The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 309 Close the Door, Enlarge the Sun
A proposal that touched [-]% of the interests of the entire Daming officialdom, and even had an impact on the entire Daming landlord and gentry class.

And such a move, in the current court, no one came out to speak?

At this point, even Zhu Yuanzhang was a little surprised.

Even if he rashly raised such a thing, the officials in the court who pretend to be lofty will never give in.

These officials could not reach their current status without the support of the clan behind them, and at the same time they also needed to maintain the interests of the clan.

In the words of some officials, even if the body dies, the world must be preserved.

In the current Fengtian Temple, there is a strange tranquility.

It was the first time that words such as falling to the ground and smelling the needle would appear in Fengtian Temple.

After half a stick of incense, after Zhu Ying finished speaking, there was no reaction from below, and Zhu Yuanzhang was also happy to watch the excitement.

At this moment, Liu Sanwu is under tremendous pressure.

He wanted to say something, but his mouth squirmed for a while, but found that he didn't know how to say it.

The eloquence of the past seems to have completely disappeared.

It is true that the momentum was suppressed too badly.

What happened just now has not come to an end, His Highness the Grandson threw out such a big thunder, if there is a loophole in what he said, then he will really die.

Liu Sanwu is not afraid of death, he has nothing to fear at such an old age.

But he was afraid that his reputation would be ruined for the rest of his life.

He could tell that His Majesty the Grandson was just as good as His Majesty. What's more, His Majesty probably dragged him out to execute him.

But His Highness Taisun, he is completely murderous.

Literati are most afraid of this. If they cannot stand on the commanding heights of morality and die, then death will be meaningless to them.

Seeing that it was almost time for a stick of incense, Zhu Yuanzhang saw that no one had spoken yet. After thinking for a while, he said: "It seems that the grandson's idea is also very approved by the lovers."

"Since this is the case, we will write a document later to announce the changes in this matter to the world, and then we can quickly gather talents from all over the world to improve this matter together."

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang said this, the officials below couldn't sit still.

"The minister has to play." Immediately, an official from the Ministry of Rites, without even having time to make the unspoken rules such as coughing, went out of the class and bowed.

The bystanders were also greatly relieved when they saw someone standing up.

No one thought that His Royal Highness would succeed in this matter. Even those officials who entered the imperial examination did not want to see such a situation.

Before becoming an official through the imperial examination, they were naturally very supportive of such a proposal, but now they are already members of the powerful class, and their interests are completely different.

Officials who can enter the official ranks, no one can guarantee that their offspring will be the same as themselves.

No matter how great the power is, if it can't bless future generations, it will lose a lot of taste.

They are already a member of vested interests, and they also hope that even if their descendants are slightly inferior, they will have many opportunities to become officials. Even if they cannot reach their own heights, at least they can be passed down from official to official.

"Prelude!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said directly.

He didn't think he had any challenge, but the ministers didn't respond to Dasun's actions. There was something that made him think that Dasun was talking about it, as if he was on the side of the officials.

Now that someone has finally come forward, let him speak boldly.

The one from the Ministry of Rites who spoke up was not a petty official, but a third-rank official servant.

Put aside whether to kill or not, let's see how Dasun responds.

The officials who were allowed bowed to His Majesty and His Royal Highness Taisun and said: "The imperial examination system started in the Sui Dynasty and flourished in the Tang Dynasty. The direction has not changed."

"I set up the imperial examination in the dynasty and selected the world's scholars. From the third year of Hongwu to the seventeenth of Hongwu, it was announced to the world and the "Imperial Examination Form" was established."

"For scholars all over the world, the imperial examinations held once every three years are preparations for ten years of hard study, but now that they are being reformed rashly, the hard work of many students will be ruined in one go."

"Now Hongwu is 25 years old. Last year's imperial examination, the next imperial examination will be next year. Now most of the students have studied the scriptures according to the "Imperial Examination Form". If a new imperial examination system is appointed this year, these students should how."

"The scriptures they studied hard for suddenly became useless, and there are more new classics to learn. For many students, the situation that was originally stable has become turbulent."

"I was a Jinshi in Hongwu for 18 years. When I think of the hardships of the year, I can't help but feel sad for these students."

"My minister dares to say that according to His Royal Highness, it seems that many subjects will be taught at once. How to deal with these students must be flustered all at once."

