It was obviously a tribute to scold the emperor, so why did it pass the way?

Because this must pass the Ministry of Rites, even the cabinet, and the Zongling Mansion, it still needs the final inspection of the Hanlin Academy.

The Ming Dynasty system was not so much a monarch as a monarch and a literati.

The most important part of it is the scholar-officials. To put it bluntly, any scholar-officials must stand the test of scholars. Scholars have high moral standards for those who hold high positions, and the most important thing is the word "faithfulness and integrity". You must be upright.

So even if Jiao Fang relies on Liu Jin to take office, after all, this kind of thing is just something that some people doubt. You will not see whether Jiao Fang colludes with Liu Jin, let alone Jiao Fang is at least consistent with the philosophy of scholars on the surface.

Then this sacrificial text is interesting. When selecting, the Ministry of Rites finally selected it, obviously because no one dared to stop it. If the same sacrificial text was full of peace and prosperity, good weather, and wise monarch, and the other sacred article was to blame himself. As the Minister of Rites, which one would you choose?

Of course it is the latter, because choosing the former may lead to criticism. Where can this country be prosperous and peaceful? You are clearly flattering, telling lies, lying, and wanting to please the palace! Sun Hu, Sun Hu, I didn’t expect you to be such a person, what about your philosophy and integrity?

Choosing the latter is obviously the safest way. Although I offended the Emperor, the sacrificial text will eventually pass the Silijian. Anyway, I will choose it. It is your business that you agree or not in the end.

When the sacrificial text was sent to the cabinet, it was obvious that the cabinet scholars who were exemplary in the minds of scholars could not be called back. What happened to others telling the truth? Can't people tell the truth? Why do you want to stop me? Could it be that the Ming Dynasty cannot have a foothold for upright people?

The people in the cabinet almost unanimously approved it. Next, one was obviously sent to the Silijian and the other to Hanlin.

The Silijian will generally pass the passage because it is too late to choose another one. Moreover, this kind of sacrificial text is confused and roundabout. Generally, people who are not of Jinshi level may not be able to understand it. The Silijian does not say anything, and no one here in Hanlin will jump out to object!

In short, if you choose this tribute, you will be praised. Hello, I will be happy. Hello, everyone.

After reading a tribute, Sun Xu said with a faint smile: "Do you guys have any missing?"

After a moment of silence, the new Hanlin scholar said, "This article is very good."

In fact, it is just a formality. In the officialdom, what is actually asked to check is often placed before the cabinet is set. In other words, if you really want to ask for advice, the process should be that the Ministry of Rites will first send it to the Hanlin Academy and then to the cabinet, but they have already sent it to the cabinet first. The cabinet's officials have already taken the board. Who dares to pick on it?

Ye Chunqiu wanted to laugh in his heart. Since Hongwu, the bureaucratic system of this scholar-official doctor has been extremely bloated. Countless clear rules and following rules are like a mess, entangled with each other. Even those in the officialdom may not be able to see through, let alone outsiders.

Ye Chunqiu is no longer the young man who was unknown to him. His year-long experience in officialdom has made him become more and more calm.

But Sun Xu took a sip of tea and said, "Who is Ye Xiu?"

Sun Hui asked this question, but Ye Chunqiu became the target of public criticism. Dai Dabin squeezed at Ye Chunqiu and muttered in a low voice with envy: "Emperor Ye is now well-known, and even the ministry has come to him."

Ye Chunqiu gently patted his knees with his hand, meaning to make him cautious, and then he slowly got up, arrived at the hall, and saluted: "The lower official Ye Chunqiu is a Hanlin editor and met the master of the ministry."

Sun Xie looked at him, then smiled a little, and said, "I have also been in office for a while. I heard that the Hanlin recently had a talented man with both civil and military skills. At a young age, I am awesome young man. It's rare... Ha... I'm old."

When he said this, everyone laughed, and the lecturer He Mao couldn't help but interrupt: "Mr. Sun is still strong."

Sun Xie waved his hand and continued, "Comrade Ye thought, how about this sacrificial text?"

He said, looking at Ye Chunqiu with a smile on his face.

Ye Chunqiu knew that this Sunbutang was not just trying to see what a 'talented man' was as simple as it was. To some extent, it should be a test.

Others may be confused by this kind of sacrificial text, but to these well-read people, even though they are gorgeous, they do not contain a single dirty word, such as the word "unethical" in it, it is just a sentence "After gradual effort to think about one's own mistakes, one must cultivate virtue and correct oneself to comfort the ancestors."

It sounds pretty rhyme, but in fact, where did you think? If you are not immoral, why should you cultivate virtue?

Ye Chunqiu felt that these people were quite unkind. They would eat others and wear others' clothes, but they would even make money.

Ye Chunqiu could understand this sacrificial article, but Sun needs to ask specifically, actually just to let Ye Chunqiu express his attitude.

Ye Chunqiu was cautious and couldn't help but wonder if he had been getting closer to the emperor recently, which made people doubt it? Sun needs to come and ask, but to some extent, he wanted to express his feelings?

In simple terms, Sun Xu’s intention is, are you Ye Chunqiu or are you our own people?

If Ye Chunqiu said that the sacrificial text was wrong and the country was prosperous and the people were safe, it would be bad. A flattering and flattering discussion in the palace was inevitable. Sun Xu and the people behind him would probably be alienated from Ye Chunqiu.

This is a society of circles, and everyone should have their own circle.

But if Ye Chunqiu recognized this sacrificial text, he was a little sorry for Zhu Houzhao. Ye Chunqiu thought about it and said, "This article is very good, but I don't know who wrote it?"

As soon as he said it was very good, Sun Xu smiled and then said, "It was done by Zhang Yao, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites. Chunqiu really has the ability to see."

Uh... I was called Ye Chunqiu just now, but now I changed my word to call Chunqiu. It seemed that the relationship became closer.

Ye Chunqiu is also drunk with this damn scholar.

Ye Chunqiu saluted without being humble and arrogant, and returned to the class. Sun Xu said to the new Hanlin scholar: "Chunqiu is young and talented, and he will definitely be a pillar in the future."

The Hanlin Bachelor is busy nodding and saying yes, but the meaning is profound. Ye Chunqiu is a relatively outlier in the Hanlin. Generally, no one is provoking him, but sometimes he may not like him.

Now the Ministry of Rites is bound to be a pillar. A light sentence is not known whether it is intentional or unintentional. But just one sentence is enough to make the Hanlin people change their attitude towards Ye Chunqiu. Obviously, Ye Chunqiu is very popular now.
