As a civil official, the prerequisite for mixing in officialdom is to be obedient and listening. When you are a petty official, you must be able to listen to the words of your boss, and if you are a close minister of the Son of Heaven, you must be able to listen to the words of the emperor.

If this could not be done, this official would not be able to be a magistrate, and he would have been taken down a long time ago.

Liang Menglong naturally heard what the emperor meant, this was not discussing, but letting himself carry it out. This is nothing, as a courtier, isn't this the job.

But Liang Menglong heard another layer of meaning from Zhu Yijun's words, a layer of meaning that Liang Menglong didn't dare to think about.

The emperor is to promote the status of craftsmen, once the craftsmen have completed the classification, then in addition to the different benefits, there will inevitably be different treatment, once there are privileges, then the status will naturally be differentiated.

Liang Menglong just thought of this and didn't think about it deeply, but even so, it made Liang Menglong hesitate a little.

Liang Menglong is in favor of opening up the craftsman's book, but is it necessary to promote the status of craftsmen? As a child of Confucianism, as a scholar, it is already a matter of habit to step on the position of people in other professions.

Since the deposition of Confucianism, Confucianism has suppressed various schools, and the hundreds of schools of thought are now invisible.

When the hundred schools of thought were settled, Confucianism began to suppress other trades, such as Shinong and industry and commerce, and vigorously promoted scholars. Especially in the Great Song Dynasty, the sentence that the roll call outside the Donghua Gate is a good man, which completely laid the foundation for all inferior products, only high reading.

Today, the emperor is promoting the military and nobles, which Liang Menglong can see.

Liang Menglong also thinks that there is nothing wrong with this, rich country and strong army, but is it a bit too much to raise craftsmen? Some things need to be maintained, and once broken, then many things are gone.

In fact, Liang Menglong didn't think wrong, but he thought shallowly, Zhu Yijun just wanted to break the argument that everything is inferior and only high in reading, and that he wanted to beat the argument that the roll call outside Donghua Gate was a good man.

Zhu Yijun knows very well what this argument brings to the country.

If you don't get rid of this argument, if you don't get rid of the idea that everything is inferior and only high in reading, you can't change the essence of anything.

The official position cannot be changed, whether it is in this country or other countries, the powerful people speak loudly.

But the official standard is based on the official, and only by being an official of the Ming Dynasty can you be envied and respected, not because you are a scholar in the narrow sense, these are two concepts.

Based on the civil service system, the improvement of craftsmen is the wall, and the status of soldiers is promoted as the pillar to create new values of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yijun's next step is to knock out the roll call outside the Donghua Gate, completely knock out the imperial examination, and if you want to be an official, you can, go to the civil service examination, and give me a little bit of work from the grassroots level.

The Ming Dynasty does not need an official who reads the dead book behind closed doors, an official who does not distinguish between grains and grains, and an official who takes office with several masters.

Many ministers were already in their forties when they were admitted to the Jinshi, and with the lifespan of the Ming Dynasty, how many years can they do? What can you do? Just take the test to show off your talents, and then take the civil service exam to be an official.

After the craftsman examination is completed, Zhu Yijun will give the status of a craftsman civil servant serving in the imperial court.

When the time is ripe, the scattered ranks of civil and military officials can be linked, and the army can be transferred to cadres, and cadres can also be transferred to the army. To completely defeat the pride of civil officials, although it is not possible to shout that everyone is equal, it is still possible to shout that officials are equal.

How did the military merit system of the Han Dynasty play eggs, and it was not the title of the emperor of the Han family.

There are happy events in the Son of Heaven's house, rewards, seals, the Son of Heaven is happy, rewarded, sealed, the originally very rare title was directly completed The residue was completed, and later, the title was directly bought with money.

A whole bunch of rich people began to buy knighthoods with money, and then the titles were completely flooded.

The military merit has completely collapsed, and the emperor has completely held the appointment of military generals in his hands, and is then looking for reasons to remove these people with knighthoods. The gold of the sacrifice is not in good condition, and this reason is very skillful used by the emperor of the Han family.

is in a hurry, Zhu Yijun dares to sell his body, such as giving the same Jinshi background.

This is the emperor's power, an additional gift from the Son of Heaven, not to mention whether it is sold publicly, once the reward given to the children of the nobles or the children of military merits is changed from the official position of Enyin to the same Jinshi.

Zhu Yijun wanted to see the expression of the civil official, and he added the big businessman and gave him the same Jinshi background.

