rebirth first official

It didn't take long for autumn to arrive.

A new batch of beautiful women will enter the palace, and the concubines who gave birth to the emperor's son and daughter for the emperor the year before will be canonized.Hanlin scholars write Zhu Wen and Bao Wen, and officials from the Ministry of Rites are responsible for presiding over the canonization and other ceremonies.

The year before last, because of the imperial examination fraud case, many officials of the Ministry of Rites were implicated and were suspended and dismissed. Many officials of the Ministry of Rites were newly appointed.Gao Yuanzhao, the eldest son of An Guogong, was originally working in the Ministry of Rites. Taking this opportunity, Gao's family promoted him to be the minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Since the officials of the Ministry of Rites have just taken office, they are cronies of the powerful, have no real talents and knowledge, and are not very familiar with some things, so in the end they messed up the canonization ceremony and mistaken Bao Lin, who gave birth to a new prince, who should have been named a talented person. It was done, but she was still promoted to Baolin, and after a lot of tossing, she was neither promoted nor degraded.The book written by Hanlin officials was based on the materials provided by the officials of the Ministry of Rites, and the final book was naturally wrong.

That talent went to Li Changzhi and cried bitterly. When Li Changzhi found out, he was very angry and flew into a rage in the palace.

In front of all Hanlin, Li Changzhi asked: "Who is in charge of this matter in the Ministry of Rites?"

Su Yu said: "It's Gao Huashang, the new Minister of Rites."

How could Li Changzhi not know that it was Gao Huashang? He only asked on purpose, but he glanced at Gao Zhanming who was aside intentionally or unintentionally.

The first draft of this volume was drafted by Gao Zhanming, but he only drafted the Zhu Wen according to the usual practice, and the final draft was made by Hanlin scholars.

Gao Zhanming knew about this beforehand, so he went back to check it out, and it was indeed the officials of the Ministry of Rites who made a mistake.The conferred talented person was just promoted to Baolin last year, and the year before last was a royal maid, perhaps some letter was omitted when the old and new officials of the Ministry of Rites handed over her, and she was even regarded as a royal maid to be canonized.This matter had nothing to do with him originally, but he thought about it all night, and finally decided to take advantage of it to give it a go.

Gao Zhanming got up suddenly, knelt down in front of Li Changzhi, and said: "This matter is due to my negligence, my humble minister is guilty, please punish me."

Li Changzhi was startled, and so were all Hanlin present.Although Gao Zhanming drafted the letter, he also drafted it completely according to the official document of the Ministry of Rites, and it was also reviewed by the Ministry of Rites in the end. There are so many beauties in the harem, and even the Ministry of Rites did not figure it out. Where did the talented person come from? In the end, the crime is the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites. The Hanlin scholar who made the final draft hasn't said anything yet. What crime did Gao Zhanming rush to take on himself?

Li Changzhi didn't know whether Gao Zhanming was pretending or some other idea, so he sneered and said, "You drafted the booklet?"

Gao Zhanming said: "Yes, it's all the fault of the humble minister, please forgive me."

Li Changzhi was taken aback again.This Gao Zhanming hastily took the blame on himself, he didn't shirk at all, he didn't say that the emperor forgives the crime, but asked the emperor to reduce the crime, what is he trying to do, do he really think that he dare not punish him?

Li Changzhi said: "Tell me, what is your guilt?"

Gao Zhanming said: "The minister knew about this the day before yesterday, so he went back and checked it immediately. The official document sent by the Ministry of Rites was not wrong. It was due to my negligence when writing the document that day. It was all the fault of the minister alone. It has nothing to do with other Hanlin and officials of the Ministry of Rites." As soon as he found out about this, he immediately asked the officials of the Ministry of Rites to change the materials overnight.The officials of the Ministry of Rites originally did something wrong, and they were afraid that the crime would fall on themselves. Someone was willing to take the blame for them.

The Hanlin scholar on the side was shocked.He had read the materials sent by the Ministry of Rites, and it was clear that the Ministry of Rites had made a mistake, how could Gao Zhanming... However, he didn't know the origin of it, so he didn't dare to speak rashly at this time.

Li Changzhi remained silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Go down, I have something to ask Gao Hanlin."

