"Being rich to cultivate conscience is not only a trial for governing officials, but also for governing the people. Why are thieves rampant in Yan's land, but compared with it, Wu's land does not pick up relics? What is this? In the end, it is a poor word. Yan's land is poor, and Wu's land is rich." , the conduct of the people of Yan and Wu will be completely different."
Lao Zhu just kept silent. Based on Zhu Biao's understanding of his father, I am afraid that Lao Zhu really listened to these words.
After a long time, seeing Xiao Zhu looking at him helplessly, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and scolded,
"You bastard, are you still waiting for us to admit your mistake?! Keep watching!"
Xiao Zhu chuckled, and continued to look at it, but looking down, Xiao Zhu's two eyebrows were instantly intertwined,
After reading it several times again, the normally clever little Zhu's brows did not relax at all, but tightened more and more.
"Father, I don't understand the third question."
Lao Zhu sighed, "Your father didn't understand..."
Xiao Zhu shook the test paper. He knew all the words in the third question, but after stringing them together, he didn't know them anymore. Xiao Zhu scratched his head,
"This dialectic seems very profound, and I'm afraid it's not inferior to Confucianism and Taoism, but my child's knowledge is too shallow, and I can't even understand one or two of them."
Lao Zhu nodded in agreement, "It seems that there are still many things hidden in this son's belly. This dialectic alone is enough to subvert the world's morality."
"Yes, but I also want to get a glimpse of the way, and it seems that I still need to be instructed by my husband in person."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "Go on and look down."
Xiao Zhu read along Zhu Yuanzhang's fingers, and the fourth question is often the most important question in the whole paper, and it is also where the policy of the imperial examination lies.
Policy theory is the best way to show the essence of a person's thoughts.
But as soon as he saw the topic, Xiao Zhu was so shocked that his pupils trembled, and couldn't help exclaiming,
"North and South Imperial Examination Policy Theory?! This! Sir, you can continue to write this dialectic, why dare to touch this?!"
Xiao Zhu subconsciously looked at Old Zhu, seeing that there was no sign of embarrassment on Old Zhu's face, and secretly sweated for Liu Xiu.
You know, the northern and southern imperial examinations are an absolute taboo in Ming Dynasty!
It is a topic that cannot be touched!
"You look down."
Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly.
Xiao Zhu nodded absent-mindedly, and was already preparing a draft for Liu Xiu to intercede in her stomach. After all, Xiao Zhu still had something to ask Liu Xiu to do!
But looking down, Xiao Zhu seemed to be completely sucked in, and only this theory was left in his eyes. The whole article read smoothly, and he read it to the end unconsciously.
Zhu Biao smacked his lips, as if there was something delicious in it, which made him want nothing more.
"How is it?"
Xiao Zhu excitedly said, "Father! This is absolutely feasible! As long as we do this! The problem of the northern and southern imperial examinations will definitely not develop into the worst situation!"
Zhu Biao couldn't sit still anymore, got up and walked around the house a few times, his ecstasy still undiminished,
"Okay! Really good! I guess Mr. can come up with this method! Dad! Let's draw up an edict tomorrow morning!"
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Xiao Zhu, and said in a serious voice, "Why are you so anxious? We have to wait until the spring of next year before the palace examination. Besides, such a big matter should be discussed at the court meeting. If we use it directly like this, we won't be afraid of trouble?"
Xiao Zhu immediately muttered like a frost-beaten eggplant, "Understood, Dad."
"Hmph! We're not saying no! This Liu Xiu's method is far better than what we thought!"
Xiao Zhu cursed,
If you think of a way, you must raise your hand and kill!
Old Zhu looked at Xiao Zhu, and said persuasively, "We are in a high position, every word and every decision will affect the people of the world, so we must be cautious before making every decision, if one is not careful, countless people will suffer! "
Hearing this, Xiao Zhu looked at the old man, thinking that he was always concerned with the people of the world, never forgetting where he came from, sobbing for a while,
"Got it, Dad."
"Well, you're grown up too, so we won't say much about some things," old Zhu paused, and continued, "Is your copying of Guo's mansion going well?"
Xiao Zhu subconsciously trembled in his heart, as expected, he couldn't hide anything from this man. He went to Liu's mansion and then went to Guo's mansion.
But Lao Zhu already knew about it.
Xiao Zhu analyzed his grandfather and Liu Meng, and Guo Heng reported to Zhu Yuanzhang about the treasury lending.
After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was silent for a long time and clenched his fists.
Xiao Zhu saw it, and it seemed that Zhu Yuanzhang really took Liu Xiu's strategy and theory into his heart, and he didn't even get angry when he heard about it.
Zhu Yuanzhang loosened his fists and sighed,
"We have killed so many corrupt officials, but the one who dares to play so big and spend such a good time is this Guo Heng. Alas, what that kid Liu Xiu said is really true. Anyone who can become a big corrupt official has some skills. Ordinary people really can’t play it.”
"Hehe, then let Daming's money go out to let go of lambs. If it weren't for the Liu family, we would never have thought of it!"
