I am the king of the dead

Chapter 600 Yong-yong-eyed peeps, dirty people's fingers!

Chapter 600: Ten eyes peeping, dirty and dirty!
In the early morning of the next day, it was just dawn, and the courtiers were already waiting at the gate of Chengtian, waiting for His Majesty to go to the morning court. There was no major event on this day, but a gossip slowly spread among the crowd.

The news that His Majesty was going to set up a chief assistant quickly spread among the crowd.

He Zhang's injury has completely healed, and the empty sleeve of his right arm is swinging casually in the wind. He Zhang's face sinks like water when he hears that His Majesty is going to set up the position of chief assistant.

He is in good health and needs to be reinstated. He went to Jiuzhong Hall yesterday and paid homage to Yu Qian.

"Your Majesty is here!" Xiao Huangmen sang loudly, and His Majesty, who liked to ride his horse to the court, rode his horse straight from Chengtianmen to Fengtian Hall, where the artifacts of the Ming Dynasty were located.

After three blows of the clean whip, all the ministers filed in.

Most of the court meetings held every five days were to announce decrees and summaries. In the Ming Dynasty, the basic pattern of ministries deciding specific government affairs, court councils deciding policy directions, and court councils announcing had formed.

"The epidemic was reported in Guilin Prefecture, Guangxi, and more than [-] people, men and women, died. The Huimin Pharmaceutical Bureau of Guilin Prefecture entered the dead city and only two survived. The plague was also reported in Huangmei County, Huguang. More than [-] people died, and the whole family was wiped out. For more than seven hundred households, Huangmei doctor sentenced them to enter the workshop and die of epidemic disease." Shen Yi, the left servant of the household department, said in a low voice with regret.

Most of the epidemic prevention in Ming Dynasty was to close the cities and workshops until the epidemic was completely over.

This kind of dead city and dead square can only enter and exit.

The doctors of Daming Huimin Pharmacy did not flee, but chose to live and die with the common people.

"I request an order to burial the offspring of the kind doctor." Shen Yi bowed his head and said.

Zhu Qiyu said with a serious face: "Yes, one should burial the heroic heroes on the stele, and the other should be pensions according to the heroic martyr system."

The wealthy Ming court was tyrannical, and the pensions were all in accordance with the top standard.

Yu Shiyue, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, went out and bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, Kong Wenying, the left servant of the Ministry of Punishment, has passed away. Please give him a generous burial."

"The Ministry of Rites determined the posthumous posthumous title and buried it in the Jinshan Cemetery." Zhu Qiyu knew that Kong Wenying was Yu Shiyue's right-hand man.

Kong Wenying was a Jinshi in the 17th year of Yongle, one class earlier than Yu Qian. He had no power, no power, no background. He first went to Luling, Jiangxi Province to be a county magistrate.

Wenying was arrested and interrogated by the imperial edict, and the situation was investigated in detail. The leader was detained alone, and he was sent to Beijing for punishment, and all the rest were sent back. This kind of treatment made everyone in Luling applaud. The things of gathering howls for wrongdoing can no longer be heard.

Governance complaints, Kong Wenying said he was second, no one dared to say he was first.

Kong Wenying was a master of punishment. At the age of 63, he had assisted Yu Shiyue in handling the affairs of the Ministry of Punishment for more than seven years. No one criticized the result. He died suddenly and died of a sudden illness.

"The minister leads the decree." Hu Yi went out to lead the decree.

Shi Pu, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, hesitated for a long time before standing up and saying, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

"Since His Majesty ascended the throne, several constructions have started. Today, there are Shijing, Shengzhou, Ma'an, Jianghuai, Liuzhi and Wuchang Special Zones. A special zone in Liaodong is under construction. Jingtai'an Minqu [-] Li, Jing'an Water Conservancy, Yellow River Embankment, The construction of canals, the dredging of the Yangtze River, the hardening of official roads and post roads, etc., the work is booming."

