Daming: Me!The auspicious beast unicorn of the old Zhu family

Chapter 124 The Great Ming Imperial Examination!There are really corrupt officials who dare to stretch out their hands!

The Ming Empire, Yingtian City.

mid-June.

A few days passed in a flash, and the first imperial examination of the Ming Empire, which had been organized since February and March, was also in full swing.

The Juggernaut Changhong, who was appointed as the chief examiner, is naturally also responsible for selecting excellent seedlings, selecting the best for admission, and selectively cultivating them. Only in this way can they cultivate a group of talents that will be beneficial to the future conquest of the world by the Ming Empire. .

Guozijian, this is an important building that has just been built in the past two months.

After all, tomorrow elite students from all over the country will come here to take part in the palace examination.

However, most of them are students from the south. After all, the north has just been conquered. Many people don’t even know about the news. There are probably very few students from the north who can rush over. They can only wait for the next imperial examination to begin. able to participate.

Imperial Examination.

In the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, it is a very important way to select talents.

This can ensure that the emperor can select trustworthy talents from poor families and poor people. If all talents are expected to be provided by meritorious families and thousand-year-old families, they will never know when they will be completely emptied of power, so it is still very useful to keep one hand necessary.

"This is really grand."

"I can see students from all over the country dancing and writing here, it's like sitting in a dragon palace."

"It seems that the construction of the Ministry of Industry is quite serious. After the imperial examination is over, we will reward them well."

"."

Wearing a fiery red dragon robe, Comrade Zhu looked at this brand new Imperial College.

Vermilion wall paint, solid tiles, elegant design.

This is also the face of the imperial court.

After all, scholars all over the world have to come here to take the exam, and the first impression of the court is naturally here. If even the Guozijian is built in tatters, how can the scholars have hope for the court?

"Go, go in and take a look."

for a while.

Comrade Zhu, who was in a good mood, also took a step forward and walked straight into the newly built Imperial College.

The civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty followed closely behind.

It's a pity that for such a grand ceremony, Biao'er was not here. He was still sitting in the north with Xu Da, conquering the territory occupied by the Yuan people. Counting the time of those rice seedlings, the first batch is almost mature.

Only Di'er is still in Yingtian City, but this kid has committed too many crimes, so Comrade Zhu can only drag him to confinement for a period of time.

When will I really figure it out, and when will I be able to release it.

My four older sons.

Not one is around now.

They each have their own things to do, and they are very busy.

The boss, Zhu Biao, was in charge of all aspects of development. As the future emperor of the Ming Empire, he had to master as many skills as possible. Fortunately, he was very reassuring to Comrade Zhu since he was a child, so he didn't have to worry about anything.

The second son, Zhu Xing, seems to have found his goal now. He diligently cultivates the farmland every day, and learns some military tactics along the way. Food is the foundation of a country. He can focus so much on increasing food production. Comrade Zhu It is also quite gratifying.

The third child, Zhu Yan, has not yet found his goal, and is still doing nothing every day.

Although Zhu Di, the fourth child, is very skinny, he has also shown extraordinary talents in military affairs. He only needs to be cultivated well, and he will surely become a famous general of the Ming Dynasty in the future and open up the territory for the Ming Dynasty!
"Juxian Hall."

"Not bad."

"Our Ming Dynasty's first imperial examination must be done well, so as to give the scholars of the world a good hope."

"Let them feel that they have a bright future as a student in our new Ming dynasty."

"."

Comrade Zhu flicked his fiery red dragon robe, looking quite happy.

He used to have no conditions to study, but later he had to work harder to study if he wanted to study. It is precisely because he knows the hardship of not being able to study that he wants to let scholars all over the world enjoy a good study process. .

suddenly.

As if remembering something.

Comrade Zhu asked Changhong, the sword master beside him: "By the way, how are the talents who come to the capital for the imperial examination this year selected?"

The sword master Changhong bowed his hands and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, in the past, the imperial examinations had to be selected again and again, from the county examination, the government examination, the hospital examination, the township examination, the general examination, and the palace examination. Since this is the first Enke exam, part of it is the scientific name of the Yuan Dynasty, and part of it is the outstanding talents selected by the temporary exam."

Comrade Zhu nodded, expressing his understanding: "Well, this is also possible. If they can pass the examination of the Yuan Dynasty, it means that they still have some skills, but this scientific name is only for this year. When it starts next year, then We have to scrap everything and start from scratch.”

In extraordinary times, use an extraordinary method.

When time is tight, it is natural to keep everything simple.

After all, if you follow the normal examination process, it will be very troublesome. There are six levels in total——

Tong Sheng (Level [-] County Examination)—a child who has just started studying.It is equivalent to graduating from junior high school, because they can be regarded as learned people.

Xiucai (Second Level Government Examination) - Those who pass the lowest level of the examination are called students, also known as Xiucai.Equivalent to high school graduation.

Juren (third-level court examination)——Scholars should take the triennial township martial arts, and those who pass are called Juren.It is equivalent to college students or graduate students, because they stand out from many talents after all.

