309 The number of wins and losses

Zhao Zhenji can't be regarded as a Xu party, because he is already fully qualified to stand alone. However, compared with Gao Gong, Jiangnan Wang's students are still happy to see Zhao Zhenji win, which is a conceptual identity. The power that erupted based on this recognition surprised Xu Yuanzuo.

Many elders let their children pass on the word, and if necessary, they can speak.

They don't care how much money they spend. Whether it was thousands of gold or tens of thousands of taels, it was just a number to them, and gold and silver were just things outside of their bodies. If these blockages can help them win on the battlefield of ideas, why not put them to good use?

"Everyone knows that in fact, Shizhou Gong was able to counter Xinzheng because of Lin Shilang's letter, and this letter came from the old study, presumably Jing Lian was also involved." Kang Pengzu did not participate in the March outing, because he did not have the inheritance of Wang Xue, so naturally he would not be invited.

Xu Yuanzuo met Kang Pengzu because of a school exam. The county school in the Ming Dynasty was not a pretend school, not only had classes to attend, but also had to hand in homework, and there were exams every quarter. The test results are divided into six grades, and if they fall behind, the first-class students will also be eliminated, and they will be demoted to second-class hyperplasia, third-class epiphytics, and even be taken off by the grandmaster.

As a student who didn't have time to prepare for homework and couldn't take sick leave for a long time, Xu Yuanzuo naturally bounced out of the way. He found a classmate who was slightly inferior but had a lot of hard work, and gave him money to buy exam questions. After this classmate got the exam questions, he would inevitably find a gunman to write them on his behalf, but he didn't know that this gunman had two questions, and one copy was secretly given to Xu Yuanzuo.

The gunman's name was Mei Chenggong.

Xu Yuanzuo not only kept his secrets, solved the problem of the exam, but also helped his classmates, won a lot of praise, and many loyal friends in the school helped him brush up his reputation, which can be described as killing several birds with one stone.

Although Kang Pengzu also studied hard. However, it has been hit quite hard recently, and the idea of "not reading material" was born, so his mind was also used more on the construction of the naval division and the political situation in the DPRK and China.

Xu Yuanzuo told his allies the truth: "It is indeed my handiwork. ”

"Ha, now many people say that this is a feat that Shaohu Gong is not inferior to Yanyan."

"Hehe, I've killed another Shousuke." Xu Yuanzuo tugged at the corners of his mouth. It's like laughing, but it's not smiling.

Kang Pengzu doubted: "Jing Lian doesn't seem to think so. ”

"Because they're all rejoicing too soon." Xu Yuanzuo said: "I thought about it for a few days, and after several deductions, I finally felt that it was difficult to say whether Shizhou Gong won or lost. ”

The enthusiasm in Kang Pengzu's eyes cooled down. Although he is not from Wang Xuemen, he knows how important it is for a pavilion elder of the Taizhou school. The Taizhou school is probably the school that pays the most attention to people's livelihood in the entire Ming Dynasty. Most of them got up in the market, either as craftsmen or as businessmen, and they were able to walk out of such an old man as Zhao Shizhou. It's a godsend.

It would be a shame if you couldn't grasp it.

"Jinglian, you must have a way." Kang Peng Zu Dao.

Jiangnan Shilin must be willing to contribute money and effort in order to make Zhao Zhenji defeat Gao Gong. Anyway, Zhao Zhenji is a native of Wang Xuemen. Under the guiding ideology of the unity of all schools and the family of heart learning, even if Zhao Zhenji does not recognize the Jiangnan School, the Jiangnan School must recognize him.

Xu Yuanzuo touched the beard on his chin that was gradually hardening, tilted his head and said, "Such a high-end thing." I'm inexperienced. ”

Kang Pengzu laughed silently: "This kind of thing, how many lifetimes can you encounter it?" Except for Ling Zu. Who would dare to say that they have experience? ”

"Then you say, why didn't my father make a move?" Xu Yuanzuo naturally followed Kang Pengzu's words and asked.

Kang Peng Zuden was stunned.

Yes, why didn't Xu Jie?

Xu Jie's influence is not limited to Wang Xue, he stepped up to the position of first assistant step by step, and all kinds of favors of protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over the government and the opposition. If he makes a move, isn't Zhao Zhenji's winning rate much higher? Moreover, in the history of the Ming Dynasty, there has never been such a torn face-to-face pavilion elder as Xu Jie and Gao Gong. In the party struggle of the previous dynasty, it is definitely a quick kill!

As early as the beginning of Longqing's succession, Guo Pu, a bachelor who was also a cabinet assistant, once said to Gao Gong: "(Xu Jie) slandered the first emperor, you can kill him!" Gao Gong didn't speak at the time. But then there were rumors that Gao Gong "said" that Xu Jie should be killed, which shows that the two are of the same mind.

Kang Pengzu's face changed for a long time, and then he said: "It seems that what Jing Lian has seen has surpassed me a lot. I really don't know why. Is it just because Zhang Jiangling is the heir to the mantle of Shaohu Gong? ”

Kang Pengzu didn't believe it when he said this. If Xu Jie really refused to help Zhao Zhenji because of Zhang Juzheng, then he really had to ask: Zhang Ju is your illegitimate son of Xu Jie? Even my own son doesn't have this kind of treatment!

