Chapter 785: Astonished, Jane is in the emperor's heart
"I retire."
After Emperor Jiajing dictated the imperial edict, there was another secret edict instructing Huang Jin, and Zhu Ping'an kowtowed and exited the inner hall. , waiting in the outer hall.
There is a bronze tripod with four dragons and eight trigrams in the outer hall. Three slender sticks of sandalwood are burning inside the tripod. The scarlet sparks are very eye-catching in the hall.
Zhu Pingan stood in front of the tripod, waiting quietly.
While Zhu Ping'an was waiting, Emperor Jiajing had already given a secret order to Huang Jin. Huang Jin was the director of the East Factory and deeply trusted by Emperor Jiajing. It was best to leave some matters to him.
"Huang Ban, go get the life-saving box from the dark box in my study."
After giving the secret edict, Emperor Jiajing ordered Huang Jin to fetch the life-saving box from the dark box in the study. This life-saving box is named after the allusion of "I will take care of myself three times a day", which is equivalent to Emperor Jiajing's memorandum. Emperor Jiajing would often take out the life-saving box and read the contents inside to make life-saving memos.
"According to the order."
Huang Jin took the order and went to the study room separated from the inner hall. He walked to a bookshelf and pressed the red eyes of a lifelike jade dragon on the bookshelf. Then a hidden compartment on the bookshelf automatically opened, and a sandalwood box was recorded.
Huang Jin carefully took out the sandalwood box, held the study in both hands, came to Emperor Jiajing, and handed it to Emperor Jiajing respectfully with both hands.
Emperor Jiajing opened the sandalwood box and took out a piece of exquisite Korean tribute paper.
Goryeo tribute paper is North Korea's tribute paper. It is paper made from cotton and silkworm cocoons in North Korea. It is as white as damask and as tough as silk. It is very suitable for writing and preservation. It is the noble paper.
Seeing Emperor Jiajing take out this piece of paper, Huang Jin's eyes couldn't help but jump.
This piece of paper is no stranger to Huang Jin.
After all, there is only one file in the box, using this kind of Korean tribute paper.
After Emperor Jiajing took out the piece of paper, without any instructions, Huang Jin took the initiative to grind the ink with great discernment and handed over the brush with both hands.
Emperor Jiajing took the brush and wrote three words "Zhu Pingan" on this piece of paper.
In addition to the three newly written words Zhu Pingan, there are three names on this piece of paper, namely "Yan Shifan", "Gao Gong", and "Zhang Juzheng".
Others don't know it, but Huang Jin is well aware of the famous name of this piece of paper. Huang Jin calls this piece of paper the "Hidden Phase List".
All the names listed on this paper were considered as potential signs by Emperor Jiajing and would be focused on.
Not only that.
This piece of paper will also be passed on to the next emperor as an important political legacy. Although I don’t know whether it is the third prince who is more than a month older or the more favored fourth prince, it is certain that when one of them is When someone succeeds to the throne, Emperor Jiajing will pass this "potential prime minister list" to his successor, who will become a member of the new dynasty, or a minister who cares about life.
Needless to say, Yan Shifan is known as the number one genius in the Ming Dynasty. However, Yan Shifan's name was outlined with a red pen, as if it was erased, but also as if it was focused on.
Of course, Huang Jin knew the deep meaning of this stroke...
Gao Gong's name has been on the list for several years. Huang Jin forgot how Gao Gong was included in the potential prime minister list in the first place, but Huang Jin knew that Emperor Jiajing had been paying attention to Gao Gong. Although Gao Gong is now the chief lecturer of Prince Yu's Mansion, in fact, Huang Jin knew that Emperor Jiajing originally wanted to appoint Gao Gong as the chief lecturer of Prince Jing's Mansion, but because Prince Jing's mother-in-law, Concubine Jing, heard about it, , I disliked Emperor Jiajing for letting Gao Gong do this. A little-known little man served as the chief lecturer of his prince, so after more than a month of blowing the pillow wind, Emperor Jiajing finally asked Emperor Jing to replace King Jing with a prestigious scholar, and Gao Gong was appointed instead. The chief lecturer of Prince Yu's Mansion.
In fact, when it comes to this, Huang Jin feels that the saying that women have long hair and short knowledge is very reasonable.
