But Liu Xiu has a completely different way of thinking. Didn’t the Ming Dynasty have no money? Well, I’ll make the Ming Dynasty rich and move wherever it doesn’t work. At least from the present point of view, Liu Xiu’s method depends on Spectrum more.

Therefore, Yao Guangxiao completely sold himself to the Liu family, and he wanted to see with his own eyes how Liu Xiu changed this backwater.

The fourth child looked at Liu Xiu and said slightly angrily, "Sir, I think our strategy needs to be changed, we shouldn't pay those corrupt officials! They are so used to their rot! They have been greedy so much, let's pay them back." Salary increase, how about it?!"

Liu Xiu tapped the table with her fingers. To be honest, Yao Guangxiao's words surprised Liu Xiu.

Daming has only been founded for more than ten years. Liu Xiu really didn't expect that Daming would die so quickly, and corrupt officials have become rampant to this extent.

Indeed, as the fourth child said, if you don't suppress the arrogance of corrupt officials, no matter how much money you earn on your side, you are wiping the backs of corrupt officials.

"gentlemen!"

Liu Xiu said, "The big corrupt officials have to be beaten, and the small ones have to be appeased. The corrupt officials are not monolithic. If we fire indiscriminately like this, it will actually unite this group of corrupt officials."

Yao Guangxiao couldn't help but nodded.

The fourth child also sat down, saying that there is no difference between governing a country and fighting a war, unless the enemy can be killed in one shot, otherwise, the enemy cannot be pushed too hard.

"Then what shall we do, sir?"

"Your Majesty has a solution for the matter in Beijing. I reckon His Majesty wants to move Guo Heng, but there is no evidence of Guo Heng's corruption yet."

Yao Guangxiao echoed, "Presumably the account books of the household department have been made without any loopholes. Without the original account books, it is really difficult to manage."

and many more!

The original account book? !

Liu Xiu got up abruptly, what Yao Guangxiao said made Liu Xiu think of something instantly,

"Yes! The original account book!"

Yao Guangxiao asked, "Could it be that the master has the original account book of the household department?"

Liu Xiu said happily, "It's not that I have it, but that I know someone who has it!"

Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao were left with question marks on their faces, Liu Xiu wrote a letter with a flick of a pen and handed it to Yao Guangxiao,

"Hurry up, use the fastest horse and send it to Yingtian Mansion!"

Yao Guangxiao also realized the seriousness of the problem, and hurriedly went to work.

Zhu Di was puzzled, "Sir, is there still a loophole in the household department?"

Liu Xiu smiled, "Yes, we forgot an important person!"

"Who?"

"My father!"

"Your father?" Zhu Di suddenly realized, and laughed loudly, "So that's how it is! That's how it is! Now those moths in the household department will be dead!"

In the final analysis, Liu Xiu couldn't get involved in the affairs of the capital in Yandi, and it was already the limit to think of the usefulness of her father.

So, put that aside for now,

Liu Xiu looked at Zhu Di and asked, "Your Highness, how is the armed forces of the Shenji Battalion?"

As soon as Liu Xiu asked this question, Zhu Di immediately brightened his eyes, "I have made a hundred bursting firecrackers now, and I have selected a hundred elites for urgent training. The long-distance firecrackers are also good, but human eyes can't see them." It’s not that far away, as for the Bolide, the attack distance is too short, so looking at it like this, it’s better to use the Burst of Burst.”

Liu Xiu scratched her head and asked casually, "Your Highness, are the Shenji Battalion infantry?"

Zhu Di was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly thought of something clearly.

Yup!

Who stipulated that the Shenji Battalion must be infantry? !

Even if the attack distance is short, wouldn't riding a horse make up for this shortcoming? !

I rely on!

Wouldn't it be enough to turn the Shenji Battalion into cavalry? !

Think about riding a horse and charging, after getting close to the enemy, take out the shotgun and spray it, and one face-to-face can directly destroy all the enemies!

When Zhu Di thought of this scene, he trembled with excitement, "Sir, you are a fucking genius! No way! I have to go back and try!"

Before Liu Xiu opened his mouth, Zhu Di couldn't wait to leave. Seeing his father leaving, Zhu Gaochi shouted childishly,

"Father, I'm not going home tonight~"

Zhu Di's voice came from afar, "Okay, you can stay here!"

"Great!"

Liu Xiu smiled, dealing with smart people is easy,

Zhu Di, Yao Guangxiao, ghost hands... no matter what they say, as long as they do a little bit, they will understand, and they can do it better.

Wan'er and her little follower Zhu Gaochi ran to Liu Xiu one after the other, looking at Liu Xiu eagerly,

"Brother~ Wan'er has a question I don't understand~"

Zhu Gaochi continued to ask, "Why does the executioner spray wine on the knife before beheading?"

Liu Xiu patted the heads of the two children and said with a smile, "The Gu Ding knife and wine kills have high damage. If this is the case, you don't have to worry about not killing the bad guys with one knife!"

The two children looked at each other, as if they knew the mysteries of the universe, Zhu Gaochi said excitedly,

"So that's the case! I asked the gentlemen in the mansion, but they couldn't answer! Ancient ingot knives and wine kills have high damage! I remember it!"

"Hey, let me say that my brother must know!"

Zhu Gaochi nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and looked at Liu Xiu adoringly,

"Brother Liu Xiu, you really are the most powerful person in the world!"

Liu Xiu coughed twice guiltily, "Eh, you guys go and play..."

Chapter 142 The evildoer is rampant!

After fooling Wan'er and Zhu Gaochi away.

