Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 476 Graduation
The news that the eldest son of the Lu family, the patriarch of the capital, entered Jinyiwei and was still under the command of King Wang Yun, this news aroused the surprise of many people in the court.

Some people speculated whether the new emperor doted on the new empress, this is to reuse relatives!

Soon some people objected. The new emperor just kicked out those relatives and deprived them of some hereditary titles. How could they support them?

Soon, someone refuted that the new emperor now only has one woman, the empress, and has not filled the harem. Isn't this why he only favors the empress?
Can the new emperor learn from Ming Xiaozong?

Only Empress Zhang was favored in the palace, and in the end there was only one child, and Zhu Houzhao died in his early thirties. Although of course there were reasons for it, Zhu Houzhao's extinction made the court unstable, which made the new emperor cheaper.

According to this situation, everyone should write to the emperor to ask the emperor to accept more concubines, reproduce more emperor heirs, and stabilize the court.

Soon the topic came back to the fact that the new emperor only has one palace, should he be the concubine or not!
A lot of people started to think about whether there is a beautiful and suitable woman in their family...

"Could it be that you want to follow in the footsteps of the Zhang family or Yang Tinghe?"

Soon someone's reminder interrupted those people's imaginings!
Yes, let’s not talk about the tragic situation of Yang Tinghe’s family, Jiang Mian, etc., and the Zhang family brothers!

One thing more is worse than one thing less, since the emperor himself didn't say anything, who will touch the bad luck!

Don't forget that today's Beijing army is in the hands of the emperor. Jiang Bin, Xu Tai, including Wang Yin and Wang Yun, are the ones who dare to show no respect to the new emperor, and they all want to kill people with their knives!
Not to mention the officials of the imperial court, even the officials in various low-level places cannot be said to be completely replaced, at least one. Most of them have been replaced with new blood, and the rest have not been replaced, and they are all previously dispensable roles or support Those who belong to the Xinhuang Gang, who dares to take the initiative to make trouble, think that they have lived too long!
……

The weather is cold day by day near November.

An official with an iron-clad yamen.

The same is true for Beijing.

In particular, the last batch of Xinke Scholars who were interns in various departments in the capital have now completed their internships.
Various departments in Beijing have been very lively recently.

Because it's time to prepare to go out to work after the internship expires.

Now various departments are assigning jobs to these people whose internship period is about to expire, and they will get up and go to work after the year.

In addition, the personnel admitted to the first martial arts examination have also completed their internship in the Beijing Army and will be sent to various places in the frontier to practice.

This year’s recruitment of martial arts Jinshi has a total of 880 recruits in the first martial arts, which is really a gathering of talents from all walks of life:
There are skilled craftsmen, there are blacksmiths, there are those who are as powerful as cattle, there are those who line up troops, and there are those who can walk through Yang with a hundred steps...

At the beginning, when the Ministry of Rites was in charge of organizing the exams and determining the admission requirements for the exams, many people were too surprised to speak.

You must know that although there were only a few martial arts exams in the Ming Dynasty, the people who took the exams were basically the children of military officers' families in the guards or localities, and very few craftsmen and civilians from Lower Riba could also participate.

At the beginning, many people were hesitant, but when they heard that as long as they were selected to take the exam in Beijing, the imperial court would bear the travel expenses, board and lodging, many people quickly responded.

As far as the local government can produce a local talent, the local government is also very active!

In the past, the martial arts were basically selected by the army. In addition to the fierce competition, there were also a lot of tricks. Therefore, the reform in the army also faced great resistance.

This time there is no restriction on background, everyone depends on their ability, so it is naturally much smoother.

Moreover, there were many people who were admitted, and the imperial court also ordered awards, so the previous five rounds of examinations were considered a success.

It's just that although many elite talents have been recruited, a large part of them are illiterate and have never read.

Therefore, after the first batch of martial arts talents came to Beijing, in addition to dividing their talents and abilities into different projects, they also arranged cultural courses. There were only three subjects in the cultural courses, one was literacy, and the other was arithmetic. , and relevant expertise.

For example, if you are good at manufacturing equipment, there are books on equipment for teaching and learning, as well as experimental research;
Those who can form troops, have the knowledge of the art of war to learn, of course, they cannot do without practice!

Now that the study period is over, these people have to be assigned to enter the real work.

For these newly graduated students, it can be said that these days are in the midst of excitement.

I am full of studies and full of longing and expectation for the future.

After the Ministry of Officials assigned the work, the Ministry of Rites also specially prepared a reunion banquet for everyone to have dinner together.

Because of the travel, many people have never returned home during the two years of internship here.

This time, not only can they go home for the New Year, but most of them are assigned jobs in provincial capitals near their hometowns, which are arranged nearby and adapted to local conditions.

Since ancient times, officials have basically been assigned to work in different places. This is called the avoidance system.

The reason is that officials are worried that they have backgrounds, contacts and influence in their hometowns. Once they become bigger, it is easy to form local separatists and affect the centralization of the imperial court.

This avoidance system actually started from the Han Dynasty, and it was perfected in the Song Dynasty.

The first thing is to avoid the region. Officials cannot serve as officials in their original places, especially in places with industries. In the Song Dynasty, officials even had to work thousands of miles away.

In addition, relative avoidance means that officials in the same regional government office cannot have immediate family members.

Qin Shao has presided over the Ming Dynasty Hall for several years now, so of course he understands this situation.

It's just that if you have to choose thousands of miles away, Qin Shao feels that it's too much to correct.

First of all, as an official, especially a newly trained official, he has a better understanding of the conditions in the areas very close to his hometown, and it is easier to work with ease.

Oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and oranges born in Huaibei are oranges.

Going to be a leader in an unfamiliar place, especially when you have no experience, it is easy to act recklessly without knowing the situation and the reality.

Just like in the early years, when some southern soldiers were sent to fight in the north, they did not adapt to the environment at all and caused a large number of casualties.

What he is thinking about now is to let these people practice in relatively familiar areas first, and then send them to other places after they have some practical experience. They can communicate with each other and improve a lot.

It's like recruiting some technical talents who can do agriculture, many of them are from the southern region. They introduced rice seeds to some areas with rivers in the north, and now some places in the north have also started to grow rice.

After the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the north have a good harvest, they should not be introduced to many places in the south.

Just like the drought in Xiangyang area last year, because sweet potatoes and potatoes were imported from Anlu Prefecture, at least they can provide food and clothing during the drought, and the imperial court distributed some relief food, and the famine was over. , which was basically impossible in the past!

The graduation banquet was held at Jinghua Tea House.

This place has long been the favorite gathering place for students and scribes in the capital.

I heard that this graduation banquet was hosted by the emperor with money from his own treasury.

There is a table for every ten people, the banquet hall on the third floor is full, and the courtyard outside is also full.

"Your Majesty has treated us so kindly. I thought I would go home after I got my graduation certificate and letter of introduction. Who knew I could have this kind of hospitality!"

Someone exclaimed.

Everyone nodded, praising the new emperor's great achievements and his kindness to his subjects.

"Your Majesty is down!"

"Your Majesty is down!"

Everyone wanted to say something, but someone called out.

People stretched their heads to look out