Gongshi (fourth-level provincial examination)—a qualification obtained after passing the nationwide imperial examination (general examination), which is held in the second year after the provincial examination

Jinshi (fifth-level general examination)—a candidate to participate in the general examination in Beijing, and those who pass are called Jinshi.To be precise, it is held in a similar title month, so it is also called Chunwei.Those who take the exam must be Juren. After passing the exam, they will be a quasi-jinshi, and after passing the palace exam, they will be a Jinshi.

Tanhua (the sixth-level palace examination)—the No.3 palace examination is called Tanhua.

No. 2 in the ranking (sixth level palace examination) — No. [-] in the palace examination is called the second place in the ranking.

Champion (sixth-level palace examination)—after the Southern Song Dynasty, No. 1 in the palace examination was called the champion.Absolutely cannot be said to be equivalent to a doctorate, because there are too many doctors, and the number one scholar only comes out in a few years, at least it should be equivalent to an academician. If the number one scholar can be said to be an honor, it should be equivalent to the current Nobel Prize winner.

Comrade Zhu continued to walk forward.

It's just that when stepping on a stone brick, there was a crisp sound under his feet.

"Crack-"

"?"

Comrade Zhu stopped his steps.

Turning around and looking behind him, he found that a stone brick had been crushed by himself on the spot, with cracks appearing on it, and the bottom was even more empty. It seemed that it was just a mock-up, and the inside was not completely filled. And strengthen the cornerstone.

moment.

Originally in a good mood.

It disappeared without a trace.

Comrade Zhu's face suddenly turned down, it was as black as coal.

All the civil and military officials behind him looked at each other except for the sword master Changhong, who was still indifferent. They knew that what His Majesty hates most is corrupt officials. This man is really courageous It's amazing that he dared to commit corruption in the construction of the first imperial examination.

"Could it be that this is the Dragon Path of the Enke Great Trial?"

"Who did it wrong?"

"They're all dumb! Let's ask who did the job!"

"."

Comrade Zhu was furious.

Because of the blood of the unicorn aroused by anger, its aura became even more terrifying, even those battle-tested warriors couldn't help but tremble at this moment.

When the emperor was angry, the corpse floated for thousands of miles!

Although it is not so exaggerated now, those who try to embezzle.

That is definitely a lot, and they will all be arrested and beheaded!
Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen looked at each other. At this time, only the two of them stood up and explained. After a moment of silence, Li Shanchang stood up on his own initiative and said with his hands together: "Return to Your Majesty, this is Sponsored by the Ministry of Industry and undertaken by the Construction Department.”

Comrade Zhu then asked:
"On the day of the big test, do all the students have to enter through this dragon path?"

"Speak! You're all dumb!"

"If we didn't come to inspect it today and let them step on a big hole, what would they think!"

"Juxiantang, where scholars from all over the world gather, turns out to be a dross place, a fake and shoddy place!"

"."

Since ancient times, corrupt officials have never been killed or killed.

No matter how ruthless Comrade Zhu's method of beheading corrupt officials is, it can only serve as a deterrent at most. Many daring guys will still stretch out their claws, trying to touch the one that does not belong to them. property.

As long as there is greed, corruption will not stop. This is a difficult problem that cannot be solved through the ages.

Feeling the heavy power emanating from His Majesty, Li Shanchang couldn't help swallowing.

I don't know if it's an illusion.

I always feel that His Majesty's power has suddenly become several times stronger.

The original Comrade Zhu, the concentration of unicorn blood on his body was only able to exert the effect of 5.00%. Later, it was directly increased to [-]% after being induced by the Xuanyuan Sword of the Holy Dao, so Li Shanchang would feel that Comrade Zhu was It is also normal for the power to increase.

but.

Li Shanchang was still trying to explain something.

"Your Majesty, the materials used here may be just an occasional negligence."

"Occasional negligence?"

Hear each other's explanation.

Comrade Old Zhu stared at the other party with a half-smile, as if he wanted to catch him out.

He took a deep breath and managed to calm himself down. This is somewhat explainable. After all, the entire Juxian Hall is so big, it is impossible to do everything perfectly. Occasionally, there is a little negligence, and now find out , It’s okay to check for leaks and fill vacancies in time.

but.

Is it really an occasional oversight.

Or that there are corrupt officials playing tricks inside.

Then he needs to check and verify himself before he can make a judgment.

Comrade Zhu looked around, and with the blessing of the Qilin's blood, his gaze was as sharp as a falcon's, and he quickly locked on the position of the pillar.

Trusting his intuition, he stepped forward and knocked on this pillar, and there was a hollow sound from inside.

Ok.

Well done.

Even the pillars are hollow.

Is this also the result of occasional negligence?

Comrade Zhu was almost laughed out of anger, he turned a knife in his hand, and slashed on the top of the pillar with a hand knife. He cut it out of a big hole with almost no effort, and the loose sand inside was like "哗啦啦'The flow comes out, not shaped at all, condensed into a qualified pillar.

