After listening to Lin Yanchao's words, Zhang Whale on the side pretended to be surprised and said to the little emperor: "Your Majesty, the ministers didn't know that Hai Rui still had such talents, and the ministers have always only known his integrity. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The little emperor showed that you were really lonely: "What a fuss, if it weren't for Hai Rui's talent, how could the first emperor reuse him, he can not only suppress Haoqiang, but also control the water, this Hai Rui is really both clear and capable, and the minister of the pillars." ”

Speaking of Hai Jui's exploits, Lin Yanchao could not tell the emperor what the Huangpu River would mean to China in two hundred years!

What Hai Jui did has been remembered to this day. If the little emperor is a traverser like Lin Yanchao, then when he knows that Hai Rui's merit is ten times what he has done for the Ming Dynasty today.

The little emperor sighed: "This study of merit is really the study of application in the world. Science advocates righteousness and debasement, so it is wrong to talk about the ethics of officials than the merits of officials. ”

"Back then, the first emperor raised Hai Rui's incorruptibility, and his intention was to straighten up all wrongs, and to use Hai Jui's incorruptibility as a straight, and to eliminate the style of officialdom. However, I listened to the learning of Qing's deeds, and in the future, whether the imperial court will take officials based on political achievements, depose officials who neglect government affairs, and do not act will make those who are wrong. ”

This emperor actually knows how to draw inferences.

These words are Lin Yanchao's subtext. Putting political performance first to evaluate officials, rather than putting officials' integrity and character first, is the difference between merit and science.

If this continues, the little emperor will worship under Lin Yanchao's door.

Seeing the little emperor ask, Lin Yanchao pondered for a moment and replied, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is impossible to generalize. ”

The little emperor asked, "Why not?" ”

Lin Yanchao said: "Lao Tzu Zeng Yun is not virtuous, so that the people will not fight." Your Majesty regards Hai Jui as incorruptible, and I don't know how many officials are pretending to be honest and catering to the wishes, or officials who are not as incorruptible as Hai Jui, are not advisable? Respecting one person and degrading the world is not virtuous but hurtful virtuous. ”

The little emperor couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "If it weren't for Lin Qing's words, I almost missed it, so to say that, don't you say that it is my mistake." ”

Lin Yanchao said: "Your Majesty, this is not the case, if it is politically harmonious, then the country does not need to be virtuous." It is precisely because of the country's shortcomings that it is necessary to act directly and wrongly. ”

"It is indeed not a good law to judge officials by their political achievements, but in terms of ethics, when talking about the rights and wrongs of officials, there is no perfect person in the world, but it is taken advantage of by those who deceive the world and steal their reputation. Judging the merits of officials by their political achievements, at least the number can be determined, and it is easy for the court to learn from it, and it is also easy for the people to learn from it. ”

When the little emperor heard this, he said happily: "Lin Qingjia's words are really enlightening, and I have gained something today." ”

Seeing that the little emperor agreed with the merit study, Lin Yanchao also shouted when he saw it: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”

This exhortation not only did not let the little emperor punish him, but also sold the dry goods of his work to the Son of Heaven by the way.

Seeing that the little emperor is also gradually appreciating and agreeing with the merit, then he can be more subtle in the future. What is the Emperor Division, that's what we're doing now.

If the little emperor is also a believer in his own merit, then with the Son of Heaven taking the lead, he can try to challenge the status of science and mind after learning merit, and he will not be able to run away from the status of Confucianism in the future.

But at the moment, we can't get carried away by a momentary victory, it's still important to get down to business.

Lin Yanchao said: "The study of merit is the study of the world, just as the minister recommended Hai Rui to His Majesty, not because of his incorruptibility, but because of his ability." Hai Jui does have something unkind, which is both his disadvantage and his strength. ”

"Your Majesty is a holy monarch, and all the talents in the world are used by Your Majesty, but only in terms of establishing a righteous school, I don't know who else in the world can be more competent than Hai Rui."

Lin Yanchao's sycophant little emperor was very comfortable, and he said immediately: "What Lin Qing's family said is reasonable, even if you recommend people, but this sea pen holder must be rectified by me first, and then I am willing to take up this matter of establishing a righteous school, not that I am unwilling to use him." ”

"I can't ask Hai Rui to be the waiter of this Ministry of Rites. Where is my face? ”

Zhang Whale also said on the side: "That's right, this Hai Lao'er doesn't know how to lift, how can Your Majesty deign to invite Hai Rui to be an official." ”

The little emperor paced: "That's it, what about a little face?" If Haiqing is really a virtuous person, why don't I look at the thatched house. I ordered Your Excellency to order Hai Rui to be the attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and the governor of Yixue, so he will not dare to resist the order. ”

Zhang Whale said: "Your Majesty, if someone else is fine, but this Hai Lao'er is such a straight person, it is not good that he will really resist the decree." ”

The little emperor snorted and said, "If one holy decree doesn't work, there will be two, and if two can't work, there will be three, and I won't believe it." ”

Lin Yanchao said: "Your Majesty, according to the minister's opinion, you don't need to make a decree from your Excellency, Your Majesty can first make a central decree, first praise Hai Rui for his loyalty and talent, and then let the minister probe Hai Rui's mouth." ”

The holy decree issued by the cabinet should be clearly instructed to all officials, if Hai Jui refuses to resign, the little emperor will undoubtedly be slapped in the face in public, which is very painful.

Of course, with Hai Rui's style, most of them may not dare to resist the decree, after all, the king is a minister, but there is always this risk.

But the decree is different, from the emperor's private person, Lin Yanchao also took the initiative to listen to Hai Rui's tone for the emperor, so as to reduce the risk of being slapped in public.

The little emperor said with satisfaction: "Lin Qing's family can really share my worries. I was also worried that if I made a holy decree and forced Hai Rui to be a servant of the Ministry of Rites, he would always think that I was forcing him to become an official. In this way, Ren Cai's good intentions have been lost, and it is better to have Lin Qing's family go. ”

Lin Yanchao said: "It is an honor for the minister to share the worries of His Majesty, and the other minister has a reluctant request." ”

The little emperor smiled: "Even if you say it." ”

Lin Yanchao said: "The minister wants to ask Your Majesty to draft this edict." ”

The little emperor laughed and said: "Lin Qing's family is supposed to do this, if you don't write it, who else can you give it to." ”

Lin Yanchao said yes, and immediately drafted an edict for the Son of Heaven on the small table where he was originally going to punish himself for writing a plea.

Lin Yanchao paused and passed Hai Rui's life experience from his mind, and after typing the draft, he wrote it down with a pen.

The little emperor saw Lin Yanchao solemnly and ink, the pen fell into the wind and rain, the paper was full of clouds and smoke, and a thousand words were made.

After Lin Yanchao finished writing, the little emperor took the edict that had not dried and read it, and praised it before halfway through: "When today's talent is one stone, Lin Qing's family lives alone in eight buckets." This article is truly brilliant, grandiose, and deeply moving. Not to mention Hai Rui, even I couldn't help but be moved when I read this article. ”

The little emperor praised while watching, and finally covered the scroll and said to Lin Yanchao: "Lin Qing's family, you know the name of Hai Rui, I am afraid that this edict will be famous all over the world." ”

Lin Yanchao didn't get the slightest color, but lowered his head and said, "That is also Your Majesty's grace." ”

The little emperor laughed when he heard this, and without hesitation, he stamped his seal on the medallion.

Lin Yanchao looked at this edict and said in his heart, so the possibility of persuading Hai Rui greatly increased.
