"In the carriage, but Gu Shilang?!"

Before the carriage had finished making a U-turn, someone was already shouting.

The carriages and horses of Shaofu and Zhang Chi's face are all familiar.

And what made Gu Zuo even more familiar was this voice,

Through the gap in the curtain, he quietly looked out, and his mood became complicated for a while.

Wasn't that the three people Xing Guan, Jiang Yong and Song Wen who had met on the boat before?

Song Wen's impression is not very profound, but he remembers that this person is upright, thin, and has a bit of a talented demeanor. But the six-fingered Xing Guan and the big bucktooth Jiang Yong, he still remembers it relatively clearly,

After all, they all look weird.

And don't judge people by their appearance, among the three people, Gu Zuo still thinks that Xing and Jiang are more talented.

Originally, he had the same mind as the emperor, which was to wait until the end of the imperial examination in October.

If they can be lucky enough to go to high school, then the subsequent contact and arrangement will naturally go smoothly. If you are just a lifter, you will always be limited in the future.

What is the purpose of entering Beijing in the spring?

Naturally, I read with peace of mind and prepare for the exam, so I went to find someone in advance, what are I doing?

What do they have to do? Delay people's reading. What don't you do? There's no need to look for it.

It's a pity that it backfired, but today I don't know how to meet here.

Looking behind the three of them, sure enough, there was a crowd gathering.

Eunuchs rebel ...... These are not things that can be said casually.

"Deputy Director Zhang."

"The lower official is here."

"Go and call the three...... Also, don't be here anymore, and take them to the clouds. I'll see them there. ”

"Yes."

After Zhang Chi went down, Song Heng was still curious, "But what's so special about those three people?" ”

Gu Zuo replied: "Your Majesty is actually very talented, but the territory of the Ming Dynasty is too wide and there are too many government affairs, and His Majesty has no time to do many things, and he can't do it." Therefore, in fact, there is a preference for the appointment of courtiers in this area. Everyone said that Shaofu was brought out by Gu Zuo today, but in fact, it was not, but many people wanted to follow my path again, so it kept emerging. ”

"And these three people, who were born into a family of merchants, have a very different understanding of trade and currency, and of course the future depends on their own creation. This official can't bear to be involved in the court battle with the actual officials. ”

From Emperor Zhengde to the present, the most obvious change in the court is the rise of pragmatic officials. At the beginning, Wang Wei lectured in the academy and preached the theory of 'applying it to the world'.

Some of the officials who came out here were actually more favored by the emperor than the Hanlin Academy.

One of the typical is Wang Xian, who entered the attendant's room, and now cooperates with Song Heng to move to the ordinary people of Jingshi Nancheng and mobilize them to build their own houses, he was ordered to set up a bank.

Of course, there is also Zhang Li, who has taken such a high position as a procurator in Fujian.

If they really did anything, it didn't. But it seems that once the situation or task is urgent, the emperor will favor these officials to the top.

And among the Shaofu, there was no shortage of officials who listened to the lectures at that time.

Like Song Heng and Zhang Chi, they are all like this.

As for the Hanlin Academy, there are obviously few people who have come out.

But the emperor also has a reason, because the Hanlin Academy itself is going to boil, so boil it, boil it slowly, and have the ability to boil him to death as an emperor.

Anyway, the person who is now serving as a Japanese lecturer is still a Japanese lecturer.

Normally, this is a very hot position, because the Japanese lecturer directly lectures the emperor and gets close to the emperor, so there will naturally be more opportunities.

But right now, there are so many moves in the government affairs of the Ming Dynasty, and I haven't seen who the emperor sent to do anything big.

Compared with all kinds of big reforms that can be seen and touched, this kind of change in the ministry under the instruction of the emperor is actually both implicit and important.

Of course, this is Zhu Houzhao's intention, and he will do the same in the future, that is, he will spend a long time telling the officials that the promotion of practical officers is faster.

Let's take it slowly.

Of course, if there is a really good person in the Hanlin Academy, or if he encounters some historical celebrities, then he will let him out to exercise.

For example, during the Great Dynasty Meeting, the Ministry of Officials adjusted the position of Mao Ji, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy and an official of the Jingyan Academy, and now he is a contemporary political envoy in Zhejiang.

Mao Ji was born in the seventh year of Tianshun and is 43 years old this year. In history, he really became a big official ten years after Zhengde, and he became a waiter and a scholar, and he became the first assistant during the Jiajing period, and lived for more than 80 years.

Before that, he was a Qingliu official, mainly as a lecturer, participating in such affairs as a lecturer, participating in the revision of records and other such affairs, so he also has the evaluation of 'profound knowledge and beautiful writing'.

This kind of Zhu Houzhao remembered the name, so he could naturally give him a chance to practice.

Rest of the blessings.

There is a consensus on the changes in officialdom, that is, the emperor sends you to serve in the local area, which means that you are going to start to have luck.

Speaking of which, Zhu Houzhao has worked hard for several years to make civil officials realize this. Now it's finally happening.

The effect is that the magistrates have changed the laziness of the past. Because the people who really sit in the positions of governors, political envoys, and envoys clearly know that the emperor's eyes are on them.

If you are concerned about fame and fortune and want to be promoted, then please work hard, make political achievements, and be transferred to a squire, why is it difficult to meet the emperor several times a year?

If you are a 'marquis of dung' and a self-proclaimed official for the people, then please do your job well, because this position is enough for you to fulfill your ideal ambitions.

