Chapter 23: Participating in the Township Examination
Zhu Qizhen groaned and touched the stubble on his chin, this is a way, relying on people's consciousness, most of them are useless.
It is better for someone to consider the consequences of everything they do than to see one and kill another.
"Let's not talk about the Zongren Mansion first, do you think he should be killed?" Zhu Qizhen didn't agree, but asked Yu Qian what he thought of King Jing.
Yu Qian hesitated, "After all, this is a royal matter, and it's hard for the minister to say." ”
"If I tell you to say it, you can say it!"
"Kill according to the law!" Yu Qian was concise and to the point.
Zhu Qizhen looked at Zhu Qiyu, and Zhu Qiyu said the same.
He also made up his mind, so he asked Yu Qian about the candidate for the new Zongren Mansion Zongzheng.
The officials of the Zongren Mansion used to be noble and part-time, and they had no real power, and they couldn't even be considered officials, but since they wanted to turn the yamen into a real power organization, they naturally had to start paying attention to it.
Yu Qian said: "The minister thinks that the order of the sect should be held by a prince, so that the punishment is more appropriate for status and identity."
The people who do the work below find a courtier of the Ministry of Rites, even if there is any impact, it will not affect the blood and family relationship of the Heavenly Family. ”
"The minister thinks that King Xiang can be the new Zongren Order, supplemented by Lang Saqi, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites." Yu Qian finally finished his thoughts in the emperor's gaze.
"No! The Tian family let hundreds of officials take care of it, what is this? Where is the royal majesty? Zhu Qiyu spoke out against it.
Zhu Qizhen obviously didn't listen to his younger brother's words, and pondered Yu Qian's suggestion, "Qi Yu is the sect order, as for that Saqi, follow the words of the Qing and assist Qi Yu in managing the clan." ”
"Brother Huang!" Zhu Qiyu still wants to struggle again.
Zhu Qizhen didn't give him this opportunity and directly ordered: "Set a time as soon as possible to bring King Jing to justice!" ”
Zhu Qiyu had no choice but to leave, and after going out, he glared at the expressionless Yu Qian with an unkind look.
After King Jing's incident, King Qin didn't know if he was stimulated by something, and soon left the west.
There were many opinions in the clan about the reorganization of the Zongren Mansion by the imperial court, and they felt that this limited their freedom, and even jointly wrote a request for the restoration of the ancestral system.
Zhu Qizhen is not used to them, saying that if Grandpa Tai is alive, I am afraid that the intensity of the means will far exceed mine, you are so excited, don't you feel that you are going to break the law, so you have to oppose it?
With the result of the rebellion in front and Zhu Qizhen's unrelenting regression behind, these noises gradually disappeared.
Zhu Qizhen had a rare peaceful time, and even Tiangong was beautiful.
After a year, the wind and rain are smooth, the grain is harvested, and the tax revenue can be more than two percent more than in previous years, and Yang Shan, the head of the household department, has a straight waist wherever he goes, and the smile on his face has not disappeared.
The affairs of Yunnan have also been understood, and even if the Si family retreated to Ava, Shi Heng still did not let go of this opportunity.
At this time, most of Ava was the Burmese Propaganda Division of the Ming Dynasty, which was nominally under the control of the Ming Dynasty.
Previously, because of the natural danger and huge damage of the Jinsha River, the imperial court was forced to let go of the Si family, this time under the command of Shi Heng, the soldiers were divided into two routes, one was led by him to pursue and kill by land, and the other was directly detoured to the sea to attack, and the Si family could not escape.
After Si Lu and other members of the Si family were escorted back, they were beheaded in public at the entrance of the vegetable market, and for a while, Zhu Qizhen's reputation even caught up with Taizong Zhu Di.
In the summer of the twenty-first year of orthodoxy, the Ming Dynasty restarted its trip to the West, led by Zhu Qiyu, the king of servants, and set off with more than 10,000 ships, all of which were emitting billowing white smoke, known as steam ships in history.
