Chapter 615 The Big Shuffle
Although Emperor Jiajing convened a "group of ten people" from inside and outside, plus Qin Dewei, on the issue of candidates for Zhan Shifu, the opinions of the cabinet were still the main ones, and the foreign court had little say.

Because Zhan Shifu, like Hanlin and the cabinet, belonged to the inner court on the boundary of power, and too much interference from the foreign court was considered ulterior motives.

After the third and fourth ranks were agreed, the first assistant Xia Yan continued to play to the emperor: "Among the officials in Chunfang, the left and right bastards of the fifth rank are Wang Jiao and Qin Dewei respectively. I think they can be used."

Then Yan Song, a senior scholar, objected: "Qin Dewei is frivolous, he cannot assist the East Palace!"

Xia Yan looked at Qin Dewei who was still silent in surprise, and said to Yan Song: "Why not Qin Dewei?"

Yan Song replied with good reason: "Qin Dewei is too young and his character is uncertain. I don't know what he will be like in another year. How can he use an unpredictable person in the East Palace?"

From the example just now, it can be seen that Emperor Jiajing's criteria for the selection of Zhan Shifu officials are those who are relatively old, who have withstood a long-term test, and who are determined to be loyal and will not deteriorate again.

After all, the prince is young, if he chooses the wrong person, he will easily be manipulated by people with bad intentions, or his views will be skewed.

Huo Tao, the imperial censor of the Zuo capital, also added a very cruel sentence: "Based on Qin Dewei's age, if he has tutored him for decades, there may be something about Yi Yin."

This means that Qin Dewei is too young, and the time to tutor the prince may be extremely long, and there will be some problems that cannot be lost.

18 years ago, Huo Tao, who was a hero in the ceremony, is sure that for the suspicious Emperor Jiajing, he would like this set the most.

At this moment, Qin Dewei finally stood up and said simply and neatly: "Please resign, You Bastard!"

This was the first time Qin Dewei spoke after going to the palace, but everyone was very surprised by what Qin Dewei said.

This is unscientific. According to customary thinking, the bully Qin Dewei should fight Yan Song and Huo Tao for [-] rounds.

So no one thought, why did Qin Dewei just admit defeat without saying a word?
Speaking of which, Qin Dewei has been in court for several years, and everyone has never seen Qin Dewei so cowardly.

Emperor Jiajing, who hadn't made a decision yet, was also quite surprised, and subconsciously asked, "Is it because of your anger?"

This kind of small-scale meeting of a dozen or so individuals is relatively casual and practical, and does not require too much prestige.

Emperor Jiajing said whatever he thought of, and he suspected that Qin Dewei was playing petty temper on purpose.

Qin Dewei replied very firmly and positively: "The minister proposed to build the East Palace, which is for the sake of the world, and also to understand the worries of His Majesty's southern tour, not for his own selfishness!

So please resign from the right concubine to show your selflessness!It is by no means to be angry with the words of Yan Song and Huo Tao. A gentleman is magnanimous, and he doesn't bother to refute the words of a villain! "

Emperor Jiajing thought for a while and said, "Yes."

Everyone was puzzled, you, Qin Dewei, proposed to set up the East Palace, and then you got nothing, but lost a right concubine instead, what are you planning?
Or, is Qin Dewei really selfless?
No one else spoke for a while, Qin Dewei took the opportunity to play again: "In addition, I have two advices, I hope your majesty will listen and accept them.

The first article, after Li Xian made the rule that non-Hanlin not to join the cabinet 70 years ago, Ci ministers did not experience common affairs at all, and they would rather Cilin die in old age than move out.

I have been dissatisfied with this atmosphere for a long time!Although it is difficult to change, I hope that by resetting the officials of the East Palace, there will be changes, and more officials from other places will be called! "

When Zhang Cong and Gui E were in power, they had deep conflicts with the Hanlin, and a large number of Hanlin were expelled and released. Qin Dewei was talking about these people.

When the others heard Qin Dewei's words, they were shocked again.

It's fine for others to say that, but you, Qin Dewei, are the youngest number one scholar in history and the biggest beneficiary of the system of Ci officials, yet you are against the system!

Qin Dewei continued to play: "Second article, although the East Palace officials are established, they cannot be completely independent without upper-level supervision! I propose that Yan Song, the last cabinet scholar, be in charge of the affairs of the East Palace!"

Everyone was shocked beyond measure, Qin Dewei was simply too abnormal!Almost every sentence is the opposite of usual!

Just now Yan Song deliberately squeezed out Qin Dewei, Qin Dewei was fine if he didn't confront him, but he recommended Yan Song backhandedly?

The basic common sense in the officialdom is that whoever controls the East Palace will control the future. That's why they are so eager for official positions in the East Palace. What they want is the power of the dragon.

You, Qin Dewei, actually suggested that Yan Song be in charge of the East Palace, so what?After being selfless, did he repay kindness with kindness?

