"But there are so many scholars in the world who don't want His Majesty to be special. They only want to be special themselves!"
"So this is where the dilemma lies. Because this dynasty is not a country of Mongolia, Yuan, Liao, and Jin, the monarch and the people are of the same race, so it is difficult to use the clan of the monarch to force all the people to be slaves."
Shen Shixing replied.
Ye Xianggao nodded after hearing this.
At this time, Shen Shixing asked Ye Xianggao tentatively: "So, do you, Ye Jinqing, want to resign?"
Ye Xianggao said: "I want to see if even justice and loyalty have to give in to the evil of the world's people. If I really have to give in, then I want to resign. Even if my life's fame is wasted, it is not a pity. After all, the subordinates are the children of military families."
Shen Shixing nodded and said nothing more.
He knew what Ye Xianggao meant. If there was any group in the Ming Dynasty that needed fair treatment the most, it was undoubtedly military households.
Therefore, for people with military backgrounds, what they want to see more is justice.
This way.
Zhu Yijun's decree to strictly deal with those who cheated in the examination room was quickly passed down.
At the same time, the resignations of many officials also flew into Xiyuan like snowflakes.
Zhu Yijun did not show any weakness and directly asked Shen Shixing to approve them all, and approved each one he submitted.
"Resigning is not abandoning the king, nor is it a threat. It is leaving in a way that is in line with the king's laws and etiquette. As the saying goes, accept with a small stick and walk with a big stick. We are leaving today, as your majesty said, it is a good time to get together and part ways. "
After Liu Yingjie resigned, he spoke to Zhang Xueyan and other ministers who also resigned and left.
Zhang Xueyan nodded, then looked at the increasing number of officials preparing to leave in the pavilion and said, "It's just that more people are resigning than expected. This will undoubtedly affect the court's plans. Perhaps His Majesty will adopt yesterday's policy because of this." Say it."
"Hopefully!"
Liu Yingjie said with a wry smile.
Xu Guo, who was also here, squinted his eyes against the wind and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't accept it. At least you don't have to be caught in the middle. If your Majesty really reorganizes the examination room and there will be no fraud in the examination room, that's what I would like to see."
"How can it be rectified?"
Yu Shenxing said with a smile at this time, "Now there are just many Beijing officials resigning. I am afraid that many officials from various places will resign one after another. At that time, it will really affect the government. I don't know." How many big thieves and gangsters will appear, and it is not a good thing for the country that so many wise men are not used among the people."
"Therefore, Your Majesty will not fail to panic. He is afraid that within a month, he will have to change his decree and no longer treat Qingliu harshly, just like when Taizu had to admit the difference between high and low."
After Yu Shenxing said this, Liu Yingjie, Zhang Xueyan and others all said:
"I hope so."
…
"All the military officers recruited and trained by the Jingwei Martial Arts School will be transferred to the two capitals and local civilian officials first. Those with military medals will be given priority to be transferred to the civil servants of the two capitals."
"Ordinary martial arts disciples who study in Jingwei martial arts and clan disciples who study in Zongxue are also allowed to become civil servants. There are merit examinations and clan examinations. After passing the examinations, these children will be selected to serve in the ministry or local prefectures and counties according to their level. official."
"All military orphans trained by Xingming Academy, Military Administration Academy, Ming Dynasty Ruling School, Jinyiwei, and Emperor's Sixth Guards will be transferred to civil service as soon as they can, especially those in military leadership positions such as governor and military preparation."
Xiyuan.
Zhu Yijun told Shen Shixing, Qi Jiguang, Hai Rui, Li Chengliang, and Zhang Jingxiu how to deal with the shortage of officials in the ruling system caused by the resignation of a large number of civilian officials.
Hai Rui, who was in charge of appointing officials, said yes.
Then, Zhu Yijun asked Shen Shixing: "Have the birthplaces of the people who resigned this time been calculated?"
Shen Shixing replied: "The cabinet has made statistics, and most of them are Confucian and ethnic."
"I knew it!"
"These two scholars have been treated favorably for too long and they think they are very important."
