The court meeting.
In front of the ministers, the emperor announced the promotion of Wang Hao to a Hanlin scholar, and issued a special decree to approve the brothers Yang Tinghe and Yang Tingyi to return to Xindu, Sichuan to visit their parents.
Wang Hao and Yang Tinghe were both parties in the court, and they heard with their own ears the words of the emperor's high hopes.
Yang Tinghe even came out to receive the order in person.
"I have previously asked the Ministry of Cabinet, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Rites, etc., and others have spoken highly of you. I have decided to promote you to a Hanlin bachelor's degree after you return to the court, but before that, You must repair the Ming Dynasty Huidian. Mr. Liu Ge recommended it to me before, saying that you made a lot of contributions in the repair of the Ming Dynasty."
The main reason why Yang Tinghe began to rise in the middle and late period of Hongzhi was because of him Many of the achievements in compiling the Ming Dynasty Conference were completed by Yang Tinghe personally. There will always be some deviations when compiled by others.
In addition to textual research, it is more about the understanding of the Ming Dynasty Code.
His abilities were gradually recognized by the government and the public, and because of his magnanimity, although he was in power in the early years of Jiajing, he did not cause major chaos in the Ming Dynasty due to changes in the succession branch. The imperial court smoothly passed through the transitional period of the early Jiajing period, and his achievements in history deserve recognition.
The meeting ended.
Many people went over to congratulate Wang Hao. Wang Hao was selling two liters a year, and his popularity was almost as high as that of Cheng Minzheng in his heyday.
But his promotion is also a normal promotion, because the vacancy of Hanlin bachelor is due to the vacancy. Originally, he should be supplemented by a bachelor or a bachelor. This time, Wang Hao only said that he was promoted to a bachelor of Hanlin, the emperor. He handed over the affairs of the Hanlin Academy to him. As for matters such as Zhan Shifu and the imperial edict, the emperor did not explain it clearly, and he would probably explain it in detail later.
If there is only one Hanlin bachelor, and Wang Hao is the bachelor in charge, he will basically be responsible for all these errands.
Wang Hao suddenly became second only to the three cabinet members in the Ming Dynasty Hanlin system.
Pressure
In an instant, he felt a little out of breath.
Cheng Minzheng has learned from the past. As an "outsider", he has also been able to observe clearly. He also understands that Cheng Minzheng was wronged and knows the stakes behind it.
So when others came to congratulate him, he took the initiative to go over and communicate with several old ministers.
"Jizhi has managed to survive." Xie Qian said in front of many people, as if he was speaking unabashedly, "The people in our library are different from other officials. After reaching the rank of nine or nine years, I can't move my position, let alone do more for the imperial court. I need to give him more face when communicating with the Hanlin Academy."
"Ha. Haha." The people next to him just thought it was a joke, and many people responded with discouraged smiles.
Wang Haoze said respectfully, "Yu Qiao, you are just joking. I will cooperate with you in the future. Most of the things I do are lectures in the East Palace. I don't dare to go wild when I am doing banquets and lectures." ”
What he means is that I won’t follow you who are in charge of court affairs.You got involved.
My vision is to teach the emperor and the prince, especially the prince, so you just don’t regard me as a competitor and suppress me.
He came up to show weakness.
Tu Yu said, "Currently, Jizhi is still Zhan Shi, the younger brother of Zhan Shifu. He is not as good as Zhan Shi. Who should take up the position?"
This question is very direct.
Even if Xie Qian is good at speaking, it is not easy to answer the question at this time.
Zhan Shifu is responsible for the prince's education. In theory, Zhan Shifu should also be handed over to Wang Hao. However, the emperor only made Wang Hao the bachelor of the academy. As for the position of Zhan Shifu, the young master, Zhan Shifu He may also step down soon. Although Wang Hao is still the agent for Zhan Shifu's affairs now, there is a question of who will replace Wang Hao, or whether there will be anyone to replace him.
"Isn't there still a husband?" Li Dongyang reminded.
The ministers who were leaving the palace together then remembered that there was another protagonist today, Yang Tinghe, who was going back to his hometown to visit his relatives for four months, and was about to be promoted to a Hanlin bachelor when he came back.
The emperor also seemed to appreciate Yang Tinghe very much, and highlighted his achievements in compiling the Ming Dynasty Conference. If Yang Tinghe also became a Hanlin bachelor, he must have some errands, and the ministers would also think about the reason why the emperor The position of Zhan Shi in Zhan Shifu was not arranged. It is likely that Yang Tinghe will wait for Yang Tinghe to return and give this job to him.
"Jiefu, Your Majesty is here to fulfill your filial piety and etiquette. From now on, the Ming Dynasty will also rely on you." Li Dongyang turned back and said to Yang Tinghe.
