Chapter 125: Able to bend and stretch Zhu to see deeply
I have to say that this suggestion of the ministers has solved the problem in a targeted manner.
If you think the bureaucracy is redundant and redundant, wouldn't it be better to address it at the root cause?
This wave, a typical dead friend is not a dead poor man!
Especially the court bosses, their descendants can enjoy the grace, and the ascent channel is reduced, which is more beneficial to them.
As for the officials who don't have the strength to get the place of Enyin, it doesn't matter much, at least their own interests are preserved.
This time, they can be described as painstaking, but also really solved the problem.
It's just that...... It is impossible for Zhu Jianshen to agree!
According to the implementation of this method, after more than 100 years, the bureaucracy of the Ming Dynasty will be hereditarily dominated, and at that time, all kinds of intertwined relationship networks will simply be ...... Cut constantly, and the reason is messy!
It's a headache to think about.
Moreover, too little fresh blood will further increase the problem of corruption, because in most cases, with the blessing of reading the books of the sages, the new officials are relatively incorruptible.
Although it is more or less inevitable to be polluted over time, there will be at least a period of corruption.
However, all of the above is secondary!
What really makes Zhu Jianshen jealous is that the reduction of the upward channel will bring great instability to Jiangshan Sheji.
For example, even if a group of poor people are treated unfairly, there is a high probability that they will not do anything radical, and they are not able to shake the country;
But what if there are such beings as Chen Sheng and Wu Guang in this group of poor people?
I'm afraid it's going to turn the world upside down in an instant!
Without Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, it is just a group of hard-working and bitter haha, with Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, it is immediately a rebel army.
The smaller the insight, the smaller the desire; The greater the knowledge, the greater the desire!
Only by bringing these knowledgeable people to the court can the crisis be solved invisibly, but if too many people don't meet and gather together, I'm afraid that they can find something to do if they have nothing to do...... It's scary to think about.
Therefore, the gate of the upward passage of the imperial examination must not be moved.
move, then shake the country!
The great significance of the imperial examination is not only to select talents for the imperial court, but also to play a role in stabilizing the country, and even the latter is greater than the former.
It is far better to gather these capable and ambitious people in the court and make them fight each other in circles than to hide them from the people.
What you can't see is the most terrible!
Zhu Jianshen couldn't agree, and if he agreed to this suggestion, then he would definitely be a sinner of the Ming Dynasty.
"Since the Song Dynasty, the imperial examination has been held once every three years," Zhu Jianshen said, "For hundreds of years, it has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it must not be moved!" β
"Has the emperor ever thought that otherwise, he can't solve the problem fundamentally?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, even if the bureaucracy is reduced now, with the blessing of the triennial imperial examination, there will still be redundancy and confusion for several generations."
The situation has evolved to the present, and they are too lazy to avoid it, they all know that the emperor is iron-hearted, and he must give a solution.
They thought they had compromised, but the emperor was a little ...... I don't know what to do.
"Your Majesty, are the ministers inferior to those who have not yet entered the ranks?"
"Could it be that the emperor is willing to ignore the feelings of the monarch and his ministers, and also to entrap those who do not know loyalty and traitors?"
Zhu Jianshen was set up, but this time, he couldn't escape.
Therefore, he rarely became tough and refused to give an inch.
"Not bad!" Zhu Jianshen readily admitted, "I am willing to offend all Aiqing, and I can't offend the world's scholars!" β
As soon as these words came out, even the last fig leaf was torn off.
Completely torn face!
It's all like this, and the ministers are naturally not used to it, so they resign again.
In just a few days, the resignation was like snowflakes, piled up with imperial cases, and piled up into a small mountain......
The difference from last time is that there are more resignations this time, and nine out of nine officials above the fifth grade resign!
Officials below the fifth grade also resigned, and two-thirds of them resigned.
In the Jingshi of the political center of the Ming Dynasty, the operation of government decrees almost stopped, and the bureaucratic system was almost paralyzed.
This time, the crisis is not in sight, but it is very powerful.
This time, the ministers broke the rules, but they had no choice, and it was difficult for them to accept the emperor's behavior.
Zhu Jianshen miscalculated, he still underestimated this group of people......
When it is time to be soft, our Chenghua Emperor has never been strong, and the main one can bend and stretch.
He made an edict against himself, saying that he had acted inappropriately and that he had not thought about it.
Subsequently, he rejected all resignations and summoned the six ministers separately...... Give a reward.
It took another three or five days for the suspended government to return to normal.
Zhu Jianshen didn't punish anyone, and he was right as if nothing had happened.
Seeing this, the ministers did not gain an inch anymore, and returned to their former appearance, still respecting the emperor, and above the court, they were 'wise emperors'.
It's like...... It was a dream before.
The ministers were satisfied.
But Zhu Jianshen was angry, and he would not give up.
This revenge, he will have to take revenge sooner or later, he can't wait ten years, he will have to take revenge within three years!
On this day, he crossed the ministry and the cabinet and appointed a local scholar in Beijing to make the imperial history.
