Chapter 384: Great Talent

Although Ma Wensheng thought so, he was not sure.

I just feel that what I wrote in this paper is a bit too arrogant. He doesn’t like arrogant people. The most important thing is that this article is really a bit naive.

How do he believe that Li Long, as the leader of a country, could not even control North Korea, so he dared to kill him like this?

Although this person is cruel, according to common sense, the more brutal a tyrant is, the more he will be, the more he will be, the more he will be bribed his followers. What's more, in the disaster of Jiazi, the army is the one who takes action. Will these people in turn fight back against Li Long, a thing that is worse than that of a pig or dog?

Ma Wensheng sneered, not knowing who wrote the paper or was too young, but young people like to talk big and make high-profile statements.

Shaking his head, he put the paper aside indifferently.

…………

The next morning, British Duke Zhang Mao, Minister of War Ma Wensheng, and Imperial Horse Eunuch Chen Sheng went to the palace to meet him.

There is no need to give the exam for strategy exams, but Your Majesty needs to read them personally, with the purpose of finding good talents from the children of the nobles.

After experiencing a brief period of depression, Emperor Hongzhi finally regained his vitality.

Life is about to go on. Although he once lamented that the tigers and wolves of the Ming Dynasty were gone and became a group of sheep, what can I do? He is the king and the head of everyone's family, and he can only bear this responsibility and consequences by himself.

Since I can't ride and shoot, I want to use strategy...it's okay.

Emperor Hongzhi recruited the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and the Secretary of the Ministry of the Ministry, all of whom were his humble ministers! As for Zhang Mao, it is not necessary to say that after the general, the tiger father had no dog son. Chen Sheng, the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Prison, had a worse position in the palace than the Sili Prison. However, because he was in charge of the horse politics in the palace, especially the warrior camp directly under the palace, the candidate for the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Prison was bound to be the person he trusted most by Emperor Hongzhi, and this person also needed to have a certain understanding of military affairs.

"Have you selected all the questions from Taoliu?"

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and looked at Ma Wensheng with a bright look.

Ma Wensheng felt guilty recently, and seemed to feel that he was becoming more and more useless and could not do anything well, as if he had been offended by Tai Sui since the previous year and everything went wrong!

At this time, he reluctantly cheered up and replied: "Report to Your Majesty, you have selected it, a total of ten articles. Please read it."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded and said, "I'm working hard for you."

These ten articles must be the result of discussions by Ma Wensheng, Zhang Mao and Chen Sheng, and can almost represent the highest level of military officers.

When Chen Sheng personally sent Ce Wen to Emperor Hongzhi's imperial case, Emperor Hongzhi looked down and looked serious.

Each of these articles can be regarded as the best choice, so the level is not bad.

This made Emperor Hongzhi keep nodding, and there are even a few articles. Even he felt outstanding, which made him feel some comfort. Although these great men could not ride and shoot, they were still considered to be a tiger father without a dog son, and there were still some excellent people.

After reading ten consecutive articles, Emperor Hongzhi gradually became cheerful and smiled and said, "Not bad."

Although he said the word "good" lightly, he was satisfied.

Zhang Mao said in a silence: "Your Majesty, these ten articles are good, but most of them are mediocre, and there are a few who ask about strategies but can't answer them."

Emperor Hongzhi knew it, but he was not angry.

He was disappointed by riding and shooting last time, so now, he has no high requirements for these Shixuns. Most of them cannot answer, as if... hey... that's all.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly remembered something and asked, "Can Fang Jifan go to the exam?"

"Your Majesty, I've taken the exam." Ma Wensheng said.

Emperor Hongzhi lowered his head and looked at these ten articles carefully. However, he did not have the name of Fang Jifan. Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "He must have answered badly."

"This..." Ma Wensheng didn't know what to say.

Fang Jifan is still of the best, otherwise where would those six outstanding disciples come from?

This time, Ma Wensheng also specifically searched Fang Jifan's answer, and found out that he had personally reviewed his article and eliminated it.

How to say it, Fang Jifan's writings were too naive when it comes to conquering Korea.

Of course, it is not easy for Ma Wensheng to use this word to judge Fang Jifan in front of others. On the one hand, he also knew in his heart that Fang Jifan is extraordinary today. Although he did not agree with him, he did not have the confidence to judge him.

On the other hand, it is because the current voyage to the West is all entrusted to Fang Jifan's disciples.

To be honest, if even Xu Jing was in a slump this time, then... life would be impossible. By then, he, the Minister of War, would become a heinous sinner.

It can be said that in the Ming Dynasty, no one can compare to Ma Wensheng. I hope Fang Jifan is a reliable person, because Fang Jifan is reliable, so that he can feel at ease. At least... so that his disciples will be relatively reliable.

