Although the imperial examination system implemented since the Sui and Tang dynasties has given the same opportunities to scholars all over the world, it has to be said that it is obviously easier for families with more resources to cultivate more outstanding talents, such as the famous Wenxi Pei family in the Tang Dynasty, which is a typical example.

Although the imperial court has effectively avoided the selection policy of relying entirely on the family to transport talents to a certain extent, the imperial court has effectively avoided the selection policy of relying entirely on the family to transport talents, but in fact, there is still some dependence on the people of the family, not to mention anything else, the Duchang Jiang clan can produce a total of two generations of fifteen court officials in one door, which is an obvious example, and the former courtier, Jia Yidao, was also born in the Jia family, and the three generations of ancestors and grandchildren are all members of the court, which can be seen, Even in the late Southern Song Dynasty, the family still had a very high existence and played a role in transporting talents to the imperial court.

Correspondingly, a considerable part of the power of the imperial court actually fell into the hands of the family.

Now, Ye Yingwu's move to take charge of the world and formulate policies for different industries by establishing an academy to cultivate talents from all walks of life can be said to have further given people from poor families who study hard, and even strange people among the three religions and nine streams, a chance to stand out.

Of course, this can also greatly help the Ming Dynasty to develop towards diversification, otherwise Ye Yingwu does not know that after a hundred years, the Ming Dynasty will be as empty-sighted as in history, regard advanced technology as a strange and obscene skill, and even go to the extreme of closing the country and causing self-degeneration.

Therefore, Ye Yingwu must reform all this from the root.

Maybe Wen Tianxiang didn't know how Ye Yingwu thought of such a change, but when they saw Ye Yingwu's plan, they already understood His Majesty's intentions, and more importantly, they knew that they should stand up at this time.

The Ming Dynasty can no longer follow the old path of the former Song Dynasty, since the imperial examination system has no way to truly curb the advantages of the family, then further measures must be taken to reform the existing talent selection system of the Ming Dynasty, at least compared to doing nothing, Ye Yingwu is trying.

The world is so big, there are so many roads, someone has to give it a try, since Ye Yingwu is now ready to go to a new road, then Wen Tianxiang and they naturally don't mind accompaniing, after all, from the Xingguo Army to the present, when they followed Ye Yingwu on such a road, who would have expected that they would be in such a situation step by step?

The road opened up by this blue wisp of the road is stained with the blood of a famous soldier of the Ming Army, and it is also sprinkled with the blood and sweat of Wen Tianxiang, since Ye Yingwu intends to continue to move forward, then why not accompany him to go down?

After all, from the Xingguo Army to Nanjing and then to Youyan, such a long road has come and gone.

Ye Yingwu's eyes were blazing, looking at the ministers of civil and military affairs below, and Wen Tianxiang and the others also looked at Ye Yingwu solemnly, with firmness in their eyes.

Just like many years ago on Poyang Lake.

After Wen Tianxiang and others, the representatives and officials sent by the provinces and state governments also stood up one after another, and in the end, only a few people such as Zan Wanshou and Zhang Quan who stood up against Li Si before.

Zhang Quan looked around in some surprise, although he didn't know how many people the family had in the local state capital, but he also knew that the Ming Dynasty was advancing north very quickly, and it mainly relied on the chariots and horses of merchants from all over the country in terms of transportation, and it actually relied heavily on the local family in the rapid formation of the local state government management body, which is why Ye Yingwu even sent some Praetorian Guards to accompany the officials of the Yushitai to inspect the place before preparing for the Northern Expedition to Youyan for the last time.

In fact, there is a certain reason for worrying that these hastily promoted officials will cause some trouble because of the uneven quality of the good and the bad.

It can be said that the reason why the family has always made Ye Yingwu fearful, and even has the strength to threaten Ye Yingwu, is that they have great power at the local level, so that they can still compete with the imperial court when the central government actually has Ye Yingwu's cronies and officials in the majority.

Even if only one of the prefects and general judges in charge of the local state government is from a family, then at least half of the local officials who came to participate in the court meeting this time, even if one-third of the local officials are on the side of the family.

But now what is presented in front of Zhang Quan's eyes is another situation that he could not have imagined.

Looking at those local officials with solemn faces and loud echoes, Zhang Quan's eyes darkened, and he was even a little dizzy. For him, who has experienced a lot of ups and downs, this blow cannot be said to be small. These local officials were obviously not prepared to stand on the side of the imperial court for a long time, and it can even be said that they had just made their judgments.

Zan Wanshou shook his head slightly, obviously the situation in front of him had been predicted for a long time. These fellows are not to share in riches or afflictions.

