Chapter 547

PS: Please don’t subscribe to this chapter yet, the previous chapters have been restored to Chapter 537.

Emperor Zhu ignored the confused scholars and said with a smile: "There is a proverb in Europe that all roads lead to Rome, but have you idiots ever thought that many people are directly in the city?"

Born in Rome?”

"Zhu Jianyong, the eldest son of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, can't compare with you scholars who have been studying for more than ten years in terms of essays. In terms of martial arts, he cannot compare with the veterans of the First Division of the Imperial Guard. But he was destined to be the Ming Dynasty emperor from the day he was born.

The prince, the future emperor, was not born in Rome, but he owned Rome."

"Of course, you can say that there is only one Zhu Jianyong in the world, but please think about it carefully with your brains." At this point, Emperor Zhu suddenly pointed to a scholar and said, "If his family has thousands of hectares of fertile land and huge wealth, he

Is it possible to ask a scholar who is well-read in poetry and literature to enlighten him since he was a child? What about you?"

When Emperor Zhu's words fell, all the scholars present were completely shocked. Some of the scholars looked at their companions with complicated eyes, and some of them looked at Emperor Zhu with complicated expressions.

Hidden with hatred.

Those scholars who secretly felt cruel and wished for Emperor Zhu's sudden death were not because Emperor Zhu was foul-mouthed and kept calling them fools and fools, but because Emperor Zhu revealed an extremely cruel story in just a few words.

The reality - different backgrounds, different starting points, and naturally different end points.

However, while all the scholars were deep in thought, Zeng Cheng couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Majesty, I think I am quite knowledgeable. I am responsible for the enlightenment of our little grandson. Although my family

The child is not very impressive, but at the age of three he can recite a thousand-character classic, the Three-Character Classic, and most of the Analects of Confucius, which is indeed much better than many children."

Liu Heming, who was standing next to Zeng Cheng, also said: "Your Majesty, I am not as knowledgeable as Mr. Zeng Ge, but my family is quite wealthy. It is not difficult to hire a few more powerful gentlemen.

In addition, I was born in martial arts, so I also taught several children in my family to practice martial arts. Although they were not very effective, they can be said to be both civil and military."

The personal statements of Zeng Cheng and Liu Heming were more like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of these scholars.

As the saying goes, if the drum is not beaten, it will not sound, and if the words are not explained, it will not be clear. Before Emperor Zhu, Zeng Cheng, and Liu Heming spoke directly, the scholars present may still think of relying on their own advantages of reading to let their children win.

He was closer to the starting line of success than others, but when Emperor Zhu, Zeng Cheng, and Liu Heming spoke directly, the scholars present no longer thought so.

Yes, there is indeed only one Zhu Jianyong that Emperor Zhu said at the beginning, and no one has ever thought of comparing him with a prince like Zhu Jianyong. After all, the paths that both parties will take in the future are completely different, and there is basically no competition. But once

What about the children of officials like Cheng and Liu Heming?

Even these scholars themselves had a good plan. If they could persuade Emperor Zhu to restore the so-called "ancestral system", their children would be closer to the starting line of success than others.

If the "ancestral system" is really restored, then the children of Zeng Cheng, Liu Heming and other officials will basically not need to read many poems and books to rely on the tradition of conferring wives and wives, and get closer than anyone else.

success.

What's even more terrible is that the children of officials such as Zeng Cheng and Liu Heming are in competition with the scholars all over the world - there are only so many official positions, and one more place for the children of noble families means that they will be eligible for the imperial examination.

Scholars who serve as officials have lost another opportunity!

fair?

On the surface, all scholars in the Ming Dynasty are on a common starting line. However, the reason why this starting line is fair is not because it is fair to everyone, but because the Ming court relied on public power to build fairness.

When Tokugawa Iesai had a headache because Mitsukaku Kihito and his son refused to take a surname, Mitsukaku Kihito and Kanmiya Ehito and his son also had a headache because of the series of actions of the shogunate.

However, the crux of the problem is that there are already people shouting in support of the Tokugawa family to wear yellow robes!

Kuan Gong Huiren shook his head slightly: "No news has been sent back yet. After all, there is a hundred and eighty thousand miles between Japan and Tianzhu. Now messengers may not be able to reach Tianzhu."

After receiving this expected and unexpected answer from Kuan Gong Huiren, Guangge Jianren couldn't help but let out a long sigh, his face full of decadence and helplessness.

