Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 473
The third year of Yingshi has quietly arrived. For many people, the first thing to pay attention to now is the spring that will start soon.

The Talent Ceremony is important to any dynasty, it is the same for the ruler, and it is also the same for civil and military officials.Especially for civil servant groups, they need a constant influx of fresh blood in order to strengthen their strength.

Even after the founding of the Ming Dynasty for more than [-] years, the strength of the civil official group seems to be growing continuously.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that the current civil servants don't talk about wrestling with the powerful emperor. Even when facing the Xungui Group, they are always on the weak side.

Civil officials can only think about the so-called rule of the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, or the emperor's bow.

Zhu Yunying is also in a good mood, probably because the government is going well.

After the court, Zhu Yunying arrived at the Wuying Hall, and Li Jinglong also came at this time.

"Your Majesty, Wuyuan is ready." Li Jinglong cut to the chase, and said to Zhu Yunying, "After the first month, Wuyuan will be able to enroll."

Zhu Yunying shook his head and said, "You don't need to wait until the end of the first month, let's celebrate New Year's Eve. Wuyuan's instructors and lecturers are all senior generals in the imperial court. You need to worry about how to manage their time."

As the manager of Martial Arts, Li Jinglong can be said to have a high position and authority.This is actually Wu Yuan's deputy chief, arguably the vice principal.The reason why it is not Wuyuan offering wine is, of course, because the military power can only belong to the emperor, and the emperor himself is responsible for offering wine.

In fact, Wu Yuan seems to have the same position as Guozijian, and also manages all faculty, staff and students below the doctorate level.For example, in charge of supervising seals and receiving documents, inspectors and servants each fulfill their duties and master books.Or a doctor in charge of teaching and teaching, etc.

It's just that the Guozijian side is a civil servant, and the Wuyuan side is naturally a general.

Li Jinglong also continued to say at this time, "Your Majesty, the Wuyuan has three departments: advanced, intermediate, and elementary."

"We know that." Zhu Yunying said with a smile, "Generals in the imperial court must rely on military merits. It's just that cousin Jiujiang has memorized it. If you encounter talents, you should also value them. There is no shortage of people who are good at fighting in the imperial court. It’s hard to find a handsome general.”

In fact, Zhu Yunying also knew that Lao Zhu was extremely serious about Wu Yuan.Even before that, Daming also had a 'Military Academy', but it was a little rudimentary and unsystematic.

But now Zhu Yunying has some more requirements. Not only does he need to cultivate some generals who are good at fighting, he also needs some handsome talents who can command the three armies.

Naturally, what is indispensable is the need for some "staff advisers" and military advisers, and some strategists who can have some strategic vision.

It would be a great thing to be able to lead troops to fight, but it is obviously not a good thing if they are all only able to lead troops to charge.The current Zhu Yunying actually has some concerns.

After all, Lan Yu and Fu Youde are among those who can command an army in the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that Lan Yu is not young anymore, and Fu Youde is an out-and-out veteran.How long can these two last, Zhu Yunying actually has some drums in his heart.

As for founding generals like Guo Ying and Geng Bingwen, age is one thing, but whether they can lead an army is another.

For example, Geng Bingwen, this is a veteran.It's just that the number of times he led the army alone is very few. When the fishing boat was victorious, Geng Bingwen was only one of Lan Yu's lieutenants.

The younger generation has Xu Huizu, who seems to be young.It's just that Xu Huizu is actually not young, he is 40 years old, which seems to be a prime age.It's just that at this age, I'm really not young anymore.

This is not a good thing. At the beginning, Lao Zhu had Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Tang He, Feng Sheng and many other handsome talents. Fu Youde, Lan Yu and others could hardly see any light at that time.

But now, the number of 'generals' in Zhu Yunying's hands is only a handful, and this is also one of his worries.

After all, in Zhu Yunying's plan, there are many places where he needs to use troops. He needs a general who can command thousands of troops.

After discussing with Li Jinglong about Wuyuan, Zhu Yunying didn't need to worry too much for the time being.The main reason is that many things in Wuyuan are basically formulated by Lao Zhu himself.

Zhu Yunying admired the old Zhu's ability to lead troops. They all said that Xu Da and Chang Yuchun were famous generals through the ages.Just don't think that Lao Zhu can't lead troops. If Lao Zhu hadn't become the emperor, he could also become a general who commanded thousands of troops and swept the world.

Yu Xin also came over at this time. There are some things that the Minister of the Household Department will not say in the court, and he needs to report to the emperor first.

Speaking of which, Yu Xin, the Minister of the Household Department, has had a hard time in the past two years. The emperor wanted to set up a bank before, and now he has to spread his income to the mu. All these things mean that the Minister of the Household Department needs to stay busy.

Although it required a lot of extra work because of the emperor's 'temporary idea', what Yu Xin couldn't ignore was naturally that he needed to do his job well as the Secretary of the Household Department.

