My Brother-in-law is the Prince

  Chapter 337 Get promoted and get rich

  The scene was deadlocked like this.

  Everyone looked at the prince, and then at Chen Jin.

  At this time...a magical scene appeared.

  Chen Jin suddenly whispered: "Aiyo, aiyo..."

  His body began to tilt slowly, and then he clutched his waist and slowly lay down on the ground, still making the sound of "Ouch... Ouch...".

  Zhu Gaochi: "..."

  Before coming, Zhu Gaochi was prepared, and there must be Hanlin who refused to go in every possible way.

  But... what he didn't expect was that these people looked so clumsy.

  He even thought that a thorn in the side of Chen Jin, who usually speaks in a subtle way and speaks righteously, will definitely lose face and simply go to any acquaintance.

   But obviously... he was wrong, and he was wrong.

  Chen Jin fell to the ground and said: "Old disease... recurred again... Your Highness... Your Highness... Oops... Oops..."

  Zhu Gaochi took a deep breath. He felt a deep disappointment. He thought... the world in the future could rely on these people.

  But now it seems...

  Take advantage and avoid disadvantage!

   What a good way to avoid disadvantages!

  Zhu Gaochi's eyes sank, and he stared at Chen Jin firmly.

  Chen Jin was so embarrassed that he wanted to get into the cracks in the ground.

  But he had no choice, if he went to serve as the magistrate, half his life's future might be lost, and it might even harm his family.

  You can die in the Hanlin Academy, but you have a noble body, a worry-free future, and you don't need to bear any responsibilities.

  He had no choice but to choose. Even though he knew that his performance was clumsy, he still had to bite the bullet and continue acting.

  Zhu Gaochi sullenly said with a sneer, "The Qing family's illness seems serious."

  Zhu Gaochi said, flicking his sleeves: "Since Chen Qing's family is ill, someone must be willing to volunteer to share the worries of the palace."

   But everyone remained silent.

  The risk is too great.

  Think about it, even Jian Yi is there!

  What happened to Mr. Jian?

  When Zhu Gaochi saw this, he followed Yang Pu's strategy and came here to give the Imperial Academy and the Yushi a blow.

   But a strategy is a strategy, but when I was actually there, I felt chilling.

  I don't want to look at the faces of these people anymore, so I just brushed my sleeves, turned around and left.

   Zhu Gaochi left like this, but this place is still surprisingly quiet, with a kind of unconcealable embarrassment spreading.

  Chen Jin got up disheveledly, wanting to say something to cover up his politeness, but found that it was meaningless to say anything at this moment.

  At the moment...it was deathly silence again.

  ...

   "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince...has gone to the Imperial Academy and wants to invite..."

  Zhu Di's face sank when he heard this.

  His plan was to get the prince to endorse the Taiping Mansion, but the prince turned around and went to the Imperial Academy.

   Could it be that they want to recruit those Hanlin to serve as magistrates and magistrates?

   As a son, is he going to fight against my father, the emperor?

  This confused son, does he really want to follow the example of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, and he also wants to say, "He who messes with my family is also the prince!" "Emotional?

  So he said with a cold face: "What are you going to do in the Imperial Academy?"

  Yi Shiha smiled and said: "This is the memorial that was sent just now, please have a look at it, Your Majesty."

  After Zhu Di listened, he took the memorabilia, looked at it with a very unhappy expression, and then his eyes showed some doubts.

   While going to the Hanlin Academy.

  But in this memorial, the officials of each prefecture and county have been properly arranged.

   Obviously, the candidate has been basically finalized before going to the Hanlin Academy.

  The appointment and removal of more than a hundred officials is clear and clear.

At the end of this memorandum, it is also said: The magistrates of various prefectures and counties often come from Taiping Mansion, but the prefectures and counties where the magistrates go are mixed with fish and dragons. My ministers are afraid that the magistrates will not be able to contain the place. It should also be governed by the Duke of Wei, so that it can go smoothly. My son heard that if the name is not right, the words will not go smoothly, and if the words are not smooth, things will fail. Wei Guogong is the governor of the Taiping Prefecture. It's really inappropriate, so I implore my father and emperor to give it a name, to rectify its name, and to reassure everyone.

