At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Yangzhou was deserted and poor, with only eighteen living trees, in order to re-establish Yangzhou, the imperial court invested a lot of manpower and material resources, hoping that Yangzhou could become the pillar of the Ming economy!"

"But the prosperity of Yangzhou should not be built on the hardships of the people, and Yangzhou is not a place outside the law, nor is it a refuge for some lawless fanatics."

Zhu Houzhao rebuked the ministers: "Yangzhou thin horses, madness, how many sins and filths are contained in it, I can't count them, as a minister of the court, claiming to be the people asking for their lives, don't you feel ashamed?"

When the ministers heard this, they all blushed and were ashamed, and they all knew the doorway of Yangzhou Thin Horse, but when they went, they were extremely happy, and now they think about it, and they feel extremely ashamed in their hearts.

"Banning Yangzhou Thin Horses and giving the people of the world a fair way is a great good act, and the old minister is willing to support Your Majesty."

Fei Hong, who is highly respected and has qualifications comparable to Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang, said loudly.

Wang Yangming, Zhang Mao, and Fei Hong have all spoken, and the others naturally have no opinions, even if they have opinions, they don't dare to say it.

Zhu Houzhao, who had just destroyed the civilian-official clique, was at the peak of his power, and who would dare to contradict him at such a time.

"That's it!"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes were full of doubt, the ministers agreed, Yangzhou thin horses should be banned, the ministers did not agree, Yangzhou thin horses should be banned.

This matter is non-negotiable, and the reason why it was brought up is only a symbolic notice.

If he could, he would even want to ban the brothel of the Qinglou, but in this era, it is impossible to completely ban the brothel of the Qinglou.

Today, all the brothels in the capital are banned, and tomorrow they will be able to make eight alleys, and the capital is still like this, so there is no need to mention other places!

From the moment Qi Huan Gong built the Qinglou brothel, it was destined to be a big trouble, because the Qinglou brothel met the needs of countless men in the world.

Unless he can castrate all the men in the world as eunuchs, the brothel will always exist, which is nothing more than a change of business mode, from light to dark, and the symptoms are not cured.

"Your Majesty, the imperial court has just experienced a great turmoil, in order to appease the people of the world, the minister implores Your Majesty to hold an Enke in advance and open a branch to calm the turmoil after the turmoil."

The new secretary of the ministry, Shangshu Liang Chu, proposed.

After Zhu Houzhao's several major purges, the alternate officials of the Hanlin Academy are about to run out, and the opening of the department can not only appease people's hearts, but also select suitable talents to fill the Hanlin Academy, so as not to find an official replacement when the official position is vacant next time.

"Quasi-play!"

Zhu Houzhao said softly: "The imperial court is the first to be fair, Aiqing has always acted seriously and fairly, so I will hand over the matter of Enke to Aiqing, hoping that Aiqing can select a good talent for me!"

"Liang Chu, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, is the main examiner, Fei Hong, a scholar of Wuyingdian University, and Wang Wei, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion University, are the deputy examiners, and they have full authority to handle the Enke big exam!"

"Obey, sir."

Liang Chu, Fei Hong, and Wang Wei kowtowed to thank him, and they all smiled bitterly in their hearts, everyone was an old fox who had accumulated years, how could they not hear the sound of Zhu Houzhao's words.

The first thing is justice.

What is fair, this is a very ambiguous concept.

The literary style of the Ming Dynasty is at its peak, flourishing in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many talented people, in comparison, the students in the north are much weaker, and after the imperial examination, the students in the south must be the majority of students in the south of the Yangtze River, and the students in the north are few.

Since ancient times, the literati were light, even if the northern students were not as knowledgeable as the southern students, they would definitely think that the examiner was biased and deliberately cheated, this situation was especially obvious in the early Ming Dynasty, and even a vigorous north-south list appeared.

Therefore, there has always been an unwritten rule in the Ming Dynasty, the imperial examination, regardless of whether the southern students really outweigh the northern students in terms of learning, the final number of admitted students must be balanced between the north and the south, so as to save a big mess.

Zhu Houzhao deliberately reminded Fei Hong that he should be "fair" in the imperial examination, which is to let Fei Hong not forget this old rule.

With the fall of the civilian clique and the almost total annihilation of officials from Jiangnan, and the occupation of most of the important positions in the court by officials from the north, Fei Hong is likely to vigorously promote Jiangnan students to maintain the balance between the north and the south.

His idea is not unreasonable, after all, the power of northern students is too large, and it is not beneficial to the imperial court, but Zhu Houzhao does not see it that way, the competitiveness of northern students is not as good as that of southern students, even if most of the current court officials are from northern students.

Deliberately pulling the southern students will only make the southern students rise rapidly and become behemoths like the civil official group again, which Zhu Houzhao does not want to see.

Therefore, it is better to maintain the status quo, and the north and south will be balanced, so that the speed of the rise of southern students will be under his complete control.

"That's the end of today's court discussion, retreat!"

After disposing of the civilian official group, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies reorganized the military department, banned Yangzhou Thin Horse, and held the Enke test in advance, what should be done has been done, what should be announced has been announced, and the court meeting should be over!

......

"Emperor, what should be done with that one?"

In the leopard room, Zhu Houzhao, who had completed the review of the official who had submitted Wang Yangming, sat on the Taishi chair and drank tea and rested comfortably, and Liu Jin leaned over and asked cautiously.

The one in his mouth is naturally the big boss of Chunhua Building, the queen Xia Zhi who fell out with Zhu Houzhao.

Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know what to do with Xia Zhi.

From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to kill Xia Zhi, after all, when he just took office, the three giants of the cabinet controlled the government, and he was no different from a mascot, it was Xia Zhi who was always by his side, and he had a special feeling for Xia Zhi.

Even if he inadvertently killed Xia Ru and Xia Zhi fell out with him, he did not abolish Xia Zhi's position as queen, and generously let Xia Zhi leave the palace, out of sight of each other, not upset.

But now in this situation, Xia Zhi has to die, he uses Chunhualou as a game, calculates the entire civil official group, and wipes up the civil official group, this is his success, but the sequelae are also obvious.

In the entire capital, who doesn't know that the emperor was poisoned in Chunhua Tower, no matter whether Zhu Houzhao was poisoned or not, whether it was manipulated behind the scenes by the civil official group, Chunhua Tower could not continue to exist, and Xia Zhi, as the big boss of Chunhua Tower, could not escape the blame.

Poisoning the emperor is a capital offense.

It is impossible for Zhu Houzhao to stand up and explain that Chunhua Building is a bureau set up by him, in order to calculate the civil official group, which has nothing to do with Chunhua Building and Xia Zhi.

He also wants to be embarrassed, so that everyone in the world knows that the emperor is in danger to calculate his courtiers, what kind of system is it, where is the emperor's authority, and how will the people of the world view him.

Based on the consideration of the situation, Chunhua Building cannot stay, and it must die in the summer!

Zhu Houzhao closed his eyes and fell into deep thought, on the one hand, he is a woman with feelings, he is the nominal queen, and on the other hand, he is his face, if he wants to make a choice, he still needs to weigh it a little.

After a long time, he made the most reasonable and ruthless choice: "Give her a glass of wine and let her break herself!"

He still chose his own face.

Drink the donkey and give death.

End the bad relationship between him and Xia Zhi.
