Chapter 166 People sit in the hall, officials come from heaven
If we say that when we first took the Jiuzhangtang exam, many students, even though they were poor, may have been used to being groveling on the outside, but in their bones they carried an untimely arrogance of being alone in the world, then it was just a matter of staying in Jiuzhangtang.
After three days, their arrogance was shattered. Because the things Zhang Shou threw out were really unheard of, and it would take time to accept and understand them.
However, the progress of the lectures is so fast that it’s scary! At first, they felt confident that the pace of one book a day was just right for them, but now they wish they could slow down a bit and give them more time to accept these new systems.
.
Therefore, on this morning, when the little fat man Lu Sanlang stood up in the lecture hall again with great dignity, no one would intentionally or unintentionally provoke the chief minister who was a minister. Facts have proved that Lu Sanlang did have the qualifications of the chief minister.
, he answered everything he asked fluently. And Qi Liang, who was born in the countryside, was indeed Zhang Shou's earliest student and knew much more than them.
"Did any of you complete the tasks assigned by the teacher yesterday?" Hearing the mixed responses, Lu Sanlang instructed Qi Liang to collect some homework. After taking it in his hand and scanning it, he said in a deep voice, "
Those who can squeeze out time to do this first are worthy of praise. But those who haven't done it don't need to continue because the teacher has changed his mind."
"Teacher secured a big project for everyone from the Ordnance Bureau."
Seeing that the twenty or so people below were at a loss at first, and then most of them showed expressions of surprise, he then said proudly: "The Ordnance Bureau has a very complicated fourteen-ring text secret box, each ring is four
A text, a total of fifty-six characters. These fifty-six characters are all from the Thousand-Character Text. What we have to do now is to cooperate with the teacher and try to unlock the secret box..."
When Zhang Shou finished the morning classes at Banshan Hall and was about to go to Jiuzhang Hall to see the progress of Lu Sanlang's organization of the supervisors to carry out "research", he suddenly felt that there seemed to be someone behind him. When he turned around, he saw the third prince.
He and the Fourth Prince tiptoed behind him. He immediately smiled and said: "Why, you still want to go to Jiuzhang Hall to take classes? The progress there is too fast, not suitable for the two princes."
The third prince nodded obediently, but the fourth prince rushed to say: "Teacher, we are not going to Jiuzhangtang to take classes. My father bought many of Taishi Ge's books, saying that he would study them and teach us personally! I am
I want to tell the teacher that you are going to be promoted!"
Well……
Zhang Shou couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard Tong Yan Wuji's yelling. He subconsciously looked around and saw that the inmates of Guijie who had not left the room, including Zhang Chen, were almost all there.
Staring at him closely, and then looking outside the hall, the people who had not gone far also stopped, and the eyes they looked at him were obviously extremely subtle.
Those students in Suixing Hall who aspired to the academic field might show reserve at such times, but the disciples of Guijie in Banshan Hall who were originally from well-known families and had prominent family backgrounds were very sensitive to any mention of promotion.
Everyone knows that Zhang Shoucai became a doctor of Guozi not long ago, so why did he need to be promoted again? The most important thing is, if Zhang Shou is not a doctor of Guozi, what will happen to their studies? Can they not get it?
Zhang Shou smiled and touched the fourth prince's head, and then said gently: "No matter where you got the news, you should not tell it hastily before it is clearly announced. Because, if it is true,
Yes, some people will accuse you of leaking court secrets; if things go wrong, some people will accuse you of spreading rumors and causing trouble. Do you understand?"
The fourth prince was startled. Then, he heard the third prince behind him whisper: "Fourth brother, the teacher is right..."
"But this is what my father told me personally." The fourth prince did not expect that Zhang Shou not only was not happy, but also reprimanded himself. He couldn't help feeling a little aggrieved, "My father also asked me to tell the teacher first."
Zhang Shou didn't expect that the emperor would act so randomly. He could only squat down with a wry smile and look directly into the eyes of the fourth prince: "That was not a lesson, it was a reminder. You can keep it in mind and ask the emperor again after you return to the palace.
Am I right? As for promotion, I'm actually a few years older than you. I'll have the chance to get promoted in the future, so don't worry, but no matter what, I have to thank you."
The fourth prince was finally very satisfied with this thank you. He nodded happily towards Zhang Shou, and when he was about to say something else, he suddenly heard a burst of shouting from behind. Immediately afterwards, he saw the man who had just left.
A supervisor ran back like a gust of wind: "Teacher, Da Sicheng wants you to go to the doctor's hall as soon as possible!"
With the fourth prince's words in mind, Zhang Shou was naturally mentally prepared. Sure enough, when he came to the doctor's hall, he was faced with the envious and jealous eyes of a large group of colleagues, as well as the meaningful expressions of Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye.
But even though he was prepared, Zhang Shou was still a little surprised when he heard about the official position he was about to take.
A seventh-grade doctor of the Imperial Academy, a sixth-grade Hanlin Chancellor, and a Zuo Zanshan of Zhanshifu? Although he is a chancellor, not a bachelor of chancellor, this is a qualitative difference, but everyone knows that Hanlin Academy and Zhanshifu are
It is a more noble place than the Imperial College!
The person who came to deliver the appointment was not an eunuch, but a small official from the General Affairs Department - let alone these days, the number of eunuchs was originally small. Take the Ming and Qing Dynasties in history as an example, eunuchs had to be dispatched to deliver the message.
