Chapter 144: Skill Competition
Seeing that Shi Fenglai's instinct to be a sycophant was committed again, Zhu Youzhen gave him a blank look, this kind of opportunity to sell well is better for himself.
"Emperor Jianwen put his personal likes and dislikes above the country's talent ceremony, and he didn't know anyone, so Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai's disciples entered the house, and the defeat of Jingjing was not wronged."
Hearing this, if Liu Ruozai didn't understand the meaning of the Son of Heaven anymore, it would be too stupid.
Without waiting for Zhu Youzhen to say again, Liu Ruozai was already in tears and knelt down and kowtowed.
"The country picks talents, how can you judge whether talents are virtuous or not based on personal preferences, and it is even more ridiculous to judge talents by appearance, I will return this champion to you today for the first emperor!"
As soon as the language is stopped, Liu Ruozai is already grateful.
"Your Majesty's kindness, the students are terrified, and they will do their best to repay the emperor's kindness with death!"
After speaking, Liu Ruozai solemnly bowed three times and bowed nine times.
"Haha, Liu Qing's words are serious, this is what you deserve, I see that your handwriting is good, and the article is excellent, just stay by my side and be a secretary."
Once faced with the saint, Liu Ruozai, who didn't even dare to hope for Jinshi before, not only became the champion, but also chose to be by the emperor's side.
And the new emperor's deeds of learning only based on character regardless of appearance have attracted praise from the sons of heaven and scholars.
At this time, a group of new science and technology scholars in the Nancheng wine shop also talked about this matter.
"Haha, the Son of Heaven has the style of becoming an ancestor, and he has the virtue of filial piety, which is really the luck of my generation of scholars, the luck of the people, and the luck of the Ming Dynasty, but the name of the brother is not beautiful, if the Son of Heaven is like the first emperor, maybe this time the champion is the right brother."
An official sitting next to Zhou Rang began to make fun of Zhou Rang's appearance, which caused everyone to laugh.
"Dean, you! It seems that you still have too few abacus beads in the household or Bara. ”
Zhou Rang pretended to be angry, and then began to squeeze his sore spots.
The official of the word De'an is named Li Chun, a second-class thirteen, and now he is in the household department to observe the government.
Since Bi Ziyan became the secretary of the household department, under the instruction of Zhu Youzhen, the household department has been rectified, one of which is to study the business.
Therefore, these scholars and doctors who were born in poetry and books have begun to look down on the abacus beads that Bara did not look down on before, and everyone is quite painful about this.
Li Chun, who had just gone to the household department, was not missed, in addition to learning the handling of household affairs with his predecessors, he was learning from an old official, and he beat his fingers red every day, and he saw that his fingers were about to be calloused.
And Bi Ziyan doesn't allow them to be lazy, and they have to take exams every month.
"Alas, I thought it would be a good thing to stay in the household, but I didn't think about it, but I did the work of the accounting room."
Li Chun spread his hands, and his face was loveless.
"Haha, De'an is not sad, the household department is in charge of the world's money and grain, to put it mildly, it is not the account room of the Ming Dynasty, and it will not be able to do it, if your account office can't even play the abacus, you will still use him."
Wang Yiren drank a glass of wine and opened his mouth to persuade.
"Alas, Brother Dao, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, you are in the Hanlin Academy, all day long, poems, books and writing, the most noble, but I don't know the suffering of our people, and De'an is quite good, like me in the Ministry of Industry, it is not only sad, I don't want to live anymore."
An official sitting next to Wang Yiren raised his hand to dry the glass of wine in front of him, and then poured himself another glass.
And Li Chun saw the same year of the Ministry of Industry, and immediately became happy again.
"Haha, when I saw Zheng Shiduo, my heart was balanced, I was sitting in the house and planning to plate, it is said that Shiduo and they were driven away by Lao Shangshu to several construction sites in the capital, and they also went to the Yellow River embankment, come and come, Shiduo, let's have a drink."
Li Chun stood up as he spoke, touched Zheng Shiduo from the Ministry of Works, and then drank it all with a smile.
Zheng Shiduo pretended to ignore Li Chun, shook his head, and raised his glass.
"You, you are accustomed to the chaos of the court in the past few decades, the Ministry of Industry does not know how to build, the household department does not understand money and food, the Ministry of War does not understand the battle formation, the Ministry of Officials is not familiar with the officials, the Ministry of Rites is not familiar with the etiquette law, the Criminal Department is not familiar with the name of the punishment, and the chaos in the court lies here."
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little dull, Wang Yiren stood up and continued.
"The officials of the six ministries do not understand their own business, and all the affairs are handed over to the officials to do, so there are many chaos in the past few decades, such as the soldiers, the emptiness of Taicang, the rampant bandits, and the unclear governance of the officials."
"Today's saint, standing in Kuangfu Sheji, Zhongxing Daming, the six departments are the world's examples, the center of the court, how can there be no cure."
Speaking of this, Wang Yiren looked towards the door, and then lowered his voice.
"I'm waiting for the newcomers, the foundation is innocent, don't follow those traitorous officials to coax, the Son of Heaven has the benevolence of filial piety, but there is no shortage of Taizu and Chengzu, and the blood stains of the eunuchs outside the Xuanwu Gate, Shaanxi and Tianjin officials have not dried up yet."
After Wang Yiren finished speaking, the whole room fell silent.
"Yes, yes, what the elder brother said is, besides, we are in the sixth department, these are all things we should understand, Sage Yun: in his position, seek his own government, let him do his duty, and the Son of Heaven should do this."
Zhou Rang made a round, and the others also nodded yes.
In the first half of the first year of Chongzhen, Zhu Youzhen conducted a large-scale military training activity in the Yamen of the Sixth Department and Jiuqing, and asked each yamen to improve their work, carry out evaluations, and eliminate mediocre officials.
This matter was organized by the cabinet, supervised by the East Factory, and personally checked by the Son of Heaven, which has caused a lot of waves in Beijing in the past year, so there was the scene discussed by the new science and technology scholars before.
"Brother Chudao, have you heard any news?"
An official who had not spoken all this time asked.
This person's name is Liu Ruxing, the word is provincial, and he is also a jinshi in the first year of Chongzhen, he was assigned to the military department to watch the government, and was sent to Jizhen to study on the spot by the ministry before, it stands to reason that he is the most unlucky, but this person has an introverted personality and few words.
"Haha, you look at the provincial brother, he is much smarter than you, he went to Jizhen, and he didn't say anything after staying with those martial artists for three or five months, and you two have a grudge after a few abacus beads turn around a few construction sites, and they really don't change."
Wang Yiren relied on his old age and took the opportunity to count it again.
"Oh, we know it's not okay to be wrong, we drank this cup and apologized to my brother, brother, let's talk about it, is there really any news."
Saying that, Zheng Shiduo and Li Chun toasted a glass of wine, and then gave another salute.
Seeing that the two of them were sincere, Wang Yiren didn't want his same year to commit a taboo, so he hit the muzzle of the gun, so he cleared his throat and said in a very low voice.
"I heard that there will be a competition after the festival, and it may be that a group of people will be dealt with, so you must be careful during this time, don't be a rafter."
After Wang Yiren finished speaking, the needles in the room could be heard.