After this effect is formed, it will be simple for Zhu Houzhao. He just needs to intensify the effect. Let the officials be convinced again and again, oh, I am right, the emperor promoted officials according to this number. That's it.

That's why Gu Zuocai said that he didn't want these three young people who could become pragmatic officials to get involved in boring political struggles too early and too deeply.

Just like Hangeul did to him.

He will do the same to others.

In the room between the clouds of water,

Gu Zuo was more silent than before.

Han Wen reported the matter of the salt class to the emperor on his behalf.

At the moment, Han Wen will not have any problems, because he is the chief judge who is trusted by the emperor, but this seed has already been planted. When the time comes to settle accounts in the future, will Hangeul, which offended so many people, not be affected at all?

It's almost impossible.

But Gu Zuo didn't go to Hanwen, but went back to do his own thing.

This incident has made him mature a lot, and mature people should know what they are going to do.

"Shao Situ, the person has arrived."

Listening to Zhang Chi's voice, Gu Zuo turned his head and said, "Bring them in." Besides, you and Song Si are busy, I don't need anyone here. I can just show me what will be published in Ming Pao tomorrow. ”

】

"Yes."

Gu Zuo was arrested that day,

The three already knew that the name 'Zhan You' was fake, and they knew his identity.

When we meet again, how do you deal with yourself?

In comparison, Gu Zuo, who is older, is still more experienced, directly invited them to take a seat, and apologized: "My identity is sensitive, I can't show people by my real name, and I ask the three little friends not to blame." ”

Xing Guan, Jiang Yong, and Song Wen didn't dare to make a mistake, "Where is Shao Situ." ”

"There is no Shao Situ today, it is Gu Zuo who wants to thank the three of them, come, sit down."

Although the three of them are lifters, they are not Jinshi after all, and they have no official status. The affairs of the palace, the emperor's plans, and the arrangements of the Shaofu are actually not suitable to say, otherwise he would not want to wait until after the imperial examination is released.

At the moment, it can only be said that the situation he just encountered, but Gu Zuo is really not interested in knowing what happened there.

In the end, it was Xing Guan who spoke first, and even knelt down to him, saying: "Since Brother Zhan was a young Situ that day, he had to say it in the next place. Shao Situ is deeply trusted by His Majesty, upright, and worried about the country and the people. Now that the court is worried about eunuch chaos, I don't know if Shao Situ is willing to give the emperor and set things right? ! ”

"Ugh." Gu Zuo couldn't help it, "What's the situation there, why do you suddenly say that the eunuchs are messing with the government?" ”

Jiang Yong added: "It is also a private gathering of scholars, and there is a lot of talk, although it may have violated the law, but now everyone hears about it, and it is indeed complaining......

"Shao Situ!"

Gu Zuo stretched out his hand, "I said that today is a gathering of friends, there is no Shao Situ here, you still think it is best for me to be Zhan You." Again, if you are my friend, listen to what I have to say. Brother Xing, you also get up first. ”

Xing Guan and the other three looked at each other and sat down separately.

In the heat coming from the four teacups, Gu Zuo said, "None of you have seen Your Majesty, I have seen it." ”

"Yes."

"I dare to vouch for this head," Gu Zuo pointed to his head and said word by word: "Even if Wang Zhen and Wang Zhi are reborn, they can't mess up Your Majesty's politics!" ”

This was said categorically, and the three of them were a little stunned at once, because the facts of the Criminal Department were in front of them.

"The water in the court is very deep, don't say you guys, it's me, sometimes I can't figure out the vein. Logically speaking, anyone who knows a little bit about His Majesty should understand that no one can mess with the government. I don't know where these words came from, who said them, or what their purpose was. ”

"But what I know for sure is that there is nothing good for you to get involved in something like this. When I saw it on the boat, I knew that all three of you had some real talents. But this is the Jingshi, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon everywhere, and it is not possible to get unimpeded if you have talent. ”

At the beginning, the emperor also cut down a person who Gu Zuo pleaded for mercy and wanted to protect it. Daming Zhongxing has never relied on a person's personal talent. For Zhu Houzhao, he didn't rely on Butcher Zhang to eat hairless pigs.

Therefore, if these three people commit a taboo, they should be degraded or degraded.

Gu Zuo couldn't bear to say so much about such a thing.

Looking at the expressions of the three of them, they all looked struggling, and Gu Zuo had to add, "This is my heartfelt words." ”

Jiang Yong asked, "...... Shao Situ knows, how will His Majesty let the celebrant supervise the trial? ”

Gu Zuo's eyebrows fell a little, "I can't answer your question, because I don't care much about it, and I haven't asked Your Majesty." Three little friends, let me say this, if you spend your time thinking about things like opening the sea, trade, and currency, I can ensure that you are dressed in official uniforms, and this is what I said, and as long as I am still an official in the court, it will always be effective. But if you believe in the nonsense of other people and participate in it, then you may be in prison. Take another 10,000 steps back and say, the test is just around the corner, don't go to review your homework, what are you doing with these things? ”

Xing Guan and Jiang Yong blushed a little, "...... We've also heard people say that things seem to be serious. ”

After all, the examples of Wang Zhen and Wang Zhi are not far away. The memory of the civil officials for the eunuchs' abuse of power is deep and painful, and they are quite sensitive.

Gu Zuo also felt a little unusual,

Perhaps, he should enter the palace to report to the emperor.
