"hiss!"
The old man ate the snails very neatly. The snails fried with green onion and ginger still made a hissing sound in his mouth, and then only a shell was left, which the old man spat out.
Zhu Yunxi really has no talent for eating this thing. He is so fussy from the back, and he often can only get half of it out when he sucks from the front.
"I gave you the snails to eat, but it was a waste!" The old man glanced at Zhu Yunxi, and threw another one into his mouth, "When you were a child, we saw that you were still clever, but now that you are older, you don't like it!"
As he said that, his eyes suddenly saw Liu Jin.
Liu Jin held a bamboo stick in his hand and picked up the snails one by one. Not only did he eat them himself, he also threw them at his feet to feed the dogs.
The old man said again, "Look at how smart this kid Liu Jin is! He knows how to say something but can't use a bamboo stick! Unlike you, who is stubborn and hard-working!"
When children and grandchildren grow up, in the heart of the elderly, they are not only used to feel pain, but also used to insult and scold them.
Zhu Yunxi didn't say anything after hearing this. He lowered his head and ate silently. He threw a snail into his mouth and murmured for a long time, but there was no response at all. When he spit it out, it was empty.
Look at Liu Jin again, lowering his head and smiling evilly.
No need to think about it, it was just this brat who picked up the empty snail shells and put them on the plate again when the adults were not paying attention.
Zhu Yunxi glanced at him, and then the old man continued to ask, "How was the scientific examination?"
"Before my grandson came here, he was reading the top ten test papers submitted by the Hanlin examiners!" Zhu Yunxi said, "To recruit scholars in this subject, in addition to the lectures on the Five Classics, more emphasis is placed on policy theory!"
"Hmm!" The old man nodded and said again, "Among the top ten papers, are there more people from the south or from the north?"
"There are still more people in the south!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "After decades of war in the north, the vitality of the population has not yet recovered." After saying that, he paused, "My grandson has implemented the policy of sharing the land with the land. In the five northern provinces,
This is also the reason why we move the fastest, there are still few people in the North!"
According to the last national population yellow list in the 28th year of Hongwu's reign, the population of Wusheng in the north was only 16 million. The population of the whole country was about 65 million.
"There are few people, so just have children. As long as the people have enough to eat and have land to grow crops at home, the population will increase in ten or twenty years!" The old man said while squeezing the snails and closing his eyes, "We remember that in the 20th year of Hongwu
In the seventh year of Nake, the second place was from Shaanxi. Among the 30 people in the top 20, there were two from Shaanxi and one from Henan. Among the 66 people in the top 3, 17 people from the five northern provinces were selected!"
Zhu Yunxi knew that the old man had something to say, so he put down his chopsticks and listened seriously.
"Grandpa Huang has such a good memory!"
The old man still had his eyes closed, "Although there are many southerners who have won, but in the past twenty years, only one person from Huguang has not been successful!" He said, paused, "That's Huguang!"
"Grandpa Huang, what do you mean?" Zhu Yunxi already understood the underlying meaning of the old man's words.
"We are retreating. I don't want to say this. You are old after all. If I say too much, you will feel unhappy!" The old man opened his eyes, "But my eldest grandson, you need to be careful of the grouping of scholars from Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi.
"
As he spoke, he sighed and said, "They are the imperial censors of the Qing Dynasty, and they are also the local officials. In the country and the dynasty, the northern land is withering and the world's literary style is not strong, so we have to select those famous scholars from the local areas to serve as officials!"
"Since then, the officialdom has been intricately intertwined, and anyone can have a relationship with anyone. If this continues, it will not be a blessing to the country!"
From the perspective of an overall overview, the emperor cannot allow one faction to dominate.
Just like the Huaixi nobles among warriors, they should suppress when they should be suppressed. Zhu Yunxi understood this truth and often took it as a warning. You must know that the original Ming Dynasty suffered greatly from it.
Officials are cronies. They consider themselves to be gentlemen, but if they are not on their side, they will be labeled as villains. They have controlled the government for a long time and controlled the country's financial and personnel power.
Therefore, it is said that the fall of the Ming Dynasty lies in party struggle.
The embryonic form and source of party struggle is to form a group and seize the right to speak.
"My grandson thinks so too!" Zhu Yunxi pondered for a few breaths before saying, "Since my grandson came to the throne, the situation in the court seems to be calm, but in fact there are undercurrents. The veterans of Huaixi in the army have retired one after another, and the civil servants have come up.
.”
"Furthermore," Zhu Yunhe paused as he spoke, "the elites in the court, especially the academicians and the Hanlin Academy, all regard themselves as former ministers of the East Palace, and they are vaguely arrogant."
"There are even many people in the court who have deep ties to the place. My grandson also thought it was time to beat them up!"
The old man opened his eyes, "How to start? Who will perform the surgery?"
"Tie Xuan is at Z place"
"That's too slow!" The old man tapped his thick fingers on the table, interrupting Zhu Yunxi's words, "It's easy to deal with the strong and powerful in this place, but if they don't cut it off at the root, it will still happen sooner or later!"
Zhu Yunxi suddenly realized something, "What do you mean, directly in the center?"
"Yes!" The old man nodded, "Dasun, you are an emperor of peace who has never experienced wind and rain. Sometimes you think too much, and the more you think, the more you worry. There are some things you want to take your time, but...
, some things are always faster than you think! The slower you are, the faster it is!"
"It seems that the central government's Qing Dynasty and the matters at Z have not involved any senior officials from the capital. But that's not to say that it's not involved. It's because Tie Xuan reported it to you and you didn't handle it, right?"
"I can't hide anything from you!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile.
Indeed, when Tie Xuan was investigating human smuggling in Tianmu and those wealthy families, he found many cases of high-ranking officials in the capital. These people were secretly in touch with the local people, and their actions were all hidden in the case of Zhu Yunxi.
.
If you don't deal with them now, it's not because you don't have enough time, but because you're waiting to be punished for multiple crimes later.
"The scientific examination and what we are talking about may seem incompatible, but they are actually the same thing!" The old man continued, "No matter what the local situation, it is all connived and protected by the central government. The purpose of obtaining scholars in the scientific examination is for the country, not to let them
Those who stick together win people's hearts!"
Zhu Yunxi was shocked, the old man's meaning was already obvious.
It is no longer as simple as suppressing North Korean and Chinese civil servants. It is also about attacking a group of people based on the scientific examination. To be precise, it is a group of people.
"We've been thinking about this for a long time!" The old man threw another snail into his mouth and murmured, "It's definitely not a big deal, so I really can't let you personally take part in this matter."
, suddenly laughed, "Otherwise, you will get a bad reputation!"
Then he smiled again and said, "But we are different. We don't have a damn good reputation in this life!"
His smiling face suddenly froze, and the snail spit out of his mouth and cursed, "Who threw the finished shell on the plate!"
Liu Jin lowered his head at the side and smiled evilly.
"You brat!" The old man lovingly held him on his knees and pinched his nose, "You are so bad that your ancestor will eat up all the fuss!"