Without waiting for Zhang Quan to say anything, Ye Yingwu's gaze swept over his face, making Zhang Quan subconsciously shut up - in fact, there were only six or seven people left in the entire court, and it didn't make a difference if they didn't agree when calculating——— and when Zhang Quan lowered his head, Ye Yingwu said unhurriedly: "Since this is the case, then after the retreat from the court, the officials of the Political Affairs Hall, the Six Ministries, the Academy of Sciences, the Hanlin Academy and various provinces will go to the imperial study, and I will discuss this matter with you in detail." ”

"Obey the order!" Officials came forward and said. And Zan Wanshou hesitated for a moment, and then stood up, did he have any other choice at this time?

Ye Yingwu nodded, and then a local official stood up and took out a book from his sleeve: "Your Majesty, the minister impeached Sichuan Province to appease Zan Wanshou, dereliction of duty and bending the law for personal gain during his tenure!" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister also impeached Sichuan Province to appease Zan Wanshou for cronyism!"

"Your Majesty's ······"

"Your Majesty's ······"

A local state official stood up and took it out of his sleeve and said it loudly, and even two or three officials stood up together in the back, so that it was not clear what they were saying.

Zan Wanshou's hand shook slightly, now whether these charges are true or false, in fact, it doesn't matter anymore, because this is like a snowflake, even if it is fake, it is enough to say that it is true, not to mention that His Majesty obviously does not intend to make him feel better, whether it is the Six Doors or the Jinyi Guard, it is usually to preside over justice, but Zan Wanshou has never doubted the ability of these two secret agent organizations in Ye Yingwu's hands to fabricate charges, but Ye Yingwu needs it or not.

After all, these movements are enough for Ye Yingwu to make a suitable judgment.

Without looking at Zhang Quan and the others in surprise, shock and panic, Zan Wanshou calmly straightened his clothes, and then bowed solemnly to Ye Yingwu, turned around and walked to the main hall, and went down to the hall to listen to the staff.

Ye Yingwu narrowed his eyes and didn't speak, these guys still saved him a lot of trouble by knowing the current affairs so well, after all, Ye Yingwu didn't really develop the Six Doors and Jinyi Wei into tools in the hands of the royal family to fabricate charges for his courtiers, these should be two dark swords similar to the special forces of later generations, rather than completely reduced to a bargaining chip for power struggle and checks and balances as in history.

However, Ye Yingwu also saw where these guys' hands came from, but he only smiled slightly and didn't say much. Since these local families have clearly chosen to stand on their side at this time, there is no need to force them back. After all, Ye Yingwu can't find so many people to completely replace them now, at least in the past few years, they are indispensable to the local management of Daming.

This time the court meeting, it seems that the unlucky ones are Zan Wanshou and those Beijing families, but everyone present knows that the family has been uprooted by His Majesty in this way that no one expected, and the emerging academic school will quickly replace the family in the next ten years or even a few years and become the backbone of the Ming Dynasty.

As for the smooth transition in between, no one can doubt it.

After all, His Majesty the Emperor, who is sitting on the throne, is young and strong, not to mention, and he still has enough wrists and a strong and healthy body sharpened by the blood and fire of the battlefield.

belongs to the era of Daming and Ye Yingwu, but it has just come.

Taking advantage of the fact that a famous minister stood up to "recite" the impeachment of Zan Wanshou, Deng Guangjian gently tugged at Liu Chenweng's sleeve beside him: "These guys are not only fully prepared, but they have already made a choice, we were really worried about Your Majesty in vain." ”

Liu Chenweng sneered: "Yes, but don't you think there's anything wrong?" ”

"Huh?" Deng Guangjian frowned, he was no better than Liu Chenweng, because he was dissatisfied with Jia Nidao's dictatorship, so after he resigned, he lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests all the year round, this hot temper did not improve much, but he gradually became unfamiliar with officialdom.

Liu Chenweng lowered his voice and said: "Pay attention, these guys' concertos are all taken out of the right sleeve with their left hand, and as long as they are not left-handed, they usually use their right hand to pull out the concerto from the left sleeve, do you know what this means?" ”

Speaking of which, Deng Guangjian was not stupid, and took a breath lightly at the moment.

It shows that what is placed in the left sleeve of these guys is likely to be the impeachment of Wen Tianxiang, Chen Yizhong, and even the two of them!

"These people ······" Deng Guangjian couldn't help but sigh.

Liu Chenweng said lightly: "So even if we ask ourselves and ask our conscience, we will be on Your Majesty's side, because all this needs someone to break and change." And Your Majesty should be the only person who can do this now, or in the past three hundred years. ”

Deng Guangjian was silent for a long time and nodded solemnly.

