Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 182 182 A New Year’s letter to book friends

Li Wenzhong told Wang Buli what he meant, and Zhu Yuanzhang quickly came to his senses.

In fact, Wang Buli's operation was to conduct a small-scale alternative "imperial examination" for the students of the Imperial College to increase their competitiveness. Not everyone can fill the carrot hole.

At the same time, if this group of people becomes officials in the future, they will definitely not be in the Jinshi circle.

In other words, he will not be accepted by the Jinshi circle.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that these scholars liked to talk in circles. Jinshi looked down on the candidates, and the candidates looked down on the scholars.

This is probably the case with literati.

This group of people went to the north for training and gained experience as officials.

In other words, according to Zhu Yuanzhang's understanding, Wang Buli used this group of people as minor officials.

Then given the right opportunity, he can be promoted back to serve as an official.

In other words, Wang Buli did not intend to let this news out. As long as there is this alternative method to select talents in the future, Zhu Yuanzhang can refer to it himself.

Zhu Yuanzhang has begun to look forward to the changes this group of people can bring.

The most important thing is that once these people went to the north for training and were far away from the center of power, even if Lao Zhu wanted to purge Hu Weiyong's people, he would rarely be able to implicate them.

By then, after Hu Weiyong's party members have been cleared out, a lot of actual job vacancies will be vacated in the government, central government and local governments, and then these people will be transferred back, and everyone will be happy.

This group of people is to prepare officials.

The more Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, the more delighted he became, and he was very satisfied with Wang Buli's operation.

This move is simply a stroke of genius.

Zhu Yuanzhang has been testing Wang Buli's ability to spy on the future of the Ming Dynasty.

But so far, neither side has revealed any flaws.

Moreover, the plan proposed by Wang Buli was also very consistent with Zhu Yuanzhang's ideas.

"This is a very good move. You two should make good use of it. I'm waiting to hear your good news."

"Yes." Li Wenzhong quickly expressed his position: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I am aware of this matter."

Wang Buli and Zhu Mingxiu were saying this, and he found that his wife-to-be was a little evasive.

"You have something on your mind?"

"I have something to apologize for."

Zhu Mingxiu's voice was low, and he was holding the sweat towel in his hands, feeling a little at a loss.

"Huh?" Wang Buli rubbed her head:

"As long as it's not life or death, it's not a big deal. Tell me about it."

It took Zhu Mingxiu a while before he told Wang Buli that he was being questioned by his mother, but he just let it slip during a casual chat about the loom.

Queen Ma knew it, and Zhu Yuanzhang probably knew it too. Prince Zhu Biao might know it, but I don't know if the others knew it.

"Hey, this is a small matter." Wang Buli quickly comforted her and said with a smile:

"Do you know why I don't want to give this thing to others?"

"why?"

"When you marry me, the craftsmanship of this kind of weaving machine will naturally be the foundation of our old Wang family. How can we take advantage of outsiders for nothing, right?"

Wang Buli talked eloquently about how you, the head of the house, could have no money in your hands.

Just relying on your father's reward to maintain a good living standard for the whole family, money is needed everywhere.

With this technology, our family can sell more goods and make a profit.

Even if I make my father angry one day, if he gives me a fine, our whole family will not starve to death.

After listening to Wang Buli's words, Zhu Mingxiu was brainwashed unconsciously.

Fortunately, I was just trying to avoid remembering it at the time, and was not as smart as Wang Lang to draw the picture.

It turns out that this is what Wang Lang really meant!

Zhu Mingxiu knew that Wang Buli had already thought about their future, and a feeling she had never felt before suddenly came over her.

When he thought of this, Zhu Mingxiu felt that his legs were a little numb, so he sat next to Wang Buli and leaned over subconsciously.

When she rested her head on Wang Buli's broad shoulder, she felt her blood surge and her face turned red.

After all, he is a talent that is praised by his father, the emperor, his mother, the queen, and the prince's brother. Think about it in the long run.

And I also heard that his engagement was broken off because of his status as a minor official. Such a good man is not something ordinary women can be lucky enough to have. My father, the emperor and my mother found a good marriage for me.

