I want to be a grandson

Chapter 471 The prototype of the cabinet
The disbanded "cabinet" personnel were notified by Zhu Yuanzhang to the Ministry of Officials, and they were placed in various places according to their individual talents and the needs of the court.

Some of the devolved places served as local officials, while others were assigned to the idle yamen of the Imperial Academy.

But no matter where they are placed, there is some gap in their hearts.

When I was with the emperor before, although the official position was not big, everyone respected him. The seven-rank officials who went to the prime minister's door, and the people around the emperor were even more noble.

Jian Yi (jian, three tones, the same pronunciation as Jianyi) who returned to the Imperial Academy also received strange glances from his colleagues.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Jian? Why did you come to the Imperial Academy? Could it be that His Majesty has some orders?" The other party said deliberately with a mocking smile on his face.

"Your Majesty Jian Yi is a palace scholar. He is very noble. He often serves His Majesty. That is something we can easily see..."

"I heard that Mr. Jian was a Jinshi in Hongwu for 18 years. This is not a short time! I have been with His Majesty for so long, and I must be very suspicious in terms of knowledge and qualifications. I can make some progress..."

"Master Gao is right! It's time to get close. In the future, Mr. Jian will flourish, so don't forget to wait for me. By the way, what business does Mr. Jian have? Is there anything we can do for you?"

Facing such ridicule, Jian Yi clasped his fists and said: "Comrades, Your Majesty sent the officials back to the Imperial Academy for no business purpose. Please take care of me in the future, please be polite..."

"It's easy to say, everyone is a colleague..."

"My lord Jian came back to the Imperial Academy, and I suddenly felt that it was full of splendor..."

"Hahaha, it's extremely..."

Jian Yi saluted again and said, "I still have to go to the bachelor's office to register, excuse me..."

Some people are unavoidably small-minded, and when they see others descending from a height, they will sneer and make yin and yang tones.

Those who go up the mountain should never look down on the person who goes down the mountain, because he has been beautiful before, but you are still down the mountain. Not everyone understands this truth.

Jian Yi didn't care as much as they did, but he was also a little disappointed.

In terms of age and qualifications, he became an official earlier than many people, and was promoted and appreciated earlier, but these years he still stood still without any promotion.

The future is unknown, how can I really feel at ease in my heart.

It took a while for Jian Yi to settle down in the Imperial Academy. Those mocking people found it boring seeing him not accepting the call, so they stopped talking to him, and Jian Yi's ears calmed down.

At the same time, he also gave up, and didn't want to think about any further promotions. He was struggling, and in the end he still didn't return to his original place!

Fame and fortune, alas, you should relax...

One day, when he was sitting on a chair with his eyes in a daze, an official who often mocked him hurriedly ran up to him,
Panting hotly, he said, "My lord Jian, hurry up, someone is coming from the palace, and a message has been sent to tell you to hurry over!"

Jian Yi was confused for a while, and asked, "In the palace? Where are you going?"

"Oh, don't say so much, of course it is the Wenhua Palace of the Eastern Palace! You will know when you go!"

Jian Yi came to the lobby of the Imperial Academy, and saw the eunuch who was passing the message, the eunuch said to him: "Master Jian, His Royal Highness, the Emperor Taisun, please come to Wenhua Palace to speak, please..."

"Thank you!"

Under everyone's envious eyes, Jian Yi followed the eunuch and left the Imperial Academy, leaving everyone with complex expressions behind.

"My humble minister, Jian Yi, pay homage to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, Wan An!"

"Get up, don't be too polite."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Zhu Yunxi sat on the chair, flipping through Jian Yi's resume and hometown.

He is a native of Ba County, Chongqing Prefecture. In the 17th year of Hongwu, he participated in the Sichuan Provincial Examination and passed the examination.In the 18th year of Hongwu, he was the third-ranked Jinshi, promoted to Zhongshusheren, and awarded Zhengshilang.

Jian Yi's performance was in line with Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes, and he was rewarded several times.

Zhu Yuanzhang once asked, "Are you a descendant of Uncle Jian?" Jian Rong kowtowed and dared not answer.Zhu Yuanzhang liked his honesty very much, so he changed his name to Yi, and wrote down the name of Jian Yi to him.

Mrs. Ding Luo was worried. She received a special reward, a road fee, and ordered her to return home.

So judging from these experiences alone, he was appreciated and favored by Zhu Yuanzhang, but he was still far behind his peers.

The first time they met, Zhu Yunxi asked a very sharp question: "Are you a Jinshi in Hongwu's 18th year?"

"Yes, Hongwu ranked third in 18..."

"The Jinshi on the same list as you is the current Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, Qin Kui. He was the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry in the 22nd year of Hongwu, that is, five years ago. How can you be a Zhengshilang of the seventh rank?"

This question is quite embarrassing!

It is equivalent to saying that people of your age drive Mercedes-Benz and BMW, why do you still ride a bicycle?

According to the general answer, there must be people who are the same age as you die, why don't you die?

But who made him the grandson of the emperor!
You must never dare to say these words!

Moreover, after such a long period of tempering, Jian Yi's spirit has long been worn down, and he replied calmly: "Reporting to Your Highness, it must be that this humble minister has many flaws, and he needs to go through many experiences before he can use it. Therefore, over the years The humble official has not been promoted, and is still a seventh-rank Zhengshilang?"

