Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 651
Qi Biaojia felt that the emperor was becoming more and more arbitrary.

With the continuous victories of the Northern Expedition, even the Tartars have been wronged to the point where the emperor's personal prestige has indeed reached its peak.

Thinking of the emperor's speech against Donglin in Guozijian, he became more and more uneasy.

Zhu Yihai leaned back against his body.

Silence for a while.

Then he got up and walked slowly.

"There is a saying in Han Feizi that is very good, the official of the husband and the master, the prime minister must be from the state department, and the general must be sent to the army. This is very good. Without solid grassroots experience, it is difficult to handle government affairs and lead troops in battle. It may be talking about military affairs on paper, and empty talk is harmful to the country.

At the beginning, Gu Donglin also repeatedly emphasized not to talk about fantasy.

Since I raised my army, from the east of Zhejiang to the south of the Yangtze River, countless country gentlemen have revolted generously. I admire this loyalty and righteousness, and it is really strong.

Recently, however, I have also discovered some problems. Although everyone is loyal and generous, when dealing with specific affairs, they are often inexperienced and too vague.

I talked in the Guozijian earlier and pointed out that some people have ruined Donglin's reputation, but these are just a small number of black sheep who deceive the world.

The vast majority of civil servants and scholars are relatively strong, but doing things for officials is different from writing poems and Fu. You must have solid experience before you can do things well, especially after you are in a high position in the court. Any decision will affect the world. Hundreds of millions of people cannot afford to be sloppy.

In the past few years, our ZTE business has been relatively smooth, but many problems have also been exposed. Many officials are still too young and lack sufficient experience. Hard work, regardless of life, running for the country, indeed made a lot of credit.

But now we have to face many problems in governing the world. Loyalty alone is not enough, we also need to have enough experience. After thinking about it, I think we should let everyone experience more. "

Xu Shiqi also felt a little bad when he heard this.

Is the emperor trying to reprimand Dong Lin?

But before he could figure out how to make a sound, the emperor changed the subject again.

I have heard such a story before. In the spring of the 16th year of Chongzhen, Hou Tong and his mother went to Jiahu branch to inspect the road, and relatives Yang Tingshu, Hou Qizeng and other sons accompanied him all the way to Wujiang.

At night, everyone talked about what kind of death is better.

Hou Tong once said, I have heard stagnant water is good, while Hou Qizeng said that I do not know what hot oil empowerment tastes like.When it was Yang Tingshu's turn, he asked his nephew Hou Xuanfang.Xuanfang replied that we should see clearly the issue of death, and don’t miss the opportunity of death. Water, fire, knife and saw, all planned clearly. At that time, it should be fierce and then it should be fierce, and it should be chic and unrestrained. This is the end of my life. Body, not to humiliate relatives, do not doubt what you believe in, and do not retreat when you advance.

After hearing this, Yang Tingshu asked all the Hou family sons, and everyone agreed with what your brother said.

Ru Cao can?Everyone said they could do it.

The next day, Hou Tong told his mother about the conversation, she expressed her appreciation, and also shared her opinion, thinking that stagnant water is cleaner. "

The emperor suddenly said such a remark, and everyone was secretly surprised.

Especially Xu Shiqi, he, Hou Dongzeng, and Chen Hongmi were collectively called the Sanqing of the Southern Capital. Hou was born in the Hou family of Zidi, Jiading. .

After the fall of Beijing, Zhu Yousong took up the post of Zuo Tongzheng, but refused to go due to illness. Later, in his hometown in Jiading, he and Huang Chunyao led brothers, nephews and others to revolt against the Qing Dynasty.His relative Yang Tingshu is the grandson of Yang Cheng, Shangshu of the Ministry of War in Nanjing, and the leader of Fushe.

Hou Yang's family raised their banners in the uprising and greeted Master Wang. In the past few years, they have also made great contributions to the dragon, and their children have held many important positions.

