Chapter One Thousand Four Hundred and Twenty-eight: A Guide for the Ming Dynasty Chief Envoy to Be an Official!
The quiet high-walled courtyards and spacious pavilions and houses together form the territory of power. Just like the vermilion gate, it is definitely not something that ordinary people can have or dare to have. Even the truly wealthy maritime merchants, in this prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty,
When I was young, I didn't dare to go beyond the basic requirements of food, clothing, housing and transportation. Because although the Ming Dynasty's laws seemed vague and loose, they were often ignored. But if you really asked about it and reached out to investigate, it would crush the place to death.
The mighty Taishan!
"Gathering of Mr. Li Wenxi? Mr. Pu An, Li Chun? I seem to have heard from my master Liu Daxiagong that when he was young, he studied under Mr. Pu An as a disciple and respected him very much..."
Shi Wende's eyes flashed. He only knew so much about Li Chun, the first-class scholar in Tianshun's first year. The door of officialdom had always been open only to him, a descendant of a maritime merchant.
And he was able to shamelessly call Liu Daxia "Master" because he relied on the fact that Liu Daxia proctored the Zhejiang Renzi Science and Technology Provincial Examination two years ago. He barely passed the exam among the 104 Zhejiang candidates selected from more than 800 candidates.
At the end of the early 100s.
Then, relying on the official status of "Ji Ren" and calling Liu Daxia "Master", he could find a way to use the wealth of his maritime merchant family and try his best to spend it to make Zhejiang Youbu Chief Envoy
Meet him once in your free time. Otherwise, no matter how much money he has, with his family’s secretly dirty maritime background, he will not be able to get on the “Fantai” line, and he will not even be able to get in!
"..."
At this moment, in front of the "Wang Phan Terrace" where he was in charge of a province and reading "The Collection of Lord Le Van Tu". Shi Wende stood in the court, "leaning down and listening, his expression became more respectful and courteous, and he did not dare to say a word."
To remind him. He suppressed all distracting thoughts and waited patiently, waiting for the feudal lord to pay attention to him.
But Si Wangzhe, the right-hand chief envoy, always concentrated on reading the "Collection of Le Wen Xi Gong" as if he were reading a profound good book. Sometimes when he encountered some interesting points after careful consideration, he would even read them.
He would whisper out loud, just loud enough for Shi Wende to hear.
""Send Zhang Shangshu to return to Nan County as official"... I have bowed to Nan Ji for a long time, loving the king and worrying about the country and being loyal with all my heart. The Sima on the deer stele in Xijing, the people in the east are wearing armor..."
"Well, Nanjun is Jingzhou. Jiezhen Nanjing, Nanjing, official to Shangshu, surnamed Zhang... Oh! Yes! It is Zhang Chun, Zhang Zhizhong Gong, the Minister of the Ministry of War of Nanjing who became an official in the fifth year of Jingtai (1454)... Zhang Gong and Li Gong...
We are all from the same hometown of Huguang, and Zhang Gong has always supported the younger ones... With such a relationship, it is natural to write a poem to say goodbye!"
The right chief minister Wang Zhe nodded slightly, and connected Zhang Chun and Li Chun together in the network of memories. In this network of scholar-officials of "township party, same year, cronies, old friends, disciples", this is the first
The most common and usually the most stable "township party".
Wang Zhe was born in the northwest of Shanxi Province. He once served as the Chief Envoy of Shaanxi Province and participated in politics. This was his first time to serve as an official in the south. He was not so clear about the relationship network of the southern scholar-bureaucrats, so he needed to read the official rumors.
"Collected Works" is a good supplement to the interpersonal common sense of southern officialdom.
Otherwise, if he is from a noble family in the south, these relationships should be familiar to him. His elders in the officialdom have told him about them since he was a child, and then completely memorizing them will become an instinct. In this way, every time he makes friends with other scholar-bureaucrats, he will quickly learn about them.
Sort out each other's network, connect through a certain line, and continue to expand each other's "cobweb" of connections!
"Sending Xu Qi back to the province in the same year... The fifth chapter of the Chuanguang Jutai chapter... The sea green beetles enter the mountains... The blue and white flowers are clear and the moon should pity me, and the joint team is determined to face the imperial screen..."
"The fifth in the Taiwan Chapter? Over the Mountain?... Let me think about it, Li Gong was the number one scholar in the first year of Tianshun, and Xu Qi, the fifth in the Taiwan Chapter, was born in the land of Wuyue... Oh! It turned out to be Xu Jingwen Gong from Hangzhou Prefecture!
Mr. Xu is from a prominent family in Zhejiang Province. He has worked hard in Yuhang for generations and passed down his literary and educational virtues to the family... Well, if there is another provincial examination, I will take a good look at the Xu family's children... Ha! Mr. Liu had already held it once the year before last, so there is no need for me to bother too much.
Already…”
Wang Zhe stroked his beard lightly, his face thoughtful. This connected a prominent local family in Zhejiang with Li Chun through the friendship of "same age". At this moment, through this "Collection of Li Wenxi Gong", Li Chun was clarified
Chun's relationship network is sorting out Liu Daxia's relationship network.
Liu Daxia, Zhejiang's left chief envoy, was his predecessor in charge of Zhejiang. He had been in charge of Zhejiang for two years and held another provincial examination. The Yuhang Xu family had the same background as Liu Daxia's mentor. If there were disciples of the right age, as long as their knowledge was not too bad, they would also
You will definitely be admitted to the Juren Examination.
