Jin Chun was still shocked that Yunxi had made large-scale changes to the martial arts hall system he created, but Jingqing, who had been following Yunxi for several years, had long since grown accustomed to it and began to think about it seriously.?
After a while, Jing Qing said: "Your Highness, how are the future arrangements for the graduates? In the past, it was recommended by the local government. In recent years, the local government, the capital's Yamen, and the health clinic have also formed a practice of giving priority to the students of the Martial Arts Hall.
"
"But in the future, all the disciples who hold hereditary positions above the command level can enter the martial arts hall, so various places will inevitably favor these disciples when promoting them."
"There are more than 400 military schools in the Ming Dynasty, and there are many hereditary children. Even if half of them are outstanding, there are still a lot of them. Students who have difficulty getting into a higher-level military academy may not have much change in their future after attending the military academy. Over time,
, they will think that going to school may not be useful.”
"If we want to change this situation, it cannot be changed in three to five years. There are many factions in the army, and Your Majesty is not Yiwen. He is still young and it is difficult to change in a hurry."
After listening to Jing Qing's words, Yunxi felt that it made sense. Although the Ming Dynasty had only been officially founded for thirty-one years, military promotions also had their own rules. Zhu Yuanzhang later agreed to set up a martial arts hall, but it was only used as an officer training class.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very confident in the system he established and would not change it easily.
Now Yunxi does not have the prestige of Zhu Yuanzhang. He cannot just change anything with a single order, unless it is to increase the salary of officials. Therefore, he can only change slowly. Therefore, his military academy restructuring strategy is not very good.
Yunxi asked: "Jingqing, what do you think?"
Jing Qing said: "Your Majesty, I think that the children of generals who are commanding Qianshi and above can be admitted to the Jiangwu Hall to study. However, this should not be confused with the previous recommendation of 300 people from various places to enroll, that is, these children who are commanding Qianshi and above are generals.
Admission only replaces the previous job assessment, and it is not the same as those students from the Martial Arts Hall who were truly recommended."
"In order to clearly distinguish them, it is better to change their enrollment year to one year. If they pass the exam, they can go back to work, if they fail, they can continue to study."
"The original recommendation of 300 people for admission remains unchanged, and the children of generals and generals above the command level can continue to receive recommendations. Similarly, if recommended for admission, they can graduate, and they can also serve in the future."
"Besides, regarding His Majesty's suggestion of setting up a higher-level military academy, I think it would be better to be a little more relaxed."
Well, Yunxi's opinion has been greatly revised, but after thinking about it, Yunxi felt that what Jingqing said made sense. Fortunately, this was a private consultation, so Yunxi could change his mind without caring.
, no one else knows anyway.
But Yunxi said: "I want to establish a higher-level military academy in order to select more powerful generals and talents to serve as the team; after all, there are currently 300 people in the martial arts hall, and I can't take care of it."
Jingqing was thinking, but at this time Jin Chun, who had been a spectator just now, said: "Your Majesty, there are people from Zhongshushe and Hanlin Academy around you, all of whom are civil servants. Why don't Your Majesty use the two best students of Jiangwu Hall to
Thirty people, like the people from Zhongshushe, serve as cabinet attendants?"
After listening to Jin Chun's suggestion, Yunxi's eyes immediately lit up and he said, "What you said is absolutely true!"
He had a blind spot in his thinking because of the different levels of schooling system in later generations. After primary school there is middle school, after middle school there is university, after university there is master's degree, and after master's degree there is doctorate.
So Yunxi subconsciously continued to go to school, forgetting that the best way at this time was to get someone to work with as an attendant or adviser.
The three of them made some more improvements and got the reform properly. Then Yunxi ordered: "Don't make it public until I go back and formally issue the order."
Jing Qing and Jin Chun replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Yunxi immediately went home. Halfway through, Yunxi still thought: "I still have some limitations in my thinking. People in this era actually have better solutions to many things. My ideas that are close to modern thinking may not be suitable for today."
Yes, I need to think more about it in the future.”
Yunxi reflected on himself in this way.
Seeing that it was still early, Yunxi decided to get off the car and walk back. Of course, the security would not relax.
After this stroll, we arrived near the county government office of Shangyuan County.
Today is November 16th, which is one of the monthly notice days. It is not dark yet, so many people come to the county government to complain.
Yunxi suddenly decided to see how the magistrate, whose name he had forgotten, tried his case, so he squeezed into the crowd to watch.
Yunxi felt that he was reading reports from people below him every day in the palace, and he no longer knew much about the actual situation among the people, so he decided to see how the lowest-level officials in the Ming Dynasty were doing.
Today has arrived, and there are not many people watching. The guards escorted Yunxi to the outside of the county government office, and then he saw a citizen being beaten.
