The emperor said in front of the ceremonial supervisor and eunuch that he didn’t know who he could trust.
The implication is that I can no longer completely trust you, and it can be deduced that the emperor only trusts Zhang Zhou.
This made Xiao Jing deeply feel that a huge crisis was about to come.
As a eunuch of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, he is the one who approves and uses seals on behalf of the emperor, but he can't even gain the emperor's trust. Doesn't this also mean that Xiao Jing's time in the Supervisor of Ceremonies will not last long. Who can? After establishing a good relationship with Zhang Zhou, whoever will be the next eunuch of the Clerk of Ceremonies
"Eunuch Xiao."
Yang Peng followed Xiao Jing out, wanting to ask for instructions.
After all, Yang Peng was not admitted to the Bureau of Ceremony, and the admiral Dongchang seemed to have an unjust reputation, and all he could rely on was his close relationship with Zhang Zhou.
Xiao Jing said earnestly, "Yang Peng, when I work for His Majesty, I can't let Him down. You see, what His Majesty said is that he is dissatisfied with Dongchang's work."
Yang Peng thought to himself, right?
It seems that His Majesty said that he does not trust you
"Yes, Eunuch Xiao taught us that we must work hard and live up to our expectations." Your Majesty's trust." Yang Peng said.
It’s okay if you don’t mention the word “trust”, but if you mention it, it’s a bit of a slap in Xiao Jing’s face.
Xiao Jing said, "Is Mr. Lai Guo really gone?"
"I'm leaving. I have to leave the city today. No one came to see him off, but His Majesty sent a group of Dongchang and Jinyiwei. He also arranged for reception and escort from various places, and the Beijing camp also allocated 200 people to accompany him south."
Yang Peng explained the truth to Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing said with a straight face, "These resignings are like going out on patrol. It's such a grand ceremony."
Yang Peng said, "This is your Majesty's order."
Xiao Jing turned his head, glanced at Yang Peng coldly, and said, "Did His Majesty arrange errands for him?"
"I don't know." Yang Peng said, "But didn't His Majesty say that, If you remove all the official positions of Lai Guogong and only retain the title of Duke, if you appoint errands, you will be easily criticized by the ministers of the court."
Xiao Jing said, "Official positions are official positions, and errands are errands. Your Majesty is not saying that. He went to the south of the Yangtze River to observe the people's sentiments. If there are any matters related to the sect, let him check it out."
Yang Peng thought for a while, and looked very sure and said, "Your Majesty only asked Dongchang and Jinyiwei to escort you. He didn’t mention any relevant errands. It stands to reason that His Majesty wants to hire people and is not in a hurry. Didn’t His Majesty say before that there have been new disasters recently?"
"You have to say"
Xiao He was so angry that he almost got angry at Yang Peng.
Yang Peng was also very happy.
For Yang Peng, there is a feeling that the casino has made the right bet. Although Zhang Zhou is currently unsuccessful, in fact, it is all a show. The emperor's move is just to highlight Zhang Zhou's status. Come out, who will say that I, Yang Peng, will always be inferior to others? Maybe I can also become the chief of etiquette, the palm of my hand, and the eunuch Dangdang
CabinetValue for money.
When Chen Kuan, the Eunuch Bingbi, the Superintendent of Ceremonies, came to inquire about the drafts of the two memorials, he handed a note written by Xiao Jing from his arms to Li Dongyang.
I didn’t give it directly to Liu Jian to avoid being seen by people from Zhongshushe outside.
"Here."
After Chen Kuan left, Li Dongyang handed the note intact to Liu Jian.
Liu Jian just glanced at it, then casually put the note into the water in the tea cup, crushed it and poured it away.
Xie Qian asked "What"
Li Dongyang said, "Eunuch Xiao sent a letter saying that there has been a disaster in the capital recently."
"So fast"
Xie Qian is still thinking about Zhang Zhou’s departure from the capital within three months. It seems that Zhang Zhou is going to have a “good luck” and encounter a natural or man-made disaster in the capital within these three months. , or find someone to create something topical.
The result is that now, an unstoppable disaster will happen soon
Xie Qian looked at Liu Jian and Li Dongyang, who looked gloomy, and asked, "Don't take it too seriously if he says yes." Keep it in your heart."
This "he" can refer to Xiao Jing, or any one of Chen Kuan, Zhang Zhou, and Zhu Youtang.
