The chosen order was issued from the Cabinet.
Although the imperial court selected officials and always followed the rules of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Military Affairs, the cabinet system was not among them. It's all because the cabinet has set up two rooms in the middle of the book, this is to assist the elders of the cabinet in handling government affairs, and the humble and petty are not taken seriously.
It's just that this kind of neglect, as the cabinet occupied more and more weight above the court, these Zhongshusheren, who played the role of the bookkeeper beside the patriarch, gradually became conspicuous.
To put it bluntly, not from a 'near' word.
Because the cabinet ministers are close to the emperor, although the position is low, but the words are heavy.
And where is the cabinet? There are countless proclamations and edicts issued from the cabinet every day, as well as memorials handed down from various places below. The people in the cabinet are the first to know what happened and what the trend is, so the status of these middle school people is particularly high, and they are flattered wherever they go.
Even low-level officials and new scholars from all over the world are all competing for it, but it is impossible to get it.
There are 20 middle-aged scholars in the two rooms, and any one of them is not from a deep background, or is a member of the old man's own team.
"Let's write congratulations to Xue Xiu first."
"Thank you He Zhongshu." Xue Tingxiang bowed his hands.
He You held his arm with one hand, and shoved the order into his hand with the other: "It's absolutely inappropriate, Lord Zhongtang will always be concerned about this matter, if Xue Xiuzhuan develops in the future, please don't forget to support One or two."
After all, he didn't stay long, smiled and patted Xue Tingxiang on the shoulder and left.
After he left, people from the National History Museum rushed up and congratulated Xue Tingxiang, and there were even people from the Shuchang Museum outside to probe their brains.
"I never expected Xue Xiuzhuan to have such a good fortune." Meng Haochang said, his envy was just beyond words.
"If possible, I actually want to exchange with Meng Bianxiu." Xue Tingyan said with a wry smile.
It's a pity that no one believed his words, just pretended he was doing it on purpose. Lu Shenming seldom speaks to the two of them on weekdays. At this time, he stood aside with envy and jealousy. He couldn't help but say, "Humility is human nature. If you are too modest, it will be too much."
These words were too yin and yang, but Xue Tingxiang didn't bother to argue with him, just sighed and didn't speak.
After a while, the news that Xue Xiuzhuan would be transferred to the cabinet spread in the Hanlin Academy.
Even the old Wu Ge supported and spread the word.
He You is the person next to Wu Ge, and He You brought the transfer order, and He You just now looks like there, who can it be if it is not Wu Ge.
This matter attracted a lot of heated discussions, and naturally it also spread to Tao Yitong's ears.
It was really hard for him to not know. After the incident, someone took the initiative to inform him.
Tao Yitong remembered the encounter in front of the Hanlin Academy that day, and what he did that day, he was jealous and couldn't help but sneered: "Maybe someone secretly did that clinging thing, just not for outsiders. Just know."
This statement is going to make people suspicious, especially from Tao Yitong's mouth.
Thinking of what happened to this person, and then thinking that Xue Tingxiang had offended Wu Ge Lao, he was repeatedly treated coldly. Suddenly, from the ground to the sky overnight, it was Wu Ge who helped him. Is it really what everyone thought
But this time, no one dared to discuss it face to face.
Even if he is not afraid of Wu Ge Lao, or that Xue Tingxiang, seeing that he is on duty in the cabinet, no one wants to offend such a person. So they all looked at each other, laughed a few times, said a few other words, and then left.
Not to mention here, Xue Tingxiang returned home and informed Zhao'er of the matter.
However, she didn't tell her about the various joints, and Zhao'er thought that she was a man and was promoted, and she was quite happy. I personally cooked and cooked the table to celebrate.
Two days passed in a hurry, Xue Tingxiang handed over the chores of the Hanlin Academy together, and went to the cabinet lobby to take up his post.
The cabinet lobby is under the root of Nancheng, enter the palace gate, and then go through the Xiehe Gate on the west side.
