On the second day of the fifth month, the Nissei Gate is no longer smoking.

The emperor held a sutra feast for the first time, and in order to show his attention, today's Chang Dynasty decided that he would quit it before that.

After the fire at the Nissei Gate, the feast went on as usual, and the emperor had already sent a signal that he would not make a big deal about it.

The emperor's mind has indeed calmed the hearts of too many people.

Although this matter has nothing to do with them, but with the wind and waves, who will fall into the water because of this, who knows?

Not all the scholars of the Hanlin Academy have a share in the sutra feast, and those who have not yet dispersed and are not qualified enough, as well as those ordinary eight or nine grades, were not qualified to attend the sutra feast.

But for the first time, the emperor wanted to meet all the people in the Hanlin Academy, and they all participated in the banquet after the lecture.

The sutra feast is because there is both sutra and feast.

It is an honor to be able to eat the sutra feast.

For the sake of this honor, those who were able to participate in it fasted, burned incense, and cleansed and bathed.

The emperor attached so much importance to it that he was almost burned to death and held a sutra feast as usual, and after they went back yesterday, they washed again wildly: not only because they were dazed in the rain yesterday, but also because they had to be more careful about their appearance.

The sutra feast is extraordinary.

Attaching importance to the scriptures and feasts is to tell the people of the world that the emperor is willing to govern the country under the teachings of the saints and rely on the scholars of the world.

All the people of the Hanlin Academy were able to attend this banquet, which also expressed the emperor's importance to talents.

There is also a possibility that makes everyone's hearts beat faster: will the emperor promote someone else at this feast?

After the fire, will Your Majesty be more anxious to be loyal to your subordinates?

Hanlin bachelors are noble and noble, but only when they start to take up real positions, can they rise faster.

Many corners of the capital began to prepare for entering the palace.

In the Yang Mansion, Yang Shen was the cultivator of the Hanlin Academy, and he had already risen. Yang Ting and this university scholar are still the keynote speakers today.

Yang Shen, who was already a little stressed, was very worried: "Father, Your Majesty has dismissed the court to open the scripture feast, and let those Shuji scholars attend, and you don't need to know about the scripture and feast." After the fire of the Niseimen, it will be opened as usual, as if there is a plan to do something at the feast, right? ”

Yang Tinghe felt uneasy just like Zhu Houxi reprimanding Zhang Zuo: "Don't lie!" It's a good thing that Your Majesty attaches so much importance to the feast! Why do you always wonder what Your Majesty is going to do? Do you want the court to be in turmoil? ”

“…… The son is just worried about the father! ”

"How many winds and waves, I've come over!" Yang Tinghe sighed, "With cultivation, although you have a bit of talent, you are really too young in this matter." See more, think more, talk less! ”

“…… The son just asked his father for advice. ”

"On the day Your Majesty first looked at the court, didn't you just hold back your lies?" Yang Tinghe was still a little scared in retrospect, and his face was very stern, "In terms of heart, skill, and eloquence, can't you see that Your Majesty's ability is above you?" Do you think I have no other way in the palace, just because it is difficult to ride a tiger? Now that the situation is getting more and more treacherous, you have to be cautious in everything! Today you are just a bookkeeper, don't say a word! ”

The sutra feast is the sutra feast, and what can the emperor do on the occasion of telling the Confucian classics and affirming the meaning of the scriptures?

Yang Tinghe is not worried. First there were the previous days of listening to politics, listening to lectures, listening to persuasion, and then there was yesterday's calmness and reason, and the emperor attached importance to the sutra feast only because he understood the symbolic meaning of the sutra feast.

As for whether it was a feast of knowledge of the scriptures, the emperor restored the old system of using lords. It's just an honor, and it doesn't involve real gain, so why stop it?

Now that I think about it, the emperor was really the best time to be aggressive before he ascended the throne and during the first court meeting.

Only at this stage when the new monarch has just ascended the throne, the important ministers are just not good and oppose everything. In that case, the suspicion of taking power is too obvious.

Yang Tinghe looked at his son, although he nodded and listened to the training, he was still dissatisfied with his judgment, and he could only feel helpless: the young man is famous, the top student in high school, and he is arrogant.

