Words like a fantasy came out of the mouth of Zhang Ergong, the first Qingpao Qingpao official in the history of the Ming Dynasty who was a craftsman.
Yuan Sutai, who was wearing a first-grade crane red robe, felt that this would be just around the corner.
Sometimes Yuan Sutai would be envious of craftsmen like Zhang Ergong. They did not need to know about the disputes in the court, and they did not need to care about who was missing in the court today and who was added tomorrow.
Although he is not an official of the Six Divisions, Five Temples and Three Dharma Divisions, he is now the third-rank supervisor of Shanglin Garden, and since he became the first-rank young master, there has never been a day when he did not receive several invitations from the court.
Supervisor Shanglinyuan wanted to stay out of the matter, but how could he really sit back and watch the changes in the court.
Yesterday, His Majesty just gave an oral instruction to Ren Hengtai, the Minister of Rites, and that night officials from the DPRK and the Central Government came to pay their respects and inquire.
The Ministry of Rites has entered the Wenyuan Pavilion. Will he, a young master from the first rank, take a further step?
In addition to inquiries, an exquisite local specialty product was also delivered.
Yuan Sutai turned them away as always, and all the so-called specialties were returned.
I just want to have a good time farming.
Yuan Sutai looked at Zhang Ergong, whose hands were covered with calluses, and couldn't hide the envy in his eyes.
"Jian Zheng, we have arrived at Huagai Hall."
The deputy superintendent of Shanglinyuan Prison was following Yuan Sutai and reminded him in a low voice.
It's just that the deputy superintendent's eyes never looked towards the main hall, but towards the front of the officials.
Yuan Sutai looked over and saw that Yu Xin and Wang Jun had stopped and were looking back at him.
The two ministers stopped, and the officials behind them did not dare to move forward and stopped one after another.
Yuan Sutai felt a little helpless, but he could only move to the front.
Yu Xin and Wang Jun both handed over their hands at the same time: "Master Yuan is well."
"Yu Butang, Wang Butang." Yuan Sutai responded with a steady hand, raising his head and looking at the Huagai Hall in front of him: "I think His Majesty and the Crown Prince will be arriving soon, so I'd better enter the palace earlier."
Yu Xin glanced sideways at Wang Jun.
Wang Jun's face was full of smiles: "If Master Yuan doesn't come, they won't dare to enter the palace. Please ask Master Yuan to go first."
Wang Jun pointed to the officials around him and then stepped aside to make way.
With an implicit smile on his face, Yuan Sutai just glanced at Wang Jun and Yu Xin, who was silent at the side. Then, he turned around and faced Zhang Ergong and others who were watching from behind.
"Master Craftsman, please enter the palace with me."
Zhang Ergong rarely went to court. He spent almost all his time going back and forth between the Taiping Mansion Mine, Yingtian City, and the cement road leading to Hangzhou Mansion.
What are the rules in the court? For Zhang Ergong, the emperor's rules are the biggest.
Seeing Yuan Sutai waving to him, Zhang Ergong smiled, as if he didn't notice the slightly changed expressions of the two ministers standing next to Yuan Shaoshi.
Zhang Ergong bowed and trotted up to Yuan Sutai: "The supervisor invites you first."
With a smile on his face, Yuan Sutai stretched out his hand to hold Zhang Ergong's wrist: "We are all working for His Majesty. There is no order of precedence. We go together and go together."
Zhang Ergong laughed.
After the two people, a group of Shanglinyuan supervisory officials and craftsmen officials followed closely.
When everyone passed by Yu Xin and Wang Jun and entered the Huagai Hall, the two couldn't help but look at each other deeply.
Yu Xin looked at the officials in front of the palace and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, please enter the palace."
The two of them picked up their feet.
Wang Jun folded his hands and whispered: "He has made up his mind not to participate in court affairs."
"Young Master, from the third rank of Shanglin Yuanjian, he has the confidence not to participate."
Yu Xin also responded in a low voice, but his eyes were a little cold.
The two of them couldn't help sighing, and looked at the other end of the crowd. It was Ru Ru, the Minister of the Ministry of War, leading the same few officials from the Ministry of War to the gate of Huagai Palace.
He seemed to feel the gazes of Yu Xin and Wang Jun.
Before stepping into the Huagai Hall, Ru Yu quietly turned her head to look at the two of them, her face expressionless, her eyes as calm as a mountain stream.
Looking at the Minister of War entering the Huagai Hall.
Wang Jun's eyes narrowed: "The Ministry of War has not been affected for several years. This time, in accordance with His Majesty's decree, the Governor's Mansion, the Wuying Hall, and the Wenyuan Pavilion will be reestablished. I am afraid that the Ministry of War's powers and responsibilities will be reduced. What’s the score?”
Yu Xin put his hands in his sleeves, revealing only the wat board used when going to court, and said softly: "Let's wait for today's court meeting to see how your majesty arranges the current court."
