Jingming

Chapter 61 The Undercurrent After the Great Court Meeting

Mao Cheng's eyes darkened.

Punishment!
Do so absolutely.

Send the reward to the mansion and ask him, who is already a grassroots person, to sign for it.

Not only did the emperor not kill those who were disloyal and disrespectful, but he also rewarded them for their achievements.

The anticipation and longing when he got the paperweight in the Xingwang's mansion were all wiped out.

Not only that, how could Mao Cheng, who has been struggling in the court for so many years, think that this is the final result?

He will never use it again. Even if the sons and nephews of the clan are talented, can the Mao family's children still pass the final hurdle of the county and college exams that are not well-known?
The wall has been pushed down by everyone, and those who have been dissatisfied with him for so many years, and those who covet his Mao family's property, what kind of excuses will they find to cater to them?

When the Son of Heaven kills someone, he can never, and never needs to be, stained with blood.

As a minister of the Ministry of Rites, Mao Cheng was ready to die from the moment he could not make concessions.

Scolding "faint king" is even asking for death.

If he died, Yang Tinghe would owe him forever, because he was admonishing him for loyalty, and his death would become a bargaining chip for Yang Tinghe to slowly regain the situation with Shilin public opinion.

For the sake of Yang Tinghe's reputation among scholars, he Yang Tinghe also had to try his best to keep the descendants of the Mao family and not let others feel chilled.

The emperor will definitely get what he wants, both Mao Cheng and Yang Tinghe know this.

After he gets it, if he still goes crazy, isn't it true what is a stupid king?If he doesn't go crazy, he won't get involved more; if he goes crazy, Mao Cheng will have his grievances resolved, and future generations will still have a chance.

But now, Yang Tinghe has saved his life!What else?

That emperor...isn't he a young man?Why is he not angry! ! !
In the eyes of Yang Tinghe and the emperor, Mao Cheng was always just a victim and a bargaining chip.

They are all used to gather the hearts and minds they need!

……

After three poles in the sun, the court meeting was over.

Liang Chu, Wang Qiong and others who escaped the catastrophe breathed a sigh of relief, and sincerely felt how precious a shrewd emperor was to them at this moment.

After the dynasty was dispersed, Yuan Zonggao, Yan Song, and Liu Long became the focus of many people's congratulations.

Yuan Zonggao had a happy face, Yan Song was very modest, and Liu Long was more restrained.

This is just a courtesy outside the Meridian Gate and between the Chengtian Gate. Everyone knows that today's meeting in the capital is full of discussions and undercurrents.

The new king's first court meeting, the Minister of Rites and many officials, a total of 21 courtiers were demoted to serve the people and never used!What kind of compromises are behind the fact that the crime of disrespect is no longer pursued?

Abolition of 12 extravagances, re-establishment of the three major camps, distribution of tens of millions of assets, Yang Tinghe's resignation of the position of the Sangong, the new Minister of Rites...

There are too many topics that require courtiers to exchange opinions and confirm the situation.

Business will be good in many places today!

As the new living commentator, Yan Songxian paid a special visit to his "mentor" Yang Tinghe.

He just put on a show, and after the politeness, he talked about the official business of the re-establishment of the living room.

In addition, the sutra banquet on the second day of next month also needs to be prepared: His Majesty also approved the matter that Wang Qiong led Jiuqing to play at the court meeting, and there are not many days left on the second day of May.

So in fact, he can be regarded as visiting the cabinet ministers together.

Everyone in Wenyuan Pavilion was very preoccupied. Although Yang Tinghe was trying his best, Yan Song could see that he was exhausted.

When leaving Wenyuan Pavilion, Yan Song took another look at Jiang Mian and Mao Ji.

Liang Chu had another gag today, but Jiang Mian and Mao Ji were extremely low-key today.

After returning to Jingzhong's home after finishing work, Yan Shifan, who just passed his birthday last month and was nine years old, looked at his relaxed and happy father and asked curiously: "Father, what is the happy event today?"

"Have you finished your homework for today?" Yan Song patted his son's head, looking at Yan Shifan who hurt one eye with pity in his heart, "Qing'er, don't give up on yourself just because you hurt your eye, dad will definitely find a way out for you in the future of!"

"...It's done." Yan Shifan was very smart, and he could hear something from the confidence in his father's words, "Could it be that Dad has been promoted?"

"No, but it's more important than being promoted." Yan Song laughed, "You don't understand even if you tell me, so dad will go out first, and he will test your homework when he comes back."

Yan Shifan felt that he knew a little bit.

The father who was obviously the second best in high school has been wasted until now. Yan Shifan, who has not lived a good life since he was a child and injured one eye, feels the vitality gushing out of his father.