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said: "There are very few perfect people in the world, and most of the good and virtuous talents need to be polished. Although some people can use it for a while, they can't use it for the rest of their lives. Some people are proud and depressed half their lives.

Those who become masters must be unable to bear loneliness, practice hard, and improve every day, so that they can walk steadily in the second half of their lives.
Jian Yi, can you now understand the painstaking efforts of Grandpa Huang? "

Jian Yi heard the words, and fell to the ground with a plop, "Your Majesty has been accomplished for many years, and my humble minister has little merit and virtue. I am really ashamed. I am awakened by His Highness, and I am really ashamed of Your Majesty's grace!"

For Jian Yi, Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately trained him.

In history, the Ministry of Officials said that he should be promoted after three years of office, and Zhu Yuanzhang was specially ordered to be promoted after nine years, saying: "I will use righteousness."

Therefore, Jian Yi served the emperor day and night, and handed over all confidential texts to him.Jian Yi was careful and cautious, and never offended the emperor.

After Emperor Jianwen came to the throne, speculating on Zhu Yuanzhang's intention, he promoted Jian Yi to be the right servant of the Ministry of Officials, and awarded him Jiayi doctor.

At that time, Huang Zicheng was in charge of the country, the master was promoted outside the country, and the system was reformed internally. Jian Yi did not raise any opinions. Wang Shen, a doctor of Guozijian, wrote to question him. Jian Yi could not answer, but was full of bitterness.

Once he was untrustworthy in Jianwen, he was in the political fringes, so what can he do with admonitions?
So he was left by Zhu Yuanzhang to Zhu Yunqi, who was kind to him after he ascended the throne, and selected and appointed talents, yes, but Zhu Yunqi cannot be used...

From this, it can also be seen how much Zhu Yunwen disagrees with Zhu Yuanzhang in his heart!

Zhu Yunxie said: "Jian Yi, from now on you will work in Wenyuan Pavilion, organize books and memorials, so that you can be inquired about."

"Yes, thank you, Your Highness!"

After exiting the hall, Jian Yi had a comfortable smile on his face.

Your Majesty is perfect, His Highness appreciates it, such a great kindness, what more can I ask for...

Wenyuan Pavilion is located within the Meridian Gate, right in front of the Wenhua Hall in the East Palace, and next to the Eight Treasures House on the other side.

Taking up the post in Wenyuan Pavilion is to continue to assist the prince in handling government affairs!
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the news, he invited Zhu Yunxi to dinner again!

Of course, at the dinner table, a meal is indispensable.

"Wenyuan Pavilion is a good place, it is the closest to your Wenhua Palace, but if you let Jian Yi alone assist you with government affairs, then you are still too busy!
In fact, you can find a few more people, some things in the imperial court have successful examples, these government affairs are not troublesome, and it is not important, as long as you follow the established rules..."

"After we abolished the prime minister system back then, so many tasks were placed on us, and we couldn't take it anymore, but we are a little smarter than you and know how to get help.

But it's good for you, you take care of yourself, no wonder you complain so much all day long, it's no wonder you don't get tired with such a stupid way of doing it!You have to learn to let others share the tasks for you... Do you understand Chu Jun? "

Zhu Yunxi pretended to be suddenly enlightened and said, "Oh, so that's the case..."

Immediately afterwards, he began to complain: "Grandpa Huang, you are too unkind! My grandson has been busy for such a long time, why did you just say that!"

Of course Zhu Yunxi knew that he was tired, and of course he knew how to find someone to do things for him. Isn't the cabinet system of later generations just a ready-made example.

But the reason why I have carried it for so long is that I guess Zhu Yuanzhang is willing to see himself diligent!

He is a diligent emperor, and he will only be satisfied if he works harder, and he must know that this is not a long-term solution, and he will definitely relieve himself of some burdens in the future.

No, it's already here!

Alas, I have been tired for so long, it is not in vain!

"The reason why we don't talk about it is to see if you can figure it out by yourself. Who knows that you are an elm-headed person, but you just don't understand it. You are asking for guilt, and who can blame you!"

"Grandpa Huang, you are getting older and more cunning, and you are getting more and more proficient in defrauding your grandson. You still don't admit that you have been caught by your grandson. No matter what happens, you will have to drink three glasses of wine as a fine!"

"By the way, Grandpa Huang, the historian won't record what we said, will he?"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said: "Don't worry, what our grandfather and grandson said, why let outsiders be present! There is nothing to remember."

"Oh, then I'm relieved..."

"Look, this is not the emperor yet, he has started to pay attention to his words and deeds, not bad, not bad, just as smart as us!"

"..."

Can Zhu Yunxi not pay attention to these gags, colorful clothes to entertain relatives, including Zhu Yuanzhang's teasing himself, if they are written down and recorded in history books,

When the time comes to find out, it is definitely an unfilial grandson, and others will point to the history books and scold themselves,
Look, the emperor even looked down on Chujun, said that Chujun was not good, and often scolded him,
And the prince doesn't respect the emperor, and what he says is outrageous, it's in line with the destiny for us to raise troops...

Therefore, if it is obtained by some people with ulterior motives, this will become their reason and excuse for raising troops!
