Chapter 284: The Emperor's Heart is Unfathomable

Zhang Anshi said, this Zhu Gaochi immediately became vigilant.

He looked at Zhang Anshi and said, "You mean, Your Majesty's move is for something else?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Although Your Majesty is anxious, he can always be calm when he encounters major events, and this time the White Lotus Sect has dealt him quite a blow." ”

After a pause, Zhang Anshi said again: "If it weren't for the timely response, I am afraid that at this time, I dare not say that the world is in chaos, but I am afraid that because of this disaster of the White Lotus Sect, I don't know how many people will die tragically, and even the palace will be affected." ”

Zhu Gaochi nodded and sighed, "Hey...... Hongu didn't expect that there would be such a thief in the world. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "After this, His Majesty ordered his brother-in-law to open the mansion, but I couldn't understand it, isn't this a clear statement that he wants to tear apart the court." ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "That's why this palace said that this palace should be cautious, and it should still be based on my father's head." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "If the horse is the first to look forward, why do you want to open the mansion?" ”

Zhu Gaochi: "......"

Zhang Anshi said: "Brother-in-law, is there a possibility, that is...... Backdoor listing. ”

Zhu Gaochi frowned puzzled: "What is a shell, what is a listing?" ”

Zhang Anshi reacted, and he inadvertently said that it was not a word that should exist in this era, so he explained: "I mean, Your Majesty wants your brother-in-law to do something that you shouldn't do, and Your Majesty specially ordered me to assist my brother-in-law, so this intention is obvious." ”

Zhu Gaochi stared at Zhang Anshi: "What do you mean ......?"

Zhang Anshi said: "Brother-in-law, instead of thinking about what Your Majesty is thinking, it is better to think, what is Your Majesty worried about?" ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "What is my father worried about? ”

Zhang Anshi said patiently: "What he is worried about is that the emperor will be deceived, and the people under him will rise together and brutalize the people, so as to cause a catastrophe in the world like the end of the Yuan Dynasty." By then...... Once the hearts of the people are turned back, even if I have elite soldiers and horses, what will happen? ”

Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but sigh and said, "This is what the palace is worried about. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Then it's better to open the East Palace and support the Taiping Mansion." ”

Zhu Gaochi was surprised: "Support Taiping Mansion? ”

Zhang Anshi nodded and said: "Based on the Taiping Mansion, no, when it is a model mansion, it is like the original model battalion, and the new policy is drastically implemented to solve all kinds of shortcomings in the past." ”

Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhang Anshi, and he smiled bitterly: "What this palace is worried about is that after the opening of the palace, the ministers will welcome the palace and use this opening to advocate something beneficial to them." But I never expected that the first person to speak would be you, this kid. ”

Zhang Anshi smiled dryly: "Brother-in-law, I am different from them, they are all selfish, but I only have ...... in my heart"

Zhu Gaochi took a deep breath and said: "The matter of the Taiping Mansion, my father also supports it, if you want to open a new one, it doesn't matter, but have you ever thought that if you want to open a new one, you need someone to ...... Do you have any? ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Yes, it is ready. ”

Zhu Gaochi: "......"

Zhu Gaochi then said: "I didn't expect you to have someone, but ...... Here is the main palace...... But there is a lack of a character with a long history. ”

Zhang Anshi immediately understood what Zhu Gaochi meant.

It's easy to get the prince to support him.

But it was difficult for Donggong to support him.

Because the subordinate officials of the East Palace are the ministers of the imperial court, this minister has no interest in the affairs of the Taiping Mansion.

Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "Who does my brother-in-law plan to appoint?" ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "Originally, this should be the father's decision, but now the father has the intention of letting the palace open, so ...... If you ask your father about this, your father naturally doesn't like it, so he has to make up his own mind and think about it...... Let's let the officials of the Zhan Mansion tomorrow carry out public promotion. ”

Zhang Anshi immediately said: "Then I can't miss it." ”

Zhang Anshi replied very seriously.

Zhu Gaochi smiled and said: "You are a member of the East Palace, and it should be said that you have both the qualifications to be elected and the qualifications to be recommended, of course you have to go." ”

In fact, Zhu Gaochi's heart was still heavy, he felt that his father did seem to have something hidden in his heart, and he seemed to be making some kind of layout. But now he can't guess, so he simply doesn't guess.

