After hearing that Zhu Yijun said that he wanted to build a "Kingshi Martial Arts School", Tan Lun said: "Why does the emperor need to build a new one? There are already martial arts schools in the two capitals, and there are also martial arts schools in the capital and prefectures, and the imperial court has a system for martial arts..."
Zhu Yijun interrupted with a smile: "What about the generals?" Tan Lun was silent.
Zhu Yijun said: "In my martial arts school, there is one mountain chief, who I serve as, and there are many deputy mountain chiefs, who are selected by the governor's office, the inner court, and the Ministry of War. There is also an executive deputy mountain chief, and I already have a good candidate in mind. Yea." After Qi Jiguang heard this, his heart sounded like a drumbeat of good luck.
Zhu Yijun said: "Under the deputy mountain chief, there is an Academic Affairs Office that handles school affairs, a Political Office that trains generals to be loyal and patriotic, and a Military Aircraft Office that is responsible for temple calculations and military advice." Zhang Juzheng, Tan Lun and others listened. At this point, my throat couldn't help but feel itchy.
Zhu Yijun said: "Under the mountain chief, there are departments. There are departments such as temple calculations department, combat department, logistics department, engineering department and so on. The departments have professional departments such as firearms department, cavalry department, navy department and so on. "
"Those who teach in this department and subject are not based on official rank. They are collectively referred to as professors, associate professors, lecturers, and teaching assistants. Choose a highly respected person to be the head of the department. These professors must be the best generals in the country - if they cannot be full-time Professors will come to give several tutorials when necessary and assist in the compilation of teaching materials.”
"The students in this academy are selected by the various guards and recommended by the Ministry of War. They must be active military attachés. After entering the academy, there is no distinction between official positions and they are collectively called students."
"When students come in, Qi Jiguang will practice for the first half of the year. During the day, they will practice marching and formation, and at night, they will learn Chinese characters. The schooling system lasts for two years. In the first year, all courses in all departments are taught, and the basics are mastered. In the second year, the students are taught according to their personal interests and professors. It is recommended that you take professional courses and learn the subtleties. After you have learned the professional courses, you can graduate from the exam."
Zhang Juzheng asked: "Is the exam like a martial arts exam?" This is asking about the status of the exam. Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "No. The martial arts examination is from civilians to military attachés. This university hall is for training generals. Those without official status are not required - as long as they can graduate, they will be promoted to at least one level based on their grades."
After Zhang Juzheng and others heard this, they felt itchy in their hearts - they just wanted to shout loudly, and they also had the empty itching feeling in their hearts that they wanted to beat a child or a wife.
You say that the emperor changed the ancestral system. The martial arts of the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty were established after Yingzong. You say that he did not change it. Look at what the emperor designed. The martial arts of the Ming Dynasty is not like this. Zi Di!
Several people looked at each other for a while, and then Zhang Juzheng said: "Your Majesty, this is a big article. I have to plan it carefully. I will wait until I understand the plan before I write it."
Zhu Yijun smiled when he heard this and said: "I'm not in a hurry, just arrange these things by the end of February. I've already chosen the address of the school, it's in Nanhaizi - Zhang Hong, you need to arrange for someone to change the palace inside, and give most of it to the school." It is used by all the mountain chiefs and professors. Students and students all live in big tents. Leave a big palace for me when the time comes, and I will go there often in the future."
Zhang Juzheng and other ministers still felt itchy in their hearts after hearing this. The emperor converted the palace into a school, which was a rare act of virtue in history. But I don't know why, seeing the emperor's smiling face, I felt very empty.
Zhang Jing joked from the side: "Your Majesty, my Majesty's Royal Horse Prison will have a lot of seeds in it. Can you go to a few more?"
Zhu Yijun laughed and scolded: "You have some stupid generals, so you should do your job well! In addition, we need to select a few literate old craftsmen from the War and War Bureau to set up weapons in the martial arts department in the future." Laboratory to comprehensively improve weapons.”
Then he said to Zhang Juzheng: "I am just giving a rough outline here. It is not easy to run a school. The court must select people carefully and take charge of the school's teaching affairs in advance. I will give you another hundred days to compile the teaching materials and find the professors." , The school is built, and the students are selected!" After saying that, he took out a few pieces of paper. When everyone looked at it, it read "Outline of the Construction of the Capital Martial Arts School."
Zhang Juzheng saw that what the emperor just said was in essence, he calmly said:
"Your Majesty, why don't you change your name to Wu Xuejian and be on the same level as Imperial Academy. Besides, Your Majesty is not suitable to be a mountain chief or a wine sacrificer."
