The entire court almost turned into chaos, but Emperor Wanli took the opportunity to hit the stop button and said that this is the end of today's meeting. Everyone should go back to reflect and reflect. I also want to go back to the palace and reflect in my dream.
Dispersed.
The first time I got off work in Daming, it felt quite amazing.
The emperor argued with the ministers, but in the end he was given the official position of Imperial College Secretary on his head, he wrote a poem by himself, and then they started fighting among themselves... There was an element of internal fighting. Is this a characteristic of Ming Dynasty officialdom?
Of course, it would take a few days to officially be given the official robe with the Ming Dynasty beast from the fourth rank of the Imperial Academy. However, Ji Xiang doesn't plan to actually work in the Imperial College. Anyway, he is an additional member, so it is actually an honorary title.
It's okay, if I were to be given a real powerful official, I wouldn't be able to resign...but it's not realistic if I think about it.
The officials originally wanted to fight in the court, but were forced to get off work by the emperor. Now they are blocked at the Meridian Gate, arguing with the little old man Liu.
A characteristic of the Ming Dynasty: complaining about people at work and criticizing politics after get off work.
Say it once a day, if anyone doesn't die, the Ming Dynasty will be over. Wherever you go, the general environment is not good, and you are the one who can change the general environment.
Ji Xiang, on the other hand, composed a poem in four steps. This poem was murmured by many people, and he decided to copy it down when he returned home. It was still recognized among the civil servants.
Of course, there are also people who are hostile to Ji Xiang and preach on the side: "This Taoist priest is the second Tao Zhongwen! What happened last night may be like Tao Zhongwen setting a fire. He caused it by himself and then saved it by himself!" "
However, this slogan did not receive a response from most people, because someone from three elders came over to talk to him.
Who told you to talk nonsense here? What is your purpose in saying these words? Is your home close to Beizhen Fusi? I see that your new life, which can be imprisoned but cannot be imprisoned, is right before your eyes.
"Doesn't it feel good when someone is staring at you? It's okay. They are all officials. If the rumors are heard, it will be fine. If you have a thicker face, it will be okay."
Shen Yiguan, the elder of the cabinet and the second assistant to the cabinet, spoke to Ji Xiang and praised it: "But having said that, you are really good, little kid. This poem is really good. Is there any name for it?"
Ji Xiang said: "It's just inspired... I don't have a name yet... Why don't you give me one?"
Shen Yiguan smiled: "That's not okay. It's not that I don't want to give you the entire name of this poem, but if I get involved in writing poems, the officials will definitely tell you that I ordered you to write this poem. .”
"What kind of metaphor will it be and what method will it use? It can lead to a big conspiracy. Forget it. If you have a name for poetry in your heart, let me know when the time comes."
Ji Xiang's mind changed and he muttered: "How about calling it 'Reform'?"
What about the Reform and Reform? I will give you the whole letter in two days. The Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty have taken turns, and it is really a big job.
But Shen Guanyi thought about it for a couple of sentences and thought it was okay. Although it sounded a bit strange to read, it did fit the main body of the poem.
"Poetry of the Restoration, not bad."
The elder Ge was very satisfied and asked again: "By the way, do you want to give up studying? I think your literary talent is extraordinary, but you don't seem to know a little bit. Let me tell you, studying is still very promising, and you can cultivate immortality and live forever. , so many people practice hard every day, snail in the mountains, tired of living in the world, what good is it?"
Shen Yiguan seemed to be trying to win over him, and asked: "Did you know that Zhang Zhenren not only has an official position, but his wife is also the daughter of the prince-in-law of the dynasty, and his son, the little god, is regarded as a godson by His Majesty...or rather Godson? Anyway, he is very favored."
"If you study, your official career should go smoothly. Maybe you can become a relative of the emperor like Master Zhang."
"So, if you want to study now, go find me."
After the disbandment of the dynasty, the cabinet still had work to do. The three pavilions went back to work, and Ji Xiang also wanted to return to Longde Hall. However, Emperor Wanli had ordered people to move out all the things in Yangxin Hall and live in Longde Hall.
As for the other concubines, they all live in the Yangxin Palace. After all, almost all the Sixth Palace in the West was burned down. Except for Concubine Shang's Yongning Palace, nothing happened.
The Taiyuan Hospital went to the Yangxin Hall, but at noon, it was revealed that a concubine was expected to die in the past two days. Concubine Zhou and Concubine Xu were already delirious and angry. Concubine Liu Zhao was also frightened and gave birth. Serious illness.
The emperor mobilized some guards and entered Longde Hall. Longde Hall was not part of the inner palace. At noon, Ji Xiang saw a group of... divine eunuchs?
They are gods, not crazy. These eunuchs are indeed gods. Although most of them are Mao gods, Ji Xiang was very surprised.
"Who is Taoist Ji?"
Ji Xiang glanced at the leading eunuch, and the divine tablets in the inner scene reflected the divine inscriptions.
[Shilang Biluo: Righteous God, Tiancao! The middle rank of the Human Ministry is the 30th grade. According to legend in the Tang Dynasty, he is an immortal official in heaven. He is in charge of communication between heaven and the human world regarding sacrifices. Through his transmission, the sound of sacrifices can reach the ears of the Supreme Lord. 】
Ji Xiang saluted: "I am a poor man. I wonder if my father-in-law is looking for a poor man?"
"Oh, our family is the palm eunuch of the Shrine Palace Supervisor. On His Majesty's order, the statues of Lord Zhenwu and Emperor Ruizhong were sent back from the Shrine Palace Supervisor."
The supervisor of the shrine is the signature of the eunuch of the Ming Dynasty. It was established in the 10th year of Hongwu. It is located at the outer gate of the imperial city and is far away from the Forbidden City. It is one of the twelve eunuchs and has the chief eunuch with the palm seal. There are secretaries, chiefs, administrators, etc., who are in charge of cleaning, incense lamps, etc. in each temple.
There are not many of them, but they all have gods. They belong to the ranks of Tiancao, but they are all minor gods responsible for sacrifices and sweeps.
The Patriarch of the Sanqing Dynasty in Longde Hall was officially laid off, and Emperor Zhenwu and Ruizhong were re-employed.
Seeing the statue of the founder of the Sanqing Dynasty being moved outside the hall, Ji Xiang couldn't help but shake his head.
The appointment and dismissal of gods, the promotion and decline of status, are all decided by the contemporary dynasty, but moving statues is only a small matter.
The statue of the founder of the Sanqing Dynasty did not suppress the fire. If such a big thing happened, it would be replaced immediately after the incident, and Emperor Zhenwu would be given another job.
Moreover, the eunuch who oversees the shrine also said that the whole big incense burner will be replaced with this small one in two days, and now they want to take away the small incense burner.
Ji Xiang understood immediately, your shrine supervisor is a grocery warehouse, do you put everything in it?
"Father, the magic weapon here in Pindao is damaged, are you responsible for this..."
Ji Xiang said that his magic weapon was broken. Can he get a second-hand one from you, or can he report it for repair? The palm print eunuch smiled and said that if there is a purchase, there will be a plan, and if there is a plan, there will be oil and water. It depends on the Taoist priest. Is the demand too great?
At this time, the statue of Emperor Zhenwu was brought in. As he passed by Ji Xiang, Ji Xiang suddenly felt something in his heart and took a second look.
This statue of Emperor Zhenwu was said to have been obtained from nowhere during the reign of Emperor Jiajing. Ji Xiang stared at the statue of Emperor Zhenwu and suddenly felt that there was something inexplicable and strange about the statue.
