Chapter 274: Knighthood (I)
The next day, the Temple of Heaven;
On the royal platform, Chu Hao was wearing a crown, wearing a crown robe, sitting on a dragon chair, with a dragon eucalyptus in front of him, and Cao Zhengchun wearing a red and black python robe behind him and pursing his lips.
Standing on the left side of the imperial platform is the eunuch of the master of ceremonies and the seal of the fourth grade, and the governor of the twenty-four ya, and the eunuch Hai Dafu, who is also the governor of the Qincha Dongchang official school, and standing on the right is the commander of the Jinyi guard of the third grade, Zuo Zixiong.
Below, Wenchen's face was full of heroism, and the military generals were in high spirits.
The first column of Wenchen is led by Zhuge Liang, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, followed by Zhuge Wolong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Lu Miaozi, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, Fu Tianqiu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Huang Shang, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials.
The grades of these five Shangshu are all the second grade, and standing behind the five of them is Lu Ban, the director of the Ministry of Industry Yu Hengqing Officials.
The first column of generals is led by Han Xin, the left governor of the Chinese army, followed by Qin Shubao, the former governor of the left army of Zhengyipin, and then Gongsun Zhan, the general of Zhaowu of Zhengerpin, Shangguan Haitang, the commander of the Demon Division of Zhengsanpin, Li Guang, the governor of Sanpin, and Cheng Zhijie, the fifth army of Zhengwupin.
In another column, stood the Ming King Zhu and the East China Sea Dragon King Ao Guang.
Behind them, standing were the generals of some of the army, and the deputies of some of the officials.
Chen Qingzhi of the White Robe Army, Zhao Yun, Yan Gang, and Tian Yu of the White Horse Yicong, Wang Meng, Zhuge Liang's deputy, Wei Qing, Zhuge Wolong's deputy, and Fang Xuanling, Huang Shang's deputy.
Outside the hall stood the forbidden palace guard eunuch Wang Sunflower.
Except for Lu Bu and Aobai in Shaoxing, Yu Shi Tianwen, the inspector who inspected the counties of Yingtianfu, Wu Qi, who came to Yingtianfu with his military guards to protect the people from all over Yangzhou, and Dian Wei, who led 800 tiger and leopard cavalry to guard Quanzhou, these people are all the people who are currently registered in the official directory of Daqian.
Only they can enjoy the auspiciousness brought to them by the Daqian Dynasty.
The life expectancy of first-grade officials is increased by 10 years, the life expectancy of second-grade officials is increased by 9 years, the life expectancy of third-grade officials is increased by 8 years, the life expectancy of fourth-grade officials is increased by 7 years, the life expectancy of fifth-grade officials is increased by 6 years, the life expectancy of 6-grade officials is increased by 5 years, the longevity of 7-grade officials is increased by 4 years, the longevity of 8-grade officials is increased by 3 years, the longevity of 9-grade officials is increased by 2 years, and the longevity of those who are not entered the grade is increased by 1 year.
In addition, they can be exempted from ten calamities for cultivation every month, and enjoy ten epiphany, and their cultivation speed will be doubled.
The rest of the officials, such as the county commanders, county officials, and soap officials of various prefectures and counties, will not register their names on the official directory until Tian Wen returns.
At this moment, Chu Hao looked at the officials below with emotion.
Now it has been four months since he woke up weakly in the Qianqing Hall that day, and it has come to the beginning of October.
After four months of hard work, most of the people who were able to stand on the Fengtian Temple were famous ministers through the ages.
"But that's not enough."
When he was secretly thinking in his heart, Ming Wang Zhu ignored it and looked at Chu Hao on the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military and dragon chairs quietly.
In the past few days in Beijing, he has already inquired about Chu Hao's deeds.
Chu Hao was born as a prince, but because the national teacher Pudu Cihang opened his mouth and said that "the two dragons must not meet, otherwise the young dragons will die", and he was raised by the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace.
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty did not know this hexagram, and mistakenly thought that the first emperor had the intention of abolishing the prince of Chu Hao, so he never got close to him.
And when he was ten years old, the most trusted eunuch beside Chu Hao poisoned his food, and if it weren't for Pudu Cihang's timely arrival, he would have died (hong).
After that, he was confined to the Buddhist hall by Pudu Cihang, and when the first emperor died of illness, he walked out of the Buddhist hall, but he did not even see the body of the first emperor, and he ascended the throne under the coercion of Pudu Cihang.
And on the second day of his ascension to the throne, he was trapped in the Qianqing Palace by demons day and night, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces were also killed by Pudu Cihang in the following time.
Subsequently, Chu Hao took advantage of the opportunity of Pudu Cihang to leave Beijing, relying on a eunuch and a military general imprisoned in the prison to forcibly kill him out of the palace.
He went to Jinhua County to invite the current military secretary Zhuge Wolong from the county prison, and worshiped Zhuge Wolong's cousin Zhuge Liang as the household secretary, and then made the thunder means to kill the national teacher, and formed an alliance with the East China Sea, so that he could sit on the throne.
