MTL - Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao-Chapter 362 With clever means, the reactionary civil servants were hacked! (seventh

  Chapter 362 Brilliant means to get reactionary officials hacked! (seventh more)

  When Lu Zuanzu in the south looked north by the Yangtze River and cried, Wu Weiye in the north looked south and sighed at the Qionglin Banquet.

   "Why did it fail? Is the revival of Neo Confucianism and the restoration of the ancestral system really hopeless?"

   "When will the southern rebels enter the Central Plains and control Yanyun?!"

Although obedient to the reality, Wu Weiye, who knew that the puppet dynasty in the south could not compete with the court, did not choose to go to the south, but went to Beijing to participate in the imperial examination. The current imperial court must at least force the current imperial court to abolish the new law, restore the old system, and continue to uphold morality and respect.

  So, Wu Weiye has actually been paying attention to the war in the south.

  Before this, he was secretly delighted and secretly celebrated when he learned that Yang Sichang had failed in the first battle.

  At that time, he was in a happier mood than he was now a Jinshi attending the Qionglin Banquet.

  But what Wu Weiye didn't expect was that the result would be soon, and the puppet dynasty in the south that he secretly supported would be defeated immediately!

  Even the supervisor Gao Chongjian was killed!

What's even more hateful is that Yang Sichang, a civil servant on his side, became more frustrated and courageous when he conquered the small imperial court that respected Neo-Confucianism and restored the ancestral system, and he was not discouraged. Instead, he changed his mind and asked the emperor to abolish the new law. Instead, he asked himself to be a general and a pioneer, and became the number one warrior who defeated the southern puppet army and killed the southern governor!

Wu Weiye's level in the Ming court was not high enough, and he knew limited high-level information, so he didn't know that Yang Sichang was forced to become a military general, but he only thought that Yang Sichang was actively asking for the civil servants to suppress those rebels who respected principles and ceremonies. Turning to martial arts, even disregarding his dignity and death, he was the first to charge the battle, and then defeated the rebels.

   After all, the newspapers said that it was Yang Sichang who took the initiative to ask for crimes and meritorious service.

   And because of this, Wu Weiye hated Yang Sichang deeply.

  I also feel sad for the defeat of the puppet dynasty in the south, and I can't help but sigh in my heart.

  Therefore, Wu Weiye did not feel any joy at all because he was now a Jinshi.

   What's more, he was able to win the Jinshi because he said in an article against his will that he supported practical learning, and supported the concept of flowing water without corruption, household hinges and non-cups.

  Even if he was selected as the second place in the palace examination because he was the leader of the Chinese liberal arts department, he was directly admitted to the Imperial Academy.

  Especially, when Wu Weiye learned that the number one scholar, Jiexuan, was named the number one scholar because he was number one in arithmetic, and was above his own.

  He really couldn't accept that people with outstanding Confucianism writings are not as good as those who are outstanding in arithmetic!

   But in Zhang Gui's opinion, Jie Xuan, who later became a mathematician and military theorist in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, was indeed more valuable than someone with outstanding literary talent like Wu Weiye, so he insisted on making Jie Xuan the champion.

  But what Wu Weiye didn't know was how much Lu Zuanzu, who is now in the south, envied him.

  Wu Weiye sang a few poems at the Qionglin Banquet against his will, flattered the benefits of the reform against his will, and went home.

On the way home, Wu Weiye saw many artisans and common people in the capital appearing on the street in fancy clothes, and even discussing the new book "Encyclopedia" co-edited by Xu Guangqi and Uncle Zhang Guo outside his carriage. When, it is even more depressing:

   "Miscellaneous learning is rampant, etiquette is bad, and common people craftsmen also wear brocade clothes. Such a peaceful and prosperous age is simply nondescript! In such a world, the common people can also wear silk, so what is the point of us officials, gentlemen and officials wearing silk and satin!"

  Wu Weiye has decided that after he becomes an official, he does not need to be active in his official career. After an official dies, he can just compile and write history books and write articles. He will only show his ambitions when the world changes in the future.