As for Zhang Anshi's Taiping Mansion, Zhu Gaochi also faintly felt that Zhang Anshi might be right, if it wasn't exposed, he didn't expect the world to be in such a bad situation.

My brother-in-law still has the ability, maybe ...... It's up to the brother-in-law to open the situation.

And now the problem lies in the personnel problem of the Zhan Mansion.

Which ones are talented, and which ones can be reused, are all crucial.

The current Zhan Mansion is no longer the place where the former ministers were suspended, since the government is to be opened, it involves a lot of government affairs, and he can be regarded as a small Wenyuan Pavilion, so ...... This position of the scholar of the Jamesburg University becomes very important.

But Zhu Gaochi can't ask his father what he means, because it's already testing you, and you even ask about this kind of thing, so ...... Inevitably, my father will say that you can't take on the big responsibility.

It's just that Zhu Gaochi can't identify himself, not to mention that Zhu Gaochi himself has no clue, even if he has a clue, direct identification will inevitably cause a lot of dissatisfaction within the Zhan Mansion, and then make many people disappointed in Zhu Gaochi.

Then the only way is to follow the example of the imperial court and conduct a public recommendation to take a look.

The next day, Zhu Gaochi went to greet Zhu Di first, Zhu Di put his hands behind his back, looked at Zhu Gaochi with a smile, and said, "I heard that you want to choose a bachelor today?" ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "Yes." ”

Zhu Di said: "Has anyone chosen someone?" ”

"The retainers followed the practice of the court."

Zhu Di seemed to have known for a long time, and he was not a little surprised, and smiled: "I hope you can choose a talented person." ”

"Erchen ......"

Before Zhu Gaochi could continue, Zhu Di waved his hand and said, "I'll go to see your queen mother later, and your sister-in-law, your sister-in-law...... Your heartbeat has returned, and you don't have to do everything. ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "Yes." ”

Not long after, Zhu Gaochi retired.

Zhu Di also began to change into his regular clothes, and Yizha was busy on the side.

Zhu Di suddenly said: "Bachelor Zhan Shifu, who will it be?" ”

Yi was stunned for a moment, and then cautiously approached, bowed and said: "Among the Zhan Mansions, the most senior one should be Qin Zhengxue." ”

After hearing this, Zhu Di frowned and said, "Why this person?" ”

Yisha said: "This person won the fifth place in the second class in the Jiashenke Palace Examination, and his knowledge is excellent, he first entered Hanlin, and then entered the Zhan Mansion. ”

Zhu Di bowed his head: "But if you can be ranked first, it is great to be in the first class, if you are among the best in the second class, you will also be valued, this person can be fifth in the second class, and it is indeed a big advantage." ”

The Ming Dynasty carried out a total of several imperial examinations, and the Jinshi of these imperial examinations, because Emperor Taizu Gao killed a group when he was there, and killed another group when he was in Jingnan.

As a result, there are only a few hundred Jinshi who are really left.

And if it is the best among these hundreds of people, such as the Jinshi who is among the best in the first or second class, it is almost equivalent to the chosen son, how can I say it...... Anyway, as long as the emotional intelligence is a little higher and you can be a person, then basically, you can sit back and relax for a lifetime, even if you don't enter the cabinet, there will definitely be a book in each department.

What's more, this group of people is still very young, and the future is limitless! But there are a lot of budding people.

Zhu Di said: "What is this person's ability? ”

"This ......" Yisha was stunned, but said: "This slave doesn't know." ”

Zhu Di nodded: "It's okay, let's see what the prince does." ”

……

Zhu Gaochi returned to Zhan Shifu.

The officials of the Zhan Mansion have arrived, and many people are very excited, because the opening of the Prince's Mansion is a huge benefit to them, the Prince's left officials.

On the one hand, it shows that the prince's position is more stable, and on the other hand, they, the sages in the Zhan Mansion, finally have something to do.

The real governor of Zhan Shifu is Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi, and after that, there are Shao Zhan Shi and the like.

But in fact, most of these people are meritorious ministers, or veteran ministers.

For example, Qiu Fu, the Duke of Qi Kingdom, hung up a Shaozhan affair, and he was also a prince Shaobao.

