Chapter 45: The Dark Waves on the Eve of the Morning Meeting

"I welcome Your Majesty all the way back to Beijing, do you think Liu Long should listen to my advice?" Cui Yuan didn't explain much, "Tell him that it is better to rely on his seniority in the Hanlin Academy to recruit the envoy who compiled the records of the Daxing Emperor." Our Majesty, there is a bottomless whirlpool around us now. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I understand, then I'll go and talk to Xinrui. ”

Cui Yuan nodded, remembering what His Majesty had said to him in the elephant chariot when he was about to arrive in Liangxiang a few days ago.

His Majesty should have known about Liu Long's relationship with his in-laws by now, and should be able to understand his position from Liu Long's attitude.

As soon as the feast is opened, isn't the words of many ancestors the best place to quote scriptures and teach His Majesty?

And it is impossible for the emperor not to understand this, if he agrees to open it, then the sutra feast will be a battlefield for the emperor to continue to suppress scholars and future scholars!

This sutra feast has never been pure, and Yang Tinghe must insist on arguing with the emperor for many things. He's Shousuke, which dictates that he can only do this, or at least show persistence.

Otherwise, the ministers around him would turn to find someone new, who would come forward to help them fight the emperor.

There is no way, every new deal, every measure, behind the real interests.

The emperor had royal interests, and the courtiers had their own petty interests.

It's just that this time it's not the eunuch who is favored and tyrannical, but the emperor himself who coerces: that is the scene when Taizu Taizong, which Wenchen doesn't tremble?

Cui Yuan knew how many generations of emperors these ministers had gone through before the emperor became more and more respectful to his subordinates. At this point, Yang Tinghe also had to regard the feast as an important battlefield and try to tame this young and vigorous son of heaven.

And the Hanlin scholars finally looked up to the cabinet, how could the officials, attendants, and poetry readers not be persuaded and co-opted by the ministers to tell the emperor something he "should learn"?

Cui Yuan didn't want Liu Long to be planted here.

It's not for the power of the future or anything, it's purely because her son is mistaken for the rest of her daughter's life.

Zu Xun is above, what power does he expect from a horse captain?

……

The day before the emperor's first visit to the court, Cui Yuan and two ministers led one each of the Ministry of War and Engineering and other attachΓ©s to Anlu to welcome the princess's family.

Many lords and relatives envy Cui Yuan, and the emperor's trust in Cui Yuan is already obvious.

And on this day, before the yamen of Shenshi were put on duty, the eunuchs of the clerical office of the celebrant were dispatched on a large scale to go to the household department and the Taifu Temple to return the account books.

The emperor has finished checking the accounts?

It's only been less than four days, what can I find out?

The unknown is the most disturbing.

At dusk, Zhang Zuo came out of the cabinet and went to Yuan Zonggao first.

When the news came out, the capital was shaken: Yuan Zonggao, who was born in the top three and was born in the same jinshi, was promoted to the left waiter of the Ministry of Officials and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy at the age of 68, and he was only one step away from the cabinet. There is only a book of the Ministry of Officials on the left waiter, and the bachelor of Hanlin is naturally the foreshadowing of the bachelor.

Xie Changjie was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood, he hadn't waited for the appointment of Zuo Changshi, but Yuan Zonggao had risen at this speed first.

At the same time, two more waves of people left Beijing.

Then it was revealed from the side of the Zhongshu Sheren: two more letters were approved, and at the request of some ministers and ministers, His Majesty sent people to the homes of the two cabinet ministers who had already sent to him, and asked them to return to their posts.

One is Yang Yiqing, who is sixty-seven years old, and the other is Fei Hong, who is fifty-three years old.

They all left the court with the dignity of the courtiers.

This means that three people in one day will be in the cabinet at any time during the year.

Coupled with the previous decision to let Wang Shouren enter Beijing, what is Your Majesty going to do?

What did this make Yang Tinghe, Liang Chu, Jiang Mian, Mao Cheng and other officials in the DPRK and China think?

……

Before dawn on 27 April, the officials who were qualified to participate in the Chang Dynasty had already arrived one after another outside the noon gate.

Different from the Great Dynasty and the Shuowang Dynasty, the Chang Dynasty is a political discussion.

Today, as the first permanent dynasty of the new monarch, none of the court counselors who can come are absent.

According to the old rules, the court counselor has a tooth plate, and there is also a door registration at the gate control for easy inspection.

Xie Changjie is still only the long history of the palace, and he has not yet been assigned a new position. This is not a ceremonial court, so Xie Changjie is not qualified to come.

