Chapter 537: Something Happened
After receiving the tooth card and the confession, the edict has been issued, and Lin Yanchao is officially appointed as the Japanese speaker. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
According to the rules of the Hanlin Academy, after the Hanlin Jinri lectured, he first went to the cabinet to thank several elders.
So on that day, Lin Yanchao put on a unicorn suit, hung a tooth tag on the leather belt around his waist, and then went straight to the Forbidden City. Looking at the long-lost yellow tiles and red walls of the Forbidden City, Lin Yanchao felt an inexplicable feeling, if he really wants to say a line at this moment, it is that I, Lin Yanchao, are back.
After several access controls in the palace, Lin Yanchao was released after checking the tooth card, and he didn't return to the Forbidden City for half a year, but the access control was changed.
Walked to the Wenyuan Pavilion opposite the door of the Wenhua Palace, and after checking the tooth card again, Lin Yanchao arrived at the Wenyuan Pavilion. Wenyuan Pavilion was full of old acquaintances, and when everyone met, they were surprised for a while, and then came up to say goodbye to each other. Lin Yanchao was also very happy to see a few old faces, and when he came to Wenyuan Pavilion again, he also had a feeling of returning home.
Everyone greeted each other a few words, which was to congratulate Lin Yanchao on his appointment as a Japanese speaker, and Lin Yanchao was humble a few more words.
After that, I went to the middle hall to thank you, and presented the sermon that Lin Yanchao would give a few days later.
Before this sermon is preached, it should be presented to the ministers for their own perusal.
After reading it in person, the cabinet ministers thought that the lecture could be taught, so they could give a lecture to the Son of Heaven, and after the lecture, they had to go back to the cabinet to talk to the cabinet ministers and report how well they had given the lecture to the Son of Heaven today. At the end of the year, the Japanese lecturer will also send a copy of all the sermons that have been preached into the cabinet, and then decorate them as tribute.
Lin Yanchao stood outside Zhang Juzheng's cabinet duty room with a sermon in his hand, and after a while, the cabinet official came out and said to Lin Yanchao, the old man of the pavilion will not see you if he is on important business, and as for the sermon, he presented it to the second assistant.
It is not surprising that Zhang Juzheng did not see him, after all, he had seen it before, so there was no need to repeat the words again. So after Lin Yanchao asked Zhang Juzheng to be in the room, he left and went to Zhang Siwei's room.
Zhang Siwei's confidential book Dong Zhongshu, seeing Lin Yanchao's surprised look, stepped forward and grabbed Lin Yanchao's hand and said enthusiastically: "Brother Zonghai, if you don't see you for a day, you don't see you every other autumn, but you want to suffer me if you don't see me for half a year." ”
Lin Yanchao felt a little sick to his stomach at the bottom of his heart, when did his friendship with Dong Zhongshu become so deep.
By the way, when he had the opportunity to speak in Jinri before, Dong Zhongshu was also so enthusiastic, and later he offended Zhang Juzheng, and when people saw him, they took a detour and left.
has been in the officialdom for a long time, and Lin Yanchao is naturally used to this set of hot and cold worlds.
Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "You're welcome, I'm here to see Zhongtang." ”
"I know, the elder is busy with political affairs, please Zong Hai, you go in and sit down first."
So Lin Yanchao was invited to sit in Zhang Siwei's duty room, and Dong Zhongshu personally served tea and water to Lin Yanchao, which was very affectionate.
Lin Yanchao didn't sit for long, and Zhang Siwei summoned him.
I haven't seen him for half a year, Zhang Siwei is still like that, although his body under the python suit is a little lean, he looks like he can't help but be weak.
Zhang Siwei smiled when he saw him: "Zonghai has arrived, and the relatives of this province have returned to Beijing, and the dust has not been washed, so why don't you rest for a few more days." ”
Lin Yanchao couldn't help but be moved, when he was in the cabinet before, because he was not treated by Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Siwei had never given himself a good look, but this time he was so kind.