Even if someone wants to stop it, it is useless, and if you want to get someone from the same Jinshi background, you will inevitably stand on Zhu Yijun's side. The emperor has rewarded you, you don't allow it, what do you want to do?

It's just that this kind of method is too damaging and too unatmospheric, Zhu Yijun can't implement it suddenly, and slow progress is the king.

After the civil service system was rolled out, Zhu Yijun could do this, he wanted to be an official and take the civil service examination, but the imperial examination was no longer available. A large number of jinshi are waiting for the platoon officer, so you can wait.

Gradually increase the promotion of civil servants and reduce the number of officials with jinshi background.

Zhu Yijun doesn't believe that these people will not change their courts, and they are not studying to be officials, nor to get ahead. If Jinshi can't be an official, but can show off his talents, Zhu Yijun doesn't believe that people in the world will not flock to him.

As for a few defenders, Zhu Yijun didn't care, and gave them three words: Go and die!

Although Liang Menglong could listen, how could he have thought that the emperor of his family was planning such a shady thing. The Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty had princes outside the tail, and there were patriarchs and princes in power, and the Son of Heaven of the Han family did such a shameless thing.

Since the Han Dynasty, there has basically been no emperor of that generation who has done this, and there is no lower limit.

But Liang Menglong didn't know what the emperor of his family was thinking, he didn't know that his emperor basically had no lower limit, especially after he saw that the officials of the Ming Dynasty had no lower limit at all, and his lower limit was gone.

What is Discipline? It's long gone, it's gone, whoever picks it up, give it back to me.

It can be seen from the Confucian family's various surrenders and the sycophants of whoever is in power that Confucianism really has no lower limit. These people who are officials have no lower limit.

In the past few years, Zhu Yijun has been deeply touched by this point.

Liang Menglong didn't know what the son of heaven in his family was thinking, and after pondering for a long time, he felt that improving the status of craftsmen would not cause too many consequences, and could craftsmen still be officials?

After pondering for a while, Liang Menglong made a decision in his heart, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the Holy Candle is shining, this discussion is very good." ”

Listening to Liang Menglong's words, Zhu Yijun immediately breathed a sigh of relief, laughed and said: "Okay, since this is the case, then I will handle this matter with Aiqing, according to Aiqing's play, start with the warcraftsman." ”

"The military craftsman starts with the place of military reform, and Aiqing must be dedicated."

Liang Menglong hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will definitely do his best to live up to His Majesty's trust!" ”

Looking at the back of Liang Menglong leaving, Zhu Yijun sighed, it has been fifteen years since he crossed over by himself. Ten years of incubation and training, five years of careful trial layout, today is finally the time to move seriously.

"Success or failure, give it a shot here!" Zhu Yijun said with a serious face.

The recent period of time in the capital can be said to be eventful, and it was originally fine after the New Year, but since the Department of Law and Discipline began to arrest people, things have begun to become chaotic.

Embezzlement of more than 80 times was sentenced to hanging, and the emperor wanted to strictly enforce the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and the officials panicked.

The cabinet came up with a proposal to revise the Da Ming Law, and things went in another direction, at first it was a quarrel, it was a letter, but with the stalemate of the situation, things began to develop in an unpredictable direction.

There was a sudden argument in the court and among the people, that is, "time changes, and there is no way in the world that is not suitable for eternity." It seems to be a footnote to revise the Da Ming Law, but this kind of thinking spreads faster than everyone imagined.

The people of the Xinxue sect began to trumpet this kind of statement, and for a while, the civil officialdom was all talking about this.

Everyone knows that the current cabinet scholar Shen Shixing is a member of the heart school, and the former cabinet scholar Zhang Juzheng is also a person of the heart school, and the situation has become more chaotic for a while.

At this time, in the land of the capital, a not very large sect of mind was born.

This sect was born out of the Taizhou school of mind, and the founder was Li Zhen, and the number was not large, and it did not attract too many people's attention. But when the matter of Da Ming Law became noisy, they seemed to appear suddenly.

They oppose the existence of heavenly principles to destroy human desires, vigorously criticize the science of science, and advocate the same desire with the people, everyone is born with desires, this is the principle of heaven, such as if you don't eat, you will be hungry, if you don't drink, you will be thirsty, all of them are human desires.

In terms of political advocacy, they advocate the unity of knowledge and action, and bow to the people.

