Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 597Hand in hand?
In the system of the Ming Dynasty, the Imperial Academy was also a very special yamen.

Although, like other yamen, the Hanlin Academy has a chief official and a secondary official, and the bachelor in charge of the academy has the power to restrain the officials in the yamen.

However, the special feature of the Hanlin Academy is that this yamen is the closest yamen to the emperor besides the cabinet.

Diligent learning has been the way to prosperity since ancient times. Therefore, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there has been a tradition of Jingyan.

The banquet of knowing the scriptures has thus become a rewarding errand.

However, no matter who the ministers who knew the scripture banquet were, those who were really responsible for running the scripture banquet and often discussing the classics, history and political affairs with the emperor must be these ordinary officials of the Hanlin Academy.

The so-called Qingliu Huaxuan, the minister of attendants, came from this.

It is precisely because the high-level officials of the Hanlin Academy are qualified to participate in the early court and the Jingyan, so in fact, it is very difficult for Xiao Yi, a bachelor in charge of the academy, to use power to bring these arrogant Hanlins under his sect. difficulty.

Although on the surface, these compilations and lectures were all polite when treating Xiao Ying.

However, it is basically impossible for them to be honest and completely obey the command of Xiao Ying, the academician in charge, just like other yamen.

In many key government affairs, these people would rather help their teacher, Chen Xun, the current minister of the Ministry of Industry, than follow Xiao Yi, a bachelor in charge of the academy.

As for those lucky people, because Xiao Yi holds their future in his hands, he is respectful.

However, they are just watching politics, and they don't even have a serious official position, let alone speak out in the court, they are at best a reserve.

Therefore, for Xiao Yi, on the one hand, he hopes to use this spring to recruit a group of talents and bring them under his sect.

On the other hand, he also hopes to promote a group of people who are close to him through the dispersal of Shu Jishi.

You know, after this period of time, although Xiao Yi didn't seem to do anything, he had already found several candidates.

For the rest, he originally planned to temper his temper, but now...

Seeing Wang Wen's smiling face, Xueshi Xiao scolded the heavens in his heart, but he didn't speak for a long time, only a look of distress.

He also doesn't want to fight against the emperor!
In fact, Xiao Ying's official career was not smooth. He sat on the bench for many years in the position of Jijiu in Guozijian, but when he arrived in Jingtai Dynasty, he was suddenly promoted to the position of Hanlin Bachelor.

For the emperor, Xiao Yi is grateful.

During this period of time, the emperor has not been too cold about the attitude of the Hanlin Academy, which makes Xiao Ying feel even more sorry.

He always felt that he was not capable enough to unify the voices of the Imperial Academy, so that the emperor could not use such a great team of servants in the court.

From this perspective, he actually did not want to disobey the emperor's will.

However, the number of three hospital stays is too small...

Xueshi Xiao hesitated for a while, but finally decided to try again.

As a result, before he could speak, the voice of the Son of Heaven sounded again.

"Mr. Xiao, in the Imperial Academy, how many are there reading, lectures, editing, editing, and reviewing?"

The Hanlin Academy is the same as other yamen. The chief official is a Hanlin bachelor, and the ruling and opposition parties are also called the master of the academy.

Further down, it is the reading of the sixth grade, the lecture, the compilation of the sixth grade, the editing of the seventh grade and the review of the seventh grade.

Usually, at the sutra banquet, Xiao Yi usually brought the Bachelor's Attendant and the Bachelor's Attendant to approach each other, and the others served at a distance, so it's not surprising that the emperor didn't know how many of them there were.

What puzzled Xiao Ying was, why did the topic suddenly change to this place?

But although he didn't want to understand, Xiao Yan didn't dare to neglect, and said.

"Returning to Your Majesty, now in the Imperial Academy, there are four tutors, three lecturers, six editors, seven editors, and 11 reviewers."

These people are all students of Chen Xun...

Xueshi Xiao silently added a sentence in his heart.

As a result, everyone could see with naked eyes that there was a hint of doubt on the face of the emperor, and he could only hear the emperor's words.

"Otsuka Zai, Imperial Academy, why are there so many people?"

This sentence stunned the elders present.

Son of Heaven, what does this mean?
Why, you only found out today that there are so many people in the Imperial Academy?

Besides, is there anything wrong with that?

Seeing everyone's doubts, the emperor frowned quickly, obviously a little angry.

At this time, Mr. Wang, who claimed to know the emperor best, finally reacted and said.

"Your Majesty, the system of the Hanlin Academy was established in the 14th year of Hongwu. According to the system, the Imperial Academy has one bachelor, two attendants, two attendees, two attendees, two attendants, and three editors. , four editors, and four reviewers each, and now there are indeed more officials in the Imperial Academy than customization."

When Wang Wen said this, the other ministers immediately reacted.

The ministers who can enter the hall today, except for the clan and nobles, are all well-known and memorized. They are at least familiar with the changes in the court's many codes, not to mention by heart.

Indeed, from an institutional perspective, the Imperial Academy should not have so many officials.

However, this is actually a historical legacy.

Just now Wang Wen said that the staffing system of the Imperial Academy was established during the Hongwu period.

However, the system of Shujishi was established in the second year of Yongle.

According to the original design of the Imperial Academy, the top three of the first class can enter the Imperial Academy and be directly awarded officials, and the examination is held every three years, which just happens to be the assessment period for officials of the Imperial Academy.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, every three years, the Ministry of Officials will conduct an assessment of the officials of the Imperial Academy. The superior ones will be promoted, and the inferior ones will be demoted.

However, due to the addition of the Shujishi system in the Yongle Dynasty, this cycle was broken.

First-class Jinshi are still directly awarded officials, but after Shu Jishi disbands, they will also stay in the Imperial Academy, which led to a serious excess of the Imperial Academy.

It has been a long time, so that the courtiers are used to it.

It's like the official positions of the Imperial Academy, except for the bachelor of the academy and the second official, the others are not fixed, and there are as many as there are awarded.

However, after reacting, the elders were suddenly shocked.

Could it be that the Son of Heaven had planned long ago to take care of the Hanlin Academy?
Thinking about it further, it seems that the emperor has not been very close to the Hanlin Academy since he took the throne, and...

The bosses looked around and realized that, as the former head of the Academy, Chen Xun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, who was the most able to solve the problems of the Imperial Academy, was not summoned.

In fact, just before Wang Wen said these words, no one thought about it. After all, the discussion of the military settlement had nothing to do with the Ministry of Industry. It was normal that Chen Xun hadn't been summoned.

But, thinking about it deeper, is this really the case?
Others don't know about the memorials of the Ministry of War and Yu Qian's plan, but the elders would definitely not believe him if he said that he didn't report to the emperor in advance.

Then, if the Son of Heaven really intends to let the Shu Jishi change his way of study and let Chen Xun come over, it should be the best way.

After all, these Shujishi are different from those who have already been appointed officials. Although they have a teacher-student relationship with Chen Xun, since they are Shujishi, it means that they have not been in the Imperial Academy for a few years. The bachelor is also their teacher.

Therefore, if it is possible to call them out, Chen Xun should be very happy.

However, the emperor did not do this, which means it is worth pondering...

　The line of the Hanlin Academy has not been straightened out, and it has been straightened out again, and by the way, the previous chapters that conflict with this chapter have been changed.
