Chapter 171: Compete with each other
"Exactly." After listening to Emperor Hongzhi's words, Li Dongyang replied.
As soon as Li Dongyang heard Wang Shouren, he immediately cheered up, he has always been very important to Wang Shouren, and in his leisure time on official business, he would let Wang Hua's son come to the Li family's pavilion to drink tea and say some gossip.
This strange young man, in addition to being a little lacking in life, is really a malleable talent.
Li Dongyang is even a pity, if it weren't for Wang Shouren marrying Zhejiang Zhu's wife, he would have a granddaughter who has not left the cabinet, but ......
Now that he heard Wang Shouren's three names, he smiled and said: "Yes, this is the son of Wang Hua of Shaozhan Shi, Wang Hua is the first person in the seventeenth year of Chenghua. ”
Emperor Hongzhi bowed: "I see." ”
Anyway, look down at this policy article.
Just one look, he was immediately intrigued.
Whether he is a talented person or not, in fact, only need to look at the idea of his article to understand.
At the beginning of Wang Shouren, he neither talked about it nor quoted scriptures, but only wrote around one issue...... Money and Food......
Since Miru's rebellion had been going on for so long, it seemed impossible to put an immediate end to it.
That's a practical statement.
Since we are determined to carry out a protracted attack, it has become an urgent issue to ensure the stable supply of money and grain for the Guizhou army.
Since the rebellion is not a one-day effort, it is necessary to change the strategy, change the urgent suppression to the slow suppression, and ensure the stability of the grain roads in Guizhou.
In it, he also mentioned an extremely acute problem, that is, once there is a shortage of food in the army, in order to ensure military supplies, it is inevitable to ask the state officials to collect food, and once the local officials collect food from the localities, it is bound to arouse public resentment, so that not only is it difficult to exterminate the rebels, but will make the rebellion more and more intense.
In the strategy, it was unceremoniously pointed out that Yunnan and Guizhou have always lived together with Han and Tu, and the purpose of the imperial court to suppress the rebellion was not to suppress the rebellion itself, but to win the hearts and minds of the rebels.
And the most interesting thing about this Wang Shouren is that he actually began to calculate the money and grain, not only calculated the money and grain that the army will need in the future, but at the end, he even made a suggestion, thinking that if the grain transfer from Beijing is protracted and extremely expensive, the far water cannot save the near fire, so it is better to urgently transfer it from the Sichuan Political Envoy Department......
Call......
After reading this strategy, Emperor Hongzhi had a feeling of crying and laughing.
This Wang Shouren's understanding of Ma Zheng is much higher than that of other tribute students, and Emperor Hongzhi only understood after he ascended the throne that the so-called war is actually to fight silver, and grain and grass are the foundation of everything.
This article, even if it is compared with the advice of the Ministry of War, will not be bad.
Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but sigh: "Wang Hua gave birth to a good child." ”
Li Dongyang listened to this, and immediately became overjoyed, he really liked Wang Shouren's child, and the Li and Wang families were already close, Li Dongyang couldn't help but say: "Could it be that the Wang family wants to produce a father and son double champion?" ”
Father and son double champions, this is a story through the ages, the entire Ming Dynasty, although there has been a seven-jinshi, but the father-son double champion, than a seven-jinshi, but much more rare.
Emperor Hongzhi knew that this was Li Dongyang's hint, which means, why doesn't Your Majesty be an adult?
Of course, the premise of this adult beauty is that Wang Shouren's strategy is superior, but judging from the results of the current reading papers, Wang Shouren does have a great opportunity.
But Emperor Hongzhi was noncommittal: "But not necessarily." ”
only said these four words lightly, and continued to read the papers.
In his heart, more or less, he still retains hope, although he admires Wang Shouren, and is very satisfied with the answer sheet of the son of Wang Qing's family, which can be called Jane in the emperor's heart.
Can...... He was still looking forward to it, wanting to see other test papers, and most importantly, he wanted to know, can that guy Fang Jifan continue the myth of the township exam and the Hui exam?
His proud protégés, but they don't know how to answer.
Finally, Emperor Hongzhi turned to Tang Yin's scroll.
He smiled subconsciously.
Look at the volume.
The writing and intention of this policy are excellent, but only ...... Well...... Why does it look familiar?
Build a mountain camp to force ......
This...... Wasn't it the idea that Fang Jifan came up with last time?
But...... This is understandable, Tang Yin is Fang Jifan's protégé, Fang Jifan must have mentioned Guizhou's military, even so, so it is not surprising that Tang Yin and others implement their teacher's thoughts.
It's just that......
Emperor Hongzhi shook his head, a little disappointed.
When Fang Jifan proposed to build a mountain camp, he was a little hesitant, feeling that Fang Jifan's words were not unreasonable, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was not very reliable.
But in the end, he still made an order, of course, bypassing the cabinet and issuing a central order.
