With the current influence of the Di Bao Si, the eighth grade chief official is indeed a bit low.
Therefore, after His Majesty the Emperor spoke, the Ministry of Rites and several officials from the Ministry of Rites quickly nodded, and after discussion with several officials, the rank of the chief officer of the Diji Reporting Department was raised to the seventh rank.
The magnitude of this increase is huge.
Da Chen's officials of the third rank and above are divided into one rank and two levels, that is, they are divided into the third rank and the third rank, but those who are below the third rank official are the first rank and the fourth rank. In addition to the distinction of Congzheng, there are also upper and lower grades.
In other words, this lift is a four-level lift.
You must know that this is not just the promotion of the chief officer alone, but also the improvement of the yamen's grade. In theory, everyone in the yamen will be promoted to the fourth level, unless the business ability is really poor, or the chief officer does not like it. , it will be transferred from other places.
In the Manlu Palace, after the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Rites finalized the promotion grade, Wu Kan, the Minister of Rites, stood up. He looked at the first emperor, slightly cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Shen Yi, Si Zheng of the Imperial Palace, was promoted last year. Jinshi was later promoted to the Hanlin Academy with an exception, and His Majesty arranged for him to be the Chief of the Dijing Newspaper Division. However, he was still young after all. Now that the Dijing Newspaper Division has been promoted to a higher rank, should he send someone else to the Dishi Newspaper Division? Report to the department as Sizheng and give Shen Yi a deputy position..."
"In other words, let Shen Yi do official business as an eighth-grade official."
As soon as Wu Kan finished speaking, the other two officials from the Ministry of Rites glanced at him.
The three officials from the Ministry of Personnel couldn't help but glance at him.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor promoted Di Bao Si not because of how important Di Bao Si was now, but because he wanted to promote Shen Yi as a person, so he promoted Di Bao Si.
In other words, it was because of Shen Yi's vinegar that Di Baosi made the dumplings.
Now that the matter of the Di Reporting Department has been settled, it is everyone's default for Shen Yi to be promoted to the seventh rank, but this Wu Shilang jumped out at this time...
However, several court officials just glanced at Wu Kan and figured out the cause and effect of the matter. They stopped looking at Wu Shilang and continued to watch his nose and heart.
His Majesty the Emperor on the throne stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, feeling speechless.
He knew very well why Wu Shilang jumped out like this.
Because Wu Shilang was one of the two people who took the exam last spring.
In other words, he and Shen Yi have some master-disciple status.
It was precisely because of this level of master-disciple status that when Shen Yi was rising rapidly, Wu Kan would jump out and symbolically block him, just to show his selfless literary character.
However, Wu Shilang knew very well that he was unlikely to prevent Shen Yi from rising to the top, and he had no intention of going against His Majesty the Emperor. He just made this comment to gain fame.
There is no way, this is what scholars are good at.
His Majesty the Emperor glanced at him angrily and said calmly: "Shen Yi has contributed a lot to the establishment of this newspaper department. For such rare talents, the imperial court will naturally promote them. I have always not valued seniority and age. ."
"If we have to talk about age, I am the same age as Shen Yi. Could it be that my seniority is not enough?"
After saying that, the emperor waved his hand and said: "Okay, the matter of the Di Reporting Department is not a big deal. Let's just settle it. There is no need to talk about it anymore."
At this moment, the young emperor had dark circles under his eyes, and then yawned widely.
"I am a little tired, please leave me."
After hearing this, several officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel immediately stood up, bowed to His Majesty the Emperor, and then resigned and left the Manlu Hall.
After these officials left, the little emperor stretched again and grunted: "These civil servants are really sour and smelly. Sometimes they don't do anything practical at all, and each one has more little ideas than the last."
Eunuch Gao stood beside the emperor and said with a smile: "Your Majesty came in in a remote place, and I admire you."
"Stop flattering me, I don't like hearing it."
