November 18th.

Zhang Juzheng, Gao Yi, Lu Tiaoyang, Wang Chonggu and other scholars of the cabinet said that the position of Liang Yi is the successor of Qian and Kun; the origin of all changes, the Yao family and the country, the king listens to external governance, and later spreads internal teaching, this is the great meaning of heaven and earth

Also, please establish Zhonggong.

Leave it on but not send it out.

Two days later.

The superior officer of the Hall of Rites, together with the officials in charge, made speeches to persuade the Queen Mother of Our Lady of Mercy, the Queen Mother of Our Lady of Mercy, to give a special order to the lady in charge of Jianqiu, to make a sacred bow, and as soon as the water fell and the stone came out, I begged the Holy King to stand up early.

Middle palace.

Leave it on but not send it out.

Three more days.

The officials of all the ministries, temples, courtyards, halls, and officials in charge, citing the ancestors and the past affairs of Han Hui and Han Wu of the previous dynasties, please give me your invitation again and again.

The next day, I went to the Imperial Palace.

Nai said, I am near, the ministers are urging me, and the two palaces have kind orders. I am young and virtuous, and I hesitate again and again. I respect the destiny of heaven, inherit the foundation of my ancestors, and work hard day and night, hoping to protect this legacy and pass it on to future generations.

The family members are only a wedding ceremony, so they are prosperous and civilized. Humanity is so important that they dare not say goodbye.

Therefore, the Liu family of Hangzhou Prefecture was registered as the empress, and the Li family of Yangzhou Prefecture was designated as the imperial concubine.

The Han family in Zhangde Prefecture was concubine Yi, and the Zhang family in Dongchang Prefecture was concubine Shun.

Take the Wu family of Xi'an Prefecture as Jieyu, serving as the Empress Dowager Shengrensheng. The Wang family of Kaifeng Prefecture is the noble person, serving the Empress Dowager Shengsheng as the concubine. The rest are all female officials, serving the Holy Mothers of the two palaces.

The Ministry of Rites was ordered to prepare the ceremony and select a day to hear the news.

…

The emperor's wedding is an important act of humanity.

In addition to the importance of setting an example of human relations, there is also an even more important thing - a wedding means the emperor's personal rule.

This is why the ministers were so unwilling to be followed by others and started to report.

Just like during a court meeting, the courtiers bending down to salute may not be worthy of the emperor's glance, but if anyone still straightens his back, it will be clearly visible to the throne.

Incomplete loyalty can easily be seen as completely unfaithful.

Because of this, for the emperor's wedding, all ministries and departments are working hard. If they have money, they will contribute money and strength.

Even the Hanlin Academy, which had always been quiet, was working overtime.

It was almost dusk, and Wang Xilie, who usually should have returned home by this time, was still busy in the duty room, sometimes looking through classics, sometimes writing furiously.

Most of the affairs of the wedding ceremony were handled by the Ministry of Rites and the Inner Court, but since the Hanlin Academy was good at writing Qing Ci, he naturally had to contribute.

For example, Wang Xilie, who is in charge of the Hanlin Academy, can only do the registration of the empress and imperial concubine personally.

Wang Xilie put aside the draft of the imperial concubine's brochure and began to think hard about the queen's brochure.

He took up his pen and wrote the routine "The governance of the country is based on the integrity of the family" and then paused briefly.

As for what comes after, well, the allusions to the three generations are definitely indispensable.

Thinking of this, Wang Xilie continued to write - "... Gui Rui and Concubine Yu lighted up the destiny of Chonghua; Tushan Yiyu gave birth to the foundation of civilization and destiny."

After writing this sentence, you have to check the information.

Wang Xilie took the Queen's birth certificate sent by the Supervisor of Ceremonies closer and looked at it carefully.

After a while, he finally had an idea.

He put down the pen and wrote - "Ask you, Mr. Liu, the stars show down, the Taiyuan portends auspiciousness, I bow to Shuzhe to support the sky, and the body is peaceful and chaste and responds to the earth."

As soon as this sentence was completed, Wang Xilie paused as if feeling something.

He reread it to himself and shook his head.

After pondering for a moment, he took up his pen and crossed out the eight characters in the middle, changing it to "The Beidou is showing off, and the Ming Sheng is auspicious."

After finishing writing, he smacked for a while, and finally nodded with satisfaction - this way, while retaining the original meaning, he could also point out that Liu was born on a spring night, his native place was in Hangzhou, and his home was near the West Lake. It was more interesting than the previous sentence.

More appropriate.

Wang Xilie was thinking about how to write the next article.

Suddenly, I saw an additional figure in my peripheral vision.

His whole body trembled subconsciously, and the pen in his hand lost its grip and fell on the table.

Wang Xilie was suddenly frightened when he was concentrating. When he came back to his senses, his first reaction was to scold him. Someone in the Hanlin Academy dared to enter his room without warning!