After all, the Japanese country was not the Ming Dynasty.

For an ever-changing battlefield, the speed of delivering messages even a quarter of an hour faster than others can determine the outcome of a war, let alone several days?

Let’s take the simplest example.

Suppose that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty suddenly decided to attack the Japanese country, and the army's attack speed was overwhelming, and the Japanese country happened to plan to delay the time by pretending to surrender.

From the Japanese country to the Ming Dynasty capital, it takes a month, right? Did the Japanese country gain one month?

Besides being envious, Guangge Jianren couldn't help but feel a bit of hatred in his heart.

Although I usually close the door and call myself Tianhuang, when it comes to treating you, the Ming Emperor, I am a humble person but I very much abide by the way of being a minister!

Now, you, the Ming Dynasty’s ambassador to Japan, hooked up with that rebellious minister Tokugawa Ieki and sat on my humble neck to shit. Don’t you, the Ming Dynasty emperor, have any responsibility?

As the saying goes, anger arises from the heart and evil comes from the side. The more I thought about it, the more unhappy I became. Naturally, I thought about how I could disgust the Ming Dynasty.

After lowering his head and thinking for a while, Guangge Jianhito simply ordered Kanmiya Eren: "Go to the men in Koga and tell them to arrange for some men to pretend to be samurai from the shogunate and go to the Ming Dynasty."

Guangge Jianren snorted coldly and raised his hand to signal Kuan Gong Huiren to shut up: "Did I ever say that I would send Japanese pirates to the Ming Dynasty?"

Kuan Gong Huiren was stunned immediately.

It’s just that Kuan Gong Huiren couldn’t think of any good way to disgust Ming Dynasty, including the Japanese pirates that Kuan Gong Huiren just mentioned.

What's this?

This is rubbish, even if you eat shit, you can’t keep up with the heat!

After thinking for a long time, Ishikawa Inin couldn't think of any way to deal with it. Ishikawa Iin simply bowed to Miangge Jianren and said: "May I ask Your Majesty, Tottori Domain..."

Guangge Jianren seemed to be suddenly awakened. After saying "Oh" twice, he looked at the feudal lords present and asked, "I wonder if you, sir, have any good solutions?"

As the words of Guangge Jianjin fell, all the feudal lords and daimyo present showed their eyes and noses, nose and heart, and no one answered Guangge Jiannin's question at all.

This is different from the script!

In other words, the problem the Japanese court faced now was no longer how to solve the problem of lepers, but how to deal with the large number of civilian patients coming from the shogunate.

Since Tokugawa Ieki, that bastard, dared to drive leprosy patients near Tottori Domain to Tottori Domain, it meant that he dared to drive more civilian patients from the domain to the domain close to the imperial court.

When a large number of civilian patients poured into the vassal areas close to the imperial court, what followed was a huge shortage of food, medicinal materials and safety risks.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, but in his heart, Guangge Jianren wanted to kill that bastard Tokugawa Ieki immediately - this is a typical path taken by the Japanese court, leaving the court with no way to go, you bastard!

Ishikawa Iin then continued: "I think that instead of reacting passively, it would be better... why not take the initiative to accept civilian patients from the shogunate?"

Other feudal lords and daimyo also targeted Ishikawa Iin.

On the contrary, Guangge Jianren slammed the table and shouted: "Everyone be quiet! Ishikawa-kun, do you want to continue talking?"

After thinking about it secretly, Guangge Jianren gritted his teeth and said: "I will find a way to solve the food issue. You just need to take care of the lepers."

However, what Ishikawa Iin, Toudo Takayoshi and others did not expect was that Mitsurugihito actually smiled and waved his hand: "No, this matter is too complicated for us."

When Guangge Jianren said this, all the feudal lords and daimyo present were even more dumbfounded.

However, compared to the confusion of the feudal lords such as Ishikawa Iin and Toudo Takayoshi, Kanmiya Ehito figured out how to play Hikari Aijin.

For the current Japanese court, whether the problem of leprosy can be solved is actually not that important, because it is an obviously unsolvable problem.

In comparison, how to compete with the shogunate for the support of the people and get more Japanese civilians and untouchables to turn to the court is more important.

Take the Guangge Jianren gameplay as an example. The biggest advantage of this gameplay is that it can take advantage of the Ming Dynasty's need for a large number of laborers and supervisory opportunities to divert the young people from the Japanese country.

