I want to be a grandson

Chapter 376 A lifetime of pride!
Kong Kezhun wiped away his tears and said: "My lord, to tell the truth, I have long thought of coming to the capital, to come to Yingtian Mansion to appeal for grievances, to tell about the suppression of our family by Beizong over the years, and to ask the court to preside over it." justice."

Tie Xuan frowned, and said persuasively, "Brother, I understand your feelings very well, but without evidence, this is a false accusation, how can Bei Zong be punished?"

But Kong Kezhun said: "My lord, I also understand that I can't do anything to them, but talking about the cannibalism of the same family will also make them jealous, and they dare not bully my family so recklessly!"

This is like the lid, when it is not lifted, no matter how much you bully, no one will see or pay attention.

But the lid was lifted, and everything was spread out on the table. Everyone knows that at that time, people's eyes will be fixed on Beizong and Nanzhong,
So it's not easy for Beizong to bully Nanzong anymore!

After all, in this era, people's clan concept is very strong.

A person who can't even tolerate people from the same clan as himself will have a bad reputation!
Tie Xuan said: "My dear brother, you are a filial person, it is really admirable to sue Beizong for your parents...

But after all, His Highness awarded you the Doctor of Five Classics of the Imperial Academy, if it spreads out, others may misunderstand that this is His Highness's instruction..."

Kong Kezhun is also a smart man, knowing the benefits of standing on the side of the emperor at this time,

Then he said firmly: "My lord, the grassroots are young and have little virtue, and His Highness's gift is really unbearable... Fortunately, His Highness's decree has not yet been issued, and it will not affect His Highness's reputation..."

Kong Kezhun knew very well in his heart that he, a small official from the eighth rank, could not stand up to Yan Shenggong's black hand at all!

And as long as Bei Zong is relieved, they will definitely attack him!

So as long as Beizong is still there, I won't be able to be a small official of the eighth rank for long!
Therefore, for the sake of the family's survival, no matter what, they must tear themselves apart from Beizong!

Moreover, making trouble at this time, revealing the scandal passed down by the same family of the Northern Clan, will add another major crime to the investigation of the Ministry of Criminal Justice!
The possibility of overthrowing Beizong is even greater!

Moreover, suing at this time is cooperating with the emperor's grandson!
As long as Jane is in the emperor's heart, even if she can't be an official for the time being, her family will definitely get better!

So Kong Kezhun made up his mind, he must seize such a good opportunity!

Tie Xuan tried to persuade him again, but Kong Kezhun made up his mind to sue the Kong family, such persuasion was useless at all.

And how could Tie Xuan really dissuade him!

In the end, he could only say helplessly: "Well then, my virtuous brother's magnanimity is really admirable. I'll go back and talk to His Highness..."

"Thank you sir!"

In the Wenhua Palace, Zhu Yunxi is dealing with government affairs.

Because after Zhan Hui, Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, was killed by himself, the Ministry of Rites did not set up another Shangshu.

At present, the affairs of the Ministry of Officials are handled by the servant Du Ze.

He put a bundle of thick books on Zhu Yunxi's table, and said, "Your Highness, this is the list of officials from various prefectures and counties in the Ming Dynasty. Please have a look at it, Your Highness."

Zhu Yunxi looked at so many rosters and stored them helplessly in his heart.

It depends on what year and month!I really thought I had a lot of time!

Zhu Yunxi asked: "Mr. Du, may I ask who is in charge of the Selected Works Department of the Ministry of Officials?"

He stretched out his hand to signal the eunuch to bring him a brocade stool and let him sit down.

Du Ze is old and his hair is a little gray, so Zhu Yunxi used the honorific title for him.

Du Ze replied, "Thank you, Your Highness... the Department of Wenxuan is in charge of the department. If your Highness needs anything, just ask."

The Department of Wenxuan of the Ministry of Officials is one of the four divisions of the Ministry of Officials. Originally, the doctor should be in charge, but because the Department of Wenxuan is very important, there is usually a heavenly official from the Ministry of Officials who is directly in charge.

The Department of Wenxuan is responsible for the selection, assignment, appointment and dismissal of officials all over the world.

The Ministry of Officials controls the officials all over the world, and the Department of Wenxuan and the Department of Examination of Gong of the Ministry of Officials are the most powerful departments in the Ministry of Officials.

Some officials would rather work as a doctor or member of foreign affairs in the Wenxuan Department and the Kaogong Department than go to the local government to hold official positions.

The Langzhong of these two divisions is the core department, and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials has no power to appoint and dismiss, and must ask for an order to be ordered by the emperor.

Zhu Yunxi said: "Mr. Du, I heard that you are from Shandong?"

Du Ze replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, I am from Yiyuan County, Shandong Province."

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said, "Shandong's officialdom will undergo some changes recently, and the positions of some officials will also need to be adjusted. Therefore, the Department of Literature Selection and the Department of Merit Examination must be prepared to deal with it."