But in fact, they do not manage any affairs, and only on festivals, they come to the prince in this official capacity.

The ones who are really responsible for the actual affairs of the prince are the left and right spring fangs, as well as the princes who wash horses and give up people.

Seventy or eighty left officials have been waiting here for a long time.

There was only one person, standing out from the crowd, and everyone felt particularly dazzling when they saw this guy wearing a python robe.

They are different from Zhang Anshi, they are mostly young and handsome, that is, ...... The future emperor's team has an unlimited future, and because of this.

Therefore, they especially cherish their reputation, as for the leader of the Jinyi Guard like Zhang Anshi, who is also a relative of the emperor, they try their best not to deal with each other.

After the prince arrived, the officials saluted.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Gaochi ascended to the throne.

Zhu Gaochi smiled and said a few words of greeting, he seemed very peaceful, and all the officials nodded one after another, indicating that the prince was virtuous.

Zhu Gaochi then said: "My father ordered the palace to open the palace, and ordered the palace to select a good talent as a bachelor of the Zhan Mansion for the reference of the palace. ”

His voice fell.

These housekeepers and horse washers one by one, you look at me, I look at you.

In fact, this matter has long been leaked.

Everyone has a number in their hearts, and there are actually candidates, which is just a formality.

Someone took the lead and said: "I think I ...... She is the most virtuous Qin Zhengxue. ”

Someone opened this mouth, and others also said: "Yes, Qin She is the most virtuous." ”

Zhu Gaochi's gaze soon fell on the bachelors in the left and right Chunfang.

This so-called left and right Chunfang is actually equivalent to two Shangshu, they can't directly become the prince's secretary, that is, the new bachelor.

However, these two are old ministers, old and senior, and belong to the nature of pension.

This Zuo Chunfang bachelor Liu beeped and said: "Qin She people are rich and have five cars, and they are loyal and upright, and the ministers also think that they can." ”

Bachelor Right Chunfang also nodded.

At this time, Zhu Gaochi's gaze fell on one person, it was Qin Zhengxue!

This student of Qin Zheng has to be dignified, very modest and very restrained.

If it is a public recommendation, by this time, it will almost be over.

Zhu Gaochi's impression of Qin Zhengxue is not bad, this person writes well and is well-read, and now it seems that it is indeed suitable.

"Your Highness, the minister also has a candidate."

At that moment, a voice rang out, and everyone looked at the man.

Who is not Zhang Anshi?

As soon as Zhang Anshi heard Qin Zhengxue, he was stunned.

This Qin Zhengxue...... Who it is now, he doesn't know, but this guy ...... It's not a good bird in the Hereafter.

Because he was the biggest corrupt official in the early years of the Ming Dynasty. It is said that because he was greedy for ink too much, and when he was an official, his appearance was too ugly, so that he was impeached, Zhu Di was furious, and when he cut off his head, the whole capital applauded.

He never expected that it was this Qin Zhengxue who came out.

can think about it carefully, the current Qin Zhengxue must not be ugly, after all...... Hasn't he been tested yet?

Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhang Anshi in surprise.

That Qin Zhengxue had already planned to accept the appointment, but the result was ...... His face was slightly ugly.

However, he still looked like a gentleman, and soon smiled.

You must know that for so many years in Hanlin and Zhan Shifu, what I practiced every day was self-cultivation kung fu!

Zhu Gaochi was a little helpless, but he still looked at Zhang Anshi and said, "Who do you want to recommend?" ”

"Zhan Shifu washes horses and Yang Pu."

Zhang Anshi has long noticed this Yang Pu, Yang Pu's position is now relatively low, and he is also from a Jinshi, so he was able to enter the Zhan Mansion, but because his ranking is relatively low, he is in the top three, so he ...... In terms of qualifications, it is far behind.

Yang Pu is a figure who is as famous as Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong in later generations, known as Sanyang, all of whom are cabinet ministers, experienced in handling affairs, down-to-earth and hardworking, and absolutely loyal to Zhu Gaochi.

As soon as Zhang Anshi's words came out, many people subconsciously looked at the prince Yang Pu.

Yang Pu: "......"