"Qizou Your Majesty, I think Xia Yuanji can assist in the bank's promotion." Yu Xin spoke up, recommending a person he admired very much.

Xia Yuanji was almost 40 years old. He was born in a poor family and won the imperial examination ten years ago. He was then recommended by his hometown to enter Taixue, and was selected to write imperial edicts in the palace.After being appreciated by Lao Zhu, he was promoted to be the head of the household department. Because of his well-organized handling, Yu Xin also appreciated this "rising star".

Zhu Yunying nodded with a smile, and said, "We have heard of this Xia Yuanji. He is pure filial piety and upright, and he can be reused after some experience."

Yu Xin immediately said, "Your Majesty, Xia Yuanji participated in the formulation of the system in the previous discussion, and his suggestions are simple and easy to follow."

Zhu Yunying's eyes lit up, mainly because his position was too high.So even Xia Yuanji is somewhat famous in the court, but Zhu Yunying may not be able to see it directly.

To put it bluntly, it is "the heights are too cold", and the emperor Zhu Yunying is used to formulating big policies and strategies.Even the emperor who holds great power cannot really control the movements of every courtier.

Zhu Yunying became a little interested and asked, "Since that's the case, let's call Xia Yuanji into the palace. The person whom Aiqing praises so much must have some real talents."

This also made Yu Xin feel somewhat honored, even though he is the Minister of the Ministry of Households.It's just that among the six books, he belongs to the old officials left behind by Emperor Hongwu, not the emperor's confidantes like Ru Yu and Yan Zhenzhi.

He was even quite fortunate sometimes, if Zhuo Jing hadn't disobeyed his wishes at the beginning, maybe the Minister of the Household Department had changed.

And now that he has finally been recognized by the emperor, in the position of Hubu Shangshu, he can probably continue to do it and become a real important minister.Perhaps, it is also possible to retire safely in a few years and win fame both during and after his life.

In fact, Yu Xin is recommending Xia Yuanji now, apart from really appreciating Xia Yuanji, he also wants to leave a little bit of love behind.He knew that Xia Yuanji was talented and capable, and could become an important minister in the court.

If he can become Xia Yuanji's bole, even if he becomes an official in the future, he can still leave a little love for himself and his family.

A true saint does not exist, and it is normal to have some small thoughts of one's own.As long as it doesn't affect the government, the emperor can understand it if he wants to come.After all, it seems that Emperor Yingshi is not a particularly harsh emperor.

And even Emperor Hongwu, who seemed extremely strict, didn't care much about the "clique formation" of Li Shanchang, Yang Xian, Hu Weiyong and others at the beginning.

What's more, he is not forming a party for personal gain now, so naturally he doesn't need to worry about making the emperor unhappy.

With the emergence of talents, Zhu Yunying is naturally happy.As an emperor, no matter how wise and powerful he is, it is impossible for him to do everything well by himself, and he still needs the assistance of many civil and military ministers.

What's more, Zhu Yunying also has some self-knowledge. His greatest advantage is that he has a 'long-term vision' and knows some historical trends.

But this does not mean that Zhu Yunying knows everything, or that he is such a genius.Even though many people outside continued to praise him, whether it was sincere or false, it seemed that Zhu Yunying was already a wise king of a generation.

Fortunately, Zhu Yunying has some self-knowledge, he is not so narcissistic, he is not carried away by such flattery.

It seems that the Ming Dynasty has not yet emerged more handsome talents, but at this time an excellent candidate for the "Hubu Shangshu" appeared again, which obviously made Zhu Yunying feel more satisfied and looking forward to it.

Especially according to Yu Xin's recommendation, this Xia Yuanji has some experience in economics, which also made Zhu Yunying look forward to it even more.

The Ming Dynasty, or the past dynasties did not lack some economists.It's just that in the traditional Confucian culture, more scholars are not necessarily 'economists', which can be regarded as something Zhu Yunying regrets.

But the current Xia Yuanji, according to Yu Xin, is able to manage the affairs of the bank, and has also participated in the formulation and improvement of the policy of sharing the land into the mu. This is obviously the talent Zhu Yunying needs, so he has to take a good look.

What's more, Xia Yuanji was in charge of inspecting prisons and inspecting prefectural and county officials' interview envoy, and he also had good results.

This makes Zhu Yunying even more satisfied and looking forward to it. It seems that this is a "rising star" prepared for him, and maybe he can become Zhu Yunying's important minister in the next few years and decades.

Even if the current Xia Yuanji is only at the fifth rank.

Xia Yuanji, who had a good face, was right when he came to the Hall of Martial Arts.In ancient times, there were still certain requirements for the appearance of an official, and it was difficult for the emperor to look up to those who were crooked.

"Xia Yuanji, the Minister of Fujian Qingli Division of the Minister's Household Department, pays his respects to His Majesty the Emperor."

Zhu Yunying raised her hand with a smile, "Get flat."