Saying that he can't even compare to a fifteen-year-old child, he is not convinced.

I can't take care of so much, Yang Tinghe is a lecturer today, and he has to prepare early.

At dawn, the Hanlin scholars gathered outside the noon gate.

All of them are the best in the field: the top three in the first class, directly awarded the position of the Hanlin Academy; In the top two grades, you can enter the Hanlin Academy to be a scholar or a government official.

Non-Hanlin will not enter the cabinet.

Everyone standing here has a starting point that is far higher than that of the same department, and they all have a greater future.

At the forefront of them are the cabinet scholars, the six shoshu and the left and right imperial history, the kokuko priest and other important ministers.

The left door opened, and the Wenyuan Pavilion was ready.

This time, Guo Xun was in charge.

It was originally customary for the lord to serve as a celebrity. However, after the Tianshun period, it was generally concurrently served by the first assistant of the cabinet.

It is also customary for other cabinet ministers to have a feast with the same knowledge.

Specific experience organizes the preparations, so naturally they don't have to bother with arranging them personally.

It's all an experience, an honor.

Today's glory belongs to Guo Xun first and foremost. First, he was informed of the scriptures and feasts, and yesterday he was appointed to participate in the abolition of the presumptuous and the reorganization of the Beijing camp on behalf of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and Guo Xun became the first person among the ministers to be important by the new monarch.

Today's glory still belongs to Yang Tinghe and Shi Xuan, the two lecturers, and to Yang Shen and Zhang Bi, the two exhibition officials.

Needless to say, this is the first time that he has served as a lecturer at this feast, which has greater symbolic significance.

And Shi Xuan is currently in charge of the Hanlin Academy, and he was the main examist for last year's examination.

As for the two exhibition officers who were responsible for translating the "handouts" for the lecturers, they were both Jinshi in the sixth year of Zhengde. Yang Yingkui, who went to Liangxiang to deliver the instrument note that day, was in the same department as them, and now he is already cool with Mao Cheng.

Yang Shen and Zhang Bi are not too critical, they were elected by the Hanlin Academy.

One is the son of Shoufu, and the other is a native of Shishou in Jingzhou Prefecture and a fellow villager of Yuan Zonggao.

Everywhere is the sophistication of human feelings.

The classroom was ready, and the Han generals guarded inside and outside the Wenhua Palace.

After the feast, Guanglu Temple has also begun to prepare.

In the Qianqing Palace, after experiencing a fire in front of the house, the emperor continued to run in the morning when he saw that the rain had stopped today, and the harem that was frightened yesterday was also a lot more relieved.

After the morning run, Zhu Houxi, who was dressed again again, stepped out of the temple gate: "Let's go, listen to the talk." ”

Out of the Qianqing Gate, the guard officer on duty today, Hui Anbo and Zhang Wei, knelt down.

Guo Xun Zhuyu was in front, and Zhang Wei, who had the merit of welcoming and protecting, also participated in yesterday's banquet, and now he showed his sincere respect for the emperor, and then with a little thought related to the three major battalions after the reorganization.

"Let's go." After Zhu Houxi asked him to get up, he just smiled.

Zhang Wei was surrounded by guards who had seen Zhu Houxi running in the morning in the palace, and the emperor's persistence and perseverance infected them day after day.

Not to mention that when they were waiting just now, Zhang Zuo came over and asked them to wait, saying that the emperor hadn't finished running yet.

The night before the house was on fire, and today they can run with peace of mind, and His Majesty's calmness really impresses them.

If Zhu Houxi has no special circumstances in the palace, he will all walk.

But today is different, the feast is a special ceremonial occasion.

Sitting on the foot, the Son of Heaven, surrounded by guards and honor guards, began to move in the direction of the Wenhua Palace.

The door of the noon gate was also opened, and the ministers who were fortunate enough to attend the banquet also began to gather outside the Zuoshun gate first.

When the matter came to an end, Yang Tinghe couldn't help but get nervous again: Is there really no accident today?

Although the son is not half a star in terms of human sophistication, his brain is really smart.
