Chapter 244 Zhu Yunxi’s court meeting alone(1/2)

 My grandson is becoming more and more heroic now."

Sun Gou'er, the general manager of the inner palace of the Ming Dynasty, looked at Zhu Yunxi in the bronze mirror who was wearing the dragon robe (not the emperor's robe) of the imperial concubine of the Ming Dynasty, and couldn't help but sigh.

Zhu Yunxi glanced sideways at Sun Gou'er, feeling that such words should not come from this eunuch's mouth.

"The manager should stop praising others from now on."

Sun Gou'er bowed down and said, "What Grand Sun said is that this old slave talks too much."

Zhu Yunxi nodded, patted the hand of Tang Queqing who was still smoothing his clothes, and waved to Mu Caiyun who was holding the ornament on his waist to come over.

"After today's court meeting, let me tell the people below that this year we will send two more servings of iced food to each house in the court. The old people themselves can't eat all day long, but the children at home can't stand the heat."<

/p>

Tang Queqing nodded, and Mu Caiyun wore a jade pendant for Zhu Yunxi.

Sun Gou'er, who was not at Zhu Yuanzhang's side today, said in a low voice: "Today in Beijing, everyone above the fifth rank will go to the palace to attend the court meeting. I heard that some people had prepared memorials last night."

Zhu Yunxi immediately turned to look at Sun Gouer.

Sun Gouer hurriedly explained: "It was the commander Jiang Yu who sent someone to inform the old slave."

Only then did Zhu Yunxi put away his scrutinizing eyes: "What is the situation outside the palace now?"

Sun Gouer whispered: "Yesterday Huguang's son Liu Jingxing went to Yingtian Mansion and surrendered to participate in yesterday's private fight between students outside the Book and News Bureau."

"Oh?" Zhu Yunxi had a faint smile on his face: "Ying Tianfu took it over?"

Sun Gouer chuckled: "Liu Jingxing is a candidate for the imperial examination, and he has been registered to take part in this year's examination. Ying Tianfu has no way to evade this matter."

"Okay, let's go to the front court."

Zhu Yunxi watched Mu Caiyun put on the decoration for himself, stretched out his hand to pinch the other person's face, and when the other person wrinkled his nose and groaned in dissatisfaction, he waved and walked away.

The long Thousand Steps Corridor behind the Hongwu Gate is always a good place for civil and military officials to discuss government affairs or gossip among neighbors during the last stretch before going to court.

Both the civil and military parties were dressed in red, purple, blue and green, and a large combination of birds and animals made the dull and monotonous Thousand Steps Corridor look colorful and lively.

One side of the beast.

Dressed in red official robes, the founding father Chang was promoted to military attaché and walked at the forefront.

Because Cao Guogong Li Jinglong went to the Japanese state to command the Japanese army, Liang Guogong Lan Yu also led the army to the northwest, and Tang Li, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army, was also in Zhejiang Province. Other princes of the Ming Dynasty have also been commanding troops in the border areas.

.

This made Chang Sheng the only leader of the military generals in the DPRK.

Chang Sheng walked at the front, glanced at the civil servants opposite, and then turned back slightly.

After a while, Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, and Zhang Wen, the Marquis of Huining, who were lagging behind, came over.

"What news is coming from the civil servants?"

Chang Sheng's words are concise and concise, without any cover-up or twists and turns.

Cao Zhen glanced at Zhang Wen beside him and motioned for him to speak.

Zhang Wen whispered: "Yesterday, Liu Jingxing, the eldest son of Huguang, went to Yingtian Mansion to surrender. Now he is being detained in Yingtian Mansion. It will probably wait until the end of today's court meeting to determine how to deal with it."

"Hmm." Chang Sheng said humbly.

Zhang Wen looked up at the founding father who was walking in front, and whispered: "Yesterday, the imperial army and the imperial guards published a book and newspaper to suppress the turmoil. Some civil servants thought that the matter should be raised to the level of letting the imperial guards take action."

Chang Sheng snorted twice: "There are thousands of people entangled. If I hadn't worried that they were all students of the imperial dynasty, I would have rebelled and ordered them to be suppressed."

Zhang Wen felt that the founding father, who was always kind in the past, was not lying at all when he said this.

If he had not been a student yesterday, as the highest military commander currently in charge of Yingtian, he would really have ordered the killing and suppression of those people.

This is the responsibility and power that Jingwei should have.

Instead, thousands of mobs and thieves gathered to fight in the newspaper office. If Jingwei did not act, it would be the biggest fault.

Cao Zhen spoke at this time: "Now that those people are being detained in the imperial prison by the Jinyi Guards, they are no longer a matter of our military guards."

Zhang Wen pulled Cao Zhen, and then asked Chang Sheng: "This matter will be discussed in the court today, what should I do?"

Chang Sheng looked back at Zhang Wen and said calmly: "We are His Majesty's soldiers."

Zhang Wen was stunned for a moment, then nodded silently.

But he couldn't help but look at the civil servants opposite.

"What are the generals thinking?" Zhan Hui, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Censor of Zuodu of the Duchayuan, who was walking at the front of the civil service team, said indifferently.

