Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 146 There is no absolute fairness

When the country is peaceful and the country is prosperous and the people are strong, Lao Zhu began to toss about civil servants.

At the beginning of his ascension to the throne, Lao Zhu fought against Confucianism, and once lifted Mencius out of the Confucian Temple.It was because Lao Zhu didn't agree with some of Confucius' views, which also made scholars all over the world cry and wail.

But now it's all right, Liu Sanwu and others have revised "Mencius Jiewen" into a book.The main thing is to delete words that are harmful to the emperor, which also shows that history books or some so-called classics are inevitably understood and deleted by some later generations.

Lao Zhu has changed a little now, but this will definitely not be No.1 in history.It is even more common to misinterpret some concepts of the sages.

In Shilin, Lao Zhu's reputation was completely ruined.And Zhu Xiongying is not much better, probably because of Lao Zhu's "bright moon in the sky" and Zhu Xiongying's light of rice grains, it seems insignificant, and everyone will not pay much attention to it.

"Grandpa Huang, today those people said that you changed the book of sages and sages, but yesterday they said that your grandson does not care about the common people and does not promote good governance." Zhu Xiongying drank his wine comfortably and joked, "I am worthy of being the grandson of Grandpa Huang. In the history books, it is unavoidable that our grandpa and grandson are tyrants."

Old Zhu also laughed, and joked, "That is to say, you are tossing around. Most of the prisoners in the past dynasties were locked in prison, or they were killed. But you are good. You spend all your time thinking about building roads and cities. It's tossing prisoners."

Zhu Xiongying was not happy, and corrected, "Grandfather, there have been many prisoners serving in the past dynasties, and the grandson just changed his name."

This is a fact, and in the past dynasties, some prisoners were forced to serve hard labor.Even in the so-called modern civilization, there are examples of prisoners being forced to work in this way, but some are directly called "labour reform" and some are not.

Talking about human rights in a feudal society, Zhu Xiongying thinks that is an out-and-out joke.A pragmatist like him doesn't care about fame.What's more, most of those who record history books have their own positions and ideas. Zhu Xiongying will not cater to those people for the sake of a so-called good reputation.

Lao Zhu is not a person who particularly cares about fame, he is also an out-and-out pragmatist.Fame is not important, as long as the country is stable, in Lao Zhu's opinion, it is better than anything else. Those literati can write whatever they like, and they don't care about it after death anyway.

"Grandfather, my grandson has been preparing for the exam these days, and found some bad signs." Zhu Xiongying also became serious, and said to Lao Zhu, "The style of writing in the Northland is not very good, and the students in the Northland are not good at writing. In terms of knowledge, they are indeed not as good as southern scholars."

Lao Zhu nodded, he knew about this, "In the final analysis, the north has been ruled by foreign races for too long, and they are Liao people, Jin people, and Mongolian Yuan people, so they don't have any interest in studying. Even if they read books, they are not reading sage books. .”

"Forget about those alien races in Mengyuan, they are all barbarians." Zhu Xiongying said, "but now it is not normal, my Ming Dynasty ruled the world. We are not the royal family of the southerners, but also the royal family of the northerners. Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty , can’t just be from the south. Otherwise, it would have been a party struggle during the Song Dynasty.”

Geographical origin is extremely important in this era, it is innate political capital, network capital, and it is also innate to form groups.

Lao Zhu also became serious, but he was quite embarrassed, "Ying'er, we are not proficient in reading books, and you are not good at it. The scholars in the north can't study well, so we can't just give him an answer without reading the papers." Jinshi!"

There is no way around this, Zhu Xiongying thinks that he can only come up with some strategies for later generations, the educational resources are different.

Even though there are some students and parents complaining every year, the actual situation is that there are indeed some differences in educational resources in each province and municipality directly under the central government, and there are some differences in university enrollment.Otherwise, why are college entrance examination immigrants so popular? The main reason is that resources are different.

In fact, there are five levels of children's examinations, courtyard examinations, township examinations, public examinations, and palace examinations, which are often divided into levels, which has made the imperial examination a huge system with many levels, grades, regulations, and titles.Those who can participate in the examination are all the best from all provinces and regions.

But Zhu Xiongying feels that this is not enough, because the current Ming Dynasty really needs a little policy tilt.

This is unfair to the scholars in the south, but Zhu Xiongying, as the grandson of the emperor, needs to consider the whole Ming Dynasty, not just the feelings of the scholars in the south.There is no way to avoid such unfairness. It can only be relatively fair, and at the same time, some tilts and trade-offs need to be made.

"Let's set up a north-south list." Zhu Xiongying thought for a while and said, "Anyway, Beiping will move the capital, and the northern scholars will go to Peking to take the exam. The southern scholars will take the exam in Yingtianfu, which will also make those scholars less traveling. Lawton, it's not easy to go out now."

Lao Zhu was silent for a moment, then said, "In this way, the scholars in the south will have resentment."

