Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1164 Millennium plan

  The academicians were more ruthless in their strikes. When they rushed up, someone first clenched their fists and punched Wu Yan directly in the face.

  Wu Yan yelled, but he didn't know whether he lost his balance or fell backward tactically, and fell to the ground with his ass.

  Followed by punches and kicks like drumbeats, and hearing something whistling mixed with strong wind, Wu Yan subconsciously blocked it with his hands on his head.

  pong...

   A huge force came.

   Good guy, and brought a guy here.

  Wu Yan screamed in pain, and shouted: "Master...save me...Master, save me..."

  How did he know that the princes had already escaped completely.

   After a short time, Wu Yan's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, his hand bones seemed to be broken, and all he could do was cry: "Please forgive me, please forgive me..."

   It took half a cup of tea.

  Academicians are not stupid.

   This is called a passionate fight, and it is about a law that does not punish the public. Seeing that Wu Yan is almost dying, there are guards and eunuchs watching from a distance at the Meridian Gate, and he dare not go forward for a long time.

  The imperial guards are not afraid of a group of scholars, but such a group of academicians, wearing the imperial-given flying fish suit and the imperial-given unicorn suit, who would dare to go up and make trouble.

After watching the academicians disperse in a hurry, a team of guards went up, and seeing the lonely Wu Yan lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, not knowing whether he was alive or not, only then did some people have the courage to face the long gone back. He shouted: "You are not allowed to hit people."

Wu Yan was in pain all over his body, he just felt like he was going to die, he was gasping for breath, his mouth was bloody, he spit out a tooth, his eyes were black and blue, he wanted to raise his hand to wipe his tears, but found that his hand was broken, and he moved it , suddenly a heartache.

   Several guards wanted to hug him up: "Quick, call the doctor."

  Just one movement, the severe pain permeated the whole body, Wu Yan let out a cry, but couldn't help but faint immediately: "Don't move, don't move, don't move me..."

   "Let me die..." He was vague, spitting **** liquid from his mouth: "It's fine to die..."

  Finally, I couldn't hold on any longer, my vision went dark, and I passed out completely.

   There had been eunuchs for a long time, so they went to Chongwen Hall.

  ...

Emperor Hongzhi leaned back on his chair, looked at the memorial carefully, and was taken aback in his heart. Thousands of skilled craftsmen, countless experiments, and seven ships for the experiments alone. Countless, modified and modified, scrapped and recast... The manpower and material resources used...

  Emperor Hongzhi hardly dared to watch it.

   Just to build this steamship?

   And the speed of this steamship seems to be pretty good, but these...Emperor Hongzhi didn't know much about ships after all, so he only looked at the general idea.

  When he was fascinated by it.

  But a **** came in a hurry: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

  Emperor Hongzhi interrupted his thoughts, looked up, and saw a little **** already prostrate on the ground: "What's the matter?"

  The **** said: "Outside...an academician of the Academy of Sciences beat Wu Yan, a servant of the Imperial Academy, hey, blood was all over his body, that... ruthless..." The eunuch's voice was trembling, obviously as a witness, he had lingering fears.

   Hitting someone?

  Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan.

  Fang Jifan stood aside, feeling like a dog in his heart. Isn't this ruining Fang Jifan's reputation? So many people beat one, is this still a human being? Why not one-on-one with Wu Yan in turn?

  Fang Jifan coughed: "Your Majesty, you can't slap a single hand."

  Emperor Hongzhi nodded, still holding the Memorial in his hand.

   Makes sense!

  He continued to pick up the memorial, looked straight at it, and said lightly: "Well, beating people is wrong."

   As he spoke, he continued to read the memorial.

  The **** raised his head, a little dazed.

  What does this mean? Hitting someone is wrong, so what's the next sentence?

   Waited for a long time, did not hear the next sentence, but Xiao Jing who was standing beside Emperor Hongzhi seemed to repel flies, waving his sleeves, the little **** understood, got up immediately, and tiptoed out.

After reading the memorial for a long time, Emperor Hongzhi put it down: "Okay, although I don't know what the function of this steamship will be after it goes into the sea, it is indeed limited to go to the West. people."

  Fang Jifan said modestly: "This is all because of His Majesty's wisdom."

  Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help saying: "Why did you switch to Zhen Yingming again?"

Fang Jifan said confidently: "If other emperors, my son dares to be so presumptuous, and study steamships with His Royal Highness without authorization, it is precisely because His Majesty is a holy emperor, magnanimous, discerning, and so on, so that ministers can give full play to their strengths. Therefore, this is in line with Your Majesty. Your Majesty's sageness is inseparable. My minister often said to His Majesty the Crown Prince, Your Majesty is soft and introverted, and governs the world with benevolence and filial piety. This minister was born at a good time. If not, he would have died long ago without a place to bury him. Your Majesty Being able to make the best use of things and people to make the best use of their talents is not a sage, what is it?"

