Emperor Ming's grandson

There is no way for the six ministers to calm down now, because those things in the memorial are obviously a huge trouble.

Where is the Imperial College?
That is the highest school of Ming Dynasty, although there will be some related households, but everyone knows that the students in the Guozijian are the elites of the Ming Dynasty.It can also be said that you are the reserve base for officials and the source of continuous blood production for the civil official group.

In the Yuan Dynasty, it was difficult for most Han people to become high-ranking officials. The promotion system of officials in the Yuan Dynasty did have a lot to criticize.The reason why Emperor Hongwu built Guozijian was indeed because more officials were needed to manage the place, and the Ming Dynasty really needed their official system.

The imperial examination system is indeed extremely important, and this is the most important reliance of the civil service system.The Guozijian represents the most elite students in the imperial examination system.

But now it's a good thing, Guozijian Jijiu is discussing state affairs in the prison, and there are still many students who follow suit.

Guozijian was supposed to be a place to study hard. You must know that in the early days of Emperor Hongwu, the students of Guozijian were under great academic pressure. They had to face endless exams and continuous assessment.Corporal punishment and the like are commonplace. Some students choose to commit suicide because of too much pressure. This is not one or two things.

Many officials are aware of these things and don't think there is any problem.This is what the Imperial College should be like. Students here should keep their ears to the outside world, prepare for the next exam, and work hard to become an official at any time.

But now, fortunately, Guozijian has become a place where Confucian scholars talk and talk, a place where teaching and educating people should be taught, and many people who talk about it have poured in.

Everyone welcomes well-educated people to teach in the Imperial College, and also welcomes some knowledgeable people to discuss their studies.

But there is a premise here, that is, these people are there to teach and educate people, and to talk about knowledge with students.

If the people who go there are some kind of mountain leftovers, if those people are just talking about it and have a lot of property, those people will be a huge problem.If it is more serious and there are some remarks that are contrary to the ancient court words, it is very likely that it is the crime of beheading, and many people will not be able to live in peace.

But now it's a good thing, Guozijian invites friends and celebrities to sacrifice wine. Although there are some learned people, there is no shortage of monks, so-called gifted scholars and beauties, or some romantic celebrities.

Where is the Imperial College here?This is simply a poetry meeting, which is simply to burn the face of the imperial court.

If you just go boating on Xuanwu Lake, such a thing can be called elegant.But if they were in the Guozijian, those people would be extremely unsuitable, and it would be considered that some officials had neglected their duties.

Zhu Yunying said with a grim expression, "Look, our Ming Dynasty is really a generation that cares about the country and the people. The imperial court controls salt and iron, which is competing with the people for profit. Is it insulting to the imperial court to select scholars? Yes, every The first time we enter the examination room, the conscientious people of our Daming should accept the subordinate officials’ troubles and go to the clothes to check whether there is any entrainment.”

The six ministers bowed their heads in unison, each of them was terrified, and each of them seemed a little lacking in confidence.

This is indeed a trouble caused by the Guozijian, but who made them the six ministers, they are the role models of civil servants.

Now that something like this has happened, it is unrealistic for them to say that they have no responsibility at all.But it can be regarded as some good news, for example, there is no direct responsibility.

Of course, except for the Minister of Rites, who must be in a cold sweat now, the trouble caused by the Imperial College will be greater than imagined.And if you really want to talk about it, this can be regarded as the lack of strict restraint by the Ministry of Etiquette, and this responsibility cannot be escaped.

Zhu Yunying continued, "Punishing corrupt officials in the early years is the harsh treatment of scholars in the Ming Dynasty. If the prime minister is abolished, it means that our sons of the Ming Dynasty are all independent husbands. If we fail to rule the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, our Ming Dynasty will lose the hearts of the people. Decayed!"

Zhu Yunying laughed out of breath, and said, "Okay, it's really a pity for the Ming Dynasty that I, a cruel and stupid king, failed to reuse learned people, so that the talents of the world have fallen to this point!"

Ru Yu wanted to cry, because not only was the emperor furious, but also because he was a traitor and lucky in some people's eyes.It seems that some people are indeed very unhappy, because they are really not optimistic about the current official ecology of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yunying snorted coldly, and said, "Let's back down now! Think carefully about how to return to me tomorrow morning, carefully weigh why this matter started, and why it has reached this point today!"

