Chapter 552
Now, everyone finally understood.
Why were all the civil and military officials rewarded? Only Liu Chun got nothing except the young master's title, and it turned out that he was waiting here!
Yan Shenggong, Your Majesty, you really dare to think about it!
You want to be a saint to Liu Chun, sorry, we won’t agree.
Yes, almost none of the civil officials present agreed.
But the problem is that they have not thought about how to deal with it. After all, Zhu Di will not speak easily, and since he has said it, he will not take it back hastily. And Liu Chun is also a powerful figure with great hands and eyes. If he offended Liu Chun, he would not have a good end.
Everyone was very afraid and reluctant to bow their heads.
Therefore, he fell into a strange silence.
Zhu Di's face was unhappy. I made a suggestion, but no one came out to agree. It was really hateful.
He looked at it for a long time and said to Jian Yi, the Minister of Rites: "What does your Rites mean?"
Jian Yi hurriedly stood up, "I told Your Majesty that the Ministry of Rites was indeed responsible for the enthronement of Yan Shenggong. Yan Shenggong's duty was to worship Confucius every year, command the scholars and strengthen righteousness... Master Liu was talented and knowledgeable, both civil and military, and was his right-hand man. I think whether it was to let Lord Liu take charge of one or assist His Majesty, it was much better than serving as a sacrificial official, so please observe it."
Jian Yi was a Jinshi from the Hongwu Dynasty, and his qualifications were slightly worse than those of Zhao Mianru and Ruyi. When it comes to being sophisticated and cunning, he was still better than those of him.
His reason is very powerful. Liu Chun is too capable. He gave him a grievance to him and asked him to do something else.
Zhu Di did not take this trick and said lightly: "The position can be adjusted. I said that if you promote education, promote science, assist the government, and evaluate gains and losses, you can do all these Yansheng Gong. In the past, Yansheng Gong had any suggestions when he entered the court, he could write to him."
Zhu Di said lightly and blocked Jian Yi's words. At this time, Lian Zining suddenly spoke, "Your Majesty, I dare to ask for advice. If Lord Liu inherits the position of Yan Shenggong, should I also go to Qufu, Shandong?"
This is called taking the second best. It’s okay to really seal it. If we take him to Shandong, we won’t care.
Zhu Di snorted, Lian Zining really doesn't know who he is. Huang Zicheng and his group were killed. You were going to be your company too. I miss you surrendered very early and give you some sunshine. Why do you dare to become brighter?
"Since Liu Chun is asked to be responsible for the government, how can he go to Shandong?"
Lian Zining was so scared that he retreated in a hurry and dared not say anything else.
After the two people opposed it, Zhu Di was very unhappy and said coldly: "My dear friends, I regard Liu Chun as the Lord of Yan Sheng. Do you all disagree?"
How do you answer this?
After a while of silence, the bald Yao Guangxiao stood up and said, "I'm telling you, the old minister thinks it's not that everyone disagrees, but that they can't accept it."
He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, please think that from ancient times to the present, all those who have been associated with the word "Saint" are recognized as great people. Take Buddhism as a Buddhist, Taoism, and I am the saint of Laozi, and Confucianism is naturally Confucius... Now Your Majesty wants Lord Liu to be the Lord Yan Shenggong, some of which are a bit sudden. The old minister thinks that you can give you some time to think about it carefully. The old minister thinks that everyone will figure it out."
As one of Zhu Di's planners, Daoyan's words are still very important.
At this time, Lu Zhen, Zheng Ci, and several ministers also stood up to discuss.
In the end, everyone looked at Ru Yi, and his face was solemn and embarrassed. Originally, Ru Yi was a minister discovered by Zhu Di. Although she could go to Peking to serve and had a lot to do with Liu Chun, he was the first civil servant to surrender to Zhu Di, and Ru Yi was not Liu Chun's person.
But the problem is that Ru Yi and others were detained in the Heavenly Prison. It was Liu Chun's troops who came to the Yangtze River and rescued them, which was equivalent to owing Liu Chun's great favor.
Although he could not interfere with national affairs with human nature, Ru Wei was also in a dilemma.
"Your Majesty, as Duke Wu said, it was indeed too sudden. Can you wait?"
Zhu Di snorted: "You are all rude words, but you can think about it. I will have to bear the consequences in the dynasty in two days."
Zhu Di shook his sleeves angrily and left without even saying "retreat". These people could only stand in the hall. Look at me, let me see you, what's the matter?
After a while, the eunuch Muen came over and said with a smile: "Sir, the emperor has left, you can retreat."
These ministers shook their heads and came out of the palace, one by one, and they didn't know what to say.
Yang Jing grabbed Zhao Mian, "Mr. Zhao, what do you think?"
Zhao Mian sighed, "In my opinion, Lord Liu is indeed comparable to the ancient sages, but ancient sages have always been named after their death! Lord Liu is not yet thirty years old, and I am afraid that he will criticize him for such a high praise!"