The general meaning is that disasters like this are not something that can happen just by talking about it.
Li Dongyang said, "Since Eunuch Xiao sent the message specifically, it means that Eunuch Xiao did not speculate on his own, but got the tip from His Majesty. This tip came from Zhang Bingkuan. Moreover"
Liu Jian asked "What are you worried about?"
"Oh," Li Dongyang said, "Eunuch Xiao clearly meant that His Majesty knew something but did not tell him. There are some problems. This is all because of Zhang Bingkuan."
Xie Qian laughed and said, "The Chief of Ceremonies was also involved in the previous matter. How could your Majesty not know who benefited from Zhang Bingkuan's weak position. Then when Zhang Bingkuan was strong, everyone would suffer from the ebb and flow of one thing and the other, including the officials in charge of ritual supervision, including Eunuch Xiao, wouldn’t they not even have this awareness?"
I want to fight Zhang Zhou, I want to defeat Zhang Zhou, and enjoy the power that Zhang Zhou gave up.
I don’t want to bear the consequences after losing the fight. There are so many good things for you
Li Dongyang said, "If this is the case, even if there is a real disaster, Zhang Bingkuan will be tabooed by others, both in the government and in the public. There is no one else available. This is not necessarily a bad thing."
Xie Qian nodded and commented, "It's hard to do anything alone."
If this was what Zhang Bingkuan would have done, he would have arrived earlier." /p>
Li Dongyang shook his head firmly this time and said, "Judging from Zhang Bingkuan's previous interactions with Xu Qiong and Shen Lu, the Minister of Rites, it's not that he doesn't want to form a party or take power, but that he can't fit in the court." In the hall. After this incident, His Majesty’s changes to the Chief of Ceremonies and the members of the cabinet will finally fall on us.”
Xie Qian sighed. p>
Liu Jian glanced at the two of themHe said, "Looking at you like this, it seems that the disaster will come."
"No way?" Xie Qian asked with a smile.
Even Liu Jian has no confidence now.
If everyone is waiting for a disaster, and that disaster was predicted by Zhang Zhou and the emperor believed it so firmly, then even if the disaster does not come, it seems that everyone feels that it must come.
Among the three members of the cabinet, Li Dongyang is actually the one who looks relatively relaxed.
It was a time when the ministers of the court were about to undergo major changes. Although the emperor had not previously asked the cabinet to propose candidates for the cabinet, because of Zhang Zhou's presence, it was also a time when traditional civil servants were fighting with Zhang Zhou. To open the relationship, Liu Jian specifically asked Li Dongyang to go back and study, communicate with the candidates who might join the cabinet, and then make some reserves.
This time Xie Qian did not participate in the conversation between the two.
"Wang Hua and Liang Chu, if Jie Fu were here, he would have been the best candidate. In addition, Wang Hao, Jiao Fang, and Cheng Minzheng who is now in Nanjing"< /p>
Under the Hanlin system, Li Dongyang was all "one of his own" and everyone knew him, regardless of their friendship.
When it comes to this group of people, they are like a treasure trove.
Liu Jiandao, "If I were Your Majesty, if you want to be close to Zhang Bingkuan and balance the relationship between civil servants, you can only choose between the two."
"Oh." Li Dongyang paused slightly. After a pause, "Wang Hua, Wang Hao"
"Yes."
Liu Jian nodded.
Since the emperor wanted to add a cabinet minister, he must have considered that he had a good relationship with Zhang Zhou, so as to pave the way for Zhang Zhou to ascend to the throne in the future.
Wang Hua is the father of Zhang Zhou’s capable general Wang Shouren, and Wang Hao is Zhang Zhou’s mentor. The relationship between these two people and Zhang Zhou is not shallow, but there is no deep friendship. Shen himself was both an orthodox Hanlin official and had a good reputation in the court.
Li Dongyang said, "Wang Jizhi is more likely. After all, he has known Zhang Bingkuan for a long time, but why wouldn't Zhang Bingkuan join the cabinet himself?"
"It's too early." Liu Jian The answer was straightforward, "In such a troubled time, Your Majesty directly asked him to join the cabinet. Although His Majesty valued him more, he did not use him excessively."
Li Dongyang smiled bitterly and said, "So many titles. and official position, it’s not too much.”
Liu Jian’s aura was a bit strong.