Ru Ru, the minister of war, who was walking side by side with him, smiled slightly: "They are the swords in your majesty's hands, they will not have any ideas."

Zhan Hui nodded and seemed to feel relieved: "Since the Ministry of War said so, I believe it."

"The officials should think about what they will say in today's memorial." Ru Jun muttered quietly, turning her head quietly to look at her colleagues not far behind her.

Zhan Hui snorted twice: "I am a member of the civil service department, but I am also a procuratorate!"

Ru Yu curled her lips and looked at the Meridian Gate that was already in front of her.

He sighed to Zhan Hui: "So you are not only the official department, but also the procuratorate..."

Zhan Hui smiled slightly and walked through the Meridian Gate with Ru Yu and entered the Huangji Palace Square.

Liu Sanwu, a member of the Zhongshu House, looked back at the Meridian Gate Tower behind him and muttered indifferently: "The Meridian Gate has passed, and the Zhongji Hall is not far away."

Zhao Mian, the Minister of Household Affairs who was lagging behind, also followed the old man's gaze and turned his head to look at the towering Meridian Gate Tower, covered with layers of glazed tiles.

In his sight, Xie Jin, a Hanlin bachelor, was walking in the Wenhua Hall, with his hands clasped together, walking with several colleagues from the Hanlin Academy, and had just walked out of the Meridian Gate.

"Liu Jingxing was detained in Yingtian Mansion. This matter is no longer just the fault of Jinyiwei. Liu Sheren can rest assured that even if His Majesty still doesn't come forward in court today, the Crown Prince will always uphold justice.

Liu Sanwu snorted coldly: "Your Majesty will definitely come forward today. Otherwise, how can the Holy Judgment be fair in this matter?"

Zhao Mian shut his mouth.

Colleagues from the Hanlin Academy who were walking with Xie Jin opened their mouths: "Today, I'm afraid you are going to make a scene."

As he spoke, this Hanlin Academy official had a strange look in his eyes.

Xie Jin looked at the other party outside: "Aren't you a disciple of Neo-Confucianism?"

"This does not prevent me from watching the fun today, and what about disciples of Neo-Confucianism? I think it is not wrong for you to integrate learning, knowledge and action. When you are an official and a citizen, you cannot rely on the articles of sages and sages to do things, right?" The man replied dully.

A sentence.

Xie Jin opened his mouth, feeling that he couldn't keep up with the other party's ideas, so he had to say: "Come to the bookstore with you to write a book?"

The man shook his head: "No, at least now I can't hold the pen in your bookstore."

Xie Jin nodded, feeling that the other party was not wrong.

Although the pens of the Book and Newspaper Bureau are only modest, it really requires a lot of strength to write.

But the man said directly: "The dispute over orthodoxy. As the place where the civil servants of the country are chief, our Hanlin Academy will not take sides this time and will not make a sound. A place that raises scholars throughout the country should not be involved in such things.

You are an anomaly, and it is understandable that you want to become a saint in the study of mind.

None of us have ever thought about becoming the new sage of Confucianism, but you are more courageous, and everyone admires you for this. But when things don’t work out, or when everyone can’t see the way forward, they won’t comment on your work.<

/p>

If they win, the Hanlin Academy will still follow Zheng Zhu and Neo-Confucianism. If you win, the Hanlin Academy will be named Jie from now on."

The words were suddenly spoken before entering Zhongji Hall, which inevitably surprised Xie Jin.

He tilted his head and looked at the other party again, and finally understood that this was the message that his colleagues in the Hanlin Academy asked the other party to convey to him.

But he still frowned: "If I remember correctly, you were born in Huizhou Prefecture."

There are many champions in Huizhou, and as many as dogs in the two rankings.

But the man smiled: "Do you think there are innocent families in the Hanlin Academy? It's just that we are His Majesty's ministers first and foremost, and we are officials of the Ming Dynasty. The affairs at home have nothing to do with us, and whoever wins is ours.

Minister."

This not only opened the door to words, but also exposed their bottom line.

Xie Jin smiled helplessly: "You have always been like this, starting from the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, and even more so during the Song Dynasty. You deserve to be a member of the Han Dynasty for generations, and you deserve to be able to eat with bells and cauldrons."

The man raised his hand and patted Xie Jin on the shoulder: "Go ahead and do it. Personally speaking, I hope you win this round. The science of science is too big. This is something I didn't win before ten years ago."

I understand, it’s just that the imperial court wants Enke to select talents. My family has been studying for hundreds of years, and I have no choice.

Now I have a choice, so I really want to go to the book and newspaper office to take a look and try to weigh the weight of your pen.

They discussed it all day yesterday, and apart from those who hold neutral opinions, there are still many people like me who have a detached nature and hope for change, but are bound by rules and can only sit and watch."

Xie Jin took two deep breaths: "So they chose you to tell me what I want to say today."

The man shook his head: "It's not that they chose to let me come, but that I beat them in a round."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Xie Jin with a deep look.

So, Xie Jin stood still and bowed.

"They will first enter the court and bow, and then the mountains will shout thousand years old. In the end, His Highness only needs to nod, or open his mouth and say no, and the old slave will shout."