As we all know, whether it is a regular army or an army that wants to rebel, its main force must be young and strong. As long as a large number of young and strong are diverted, it basically means that the biggest instability factor has been resolved, even if it is

Guangge Jianren asked the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled people to wait for death. They could only lie at home and wait for death. There was no other way out.

The second advantage is that it can gain a certain reputation for the court and the untouchables - Tokugawa Iesai was a shogun in vain. When faced with leprosy, he would only drive away the common people and untouchables under his rule. On the contrary, he was always

The Japanese imperial court and the untouchables who were oppressed by the Tokugawa family were trying to find ways to survive for the common people and untouchables of Japan. They compared the two and made judgments.

After Kannomiya Ehito gave a brief explanation, Ishikawa Iin, Toudo Takayoshi and other feudal lords and daimyo also came to their senses.

I just understand that Guangge Jianren's routine is of no use - no matter how good Guangge Jianren's promise is, it is still a promise. Even if this old coffin scooper finds a way to export laborers and supervisors to the Ming Dynasty, that will be a matter of the future.

, but the commoners and untouchables driven over by the shogunate were right in front of them, and the supplies and medicinal materials of each feudal clan were actually consumed!

Yoshio Ikeda, the leader of the Ikeda family of Tottori Domain who was the first to suffer, cried directly: "His Majesty the Emperor, think twice! I know that His Majesty loves the people, but Tottori Domain is only a small domain after all, not to mention whether the food supply

If you can support it, just managing the good and bad people from the shogunate is beyond your capabilities!"

Takayoshi Toudo also followed suit and said: "Putting an extra cup of water in a wooden basin will not overflow, but putting a basin of water in a cup will definitely overflow - now if we simply calculate it based on the number of good people and untouchables

, then Tottori Domain is like a cup of water, and the shogunate is like a big basin, and Tottori Domain will never be able to bear it!"

Even Ishikawa Iin, who initially proposed to take in a large number of good people and untouchables from the shogunate, also sided with Ikeda Yoshio and Fujido Takayoshi: "Your Majesty, think twice! This approach is too risky!"

However, Guangge Jianren had a sullen face and snorted coldly: "How could I not know that doing this is taking a risk? But now that the shogunate is powerful, a large amount of land, warriors, and Ashigaru are in the hands of the shogunate, and Kinki

The vassals are even closer to those vassal states close to the shogunate, and they are simply still defending. How long can they be able to defend themselves?"

The feudal lords such as Ishikawa Iin and Todo Takayoshi wanted to crack open the head of Mitsuo Jinto and see what was inside his skull.

Just because they couldn't prevent it, they risked their lives to accept the civilians and untouchables driven over by the Tokugawa shogunate?

Isn’t this horse riding nonsense nonsense?

In particular, the so-called method of maintaining reputation by Hikari Ishito is even more bullshit in the eyes of Ishikawa Iin.

Because Tokugawa Jiaqi couldn't let Guangge Jianren invite people to buy reputation - as long as Tokugawa Jiaqi was not too stupid, he would definitely cause trouble as soon as Guangge Jianren started inviting people to buy reputation.

In fact, most of the power of the Japanese country is now in the hands of the Edo shogunate. If the Tokugawa family is determined to block the news or even throw dirty water on Mitsukaku Shiren, Mitsuge Shiren's vision of "all people will follow

"The picture can only be a fantasy, and may even be cursed by the short-sighted commoners and untouchables of the Japanese country.

At that time, even if a humble person can compete with the Tokugawa family through invitations and reputations, if he is not overthrown by those short-tempered Japanese, he will be killed even if his ancestors have great merit!

After some roundabout persuasion from Ishikawa Iin and Toudo Takayoshi, Mitsukaku Kijin had to give up the idea of ​​using reputation to attack Tokugawa Ieashi.

Guangge Jianren had a sullen face and frowned: "Since the shogunate can't accept the good and cheap people coming over, doesn't the shogunate have to win without a fight?"

Things have once again returned to the starting point - not being able to accept the good people and untouchables driven out by the shogunate means that the imperial court and the feudal lords who are close to the imperial court can only deal with it passively. The reputation that they could have gained in the past has now been lost at all.

, but the medicinal materials, doctors and food that should be prepared are still indispensable!
