Daming heir

Chapter 264

It is not uncommon for recruits to be government officials.

You can become an official in the court by yourself, but you can only go around at the local prefecture and county levels at most. If you are lucky, you can get a job as a Beijing official head, doctor, etc. before retirement.

It's just that Juren was born with Jinshi.

This made everyone, including Zhan Hui, hesitate.

Birth is birth, if it is really just because these candidates have served the imperial court and made political achievements, they will be given birth to fellow Jinshi, what will those real second-best Jinshi think.

If such a policy continues to be implemented in the future, the gold content of the imperial court's two lists of Jinshi will become bad street stuff.

More importantly, if in the future there is a person who was born as a Juren and was conferred with a Jinshi background, and achieved the position of the six ministers in the court, what will other people think and how to deal with it.

However, Zhu Yunxi just wanted to make the two top scholars who had been popular in the Central Plains for hundreds of years worthless.

In the end, it is only used as a kind of academic certification.

He immediately said again: "The imperial court is employing people, and all kinds of strategies are for the country. The imperial court must not stick to one pattern when selecting materials. Employing people is the first, and merit is the last. The imperial court upholds benevolence and righteousness, and people all over the world respect it."

This was said to Zhan Hui and the others, but it was even more to the old man.

After Zhu Yunxi finished speaking, he slightly raised his head to look at Zhu Yuanzhang, who looked unclear.

Before the old man could speak, Zhu Biao on the side spoke first: "I think this move can be tried on Jiaozhi Road. Encouraging people to work for the imperial court can save the imperial court from worrying about new land acquisition or corrupt officials. .It can better emulate the Shang Jun’s relocation of trees and establish trust, and establish the court’s fairness, benevolence and justice.”

The prince opened his mouth, and it was Shang Yang who had been torn apart by the Qin Dynasty for a thousand years, and the reason was extremely fair.

This made Zhan Hui and others lose their words of advice.

The imperial court wants to use the new Jiaozhi Road to establish trust in front of the world. Whoever persuades and stops it at this time will probably face the prince and even the emperor.

Do you want to prevent the court from establishing its prestige?

No one dares to take this charge.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak until this time: "Since this is the case, after the palace examination this year, the imperial court will issue a decree to inform all the candidates."

"The ministers obey the order."

Zhan Hui and the others stood up and saw that the emperor had started to walk out of the hall.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "The matter of the Southern Expedition, the ministers and grandsons discussed in detail, the departments of the imperial court should put the state affairs first, and the military plane must not be delayed."

After finishing speaking, the emperor handed over the Hall of Wuying to Zhu Yunxi, and took the prince out of the Hall of Wuying by himself.

Zhu Yunxi stood on the spot and bowed to see him off, looking at the old man's appearance, it seemed that he was going to the main hall again.

After a while, only Zhu Yunxi and a group of civil and military personnel remained in the Hall of Martial Arts.

The two sides looked at each other, Zhu Yunxi smiled silently, and then his face became serious: "Although I am talking about it in terms of cross-toes, the military plane conquest must not have the slightest deviation. You must have the courage to determine the universe, and conquer all kinds of reasons in the whole south."

It cannot be inflated because of money.

Otherwise, it is a local turtle.

Now that the imperial court has begun to directly refer to Annan as Jiaozhi, Zhu Yunxi feels that it is necessary to give these people a tighter thought.

Zhan Hui and others bowed and echoed: "The ministers and others know, and dare not slack off."

Zhu Yunxi nodded and motioned for everyone to sit down.

Afterwards, he pointed to the gigantic map of the Ming Dynasty.

"Da Ming is in the eyes of Zhu Qing, but outside the territory is a bigger world than Daming. You can travel thousands of miles with one step. This Southern Expedition may be the first time for Daming to expand its territory outside the territory. No matter the army conquering the South Or the Cochin Third Division Office, I hope you all will work together to live up to the imperial court's expectations, so as to serve as a lesson for the future."

These words were majestic and hinted at annexation of the world, which made Chang Sheng and the others feel excited.

As long as Daming has endless battles, people like them can make indelible feats.

Soldiers, return them as shrouded in horse leather.

But Zhan Hui and the others had another worry.

Civil and military hostility since ancient times.

Counting through the dynasties, perhaps only in the early Tang Dynasty, under the rule of Tang Taizong, there was such a short moment of civil and military concentricity.

At that time, officials could enter the court as ministers, or they could be ordered to be commanders-in-chief.It can be said to get on the horse to kill the enemy, and get off the herdsman.

It's just that with the establishment of the imperial examination system and the demise of aristocratic families, the distinction between civil and military has become more and more clear, and there is an insurmountable gap.

In the former Song Dynasty, it even appeared that the general was not as good as a dog in front of the prime minister.

Now the Ming Dynasty is still stable, and the civil and military disputes are not too fierce, but this is also related to the fact that the founding of the country is only 25 years old, and the world is still fighting.