However, after seeing the person clearly, he immediately had a second reaction.

Wang Xilie put his pen on the inkstone, smiled apologetically at the uninvited guest, and saluted with his hands raised: "When did Yuan Fu arrive? I just fell into a trance, but Yuan Fu has been waiting for a long time."

It was Zhang Juzheng, the chief minister of the cabinet, and the old god was there, sitting aside.

Zhang Juzheng didn't hold back either. He stood up and clasped his fists in return: "After Fang Yamen, I was originally waiting for Zizhong outside the courtyard, but Zhou Xima said that Zizhong was still working on the paperwork, so I looked for him and came in."

Then he explained: "I wanted to call out just now, but I saw that Zizhong was lost in poetry, so I couldn't bear to interrupt."

While Wang Xilie listened, he bent down and rummaged for tea leaves under the table.

He said in a pleasant manner: "It's not like I'm lost in poetry or writing. I'm clearly scratching my head and scratching my head at the book. I'm a shallow scholar, so Yuan Fu shouldn't make fun of me."

After saying that, he took out the tea leaves and tea sets, walked to Zhang Juzheng, stretched out his hand to ask for a seat.

Zhang Juzheng sat down and said comfortingly: "Your Majesty's wedding date is a bit urgent, and your hard work has paid off."

After Wang Xilie brewed the tea, he sat down and said, "As a minister, being able to write a book for the emperor is a blessing that I have been waiting for. How can I say that it is hard work."

"But the wedding date... is indeed a bit urgent."

According to his opinion, just like Emperor Wuzong, getting married at the age of fifteen is in line with the golden mean.

Zhang Juzheng did not elaborate on the wedding date, but explained with a little emotion: "Time waits for no one. Since everyone is convinced, it is time to take charge of the government. It is better than going fishing whenever you have free time."

Wang Xilie personally poured tea for Zhang Juzheng and explained: "It is a good thing to be in charge of the government, but your majesty is still young after all. I am just afraid that your majesty will not know the restraint and hurt the foundation."

We still need to make our position clear.

Lest people think that he, Wang Xilie, does not support the emperor's pro-government.

Zhang Juzheng took the tea cup and shook his head: "I have already mentioned this matter to the two palaces, and I will use discretion."

If the emperor wants to favor the queen, he also has to go through the process.

Not to mention the other frivolous rituals of greeting you in front of the palace and having the ceremony officials play music.

The most important thing is that after the emperor has an idea, he needs to get the consent of the two palaces and wait until the two palaces issue an edict before he can do it.

With Mu Zong's lessons learned, the two palaces will definitely control the emperor well.

To take a step back, Zhang Juzheng heard that when the emperor selected the queen some time ago, he gave up the most beautiful Wu family with a look of struggle, only granted Jieyu the title, and placed her next to the Queen Mother Chen.

Under such a brilliant performance, there seems to be no reason to worry too much about the emperor's indulgence.

Wang Xilie nodded, accepting this statement.

He poured himself a cup of tea: "Yuan Fu is looking for me today. What's the important thing?"

Although the cabinet bachelor is technically a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, he generally does not go to the Hanlin Academy in person to negotiate official matters like this.

Most likely it's something closely related.

Zhang Juzheng did not get straight to the point, but began to strike from the side: "The first-level scholars of this class, the Shujishi, are about to finish their studies in the Hanlin Academy, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs will assign them jobs and decentralize them to different places at the end of the month."

He paused and asked, "Do you have any complaints?"

The Shujishi elected at the end of April will study from May to the end of November, which is exactly half a year.

Wang Xilie was accustomed to the detours in the officialdom. Following Zhang Juzheng's topic, he smiled bitterly: "How can I not complain? Although with discretionary preferential treatment and Yijia's initiative to ask for release, these common people were able to volunteer."

"But it's hard to complain openly, so you can't help but gossip secretly. Now everyone is saying that our predecessors enjoyed the benefits, but then turned around and blocked the way for personal gain."

This kind of accusation is particularly lethal among scholars.

The former shujis enjoyed the benefits and ascended to high positions, then turned around and sent them to other places for those who came after them. The selfishness in them was enough to make people feel indignant.

It is especially easy to undermine the legitimacy of the New Deal.

And Wang Xilie, who was in charge of the Hanlin Academy and was caught in the middle, could only express his pressure to the chief minister with a wry smile.

Zhang Juzheng pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The cabinet also heard about it, so..."

"What Zi Xiang and I want to do is to give them a little explanation so that they can get through this wave of complaints from the scholars."

"If this subject is established, it will be easier to handle in the future."

When Wang Xilie heard this, his eyes flashed.

He picked up the tea cup and took a sip to cover it up.

After a moment, Wang Xilie cast a questioning look at Zhang Juzheng: "Yuan Fu might as well speak frankly."

Zhang Juzheng put the tea cup in his hand to warm it, and met Wang Xilie's gaze: "I want to put the inside out."