At this time, he thought for a while and said, "Xin Jianbo's performance was a bit abnormal this time. I have read his article carefully and carefully examined it. I always feel that there are some details that are inappropriate. Naturally, his articles are incomparable to ordinary people, but I think these ten articles are even more favorable."

Emperor Hongzhi became interested and couldn't help but say, "Is that true? Since that's the case, I'll take it. I want to see how he performed abnormally."

Others also aroused interest. Liu Jian actually thought that Fang Jifan would definitely be selected this time. He had a very accurate view of people, but he made many mistakes on Fang Jifan. After that, he understood that he could not look at this person with an ordinary perspective.

Of course, what made him most happy was that His Majesty seemed to intend to entrust his son to be the servant of the Secretariat because of his son's contribution.

The Secretariat of the Central Secretariat is a false position among civil officials. In fact, it is just a salary. If you want to become an official, you still need the imperial examination. But this is an honor. Liu Jian is also full of his face. After all, isn’t this thanks to Fang Jifan?

Fang Jifan... this person... is still very good. This article was not selected. Although he was the chief minister of the cabinet, he naturally felt biased!

So Liu Jian said, "What Your Majesty said is that Fang Jifan made a lot of excitement and said something very much, but afterwards, he found that this person was of great talent."

Ma Wensheng was slapped in the face and couldn't help but look at Liu Jian with resentment, and said silently in his heart, "Mr. Liu, we are the same group."

But Mr. Liu ignored him, which made Ma Wensheng feel even more disappointed.

The panting eunuch soon took Fang Jifan's article from the story.

When Emperor Hongzhi saw that this article was mentioned in Fang Jifan’s previous secret memorials? No wonder Ma Wensheng did not select this article. The judgment and method of using troops here are indeed too simple and naive!

Of course, Emperor Hongzhi felt vaguely in his heart, maybe Fang Jifan had really guessed it right again?

He was silent for a moment, but Liu Jian showed high interest and said, "Your Majesty, why not let me take a look."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded, and Chen Sheng stepped forward to pick up the article and handed it to Liu Jian. After Liu Jian saw it, he frowned and was a little unsure for a moment.

After thinking about it, he said, "If Fang Jifan's plan works, it will be of great benefit to our Ming Dynasty. Now, the imperial court is difficult to defeat and conquering Korea is really unwise. But if it is not conquered, the face of the heavenly family will be lost, the etiquette and music will be broken, and the consequences will be even more serious."

He continued with a wry smile: "If you really don't have to spend one soldier and one soldier, you can take Li Long and come to the court to punish him. This is a gratifying thing. However, this article is indeed absurd. It is no wonder that Ma Shangshu thinks it is inappropriate. Besides, the Taoliu question talks about how to conquer North Korea. He doesn't answer the questions well, but he answers the questions that are not asked..."

As he said that, he suddenly changed his mind: "But the old minister felt that this plan was not impossible. Of course, the court could not implement this strategy. The risk was too great. Once it failed, it would become a laughing stock. What a pity, Fang Jifan was a pity..."

He felt sorry for Fang Jifan, and even he was moved, thinking that... if he could implement this plan and succeed, it would be a great joy.

But Fang Jifan shouldn't have answered here because such a thing cannot be verified. If you answer it with confidence, it would be vain to say it.

Emperor Hongzhi also nodded and said, "Yes, it's a pity."

Xie Qianting said happily: "Fang Jifan has been jumping too hard recently. If he doesn't suppress his tail, he will jump to the sky. Now that he has not yet reached the point of strategy, it is also a kind of alertness, so that he can't be proud of it."

Everyone laughed.

Even Zhang Mao smiled and said, "This guy is a monster..."

Emperor Hongzhi had some regrets before, and then he was happy. He felt that Xie Qian's words were reasonable, so he said, "Since that's the case, we will reward the talents planned by the Five Army Governor's Office, the Ministry of War and the Imperial Horse Prison, and give them golden belts..."

Everyone said, "I obey the order!"

Although Liu Jian responded to Emperor Hongzhi's words, he was still very sorry. He was now dizzy about the recruitment of money, grain and people. Fang Jifan's method was the simplest and most direct. Although the risk was very high, for some reason, he now had a unique trust with Fang Jifan.

This person’s perspective on the problem is different from that of others.

So when he came out of the warm cabinet, he returned to the cabinet and couldn't help chatting with Li Dongyang!

Li Dongyang looked thoughtful. As the Minister of Revenue, he couldn't bear to give up money or food. Fang Jifan's Cewen opened a new door for him, and he began to think: "Mr. Liu, what do you think of Fang Jifan's Cewen?"
