readx; Zhu Youzhen cleanly dismissed Huang Liji, the first assistant, from his post, which caused a conjecture in the court. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoOn the one hand, the emperor even said that the first assistant was just a stop, and whose official couldn't stop? This made many officials panic.

On the other hand, the vacancy of the first assistant also gave some officials hope for promotion. In particular, the officials of the Donglin Department want to take this opportunity to expel Shi Fenglai and the other three cabinet ministers from the cabinet and restore the situation of the Donglin Party dominating the world.

But then Zhu Youzhen's will was incomprehensible to the ministers. He issued four holy decrees in a row, respectively appointing Sun Chengzong and Yuan Keli, who were idle at home, as the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials and the right attendant of the Ministry of War, and transferred the king of the Nanjing Military Department to the Beijing Division and served as the secretary of the household department. Finally, it was announced that this spring will open Enke to take the office, but there will be no restrictions on the qualifications of candidates, and those who are willing to be officials and have the ability to take the Beijing Normal Examination will be allowed to register.

If Sun Chengzong has a good relationship with the Donglin Party, then Yuan Keli and Wang Zaijin have nothing to do with the Donglin Party and belong to the centrists among the ministers. This made the Donglin Party ministers, who were full of enthusiasm and eager to seize power, a little confused.

As for this unprecedented Enko, it was even more unexpected by everyone. Because according to the imperial examination system of this era, the imperial examination is divided into three levels: the hospital examination, the township examination, and the general examination. Only those who are lifted are eligible to take the examination, and the examination is only held once every three years.

Although the emperor in the past would also open "Enke", that is, an additional examination, the qualification of candidates has never changed, and the size of the candidates for each reference is generally controlled at about three or four thousand, and the admission rate is about 10 percent.

For the vast majority of readers, let alone taking the entrance examination, they can't even pass the township examination, because the admission rate of the township examination is even lower, only less than five percent. Some people have been taking the imperial examination for a lifetime, and they are still old children when they die. Now Chongzhen wants to let everyone participate in Enke, isn't this going to let hundreds of thousands of scholars come to Beijing to take the exam? And how much should I be admitted? Even if you don't consider these, you can't arrange just room and board, and the examination room!

But this time, no one criticized Zhu Youzhen's decision. On the one hand, Huang Liji's lessons from the past are there, whoever opposes them will throw away the black hat, and no one is willing to take this risk; On the other hand, the ministers were also a little gloating, wanting to see how Enko could not end this time, so that the young emperor could learn some lessons and stop looking down on them who had been selected through the imperial examination.

But Zhu Youzhen has his own plans. Of course, he wants to uproot the eunuch forces, because these people, whether they are talented or not, are all virtuous, treacherous, insidious, and selfish. The appointment of such people as officials is a typical disaster for the country and the people.

But for the Donglin Party, Zhu Youzhen is not cold. He had a lot of dealings with Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou before, although there were many righteous men and gentlemen among them, and all of them were full of wealth, but their actual work ability was not very good, especially in the economy and military, and they didn't know anything about it.

Not only that, in order to fight with the Zhejiang Party, the Chu Party and other political groups, the Donglin Party also formed gangs and excluded dissidents. Just like the previous official department Shangshu ** star, in the Beijing Chacha, all Donglin Party members were promoted, and all Zhejiang Party and Chu Party were derogatory, and this kind of behavior is not much different from the Eunuch Party.

Zhu Youzhen didn't want to press the gourd to get up and scoop, and defeated the eunuch party, and a more powerful Donglin party appeared. What he really wants to do is to give the officialdom a big change of blood, the capable go up, the mediocre go down, and make the best use of their talents, whether it is a villain with a bad heart or a nerd who can only drop his book bag, all go home and sell sweet potatoes!

Of course, the meal has to be eaten one bite at a time, and it is impossible for Zhu Youzhen to come up and dismiss all the existing ministers, so that the imperial court will not be able to function. Therefore, he first promoted Sun Chengzong, Yuan Keli, and Wang Zaijin, all of whom were experienced ministers, and they could borrow their character and prestige to completely eradicate the eunuchs. Then select talents who meet their own employment standards from Enke, and gradually arrange important positions in a few years.

So far, Zhu Youzhen is very satisfied with the series of decisions he has made, and the situation is developing in a direction that is becoming more and more favorable to him according to his expectations. But the only thing that surprised him was that Empress Dowager Zhang refused to return to the palace!

The officials of the Ministry of Rites have been ordered to go to Tanzhe Temple twice to invite the Empress Dowager Zhang, but the Empress Dowager Zhang has closed the door and only asked the personal palace maid who became a monk with her to reply, saying that the Empress Dowager has no nostalgia for the world, and is willing to accompany the ancient Buddha of the green lantern for a long time and pray for the emperor and the empress. Even though the official lobbyist of the Ministry of Rites has been relegated to the Huanyi Bureau, it can be said that the revenge has been avenged, but the Queen Mother is still unmoved. After listening to the recital, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but feel stunned.

A few days later, Yin of Shuntian Mansion came to report: The queen and Concubine De have entered the realm of Shuntian Mansion, accompanied by Yan Ling, Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others.

It turned out that since receiving the Holy Decree of the Apocalypse, which had not yet died at that time, Rui'er and Bao Yulian had already set off from Qinwangzhuang to Beijing. On the way, Zhu Youzhen ascended the throne as the emperor, and because of the dangerous situation in Beijing, Qi Meifeng immediately passed a message to Rui'er Feige, asking them to go all the way slowly.

Later, Zhu Youzhen pacified the rebellious party in one fell swoop, but Rui'er and Bao Yulian were trapped in Kaifeng City due to heavy snow closures. It happened that Yan Ling was ordered to Henan to invite the "Six Gentlemen of Donglin" back to Beijing, and the two people were in one place, so they came at the same time.

Zhu Youzhen was overjoyed and immediately arranged to greet him in person. And not just out of the city, but fifty miles away. At this time, some courtiers felt that it was inappropriate, and Shangshu said that Zhu Youzhen was the son of heaven, and it was not appropriate to go out to greet him at will except for the triumph of the army. Unexpectedly, he was immediately reprimanded by Zhu Youzhen: "I, the queen, and Concubine De are husband and wife in distress, why not welcome them from afar?" Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others are all loyal and dedicated countrymen, what is the fault of Long Yu? ”

On the second day, under the strict protection of 3,000 Qin soldiers, Zhu Youzhen led hundreds of civil and military officials to ride out of the city on horseback and wait at the Changting Pavilion, 50 miles south of Beijing.

The emperor left the palace, which was an extremely rare event. Especially as soon as Chongzhen Fu ascended the throne, he overthrew Wei Zhongxian, and the people of Beijing all cheered, and they all wanted to take this opportunity to see the sky. Even fifty miles away, there were still people gathered on both sides of the road, and the sound of the mountains shouting long live was endless, which made Zhu Youzhen feel embarrassed. I didn't expect to come out once, and it brought a lot of trouble to the people, at least I couldn't work on this day.

Not long after, Yan Ling led the army to protect Rui'er and the others' cars. As soon as the car stopped, Rui'er and Bao Yulian jumped down, stumbled to Zhu Youzhen, hugged him and cried: "Long live!" You were injured in the explosion and are you healed? ”

Zhu Youzhen's heart stabbed violently, and Li Zhenyan's voice and smile appeared in front of him again. Although he comforted Rui'er and Bao Yulian in his mouth, "Everything is fine", tears still couldn't help but burst out of his eyes.