  Emperor Hongzhi listened, and found it both pleasant and reasonable, but he was angry: "You talk too much."

  He had completely forgotten about Wu Yan, as if...he didn't bother to mention it at all, and then he said slowly: "This steamship, we need to continue to study it. If it is really beneficial to sailing to the West, I will reward you."

  Fang Jifan said: "I obey the order."

Emperor Hongzhi's face became flickering again: "A few days ago, I read Ouyang Zhi's report. Ouyang Zhi was in Baoding and Tongzhou, and he became more and more handy as the governor. He promoted many people. They are capable talents. I was thinking, what kind of talents do I, Ming, really need? Those petty officials, who were promoted to govern one side, were able to handle it with ease. Not only that, but they also had a good understanding of local affairs. Thoroughly, there are also rules and regulations to follow in the way of doing things. The parents and officials of this place inherit the order of the imperial court and put down the people. Whether the government's decree can be implemented and whether the local people can live and work in peace are closely related to them. The more I think about it , the more I feel... the limitations of scholars are really too great. If you are good at learning, you can be an official. If you study well, you can be an official. Then... this is like the prince. What's the difference?"

  Emperor Hongzhi showed a look of disappointment. For a long time, he had trusted the scholars very much, but this trust, he felt more and more betrayed.

  Emperor Hongzhi said again: "But... freezing three feet is not a one-day cold, how can it be so easy to change the course."

"I'm thinking, since Ouyang Qing's family has promoted many officials in Tongzhou and Baoding's New Deal, why not make a fuss about it, temporarily in this New Deal place, the imperial court will no longer appoint officials for imperial examinations, let Ouyang The Qing family should deal with it on their own, but if that’s all it is, it’s not allowed. It’s not a blessing for the country to have a single government. One thing is good about Baoding Mansion and Tongzhou, that is, no matter what it is, you can do whatever you want. Why not, Then draw up a detailed rule for the system of selecting officials, and implement it according to the regulations. What kind of person can be an official, and what kind of person can be promoted... You are the mentor of Ouyang Qing's family, first and He breathed a sigh of relief, and besides, you also need to consult Liu Qing's family and others, and when the time comes, give me a memorial."

  Fang Jifan understood what Emperor Hongzhi meant when he heard this.

  Emperor Hongzhi wanted to open up a new method of talent selection, and he already had a different view on the imperial examination.

   But the imperial examination cannot be abolished now, this is the fundamental interest of the scholars, if there is any trouble, the world must be in chaos.

   But Baoding Prefecture and Tongzhou are different. Some kind of experiment can be carried out in these two places.

The original imperial examination system is not applicable in the New Deal, but although the promoted officials are good, they have not formed a perfect normative system after all. In the future, if they want to use the new system to compete with the imperial examination system, the first thing to do is, It is to make this new system perfect and become a new kind of customization.

  Fang Jifan smiled wryly.

  Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Fang Jifan: "What is the Qing family doing with a wry smile?"

"I have cultivated a lot of talents. In the new system, it is inevitable that my disciples and grandchildren will benefit. But once this happens, the future of so many people who learn stereotypes in Xishan College of Literature will be unclear. The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are all sons and daughters." The meat of the minister."

   What this says...

  The implication is that…

  I, Fang Jifan, are not bragging. No matter what the rules are, I, Xishan Academy, will beat those scumbags outside the academy.

  Emperor Hongzhi glared at him: "Let's draw up a charter within a month."

  Fang Jifan said: "The minister there, go and ask Mr. Liu for advice."

  Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "Don't make it public."

   Of course you can't make it public.

  To be honest, this is tantamount to digging up the roots of scholars.

  Fang Jifan was originally their gravedigger, and I, Fang Jifan, have such a short temper. Come on, you have the guts to hit me.

But... Liu Jian is different. Liu Jian is the head of all officials and the leader of scholars. If someone knows that when Fang Jifan was digging their old graves, Liu Jian still made some suggestions and made great efforts behind his back. As soon as the news came out, those scholars were going to tear Liu Jian apart.

  Fang Jifan said righteously: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, my minister is very tight-lipped."

  He said goodbye, but he was not in a hurry to see Liu Jian. Instead, he closed the door immediately and summoned all his disciples, even Ouyang Zhi, and asked him to rush over from Baoding Mansion.

Looking at the five disciples, Fang Jifan sighed for a while, and said the true intention of Emperor Hongzhi, and then said: "This is a major event. This regulation will affect hundreds of thousands of years. How to draw up the regulation, you should express your opinions first, especially It's Ouyang Zhi, Ouyang Zhi..."

  Ouyang Zhi was silent for a moment, then said firmly: "The student is here."

"You have a unique talent. In this area, you have the most experience. You are the leader, and your other juniors will assist you. First draft it out and let the teacher see it. Then, we will discuss it one by one. ...This matter... don't release the news for the time being, I don't want to hit people as a teacher, the effect of force is mutual, and the fist will hurt."