Xiao Zhu nodded approvingly. If Guo Heng's actions were taken by officials, it would really be impossible to find out.
"Boss, the next step is to press Guo Heng to death, find out the upstream and downstream, and recover all the money. The fourth and fifth also use the money. You, the eldest brother, have to help the brothers."
Zhu Biao smiled wryly, and took out the account book found in the stable tunnel from his sleeve, "Father, as long as the money can be recovered, I'm willing to give it all to the fourth and fifth, but I'm afraid I won't be able to get the money back... "
Lao Zhu frowned, took the account book, and after seeing the flowing water on it, he completely broke his defense.
"Has all the money been sent to Wajima?!"
Xiao Zhu nodded, and said helplessly, "Father, what should we do? 5000 million taels is not a small amount."
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally understood the deep meaning in Zhu Biao's words. Now the main enemy is Beiyuan. Although the victory in the battle of Yunnan has been won, Daming is also done and needs to recuperate...
If you want to directly mobilize troops against the Japanese pirates, you will definitely not be able to gather enough troops for a while, but if this matter is not resolved this year, the 5000 million taels will have to be spent by the Japanese.
At that time, even if you fight over, there will be no hairs.
"You have to use a trick."
The candlelight illuminated Lao Zhu's face flickeringly, and Zhu Biao continued with a tacit understanding,
"This person also needs to be proficient in commercial arithmetic."
Old Zhu nodded and continued, "Liu Meng lacks flexibility and has nothing but good arithmetic. He is absolutely unable to deal with emergencies."
Zhu Biao said, "Grandpa Liu's family meets the requirements, but it's a pity that he is getting old."
After a pause, Zhu Biao continued, "However, there is one person who is countless times better than these two."
Lao Zhu held his forehead, repeatedly calculating the gains and losses in his mind, and finally waved his hands helplessly and said,
"Anyway, he's a scourge wherever he goes, so let him go to Wa Island to scourge the scourge."
Chapter 163 Glass
Let Liu Xiu go to Wa Island.
After hearing Lao Zhu's arrangement, Xiao Zhu chuckled inwardly, this is what he thought too.
It can not only solve the problem of the national inventory of silver flowing into Wajima, but also separate Liu Xiu and the fourth child, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.
Zhu Biao felt uncomfortable when he thought that the mastermind who was supposed to belong to him was being used more and more easily by the fourth child.
Old Zhu looked at Zhu Biao with a smile, as if he had seen through Zhu Biao's thoughts completely.
"Haha, I'm a loner, you're right if you have such thoughts. Although you are of flesh and blood, you must not give up when it comes to power."
Xiao Zhu looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Father, I feel that my husband needs someone who is smart and capable of fighting."
"What?" Old Zhu raised his eyebrows, "Wen Zhong can't do it?"
Xiao Zhu shook his head, "Brother Li is too upright, not suitable for this job."
"Hehehe, it just so happens that Sapphire is back, that kid is also a big disaster, let him go."
"Sapphire? Dad, it's not very good."
Lan Yu had just returned from Yunnan, plus Fu Youde was held to death in Yunnan, and it was time for him to return to Beijing for great merit.
General Lan definitely has emotions in his heart!
"What's wrong, didn't he listen to you? Just tell him, and he will go away in a hurry."
Xiao Zhu was taken aback. If other emperors said this, it would definitely not be a good thing.
As a general, he listens to the crown prince the most, followed by the emperor, which makes ordinary emperors so worried that they can't sleep.
However, Zhu Biao, who was too happy for the old Zhu, hurriedly took over the throne, so this remark was mostly meant as a joke.
Seeing that Zhu Biao was puzzled, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand boredly, "Go to Lan Yu now, and let him go to Yandi with the imperial edict."
"Understood, Dad. Then Guo Heng..."
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes turned cold, "You went to the trial yourself."
"Row."
.........
Yandi
Two days have passed since the imperial examination,
The strange thing is, it stands to reason that the eldest son of the prefect Qiu has been wronged so much, so he can't wait until now to find a place.
But these two days have been too quiet.
"Erlang, someone is looking for you."
"Third Uncle, let him in directly."
"Got it!"
The tall ghost hand walked into Liu's mansion, with black hair casually tied on his shoulders, seeing Liu Xiu eating lychees with his legs crossed, the ghost hand looked at Liu Xiu with resentment on his face,
"What did you call me here for?"
Liu Xiu got up and said with a sneer, "Isn't this something to ask Brother Ghost Hand?"
"Cut, there must be nothing good," Guishou casually took the lychee that Liu Xiu grabbed, and threw it into his mouth, secretly thinking that Liu Xiu's life is really extravagant, "Since I met you, I've done all the work for you." You, who make pots and guns, don’t have a single day of peace. The descendants of my great patriarch will soon become your exclusive craftsman.”
"Hey, Brother Ghost Hand, you can't say that, so you didn't feel any fun from it?"
The ghost hand thought for a while, "Okay, that's true. Let's talk about it, Xiao Liu, what are you doing this time?"