"Kuai Xiang built the capital for blacksmiths, and Lu Xiang was a stonemason. The minister asked Kuai Xiang to be the right servant of the Ministry of Industry, and supervise the craftsmen to check the construction of the labor camp."

As soon as this remark came out, the ministers talked a lot.

Zhu Qiyu said curiously: "Kuai Xiangzhen knows that during the Yongle period, he was in charge of building the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and then served as the director of the Ministry of Industry, the general manager of Shijing Factory, and then the general manager of Shengzhou, but who is this Lu Xiang?"

Shi Pu hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Lu Xiang is a native of the west city of Shuntian Prefecture. He has been a stonemason for generations. He entered the Beijing camp in Zhengtong for 14 years. He beheaded seven enemies. He was awarded military exploits and moved to Taipusi. He is the deputy general manager of Shengzhou Factory. .”

Since the establishment of the government-run coal and steel factory in the Ming Dynasty, a group of outstanding craftsmen have emerged. Li Binyan set up a craftsman city in Songjiang Prefecture in order to form a joint force of craftsmen, and now the more outstanding craftsmen among these craftsmen have begun to enter the court as officials. up.

The right servant of the Ministry of Industry, a senior official of the third rank.

"Do you have any objections?" Zhu Qiyu looked around the group of ministers after asking, but no one answered.

When His Majesty appointed the Master of Craftsman and established the Shijing Factory, the ministers had already anticipated today, so naturally no one objected.

Mainly there is nothing to object to.

At the beginning of the world, Emperor Taizu Gao abolished the government-run factories and changed it to levy classes, in order to recuperate, but the coal and iron levy has never been clear, and it has been reduced over the years, and it is not good for Ming Dynasty.

The government-run factory is an important practice of the Ming Dynasty's restructuring, which is not only beneficial to the court, but also to the Ming Dynasty. It has been tested in practice.

The appearance of the craftsman official is inevitable, and it is also the default rule that the craftsman official official department does not involve the other five departments.

"Sure." Zhu Qiyu saw that no one objected, so he naturally pushed the boat along.

Hu Wei stood up as the Minister of the Ministry of Rites and bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to announce. Shuntianfu Township Examination, Hanlin Liu Yan and Huang Jian of the Imperial Academy are the examiners. The list is revealed. Neither Chen Ying, the son of Chen Xun, nor Wang Lun, the son of Wang Wen middle."

"Chen Xun? Is that the Chen Xun I know?" Zhu Qiyu said strangely.

Ever since Chen Xun went to the temple in Confucian robes last time and was beaten by Hu Wei against the Confucians, Chen Xun has been deposed and has not been used until now, and today he suddenly heard this name again.

Chen Xun used to be the chief assistant of the cabinet from the first year of Jingtai to the fourth year of Jingtai, and a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion.

"Yes." Hu Wei said indignantly: "Chen Xun shook his lips and tongue, and the examiners Liu Yan, Huang Jian and others reviewed the injustice. Please follow the Hongwu period. Emperor Gao punished Liu Sanwu and others for their crimes and re-opened the examination rules. His discussions were fierce. .”

Liu Sanwu was the chief examiner for the 30th year of Hongwu, the major case of the North and South List of the Ming Dynasty. In that year, all Jinshi and No. [-] were only southerners and no northerners. Emperor Taizu Gao was furious and reopened the imperial examination.

"Re-opening the imperial examination, Chen Xun is so proud of him!" Zhu Qiyu flicked his sleeves and looked at Wang Wen.

Wang Wenzhi and Wang Lun also failed to win the election, and Hu Yi has never been a targetless person. It is obvious that Wang Wen did not use less effort on this matter.

Before Wang Wen could open his mouth, Gao Gu, a senior scholar in the Jinshen Palace, came out and bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, it is nonsense to reopen the imperial examination. It is no longer advisable for ministers' children to rush in with poor scholars. Besides, they are not satisfied with righteous fate, so they want to take advantage of this." Blame the examiner?"

