Chapter 868: Reverence is beneficial to body and mind (eighth)
Li Dongyang, who was sitting aside, suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, I know a little bit, but he is not a Shujishi after all."
Li Dongyang directly rejected it with one vote. It was not Shujishi, which means that he did not hold a position in the Hanlin Academy, but was promoted by local officials.
It is a tradition for Hanlin to enter the cabinet, because after Shujishi entered the Hanlin, he would undergo many professional training, whether it was to enter the National History Museum, the Attorney Room or the Zhanshi Mansion. These learning experiences are related to governing the country and pacifying the world. Therefore, it is an unwritten rule that he would not enter the cabinet unless he was a Hanlin.
Zhang Cai said expressionlessly: "Li Xian is not Hanlin either."
Li Xian was a cabinet grandson during the reign of Emperor Yingzong. He was not from a Hanlin family. Moreover, after this person entered the cabinet, he had a very good official voice, so Zhang Cai used this to refute.
This time, Li Dongyang seemed to be determined to fight Zhang Cai. He smiled slightly and said, "Li Xian mentioned the "Ten Original Policies". Although he did not have the name of Hanlin, he had the reality of Hanlin. How dare you ask the Minister Liu Ji, do you have this knowledge?"
Zhang Cai frowned and was speechless for a moment.
Li Dongyang also said: "Liang Chu, the Right Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was twenty-four years old. He passed the Huiyuan exam in the Wuxu exam and ranked first in the second place in the palace exam. Jindian Chuanlu and entered the Hanlin to be a Shuji scholar. Later, in the fourth year of Hongzhi, he became a Hanlin scholar and was transferred to the right minister of the Ministry of Personnel. He had presided over the imperial examination and was honest and upright, and had always had an official reputation. Your Majesty, I think Liang Shi can do it."
Zhu Houzhao had no impression of the people they proposed, but had no idea.
Zhang Cai smiled: "Liang Chu was transferred to the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel last year. I am also a colleague of him, but he was mostly lazy during the inspection of the capital. I think this person should not be allowed to enter the cabinet."
Zhang Cai and Li Dongyang seemed to have put in full force and insisted on slandering the situation. Both sides went back and forth, and most of the suggestions were rejected.
Zhu Houzhao was having a headache when she was about to noon, but there was no suitable person to choose. Ye Chunqiu saw it, but only focused on Liu Jian, because Liu Jian didn't speak from beginning to end.
It was getting late, so Zhu Houzhao had to say discouraged: "The world is so big, don't you even have a single candidate? I'll talk about it today, and I'll talk about it tomorrow, I'm going to have a meal."
"Your Majesty..." At this moment, Liu Jian finally spoke: "I have a candidate."
Everyone cheered up and looked at Liu Jian with concentration. After all, he was the chief minister and his opinion was essential.
Zhu Houzhao was annoyed that she would continue to worry about such things tomorrow. Now that she heard that Liu Jian had someone to choose, she couldn't help but hurriedly said, "I don't know who it is?"
Liu Jian said lightly: "I think Wang Hua, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel in Nanjing, can do it."
As soon as the words were spoken, no one would make a sound in the hall.
Xie Qian and Li Dongyang obviously recognized Wang Hua. For them, this was at least the least bad choice.
But at this moment, Zhang Cai's face darkened. He suddenly felt something was wrong. He found that he could not refute that Wang Hua was the imperial teacher. What could you make mistakes? Moreover, whether it is qualifications or backgrounds, Wang Hua is almost an impeccable candidate.
After thinking about it, Zhang Cai could only say, "Prince? He retired a few times in the past, and he said he was old, weak and sick, so I was worried..."
Ye Chunqiu saw the opportunity because he saw Zhu Houzhao's relief, which means that Zhu Houzhao was already tired of it. Now he only wanted to have a candidate that could be accepted by all aspects. This was almost the only opportunity for Zhang Cai to reject it, and Zhang Cai could only use his body to make a fuss.
Ye Chunqiu immediately said: "I have no choice but to pay attention to Mr. Taishan. Besides, he is in his prime. Where did he get sick?"
Zhang Cai's face couldn't help but suck. The son-in-law even jumped out and said something. What else could you say? He pursed his lips and didn't say anything else.
Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao cheered up and said, "Master Wang, okay, then it's him. Since all the ministers have no objection here, then in a few days, let's make the final decision."
Ye Chunqiu was relieved. Although it still took a court push to complete the program, Zhang Cai and others could no longer recommend a better candidate. Even if they strongly opposed it, they could not find a reason. Then this matter was a foregone conclusion.
The mission is done!
Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but be excited. He was almost certain that if Liu Jin knew that Wang Hua had entered the cabinet, he would probably be furious. In fact, from the beginning, Liu Jin and Zhang Cai and others were all in a misunderstanding. Ye Chunqiu's father-in-law, who had been expelled from the core of power, repeatedly wrote letters to beg for retirement. They never regarded Wang Hua as a threat. However, they never expected that the final result was that Yang Tinghe and Liu Yu's defeat, and Wang Hua easily took over.
Not easy.
From then on, I became the son-in-law of the Grand Secretary of Wuying Palace.
Since the agreement was made, everyone took their leave. Zhu Houzhao left Ye Chunqiu alone and said, "Chunqiu, accompany me to have a meal."
Ye Chunqiu did not dare to neglect, so he stayed to accompany Zhu Houzhao for lunch. Zhu Houzhao looked a little annoyed and said, "Actually, Yang Tinghe or Liu Yu were good at entering the pavilion. When Master Wang entered the pavilion, I felt a little furious. Oh... But what can I do? After all, there is no better candidate than him." Then, he smiled at Ye Chunqiu and said, "I don't mean to be disrespectful to your Mount Tai. He is also my mentor. But Chunqiu, aren't you afraid when you see your mentor?"
Only those like His Majesty will be afraid. Ye Chunqiu thought to himself, but then said: "Your Majesty, people understand awe are beneficial to their body and mind."
"Hmm?" Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment and said, "What's the reason?"
Ye Chunqiu said: "The kings who have lost their country in the past dynasties have many reasons for the destruction of their country, but they have one thing in common, that is, they do not know how to be awe. King Zhou of Shang did not respect Bigan. Therefore, during the Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Yang of Sui often told people that he did not like others to criticize others. Those who have high status and want to gain a reputation through criticism are very disliked. As for people with low status criticizing him, although they can be forgiven slightly, they will not let him go in the end. Your Majesty, you see, these two people have no awe and are inevitably conceited. In the end, they will die if they die. "
Zhu Houzhao was confused when she heard this and said blankly: "What does this have to do with Master Wang's entry into the pavilion?"
