PS: Please do not subscribe to this chapter for the time being. We are working hard to modify the content of previous chapters.

If we give in this time and abolish the ancestral system of "only students are not allowed" in accordance with the demands of those students, will these students who have tasted the sweetness ask for more in the future?

If we give in this time and follow the requirements of the students and re-introduce the old method of selecting scholars through the imperial examination, will the way forward for the people of the Ming Dynasty be blocked again? Will the right to speak be monopolized by those scholars again?

?

Yes, letting Zeng Cheng and Liu Heming take the blame can indeed get rid of those students, but when Zeng Cheng and Liu Heming end up "the cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked", who will be willing to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty in the future?

For example, in the Hongwu Dynasty's North and South List case, the civil servants in the Zhengde Dynasty killed Ma Shun, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and in the Chongzhen Dynasty, everyone except Emperor Chongzhen sold the chief minister at a clearly stated price. There are many such bad things in history.

Performed.

Zhu Jinsong naturally does not want these bad things to happen again.

After laughing for a while, Zhu Jinsong snorted coldly and said: "Right is right and wrong is wrong. They are obviously wrong. Why do you two act like you are in the wrong court?"

Zeng Cheng and Liu Heming looked at each other again and said tentatively: "Your Majesty, everyone in the world..."

Zhu Jinsong waved his hand directly and asked with a smile: "Yuyouzhongkou? Let me ask you, is this world a world of people, or a world of scholars?"

Zeng Cheng was immediately choked and speechless.

At the same time, it was also the world of scholar-bureaucrats.

Although Emperor Zhu had been working hard to change, the Ming Dynasty was still unable to completely get rid of certain characteristics of the feudal dynasty.

Emperor Zhu also thought of the issues that Zeng Cheng and Liu Heming thought of. Emperor Zhu also knew what kind of sensation handling a major case involving nearly 100,000 people at once would cause in the Ming Dynasty - even if someone stood up and raised a flag of rebellion.

No surprise at all!

Of course, from the perspective of an emperor, it is actually a good thing that the law does not punish the public, and it is actually a good thing to allow some people to dig up the dam - without the background of bitterness, who can know what sweetness tastes like?

?

However, Emperor Zhu finally decided to deal with them all.

The royal family of the Japanese Kingdom needs to part with some of it. They don't care whether the envoys sent out are materials for study and study. They only care about the aristocratic content of the envoys.

Judging from the name, the Sauron Battalion is a battalion-level army. However, in terms of actual organization, the Sauron Battalion is a complete division-level organization, and all the soldiers of this army come from the Sauron Ministry.

From the end, they are equipped and trained in accordance with the standard equipment and training of a Category A mountain division.

After lowering his head and pondering for a long time, Emperor Zhu suddenly raised his head and commanded in a deep voice: "Transfer the Sauron camp from Heilongjiang to Luo."

What's more important is that the two armies, the First Guards Army and the Solon Camp, have always respected Emperor Zhu as a god, and have always only obeyed Emperor Zhu's dispatches and not obeyed the orders of others at all. Even the Governor of the Fifth Army

Commander Liu Heming couldn't even command them!

Because the Tokugawa family has not succeeded in usurping the throne, Mitsuoka Kihito is still the nominal king of Japan. The Edo shogunate can hold the power, but it is inferior to Mitsuoka Kihito in terms of title.

Ren was also the leader of the Japanese country conferred by the Ming Emperor. Naturally, Guangge Jianren could not be bypassed in the quota allocation of Japanese envoys.

A scholar-official who does not want to become a member of a noble family is not a qualified scholar-official.

For example, when people pay homage to an official, the people usually only need to bow their hands and bow to the officials when they see them, but once a case is being questioned, the people should bow to the officials.

"Domineering and doing good fortune" is actually an overused word, not to mention that there is a sentence in "Three Kingdoms·Wei Zhi·Jiang Ji Biography" that "husband 'does good and doing good', the clear commandment of "Book"", the 70th chapter of "Dream of Red Mansions" There is also a sentence in one episode: "He just coaxes the old lady to like him, so that he can dominate him."

The shogunate also needs to take some of it away, but while the shogunate cares about the aristocratic content, it also cares about whether the envoys have the talent to study.

As for the restrictive conditions given by Tokugawa Ieqi, it requires that two places must be allocated to talented civilian scholars...can this be considered a condition?

Shimazu Hisamitsu and Matsudaira Nobunobu immediately took the lead and said: "Hai! We will obey the general's orders!"

