Chapter 707: Unexpected joy

The six ministers of the ministers can't calm down now, because the things in the memorials are obviously a huge trouble.

Where is the Imperial College?

That is the highest institution of learning in the Ming Dynasty. Although there are also some related households, everyone knows that the students in the Imperial College were 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 by the civil servant group.

During the Yuan Dynasty, most Han people were difficult to become senior officials, and there were indeed many criticisms for the promotion system of the Yuan Dynasty. The reason why Emperor Hongwu built the Imperial College was indeed because he needed more officials to manage the local area.

The Ming Dynasty did need their official system.

The imperial examination system is indeed extremely important, and this is the most important reliance of the civil servant system. The Imperial College represents the most elite number of students in the imperial examination system.

But now, the Imperial College Priest Jijiu is discussing national affairs in the prison, and there are still many students who follow suit.

Imperial College should have been a place to study hard. You should know that in the early days of Emperor Hongwu, the students of Imperial College were under great academic pressure. They had to face endless exams and constantly assess them. Physical punishment and other things were commonplace. Some students were under too much pressure.

Choosing to commit suicide is not just one or two.

Many officials know these things and don’t think there is any problem. This is what the Imperial College should do. The students here should turn a blind eye to the outside world. They should prepare for the exam and be able to enter the government at any time.

effort.

But now, the Imperial College has become a place where great scholars talk big and talkative, and a place where people should teach and educate people, and there are actually many people who talk about it.

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

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

If the people who went there were some mountain and wild remnants, if those people were just talking big and the property was incredible, those people would be a huge problem. If it was a little more serious, some remarks that were contrary to the ancient lyrics of the court would be very interesting.

It may be the sin of beheading, and many people cannot live a stable life.

But now, the Imperial College Priest invites friends and celebrities. Although there are some knowledgeable people, there are also some monks and Taoists, some so-called talented men and beautiful women, or some romantic celebrities.

How could this be the Imperial College? This is simply a poetry party, and it is simply a burning face to the court.

If you are just rafting in Xuanwu Lake, such things can be called elegant things. But if you are in the Imperial College, those people are extremely disagreeable, and then it can be considered as some officials who have neglected their duties.

Zhu Yunyou's expression was cold and said, "Look, our Ming Dynasty was really worried about the country and the people. The imperial court controlled salt and iron, which was to compete with the people for profit. Is it a disgrace to the imperial examinations? Yes, every time

When we entered the examination room, our consciences in the Ming Dynasty should accept the difficulties of the clerks and go to check if there are any entrainments."

The six ministers all bowed their heads, and each of them was frightened, and each of them looked a little lack of confidence.

This is indeed a trouble caused by the Imperial College, but who made them the six ministers of the ministers? They are the examples of civil officials.

Now that such a thing has happened, it is unrealistic for them to say that they have no responsibility at all. However, there is some good news, such as no direct responsibility.

Of course, except for the Minister of Rites, I will definitely sweat in a cold sweat now. The trouble caused by the Imperial College will be greater than expected. And if you really want to say it, this can be regarded as the Ministry of Rites not being strictly bound by it, and this responsibility cannot be eliminated.

.

Zhu Yunyou continued, "Punishing corrupt officials in the early years was the Ming Dynasty to treat scholars harshly. If the prime minister was abolished, then the Ming Dynasty was the only emperor. If we failed to rule the world with the scholars and officials, our Ming Dynasty would lose the hearts of the people and the country would be prosperous.

Have faded!"

Zhu Yunyou laughed anxiously and said, "Okay, I, a cruel and foolish king, failed to value the well-educated scholars, and so that the talent of heaven and earth has fallen to this point. This is a pity for the Ming Dynasty!"

Ru Wei wanted to cry because not only the emperor was furious, but also because he was a traitor and was lucky to be successful in some people. Some people seem to be very unhappy, and they are really not optimistic about the current Ming Dynasty.

Official ecology.