Yang Tinghe looked very humble in front of a group of pavilion elders, ministers and Hanlin bachelors. He just cupped his hands and said nothing more.
Yang Tinghe is going back to his hometown to visit his relatives.
He did not express any views on the matter in front of others until after leaving the palace, Li Dongyang deliberately approached him and stopped him.
"Jiefu, what do you think about returning home?" Li Dongyang said.
In terms of the division of labor in the cabinet, Xie Qian was responsible for appeasing the people in the Hanlin Academy, while appeasing Yang Tinghe fell on Li Dongyang's shoulders.
Yang Tinghe said respectfully, "I can return to my hometown to visit my relatives, visit the hall and serve in front of you. I am grateful for His Majesty's kindness in my heart, and I will definitely live up to the emperor's kindness."
No matter what Yang Tinghe felt in his heart. How depressing, of course he said, I really want to go home and take care of my parents.
There is nothing that can be done. These days, officials are very concerned about the quality of filial piety. Yang Tinghe has not been back to visit his parents for many years. In addition, this time his younger brother Yang Tingyi also won the Jinshi. The emperor specially approved four He was asked to go back after a month's vacation. He felt that he had been cheated, but he still had to be patient and express his urgency to return to his hometown.
Li Dongyang said, "You are not holding your official position, but you are returning to your hometown in fine clothes. When you return to the capital, you will still have a share in compiling the canon. As for the Hanlin bachelor's degree, I will also fight for it for you."
Now Li Dongyang is not sure about the emperor's specific intentions. He told Yang Tinghe this mainly to show his goodwill and tell Yang Tinghe that you are one of ours and we will guarantee your safety.The official career is smooth sailing.
Even if you return to your hometown for four months, it will not affect your status in the Hanlin Academy system.
Yang Tinghe cupped his hands and said, "Li Ge is very fond of me, and I will do my best to serve the imperial court."
Yang Tinghe indeed regarded himself as an orthodox civil servant, plus he had previously Following the rules, he usually repairs books and consults on affairs, etc., in accordance with the instructions of the cabinet, especially in the repair of the Ming Dynasty Conference. Although nominally the three cabinet editors are the chief editors, in fact, the usual book repairs are burdened by them, such as the attendants and readers. On the minister's body.
Every time I communicate with Li Dongyang, the communication is very good. Li Dongyang and others show their trust and cultivation in him, and Yang Tinghe is also grateful for this.
But he still felt that he was not suitable to be a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, especially if he was directly promoted to a bachelor of the Imperial Academy as a minister, it would be a bit like being used as a spearman, and his own gun Before he could achieve anything, he was sent back to his hometown for four months by the emperor. Doesn't this show that he was hated by the emperor?
"Brother, I just became an official, why are you leaving now?"
When Yang Tinghe returned to his residence, Yang Tingyi, who was going back to his hometown with him, had packed up his belongings and brought a carriage over. Yang Tingyi was also very depressed.
I passed the Jinshi examination and lived a good life with my brother. Why did I suddenly say that I wanted to go back to my hometown to visit my relatives
It was such a nonsense reason to serve my parents
Yang Tinghe said, "Has the matter of the Ministry of Revenue's supervision of government been settled?"
"I no longer want to observe government, and I am going to ask the court to let the county magistrate go. Brother, please don't look at me in this way. I also want to pass the Dingjia exam, or select Shujishi to enter the palace, and work with you, brother, but it’s not up to anyone. If I can’t pass the Dingjia exam, my way of entering the palace is cut off. I might as well become a local official. , if the official department directly places him as the magistrate of Sichuan, I won’t even return to the capital.”
Yang Tingyi seemed to be thinking about it.
Others are struggling to stay in the capital as a capital official, but Yang Tingyi wants to quickly move to another place and become a county magistrate.
Yang Tinghe almost wanted to scold his younger brother for having no ambition.
Just as he was talking, someone approached his door. A man who looked like a guard in royal robes asked, "Are you Mr. Yang? Come and deliver a message to Eunuch Xiao and Mr. Zhang. They are about to arrive." Here we are."
"Yeah"
Yang Tinghe frowned.
I was ordered to go back to my hometown to visit relatives, and it was stipulated that I should leave quickly without delay. As a result, there was something else going on here about Xiao Jing and Zhang Zhou
Xiao Jing came to deliver a message on behalf of the emperor. Forget it, what does Zhang Zhou mean?
Yang Tinghe looked into the distance and saw that a carriage was arriving, but Zhang Zhou and Xiao Jing had no intention of riding together, so they each got off the carriage and walked towards him. come over.