Liu Xiu patted the dust on his body, and then started to pick up the Four Books and Five Classics and started babbling again. Speaking of which, when he was studying in the previous life, he really didn't calm down and read these Confucian classics carefully.

The knowledge I have learned is directly told by others, for example, the professors in the university tell me how, that is to say, most of what I absorb is the knowledge summed up by others, not the result of my own thinking. ,

This may be the big difference between the ancients and the modern people. It is true that the vision of the modern people is much wider than that of the ancients, but this is also the result of technology. In terms of the depth of understanding of a thing, I am afraid that the modern people are not as good.

In short, reading during this period of time gave Liu Xiu a lot of insights.

Confucian things are not as unbearable as later generations say.

While thinking about it, Dong Naihe came over, "Nowadays, all the poems and books are regarded as Zhu Ben, and your reading is not right."

Since Jing Gong (Wang Anshi) of the Song Dynasty innovated the study, the content of the imperial examination has been completely determined. Not only the bibliography depends on a specific book, but also the composition format must be written in stereotyped essays.

Speaking of it, Wang Anshi's move really standardized the imperial examinations and prevented the unfairness caused by the arbitrary content of the imperial examinations in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Therefore, stereotyped selection of scholars was the best policy in the Song Dynasty. sour

I'm afraid even Jinggong himself could not have imagined that stereotyped writing could be used in the Ming and Qing dynasties like this. In the Ming Dynasty, there were already signs of rigid thinking, and in the Qing Dynasty, it was even more extreme. The Manchus completely regarded the imperial examination as a way to enslave the people. tool,

Therefore, although they are all imperial examinations, the imperial examinations of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Song Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty are all completely different things.

Liu Xiu turned the pages of the book and smiled, "I'll just take a look."

Dong Naihe picked up the pages of the book and said in surprise, "Ancient Wenjing version? Where did you get this?!"

Since the dispute between the present and the ancient Wenjing in the Han Dynasty, the version of the Four Books and the Five Classics has been mostly used in the Jinwenjing version. This Jinwenjing is the Confucian classics written in official script that were handed down orally by those great Confucians after Qin Shihuang burned the books.

The ancient texts are the scriptures hidden in the Qin Dynasty found in the walls of the houses of the descendants of Confucius in the Han Dynasty. These scriptures are written in seal script, so they are also called the ancient texts.

The difference between the two is extremely obvious. The ancient Wenjing is the most authentic Confucian classic, while the Jinwenjing contains too many private goods.

Later dynasties respected Confucianism, and the Four Books and Five Classics used were all Jinwen Jing, which was full of private affairs, and the emperor used it like this, I am afraid that even Confucius would not be able to understand it after his resurrection.

"His Royal Highness Yan Wang got it for me."

"Drink! This is a good thing! Don't say it's me, even my father hasn't read it! According to my father, his husband has only read the ancient text of Shangshu once! What is this?"

"The Book of Songs."

"Tsk tsk tsk, a masterpiece! Can't tell, this war-loving His Royal Highness King Yan still has such elegance?"

Dong Naihe has no taboos in his mouth, and it is common for him to ridicule the emperor and scold the prostitute, and to sneer at the King of Yan. Liu Xiu heard Dong Naihe's eyes,

"You'll lose your head sooner or later because of this mouth."

"Cut~ Anyway, I'm also a talent."

"When His Majesty wants to kill you, will your status as a scholar be useful? Do you think this is the Song Dynasty? Can't you punish a scholar-bureaucrat?"

Dong Nai and Wen Yan shook quickly,

That's right, don't say that you are a scholar, I'm afraid even if you are the champion, if you offend His Majesty, your head will still be lost!

"By the way," Dong Naihe hurriedly changed the subject, "You are also a scholar now."

Liu Xiu hummed lightly, and Dong Naihe looked at Liu Xiu with envious eyes, "It's really hard to compare people to others. I was so weak in the exam for a scholar back then."

Liu Xiu scratched her head. A scholar is considered a reserve for the imperial examination. Only after passing the imperial examination and having the status of a scholar can he be considered qualified to participate in the imperial examination. However, the fourth child still has the power to hold the imperial examination as a vassal king.

Originally, the fourth brother wanted to directly give Liu Xiu the status of a scholar, but Liu Xiu refused to agree. The fourth child had no choice but to bring the test paper to Liu Xiu. After Liu Xiu finished answering, the status of a scholar was determined on the spot ,

In the final analysis, it was the fourth child who played with his privileges.

However, there is no need for Liu Xiu to say these words in a big way, as it will inevitably cause rumors, although the fourth child doesn't care about them.

"The township examination will be in two days, let's go together." Dong Naihe leaned over and said.

"Are you going too?" Liu Xiu changed his mind, how could Dong Naihe not go to the imperial examination because he has a father who is a great Confucian?

"Then what are you talking about, but I reckon, I'm just going through the motions, and people from several prefectures take the exam together, and there are only a few places. Who can snatch them? What's more, there are people like you Monsters exist."

Liu Xiu's eyes flickered. He had passed the imperial examination several times, which is the norm for these candidates. This is quite similar to the current postgraduate entrance examination.

Alas, being a cow and horse in any age has to roll!

Dong Nai lay on the ground with his back and forth, and entered the fantasy time, "Speaking of which, there has never been a three-yuan in our Ming Dynasty. If I can win three yuan in a row, I'm afraid my old man will go crazy with joy! Hehe!"

"It's only been a few years since the dynasty was established, so it's normal not to have three yuan."

"That's right. There were several ternary yuan in the previous dynasty, so it's not too much for us Daming to come out with a dozen ternary yuan!"

Liu Xiu laughed awkwardly,
