Xie Zong served as the director of Nanjing Guozijian, he was very responsible, almost all the enrollment and living arrangements of Guozijian, and made plans in advance, which made Wu Fanhui very happy, he could withdraw and mainly think about big things. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In mid-August, the list of regular and shadow supervisors was finalized.

Wu Fanhui's situation is completely clear, and every routine supervisor must obtain his consent.

Nanzhili's township examination has begun, and the determination of the list of supervisors and tribute supervisors must wait until after the township test is issued, and the people on the deputy list of the township examination can directly enter the Guozijian to study, and the people on the main list, if they will fail in the test, they can also directly enter the Guozijian to study in the summer of the next year.

The list of Yin Prisons compiled by Xie Zong is very neat, including the basic information of each person, which is attached to the back.

This can't help but make Wu Fanhui have a different view of Xie Zong, it seems that this Xie Zong is still very capable, at least he is very meticulous in doing things, but because there is no suitable opportunity, he has been serving as the magistrate of the county government, and he has not been promoted for a long time.

Learning is not the only proof of ability, and many people who are full of knowledge lack the ability to adapt to social changes.

"My lord, the lower officials have specially cleaned up the list of shadow supervisors, through contact with the Ministry of Rites, the list of shadow supervisors should have changed, many of the students here have participated in this township examination, if it is a township examination high school, it will be temporarily removed from the list, the lower officials think that the quota has been wasted, and the lower officials have put forward opinions on such arrangements when they were in the county government before."

"Lord Xie, don't have such an idea in the future, Yin Jian is qualified to enter the Guozijian by virtue of the merits of his ancestors, whether they take the township examination or not, and whether they are high school or not, this is their qualification, even if they are willing to give up the quota, ordinary people will not get this quota."

"What the lord said is that the lower officials just think that the number of places in this shadow prison can be reduced a little, so that other people have the opportunity to enter the Guozi prison to study."

"Well, that's a good idea, you can write it out, and I'll sign it."

"Thank you for your praise, the lower official still thinks about it, the lower official has just arrived in the country, and he brought up such a twist, which is a little inappropriate, and the lower official is even more afraid of affecting the adult."

Wu Fanhui smiled, it seems that Xie Zong still maintains this relative simplicity and sense of justice.

Opening the roster, Wu Fanhui looked at the roster casually, but the smile on his face quickly froze.

A few names caught his eye.

Chen Zhenhui, born in the 32nd year of Wanli, 29 years old, is a native of Yixing County, Suzhou, and a member of Nanzhili Zengguang.

Fang Yizhi, born in the 39th year of Wanli, 22 years old, is a native of Tongcheng, Anqing Prefecture, and a member of Nanzhili.

Mao Bijiang, born in the 39th year of Wanli, 22 years old, a native of Rugao County, Yangzhou Prefecture, and a member of Nanzhili Zengguang.

Wu Fanhui is very familiar with these names, and if you add Hou Fangyu of Shangqiu, Henan, it is the more famous four sons of the late Ming Dynasty.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the four sons were all from the family of Yu Shi Dafu, Chen Zhenhui was the son of Chen Yuting, the former Zuodu Yushi, Hou Fangyu was the son of Hou Xun, the current Hubu Shangshu Hou Xun, among the four sons, Mao Bijiang and Hou Fangyu had close ties with Qin Huai Bayan, among which Hou Fangyu married Li Xiangjun and Mao Bijiang married Dong Xiaowan.

Of course, at this time, the fourth prince of the late Ming Dynasty was not very famous, Hou Fangyu was born in the forty-sixth year of Wanli, and now he is only fifteen years old, three years younger than Wu Fanhui.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the four sons really became famous after the thirteenth year of Chongzhen.

But the four sons of the late Ming Dynasty all had a special background and identity, that is, members of the Restoration Society.

Hou Fangyu later became the leader of the Restoration Society, and Chen Zhenhui, Fang Yizhi and Mao Bijiang and others were later the backbone of the Restoration Society.

Seeing the names of these people, Wu Fanhui quickly thought of Fushe and Donglin Academy, and also thought of Zhou Yanru's reminder.

In fact, he had just arrived in Nanjing Guozijian to take up his post, Wu Fanhui had already felt the influence of the resumption of the society in Guozijian, and many of the prisoners were talking about the government in groups. Dengmingtang can't be the king, Changjunyi is not Zemin, the talent is declining, and the officials are stealing every day, all of which are here" This passage often comes out, you must know that this passage is the words that Zhang Pu said when he established the Fushe, and it is with these fierce words that the Fushe has resonated with many readers, and its power has continued to grow.

Wu Fanhui would never agree to the expansion of the power of the Restoration Society in the Guozijian, his impression of the Restoration Society was not very good, and it was also due to the poetry competition before participating in the examination, and the leader of the Restoration Society, Zhang Pu, who was the kind of person who followed me and those who disobeyed me, died, so that he was not cold at all.