Originally, Yang Pu was only responsible for making green leaves, and he felt that this matter had nothing to do with him, but who would have thought that he was recommended by Zhang Anshi.

The problem is that the official position of the Zhan Mansion is Qingliu, which means ...... This is an official position that attaches great importance to reputation, and it is not a good thing to be recommended by Zhang Anshi.

It's like...... In the Song Dynasty, Qin Hui pointed to a person and said, this person can handle it, I think he can do the same.

Yang Pu didn't expect that he would become the focus of attention.

He immediately lowered his head, and suddenly felt like a child who had made a mistake.

Zhu Gaochi glanced at Yang Pu, took a deep breath, and then said, "Hmm...... Zhuqing, how is this Yang Pu? ”

The crowd was dumbfounded.

Zhu Gaochi looked at the left and right Chunfang scholars.

The Zuo Chunfang bachelor Liu Beep glanced at Yang Pu meaningfully, then stroked his beard, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, Yang Xima...... It's not bad, it's the best choice, but it's ...... The minister thought it was ...... Qin She people are the best. ”

You Chunfang said: "Yes, yes, the minister also seconded it." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "But the duty of this scholar of the Zhan Mansion is to assist the prince in handling government affairs, and the advantage of Qin Xuezheng is that he is talented and rich, but Yang Pu is different......

"Wei Guogong, this is not true." At this moment, everyone was anxious, and there was a humanitarian: "Only by learning to be rich and five cars can you govern the government, if you can't even read well, how to govern the country and level the world." ”

Zhang Anshi said very politely: "You know a bird......

All of a sudden...... Everyone's faces became embarrassed.

Zhu Gaochi immediately said: "Okay, okay......"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Duke of Wei Guo insulted the minister."

Zhang Anshi said: "I didn't mean to insult, this is just a mantra." ”

"The Minister...... How can you ......?"

All of a sudden, there was a lot of noise here.

Zhu Gaochi never expected that the final result would be like this, so he hurriedly ended the public promotion.

But at this time, some people did not follow, and some people bowed down and cried: "Your Highness, Your Highness...... In the East Palace, what kind of system is this, Wei Guogong insulted the minister, taught people to be chilling, please let His Highness call the shots. ”

Everyone said in unison: "Please call the shots, Your Highness." ”

Zhu Gaochi's face turned red and he was a little angry, so he said: "What I discussed today should have been a candidate for a bachelor's degree, but Zhu Qing was entangled in it, what does this mean, the selection of a bachelor's degree is a big matter, but it is entangled in this minutiae, you ...... You ......"

Zhu Gaochi's anger is understandable, what kind of virtue Zhang Anshi is, don't you know it?

He's such a thing, you just grasp this point to attack, isn't this finding fault?

What's more, now it is like a vegetable market, which makes his heart angry, so he scolded: "To dismiss official affairs for this reason, this is because of private abolition of the public, how can this be reasonable, today's discussion, give up first, if you are like this again, who will the palace rely on in the future?" Hmph, I don't know what to call it, it's just nonsense, it's all bastards. ”

After a tantrum throw, he brushed his sleeves and left.

At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded, and everyone suspected that the prince was definitely deliberate, and ...... It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also cursed.

As soon as Zhang Anshi saw his brother-in-law gone, he immediately said, "Hmph, I don't know what to say." ”

also ran away, he was still a little worried, there are not many of his own people here, if he was grabbed by these people and beaten by the group, he would be wronged.

These clear streams in the Ming Dynasty could really do such a thing.

When everyone saw that the prince and Zhang Anshi were gone, they didn't give up, and many people leaned towards Qin Zhengxue and comforted him: "Qin Sheren...... Is this offending the villain? Rest assured, we will fight with reason. ”

Another humane: "If today's events are spread, I am afraid that the whole world will be turbulent, I don't believe it, there is no royal law in this world, and Your Highness will risk the disapproval of the world......"

Qin Zhengxue's face did not show a trace of anger, and even smiled and said: "Fame and fortune, I am like a floating cloud, I can't enter the bachelor's degree, then don't enter, you don't have to be like this, hey...... It's a big deal...... resign"

Everyone was anxious: "Qin Sheren...... Don't be like this, he bowed his head today, he Zhang Anshi's hand is going to reach out to the East Palace, when will this East Palace be the final say? ”

The crowd was gossiping.