In Yang Tinghe's small courtyard in the capital, the Yang brothers set up tables, chairs and benches, and greeted Xiao Jing and Zhang Zhou with freshly brewed tea.
Xiao Jing smiled and said, "Young Shidao and Yang Jinshi are both polite. We are here to say something to you two on behalf of Your Majesty. Your Majesty has specially prepared some for you brothers to return home."A small gift. "
"Don't bother Your Majesty. ”
Yang Tinghe’s expression was very strange.
Although Xiao Jing and Zhang Zhou were not seated, Yang Tinghe felt that he was undervalued by entertaining Zhongguan and Jinren in his own house.< /p>
No matter how favored Xiao Jing and Zhang Zhou are in front of the emperor, it seems that it has nothing to do with him.
Yang Tingyi smiled and said, "Eunuch Xiao, you are too polite. We brothers thank His Majesty for your kindness. ”
Compared with Yang Tinghe’s caution, Yang Tingyi seemed very “philistine”, and he almost had the words “I admire Eunuch Xiao” written on his face.
Xiao Jing was also curious.
Is this guy a Jinshi? Why does he look like a businessman in the market?
Only Zhang Zhou on the side is very clear about the fate of the Yang brothers.
Needless to say, Yang Tinghe was a illustrious hero of the Ming Dynasty, an uncrowned prime minister, and a future representative of the Qing Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty. Regardless of whether he had a bad relationship with Emperor Jiajing or not, and what his reputation was later, even if he was a powerful minister, he could not be denied. Contribution to the Ming Dynasty.
As for Yang Tingyi, he was just a villain.
Historically, Yang Tingyi relied entirely on his elder brother's support. When Liu Jin gained power, he became a eunuch, and later he followed Qian. Ning and Jiang Bin were flirting with each other. Even so, he was promoted to the Minister of War in the last years of Zhengde. He was only accused of corruption and bribery by the People's Ginseng. Moreover, Zhu Houcong, who had just ascended the throne at that time, investigated, so it should be true. Due to the power of Yang Ting and Taotian at that time , He just asked Yang Tingyi to return to his hometown without much care.
Although the two brothers are both officials, they have two different styles of work.
Yang Tinghe asked. "Eunuch Xiao, in addition to asking you to send some things, your Majesty also has other instructions."
Yang Tinghe could see that if he just sent some condolences, he would look down upon Mr. He Laodong Changchang's presence in person. Zhang Zhou, but now Zhang Zhou is favored among the courtiers in the palace, Zhang Zhou will not come to visit him easily.
Others want to curry favor with Zhang Zhou, but he wants to avoid Zhang Zhou. Zhou Yuan.
Xiao Jing asked, "Can I have a private conversation with Shi Yang?"
"This" Yang Tinghe looked at Yang Tingyi and said with a smile. "Brother Yang, let's go out and talk"
"Okay, okay. "When Yang Tingyi saw Zhang Zhou being so polite, he was naturally elated.
So that he wouldn't have to flatter himself.
When Zhang Zhou walked away.
Xiao Jing Cai Dao said, "Shi Yang, your Majesty is also afraid that you will be resentful and thinks that this is His Majesty's intention to target you, but this is not the case. Your Majesty listened to someone's advice and learned that your mother is in poor health. I hope you can go back and take care of me on your bed as soon as possible. "
"What?" Yang Tinghe became nervous when he heard it, "Mother"
"Don't be anxious, our family doesn't know the specific disease, and His Majesty has not sent anyone to you. I went to my hometown to inquire about it, but it’s too far away after all."
Yang Tinghe frowned when he heard this.
No one has visited, but they actually said that my mother is seriously ill
p>
If there is really relevant news, you should not inform me, the son, first
Xiao Jing said, "Go back and visit. If something really happens, you can also do your filial piety to the official." Regardless of your reputation, if you have nothing to do, you should go back for a walk. The position of Hanlin Bachelor will be reserved for you when you come back. You really shouldn't care about it."
"Yes. ”
Yang Tinghe was also a little confused.
He actually couldn’t understand the emperor’s intention of sending Xiao Jing here.
When the emperor suppressed him, he said he suppressed him. He also knew that he was from Liu Jian's faction. The emperor admired Wang Hao and wanted to promote Wang Hao. He is just a minister
But after the suppression was over, he sent Xiao Jing to say that all this is for your own good.
As he spoke, the emperor admired him very much and had the intention of drawing him back, which he couldn't understand.
Could this be considered as giving him a stick first and then giving him a sweet date to eat, or asking him to suppress his desire first, deliberately giving him a blow to let him know which side to stand in?
"Xiao Father-in-law, I dare to ask, how is my mother's condition?"
Yang Tinghe is a filial son. He hasn't seen his mother in many years. Knowing that his mother may be ill, he is also a little nervous.