In this regard, no one raised any objections from the ministers, after all, they had just reconciled, and this was really nothing, the emperor had made an edict, and they were not good at not allowing sand in their eyes, so they simply turned a blind eye.
But they didn't expect that it was this negligence that brought them an extremely heavy blow......

"It's on fire!"
Li Qing looked at the raging fire, his eyes flashed with excitement, this time, he succeeded in sneaking up again.
He didn't dare to stay, the shouts of killing over there shook the sky, and the fierce battle had been raging for a long time, he had laid an ambush in advance, and took advantage of the enemy's armed forces to be attracted to all of them, so that he could succeed.
When the goal was achieved, Li Qing immediately led more than 1,000 subordinates to reinforcements.
"Click......
The moonlight was bright, the war horse was galloping past, and the dust in the sky was faintly visible, Li Qing's eyes were scorching, and he was murderous,
The warriors behind him are also full of fighting spirit, and they are invincible......
If this battle is won, it can really be a good way to satisfy the cravings, the tribe with a population of nearly 150,000 is also a land of abundant water and grass, with many cattle, sheep and livestock, and it is fat...... It's drooling just thinking about it.
After half a year of attrition, the current armament of this tribe is roughly twenty-one and two.
Li Qing's 15,000 army is a gap compared to it, but it is not too big, plus they are sneak attacks and arson, and they completely make up for the difference in numbers by seizing the opportunity.
This tribe could never have imagined that Li Qing's army would dare to fight back against them, and that it could gather so many armed forces and be so strong......
This was completely beyond their estimates.
By the time they found out, the distance between the two sides was less than thirty miles, and there was no time to make all preparations.
Rush to face the battle, and you will suffer a big loss when you come up.
At this moment, half of the sky was red in the rear of Goodbye, and they were even more panicked, but at this moment, Li Qing's army stabbed out and went straight to their flank.
In an instant, this thousand-man cavalry swept with an incomparable momentum, stirring them up on their backs.
In Zhu Di's words, the weakest point of the cavalry is the flank, once it is charged, the combat power will take a sharp turn.
Li Qing took the lead, although it was the year of 'Huajia', but the perversion of the force value was like a killing god descending, killing the enemy army was cold, and the friendly army was boiling......
The war does not stop, and the fighting does not stop......
Li Qing profoundly understands the truth of one go, then declining, and three exhaustions, especially when the hard power is inferior to the other party, it is not impossible to give up halfway.
Before the battle, he gave a death order and fought until the opponent voluntarily gave up the battle.
This time, Li Qing tried his best, no matter what, he had to fight to the death.
The battle started on the fourth watch day and lasted until dawn, the horses couldn't run anymore and were still fighting, and Li Qing's fighting style also changed from charging on a horse to cutting people on a horse......
When the red sun rose, Li Qing wiped the blood on his face, and saw that the other party was no longer effective in terms of lethality, so he immediately shouted in a deep voice: "Surrender and don't kill, we only need cattle and sheep!" β
"Surrender and don't kill, we only need cattle and sheep!"
"Surrender without killing ......!"
The rolling sound gradually synchronized, sweeping away the bloodthirsty aura, which was really terrifying.
From beginning to end, the opponent did not form an effective killing array, and the battlefield was always in a state of semi-division, and the losses were too heavy.
In just two and a half hours, a third of the casualties were lost, and the physical strength had reached the limit, and most of the tent was set on fire, which made him even more disheartened.
Under the loud scolding, someone soon lost his weapon.
"Dangchang~"
Someone started, and soon someone followed, and it didn't take long for a trend to form.
Li Qing's army also lost his physical strength, but under the temptation of the spoils of war, he was still full of spirit, so that no one in this tribe dared to fight.
β¦
In this battle, Li Qing harvested 3,000 horses, more than 100 camels, more than 1,000 cattle, and more than 8,000 sheep.
However, He Zhong was a little dissatisfied.
"Master Hou, we're only asking for less than half of it, isn't it too merciful?"
Li Qing snorted: "It's okay, I really don't leave a little way for people to live, if we die, we will definitely not be able to please us." β
"Alas... In this way, there is a long way to go! He Zhong sighed for a long time.
Li Qing said with a smile: "It's soon, our mission is almost accomplished." β
"Huh?" He Zhong was surprised, "Could it be that the Hou Ye secretly invited reinforcements again?" β
"How can there be so many reinforcements to ask for?" Li Qing rolled his eyes, "If that's the case, it's better to lead the three battalions directly." β
He Zhong smiled awkwardly: "But...... The other side suffered about 7,000 casualties, most of whom were wounded, and they couldn't recover their combat strength! βΞΠΈΠͺ.ΕΞοΌ§
"You can't just look at the surface, attrition is only a small aspect." Li Qingdao said, "What really seriously injured them were those tents, these cattle and sheep, and ...... The belief that we will win. β
He smiled and said, "Now, they don't have the confidence to beat us, let alone trouble us, and they will fear us." β
Li Qing said confidently: "You can watch it...... It won't be long before we reach our strategic goals. β