Lin Yanchao said: "If you go back to the middle hall, the lower officials will bear the emperor's order, and they dare not slack off. ”
Zhang Siwei nodded and said: "Zong Hai is diligent in state affairs, if only there were a few more ministers like you in the imperial court, come, let's sit down and talk in detail." ”
After speaking, Zhang Siwei left the seat behind the table and sat side by side with Lin Yanchao on the two official hat chairs against the wall in the duty room.
Sitting side by side, this is almost an equal sitting, Lin Yanchao said secretly, strange, strange, even if he is promoted to a Japanese official, but as Zhang Siwei's second-hand assistant, he doesn't have to be so polite to himself. Wouldn't that be a bargain?
Zhang Siwei asked Lin Yanchao a few words about going home to save his relatives, and after Lin Yanchao answered them one by one, he then presented the sermon.
After reading the sermon, Zhang Siwei praised: "Okay, it's not a verbal article, it's actually a study of the world." Zong Hai is really talented. ”
"Zhongtang, I really don't dare to be." Lin Yanchao knew the truth of courtesy, and dealt with it cautiously.
Zhang Siwei put the sermon aside, and then said: "Zong Hai is a Japanese lecturer this time, and he can be regarded as a close minister around the saint, in addition to preaching national rules and regulations for the Son of Heaven, in addition to government affairs, he also needs to know the way to serve the king. ”
"Dare to ask what is the way to serve the king in the middle hall?"
Zhang Siwei said slowly: "When I ascended the throne at the beginning of the first century, it was a big book, and I waited for the ministers of the foreign court, and only the ministers were given by the Son of Heaven, and there were only a few ministers. For example, Yuan Fu gave 'house protection', the second assistant Lu Guilin gave 'concentric sandwich', and Liuqing gave 'Zheng's own rate' each, and as for the six ministers, they were given the words 'blame Chen Shan'. ”
Hearing the words of reproaching Chen Shan, Lin Yanchao was stunned in his heart and guessed what Zhang Siwei was going to say.
No wonder, courtesy must be demanded by others. At this moment, it is useless to shirk, and it seems that he has something to do this time.
Lin Yanchao simply smiled and said, "Zhongtang has something to tell the lower officials, and the lower officials will do their best." ”
Zhang Siwei pinched his beard and said with a smile: "It's easy to talk to Zong Hai, this matter is related to the Zongmiao Sheji, the bloodline of the Heavenly Family, Zong Hai needs to do his best." ”
"Where do you come from?" Lin Yanchao asked.
"This." Zhang Siwei seemed to consider his tone, and then he explained the reason.
At this moment, he is in the Cining Palace, which is thousands of steps away from the cabinet room.
The Son of Heaven's biological mother, Empress Dowager Li, is sitting on the top at the moment, and as for the Son of Heaven, the little emperor himself sits under her.
Empress Dowager Li's face at the moment is a little iron-blue, as for the little emperor himself, his hands are pressed on his knees, his brows are furrowed, and he looks like a naughty boy who has done something wrong in front of his mother.
The smoke on the golden beetle incense burner is thick.
Not far from the two of them, on a futon used by Empress Dowager Li for worshipping Buddha on weekdays, a palace maid was kneeling.
The palace maid kneeling on the futon looked beautiful, her face was hanging down, and her hair fell down to her cheeks, looking pitiful. The palace maid's abdomen was slightly bulging, and she looked as if she was pregnant.
At this time, the little emperor's eyes looked at the palace maid, and the palace maid raised her head and looked at her.
The palace maid's eyes faintly revealed a bit of expectation and longing, hoping that the other party could remember the grace of that night, how gentle the high Ninety-Five Venerable was at that time, and the smile was as warm as the sun.
But there was no emotion in the other party's eyes, as if looking at a stranger, and gradually the other party's eyes became colder.
The palace maid was startled, and her face turned pale for a moment.
The palace maid lowered her head again, her hand stroked her stomach, but the tears in her eyes couldn't be suppressed and rolled down her clothes, and a low sobbing sound echoed in Cining Palace. At this moment, there were more than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs standing in Cining Palace, but no one dared to make the slightest sound, and they were all silently staring at the floor tiles.