"Six ministers and Wenyuan Pavilion bachelors, because of their kindness, it is my court practice not to be promoted. Wang Wen, you are so majestic!"

Hu's two sons are both Enyin, and Hu Changxiang is now working in the imperial hospital, which is a cheap job, and few people in the court know about it.

The offspring of ministers never participated in the imperial examinations, and it was the custom in the official circles of the Ming Dynasty that the offspring of ministers only received their salaries for their kindness.

It was fine for Chen Xun's son to participate in the imperial examination, after all, he had already resigned, but it was indeed a taboo for Wang Wen's son to participate in the imperial examination.

During the ceremony, Zhang Ning came out and said in a loud voice: "Ten eyes of the scorpion are peeping, and thousands of people are pointing at it. Let me ask you and me, how can we not feel ashamed."

"In the Song Dynasty, Fan Zhi was a chancellor, and his followers asked to be moved to rank, and Fan Zhi wrote poems to abstain from him. Compared with Chen Xun and Wang Wen, how is the virtuous or not worthy?"

Zhang Ning recited a poem at the beginning, which was "Admonishing Children and Nephews Eight Hundred Characters" written by Fan Zhi, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty.

How many people looked at it, it was dirty if it was passed, it was incompetent if it was not passed, it was nepotism to seek promotion, and it was nepotism to get promoted based on ability, if someone asked him, how could he not be ashamed?
Zhang Ning used this poem to scold Chen Xun and Wang Wen for being unvirtuous and unfilial.

Gao Gu was unreasonable and continued to speak loudly: "There are more than 130 candidates in Shuntian Mansion, and [-] candidates for the Chinese style. If you use all the examples to advance, will it not corrupt the imperial examination system? Please punish Chen Xun and Wang Wen for their crimes." .”

Zhu Qiyu looked at Wang Wen again. According to his understanding of Wang Wen, Wang Wen should not be so confused.

Wang Wen came out and said rather ashamedly: "My son participated in the imperial examination, but I don't know it. I have no way to teach my son, and I am guilty."

Wang Wen wiped the sweat from his forehead. His son Wang Lun and Chen Xun's son Chen Ying were good friends. Chen Ying encouraged his son to take the imperial examination.

When Wang Wen knew about it, he was furious and went to ask Yu Qian for help. Yu Qian closed the door and didn't see him.

Wang Wen couldn't struggle, so he simply explained the reason directly.

"Punish the salary for one year, and demote the official to three levels, so as to imitate others." Zhu Qiyu thought about the punishment for a while.

He knew about this matter, and he had already thought about punishing him.

It is an unspoken rule that the descendants of ministers are not allowed to participate in the imperial examinations, and it has not been written into the etiquette or law. However, this rule is generally observed and established by convention.

If you are an official in the same dynasty, you must be taken care of.

In this regard, the Ming Dynasty has done a good job in all dynasties, and only Yan Song and Yan Shifan, father and son, were officials in the same dynasty.

Wang Wen is Zhu Qiyu's confidant minister, and the penalty for downgrading his salary is already a severe punishment, and the most important thing is to dismiss him.

Wang Wen knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times and kowtowed five times to thank him, then wiped the sweat from his brow and returned to work.

"Scholar Gao, how about Chen Ying's article?" Zhu Qiyu asked about the business.

Although the examiners are in charge of the imperial examinations in Ming Dynasty, both the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Academy have to look at them, and Gao Gu will also mark the papers.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Wen was able to return to the court as an official because of Gao Gu's recommendation. Normally, it was a nepotism relationship, but this time Gao Gu proposed to punish Wang Wen. It can be seen that Wang Wen's son Wang Lun took the imperial examination, which angered Gao Gu, an old scholar.

Gao Gu took out an examination paper from his sleeve and bowed his head and said: "Chen Xun's writings are the best in the world, and I dare not argue with them, but this Chen Ying can only be described as ignorant and incompetent."

