Jinyi Night Walk

Chapter 154 Emperor's mind

Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the chair tiredly and did not speak, with his eyes closed. Xia Xun saw that the ceremony was over, so he could only stand there quietly.

"The community, the people, justice, and morality, what is the most important? What is the most important!"

Zhu Yuanzhang murmured something, then stopped his voice again.

Xia Xun thought to himself: "I remember that because of the Ding Chou scientific research case, in order to resolve this dispute, Daming has since divided the rankings into the north and the south. Why didn't the ministers make this suggestion just now?"

He hesitated for a moment, and said: "This minister is a small military officer, so logically speaking, he shouldn't talk too much. However, the master worries about the humiliation of the ministers, and the worry of the emperor is the shame of the ministers. I don't know if I can think of a way. feasible,……"

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes, looked at him curiously, and said without any hope: "You say."

Xia Xun said: "Yes, the examination papers are all narrowly blurred with names. Students from all over the country gather in the capital to take the exam together, and they can't tell the east, west, north, south. Since it is a fact that the students in the north are not as knowledgeable as the students in the south, then this time the examination is so true. , it will still be the case in the future. It is still inevitable that the examiners will judge by the papers, and the northerners will fail the rankings. It is better to open the southern list and the northern list according to the situation in the north and the south. The list. The outstanding northerners do not compete with the southerners, and they also have official backgrounds to become officials. In this way, the northern students can see the future direction and encourage the northern students to follow the style of learning, and they will not be confused because of the northern and southern students. Together, the embarrassment of inevitably failing the ranking may be eliminated."

Xia Xun's method has the same effect as the divisional lines of the college entrance examination for later generations, and the north-south ranking is undoubtedly more suitable for the current situation that all students from all over the country enter Beijing for the exam. Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes gradually brightened: "Good idea, this is a good idea. You are a military officer. It's a pity. ※Of course it's Jinyi Night Walk※

Xia Xun was taken aback. He didn't want Lao Zhu to get excited and make him a civil servant. He was a fake student, and he was mixed with those literati who knew nothing about it. There was always a time when he was asked to write. Don't you want to make a big fool of yourself?Besides, he didn't like those civil servants who were honest, hypocritical, or crooked anyway.

Fortunately, that's all Zhu Yuanzhang said, and after a pause, he moved on to the next topic: "So, what should we do in the current situation?"

Xia Xun took a sneak look at him, and said bravely, "Or, the emperor allows Enke to admit some candidates from the north to appease the public anger?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled lightly: "Hehe, although you are alert and know how to change things, you are naive here."

Xia Xun quickly bowed and said, "Yes."

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Isn't this move clearly telling the people of the world that the scientific research this spring is indeed correct, and the imperial court is afraid of the turmoil in the northern crowd, so it has to make this concession? The prestige and dignity of the imperial court will be wiped out. This move is inevitable. Encouraging the arrogance of some people, and intimidating the imperial court with similar actions in the future, how can the imperial court respond? Raise the butcher knife?"

Xia Xun was sweating profusely, bowed quickly and remained silent.

Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly: "Your science examination north and south rankings are indeed a good idea. It can avoid such a situation from happening again in the future, but it can't solve the current turmoil, it can't solve..."

The rain was falling, the curtains were hanging down in the hall, and the cool and humid wind rushed into the hall. Zhu Yuanzhang's old voice carried a murderous air...

"In the past, the parachutist Li Guang was defeated by Yanmen Mountain. He lost his troops and lost his general. He was dismissed as a civilian. He retired from Lantian Nanshan. He used to shoot and hunt for entertainment. One day, he went hunting in the mountains and returned drunk. It was curfew time to guard the Baling of Baling. Wei banned him from passing, and Li Guang's subordinates said by name: "This is the original General Li." Baling Wei reprimanded: "Even the current general is not allowed to commit night travel, let alone you are the former general?"

Li Guang had no choice but to sleep under the pavilion and wait for the dawn.

Soon, the Xiongnu invaded the Central Plains again and defeated the Han army. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty worshiped Li Guang as the prefect of Youbeiping and led the troops to defend against the enemy.When Li Guang took office, the first thing he did was to transfer Ba Lingwei to his army, and when Ba Lingwei arrived, he immediately killed him with a knife to vent his personal anger.

Is he wrong?wrong!He wrote a letter to plead guilty, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not punish him. He also issued an imperial edict to comfort him, praising him for his bravery and integrity.Didn't Emperor Wu of the Han know that he had committed a capital crime?I know, but he is not guilty. When the imperial court employs people, in the face of the safety of the country and thousands of people, Li Guang is guilty, not guilty!Ba Lingwei is not guilty, it can be a crime!

Li Guang's youngest son Li Gan, as a school lieutenant, from the hussar general attacked Hu Zuo Xian Wang, fought vigorously, captured Zuo Xian Wang's drum flag, beheaded many people, conferred the title of Marquis of Guannei, and replaced Li Guang as Lang Zhongling, with great achievements.Because he suspected that his father's death was related to the general Wei Qing, he beat Wei Qing severely, but Wei Qing was kind and did not speak out.

