Chapter 668: Entering and Exiting Chengming

Lin Yanchao doesn't attach much importance to the profit of the Yanjing Times, so he doesn't have the intention of being a monopoly and not sharing it with others. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Lin Yanchao's ambition is to be in the court, and as for the reason why he wants to establish a meritorious journal, the Yenching Times has not only the public desire to serve the public and revitalize culture and education, but also the selfish desire to promote his reputation, cultivate party henchmen, and personal public opinion tools.

Since he is committed to the court, it is impossible for Lin Yanchao to devote so much energy to running newspapers and periodicals, and at present, Xu Huobo and Tao Wangling take care of the publications for themselves, and they don't involve too much energy.

Then Yanjing Times, he doesn't plan to do it himself, it's good to be able to implement his own ideas, and then hand it over, if he can entrust a person he can trust, then it's great.

This Lu Wanjia is undoubtedly a good candidate.

Lin Yanchao chatted with Lu Wanjia for a few words, he did not have the same talent as Tao Wangling, but he was better than Tao Wangling in business for generations, familiar with business, and had connections in Yanjing, so in running this Yanjing Times, at least better than Tao Wangling.

So Lin Yanchao agreed to Lu Wanjia's invitation on the spot, and also set the framework of the Yenching Times.

Written by Tang Xianzu, supplemented by Guo Zhengyu, and then assisted by Lu Wanjia's general affairs accountant, Qu Hengjiang, the backbone of the Yanjing Times was finally built. Lin Yanchao can also be the big shopkeeper.

Everyone discussed again, and the first edition of the Yanjing Times was tried to be released within a few days.

Everyone is very confident, and Lin Yanchao is even more confident. Lin Yanchao's confidence lies in the fact that the Yenching Times is against the mainstream books, after all, it is difficult for most people to sit quietly and read a book most of the time, but if they want to read the newspaper for a day, it is casual.

At that time, newspapers were like today's Weibo and WeChat, which opened a precedent for fragmented reading by the whole people.

It must be admitted that deep reading is certainly better than light reading, but light reading is better than no reading at all. With the promotion of national education in Beijing, the literacy rate of the people in Beijing has been improved, supplemented by new media such as newspapers and magazines, and the wisdom of the people has been opened step by step, so the great cause of culture and education can be expected.

This is Lin Yanchao's plan.

The next day, the vote for the court was drawn up, and Zhang Juzheng suggested that the enrollment staff be expanded and the establishment of a free school should be set up in parallel. Zhang Juzheng meant that the expansion of the number of recruits could be implemented throughout the country, and it happened that the clearing of acres of land was very effective, and the cleared land could be distributed to the new students.

As for the 100,000 taels approved by the Ministry of Households, Zhang Juzheng also thought that it would be discussed again in the name of the difficulty of the national treasury.

Although it was discounted, Lin Yanchao already felt that it was acceptable. Similarly, the little emperor was also satisfied, after all, it was the first time that his own proposal was adopted.

If the little emperor changed in the past, he would be very happy, but this time the little emperor was not happy, because after Zhang Juzheng finished writing the vote, he fell ill.

After Zhang Juzheng fell ill, where did the court go, not to mention the hundred officials, even the emperor himself was the six gods and no master. From this day on, Lin Yanchao also joined the post of living official and officially became the adviser to the Son of Heaven.

However, although he is an adviser minister, he also has to do a good job as a living officer.

When the emperor entered the last three palaces, the female official, that is, Tong Shi, was in charge of the living affairs of the palace. For example, this time the little emperor came to Concubine Gong in private, if it weren't for the records of Tong History, the little emperor would still have to pay the bill.

And Lin Yanchao is an outsider note, and he followed the emperor in and out of the first three halls, as well as Wenhua, Wuying Palace, etc., but in principle, he was not allowed to cross the Qianqing Gate. In addition to not being allowed to cross the Qianqing Gate, the rest of the place is where the emperor goes, and even if people go to the toilet, they have to follow and hand the paper on the side, which is really a proper Son of Heaven approaching.

Before dawn that day, Lin Yanchao came to the living room early.

The living room is located next door to the official duty house, and the living room has a principal, pen post style and other officials, they have long known the news that Lin Yanchao has made up for the living officer, and they all greet Lin Yanchao when they meet.

The principal, pen post and other officials also understood that Lin Yanchao was the confidant minister of the Son of Heaven at the moment, and he immediately offered his courtesy.

The director of the living hall said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, the attendant is left and right, recorded by the pen and the division, in and out of Chengming, can be called Huaxuan, the future will be superior, not promoted, in and out of the book, the old pavilion is as easy as a hand." I'm here to congratulate you first. ”

Lin Yanchao couldn't help but smile when he heard this, the residence of the Son of Heaven in ancient times was called Mingtang, and the left and right roads of Mingtang were called Chengming, which means that after inheriting Mingtang, entering and exiting Chengming is the same as carrying a pen on the head of the mantle, and it is also used to call the living officer.

After the main thing was finished, all the pen posts also said some flattering words, and the meaning of the stammering was very obvious.

It is said that the living officials have no real power, but because the emperor's living notes are very secretive, non-Japanese officials are not allowed to participate in the notes. Therefore, the ministers were all important ministers of the cabinet and the unanimous trust of the emperor.

Indeed, as the chief said, the magistrate can not be promoted in the future according to the rules of officialdom. Therefore, these principals, who sharpened their heads at the beginning of the pen post style, wanted to enter the living room, but also to be able to talk about the living officials in one or two days and get appreciation.

This is the same as Lin Yanchao's original intention of serving as a Japanese speaker and showing his face next to the Son of Heaven.

Because the younger brother of the Son of Heaven and the younger brother of the Son of Heaven are both very awesome existences.

The officials flattered all kinds of people on the spot, and even Lin Yanchao couldn't bear it: "I'm ashamed, I can't afford to say this, but I still thank you." ”

After Lin Yanchao finished speaking, the officials were still flattering, and at this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, but when they saw Wang Jiaping walking into the living room, all the officials changed their expressions to another level: "I've seen Mr. Wang." ”

Lin Yanchao also said: "I've seen Senior Wang." ”

Wang Jiaping glanced at it and understood, and immediately straightened his face: "Zong Hai, what are you talking about with these people, you are on duty for the first time today, it must not be late, and you will not soon present the living book." ”

When Wang Jiaping said this, the officials not only did not have the slightest anger, but immediately presented the living book to the two.

Lin Yanchao saw that the living book was blank.

Wang Jiaping explained: "This living book is just a herbal book, and as a living note official, our job is to record the words and deeds of the Son of Heaven and compile the living book of the wheel notes. After the daily check-out, you will record everything you have seen and heard, sign your name and date, and then put it in the iron cabinet in the library. ”

"In the following year, there will be Hanlin who will write the herbs he has written as the original, and then submit it to the Hanlin Bachelor for reading, and this will be the original book."

Lin Yanchao was stunned.

The officials on the side handed over two volumes to Lin Yanchao and Wang Jiaping.

Wang Jiaping and Lin Yanchao instructed: "The ancient people, the left history remembers, the right history records, so prevent mistakes, and show the queen king." You and I are on duty today, and in the future you remember your words and I remember things, so there will be no bifurcation. ”

Lin Yanchao immediately said yes.

After the two took the booklet and pen, they went to the Qianqing Gate together to wait for the little emperor's royal drive.