Xu Yuanzuo lowered his eyes and looked at his boots, raised his head and said, "I'm afraid that what the eldest father means: Zhao Shizhou will not escape defeat after all." ”

Kang Pengzu breathed a sigh of relief. He could have anticipated this conclusion, but he didn't have the courage to believe it.

"Everyone is in Gaoxin Zheng and Zhao Shizhou, but no one sees Zhang Juzheng." Xu Yuanzuo said: "Probably because he is too young." ”

Zhang Juzheng is only 45 years old this year. In the officialdom of seniority, no matter which dynasty, he is too young as a ruler. This has become a protective umbrella for him, making people feel that he is fledgling, but a child who is protected by Xu Jie and Gao Gong.

"But if you carefully sort out the political situation from Jiajing to the present, you will find that Zhang Jiangling has taken on the turn of all good things, and all bad things have been avoided! The first time Gao Gong gave his respect, he went to persuade him; My eldest father sent him advice; Later, Li Shilu also had the credit for his persecution. ”

"Ahh Kang Pengzu let out an exclamation: "How can he force the first assistant to move the Yuan! ”

"At that time, Shilu Gong was a little unintentional, and Zhang Jiangling said bluntly to his face: If this is the case, he can still protect the name of the official." Xu Yuanzuo shook off the gossip casually and said: "This is what his disciple wrote to me after Shilu Gong Zhishi, and it is absolutely true. ”

Kang Pengzu was entangled: "In this way, Zhang Jiangling still has to stand on the side of the high arch?" ”

"Gao Xinzheng said that 'the Manchu Dynasty except for Uncle Zhang's incompetent generation', and someone saw him holding Zhang Jiangling's hand and said: 'I am willing to build an immortal cause with the public, do my best, and die for myself'! Zhang Jiangling's "Chen Liushi Shu" in the early years of Longqing is exactly the same as Gao Xinzheng's previous "Chen Eight Evils". Xu Yuanzuo sighed: "Which side do you say Zhang Jiangling is on?" ”

-- In this way, Zhang Jiangling is really a traitor.

Kang Pengzu was silent.

"Even if Zhang Jiangling is not on the side of Gao Gong. will never stand on Zhao Shizhou's side. There was a feud between the two. So one-on-one, can Zhao Shizhou beat Gao Xinzheng? It's hard for me to say. The key lies in the issue of the use of the guilty ministers of the Great Rites Discussion, Gao Xinzheng and the saint are of the same heart, so even if the government and the opposition oppose Xinzheng, the saint will definitely protect him because of this. Xu Yuanzuo said: "After saying it thoroughly, it's really boring to think about it." ”

Kang Pengzu was stunned for a long time. said: "Jing Lian can indeed see what others can't see. ”

"No, I'm just looking for the right focus." Xu Yuanzuo said: "However, Gaoxin Zheng should be able to let go of Jiangnan after this battle, and the court can do it if he wants to do it." ”

Although Kang Pengzu hated Gao Gong - Jiangnan Shilin didn't have a good impression of Gao Gong, but he was not at a loss and did not know the situation between the DPRK and China, and said: "Gao Xin Zheng is in favor of shipping. At the end of last year, he also wanted to open the Jiaolai River. ”

Xu Yuanzuo didn't say that the high arch was "like pink and black", but said lightly: "If you really want to go by sea, why bring up the matter of the Jiaolai River?" It was also mentioned during the Jiajing period. It has long been proven that it will not work. "Not only will it not work in the Ming Dynasty, but it will not work until Xu Yuanzuo crosses. Otherwise, how could the Communists, who were so ambitious to change the world, not dig the Jiaolai Canal? All sea vessels also had to make a detour of the Jiaodong Peninsula.

Kang Pengzu felt a little, seemed to know something, and said: "If the sea is opened, you will have to carry the grain?" ”

Xu Yuanzuo said: "That's for sure, so I want to know about the water master a year ago." ”

"After we talked last time, the sailor's boat has made some adjustments." Kang Pengzu said: "What can be built in Huguang is still being built, and two building ships have been purchased in Jiangnan. Build two centipede ships in Shimonoseki. There are old ships in the Jiajing period in Fujian and Guangdong, and six more were bought to fill the faΓ§ade. It's still at sea and hasn't arrived. ”

Xu Yuanzuo thought that no matter how he went, when the imperial court decided to ship grain by sea, the ship would always arrive. He said, "What did Shibo say? ”

"My father thinks that there are ten big ships that can carry 2,000 sailors, which is only a lot more." Kang Pengzu said: "What's more, the imperial court will definitely have to send troops to escort at that time." It won't be just our boat. ”

-- The Yunjun army cannot be assured.

Xu Yuanzuo said: "The transportation of troops is all transported by river, and I am afraid that it will not be reliable if I suddenly switch to sea transportation." Is the river the same as the sea? So it's up to us. ”

"Exactly."

