Daming: Stealing Chen Yuanyuan at the beginning

Chapter 112 I'm afraid this number will be abolished, the secret book system
The implementation of the New Deal is bound to face many obstacles.Yan Ermei and others first spread the word everywhere, talked to many officials, and revealed little by little the emperor's willingness to carry out drastic reforms.

The results can be imagined, the vast majority of officials noticed the signs, and the discussion immediately boiled over, and the vast majority of people held opposing opinions.

But after all, the matter has not yet been brought to the table. Officials can only connect with each other in private and complain to each other. Only after the official order to implement the New Deal is issued will they jump out to oppose it.

A few days later, Li Cunming summoned Qian Bingdeng, the newly appointed Minister of Rites, and said, "Recently, I always feel that there are not enough talents in the court. If I want to open Enke, Qian Shangshu will be responsible for this matter. Since it is open Enke, then there is no need Sticking to the past habits, scholars from all over the country can participate, there is no need to hold the provincial examination, and the scholars are called to Nanjing, the Ministry of Rites organizes the examination first, selects outstanding talents, and then I will hold the palace examination."

The imperial examination is held every three years, and it has been held in Chongzhen for 16 years.The extra exam specially issued by the emperor is called Kaienke.

"You must do your best to select materials for the country!" Qian Bingdeng said.

Kaienke's decree was distributed to all provinces and governments, and scholars enthusiastically signed up and rushed to Nanjing soon.The inns in the city were full of people, and many scholars could only temporarily settle down in Gaochun County, Jurong County and other places in Yingtian Prefecture.

When scholars gathered together, it was inevitable to comment on the government.Many people were catching on to the wind, and when they heard that the imperial court planned to implement the New Deal, they began to talk about it with a half-knowledge.

Wang Chengen sent his subordinates from the East Factory to inquire about the news, and kept reporting to Li Cunming.

Li Cunming knew the actions of the scholars well, but he could bear his temper.There is still some days before the Enke exam, and he will continue to wait, waiting for more scholars to step into the net.

However, the prince Zhu Cihong did not know where he got the news that the emperor was going to implement the new policy, and he didn't know what he thought, so he went to the Hall of Martial Arts to persuade him face to face.

"Father, my ministers have heard a lot of gossip today, saying that the imperial court is going to implement a new policy, that the officials and gentry should work as one to pay the errands, and the discussions outside are raging. Father, is there such a thing?"

Li Cunming frowned and said, "You don't study in the East Palace, why do you care about such things?"

Zhu Cihong knelt down, kowtowed heavily, and said emotionally: "If there is no such thing, please ask the father to clarify the rumors and appease the officials and gentlemen. If there is such a thing, I will ask the father to take back the order, and the new policy must not be implemented! "

Li Cunming opened his eyes wide suddenly, and said sharply: "Prince, can you also intervene in the government?"

"Father, my sons and daughters are thinking about the country and society of the Ming Dynasty, not interfering in the government affairs. Since the founding of the country, scholars have been the foundation of our dynasty, and officials, gentlemen and gentlemen are the arms of our dynasty. If we lose them The support of the country will not be the country!"

Li Cunming was furious, the muscles on his face trembled, he had calculated thousands of times, but he didn't think that the first person who jumped out to speak out against the new policy was the crown prince. His anger can be imagined.

"Say, who taught you these words, isn't it Chen Zhenhui? Tell me the truth!" Li Cunming yelled while patting the dragon case.

After the cabinet was emptied, Li Cunming thought that Chen Zhenhui was a learned young hero, and ordered him to work as a teacher for the prince in the East Palace.Chen Zhenhui is too deeply involved with the Donglin Party, and Li Cunming has reason to doubt him.

Zhu Cihong insisted: "It's not that the Taifu taught my ministers to say this, it was taught by a sage! A sage has a saying that people in the world are divided into two types: gentlemen, adults and villains. Scholars are gentlemen, and my ministers want to govern the country. The most important thing is to win over the gentleman..."

"Bastard, do you know what is a gentleman and what is an adult? Yellow-mouthed child, after reading some rotten books, my mind has become confused! When I was in Ningling, I told you so much, you just listen to it." Did you say anything?"

"I see that you have been deceived by the Donglin party members, kneel down, and reflect on yourself!"

Li Cunming was so angry that he ignored the prince and left the Hall of Martial Ying immediately, out of sight and out of mind.

He rushed to Kunning Palace angrily, which shocked Queen Zhou.Queen Zhou hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, you look very bad, who made you angry?"

"It's not your good son Zhu Cihong!" Li Cunming sat down on the chair, panting, and told the whole story.

Empress Zhou was silent, turned and left.After a long while, she was dressed in courtly attire, solemnly knelt down and said: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor!"