Later, Wei Qing's nephew Huo Qubing learned of the matter, so he took the opportunity to accompany the emperor to shoot the Oasis Palace, and shot and killed Lang Zhongling (the chief of the imperial guard) Li Gan with one arrow.In front of the emperor, he dared to shoot Lang Shenling and Li Gan in front of the emperor just because his uncle had been beaten up. Was Huo Qubing guilty?Guilty, but Wei Qing is old, Guo Lai champion Hou, Huo Qubing is guilty, not guilty!Li Gan is not guilty, but it can be a crime! "

Xia Xun listened quietly, for a long time, there was another thunder, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up with the thunder: "Liu Sanwu, Zhang Xin, they are all scholars, they stick to their beliefs, their way, no Wrong. But I am the Son of Heaven, and what I care about is the whole world; what I want to manage is the tens of thousands of people in my Ming Dynasty; what I want to maintain is the stability of the thousands of miles of land, and I am not wrong. Miscalculation! There is nothing wrong, you can be wrong!"

"I have decreed that the Ministry of Criminal Justice must handle this case. Yang Xu, you are very nice and sensible. You can do something for me. You go to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and meet Liu Sanwu and Zhang Xin. If they are willing to admit their mistakes and make concessions, I can spare them from dying, this is the last chance I gave them..."

The heavy rain was pouring, especially for the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.The light in the prison was dim, and the humid air smelled of rot. No one was too lazy to move in such a place.The prisoners were all lazily sitting and lying down, and the patrolling cell boss also returned to the exit, sat on the table, took out a bag of fried beans, took a gourd of wine, ate beans and drank, and killed the time.

Rivers of rain have already formed on the street, this torrential rain is really not small.In such a heavy rain, there was a man who came on a fast horse, wearing a coir raincoat, so he couldn't see his appearance clearly.

When the horse arrived at the door, the man got off his horse, led the horse to the dripping eaves, tied up the horse, and then walked into the door.

"What?"

Two jailers greeted them lazily, and the man unbuttoned his coir raincoat, revealing a bright red flying fish robe.The two guards looked solemn, and the man raised his hand and handed over a sign, and said in a deep voice, "I'm coming from the palace, take me to see Lord Liu Sanwu."

The two guards looked distressed: "This" brother, there is no summons from the main hall of the Ministry of Punishment. Our brother is very embarrassed.A palace wearing card can only prove that brother is a servant in the palace, but it cannot prove..."

The man snorted again: "I'm told by the emperor that it's raining so hard, you want me to go to the Ministry of Punishments first?"

"This……"

The two hesitated for a while, and the man said decisively: "Lead the way ahead."

The two had no choice but to take a book. There is a number on the back of the palace plate. The two guards first copied down the number of Xia Xun's plate number, and then said with a smile: "The two of us are responsible, please invite the brothers here." Sign your name."

Xia Xun had no choice but to take the pen, and hastily wrote the word "Yang Xu" on the foil. He is a fake student, and his handwriting is terrible. Fortunately, the two jailers don't know his details. As for warriors, many generals in the imperial court were blind and illiterate, so it is not surprising.

Seeing that Xia Xun had finished signing, the two of them took their umbrellas, and each of them walked across the patio to the cell.

The door opened with a bang, and the prison chief who was eating wine and chewing beans was startled, and hurriedly put the beans back into his arms. Fortunately, it was dark inside, and the three people who broke in were busy putting away their umbrellas, and did not see.Taking this opportunity, the prison chief put away the wine gourd again, stood up and said: "What's the matter, it's raining so hard, and the prisoner is still mentioned in the hall?"

A jailer said: "It's not the court mentioning people, but someone from the palace who wants to ask Liu Sanwu."

After speaking, he turned around and smiled politely at Xia Xun: "Brother, if you go further in, it will be inconvenient for us brothers to go, please follow the king."

The cell boss heard that he was from the palace, looked at his clothes again, quickly put on a smiling face, nodded and said: "What's the name of this brother?"

"Yang!"

"Brother Yang, please, please, this way please."

Going forward, there is a gate made of pig iron, the gate is as thick as a cup, and the prison chief Wang clattered on the gate with a large bunch of keys surrounded by copper rings: "Open the door, open the door quickly! "

After a while, a sleepy jailer walked out of the cell inside. Seeing the prison boss calling for the door, he hurriedly opened the fence from inside. The prison boss Wang led Xia Xun into the prison area and walked deep.

Liu Sanwu was alone in a cell, and the conditions inside were not bad. Of course, this was not bad compared to other cells. No matter how much Bao Zhao tried to take care of this scholarly leader, the cell would not become an inn.

Liu Sanwu had been stripped of his official uniform and was wearing prison clothes. He was resting on the couch when he heard footsteps stop in front of his prison door. Liu Sanwu opened his eyes and sat up slowly.

"Open the cell door."

Xia Xun gave orders, and the prison chief hurriedly took the key to open the cell door. Xia Xun walked in and said to him, "I have something to say to Master Liu alone."

The head of the Wang prison has been guarding the prison all his life. He doesn't understand anything. He doesn't want to get involved in the affairs of the palace even if you beg him. A little man has the wisdom of a little man. The tiger is chasing.

"What are you doing here?"

Seeing Xia Xun's official uniform, Liu Sanwu recognized him. This was the guard with a knife who stood in front of the throne in the early court.

"The emperor ordered