Du Ze lowered his head and saluted, "Yes, I obey."

Zhu Yunxi glanced at him and said: "Mr. Du, Qi Tai, the household doctor, has done a good job in the household department. I plan to let him go to the official department to practice, and let him be transferred at the same level as the doctor of the examination department."

Zhu Yunxi understood the importance of the Ministry of Officials, and if he mastered the Ministry of Officials, he could appoint some loyal and upright officials.

You can also cultivate your own power more conveniently, and strive to promote your own people everywhere,
In this way, all the local officials in Ming Dynasty are their own people, that is the real stability as Mount Tai!

The merit examination department is to assess the merits of officials, to examine whether an official has merit or demerit, and then to determine rewards and punishments, and to determine the promotion, appointment and removal of official positions.

Therefore, in the Ministry of Officials, it belongs to the real real power department!

The merit examination department is responsible for evaluating officials at all levels in the world, and at the same time gives a list of officials who need to be promoted and punished.

Then, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials signed according to this list, and many of the officials may not be known to the Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Although the doctor of the Kaogong Division is only a fifth-rank official, he is at the same level as the prefects in other places, but the doctor of the Kaogongsi has the ability to toss the prefect to death!

Du Ze replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, I think that Qi Tai has outstanding talents, so it would be very good if he can come to the Ministry of Officials."

"Mr. Du said so, then I can rest assured..."

As an old minister, how could Du Ze not understand His Majesty's purpose of letting the emperor's grandson manage the official department.

If I don't agree, I'm afraid I'll be the one who changed it!

Zhu Yunxie said with a smile: "Mr. Du, don't praise Qi Tai too much. He still needs a lot of experience, otherwise he won't be a good man. In the future, Mr. Du's subordinates, please teach him more."

Du Ze hurriedly said: "Don't dare, the old minister's eyesight is dim, and his mind is not clear. If it wasn't for His Majesty's favor, how could he spend his time in the official department? If Qi Tai can come to the official department, then I will be free..."

Du Ze's words meant that after Qi Tai came, all the affairs of the official department would be entrusted to him, and he would be the master.

Don't fight or grab yourself, and be a mascot with peace of mind!

"Mr. Du is being polite, the officials will have to rely on you a lot in the future..."

Zhu Yunxi naturally liked such a self-aware veteran.

Qi Tai is only a fifth-rank official now, and there must be someone to support him in front of him, so that he can hold real power without appearing so obtrusive.

Although according to Zhu Yuanzhang's employment style, it is not impossible to be promoted to be the third-rank minister at once, or directly become the second-rank servant without being a minister.

But Zhu Yunxi was not prepared to do this.

Now that their official positions have been promoted so high, what should they do if they make contributions later?
The key point is that if he ascends the throne, he will definitely be rewarded. How should he be rewarded at that time?

What's more, they don't have that much credit now, if they are promoted too high all of a sudden, their food looks too ugly!
It is best to be able to hold real power without attracting criticism!

After sending Du Ze away, Zhu Yunxie ordered: "Wang Zhong, bring the northern scholars admitted last year to the Wenhua Hall."

Zhu Yunxi suddenly remembered that Jiake admitted some northern scholars last year, because he stood up for them and gave them money, so they were very grateful.

These people were recruited by themselves, and if they were promoted in person, they would be their own people!

After these people became Jinshi, some entered the Hanlin Academy, and some were appointed by the imperial court.

Except for the three who were released to become county magistrates, all the rest came.

When they got the order that the grandson of the emperor would meet them in Wenhua Palace, they were all very excited!
They had seen the wiseness of King Wu that day, and now they are about to see the dignity of His Royal Highness the Grandson of the Emperor!

"Your Majesty and I will pay homage to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, a thousand years old!"

"Everyone is flat."

"Thank you, His Royal Highness, the Empress Dowager!"

After everyone got up, Zhu Yunxi also stood up and walked among them with an eager smile on his face.

Said to one person: "Your name is Han Kezhong, right?"

Immediately, the young man was full of excitement, and hurriedly saluted: "Student Han Kezhong, pay homage to His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun!"

Zhu Yunxi said to another person: "Your name is Li Hao, and your name is Qiao An, right?"

The person who was pointed to said excitedly: "Students have met His Royal Highness!... Your Highness still remembers me, really... Really, I am flattered!"

Zhu Yunxi looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "You intercepted the king's car outside the palace, how could the king not remember!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately felt very embarrassed, but they also felt very proud in their hearts!
This may be the proudest thing I have done in my life!
How courageous it must be to stop Chujun's car from driving!

Everyone bowed and saluted, Han Kezhong said: "I was young and frivolous and acted recklessly. I had a lot of conflicts with Your Highness, and I ask Your Highness to forgive me..."

But Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and said in an extremely heroic manner: "You have been wronged, so naturally you want justice, what is the crime?!"

"The reason why this king admires you is that apart from your true talents and learning, the most commendable thing is this public heart!"