I heard my father said that with my current dignity, it is difficult to pass the imperial examinations: at the final hurdle, judging people by their appearance exists.

Yan Shifan has already felt ridiculed by many friends of the same age, so he studies harder now.

is useful.Father said he was waiting, didn't he wait for the opportunity now?

Yan Song made a special trip home first to change into regular clothes and bring gifts to Yuan Zonggao's newly rewarded mansion to congratulate him.

Firstly, it was congratulations, and secondly, Yan Song thought about it, and it was absolutely impossible for him to be directly named as a living official by the emperor because of Yang Tinghe.

The biggest possibility is that Yuan Zonggao heard about his deeds in his hometown when he was appointed as the inspector in Jiangxi, and recommended himself to the emperor.

Although he was Yang Tinghe's disciple, he stayed away from the imperial court for many years, and stayed in the Imperial Academy to keep a low profile after returning, so he could not be regarded as Yang Tinghe's person.

I'm over forty, and I have enough ability, experience, and experience. I have been in the folk for a long time, and what I lack is opportunities.

This kind of experience is the reason why the emperor is so "simple in the emperor's heart", right?
Besides, although he, Yan Song, is a Zhuguan of daily life, his full name is Zhuguan of daily life.

He, Yan Song, was going to teach the emperor a lesson.

To pay a visit to Yuan Zonggao, the emperor's teacher, to ask His Majesty's previous academic situation, who can say anything?
……

At this moment in Jinyiwei and Dongchang, Luo An and Mai Fu are sitting in their respective seats.

Luo An sat in the position of commander, and Mai Fu sat next to Wei Lin.

In front of them were the captain of Jin Yiwei and the head of Dongchang.

"Outside Yang Tinghe's mansion, Hu Yan, a doctor of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, sent a letter of worship..."

"In the case of Bingke, Xia Yan has not returned to the mansion..."

"Wangyue Pavilion Gongsheng drank wildly and discussed the court meeting..."

"Sun's horse shop rented out 37 fast horses today, [-] horses to the south, and [-] to the west..."

We all know that today is a critical day. This is not only a matter of the new official taking office, but also a matter of the new king's ascension to the throne.

The movements in Beijing were collected here from every corner.

The daily reports of Jinyiwei and Dongchang are all summarized and refined from such news.Those that are not written into the report must also be archived.

Luo An is not used to such authority and pressure now, but he has to bite the bullet and hold on with bloodshot eyes.

And Mai Fu, who was training in the Yumajian controlled by Zhang Yong, also got another news from Dongchang.

It's up to them to do these chores.

Located on the northwest side of the Hall of Renzhi, which is now used as the Hall of Banquets, it is the palm of the supervisor of ceremonies.

Although Zhang Jin is a palm print eunuch, he dare not neglect Zhang Zuo at all.

"I've already sent someone to urge you." Bringing Zhang Zuo a good cup of tea, Zhang Jin said with a smile, "Brother Zuo, Wei Lin and the others have already gone out to work as soon as the court meeting is over."

Zhang Zuo nodded with some airs: "Your Majesty has a lot of worries after returning to Qianqing Palace. As slaves, we have to share your worries for His Majesty. We must find out how the courtiers are connected in such a big turmoil today!"

"Brother Zuo is right!" Zhang Jin said without a trace of majesty, "Your Majesty should drive back to Qianqing Palace from Jiyan Hall. Should Brother Zuo take the report that has been sent back to His Majesty first?"

"It's not enough. His Majesty will ask you if you want all the news about senior ministers like Yang Ge and Wang Tianguan." Zhang Zuo thought for a while and then ordered, "There is Renshou Palace!"

"Brother Zuo, don't worry! Over at Renshou Palace, Eunuch Wei and the others are watching! Yuan Jinsheng can't beat the waves!"

"Old Ancestor! Great Ancestor..." Another eunuch ran in, handing over a secret melody, "Old Yang Ge went to the Mao Mansion himself!"

Zhang Jin and Zhang Zuo suddenly changed their expressions and stood up.

Picking up the secret notes on the case table and the new one, he went out: "I'll report to His Majesty right away. Zhang Jin, I have news, and I'll ask someone to send it to Qianqing Palace at any time."

Although he was only a pen holder, he gave orders to the palm prints so naturally.

"That's natural, natural!" Zhang Jin also bent down and agreed.

After sending him out of the Rites Supervisor, Zhang Jin let out a long breath.

Quite aggrieved.

He was the first to announce the decree and welcome Li. After Wei Bin and others went, although he took the position of palm print, the eunuchs in the palace always only looked at the holy family.

On this point, who can compare to Zhang Zuo at present?

If you are wronged, just be wronged, it is much better than Zhang Zhong and the others who are suffering in the prison.