The gate faces south, and when you enter the gate, you will be greeted by a three-room wide lobby, and three east and west wing rooms, all of which are hard top-style and covered with yellow glazed tiles.
From the outside, this place is really inconspicuous compared to the towering palaces in the Forbidden City. But here is the political center of Dachang, the cabinet lobby. It is also here that the changes in the situation above the court are controlled, and the ministers of the past dynasties and dynasties are here to engage in various tug-of-war battles with the emperors.
Standing in front of the cabinet lobby, Xue Tingxiang felt a little embarrassed.
Obviously, he should have never been here, but he seems to be very familiar with every brick and stone here. And the taste here, the long-lost taste.
"Xue Xiuzhuan is here?" He You greeted him from the inside and seemed to be very close: "It's not over yet, so Elder Ge has not come back yet, so I'll lead you in first."
The entire cabinet lobby is divided into several parts. Needless to say, the central lobby is the duty room for the elders, and the left and right side rooms are the imperial and imperial rooms. Afterwards, there are also the cabinet treasury, etc., so I won't go into details.
Although the elders of the pavilion are not there, the books in the two rooms have already arrived, and they are busy with their own affairs. Xue Tingxiang's arrival did not attract their attention. He You led him to visit them one by one. Some just nodded, while others stood up and greeted each other.
Clearly, the people who can get up and chat with Xue Tingxiang are mostly Wu Gelao's team in the cabinet, and obviously treat Xue Tingxiang as one of his own.
own people
After that, He You left and returned to the imperial room, leaving Xue Tingxiang in the imperial room. He came to sit down in front of the desk to which he was assigned, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Although he still hasn't figured out what medicine is sold in Wu Ge's old gourd, he has to say that Wu Ge's release made him quite uncomfortable.
One of the discomforts is that he doesn't know its purpose, and the second is that it obviously goes against his previous thoughts.
Although Xue Tingxiang has been sitting on the cold bench these days, he is not anxious in his heart. Sooner or later, Emperor Jiacheng will use him. As an official, if you don't even have this patience, it's better not to be an official.
But now that Wu Ge has made this happen, what will Emperor Jiacheng think when he finds out? Do you think he can't stand the loneliness and flirt with Wu Ge
A good person, obviously drawing his salary from the bottom of the pot.
While thinking about these, Xue Tingxiang couldn't help but think of Emperor Jiacheng who had never seen any movement. Could it be that Emperor Jiacheng had forgotten him
In fact, Emperor Jiacheng really forgot Xue Tingxiang.
Before, he was thinking that someday he would order someone to call this kid and ask him something. Who would have thought that there would be a series of incidents in the imperial court, first a major case of fraud, and then Wu Ge, who was worried and lingered with the ministers for many days. After finally being free, there was another flood in Henan.
Disaster relief is an old topic, as is the lack of money for the household department, and it is still an old topic to investigate the river and local officials. This mess had to be done one by one, and asked one by one, all piled up. Emperor Jiacheng really couldn't remember who Xue Tingxiang was.
When I heard the name again, it was Xue Tingxiang who was brought into the cabinet by Wu Ge Lao.
The anger in Emperor Jiacheng's heart is again anger, and at the same time he hates that iron cannot become steel.
The anger is towards Wu Ge Lao, and the hatred of iron not becoming steel is towards Xue Tingxiang.
"Your Majesty, calm down, maybe things are not as good as they appear." Zheng Ancheng advised from the side.
"It's not like that, what's it like?" Emperor Jiacheng sneered: "The court is in a troubled time, and this old man has not forgotten to make a name for the world. And that kid, who can't stand it for a moment? It's not a big deal!"
Emperor Jiacheng only needed to make it clear that Xue Tingxiang should not hug Wu Ge's old thigh, but should hug his dragon's thigh. It was enough to see that he still valued Xue Tingxiang.
Actually think about it, no! Six yuan and the first, only twenty years old, courageous and resourceful, worthy of a talent.