Put himself in his shoes, Zhu ignored and didn't think that he would do better than Chu Hao.
Therefore, although he had not met Chu Hao before, he was extremely jealous of this young monarch who could turn over in a desperate situation.
He had also heard about the deeds of these civil servants and military generals, and he knew very well in his heart that as long as he gave Daqian a period of time, this weakest country among the countries in the world would become the one that all countries feared the most.
When he thought of this, Chu Hao suddenly spoke: "At present, except for Lu Bu and Aobai in Shaoxing, the inspector Yu Shi Tianwen who inspected the counties of Yingtianfu, Wu Qi who came to Yingtianfu with military guards to protect the people from all over Yangzhou, and led the eight hundred tiger and leopard cavalry to guard Dian Wei in Quanzhou, the civil and military forces of our dynasty have already stood on the Fengtian Palace. ”
"Now I have both internal and external troubles, but I am not worried at all!"
"Because you are all there in the court!"
"As long as I see you, my heart will be extremely relieved, because as long as you are here, Daqian will overcome obstacles and become stronger and stronger!"
Under the royal stage, the courtiers of the civil and military classes all listened to Chu Hao's voice with excitement.
Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Wolong, who had assisted Zuo Chuhao from the beginning, were all smiling and gratified.
Shangguan Haitang looked like he had his head down, but from time to time he would sneak a glance at Chu Hao with his eyes shining.
At this time, Chu Hao gave Hai Dafu a look, and Hai Dafu bowed and left.
Chu Hao continued: "These days, in addition to looking for a way to solve the tribulation of the five turbidities, I also invited an old man to serve as my imperial master, and the official is the best of the best. ”
When the ministers heard this, their faces were very calm, after all, Chu Hao had already gone to Jinhua County to invite a master to enter the court as an official.
Chu Hao said: "This person's name is Xu Fu, and he also has the pseudonym Emperor Shitian, who was the envoy of the Dali Tai Hospital 1,700 years ago, and then spent 500 years to join the different sects of Dali, and he has the best martial arts in the world. ”
In addition to governing the country, the army, the art of war, the rule of officials, the people's livelihood, government decrees, canons, and laws, I am more proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, yin and yang five elements, Qimen Dunjia, and is good at looking at qi, astrology, business, institutions, and construction, all kinds of academics are all excellent."
When the civil and military ministers heard this, they all looked shocked.
They were not surprised that Xu Fu could live for 1,700 years, they were surprised that Xu Fu would set an unprecedented example and use the boundless longevity to study so much scholarship and knowledge.
Chu Hao continued: "The reason why I invited Xu Fu to be the Grand Master is not only because he himself is a scholar of heaven and man, but also because he has spent hundreds of years cultivating countless talents, and he hopes to subvert the Great Separation one day. ”
"And with the fall of Dali, these talents will follow him and join Daqian!"
When the civil and military ministers heard this, their eyes lit up even more.
Doesn't this mean that there will be a lot of talented people soon?
Chu Hao, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at the expressions of the ministers below and said: "In order to express to this person the thirst for talent, I have set an unprecedented example and given real power to the position of the Grand Master!" ”
"When he joins the Great Cadre, he will have the power to take charge of the state governance, re-establish the canonical system, purge the rule of officials, and rectify the people's livelihood, but his term of office will only be three years."
"In the past three years, I hope that the rank can be facilitated, and I will cooperate with the Taishi to make the great cadres stronger!"
When he finished saying this, the civil and military ministers all bowed down and said in unison: "The ministers obey the holy order!" ”
Chu Hao glanced sideways at Zuo Zixiong and nodded slightly.
Zuo Zixiong, who had already received the order, immediately took a step forward and said: "The court discussion begins, and those who have this book will play." ”
The next moment when his words fell, Zhuge Liang took out the recital from his sleeve, stepped forward and bowed: "Minister, Zhuge Liang, the head of the household, has a book." ”
Zuo Zixiong walked down from the side of the imperial platform, took the fold in Zhuge Liang's hand, and returned to the imperial platform with it and handed it to Chu Hao.
When Chu Hao opened the recital, Zhuge Liang also opened his mouth and said: "There are three ministers, one of them, a total of 1.036 million people participated in the 28 major examinations of five departments, including the household department, the military department, the engineering department, the criminal department, and the ritual department. ”
"The scientific examination items are carpentry, stonemasonry, miner, potter, silkworm worker, fisherman, kitchen worker, salt worker, civil engineering and construction, blacksmith, casting and sealing, winemaking, textile, law, punishment, martial arts, military affairs, arithmetic, business, farmland, medical care, transportation, aquatic products, breeding, rituals, sacrifices, education, and other 27 subjects."
"Because there are two examinations in one subject, one for the Ministry of Engineering and the other for the Ministry of Households, there are a total of 28 subjects."
"A total of 480 people were selected in these 28 subjects, and the first four were selected, and the rest were slightly inferior to these four in talent."
"The head of the military affairs of the Ministry of War is Wang Shouren, 17 years old, and his father Wang Hua is the champion of Longjing for 16 years, and the official is still the secretary of the Ministry of Officials."