The reason for bypassing the cabinet is actually very simple, because Emperor Hongzhi felt that Fang Jifan was unreliable, and if it was in the name of the imperial court, it was really a bit of child's play.
He's in the mindset of giving it a try.
But now, it seems that the mountain camp has no effect, although last month, Wang Shi played, saying that the mountain camp has been established, fruitful and so on, but Emperor Hongzhi also knows that this is just a scene.
Thus...... This mountain battalion fights in the mountains and forests that the natives are good at to deal with the natives, obviously...... The effect was not significant, but I heard that because of the establishment of the mountain camp, a lot of money and food were spent.
Emperor Hongzhi felt sorry for the silver, and his flesh hurt for a lot of time.
Now, Tang Yin's article ......
Emperor Hongzhi sighed, his face showed a look of disappointment, there was no new idea, it was completely Xiao Gui Cao Sui, but it was a pity that this good writing.
With that, he set the scroll aside.
Reading the papers along the way, several of Fang Jifan's protégé strategies, Emperor Hongzhi has probably read them, Ouyang Zhi and others, and Tang Yin's articles are also the same, but Ouyang Zhi's strategies, Emperor Hongzhi prefers some, he likes Ouyang Zhi's simple style of writing, but he is too talented, and he doesn't like the rhetoric.
However, Emperor Hongzhi was still disappointed.
What a disappointment.
Whether it is Tang Yin, Ouyang Zhi, Liu Wenshan, or Jiang Chen, these people who originally had high hopes for Emperor Hongzhi all agreed and answered with Fang Jifan's thoughts.
There is no suspicion of fraud here, although they are all the same, but the way of elaboration is different. What's more, it is not surprising that they are originally from the same division, come from the same family, and have the same thinking.
However, Emperor Hongzhi actually had great doubts about this mountain camp and the method of coercion, and from a practical point of view, the will of this mountain camp was released, and the effect was very small.
It's a pity, it's a pity.
Emperor Hongzhi shook his head, feeling sorry for these protégés. As he spoke, he sandwiched these volumes after Wang Shouren and the other seven or eight articles, and did not take another look.
However, when he saw Xu Jing's volume, he felt a little bright, this policy is naturally far less than Wang Shouren's insight into current affairs, but it is also quite methodical, and the most important thing is that Xu Jing is not a toddler in Handan......
Emperor Hongzhi stared at the strategy for a long time, and then sandwiched Xu Jing's test paper between Wang Shouren and another person.
It's getting late.
Seeing that there were so many test papers, and he couldn't read them in a day and a half, Emperor Hongzhi stretched his waist, and his face showed a thick tiredness.
Seeing this, Liu Jian and the others stopped reading the file at hand, and Liu Jian said: "If Your Majesty is tired, the ministers will retire today and come back tomorrow." ”
"It's time to take a break, I'm working hard, I'm also working hard, you're older, you have to pay attention to your body."
Emperor Hongzhi smiled, but in the depths of his eyes, he still had a disappointment that could not be concealed, perhaps because he had been accustomed to Fang Jifan's various brilliance before, but now suddenly, Fang Jifan and several of his protégés suddenly fell into mediocrity, but they were not adaptable.
He paused and continued: "Take a sip of tea, relieve your fatigue, you have worked hard." ”
After that, Emperor Hongzhi gave the eunuchs on the side a look, and the eunuchs understood, in the tea room on the side, in fact, hot tea had already been prepared, and it was directly changed to the monarchs and ministers.
Li Dongyang was quite apprehensive in his heart, after he came up with the idea of the Wang family's father and son, he was a little lingering, and in today's one-day reading, His Majesty expressed his appreciation to Wang Shouren, and the other tributes were speechless.
It seems that the Wang family is going to shine this time.
He stroked his beard with a little joy on his face.
Emperor Hongzhi took a sip of tea, raised his eyes and said, "Wang Shouren will try fourth, his father is assisting the prince, right?" ”
Li Dongyang didn't say anything, after all, he was too close to the Wang family, so he praised the Wang family, and now he is a little too favoritistic.
Liu Jian replied: "Your Majesty, Wang Hua is currently the young Zhan Shi of the Zhan Mansion. ”
Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "What a talent." ”
After uttering such a noncommittal emotion, he did not continue.
It's just that...... He already had an idea in his heart, and if tomorrow, the next strategies were not brilliant, then...... It's time for him to make the final decision.
But now, he can't reveal anything.
This is the temple test.
The original intention of the palace examination was that the emperor selected the talents he thought were the most desirable, and this was crucial.
Who is pleased?
This is not only related to the emperor's temperament, but also related to the vision of His Majesty the emperor.
Emperor Hongji never doubted his vision, and he had this self-confidence.
However, this sudden emotion made Liu Jian and the others look at each other, and they were ...... There is also a rough bottom.
It's a pity, it was originally ...... I thought that a few protégés of that Fang Jifan could compete with each other, but now it seems that ......
