Princess Ningguo was scolded by the old man and left in tears.
The dumplings on the table were still steaming, but neither of them was in the mood to eat anymore. You looked at me and I looked at you, staring at each other.
"Grandpa Huang!" Zhu Yunxi smiled bitterly and ordered people to take away the smashed things and replace them with new ones. He said with a smile, "You...why bother? You have something to say, so you are so angry.
You see, I’m scaring my second aunt!”
The old man sat with a sullen face, "Get rid of these nonsense! She is a woman, but she has learned to plead! Is the national law child's play?"
"How can the family, country and world be so clearly divided!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile.
"Then you have to be able to distinguish between good and evil!" The old man said in a dull voice, "If it wasn't for the sake of the prince-in-law, if it wasn't for the sake of those bastard boys, how could this matter pass so easily? We gave them enough face.
But they don’t understand our painstaking efforts!”
Zhu Yunxi was quite disgusted with the matter of Princess Ning Guo's plea. What could the royal family do? They were just like ordinary people. Some parents had their own affairs, some had personal relationships, some could not escape it, and some did not know the depth of it.
In military and national affairs, one can attack decisively and decisively, but when faced with the indiscriminate interference of one's own relatives, it is even more difficult to make a decision than in dealing with military and national affairs.
It’s easy to make a decision, but it’s mainly annoying!
"Grandpa Huang, these meritorious children caused trouble today, which reminded my grandson of something!" Zhu Yunxi sat down and said.
The old man took another cold dumpling and said while eating, "Say, we are listening!"
"In the capital, the children of meritorious families, legitimate sons and concubines, nephews, nephews, etc., add up to eight hundred if not one thousand!" Zhu Yunxi said slowly, "These people have nothing to do when they are full of food and drink. Men, when they are idle,
When they get together, they will do bad things!"
"My grandson asked others and found out that these bastards were either racing horses, fighting in groups, or running rampant in the market. They didn't make big mistakes, but they made small mistakes all the time. So my grandson thought, let's just gather them together and take good care of them!"
The old man swallowed the dumpling and said, "Why do we care? Their father doesn't care, so why should we care?"
"My grandson thought, why don't we build a school and let them all study there!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile.
The old man was startled, and then he laughed out loud as if he had heard a big joke.
"They have private schools at home, official schools in the court, and the Imperial College. These are ready-made, and they don't care if you ask them for help. What are you going to build? To test them for scholars?"
"My grandson knows the virtues of these people, but their reading of the Four Books and Five Classics is a waste of the knowledge of our ancestors. What my grandson wants to build is martial arts!" After saying that, Zhu Yunxi looked at the old man's expression and continued, "They are all martial artists.
My disciples have been exposed to martial arts since childhood. They have practiced martial arts since childhood, learned riding and shooting, and have some knowledge of literature. They are all good candidates to become military commanders!"
"Instead of letting them wander around like this, it is better to establish a martial arts school in the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion. You can choose a tough-faced commander to take charge, compile the battles from the founding of the Ming Dynasty to the present, and the battles of the past dynasties, and teach these bastards how to lead troops.
How to arrange your troops, march and fight!"
"It's not about coaxing, it's about selecting the best among the meritorious students. The school sets four exams in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the results are posted on the list. If you do well in the exam, the court will reward you, and you will always receive praise. If you do not do well in the exam, you will be rewarded.
Yes, their family’s face is disgraceful.”
"In our army of the Ming Dynasty, there are many veterans who have been fighting all their lives. They are here to serve as lecturers. Anyone who disobeys will be whipped! Young people love face. Even if they cannot become talents, it is better than hanging around in the capital!"
"Since then, there have been fewer tyrannical villains in the capital, and the country has gained more seeds of famous generals. We have achieved multiple things with one stone!"
The old man pondered for a long time, "This method is not bad. It was also used during the war. Our adopted sons and nephews all learned this way, and they all grew up this way!"
"It's because the emperor's grandfather Zhu Yu was in front of me that my grandson can have such unconventional opinions!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "There are many empty houses in the mansion of the Governor of the Fifth Army. Just renovate the courtyard and it will be enough to serve as a school. Everyone
We are all sons of meritorious deeds, and we don’t need any subsidies from the court.”
"What do you mean, after they finish their studies, let them go to lead soldiers in the army?" The old man asked the basic question, "But national titles are important weapons and should not be awarded lightly! So many brave men in the army cannot be promoted. Here,
If you just study martial arts for a few days and then become an official, who will accept it?"