And Liu Chenweng didn't know if he was going to say it to Deng Guang, or if he sighed: "In any case, someone has to open up a path in this chaos, and now that Your Majesty has split a road, if we want to continue to move forward, there is only this one choice, so let's go." ”

After a pause, Liu Chenweng looked up at Ye Yingwu, who was tall above, and His Majesty the Young Emperor held the table with his hands, his eyes were like torches: "Father Xuan can still be afraid of the next generation, and his husband is not young." I believe in Your Majesty. ”

"No," Deng Guangjian interrupted Liu Chenweng and looked at him slightly, "It's not me, it's us." ”

With a "snap", the finely carved and polished chess pieces fell on the chessboard, and the old man pointed to the chessboard with some pride: "Xiang Ji Xian's nephew, this victory has been decided, although it is a catastrophe, but it should be on a certain body, so a certain luck won half a son." ”

Ma Tingyou got up and arched his hand and said: "The old minister is familiar with chess and has profound skills, and there are many concessions just now, otherwise a big dragon in the corner of the younger generation may have been cut off and eaten by the old minister." Therefore, the victory of the old man can not be called a 'fluke'. ”

Sitting opposite Ma Tingyou is the former court minister Wang Yao who has retired, Wang Yao at this time looks much more energetic than when he was in the court, and his face has even regained his ruddyness, and the fatigue caused by the ups and downs of the sea and the coming and going of the sea over the years has completely dissipated, and it seems that he is ten years younger.

In fact, it's no wonder that Wang Yao, all of a sudden, from the original internal and external troubles to the current peaceful and prosperous world, plus there are not many things to worry about, the older children in the family are more competitive, except for Wang Jin, a stinky boy who has been procrastinating until last month, let the old man hug his grandson, Wang Yao really hasn't had any worries in recent years, every day is to chant poetry, travel the mountains and rivers, if you are in a good mood, you also go to the school to guide the children in the family, and the one who lives is called a leisure, It's naturally impossible to think about this complexion.

For Ma Tingyou, who suddenly came to visit, Wang Yao was not much surprised. As soon as the court meeting ended, he had actually already received the news - it was originally at the foot of the imperial city, and Ye Yingwu had no intention of hiding anything at all, so this was naturally normal - and he had somewhat figured out Ma Tingyou's intention to come to the door.

However, Wang Yao was not in a hurry, but slowly and leisurely pulled Ma Tingyou to play a game of chess.

"The old man is not lucky, in fact, His Majesty is not lucky." Wang Yao smiled and stretched out his hand to brush his beard, and looked at Ma Tingyou opposite, "This morning, Your Majesty really played an amazing game of chess for the whole world in the Zichen Palace. Although Zan Wanshou and Zhang Quan are both talents, how can they have the power to turn the tables in front of His Majesty? It's a pity that the family looks powerful, but after all, it is just a plate of scattered sand, and they lack someone to integrate these small fists into a big fist that can really threaten the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. ”

"I'm afraid that there will be no such a hero in a few hundred years, how can I say that I will meet it, not to mention that the families in this place are originally ghostly, and it is not so easy to make them work together," Ma Tingyou nodded: "Although Your Majesty's step is worrying, but it is finally the right one, at least the current Da Ming, or the future Da Ming, will be a different Da Ming ······"

"It's not very useful to use these words to persuade this bad old man!" Wang Yao interrupted Ma Tingyou with a smile, "Xiangji, you are also a junior who is familiar with the old man, there is no need to detour some words, Your Majesty doesn't want to watch a few of us old men idle from here." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Ma Tingyou nodded solemnly: "Several of them are veterans of the Three Dynasties and highly respected, since Your Majesty plans to build more academies in order to be able to cultivate talents for the Ming Dynasty, then the people that the Academy and the Hanlin Academy can send are far from enough, so ······"

"So the idea came to us old men." Wang Yi said with a smile, "But we didn't touch the troubled waters of the battle between His Majesty and the family before, so why are we so sure that a few of us will agree." ”

The contradiction between Ye Yingwu and the family intensified before, and most of these old ministers of the former dynasty were actually in a state of watching from the wall, and this vortex actually didn't have much to do with them, and it was obvious that they didn't have the desire to wade into troubled waters. It's such an old bone, but it can't stand the toss. It wasn't until Wen Tianxiang and others came to visit later, and these old ministers led by Duchang Jiang Wanli expressed their positions one after another, but they only called on Shilin to understand and support the imperial court.

If the momentum is indeed not small, but if you want to talk about the actual effect, it is unknown, after all, Ye Yingwu is only relying on the prestige of these old men to avoid too much turmoil in the government and the opposition before he is ready to fight back.

Ma Tingyou said unhurriedly: "Now that the battle for power in the court has come to an end, the family has no skills and courage to toss, this vortex has actually calmed down, for several old ministers, in fact, His Majesty just invited you to go out of the mountain to serve as the head of a few newly formed colleges, this is just a position to teach and educate people." ”

Wang Yao was stunned for a moment, thoughtful.