Judging from the literal meaning, the scholar-officials represent the interests of the entire scholar community, and the aristocratic family members represent the interests of a certain clan or a certain surname. Of course, the scholar-officials who come from humble backgrounds want to have more rights, and those who have always been aloof and superior The family members are absolutely unwilling to give up their rights and interests, so the two can be said to be contradictory to each other.

Before the Song Dynasty, the world was nominally the empire of the emperor, but in reality it was the empire of the noble families.

Although the First Army of the Imperial Guard plus the Sauron Battalion only has a strength of over 40,000, its combat capabilities are among the best among all the armies of the Ming Dynasty. Just a division-level Sauron Battalion can fight hard. A full army!

It was just that Zhang Dequan had just sent out Emperor Zhu's decree. Ke Zhiming, who hurried to the palace, brought even worse news: "Many students from the Imperial College and Capital University are now gathered outside the palace, demanding that Your Majesty abolish the imperial concubine." Many officials in Beijing were also involved in Emperor Zu's original prohibition that "only members of the family are not allowed to express their opinions"! In addition..."

After hearing Tokugawa Ieki's proviso, all the feudal lords and daimyo present breathed a sigh of relief.

After hearing the news, Emperor Zhu laughed suddenly, and the look on his face gradually became ferocious.

The so-called law does not punish everyone is actually more like the relationship between floods and dams.

Ke Zhiming's heart trembled, and he bowed and said: "In addition, those students also asked Your Majesty to resume the imperial examination!"

As for the people of the world mentioned by Emperor Zhu?

Of course, the people of the world are not limited to scholar-bureaucrats and aristocratic families, but the scholar-bureaucrats and aristocratic families can package them as representatives of the people of the world through the right to speak that they control.

Of course, there is one more thing, that is, Zhu Chongba's time "anything that is beneficial to the military and the people, the members of the army are not allowed to comment - if there are any things that are beneficial to the military and the civilians, there should be officials, sages in the field, ambitious men, simple farmers, and merchants with skills." "Everyone can say it. No one is allowed to stop it, except for students." The rule was completely retained by Emperor Zhu.

Successful usurpation?

Emperor Zhu's move to transfer Sauron's camp to Luo was a clear message to everyone: If you have the guts, just rebel!

What is the difference between a scholar-bureaucrat and a noble family?

After the Song Dynasty, the world was still the emperor's world in name, but in fact it became the world of the scholar-bureaucrats.

Even if Tokugawa Ieqi only holds all the quotas for the imperial envoys in the imperial court, these feudal lords and daimyo will be very dissatisfied. If Tokugawa Ieqi allocates all the quotas in his hands to those who have the talent to study. However, for scholars who are not rich enough in aristocracy, these feudal lords and daimyo may not only be dissatisfied, but may once again cause the collapse of the feudal clans.

Emperor Zhu's words could be described as sound and clear, but when they fell on Zeng Cheng's ears, they were as scary as thunder on the ground.

In fact, Tokugawa Jiaqi also knew in his heart that even if he could succeed in usurping the throne, it would be impossible to control the entire Japanese country in a short period of time, even if it was to ensure that the Japanese country would not be in chaos.

It seems that there is no way to achieve true fairness and justice in the allocation of quotas for the Ming Dynasty envoys. They can only be allocated according to the existing model.

Yes, the Ming Dynasty allowed farmers to give advice on government affairs, and allowed anyone else to give advice on government affairs, and even allowed them to publish articles in newspapers to give advice on government affairs, but only the "shengyuan" group was not allowed to give advice on government affairs.

It's good if you have conditions, but if you're afraid, he won't have any conditions.

Another example is the punishment of being skinned and shredded and implicating family members and even clan members - since you have received the salute of the people, you should be mentally prepared to be skinned and shredded for embezzling sixty taels of silver.

As for the feudal lords in various places, the daimyo is much simpler. They neither care about the aristocratic content of the Ming Dynasty envoys nor the talent for reading, because the Ming Dynasty envoys they send are all their own family members, and studying in the Ming Dynasty is just a matter of

They give the family members a quick way to climb up.

But Zeng Cheng also knew in his heart that since Emperor Zhu asked this question, it meant that the people in the world in Emperor Zhu's eyes were not just the scholar-bureaucrats, but all the people in the entire Ming Dynasty.

Seeing Ke Zhiming hesitate, Emperor Zhu couldn't help but snorted: "What else?"