"A great future has been ruined just like that."

"I don't dare to represent the students of the world, but I just want to ask His Majesty the grandson to be cautious. If this kind of thing affects the reform of the Ming Dynasty, it is best to be cautious."

The minister of the Ministry of Rites is naturally afraid of death, and he has already become a young bird, so he naturally needs to protect himself more.

If something goes wrong, being rejected by His Majesty, or His Highness, I'm afraid it will be very sad in the days to come.

In terms of words, it can be regarded as thinking for a long time.

Now this kind of rhetoric can not only serve as a leader in persuasion, but also can retreat completely.

In the court hall during the Hongwu period, the grass on the graves of the top officials was three feet high, and those who could survive did not have a few brushes.

Among other things, at least in terms of being cautious in words and deeds, each of them is extremely good.

The words of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials were tantamount to directing the blame to Zhu Ying.

Many officials are also looking forward to it. In their feelings, it is obviously difficult for His Royal Highness to refute it forcefully.

No matter which direction you look at it, it is easy to stand on the opposite side of the world's scholars.

In this great world, after all, it is still up to literati to govern.

Zhu Yuanzhang also felt a little tricky when he heard this.

But he doesn't care, anyway, if he opposes his literati and officials, he can find a way to kill them.

I can't kill you in the court, but can't kill you in the court?

As the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty from a beggar to today, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about some methods at all, otherwise there would be no Jinyiwei Prison.

Turning his gaze to Dasun, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to see how Dasun would deal with these officials now.

Zhu Ying smiled slightly, without the slightest pressure, and asked, "The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the etiquette, sacrifices, and tributes of the world. I don't know where Zhang Shilang worked before entering the Ministry of Rites."

Zhang Shilang was shocked when he heard this.

His Highness Taisun directly said his surname, which shows that His Highness Taisun knew him a long time ago, and he might have read his relevant files at Jin Yiwei.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shilang became more cautious, and followed the words of His Royal Highness Taisun, and replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, I served as the head of the Ministry of Industry earlier. In the 23rd year of Hongwu, with His Majesty's grace, I was transferred to the Ministry of Officials as a servant."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Shilang bowed in return, not daring to say more.

The more you say the more you make mistakes, the easier it is to be caught in the braid.

Zhu Ying nodded, and then said: "Since that's the case, I would like to ask Zhang Shilang. The Ministry of Industry is in charge of construction. When Zhang Shilang first joined the Ministry of Industry, he was already in charge. Regarding the matter of construction, before entering the job, do you have any advice?" I have heard it, or I have worked hard to study it.”

Hearing this question, Zhang Shilang hesitated for a while and replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, I have never studied it. I only started to understand everything after I joined the job."

In front of His Majesty the Grandson, in this Fengtian Palace, Zhang Shilang dared not lie, but this kind of thing happened to almost all officials, so it was no big deal.

Zhu Ying nodded again and asked: "Then after Zhang Shilang was transferred from the Ministry of Industry to the Ministry of Rites, he had a good understanding of Chinese and foreign etiquette, foreign ministers' writing, and language before."

Zhang Shilang shook his head again and said, "I never understood."

Zhu Ying paused slightly this time, and a bad premonition had already arisen in Zhang Shilang's heart.

Sure enough, the next moment, the sharp counterattack from His Royal Highness Taisun had already arrived.

"As the saying goes, governing a big country is like cooking a small dish. If officials are compared to cooks, then the way of governing is equivalent to the process of cooking."

"When Zhang Shilang went to be the cook, he didn't even know how to hold the pot and spoon, and he couldn't even control the heat. At this time, as the chief executive, he encountered matters and problems related to the Ministry of Industry and needed to make up his mind. when."

"Then how did Zhang Shilang deal with it at that time? Or did he follow others' advice and follow the advice of his subordinates."

"That's it. If something goes wrong in this matter, who will be held accountable?"

"If you let Zhang Shilang take the responsibility, you must feel uncomfortable. After all, Zhang Shilang doesn't understand anything. It's like trying to catch ducks to the shelves. It's entirely a subordinate's problem."

"Is that so, Zhang Shilang?"

Zhu Ying looked at Zhang Shilang slightly sharply and asked.

This caused cold sweat to break out on Zhang Shilang's forehead. He had never been asked this kind of question, nor had he thought about it.

