Section 22 "Talks on the Moon"

Seeing that the fourth brother was blocking himself from stepping forward to speak again, and the second daughter took the opportunity to leave, the young man was a little anxious, "Fourth brother, I finally ...... it"

"Second brother, why are you so anxious? It's counterproductive, and if you are caught by Yushi, then you and I will have to be reprimanded, and we didn't let the eldest brother laugh on the side in vain, and the fourth child is also staring at us now,......" The young man in purple glanced at the other party, "I arranged for someone to follow, let's see where we are going first." ”

Only then did the young man turn his anger into joy, "It's still the third brother who is witty, and the eldest brother seems to be very peaceful during this time, but it's the ninth brother, hehe, I just held a coming-of-age ceremony this year, and I'm going to make a name for myself?" Concubine Mei seems to be very active, the day before yesterday, her mother was still saying that Concubine Mei went to her father's east study to send bird's nest soup, and her father was very happy, this Concubine Mei is used to pleasing her father,......"

"It's just a waste of effort, my father only values two things now, one is to be able to share his worries and solve problems in court affairs, and the other is to cultivate his mind and cultivate his temperament, prolong his life, this kind of tongue desire, my father has long quit it, but it is just a matter of seeing that he has not been cold." King Li smiled contemptuously, "But you and I really should learn how to make my father happy like Concubine Mei, of course, not to learn to send soup and other boring things,......"

"Oh?" The young man straightened up, "What do you think?" ”

"Well, this poetry will be such a thing, of course you should go, expand your reputation, the more the merrier, but I feel that my father's health has not been good this year, so I put more attention on court affairs, if I can share my father's worries, it may be much better."

The purple-clothed young man glanced at his brother, although his brother looked suave on the surface, he was not as lustful as outsiders imagined, it was nothing more than to lower the vigilance of the eldest brother and his mother, Emperor Xu.

However, he also knows that this effect may not be very good, but it can resolve the hostility of the other party as much as possible, and it is better than nothing, anyway, the emperor of the Great Zhou has never cared much about this aspect, but more about whether you have the ability to sit on this throne.

Emperor Yuan Xi was regarded as the prodigal son of the flowers, and he once lingered in the flower street and willow lane for three days? But he became famous by fighting to quell the rebellion of the Jingxiang refugees? Later, on the orders of Emperor Tianping, he investigated and dealt with the major case of embezzlement of ink by the Henan criminal envoy? In the end, it won the recognition of Emperor Tianping,

In this way, Emperor Yuanxi stood out from the seven sons of his father Emperor Tianping, and grew from the eldest son to the emperor, and he should have been the successor - the late empress of Emperor Tianping? is also Emperor Yuanxi's half-brother, but he can only end gloomily.

Now his father, the late queen, has no children? And although Emperor Xu is the imperial concubine, the status of the imperial concubine and the queen is not the same? The status that the eldest brother Shouwang gained by relying on his mother was nothing.

At least in the minds of the two brothers, King Fu and King Li, the difference in this advantage is negligible, or even negligible? His mother has a good status in the eyes of his father? It's nothing more than how old the eldest brother grew first.

The young man in purple is naturally Zhang Ji, the king of rites that Feng Ziying has dealt with, and the young man who seems to be a little slippery is his mother, Zhang Qi, the king of fortune.

"Easier said than done, fourth brother, do you have some ideas when you say that?" Fuwang Zhang Qi has already packed up some careful thoughts about this matter? Your eyes have become solemn? "Concubine Mei has applied to her father to let Lao Jiu come out of the Guozi Prison and go to Qingtan Academy to study, what do you mean by this?"

Although Guozijian is a bit of a formality now? The reputation is far less than in the early years, but after all, it is an official school of the imperial court, including King Shou, King Fu, King Li and King Lu, all of whom have studied in Guozijian, because the children of the Heavenly Family are not allowed to participate in scientific examinations and squeeze out the opportunity of ordinary scholars, so studying in Guozijian is more of a kind of hope and friendship.

But now that Lao Jiu has just become an adult, he is going to study at Qingtan Academy, which is a bit intriguing.

And Qingtan Academy is not a place to travel and recuperate, if you don't have some real talent and learning, you will only become a laughing stock among the best of these scholars.

These scholars who are above the top will not think highly of you just because you are a child of the heavenly family, maybe some of them will be pretentious and will have the idea of stepping on your reputation to go up.

"Hmph, what can you do?" Zhang Jimo rubbed his chin, "Guozijian has been getting worse and worse in the past 20 years, and its reputation is not good. It must be called the four major academies, two north and two south, among which Qingtan Academy is the most popular, and Qingtan Academy is still a little different from other academies, I don't know if you have noticed it, second brother, since February this year, Qingtan Academy has imitated the "Internal Reference" run by the Hanlin Academy and also set up a publication, called "Yuedan Talk", and hired Feng Ziying as the honorary editor-in-chief. ”

""Yuedan Talk"?" Zhang Qi was a little surprised, "If this "Yuedan Talk" imitates "Internal Reference", is it to use current politics as a discussion and missionary?" Well, is it to follow the comments of the Hou Han Runan Xu Shao brothers? ”

"It should be a little bit interesting in this regard, this publication is a monthly magazine, published on the first day of each month, since it is to imitate the "Internal Reference", it will definitely involve current affairs, but I have read two issues, I have to say that Qingtan Academy is still very well controlled in this regard, and the content discussed is basically something that has been implemented or worth discussing in the current government,......