Yang Jing also said: "I also think this way, but Your Majesty is firm in his attitude. We have received the favor of Lord Liu again, so we cannot object, you see..."
Zhao Mian thought for a while, "Let's just do this, let's go find Lord Liu and let Lord Liu refuse on his own initiative."
Yang Jing nodded immediately, and the two of them rushed to the Liu Mansion.
But they didn't know that before them, Zhu Di had already sent the handwritten order, but he still asked Zhu Gaochi to deliver it himself, which was fast enough.
"The father's meaning is that the master is not allowed to refuse. No matter what, the master must fight side by side with him. We must hold on!"
Liu Chun was so amazed and laughed, "Your Majesty, Vajra is indestructible, of course you can hold on, but the problem is that my little body is not sprayed to death!"
Zhu Gaochi said, "Master, my disciple thinks that with Master's knowledge and character, it is a sage of the world. If someone dares to question it, the students will debate with them."
Liu Chun praised him with a big look, "Don't brag here. If you have the ability, let your father take it back, will you be able to?"
Zhu Gaochi shook his head embarrassedly, but he couldn't do it.
In fact, Zhu Di mentioned this matter to Liu Chun before, but the problem was that he did not expect it would be so soon.
If you give it another ten years, the situation may be much better and there will be no one-sided objection. If you throw it out now, it is really a bit like boosting growth.
Then why was Zhu Di so anxious?
"After all, it's up to Liu Chun himself to blame!"
Daoyan was drinking tea and chatting with Lao Luo leisurely.
Luo Guanzhong was puzzled, "Sir, how do you say this?"
"What else can I say? After His Majesty entered the capital, he soon appointed Xie Jin to revise the record of Taizu and erase Jianwen for a completely new day. Do you know the key?"
Luo Guanzhong said: "Naturally a dispute over orthodoxism, and the final conclusion of history."
Daoyan nodded, "After all, he is a book writer. He has a lot of thought in his heart and can see clearly. Then it is not difficult to understand the principle of Liu Chun's title of saint."
Luo Guanzhong thought for a while and finally understood.
Zhu Di inherited Zhu Yuanzhang, promoted reforms, and abolished the scholars and officials... which was equivalent to challenging the thousand-year tradition.
Don’t underestimate literati. They hold pens in their hands, and the right and wrong are all based on their mouths.
Let Liu Chun be appointed as a saint and promote science... In the future, as long as he is a subordinate of Liu Chun, he will naturally support the reform. After a hundred years, Zhu Di will not be scolded, and the reform will not be easily overturned.
I have to say that Zhu Laosi’s intention is far-reaching!
Luo Guanzhong explained in confusion: "Sir, since Your Majesty's intention is so deep, why do you still object?"
Daoyan put down the teacup in his hand and said angrily: "Why should he let Liu Chun be sage? Can't I do it?"
OK!
It turned out that this person was not convinced. Daoyan was really angry. He had been having sex with Zhu Di first, but later Liu Chun went to the capital. He and Zhu Di planned the big and small matters.
Thank you for so many years, Liu Chun has taken the lead and became the number one hero in Jingnan. It doesn’t matter, even the saint position has to be given to him!
How bad am I?
Why can't I be sacred?
Luo Guanzhong simply stopped talking. It is true that Daoyan is powerful, but if you want to be a saint, you might as well be a "Novel Saint" for me, Lao Luo!
The two days passed in a blink of an eye, and it was finally the day of morning court. In the past two days, people kept walking around and discussing solutions.
I don’t know anything else, but during the morning court, Liu Chun stood alone, and all the people around him ran aside.
As normal, Liu Chun would not be so pitiful. The problem is that his students have all sent out to promote equal fields, which makes Liu Chun alone and faces a lot of doubtful gazes.
Liu Chun cursed in his heart that he wanted to quit, but he had to quit no matter what... But when he saw these guys' faces, Liu Chun didn't want to let him go. Don't you think I'm not qualified enough? I just want to be a good person!
The competition between the two sides has begun.
After accepting the congratulations from all officials, Zhu Di took the initiative to say, "I said the day before yesterday that I would enthrone Liu Chun as Yan Sheng Gong and take charge of education. What do you think?"
Zhu Di asked three times in a row, and suddenly, starting from the Ministry of Rites, the Censorate, the Imperial College, the Hanlin Academy, the Sixth Institute, the Zhanshi Mansion, the Honglu Temple... one after another, and in a blink of an eye, almost 80% of the officials all knelt down.
In the end, even the few people in the cabinet fell to their knees.
The rest, besides the martial arts, are high-ranking officials such as Ru Yi, and they are almost always against each other.
"Read the comments to Your Majesty." A censor named Wu Zhong said loudly: "If Liu Chun is appointed as Yan Sheng Gong, I would rather be killed in the Golden Palace!"
Chapter completed!