When everyone entered the Huagai Hall, they saw Ren Hengtai, Xie Jin, and Gao Yangzhi standing in front of the throne in the hall.
Yuan Sutai stepped forward with his hands raised: "Ren Ge Lao, Xie Ge Lao, Gao Ge Lao."
Zhang Ergong followed Yuan Sutai into the palace. Seeing Yuan Jianzheng's demeanor, he followed behind and learned to greet Ren Hengtai and the others.
With a smile on his face, Ren Hengtai stood tall with his hands down. Xie Jin waved his sleeves and said, "Young master is very polite. I am just here to handle the state affairs memorial in Wenyuan Pavilion. The young master has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty. He has done a lot of work." This is something that satisfies the people of the world. Now in this court, no one can say thank you to Young Master. Zhang Jiangguan has repeatedly added artifacts to the court, so Zhang Jiangguan is also my imperial artifact."
As he spoke, Xie Jin glanced at Ren Hengtai, who was half a body ahead of him.
Ren Hengtai took over the words softly: "Today's court meeting is not as good as the big court meeting, but we still have to follow the rules. Young Master should be the leader."
After saying that, Ren Hengtai quickly and neatly led Xie Jin and others to give up their positions, and turned around behind Yuan Sutai.
Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Yuan Sutai could only settle down and stand at the front of the civil service train holding the wat board.
Later, when the civil servants entered the palace one after another, there were also the meritorious military generals in Beijing who came in groups with laughter and laughter. After entering the palace, this group of people held their heads high and looked sideways at the few civil servants left. Although they were silent, the expressions in their eyes were naked and undisguised.
At the forefront of the meritorious generals is Xu Yungong (Xu Huizu, whose name has never been changed to this day), the direct eldest son of the Prince of Zhongshan and the current Duke of Wei.
Accompanying Xu Yungong were Chang Sen and Tang Li. From then on, military generals who had contributed to the founding of the Ming Dynasty, such as Zhu Shou, Marquis of Shunfang, Bo He Rong of Dongguan, Bo Sangjing of Huixian, etc., gathered together. The number of people alone firmly overwhelmed the civil servants. One end.
The emperor has not yet arrived, and neither the prince nor the emperor's grandson has arrived.
In the main hall, there were only a few servants waiting in the corner to maintain the majesty of the royal family.
Today there is no need for supervisory censors to correct mistakes. After the officials arrived, they found their own positions and stood still. Everyone was silently waiting for the arrival of the monarch.
Because the begging skeletons of hundreds of Beijing officials were granted permission, the train of civil servants in the court now seemed a little tighter.
Wang Xinling, the governor of the General Affairs Department, who was wearing a green robe, was holding a wat board and looking down at the uppers of his boots, waiting to see if he should brush them when he went home from work today.
In front of his eyes, a white meat bun appeared.
Looking up, it was Senior Xiaobai's smiling face.
"Today's court meeting will definitely be long. Let's take some rest first. You don't have to go back to the Yamen until the next court meeting. Come with me to Nancheng and take you to a place where the craftsmanship is good for a drink."
Wang Xinling raised his head nervously and looked around, fearing that others would notice their small movements.
Bai Yuxiu seemed to have become accustomed to it. She put the meat bun into Wang Xinling's hand with a chuckle and turned around again.
Wang Xinling quickly stuffed the meat buns into his sleeves and was about to speak.
On the steps in front, Sun Gou'er, the general manager of the twenty-four yamen of the inner palace, appeared in the sight of the officials with a slight cough.
"Your Majesty has a will."
When the officials heard this, they immediately knelt down and worshiped.
Sun Gou'er continued: "I am ill. The discussion in the court today will be carried out by the crown prince. He will be given a seat in front of the emperor. The prince can decide all the affairs of the court."
As Sun Gou'er finished conveying the emperor's oral instructions, a young chamberlain moved a chair and placed it directly in front of the royal table on the steps. However, this did not stop. On the left hand side of the chair, another soft round stool was placed.
Then, as the officials stood up, Zhu Biao and Zhu Yunxi, father and son, stepped onto the stage lightly in front of everyone.
"I will see His Highness the Crown Prince."
"See His Highness Taisun."
The civil and military officials who had just stood up once again knelt on the ground holding the wat board.
Zhu Biao stepped forward lightly, sat down on the chair, gently turned the ring on his hand, and looked calmly at the court in front of him: "Everyone, please get up."
The prince's voice was hollow and powerful, echoing in the hall.
The officials pulled up their robes and stood up making noises.
At this point, Zhu Yunxi came forward and sat down on the round stool.
Zhu Biao looked down at the court, calmed down for a while, and then chuckled: "Actually, to tell you, your Majesty is not well today. He just felt that there was nothing important in the court, so he called me to discuss it with you. Let’s discuss those state affairs. It’s also a good idea for the grandson to watch and learn from the sidelines for the future.”