Hou Dongzeng, Yang Tingshu, Huang Chunyao, etc. all served as ministers, and Qi Zeng and others also served as Langzhong in the ministry.

"Hou Dongzeng, Yang Tingshu and others were able to calmly talk about life and death when the country was in turmoil, which showed that life and death had long been ignored. Nanjing was established, and Hou Gong once rejected the post of Sanpinzuo Tongzheng granted by Nanjing. It is commendable to stand up, gather troops to revolt, lead troops to attack the Tartars, rescue cities and villages, and welcome the king's division."

The emperor suddenly mentioned the Hou family. In fact, it was mainly because the brothers of the Hou family were named Guangsheng. They are all giants of Fushe.

The Hou family also has a very good relationship with the Gu Xianzheng brothers and others.

It can be said that Donglin and Fushe were originally the gentry in Jiangnan and Zhejiang, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang were their base camps.At the beginning of Zhu Yihai's uprising, he also had a lot of support from Jiangsu and Zhejiang gentry, so now in the court, Jiangsu and Zhejiang gentry occupy a lot of positions.

In particular, many younger generation of scholars from Jiangsu and Zhejiang have gradually risen to high positions.

Compared with the old Donglins such as Huang Daozhou, Xu Shiqi, Hou Zengtong, Jiang Yueguang, Gao Hongtu, etc., the new generation of Donglins is obviously very different.

The old Donglins are changeable and more pragmatic, and they don't even care about party affiliation that much, they are like the light.

But those young Dong Lin are different. They are young and proud, but they like to give impassioned satire on current affairs and point out the country. They even start to fight against dissidents, and they are very good at using newspapers and other public opinion to build momentum.

In fact, there are quite a few down-and-out scholars like Shen Wenzhong who rebelled from the dragon, and then held high positions and held important positions. However, these people started from the bottom. Although they climbed quickly, they were indeed eliminated through layers of elimination.

And those sons from famous families, especially those from noble families, followed their fathers and brothers in the Conglong uprising, granted Juren a Jinshi background, and directly served in the Central Committee, so they were in the fifth and sixth grade positions at a young age, and they didn't have much real experience. .

Now it is still starting to engage in party disputes, and even feels that the old Donglins are dying, and they want to take over the banner.

"They are all loyal and virtuous, with a long history of family education, but they just lack some experience."

Zhu Yihai finally revealed his real purpose.

"Nowadays, there are many young talents from famous families who have traveled and experienced in the central government for several years, but they still lack practical experience at the local grassroots level.

The ancients said that the prime minister must start from the state, and the strong general must be sent from the army. They will go further and stand higher in the future. This grassroots experience is indispensable.

Otherwise, it will slowly become superficial and fall into empty talk.

I don't want these hot-blooded young handsome men to waste their blood in the capital in the Ministry, so after thinking about it for a long time, I decided to give them more opportunities, let them go down to take on important responsibilities, take charge of one party, and have a solid experience. "

"Not only must you have the upper-level experience of the Minister of the Ministry of the Capital, but you must also have the experience of working in the lower states and counties. The doctor of the Ministry has been working for a long time, and you also need to be the chief official in the prefecture and county. This is completely different. The way of doing things, only through more comprehensive experience, can you become a minister or a bachelor in the future."

The emperor threw out the final plan directly.

He planned to send [-] young handsome men from the central government and the provincial vassals to the local grassroots for training.

These thousand handsome young men are basically the disciples of those famous families, especially those from Donglin Fushe, ranging from the extremely famous Fourth Young Master, such as Hou Fangyu's masquerading as Fang Yizhi, Chen Zhenhui, down to Xuanyan Xuanjie of the Hou family. Xuanfang Xuanxun, Chen Zilong, Xia Yunyi, and others are the children of the giants of Donglin Fushe.