Walking between the people, doing practical things for the people, opposing the formalism of the high, advocating that the four people are all the same, and the industry is not divided into high and low. The high ground of man should be judged by cultivation and behavior, not by the profession he is engaged in.

Advocate the glory of labor, and my remuneration to support my parents and wives should be respected.

For the nobles and nobles, they advocate the glory of the nobility, and all the nobles and nobles should have the standards of the nobility, and they should despise the people who harm the people. As for officials, they advocate honesty and self-discipline, and advocate enriching the people and strengthening the army.

Officials should not sit in the yamen, but should walk in Qianmo and plough with the people.

For individuals, they advocate that no one is perfect, to face up to the shortcomings, the ruler is long, the inch is short, to learn to know people well, to be modest and prudent, and to learn to ask others for advice.

There must be a teacher in a threesome, even if it is an ordinary craftsman, it can be my teacher.

The whole school appeared very abruptly, and the ideas advocated were also very intense, from the four people to advocating human desires, from advocating the change of time to the unity of bowing and acting, from advocating the Ming ghost to the heavenly will, as soon as this school came out, it shocked many people in an instant.

Because although this school of thought is under the banner of Xinxue, many places are contrary to Xinxue.

For example, Ming ghosts and Tianzhi, which are all Mohist thoughts, advocate that there are laws to follow, laws must be followed, law enforcement must be strict, and violations must be investigated, this is the thought of Legalism, and the people who advocate want to say it are the ideas of the Xunzi school.

The whole school is a mixture of Confucian Mohist and Legalist thoughts, and selects the ideas of the Confucian Xunzi school, holding high the idea of the great revenge of the Ram Spring and Autumn Period, and under the banner of opening the sect and clarifying the righteousness and purifying the source.

From the very beginning of its birth, this school of thought has been in a posture of sweeping science to the garbage heap.

Although the science of mind and science have always been arguing, and there is even no lack of mutual suppression, but in recent years, the science of mind and science have been at peace with each other, and it is really rare to hold such a banner high!

Of course, as soon as the doctrine came out, it was naturally rebuked by countless people for heresy.

Many people clamored to complain to the Yamen, but the court was silent on this matter, and no one spoke. The people outside don't know, but the main ministers in the court know it.

That Li Zhen is the gentleman of the Civil Service Academy, what is the place of the Civil Service Academy?

It is the emperor's place, it can be said that the water can't be splashed and the needle can't be inserted, and now this Li Zhen jumped out, the palace didn't react at all, and they weren't stupid, so they naturally understood that this was the meaning of the palace.

Can a single Li Zhen make such a big deal in such a short period of time?

Of course, Zhu Yijun made these out, and this time he mobilized all the public opinion manpower installed by Zhu Yijun in the capital to vigorously promote new ideas, and this school called Neo-Confucianism became famous in Beijing for a while.

Inside the palace, the expression on Zhu Yijun's face was very indifferent, looking outside the palace wall, Zhu Yijun knew what was brewing there.

In fact, Zhu Yijun has been brewing for a long time, and what he is waiting for is this day. This trick was learned from his grandfather Emperor Jiajing, you must know that after Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne, the first thing was the great etiquette.

He wants to give his dad a honorific name, in fact, does he really want to give his dad a honorific name?

Zhu Yijun doesn't seem to be that simple, he just needs to open up a battlefield and then let the minister stand in line. Those who support me are my people, and those who don't support me are not my people, it's as simple as that.

Putting the battlefield above etiquette will not involve court affairs, and the loss will be much smaller.

The main battlefield of the party struggle at the end of the Ming Dynasty was Liaodong, what was the result of the struggle? Liaodong is completely eroded, which is unacceptable. Zhu Yijun learned a lesson and naturally knew what to do.

Put the battlefield on the ideological struggle, those who agree with me are good comrades, and those who disagree with them should go home!

Zhu Yijun made up his mind this time, these ministers in the court, no matter who they were, as long as they stood up to criticize Neo-Confucianism and stood on the opposite side of themselves, they would inevitably have to clean it up.

There is no room for negotiation, and cleaning the court is something he should have done a long time ago.

The next reform move will be very big, and what I need is a team of officials who are unconditionally obedient. Even if there are some flaws in the person, it doesn't matter, as long as you can do the things you explain, it's enough.

At this moment, Zhu Yijun understood Zhang Juzheng's employment better.

Some people seem to be good, capable, and have ideas, but they don't think the same way as yours, and they don't have the mood or energy to argue with each other, so just take it out!