After feeling secretly in his heart, the Tokugawa family looked around at all the feudal lords. The daimyo glanced at each other and said solemnly: "If you agree to this condition, you can prepare your own envoys. If you don't

Agreed... naturally this opportunity to increase the quota has nothing to do with you."

But looking at the essence through all the appearances, it is not difficult to find that whether it is a group of scholar-bureaucrats or a wealthy family, they essentially want to monopolize the officialdom by monopolizing educational resources and cutting off other people's paths to advancement.

Ensure that power flows within their circle.

Only the remaining quota of envoys after the profits were divided among all parties was what the Tokugawa family could freely use.

After being silent for a while, Zeng Cheng bowed slightly and replied: "Your Majesty cares for the people of the world, but the people of the world may not understand your majesty's painstaking efforts."

What if some bastards are allowed to collude to dig out the embankments because the so-called law does not hold the public accountable? Because those bastards have families, so we should let them go?

The only result of doing this is that they drag everyone to death - today they drag the people, tomorrow they drag the officials, and the day after tomorrow they drag it to Emperor Zhu?

Zhang Dequan, who had been standing behind Emperor Zhu, even though he responded, he felt a turmoil in his heart - among the many armies of the Ming Dynasty, there were two special armies. One was the First Army stationed outside the capital, and three of its subordinates

Among the infantry divisions, all the troops of the First Division came from the Shandong Chief Envoy Division, and the First Regiment under it was entirely composed of soldiers from Ningyang County. Another special army was the Solon Battalion.

Emperor Zhu laughed loudly. Not only did he not pay attention to Zeng Cheng's persuasion, he stood up directly and walked slowly: "Right and wrong, merits and demerits, I don't have to say, you don't have to say, those who want to ride

Those who lord it over the common people don't count. Those who really have the final say are the millions and millions of common people in the Ming Dynasty. Even if those bastards can deceive the common people for a while, I will only bear the infamy for a few years.

When the people see their true colors clearly, they will naturally give me justice."

The so-called "shengyuan" refers to all scholars from county schools to universities - the Ming Dynasty mandated that all children must receive a complete social studies and county school education, but it is not mandatory in government schools and universities, because the Ming Dynasty

I can't afford that much money either.

This has also caused a very magical phenomenon. If you ask anyone on the street, they may have graduated from a county school, but only a small number of people who have actually completed or even just studied in a provincial school can go to university.

Even fewer have completed college.

Rather than causing another messy incident that caused the collapse of various feudal lords, Tokugawa Ieki thought it would be better to allocate some of these quotas and try to increase the chances of allocating quotas to civilians with talent in reading by attaching restrictive conditions.

In other words, some of the remaining features of the feudal dynasty were deliberately left behind by Emperor Zhu.

Therefore, Emperor Zhu’s question itself was problematic—the scholar-bureaucrats could stately say that they were the people of the world, so the world was the world of the people of the world.

It was not that Tokugawa Ieqiu had never thought about holding all the places for Ming Dynasty envoys in his hands. However, after thinking about it again and again, Tokugawa Ieqiu had to give up this beautiful idea.

As for the Japanese country, it has always been a glorious tradition for the lower class to conquer the upper class.

When floods come, the dams that anyone is responsible for are at risk of breaking. Only by strictly implementing the responsibility to everyone can we urge everyone to work hard to strengthen the dams.

After Zeng Cheng and Liu Heming left the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Zhu, who was full of powerlessness, slumped down on his chair and began to make calculations in his mind.

In other words, according to the standards of the previous Ming Dynasty or Qing Dynasty, the current Ming Dynasty may have hundreds of millions of talents, but the masters of Juren and Jinshi are still rare.

The public also tacitly believes that those who study in universities are equivalent to Jinshi masters. Although there is a tendency to become more common as the number increases, no matter how common it is, the status of Jinshi masters is still vaguely superior to others.

Since Emperor Zhu re-established the Ming Dynasty, the taxes that could have suffocated his family have disappeared. All the food grown by his family has been returned to his family, and no landlords have come to ask for rent anymore.

, the days of waking up hungry in the middle of the night and having to drink water to satisfy your hunger are gone forever.

What's this?

This is a great blessing to survive!

Now these scholars do not want to serve the emperor, but are kneeling outside the palace, crying and shouting to restore the ancestral system. What do they want to do?

In other words, according to the standards of the previous Ming Dynasty or Qing Dynasty, the current Ming Dynasty may have hundreds of millions of talents, but the masters of Juren and Jinshi are still rare.