You, Qin Dewei, came here today just for the purpose of making a fool?Can you do something to make everyone understand?
But after Qin Dewei finished speaking, he didn't have any more explanations, and only retreated to the corner under the surprised and inexplicable eyes.

No matter what other people guess, whoever wants to be the official of the Eastern Palace should go, anyway, Qin Dewei has no interest in it!
In history, after being carefully cultivated for 13 years, the crown prince died inexplicably at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and directly deceived a group of officials who hoped to follow the dragon.

It also caused Emperor Jiajing to vomit blood and doubt his life, and then there was the allusion of "The Two Dragons Don't Meet".

So if you evaluate Daming's worst Donggong team, this year is definitely one of the strong candidates.

Anyway, in the historical memory, this wave of East Palace officials basically went to the street except for the hard-nosed Xu Jie, so why did Qin Dewei join in the fun?
That's why Qin Dewei didn't hesitate when he resigned from the right concubine's position, and was even very quiet, and didn't recommend anyone close to him to the East Palace.

And seeing other people stuffing cronies into the East Palace one after another, he was still secretly happy. Wouldn't it be nice to wait for these cronies to fall into the big pit together after 13 years?
And the most important thing is to recommend Yan Song, the general commander of the East Palace, which can prompt Yan Song to spend a lot of energy and resources in the East Palace. After 13 years, you can laugh and watch Yan Song's bamboo basket fetching water in vain.

With the information advantage of foresight, prediction is so cool!
Rather than inviting the East Palace, it is better to say that he has dug a big hole. Qin Dewei feels that his long-term operation spanning 13 years has the level of atmosphere.

Look at the whole world, one counts as one, no one can understand themselves!

Although everyone was surprised by Qin Dewei's strange behavior, the discussion still had to continue.

Emperor Jiajing was noncommittal about Qin Dewei's suggestions for the time being, and let the officials continue to discuss other officials in the East Palace.

The bureau in Zhan Shifu Fangju refers to the Bureau of Economics and Economics, which has the official position of washing horses.

Xia Yan recommended a candidate, Tanhua in the second year of Jiajing, Xu Jie who was relegated to the place where Zhang Fujing, the former chief assistant, was angered.

Qin Dewei can only say that among the people you have promoted in your life, Master Xia, you are the only one who got it right.

Then I heard the names of Luo Hongxian, the number one scholar in the eighth year of Jiajing, and Tang Shunzhi, the first scholar in the eighth year of Jiajing.

Both of these two went back to their hometowns after offending the former chief assistant Zhang Fujing, and this time they were all recalled by Emperor Jiajing regardless of previous suspicions.

It was just that Huo Tao's face was not very good-looking. As Zhang Fujing's accomplice and close comrade-in-arms, seeing those who contradicted him were recalled one by one, he didn't know how he felt.

It should be said that the East Palace team prepared by Emperor Jiajing for the crown prince was not careless, and it can be said to be star-studded today.But in the end, good luck tricked people, and finally they collectively rushed to the street.

While Qin Dewei was listening to other people's nominations, while secretly commenting in his heart, he suddenly heard the scholar Gu Dingchen recommending Hua Cha as Zuo Zanshan.

Puchi!Qin Dewei laughed suddenly, and couldn't hold back when he heard the name suddenly.

Everyone wants to hit someone for some reason, what's so ridiculous about it?It's enough for you, Qin Dewei, to play mysteries endlessly today!
Another stalk that only Qin Dewei himself knows. If I remember correctly, this Hua Cha's nickname in his hometown will be Taishi Hua.

That's right, it is the prototype character of the Hua Taishi in Washington in the folk tale of Tang Bohu spotting Qiuxiang in later generations.

Although Huacha is actually 30 years younger than Tang Bohu, the folklore is not so much researched.

"Qin Dewei!" Suddenly a voice came from the throne.Qin Dewei was also a well-trained courtier, and immediately came out as a reflex.

But Emperor Jiajing ignored Qin Dewei, and instead asked Xu Zan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, "What is Qin Dewei's current position?"

With so many ministers under his command, the official system of the Ming Dynasty is quite intertwined and complicated, especially the official positions of the ministers seem to be similar, and it is impossible for Emperor Jiajing to remember all the official titles of each person accurately.

Fortunately, after worrying about Qin Dewei's appointment, Xu Zan was able to answer it, and immediately said:

"Qin Dewei has resigned from the right concubine, and currently he is only studying as a bachelor of the fifth rank, and also serves as the admiral of the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple. There is another edict for promotion, but it has not yet been drawn up."

The situation is a bit complicated, and Emperor Jiajing hasn't figured it out for a while.

Qin Dewei immediately went forward and said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about your official position. As long as you can serve Your Majesty, you don't care much about things outside your body. It doesn't matter even if you are downgraded to the fifth rank!"

After this "reminder", Emperor Jiajing finally reacted,
Qin Dewei's fifth rank is due to the addition of the right concubine.And just now Qin Dewei was happily approved to resign from the right concubine, and there was no other compensation, so Qin Dewei was just a fifth-rank waiter studying for a bachelor.