This is getting angry at the slightest disagreement.
Li Dongyang said, "That's right. I haven't become a minister yet. When the court officials changed this time, Zhang Bingkuan was out of town. Your Majesty will never leave him a position. Wait for him to come back and take over. In fact, he is in Nanjing." It would be good to arrange an official position for him."
Liu Jiandao, "Go and see Wang Dehui and talk to him about this matter. If possible, try to find an opportunity to talk to him without making any noise. , take advantage of this Imperial Academy inspection to help him pass the first-class exam and advance to the next level."
This is to train Wang Hua as the prime minister.
This also shows that Liu Jian completely gave upThe king is jealous.
"Yeah." Li Dongyang also agreed.
Because in Li Dongyang's heart, he also recognized Wang Hua more and had a better personal relationship. On the contrary, after he was promoted to the Imperial Academy of Sciences, the relationship with Wang Hao had reached a point where they were neither far nor close.
Liu Jian asked Li Dongyang to contact Wang Hua privately, and Li Dongyang was not in a hurry.
Li Dongyang was on duty that night and returned to his home after attending the court meeting early the next morning. When he entered the house and was about to take a good rest, he saw someone carrying things out.
"What to do?"
Li Dongyang stopped the servant who was moving things.
The servant said, "It was the young master's order. He said he was going on a long trip."
"What?" Li Dongyang frowned.
What is his son trying to do?
Li Dongyang said with a dark face, "Call him here."
The servant said, "The young master went to meet his friends early in the morning. I haven’t come back yet. I just asked someone to prepare everything.”
“Then we said where we were going.” Li Dongyang looked at him sharply.
The servant looked evasive and said in his heart, don’t blame me for your father and son’s affairs. I am just a follower of orders.
The servant said, "He said he was going south."
"Ask him to come back and see me immediately. Then I will send someone to find him. I don't know what to say." Li Dongyang was also angry.
Li Dongyang specially entered the study room where his son usually studied. When he saw the things inside, he felt very angry.
The servant next to him who was responsible for cleaning the study felt even more headache.
"What do I usually read?"
Li Dongyang picked up some paper and wrote poems and sentences on them. As soon as he saw the words and sentences, he knew that it was his son's handwriting, because It's really the kind of sour sentence, the so-called empty words, it's just this kind of words.
Looking next to it, there are also various books and notes on spiritual studies, various insights, etc.
"He is energetic, but he is not in the right place." Li Dongyang commented.
The old servant understood immediately.
Perhaps in my opinion, since the young master’s condition has improved greatly, he should focus on some important matters of “making a young master”. That is the right place to use his energy.
On the contrary, reading and writing poems have become a distraction.
After a long time, Li Zhaoxian came back accompanied by his servants. Li Zhaoxian was still very excited to see Li Dongyang, as if he had not heard from some kind of Coming out of an intracranial orgasm, he said, "Father, there is something wrong with you."
Li Dongyang was looking at the Xinxue classics at this time, which was the version printed by Zhang Zhou.
In the past, Li Dongyang had only heard of Xin Xue and knew the influence that this scholarship had in the capital within a year, but this was his first time to see it.
He sat there by himself and stared at it for a long time without realizing it. Even for a person as conceited as he was, he only regained his concentration after being slightly dazed after reading it.
Li Dongyang said, "SayYou want to go out, where are you going?"
Li Zhaoxian smiled and said, "Oh, you are just going out to meet a few friends."
"Then you want to see friends somewhere, and you need to travel far. "Li Dongyang threw the books on the table.
Li Zhaoxian couldn't hide it, so he said, "I'm going to Yingtian Mansion. "
"You" Li Dongyang almost wanted to pick up a stick and hit someone, but with his open-mindedness, he still held back, "You know what you are doing, but you still have rules for how to behave."
p>
Li Zhaoxian said, "Many people want to go. Originally, after Mr. Zhang returned to Beijing, many people wanted to personally witness his academic battle with the Lingnan School about psychology. However, because he suddenly wanted to return to his hometown, the arena was no longer open. It was placed in Yingtianfu City. Now this is the most important event in the literary world. Among the people I know in the capital, at least half of them have left. "
Li Dongyang frowned when he heard this.
We "driven" Zhang Bingkuan to Nanjing City in the court, and the boy left in despair on the same day.
