Chapter 539 Don't go to Donglin to listen to lectures, go to Imperial Prison to listen to lectu

Chapter 539 Don't go to Donglin to listen to lectures, go to Imperial Prison to listen to lectures!

"Elected a military officer to the Sixth Division?"

When Huang Yuntai heard what Yan Shiqing said, he dropped the pen in his hand on the spot, let the pen tip pollute the resignation he was about to write, and asked a question.

Yan Shiqing nodded: "It's absolutely true, the Ministry of Officials has passed the documents, saying that these people are outspoken people in the pro-military guards, and some even directly exposed that Shangguan was paid for nothing and was transferred to the Sixth Division. It will only strengthen the rhetoric!"

"No matter how honest and outspoken you are, civil and military can't be transferred casually like this!"

Huang Yuntai replied directly, and then he couldn't help spreading his hands:

"Otherwise, what is the system?"

During the ceremony, Yang Tianmin also came over, and said with a stern expression:

"If this is really an opening for people from Xingming Academy to come to the six subjects, then it will not be officials who are in charge of the audit and inspection of the world, but after the orphans of loyal martyrs, the students of Xingming's practical education can also be in charge of the audit and inspection of the world!"

After hearing this, Huang Yuntai went back to his desk, picked up the pen, and simply scribbled out most of the content on the resignation letter:

"Then why should I resign as an official? I'm afraid that once I resign, another non-official person will enter the sixth department!"

……

In the winter of the 16th year of Wanli, Huangcun, an important town in the suburbs of Beijing.

Many canopy carriages parked outside the rows of white courtyards.

Many new canopied carriages, accompanied by many servants, came here.

And Liu Yingjie, who was still resting here and inquiring about the latest news in Beijing, was also asking Luo Wanhua, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites who came from Beijing at this time: "How is it, has the new governor of Shuntian Mansion been appointed?"

"Appointed."

"Yu Kemai, the son of Marquis Yu (Yu Dayou)."

Luo Wanhua replied.

"It turned out to be him?"

"He's not a Jinshi!"

Zhang Xueyan, who was also observing the movement here, was also shocked.

Xu Guo, who was also here, also asked at this time: "What about Governor Yingtian?"

"The commander of Jin Yiwei is Li Zhi."

Luo Wanhua replied.

"absurd!"

"How can Li Zhuowu, a shameless literati who left his army and joined the army, serve as a governor!"

Zhang Xueyan couldn't help but burst out.

At this time Liu Yingjie said suddenly: "I understand."

"What do you understand?"

Xu Guo asked at this time.

Liu Yingjie said: "I understand why Your Majesty is not afraid of us, the courtiers who speak for the world's officials and officials, resigning."

"He was already prepared!"

"He has long planned to make people who have military status or have been converted to military status ready to serve as civil servants at any time, and deliberately elevate the status of people with military household registration!"

"The reason for this is naturally easy to find. It is nothing more than that the military households have paid the most to protect their homes and the country, and most of them are the children of Wu Xun, so they can be regarded as resting with the country. Therefore, it is not unfair to treat them preferentially, and it is also beneficial. His Majesty uses this to win them over to fight against the clan of officials and officials in the world."

"Now that I think about it, His Majesty hid behind Zhang Taiyue and Shenwu County for so many years to cultivate so many loyal orphans not only to win the hearts of the world, but also to use them to replace the old bureaucrats!"

"Where are Xinbu cabinet ministers and Wen Xuanlang?"

Zhang Xueyan asked Luo Wanhua at this moment.

"Shen Yucheng joined the cabinet, Wen Xuanlang is Ye Jinqing."

Luo Wanhua replied.

"really!"

Xu Guo blurted out two words at this time, and then said regretfully: We shouldn't resign! "

"Although Your Majesty has no desire to learn from the Shimiao to satisfy his own selfishness with the things of the world, he dares to abandon our gentry."

"Although the small stick accepts, the big stick goes away, but if we are really abandoned by Junfu, wouldn't we become frozen cats?"

Luo Wanhua followed up and said, "Yes, in that case, no matter how rich you and I are, you and I are nothing but land rich people, and there will not be much space left in the annals of history in the future."

"I've already resigned, so I can't just lick my face and beg His Majesty to reinstate me?"

Zhang Xueyan also replied regretfully.

Liu Yingjie said at this time: "My official career is a minor matter, so write a letter to persuade my old students not to resign from the official position!"

"It is!"

"I need to write quickly!"

"Personal future is a small matter, and we can't let a martial arts dictatorship really happen in this dynasty!"

……

"Report to the emperor, there is no memorial to resign."

Xiyuan.

On this day, Zhu Yijun was looking at the words written by the prince when he heard Tian Yi reply.

Zhang Hong on the side let out a long sigh after hearing this.

Zhu Yijun therefore looked at him and asked: "Why, you don't want to see too many people from official families resign?"

"Returning to the emperor, the old slave feels that there are too many resignations at once. I am afraid that many capable people will also resign, which will still affect the people of the country."

Zhang Hong hurriedly replied at this time.

