Liu Bowen said: "In the third year of Hongwu, an imperial examination was held to select 120 talents for the imperial court. Today's Minister of Rites, Mr. Wu Bozong, was the number one scholar appointed by the emperor. In the remaining years, inspections from various places were carried out. A list of talents will be submitted, and then the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Zhongshu Sheng and the emperor will select talents from them."
As for why the imperial examination was discontinued after one year, he couldn't say here.
Mainly because Lao Zhu felt that if all new officials were selected by people like Liu Bowen and Song Lian. Then Liu Bowen and the others would definitely prefer scholars who were born in the common people.
Then gradually the power of the ministers in the DPRK will be equal to that of the Huaixi nobles.
Lao Zhu is difficult to control.
Zhu Bai naturally understood the reason and did not answer the question.
After all, Liu Bowen said these words at this time, maybe he wanted to use him to advise Lao Zhu on reopening the imperial examination.
He had no interest in getting involved in their power struggle, so he just kept talking on his own: "Ah. It is simple for the Guan Ya Bureau to select talents. The imperial court directly presides over the qualification assessment to select suitable people, and the General Guan Ya Bureau trains individuals. After three and a half months, a certificate will be issued for appointment. After that, the assessment will be conducted every three years, and the court will decide whether to continue to issue certificates based on the results and performance. The official dental bureau will submit profits and account books for review as required. The court will also send people to inspect regularly. . So it’s not impossible to set up three-level official bureaus in prefectures, prefectures and counties.”
Liu Bowen keenly captured the favorable information and immediately asked: "Who will be responsible for the inspection? Even if it is an official, if no one supervises it, he may wantonly disturb the price, buy too cheap, sell too high, and bully the market."
You old bastard, don’t you want me to dominate alone?
Zhu Bai was cursing in his heart, but his face remained calm: "Of course it is up to my father to decide."
Liu Bowen saluted Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty, I suggest that the censor should take up the post. Anyway, the censor has to go on inspection."
Think beautifully. Our son is in charge of the dental clinic, so we will let you sour people come to inspect, and find fault with our son every day if nothing happens? !
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Liu Bowen coldly: "What do you mean, someone can inspect our business?"
The court hall suddenly fell into deathly silence.
Who has the guts? !
Anyone who comes to patrol will die!
Zhu Bai laughed and split his head in his heart: Hahaha, a sure kill!
Lao Zhu is still awesome.
Liu Bowen replied calmly: "Your Majesty is wise, and it is impossible to be a censor alone. Therefore, I sincerely request your Majesty to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince take charge of the inspection work."
Grass. You old bastard! ! Isn’t this just making us, father and son, brothers fight against each other?
Zhu Bai tilted his head and thought for a while.
No, no, no, that's not right.
He wanted Zhu Biao to catch me personally and bend the law for personal gain. In this way, Zhu Biao's status in Lao Zhu's mind will be greatly improved, and he can also kill me.
Really good at playing dirty tricks.
Zhu Yuanzhang was silent.
Zhu Biao's suggestion of going on inspection really tempted him.
He climbed up from the bottom and has personally experienced the ugly faces and dark methods of those low-level officials.
Zhu Biao grew up under care. As the successor of the empire, he really should go out to see more and understand the people's sentiments, so that he would not be deceived and fooled in the future.
The time they went to Zhongdu to lecture on martial arts was besieged by hungry people. Although it was dangerous and cruel, it was not necessarily a bad thing for them.
In one fell swoop, they were able to see clearly the most terrifying and ugliest side of the world.
From now on, when they govern the world and govern vassal states, they will have the people in mind and put them first.
Xu Huizu wants to speak out and fulfill his promise to Zhu Bai.
Zhu Bai waved to him quietly.
Xu Hui Zuba had no choice but to speak out and immediately retreated.
Zhu Bai knew that he would not be able to speak at this time.
Otherwise it will appear too eager and guilty.
You can compete with anyone for profit, but you cannot compete with Zhu Biao.
If he wants to live happily and long, he must not touch this bottom line.
Li Shanchang cursed madly in his heart: Liu Bowen, you are so treacherous. Isn't Zhu Biao's inspection the same as your inspection?
Your hand is stretched too far.
