Huangzhuang, Xingming Academy.
"The yellow sand wears golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be returned until it is broken."
"We laugh and talk about drinking the blood of Xiongnu when we are thirsty and eating the meat of Hulu when we are hungry."
"Finishing the king's affairs in the world will win his reputation both during and after his death."
On the walls of the academy, wherever words needed to be engraved, Zhu Yijun requested that they only be inscribed with content about making contributions and serving the country.
There is no other reason.
Zhu Yijun hoped that all the orphans of loyal martyrs who were educated here would have the ambition to serve the country.
After Zhu Yijun came to the academy and saw these contents, he nodded with satisfaction and said to Xu Wei: "These military children will definitely be my arms in the future. Therefore, you must train them seriously so that they can get on the horse." To govern the army, dismount and govern the people.”
After hearing this, Xu Wei said: "Your Majesty, don't worry! These orphans, whose fathers and brothers were killed in battle for the country, are easy to sharpen their aspirations. What's more, your Majesty also intends to encourage them with the honor of his father and brothers and the deeds of famous officials in ancient and modern times. But if your Majesty really wants to make them in the future Being able to mount a horse to govern the army and dismount the horse to govern the people will only displease those who only serve as officials."
"If you don't like it, don't like it. If his father and brother are killed for the country, I will look at him differently and make him wear python jade since he was a child. He will be favored by me and make him more valuable than ordinary people."
Zhu Yijun replied.
Because those who died in the service of the country can receive military medals made of python jade, so the orphans of the loyal martyrs in Xingming Academy all wore python jade because of their father and brother's achievements.
For this reason, Zhu Yijun mentioned just now that if the father or brother of an entrepreneur is killed in battle for the country, he can wear a python jade since he was a child.
Zhu Yijun obviously deliberately emphasized the political status of those who can wear python jade.
When Xu Wei heard what Zhu Yijun said, he reported: "Your Majesty, there are a few children who are ready for training. Do you think we can let them go?"
"Of course he must end up!"
"It is not that children with military status cannot take the imperial examination. If they can pass the examination and go all the way to Jinshi, I will look at them differently and treat them differently from children from other countries."
Zhu Yijun said.
"According to the order!"
Xu Wei cupped his hands and replied.
"But you, Xu Wei, must remember that all military students must not only be outstanding in their articles, but must also be proficient in bows and horses and have strategies in mind. Especially the military students in Xingming Academy. This is whether the Ming Dynasty will have a group of people who are good at fighting and governing in the future. The foundation of the person.”
Zhu Yijun then gave instructions again.
After hearing this, Xu Wei held up his hands and said yes, and asked with a cautious smile: "Your Majesty, may I also be admitted to the military?"
"you?"
Zhu Yijun looked back at Xu Wei.
Xu Wei hurriedly knelt down and said: "I understand what your Majesty means. Those who can join the military will be your majesty's lackeys in the future. Although I have no talent or virtue, I hope to be your majesty's lackeys, and do not want to be just a lackey." Literary people are just making fun of Shilin!"
"You, Xu Wei, have helped Hu Zongxian to pacify the Japanese. Naturally, you can join the army, but the Jin people may not be willing to do so. Let's wait until the time is right."
Zhu Yijun said.
"Yes! I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness."
Xu Wei stood up and replied.
Zhu Yijun had to admit that Xu Wei was also a smart person, and he realized the bright future of military children so quickly.
But Zhu Yijun can't guarantee that children with military status will really have better prospects than ordinary people, because now, except for Zhang Juzheng, the chief minister, who is a member of Jinyiwei, not many people in power are children with military status.
All of this is just an idea at the moment. Only after Zhu Yijun cultivates more military disciples can the new Ming Dynasty Wuxun Group be truly re-formed with military status as their native place.
Now, all Zhu Yijun can do is to provide adequate wages to the military households, curb their flight, and try to educate them as much as possible.
"Are the military households in various health stations paid enough?"
Since Zhang Juzheng knew Zhu Yijun's intention, he also paid special attention to the treatment of military households. When he came to pay homage to Tan Lun in person, he asked Fang Fengshi, the new Minister of War, about the military households.
Fang Fengshi replied: "We have already made enough. Thanks to the New Deal, the national funds have not been short of money in the past few years, and we have never dared to default."
Zhang Juzheng nodded, offered incense to Tan Lun, and cried for a while in front of Tan Lunling. Then he summoned Shen Li, the new bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and whispered:
"Military households are the stable foundation of the country, and you and I are both military members. Therefore, in the future, you should always pay attention to the issue of paying military households!"
"Students should remember their teachers' teachings."
Shen Li hurriedly cupped his hands and replied.
After Zhang Juzheng confessed, he told Shen Li: "Go and get to know the generals' disciples who have come to express condolences for me. Look for those who are outstanding in appearance and polite in conversation and look for opportunities to recommend them to me."
Shen Li cupped his hands and said yes, and walked towards where Qi Panzong and other general disciples were gathered.
Seeing this, Ma Ziqiang stopped Shen Li midway and asked, "What did Yuan Fu say to you?"
Zhang Siwei also followed and asked: "That's right, Zhonghua, I have always thought that you are different from others. Now Yuanfu favors you alone, and more than me, Grand Uncle Zong, and Shen Rumo. It seems that he is interested in the future." , you will inherit his mantle, but because you and Yuan Fu are both in the military?"
Shen Li knew that these two people also had military backgrounds, but he still only replied: "It's just a private matter! Everyone knows that Yuan Fu has a daughter."
After Zhang Siwei and Ma Ziqiang heard this, they stopped asking further questions and let Shen Li go.
Zhao Zhenji and Hai Rui watched this scene from the sidelines and just sneered at each other without saying much.
Because the storm of seizing love had just ended, the officials who were still willing to stay in the court either supported seizing love or wanted to continue serving as officials, so no matter what Zhang Juzheng did, no one had any objections.
However, whether it was Jingwei Martial Arts, Xingming Academy, or even the Military and Political Academy, allowing Wu Jinshi to participate in the literary examination showed that the emperor had the intention of advocating martial arts and cultivating a new aristocratic class.
Therefore, many civil servants who hoped that only civil servants and officials could rule together with the emperor still had some worries about this.
Unfortunately, Zhang Juzheng, the head of the civil service, seemed to be advocating for this matter, which made many civil servants who were worried about the re-emergence of the Wuxun Group wonder whether this was Zhang Juzheng's intention.
And because of the thought that Zhang Juzheng is now in the limelight, he is not an emperor but has the real power of the emperor, so that no one dares to ask directly, they can only secretly speculate on Zhang Juzheng's true intentions, and worry that Zhang Juzheng will completely betray the entire literati and officials, and lose his ass. Completely sit on Wu Xun's side.
For many civil servants who do not want to see this scene, it is not impossible for Zhang Juzheng to do this, because Zhang Juzheng's family itself has military status.
Therefore, some civil servants who do not want to see Wu Xun rise again are secretly trying to find out Zhang Juzheng's true purpose.
Zhu Yijun also had Zhang Juzheng in front of him to carry out some politics that were not in line with the intentions of the literati and officials, so his intentions as an emperor were always hidden.
As a result, Zhu Yijun can continue to build his own base in secret.
It’s just that the years are passing by like a white horse.
With Zhu Yijun's wedding, more and more complicated etiquette were completed.
From the selection of the queen to the interview, and finally to the ceremony held on February 19, the sixth year of Wanli, it means that the day when Zhu Yijun walked from behind the scenes to the stage is getting closer and closer.