Zhu Yunyou snorted coldly and said, "You guys go back! Think about how to return to me tomorrow morning, and think carefully about why this matter started and why it has reached this point today!"

What else can Ru Wei and the others say? Now they are a little bit unruly, and they are in a mess now. I'd better think about the countermeasures quickly, or think about how to control this matter to a certain scale.

Inside.

Otherwise, even if it is not a huge case, many scholars will suffer a shadow. Maybe in the examination two years later, these students from the Imperial College will fail.

Of course, what is more serious is that the Imperial College, the highest institution of the Ming Dynasty, was in a slump, and the civil servant system would lose their cradle for cultivating talents.

If something like this happens, it will definitely be impossible to accept it. It’s a pity that the initiative is not in their hands at all, because some of the things that some people have done have violated the emperor’s reverse scale, and some

What people do is indeed cross-line.

If you are familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics and able to write beautiful articles, it means that you are really a pillar of talent, and it is very likely that you are a pedantic person, and it is very likely that you are a typical example of only scholars who can ruin the country.

Ru Wei is deeply touched now, and she even feels a little regretful!

Who is Huang Xi and Huang Zicheng?

This was the first place in the imperial examination and the third place in the palace examination in the 18th year of Hongwu. He served as editor, editor, and minister of Taichang Temple.

This is definitely what many people think of as a talent, and it is some pillars that many people like. However, over the years, during the reign of Emperor Hongwu, Huang Zicheng's career seemed to have developed well, but it was not very eye-catching.

It's just a promotion model for Tanhua.

It’s nothing. Every three years, there will be a Tanhua, a second place, and a more dazzling top scorer. In the Hanlin Academy, the most unabashed thing is editing and compiling. Only by studying books and accumulating some

experience.

Many of the top scorers who were ranked first on the list of gold, perhaps their highest moments were the moments of the list of gold. Many of the top scorers may not be able to be very high-profile in their careers, and they are even worse than many classmates who were ranked lower than theirs when they were ranked second.

Although Huang Zicheng's career was not smooth, his reputation in Shilin can be said to be quite good. He is somewhat talented, at least he is proficient in classics and history, and his poetry and prose committee has accomplished.

Fang Xiaoru was smart and studious since childhood. He also became a great scholar Song Lian as his teacher and was praised by his peers. If he really said that, he was still the junior brother of Emperor Xiaokang Zhu Biao, and he really had a great reputation.

Fang Xiaoru's reputation is mainly because among the disciples of the great scholar Song Lian, Fang Xiaoru is also a good person. This scholar who despises literary writing often takes the way to govern the world with the promotion of benevolence and righteousness, and achieves peace in the times as his mission.

The next great scholar who is optimistic about can become a famous scholar.

And to be honest, Fang Xiaoru's character is also good, and being content with poverty and willing to talk about it is also considered filial piety and brotherly love.

But his political essays, history, prose and poetry are excellent, but they are too ideal. In the years of Yingtian Mansion, Fang Xiaoru seemed to have become more and more famous, and some of them became the "seed of reading", but this is what he got.

reputation.

Although Emperor Hongwu did not value Fang Xiaoru, he also appreciated him more and thought that Fang Xiaoru had good character and was worthy of the entrusted responsibilities of the successor. After the emperor ascended the throne, he only asked Fang Xiaoru to teach and educate people, and had no intention of bringing Fang Xiaoru into the center.

.

All of this is obvious to all, and naturally some people will feel that they are not appreciated and feel a little depressed.

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

Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng are both depressed and unsuccessful, and they can also be regarded as having some self-proclaimed talents. Perhaps because of their high self-esteem, they will also be extremely dissatisfied with their current situation.

.

The six ministers of the ministers surrendered in shame, and they had to think of some countermeasures. After knowing the whole story of some things, they really didn't need to guess themselves, and they could deal with it seriously.

