The ninth day of the second month of the first year of Hongguang is a big day for Gou An's scholars in the southeast half of the country, especially those who have made great achievements. --

On this day, the imperial court opened Enke and held an examination in Nanjing, selecting talents to enrich the Ya 'Gate' at all levels of the reconstructed Ming Dynasty court.

In fact, the current Hongguang regime is already overcrowded. There is a saying among the people that says exactly this: "The governor is like a dog, the staff walks all over the street, the prince only loves money, and the emperor eats wine." ”

The so-called official refers to Lang Zhong, who is at the level of the secretary of the imperial court, and the minister refers to Ma Shiying, the second assistant of the cabinet who is in charge of state affairs.

Since Hongguang ascended the throne, the small imperial court in Nanjing has been rebuilt. In the beginning, the Hongguang regime was based on the six ministries of Nanjing. After the party struggle, Donglin was purged, replaced, and rebuilt, and the government was finally on the right track.

But at this time, another problem arose. Since Li Zicheng was defeated in the first half of last year and driven out of the capital by Jiannu, the officials who had been trapped in Beijing in the past took advantage of this opportunity to flee south to Nanjing.

Now it's troublesome, after all, these people are registered officials, and their hearts have gone through a lot of hardships to run back to Daming, many people are abandoning their families and being alone, and the court can't ignore it, otherwise how can the people of the world be convinced.

There is no way, I can only go back together, and even the screening is waived.

But the problem came again, the officials of the two Beijing were merged into one, and as a result, the ministries and courtyards in Beijing were overcrowded. In the past, one person could do a good job, but now there are at least three people, and this is the staff walking all over the street.

As for the love of money, Ma Shiying felt that it was too wrong. Damn, now the court is so poor that it is 'forced', and the work of so many people every month is light, and the old horse has to pick his scalp for a long time. Even the two million taels of silver promised to Sun Yuan and the four towns of Jiangbei for the Northern Expedition have been in arrears, not only that, but he even borrowed two million yuan from Sun Yuan, so that Hongguang Tianzi and the imperial court could barely spend a decent 'spring' festival.

Yuan is the unit of Sun Yuan Yingyang, and one yuan Yingyang weighs seven coins and two cents of silver

。 Actually, not yet.

In the early days, Yingyang was indeed sterling silver, but later, because the credit was getting better and better, the silver content in it gradually decreased by ninety. With Sun Yuan's greed, it is estimated that it will fall in the future.

However, whoever calls the credit of Yangzhou Town is good, and the people recognize this.

When Ma Shiying borrowed money from Sun Yuan, it was easy to say something, so Sun Yuan nodded. However, the condition is that it is only given to Yingyang, and there is no silver. Moreover, some of the two million eagles have to be converted into copper coins. Yangzhou Town had already begun to mint red light treasures before the imperial court issued new money, and the imperial court had nothing to do with him. It is conceivable that in the next year, Sun Yuanguang will not have to do anything, and he will have enough money and interest.

If in the peaceful years, Sun Yuan would have set up a separate court outside the court and shake the foundation of the country.

But now, the court really has no way to take Sun Yuan, so he can only pinch his nose and admit it.

Lao Ma is an unprincipled person, in order to stabilize the political situation of the imperial court and stabilize his own phase, he had to reluctantly accept the Yingyang and Hongguang Tongbao sent by Sun Yuanjie. The 'sexual' nature of this matter is serious, which is equivalent to the official recognition of Sun Yuan's coinage right by the state.

After the bad minister received the new Yulu, he scolded him, scolding Sun Yuan for his wolf ambition and Ma Shiying's 'traitor' to bring disaster to the country. But Donglin has completely collapsed, and as soon as Emperor Hongguang heard that the expenses of the imperial court for the New Year had been implemented, Longyan Dayue, not only did not punish this Wen Yiwu and the two people, but also greatly commended them. He also said, it's all money anyway, if you don't get used to it, it's a big deal to melt it and cast it into silver ingots when you go back.

Just kidding, melted and reforged, isn't it interesting? Not to mention that it is too troublesome, the key is that the silver content of Yingyang is insufficient, if it is melted, everyone's salary will not shrink by one percent. It's better to use it like this, and the money is recognized in the market anyway.

So, scolding and scolding, everyone didn't have any integrity when they took the money.

In order to appease the hundred officials, Ma Shiying summoned Yu Xiang, director of the Ningxiang Army Office in Beijing. Yu Xiang couldn't stand it, and after asking Sun Yuan, he took out 30,000 yuan from the funds of the Beijing Office and gave it to Ma Shiying, which was used as a tribute to officials above the seventh grade in Beijing.

In this way, everything is silent.

Although the officials in the capital verbally scolded Ma Shiying for being very fierce, they still had to admit in their hearts that this Ma Yaocao was a good financial manager. Some people even had a thought in their hearts: If it is Shi Xianzhi who is in power, I am afraid that everyone will have a hard time during the Chinese New Year this year

。

The court had money, and this issue of Enko was held as scheduled.

The chief examiner is Qian Qianyi, a traitor from Donglin who has re-emerged from the mountain, during this time, the old man Qian is very beautiful, and he has already lived in the Tribute Academy half a month in advance and became his great master. It is said that after the 'spring', the old money will be added to the cabinet because of the meritorious service.

This is a contest between Kaienke and the Hongguang Dynasty, and it is also a contest between Emperor Hongguang and Ma Shiying and the Donglin Party.

Therefore, before this, Donglin had already mobilized Nan Shizi to make a few troubles. The first was to protest against the court's dismissal of the Donglin gentlemen, so that the 'traitor' in the court was in charge. Please ask the Son of Heaven to re-employ Gao Hongtu, Zhang Shenyan, Jiang Yueguang and others; The second was to protest against the emperor's re-establishment of factory guards and 'desire' to re-enstock the 'chaotic' political affairs of the eunuch party in the year of the Apocalypse; the third was to protest against the fact that Yingchuan Hou Sun Yuan, the chief military officer of Yangzhou Town, 'privately' minted coins, supported the army and divided the territory, and rebelled. Moreover, robbing the people's 'women' has caused my southeastern scholars to be 'humiliated'.

At this time, he and Hongguang reached a consensus: if you want to quell the 'commotion' and 'chaos' of the southeast scholars, the best way is to buy and divide, and the opening of the imperial examination is the best way to deal with it.

This is Enke, once the Chinese style, you are the 'protégé' of the Son of Heaven, as a student, you are always embarrassed to work against the emperor's teacher and the imperial court, right?

As soon as the notice of the imperial court Kaienke was posted, all the students who were making a fuss immediately dispersed and ran home to prepare for the exam. In the end, righteousness or anything is not as important as his own future.

As a result, the surging student movement died down.

Nowadays, the whole Nanjing street is full of scholars, and the literary society is working one after another, and the first thing everyone does when they meet is to learn art.

The anthologies in the bookstore were sold out of stock, and the major inns were full, and it was difficult to find a 'bed'. The major monasteries and Taoist temples in the city are also full of people.

As a result of the influx of scholars from the entire southeast into Nanjing, the city has become extremely prosperous, and it is really a "chaos", "flower" and "fascination", and there is a scene of cooking oil in a blazing fire.

It gives people the illusion of being in a peaceful and prosperous world.

Unlike Nanjing, the civil service examination in Yangzhou Town is a different scene.