In the military commander's train, there were a few low laughs that were obviously forced to hold back.
The civil servants looked tense.
There are currently nine out of ten officials in the imperial court. Yesterday the emperor even issued five imperial edicts in a row. Can this be said to mean that there are no major events in the imperial court?
However, the more the attitude in the palace became like this, the more nervous the civil servants who were still standing in the Huagai Hall became more and more nervous.
No one who can stay now wants to follow in the footsteps of those idiots.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Zhu Biao raised his voice and said, "There is one more thing that I want to talk to you about right now."
When he said this, both civil and military officials bowed.
"On the same day, a memorial on state affairs was sent to Wenyuan Pavilion for drafting, and then entered the palace. All matters related to the country are drafted by Ren Hengtai, Jie Jin, and Gao Yangzhi."
"All military and state matters are drafted by Xu Yungong, Lan Yu, and Mu Ying. Three of them were promoted to Grand Scholars of Wuyingdian Palace and appointed to the Wenyuan Pavilion. Duke Tang He and Founding Duke Chang were promoted to Grand Bachelors of Wuyingdian Palace."
"After today, the palace's decree will be made clear to the court."
This is the final disposition of matters such as the restoration of the Metropolitan Governor's Office in yesterday's emperor's five decrees.
In the Huagai Hall, all civil and military officials raised their voices to accept the order.
All the officials also fully understood that from today onwards, the real elders in the Ming Dynasty were the six civil and military men who were appointed to Wenyuan Pavilion.
Ren Hengtai and Xie Jin were speculated by everyone, and Duke Xu Yungong of Wei was also within reason.
However, Gao Yangzhi, who had just arrived in Beijing to report on his duties, had already joined Wenyuan Pavilion at a young age, which made everyone feel mixed feelings for a while.
As for Liang Guogong Lan Yu and Xiping Hou Muying, entering Wenyuan Pavilion together is reasonable and unexpected.
After all, in addition to the two of them, Duke Dingguo is also qualified to join the cabinet, and even Duke Yingguo Fu Youde from Jiubian is also qualified.
However, these people are now leading troops on expeditions, and they have no chance to enter Wenyuan Pavilion to handle military affairs.
However, Duke Jiaxin and Duke Ding were granted the title of Grand Bachelor of Wuyingdian, which was more of a sign of appeasement and fairness.
After the candidates for Wenyuan Pavilion were decided in front of hundreds of officials, Zhu Biao coughed lightly and signaled to Ren Hengtai and others that it was time to speak.
Ren Hengtai understood the idea and immediately stepped forward holding the wat board.
"I have something to report."
Zhu Biao moved back and changed into a position that made him more comfortable: "Accurate."
Ren Hengtai said: "Your Highness, today there are not even one out of ten officials in the court. There have been frequent vacancies of local officials over the years. I would like to ask the court to recruit talented people from all over the world as soon as possible. I have been selected and transferred to the court for many years, and I have watched the administration for many years, but I have never held any office." He is a person who fills official vacancies, organizes government affairs, and comforts the people of the country."
Zhu Biao immediately exclaimed and looked sideways at Zhu Yunxi, who was sitting on the round stool: "Grandson, do you remember that your Majesty made an imperial edict to go to court yesterday? Hasn't all such matters already been sanctioned?"
Zhu Yunxi immediately stood up, bowed his hands and said, "There is indeed a will."
Zhu Biao raised his eyebrows and waved his hand: "Please tell me."
"My son takes orders."
Zhu Yunxi responded and turned around to face the officials in the court.
He did not speak in a hurry, but stood on the steps, looking calmly at the civil and military officials present today.
Time is passing by little by little, and the Huagai Hall is extremely quiet.
A sigh.
It broke the peace in the palace.
Zhu Yunxi spoke softly with a sad face: "It's so sad to be alone! It hurts!"
Rumble.
All the officials in the palace knelt down and worshiped on the ground again.
"It's my fault."
Officials unanimously accepted responsibility.
At this time, regardless of whether there is any guilt or fault, as the emperor, the emperor's grandson feels sad, and that is their fault.
Zhu Yunxi ignored it, but said sadly: "The Ming Dynasty has only been established for twenty-eight years. The court has generously rewarded talents, but now they are solitary. The faces of the past are no longer there today. I read history day and night, but I have never heard of it. The past in the world Is there any family that can leave nine out of ten officials in the court? It’s so painful, I can’t figure out where I went wrong.”
The officials stood lower.
"It's my fault."
Zhu Yunxi looked back at the prince's father and saw a silent smile on his face, which made him feel reassured.
He took a deep breath, turned around, and puffed out his chest.
"I thought about it again and again, and now I understand."
"The fault lies in this hall, and it lies between you and me!"
"Your Majesty issued five imperial edicts yesterday, in order to correct the mistakes for the Ming Dynasty, so that you and I can be worthy of the people of heaven and earth."
