Chapter 143: The Question of Governing the Barbarians in the Southwest
Time comes November of the first year of the Apocalypse.
In recent days, the temperature has suddenly dropped. The incense burner in the warm pavilion is "crackling", warm, but outside the hall is extremely cold.
The thin-dressed palace people walked between the palace walls, and some were stomped their feet because of the cold. Fortunately, in a few days, the cold-proof clothes of the Instrument Bureau were sent down.
Thinking of this, the palace people are motivated.
As winter was about to begin, as the chief supervisor of the inner court, Wei Zhongxian was in various prisons a few days earlier, and took his minions to patrol the treasury and then reported it to the emperor.
The eunuch in the Needle Industry Bureau was carefully sending Wei Zhongxian out.
Seeing that there was no one around, the eunuch holding the seal came to him, shook his head and began to flatter him, and said flatteringly:
"Master, look at the rare things I have found in Curry."
"What rare objects can be found in the treasury of the Needle Industry Bureau."
After Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, he was still surprised and happily stretched out his head to take a look.
The eunuch holding this hand seal was several ancient bronze coins, with rust marks, and they were not known when they were produced.
Because he was involved in the market in his early years, he was good at gambling and stealing, Wei Zhongxian had some research on this kind of thing.
He looked at it and knew that these ancient coins were definitely not cast by the Ming Dynasty.
Immediately, Wei Zhongxian glared and quickly grabbed the copper coin in his hand. After looking carefully, he saw that the words "Tianqi Tongbao" written on the copper coin were actually written!
His heart sank, and he immediately felt that it was definitely not a good sign that he had discovered this thing.
But maybe I can take advantage of this...
The eunuch who was holding the seal flattered his beard but offered the wrong object. Sure enough, Wei Zhongxian's long donkey face looked gloomy and gradually became distorted by anger.
Wei Zhongxian sneered a few times and suddenly slapped the eunuch in the face.
And with a crisp sound, a red handprint suddenly appeared on the eunuch's face of the eunuch at the needlework bureau. With a whisper, it rolled down from the stone steps.
Before he could understand what was going on, he saw Wei Zhongxian holding a few ancient coins tightly, his eyes rolled in his sockets a few times, and then turned around and headed towards the West Warehouse.
When Wei Zhongxian left, all the eunuchs from the Needle Industry Bureau ran out, and someone asked restlessly:
"Dad father-in-law, what's wrong with Chenchen? He suddenly got so angry."
The palm print was slapped hard. Whether it could save one life or two questions, how dare you mention it again, and then turned around and said angrily:
"What's there to ask?"
"The factory said that our acupuncture office is slow and we must drive out the clothes of the East Sixth Palace before tomorrow sunset."
"Why don't you go to work quickly?"
The eunuchs muttered a few times, but didn't dare to ask again, and they all dispersed like birds and beasts.
"presumptuous!"
In Dongguan Pavilion, Zhu Youxiao threw his brush into the hall in anger and said:
"Donglin Academy actually has the ancient coins of 'Tianqi Tongbao'. What do they want to do if they hide such things privately?"
"Rebel!"
Seeing the emperor so angry, Wei Zhongxian could not tell whether it was cooperating with him or whether it was really aroused by Long Xing.
He turned around and shouted outside the hall:
"Didn't you listen to the emperor? Who has drafted the year number and beat me to death!"
Wang Chaohui stepped out of Qianqing Palace and gave an order to a little eunuch outside the hall. The little eunuch turned around and went to the East Factory.
"Didn't Zhao Kuangyin say that the prime minister needs to use scholars?" Zhu Youxiao gasped for a moment, sneered, and said:
"My Hanlin Academy is a study genius who has passed the science exams in various places. He is well-known, knowledgeable, and speaks nicely."
"When the year number was drafted last year, why didn't anyone know that the year number was used by someone else?"
"Interesting, they are such a group of good scholars. They actually made such a big mistake in this Tianqi period."
Wei Zhongxian was silent for a moment, then suddenly clapped his hands happily and said, "Congratulations to the Emperor."
"What do you like?"
Zhu Youxiao looked at the memorial without raising his head.
