On the way to the end of the court, officials who had a good relationship with Wang Yuan all bowed their hands to him in greeting.
Nothing else, just congratulations.
Wang Yuan is enough to leave his name in history just by prompting Guizhou to open a separate school. After all, spreading education is the way of a saint. From now on, all the candidates and Jinshi in Guizhou will be grateful to Wang Yuan for his kindness, and it is logical that they join Wang Yuan's gate.
matter.
After Wang Yuan's side was clear, Yan Song smiled and said, "Ruoxu is a good man!"
"It's just a casual mention. I don't want His Majesty to really agree." Wang Yuan said.
"Why should Ruoxu be humble? The choice of this opportunity today is really amazing." Yan Song has obviously made rapid progress and has a deeper understanding of court politics.
Even though Wang Yuan’s proposal to open schools in Guizhou seems to be a whim, he actually made a precise judgment!
Guizhou opens separate subjects, which has no impact on the South and North lists. Each admits Jinshi in proportion, and those who should pass the exam can pass, and there will be no changes because of a few more Guizhou candidates.
It will only bring variables to the list of successful candidates. Assuming a total of 350 people are admitted, there will be 35 successful candidates.
After Guizhou opened the subject, the number of candidates for the examination increased by two, which means that two more Guizhou scholars will compete for the thirty-five places of Jinshi. If you do not pass the exam this time, the cumulative test will continue in the next time, which is an extra
Four Guizhou candidates competed for 35 places on the list.
Each term is accumulated. If there are no Guizhou scholars in five consecutive terms, there will be ten more Guizhou scholars in the sixth term to compete for the thirty-five places on the list!
A newly minted Jinshi like Jin Lei doesn't care how he competes in the future, it has nothing to do with him.
But for leaders like Yang Tinghe and officials like An Pan, they have a very significant influence. The scholars would scold them: "We are in key positions, but we can't stop Guizhou from opening up."
Ke, what do you do for food?"
Therefore, the biggest obstacle is Yang Tinghe and the Yang Party under Yang Tinghe.
If it had been any other time, once Wang Yuan made a suggestion, the cabinet would have collectively opposed it, and they would have spoken for Yang Tinghe.
Today is different. One of the Yang Party was fined, one was exiled, and one was released. The emperor was clearly retaliating. Wang Yuan wished that all members of the cabinet would oppose it and let the emperor see the influence of the Yang Party. The emperor was so angry that he might not be sure.
What can be done?
It's a pity that Yang Dang is timid.
Not a single cabinet minister or minister directly came forward to support Yang Tinghe. Even Yang Yiqing, whose ancestral home was in Yunnan, did not dare to speak for fear of arousing the emperor's jealousy.
That's why Yan Song said that Wang Yuan had chosen the opportunity well and used the emperor to attack Yang Dang's "power", forcing Yang Dang not to dare to take the lead, and he immediately completed the opening of Guizhou's colleges and universities.
Yan Song sighed with emotion: "Ruoxu is still taking too many risks. We should not mention the pursuit of rewards from old ministers again."
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Do you really think that pursuing the reward comes from His Majesty's will?"
"Isn't it?" Yan Song asked doubtfully.
Wang Yuan explained: "Perhaps the pursuit of the rewards from Mr. Liu Ge and Mr. Xie Ge was caused by Liu Jin's deception of His Majesty. But after the so-called 'fish that slipped through the net' was traced, there was still a need to pursue the rewards of three generations of ancestors. This was definitely Liu Jin's secret
His Majesty has been kept in the dark all this time."
"That's it." Yan Song suddenly realized and bowed deeply to Wang Yuan.
What's the meaning?
Zhu Houzhao was not always "wise and wise". In the years after he took the throne, he was also very childish, and the court was really controlled by Liu Jin.
With the fall of Liu Jin, all kinds of bad things were revealed, and Zhu Houzhao was also frightened. From then on, his political methods improved rapidly. He now knew how to divide the civil servant group, the eunuch group, and the military general group, and did not allow any one party to gain dominance.
Wang Yuan brought up the old incident again with ulterior motives. On the surface, he was firing at An Pan, who was involved in the incident, but secretly, he was pointing the finger at Yang Tinghe. He was comparing Yang Tinghe to Liu Jin, implying that Yang Tinghe might be the next Liu Jin!
The cabinet bosses understood it immediately, and the department spokesman also understood it, so no one dared to speak anymore.
Whoever speaks is Yang Dang, who intends to bewitch the emperor and deceive the emperor just like Liu Jin did!
Yan Song actually didn't understand the mystery, which shows that he has to continue to work hard, and his political sensitivity is not good enough.
Zhang Shilong, the Supervisor of the Shuntian Prefecture Township Examination, suddenly came over, raised his hand to Wang Yuan and said, "Thank you so much, Bachelor Wang!"
"It's just a little effort," Wang Yuan said with a smile, "You two can talk more."
Wang Yuan left the imperial city by himself, while Zhang Shilong and Yan Song left together.
