"The royal relatives and relatives should enjoy glory and wealth."

Chu Zhen was also not aggressive, and continued: "They can not only stabilize the country, but also unite with the nobles to fight against the civil officials of the imperial court, so as not to let one family dominate."

In the history books, because the clan was seized of military power by Zhu Di and could not be an official, the children of Xun Gui fell into a slump after the Tumubao Change, resulting in the Ming Emperor could only use eunuchs to control civil officials. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang repeatedly heard the names of Tumubao, Calling the Son of Heaven, and the God of War of the Ming Dynasty, but he endured it every time.

If you ask, you will definitely hold back the fire, so it's better not to ask!

"Civil officials need the clan and the nobles to compete?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised to hear this.

He had never heard of these things, and the Hanlin scholar who taught him history never mentioned them, but now Chu Zhen said it bluntly, which shocked his heart.

Li Qingzhao naturally thought of the Great Song Dynasty, and it was also the eunuch who was in charge of supervising the army.

Chu Zhen said: "To fight the world, you need military generals, and to govern the world, you need civil ministers, since ancient times, so all dynasties and dynasties must prevent civil officials from forming parties, the Tang Dynasty Niu Li Party, the Song Dynasty New and Old Party, the Donglin Party in the late Ming Dynasty, etc.

It's not terrible to form a party, it's the party struggle that is terrible, such as the Song Dynasty—"

Chu Zhen looked at Li Dacainu, "The new party is gaining power, the old party is all going to Lingnan, the old party is gaining power, and the new party is also going to Lingnan. ”

Li Qingzhao didn't know what expression to make, so he had to mention weakly: "Actually, not all of them go to Lingnan...... Su Weng is indeed still in Lingnan, and it is precisely because of the party struggle that he was demoted. ”

Chu Zhen wrote down this incident and wrote it into the time-space history later.

According to the history books he had read, when Li Qingzhao was at this age, that is, around 1100, Su Shi had already returned from Lingnan and was about to die.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought of Hu Weiyong, "How to curb officials from forming parties for personal gain?" ”

"I don't know about this, after all, I'm not an emperor, and I haven't been an official."

Chu Zhen smiled, "The only way I can think of is to make the imperial examination fair." ”

"The imperial examination is fair?!"

Li Qingzhao and Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it together.

Lin Daiyu, who was sitting on the sofa, pursed her lips and smiled, she probably knew what the imperial examination was fair.

"To put it simply, it is the division of the north and the south according to the region, which is called the north and south list."

Chu Zhen smiled at Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "This is also what happened in the thirtieth year of Hongwu, and it was the plan you came up with, when the Ming Dynasty restored the imperial examination system." ”

"How long can I live?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised on his face and interrupted him.

"It was changed in the third year."

"Third year...... You just say that I will die in the thirty-first year of Hongwu! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have a good airway.

All three laughed.

Chu Zhen said: "You put aside political affairs, and pay attention to recuperating your body at ordinary times, it will not be a problem to use the Hongwu year for fifty years." ”

It's not that Chu Zhen is talking nonsense, but Zhu Yuanzhang's physical fitness can be called against the sky.

When he was a child, he didn't have enough to eat, he worked as a beggar, and when he was young, he started fighting as a soldier, and when he won the world, he began to deal with political affairs.

That's it, Zhu Yuanzhang's harem is full of good news, and there are twenty-six sons alone.

Compared with Li Shimin's death at the age of fifty-two, you can know how fierce Emperor Hongwu was.

"Hahaha! Fifty years of Hongwu? Isn't the prince in a hurry? That's right, I can be the emperor like Li Yuan. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.

Chu Zhen smiled and drank tea, and Li Yuan was also shot while lying down.

Lin Daiyu's eyebrows were crooked, and she said with a smile: "There is also an emperor in the Dashun Dynasty. ”

"How did he become the emperor?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked casually.

"The old sage's will only says to return to politics and retire, and the rest is not mentioned."

"Old sage?"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted lightly and did not express any further opinions.

Chu Zhen continued: "The cause of the North and South List is unknown, and some people say that the southern scholars conducted a test on Emperor Hongwu with the intention of suppressing the northern scholars. ”

"Temptation?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered, did he think there were too many heads on his neck?

"It is also said that it is purely rich in the south, and the north can't pass the test."

Chu Zhen said: "The final result is that the champion and the chief examiner were killed to appease the anger of the northern scholars, and the northern scholars were admitted again that year. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "I just saw that the people admitted to the imperial examination were not of great use, so I ordered the examination to be suspended for ten years. ”

"You just became emperor ten years ago, and it's normal to be demanding."

