Follow Zhu Yuanzhang to conquer the country

Chapter 283 Zhu Yuanzhang decided to implement the new imperial examination system
During this period, Zhu Yuanzhang had been carefully reading the "Records of the Ming Dynasty" given to him by Zhang Cheng, and the more he read, the less able he was to calm down. The success of the Northern Expedition did not make him forget about it, but he was still staying rational because of this. Thinking.

"Mr. Zhang, in the Ming Dynasty of that world, we should have been caught in a huge conspiracy!"

"Moreover, we should have been involved in such a conspiracy from the very beginning, from our break with Wenzheng, to our Biao'er's sudden illness, to our death."

Zhu Yuanzhang also shared with Zhang Cheng his insights after reading "Records of the Ming Dynasty" with a solemn look on his face after Zhang Cheng came to him.

Zhang Cheng did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would be so sure that he had been trapped in a huge conspiracy.

However, Zhang Cheng thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was also a dignified Hongwu Emperor in history, and that he was best at power struggle. Perhaps in the original history, he was "obsessed by those in power and bystanders", so he did not have a very objective and clear understanding of his early Ming years. , but now he begins to observe it from a third-party perspective and uses his entire family history and imperial history in original history, and he can really see the difference.

Therefore, Zhang Cheng asked Zhu Yuanzhang seriously: "Why do you think so?"

"Because after careful observation, we found that before they appeared, Wen Zheng was deeply righteous, simple and humble, but after they appeared, he first contracted many bad habits!"

"Then, Wen Zheng was discovered and reported by them one by one. It seems that they are honest and love the people and not afraid of the powerful. We have to believe that they are moral gentlemen. Most of our brothers are prone to bad habits because they are uneducated. bandits!"

"If just looking at the process of Wen Zheng and me from loving each other as father and son to becoming incompatible is not enough to convince us that this is a conspiracy, then our Biao'er passed away, and the unscrupulous descendant of our emperor Zhu Yunwen instigated them as soon as he ascended the throne. If you do something unkind, let us completely believe that their kindness and aloofness are indeed fake!”

"Do you think we would be willing to admit that we were stupid in front of you if it wasn't based on facts?!"

"Mr. Zhang, do you think we are trying to shirk responsibility for ourselves?"

After Zhu Yuanzhang said this, he asked Zhang Cheng.

"They don't really like a wise prince like Biao'er who is kind and independent. What they like is actually a prince like Yunwen who is stupid, bad and likes to drag them along to play the benevolence and righteousness card!"

"Who can set a trap for you, Zhu Yuanzhang, from the very beginning, knowing that you, Zhu Yuanzhang, will become the emperor in the future?"

"Besides, if we admit it like this, it means admitting that we are also stupid and admitting that we were fooled by them!"

But before Zhang Cheng could answer, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately stood up and said with excitement: "We are not! We are not that idiot Zhu Youjian, who only knows how to blame others!"

"Not alone?"

"Or maybe you think we think so because we don't want to accept that Biao'er passed away unexpectedly?"

Zhang Cheng smiled.

"This person can't be like me, predicting the future, right?"

Zhang Cheng asked.

Zhang Cheng then asked about Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said: "To be precise, this chief messenger is not alone!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhang Cheng smiling, he took the initiative to ask.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhang Cheng with a deep look and replied.

Zhang Chengze then asked Zhu Yuanzhang seriously: "I guess you guessed it right. You have been involved in a huge conspiracy from the beginning. Who do you think is the mastermind of this conspiracy?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned: "It's impossible for you not to understand!"

"If you, Mr. Zhang, didn't understand, you wouldn't have given us those books."

Zhu Yuanzhang then said something else. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "The main messengers of this big conspiracy are a group."

"This group, in the books you gave us, talks about class."

"Anyway, it is because of the existence of this group that most people in this group have unintentionally carried out such a conspiracy against us, other heroes, and even ourselves and those closest to us!"

Zhang Cheng nodded: "It's interesting."

"Isn't this interesting? This is an objective fact!"

"This is a conspiracy that the class has been doing!"

"They can't help but launch such a conspiracy, and many people can't help but fall into this conspiracy."

Zhu Yuanzhang categorically attacked Zhang Cheng.

Zhang Cheng said: "Then go on, why did they couldn't help but launch such a conspiracy?"

"Because they not only want to satisfy their own noble needs, but also want to satisfy their own needs of taking advantage of the people's products cheaply."

"That makes them very naughty!"

"They will also talk about benevolence, justice and morality in front of people who can decide their life or death, and behave like animals in front of people who can't decide their life or death."

After Zhu Yuanzhang said this, he put his hands on his hips: "We should be naive after becoming emperor in that world. We may naively think that they may not be grateful to us, but under the influence of sage Neo-Confucianism, they should treat us like this." The kind and wise Lord is grateful.”

"But now after reading this record, we have to admit that they have never been grateful to anyone from the beginning, including Confucius and Mencius, whom they talk about every day!"

"Then what are you going to do in this world?"

Zhang Cheng asked about Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled coldly: "Since they can't even be grateful to Biao'er, then we can only give up on them completely!"

"We don't want to make our Biao'er become like Zhu Yunwen in order to satisfy their ideas, and then let our Zhu family be almost defeated in a few generations, and still fight among themselves."

"We have decided that the imperial examinations of the new dynasty will not only respect Confucianism. We will follow your example, Mr. Zhang, in the Jiqing Official Selection Examination. All students will have to take the three main subjects of Chinese, arithmetic, and history, and they will be divided into one test at the same time. There are majors in geography, mining, medicine, agriculture, water conservancy, construction and other majors. In short, the imperial examination is certainly to allow people in the world to achieve wealth and wealth through studying and to stabilize the people of the world, but this system must not be used for this reason. In order to seek eternal stability, come and cooperate They are carrying out a conspiracy to dumb down the Chinese people!”

"Because with this conspiracy of theirs, the royal family and the people cannot be stable at all!"

"Only they are the most stable! If the country dies, they will all be safe. Even if the nation dies, they will mostly be able to stay stable."

After Zhu Yuanzhang said this, Zhang Cheng immediately praised him:
"well said!"

then.

Zhang Cheng walked towards Zhu Yuanzhang with a smile and said: "Sir, you are really free from the shackles of landlordism now. You are not deceived by such thoughts because you seek eternal stability."

"Fortunately, we have you, Mr. Zhang, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get out even if we had the talents of Emperor Qin and Han Dynasty."

Zhu Yuanzhang said to Zhang Cheng with a grateful look on his face: "It's just a pity!"

"What's a pity?"