Yunxi didn't pay much attention to this matter at first. It was too common for county magistrates to slap people. Basically, the government arrested people for crimes. Regardless of whether the arrested person did it or not, the arrested person would not admit it.
At this time, it was difficult to collect physical evidence. There were not so many high-tech means, and there were no cameras. We could only rely on human deduction, and then oral confessions.
At some point, the only way to obtain a confession is through punishment, so the use of torture is very common.
Yunxi knew that torture to extract confessions might lead to an unjust case, but he had no choice but to let it go.
Yunxi casually asked the people watching the torture: "Old man, why was this man beaten? Was he caught stealing? Or was he just making trouble for nothing? It couldn't be that he stole someone's wife, right? There was no one else around."
The man called the old man said: "Hey, it's not what I said. This man wants to sue the current head of the Ministry of Rites, named Cao or something."
"According to the law set by Grandfather Taizu, if you sue an official of the dynasty, you must first get thirty slaps. If you are still determined to sue, the government will accept it!"
Yunxi was immediately surprised and said: "How can this be included in the laws set by Taizu? The Ming Law only stipulates that if the people falsely accuse officials, in addition to the punishment for false accusations among the people, an additional thirty
board."
"How could the Great Patriarch, who was diligent in government and loved the people, set such a stipulation in the Ming Dynasty Code?"
In fact, if you think about it, you will know that Zhu Yuanzhang was so worried about his officials, how could he not allow the people to sue the officials?
The old man was stunned for a moment and said: "Is this what it says in the Ming Dynasty Code? But just now the county magistrate said that people who complain to officials should get thirty slaps first."
Yunxi looked up at this official, and saw that he was also quite handsome and talented. Listening to what he said, it seemed reasonable on the surface, but why was he such a bastard!
At that time, Yunxi had the urge to reveal his identity immediately and take down the county magistrate. But after all, Yunxi was a person with several years of experience. He knew that acting like what was shown in later TV series was very exciting and would win people.
The people present welcomed it, but it was not a good idea.
However, Yunxi was also a young man of only twenty years old and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. It took a lot of effort to restrain his temper of wanting to act in court, turned around and returned to the carriage, and then ordered the guards to drive back to the palace.
Liu Yuquan, the current magistrate of Shangyuan County, finished hearing the case and smiled with satisfaction: "This citizen was finally frightened and stopped filing a lawsuit. It is not in vain for me to violate the law. If he continues to file a lawsuit, then I will not
It's easy to handle.'
'Be sure to inform Cao Zizhuang about this after get off work in the evening, tell him that someone sued him and asked me to block it, and let him thank me properly.'
Then Liu Yuquan raised his head, looked at the people watching outside, and thought to himself: 'Why did I feel like someone was looking at me with very resentful eyes just now? Am I wrong?'
Yunxi returned to Qianqing Palace, which was already empty at this time. The four auxiliary officers had all gone off duty as usual, and although Zhongshusheren was on duty at night, they were not at Qianqing Palace, but not far from Fengtian Palace.
.
Yunxi had no one to talk to, and after checking some information, he came to Kunning Palace full of anger.
Xiyao came out to greet Yunxi, and she could tell at a glance that Yunxi was a little angry. She welcomed Yunxi into the house, carefully asked for instructions, and then asked the imperial kitchen to prepare food. Then Xiyao asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, what are you doing today?"
What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my concubine?"
Yunxi was angry today not entirely because Liu Yuquan, the magistrate of Shangyuan County, distorted the law and arbitrarily judged the case, but because he dared to do this in the capital. It was also because Yunxi had already checked the files and Liu Yuquan had already become an official in the capital.
He had been the county magistrate for many years, yet no one reported him for arbitrarily judging cases, and he was allowed to act recklessly at the feet of the emperor.
Yunxi would not believe that this was the first time Liu Yuquan had arbitrarily judged a case, so he was very dissatisfied with the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Yingtian Mansion, feeling that they were not doing their job properly and were suspected of corruption and perversion of the law.
Even the emperor’s feet are like this. Is everything okay in that place?
Now Yunxi heard Xiyao ask about it and said: "It's not because you did something wrong, it's because of the foreign affairs."
Then Yunxi couldn't help but talk about this matter with Xiyao, and finally said: "What does the Metropolitan Procuratorate do? It only stares at the little things above the court all day long, and doesn't even pay attention to the perverts of the law close at hand.
Come!" Yunxi directly pointed the finger at the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Whoever leaves the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate idle all day will only pick on Yunxi!
Xiyao was also secretly surprised. She thought it was normal for officials in the capital to play around with the situation, but openly misreading the law was too much.
However, Xiyao still comforted him and said: "Your Majesty, although the magistrate of Shangyuan County is hateful, your Majesty is the emperor of the world, and it is not worth getting angry over this matter. Your Majesty will go to court tomorrow and punish this official and warn Bai Bai.
