158 Royal Street Kuaguan (2 in 1)(1/2)
Not to mention the court officials were upset, even Chen Yichen felt a little flattered when he heard the emperor's words.
You should know that in ancient times, except for a few emperors, most of the speeches were more implicit, especially in public places like the court.
After all, once the emperor reveals obvious likes and dislikes, the people below will inevitably submit to their preferences. Over time, it will lead to the rise of mediocre ministers who are good at flattery, breeding chaos such as corruption in the court and the country, abuse of power, etc.
Of course, this is just a theoretical imperial criterion. In fact, the emperor is also a human being, and it is difficult for him to hide his emotions like a machine.
The emperors of the Ming Dynasty were as smart as Jiajing, and the love of Qingci practicing Taoism was also known to everyone in the world, which led to all the officials of the court who were welcomed. If you can't write a good Qingci, you will not even be worthy of the cabinet.
I can only say that Emperor Jiajing is indeed talented, and he is a bit tilted and can do whatever he wants, and he can control the government. Otherwise, there will be a ridiculous scene of "I feel sorry for the seat in the middle of the night, and I don't ask the people about ghosts and gods."
The emotional words of Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qizhen, were placed on any new top scholar. After hearing this, I was probably feeling that I was forgot about my feelings and wished that I could be loyal to the emperor and die!
But Chen Yichen knew very well in his heart that Zhu Qizhen was not a wise ruler!
It looks good now. Apart from some unknown people and protecting others, they did not cause too bad consequences in the current situation. The entire Ming Dynasty is still in a set track.
However, as Zhu Qizhen grew older, his ambition to make a difference became increasingly swell. He gradually became stubborn and insisted on his own, which eventually led to the tragedy of the Tumubao Incident.
As for what happened after the Tumu Fort Incident, it is even more difficult to write about.
To sum up, it’s just one sentence: Being a person is cold and ruthless, and being a king is a serious sin!
However, when the prelude to the palace was right, Chen Yichen had no choice when facing the emperor's "heartfelt words".
He could only show the excitement of a soldier dying for his confidant, and shouted with gratitude: "With your Majesty's kindness, I will die as my head, and die as my father, to repay your kindness!"
"Very good!"
Chen Yichen's response was a simple expression in the emperor's heart, which made Zhu Qizhen happy!
He subconsciously wanted to praise a few more words, but after seeing Wang Zhen's expression, he held back the words.
As an emperor, you must be upright, empty and stable. Now you have shown too much love for Chen Yichen, which is contrary to the emperor's teachings taught by your husband.
So Zhu Qizhen restrained his emotions and his expression returned to normal: "Chen Yichen, you haven't taken the word "大天" yet?"
After the palace examination, Zhu Qizhen also carefully looked at some candidate's masterpieces, and except for Chen Yichen, he already had the words "expression".
He was confused and curious. Logically speaking, there were only people in the civilians and rural villagers at this age, and there were very few literati members. Not to mention that Chen Yichen was already in two or five poems, it was a bit unreasonable to have no word "大".
If Chen Yichen could know what Zhu Qizhen was thinking at this moment, he would probably be embarrassed and speechless.
There is a record in "The Book of Rites": A man with twenty, and the word "Guan Er" is written on it.
It means that a man should perform the word "名名" in his twenties.
However, with the development of the times, the twentieth rituals of men in later generations were not limited to the age of twenty, and the word "大大" does not have to be taken after the twentieth rituals, mostly depending on the situation.
Generally speaking, those who are talented and famous young have already taken good words to perform the rituals of the weak.
Those who are stupid and have nothing to do will get the word "expression" late.
Just like Chen Yichen before, the child could not pass the exam for several years, and had been staying in the private school of the outside school and could not contact higher-level people. What words should be used?
It would be better if my childhood companions called him directly, there would not be so many etiquettes.
The reason is that Chen Yichen's life turns too fast, his plan cannot keep up with the changes, and he has no time to take a serious word for it.
Of course, these are all dark history in the past. When Chen Yichen met someone asking him why he didn't have any words to express himself, he usually found an excuse to make excuses.
But unexpectedly, the emperor mentioned this now.
"Return to the emperor, I have not yet obtained the word "title".
Hearing this, Zhu Qizhen knew it.
Since this is the case, it is better to choose a day than to meet the day. In order to show your kindness, I would just help him get the word "Gift".
"Chen Yichen, now you are the three-yuan and six poems, you should have a word that expresses your virtue."
"I give the word "to the north" today. I hope you can understand my intentions, serve the country with all my loyalty, and help the world and the people!"
After saying that, Zhu Qizhen also looked at Duke Cheng, his eyes full of profound meaning.
In recent years, the Ming Dynasty's attacks on the northern Mongolian forces were basically led by Duke Cheng Guo Zhu Yong, and in the ninth year of Zhengtong, he also won a "great victory" in the three guards of Urianha, and was promoted to Taibao to rank as the third duke!
Chen Yichen, as the son of Duke Cheng, must have the bloodline of military generals and Xunqi. Zhu Qizhen’s biggest wish is to chase Mongolia and seal the wolf’s servants from the north, creating his own civil and military achievements.
Zhu Qizhen gave Chen Yichen the word "To the North", which can be said to have a clear view of his ambitions and ideals, and also contains his expectations for his ministers.
If it were an ordinary emperor, he would not have given the word "Top" to Wen Zhuangyuan. However, Zhu Qizhen set a precedent for the Ming Dynasty civil officials to earn their titles with their martial arts, not to mention that Chen Yichen himself was a son of a military general Xunqi, which was not out of line for him.