These are all unspoken rules of this era. "Heaven and earth are kings, relatives and masters", which are closely related to each other at all levels, and have nothing to do with the integrity of the scholar-bureaucrats. If local officials want to carry out their work, the first thing they must do is to
Only by combing through the gentry network one by one can we decide to what extent we should be merciful, how far we should enforce the law, and whether we should resort to thunderous measures.
""Tufan Jingzhou Prefecture Li Renyi"... Jia Jiao was in trouble with a big traitor in the dynasty. He had known that Han Zi was banished to Yangshan. Guhuan was lucky enough to inherit the turtle group, and he was called a heavyweight to pay homage to the jade class. Gangjun Caizhe traveled to Japan, and the beast
When I was young, I was out in the fields. Who could sleep with flies on the wall? Gao Li's family mountain was watching..."
"Haha! Fortunately, the intestinal loop was obtained. The benevolence of the year of the beast is there, and the fly is on the wall... This is a curse, so happy, so happy! In the second year of Jingtai, Li Renyi and Li Shijie, the censors of the two capitals, were not afraid of violence and impeached Yu Qianyu Zhongsu Gong.
Shi Heng, a powerful minister, was demoted to the county magistrate of Xiangyang... It was not until Shi Heng died for rebellion and Xianzong succeeded to the throne that Duke Li Shijie returned to the post of magistrate of Jingzhou Prefecture... This poem is enough to reveal Duke Li's character and he can be called an adult.
The gentleman is pure and honest, let the villain rape Qiqiqi!..."
For this poem "cursing traitors and sycophant warriors", the chief minister Wang Zhe applauded, with a hearty smile on his face. It is obvious that Li Renyi and Li Chun are "cronies" against Shi Heng. And in
Among all online relationships, "cronies" who have expressed their political leanings together and have the same enemies are extremely strong, and will even connect the descendants of the two families for generations.

Due to his military merits in defeating Oala, he was promoted to Wu Qinghou, the chief military officer of the fifth military camp. Later, he welcomed the emperor.
Yingzong put in a lot of effort in his "rebellion to seize the gate", and in the end, in order to stabilize Yingzong's power, he murdered Yu Qian, who had promoted him.
In the eyes of the scholar-bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty, this was a true martial arts traitor and a traitor. Not only would everyone punish him, he would also be punished verbally and written, and he would be nailed to the pillar of shame forever! Therefore, even if Shi Heng defeated Ola in Shanxi and kept the
Even after visiting Wang Zhe's hometown of Wenxi County, Wang Zhe, as a scholar-bureaucrat, could not change his mind even a little! Of course, "the thieves and bandits come like combs, and the officers and soldiers come like grates." The Ming army's military discipline when fighting in foreign lands also
It really has nothing to do with reconciliation...
"Sending a letter to Hong You, the prefect of Zhengzhou, to return his post... I am the county's ancient Xingyang, and the rain and dew are on one side of the spring. The envoys have repeatedly praised the officials, and the northern house of the Zhou family is engaged in farming and mulberry. The land and soldiers are quiet, and the water is in the desert.
The chasm is dry and the vegetation is green. When we return, Tian’s grace fills the city, and the seal should be written to promote Xunliang in the desert..."
"The prefect of Zhengzhou? That's the prefect of Kaifeng, or the prefect of Zhengzhou. The surname is Hong...well, during the Jingtai or Tianshun years...thirty or forty years ago?..."
The chief envoy Wang Zhe pondered for a while and did not remember who this person was. But it didn't matter, most likely it had nothing to do with Zhejiang officialdom. The "old friends" here are the many "old friends" in the scholar-bureaucrat's network.
", often spread all over the thirteen provinces. Some of the connections between "old and old" are very close, and some are very unfamiliar. It is difficult to see it from the poems, so just refer to one or two.
After leaving political considerations behind, the chief envoy Wang Zhe finally had the time to appreciate the literary grace of this poem.
"Spring comes with rain and dew...good words!...Taiwan is deserted and the dust is quiet, and the water has dried up and the grass and trees are green...good words!...To be able to write such kind-hearted words of peace and happiness, it is indeed Mr. Li Wenxi of Longfeng Academy!..."
While savoring this poem, Chief Minister Wang Zhe sighed with emotion, his eyes filled with fascination.
In fact, the first function of "collections" in this era is "resume", which tells about the achievements of scholar-bureaucrats and officials. The second is "network", which clarifies the relationship between oneself and other scholar-bureaucrats and officials. The third is
"Ideas" express one's political stance and tendency. As for the last one, it is "literary talent", which attracts the admiration of contemporaries or future generations through the talent of poetry and prose...
"Government should guide people and people, straighten out the administration of officials. Encourage farmers and mulberry farmers to calm down the war. Uphold the grace of heaven and help the people below. Let the farmers, farmers and mulberry trees prosper, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. Let the cunning traitors be put down, and the merchants can keep their roots... This is the main government
It is the responsibility of one party to educate a whole place!…”
Having said this, the chief envoy Wang Zhe sighed softly and put down the collection of essays in his hand. After reading these poems, in the network of scholar-officials of "township party, same year, cronies, old friends, disciples", only the last ones were left.
A "disciple" with the largest number and the greatest relationship. And Li Gong's disciple is Liu Gong. Liu Gong presides over the provincial examination. Among the group of Jiangsu and Zhejiang disciples who are well-educated and have no distinction, there is another one waiting in the court...
Thinking of this, the chief envoy Wang Zhe smiled slightly and suddenly turned his head. His eyes were like a torch, and he looked at Shi Wende, who had been waiting respectfully for a long time and had already stood up in sweat, and asked with a smile.
"Sicheng, you stay on your toes and sit in for so long. How do you feel about it?!..."
