Chapter 44

Miss Ruan of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion suddenly left Yongjia City to go to Xuanci Temple to pray for her seriously ill grandmother, which did not attract too many people's attention. After the end of the late spring, it was carried out vigorously. This incident did not cause much sensation among ordinary people, but it did form a big shock among the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty. , can be described as undercurrent surging.

Of course, it wasn't just the officials from all over the Chen Kingdom that paid attention to this matter, but also a group of passionate young people, or in other words, scholars and talents.

In the northwest of Yongjia City, there is a tea house. It is said to be a tea house, but it is not exactly that, because the people who come here are not to drink tea, but to discuss politics.

During the reign of Emperor Yuanchang, the policy was enlightened, and he was more tolerant towards talented people. The recruiting hall located in the west of Yongjia City is the best proof. More than 30 years ago, the recruiting hall was just a simple welcoming building. However, due to various reasons, the literati and scholars who come and go like to gather here to discuss literature and poetry. Later, it developed into a place to discuss political affairs. The owner of the teahouse had a whim With the development of this customary atmosphere, this teahouse has instead become a place where scholars, Confucians, talented scholars, and people from the Chen Kingdom gather to discuss political affairs. On the contrary, it makes people forget about him. It was just an ordinary teahouse, and I forgot who the owner of this teahouse is.Usually, if there is nothing wrong, it is just a random talk, but as the matter of rectifying the officials unfolds, this matter exploded in the recruiting hall.

In a corner on the north side of the lobby of the Recruitment Hall, a young gentleman in light blue clothes sat down early in the morning, and a young boy who looked particularly bright stood behind him. He didn't say a word, just watched everyone in the recruiting hall express various opinions on the measures taken by Emperor Yuanchang to rectify the administration of officials.

After discussing for half a day, the excitement in the recruiting hall remained undiminished. From time to time, impassioned voices came from the almost full hall, and suddenly, there was an obvious voice, "This time to rectify the administration of officials, the policies introduced can be described as Strict and strict, a few days ago, I heard that the left servant of the Ministry of War was found out about his greed for ink two years ago, and he ran to Prince Ji's mansion in the middle of the night holding a bag of gold and begging His Highness Prince Ji to forgive him. The crime of being demoted two grades in a row is abruptly added with a bribe, and the official title of the left servant of the Ministry of War will be completely lost! And... not only the Ministry of War, but also the Ministry of Staff and Households have been arrested one after another. I wonder if you have any opinions on this. ?”

A man in Tsing Yi suddenly stood up on the left side of the lobby and spoke loudly, which instantly attracted the attention of everyone. As the man in Tsing Yi finished speaking, someone continued to say, "What are you talking about? These people are all Taking the people's silver taels into his own pockets, it should have been rectified long ago, I think it's better to depose a few more people like this, so that Chen Kingdom can be clear."

"That's right, looking at the world, only our Chen Kingdom can wield the Emperor's Sword and fight in all directions!"

"Good! Well said!"

"..."

The blue-clothed man sitting in the north corner listened to everyone's impassioned laughter, and the corners of his lips hooked up inexplicably. This time, he caught the attention of a young gray-clothed man sitting next to him. He was talking loudly, applauding the future of Chen Kingdom, but he saw that the young man sitting next to him, who was about the same age as him, didn't say a word, he was also a little curious, and said in a friendly tone, "Brother, I don't know what to call you?"

The man in blue turned his head and smiled slightly, "My surname is Bai, and my name is Yinbing."

The man in gray smiled brightly, raised his hand and said, "My surname is Yuan Shan Minghui, from Liangzhou, and I'm going on a study tour in Yongjia."

Bai Yinbing smiled and nodded, Yuan Hui was obviously very curious about the silent Bai Yinbing, and said, "Brother Bai has been here for a long time today, why hasn't he spoken?"

Bai Yinbing only smiled and said, "It's also good to hear everyone's views on the rectification of officials. Isn't Brother Yuan rarely speaking?"

Yuan Hui scratched his head and smiled, "To tell you the truth, I'm still a little educated, so I'm afraid it will be a joke."

Bai Yinbing pursed his lips and smiled, "Why not, but everyone expresses their own opinions, everyone seeks common ground while reserving differences. In my opinion, Brother Yuan is not just talking nonsense, is he?"

Yuan Hui smiled shyly, looked at the hustle and bustle in the field, and looked at Bai Yinbing's calm expression, as if he was completely unaffected by the high-spirited talk in the hall, and said with some doubts, "Everyone thinks that this rectification of officials for half a month If it continues at this speed, the court of Chen Kingdom will definitely be clear, and the leader of the world's most powerful country will be around the corner. I wonder what Brother Bai thinks?"

Hearing this, Bai Yinbing shook his head, "Brother Yuan, what do you mean by rectifying officials this time?"

Yuan Hui was taken aback, "Naturally, it is to clean up Chaofeng and control corruption."

A gentle smile rose from the corner of Bai Yinbing's lips, "Can a country be made stronger just by rectifying officials?"

"This... the country's community is run by hundreds of officials. Isn't it true that if all officials are clean and bright, the community will be hopeful?" Yuan Hui obviously felt a little puzzled.

However, Bai Yinbing shook his head, "The country and society do need hundreds of officials to operate, but all the countries in the world today were developed by the Great Wei a hundred years ago. At the starting point, apart from the convenience brought by the geographical location Other than that, everyone's starting point is similar, but why has Nanhua become the number one power over ten years ago, while Chen Kingdom still ranks second?"

Although Yuan Hui was only in his weaker years, he still said without hesitation, "Naturally, it is because Nanhua had the Meng family more than ten years ago, and the emperor Meng Yao tried his best to assist Nanhua, and later Empress Ruan, who is both civil and military, assisted the current Nanhua monarch. How could Nanhua not be strong? It's just... a pity."

Bai Yinbing nodded, "However, brother Bai has overlooked one point. The beginning of Nanhua's prosperity is because of Meng's transformation of Nanhua."

"Brother Bai means..." Yuan Hui asked tentatively.

 Ah, it's going to be 2P tomorrow, everyone, don't raise Wenha [excited ing]
