Chapter 655: Guilty

Since Liu Jian and the others asked that time, there has been no news from the cabinet.

He did not look for him again, which made Ye Chunqiu feel relieved, but he did not dare to go to the imperial edict. Now it is time for the palace and the cabinet to avoid suspicion.

Therefore, Ye Chunqiu was busy conquering the country and the army's affairs. When New Year's Eve approached, the festival was about to begin.

The plaque hanging in the Hall of Supreme Harmony is the four characters that Emperor Taizu appointed, which is the so-called "respect for heaven and law of ancestors", and these four characters almost set the most basic tone for the etiquette and law of the Ming Dynasty.

Etiquette cannot be abolished, and ancestors cannot be ignored.

Therefore, sacrifices are divided into three types, one is enjoyment sacrifice, which is a regular sacrificial ceremony. Every year, the four seasons, spring, summer, autumn and winter, sacrifices are held on the first day of the lunar calendar in the first month of each season. The tablets in various places in the Taimiao must be held at the Enjoy Hall, and the emperor will come here to worship his ancestors in person. It is called "Si Meng Shi Xiang", abbreviated as enjoying sacrifices, which sacrifices the vegetables, fruits and melons and fruits of the time at that time to worship ancestors.

From the outside, it is a sacrifice. Whenever the country encounters major issues, the emperor ascends the throne, the emperor's wedding, or the empress becomes a sacrifice. Just like when the empress is pregnant last time, Empress Dowager Zhang thinks it is a big deal, so she lets Zhu Houzhao go to the sacrifice, probably telling his ancestors that Zhu Houzhao finally has a descendant.

The real sacrificial ceremony is a sacrificial ceremony, which is the largest sacrificial ceremony in the year. On the day before New Year's Eve every year, the emperors and empresses of all dynasties will be invited to the main hall to celebrate together. At that time, the emperor will lead all officials here to commemorate the emperors of all dynasties. In addition, the Ministry of Rites has planned a sacrificial text. This sacrificial text not only shows the praise and admiration of future generations for their ancestors, but also reports what happened this year.

Generally speaking, it is actually the situation of peace and stability. At the end of the year, the most lively thing is this. The sacrificial text alone is enough to give them a headache.

It is indeed a headache to draft the tribute. After the drafting is made, not only will the cabinet make a decision, but the Hanlin Academy also needs to gather to inspect it.

This is equivalent to a letter to Zhu Houzhao's ancestors. How can it be unofficial and solemn?

So on December 23, Ye Chunqiu was summoned to the Minglun Hall of Hanlin Academy. Here, more than a hundred Hanlin people were already kneeling down solemnly. Ye Chunqiu was young and had to pick a seat next to Dai Dabin. Dai Dabin winked at him and smiled and said, "Our general of Hanlin Academy is here."

Ye Chunqiu knew that although his words were 'spicy', he had no malice. He knelt on his side and whispered: "How is the national historical cultivator?"

Dai Dabin immediately showed a depressed expression. After all, he was young and could not bear it when dealing with countless literature and history every day. He was not very satisfied with his current job.

However, at this time, he saw that the Minister of Rites Sun Tsing arrived with the officials himself.

Dai Dabin met Sun Xu and whispered: "This Sunbutang is the new Minister of Rites. He offended the eunuch in Henan a few years ago and almost capsized in the gutter. Who knew that after his fortune was gone, he was granted the title of Minister of Rites. In the middle of the year, Liu Jin impeached him and still stood firm."

Ye Chunqiu squinted his eyes. When he searched his brain, he immediately knew that he had changed history.

In history, this Sunbutang is obviously the focus of the game. After offending the eunuchs in Henan, he immediately suffered revenge from the eunuchs. However, not only was he not finished, he was promoted to the official position and became the Ministry of Rites. But the next thing was interesting. Who would be the person who supported him to become the Minister of Rites?

What’s even more interesting next is that Liu Jin began to impeach him. In history, after Liu Jin impeached him, Sun Xu should have retired, but now he is still in the Ministry of Rites.

This is obviously in history. Although some people support him, when Liu Jin jumped out and fought in hand-to-hand combat, some of the people who supported him finally decided to give up. I believe they were unwilling to cause divisions in the court, or to cause any major trouble.

Now, not only did the people behind these Sun Tsinghua University not only did not choose to compromise, but also... it seemed that Sun Tsinghua University was quite comfortable.

This was a naked slap in Liu Jin's face, but Liu Jin had no choice but to do anything about it.

Ye Chunqiu thought to himself: "There are only two reasons. One is that several concubines in the harem are pregnant, and the country will have a prince. At this time, the people behind Sun Xu were given great hope. They were no longer discouraged and had a bit of enterprising spirit. They even began to secretly compete with a group of people led by Liu Jin; on the other hand, after Liu Jin sued Ye Chunqiu, he was punished by Zhu Houzhao, which made him start to clamp his tail and dare not make big news anymore."

Ye Chunqiu glanced at Sun Xu. The master of the tribe was kneeling in the upper seat like stars and the moon was held by Hanlin scholars.

Since he was a minister who specialized in etiquette and law, Sun Xu looked serious and raised his eyelids, and the ritual official beside him said: "The Ministry of Rites has formulated a tribute, and all officials will listen quietly."

"Alas..."

A ritual official opened the book and began to recite it. The sacrificial text should have been determined by the cabinet, but he needed to come to the Hanlin to find omissions and mistakes. The ancestors could not fool them, so they must be very cautious.

Ye Chunqiu was kneeling and listening, but when he heard it, he was amused and crying.

Basically, this sacrificial text is still very contagious. In addition to exaggerating the mood of remembering ancestors, it is just starting to curse people. No, it should not be considered a sacrificial text, but a self-destruction, because the sacrificial text was written in the name of the emperor.

Then I told my ancestors that at the beginning of the year, I had a gangster. Well, this was all my fault. I was confused and didn't even notice it. Then I said that a locust plague occurred in Henan. I was wrong. My virtue was a loss. This virtue was a loss. It means that I was too immoral. So I was too immoral, so I was punished. Then the land of Yunnan collapsed. Well, I was immoral again. I was moody and did absurd things at a certain time. What I was even more immoral...

Ye Chunqiu felt uncomfortable and almost laughed out loud. This little emperor was not moral and did not know. Ye Chunqiu didn't know, but he was pulled out to criticize him from time to time, but he didn't know what he would feel.

Ye Chunqiu did not make any noise because this obviously conforms to the philosophy of the scholars and officials. Who is not moral?

What's more, the people who planned the sacrificial texts of the Ministry of Rites wrote them roughly with the feeling that I like to write like this. In fact, many people must be thinking that this guy is really trying to die. This is obviously embarrassing the emperor. But, after all, this sacrificial text was passed through all the way. Obviously, there were still praises. The political ecology of the Ming Dynasty made Ye Chunqiu even more impressive.