Wu Fanhui knows that Zhang Pu, Wu Weiye and even Chen Zhenhui and others are all talents, and their personal ability is indeed good, not to mention in terms of knowledge, in the troubled times, watching the gradual decline of the country, young scholars are boiling, thinking of rising up, cheering and cheering for the country's strength, which is also understandable, but unfortunately, Zhang Pu and others are also scholars, and they have almost no political minds, they don't know why the people are suffering, and they don't know where the root of the decline of the Ming Dynasty is. Moreover, as members of the Restoration Society, not only could they not deeply explore the solution to the problem, but they fell into the party struggle and became a tool used by others, which eventually led to the faster demise of the Ming Dynasty.

It is impossible for Wu Fanhui to tolerate this kind of high-minded behavior.

It is a truth that has been proven later.

In all fairness, Wu Fanhui believes that Donglin Academy and Fushe, at the beginning of its establishment, still made some voices in terms of current affairs, but unfortunately the Donglin Party and the members of the Fushe could not resist their own identity, almost all of them were from the scholars and merchant families, because they could not get the attention of the imperial court, could not show their ambitions, and their hearts were depressed, so they gathered together to evaluate the government and discuss the current situation, their starting point seemed to be to solve the many problems existing in the Ming Dynasty, but unfortunately until the fall of the Ming Dynasty, Neither the Donglin Party nor the members of the Fushe Society were able to come up with an effective solution to the problem.

On the contrary, the Donglin Party and the members of the Fushe have spared no effort in protecting their own interests, they are resolutely opposed to the imposition of commercial and trade taxes, and they demand that the imperial court hide the wealth from the people, but in terms of how to hide the wealth from the people, they divide it into the ranks of agriculture and industry, and believe that the collection of commercial and trade taxes is the right way to abandon the basics and collect agricultural taxes.

The reason why such a suggestion was put forward, and it was desperately defended, was because the Donglin Party and the members of the Fushe Society were a combination of scholars and merchants, and they merged with each other, and it was no longer possible to distinguish between you and me.

Ironically, during the Wanli period, Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the cabinet, advocated the collection of trade taxes, so that the treasury was full, so that the Ming Dynasty appeared in the middle of the situation, and the Wanli Emperor also understood this, and resolutely levied trade taxes.

Wei Zhongxian, who was spurned, also advocated the collection of trade taxes, and would never agree to increase agricultural taxes, Wei Zhongxian was born at the bottom, knew the suffering of the peasants, and did not dare to increase the burden of the peasants, but he was ruthless to the merchants.

The so-called struggle between the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party was also a direct trigger for the collection of trade taxes.

Later history books have a very pertinent assessment of this aspect.

Whether it was after Zhang Juzheng's death or after the eunuchs were completely cleaned up, the first thing that the Donglin Party took power and did was to cancel all trade taxes and put all the burdens on the people.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, internal and external troubles, successive years of famine, and successive wars required huge expenses, relying on agricultural taxes to maintain the cost of the war, what the outcome was, obvious.

So there is a comment in history that the Donglin Party and the Fushe were one of the main culprits in the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

Wu Fanhui was well aware of history, so he had reservations about the Donglin Party and the Fushe.

I didn't expect to face a test so quickly.

Thinking about Zhou Yanru's reminder not long ago, I am afraid it has a deep meaning, which is intended to warn him Wu Fanhui to be impartial and not to forcefully suppress the Restoration Society, although the relationship between Zhang Pu, the leader of the Restoration Society, and Wu Fanhui may not be very good.

And Wen Tiren, the head of the cabinet in the capital, must also be paying attention to everything in Nan Zhili, including Nanjing Guozijian, according to Wen Tiren's old spicy, he will definitely install eyeliner in Nanjing, so as to know everything about it.

Chen Zhenhui, Fang Yizhi and Mao Bijiang and others entered the Guozijian to study as shadow eunuchs, on the one hand, it was a tentative behavior of the Donglin Party and the Fushe, and on the other hand, they also wanted to strengthen the power of the Fushe in Guozijian.

In his heart, Wu Fanhui didn't care about the Donglin Party and the Fushe, the force needed to maintain the regime, think about the Ming Dynasty when it collapsed, in the face of the iron hooves of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, what Donglin Academy, what Fushe, what Zhejiang Party, all hid in the corner, they couldn't make any sound, and they didn't dare to make any sound.

Maybe Wu Fanhui thought about it for too long, and Xie Zong couldn't help but speak.

"What else do you have to say?"

Wu Fanhui retracted his thoughts, looked at Xie Zong, and spoke word by word.

"Master Xie, Guozijian will start classes in September, I think when the class starts, it is necessary to warn all the prisoners, since they come to Guozijian to study, then focus on their studies, do not mix with other association matters, especially do not discuss matters related to the government, and when they are successful in their studies, they will naturally have the opportunity to serve the court.

"This point must be emphasized, if some people think that it is just talking, that scholars are just concerned about the government and politics, they must discuss it in private, or even discuss it openly in groups, then they will wait for the most severe punishment."