And he decided that after completing the imperial examination, the first article he wrote would be to ridicule Yang Sichang, ridicule Yang Sichang's abandonment of literature and military affairs, and self-deprecation, and then insinuate that today's scholar-officials are weak and incompetent. Destroy Confucianism and destroy the old system!

   "Raging the crown is a new law!"

  Yang Sichang saw Wu Weiye wrote an article in the newspaper praising the first warrior of the Ming Dynasty, and the poem attached to him at the end of the article, he immediately gnashed his teeth and tore the newspaper to pieces.

And he also knew that all of this was caused by Uncle Zhang Guo, so he secretly cursed: "This uncle Guo really kills people without blood! But he will never know what it feels like to be the number one warrior of Ming Dynasty in my heart, Yang Sichang. Bar?"

"Wu Weiye's literary talent is really remarkable! Articles like this praising me as the number one warrior in the Ming Dynasty will be published more often, and Yang Sichang can be regarded as a model of abandoning pen to join the army and abandoning writing to join the military. The scholars of the Ming Dynasty can truly restore the style of the Han and Tang Dynasties, like Ban Dingyuan, like the final army of the Han Dynasty!"

   Zhang Gui naturally knew Yang Sichang's true feelings, but he just pretended not to know, and often praised Yang Sichang's bravery, making everyone in the world think that Yang Sichang had voted for him.

"Encouraging scholars to practice martial arts is indeed beneficial to the current national policy of opening up borders and benefiting the people. After all, in the future, after many scholars are recruited as officials, most of them will go to the newly established territories of Nanyang to serve as officials. army, it will be difficult to fulfill the responsibility of defending the land and protecting the people of Ming Dynasty.”

  Yuan Keli added at this time.

As the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he has already discovered that there is a huge shortage of officials that the Ming Dynasty needs to send abroad, and there are indeed high requirements for the officials who guard the newly added territory in terms of personal physique and military quality, so he raised it at this time .

Zhang Gui followed suit and said, "What's more, nowadays the borders are mainly connected by sea, which is not like land. It's hard to predict whether there will be a sudden appearance of pirates, so it is even more necessary for officials to be better at commanding military affairs. "

Yuan Keli nodded, and said: "I have to admit that there are very few scholars like this now. In fact, there are very few who are good at running the army, even if they are good at running the people! It is easy to be a clean official, but difficult to be a capable minister. There are not many officials to choose from. In addition, even if the imperial court expands the number of Jinshi admissions, there is still a shortage of officials. After all, if officials are only selected within the Kyushu, there will be no shortage of officials, but now officials are selected from the entire world. It won't be enough all at once!"

   "Since I have come to this point, I think it is better to reform the official system so that subordinate staff can also become officials?"

   Zhang Gui asked after speaking.

  Yuan Keli, Chen Zizhuang, Han Yu and other civil servants from the Planning Department were taken aback.

   This is a big challenge for civil servants like them who were born as Jinshi!

  After all, allowing subordinate officials to become officials is equivalent to giving away part of the power cake that belongs to them alone, and giving it to subordinate officials who have direct contact with the people at the grassroots level!

  This kind of behavior of cutting flesh on oneself is naturally difficult to face calmly.

   But the problem is that now that the cake is increasing, there is no longer enough for these Jinshi scholars to eat. If some of them are not distributed, the ruling system cannot be made more stable.

Therefore, Zhang Gui continued to say: "Although the subordinate officials are many treacherous people who are harmful to the people, they are also the key to the implementation of the government's decrees. Over the years, they have been forcing the subordinate officials to implement the New Deal by means of coercion. Let them take the initiative to implement the New Deal."

"What's more, they actually know the people better than we do. They need to carry out the next more in-depth reforms. We can't just eat meat and let them drink soup, and we can't let them only eat soup without meat. Opportunity."

"Everyone is enterprising, and one's enterprising spirit cannot be extinguished. Kings and generals, would they rather have kindness? This is the concept of my Han family since ancient times. If people are not allowed to have the opportunity to be appointed as marquises, they will Want to be king."

   "What do you think?"

   Zhang Gui asked after speaking.