"That can't be helped. It's better than being dissatisfied with northern scholars." Zhu Xiongying sighed, and said helplessly, "My Ming Dynasty just recovered the Northland, and I am still regaining the hearts of the people. The students in the Northland are theirs. made money."

In the final analysis, Zhu Xiongying now needs to stabilize the hearts of the people in the north, and the scholars in the north are naturally an extremely crucial link.The scholars in the south were a little bit wronged, and now they can only be wronged a little bit. Who made Zhu Xiongying the successor of a unified dynasty.

Lao Zhu remembered something, and said, "In this way, the court hall will probably be in chaos. Now the court hall is mostly composed of southerners, and the land of Huguang, Jiangsu and Zhejiang has a strong literary style."

"Come on, my grandson still wants to be an official in a different place." Zhu Xiongying said with a smile, not counting flattery, "The emperor's grandpa is talented and has a long-term vision. People from the south went to be officials in the north, and people from the north went to the south. Not at home. As an official, there is less Goulian."

In fact, this kind of thing is not only created by Lao Zhu. Such policies have existed before and will continue to exist in the future.

Lao Zhu and Zhu Xiongying didn't make a decision right away either, they just brought up this topic now, so they naturally needed to think things over carefully.Even if the grandpa and grandson made up their minds, they would definitely discuss this matter in the court.

The authority of Lao Zhu, the founding emperor, is unparalleled, and it is not a problem at all to say that he acted arbitrarily.It's just that there are some things that really need to be explained, and they need to be discussed with the courtiers, and there may be some unexpected gains.

The matter of the imperial examination is really a big matter, and Zhu Xiongying actually has no way to be absolutely fair.He is also very clear that there will always be some 'smart people' who want to take advantage of policy loopholes, and such things are definitely unavoidable.

What he can do is to formulate a policy that looks as fair as possible to reduce the possibility of making mistakes.

The matter of the imperial examination still needs to be considered and pondered slowly. If such a matter is to be perfected, it does not mean that it can be implemented immediately when the North and South List is mentioned. There is still a series of work that needs to be completed.

Zhu Xiongying considers himself to be a relatively patient person, and he has never thought about swallowing a fat man in one go. He knows that such a thing really cannot be rushed, and there is no need to think about getting it immediately at this moment. A few grades, a little patience doesn't hurt.

What's more, the most important thing right now is to weaken Jin Yiwei. The angry Jin Yiwei needs to restrain his edge.At this time, Zhu Xiongying also needs to take the opportunity to simplify and sharpen Jin Yiwei.

In fact, in the final analysis, in the next period of time, Jin Yiwei needs to consider serving his master again, which is probably the most critical thing.

As long as old Zhu is willing to delegate power, Zhu Xiongying naturally doesn't need to worry so much.It is quite exciting to think about building a secret service agency of his own. Zhu Xiongying is also very concerned about this agency. He doesn't want to be blind or deaf, and he doesn't want to just listen to civil and military officials talking about things outside the palace.

Lao Zhu is an insecure person, and Zhu Xiongying is actually similar. His trust in others is relatively limited, and he believes more in what he sees and hears.

Zhuo Jing carefully drafted the memorial, he wanted to fire this shot, not just to complete the task assigned by the emperor grandson.Zhuo Jing also felt that this was the cultivation of the emperor's grandson, because as long as this matter is completed, he will have some reputation in the court and in the world.

This kind of opportunity must be seized. If such a thing cannot be done well, it may be difficult to get some really important tasks from the emperor's grandson in the future, and it is unlikely that the emperor's grandson will truly regard him as a confidant .

It was another early morning, and Zhu Xiongying was also used to leaving the warm bed. It was basically impossible for him to sleep late. Who made him the grandson of the emperor.

But even if you become an emperor in the future, you won't be able to sleep in late, unless the Taoist emperor does not go to court, then you may have the opportunity to sleep until you wake up naturally.Otherwise, start working with the stars and the moon, and do your best for the stability of Daming.

The civil and military nobles have been arranged according to their ranks. This is not for Zhu Xiongying to see, but for the records of the Censor Council. No one wants to lose their official titles or even be punished by His Majesty the Emperor because of such things.

Facing the increasingly dignified and dignified emperor grandson, civil and military officials are still under some pressure.Especially Zhu Xiongying, who was standing at the head of the class, closed his eyes and rested his mind. The others didn't know what to say at this time, and they didn't dare to say anything more.

In fact, Wu Xun is not bad in this regard, for example, a certain gangster who returned to the court is not stingy.It can't be said that it is one, it is a pair.

Chang Mao's uncle, Lan Yu, is an arrogant and domineering person, while Chang Mao is an outright gangster. The existence of these two makes countless civil servants feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

But Lan Yu didn't have such awareness, he was Taisun's banner in the military.And Chang Mao is already prepared, as long as anyone dares to disobey the emperor's grandson, he will be full of old fists first, and at worst he will be fined, and it doesn't matter even if he is cut from the rank, he only cares about the emperor's grandson.

When the whip sounded, Zhu Xiongying led all the civil and military officials towards Fengtian Temple, and went up!