Su Yu glanced at Gao Zhanming inexplicably, hesitated for a while, but didn't say anything, led the Hanlin to thank him, and left the hall.

After Hanlin left, Li Changzhi drove away the accompanying eunuchs and court ladies, leaving Gao Zhanming alone.

Li Changzhi said leisurely: "Gao Qing..." After a pause, he took a sip of the tea at hand, but remained silent.

Gao Zhanming said: "I am willing to accept the punishment."

Li Changzhi said: "According to the law... how should I punish you?"

Gao Zhanming said: "Punish the salary and suspend it. After a year or so, the criminal minister will be re-activated. Maybe it will rise instead of drop. Or... the criminal minister will be released from Beijing."

Li Changzhi was startled and almost spilled the tea in his hand.Originally, Gao Zhanming took the initiative to accept the punishment, but he thought it was the Gao family who had come up with some kind of plan.After all, Gao Huashang, the eldest son of An Guogong, as the Minister of Rites, cannot escape responsibility for this matter, and perhaps he wants to take the blame.However, it is only a matter of Baolin, and Baolin has no powerful background, so it is not a big deal. If the people of the Gao family try to make a big deal into a trivial matter, even if they have to be punished in the end, at most they will be exempted from a few officials from the Ministry of Rites. It is impossible for Gao Huashang and the Gao family to be shaken by the official position of the official, and then punishing the Minister of the Ministry of Rites and the Minister of the Ministry of Rites with a few months' salary.What's more, Gao Zhanming, as a direct descendant of the Gao family, even if he wants to abandon the army to keep the commander in chief, he will not be the one who was abandoned.

This Gao Zhanming put on airs and came out to receive the punishment. Li Changzhi thought he was putting on airs, but he actually said... let it out? !He is now a popular person in front of Empress Dowager Gao, and he is flourishing in the court!

Li Changzhi sat up straight involuntarily: "Outside? You want to go out of Beijing?"

Gao Zhanming thought about this matter for a long time.When he stayed in the capital, he was doing things under the eyes of the Gao family, and he did not please both sides.Moreover, Gao Qiang didn't pay much attention to his political opinions at all, and he didn't intend to use his new laws. He only thought about how to eliminate dissidents and consolidate his rights.As a Beijing official, let alone another ten or eight years before he can really have real power. At that time, the Empress Dowager Gao will be getting older. ?

It would be better to let him out of Beijing. His rank and status are naturally inferior to those of officials in Beijing, but the emperor is far away. As a result, if he is recalled to the capital, there will be more things he can do.

Thinking of this, Gao Zhanming raised his head and looked at Li Changzhi, and said softly: "Does the emperor not want to send this humble official out of Beijing? Do you want this humble official to stay in the palace, in Hanlin?"

Li Changzhi was very surprised.Of course he can't wait to drive Gao Zhanming out of the capital as soon as possible so that he doesn't hang around in front of him.In his eyes, Gao Zhanming is Gao Qiang's dog.But how could Empress Dowager Gao be willing to leave her dog?Did Gao Zhanming offend Gao Qiang and An Guogong?

Li Changzhi pondered for a moment and said, "What does the Queen Mother mean?"

Gao Zhanming said: "The important thing is what the emperor thinks."

Li Changzhi laughed.I have to say that he loves what Gao Zhanming said.He said, "Then what do you think?"

Gao Zhanming said: "I don't want to offend the Queen Mother, let alone the emperor. If I say that I also have ambitions, will the emperor believe me?"

Li Changzhi was surprised again.Could it be that what Gao Zhanming did before was not willing?What does ambition mean?

Gao Zhanming said: "Your Majesty, I know how I see you in the eyes of the Emperor. You may not believe me if you tell me, but my father died young, and my mother... the Tang family also lost in the battle ten years ago. Although I was studying in the Gao family's Zongxue, I was called "Dugu Poor". I was bullied and bullied in the Zongxue since I was a child. The Queen Mother and An Guogong did take care of my ministers a lot. There is a fortune in the family, but... like a person drinking water, he knows whether he is warm or not. I have always been grateful for the kindness of the emperor and the queen mother, and studied hard in the cold window, so that one day I can serve the country."

