Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1538 New Deal: Dark War!
After the first snowfall, the sun came out for another two days, and then a heavy snowfall came suddenly, dyeing Yudu in snow white in an instant.

Yudu has completely entered winter, and every household has started to put on thick winter clothes. In the streets and alleys, some children can be seen happily playing with the snow.

This kind of joyful sound also indicates that the life in Yudu is getting better and better. The laughter of children is a kind of improvement of living standards.

Mujing likes to stand on a high place and look at the prosperous scene on the street. Only in this way can he satisfy his sense of accomplishment, and also satisfy his vanity of arrogance and overlooking the world.

The construction of this nine-storey Daming Palace satisfied him very much.

He withdrew his gaze from looking down the street, and his eyes fell on the playbook in his hand, which was reported by the Department of Education.

"Please open the imperial examination!" "

Shi Xie is worthy of being a disciple of the Great Confucianism, his writing style is outstanding, and his writings are like hype.

This memorial directly passed through the Zhengshitang, and then it was presented to Zhaoming Pavilion, and then from Zhaoming Pavilion, it was placed on his desk.

The process is over.

But the result didn't come out.

At this moment in Zhaoming Pavilion, no one dared to express their opinion.

And the ministers from all walks of life are waiting for Mu Jing's attitude. No matter what Mu Jing's thoughts are, he hasn't shown his attitude for a day, and no one dares to act rashly.

To put it bluntly, you want people to fight for you, at least, you have to let people know that you have an attitude, an extremely firm attitude.

After all, others are not the roundworms in your heart, guesses are guesses after all, if you don't express your opinion, they won't dare to stand up for a day.

As for Mu Jing, how dare he express his position so easily.

This incident, whether it is big or small, is the beginning of a new policy. The second phase of the new policy is not partial in the first phase, but comprehensive.

There is bound to be a storm in the Ming court.

As for whether the storm will cause the Ming court to fall into civil strife, no one knows, and everyone is trying to avoid it.

Before the voting meeting in Zhaoming Pavilion, Mu Jing called Hu Zhao.

Do not ventilate with him.

It's a bit troublesome to do things by yourself, at least you have to explore his bottom line, so that it will be more convenient for Mujing to handle this matter.

"Kong Ming, this is a suggestion from the Education Department. What do you think?"

Mu Jing asked in a gentle voice.

But Hu Zhao cursed secretly in his heart: This majesty is getting more and more thick-skinned. It is clearly his own idea, but he speaks in such a high-sounding manner.

But even if he is unhappy, this superficial harmony still has to be maintained. The power of the sky is unpredictable. Even if he has great power, he dare not act presumptuously, so he must be careful.

Because he didn't want to be liquidated in his later years.

He thought for a while, and said: "The Department of Education suddenly played this performance, and his heart should be for the court to promote talents. Regardless of the outcome of this matter, first of all, we must not disappoint the sincerity of the Department of Education!"

He laid the ground first, and then continued: "However, the system of promoting talents is a system that has been passed down for hundreds of years. If you change it rashly, I am afraid that it will endanger the country of the Ming Dynasty. Now the Ming dynasty has been established for too short a period, and the foundation is not good enough. Be steady, if there is chaos among the people, the hearts of the people will be lost!"

He was telling Mujing that the system of promoting talents needs to be changed, but you'd better think about the result. If the result is too bad, don't blame me for being ruthless and destroying your New Deal.

As for Mu Jing's character, Hu Zhao actually had a good understanding of it.

This man is not selfish.

But aiming at the overall situation of the world.

You say he is stingy, he is also stingy, you say he is magnanimous, he is also magnanimous, stand on the ground, no matter what you do, as long as you don’t touch his bottom line, even if you spit in front of him, At most, he just scolded a few words, but he couldn't take it seriously.

But there are some things, if he wants to do it, who dares to stop him, it is not a matter of benevolence and morality, but a bloody storm.

Mujing's knife killed many people.

"Your Majesty, today's Ming Dynasty is not stable, and the world has not yet been unified. How many wolves outside are looking down on us, we can't take it lightly!"

Hu Zhao is earnest, he still does not approve of Mujing's aggressiveness, and wants Mujing to ease the pace of the New Deal, which will be good for everyone, and he will also be able to talk to those aristocratic families, gentry scholars, and always let the Ming court Maintaining a scene of peaceful development can support the main force of the Ming army to unify the world. Only after the unification of the world, Ming has no enemies, can it concentrate on governing the interior.