After Zhu Di saw it, he suddenly became enlightened, and he couldn't help laughing: "Zhu Gaochi is still superior in skills. This is better than me as an old man. I only know how to use strength, and he also knows how to punish the heart. Emperor Xuan once taught his prince a lesson, saying: "The Han family has its own system, which is based on the overlord's way, but how can it be purely taught by virtue and use Zhou Zheng!" , yes, he has grown."

Yi Shiha listened, and laughed and said: "Your Majesty, you can't say that. Your Majesty, you are the master of the country. You have the constitution of heaven in your mouth, and follow the law in your words. Naturally, you have to obey the will. And His Royal Highness is only the crown prince after all. , It is natural to pay attention to methods when doing things.”

   "That's the truth." Zhu Di was obviously in a good mood at this time: "You have also grown up, it's just..."

  He tapped on the copy, thought for a while and said, "Send this memorial to Wenyuan Pavilion."

  Yi Shiha said strangely: "This... His Majesty still needs to wait for the scholars of Wenyuan Pavilion to give advice?"

  Zhu Di just said: "They have read this book, and they have their own opinions."

  Yi Shiha stopped talking in moderation, just nodded and said: "Yes."

  So Yi Shiha took the memorial and went to Wenyuan Pavilion in person.

  In the Wenyuan Pavilion, the three Wenyuan Pavilion Grand Scholars received the order. Hearing that His Highness the Crown Prince's memo had been delivered, they dared not neglect it.

  General ministers' memorials often need to be drafted through Wenyuan Pavilion.

   However, the situation is obviously different with the prince.

  The son of a family is giving advice to his father, how can it be the minister's turn to give advice?

  Because of this, His Majesty asked someone to send the prince's memorial, obviously, not to ask for opinions.

  Yang Rong only read the memorabilia, so he knew that this was an exam.

  At that moment, the three bachelors sat down together, and Yang Rong first said: "Your Majesty wants to ask, I'm afraid it's the last sentence. If the name is not correct, the words will not go well, and if the words don't go well, nothing will happen."

  Hu Guang frowned, his complexion is very ugly recently, everyone is scolding him!

   Zhang Anshi was the one who forced him to death, but Yang Rong fanned the flames, why was he the one who got scolded?

  He didn't understand and felt aggrieved.

   Finally came to a conclusion, the human heart is really scary.

"It's just... In my Ming Dynasty, there was never a rule of setting up a chief envoy above Zhili. Zhili has a lot to do with it, and it is only divided into various prefectures. After all, it is under the feet of the emperor. If it is above Zhili, then a chief envoy will be set up." , I'm afraid it's inappropriate."

  Hu Guang expressed his opinion.

  Yeah, it’s not appropriate, isn’t this breaking the rules of the ancestors?

  Although the law of the ancestors is like a bus, everyone can get on it if they want, but they can’t come clearly! Even if it's a cover-up, you have to carry someone behind your back.

  Yang Rong smiled and said: "Yeah, it's really not appropriate."

   As he spoke, Yang Rong looked at Jin Youzi.

Jin Youzi murmured: "Once it is set up, I am afraid that it will be a disaster in the future. The emperor's feet are extraordinary, how can his family be the only one? Once this is done, it will be tantamount to letting the powerful officials be arbitrary, and the majesty of the court may also be in jeopardy gone."

  Yang Rong laughed again: "Well...so...what should I do?"

  Hu Guangdao: "Mr. Yang, don't ask us, I know you have an idea in mind."

   "Who says I have an idea?" Yang Rong said plainly, "Isn't this wronging you?"

  Hu Guangdao: "Will I not know..."

  Jin Youzi only smiled. After all, he is relatively junior, so it is not appropriate to say much at this time.

  Yang Rong sighed: "Actually, there is no solution..."

  Hu Guangdao: "But it doesn't matter what you say, don't pretend you don't know."

  Hearing Hu Guang's words, Yang Rong was a little bit dumbfounded, and then said: "Your Majesty and His Royal Highness obviously want to be just and righteous. This is what His Majesty and His Royal Highness want. Then... as a courtier, we must obey."