"Is it easy to find sailors?"

"This is easy, the imperial court has recruited troops in the past two years before the dismissal, and we will take over. Even the weapons are gone. Kang Pengzu said.

Xu Yuanzuo couldn't help laughing. The Ming court likes to do this kind of thing to support private capital, and sells state-owned assets cheaply under the banner of saving money. However, it is difficult to say whether the officials were really stupid or fake, and in any case it was the bureaucrats and their relatives who ultimately benefited. Now Xu Yuanzuo is a member of a vested interest group, and he is also happy to hear about this.

Sure enough, it's the ass that decides the position.

"The Huai'an disaster victims and rebels roared into thieves, so it can be regarded as protecting the territory and the people." Xu Yuanzuo said.

Kang Pengzu waved his hand again and again: "How can that kind of innocent person be accepted!" Jing Lian, you are whimsical. ”

Xu Yuanzuo smiled awkwardly: "You can do this, I just want to give the people more ways to live." If you don't see it, forget it. ”

"Jing Lian's worries are very much in line with my heart, mortals have enough food and clothing, who is willing to be a thief? However, the sailors have a lot to do with it, and they can't be used. Kang Pengzu said: "In the future, the sea will be smooth, and supplies will be needed along the way, as Jing Lian once said, there can be hundreds of thousands of people who make a living because of the sea, and these people will be able to find a safe life." ”

Xu Yuanzuo nodded and said, "Exactly." The imperial court only saw that Caoyun had fed so many people, but it couldn't see that the sea could feed more people and open up territory. ”

Kang Pengzu was surprised: "Jinglian, where are you going?" ”

"Back then, Emperor Taizu Gao didn't fight the Japanese because even if he won the war, he couldn't get any benefits. Nowadays, there are red, copper, silver, and gold on the island, all of which are minerals that are urgently needed by our Ming Dynasty. Why not hit a dozen? But this matter is too far away, we have to build the sailor first, and then wait for an opportunity. Xu Yuanzuo said.

Kang Pengzu secretly said in his heart: You have learned a set of East China Sea Haikou very well. First, the port of Jinshan was opened, and then it marched into Wajima. If you really learn it, I'm afraid it's not another king of the East China Sea.

Thinking of Wang Zhi's various rumors in Japan, Kang Pengzu suddenly felt that even if he didn't study, it would be good to be an overseas king.

Of course, it is better to read books if you can read.

Kang Pengzu and Xu Yuanzuo hurriedly talked about it, and asked Xu Yuanchun what he was doing these days, and replied that he was studying and preparing for the exam behind closed doors, which was quite embarrassing. Thinking that his skills are not as good as Xu Yuanchun, his talent is not as good as Xu Yuanchun, and his hard work is not as good as Xu Yuanchun, he can't help but be quite frustrated. Xu Yuanzuo had to encourage him a few words, and Kang Pengzu went home to study.

The number of lifters in each province is fixed, but the number of students accumulated over the years is unknown. In this kind of qualification examination, most of the competitors will be eliminated, so that the admission rate of the township examination will be maintained at the ratio of 1 out of 30. Therefore, the quota of 135 people in Nanzhi must have more than 4,000 students for reference...... Even so, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult for Kang Pengzu to qualify for the imperial examination.

Unless the Kang family paves the way for him to be selected as a literary name, or prepares to participate in the examiner's "legacy".

However, even if you have obtained the qualification for the imperial examination, it is a matter of luck to be in the top 135 out of more than 4,000 students. In the end, the imperial examination is not a standardized test, and it is by no means a score that can be passed.

Who knows how many top students will pop up this year? In addition, the content of the exam is subjective, and the examiner's calligraphy aesthetic tendency is not to be discussed, and it is necessary to bother with philosophical thoughts and academic cognition alone.

All in all, Xu Yuanzuo is not happy to waste too much energy on such a thing with a success rate of less than 3.3 percent. In particular, the township examination belongs to the national talent selection ceremony, and the candidates for the main examination are determined by the two Beijing Rite Ministries, the Hanlin Academy, and the Zhan Shifu through consultation, and they can't play small tricks at all.

If there is a fraud case, it will be a prison with a wide range of implications. Not only is the president and examiner guilty, but the candidates have to lose their lifelong future, such as Tang Bohu, Xu Xiake and his grandfather. In Xu Yuanzuo's opinion, it is very uneconomical to cause such trouble for the sake of a person's identity.

However, under the influence of the examination season, Xu Yuanzuo still planned his future future. After all, Daming is an official-based society, if you don't like it, of course you can not be an official, but you have the qualifications to be an official, and occasionally brush your face in the officialdom - just like Dong Qichang, life is still very comfortable.

Perhaps, when you need it, you can donate a prison student, and then go to become a magistrate?

Xu Yuanzuo thought about it in his heart, but decided not to be tempted by the general environment and concentrate on realizing his life ideals. People do not lack ambitions, what they lack is only the determination to practice their ambitions. If you want to make a life for the people, being an official may not be the most suitable path.
