receiving rewards."

After Shen Yichen heard Emperor Zhu Qizhen's words, he immediately modestly postponed it.

This time it was not for show, he knew very well that he was already in the limelight, and it would be too late to continue to commend him.

"As a great tomorrow, how can I not be rewarded for my merits?"

If it was another small credit, Zhu Qizhen would probably go down the steps given by these words.

But writing a book and making a statement is an immortal achievement, and it is Shen Yichen who has cultivated the "Universal Chronicles" by himself, if this is not rewarded, the outside world will have greater doubts and criticisms.

"Wang Aiqing listens to orders."

Without waiting for Shen Yichen to continue to resign, Zhu Qizhen turned around and ordered the secretary to be Wang Zhi.

"The minister is here."

"Shen Yichen, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, is a scholar of Zuochunfang University in Zhan Shifu, and I am hereby commended!"

"Commandment."

The dust has settled on the promotion awards, which has attracted countless people to cast envious glances at Shen Yichen, especially the Hanlin officials and Kedao officials who are standing outside the hall.

Everyone is noble, and they used to be on the same starting line, but now Shen Yichen has increased the title of bachelor, and he and the others are still junior officials in green robes.

Even if Zuo Chunfang University Scholar is not comparable to Diange University Scholar, this honor still makes people yearn for it!

I thought that the reward would end here, but I heard Zhu Qizhen give an order to Hu Hu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

"Hu Aiqing listens to the order."

"The minister is here."

"Shen Aiqing will serve as a Japanese lecturer in the near future and give him a bullfighting suit."

Even if the promotion reward is a bit exaggerated, it is still expected by the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

But the point of giving bullfighting clothes is really a bit unexpected, even old ministers like Hu Hu were stunned for two seconds before receiving the order: "Minister, obey the holy decree!" ”

Nalan Xingde, a famous poet in the Qing Dynasty, once described in his "Lushui Pavilion Miscellaneous Knowledge": The Hanlin official of the Ming Dynasty borrowed more than three colors from the five grades, and the lecturer gave bullfighting clothes to the unusual.

Although the Ming Dynasty had a precedent of giving bullfighting clothes to the Ming Dynasty, the names of those people were Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi!

Shen Yichen can compare with the deceased "Sanyang", and even slightly better in age!