"Chen Ying's volume, there is no comment on the volume."

What is no comment?

It's just that the paper is so poorly written that the examiners don't know what to say, so they simply don't approve a single word, to save face for the candidates.

"Submit it here, I'll take a look." Zhu Qiyu signaled Xing'an to bring over Chen Ying's exam paper.

Zhu Qiyu is not good at the collection of classics and history, and he frowned as soon as he got the paper.

The students of Daming are good at Taige Style, Zhu Qiyu has read countless papers, which one is not square?Pretty much the same as print.

But this Chen Ying's paper is really difficult to describe in a word, the words are ugly, unorganized, and the preamble does not match the postscript.

If he can win the exam, Zhu Qiyu will suspect that there is a big problem with the imperial examination system of Ming Dynasty...

Zhu Qiyu picked up the paper of the last one among the Juren, looked at it for a long time and said: "Chen Xun is going to make trouble, Cheng Jing, please engrave and post Chen Ying's paper. Lin Ting's papers are also rigidly posted, so that scholars all over the world can see if there is any unfair review!"

"He wants to make trouble, but I can make more trouble than him. He doesn't feel ashamed, and I don't feel ashamed either."

Public execution.

Gao Gu was so frightened that he quickly bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, this move is not in line with etiquette."

Zhu Qiyu immediately asked back: "Chen Xun is so nonsense, has he ever cared about etiquette, he doesn't want to be decent, why should I be decent?"

"I've made up my mind, don't discuss it with a senior scholar."

Gao Gu is the kind of old-fashioned pedantic gentleman who doesn't like to tear his face apart, but the emperor doesn't care about any etiquette, if Chen Xun wants to make trouble, can Zhu Qiyu give him a good face?
Zhu Qiyu was a little puzzled, Chen Xun was not a fool, he didn't know what his son was like, how dare he mess around like this?
Xing'an said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Chen Ying lied to his father, and he hired someone to write the homework on weekdays."

Only then did Zhu Qiyu understand that feelings are such a big cheater.

"Start playing if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do." Xing'an said loudly, shaking his whisk.

He Zhang only had his left arm, so he stood up and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, I have an answer!"

He Zhang came out and attracted the attention of all the courtiers. It is really empty right arm, which makes people feel a little embarrassed.

"He Zongxian is loyal to the emperor and the country. This injury will last for a hundred days. He Zongxian should take another half a month of training. I will feel at ease." Zhu Qiyu leaned forward and said.

He Zhang shook his head and said: "I have no serious problems. I eat the emperor's salary, and I am loyal to the emperor. I share my worries for the emperor. I have been lying on the sick bed for a long time. I am ashamed of myself. I am going to court today. I have something to hear and want to say."

"Xing'an, will the reward of the Qigong card be sent to He Zhang's mansion?" Zhu Qiyu asked Xing'an again about the distribution of the big gift package of the Qigong card.

"Send it." Xing'an replied hastily.

He Zhang said: "Thank you, Your Majesty Long En."

Zhu Qiyu knew what He Zhang was going to say. Yesterday He Zhang went to the Jiuzhong Hall and had attended the memorial, and Zhu Qiyu was practicing Tai Chi.

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.

Zhu Qiyu just wanted to change the topic frequently to make He Zhang's aura a little weaker. Logically speaking, since he thanked him, he should return to work, but He Zhang stood there upright.

The corners of He Zhang's mouth twitched, somewhat understanding His Majesty's thoughts, what he said His Majesty didn't want to listen to, since His Majesty didn't want to listen, He Zhang shouldn't have said it.

He Zhang said loudly: "Your Majesty! The minister has a book to play! Today, all the ways are needed according to the month, so we can't draw them all day long."

"Zhao Gao and Li Si are cheating and greedy for power, and those who are obsessed with favors are also eager to be expensive. They all get close to the flesh and blood to become their fierce rebels!"