Old Comrade Zhu was furious and roared: "Occasionally negligent? Do you think this is a pillar? Or a coffin board!"

Immediately.

All civil and military officials fell to their knees in unison.

Facing the heavy wrath of the emperor, even if they had ten guts, they would not dare to sing against Comrade Zhu at such a time. Isn't that purely an act of death.

It is right to bow your head, keep silent, and admit your mistake with sincerity.

Now, even Li Shanchang didn't dare to make blind comparisons. This matter has nothing to do with him. If there is more pressure and His Majesty takes his anger on him, it will be a disaster for no reason.

"Da Ming's first Enke is so foolish!"

"The grace of the imperial court has been stolen by the villains!"

"Corrupt officials! There must be corrupt officials here! Who did it! If you stand up now, we can still deal with it lightly. If we find out the thing that loses his head at most, then we will put his head directly. Let all the students in the world step over his head in the pit that he stepped out of!"

"Ok?"

"."

Comrade Zhu said in a deep voice.

It is estimated that the stone brick and the construction of the pillars alone cost more than 60 taels of silver.

After all, although the Ming Empire is indeed poor today, it cannot treat the students of the world badly. Naturally, it must use the best possible materials to build it. Fortunately, the raids by the Shandong Chief Envoy have directly replenished the Ming Empire. That's why Comrade Zhu can be so generous.

Follow the rules he made.

All officials who have embezzled more than 60 taels of silver will be beheaded for public display!
Corrupt officials who dare to embezzle the building of the Guozijian will not only be beheaded, but also be nailed to the pillar of shame!

perhaps.

This measure may not be of much use to modern people.

After all, many people in modern times think that people are dead, and it doesn’t matter what you do with the corpse after death. , Even reincarnated, there will be no peace, and there is even a possibility of falling into the [-]th level of hell.

"."

"."

"."

Among the civil and military officials, there is still a dead silence.

No one took the initiative to stand up and admit it, and no one wanted to lose their heads because of it.

Comrade Zhu sneered a few times. He had already given the opportunity, but some people just don't cherish it. He didn't really think that those small actions could escape the careful inspection of Jin Yiwei, did he?

That being the case.

Then wait to be trampled by thousands of people after death!
"The Commander of Jin Yiwei listens to the order!"

"The minister is here."

"How long will it take to find the mastermind of this incident?"

"Reporting to His Majesty, only half an hour is enough."

"Okay! Then let's wait here. We want to see, which daring bastard actually dares to stretch out his hand here!"

"Minister—lead the decree."

In front of many civil and military officials.

Sword Master Changhong naturally wanted to give Comrade Zhu a face.

The duty of Jin Yiwei is often more risky to investigate the enemy's camp and steal high-level information from the enemy's army. Like this kind of thing to find corrupt officials, it is definitely a sledgehammer, and they can be easily caught. !
After taking over the mission, Sword Master Changhong also left here quickly, ordering his Jin Yiwei to investigate the matter.

Only a group of civil and military officials who were anxious were left, and they still stayed here with Comrade Zhu.

although.

This matter has nothing to do with the vast majority of officials.

However, they were afraid of being jointly and severally liable, and also afraid that it was their own students who made mistakes. As a teacher, wouldn't they also have corresponding responsibilities?
Jin Yiwei's strength.

Everyone knows it well.

It couldn't be easier to catch that person out.

Half an hour is fleeting.

Sword Master Changhong walked quickly in front, followed by two Jinyi guards, they pressed a middle-aged strong man in military officer uniform, and escorted him all the way.

This person.

It was Ma Nanshan, the personal guard who had followed Zhu Yuanzhang in the Southern and Northern Wars for many years!

He has not only made a lot of contributions to Comrade Zhu, but also has a high prestige in the entire Huaixi Group. Although his official position is not high, many people admire him.

To be honest, even Comrade Zhu never thought that the person who committed such corruption was actually his personal guard who had followed him for many years!

Basically, every emperor would be deeply impressed by his personal guards, after all, he was always by his side.

It's like being the driver of the leadership of future generations.

If there is something good, the leader will also mention his own driver.

"Chen Ma Nanshan, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

I saw Comrade Zhu coming.

As a guilty minister, Ma Nanshan knelt down on the ground immediately.

But even if the other party is his former personal guard, but the state owns the state law, and the family has family rules, everything must be implemented in accordance with the rules and regulations.

Comrade Zhu pointed to the pillars covered with broken sand and the crushed stone bricks, and said, "Ma Nanshan, you did all these scandals?"

Ma Nanshan did not make any excuses, and directly admitted: "It was the minister."

It is useless to explain, he also knows that Jin Yiwei is powerful, if he was able to escort himself here, he must have obtained the corresponding evidence, and the defense is nothing but self-inflicted humiliation.

Moreover, as one of the founding heroes of the country, he still has a gold medal for avoiding death bestowed by His Majesty.

This is not casual surfing, what is there to be afraid of?

As long as you don't rebel, this death-avoiding gold medal can definitely save your life.