"Ha ha!"

Mu Jing smiled, he understood what Hu Zhao meant, but he couldn't do it according to Hu Zhao's mind, some things, timing is very important.

And he understands a truth that if you worry too much about everything, you will never be able to do it. Now you say you want to maintain a peaceful scene so that you can concentrate and dominate the world.

But after you rule the world, you will find that your resistance is even greater. The southwest is the southwest after all, not the center of the Central Plains, but a corner.

The power of Shilin is less than half that of the Central Plains. If even the Southwest cannot get through, the world will be unified in the future, and the obstacles we will face will be even greater.

"Although Daming's country is still very young, it is full of vitality!" Mu Jing looked at Hu Zhao calmly, smiled, and said, "If we have so many scruples in doing things now, then in the future the court will The system is perfect, there are more and more officials, more and more gentry, how can we do things!"

Hu Zhao frowned when he heard this, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything, sometimes he had to admit that what Mu Jing said was right.

"Call the ministers participating in politics and open the Zhaoming meeting!" Mu Jing said firmly.

In just a few words, he has touched Hu Zhao's bottom line. If Hu Zhao maintains this bottom line, he will definitely succeed in the imperial examination.

"Yes!"

Hu Zhao was helpless, he had tried his best to persuade him, but Mujing would not listen, so he had no choice but to do so, since Mujing wanted to rush forward, he could only minimize the harm caused by this matter.

........................

Zhaoming Pavilion, Conference Hall.

Zhaoming's participation in politics from the seven seats has now become nine seats, and Mu Jing is in a high position. He has a noble status, and joining the cabinet to participate in politics is more a matter of image.

If he is not in Zhaoming Pavilion, he is afraid that he will not be able to control Zhaoming Pavilion, so he cannot maintain his identity.

Although this is a bit unruly, Mu Jing has done unruly things for countless times, and now he is familiar with them.

Besides, he was the one who established the Ming Dynasty, and his Mujing is the rule.

Mu Jing didn't speak first, so Hu Zhao could only speak on his behalf. He was the head of all the ministers, and he was basically the one who presided over the meeting. He threw out the playbook of the Education Department for all the ministers to have a look at.

"The imperial examination?"

"Can this system really change the current situation?"

"If this is released, it will definitely cause an uproar!"

"The system of promoting filial piety and honesty is somewhat insufficient, but can the imperial examination be fair? Not necessarily. Some people can control the quota for promoting filial piety and integrity, and some people will control the imperial examination!"

"I'm afraid that when the time comes, our Daming will finally stabilize the situation and collapse directly!"

All the ministers who participated in politics had more or less things in their hearts that they didn't want to say. At this moment, their moods seemed very complicated.

Whether to support or not to support is not such a simple matter. On the one hand, you have to consider what problems you will encounter when this matter is carried out, and on the other hand, you also have to worry about your own position and status.

Being able to sit on this stool, they are now the people who can be the masters of the Ming court, and every minister who participates in politics is the backbone of the Ming Dynasty.

"His Majesty!"

Cai Yong was the first to speak. If he didn’t speak, no one would question Mujing. Now that Mujing is the emperor, the saying that being with a king is like being with a tiger is the same everywhere. The awe of Mujing is never because of his Kind without the slightest weakening.

But Cai Yong is different, as Mujing's father-in-law, he has a different natural status, even if he scolds Mujing directly in front of everyone, there will be no problem.

If Mu Jing dared to clean him up, Cai Yan wouldn't have to clean up the house.

"Cai Shenzheng, please tell me!" Mu Jing had to remind the old guy that this is Zhaoming Pavilion, not at home, so don't make me feel bad, or I will have trouble with you.

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about how many people survive by holding the number of filial piety and honesty? Once the system is changed, will these people become disgusted with Your Majesty!"

Cai Yong's voice is calm, he discusses the matter based on facts, and does not make personal attacks, standing in his position, this is something that must be considered, this matter is inevitable, but Mujing must know the severity of it, This is one of their strategies.

"These people you are talking about, who are they?" Mu Jing asked solemnly.

"Shilin!"