He winked at Hu Weiyong.
Hu Weiyong came out and said: "I suggest that the Ministry of Revenue and the Censor work together to assist His Royal Highness."
As long as someone from the household department is involved, it is Li Shanchang and others who are involved.
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally knew the meaning of mutual restraint and said: "Okay, then let the prince lead the censor and the household department to inspect together."
Zhu Bai pursed his lips: Why are there more and more people? The more people there are, the more difficult things will be.

After the court ended, Lao Zhu Ni tilted his head at Zhu Bai: "If you have any opinions, just say them. Don't hold you back."
After all, it was agreed before that he would do it, and now there are so many people who want to point fingers, Zhu Bai will definitely not be happy.
Zhu Bai said: "No objection."
Anyway, he had already negotiated all the terms with Zhu Yuanzhang in front of Zhu Biao.
As long as he follows the conditions, no one can throw dirty water on him.
Bringing Zhu Biao along is equivalent to an insurance policy.
Lao Zhu nodded: "Okay, you go figure out how to do it and write us a memorial."
Zhu Bai frowned: "Can you dictate it?"
He had the most trouble writing traditional Chinese characters. He had to think about how to write them word by word.
My IQ dropped from over 200 to zero in an instant.
Lao Zhu glared: "Write, you must write, write well for us. Look at you, you are eight years old. You still can't write a few words, and you are wandering around all day long."

Xu Huizu asked someone to send a letter to Xu Da explaining the matter.
Naturally, Xu Da would not refuse, and wrote a letter to Xu Huizu: This time it is King Xiang who saved us again. You must abide by the court's decrees in the future, and never take advantage of petty advantages or save trouble.
Zhu Biao divided Xicheng District into four areas, and each area was renovated and built with bricks and tiles.
Xu Huizu's courtyard was converted into many small rooms to accommodate the people of the area that was first renovated.
Xicheng District made a big splash.
The Bingma Division then went from house to house to inquire about the property deeds.
Zhu Bai sat in the tooth shop, took a homemade pencil, and wrote a memorial on the checkered paper printed by someone about the implementation of the official tooth shop in Fuzhou below.
Thinking about it, this seems to be no different from later people writing project proposals.
Damn it, why do I have to write it in classical Chinese, which is so difficult to pronounce by the ancients.
Just draw a flow chart or organizational chart.
The sound of horse hooves and people talking could be heard outside. Fugui went out to take a look and came back and said, "It's Prince Yan who is here."
Zhu Bai threw the pen away and ran out: "Hey, fourth brother."
Zhu Di dismounted and led him up and said, "Twelfth brother, you have helped me twice and I haven't even thanked you."
Zhu Neng followed him.
Zhu Bai smiled: "Fourth brother, you're welcome."
Zhu Di: "I will leave early tomorrow morning to return to China to continue training. I came here to say goodbye to you."
Zhu Bai: "Fourth brother, have a safe trip."
Zhu Neng knelt down and kowtowed solemnly to Zhu Bai: "Thank you very much, Your Highness King Xiang. Your Highness King Yan told me everything that happened before Xicheng. The villain was ignorant and wrongly blamed Your Highness, and was almost taken advantage of. My mother has already I moved from the shack to a low-rent house. I will repay His Highness's kindness in the future. Tomorrow, I will follow King Yan to Fengyang and say goodbye."
Zhu Bai nodded: "Well, you are still a kind and reasonable person. I did not miss you. Follow His Highness King Yan and do your best."
Zhu Di pulled Zhu Bai aside: "You have to be careful."
Zhu Bai: "Don't worry. Fourth brother, hurry up and go to Peking. If I really can't stay in Yingtian anymore, I will come to Peking to find you."
Zhu Di couldn't laugh or cry: Sometimes I really don't know whether this kid is smart or stupid. While making troubles to prevent his father from making him a vassal king, he also urged me to go to Peking to become a vassal.
Zhu Di asked: "What happened to the Xu family last time, have you found out who was behind the scenes?"
Zhu Bai said: "No. Mr. Li went back and carefully ordered his special rice paper. Not a single piece was missing. It's really strange."
Zhu Di frowned and thought for a while: "Check it slowly. If you have any news, please tell me. You should be careful yourself."