What else can Ru Xun and the others say, they are all a bit confused now, and their hearts are all in a mess.It's better to think about countermeasures quickly, or think about how to control this matter within a certain scale.

Otherwise, even if it is not a monstrous case, it will cast a shadow on the official career of many scholars.Maybe in the general examination two years later, these students of Guozijian will lose their names.

Of course, what's more serious is that the Imperial College, the highest institution of Ming Dynasty, will collapse, and the civil service system will lose their cradle for cultivating talents.

If something like this really happened, it would definitely be unacceptable.It's just a pity that the current initiative is not in their hands at all, because some people's actions have violated the emperor's rebellion, and some people's actions have indeed crossed the line.

Familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and able to write beautiful articles, it means that you are really a pillar of talent, very likely a pedantic person, and very likely a typical scholar who only misunderstands the country.

Ru Yu can be regarded as deeply touched now, even a little bit too late for regret!

Who is Huang Shi and Huang Zicheng?

This is the 18th year of Hongwu when he passed the first general examination and the third place in the palace examination.

This is definitely what many people think of as a talent, and it is a pillar of talent that many people are optimistic about.But in these years, that is, during the period of Emperor Hongwu, Huang Zicheng's official career seemed to have developed well, but it was not so brilliant, it was just a promotion model for exploring flowers.

It's just a No. [-] pick, nothing at all. Every three years there will be a No. [-] pick, a No. [-] pick, and an even more dazzling No. [-] pick.In the Hanlin Academy, the most indispensable thing is editing and editing. You can only edit books and accumulate some experience.

Many champions who were nominated on the gold list at the beginning, perhaps their most glorious moment was the moment when they were nominated on the gold list.For many champions, their official careers may not be so brilliant, and they are not even as good as many students who were lower than them when they were named on the gold list.

Although Huang Zicheng's official career was not smooth, his reputation in Shilin can be said to be quite good.After all, he has some talents, at least he is proficient in classics and history, and he is also accomplished in poetry and literature.

As for Fang Xiaoru, he was smart and eager to learn since he was a child. He also worshiped the great Confucian Song Lian as his teacher and was respected by his peers.If it is true, he is still the younger brother of Emperor Xiaokang Zhu Biao, and he does have a great reputation.

Fang Xiaoru's great reputation is mainly because Fang Xiaoru is also an outstanding student among the disciples of the great Confucian Song Lian.This scholar who despises the knowledge of diction and writing, and often takes it as his mission to proclaim the way of benevolence and righteousness to rule the world, and to achieve peace in the world, is also the next great Confucian who many people are optimistic about, and can become a famous scholar.

And speaking of it, Fang Xiaoru's conduct is also good, and those who live in peace and happiness can be regarded as filial piety.

It's just that his political essays, historical theories, prose, and poems are all excellent, but they are too idealistic.During these years in Yingtian Mansion, Fang Xiaoru seems to have become more and more famous, and has a tendency to become a "study seed", but this is just a reputation.

Although Emperor Hongwu didn't use Fang Xiaoru highly, he also appreciated Fang Xiaoru. He felt that Fang Xiaoru was a good character and worthy of the important task entrusted by his successor.After Emperor Yingshi ascended the throne, he only asked Fang Xiaoru to teach and educate people, and had no intention of bringing Fang Xiaoru into the center at all.

All of this is obvious to all, and naturally it will make some people feel unappreciated and depressed.

Maybe there are some complaints in private, maybe they are thinking about doing something to attract the attention of His Majesty the Emperor.

Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng, both of them can be regarded as depressed, and they can also be regarded as having some self-proclaimed talents for helping the world.Probably because of their high self-esteem, they will also be extremely dissatisfied with their current situation.

The six ministers resigned in disgrace, and they had to think of some countermeasures.Knowing the whole story of some things, they really don't need to guess wildly, they can deal with it seriously.

But it is precisely because of knowing these things that I feel even more uneasy inside.Once this is not handled properly, it will really shake the foundation of scholars. Then these six books, it can be said that they will be reviled by scholars, and they will become some eternal sinners in the eyes of many people.

