Chapter 899: Whampoa

'Worried about the ...... of the students who came out of the Royal House'

Zhu Xu looked at Zhou Yingqiu, his eyes moved slightly, and said, "Let's talk about it." ”

Zhou Yingqiu knew the status of the two houses of the royal court in Zhu Xu's heart, thought about it for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, the first batch, is now qualified to serve as the prefect, but they have no background, so they have been suppressed, not only in the capital, but also locally, such contradictions are expanding, the reason why the minister cooperates with the cabinet to suppress it is also because he is worried that the officials from the political court will be united, and if they continue to continue, they will form new friends, and they will be more united than in the past, and the harm will be greater......"

The Royal Political Yuan was forcibly pulled up by Zhu Xu, and most of the students who came out were arranged in the position of low-level 'officials', because most of them had no background, that is, the imperial examination, and there was no Jinshi and first.

It may have been inconspicuous before, but now five or six years have passed, and in terms of qualifications and abilities, most of them can be promoted on a large scale, but they are stuck on the 'diploma'.

Zhu Xu had also noticed this, nodded slightly, and motioned for Zhou Yingqiu to continue.

"It's not that difficult," Zhou Yingqiu leaned over slightly, and said: "Their number is not much, but in the past two years, more than 200 people have entered the office every year, and there will be more and more in the future. In addition, the minister also noticed that some different voices began to appear within these students, Cao Dingjiao, Wei Xuelian, and Meng Zhaoxiang were constantly encountering provocations, and they were afraid that they would also fall into each other internally and embark on the old road of the Donglin Party......"

'Whampoa! ’

Zhu Xu's face was as usual, and his heart was shocked.

Zhou Yingqiu's words may sound alarmist to outsiders, but Zhu Xu knows that this is simply a general trend!

This situation is a mixed blessing for Zhu Xu, and the advantage is that in the next ten years, he can use this power to carry out a strong rectification of the Ming Dynasty, without scruples of too much resistance. The disadvantage is that this force will form a natural destructive force, that is, the reappearance of the cronies, which is not in line with his original intention.

"What do you think I should do?" Zhu Xu looked at Zhou Yingqiu and said thoughtfully.

Since Zhou Yingqiu spoke, he naturally had some ideas, and said, "The minister believes that the number of students who come out of the royal government should be controlled, and they cannot be given the opportunity to connect in series, the imperial examination will be carried out by the imperial court next year, and the past students should also join, and they will be allowed to take the examination for three consecutive years, if they cannot obtain the jinshi and the first in three years, they should be 'moved', and the imperial examination must be 'fair and just', and no special treatment will be given to the royal government......"

Zhu Xu listened, this matter is also one of the sequelae of his eager reform, but what Zhou Yingqiu said is a bit excessive, if the royal government is suppressed, it will be a little deviated from his purpose of popularizing education and updating the Confucian culture of the Ming Dynasty, and it will not be conducive to the future development of the Ming Dynasty.

At the same time, with the large-scale liberalization of the commodity economy, some new ideas that should have appeared will appear faster and more, and some ideas of Gu Yanwu and others have appeared, and the future may be a little more radical than in history. These all need the help of the students of the Political Academy, and the old scholars will resist as always, Li Zhen was finally forced to die - Zhu Xu will not allow this to happen again!

"Well, I will let Zhao Han stare at this matter, there is no situation like you said at the moment, it is indeed necessary to curb it in the future, it is necessary to remove the turnips, and next year's imperial examination will be a touchstone."

Zhu Xu said. Next year's imperial examination is essentially a national joint examination for the Imperial Political Yuan, but it only allows young people of school-age from all over the country to participate in a unified competition.

Except, of course, for those on the ban.

What Zhou Yingqiu said was just a precaution, and when he saw that Zhu Xu listened to it, he said, "Yes." The other ministers said about the same in the book, Lu Daqi is also a capable official, with his help for a while, Lord Zhao will quickly become familiar with the affairs of the ministry, and the minister is not worried. ”

Zhu Xu nodded and said: "Well, this road is not very easy to walk, you go to Shanhaiguan, talk to Xiong Tingbi, if necessary, go to North Korea again, now I don't have the heart to care about North Korea, but build bridges and pave roads, we must encourage North Korea to do it, strengthen ties with Liaodong, the same is true on the sea, from the mountains. Ships coming and going from North Korea in East and Vladivostok should be encouraged, and North Korea is also a strategic place, so we cannot ignore ......"

These are relatively casual topics, Zhou Yingqiu raised his hand and said, "Yes, the minister will pay attention." Now that the snow is getting heavier and heavier, the emperor should go back as soon as possible, and there is no need to send it again. ”

Along the way, Zhu Xu was also a little confident, Zhou Yingqiu should not have a mess in Liaodong, and said with his head in his jaw: "I will send you here, you take care all the way." ”

Emperor Daming went out of the city to give away, not to mention unique, but it must be the first case of such an easy and natural gift as the one in front of him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhou Yingqiu fell to the ground and said in a deep voice.

Zhu Xu smiled and waved his hand, and when the carriage stopped, he got out of the carriage and watched Zhou Yingqiu's carriage rush to Shanhaiguan in the ice and snow.

Behind him was a carriage that was making a U-turn, and the Praetorian guards escorting him.

Cao Huachun looked up at the sky, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, it's almost time for Lord Zhao to enter Beijing." ”

Zhu Xu exhaled lightly, looked at the snow falling heavier and heavier, and said, "Well, go back, go to the cabinet." ”

On Zhu Xu's way back to the palace, two women dressed in white appeared at the corner not far from Lu Daqi's mansion - Liu Rushi and Su Xi.