"Most of them come out of stereotyped articles, how much difference can it make."

"Even if there are some individuals with good abilities, changing a group of people trained by Xingming Academy and Jingwei Martial Arts with practical ideas to serve as civil servants will produce positive effects equivalent to those brought about by individual capable ministers resigning." Loss."

Zhu Yijun replied.

"Yes! The emperor thinks more thoroughly than the old slave."

Zhang Hong replied with a sneer.

Zhu Yijun didn't continue talking about this topic, but said: "Zhang Jingxiu of Xuan Jin Yiwei."

So, after half an hour, Zhang Jingxiu came to the imperial court: "Your Majesty!"

"How did Jin Yiwei investigate the fraud in the examination room?"

Zhu Yijun asked after Zhang Jingxiu came.

Zhang Jingxiu hurriedly replied: "We have found a lot, and we are preparing to write a test book and report it."

"Tell me."

Zhu Yijun ordered.

"Qizou Your Majesty, in addition to the fraud case of the Yingtian Township Examination, there was also a case of fraud in the courtyard examination in Sichuan. The great master Liang Tingbin was exposed by the staff sent by Jin Yiwei to his side. He directly disclosed the examination questions to the children of the local officials, but he did not accept bribes to disclose , but revealed to the official’s sons who had caught his eye for talent and learning, in this case, if Jin Yiwei didn’t investigate specifically, it would be difficult to find clues.”

"Also, Zhang Chengyou, the chief examiner of Henan's rural examination, was exposed by the house officials instigated by Jin Yiwei. He and other house officials teamed up and agreed to only record articles containing the words "Shi, Zhao, Li, He, and Gong". The fraud was due to accepting bribes, but he took the initiative to show his favor to several local prominent families in exchange for their support."

"In addition, the Fengyang Huizhou government examination is no longer determined by the magistrate, but by the local wealthy families. There are even situations where several wealthy families almost fought for the quota and were persuaded by the magistrate. If there were no internal conflicts among these wealthy families, There is a rich family who took the initiative to contact the Jinyiwei, and it was difficult for the Jinyiwei to find out the clues."

……

Zhang Jingxiu glanced at Zhu Yijun after speaking.

Zhu Yijun said: "It was not strict enough in the past, so that the road for the common people in this world to become rich and powerful has become full of thorns. Even if I widen this road again, some people will take the initiative to set up roadblocks and throw thorns in it, so that the promotion of the new ceremony It's very slow!"

"After all, if there are few opportunities to improve, who is willing to seriously learn new etiquette and restrain themselves?"

As soon as Zhu Yijun said that, he said, "Immediately arrest people and deal with them severely after finding out!"

"Yes!"

……

Huizhou Prefecture two months later.

Because it was found out that officials in the Huizhou government had manipulated the government examinations, Zhu Yijun ordered those involved in the case to go out in the streets and deal with the officials in the government who were not involved in the case.

Not long after returning home, Xu Guo and his son Xu Lide were in the attic of their house looking at a group of officials involved in fraud who were being escorted through the streets.

Xu Lide asked Xu Guo at this time: "Father, some classmates want to go to Beijing to make a statement together, pleading for the corrupt officials in the world, and hope that the emperor will give him a chance to reform. Do you think my son needs to participate?"

"No need!"

"How can a country be established if the family is not upright?"

"In addition, I have already expressed love for my father and the officials of the world, and even resigned for them, it is enough love!"

"You don't have to sacrifice for the officials of the world anymore, so what you have to do now is not to intercede for them, but to be loyal to His Majesty, so that no one in the Xu family will be an official, let alone no official children in the court. "

"You know, His Majesty has already boldly transferred military officials who cannot go to the battlefield to civilian positions, and started to use only military officials. It can be seen that His Majesty has long been prepared, why should we bother ourselves."

Xu Guo said in a deep voice.

Xu Lide nodded in agreement.

Then, Xu Guo took the initiative to ask Xu Lide: "Did you go to Wuxi Donglin Hall to listen to the lecture?"

"Yes!"

"Mr. Donglin advocates elegance, and we, the sons of officials, all admire it."

Xu Lide said.

Xu Guo suddenly said sharply: "What is Gao Jie, a gentleman will only bring disaster to the country!"

then.

Xu Guo then said to his son: "What we need to do now is not to go to the Donglin Hall to listen to lectures, but to go to the Imperial Prison, go there to listen to lectures, and then strive to join Jinyiwei!"

"Jinyiwei?"

Xu Lide was a little surprised.

Xu Guo looked at his son: "That's right, Jin Yiwei, you should go to Beizhen Fusi and surrender yourself, saying that you don't know enough about Jinxue, and you have serious problems in your thinking, so that you have done something that violates the king's law." , such as slandering Grand Master Zhang, but wishing to enter Jinyiwei to reflect on himself and be punished."

"My son never slandered Grand Master Zhang."

"madness!"

"It's not a question of whether you have it, it's a question of whether you can go to prison and be locked up for a period of time to listen to lectures!"

"Oh! The son is going north tomorrow."