"This is a lucky auspicious destiny from heaven, and it is a sign that our dynasty will continue to produce money after this!"
After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao was amazed by Lao Wei's ability to examine the sacred intentions, and was very cooperative. His eyes lit up and he was much more harmonious.
He leaned against the lounge chair and sighed:
"I have more things to do when I return to Beijing for a month than when I personally fight for several months. Zhongxian, I am so tired..."
Wei Zhongxian was a little stunned, then he immediately shut up everyone and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I'm here to share your worries. They can just put them on me."
Suddenly, Zhu Youxiao came to an whim and said:
"Zhongxian, go and make arrangements. I haven't been there for a long time. I'll go tomorrow!"
"Prepare the bow and horses, and use the war horses from the personal expedition."
Wei Zhongxian was not like the Donglin Party. He just obeyed the order and responded immediately and quietly retreated.
Because Queen Zhang Yan's belly became stronger and stronger, Zhu Youxiao went to Yongshou Palace, one of the six Western Palaces tonight.
Duan of Yingyangwei, Nanjing, was named Chunfei after the last time he was selected as a concubine. He was also selected from 5,000 people, a beautiful woman.
After a long time of rain and dew, I suddenly met the lucky one. Concubine Chun was very surprised. She nervously dressed up and took a bath. After she finished the bath, she welcomed the emperor into the palace with the best posture.
That night, there is no need to mention the moment of spring night.
......
Just after the Second Yuan Festival, before anyone could take a breath, the Ministry of Rites and the cabinet submitted a memorial, which was the palace examination questions on the ninth day of the second month of the second year of the Tianqi period.
At first, I planned to be two, and asked about the emperor's heart and the emperor's policies.
Palace Examination, also known as the imperial examination and strategy, belongs to the highest level among the imperial examinations. Those who can reach this point are somewhat real and practical.
When Zhu Youxiao first saw these two questions, he frowned and was confused. This was too general, what could he ask?
In the Ming Dynasty, many candidates could guess the same thing, including the country's politics, the emperor's heart, or the etiquette discussions of ancient and modern times.
In the palace examination in the second year of Tianqi, the top scholar was named Wen Zhenmeng. It seems that there was Lu Xiangsheng, too. Zhu Youxiao remembered that this person was one of the few all-round talents among civil servants.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the memorial in his hand. Soon, Zhu Youxiao's approval continued. The meaning was very simple and not accurate. This question needs to be changed!
Originally, it should be possible to discuss etiquette, political comments and other policy issues, but there must be a reason why the emperor did not go through it.
When ministers can get to this position, they will naturally have two tricks, the cabinet and the Ministry of Rites will work together, and someone will soon raise a new policy.
Those who come to the palace examination are all so-called elite scholars in the world.
Didn’t the emperor just come back from the southwest in person? That’s right, let these people evaluate the new policies implemented by the court in the southwest!
For example, forcibly transforming the land into a new land, and for example, opening a school to allow the people of the chieftain to learn Chinese, Chinese, and popularize basic culture.
When Zhu Youxiao saw this question again, he immediately agreed without saying a word.
The emperor nodded, and the policy of the second year of Tianqi was decided - to ask about the policy of the Southwest Yishi.
The people who set the questions are all senior ministers of this dynasty, so there will be no problem with their knowledge.
This question seems simple, but in fact it is very political and also tests the divergent thinking of scholars.
The answers on the test paper can easily distinguish whether a person has real talent and knowledge.
Zhu Youxiao was a little curious. Once the question was changed, could Wen Zhenmeng still become the top scorer in the palace examination of the Renxu exam?
After Wei Zhongxian learned the news, he was so happy that he laughed loudly. He could tell at a glance that the cabinet masters in the cabinet were also learning from him.
I learned quite quickly!
This time, Wei Zhongxian didn't understand the academic matters, but when he went to the palace examination, he asked the emperor's southwest policy. Didn't this ask those scholars to praise the emperor?
As a censor, you can fight for the reputation of the Qingliu by criticizing the current affairs. None of these scholars who participated in the palace examination came to be successful and famous for their success.
These immortals are all cunning!