Li Cunming was puzzled and said: "I'm about to die of anger, where does the joy come from?"

"Your Majesty, isn't it a great thing for the crown prince to take the initiative to care about government affairs and know how to speak out? This shows that the crown prince has grown up and knows how to share his father's worries. If you don't know your Majesty's great talents, your Majesty can teach and give more guidance, why should you be angry?"

Li Cunming helped the queen up, and said with a helpless smile: "You are more and more like the eldest grandson queen of Tang Taizong. Well, you are a virtuous queen, Zhu Cihong is a wise prince, and I am a foolish king, okay?"

Empress Zhou chuckled and said, "I don't dare to say that your Majesty is a foolish emperor, but my sister Yuanyuan dares to say that!"

In the evening, he had dinner in Kunning Palace, and Queen Zhou slept in bed.After the earth-shattering tenderness, the two lay on the bed, Li Cunming held the queen in his arms and meditated, with one hand still wandering freely on her plump and slim body.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Empress Zhou whispered a few times, put her arms around Li Cunming's neck and said, "Is Your Majesty still thinking about the prince? Talk to the concubine, and the concubine will talk to the prince tomorrow."

Li Cunming smiled and said, "I'm already communicating with you, using sign language!"

"Communication in sign language?" Empress Zhou was confused, but immediately realized, her face became more red and shy, "Your Majesty, how are you..."

Li Cunming continued to caress the queen, and said quietly: "If this goes on like this, the name of the prince may be abolished. Queen, I think it is better to let the prince go out to practice and let him see the sufferings of the people. I have made up my mind, and I can't let it The prince stayed in Nanjing and was influenced by pedantic scholars, so he was sent to Kaifeng."

Empress Zhou said: "It's good to go to Kaifeng. General Zhou Yuji is loyal, courageous and resourceful. He is a handsome talent. Let the prince follow General Zhou, and he will definitely gain a lot! The prince has read a lot of books, and he should also go to the army to practice. Only those who are capable of writing and martial arts can govern the country and secure the country.”

"You are willing to let the prince suffer, I am so relieved!" Li Cunming laughed loudly, and then lifted the quilt to cover the two of them, "Queen, let's practice another trumpet!"

……

The next day, Li Cunming sent several Jinyi guards to escort the prince out of Nanjing City to Kaifeng, and issued an order to severely reprimand Chen Zhenhui.

Seeing that the emperor was still not in a good mood, Ren Qi said, "Your Majesty, although I am stupid, I can tell that there are ups and downs in the city of Nanjing, and something big will happen recently. I only hate that I am a disabled person and cannot Share your worries for His Majesty."

Li Cunming turned his head to stare at Ren Qi, and suddenly smiled: "I was so mad because of the prince, I almost forgot a big event! Ren Qi, you told me that your father died at the hands of corrupt officials, you hate it to death Corrupt officials, aren't they?"

"Not only do I hate them to death, I wish I could kill all the corrupt officials in the world! Hey, it would be great if my Ming Dynasty produced another Bao Qingtian and another Hai Qingtian!"

"Bao Zheng and Hai Rui are already dead. It is better to ask for yourself than to ask for others." Li Cunming suddenly lowered his face and said every word, "Ren Qi, I will send you to Jiaxing Mansion to take the lead in implementing the New Deal in Jiaxing Mansion. It caused the resistance of the local officials and gentry in Jiaxing Prefecture, needless to say, being criticized verbally and in writing, and even life-threatening, do you dare to go?"

"As long as you can kill corrupt officials and punish unscrupulous gentry, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, your ministers will not be afraid!"

Ren Qi puffed up his chest and said with emotion, then frowned: "It's just that I don't know the big characters, how can I manage a local state capital?"

"It doesn't matter if you can't read or write. If you have the country in your heart, you will be able to move forward bravely and make a lot of tricks. What I value you kid is because you have a lot of tricks. I will also make arrangements for you and send you assistants."

"Since this is the case, I, Ren Qi, will go through fire and water to die, even if I break another wrist, I will carry out the new policy in Jiaxing Mansion!" Ren Qi said.

"Good job!" Li Cunming praised, picked up a tin box from the table, and handed it to Ren Qidao, "This box is locked, and there are two keys, one is for you to keep, and the other is in my hands. "

"After you go to Jiaxing Mansion, any letter or memorial will be placed in a tin box, and only we, the monarch and his ministers, can open it. Ren Qi, I have specially set up a secret system for you. You should understand the meaning of this right?"

Ren Qi plopped down on his knees, tearfully grateful and said: "I will follow the emperor on the saddle and horseback all my life, without any complaints or regrets!"