As a result, my son and a group of scholars, Peipianpidian, wanted to follow him to Nanjing just to participate in an academic ceremony
"Father, you don't know, although Mr. Zhang has not officially started teaching classes yet, he There are no academic disciples to his name, but many people want to be his disciples, and this discussion is a sign that he has entered the literary world. Many people also want to use this to express their opinions, whether it is to support him Those who disagree with him, or those who oppose him, will be heard by him personally, and can also be debated in academic circles. "
"If there are those who can deeply understand his academic thoughts, they may be directly accepted as disciples. I want to try it. ”
Li Zhaoxian is so sincere.
“Bastard” Li Dongyang was furious.
If my son becomes Zhang Bingkuan’s disciple, then I What will other people think of me if I still fool around in the court? Li's family is unlucky
My son is shameless, and I still want to be shameless.
Li Zhaoxian was very surprised by his father's reaction. , he said, "Father, my relationship with Mr. Zhang is incomparable to others. After all, it was Mr. Zhang who treated me and allowed me to have this extended life. With my extended life, I can learn from him and become famous in the Ming Dynasty in the future. What's wrong with this?"
Li Dongyang He said, "The so-called Xinxue is nothing but sensationalism. The praise others give this person is not mostly due to following the trend. Why should you follow the trend?"
Li Zhaoxian insisted, "I am not following the trend. I don’t think Xin Xue is just trying to impress people, I just want to learn knowledge. As for what the father wants, when the son has hope in his heart to expand the family, he can work hard for it, but now, the father please respect the son's choice. ”
This time, Li Dongyang will not be able to deal with it.
It is rare for Li Dongyang to see his son so persistent for one thing.
There is one thing about Li Zhaoxian What impressed Li Dongyang was that Li Zhaoxian said that he needed to find someone to support him first.
Li Zhaoxian said.Dongyang thought about his son's biggest hope in the past, which was to look for flowers and ask willows. As a result, he got into trouble all over and almost lost his life. Now he finally "turned around" and changed his mind to study knowledge. Even Qinlou Chuguan and Jiaofangsi didn't After going, do I still have to restrict him from learning and let him fall into the trap of drinking and sex?
"You can go, but you can't become a disciple." Li Dongyang could only compromise.
There is nothing we can do.
Li Dongyang is known as a strict father, but the problem is that his family's hopes for prosperity are all pinned on Li Zhaoxian, and his doting on his son will come from invisible.
Li Zhaoxian said, "Ke'er"
"No need to say any more." Li Dongyang raised his hand and said, "You should also be aware of the current situation in the DPRK. Zhang Bingkuan's reputation is not well known among scholars. , if you worship him as your teacher, let him tell you how to gain a foothold in the court, not to restrict you, but to consider your own background. If you can go further in the autumn of next year, let me go as you go."
Li Zhaoxian was just an Imperial College student, not a civil servant.
When bargaining with my father, I don’t seem to have much initiative.
His father asked him to follow the crowd and go to Nanjing to join in the fun, which was already extremely gracious, and Li Zhaoxian also knew not to go too far.
"Okay." Li Zhaoxian said, "I will study hard there and strive to get into high school as soon as possible."
"Okay, let's go down"
Li Dongyang Make someone angry.
When Li Dongyang entered the inner courtyard to rest, there was a lot of noise outside.
Li Dongyang knew that because of his approval, his son was going to have fun, so he didn't bother to pay attention. He tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep, all he could think about was Zhang Zhou.
Thinking about it too.
What kind of magic power does Zhang Bingkuan have that can make so many people worry about him?
I was in a daze until sunset when I woke up. I had just washed up here. The servant came to report Li Zhaoxian's affairs.
"It's okay to go." Li Dongyang said, "Didn't you take his wife with you?"
"Yes." The servant said, "In addition to the young lady, there is also a young lady. ”
“What”
Li Dongyang only then knew that his son not only went to Nanjing as a couple, but also “abducted” his daughter away.
The servant asked curiously, "Master, the young master said, this is your order."
"I"
Li Dongyang almost couldn't breathe .
I only said to let him go alone, and he would take his wife with him and make a baby along the way. p>
The servant said, "Miss, I also want to go together. When I went out, I saw many young men from other noble families, and they were also traveling together in several carriages. They said they were going to Nanjing City to attend some cultural event. Master, what are you doing?" "Calm down, I'll go back to work now."