"Elder Wu is the elder of the pavilion, and the cabinet has the right to mobilize officials below the fifth rank from the six ministries and divisions at will, filling the lack of two rooms in the cabinet. If it was the elder Wu who ordered the transfer, I am afraid that Xue Zhuangyuan would not dare to disobey. Of course, this is the opinion of this old slave, and I hope Your Majesty will see it clearly."
Emperor Jiacheng glanced at Zheng Ancheng before humming and said, "Order someone to look over there."
"Yes."
On the other side, Xue Tingxiang came to pay homage to several elders after they returned from the morning.
This is the rule.
The first person to meet was Wu Ge.
This is not the first time Xue Tingxiang and Wu Ge Lao have met, but it is the first time they have faced each other directly.
At this moment, the dream and reality had a very strange overlap. Looking at the smiling old face on the opposite side, Xue Tingyan's eyes darkened, and the prayer was over.
Mr. Wu Ge got up himself and helped him up: "Xue Xiuzhuan is too outrageous, the old man has not yet thanked you."
Xue Tingxiang followed the custom and put on a puzzled gesture, Wu Ge sighed, and said with a full face: "The person who gave you that day is my unworthy nephew."
At this time, Feng Chengbao came out and said: "Master Cifu is still worrying about this matter? Although his descendants are incompetent, in the end this fact was not granted by you, and you only learned after the fact. Because of this, you were seriously ill, Repeatedly writing letters to plead guilty, you only need to beg for the bones to return to your hometown for retirement, or Your Majesty keeps you again and again, and you will continue to stay in the court."
After a pause, he turned his head to look at Xue Tingxiang, and said, "Second Fu is feeling guilty, and keeps talking about this matter to give you. But you also know that people are inevitably biased, and at the time of the situation, the second assistant took hold of you. The whole body will acquiesce not to say anything. Fortunately, Your Majesty is very careful, Yiyou Branch will try and retake the exam, and you will be repaid for your grievances.
"You are six yuan and the title of the gold list, you should be well deserved, and the secondary assistant has always wanted to compensate you. The position of the two-room book in the cabinet, you don't need to say it clearly. You also know. With the second assistant. With the help of the adults, hello students are learning to do things, and high officials will be no problem in the future."
This is both a sigh and a sigh, and some people specifically explain the mystery, which makes Xue Tingxiang see it again and again. The two elders of the dignified pavilion performed such a performance in front of him.
In other words, the stage has been set up, do you sing or not
Of course you have to sing, how do you know what medicine these people are selling in the gourd if you don't sing!
Xue Tingxiang's young face flashed shock, surprise and other colors, which was as wonderful as a kaleidoscope. Finally, everything was flattered, he bowed his head and bowed again: "The student is really ashamed."
Feng Chengbao said with a smile: "I was invigilating the exam with Mr. Secondary Fu and others, and they could be regarded as your teachers. The students deserve this sound. Do you think so, Mr. Secondary Fu?"
Old Wu Ge nodded with a smile on his face, and said to Xue Tingxiang: "As for the thanks I said before, if it wasn't for what you did that day, maybe the old man was deeply in the mud and didn't know it."
Xue Tingxiang showed a puzzled state, and Wu Ge didn't explain it to him, but said, "You will know later."
It seems to have the best of both worlds, not only Wu Ge's actions have been explained, but even Xue Tingxiang has put on him a layer of pure heart and made great achievements.
In this case, the conversation was naturally very pleasant, and Wu Ge also asked Xue Tingxiang's knowledge and taught him to learn from the sea and to live until he was old.
Outside, because of the sound of laughter from the secondary duty room, the atmosphere in the entire cabinet lobby became strange.
Not to mention the other elders, the people in the middle school of the Imperial Household and the Imperial Household all understood one thing. In the near future, Xue Tingxiang will definitely be the most powerful celebrity in the cabinet lobby.
