Di Newspaper Division is now just a pure publicity organization.
Even if some idle people are recruited to collect materials, they are far from being upgraded to the level of a spy agency, and it is difficult to foresee whether they will be upgraded to a spy agency in the future.
More importantly, people of this era do not have the concept of Jinyiwei in their minds.
Therefore, even if the Di News Bureau becomes the intelligence agency of the imperial court, or even a spy agency, it will be difficult to develop to the level of Jin Yiwei in another world, and it is unlikely to have the independent judicial and even prison powers of Jin Yiwei. .
As Shen Yi said, it doesn't matter who the future head of Di Baosi will be, and what the yamen of Di Baosi will look like in the future, it doesn't matter what Shen Yi says, only what the emperor in the palace has to say.
Zhang Jian also agreed with Shen Yi's view. He picked up his wine glass and toasted Shen Yi, and said with a smile: "What Qilang said is true, but the errands given by my grandfather, I just came here to ask about it during the Chinese New Year. , My brother is going back to Jiankang to celebrate the New Year, so I will just tell him clearly in person."
Shen Yi raised his glass, clinked it with Zhang Jian, and said slowly: "Senior brother, tell the old prime minister that the Di News Department is not a confidential yamen now, but is already in charge of the palace. If it really becomes something extremely important in the future, Even if a palace official is not in charge of the Yamen, His Majesty's closest confidants must be in charge."
"Therefore, I feel that there is no room for fuss in the yamen of Di Newspaper Division."
Zhang Jian's grandfather Zhang Jing was the Prime Minister of Zhongshu Province.
Prime Minister Zhang's attitude, in a sense, represents the attitude of the civil officials in the court except Yang Jingzong's line.
Nowadays, the officials of Yang Jingzong's line have slowly shown signs of decline.
When Prime Minister Yang falls, the largest civil servant faction in the court will become Prime Minister Zhang and Ganquan Academy.
In other words, Prime Minister Zhang asked his grandson Zhang Jian to set up a line with Shen Yi, indicating that Prime Minister Zhang wanted to use the civil service group to put pressure on the emperor and control the Di News Agency.
In Zhang Xiang's view, Shen Yi happened to be the civil servant representative to control the Di Newspaper Division.
It is absolutely impossible for Shen Yi to participate in this idea.
At least now he couldn't get involved.
Because Shen Yi is not from Prime Minister Zhang's side, he is a pure "Ganquan sect". If he does this kind of thing, he will definitely need to communicate with Zhao Changping, Master Lu and others in advance.
Zhang Jian was both the direct grandson of Prime Minister Zhang and a disciple of Ganquan Academy. For a long time, he was the link between the first line of Zhang Xiang and the first line of Ganquan Academy.
Previously, these two factions were in a state of being "suppressed and beaten" by Yang Jingzong's faction. The two factions were able to unite relatively closely through Zhang Jian. Now, it is obvious to the naked eye that Yang Xiang's faction is about to decline. If this continues, it is still unknown whether Ganquan Academy can still be of the same mind as Zhang Tong in the days to come.
But no matter what, these upper-level matters are not something that Shen Yi or even Zhang Jian can participate in and determine the outcome.
Zhang Jian is a very smart person. After hearing Shen Yi's words, he also noticed some of Shen Yi's attitude, so he raised his glass and toasted Shen Yi, and said with a smile: "Qi Lang, why is Di Bao Si not Di Bao Si, for my brother's sake They don’t care at all. Just because you and I have met each other, no matter what those people above want to do, it will not affect the friendship between us brothers!"
After saying that, Zhang Jian raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
Shen Yi also raised his head and drank the glass of wine. After he finished the glass of wine, he lowered his head and thought about it, and then said to Zhang Jian: "Senior brother, in terms of vision and knowledge in the court, I am definitely far inferior to you. It’s not as good as Zhang Xiang’s, but because I am an outsider, I wrote a lot of newspapers during this period and figured out some flavor.”
Shen Qi said slowly: "This year has already been the sixth year of Hongde, and it will be the seventh year of Hongde soon."
"Based on His Majesty's accession to the throne, he has been suppressed by Prime Minister Yang for seven years."
Shen Yi looked at Zhang Jian and whispered: "Senior brother, you can put yourself in that position and have been suppressed by a powerful minister for seven years. You finally took charge of the government and brought down this powerful minister. Do you want a second one to appear? A powerful minister?"
"One Sword Dominates"
Zhang Jian looked serious and shook his head slowly.
"so."
Shen Yi said: "So after Prime Minister Yang, others can eat enough, but they cannot eat too much, let alone argue with His Majesty. You must know that what Yang Prime Minister faced last year was a ten-year-old Your Majesty, if anyone wants to do what Yang Xiang did years ago, he will be facing Your Majesty who is already an adult and is in charge."
At this point, Shen Yi sighed and said: "Brother, for this reason, maybe I thought too much, or maybe I said something I shouldn't have said, but since I said it, you listen As soon as I heard it..."
Zhang Jian sighed at Shen Yi, and he whispered: "The resignation of Prime Minister Yang should be next spring. With Prime Minister Yang resigning, there will definitely be many more "holes" in the court. These pitfalls will Not only the people under my grandfather want to occupy the seat, but our academy also wants to occupy it. Even if we don't occupy it, it will be occupied by others."
Shen Yi smiled: "Brother, of course you have to take advantage of the benefits that should be taken. However, the food appearance should be more beautiful and low-key, so that His Majesty cannot think that after Prime Minister Yang, there will be another Prime Minister Yang."
"Yes."
Zhang Jian slowly exhaled a breath, he closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and then said: "Grandpa is still hesitating whether to resign together with Yang Xiang next year. After listening to Qilang's words, I will return to Jiantian at the end of the year." Kang Haohao persuaded him to leave Zhongshu with Yang Xiang next year."
"At this time, retreating is advancing."
Zhang Jian is twenty-four years old, about eight years older than Shen Yi.
Both of them are not very old, but what these two young people talked about while drinking in private can already be called earth-shattering.
If Zhang Jian can really influence Prime Minister Zhang's behavior, then the conversation between the two brothers tonight has even affected state affairs and even the government situation in the future to a certain extent!
After the brothers drank for half the night, Zhang Jian raised his glass and clinked it with Shen Yi again, already speaking a little loudly.
"Qi...Qilang, will you take the Chunwei exam next year?"
"Test."
At this moment, Shen Yi was also a little confused, but he still gave a very firm answer.
This is also the result of his careful consideration these days.
A slow step leads to a slow step. Although according to the so-called "accumulation and accumulation" concept of this era, Shen Yi waits for another four years to get a good rank, which may be more beneficial to his future life, but Shen Yi cannot clearly see what will happen to him in four years. What the bureau will look like.
Four years is too long. After four years, no one will remember everything he has done in Jiankang, and they will have to start from scratch.
Therefore, Shen Yi must participate in next year's Spring Festival.
Even if he wins the third place and is awarded the Jinshi title, he will choose to become an official.
Shen Yi is confident that he can use his own abilities to smooth over his shortcomings in the examination room.
Of course, it would be great to be able to win first and second place.
However, if he fails to win next spring, Shen Yi will have to wait four years even if he doesn't want to wait four years.
"good!"
Zhang Xian clapped his hands respectfully and spoke with a hint of drunkenness.
"Shichiro rises to the challenge, which can be regarded as a word of courage!"