There was no surprise for Wang Buli. The little girl Zhu Mingxiu was naturally not as thoughtful as her parents, and she was well protected.

In fact, he had already asked Zhu Mingxiu about Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance.

At that time, he mainly wanted to refute whether he had the rumored shoehorn face, but when he heard her description, he had a round face, which reminded him of Director Guo from the Ministry of Industry.

In addition, Zhu Di's pseudonym is also Guo, so it is impossible not to be connected.

Therefore, when Chief Guo gave him money, Wang Buli observed him carefully and kept dealing with him, suspecting that he was Zhu Yuanzhang.

But I'm not sure, so I've been looking for opportunities to meet Lao Zhu.

After all, he became Lao Zhu's son-in-law, and he married his eldest daughter.

My wife and son have all met, but he, the father, has no presence and does not show up.

This had to make Wang Buli suspicious.

According to Zhu Yuanzhang's usual method of controlling the overall situation, Wang Buli did not believe that Lao Zhu would not examine himself carefully, or test himself.

Wang Buli patted Zhu Mingxiu on the shoulder: "From now on, you can no longer tell others about the boudoir conversations between us husband and wife. When people grow up, they must have their own privacy.

Just like your parents, they won't tell you everything. This is a secret unique between husband and wife, and even the children won't share it. Think about it, right? "

Zhu Mingxiu thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed what Wang Buli said. Then she asked softly:

"Wang Lang, what is privacy?"

"Well, it's like a little secret between a husband and wife, the kind that's not easy to tell others."

"Oh."

Zhu Mingxiu's face became more and more rosy.

I didn't dare to say anything more, I just wanted to just lean next to Wang Lang quietly.

Inside the Imperial Academy.

Everyone gathered around and looked at the announcements posted everywhere.

Although everyone is very enthusiastic, there are probably too many people applying, and there are not many official positions in the northern region.

Therefore, a written test and interview are conducted, and then the best candidates are selected and the right people are placed in the right positions.

"Such a talent selection method seems extremely fair. Everyone competes fairly. The Prince Consort has some tricks."

Zid stood in front of the crowd and couldn't help but make a comment.

Zide is confident about taking the imperial examination.

But His Majesty has no intention of holding the imperial examination at present, and he is not willing to wait ten years.

ten years.

How many decades can a person live?

Everyone has this idea, especially to give an outlet for many students who are unwilling to integrate into the Huaixi Group.

The students who have not left school still have a little bit of backbone.

After all, they have not yet become officials, they have been immersed in the officialdom, and they have not suffered from the pain of not being elected for many years. There are some unspoken rules that do not need to be taught by others, and they naturally learn them.

Just like Fan Jin, after winning the imperial examination, he behaved extremely maturely towards the gentry and officials.

Over the years, he has rehearsed countless times in his mind how to treat various people if he wins the lottery.

"I have long heard that the Prince Consort handles cases with great care, and today I finally saw his methods."

Some students who thought they could pass the written examination began to praise Wang Buli.

Anyway, it is beneficial to them.

Wang Buli is a small official who has never been baptized by the Four Books and Five Classics. His questions must be very simple. We are very confident in this kind of exam.

Everyone was organized into a group by Wang Buli with fifty people in a class. In short, it was very crowded.

As one of the temporary class monitors, Fang Xiaoru distributed registration forms to the students on the class roster, which was the content of the exam.

Everyone arranges a test and then conducts an interview based on the test content.

To this end, students who have not signed up were also selected to invigilate the exams.

Prevent these people from whispering to each other.

Regarding this exam, many students in the Imperial College shouted that they had never experienced it before. It was not even close to the Four Books and Five Classics.

A new version of the ship that they had not experienced. Of course, it is relatively simple. Not everyone can only read the Four Books and Five Classics.

I also thought about what I would do in the future, so I wrote the bragging content above, which was quite prominent.

At least they dare to write, not just study.

In order to speed up the progress, Wang Buli chose a group of ten people and drew lots to answer questions and answers based on the answers they wrote.

Just do a simple interview.

Li Wenzhong has never seen such a scene, and Le Shaofeng and other interviewers have probably never seen Wang Buli's operations.