Chu Zhen smiled and said: "It's just right, now by restoring the grace of the imperial examination, the imperial examination is directly changed, and the jinshi are admitted according to the southern, northern, and central regions, or the number of jinshi is allocated according to the population of each province, the taxes paid, and the severity of conscription. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him in shock.

The front is divided into three regions, but the back, according to the population of each province?

It seems a bit too ruthless, Jiangnan scholars have to work hard to take the test?

After all, no matter how many talents there are in the southern scholars, they only admit so many.

Chu Zhen said: "For example, Guangxi and Guangdong, with a small population and few taxes, will give a smaller number of jinshi, but they can't not be given, because they also pay taxes."

The population of the north is also not large, but the north has to defend the borders, bear heavier conscription, and give them more places.

Another example is Yungui laid in the future, although those Tusi people can't read the Four Books and Five Classics, even if they can't read, they must be assigned to the number of Jinshi to win people's hearts. ”

Chu Zhen looked at him: "The Han people in the north were too influenced by the Hu people, and Zhang Hongfan, the minister of the Yuan Dynasty who destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty, although he was a Han Chinese, he had long lost the heart of the Han people, and his allegiance was to Meng Yuan."

Therefore, the Ming Dynasty bridged the north and the south and incorporated Yunnan and Guizhou into the Chinese territory, which is a great credit that cannot be erased! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed, but soon his expression froze again: "The king of Yunnan wants to provoke the side?" ”

The king of Yunnan was canonized by Meng Yuan, the grandson of Kublai Khan, with a long list of names, and the title was King Liang.

"I checked, and it was in September of the thirteenth year of Hongwu."

"Humph!"

Zhu Yuanzhang scolded directly: "If he guards his ground according to his duty, I will not levy him, but he will not keep his points, I will send an army to pacify him!" ”

He said to Chu Zhen again: "You help me buy more things, and I will order someone to monitor him first, and see if I can find an opportunity to fight first." ”

"Although the bow and arrow armor are good, they can't compare to the cannon."

Chu Zhen smiled, "I'll find a time to collect some cannons suitable for Daming manufacturing, and collect them into a book to give to you, see if Daming craftsmen can make them." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up, and he patted the sofa very well.

"Cannon?" Li Qingzhao thought about it carefully, the artillery and thunderbolt cannons of the Song Dynasty did not know how different they were from what Chu Langjun said.

"As for the reform of the content of the imperial examination......"

"We'll talk about this later!"

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand and stopped, "I know what you want to say, reduce Confucianism, plus arithmetic...... Wait for me to order Song Lian to write a reopening of the imperial examination, and then show it to you. ”

"Song Lian?"

Chu Zhen smiled: "Have you made all the people who carry the blame?" ”

Hu Weiyong's back was spread into the mu, and Song Lian's back was reformed in the imperial examination, both of whom were ministers who committed crimes in the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang.

When they change well, they will atone for their sins.

If it is not corrected, it is also a retribution to eliminate the anger of the public.

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and asked, "Can I use what Hu Weiyong wrote?" ”

"No, because the price of the mu should be stabilized, so that the people can convert the money and grain into silver, and your Daming treasure money policy is a mess, and it is issued in large quantities every year, so that the treasure money in the hands of the people becomes cheap."

"I... Poor. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth and said this sentence, "I can only print treasure money for officials as silver." ”

Chu Zhen laughed, he could force Emperor Hongwu to say that he was poor, it was enough to see that he was really poor.

"But the poor can't over-issue treasure money, and a whip requires a lot of silver...... If you want to implement the apportionment of the mu now, you can only choose to stabilize the value of the banknote. Or measure the fields first, let the people pay grain to resist the labor, and then change to silver. ”

"Stabilizing the value of banknotes...... Central banks you are talking about? ”

"Yes. The central bank issued the corresponding laws, and the banks under them could be controlled by the Ming court, or they could involve wealthy businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River, such as Shen Wansan. ”

"Do you still know Shen Xiu?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised, "He happens to be on the border of Yunnan now." ”

"Shen Wansan is not dead?!"

Chu Zhen was surprised.

This is also a big celebrity!

Known as the richest man in the world.

"He is over seventy, and when he assisted Zhang Shicheng to defend Suzhou, I wanted to kill him, but the queen interceded, so she was exiled to Yunnan, leaving the descendants of the Shen family still in their hometown."

Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes, "Well, since you mentioned it, I will pardon him and let him respond to Tianfu to see me!" ”

Chu Zhen only smiled, but Li Qingzhao on the side couldn't help but be envious.

Su Weng and the others are still in Lingnan, who can let the official family pardon Su Weng with a word?