"The leader of the martial arts of the military department is Li Siye, 40 years old, and he was previously the minister of Dali, and he created the Modao team to guard the Dali frontier, and his realm is the martial arts innate realm."
"The head of the household medical project is Zhang Zhongjing, 35 years old, and his family is a big family of doctors in Yuzhou, and his family is in the middle of the road."
"The head of the law of the Criminal Department is Du Ruhui, 29 years old, and his father Du Zha, who is the county order of Jurong County."
After Zhuge Liang said this, his voice sank, and he said: "Chenzhi, second, I am in forty prefectures and sixty-eight counties, with a total population of 16,611,046 people, according to the statistics of Ao Geng, the Ministry of Industry and the Qing Officials Shilangzhong Ao Geng, in the five turbidity catastrophes, a total of 74,965 people died in 68 counties, and the children left behind, a total of 1,642 people under the age of five, a total of 876 people under the age of 5, a total of 127 people under the age of 10, and a total of 127 people under the age of 15. ”
"The old men who were left behind were eighty-five thousand four hundred and fifty-five over sixty years old, over sixty years old, under seventy years old, one thousand and thirty-two, above seventy years old, under eighty years old, twenty-four people."
"Your Majesty, and your colleagues, how should these people be handled?"
After hearing this, Chu Hao looked at the civil and military ministers and asked, "Do you have a solution?" ”
After Chu Hao asked this sentence, Huang Shang, the secretary of the ministry, immediately said to his disciple Fang Xuanling: "If you don't play at this time, when will you stay?" ”
Several Shangshu had already learned about this matter and discussed it together.
Fang Xuanling, who was standing at the back of the crowd, immediately took a deep breath after receiving the transmission from Huang Shang, stepped out from behind the crowd, came to the front of the crowd, bowed down and bowed: "The grass people are brave, and they have a plan in their stomachs." ”
After Huang Sheng finished speaking, he immediately stood up and reprimanded: "You have no official or position, how can there be a place for you to speak in the Fengtian Palace?" ”
After speaking, he hurriedly bowed to Chu Hao and said, "The minister is afraid, this is a disciple of the minister, and it is the minister's negligence in discipline that makes him so bold." ”
Cheng Zhijie, who was standing in the group of generals, almost couldn't hold back his laughter when he saw this, he could see at a glance that Huang Sheng was trying to support his disciple on the throne.
Qin Shubao on the side suddenly glared at him, causing him to quickly cover his mouth.
Chu Hao, who was sitting on the dragon chair, naturally knew the reason for the current scene, and while laughing in his heart, he said: "Since it is a court discussion, anyone who enters the court, regardless of grade, can speak and play." ”
Huang Sheng bowed and said, "Your Majesty." ”
Let's go back to the columns.
Chu Hao looked at Fang Xuanling and asked pretending not to know, "Who is your surname, and what is your best plan?" ”
Fang Xuanling bowed and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Caomin Fang Xuanling, great-grandfather Fang Ji, was the general of Zhenyuan, and then accompanied the Taizu to the Qianling, and his grandfather Fang Xiong was the county of Liuhe County." ”
Chu Hao nodded slowly, and showed a look of 'sudden realization', "It turns out that after being loyal and good, if you have any good plans, you might as well say it, remember that you have no character and no position, no matter what you say, I will forgive you for your innocence." ”
"Grass Folk Shane."
Fang Xuanling bowed down, and then said: "The grass people dare to ask Lord Zhuge that I have a lot of silver in the country?" ”
Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, subconsciously glanced at Chu Hao, and after seeing him nodding slightly, he spoke: "The national treasury of silver is 93,351,200 taels, and another 4 billion taels of gold, and 40 billion taels of silver have not been put into the warehouse because of the huge amount." ”
Fang Xuanling originally thought that it would be enough for Daqian to have a few million taels of silver in the treasury, but he never thought that Zhuge Liang's words would scare him into a shock.
Not only him, but also the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were dumbfounded under this sentence.
"His mother!"
Cheng Zhijie was even more stunned and scolded a sentence.
After Fang Xuanling took a deep breath, he bowed down to Chu Hao, and said: "The grass people dare to suggest that the household department open another department, called the Yang Ji Division, and all counties are due to the establishment of the yamen, all the old people who are over sixty years old, or old and sick, lonely and poor, or have no children under their knees, or have no one to support them, are supported by the imperial court, in addition to being exempted from forced labor, all medical needs are exempted, and the local soap officials are sent to send melons, fruits, vegetables and flesh at four o'clock, so that they will be buried eventually." ”
"If one of his children is serving a sentence for a crime, he or she shall be sent home to support his parents, and shall continue to serve his sentence after his death, and the sentence may be appropriately reduced or reduced according to his attitude during the period of supporting his parents."
"Another inspection department has been set up, and from time to time it will go to various counties to inspect whether local officials and soap officials have embezzled or bullied the elderly."
Huang Sheng nodded slowly when he heard this.
The rest of the civil and military officials pondered in their hearts whether the method he said was feasible.
