In the evening, Yunxi looked at the four words written by Zhu Di and thought to himself: 'As expected of my fourth uncle, I also came up with a question in this area, but after much thought, I just couldn't think of how to sum it up in four words.
Most of the imperial examinations were based on these four words.'
'As for the rest, Yun Wen was really happy to ask a few questions on the meaning of the classics. If there are no questions, let's use them as exam questions.'
"Uncle Thirteen came up with this strategy to control the Mongols. Although I already have a clue about how to deal with the Mongolian headquarters, I will understand after listening to it. It's okay to ask people to write down their own opinions during the examination. However, these four words need to be
Change one word.'
…
Yunxi thought for a while, then picked up his chopsticks and continued to eat. He had dinner with him and hugged Qin and said with a smile: "Oh, Your Majesty, you are still dealing with government affairs at this time."
Baoqin also knew about a queen at the Shangyuan Lantern Festival a few days ago. Among the three concubines, she was the only one who was not taken out of the palace by Yunxi. It was impossible to say that she was not dissatisfied with this.
But what can she do? Unlike Xiyao, who is the queen herself and her son the prince, and unlike Miaojin, who has a reliable natal family, her only hope is her biological son, but she still has to hope until her biological son grows up.
Yunxi.
So Baoqin still can only try his best to please Yunxi.
Yunxi also smiled and agreed: "This is a letter sent by several imperial uncles, so I took a look at it."
Yunxi later naturally noticed that among the three noble concubines, Baoqin was the only one who did not accompany him out of the palace this time. He was slightly embarrassed when facing Baoqin, but if he did it again, he would not take Baoqin with him.
Qin leaves the palace.
The lantern festival lasted only five days, and the first day of the lantern festival started at night. If he wanted to take Bao Qin with him, he could only go there on the afternoon of the 16th. If he left the palace for four consecutive days, his life might be in danger.
He won't put his life in danger.
After dinner was finished a while later, Baoqin first deliberately responded to Yunxi's conversation, and finally said: "Your Majesty, Yao'er is now five years old. Is it time to formally study?"
"Starting school officially at the age of five? It's a little too early. Let's wait until we are seven." Yunxi said.
Wen Yao was born in November of the 29th year of Hongwu. He is now only a little over three years old, and he officially started studying? Yunxi said that he couldn't accept it. Even if he was seven years old, Yunxi thought it was too early, but at this age, the family did not count.
People who are too poor will let their children study at the age of seven at the latest. It really cannot be postponed any longer.
"Your Majesty, but..." Baoqin originally wanted to say that both King Qin and King Jin started formal studies at the age of five, but saw Yunxi's face and did not continue.
But Yunxi understood the meaning of holding Qin, and said: "We are not an ordinary people's family, and we don't need our children to study from an early age. Wenyao is my first son, and I will not relax about him."
Only then did Bao Qin relax.
The next morning, Yunxi went to court, and Jianyi had already taken action.
Jian Yi's ability to act is still very strong. He started impeaching him as soon as he came to court, and the first target he personally selected was the right minister of the Ministry of Works. He was impeached for being "impetuous" and "spent all day in the public house after the holiday in the first month."
During this time, no official business was done,...'
Yunxi also showed his own attitude. After the Minister of Works could not refute Jian Yi's words, he reprimanded him on the spot, scaring him so much that he knelt down to plead guilty.
Yunxi would not punish him in any substantial way. Although he really wanted to fire him as Minister of Works, it was a bit shocking to directly fire the deputy minister because he was not attentive at work, so he just criticized him.
But even a little criticism is enough. The emperor criticized a minister in public. This minister has had no future in recent years. If he is not young anymore, he had better ask for his body immediately.
Moreover, as the censor of Zuodu, although Jian Yi could not control all the censors, most of the censors still did not dare to confront the boss of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
At this time, the situation in Beijing was not very clear, and casual impeachment would not be a good idea. Accepting the emperor's mission to increase the sense of presence was still very beneficial to the censors.
Therefore, after Yunxi came to the court, he saw countless memorials impeaching officials from various government offices in the capital for being lazy and sabotaging their work. Even the Taipu Temple, which was not in the capital but in a county under Yingtian Prefecture, was impeached.
Yunxi randomly picked out a few unlucky ones and wrote in the memorial: 'The Ministry of Personnel will demote officials to Yunnan, Guangxi and Shaanxi at its discretion.'
As for the others, they escaped unscathed.
Whenever this happens, it is when Yunxi feels most refreshed and when he can best demonstrate his power.
Someone once said, what is power? For example, if you are the president of a court, and a person intentionally kills someone and pleads guilty, and you sentence him to death in accordance with the law, this is not called power, it is just acting in accordance with the rules.
A person has committed the crime of intentional injury. The plaintiff has cited evidence, but the evidence is not very conclusive. He can be found guilty or not guilty. At this time, you think the defendant looks unpleasant and you convict him. This is called power.
This is the case now. Yunxi can deal with these people or not; even if he deals with them, he can freely decide who to deal with. This feeling is the most satisfying. Compared with a while ago, because people from the five provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang opposed him, then he
It feels good to deal with or even execute them.
However, as a person who has escaped from low-level tastes, Yunxi will not be immersed in such low-level pleasure. He handed over the memorial to impeach those unlucky guys to a Zhongshushe person and sent it to the General Affairs Department, and then he
Start dealing with political matters.
As for the rest of the impeachment memorials, they were left unpublished. Their fate was probably to be torn into pieces of paper by illiterate eunuchs a few days later and transported out of the palace together with other kinds of palace garbage.
There are more memorials today than yesterday, but not too many. Qi Tai and others quickly finished reviewing the memorials assigned to them, and Yunxi also quickly completed the review.
However, just when Yunxi wanted to do other things, the official from Zhongshushe who went to the General Affairs Department to deliver memorials came back with another pile of memorials in his arms and said to Yunxi: "Your Majesty, I just went to the General Affairs Department, and the General Affairs Envoy gave me another
I wish you these memorials."
Yunxi immediately understood why. Jian Yi's impeachment in the morning surprised many people. It's not that they were afraid, but there was always some fear.
Therefore, after they went to court, they immediately urged the officials in their departments to quickly handle all the matters that should be dealt with, and stop procrastinating. If they delay any longer, they will lose their official positions.
The officials then dealt with political affairs with great vigor and sent the memorial to the General Affairs Department.
Yunxi chuckled lightly and said nothing. He just called the four auxiliary officers to distribute the memorial.
However, when it was Qi Tai's turn, Yunxi did not immediately hand him the memorial assigned to him, but said: "Qi Qing, next month, I want you to return to the Ministry of Household Affairs as Minister."
