People in the Ming Dynasty are lawless

Chapter 194 Duke Yan has already arrived in Beijing!He is here to kill you!
After Zhu Biao listened to Chen Han's words, he looked at Chen Han and sighed, "I know you come from later generations, you must know more about the selection of talents to govern the country.

But for Daming, the great situation you created cannot be stopped now.

Nowadays, we still have to rely on Confucian students.

Moreover, in the current officialdom, there are so many humeral ministers and how many capable ministers and officials. They are not all pedantic people as you think.

If you win and trample Confucianism under your feet and denounce it as heresy, what will the world's scholars and officials do?Dismiss them all?
Your engineering school has not produced anyone who can replace them.

If they resign one after another and refuse to do anything, you will let His Majesty go on a killing spree again.

Of course you will say that officials all over the world have become the officials they are today with the help of Confucian imperial examinations. They will not resign because Confucianism has failed.

They are indeed people who seek fame and reputation, and it is indeed as you think. They have resigned from their posts after meeting each other, and never saw a single person in the forest.

But these are just people with mediocre abilities, real talents, truly capable officials, but deep down they have great trust in the banner of Confucianism.

For example, Ling Han, the Minister of Rites, has disgraced Confucianism. How do you want him to deal with himself?

He has always supported you, but you have made him lose his foundation.

Just like Xia Yuanji and others.

Do you think that if he follows you to carry out reforms now, he can really betray Confucianism?

And your cabinet ministers.

They support your reforms, but you just want them to be rootless? "

Prince Zhu Biao's words were very harsh, and he must have thought about them for a long time.

So it is both advice and warning.

The meaning is to tell Chen Han that as the prince, he has long understood that there are many people in Confucianism who are just trying to gain fame and reputation, and there are many hypocrites, but there are also quite a few who can truly become officials.

These people are all the officials that Ming Dynasty needs to rely on now.

If these people really rise up to resist, what should Chen Han do?What should the world do?
Do you really want to watch the chaos happen?

Prince Zhu Biao controls the size from the perspective of holding the world in his hands.

He also wanted to support Chen Han and try his best to reform.

He did indeed do it, but some things must be erased if they are disgusting.

The world is not black and white, there are also shades of gray.

Even if none of these officials are clean, shouldn't they all be hanged?

Even if Confucianism does obstruct reform, it is to defend their status. Should they be trampled into the mud for this reason?
And then let all the scholars in the world be in mourning?
Then the world would be in chaos.

In fact, the prince Zhu Biao at this time can be considered relatively inclusive.

Otherwise, Chen Han, the heretic, would have been cut off long ago.

I wonder how many princes can tolerate Chen Han finding another way besides Confucianism.

If it were placed in the Song Dynasty, even if the emperor protected him, the emperor's life would not be saved.

If it were placed in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, if the emperor wanted to support reforms, he might have been drowned in the pond for no reason.

Chen Han just caught up with a good time and caught up with Zhu Yuanzhang to become emperor.

Zhu Yuanzhang can guard against all the evil spirits in the world.

Otherwise, Chen Han would still be alive?
Otherwise, there would still be a chance for Chen Han’s technological reforms to be implemented?

It is precisely because Zhu Biao knows these powers and understands the joints in this that he feels that Chen Han's current approach is a bit too radical.

According to the ideas of Prince Zhu Biao and Lao Zhu, Chen Han's engineering college must first settle him for five or six years.

Cultivate a large number of talents with new ideas and slowly penetrate into the entire officialdom, so that they can play the role of backbone. Only in this way can they be replaced slowly, so that the world will not be in chaos.

But now Chen Han actually wants to pull out all the firepower, but that won't cause people all over the world to attack him.

Prince Zhu Biao is now very worried about Chen Han's safety.

In particular, he understood very well that the power of Duke Yan Sheng, even if he could not control these officials, still had a considerable influence on the scholars in the world.

With just one word from him, all the scholars in the world could drown Chen Han in their saliva.

And it is also quite detrimental to future reforms.

It was precisely because of these factors that Prince Zhu Biao wanted Chen Han to restrain this idea.

The prince even directly lit the table and said, "Did you know that Kong Ne had entered Beijing the day before yesterday?"