Most of them are the pedestrians, the editors of the Hanlin Academy, or the sages, or the heads of various ministries, etc., and they are already in the affairs of the government, the supervisory censor, Yuanwailang, and doctor. This group of people In terms of academic ability, they are actually not bad. Basically, they all have the fame of scholars in the Chongzhen Dynasty, and some even have the fame of juren.

Of course, there are also some who are not young, such as Gu Xianzheng, who have been magistrates before.

This time, Zhu Yihai planned to send them down to practice.

Hou Fangyu, the fourth son of the third rank and the sixth division palm print, went directly to Taiwan and served as the co-prefects of the four prefectures in Taiwan. He was the fifth rank. Originally, Zhu Yihai planned to let them be the magistrates, but after thinking about it, he changed it to the assistant second official. Know, and not the first co-knowledge, but the second co-knowledge.

He also considered or simply changed the two acquaintances as Chang Shi and Sima, and let him go down as Sima.

Except for these four highly prestigious four sons who went to Taiwan as the second acquaintances.

There are also hundreds of officials of the fourth and fifth ranks who served in the imperial court as Shizhong, Yushi, etc., and this time they will also be demoted to various places to serve as co-prefects, all of whom are second co-prefects.

Tongzhi is the prefect's second assistant, in charge of local salt and grain capture, piracy of rivers, prevention of coastal river engineering and water conservancy, and clearance of military registrations by Fusui people and barbarians.

This is the real council officer, and he will be faced with a bunch of specific chores.

This group of officials went to serve as co-prefects in various places, and Zhu Yihai directly sent those outside the officials to serve as county magistrates. They were basically the second county magistrates, or the county magistrates stationed abroad.

Even the lower eighth and ninth grade officials, this time, will be directly transferred to the local government to directly serve as deputy township chief and deputy mayor.

"If you don't go to the prefectures and counties, how can you really get out of the experience, and how will you be in charge of the ministry in the future, or even enter the cabinet to assist in the government? I am full of expectations for these young handsome men, and I don't want them to waste their youth and fighting spirit in the capital's ministry. When they go to the local area, they are really responsible for a specific matter, work hard, work hard, roll up their sleeves and work hard, and make some real achievements. Even when formulating politics, it will not be empty and divorced from the people."

"I used to do the same with the officers and soldiers of the imperial camp. Excellent soldiers at the grassroots level in the army were sent to the military academy for training, and then promoted to non-commissioned officers. Excellent soldiers who join the army will first learn command and staff in the military academy, and then follow the battalion as assistants. For military affairs, after accumulating experience, they will be sent down to the battalion post, starting from the deputy position, and after accumulating enough experience, they will become a first-level chief officer.

Although our imperial court has imperial examinations to select scholars, it has always had the practice of practicing walking, but just walking in the big yamen for a few years is not enough, and we have to sink.

This time, the devolution of a thousand heroes to prefectures and counties is only the first batch, and it will become a rule in the future.

This year, there will be the second regular examination and the second Enke examination. The admitted Jinshi will have to go through three years of walking practice, and those who are admitted to Shujishi will have to study in the Imperial Academy for another three years. After the museum is closed, those who still have to practice in the department.

In the future, those who have never been a township magistrate or county magistrate cannot be a county magistrate.Those who have never been magistrates cannot be appointed magistrates.Those who have never been a magistrate cannot grant cloths and presses.

If you don't go through the cloth press, you can't be the governor-general.

Those who have not been a governor-general are not allowed to be ministers or bachelors.

Even if the six divisions give Shizhong and the thirteen censors, they must have the experience of magistrates before they can be appointed! "

When the emperor said these words, it was somewhat astonishing.

This means that in the future, even if the two Jinshi were born in the right way, or even Shu Jishi, if they have not been a township head or county magistrate at the bottom, then they will not be able to be a magistrate, and if they have not been a magistrate, they will not be able to be an official ?
Even affect the future become governor, minister, bachelor?

In other words, in the future, the two Jinshi scholars will have to start from the township mayor or county magistrate?
