Just when Zuo Liangyu's troops were completely annihilated, the Qing army was on the eve of Jiangnan.

The results of Chongzhen's eighteen-year Enke examination were officially announced after a one-day delay.

Xia Wanchun, a native of Songjiang Prefecture in Nanzhili, was a high school Huiyuan, and he was only fifteen years old (the man remembered the false age) and the myth of the imperial examination had already attracted the great attention of the people of Jiangnan.

In the next palace test, the cabinet will understand and put Xia Wanchun's ranking in the top three, and Zhu Youzhen will handpick the first and third places.

Zhu Youzhen naturally handpicked Xia Wanchun as the top champion.

In this way, in the eighteenth year of Chongzhen, when the war was about to burn all over the Yangtze River Basin, the third young talent of the Ming Dynasty was born!

Guanghua Daily even published an additional article, and the headline on the front page stated: Lianzhong Sanyuan Shaojinshi, pen from Rong Zhen Zhuangyuan, such an article.

The imperial examination culture has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the Ming Dynasty, and it is a system that has been accepted by the gentry and the common people, and the attention has always been the highest, especially in the area of Jiangnan, where the literary style is flourishing.

Zhu Youzhen let Xia Wanchun Lianzhong Sanyuan, which was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people through the imperial examination, so that the gentry and people in Jiangnan shifted their attention to the Sanyuan champion to the Guards.

Let everyone in the world understand that even the champion of the new department, and even the great talent like Lian Zhong Sanyuan, have joined the Guards, and they have all thrown their pens into Rong, throwing their heads and spilling their blood for the Ming Dynasty's rivers and mountains.

As an aspiring young man, what reason is there not to join the Guards.

This kind of appeal is naturally much better than Zhu Youzhen's own painstaking persuasion, and it can also effectively guide the Ming atmosphere.

Besides.

In today's era when the imperial examination is over-esteemed, such a thing as Lianzhong Sanyuan is already a symbol of auspiciousness.

Zhu Youzhen deliberately created such auspiciousness, which was also to stabilize the hearts of the people in Jiangnan.

Kai Enke, using Enke to stabilize the hearts of the world's scholars, and attract the northern scholars to move south, and at the same time use this to do another wave of positive public opinion offensive, is a small episode of Zhu Youzhen before preparing to resist the Qing army.

Just when Zhu Youzhen and the important ministers of civil and military affairs in Beijing personally attended the Qionglin Garden prepared for the new science and technology jinshi.

The news of the good news of Huang Degong, Yuan Jixian, and Liu Zhaoji's total annihilation of the Left Army happened to be delivered to Beijing.

"You are all people with lofty ideals who have read poetry and books and have the world in mind, all of them are outstanding people today, and some of them have taken on a heavy responsibility for their families and countries in the army!"

Zhu Youzhen personally raised his glass and stood in front of the gilded throne, and when he said this to the more than 300 new science and technology scholars in front of him, some of the soldiers who had not yet performed their duties in the army couldn't help but blush, as if they had a sense of shame that they had not been the first in the world.

The soldiers who had already performed their duties in the army straightened their waists a little straighter, and they seemed to have regarded themselves as Wen Tianxiang in crown uniforms.

"Some have entered the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, doing learning for the imperial court and the people, and some have entered the new school to learn the ability to apply it to the world, and are preparing to be pioneers for the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty in the future!"

As soon as Zhu Youzhen's words fell, some of the soldiers straightened their waists.

"Some have just come out of the study, or have just spent candles in the cave room, or have not yet married a wife and had children", Zhu Youzhen suddenly changed his words, which also made the new science and technology scholars who had some emotional changes relax again, and couldn't help but smile.

"But no matter what you are now, since you have been named a jinshi by me and the imperial court, you should no longer seek benefits for personal honor and disgrace and the rise and fall of your family, beware of worrying about the society of the world, and dare to be the first in the world! Among you, there are those who will be officials in the future, those who lead the army, and those who are academic, and they all end up on the same path, whether the Ming Dynasty can be revitalized depends on you, not on me, whether you can destroy the traitors, promote the good and eliminate the disadvantages, and resist the Hu people going south, it also depends on you, not on me! ”

Zhu Youzhen drank it all as he spoke, and for a while all the new science and technology scholars were excited, and the decay of the world was about to become more chaotic, but what was added was a sense of vitality of ambition.