Chen Han was stunned for a moment, "So soon? This person entered the capital without much fanfare, causing a storm in the city, and causing scholars to kneel at the door to greet him? How come he is so mysterious?"

Zhu Biao replied: "In the past few years, this guy's visit to Beijing really caused a storm in the city. Scholars from other provinces also traveled thousands of miles to come to the capital to see him. The scene was so grand.

But now, do you think it is normal to enter the city quietly like this? "

Chen Han nodded: "That's true. When something goes wrong, there must be a monster."

How could such a publicity-loving Duke Yansheng waste such a good opportunity?

The Zhili Provincial Examination will be held in one month. At that time, many scholars from surrounding prefectures will gather in the capital.

Moreover, they were all scholars from the most fertile land, with large numbers and the highest quality. The crowd must have been huge at that time.

However, Mr. Yanxian gave up such a good opportunity to reveal his sage and secretly entered the city. This shows that the plan is not trivial.

"Your Highness, Jin Yiwei is still very powerful. Even though he has become the Tax Inspection Department, he can still clearly see every move in the capital.

Even though no one knew that Duke Yan Sheng had entered the city, His Highness and His Majesty already knew it. "

Zhu Biao said: "Don't flatter me, but Jinyiwei is really powerful.

Even if it becomes the Tax Audit Department, it will do the same thing.

After the number of soldiers was expanded, the Jinyiwei commander Jiang Yingke never relaxed his training for them.

Over the past year or so, it can be said that this group of people has penetrated into all walks of life. "

Chen Han smiled and said, "Father-in-law, your opinion of Jin Yiwei seems to have changed for the better."

Zhu Biao's face became hot and he reprimanded: "You are such a talker, now is not the time to brag about the Imperial Guard, we have to talk about your business. Yan Shenggong came to Beijing early, and his plans are indeed very big.

I guess he wants to find out your details first and then give you a fatal blow. "

Chen Han immediately said, "Father-in-law, can't you let the Jinyi guards secretly arrest him?"

Zhu Biao shouted coldly: "What are you talking about? You should also know how important Yan Shenggong is in the hearts of scholars all over the world. If you arrest him for no reason, it is estimated that those scholars will become desperadoes and attack the Jinyi Guards." Prison." Chen Han also laughed, of course he was joking.

Catching such a person would be a big deal and would drive those scholars crazy.

Seeing that there was still a joking look on his face, the prince straightened his expression: "I'm just telling you that Duke Yan has made plans. He gave up such a good opportunity to swagger into the capital and chose to sneak away. If you enter the capital, they will definitely want to put you to death.

So again, it would be best if you can avoid its sharp edges.

If not, His Majesty may have to come forward to mediate, and may have to give Duke Yan some face and make some concessions.

You know, what my father hates the most is these hypocritical scholars.

If you force him to say good things to the leaders of these scholars, the old man will definitely vent his anger on you, and you will inevitably have a hard time with him. "

Chen Han listened to Prince Zhu Biao's concern and thought that the old man would be forced to be disgraced and humbled by Duke Yan. Chen Han couldn't stand it.

"Your Highness doesn't need to be like this. Since I know he will come to the capital, I have made plans.

I might as well tell you the truth. I didn't tell Xia Yuanji or Ling Han this, I just told you. "

Chen Han said mysteriously, "Actually, what we have to deal with this time is just targeting the Confucian family, just knocking them off the altar. Who said it would destroy the foundation of the entire Confucianism.

In fact, Confucianism still has many merits, but the current Confucianism is no longer as simple as the Confucianism founded by Mr. Kong.

On the contrary, it has become a Confucian religion like a gang. They will fight to the death whoever dares to touch their interests.

Don't you think this is really scary?

Today's imperial power will be tied up by them.

The reason why His Majesty tolerates these scholars so much is that the number of scholars obtained through the imperial examination is actually much higher than that in the Tang and Song Dynasties.

The imperial examination was invented by the Sui Dynasty and developed through the Tang and Song Dynasties. However, the number of people who took the imperial examination each year in the previous dynasties was less than one-tenth of the current imperial examination in the Ming Dynasty.

Doesn’t this show that our Ming Dynasty is extremely dependent on scholars like them?

