Zhang Xuan walked into the yamen of the Ministry of War, as the center in charge of the government of a country, the weather of the Ministry of War was strict, and everyone trotted and did not dare to slack off.

Zhang Xuan saw it in his eyes, and he was really a little surprised, he didn't expect Daming to have such a diligent yamen, it's really rare!

In fact, he was also negligent, the previous military department was not like this, thanks to Yang Minggong's entry into the main military department and vigorous rectification, the entire military department has a trace of military affairs.

Zhang Xuan, under the guidance of the people below, came to the duty room of the Wuxuan Division.

When he stepped in, he heard someone casually say, "There is tea on the table, there is charcoal in the stove, you want to drink it yourself." ”

He didn't raise his head, continued to deal with official business, and wrote the desk, but before he could write a few words, he suddenly found that it was dark in front of him, and he couldn't help but raise his head and found that a person was smiling at him.

"You're Lord Yang Shenyang, right? It's not a coincidence, this official is also a military election priest, and government affairs should be borne by us together, Zhang Mou never dares to derelict his duties! ”

After speaking, Zhang Xuan snatched the official document, sat down, and took a quick look.

Facing Zhang Xuan, who was like no one around, Yang Shen couldn't help but shake his head.

You really don't think of yourself as an outsider! How big of a face do you have, and you dare to grab things to do as soon as you come up?

He glared angrily, Zhang Xuan still turned a blind eye, his speed was extremely fast, and the thick official document took less than a quarter of an hour to see seven, seven, eight, eight.

At this time, Zhang Xuan raised his head and smiled at Yang Shen, "Lord Yang, these are all official documents for the promotion and appointment of some military attachés and generals, what do you mean?" ”

Yang Shen couldn't cry or laugh even more, "Lord Zhang, it seems that it is a bit inappropriate to ask the official directly, right?" ”

The boss can ask the subordinates, the two of them are at the same level, you Zhang Xuan is still a later, how dare you press me?

Zhang Xuan thought about it seriously and seemed to realize his faux pas.

"Lord Yang, I didn't mean to order you, you wait a minute."

While speaking, Zhang Xuan lifted the pen, waved his pen, and wrote down two words "as intended", and after writing, he threw it to Yang Shen, "Lord Yang, if you don't mean anything else, just send it!" ”

"You!"

Yang Shen's handsome face became distorted and hideous, he was from a prominent background, studied under a famous teacher, and as a top student in the first class, even his appearance was first-class.

From childhood to adulthood, Yang Shen strictly abides by etiquette and does not dare to come nonsense at will.

In his opinion, if a person does not understand etiquette, it means that the family education is too poor, and the poor family education is to disgrace the parents and shame the ancestors, which is a great disobedience.

Although he quarreled with anyone, and the quarrel was still very strong, he was always concerned about things and people.

"Master Zhang, you are new to the city, but I am afraid that you don't even know these things, how dare you call the shots?"

Zhang Xuan put down the brush and smiled lightly.

"There is nothing unclear, it is not some heroes who went out with Wang Butang to conquer the desert, His Majesty wants to appoint them, take charge of the three major battalions, and rectify the forbidden army. This matter has been going on for a month or two, and there is no result, it seems that our military department is derelict in its duties! ”

Yang Shen snorted, "Lord Zhang, you have to be clear that there are certain rules for the appointment of generals. Among these people, many ancestors are not martial artists, have no hereditary titles, and have never participated in martial arts, so they have no fame. They all relied on Wang Yangming to be promoted to a high position, and if they didn't watch out, could they do it? ”

"Hahaha!" Zhang Xuan laughed loudly, "It's ridiculous! Officers and soldiers in the army, only look at whether they can fight or not, how can they look at their ancestors? As for fame, it's even more of a joke! Fame is a stepping stone, and it is to let ordinary people enter the army and serve the country. And these people have been bloodied on the battlefield and have contributed to the country. Why do you need to go through the martial arts exam? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse? As for guarding against Wang Butang, it's even more ridiculous! ”

Zhang Xuan said loudly: "At that time, there were hundreds of civil and military officials, and everyone was afraid of the enemy and avoided the war, but Wang Butang was the only one who did not give in, led the people to the north, and returned with a big victory. If you Yang Zhuangyuan has the ability, you can also go to the front of the battle to kill the enemy and be rewarded for meritorious service! You people are afraid of swords and avoid swords, and they retreat in the capital. When others win the battle and make meritorious contributions, they are not ashamed to speak out, and they must be strictly vigilant! Yang Zhuangyuan? Could it be that in the Ming Dynasty, the more you do and the greater the credit, the more you have to be punished? On the contrary, it is a group of idle people who can steal a high position, enjoy glory, and do nothing without having to do anything? ”

"If you say beware, Lingzun is the elder of the four dynasties, the country has been in power for decades, the power is overwhelming, the protégé is a former official, all over the two capitals and thirteen provinces, everyone knows Yang Ge Lao, but may not know Emperor Zhu! How not to be wary? ”

"You!"