Zhu Yunxi said, "My grandson just said that there are four exams every year, and the top students will be selected. If you don't do well in the four exams, it means you are hopeless and hopeless, and there is no need to be placed in the military. Top students are not directly recruited.
If you are an officer, you will be placed in the army and trained for another one or two years to develop your temperament and then be promoted!"
In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the reason why the war was difficult was not only that the inheritance of the warriors was cut off. More importantly, the warriors had no way to advance and were completely suppressed by the civil officials.
"Students have official education from various places, and they have imperial examinations to select scholars!" Zhu Yunxi continued with a smile, "Martial men should also have martial arts. It is said that forgetting to fight will be in danger. One civility and one martial arts are the two feet of the Ming Dynasty. Only two feet are stable. We
Only in the Ming Dynasty can it be done properly!”
"The imperial court opens up academic courses to recruit scholars to seek talents for the country. Martial arts trains generals who are also the pillars of the country. By then, all the civil and military forces in the world will be disciples of the emperor. Isn't it not a good thing!"
We should first recruit meritorious sons, and then recruit meritorious grassroots generals in the army, and train generals to ensure that the combat effectiveness of the Ming Dynasty's army lasts for a long time, and that the army does not become corrupt or lax.
There is no need to worry about the military people becoming a group like the civil servants. The military people are more important to family background, and they are more likely to look down on each other than the civil servants.
There is no need to worry about military personnel causing great harm to the country. The middle and lower levels are all disciples of the emperor. It is more difficult for the commander to cover the sky with one hand in the army. Moreover, it can also prevent the soldiers from becoming generals, making it easier for the central government to strengthen management and mobilize and use them.
Furthermore, military men value meritorious service. Once the Ming Dynasty has a large number of outstanding generals, their desire for military glory will make them take the initiative to help the Ming Dynasty and devour all known lands.
This was not Zhu Yunxi's impromptu idea, but a long-term plan in his mind. All the powerful dynasties in China were born out of worries and died in happiness. After the country is peaceful and the people are safe, they will gradually decline.
Instead of letting all kinds of domestic conflicts bring down the dynasty, it is better to have experienced soldiers and divert the conflicts militarily. Fight them out, and Ming Dynasty will be ready to fight them out at any time, so that you can continue to expand your living space and prevent the world from falling into that kind of collapse.
.
Just like the Western world in the Age of Discovery, there are an endless stream of aristocratic children in the military of Western countries, and it is common practice to join the army and make contributions. The West also has a system of eldest son inheritance, and it is far more thorough than that in China. In China, the eldest son inherits the family business and gives more or less to other brothers.
Or when the older generation is still alive, they will preside over the distribution of property and live separately.
In the West, there is nothing. Children of nobles without titles want to enjoy the privileges of superiority. They can only work in the army to the death to earn a future for themselves. Only by laying down pieces of land for the empire can they be recognized by the empire.
"It's a good idea!" The old man looked at Zhu Yunxi and asked sternly, "If it turns out that there are a few of those bastard boys who can make a difference, where will they be placed in the army in the future? Where should they lead the troops?"
Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "Their father and brother are both in the capital, and their families are rich and noble, so it is naturally not suitable to be in the capital. My grandson thinks that after these people complete their studies, they can be placed on the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty. The border wars are the most training!"
For the noble children who cannot inherit the title, entering martial arts is a way out, especially for those bastards who have nothing to gain at home.
However, the family power of these noble children must be guarded against. In a few years, the old school of nobles will gradually weaken, and the new generation of the army will grow up. Coupled with the officers with martial arts background, the Ming Dynasty will
The military is changing generations and embarking on a virtuous cycle.
Therefore, the best way to employ people is to send them far away to the border.
"You boy, you have so many evil ideas!" The old man smiled slightly, "All the warriors in the world are disciples of the emperor, ha! From now on, I am afraid that the scholars will have a taste of it!"
"This means that when you, the Holy Emperor, are on the throne, the civil servants dare not make noise. Otherwise, if any emperor were to give the world's warriors a way to advance, they would be scolded to death by the civil servants!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile.
"Haha, Holy Emperor? Don't you dare?" The old man's face suddenly turned ugly, "While we, the Holy Emperor, are in power, they still dare to go to the brothels and take bribes and pervert the law!"
Does Zhu Yunxi know when visiting a kiln?
Corruption, who is it?
"The Zhao Mian you promoted has been greedy for a lot of money in private!" The old man said with a ferocious look on his face and gritted his teeth.
