I want to be a grandson

Chapter 167 Reason 1
Under the silence of Ren Hengtai, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, Zhu Yunqi discussed with Chen Xin to see how to get His Majesty the emperor's consent and make the imperial examination go smoothly.

To conduct the imperial examination, the most important thing is to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang.

In order to be prepared, Zhu Yunqi must make sure that the plan is properly arranged, so that His Majesty can agree.

In the imperial examination, the examiner is very important!

If a court official or a world-renowned Confucian served as the examiner, it would also attract more scholars.

After all, they represent the authority and the attention of the imperial court!
In order to increase his bargaining chips, Zhu Yunqi sent Chen Xin to visit the great Confucian Liu Sanwu of the Imperial Academy.

Originally, when Liu Sanwu heard that the imperial examination was going to be held this autumn, he shook his head again and again, and he didn't want to be the chief examiner at all.

Besides, His Majesty has not agreed to this matter, and it is not in line with the imperial court's system, so how dare he advocate the opening of the department.

Although the scholars must be happy, His Majesty is not necessarily happy. If His Majesty is not happy, he will be killed!

But Chen Xin said something cunningly, which made Liu Sanwu's attitude change drastically.

"After making meritorious deeds, please ask His Majesty for mercy!"

Because Liu Sanwu's daughter and his husband Zhao Mian, Minister of the Household Department, had just been beheaded by Zhu Yuanzhang.

The daughter can't be rescued, but my grandson has also been enslaved, so he still has to be a slave and a handmaid!

In the past few days, Liu Sanwu was so worried that he couldn't sleep or eat. He also wrote to ask Zhu Yuanzhang for mercy, but they were all rejected.

And Chen Xin's words showed two meanings. One was that Liu Sanwu had made meritorious service in this imperial examination. If he begged Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang might be happy to allow Liu Sanwu's grandson to get out of slavery.

Even if it is worth the effort, he can save his grandson.

So what Liu Sanwu urgently needs now is to make meritorious service!
The second meaning is to imply that Liu Sanwu, if he is willing to help the Second Highness, the Second Highness will definitely intercede for him...

So Liu Sanwu gritted his teeth after hearing this, and immediately agreed to be the examiner.

……

"I heard that you set up a commercial department in the Ministry of Households?"

"Yes."

"Specializing in business and official stores?"

"Yes."

"You are thirsty for talents! All subjects in the world can recommend themselves, regardless of their background, poverty or lowliness, and those who are outstanding can be given official titles. This reward is really generous. If we don't want to be the emperor, we will think of a certain errand for you Woolen cloth!"

"Do you think if we go, can we get into your eyes? Can we reward the two of you? If you are merciful, can you reward us as a petty official?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sent someone to call Zhu Yunxi to the Jinshen Hall, and as soon as he came up, he smashed his head and covered his face with cynicism and cynicism.

The Commercial Department is really famous in Yingtian Mansion now!

I'm afraid that within a few days, the whole world will know the name of the Department of Commerce and Trade!
This is in front of all the common people, and His Majesty Donggong personally rewards the lowly grassroots to become a sixth-rank official lord!
How could it not cause vibrations!

Zhu Yunxi hurriedly made amends and said: "The grandson has nothing to do with it, please punish the emperor."

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him, "You still know what you did wrong! We thought you were complacent and proud! You set up a business department without our permission, and recruited talents. Who gave you such great power."

Zhu Yunxie said solemnly: "Grandpa Huang, grandson Zhu manages the household department. Naturally, it is necessary to select talents according to the actual situation. This is the matter of the household department."

Zhu Yuanzhang asked, "Aren't you afraid of critics from scholars?"

Zhu Yunxi said frankly and fearlessly: "If he is proficient in planning, familiar with trade, and knows how to make porcelain and wine, I can also appoint him."

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him: "We tell you to abolish, do you dare not listen?!"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang must be testing himself.

If he really looked at scholars that way, he would not have selected officials from Juren.

Because there are too many Jinshi in terms of the number of Juren, more available officials can be selected from among them.

After all, knowing how to read does not mean that it is available.

So Zhu Yunxi twisted his neck, didn't look at him, and said to himself: "Grandpa Huang, since you let me take charge of the household department, then I have the final say on the household department! Since there is no major fault, you can't interfere!"

"Yeah!……"

Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a hard look, pointed at the stack of memorials on the desk,
Said: "Come and see! This is the impeachment of officials, and we are required to abolish the memorial of the Department of Commerce and Trade! You really have the guts!"

"Do you know how many people will oppose it? At that time, others will accuse you of fighting for profit with the people, and accuse you of doing business with great fanfare. Hurry up and dismantle that business department!"

Originally Zhu Yunxi was still respectful and obedient, but now he straightened his back!
He retorted: "Grandfather, the Department of Commerce and Trade is under the Ministry of Household Affairs, and it was established to increase Daming's income. Why not?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Do you know that even civil and military officials have many people who oppose it! These memorials are opposition! How much income can your business department increase, we have not investigated the crime you set up without authorization!"

Zhu Yunxi did not make any concessions: "The Department of Commerce and Trade is indeed of great significance and usefulness to Ming Dynasty, and it cannot be abolished absolutely! Don't say that some officials who are out of self-interest object, even if all civil and military officials are against it, my grandson will never abolish it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glared and said: "At that time, more officials will object and put the impeachment memorial here. What do you think we should do!"

Zhu Yunxi said indifferently: "The emperor just threw it away! The emperor doesn't have to listen to what some ignorant and stupid moths say for their own self-interest!"

"Okay!"

"The officials' memorials can be thrown away, you are tougher than us!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile back.

Zhu Yunxi's tone eased a bit, "Grandpa, think about it, the Ministry of Household Affairs is different from others, and it needs all kinds of talents to increase the income of the imperial court."

"The Department of Commerce and Trade is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. Why do they object? Which of these officials does not have a shop? Which one does not do business?"

"Why can't we do what they do? They are afraid that we will make the business too big and affect their money and income! This is completely selfish!
Abandoning the public for private reasons, they don't even have the minimum responsibility and responsibility of Ming officials! "

"This kind of person is not worthy of being an official at all!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hands impatiently and said: "Don't talk about those useless things! Scholars and officials are not for the sake of high officials, wealth, wealth, wealth, clothing and food. How many people are there who are dedicated to the public as you said?"

He also taught him: "Even if they have selfish intentions as officials, they still have to use it..."

You give them such a low salary for the sake of high officials?
Zhu Yunxi would be extremely stupid if he couldn't hear Zhu Yuanzhang's temptation!

That's why Zhu Yunxi said in a calm manner: "Grandfather, on the territory of the Ming Dynasty, there are countless people who want to benefit the people, but they haven't been discovered...

"These people may write essays, write poems, and be arty, not as superb as Jinshi champions, but when it comes to governing in a down-to-earth manner and working diligently for the benefit of the people, they are much better than some literati!

If they can enter the court as officials, it will definitely bring a new look to the court! "

Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and said excitedly, "Grandfather, think about it, if after ten years of selection and promotion, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are all sincere officials who are dedicated to the people, what a scene it will be!"