Yang Shen stood up suddenly and glared at Zhang Xuan angrily.

Zhang Xuan calmly agreed, the two of them were like fighting cocks, staring at them for a long time, Yang Shen was full of words to say, but he felt that it was really embarrassing to waste foaming with Zhang Zhang.

He suddenly took out a handwritten edict and threw it in front of Zhang Xuan.

"See for yourself!"

Zhang Xuan was curious and found that it was the cabinet's order.

The Cabinet has basically agreed to the appointment of these meritorious personnel, and it is only waiting for the Ministry of Military Affairs to draw up a detailed list and implement it immediately!

Yang Shen snorted contemptuously and coldly, "Lord Zhang, perhaps in your opinion, the people of the Manchu Dynasty are all villains who are troubled by private messages, and they are all people who are consumed by profit. But don't forget, every scholar is a disciple of Confucius and Mencius, and they all want to send Jun Yao Shun and relieve the people from hanging. They all want to serve the Ming Dynasty, at least, not everyone is as dirty as you think! ”

"Meritocracy, meritocracy, we not only understand this truth, but also can do it! That's the proof! ”

Yang Shen's loud words were all slapped on Zhang Xuan's face.

Let you look down on scholars, let you see, what is the real scholar!

Zhang Xuan looked at the cabinet document carefully, smiled, and put it aside.

"It's not deliberately embarrassing, but how much damage does it do to civil officials if you appoint a few martial artists? The cabinet ministers are not willing to do things that benefit but do not cost, so how can they still gain a foothold in the court? The real reform is the broken wrist of a strong man, and it is a knife to himself! It's a cleansing of the intestines and stomach lavage! Eradicate real silverfish. How many scholars can do these great things? ”

Yang Shen hehe, "Zhang Xuan, since you said it, then I also have a few things to ask...... Since the first emperor, eunuchs have been appointed on a large scale, and now there are as many as 200,000 eunuchs in the inner court. These people were also stationed in various places to monitor civil and military officials. They are wantonly greedy for ink and wantonly amassing money, do you want to deal with these people? ”

"There are also overflowing clans, and now the vassal kings are multiplying, and there are more and more of them, and in some places, the annual income of the year is exhausted, and it is not enough to support the children of the clan for half a year. Do you want to abolish these royal relatives and nobles? Don't forget, the scourge of King Ning's rebellion has just passed a few days? ”

"Besides, Wen Tian is martial, the discipline is ruined, the people's hearts are chaotic, and the government is corrupt, these things are complicated, which one should not be solved?"

Yang Shen took a deep breath, "All these things are things that need to be solved urgently. Aren't the people of insight in the court worried and loyal to their wilts? Zhang Xuan, you said that scholars are the world's biggest evil, isn't it too biased? ”

Dare to love is still the sequelae left by the palace test.

Facing Yang Shen's questioning, Zhang Xuan smiled calmly, "Yang Zhuangyuan, what you said is right, but why don't you say the most of the many drawbacks?" ”

"What?"

"Nature is a land annex!" Zhang Xuan raised an octave, "The people of the world do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from unevenness, after filial piety, land annexation is flourishing day by day, displaced people are everywhere, and people who are hungry abound." Seventy percent of the annexed land fell into the hands of scholars, and you Yang Zhuangyuan won't know about these things, right? ”

Yang Shen's face darkened more and more, "Zhang Xuan, don't forget that you are also a scholar!" ”

"Of course I'm a reader! It is because I am a reader that I know what is right and what is wrong! Yang Zhuangyuan, I want to write a book, immediately inventory the land around Gyeonggi, and settle the more than 100,000 displaced people in the capital! So that they don't have to sleep in the trees, under the bridge! After autumn, no one will freeze to death, Lord Yang, would you like to go to school with me? Zhang Xuan's eyes were blazing, and he looked directly at Yang Shen......