The emperor was a little sleepy now. After yawning, he lay down on the sofa and closed his eyes: "I will take a short rest. I will send you a late lunch. I will summon the prime minister and the officials of the Ministry of War for me to discuss the matter. I will sleep."
After I wake up and have lunch, I’ll discuss something with them.”
Hearing this, Eunuch Gao lowered his head slightly and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to summon all the prime ministers in Zhongshu?"
"all come."
The little emperor looked sleepy: "Lest they say that I don't take them seriously."
Gao Ming's face became serious, he bowed his head respectfully and said, "I have taken note of this."
The five prime ministers were summoned at the same time to discuss matters, which were usually more important matters in the court.
But this time, the emperor not only summoned five prime ministers, but also summoned officials from the Ministry of War to discuss matters, so the content of their discussions was clearly revealed.
Discuss issues related to the establishment of the anti-Japanese army.
Or, allow Shen Yi and Li Mu to recruit as many anti-Japanese soldiers along the coast.
For a country to build a new military organization, this is naturally a very big deal, and it is difficult to implement.
First of all, the budget of the Ministry of Accounts cannot be met.
Fortunately, the anti-Japanese army does not need to take money from the treasury at the moment. They can support themselves with the cash from wealthy merchants along the coast. However, His Majesty the Emperor is obviously still afraid of the Ministry of Revenue looking for trouble, so he simply did not let anyone from the Ministry of Revenue come to discuss the matter.
.
With Shen Yi's current money-making ability, within three to five years, the money for building and maintaining the anti-Japanese army will not need to come from the treasury.
And three to five years later...
There is no need to consider this issue anymore.
That afternoon, three officials from the Ministry of War chatted all afternoon in the Ganlu Hall.
In the end, His Majesty the Emperor overcame all opinions, ignored the opinions of the three officials of the Ministry of War and the opinions of several ministers, and gave the anti-Japanese army high-level organizational specifications.
The next day, a eunuch dressed in purple set out from the palace gate, then all the way out of the imperial city, escorted by more than a dozen internal guards, he went straight to Taizhou Mansion.
Because the eunuch in purple was over fifty years old and could not ride a fast horse, he could only ride in a carriage. Therefore, the team did not move very fast. From Jiankang to Taizhou Prefecture, which is a thousand miles away, they walked six
It took seven days to arrive at Linhai, Taizhou Prefectural Government Office.
After the eunuch in purple made inquiries around Linhai County, he finally met Shen Yi in the Wang family mansion.
It is worth mentioning that there are no Wang family members in the Wang family mansion now.
Because more than 20 people from the direct lineage of the Wang family were killed by the angry Li Mu, leaving no one alive.
Even members of the Wang family branch suffered fatal disasters.
The entire Wang family was affected by this Japanese affair. Under the anger of Jin Crown Prince Li Mu, more than 200 members of the Wang family were exiled.
The Wang family's mansion was naturally confiscated and is now Shen Yi's temporary office.
Hearing that the imperial envoy had arrived, Shen Yi quickly led people to greet him. After seeing the little old man in purple clothes in front of him, Mr. Shen's eyes changed slightly.
Although he was not very clear about the structure of the palace's internal chamberlain, he also knew that there were not many eunuchs in purple robes in the palace's chamberlain, and he estimated that there were only seven or eight eunuchs in purple.
Mr. Shen stepped forward with a smile. He cupped his hands to this little old man who was obviously older than Gao Ming and was most likely the late emperor's eunuch. He smiled and said: "Shen Yi, the Chief of the Diplomacy, welcome to the angel."
He made a gesture to bow down, but before he could do so, he was helped up by the old eunuch in purple clothes.
"I don't dare to accept Shen Hanlin's gift as it will shorten my life."
He looked at Shen Yi with a smile and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Shen. I heard that Mr. Shen has made a fortune in Taizhou Prefecture."
Shen Yi waved his hands repeatedly: "My father-in-law is making fun of me, how can I talk about getting rich?"
"Shen Hanlin not only made a fortune, he also got promoted."