Qin Kui, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, said at this time: "Your Highness, I ask the court to allocate money and grain to the Longjiang Shipyard as soon as possible, so that the more than [-] large ships will be built and used for the southern expedition."

Zhu Yunxi looked at Yu Xin: "Department of household."

Yu Xin got up immediately, pondered for a moment and then looked at Qin Kui: "I wonder if 20 taels is enough?"

"Enough! Enough! Enough! Enough!"

When Qin Kui heard the 20 taels of silver, he immediately nodded.

It has been a long time, and the Ministry of Industry has never seen so much silver!
But Zhu Yunxi said: "Although it takes time to prepare for the conquest of Annan, the founding father, together with the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, can first dispatch a navy ship to transport grain to Qiongzhou Prefecture as an outpost. Divide the money and grain to Guangxi Road, transferred to Yunnan Xipinghou."

Chang Sheng, Qin Kui, and Yu Xin got up and took orders.

Zhu Yunxi said again: "There is an open-pit iron mine in Qiongzhou Prefecture. It has amazing reserves and is easy to smelt. It is accompanied by gold, silver and copper. The Ministry of Industry will also prepare craftsmen to accompany it."

The iron mine in Qiongzhou Mansion with an iron content as high as 70.00% was finally shaken out by Zhu Yunxi.

Another mine!
Everyone was surprised when they heard the mine again from Zhu Yunxi's mouth, but they were still numb.

Qin Kui asked softly: "I don't know where this mine is located in Qiongzhou Prefecture, how did Your Highness find it?"

Zhu Yunxi said: "This mine is located in Changhua County, Qiongzhou Prefecture. You can find it by patrolling upstream along the Changjiang River. It was discovered by the secret guards."

When Taisun mentioned the dark guard.

Qin Kui didn't ask any more details, and the rest also put the matter behind them, and became interested in the production volume.

Chang Sheng frowned and pondered for a moment, then stood up and said, "Your Highness, if the imperial court conquests Annan this time, if a transshipment place is established in Qiongzhou Prefecture, can it be used in Changhua County to transfer money and food for our army's camp?" .”

Qiongzhou Fucheng is not in Changhua.

Changhua is located in the northwest of Qiongzhou Prefecture, and Fucheng is in the north, separated from Leizhou Prefecture by a strait.

Zhu Yunxi was puzzled and said: "The capital city of Qiongzhou can be a place for the army to transfer, why did the founding father choose Changhua?"

"Changhua can build a naval warship wharf and face Annan directly. Whether it is to deploy troops or transfer food and supplies, it is more convenient than Qiongzhou Fucheng."

After hearing Chang Sheng's explanation, Zhu Yunxi finally understood.

He never thought that Changhua County could actually build a port.

However, he knew where Changhua County was located in Qiongzhou Prefecture.

Hearing Chang Sheng say that Changhua County can build a warship wharf, Zhu Yunxi immediately said: "The founder of the country must set up a transfer camp for the Southern Expedition Army and the Central Army in Changhua County."

After all, the Qiongzhoufu Iron Mine is located in Changhua County, and the Ministry of Industry wants to send people to mine and smelt it, so that it can be built as a transfer camp for the Southern Expedition Army, which is just a matter of convenience.

Ren Hengtai, the new official of the Ministry of Rites who did not participate much in the court's conquest of Annan, stood up slowly at this time under the gaze of everyone.

As the first person in the Ming Dynasty to own the No. [-] Scholar Archway, the old man does not need much demeanor.

Now that he finally got his wish and became the Minister of Rites, he is even more elegant.

I saw Ren Hengtai said in a loud voice: "Your Highness, this time the re-examination will be held again. Your Highness said about reforming the system. I think that since it is going to be reformed, why not put the questions of each subject in the first six days, and the four books and five classics in the last three days."

With a swish, the entire Hall of Martial Heroes was so quiet that people could hear each other's heartbeat and breathing.

If Zhu Yunxi changed a small part of the examination.

So, for Ren Hengtai's remonstrance at the moment, it is a big step forward for the imperial examination.

Putting the examination questions in the first six days is undoubtedly asking the general examination to pay more attention to the results of various subjects, and the Four Books and Five Classics...

Zhan Hui, Ru Yu and others all looked at Ren Hengtai who made such bold remarks.

Is this old man crazy?
However, Ren Hengtai's heart was constantly ups and downs, causing turbulent waves one after another.

I am not crazy, but I have not forgotten how embarrassed I was when I was blocked at home by those Neo Confucian students not long ago.

Even now Liu Sanwu and those old Confucians of Confucianism are dead.

This tone, as the first person in the Ming Dynasty to own the No. [-] Scholar Archway, he couldn't bear it!

Since those people were unkind at the beginning, don't blame him for being unrighteous now.

Zhu Yunxi also stared at Ren Hengtai with ambiguous eyes, and after a while, he said quietly: "Since Ren Shangshu is the chief examiner of the reconvened examination, I have this remonstrance, I should agree to it alone, and follow what Ren Shangshu said Let's do it."