However, it is precisely because of knowing these things that I feel even more uneasy. Once this is not handled well, it will really shake the foundation of scholars. Then the six ministers of the Ministry of Justice can be said to be cursed by the Shilin.

You will become some eternal sinners in the eyes of many people.

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

So if you abandon the car and protect the handsome guy at this time, this is a matter of course, and this is probably the right way to do it.

Seeing the worrying six ministers leaving, Zhu Yunyou laughed in silence. He was indeed very angry at the beginning, but this matter could also allow him to take advantage of the problem and allow him to do something better.

These are actually unexpected surprises. Zhu Yunyou just took advantage of the problem and took advantage of this matter. This matter must be controlled. Zhu Yunyou really has no intention of suppressing scholars and unable to get up at once, and there is no need.

Even if Zhu Yunyou did not have much favoritism for Confucianism, he had to admit that he needed enough officials to govern the world.

Zhu Yunyou knew these things well, and these were actually the experiences they gained from Lao Zhu.

You should know that when Lao Zhu conquered the world, many scholars once looked down upon it. It was only after Liu Bowen's recognition of the literati in Zhejiang East that Lao Zhu had a team of scholars and established his own group of civil officials.

When Lao Zhu unified the south, he also found that there were no large number of qualified officials who could govern the people. Even though Lao Zhu tried his best to induce and threatened all the literati to come and be officials, the number of people was still not enough.

This is also one of the reasons for establishing the Imperial College at the foot of Jiming Mountain. To introduce some people into the official system, the Ming Dynasty needs a reserved official system. For these scholars, they must still use it 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.

Lao Zhu actually knew about what happened in the morning court very quickly. Although he was a little frowning, he had nothing to worry about now. He believed that his baby grandson would definitely be able to handle these things well.

Now he is still teaching a great-grandson, which is even more important. This is also the most important thing Lao Zhu thinks is the most important thing at the moment. He has long abdicated and there is nothing to be left to nostalgic about in the court.

"Great-grandfather, my father always said that we should hold a book in one hand and a sword in the other." Xiao Xiaozhu was a little puzzled and said, "If we think about it carefully, that is what scholars should look like. We are the emperor."

Lao Zhu smiled and explained, "What your father meant is that it should be martial, and those scholars should be martial. Only with swords in their hands can others be afraid of being accustomed to others. Only by reading and understanding can you know the people's hearts. If you are ordinary

It is best for a person to be civil and martial. It's just that you are the emperor, that's different."

Xiao Xiao Zhu became even more confused. He knew that he didn't understand and asked, "What are our fathers saying about those things? We are not scholars?"

"You mean you are an emperor, a literati, or a military man, you should use it." Old Zhu said earnestly, "Estimating literature may not be the weakness of the Song Dynasty. Using only military men will make it difficult to govern the country, and it will also make it easier for martial men to disrupt the country.

Use literati to curb military men, use literati to restrict literati. Literary men govern the country, and military men safeguard the country."

Seeing Xiao Xiao Zhu seemingly understand, Lao Zhu continued, "Your father has never believed in Confucianism, and the words of one family cannot be trusted. Whether it is Confucianism or Taoism, it is also a Legalist, as long as you can manage the country well.

Don’t just use Confucianism. Think about it, the court is full of Confucius’ disciples, and those people are thinking about Confucius’ teachings.”

Xiao Xiaozhu, who seemed to understand, nodded again, but it did not mean that he understood. The meaning of the nod was just because he thought it made sense, but now he still needs to digest it well and carefully taste it.

Seeing Xiao Xiao Zhu's appearance, Lao Zhu smiled and said nothing, so he let the child think about it himself. The child doesn't understand and teaches him slowly.

But Lao Zhu didn't say some things, that is, once some people and some things are too old, it is obviously not possible.

When it is time to clean up, you still need to clean up. Only by eliminating some of the drags that cannot keep up can you continue to move forward better.

The Ming Dynasty cannot stop, but 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. The emperor, be cruel and decisive!