However, after Wang Qiong became the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, he discovered that there were major problems in the salt class over the years, so he asked the emperor to investigate strictly.
Zhu Houzhao asked Wang Yuan casually: "Erlang, who should be sent to check the salt tax?"
Wang Yuan replied: "As an official of the Hanlin Academy, I don't know much about science and education officials. However, Zhang Shilong, the supervisory censor, is very competent in supervising the Shuntian Prefecture Township Examination this time. He supervises everything inside and outside the curtain in an orderly manner."
Therefore, Zhu Houzhao asked Zhang Shilong to serve as the censor of salt inspection in Hedong as the censor of supervision.
This is a tricky job. If you don't investigate it carefully, you will offend the emperor, and if you pursue it strictly, you will offend countless big bosses. At the same time, it is a rare opportunity for promotion. Zhang Shilong is ready to do something big, and he has to fight a few big tigers.
As an official of the Shandong Qing Li Department, Yan Song happened to be in charge of the world's salt class, so he could cooperate with Zhang Shilong and be promoted together after meritorious service.
Zhu Houzhao may have been short of money to train his troops, so he actually thought of rectifying the salt class. This crazy attack on the Yang Party may also be because he felt that the Yang Party was holding him back and not giving the emperor a chance to train his troops with peace of mind, so he took the lead in taking away the position of Minister of Household Affairs.
If Yang Tinghe fully supported the emperor's military training, the emperor would probably let him become a powerful minister.
…
After leaving the West Chang'an Gate, Yuan Da, who was guarding there, said excitedly: "Second brother, Uncle Wang and the others are here!"
Wang Yuan said in surprise: "Didn't we just ask the eldest brother to come? Why is my father also here?"
Not only did his father Wang Quan come, but his mother and eldest brother also came, saying that it was disrespectful to the woman's family if her parents were not present when her son got married.
After returning home, Wang Yuan soon saw a lot of people at home and shouted happily: "Abba, Ama, Big Brother!"
Maybe life has become better, my family members are much fairer, and they are all a little fatter than before.
Before he could say anything, Wang Yuan saw Wei Ying, the governor of Guizhou, and asked in surprise: "Governor Wei has returned to Beijing too?"
Wei Ying cupped her hands and said, "Thank you so much, Scholar Wang, for speaking up!"
Historically, Wei Ying was supposed to be forced by Yang Tinghe to resign and go home to retire during the battle between Yang Tinghe and Yang Yiqing. Now, in order to stabilize the situation in Guizhou, Wang Yuan saved Wei Ying.
Not only that, Wei Ying was promoted from the right deputy capital censor to the left deputy capital censor because of his efforts in suppressing the rebels and returning his native land to the countryside.
Wang Yuan sighed: "Governor Wei really... makes me ashamed!"
Wei Ying smiled and said: "Serve the country, regardless of each other."
When Wei Ying returned to Beijing to report on his work this time, he not only brought Wang Yuan's parents here, but also directly visited Wang Yuan in official uniform. This was to show his attitude: he is Wang Yuan's staunch political ally!
It was Yang Tinghe who went too far and made Wei Ying full of resentment.
A year ago, Wei Ying, as the right deputy capital envoy, patrolled Guizhou, and also controlled Huguang and Sichuan. In essence, he was a weakened version of the governor of the three provinces. Moreover, he fought in consecutive battles, defeated 600 rebel strongholds, and captured and killed the rebels.
Thousands, nearly 20,000 rebels were recruited and surrendered.
Such a high-ranking local official with countless meritorious services was actually forced by Yang Tinghe to resign to prove his innocence because of the impeachment of the censor.
And the patrol censor was promoted by Yang Tinghe who broke the rules. He had just followed Wei Ying in a favorable battle and made meritorious service, and was promoted, but in the blink of an eye he turned against him.
That's too much!
After Wei Ying learned the truth of the matter, he hated Yang Tinghe to his core and criticized Yang Yiqing. He was determined to follow Wang Yuan from now on.
What's more, Wei Ying and Wang Yuan already have a deep relationship.
Wang Yangming was demoted to Guizhou as a post minister. It was precisely because of Wei Ying's strong recommendation that he was promoted to be a county minister in Jiangxi before Liu Jin fell.
Wei Ying was kind to Wang Yangming, and Wang Yuan was kind to Wei Ying. They were all members of the same family, with an unbreakable alliance.
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Nan Weng, I will take you to see His Majesty another day. After meeting His Majesty, don't talk about the complicated political affairs. Just talk about how the officers and soldiers killed thieves and how to force the local chieftains to obey. Also, Ling
My son’s deeds on the battlefield must also be told vividly, as His Majesty likes to hear them.”
"It should be so." Wei Ying clasped her fists and smiled.
At Wei Ying's current age, if things go well and he is in a good mood, and does not end up depressed like in history. With Wang Yuan's help, and Wei Ying's own qualifications and talents, maybe he can take charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in a few years.