Li Changzhi was silent.He had heard about Gao Zhanming before. It seemed that one year the Empress Dowager wanted Gao Zhanming to be raised in An Guogong's mansion, but it didn't happen in the end. It seemed that Gao Zhanming himself refused.But what Gao Zhanming's situation is, he naturally doesn't know in the deep palace. In his eyes, those Gao family's children are all virtuous, especially when the Empress Dowager Gao clearly helped Gao Zhanming in the imperial examination, he felt that Gao Zhanming must be attached to Gao Qiang.Are there other secrets in it?

Li Changzhi said: "Do you really want to leave Beijing?"

Gao Zhanming secretly sighed, and repeated: "The important thing is what the emperor thinks."

Li Changzhi hesitated again and again, and finally couldn't help asking: "Why did you take the imperial examination that day?"

Gao Zhanming said: "It's just some obsessions of the minister. I don't hide it from the emperor. Before the minister consulted, the Queen Mother did tell the minister in private that she intends to recruit the minister to the court as an official. It is the minister who insists on taking part in the scientific examination. The case, the minister did not know in advance."

Li Changzhi was silent again.What Gao Zhanming said, he didn't know whether he should believe it or not, but Gao Zhanming's expression showed that he was sincere.If it was Gao Qiang's idea for Gao Zhanming to go out of Beijing, then Gao Zhanming doesn't have to accept these mistakes. Gao Qiang can just think of a reason to send Gao Zhanming out of the capital. Better office.

Li Changzhi said in a low voice: "If you stay in the capital, for me..."

Gao Zhanming interrupted: "I am grateful for the kindness of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, and have the heart to serve the country." This means that he does not want to offend anywhere.Even if he didn't help the Empress Dowager Gao, it was absolutely impossible for him to help the emperor deal with the Gao family.

Li Changzhi sighed.He can actually feel Gao Zhanming's involuntary, after all, isn't he the same?

Li Changzhi said: "But regarding the ritual system, it is true that the Ministry of Rites made a mistake. Not only the canon, but also the ritual system of the canonization is wrong."

Gao Zhanming said: "That's the matter of the Ministry of Rites. I have been in the Hanlin for less than half a year, and it is my fault that I made a mistake in the book. Please forgive me."

Li Changzhi remained silent for a long time, and finally heaved a long sigh: "Forget it, you go out first, I will think about this matter again." I have to admit that today's conversation made him start to re-evaluate Gao Zhanming in his heart.

The author has something to say:

Just say something funny.When writing the imperial examinations, I mainly refer to the materials of the Tang Dynasty, but the imperial examinations of the Tang Dynasty were actually not so strict, and there were still a lot of nonsense, so the deeds such as the exchange of Zhujuan and ink scrolls were referred to the Song Dynasty.

Regarding the Jingzhao Mansion I wrote before, you probably don’t know what’s going on, but it’s actually a bit similar to the current college entrance examination.The provincial examinations are selected first by the localities. In fact, there are serious regional differences, just like Beijing and Shanghai are much easier to test than other places.The test center of Jingzhaofu is the test center of Gyeonggi. It is a bit like the college entrance examination in Beijing. It has a lot of power. The two prefectures of Tonghua around Gyeonggi are also very easy to take the test. The number of places in the rural test is much more than other places. I It is not an exaggeration to say in the article that 1 out of [-] applicants in the country are selected by the Jingzhao Prefecture.Moreover, the top ten people in Jingzhao Mansion won the first rank. In the entire Tang Dynasty, there were only thirty or so people who won the first rank but failed in the general examination, very few.If Xie Yuan selected by the Jingzhao Mansion fails in the end, the Jingzhao Mansion also has the right to transfer the essay to the same examiner and ask the same examiner to explain: How dare you let him lose the No. [-] selected by Mao Laozi? !Give me an explanation, otherwise I will never end with you!

Then of course students all over the country hope that they can go to Beijing and Shanghai (Jingzhaofu) to take the college entrance examination. The country also has household registration restrictions, so you can take the exam wherever you are, otherwise it will not be messed up~ Sometimes the policy will be released. A little looser, such as how many years you have been in other places, the local government recognizes your identity (household registration), and you can also stay here for the exam.

Anyway, if you look at ancient times, you will find that many places are very similar to modern times haha~