Xiao Jing smiled and shook his head, meaning that he didn’t know.
"Eunuch Xiao, can I ask who informed my mother of her illness?" Yang Tinghe was still very serious.
Now that he is going back to his hometown, he doesn’t want to be kept in the dark.
Xiao Jing deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Let's be honest, someone who has seen your mother's illness did not tell you the specific situation, but Mr. Zhang, Zhang Jinshi who just edited the Hanlin, mentioned it to your majesty. Yes, he learned the situation through calculations. He was afraid that the old man would leave in a hurry and not see you, so he wanted you two brothers to go back together."
"What"
Yang Tinghe originally thought it was a local official who reported this matter, but the emperor kindly asked him to return to his hometown to visit relatives.
But when he found out that this was just something Zhang Zhou mentioned to the emperor, he was not only surprised but also filled with anger.
What a joke
You said my mother was sick, and you calculated it with your fingers when my mother was sick
Why don’t you go to heaven?
What’s even worse is that the emperor asked my brother and I to go back to our hometown to visit relatives just because of this bastard’s unreliable prophecy
Does Ming Dynasty still have Wang Fa and Tian Li in the officialdom?
Xiao Jing said in surprise, "Could it be that Yang Shidao doesn't believe that our family actually heard this, but they are quite worried about Yang Shidao. If Yang Shidao can go back to visit his mother when she is seriously ill, this is Such a reputation of filial piety can not only protect your own reputation of loyalty and filial piety, but also make His Majesty feel at ease. We really can’t think of anything wrong with this.”
Yang Tinghe almost said angrily, “Xiao. Father-in-law, if it is true that the mother of the family is ill, there is nothing wrong with saying so, but"
He didn't even know how to describe this.thing.
Is the emperor just so partial to what he believes?
What does Zhang Zhou say, what does he believe?
"Haha." Xiao Jing smiled with a smile. With some indifference, he said, "That is to say, Yang Shitao still doesn't believe it. But if you want to think about it, Mr. Yang Shitiao, Mr. Zhang has speculated on many things and fulfilled each one one by one. Do you mean to say that he just wants to let you Go back to serve your parents, and deliberately tell a non-existent thing to trouble you back and forth? Is serving your parents a good thing or a bad thing for Yang Shi?"
Yang Tinghe said goodbye To one side.
He also held back and did not say anything. He knew clearly what the purpose of that boy Zhang Zhou was.
Don’t think that because that kid has no stake in this matter, he can’t talk nonsense.
Wang Jizhi is his tutor. In order to help his tutor become a Hanlin bachelor, there is nothing he can't do.
Xiao Jing sighed, "Shi Yang doesn't appreciate what he said, so that's it." That’s all, it’s a waste of Your Majesty’s good intentions.”
“I have no doubts about Your Majesty’s intentions,” Yang Tinghe also quickly defended.
Suspicion that the emperor was cheating his ministers
In the eyes of these orthodox civil servants, Emperor Hongzhi was a benevolent king after all, and he should not deliberately cheat his ministers, so that can only be explained. The emperor was deceived by others.
In order to achieve his ulterior purpose, this boy Zhang Zhou deliberately deceived the emperor and drove me back to Sichuan so that I would not compete with Wang Jizhi for the position of Hanlin bachelor. I thought this boy had done something to benefit the country. To do things that benefit the people, even a close sycophant can be considered a good deed, but now it seems that he is full of evil and very evil.
Xiao Jing said, "It's fine if you don't doubt it. Then you shouldn't doubt Mr. Zhang either. He has no enmity with you. Why bother you? I have to remind you that you must rush back before late April, otherwise I regret leaving at the last moment”
Xiao Jing also has a temper.
You, Yang Tinghe, take yourself too seriously
Even if you are a minister, even if you really compete with Wang Hao, the emperor doesn’t want to use you, so he still has to negotiate with you
p>
It’s not your turn in terms of seniority
If Zhang Zhou wanted to recommend his own master, he would have done so long ago. We, the ceremonial supervisors and eunuchs, know very well that Zhang Zhou is involved in this matter He didn't say a word at all, as for you going back to your hometown to visit relatives.
People have good intentions, but you don’t appreciate them.
It’s really a good idea to treat it like a donkey’s liver and lungs.
Send away Zhang Zhou and Xiao Jing.
Yang Tinghe was so angry that he almost wanted to hit the door frame with his fist. < /p>
"You believe this?" Yang Tinghe glared at his younger brother, "Stay away from him in the future. Anyone who provokes such a near-sycophant will not be tolerated by the world. I will ignore my own opinions."
“Uh”
Yang Tingyi was scolded so hard that she looked confused.
I’m still wondering, what’s going on, brother?
