Chapter two hundred and ninety fifth scholar's original intention
Wang Jijiu replied: "Not many, the students of the Imperial College are deeply favored by the emperor. The imperial court's financial difficulties have led to the palace to cut back on food and clothing, but they still provide the students with food and accommodation, as well as summer clothes and winter clothes that are wasted by pen and ink. Even their
The whole family has been exempted from the corvee, and even if God’s grace is shattered into pieces, it cannot be repaid, so how dare you not think about making progress.”
Zhu Biao nodded casually after hearing this. He only half believed this. He was not sure whether the Imperial Academy students were grateful for the emperor's kindness, but it was certain that the rules were so strict that they did not dare to violate them out of fear.
There are currently only more than 2,000 students in the Imperial College, and they are all studying in the house, reciting poems or writing essays. Zhu Biao looked at the rooms one by one and found that they were generally pretty good.
However, Zhu Biao also knew that he was followed by a large group of people, and what they could see was what they wanted him to see. He led the people back to the front yard and said: "The rules of the Imperial College are too harsh. The students are
As the cornerstone of Ming Dynasty’s future, we must educate ourselves well, but we must also pay attention to propriety.”
Wang Jijiu smiled bitterly and said: "I have also reported it to you, but it's just destiny that cannot be violated..."
Zhu Biao also knew that this was a rule set by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the people in the Imperial College did not dare to refute it, but this was not their excuse. He turned around and looked at them coldly: "How presumptuous! The Holy One has everything to do and the state affairs are busy, so where can you still have energy?"
Focusing on teaching, the performance of local officials and students has been mediocre in the past two years, and the Holy Father is also quite disappointed. The imperial court spends huge resources to support them. Is this how you cultivate pillars for the national interest?"
These words were so serious that the officials of the Imperial College all knelt down in fear: "I have failed the emperor's favor, please forgive me."
Liu Jin, who was on the side, saw that Zhu Biao had no intention of entering the room, so he took out a chair from inside. After Zhu Biao sat down, he looked at the rows of black gauze heads in front of him and said: "Ignore what happened before, you guys start to make a decision immediately.
The new regulations were sent to the East Palace. The Imperial College is a place to cultivate pillars, not firewood. If you still can't produce talents in the future, it means you are not enterprising, ignorant and incompetent. What will happen to incompetent officials in this dynasty? I don't need to remind you.
Bar."
The kneeling people naturally kowtow and accept the promise. Although they serve in the Imperial College, they are also officials of the imperial court. Naturally, they also know that a storm is coming in the imperial court recently. If they accidentally bump into it, they will be dead.
Zhu Biao did not let them get up, and then ordered: "In the future, the four books and the five classics should be read? But it should be more practical? The students of the Imperial College are not expected to be knowledgeable about the world, but they should not be nerds who are indifferent to all kinds of grains.
.”
After listening to the imperial wine ceremony, the Imperial Highness replied: "Do you understand what Your Highness means? I will definitely not disappoint His Majesty and Your Highness again."
Zhu Biao waved for them to stand up: "Go and gather the students? I have something to say to them."
Liu Jin handed a cup of tea from the side, and Zhu Biao took it and took a sip. The people from the Imperial College had gone to gather the students, but Zhu Biao had his mind wandering. He originally wanted to encourage the students to develop towards mathematics, physics and chemistry, but now the Imperial College is like this.
It is not enough to recruit people and supply the imperial court.
We can only wait for a while, because the urgent need is right in front of us. Will my father kill me with his sword? At least tens of thousands of officials will die this year?
Who will do the government affairs for the stall?
The students from the Imperial College and the new Jinshi are not enough to fill the gap. It still has to be recommended by the public and the gentry to become officials. But these people are not greedy?
In the end, you have to kill and fill up? This has been the case in the Ming Dynasty in recent years. Things like social atmosphere cannot be reversed overnight? People of this generation are basically used to corruption and bribery.
To be honest, Zhu Biao wanted to persuade him to start purging officials a few years later, so that he could reserve some spare talents. But when he thought about it, it was better to do this sooner rather than later. At most, he had to work hard in the past few years.
.
Wait? When the officialdom is almost eliminated and the corruption of officials is curbed, Zhu Biao will persuade his father to slow down. There is nothing wrong with using heavy codes in troubled times, but there is nothing wrong with governing a big country like cooking small delicacies. Just now
Being gentle and gentle is the way to be a king.
By then, the country will probably have a little surplus. It is impossible to popularize education on a large scale, and the benefits will be too slow. It is better to concentrate resources on establishing elite education. He is a liberal arts student, but he also knows that mathematics, physics and chemistry are what this era needs most.
After a while, the students were gathered in the square, and Zhu Biao also stood up and walked over. The formation there was quite neat. More than two thousand students will continue to do something in the future, but in this era, these people are basically the best among people.
, no need to farm under the scorching sun, no need to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, the court has its own supplies, all they need is to study and become an official.
Zhu Biao looked similar to the students below in his regular clothes today. The students also looked at him curiously, knowing that this was their future master. It must be said that the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang were very good at brainwashing these students.
Their eyes were very hot.
Zhu Biao walked to the high platform and stood facing the students with his hands behind his back. The others stood one step behind him, with their waists slightly bent, so that they could bow back to the Crown Prince's questions at any time.
I don’t know if he has practiced before, but after Zhu Biao stood still, more than a thousand people knelt down in unison and said hello: "Students, please see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness Qianqiu!"
The robes of the Confucian scholars were quite spacious, but their salutes also had a different kind of beauty. Zhu Biao nodded with satisfaction. It was very exciting to be knelt down by so many people. No matter how many times, he still felt itchy in his heart.
Naturally, the people behind Zhu Biao did not dare to bear it and stood sideways to avoid being rejected. Seeing Zhu Biao nod, Liu Jin shouted from the side: "Excuse me and get down."
After everyone stood up, Zhu Biao asked them to come closer. After all, he didn't want to shout at the top of his lungs. That would be too undignified. However, in the era without loudspeakers, it was not easy for more than two thousand people to hear.
I had no choice but to let someone come down below to act as a human mouthpiece, and the students were very well-behaved and did not whisper to each other. Zhu Biao glanced around and said: "I came here specifically to see you today to select suitable people to serve the country. Your Majesty.
We intend to clean up the civil service and send imperial envoys to inspect local officials for corruption, but we are uncertain about the candidates. I wonder if any of you are willing to take on the important responsibility."
Those at the front who could directly hear Zhu Biao's words knelt down first. As the message was passed to the back, there were no more students standing in the square: "Students are willing to serve the imperial court, thoroughly investigate corruption, and bring peace to the world."
Qiankun!"
"By fulfilling our loyal wishes for the country, students will definitely live up to the expectations of the Holy One. Corrupt officials, my mortal enemy, will never coexist!"
Zhu Biao was not surprised when he heard the petition below. Ninety-nine out of a hundred officials wanted to be upright officials at first. After all, this was what they had been taught by the books they had read since childhood. But how many people could they really get after entering officialdom?
A person who emerges from the silt without being stained and cleans the water without being a monster?
