Twenty-four years of the Ming Dynasty has been.

Since the first examination of the fourth year of Hongwu, the imperial court took Wu Bozong of Jinxi County, Jiangxi Province as the champion.

So far, five courses have been opened.

The most recent subject is last year, and the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu has just ended.

The champion is Guichi County, the capital of Chizhou, Huangguan, also called Xu Guan.

After the title of the gold pen was tested at the annual meeting, Huang Guan was awarded the post of Hanlin Revision of the Hanlin Academy.

It's just that the end of this champion was very bad, during the Battle of Jingyan, King Yan invaded Yingtian City, Huang Guan, who recruited troops outside, ordered the officers and soldiers to drive the boat to Rakshasa Rock, Huang Guan wore court clothes to the east to say goodbye, and died in the turbulent place of the river.

But in general, the future fate of this champion has been quietly rewritten.

"The court issued an order to open Enke and take the world's talents."

Zhu Yunxi's voice echoed in front of Xihuamen, with a hint of expectation and a dark belly in his eyes.

This is a very anachronistic and well-behaved proposal.

In addition to the fourth year of Hongwu and the fifth year of Hongwu, the imperial court was newly built, and talents from all over the world were urgently needed to enter the court, and Enke was opened for two consecutive years.

The third Enke of the Ming Dynasty was delayed until the eighteenth year of Hongwu before it started again. Since then, the imperial court has opened an enko every three years.

Normally, the next subject would be in the 27th year of Hongwu.

It is a little unusual and intriguing to bring it up at this time, especially in the current situation in the court.

Prince Zhu Biao glanced back at the old man.

I felt that this kid was right to come back, although he was a little reckless, because coming back in person would provoke the already angry courtiers in the court, but the method was really good.

Kaienko.

This is the biggest thing in the country, in addition to conquering the enemy country. From the issuance of the will, to the golden autumn test, the emperor's imperial pen materials, the whole world will revolve around this matter.

At that time, everyone's eyes will also be turned to this matter.

The people will discuss where this year's Tanhualang will come from and how handsome he will be.

The meritorious general's meeting began to prepare early, waiting for the list of the top three to come out, so as to find a fast son-in-law for his family.

The same is true for civil officials, hoping that their own clansmen, or their disciples, will be able to ascend to the court with them in the near future.

An event with a high degree of discussion and interest in social topics can always cover up most of the problems temporarily.

The corners of Zhu Biao's mouth raised and smiled silently.

Suddenly, I felt that my son had traveled thousands of miles this time, and he had worked hard to come back from Zhejiang Road, not to mention the mud, and he had been kicked by the old man in vain, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneven and distressed in his heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted twice, and glanced at his boss with a somewhat unkind gaze.

"Don't look at us, he is your son and our good grandson."

The old man said without cause or effect.

The prince turned his head and looked at his son, who was becoming more and more stable and capable, with a smile on his face.

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished scolding the prince, he looked at his grandson: "Now in February, the Ming Dynasty has issued a will, and it will take March to announce the whole world." The small examination, the township examination, the general examination, and the palace examination are the first examination in March, and it will also be in this winter. ”

Time is tight.

Zhu Yunxi nodded, according to normal speaking, in the first year, the small test and the township test were added to the show.

The successful candidates will participate in the township test in the coming year and be lifted.

Three years into Beijing to participate in the examination presided over by the Ministry of Rites, the winner will step into the ranks of the Jinshi of the national dynasty, with the qualification to enter the court as an official, and then will participate in the palace examination, the emperor personally assessed the ranking, the top three in the imperial examination.

Fortunately, today's Ming Dynasty is experienced.

Hongwu four years and Hongwu five years, two consecutive years of imperial examinations.

The imperial court has to take materials and select the world to enter the court as officials, and those people will always fight desperately no matter what difficulties and compactness they face.

Even those children in their seventies and eighties.

Zhu Yunxi crossed his legs, feeling that he probably wouldn't see those seventy or eighty children at the entrance examination and the palace examination held in Beijing this year, so he smiled and spoke.

"In March, the world knows, small exams in various places, and township examinations are organized in all provinces, and the rest of the day is over, and the list is out in ten years. The talents went to the provincial capital to participate in the township examination, and this grandson estimated that it would be over in May. ”

The small examination is organized by each prefecture and county, and the county school hosts it, so it is not a rare thing to take a show. Zhudao Xiucai rushed to the provincial capital to participate in the township test, which was not time-consuming. Two months is enough time to conclude the township examinations in various places.

Zhu Yunxi said again: "In the township examination, people in the new imperial examination go to Beijing to participate in the examination, and the farthest estimate will be three or five months. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang kept smiling, looking at the good grandson in front of him talking about these things, and finally spoke: "This winter's palace test, the world will be won in the wind and snow." ”

Zhu Yunxi smiled innocently and said flatteringly: "In the past, Cao Mengde and Liu Xuande cooked wine and talked about heroes, and now there is a grandfather who has learned talents in the snow, and it will be another beautiful conversation in the future." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled helplessly, raised his arm and nodded at Zhu Yunxi: "You think it's beautiful, I'm afraid some people won't feel like that." ”

These words are the things that have been set for this year's Kaienko.

