Chapter 840: Shen Pei Seeks Officials
"What did they see in the Vault?"
"Your Majesty, Dr. Dong has flipped through the "Sutra Law", "Shangjun Book", "Shenzi", "Drama", "Law Theory", "Sixteen Classics", "Zaiyou", "Theft Law", "Thief Law", "Prison Law", "Arrest Law", and there are more than ten kinds of books that the villain does not know the title!"
"Seen so much?"
In Weiyang Palace, the eunuch's return made the new emperor slightly stunned.
"Dong Qing is in a hurry to go to the doctor!"
No royal family will completely trust a certain school, and no emperor will completely trust a certain person, and Dong Zhongshu, who was named by Emperor Jing, is no exception.
But when Dong Zhongshu's situation was reported, the new emperor only felt that Dong Zhongshu was a little anxious, and he was a little panicked.
The classics in the Library Vault are ancient, and the more you read, the less you will gain.
Even if he himself controlled the Secret Pavilion, he was just looking for some content as a reference, and he didn't look around like this.
"Got it, let's go down!"
The new emperor waved his hand and let out another long breath.
"Your Majesty, Duke Shen asks to see you!"
The eunuch who visited Dong Zhongshu went down, and another eunuch entered the palace and mentioned another main master.
"Xuan ...... Wait, I'll meet you personally! ”
The new emperor just wanted the eunuch Xuan Shenpei to enter the palace, but then quickly changed his mind, and stood up after arranging the imperial robe.
As soon as he walked out of the main hall of Weiyang Palace, he saw that Shen Peigong had already strode forward.
This kind of time is far faster than coming after the announcement is confirmed, and if the new emperor's guess is not wrong, when the eunuchs speak to deliver the message, Shen Peigong has already stepped forward.
"I've seen Your Majesty!"
There were still three meters apart, and Shen Peigong bowed slightly.
The etiquette of Shen Peigong is an ancient ceremony, which belongs to the etiquette of the sect masters of various universities before the unification of the Qin Dynasty.
At that time, the heads of these sects were greeted by kings in person, and they were also guests of honor on the thrones of the major monarchs, and their status was rarely different from that of kings, let alone waiting and informing, or speaking inferiorly.
The new emperor glanced at him, and he didn't delve into these things, but bowed back in the same way.
Shen Peigong is already more than eighty years old, but his body is old and energetic, and the new emperor can even feel the hot mana like fire in the other party's body.
He bowed down to greet him when he came out of Weiyang Palace, and this kind of etiquette obviously made Shen Peigong extremely satisfied.
The two entered the main hall of Weiyang Palace side by side.
"Your Majesty is studying?"
The new emperor likes to stay in the Weiyang Palace, but he doesn't sit here all the time waiting for so-and-so ministers, but moves him here to study, rest, etc.
On the case, there is the sword of the new emperor, and there are also rolls of bamboo slips.
Shen Peigong glanced at it, and the words on the bamboo slip suddenly came into his eyes.
"Your Majesty, these words are just for fun, and many literati write words that are prosperous but lack substance, and they are not suitable for Your Majesty to indulge in!"
In addition to some approved bamboo slips, these bamboo slips of the new emperor are more written by so-and-so.
Lacking sufficient depth and breadth, the writings of these literati were undoubtedly the writings of primary monks before the ancient inheritance of the Book of Songs.
It's okay to use these endowments for fun, but if you want to learn the real truth and understand the truth of governing the country, these endowments will be completely useless, and even waste time.
Shen Peigong frowned slightly.
His student Wang Zang was the young master of the crown prince, that is, the teacher of the new emperor.
As a result, the new emperor is now obsessed with this kind of small composition, which is obviously unqualified when Wang Zang and others teach.
As Wang Zang's teacher, Shen Peigong is even the ancestor of the new emperor to some extent, and he also has certain educational responsibilities for the new emperor, which makes him persuade him again and again.
The new emperor was respectful and nodded, but the gaze in his eyes flashed slightly.
If Zhang Xuezhou is here, he will definitely be able to find a similar comparison, many schools like to read extracurricular students are extremely common, some students are not lacking in the teacher confiscated extracurricular books, even called parents, and some people because of too much attention to extracurricular books resulting in repeated declines in grades.
A strict teacher is good for the students, but whether the students understand at the time is another matter.
At least the students who had their books confiscated had a hard time having the mentality of 'thanking the teacher' at that time.