Huang Jin was deeply impressed by Zhang Juzheng's name, which was only listed by Emperor Jiajing at the beginning of this year. However, as early as two years ago when Zhang Juzheng wrote "On Current Affairs", he had already entered Emperor Jiajing's field of vision.
Huang Jin remembered that day two years ago. On that day, the cabinet mixed Zhang Juzheng's "On Current Affairs" with the memorial and presented it to the preview. After Emperor Jiajing read Zhang Juzheng's memorial, he He smiled and commented, "Childish, but talented." His expression showed appreciation. After commenting, Huang Jin even asked Huang Jin to read the memorial. Huang Jin remembered clearly that the "On Current Affairs" was a political treatise written by Zhang Juzheng in imitation of Jia Yi's "Chen Zhengshi Shu" of the Western Han Dynasty. In this essay, Zhang Juzheng focused on the issues of "clan", "talent", and "bureaucracy". "issues", "arms" issues and "fiscal revenue" issues, and proposed the five major crises at present. It is hoped that the province can take timely measures to reform bad policies. However, Zhang Juzheng did not propose any measures or reform suggestions in Shangshuzhong.
Although Emperor Jiajing did not give Zhang Juzheng any response after reading this memorial, Huang Jin knew that Zhang Juzheng had successfully entered Emperor Jiajing's field of vision.
After the review, Emperor Jiajing observed for another two years, and then at the beginning of this year he made up his mind to include Zhang Juzheng's name on the list.
It can be said that the names of the above three people were fortunate enough to be included in this potential list after several years of observation and attention by Emperor Jiajing.
But
Zhu Ping'an is a complete exception. He was admitted to the officialdom this year, and it was only less than half a year before he was listed on the potential prime minister list by Emperor Jiajing.
This shocked Huang Jin.
Recall that Zhu Pingan won the first prize this year, was promoted to one rank a few days later, was awarded the title of Cabinet Secretary a few months later, and is now listed on the list of potential prime ministers. Moreover, based on Zhu Pingan's achievements in inspecting Taicang, he will wait until the Taicang case is completed. When it comes to rewards for merit, he will definitely be promoted again... This speed is simply unprecedented.
"Huang Ban, what do you think of Zhu Pingan?" Emperor Jiajing asked after writing Zhu Pingan's name and scanning Huang Jin.
“Although the old slave thinks that the number one scholar is young, his ability is not inferior to that of some experienced officials. What is especially rare is that he is dedicated to his duties. The old slave heard that the number one scholar was taking inventory of the Taicang bank this afternoon. , in order to show his innocence, and in order to smooth the inventory, in front of dozens of officials , took off all his clothes in public, bare his buttocks, walked into the bank naked, and counted the money in the bank vault... The old slave heard that everyone was frightened by the scene of the No. 1 Scholar's bare buttocks..." Huang Jin replied respectfully, and specifically mentioned Zhu Ping'an's naked butt inspection of the bank.
Of course Huang Jin would not tell, Emperor Jiajing would know sooner or later. After all, the situation of Zhu Ping'an's inventory had been reported to Emperor Jiajing by Dongchang's secret report for a long time. However, Yan Shoufu reported the matter in the afternoon, and Princess Ning'an just came to bother Emperor Jiajing, so Emperor Jiajing hadn't come yet. Just watch.
“Oh? There is such a thing.”
Emperor Jiajing screamed in surprise when he heard this, and even in his anger, he couldn't help but curl his lips when he thought of the scene where Zhu Ping'an took off his clothes without saying a word in front of everyone.
"Haha, this Zhu Ping'an! Why does he have to check the bank for me with his bare buttocks? How brave! If all of our officials in the Ming Dynasty can be like Zhu Ping'an, then this emperor will That's great." Emperor Jiajing sighed as he curled his lips.
Seeing the curvature of the corners of Emperor Jiajing's mouth, Huang Jinxin couldn't help but cheer for Zhu Ping'an's naked butt to check the bank. This clothes takes off well, it is simply amazing. Once this clothes is taken off, it can It got into the heart of Emperor Jiajing.
Jane is in the emperor's heart, Jane is in the emperor's heart.
The simpler you take off your clothes, the more you are in the heart of the emperor.
Huang Jin rarely showed such trust in his eyes when Emperor Jiajing mentioned the name of an official.
As soon as she took off her stunning appearance, Jane was in the emperor's heart, with unprecedented trust.
Zhu Pingan, I am optimistic about you. (End of this chapter)