Zhang Ji thoughtfully, "I don't know if it's the instruction of Xiao Feng's revision, or Zhou Yongchun's control, in short, this "Yuedan Talk" is very interesting, there are some suggestions and suggestions on the current policies of the government, mainly the local government, and some of the policies in the six ministries, it is said that there are only two issues, each issue is only two or three hundred copies, but the six ministries and the northern Zhili prefectures, and even the prefects of these prefectures and counties like Wanping and Daxing have begun to take the initiative to subscribe. ”

"The court didn't react to this?" Zhang Qi hesitated and said: "The newspapers and periodicals run by such folk academies are not allowed to involve current affairs, so isn't "Today's News" never involved in current affairs?" ”

"Internal Reference" is run by the Hanlin Academy, and the editors are all Guanzheng Jinshi, and the person who publishes the article is either Guanzheng Jinshi or an official who must be anonymous, of course, it is only anonymous to the outside world, and the editorial department still knows it, which is also for the imperial court to consult, so this "Internal Reference" is a semi-official newspaper.

"Today's News" is different, it is a purely private newspaper, and when it was declared to the Ministry of Rites and Shuntianfu, it was already stated that it was not involved in current affairs, but was just a purely literary and commercial newspaper, so there was no problem.

But "Yuedan Commentary" is a little different, it is run by Qingtan Academy, and most of the commentators are students and teachers in the East Garden of Qingtan Academy, but most of them do not involve the imperial court's plans, and are more specific policies in some places.

After all, Qingtan Academy is the current Qi Pavilion Lao and the current Zhongshu Department is said to be the foundation of the newly established official Yingzhen of the Ministry of Commerce in the future, and it is not easy to intervene when there is no obvious problem, and people now take the initiative to send it to the Ministry of Rites in advance when each issue is released, which is equivalent to filing.

"I asked Gu Bingqian, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, who said that the "Yuedan Talk" is the advice of the scholars, the scholars are worried about national affairs, and the loyalty and patriotism are commendable, and the Ministry of Rites should allow it, not to mention that each issue of "Yuedan Talk" Qingtan Academy promises to be sent to the Ministry of Rites for the record in advance."

Zhang Ji always felt that if a folk academy like Qingtan Academy could comment on current affairs, then it would be a bit like a second metropolitan procuratorate.

"Fourth brother, does this "Yuedan Talk" have anything to do with Feng Ziying?" Zhang Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, a little more cold, "This guy has been invited to our activities a few times, and I never participated, but this kind of newspaper is extremely active and enthusiastic, so "Today's News" also has a lot to do with him, plus this "Internal Reference", what do you say this guy wants?" ”

"Hmph, it's nothing more than power and profit, "Today's News" is for profit, I heard that those businessmen have to pay silver money every month in order to publish the text of "Today's News" to promote their goods, it is said that this is called advertising fees, as for "Internal Reference", it goes without saying, it must be to leave an impression in front of the cabinet and the six ministers, the opening of the sea has no part of him, he is about to be released, this out, don't think about moving in two or three years, Yonglong's eight-year new science and technology scholars are lively, Three years later, it will be the time of the hustle and bustle of the new science and technology scholars in the eleventh year of Yonglong, who will remember him? He didn't use this way to remind the princes of the court, what else could he do? ”

Zhang Ji saw it very clearly, "As for this "Yuedan Commentary", I heard that he didn't participate much and put up a name, well, he is also a well-known figure in Qingtan Academy, leave a named editor-in-chief to remind latecomers of his existence." ”

"Then now that Lao Jiu has gone to Qingtan Academy, I'm afraid he is going to the influence of Qingtan Academy, right?" Zhang Qi's tone became more and more cold, "Concubine Mei is scheming, she said that Wenchen never participates in the affairs of the Heavenly Family, she wants to use her son to cultivate the relationship with future civil officials from an early age, so that she can borrow strength in the future?" ”

Zhang Ji smiled secretly in his heart, his brother reacted quickly enough to realize this.

The problem is that he realized this, but he couldn't intervene, he was only fourteen years old, and he and his brother were already over twenty, so it was impossible to go to Qingtan Academy to study, and with the state of mind of his two brothers, he couldn't read at this time.

"It should be so, my father should also understand this, so I haven't let go, but I don't know why I agreed to Lao Jiu to go to Qingtan Academy to study this time." Zhang Ji rubbed his cheeks, "We can't guess what my father thinks." ”