Cai Yong took a deep breath: "The policy of filial piety and honesty has been passed down for hundreds of years. Aristocratic families, some great Confucians with great reputations in the field, and officials in the court all have power. Scholars have studied hard for many years. Someone must take care of themselves. Filial piety and honesty are likely to attract the attention of the imperial court. They will be grateful when they become officials, govern the localities, and manage the people. Therefore, they are often called by the name of master and apprentice. The relationship between master and apprentice is a godsend, even more blood. Entanglement, but someone has deprived all of this, how can those people let it go in their hearts!"

He almost didn't tell Mu Jing directly that you broke the jobs of countless people. Those highly respected scholars in Shilin depended on this for a living.

"Shilin is also a member of the world!"

Mujing's voice was very calm: "I am quite grateful to the scholars of my Ming Dynasty. Their existence has made my Ming Dynasty have many scholars, but people have selfishness. How can selfishness be tolerated if only talents are promoted?" !"

Mujing is over.

He went off the field directly, just to show his attitude.

As soon as the attitude comes out.

The whole scene looks much better.

At this time, it is time to go shirtless.

The first one to respond was naturally Kuai Liang. He now understood his identity. As Mu Jing's sword in the New Deal, he had to be a lonely minister and not afraid of offending others.

He said directly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I think this is a very good thing for the Education Department. There are so many scholars in the world, but official positions are nothing more than that. Being an official is not a power, but a responsibility. How can it be because of a good relationship? If you have a good reputation, you will be able to promote filial piety and honesty to enter the official career. I believe that the method of imperial examinations is very fair. Selecting talents for Ming Dynasty and governing the region is also for the benefit of the people of the world!"

His firepower was everywhere, and he exploded at this time, never giving anyone a chance, and his voice became louder and louder: "Besides, a mediocre official can make the people suffer, and a talented official can let the people enjoy happiness, and serve the people of the world at dawn." , why be afraid of the benefits of scholars, scholars, not for welfare, but for the people of the world, that's the point!"

Mu Jing listened and couldn't help but smile, this Kuai Liang was really not easy, he captured Dayi as soon as he came up, it was Hu Zhao and the others' choice at this time.

To protect the interests of scholars, or to stand above the interests of the common people.

There is no impenetrable wall in the world. The content of this meeting will definitely be spread directly in a short time. If they dare to act recklessly, they will definitely be spit on by countless people.

And they were sure that Mu Jing would fight against Zhang Yang, and they would never give them the slightest chance to fight back. As long as they dared to admit it, Mu Jing would dare to make them notorious.

The battle between the monarch and his ministers has already kicked off early in the morning. Whether the monarch's power is stronger or the minister's power can suppress the monarch's prestige, it depends on their next fight.

Hu Zhao and Cai Yong looked at each other.

They knew that, in fact, from the very beginning, they had nowhere to go. If they really wanted to break up with Mu Jing at this time, it might not be pretty, but it would damage Daming Jiangshan's reputation.

Infighting, speaking out is never a good thing.

So they have discussed it long ago, and at this time, they need to do the opposite.

Hu Zhao gave Liu Jin a look.

Liu Jin nodded, then stood up, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, what Kuai Yushi said is true, and I also think that the system of promoting filial piety and honesty is flawed and easily influenced by others. Talented people govern the world, and ministers agree with the imperial examination system!"

"The minister also agrees!"

Qin Song narrowed his eyes slightly, he must keep up with the rhythm at this time.

"I have no objection!" Bao Su is a newcomer, he has to be conservative.

"The minister agrees!"

Xi Zhicai had confidence in Mu Jing, but he was amazed at Hu Zhao and his team's methods. It seemed that Mu Jing had won this battle, but Mu Jing should be the most aggrieved.

The feeling of punching a fist and hitting the cotton directly will definitely make you feel aggrieved.

"The minister agrees!"

Huang Zhong smiled. Although he has heels, his family has fallen when he was young, like a son from a poor family, he naturally knows how difficult it is for a scholar from a poor family to become an official.

Only Mu Jing, Hu Zhao, and Cai Yong are left.

Mujing's complexion is very bad.

He glanced at Hu Zhao and Cai Yong with gloomy eyes. These two old men are really good at staying alive. They actually taught him a lesson and slapped him directly.

Cai Yong said calmly: "The public opinion is already so, and I have nothing to say, but I reserve my opinion!"

"For Daming, I am willing to give it a try!"

Hu Zhao spoke leisurely.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the overall situation was settled.