"Emperor Gao, the great ancestor, did not intend to set up a political envoy in Zhili. It is not difficult to understand that Zhili occupies 20% of the world's tax revenue, more than 10% of the population, and a vast land. It is also a rich place in the world. What's more, it is in the capital, if we do not divide and rule, whoever controls Zhili will inevitably cause hidden dangers."

After a pause, he went on to say: "This is nothing more than... or the word check and balance. As long as the bowl of water is leveled, Emperor Gaozu Gao is still alive, I am afraid that he will follow the good example. How about this, right now... just take Nanzhili , divided into two. The Taiping Mansion, Fengyang Mansion, Huai’an Mansion, Anqing Mansion, Chizhou Mansion and other mansions are listed as one road; then Yingtian Mansion, Suzhou Mansion, Zhenjiang Mansion, Songjiang Mansion, and Suzhou Mansion are listed as one road.”

"In this way, the governor's mansion of Zhili will be established, divided into the left governor and the right governor. The left governor will govern Yingtian, Suzhou and other prefectures, and the right governor will govern Fengyang and Huai'an prefectures. How? At the same time, he only governs one part of Southern Zhili, and the other part, and the court will appoint ministers to divide and rule, so the court can have no worries."

  As soon as this remark came out, Hu Guangshen nodded approvingly, and said: "It seems that this is the only way to stop the people of the world from talking. This is indeed a good way.

   As he said that, he gave Yang Rong a special look and said, "Mr. Yang, you've got along well."

  Yang Rong immediately put on a straight face: "This is not mixing mud, this is adapting measures to local conditions and time!"

  Hu Guang did not argue, but nodded and said: "Yes, yes, you are right. If that is the case, then invite Yang Gong to draw up the votes."

  Yang Rong shook his head and said: "If His Majesty just needs my advice, why do you need someone to send this memorial?"

  Hu Guang was startled: "Then..."

  Hu Guang looked at him with piercing eyes, waiting for his next words.

  Yang Rong said calmly: "Your Majesty's intention is to ask the three of us to ask Your Majesty to set up the Dudu Mansion after reading the memorial."

  Hu Guang was taken aback again.

  Yang Rong took a deep look at Hu Guang, and then said: "If not, why would Your Majesty bother?"

  Hu Guang's face turned red and then pale, and he was a little unhappy at this time.

   It is clear that this is the mind of His Majesty and the Crown Prince, but let the cabinet ministers come to petition. Doesn't this mean that the ministers of Wenyuan Pavilion asked for this matter, and His Majesty just accepted this request?

  If the matter of daring to love arouses controversy, will the Minister of Wenyuan Pavilion still take the blame?

  Yang Rong said: "It's not too late, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time."

  Hu Guang still hesitated, and said: "This..."

   "The three of us need to play together."

  Hu Guang had no choice but to say quietly: "Okay, the three of us will play together."

   Hearing that the three of them were together, Hu Guang was also relieved. He was afraid that Yang Rong would use him as a scapegoat.

  At that moment, the three of them made an imperial edict and asked the **** to send it to Da Nei.

  After the matter was settled, Hu Guang shook his head, went secretly to look for Yang Rong, and said, "Mr. Yang...I'm afraid I will be scolded again this time."

  Yang Rong smiled and said: "I am not afraid."

   "Of course you are not afraid. When the world scolds you, you will know what it feels like." Hu Guang said full of resentment.

  Yang Rongdao: "Don't worry, I can assure you that no one in the world will scold me."

   "What?" Hu Guangdao: "We let Zhang Anshi be promoted at the risk of the world, and those scholars still don't..."

  Yang Rong said bluntly: "They only scold you?"

   "Ah... this..." Hu Guang was speechless: "It was played by the three of us jointly. The memorial is clear and clear."

"Hey." Yang Rong shook his head and said, "After all, you still haven't guessed people's minds! Hu Gong, your brain is not bad. I remember that you took the second place in the Jiangxi provincial examination, the high school Juren. In Jianwen Er In 2010, you were even more lucky, and you won the first place in the palace examination in the second year of Jianwen high school. You are so good at reading, and you have been an official for so many years, why haven't you guessed people's hearts? What are you thinking about every day?"

   Hu Guang was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer.

