Chapter 605: One stone stirs up a thousand waves (Chapter 5)
Everything started to be better, and it was much smoother. After the daytime practice, Ye Chunqiu returned home. As soon as he arrived home, he saw Deng Jian waiting for him anxiously.
"Spring and Autumn...Spring and Autumn..." Deng Jian waved to him excitedly and said, "Come on, come on... something big happened..."
When something big happened, he could even laugh.
Ye Chunqiu held up the calm smile on his face, and finally showed a bit of solemn expression. He stepped forward a few steps and asked him to sit in the small hall. Then he saw Deng Jian anxiously saying: "It's really a stone that stirred up a thousand layers of waves..."
Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but say: "Brother Deng, can I finish the words at once? I feel uncomfortable listening."
Deng Jian frowned and said, "You don't know. The Censorate is now full of righteous indignation. The Imperial College is not much better. Everyone knows that Zhang Yong suppresses you, the Warriors Camp suppresses you, a scholar who is the new army in the country. Oh... it's a big fuss now."
It's a big mess, does it have anything to do with your own family?
Ye Chunqiu began to doubt life.
Seeing Ye Chunqiu blinking without knowing why, Deng Jian said again: "I have written a letter to impeach Zhang Yong. More people will impeach tomorrow. Now everyone is looking forward to Chunqiu being able to hold on. I must not let Zhang Yong bully us scholars. You don't know how much the discussions in the market have reached."
Ye Chunqiu then realized that this was Wang Shouren's plan, but he didn't know if this brother-in-law's plan could work.
However, early the next morning, Ye Chunqiu really understood what Deng Jian said that a stone caused a thousand waves. Logically, he should have gone to the Hanlin Academy. As soon as he arrived at the Hanlin Academy, Zheng Shixue hurried out and said, "Chunqiu, follow me to the palace."
Ye Chunqiu was a little embarrassed and bowed to Zheng Shixue: "Students are afraid they will go..."
Zheng Shixue hurriedly said, "It's not that you are waiting in the attendance room, but that Liu Gong asked you to speak."
Mr. Liu...
Ye Chunqiu was slightly stunned, but he did not dare to neglect it. The Chief Auxiliary of the Cabinet named him and wanted to see him. This should not be a bad thing, right?
Ye Chunqiu of course knew Liu Jian's strength. Although the regent minister who was left by the late emperor did not involve the court and was just working hard, his influence was amazing.
Ye Chunqiu followed Zheng Shixue into the palace, went to the attendant room, parted with Zheng Shixue, and then went to the cabinet.
What surprised Ye Chunqiu was that he was not taken to the tea room, but the main hall of the cabinet. Ye Chunqiu knew a little about the rules of the cabinet. Generally, scholars summoned anyone or talked about official duties, most of the time they did it in the tea room, drinking tea and chatting casually. After all, it was just explaining some things, and there was no need to be so serious about it.
However, going to the main hall of the cabinet is not very meaningful. Generally, only if the cabinet convenes the department of each department to discuss matters, it will be arranged there.
Although he had speculation in his heart, Ye Chunqiu was cheered up and arrived at the main hall and saw four bachelors waiting here.
When Liu Jian saw Ye Chunqiu, he smiled and even looked at Ye Chunqiu deeply. Li Dongyang was still as mysterious as usual. However, Xie Qian had a stern face, but Jiao Fang's eyes fell on the tea cup he picked up. Looking at Tea Mo'er floating in the tea water, he didn't know what he was thinking.
Ye Chunqiu stepped forward and bowed, "The emperor has met all the ministers."
"Oh, Chunqiu, come and sit down." Liu Jian smiled and winked at the clerk beside him.
The clerk brought a chair to Ye Chunqiu, and Ye Chunqiu was lying down. To be honest, Ye Chunqiu had dealt with the cabinet scholars, but this was the first time he had faced such a solemn scene.
Ye Chunqiu couldn't help feeling a little nervous and said, "I wonder if Mr. Liu called the officials to come, what should I explain?"
Liu Jian smiled and said, "Oh, what's wrong with your new army in the country?"
Ye Chunqiu was confused. With such a big formation, this is what you want to ask about?
Ye Chunqiu said respectfully: "Everything is ready, and now it is gradually getting on the right track."
"I'm going to work hard." Liu Jian'er's face was obviously a little more kinder than when he saw Ye Chunqiu in the past, and then encouraged: "There has never been a Hanlin trainee in the world, nor has scholars joined the army. You are the first one. Most of the people in your camp are Tongsheng? Although it is indeed criticized when you say it, but... since you have done it, you must do your business well and must not give up halfway."
Ye Chunqiu vaguely remembered that the last time he told Liu Jian and others that his Majesty ordered him to train troops, and Liu Jian and others only nodded reluctantly.
But today, there is obvious encouragement.
Ye Chunqiu looked up at Liu Jian and saw that Liu Jian was full of expectations for him, while Li Dongyang smiled at him. Xie Qian was blowing his beard and glaring at this time: "The new army in Zhenguo, although there is no quota, he is always considered a village chariot. I am in charge of the Ministry of War. If you have any difficulties, you might as well tell me. If you can help, you will definitely help."
Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but feel a little amused. Xie Qian was interesting. He clearly said something to help, but he had to look like a fierce god.
However, Ye Chunqiu remembered that Xie Qian entered the cabinet in the name of the Minister of War, so he still served as the Minister of War.
The new army of Zhenguo is actually the product of the little emperor's whim. In fact, the little emperor has produced a lot of things on his whim. Logically speaking, the cabinet bachelor will not take these seriously.
Because Ye Chunqiu, a consultant in training troops, was of the nature of a ritual.
The so-called official position of the emperor is a position directly appointed by the emperor without going through the Ministry of Personnel, without going through the selection process, court recommendation, and ministry discussion. This violated the normal procedures at that time, but was only to satisfy the wishes of the emperor or a concubine or eunuch in the harem. The attitude of the cabinet has always been deeply disgusted with this official position, and neither Liu Jian nor Jiao Fang had any good impression of the official position.
Liu Jian disliked the fact that it destroyed the state system and made the emperor slapped his head and appointed certain people as officials; while Jiao Fang and Zhang Cai were accomplices, Zhang Cai was the Minister of Personnel and was originally responsible for selecting officials. If the emperor slapped his head and could pass on the people as officials, what else could this Minister of Personnel be?
Ye Chunqiu was a Hanlin editor and was simply a member of the official position. He was barely accepted by people. The most hated thing was the kind of person who didn't even participate in the imperial examination. Maybe he was just a painter or a monk and could wear black veil on his head.
Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but think that Liu Gong just pinched his nose and accepted this matter. Why did he care so much about his mission of preaching this day? Oh, and Mr. Xie. Although Mr. Xie is close to him, Ye Chunqiu never believed that he, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and Minister of War, would give up his principles because of his relationship with him.