As the main interviewer, Li Wenzhong, after experiencing several personal demonstrations by Wang Buli, also started to ask some preset questions.

Some of the students who went out were happy and some looked sad.

Because Wang Buli immediately used those happy people as students with sad faces to set off, it turns out that I am still capable compared to others.

A group of people gathered around the classmates who came out of the interview scene happily and asked. Some people took a different approach and asked those classmates with bitter faces how they failed, so that I could avoid it when I was there.

Le Shaofeng really tasted it.

Wang Buli's operation directly bypassed the complicated provincial examination and joint examination. He conducted the palace examination for the majority of university students on behalf of the emperor.

And this was done at the emperor's behest.

Instead of holding an imperial examination, we will directly conduct a palace examination.

In any case, it can be regarded as a means to promote scholars, and at the same time it prevents the Huaixi Group from growing infinitely.

At least with the people recommended by Hu Weiyong, who would go to those bitter and cold places in the north?

Everyone tried their best to fawn over and wanted Shangguan to arrange a task to find a three-legged golden toad. After all, they all want to enjoy wealth. Who is really willing to do things for the people?

Not to mention asking for orders for the people.

"You are good at reading, and you want to go to Beiyuan to educate those Mongolians, let them understand where the Ming Dynasty is, and then join the Ming Dynasty?"

Wang Buli looked at the student in front of him, took another closer look, and then called out Teng Yunjie's name and asked the others to go out and wait while he conducted the interview alone.

So the remaining nine people all stood up and walked out, and there were soldiers holding handles at the door to prevent them from eavesdropping.

"Are you willing to be an envoy to Beiyuan?"

"Not bad." Teng Yunjie nodded solemnly:

"The world is inhabited by virtuous people, not by character and power. Now that Your Majesty has established the Ming Dynasty, it is enough to prove that he is a virtuous person. Then Beiyuan is an ungrateful person. Their ungrateful people should obey the virtuous people."

Li Wenzhong wanted to laugh when he heard this, but when he thought about Wang Buli's warning in advance.

No matter how funny it is, don't laugh out loud on the spot, and keep the interviewer's seriousness.

He could only hold up his hands and cover his mouth, trying not to listen to Teng Yunjie's long speech.

Damn you.

How many Mongolian Tatars can read?

There is no need to obey those who are virtuous.

Pooh.

The Song Dynasty was so virtuous, but why did the Jin people kidnap the emperor, and even the princesses and concubines were toyed with anal fissures by the Jin people.

Li Wenzhong had also heard of these things.

What does it mean to be virtuous?

The knives in our hands are sharp, and the Mongolian Tatars who have been chopped down kneel on the ground and beg for mercy. This is called virtuous.

The student's remarks in front of him really made Li Wenzhong unable to hold back.

These remarks made Le Shaofeng nod frequently. He had learned Confucianism well, but he was also a minister of the Ministry of War and did not agree with the idea of ​​sending an envoy to Meng Yuan.

Because Wang Baobao died, the person who succeeded him was not a well-rounded civil and military figure, and he was probably not interested in this rhetoric.

Wang Buli looked serious. He felt that Teng Yunjie was very brainwashed. This stupid kid really thought he could do what Ban Chao did?

"You stand up, then squat down ten times."

Teng Yunjie followed Wang Buli's instructions and started to do squats. Finally, he finished ten times with difficulty and became a little out of breath.

The weather is so hot that you can see the sweat on your forehead.

"You can't do this job."

After listening to Wang Buli's words, Teng Yunjie wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "Why?"

"Your theory is very good, but your health is not good. If you don't have a good body in Mongolia, you will die on the road."

Wang Buli had no intention of attacking this man, but told him tactfully that this road would not work.

Le Shaofeng glanced at Wang Buli. He originally thought that the prince-in-law would hold back his smile like Cao Guogong, thinking that all his students said were silly remarks.

I never thought he could be so tactful.

Teng Yunjie was stunned for a moment after hearing Wang Buli's words: "Is the environment there so difficult?"

"Of course, most of the foreign races went south to invade our Central Plains Dynasty, and their living environment there was extremely harsh.