Seeing that he was still in a daze, Yang Rong said patiently: "Think about it, the three of us are joint names, not to mention Jin Gong, he is new here, and everyone thinks that he has low qualifications. This memorial is definitely not his idea. , isn't it? In Wenyuan Pavilion, there are quite senior people, you and I, and I, Yang... usually, I am in the scholarly circle, and I don't have a good reputation. Of course, it's not too bad Its reputation can be described as lackluster.”

"But you, Mr. Hu, are different. Ever since Mr. Jie went to Java, scholars and gentry in the world have pinned their hopes on you. After all, you are the number one scholar, and you are from the same town and classmate as Mr. Jie... In their minds, you are the second Xiegong, and when this memorial comes out, who do you think everyone is talking about? Who is scolding?"

  Hu Guang: "..."

Yang Rong patted him on the shoulder and said: "So, people must never ask for fame. People in the world are the most easily burdened by fame. When you appear in the image of a gentleman, then in the hearts of the world, you will be ashamed." Judge you with the requirements of a gentleman, but as long as you disappoint a little, it will immediately trigger countless discussions, and at that time, it will be the time when your reputation will be ruined."

  Hu Guang: "..."

  Yang Rong comforted him: "Of course, Mr. Hu, don't panic. It's okay. It's up to others to laugh and scold. You'll get used to it gradually."

  Hu Guang was about to cry, but hearing Yang Rong's comfort, he was a little bit heartbroken.

At this time, Yang Rong continued: "In my opinion, the most important thing for you is not to think about others scolding you, but to focus on... your hometown in Jishui. You should write a letter to your uncles and elders in your family." , Teach them to cheer up and take good care of your Hu family's ancestral grave."

   "What?" Hu Guang wanted to jump up.

Yang Rong said: "Just in case, I think... no one would dare to do this. But, some things are unpredictable. After all... what Zhang Anshi did is no different from digging someone's ancestral grave. People can't come to the capital Find Zhang Anshi to settle accounts, but you always need to find a place to vent your anger, right?"

  Hu Guang trembled.

  Yang Rong patted him on the shoulder again, and said in relief: "But I just want to remind you, this is called being prepared and not prepared, so don't worry."'

   But he is obviously more worried now!

  Hu Guangqi said: "Why do all the dirty things end up on me?"

   "Because you are the second Xie Jin." Yang Rong smiled and said: "Because you are a gentleman, you are a well-known honest man in the court."

   Hu Guang gritted his teeth and said, "I...I..."

   It's just that Yang Rong has left with his hands behind his back.

  But after a while, Yang Rong went and came back, and said with a wry smile: "I forgot, this is my public house, okay, Mr. Hu...I have something to do, you..."

  Hu Guang said with a bitter face: "I shouldn't be on this memorial...I...hey...I'm an official, and I should be Guangzong Yaozu. How did I become a street rat?"

  Yang Rongdao: "When a man is alive, he only needs to explain to himself, and don't care about gossip. If it is something that is really beneficial to the world, do it with all your heart. If it is something you think you shouldn't do, even if you die, you must not cross the threshold."

"Hu Gong, you don't have to think about these things. You just need to think about whether the things you play are beneficial to the world. Why do you care about people's words? Actually... I think about it, it seems that it's not because you are not enough. You are so smart that you are in such a situation. In the final analysis, it is because you want everything. If you want everything alone, you will often ask for everything but not get it. You have to learn how to give up. There are things in the world Well worth it."

  Hu Guang sighed: "I know more about such a principle than you, but..."

"It's just that the theory is easy, but it's harder than climbing to the sky, isn't it?" Yang Rong smiled and said, "So, this is your Hu Gong's weakness, and you are finally at the bottom. Okay. , well, hurry up and get busy with your work, you can’t always be here, teach me to comfort you.”

  Hu Guang looked at him sadly, and said, "Hey..."

   Shaking his head and sighing again, he still didn't intend to leave.

  ...

  Zhu Di received the memorial, as if he had known for a long time that the ministers of Wenyuan Pavilion would attend the memorial.

  However, he was still a little dissatisfied with this playing, and he frowned and snorted coldly.

  Yi Shiha saw his reaction, so he said with concern: "Your Majesty, is there something else on your mind?"