Even the privileges and exemptions given to scholars were much more generous than in the previous dynasties, which actually encouraged the arrogance of these scholars. "

When Chen Han said this, Zhu Biao also felt a little aggrieved.

But there is no way.

The situation at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China was really not optimistic.

After occupying the Central Plains, the Mongols' attitude towards the Han people was really a bit low.

As a result, Han people have far fewer opportunities to become officials and have fewer scholars.

Therefore, after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, in order to quickly resume production, the only option was to increase the number of places admitted to the imperial examination.

At the same time, the privileges of scholars are increased, so that scholars can be encouraged to become officials and the situation of the world can be stabilized.

But there are advantages and disadvantages.

As the number of scholars increases, so do the number of people with preferential and exemption rights.

After this group of people appears, they will form cliques.

Even if there is no explicit party struggle, in order to maintain this privilege and immunity and to allow their descendants to enjoy it, they will do whatever it takes to maintain it.

It is precisely because of this that Prince Zhu Biao is a little afraid.

The prince was stunned for a long time after listening to Chen Han's words, "Anyway, I have said that if you insist on doing it, although I can't block everything for you, I can at least guarantee that even if you lose, you won't go too far. miserable.

It's just possible that you can't even stay in the capital, and you have to go to a remote place to retire quietly. "

Chen Han smiled. In fact, this is still a good thing. If he loses then, he may be attacked by various attacks where there are scholars.

Prince Zhu Biao finally left with full of worries.

……

Early the next morning.

On the street outside Sanshan Gate, above a teahouse.

Someone is commenting on the Daming Institute of Engineering newspaper leaked by Chen Han and others.

One scholar was very angry and slapped the table: "The sage of science and technology is just a joke. He is just the leader of strange and obscene skills. He can blatantly and swagger through the market. It is an insult to politeness and politeness!!"

Another scholar in a blue shirt slapped the table, "That's true. This thief relies on the support of His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and has some strange skills that have indeed brought some benefits to businessmen and people. How dare he do this?" The arrogance.

Those failed scholars who are willing to be humble are actually flattering like this. It can be seen that this person is not good at anything else, but he still has ways to win people's hearts. "

Another person laughed directly, "What a pity, it's just a heretic. Compared with my Confucian orthodoxy, it's just a fight between the stars and the bright moon. It's not worth mentioning. This person will be infamy for thousands of years!"

When these scholars talked about exciting things, they were all filled with righteous indignation.

Suddenly, a young man wearing bunts sitting at a table in the corner couldn't help but ridicule: "Master Chen not only reformed the tax system, so that ordinary people like us will no longer be oppressed, but also made some people read a little, but... The so-called scholars who were hiding in the dark and supported by the big landowners and unscrupulous gentry had no support.

From then on, we had to pay taxes, pay taxes, and perform corvées together, so we were full of shit.

It's nothing more than being ruined by Mr. Chen.

The eyes of such scholars are smaller than the tip of a needle! ! "

As soon as these words came out, the scholars present were immediately angered.

One of the scholars stood up in an uproar, pointed at the corner and cursed, "Thief Chen's lackey still dares to bark here. It seems like you have been bribed by Thief Chen."

The young man in the shorts was a craftsman at first glance. After he stood up, he pointed at the scholar who had just scolded him and retorted: "You son of a bitch, don't fart here. Don't think that you have been studying for several years and there is some ink in your stomach." Just rambling here.

Mr. Chen has always done me good things.

But even if there is no benefit, anyone who knows how to repay kindness will understand how beneficial Mr. Chen's tax reform is to ordinary people like us.

This will save our children and grandchildren from having to bear excessive taxes and corvee for generations to come.

On the contrary, you guys are dressed like beasts, dressed like humans and dogs, but what you do is just male thieves and female prostitutes.

Do you think you are the only one who has read the book?We people have also read some books and know the truth. Are the generations in your family all scholars?
You are three generations back and your family is not a farmer. Do you want to be oppressed by those gentry and big landowners every day?

Now that Mr. Chen has finally come forward to help us take off all the burdens, you have stepped forward to accuse us like a dog.

If you have the ability, your children and grandchildren will be officials for generations to come. Otherwise, sooner or later you will have to be grateful to Mr. Chen for his current reforms! ! "