Next, Zhu Youzhen asked the new scholars to speak or ask about current affairs.

Before that, it was the emperor who asked for advice from the new science and technology scholars, but now Zhu Youzhen has changed this way of political communication, and most of the new science and technology scholars are political rookies, and what they get from the new science and technology scholars is nothing more than all kinds of empty talk from the sage books, which obviously reverses the relationship between teachers and students.

Zhu Youzhen now wants to let the new branch jinshi ask himself and the courtiers, which is intended to educate the new science and technology in this way and convey the ruling ideas of the imperial court.

Among the more than 300 jinshi, the latest to stand up is Xia Wanchun, the champion of the new department, and the young and somewhat childish Xia Wanchun asked after Zhu Youzhen: "Your Majesty, Weichen wants to ask, when will Jiannu and Zuo Rebellion be destroyed?" ”

"The champion of the new branch is really to the point, worthy of my handpick, at a young age, I am very relieved, whether it is the Qing army, or the left rebellion, they are all unrighteous teachers, with all of you here, they can be destroyed overnight!"

As soon as Zhu Youzhen said this, the Jinshi present felt that the responsibility on their shoulders was heavier, and at this time, a new branch Jinshi named Wang Xu got up and asked: "Your Majesty, I heard that the left army has hundreds of thousands of people, and the army is in full swing, and you can go down to the south of the Yangtze River in March, I don't know if Your Majesty is ready to move the capital to patrol Hangzhou?" ”

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but smile slightly, this new science and technology scholar Wang Xu has obviously been sitting in the study for a long time, and he doesn't know current affairs, maybe it is also related to the unfavorable traffic in today's era, and the circulation of news and news is difficult to compare with future generations, so he doesn't know that Zuo Liangyu's army has been trapped for a long time.

Zhu Youzhen thought to himself that he was only afraid of the new science and technology scholars present, and many of them did not know the current situation today.

At this time, Ma Shiying, the secretary of the Ministry of War, suddenly got up and hurriedly came to Zhu Youzhen, and gave Zhu Youzhen the urgent delivery he had just received in his hand, his face was full of joy: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, Huang Degong and Yuan Jixian reported that as of March 18, hundreds of thousands of troops of the left rebellion were completely annihilated, Zuo Liangyu had been stabbed to death by Yang Tinglin and others, Zuo Mengeng, Dao Xingcheng and others were escorted into Beijing, Jin Shenghuan's troops were attached to the imperial court, Yuan Jixian, the governor of the Jiangxi Theater of the Seventh Army of the Guards Army, and Huang Degong, the chief officer of the Jiangxi Theater of the Seventh Army of the Marquis of Jingnan, have been ordered to enter Beijing to offer victory!" ”

As soon as Zhu Youzhen heard it, he quickly got up and grabbed the report, and said three times in a row, "Very good!" ”

And personally shouted to the new science and technology scholars in front of him: "You have heard it, just now, there was news that Zuo Yi was completely annihilated by my Ming Guards, and Zuo Liangyu, the head of the traitor, will soon be hanging on the city wall of Nanjing!" In the future, those who dare to rebel will end up like this! ”

As soon as Zhu Youzhen shouted this, the new science and technology scholars present were all surprised.

Not only the new Kejinshi, but also the courtiers present.

Everyone got up and bowed to Zhu Youzhen: "Congratulations to Your Majesty!" ”

"Excuse me!"

Zhu Youzhen waved his sleeves and said with a smile: "At present, although the national thief Zuo Liangyu has been eliminated, but the external troubles have not been appeased, at this time, you should work with me to conspire with the great cause, drive out the Tartars, and revive the Ming Dynasty!" ”

"Commandment!"