"I bow and thank Your Highness."

Zhan Hui stared at Old Man Ren for a while, then shook his head helplessly.

This old man is a stubborn ass.

Seeing that the grandson also agreed at this time, I can't say anything more.

Zhan Hui turned to worry and said: "Your Highness is going to enlist people who have failed the rankings to go to Jiaozhi to serve as officials in the new Yamen, and even bestow them with Jinshi backgrounds and become officials in the court. I think this move may cause slander."

"Slander?"

Zhu Yunxi leaned back tactically, and sat in an armchair: "After the conquest, the Jiaozhi Dao was first built, and it was just the time for employing people. The imperial court should reward them generously."

Zhan Hui was taken aback by the words, and after a while he hesitated and said: "The imperial court... the two Jinshi scholars may feel that the imperial court is unfair..."

Zhu Yunxi raised his brows: "If they feel that the court has been unfair and feel dissatisfied, they can just resign and not be officials of my Ming Dynasty."

There is no leeway in these words, and there is no possibility of any negotiation.

Only by making those formerly high-ranking scholars in the two ranks become like everyone else, will this group of people know that there are plenty of officials in the Ming Dynasty.

thought here.

Zhu Yunxi said again: "The Ministry of Rites should consider whether the Guozijian, local government schools, and county schools should add various subjects like the re-opening of the current examination. The Ministry of officials should also consider whether the imperial court should follow the rules when selecting and appointing officials. For the official position, a public examination will be added."

Open various subjects to teach, and increase the system of public examination and selection of officials.

Taking advantage of the old man's opportunity, Zhu Yunxi stuffed his private goods.

Without waiting for everyone to open their mouths, Ren Hengtai spoke first: "I think your Highness's words are very true. As long as there are changes in the general examinations, the prefectural and county schools in the world should also be changed. The imperial court selects officials, and even the two list of Jinshi should take public examinations again. , go to the most suitable yamen to watch the government and become an official."

Ren Hengtai is crazy!

Zhan Hui didn't dare to let the rehearsal continue, and got up immediately: "Your Highness, since the conquest has been decided at this time, all ministers of the imperial court should act upon hearing the sound, and the opportunity must not be delayed."

Zhu Yunxi waved his hand boredly, and looked at Zhan Hui indifferently.

"Let's go, everyone."

"Daming still has a long way to go, and we still need to work together."

Zhan Hui's eyes flickered, and he led the crowd to stand up and bid farewell.

Seeing Wen Wu leave, Zhu Yunxi heaved a sigh of relief and buried himself in the armchair.

After a long time, he slowly stood up and looked back at the two Kanyus behind him.

"Where are Your Majesty and the Crown Prince now?"

After a while, Zhu Yunxi asked softly.

There was a sound of footsteps in the hall: "Reporting to the grandson, your majesty and the prince went to the main hall earlier, and then returned to the Zhongji hall."

……

"Yunxi, can you think of a way so that the father will not come to Dahontang in the future?"

In the main hall, Zhu Gong was squatting on the threshold like a kid, with his hands resting on his cheeks, staring at Zhu Yunxi who had just come from the Hall of Martial Arts with a sad face, complaining nonstop.

Zhu Yunxi rolled his eyes, and glanced at Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Shangbing and others standing behind the door.

He patted Zhu Gong on the head: "I can't decide this matter. You are grandpa's son, so you can't even say it. I'm just grandpa's grandson, let alone dare to say it."

Zhu Qiang looked backwards, looked up at the sky at 45 degrees, and sighed: "It's useless to think about it."

Then, he was alone and sad.

There seems to be something wrong with this kid.

Zhu Yunxi shook his head and waved to the two people behind the door.

Zhu Gaochi walked very slowly, while Zhu Shangbing jumped out of the school directly.

"I heard that brother Xun is going to serve as the supervisor of the army and accompany the founding father to go to Annan?" Zhu Shangbing asked with a look of joy and anticipation.

Zhu Yunxi wondered whether Zhu Gaochi hadn't lost much weight these days, and wondered whether he should formulate a method for the other party to lose weight and keep fit. Hearing Zhu Shangbing's words, he squinted at the other party.

"Bing Geer wants to go out with the army?"

Zhu Shangbing was obviously stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "This... who doesn't want to fight on the battlefield?"

"I do not want……"

Finally it was Zhu Gaochi who came out of the school, muttering.

Zhu Shangbing immediately turned his head and glared at the other party: "If you can handle a horse, you must be able to carry a knife!"

Zhu Gaochi curled his lips: "Don't even think about going out, Grandpa Huang will not agree to let you go out with the army at this time. Even Brother Xie is also going out as a supervising army."

Zhu Yunxi nodded: "I think Brother Chi is right."

Zhu Shangbing stared, hummed twice indignantly, then lowered his head, but his eyes rolled around.