"Oh, it still hasn't changed."
Chen Yichen sighed, but did not receive the joy of the emperor's name.
On the contrary, the word "name" given to the name today indicates that Zhu Qizhen's "ambition" for the northern grasslands will eventually have a war to determine the country's destiny.
The giant ship of history is still moving forward slowly.
"I, thank Your Majesty for your words!"
Chen Yichen kowtowed again to thank him, and this emperor's grace was so great that he was extremely favored in the eyes of the ministers in the palace!
"The emperor personally gave the word "Commentary" and I have never had it since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, right?"
"Of course not. Apart from Chen Yichen, who can do the world without taking the word "大" at the age of 18?"
"With your grace today, I'm afraid the emperor wants to replicate the example of Wang Ji, the Prince of Jingyuan, and become a general and a prime minister."
"I'm afraid it's more than that. Duke Cheng may have two titles!"
Maybe it was because Chen Yi Chen Emperor's kindness was too great today, and many of the red-robed officials in the palace couldn't care about the loss of etiquette in front of you and whispered.
"No noise can be made in the court!"
An official in charge of etiquette stood up and whispered a loud reminder to the ministers present, and the hall became quiet in an instant.
Seeing that the ministers were all unable to control their discussions, Zhu Qizhen understood that he could not continue to talk to Chen Yichen, otherwise it would be not a good thing to enjoy the holy grace alone.
So he looked at Yang Hongze and He Pingyan, and also spoke a few words of encouragement.
However, compared with Chen Yichen's "heart talk between the king and the minister", these encouraging words are a bit perfunctory and excessive, and the treatment is very different!
This gap made Yang Hongze and He Pingyan extremely unbalanced. Even if they were ranked behind in the imperial examination rankings, they would not be ignored to such a point, right?
In the past, literati often talked about the imperial examination scenery, and Chen Yichen occupied eight dou.
Now that the emperor’s grace is so great, Chen Yichen can dominate the eight dou?
This world is so unfair!
After chatting with Sandingjia, the ceremony of chanting the Lu is basically coming to an end. Zhu Qizhen signaled to the official of the Honglu Temple of His Highness, indicating that he could retreat to the court.
The sound of rituals and music outside the hall sounded again. After three whips, all civil and military officials knelt down and bowed to the new Jinshi, respectfully sending the emperor away from the court.
Although the Jin Palace Tour has ended, the top scholar ceremony has not ended. The speaker from the Honglu Temple came to Danbi and shouted: "The sky has opened up the fortune of literature, the virtuous and the virtuous are the ethics, and the courtesy is the celebration!"
This speech means the arrival of the ceremony of praising officials in the imperial street.
The so-called spring breeze is so proud that the horse's hooves are fast, and you can see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day. Now you are the top high school top student, so you can naturally celebrate with the people and experience what is the grand occasion of a ten-mile long street and a huge crowd.
At this time, a little eunuch from the Silijian walked over with Chen Yichen's top scholar wardrobe, and said humbly: "Zhuangyuan Gong, please go to the side hall with Xiao to change clothes and change into the top scholar wardrobe."
"Then I'll be in trouble."
Chen Yichen was very polite and did not show any contempt because of the other party’s identity as a young eunuch.
You should know that many eunuchs are mentally paranoid due to physical inseparable, and are very small in mind and easily hold grudges. Chen Yichen is unwilling to cause Wuwang disaster.
In addition, people should not behave like appearance. Who knows whether today's eunuch will become Wang Zhen, Wei Zhongxian and others tomorrow?
If you want to be well-informed and control the government, then it is a necessary condition to establish a good relationship with the internal officials. If you can make good relationships, Chen Yichen will not get along with him.
"The Prince of the First Yuan is the noble of Grandpa Wang, and he is so young that he dare not take the name of his father-in-law."
Wang Zhen’s noble man?
Chen Yichen was a little surprised when he heard this term. When did he get so close to Wang Zhen? Even the eunuchs in the palace are treated as nobles?
With this inexplicable feeling, Chen Yichen came to the side hall and changed into the robes of the top scholar. Looking at the scorching robe in the bronze mirror that represented the noble power, he was a little dazed in an instant. Is this what the powerful looks like?
"Zhuangyuan Gong, after you put on this court suit, you can be regarded as a talented person."
The little eunuch looked at Chen Yichen standing in front of the bronze mirror without moving, thinking that he was addicted to self-appreciation, so he leaned over and quickly complimented him.
This sentence interrupted Chen Yichen's trance. He smiled without saying much, turned around and walked out of the hall.
After resigning from the court, the civil and military officials did not leave the scene as usual. They were waiting for Chen Yichen to appear.
Because the so-called "Imperial Street Promotion" ceremony is the process of sending the "Great Golden List" to the left gate of Chang'an to the next door of the left. The top scholar will lead the new Jinshi all the way, and the people of the capital will come to watch the list, thus forming a unique ceremony of promoting officialdom.
So now that the imperial list has not yet been released from the palace, all civil and military officials are not allowed to leave!
When Chen Yichen appeared in the robes of the top scholar, the civil and military officials and the new Jinshi who had begun to chat with each other politely as the emperor retired from the court all looked at him.
"It's really touching to look young."
"This is the style of the Three Yuans and the Leader of the Ming Dynasty, and the world is unique!"
"The blood of honor and relatives, the literati are united and the character of the scholar is truly extraordinary."
"I really envy Duke Cheng. If I had this son, I would probably have smoke coming from the ancestral tomb."