The conversation shifted elsewhere.

Zhu Yunxi put away his smile: "Grandpa, Zhejiang Dao tax reform is imperative!" If these are related to the society of the world and the system of the Ming Dynasty, can not be determined at this time, do my descendants of the Ming Dynasty really have the courage to make changes? ”

That damn ancestor made the law!

Zhu Yunxi felt that if it weren't for the fact that this time was still the beginning of the country, no one would be able to say anything about the ancestors. If someone dares to say this at night, he will definitely let the other party know how powerful his ancestors are.

A group of incompetent juniors, unable to make the country rich and strong, for their own selfish interests, pulled out their ancestors who had been dead for an unknown number of years.

Do your ancestors know what you're doing?

If you knew, your ancestors would have to crawl out of the mausoleum and look at your heads!

Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it seriously, looking back at the past dynasties, especially the former Song Dynasty, the reform again and again, and the failure again and again.

He shook his head: "What do you think. ”

Zhu Yunxi replied: "The root of the world's taxes comes from the fields, not from the emptiness. Proletarian people, where will the harvest be? The acres of land in the country and the dynasty are there, there are so many, the country and the dynasty have an enke every three years, and the world is given preferential treatment, and the court and the central government are constantly rewarding, and over time, the acres of fields that can pay taxes will only become less and less. The imperial court, one day even the food and salary of those soldiers guarding the frontier will not be able to come up! ”

"Now Sun Er is only in Zhejiang Province to promote the integration of the apportionment into the mu of the gentry, and impose heavy taxes on the merchants, which can attract them to oppose it so much. In the future, what courage and ability do the Ming emperors have to make changes? ”

No!

Not a single one!

Even the so-called whip method of Zhang Juzheng is just a matter of mending and tinkering, so that the ship of Daming has moved forward for decades.

Zhu Biao sighed, originally thinking that he could teach his son more over the years, but now he suddenly felt that he probably had nothing left to teach.

Zhu Yunxi continued under the flickering eyes of the old man: "Today, when my grandson returned to Beijing and entered the city, he did not go back to the palace directly, but went to the human tooth market on the side of Qingliang Mountain. I, the people of the Ming Dynasty, are like the slaves, who sell their heads with labels. If the imperial court does not make changes in this matter, I am afraid that in the future, the world will see the sale of bids and heads, and the sale of wives and children. ”

This is a very heavy statement, especially to a founding emperor.

Zhu Yuanzhang's face changed slightly, and he glanced at Sun Gou'er on the side.

Sun Gou'er understood and immediately trotted to a forbidden army guard commander not far away.

Then, the commander of the forbidden army led a group of people to the gate of Xi'an.

Zhu Yunxi just glanced at it, and knew that the old man wanted these people to go to the tooth market.

He continued: "Although my grandson is young and ignorant and has not been in charge of the country for a long time, he has also seen it clearly. The desires of the world, especially those who hold authority and privilege in their hands. They will not be grateful for kindness, but will only want to possess more benefits because of greed and uncontrol. ”

"This time, my grandson said that this tax reform is imperative. Zhejiang Road will be successful, if the grandfather nods that day, the grandson is willing to charge forward for this and continue to promote it to the world! ”

"What they want is the benefit of the family. The grandson has to think about our family, for the sake of our family's reputation for future generations, and for the sake of the people of the world. ”

"Now they are dissatisfied, and the grandson has no choice but to come back, as long as he asks Grandpa to open Enke, as long as he divides them and makes them have internal chaos. Only then did the grandson have time, so he asked Tang Li and Xia Yuanji to get things done in Zhejiang. ”

This is the first time that Zhu Yunxi has stated so solemnly in front of the old man in the matter of Daming Sheji.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded affirmatively: "For the people of the world!" As long as we're not dead, it's not your kid's turn to charge ahead! ”

This was his only request.

has the self-confidence and majesty of being the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and also the care of his grandson.

Zhu Yunxi smiled and thought: "If Enke is opened, the mouths of the world's scholars will be closed, and what my family hasn't done yet is far less important than whether they can take the test now." And the candidates for the main examination can also let them fight by themselves in the court, so that grandpa can clear your ears for a few days. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled helplessly again at Zhu Yunxi, and looked at the prince on the side: "Let's just say, our good grandson has grown up!" Get things done, become more stable and decent! ”

Zhu Biao pursed his lips, unwilling to look at the old man who looked like this.

In the front, you scolded and said that this kid was unreliable, and you kicked him in the front, and now you said this to yourself. Does it mean that we did all the things ahead?

Zhu Yuanzhang was bored, glared and scolded in a low voice: "Shaft." ”

Turning his head to look at Zhu Yunxi again, there was one more school exam: "Enke finished this winter, at that time, the summer grain and autumn grain of Zhejiang Dao were put into storage, and the commercial tax was counted. When everything is said and done, how are you going to deal with the rest of the story? ”

"Then let them keep fighting on their own!"

Zhu Yunxi replied categorically.