Moreover, the Mongols have a mentality of the jungle. Whenever a snowstorm comes, they will abandon the old, weak, sick and disabled in the tribe, leaving only the young and middle-aged.

You are right to say that they have no virtue, but the method is wrong, and you cannot speak Mongolian. How can you convince them with virtue? "

Li Wenzhong nodded and said aloud: "The only way to make Bei Yuan surrender is with the knife in my Ming's hand."

Le Shaofeng also knew that what Wang Buli said was reasonable. Mongolians drank blood like hair and blood. After running back to their hometown, they would only become more unfettered.

Teng Yunjie sat on the chair again, feeling quite lonely: "Prince-in-law, am I thinking wrong?"

"Well, your teacher only taught you how to influence the enemy, but did not teach you how to understand the enemy. You should not treat them as human beings. They have no morals."

Wang Buli patted his table gently and said: "Their moral bottom line on the grassland is not to kill children shorter than a wheel.

But when they arrived in the Central Plains, they would massacre the city and kill everyone, young and old. Because their population was small, they could only use swords to show their ferocity, making everyone kneel on the ground and not dare to raise their heads.

The Sixteen States of Yanyun have been lost for hundreds of years. Now that the Ming Dynasty has brought this land back, many people think that the north is the territory of the barbarians and despise the northerners.

But that is the territory that China has had since ancient times, and it is definitely not the territory of barbarians. After we take it back, we must not only build the north, but also let the people in the north gain a sense of identity. They are an inseparable part of our Ming Dynasty.

If you think you are good at studying, you can go to the north to spread the Confucian ideas you have learned, teach more children to read and read, and make up for the lack of Confucian culture in the north. Instead of just selecting a few reading seeds to cultivate, that is too utilitarian. .

In the future, if you, Teng Yunjie, become a famous teacher in the hearts of northern students, you will naturally have students all over the world and become a celebrity in history.

It is many times better than trying to convert the Mongolians, but it will take a long time after the seeds are planted, and your body may not be able to bear the hardship.

In short, I personally think very highly of you, so you should take good care of your health. If I let you go to a place like the north, I just want you to die. I can't agree. "

After hearing Wang Buli's words, not to mention Teng Yunjie, even Le Shaofeng looked at Wang Buli with admiration.

Song Lian stood silently.

Compared with Wang Buli, their structure cannot keep up.

It was a helpless move for Lao Zhu to create the North-South List in his later period, because the "Confucian education" in the north had been almost stripped away.

The small circle of famous Confucian teachers in the south is closely united. If I recruit you as my son-in-law, or my brother will marry your daughter, we will form a more favorable alliance and recruit a few smart disciples.

The king of heaven and earth is your teacher. Under the propaganda of Confucianism, the status of a teacher is not even remotely close to that of other monarchs and your parents.

Teng Yunjie was shocked by the vision described by Wang Buli.

So I can still have such a future?

Who doesn’t want to have students all over the world?

Even a great scholar like Song Lian would not easily accept disciples for the sake of his own reputation, but would accept valuable students.

It is almost impossible for these people to teach Confucius without distinction.

Confucius' thoughts have long been transformed by these "easy-to-break" descendants, stripping away the original meaning.

If Confucianism could not change its dogma with the times and conform to the rulers' thinking, they would have been killed long ago.

"Okay, that's good!"

Li Wenzhong stood up and took a few steps:

"I hope that when I was fighting in the past, I still didn't understand. I was waiting for the Han people to rescue the people who were oppressed by the Mongols, but they didn't believe me and ran away with the Mongols. It turns out that the roots are here!"

"They don't agree with us, so they need more education."

Le Shaofeng stroked his beard and shook his head: "If I were ten years younger, I would also like to go to the north to be a master and teach them the correct understanding of our Ming Dynasty orthodoxy."

Song Lian was already semi-retired. He just looked at the registration forms handed in by the students and did not say anything.

"Prince-in-law, I understand what to do." Teng Yunjie regained his fighting spirit and said again:

"I heard that the father-in-law is a miracle doctor, but can you teach me how to keep fit?"