However, he was a little dissatisfied in his heart. Which of the officials in the court didn't come here like this, and he, Zhang Shilang, was just following the crowd, so why should he be reprimanded by His Highness Taisun alone.

At this moment, Zhu Ying seemed to have heard Zhang Shilang's thoughts, and did not force Zhang Shilang to answer, but instead said: "Such things have become a common phenomenon in today's court."

"Ministers, it's already commonplace, and it's not surprising."

"But if you think about it carefully, is it really a good thing for someone who doesn't understand anything to suddenly take charge of these things?"

"I really want to ask, in today's court, how many officials know the things they are responsible for. This is equivalent to, after changing an official position, the experience, knowledge, and Have to do it all over again."

"If you learn quickly, naturally you won't waste much time. Maybe you can control it in a few months, but not everyone can do it. In this way, isn't it a vegetarian meal?"

"Zhang Shilang, do you think there is some truth in what I said, or if you think you have other suggestions, you might as well speak up and listen."

Facing His Highness Taisun's questioning, Zhang Shilang's back felt a little cold, his throat rolled several times, and then he replied respectfully: "Your Highness is right."

In fact, Zhang Shilang still wanted to refute a few words, but after thinking about it, he found that His Highness seems to know this very well, and he can directly point to this point, and it is not something that can be fooled by just a few words.

In desperation, he had no choice but to agree.

After Zhu Ying glanced at Zhang Shilang, she turned her gaze to the officials.

After glancing around for a while, he asked, "If any minister has any thoughts on what Cai Bengong said just now, you can boldly raise it and discuss it together."

Many ministers were speechless in the face of His Highness Taisun's rather tit-for-tat remarks.

Even Liu Sanwu, and various ministers, after thinking in their hearts, suddenly discovered that what His Royal Highness Taisun said directly hit the root of the officialdom.

There is no way to refute this, because this has always been a hidden danger in officialdom.

It is true that it is also possible to turn in a different direction and attack His Royal Highness's solution, but in this case, it would be too direct.

The present His Majesty the Grandson seemed to be arguing, but in fact he showed his sharpness, and His Majesty who was always smiling behind him.

No one, the old and the young, had the guts. Zhang Shilang dared to make a detour, and he was already admired by many officials.

And at this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the grandson's sideways, and the high aura now, and a word suddenly popped up in his mind: "Talk against the Confucians."

Such a big grandson is really very comfortable.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt that he had relaxed a lot. In the future, what officials said would make him uncomfortable, so he closed the door and enlarged Sun.

It must be able to convince many ministers.

At this time, Zhu Ying, no matter what kind of poor gangsters are not to chase, they will naturally pursue and beat him fiercely.

Seeing that he didn't speak anymore, he said directly: "The advantage of the imperial examination classification selection is that it can largely avoid such shortcomings, and for students, there are more directions to choose."

"As the saying goes, what makes perfect, if you have been doing something for a long time, you will naturally become more familiar with it, and you will become more professional, and your knowledge will be deeper."

"In my opinion, the trend of imperial examination classification should be sooner rather than later, especially in the field of elementary school. I think that in addition to the text, illustrations should be added, with pictures and texts, so that children will be more interested."

"For elementary illustrations, we should summon painters from all over the world to Beijing, and choose the best ones.".
As Zhu Ying stood on the forbidden golden palace, she kept talking about the arrangements related to the classification of the imperial examinations after the early dynasty.

The courtiers below felt a general trend.

Just listening to his words, one can feel very clearly that His Highness the Grandson has been planning this matter for a long time, and the details are very clear, and it is not something that can be figured out in a short while.

As the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty, under the shadow of His Majesty's majesty, such a major event as the reform of the imperial examination is imperative, and nothing can stop it.

The small thoughts in the hearts of many officials slowly settled down as His Highness Taisun continued to tell.

If you have reached this point, if you object again, you will be looking for a dead end.

When the court dispersed early, Zhu Ying led Zhu Yunwen and went straight to the Dali Temple Secretary to arrange legal matters.

Things like the laws of the Ming Dynasty have always been the words of the royal family, and there is no need to discuss them at court meetings.

When the new Ming law comes out, the officials only need to abide by it.

In Fengtian Square, many ministers went to their departments one after another.

And Zhu Di's complexion was a little livid.