Zhu Yijun said something and then said: "In special times, there is no need to be promoted for the time being. Next, among the remaining civil servants, those with military status will be given priority to be promoted to important official positions, especially officials of the Six Departments, local governors, etc." "
Shen Shixing and Hai Rui bowed their hands and said yes.
Then, Zhu Yijun looked at Qi Jiguang: "The military attache will directly check the place of origin. Anyone who is not a military member will be asked to transfer himself and his relatives to the military. Those who are unwilling will be fired directly, and those who are willing to transfer will be given a transfer subsidy."
Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang also said yes.
Zhu Yijun then said to Zhang Jingxiu: "Jinyiwei selects older undercover Jinyiwei who are qualified for various important civil servant positions. For example, those who previously worked as small staff around some civil servants will be reported to the Ministry of Personnel and promoted to civil servants. "
Zhang Jingxiu also followed suit and said yes.
As a result, while many resignations were sent to the Forbidden City for approval, many appointment letters were also issued.
Guerrilla Zhong Changdong, whose physical fitness declined due to injuries and could no longer serve as a military attache, was appointed Shaoqing of Taipusi Temple because of his outstanding military exploits and good results in the martial arts examination in Beijing.
Fu Laipeng, the minister of Taipu Temple, was about to submit his resignation letter when he saw Zhong Changdong striding in with a scar on his face, so he asked in surprise:
"Are you the new servant Shaoqing?"
Zhong Changdong nodded and handed over the official documents: "Master Fu, you will know after taking a look."
After Fu Laipeng read Zhong Changdong's resume contained in the document, he suddenly looked shocked: "How could the imperial court allow a military minister to serve as a civilian again?"
"Is there anything that can't be done? Taipu Temple is in charge of Ma Zheng, isn't it? I'm already very familiar with Ma Zheng, and Jingwei's martial arts is the best in Ma Zhengyi's subject examination, otherwise they wouldn't let me come to Taipu Temple. Temple.”
"Mr. Fu, are you looking down on others?"
Zhong Changdong said.
After hearing this, Fu Laipeng kept shaking his head: "This is not allowed! This is absolutely not allowed!"
"The imperial edict has been issued. It doesn't mean that it can't be done just because the public says it can't be done."
Zhong Changdong said again.
After hearing this, Fu Laipeng felt like there was a thunder in his ears, and he immediately sat back: "The imperial edict has been issued."
"Old clock!"
Geng Wenyuan, the former military commander and Zhong Changdong's good friend, walked in at this time and called Fu Laipeng.
"Old Geng!"
Zhong Changdong turned around and was overjoyed when he saw him, then hugged him and laughed.
Then, Zhong Changdong saw that he was also wearing civilian official uniform and asked, "Have you been promoted too?"
Geng Wenyuan said: "Yes, I was asked to be the Prime Minister of Taipu Temple just because I did well in Ma Zhengyi's examination. In addition, he disliked me and became a cripple. He insisted on letting me come here instead of working in the pro-military guard. .”
"I was worried about having no company, but I didn't expect you to come."
Zhong Changdong said as he pulled Geng Wenyuan towards Fu Laipeng: "Let's meet Shangguan."
Geng Wenyuan then handed over his hand and said, "Is your Excellency Mr. Fu?"
Fu Laipeng glanced at Geng Wenyuan and then at the resignation letter in his hand.
Zhong Changdong glanced at Fu Laipeng's resignation and asked, "Do you want to resign too, sir?"
"Who wants to resign?"
Fu Laipeng suddenly stood up and shouted.
Then, while glaring at these two people, he muttered in his heart: "Unless you let me, Ding You, I will not resign my position and abandon the king even if I die! Let the whole dynasty be filled with vulgar people!"
Fu Laipeng said, threw up his sleeves and walked out.
No coincidence.
As a large number of new officials were added to various yamen, officials who had not resigned or were about to resign were surprised by the new officials.
"It's all chaos, it's all chaos."
"Five of the newly recruited officers in the six subjects are military attachés from Xingming Academy!"
"What do you think Shenwu County and Haiqiongshan are going to do?"
On this day, everything happened in the Criminal Division. Yan Shiqing spoke excitedly after arriving at the Sixth Division.