The two of them stood in place with umbrellas for I don't know how long, and there was already thick snow under their feet.

Su Xi looked at the closed door of Lu Daqi's mansion, and said suspiciously, "Miss, is the person you are looking for live here?" Isn't he a clan? You should go to the Ten Kings' Mansion, right? ”

Liu Ru shook his head lightly and said, "Brother Zhu is in Ji. Nan used Lu Shilang's post, although it may be a fake identity, but he must have a good relationship with Lu Shilang, and he may come here. ”

Liu Ru has no choice, everyone who should move has already moved, but no one is willing to help. In fact, no one can help, Wang Qiaonian, the elder of the cabinet cabinet, presided over the trial, Zhang Wenda, the waiter of the Criminal Department, Shen Xun, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Lu Daqi, the waiter of the Ministry of Officials, who has the energy to say and plead for mercy?

The only way is to find 'Zhu Muyu', hoping that he will say something to reduce Qian Qianyi's guilt and release it as soon as possible, which can be regarded as her completely ending the relationship with Qian Qianyi.

"Miss, there's no way for us to wait like this, Lu Shilang won't see us, is there no other way?" Su Xi's hands and feet were cold, and he frowned when he looked at Liu Ru.

Liu Ru had long thought back to the experience of meeting 'Zhu Muyu', and really couldn't find any other way, shook his head lightly, and said, "The emperor has always been low-key, and the people around him are also unknown, since Brother Zhu has pretended to be an identity, he naturally doesn't want me to know." ”

"But it's ...... to go to the palace gate than here."

Before Su Xi finished speaking, he saw a carriage passing quickly from the corner not far away, and said in a twisted voice, "Miss, that carriage is the same as the one we have seen in Dali Temple......"

Liu Ru's beautiful eyes widened sharply, and she was just about to take a step to chase after her, when she suddenly exclaimed, and the whole person was about to fall into the snow.

"Miss!" Su Xi hurriedly held on.

"Chase!" Liu Ru ignored her sore, numb and unconscious feet, and struggled to trot forward.

Su Xi hurriedly helped her, but when she walked to the end of the road, she was no longer in sight of the carriage, and after chasing another street, she still couldn't see the carriage.

Su Xi looked at Liu Rusi, who frowned, biting her lip in pain, and said softly: "Miss, forget it, you really have nothing to do with this Zhu Gongzi, why torture yourself so much." ”

Liu Ru has always been stubborn, but there is a little blankness in her eyes.

She came to the capital to find Zhu Muyu, and to rescue Qian Qianyi, but now she can't do any of them, the opportunity is in front of her, so she watched it flow past.

This is the most complicated place in the east of the city, and the road is full of twists and turns, and it is not known where the carriage is going.

"Let's go back." Su Xi persuaded again, she had already seen the redness and swelling of Liu Ru's ankle.

Liu Ru was unwilling and helpless at the same time. In the huge capital, it is too difficult to find someone.

At this time, Zhao Han's carriage approached the capital as scheduled, and many people outside the city gate were looking forward to it, looking at it from afar.

Zhao Han had already received an appointment many days ago. There are too many government affairs in the west, and it is inevitable to make some preparations when leaving at the end of the year, so I took a few days off and then hurriedly entered Beijing.

In the carriage, accompanied by two staff, they walked all the way, analyzing the situation in the capital all the way.

One of them said, "My lord, the water in Beijing is too deep, who would have thought that Zhou Shangshu and Fu Shangshu would both leave Beijing?" ”

"Yes, King Jing, Wang Qiaonian both entered the cabinet, who could have guessed? I can't understand this situation more and more. The other frowned as well.

This is completely different from their previous views, and they have no idea which direction the situation is going to develop, which is strange and unpredictable.

Zhao Han sat east and facing west, already very dignified, his expression did not move, and he shook his head secretly.

These two are in the mountains. The west is still very insightful, but when it arrives in the capital, it will be beaten back to its original shape. The two didn't know, but he knew it very well.

The court situation in the capital, in the final analysis, is not to look at the cabinet and the thoughts of the adults in the six ministries, but the will of the emperor in the palace!

If the emperor doesn't nod, who can drive away the officials, the second book of the household? If the emperor doesn't nod, what qualifications do Wang Qiaonian and King Jing have to enter the cabinet?

Although the cabinet seems to be in the limelight and controls the power, if one day, the emperor intends to abolish the cabinet, take charge of the six ministries again, and command the world, it is a matter of one sentence!

Da Ming, after all, is still the emperor!

Zhao Han's expression was as usual, his heart was like a mirror, listening to the words of the two staff, his heart did not fluctuate.

Not long after, the accompanying guards came over and reported: "My lord, there are people at the city gate to greet you, do you want to stop?" ”

If it was an official in the past, he would have to get out of the car if he couldn't say it, Corporal Lixian, shush the cold and ask for warmth.

"Go straight to the palace!" Zhao Han said in a deep voice. In the capital, you must be clean and self-conscious, not for fear of telling the truth to outsiders, but for fear that the emperor in the palace will have other ideas - this is also one of his experiences.

"Yes." The accompanying guards stepped forward and directed the carriage to accelerate sharply towards the city gates.

A group of people at the city gate had already stepped forward with smiles, and they were all stunned when they saw it, no one dared to step forward to block the carriage, so they watched Zhao Han's carriage pass between them and enter the city gate.

More than twenty people were rather dazed, looking at each other.

Qi Yutang's husband was also in the crowd, watching the carriage disappear in front of him, in a daze, he had already spent more than twenty taels of silver - this is a huge amount of money!
