Hearts, hearts, alas! ”

Under the rule of the entire People's Army, I don't know how many people shook their heads and sighed because they knew that many intellectuals participated in the imperial examinations of the People's Army.

These people who shook their heads and sighed were not necessarily so loyal to the Ming Dynasty, but they were very emotional about the transformation of intellectuals under the rule of the People's Army, and the people at the bottom could be bought by the "small favors" of the People's Army.

The first imperial examination of the People's Army has ended, and candidates from all over the country have sent special personnel to escort their examination papers to Guangzhou City, where they will be reviewed and scored together, and finally a ranking will be listed and hired according to the scores.

By the time the scores were announced, almost a month later, the candidates were anxiously waiting.

Time passed quickly, and it was still some time before the announcement of the results of the People's Army's imperial examinations, and the news of the People's Army's holding of the imperial examinations had reached the capital, the political center of the Ming Dynasty.

Knowing that the People's Army held the imperial examination and that thousands of people were participating, Zhu Yijun's angry eyes seemed to erupt into flames.

The imperial examination is a very important thing for a dynasty, literati scholars all over the country read the books of sages and sages, and finally entered the court as officials through the imperial examination, this is the way for literati scholars to enter the body, originally belonged to the Ming Dynasty, but now the People's Army, the anti-thief, held the imperial examination, and there are thousands of people to participate, which is digging the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

You don't have to guess to know that the thousands of people who participated in the imperial examination are all scholars, and the scholars should have been loyal to the Ming Dynasty, but now they are participating in the imperial examination of the People's Army and want to join the People's Army, as the ruler of the Ming Dynasty, how can Zhu Yijun not be angry and angry.

Zhu Yijun knows that the People's Army has bought off the common people by dividing the land among the people at the bottom, and Zhu Yijun doesn't care much about this, he must just be a fool of the people, and there are thousands of foolish people under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, and it doesn't matter if he kills all the foolish people under the rule of the People's Army after the People's Army is destroyed.

But now there are a large number of literati scholars who should have been loyal to the Ming Dynasty to the People's Army, Zhu Yijun really can't understand why these literati scholars have fallen to the People's Army, and the Ming Dynasty has never treated literati scholars badly.

Not only was Zhu Yijun angry and angry, but the ministers in the court were also very angry about the fact that a large number of literati and scholars in Guangdong had defected to the enemy, and the matter of literati and scholars defecting to the thieves had happened repeatedly, but this time it had never been so serious, and the ministers were even worried that the emperor would reject them because of this incident.

One minister after another took the initiative to make suggestions to Zhu Yijun, asking Zhu Yijun to punish these literati and scholars who had defected to the enemy after the imperial army exterminated the people's army.

Zhu Yijun agreed, and Zhu Yijun not only agreed that the minister would punish these literati and scholars of the nine clans, but also planned to clean up the common people in the entire land of Guangdong after the People's Army was exterminated.

In Zhu Yijun's view, even if they are foolish people, they have now betrayed the Ming Dynasty, they are all sinners, the Ming Dynasty will not accept them, and their end is only a dead end.

Daming has a population of hundreds of millions, the population of Guangdong is less than 10 million, and the impact of killing all of them on Daming is not great, Daming is not short of population now, what is lacking is land, and some ordinary people can occupy the land in Guangdong by moving from other places in the past.

Of course, Zhu Yijun will not say such a thing in person, as an emperor, he must maintain "benevolence", as long as he hints at the courtiers, there will soon be courtiers to get this matter done.

Throughout the Ming Dynasty, criticism of the People's Army's holding of the imperial examinations and the participation of thousands of people in the imperial examinations gradually shifted from the court to the court, and many literati and scholars began to criticize it.

The influence of the People's Army, which had occupied most of Guangdong and defeated the Ming Army many times, was already very high under the Ming Dynasty, and many literati and scholars regarded the People's Army as a topic of discussion, discussing when the imperial court would be able to exterminate the People's Army, whether the People's Army would be starving everywhere under its rule, and whether the People's Army would eat human flesh......

Without going to the battlefield in person, these literati scholars naturally found it difficult to understand the strength of the People's Army, and thought that the Ming Dynasty would eventually exterminate the People's Army, so these literati scholars still had time to chat.

"How dare a mere anti-thief hold a imperial examination? It's really ridiculous and generous! ”

"Those people in Guangdong are really our shame, it is ridiculous that they actually surrendered to the enemy."

"A little thief, the court will definitely exterminate him."

……

However, there are also literati scholars with deep backgrounds and wide information channels who are very cautious about the People's Army, and the imperial court sent hundreds of thousands of troops to encircle and suppress the People's Army, all of which were defeated, and the People's Army is not an ordinary anti-thief, this anti-thief even began to hold the imperial examination, and thousands of people participated, once the People's Army has more talents, the Ming Dynasty is in danger.

In a teahouse in Nanchang City, Wu Xinji listened to other people's criticism of the People's Army's holding of the imperial examination, and an idea came to his mind, he wanted to go to Guangdong to join the People's Army.

Don't look at the ordinary clothes that Wu Xinji wears now, it looks like just an ordinary Confucian student, but ten years ago, Wu Xinji was the son of a big landowner, and he didn't have to worry about food and clothing.

It's a pity that the Wu family fell under a series of conspiracies, his father died of illness, most of the family wealth was taken away by the mastermind behind the scenes, and the orphans and widows survived under the care of a friend of their father, but because of the death of their father, their mother died of depression soon in grief.

Wu Xinji wants to take revenge, for him who has become an ordinary person, there is only one way to take revenge, and that is to become an official through the imperial examination.

But Wu Xinji's road to the imperial examination was very unsmooth, not that his talent was not enough, Wu Xinji felt that someone was attacking him behind him, always creating accidents for him, and some people had even issued a warning to Wu Xinji, asking Wu Xinji to either live as an ordinary person, or die.

Killing people is a more troublesome thing, even if he attacked the Wu family back then, he didn't kill people directly, Wu Xinji's father died of illness.

Facing the enemy's warning, Wu Xinji's mind was full of anger, but he was helpless, he was just an ordinary person, he couldn't become an official through the imperial examination, how could he be the opponent of those enemies, and now even the road to the imperial examination was blocked by the enemy.

Being in Nanchang City, Jiangxi, Wu Xinji naturally knows a little about what happened in Guangdong, but unlike the ordinary people in the border areas, Wu Xinji cannot personally contact the People's Army, but only understands the People's Army from other people's conversations.

The government's statement about the People's Army is naturally vicious, and the vast majority of people in Nanchang City also think that the People's Army is very vicious, and in this case, Wu Xinji has no idea about the People's Army.

However, as the People's Army continued to defeat the People's Army, and there was gossip that the People's Army was very good to the people, the impression of the People's Army in Wu Xinji's mind slowly changed, and now the People's Army reported the matter of the imperial examination, which made Wu Xinji have the idea of joining the People's Army.

However, Wu Xinji, who is still in a state of resignation, doesn't know when he will be able to make up his mind.