In order to exercise the rights of the Zongren Order, Zhu Qizhen deliberately changed the rules of the Ming Dynasty and allowed King Xiang to live in the capital, and the world shook for a while.
At the same time, Daming also began to officially lay railways and establish new transportation lines, but because of the backwardness of technology, it is not yet possible to carry passengers.
Zhu Qizhen seems to have never been as idle as today, and since the floods in Henan, His Majesty the Emperor has rarely left the Forbidden City.
Even if you go out, you can walk around the capital, taste fresh dishes, and listen to the small songs of the land of fireworks.
At the beginning of September, the township examination of the ninth department
The ink plaque on the top of the southeast tribute courtyard of the capital hangs in the middle of the gate, and the east and west sides of the gate are built with two arches of "Ming Jing to take scholars" and "seek talents for the country".
Zhu Qizhen stood under the archway of "seeking talents for the country", and looked at the gentlemen who walked into the tribute courtyard with satisfaction.
"Childe! You're taking the exam too, huh? A familiar voice came.
Zhu Qizhen turned his head and saw that it was Dong Guo Ziyu.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, Ziyu has grown taller again! Last year's results were good, I hope you will make persistent efforts this year and strive to solve the yuan in the exam! Zhu Qizhen said with a smile.
Dongguo Ziyu scratched his head embarrassedly and said: "Thanks to my eldest brother's help, if you didn't teach me how to answer the questionnaire and compose poems, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand here today, I haven't thanked you before, I met today, please accept Xinde's worship!" Zhu Qizhen happily accepted it, "I took the table word, I'm afraid I have already apprenticed, right?" Which gentleman? ”
Hearing that it was a famous Confucian, Zhu Qizhen was even more happy and nodded again and again.
"Did the eldest brother also come to the township to try?" Dong Guo Ziyu asked again.
It's Zhu Qizhen's turn to be a little embarrassed, as a soul of later generations, it is difficult to explain his obsession with the imperial examination.
It's not easy for the world to live in peace, and he, the emperor, naturally wants to be lazy to try his level.
Dongguo Ziyu, who received Zhu Qizhen's affirmative reply, pulled Zhu Qizhen and walked towards the Gongyuan, saying as he walked that the eldest brother casually instructed him to make two moves, and he let himself be a showman.
The two of them said this, and followed the long queue of people.
The number of imperial examinations in the capital is the largest in the entire Ming Dynasty, and the reason is similar to that of later generations, with educational resources and policy inclination.
Just when the two were chatting about some new things on the street, Zhu Qizhen took the opportunity to ask the people's views on some policies of the imperial court, and the two people at first glance swaggered and did not line up to enter the tribute courtyard.
"Who are they? Why don't the people at the door care? Zhu Qizhen asked curiously.
"Chen Ying, Wang Lun!" Dongguo Ziyu looked at the two figures, one red and one blue, and gritted his teeth and said.
Seeing that Zhu Qizhen had no concept of these two names, Dongguo Ziyu explained the identities of the two, which made Zhu Qizhen raise his eyebrows again and again.
"It's really majestic!" Zhu Qizhen snorted.
Dong Guo Ziyu sighed and explained the conflicts with the two of them that day, "If the eldest brother meets them, just treat them as pigs and dogs, don't be like them!"
My family also found a celebrant at that time...... I forgot that the eldest brother has a closer relationship with the celebrant supervisor, so he shouldn't be afraid of them, but more is better than less, and it's better to provoke as little as possible! ”
"Oops, hey, take out the floating ticket! Hurry up! A servant pushed Zhu Qizhen and said.
Zhu Qizhen staggered, and Fan Zhong, who was waiting next to him, almost made a move, but was pressed down by him with a look.
A floating ticket is something like an ID card, which has the candidate's information and a simple portrait registered on it.
After Zhu Qizhen handed over the floating ticket, the official saw that Zhu Qizhen was from Gongsheng, and his face trembled and showed a smile.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
After all, if you can be a tribute, your family is either rich or powerful, and you still can't afford to offend this little servant.