It is difficult for most students to calm down the bad breath in their hearts, not to mention that the new emperor was criticized by Shen Peigong.
Han inherited the Qin system, as a high emperor, the new emperor did not like to restrict.
He invited Shen Peigong and others to enter the imperial court in order to get rid of the shackles on his body, and to find a group of obedient courtiers, and there was no need to add another layer of restraint.
In the end, the new emperor didn't hold back his temper in his heart, and turned to ask with a reluctant smile to change the topic.
"I don't know why Gong Shen came in such a hurry?" Xindi asked.
His question stopped Shen Peigong's teaching.
Teaching students is important, but Confucianism is obviously more important.
This made Shen Peigong quickly mention the intention.
Dong Zhongshu's matter is solved, and he can ask for a position in the imperial court with peace of mind.
was invited by the new emperor with high-level etiquette, and Shen Peigong also wanted to see what kind of position the new emperor could give him, which could also really touch the status of Confucianism in the heart of the new emperor.
Shen Peigong asked a few tentative questions, which made the new emperor think for a few seconds.
The fire can only burn more and more slowly if it burns slowly, and how can he give Shen Peigong any high-ranking official at the beginning.
None of these people involved in the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries are simple, and the official positions of these people need to be carefully considered.
For the emperor, as long as the courtiers do not make mistakes, the courtiers will remain in that position until these courtiers are too old to serve.
It is indeed not easy for Xindi to vacate a position for Shen Peigong.
The current situation belongs to the pit of the imperial court has not been dug out, and Shen Peigong wants to plant trees.
Shen Peigong was a little impatient, but the new emperor's behavior was also a little frizzy, and he invited Shen Peigong over too early.
"Dong Zhongshu resigned to me today, and the imperial court has vacant the position of Doctor Taixue!"
The new emperor spoke slowly, and when he saw Shen Peigong's slightly dignified and dissatisfied mood, he knew very well that Dong Zhongshu's position could not satisfy Shen Peigong at all.
"But Shen Peigong, you are the master of Confucianism, how can you be a Confucian," the new emperor said.
"What about me?" Shen Peigong's face turned for the better.
"What position does Shen Gong think is better?" asked Xindi.
"That's ...... of course"
The higher Shen Peigong, the better, almost blurted out.
If Xindi is willing, of course, he thinks that the position of prime minister is suitable for him.
But it is impossible for a country to produce two prime ministers, and if you want him to take the throne, then you have to be the prime minister Wei Wan to take the throne.
Shen Peigong felt that he was a little impatient, and after he had dealt with his own affairs, he would at least have to visit some court officials.
As long as there is communication in advance, so that some people are willing to 'concede' their positions, his official position is very easy to say.
But who to target needs Shen Peigong's careful consideration.
Confucianism can also use fighting methods to solve problems, and there is a need for visits when it comes to non-Confucian lineages.
He pondered for a moment, and for a moment it was difficult to grasp which soft nail to handle.
"Naturally, the more you can exert your aging ability, the better!"
The words in Shen Peigong's mouth also changed direction, and he did not have the delusion of asking the new emperor to directly give a position of three princes and nine secretaries.
This kind of position cannot be given by the new emperor, and they also need to stabilize the basic market before they can fight for it.
"There are many positions in the imperial court that are suitable for giving full play to Shen Gong's ability" The new emperor said casually: "But if someone goes up, someone needs to go down, if Shen Gong can do some assistance, these high positions can be vacated!" ”
"As long as Your Majesty points out, the old man is willing to cooperate" Shen Peigong said excitedly: "There are many Confucian talents, and they will not be inferior to the current important members of the imperial court!" ”
"Then I will welcome all the talented Confucian scholars to the court," the new emperor said with a smile: "As long as Confucianism has suitable candidates, even the positions of prime minister and imperial historian can be arranged!" ”
The new emperor named two positions, both of which were positions of real power in the imperial court, and they were also top positions.
The former holds the head of the official position in the world, and the latter has the right to supervise the officials in the world.
These two positions were so heavy that Shen Peigong couldn't say anything, and even made Shen Peigong's breathing a little short.
Obviously, Xindi revealed his dissatisfaction with the high-ranking officials in these two positions.
This involves Prime Minister Wei Juan and Imperial Doctor Zhidu.
If Confucianism wants to ascend to the throne, these two must be pulled down first.