So it is equivalent to saying that Qin Dewei has been downgraded from the fifth rank to the second rank for no reason.

Originally, the credit for the conquest of Annan would not be rewarded, but the reward for the revision of the Queen Mother Jiang's "Women's Training" has not yet been implemented. As a result, Qin Dewei was demoted just now, which is really bullying.

Even the mean and ungrateful emperor felt a little embarrassed when he thought of this.

Qin Dewei took the opportunity to say again: "I said just now that I don't want to see Ci officials enclose themselves. I only know that finding chapters and excerpts are words from the bottom of my heart! The practice of transferring Ci officials to courtiers should start with Qin Dewei!"

The rest of the people were taken aback. You, Qin Dewei, are not just talking about your anti-system, but you actually mean it?
Just now Qin Dewei deliberately took the initiative to resign from the right bastard, selling "innocent" and being downgraded miserably, waiting for this opportunity now.

He was very clear-headed. After the end of his southern tour, Emperor Jiajing would enter the mode of cultivating immortals in a disheartened manner, and he would basically not go to court in the future.

It can be said that even Hanlin Cichen will have little chance to meet the emperor in the future.So what's the use of continuing to be a court official?

If you can't get in touch with the emperor's courtiers, it's pure display!Instead of wasting time in Hanyuan, it is better to transfer to the outer court to gain some real power.

In this situation, Emperor Jiajing, who already felt guilty, would not treat himself badly, would he?

At least the fourth-rank officials with real power started out. The Shaoqing of Dali Temple and the General Secretary of the General Administration are all very good, or the governor of Beizhili, the capital of the right, is also good.

But others couldn't understand Qin Dewei's train of thought, and I really felt that Qin Dewei had lost his mind and went crazy today, as if he was being suppressed by someone's nightmare!
Emperor Jiajing looked at Qin Dewei suspiciously and remained silent for a long time.

Today, everyone else is trying to block people in the Eastern Palace, but you Qin Dewei is the only one who does the opposite and deliberately resigns from the official position in the Eastern Palace!

Even if you don't even want to be a Ci minister, you actually want to transfer to the outer dynasty!
Or is it deliberately acting out of the ordinary to attract attention?But Emperor Jiajing didn't think that Qin Dewei was such a superficial person who did things aimlessly.

After pondering for a long time, Emperor Jiajing opened his golden mouth again and said: "It seems a bit hasty to allow Qin Dewei to resign from the right concubine just now, and it really treats meritorious ministers badly."

Qin Dewei hastily said: "This is Your Majesty's sage, I am indeed not suitable to assist the East Palace!"

Emperor Jiajing still ignored Qin Dewei, and asked the first assistant: "Is there still a vacancy for the officials of the Eastern Palace?"

Xia Yan looked at the record and replied: "It has just been negotiated, and there are no vacancies now."

Emperor Jiajing ordered: "Then add another official position."

Xia Shoufu was a little confused, what to add?
Emperor Jiajing added: "Restore Zhan Shifu Zuochunfang University scholar."

Xia Shoufu was even more confused. Eight or ninety years ago, the imperial court stopped setting up Zuo and Youchunfang University Scholars.

In the earliest days, the cabinet ministers had borrowed the official title of Zuochunfang University Bachelor.

Later, the cabinet ministers changed their official names to Diange Dashi, such as Wenyuange Dashi, Wuyingdian Dashi, etc., instead of borrowing Zuochunfang Dashi.

But the official title of Zuochunfang University is too domineering, and it is easy to confuse it with the name of Cabinet University, so it was dropped.

The ministers were speechless, what the hell is the emperor going to do?

Although everyone is used to Emperor Jiajing often having convulsions, this emperor can always convulse again from unexpected angles.

Only then did Emperor Jiajing look at Qin Dewei, and continued to decree: "Appoint Qin Dewei, who is also a Zuochunfang University scholar, not to participate in the lectures of the East Palace, but only to supervise."

All the ministers were in an uproar, His Majesty loved Qin Dewei too much, could it be because he is a "Jiajing man"?
Qin Dewei has clearly stated that he wants to go to the foreign court, but His Majesty is reluctant to let him go?
Even the official title of "Zuochunfang University Scholar", which has passed away for nearly 100 years, has been dug out and given to Qin Dewei!

Although this official is only a fifth-rank official, his name is "Grand Scholar"!And because of the historical origin, it can be called an extremely special official position!
But this appointment, like a bolt from the blue, directly hit Qin Dewei's head, and he even forgot the etiquette of thanking him.

The East Palace is a big pit, I have already escaped, why does the emperor have to drag me back?Are you sick?
Qin Dewei hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty! What can I do for my minister, I can't afford it! I dare not accept orders!"

Emperor Jiajing sneered secretly, although he couldn't understand why you, Qin Dewei, wanted to run away, but it doesn't matter, I can keep you from running away, let's see what you are thinking!
The more you don't want to, the more I want to use you!Authority is exercised by the emperor, never according to the ideas of the courtiers!