Purpose, then the person who is promoted must have a high enough rank, otherwise the eunuchs in the palace will not have to do other things, and there will be a huge team running outside all day long!
This junior official had already been questioned from beginning to end by many academic officials including Zhou Jijiu and Luo Siye. Although he was surprised to see Zhang Shou at this time, after receiving the appointment document, he was calm and relaxed.
After digging into it, I couldn't help but praise it secretly in my heart.
Look at Dr. Zhang. Not only is he good-looking, but he is also calm and composed. How different from you guys who read books about sages but have narrow minds. All you have to do is ask Dr. Zhang if there is something fishy about his promotion!
Therefore, seeing Zhang Shou sincerely thanking him for coming all the way, he made a point of saying a few more words before leaving: "It is said that Dr. Zhang's promotion was personally drafted by Mr. Wu Ge of the cabinet, and the Sixth Section Gallery also
We debated, but in the end the appointment was successfully sent to the General Affairs Department. After all, you captured the rebels last time, and you captured the rebels again this time. You judged that the plaque inscribed by Taizu was fictitious, and you also deciphered the secret letter of the rebels."
"Based on these merits, Dr. Zhang deserves to be promoted."
After saying this, the usually cautious and timid official cupped his hands, waved his sleeves and left without taking away a trace of cloud. Zhang Shou had no intention of staying in the doctor's hall to stimulate his colleagues, but in view of his influence on the Hanlin Academy and Zhan Shou,
The Shifu didn't know much about it, so he had to ask Zhou Jijiu for a few words. When he learned that Zhan Shifu was now an empty yamen, and the Hanlin Academy didn't need to order anything, he left with peace of mind.
After he left, Yang Yiming, the Guozi doctor who was in charge of Suixingtang, finally couldn't help complaining: "The Hanlin Academy and Zhanshifu are such noble places. He is so young and has no talent or virtue, yet he can be ranked among them so easily."
in……"
Before he could finish his words, Zhou Xun, the prince of the country, said calmly: "Then you also go and catch a few traitors, and then decipher the secret letters between the traitors, and by the way, cut out the Jiuzhangtang inscribed plaque.
Xuanxu, say this again!"
Yang Yiming didn't dare to say what he just said in front of Zhang Shou. At this time, Zhou Xun's sarcasm made him feel even more embarrassed. He immediately found an excuse and hurried out. As soon as he left, Zhou Xun returned to the inner room.
In the meantime, Luo Siye looked around at the other people with different expressions, and then sighed and said: "In the future, it will not only be your colleagues, but also don't forget that Dr. Zhang is of a higher rank than you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the faces of a group of academic officials suddenly turned the color of pig liver. A group of Jinshi people felt that Zhang Shou, a young man with no fame and honor, suddenly ranked with them, so they were ashamed of it. Who knew that the emperor was even more so?
If it is not enough, I will continue to push beyond the limits.
Zhang Shou, who returned to the dormitory for a lunch break, learned from Zhu Hong the latest version of the truth that Liu Kelang had not denied the appointment. Because, when the cabinet elder Wu Ge was besieged by several people,
The emperor personally sent someone a rubbing of the plaque inscribed by Emperor Taizu in the Hanlin Academy. On that plaque, it was written exactly the four words "Wei Cai Ji".
Probably because of the recent influx of Guizijian disciples into prisons, the gates of the Imperial College were much looser than before, so Zhu Hongshun sneaked in without hesitation. At this time, he explained: "It is said that there is a meritocracy in the Hanlin Academy.
Under the plaque inscribed on the title, there is also engraved the ancestral motto of Emperor Taizu: Non-Jinshi can enter the Imperial Academy, and non-Hanlin can enter the cabinet. There is no strict rule, only those who are qualified can be admitted!"
Zhang Shou couldn't help but murmur to himself: Why is Emperor Taizu opposed to non-Jinshi not being admitted to the Hanlin, and non-Hanlin not being allowed to join the cabinet?
He thought so in his heart, but he didn't show it. He just smiled and said: "Thank you for coming all the way. Did Yingying ask you to come?"
"The eldest lady went to the Duke of Chu's Mansion for a banquet again. It was the Madam and Madam who asked me to come. The Madam said, Mr. Shou, you just need to know some things. Madam said, Mr. Shou, please take care of your health. If you have the time,
, just practice swordsmanship with Ah Liu."
When Zhu Hong said the last sentence, his expression suddenly became unnatural. Does Madam hope that Zhang Shou will become a master so that he can fight with the eldest lady again and again in the future?
He was actually amazed at how quickly Zhang Shou was promoted. You must know that this is not a troubled time, but a peaceful and prosperous time. Even the number one scholar has to be promoted slowly and steadily. How could Zhang Shou enter the official position from a white background and become an official in less than two months?
Got promoted so quickly?
Knowing that Zhu Ying was still patiently attending various parties and banquets, Zhang Shou couldn't help but feel that if this eldest lady was really serious, she would still be unrivaled. At the moment, he asked Zhu Hong to greet Mrs.
After Madam and Jiuniang sent the people away, he looked at the rich food box as usual and wanted to go out and call Lu Sanlang and Qi Liang, but in the end he changed his mind.
Nowadays, it is no different than before. The twenty-odd people in Jiuzhangtang all live in dormitories. Don’t be too obvious about favoring one over another. He should just eat alone!