  Zhu Di said: "The bachelors of Wenyuan Pavilion are still afraid that someone will judge them right and wrong. After all, they still can't get rid of the four words of fame and reputation."

  Yi Shiha said: "Where does this... start?"

Zhu Di said: "My intentions have already been communicated to them, and their memorials are still in line with my wishes. It's just that...they are still twitchy, and after all, they still cherish feathers. The matter of the left and right governors is prudent. Only Zhang Anshi is the governor of the right, and his jurisdiction is Taiping Mansion, Fengyang, Huai'an, Anqing, and Chizhou Mansions."

"But the governor of Zuo...has governed the most populous and prosperous prefectures of Yingtian, Suzhou, Zhenjiang, and Songjiang in Nanzhili for hundreds of years. If I remember correctly, before Zhang Anshi was appointed as the magistrate of Taiping Prefecture, Zuo The prefectures under the governor's jurisdiction account for more than 70% to 80% of the entire Zhili, whether in terms of population or money. As for the prefectures of Taiping and Fengyang...they are far behind."

  The ancients respected the left, and Zhang Anshi, the right governor, was clearly shorter than the left governor.

   This obviously... also means balance.

  Zhu Di seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

  So Yi Shiha said: "I think they also have difficulties...Your Majesty, after all, they are scholars, and it is not easy to do this."

  Zhu Di nodded: "Thinking about it, it must be Hu Qing's idea. This guy...has always been slick, and he and Xie Jin have been friends with each other since the beginning."

  Yi Shiha smiled and said: "How about, Your Majesty warns you one or two..."

  Zhu Di waved his hand: "No need."

  Yi Shiha listened and nodded quickly.

  Zhu Di said again: "Tomorrow...the court will push the left and right governors, the left and right governors, I mean...but above the chief envoy, they should be the second rank."

  The situation of the chief envoy is very special, because in the early Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu Gao designated the chief envoy as the second rank, but later, it seemed that the rank was too high, so in the fourteenth year of Hongwu, he was designated as the third rank.

  But because the grade was too low, it was designated as the second grade in the 22nd year of Hongwu.

   When Emperor Jianwen succeeded to the throne, Emperor Jianwen changed the ancestral system without authorization, so he designated the chief minister as the second grade.

  Then, Zhu Di launched an army to conquer the world, reprimanded Emperor Jianwen for changing the ancestral system without authorization, and then appointed the chief executive as the second rank.

   But since it is necessary to make it appear that the governor is different from the chief envoy, it is obviously reasonable to designate it as the second grade.

   It is tantamount to treating this governor as the chief official of the border.

  Of course, Zhu Di obviously did not consider tampering with the ancestral system. After all, during the period of Emperor Taizu Gao, there was no governor of the border.

  …

  Taiping government office.

  Zhang Anshi has summoned a group of officials to meet with him.

  The officials from top to bottom came excitedly one by one, listening to Zhang Anshi yelling at them.

  The thing is like this, the collection of summer grain this time can be said to be a great achievement.

  It’s just Li Zhaomo’s Zhaomo Institute, and he still found many problems from it.

  From the grain station to the county, and then to the mansion, some accounts were not reconciled.

  Besides this, there are some places where the rights and responsibilities are unclear. Of course, there are still many problems, which are caused by the confusion caused by the lack of plans before.

  Although they were all small mistakes, Zhang Anshi yelled at him with the report from Zhaomo Institute.

   He also pulled out the county magistrate of Xuancheng County, pointed at his nose and sprayed a full half of incense.

  Although they were scolded bloody, everyone was in a surprisingly happy mood.

  Although the scolded person tried his best to look sad, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, upwards.

  That's right, because...if nothing happens, maybe...they will be promoted again.

  Although no actual appointment has been made yet, fools can see clearly that at least this Taiping Prefecture will transfer more than 200 officials to be promoted to official positions in other prefectures and counties.

   As for the interior of Taiping Mansion, I am afraid that there will be another mobilization.

  So, on this side, Zhang Anshi spit all over the place.

   On the other side, everyone tried hard to keep their faces sullen. Although they looked very serious, they couldn't hide an emotion in their hearts...Happy!