It's a pity that they only have one day now, and they must come up with the best countermeasures in the shortest possible time.We must control the influence. The most important thing is that we must not extend the behavior of a very few people to the scholars all over the world.

So at this time, if it is a matter of course to abandon the car to save the handsome man, this is probably the correct way.

Seeing the worried six ministers leaving, Zhu Yunying couldn't help but laugh.He was indeed very angry at the beginning, but this matter can also make him use the problem and let him do some things better.

These are actually surprises, and Zhu Yunying is just making use of the topic.This matter must be brought under control, and Zhu Yunying really didn't plan to suppress the scholars all of a sudden, and there was no need for that.

Even if Zhu Yunying didn't have much affection for Confucianism, he had to admit that enough officials were needed to govern the world.

Zhu Yunying is well aware of these things, and these are actually the experiences he got from Lao Zhu.

You must know that when Lao Zhu ruled the world, many scholars once looked down upon him.That is, after the approval of the literati in eastern Zhejiang represented by Liu Bowen, Lao Zhu had a team of scholars and established his own group of literati.

When Lao Zhu unified the south, he also found that there were not a large number of qualified officials who could govern the people.Even though Lao Zhu tried his best to lure and intimidate all the literati to come and become officials, the number is still not enough.

This is also one of the reasons for the establishment of the Guozijian at the foot of Jiming Mountain. To introduce some people into the official system, the Ming Dynasty needed a backup official system.For these readers, they must be used when they should be used.

Not only now, even hundreds of years later, there will still be a lot of scholars entering the political system.

As for what happened in the early dynasty, Lao Zhu actually knew it very quickly.Although he frowned, he had nothing to worry about now, he believed that his precious grandson would be able to handle these things well.

Now it is still more important to teach the great-grandson, and this is what Lao Zhu thinks is the most important thing right now.He abdicated a long time ago, and there is nothing to miss about the affairs above the court.

"Great-grandfather, father always said that we should hold a book in one hand and a sword in the other." Little Zhu was a little puzzled, and said, "Let's think about it carefully, that's what a scholar should look like, we are the emperor."

Lao Zhu explained with a smile, "What your father meant is that you should practice martial arts, and those who study should practice martial arts. Only when you have a sword in your hand will others be afraid of you. Only by reading wisely can you know the people's support. If you are an ordinary As a human being, it is best to be able to write and perform martial arts. It’s just that you are the emperor, that’s different.”

Little Zhu was even more confused, and he knew he didn't understand, so he asked, "Then what is our father talking about? We are not scholars?!"

"What you mean is that you are an emperor, and both literati and warriors should be used." Old Zhu said earnestly, "Emphasis on literature, maybe it means the weakness of the Song Dynasty. Only using warriors, it is difficult to govern the country, and it is easy for warriors to mess up the country. Use the literati to contain the warriors, and use the warriors to restrict the literati. The literati rule the country, and the warriors stabilize the country."

Looking at little Zhu who seemed to understand but half understood, Lao Zhu continued, "Your father never believed in Confucianism, and the family's words cannot be trusted. It doesn't matter if it is Confucianism, Taoism, or Legalism, as long as it can govern the country well. Don’t just use Confucianism, think about it, all the disciples of Confucius are in the court, and what those people think about is the teachings of Confucius.”

Little Zhu, who half understood, nodded again, but it didn't mean he understood.The meaning of nodding is just because he thinks it makes more sense, but now he still needs to digest it carefully and taste it carefully.

Seeing little Zhu's appearance, Lao Zhu smiled and said nothing, and let the child figure it out by himself.If the child does not understand, then teach slowly.

But there are some things that Lao Zhu didn't say, that is, if some people and some things are too old-fashioned, it is obviously impossible.

When it's time to clean up, we still have to clean up. Only by eliminating some drags that can't keep up, can we move forward better.

The Ming Dynasty cannot stop, and the Ming Dynasty needs to keep moving forward.

Whether it is a scholar or a martial artist, if you can't keep up, you will be eliminated.Emperor, be more ruthless and decisive!
