Chapter 22 Who is my capable minister?
What's more, it is said that the times create heroes, and the bulls and fierce men are created by history, or they can play normally at any time, and Zhu Youxiao is not sure.
For example, Sun Chuanting, a fierce general at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but the time to create meritorious achievements is not now.
Whether the current Sun Chuanting already has that kind of bull-breaking ability is not yet known.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao wrote down Sun Chuanting's name, and he had to investigate it before deciding whether to reuse it.
In other words, he is ready to give Sun Chuanting space to display in advance, so that he can grow as soon as possible.
found Sun Chuanting, Zhu Youxiao felt that he had gained a lot and was happy in his heart.
Although there may be talents on the list, he doesn't know them, so he can only wronged them, slowly boiled up, and looked for opportunities to shine by himself.
The Manchu civil and military, who is available and who is not, who will be a loyal and capable courtier who can be reused and relied on? For Zhu Youxiao, it is the big problem to be solved at present.
As the emperor, he overwhelmed the ministers, dismissed if he disobeyed, and even killed indiscriminately like Chongzhen, but the result may not be optimistic.
According to statistics, in the seventeen years of Chongzhen's reign, he killed a total of seven governors and eleven governors, and changed 17 military secretaries and 50 cabinet scholars.
In Zhu Youxiao's view, it is right to kill those bastards who ignore the overall situation and only care about party struggles and power struggles. But indiscriminate killings can jeopardize the foundations of the regime.
Chongzhen has killed so many people, is there a character who "helps the crisis and settles down" to come up?
As it turned out, not only did it not, but the situation deteriorated day by day, and it went completely against the officials. So that when he was hanging from the coal mountain, there was only one eunuch with him.
Even if you are the supreme emperor, you can kill whoever you want, and you can do whatever you want, but it is difficult to save the Ming Dynasty from danger by yourself.
Where is the solid officer, and who is it? Where are the famous marshals and fierce generals who are loyal to the liver and courage and turn the tide, who are they?
If you want to kill, you want to change, Zhu Youxiao has already written down many names in the small notebook. But who can come up and update the weather, but it really gives him a headache.
My henchmen, the ministers I can trust with heavy responsibilities, the generals who can hope for victory, my white jade pillars, and the purple gold beams of the sea, why are there so few?
"Long live Qiyu, Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor and the supervisor of the Dongchang factory, is waiting to see you outside." The little eunuch's communication interrupted Zhu Youxiao's thoughts.
Wei Zhonggou has come to report on his work, this is related to whether the anti-corruption storm that I am brewing can blow and how many levels of wind power can reach it!
Zhu Youxiao gave an order and ordered Wei Zhonggou to come to the imperial study to do something.
………………….
Huguo Temple was built in the Yuan Dynasty and was originally called Chongguo Temple. The earliest was the former residence of Prime Minister Tuoketo.
In the fourth year of Xuande in the Ming Dynasty (1429 AD), it was renamed Dalongshan Temple, and in the eighth year of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty (1472 AD), it was named Dalongshan Temple Huguo Temple.
I don't know when it began, the temple and the temple fair were linked, in addition to the incense to worship the gods, borrowing the Buddha to travel in spring, the market trade also came into being.
There are many kinds of stalls in the temple fair, such as silk, cloth, clothing, porcelain, antiques, calligraphy and painting, fans, cooking utensils, medicine, food, flowers and trees, word and fortune telling, performing arts, juggling and so on.
There are many stalls, and there are naturally many people. "From the mountain gate, the sandwich road support shed is a stall, the department store is miscellaneous, and the visitors gather so much that they can't stop."
Don't look like a grocery market, but you can spend a lot.
There is a poem as evidence: "The two temples in the east and west are really complete, and they can spend millions of dollars a day." How many nobles are idle here, and the fragrance of clothes is still with the smoke of the imperial furnace. ”
And among the crowd who visit the temple fair, they can participate in the examination from time to time. The hospital examination and the township examination have been completed, and the general examination will be held by the Ministry of Rites after the beginning of spring, also known as spring and rites.
The dates of the examination are basically fixed, on the 9th, 12th and 15th of February.
The admission time for the HKCEE is February 27, and the list will be released on February 28. Those on the list are called "Gongshi", and the first name is "Huiyuan".
The examination will be followed by the temple examination, and the date will be set for March 15. After the palace examination, the top three and the yellow list are produced, that is, the champion, Tanhua, Bangyan, and other Jinshi rankings.
Limited to the ancient means of transportation and road conditions, students from Fujian and Guangdong in the south of the Yangtze River and even farther away often embarked on their journey just after the township examination.
Due to the proximity of the road, students in Jiangbei often only go on the road after the New Year and arrive in the capital in the middle and late part of the first month.
Of course, most of the people who will take the test will come to the capital ten days and half a month in advance, and after settling down, they will either review their homework, or visit relatives and friends, or hand over posts to visit celebrities, or come to a party to chant poems to make a sour.
There are people in the DPRK who are good officials, and the law is immutable through the ages.
Even if he fails to make the list, he is qualified to be an official. If you make friends with the powerful in the court, or the children of famous families, it is also beautiful to put a real shortage.
Of course, it is also the proper meaning of coming to the capital from other places to see the prosperity of the metropolis at the feet of the Son of Heaven, as well as the customs and customs.
Wander around the temple fair, taste the flavor snacks, and a few familiar people laugh and walk on the way to the temple fair.
"The style of this capital is really eye-opening, we are fresh everywhere, only Brother Wen is calm." Wang Juzi admired the restaurant and tea shop on the street, and said to Wen Zhenmeng.
Wen Zhenmeng shook his head with a wry smile, stretched out his finger and pointed to the white hair on his sideburns, and laughed at himself: "I have already failed ten times in the next test, and I am very familiar with this capital, so I naturally don't feel novel." ”
Another person surnamed Chen, hurriedly comforted: "Brother Wen is a scholar of scripture and history, especially good at "Spring and Autumn", and he has experience in the examination, he will definitely be able to go to high school this time." ”
"Exactly, exactly." Wang Juzi, who just said that Wen Zhenmeng was calm, knew that he was speechless, and touched Wen Zhenmeng's sore spot, and hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Wen Zhenmeng is already forty-six and psychologically mature, so naturally he will not dwell on this matter.
There was not much time, and everyone laughed and talked freely.
"I heard that this time the test will focus on strategic questions, and the Holy Lord will come up with the test questions!" Wang Juzi said uncertainly.
The surname Chen raised his head slightly, and said: "The first examination after the Holy Lord's accession to the throne is not surprising. It's just that the test questions of this policy are not easy to guess? ”
Wen Zhenmeng thought for a while and said: "The two virtuous brothers have read yesterday's imperial court report, the Holy Majesty decreed the resumption of martial arts, and used internal funds to give those who entered Beijing to participate in the martial arts a fee of silver, and allowed to stay in the post house. ”
"Hey, Wu Ju gave the pan fee silver, this is a treatment that I have never received!" Wang Juzi let out a startled sound.
Participating in the imperial examination is a long and difficult journey. It is good to say that it is close, but it is thousands of miles away, and it will take months to walk, and the cost of food, housing and transportation is expensive.