Zhao Gao and Li Sijiao ordered Huhai to be established, and the Great Qin died. This is the public opinion of the Ming Dynasty's historical outlook at this time.

Zhu Qiyu knew that He Zhang was going to talk about restoring the prime minister, and as expected, He Zhang was very opposed to it, and behind He Zhang was Yu Qian.

When Daming set up a chancellor again, Yu Qian was the first candidate, and since he himself was involved, it was difficult for him to stand up and say it, so He Zhang said it.

He Zhang's voice was a little louder, and he continued to speak loudly: "Huo Guang was entrusted by the swaddling baby, served as the host of the Han Dynasty, and the country, and the Sheji, but the pawn can't shelter his family, why?"

"A husband who is powerful and blessed is also the weapon of the emperor. The ministers hold it, and if they don't return it for a long time, they will destroy it.

It is true that Huo Guang abolished the emperor. After Huo Guang's death, the Huo Guang clan was wiped out. It is true that Huo Guang is indeed a powerful minister among powerful officials.

Therefore, the queen of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, who was deeply in love with the sword, was killed by Huo Guang's wife. Can the generation of heroes of Emperor Xuan of the Han endure this?

It can only be said that Huo Guang's daughter-in-law has lost Huo Guang's status.

He Zhang's voice echoed in the entire Fengtian Hall: "Cao Cao wanted to confuse Shiming, put an end to his words, took him in and killed him, and didn't wait to serve the country. Because of fate, he was accused of innocence; Chu and Chu were merged, and the five poisons were prepared; Feeling resigned, disregarding the constitution, coercing the emperor to make the princes."

"Three horses in the same trough, the wolf's ambition, everyone knows it, forced Cao Wei to give way and had no way to defend the world, the world was exhausted and withered for four hundred years!"

Cao Cao is a treacherous minister in the Ming Dynasty's drama, singing a bad face.

Sima Yi, the three brothers of the Sima family, are well known to all passers-by.

Everyone refers to this period of history as the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and rarely regards the Jin Dynasty as a unified dynasty, which is really a shame.

He Zhang continued: "Langya Wang Daoyin Gugai established the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the power is in the court!"

"Wang Dao assisted Wang Dun in a rebellion. Wang Dun invaded Jiankang. Emperor Jin and Yuan took off their military uniforms and wore court clothes. The gates of the palace were made of iron. The government orders did not come out of Yeting, and died in sorrow and anger!"

Emperor Sima Rui of the Jin and Yuan Dynasties reigned for six years, and his government orders did not leave the palace. The entire Eastern Jin emperor was a virtual emperor, and there were many powerful ministers. Liu Yu directly killed the entire Sima family.

He Zhang took half a step forward and continued: "Gao Huan punched the emperor three times, and said loudly, dog feet!"

"Yuwen protects and kills the three emperors, protects them against evil, try again and again, don't ask He Shizi!"

"Hu Yuan has only lived for a hundred years, and the Prime Minister has been in power for eighty years!"

"Your Majesty, I ask you to think twice. In the past, when Emperor Taizu Gao abolished the prime minister, the government was in turmoil, and the world was restless. In fact, we can learn from history!"

Since Kublai Khan proclaimed himself emperor, in less than 100 years, fourteen emperors have been changed, and the emperors have changed frequently.

He Zhang almost pointed at the emperor's nose and angrily reprimanded the emperor for wanting to set up a prime minister again, which is turning back the wheel of history!
"I believe in Shaobao." Zhu Qiyu said with a frown.

Without flinching, He Zhang said loudly: "Yu Shaobao doesn't exist often! There is only one person in 600 years!"

"Yang Shiqi is good at power, Wang Zhen is good at power, and Wang Ji is good at power. Your Majesty, please think twice!"

"Your Majesty, please think twice!" The courtiers who were halfway through the court knelt down on the ground and shouted in agreement.