Only Yang Pu stood in place, looking confused, and he suddenly found ...... Your own popularity...... It's getting a little bad.

…………

"Brother-in-law, you scolded well, these bastards." Zhang Anshi caught up with Zhu Gaochi and said happily: "I have long seen that they are not pleasing to the eye, and there is also that Qin Zhengxue...... Brother-in-law...... This man is a traitor......"

Zhu Gaochi sighed: "You don't have to say a few words." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Anyway, no matter what, it must not be Qin Zhengxue, otherwise I will fight with them." ”

Zhu Gaochi's face was ugly, because this incident caused him to fall into an extremely passive position.

…………

Forbidden city.

Zhu Di lowered his head and reviewed the proposed votes of Wenyuan Pavilion, he was like a picky eater, but he would take a closer look at everything about military affairs and personnel.

If it is something else, a lawsuit, or something like that, throw it aside, or draw a circle impatiently, which is considered to be agreed.

"Your Majesty...... The East Palace is in trouble, no, the capital is in an uproar. ”

"How?"

"It's a matter of public recommendation, the ministers all pushed Qin Zhengxue, but Zhang Anshi pushed Yang Pu."

"Who is Yang Pu?"

"Naidong Palace washes horses, Jianwen in the second year...... Sanjia Jinshi ......"

Zhu Di shook his head: "I didn't ask you this, it's just that who is the last choice?" ”

"This Zhang An Shi argued with the hundred officials of the East Palace, he was anxious, scolded people, and everyone refused to stop with him, and later His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also furious, and scolded the hundred officials of the East Palace, and walked away."

Zhu Di's eyes were gloomy: "They are still too tender after all, and they can't even control such a situation?" Ay...... The prince still cherishes feathers too much. ”

Zhu Di's face was slightly disappointed.

Yishu said: "Your Majesty...... Otherwise, the palace will directly force the order to ......"

Zhu Di shook his head: "This is the matter of their East Palace, what does it have to do with me, not to mention, how can the prince and Zhang Anshi scold people, the male husband, who enters his mother, spits filthy words every day, what kind of system is this, give an order, and apply for it." ”

"Ah...... This ......"

……

The next day, a letter was sent to the East Palace.

The crown prince and Zhang Anshi were carried to receive the order.

The eunuch said: "Your Majesty admonished, saying: I order you to supervise the country, and all affairs will be lenient, and you will be strict against impatience. If the minister has a minor fault, don't be humiliated; Nor should you listen to likes and dislikes, and nurture virtue and hope, at this time. The importance of the world's machine affairs, it is advisable to inspect and act, the slightest negligence, the harm is endless. ”

Zhang Anshi listened to it in a fog, and he didn't understand it a little.

But the crown prince Zhu Gaochi's face was very ugly.

But I heard the eunuch say: "Be tolerant of the ministers, don't let your likes and dislikes." How can you scold people, Er is the prince, Zhang Anshi is the emperor's family, and he enters your mother at every turn, what kind of system will he become. Gu Nianer and the two committed the first offense, and they will not be punished for the time being, and if there is a next time, they will not be spared. ”

Zhu Gaochi kowtowed and obediently accepted the order.

The eunuch said: "Your Majesty hopes that the crown prince and the Duke of Wei Guo can keep their mouths dirty, and your Majesty expects this, but in fact, there is no intention to blame." ”

Zhang Anshi: "......"

Zhu Gaochi said: "Please reply to your father, the son must think about it, and dare not make any more mistakes." ”

Sending the eunuch away, Zhang Anshi said: "Brother-in-law, Your Majesty is crazy, how can he scold himself." ”

"He's not happy with us. But I can't scold and scold, and the crowd is raging, if you give in this time, you will ...... in the future I'm afraid that my father will blame the palace for being indecisive again. ”

Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, my side is ready, I will not only use Qin Zhengxue, but also teach the whole world to obey you." ”

Zhu Gaochi was stunned: "Why didn't you say it earlier." ”

"I also thought of it last night." Zhang Anshi said: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, this matter will be solved, and it will be effortless, Your Majesty learned that your brother-in-law handled it so well." Be sure to praise it too. ”
