"To put it simply, we can give the founding fathers glory and wealth, but we can't give them unlimited power. Let them develop and grow in the future, until they harm the court and the people of the world." Qin Yu said.

"Mmm, yes." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded heavily upon hearing this.

In other words, for Li Shanchang, Xu Da, and other heroes, just let them enjoy the glory and wealth.

They cannot be empowered.

Not to mention giving power to their descendants, or opening the door for their descendants to become officials.

Governing the government must be shared by all people in the world.

Those who can go.

It's not that you can get in because of the merits of your ancestors.

Governing the world is a sacred and great matter, and it is related to the well-being of the vast majority of the people in the world.If anyone whose ancestors fought the world for Emperor Zhu will become a high official in the future, then Ming Dynasty will be in chaos.

That is how people govern the country, not ability.

If such things are not controlled, those nobles will continue to grow from generation to generation, until they become too big, and finally endanger the court and the Ming Dynasty, and the emperor will have nothing to do with them.

And among the vast majority of the people, those who are capable will never have the opportunity to stand out.

"After we go back, we will immediately announce a decree that everyone who wants to become an official must pass the imperial examination." Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself, "If you can't pass the imperial examination, no matter how great your ancestors' credit is, you can't be selected." Become an official."

"Let the imperial examination merit become the most hard-core promotion condition in the Ming Dynasty, and no recommendation system is allowed."

"Let the imperial examination become the fairest platform in the world."

"Let the children of the common people at the bottom get the same opportunities as those of the nobles."

"Mr. Qin, what do you think of the imperial examination?" Zhu Yuanzhang expressed his thoughts, "If the imperial examination becomes the fairest platform for promotion, then wouldn't those feudal nobles become the dominant family?"

"The imperial examination is indeed the best way." Qin Yu said, "It can achieve the equality of ordinary people and those noble children to the greatest extent."

"However, those feudal nobles are pervasive, and they are likely to cheat in the imperial examination."

"So the imperial examination must be strictly controlled to prevent fraud."

"Yes, yes." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.The imperial examination has been regarded as one of the biggest national events in all dynasties. The emperor is also doing his best to prevent fraud in the imperial examination. It can be said that he has spared no effort.

However, there are countless imperial examination fraud cases in the past dynasties, and imperial examination fraud is hard to prevent.

Because the imperial examination is a big cake, the interests in it are too great.

In the imperial examination fraud cases that occurred in the Qing Dynasty, even the princes were involved.

"Excuse me, sir, how to prevent fraud in the imperial examination?" Zhu Di asked.

"Implement the most severe punishment system." Qin Yu said, "Only the most stringent laws can put an end to such phenomena. And the past dynasties have also done this. Whenever there is fraud in the imperial examination, the perpetrators will be executed."

"The feudal dynasty must rely on laws to govern the country, not human feelings."

"The three major events of a feudal dynasty, imperial examinations, medical care, and laws, are the top priorities. In these three areas, no mistakes can be allowed, and construction must be stepped up."

"Because these three aspects are related to the most immediate interests of the general public."

"We know." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

I secretly sighed in my heart, the construction of Daming still has a long way to go!Although the Confucianism has been eliminated in the Ming Dynasty, it only lays the foundation for the general aspects. The construction of many details requires a lot of time.
and a lot of talent.

It is not a matter of a day or two to build the Ming Dynasty well.

"In addition, in the feudal dynasty, vigorously run schools so that the children of ordinary people have the opportunity to learn and make a difference." Qin Yu said again, "Because the resources of those feudal nobles were originally richer than ordinary people."

"Education cannot be exclusive to the elite."

"If the imperial court does nothing, even in a fair imperial examination environment, those elites will have an absolute advantage."

"This is not to deliberately target those elites, but to give ordinary people a chance."

"Let's make the playing field bigger instead of making education the exclusive preserve of the elite."

"That's right!" Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Only by allowing the majority of the people to have access to the best educational resources is the greatest fairness in the world. If the majority of the people are not given a chance, in the end it will be those nobles who control the government."

"The second point is medical treatment." Qin Yu said.

"That was the top priority."

"However, the lives of the people in ancient times were ordinary, and many people looked down on doctors. Therefore, medical treatment cannot form a big cake, so for the ancient feudal dynasties, medical treatment was not a big problem."

"However, if the ancient feudal dynasties flourished, medical care would form a new chain of interests."

"Well, well, we will also pay attention to this point." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"The third point is the law." Qin Yu said, "The law is the most important of these three points. If there is a fair and just law and it can be fully implemented, all problems will no longer be problems."

"However, this topic is too big to be explained clearly in a few words."

"In the future, I will have to ask my husband for advice." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Ask me why?" Qin Yu said, "Although I like history very much, I don't study history, and I don't rely on it for a living. So why study the ancient legal system in depth?"

"Just study and play, anyway, I have nothing to do." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"It makes sense." Qin Yu said, "Anyway, in this remote mountainous area, there is nothing else to do. You can't even play a mobile game."

……

"Well, well, by the way, Mr. Qin, what do you think of Hengqu's four sentences?" Zhu Yuanzhang remembered what Empress Ma said before, Qin Yu had already done these four sentences.To build a country with the Tao is to establish a heart for the heaven and earth, to seek the well-being of the people is to establish a life for the people, and to establish the Jixia Academy is to inherit the ancient sages...

So I decided to ask Qin Yu his own opinion in front of Qin Yu.

"The so-called four sentences of Hengqu are to establish a heart for the world, to establish a life for the people, to inherit the knowledge of the past, and to bring peace to all generations." Zhu Di said excitedly when he heard the words, "These few sentences are really well written. It sounds amazing. People's blood is boiling."

"It can be said to be the most shocking four sentences in history, the ideal benchmark for scholars."

"Yes, we also feel that these four sentences have a high level of thinking."

"Hehe." However, Qin Yu laughed when he heard it, and said, "Don't you feel that these few words are too ungrounded? These few words are as high as the clouds in the sky, completely different from the ground. Don't touch it."