Yuan Zonggao was originally a Zhengsanpin, and he was now promoted to the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials and the Bachelor of Hanlin, and he became the focus of the Hou Dynasty personnel when he appeared outside the noon gate.

Within a few days, he had a sedan chair in the capital and an entourage.

Looking at the colleagues who came around to greet him, Yuan Zonggao just greeted them politely and happily.

The third drum on the noon gate had not yet sounded, and the ministers did not have to line up in order.

The lords and generals are all gathered on the side outside the right door, and now that the weather is no longer so cold, not many people stay in the straight room on such a special day as today.

And outside the Zuoye Gate, Wang Qiong, the secretary of the ministry, also arrived.

Although he is a great celestial official, there are not many civil officials who greet him much at the moment.

has always been close to Qian Ning and Jiang Bin is his Wang Qiong's death hole, now that Qian Ning and Jiang Bin have been imprisoned, and Yang Tinghe is a strong minister, how many days can Wang Qiong stay in the court?

Wang Qiong is a person who is scheming, superhuman, and good at making knots, which is his impression in the minds of officials in the DPRK and China. After Zhengde, he has almost always served in the sixth department of the capital.

In the process of transferring from the head of the household department to the secretary of the military department, the conflict between Wang Qiong and Yang Tinghe broke out because of a specific position, and then his feud with Yang Tinghe became an open fact in the court.

Yang Tinghe has been in the cabinet for fifteen years, and he has been the first assistant for nearly ten years, and now he has established a new monarch. And behind Wang Qiong's promotion, there is a shadow of collusion with the ministers and the fortunate ministers, what is his current situation?

Even though he had the great merit of promoting Wang Shouren to quell the rebellion, Wang Qiong's "poor" reputation and the strength of his opponent seemed to have determined Wang Qiong's ending.

In the straight room, the elderly Liang Chu stood up when he heard the discussion outside, and shouted at the door: "Dehua, what are you doing with a straight face?" Still on the night of Emperor Qi's big trip? ”

Wang Qiong walked over with a straight face and saluted, and said in a cold voice: "Although the first emperor's edict was to be judged by the queen mother and the ministers, but no one in the dignified Jiuqing was asked for his opinion, and the old man of the Liang Pavilion thought that I shouldn't be angry? ”

"Gas! I know you're not happy. Liang Chu smiled bitterly, "The incident happened suddenly, and the situation is urgent." ”

Wang Qiong didn't say much.

Suddenly? Is it urgent?

The emperor has been seriously ill for so long, who has not thought about these things?

Welcoming the new monarch today, Wang Qiong has no objection.

He was furious that the cabinet completely ignored the six Shangshu and the heads of the Inspectorate, the Dali Temple, and the General Political Envoy Department. Today, the authority of the Cabinet is growing, and it has long since departed from the original purpose of the Cabinet.

"The order to let Shouren enter the capital has been issued, and he said that all the credit goes to you." Liang Chu continued, "Dehua, Fei Hong is also going to Beijing, you have competed with him for the position of the left attendant of the ministry, how are you going to deal with yourself now?" ”

Wang Qiong's face changed.

It was still three years of Zhengde, and he became the left waiter of the Ministry of Officials at that time because he left Liu Jin's relationship. At that time, Fei Hong, who was a competitor, was not only not selected, but was also verbally humiliated by Liu Jin at the Dragon Boat Festival banquet.

"How does Wang deal with himself, I don't know what the elder of the pavilion has to say about this?"

Liang Chu shook his head helplessly: "Why is Wang Tianguan so out of shape? Even if you are angry, now is not the time to be so unpretentious to all the ministers. Among the six departments, you have done it in the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Officials. With three books, you are only one step away from entering the cabinet. I don't have any high opinions, I just feel sorry for the same disease, and I don't know how to deal with myself. ”

Wang Qiong looked at Liang Chu in disbelief: "The elder of the pavilion said that he laughed, the merit of supporting the establishment plus the merit of welcoming the establishment, how can the elder of the pavilion say that he doesn't know how to deal with himself?" ”

Liang Chu waved his hand and said gloomily, "Let's see." I'm different from you, I came from a bachelor's degree in Hanlin and went directly to the Ministry of Officials. You supervised Caoyun, and you were a political envoy to Henan, so you are a rare cadre. This time the wind and rain are fierce, I hope you and I can get through it safely. ”

Yang Yiqing and Fei Hong, two famous ministers who want to have qualifications and skills, have returned to the court, and Yang Tinghe should also feel the huge pressure, right?