Zhu Yijun still smiled and said: "Well, I deliberately named it this way. This educational institution should not be mixed up with the imperial court. In addition, this school is all funded by internal funds. If I don't want to be the head of the mountain, who else can do this martial arts school?" ——No matter who he is, all the seeds in the world will come from his door?!"
After Zhang Juzheng and others heard this, they all knew how much the emperor valued the martial arts school. No more chatter, just take the order and retire. Zhu Yijun said: "You go to the meeting first, Qi Jiguang stays."
Qi Jiguang wanted to sing and dance, but suppressed his excitement and stayed in Wuying Hall.
...
At the end of February in Nanjing, it was drizzling, and it was the late spring cold season.
At the entrance of the Imperial College, Feng Bangning pushed aside a few scholars who were making noises there, put away his umbrella, and handed the door bag of silver in his hand to the head of the Imperial College porter along with his post.
The porter looked Feng Bangning up and down and saw a pair of peach blossom eyes on his white face. He was wearing a tassel hat that was popular in Nanjing at that time. He was wearing a green silk robe and a red jacket with delicate gardenias embroidered on them. His feet were covered with pure water socks. Bridge shoes, full of energy. She glared at him and said, "How can you get in front of the boss if you are so stupid? If you pass this post in, I won't be in trouble!"
Feng Bangning smiled broadly and said, "It doesn't matter. The old man at home has already given the boss a letter before. Just hand it over."
The concierge was tortured every day by Nanjing's scholars and supervisors, and now he saw that Feng Bangning didn't show any trace of sourness, and he knew what was going on. He showed his smile and said, "Please wait a moment, little official." After that, he went in to report the news.
After waiting for two sticks of incense, Feng Bangning entered the gate guarded by officers and soldiers under the jealous eyes of everyone at the door.
The Imperial College in Nanjing occupies a very large area, and its gardens are no less beautiful than those of wealthy merchants. Under the guidance of the handyman, Feng Bangning passed through several large archways of "Jinshi Lianjie", passed by the Dacheng Hall where Saint Confucius was worshiped, and bypassed several groups of supervisors who were chatting together, and then entered the courtyard located in the garden. Official house.
The handyman directly led him to the front of the largest courtyard in the official house and said: "Master is inside, you can just go in." He took a bunch of copper coins handed to him by Feng Bangning, bent down and thanked him, smiling. gone.
Feng Bangning looked around and said with a smile in his heart: "It's still more comfortable for an official in Nanjing. This small wine festival uses such a big yard." He straightened his clothes and entered the official office. At the door, there was another person accompanying him to offer wine, and he was led around the screen wall, passed through the hand-drawing verandah, and then arrived in front of the court.
Entering the hall, I saw a thin official sitting behind the big case, wearing a black gauze on his head and a red Yunyan patchwork suit. I guessed that he was Yao Hongmo, the wine minister of Nanjing Imperial College. He quickly knelt down, said that he was born late and paid homage. The other end knocked on the ground, making a thumping sound.
Yao Hongmo is about forty years old, with slender cheeks, a longer beard, and five black locks hanging straight down his chest. Seeing Feng Bangning's courtesy, he rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "That's it, Mr. Feng, get up and talk."
Yao Hongmo had just been promoted from the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple in Nanjing to the Imperial Academy's sacrificial wine a few days ago. He was changed from the fourth grade to the fourth grade. He was not in a good mood. At this time, I felt a little better when I heard Feng Bangning knocking his head. After Feng Bangning got up, he asked: "Who are you, Li Xiushan? Why is there a letter?"
Feng Bangning said with a smile: "My lord, Mr. Xiushan is an old friend of my uncle, so he has the audacity to get involved."
Yao Hongmo heard this and asked curiously: "Li Xiushan is a eunuch, how did your uncle know that? Could he be someone from the eunuch?" He was thinking about the current and former officials named Feng who could have friendship with Li Xiushan. Matches the number.
Feng Bangning lowered his eyebrows and replied with a smile: "My dear sir, my uncle is Xiushan Gong's childhood friend. Xiushan Gong is nostalgic for old times, so he gave me a little face. His nickname is not worth mentioning."
Yao Hongmo rolled his eyes and his mood turned bad again. Because he was conceited and learned, he was a bit sour and impatient to deal with people in the eunuch circle. Seeing that Feng Bangning didn't want to show his heel, if ordinary people had replied like this, they would have left it alone, but they couldn't do it at this time.
Because Li Xiushan was the eunuch guarding Nanjing and had much more power than him, the Duke of Nanjing didn't dare to easily refute Li Xiushan's reputation - Yao Hongmo was annoyed, but he was not a fool.
He had no choice but to change his face and say: "Dong Feng's big deal has caused a commotion among Nanjing scholars and people. It's really scary!"
