Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen really didn't think so much.

It was Emperor Chongzhen who came up with Han Feizi's Legalism on purpose.

But when it came to experimenting with Xinming Island, Emperor Chongzhen didn't have that plan.

Because when Emperor Chongzhen was flipping through "Han Feizi", he discovered a very interesting phenomenon.

It is said that Confucianism pays attention to the monarch and ministers, and the ministers have to die if the ruler wants to die.

In fact, the Legalists are obviously better at playing - in the first chapter "Meeting Qin for the First Time", a problem was clearly pointed out at the beginning of the chapter.

This is the same reason, all the counselors are not loyal.

How do you understand this thing?

It's the King of Qin, you are so awesome, so is Daqin, staring at anyone who is pregnant, the territory is getting bigger and bigger day by day.

But now?

The army is poor, the soldiers and people are exhausted, the reserves are empty, the fields are barren, and the granaries are short of food. The surrounding princes are not very convinced.

There is no other reason for this, it is that your old man's servants are not loyal enough!

Well, in one sentence, the responsibility of the King of Qin was completely taken away, and all the bad consequences were caused by the lack of care of the courtiers and the reason for being too nonsense.

Moreover, the later Legalist scholars also realized this one after another—for example, Chao Cuo, who brought about the cutting of feudal vassals, also triggered the Seven Kings Rebellion, and went to the execution ground as soon as he took the blame.

How could Emperor Chongzhen not like such a good Legalist?Do you want to like those Cheng-Zhu Confucianism who just gossip about the relationship between heaven and man when they have nothing to do?

The point is that you, Zhu Pahui, married a nun yourself.

Hemp sale batch!

After the palace examination was over, Emperor Chongzhen returned to the palace, intending to take Wen Tiren, Zhang Ruitu and his group to see what the level of this batch of scholars was.

Emperor Chongzhen remembered the news that Tian Ergeng had reported to him when he first returned to Beijing - no one rebelled, and it wasn't that there was another big problem, but someone was secretly organizing to promote Legalism.

Now Emperor Chongzhen was very happy. He had just killed a wave in the south, so someone saw an opportunity?

There are still many smart people.

So there was also a situation where Emperor Chongzhen suddenly made disgusting legalist topics.

Moreover, Emperor Chongzhen planned to change his theory every year in the future to disgust people.

But before the review of the test papers started, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly said: "Zhang Aiqing will review the third question of all the test papers, Wen Aiqing will review the second question of all the test papers, and I will review the first question."

Because Emperor Chongzhen suddenly remembered that the famous historical book "Tang Zhuan" he had read in his previous life was the way to review the introductory test papers of Yushan Academy.

And this also prevented the first question from being deliberately dismissed by Wen Tiren or Zhang Ruitu.

People's hearts cannot withstand temptation, so it is better to eliminate the possibility of problems from the root.

It's just that after Emperor Chongzhen began to review the test papers, he couldn't help laughing angrily.

Some goddamn things are really otherworldly.

For example, how did a scholar answer the second question?

"Passing through a certain county, there are a lot of people, they have enough food, they are old enough to depend on, their young are raised well, and the government is sound and the people are harmonious. They all call your majesty good governance."

There are also no brains.

"It's been thousands of years since Qin established prefectures and counties. Xinming Island is also part of our Ming Dynasty. For example, prefectures and counties should be established together."

Others, when answering the first question, simply broke the jar and answered a mere four words: "This is a fallacy."

If the answers to the second question and the third question are all kinds of funny, then those who have such an answer in the first question are idiots.

Emperor Chongzhen really wanted to bring this scholar to him and ask him, have you heard my question clearly?

What I asked was how to put an end to the existence of traitors, and you told me that Han Zi's theory is a theory of fallacies?

Then how did the Qin and Han Dynasties become the fifth Hu in the first Han?

Seeing this kind of answer, Emperor Chongzhen simply lost interest in reading the second and third questions, and chose to be dismissed directly.

This kind of bastard who can't even understand the question will be a fool if he becomes an official.

Of course, everything written by the blind chicken in the second question was also dismissed.

This question was passed in the first year of Chongzhen, and this question was asked in the second year, but if you are not a fool, you should be a little bit forced, right?

But he didn't, and he started holding his mother's feet.

I want you to hold it, go home and hold your sage book.

As for the third question, Emperor Chongzhen didn't care at all whether what these people wrote was correct or wrong.

Because although the third question is used to select talents, there is no fixed answer to this question at all.

Because there is really no precedent before.

If it is the native land of Ming Dynasty, no matter who dares to answer the feudal system among these students, it will definitely be unlucky.

But on a large island like Xinming Island far away from the mainland, no matter whether it is a county or a feudal vassal, you can answer casually.

As long as it can justify itself and make Emperor Chongzhen feel that these ideas have the possibility of realization, even if it is very small, then it is considered a correct answer.

The big deal is to test it on Xinming Island first.

Emperor Chongzhen laughed when he saw the third question in a test paper asking whether the adherents of the Yin and Shang dynasties had a heart for Ming Dynasty, how far it was from other western barbarians, the number of troops in the Ming Dynasty, and the number of cities to be built. .

This time I really laughed.

There are quite a few idiots among the scholars in Ming Dynasty, but there are also some who are really capable.

For example, in this test paper, the answer to the first question is to strictly enforce the law, obey the law, and punish the lawbreakers.

Moreover, it is also clearly mentioned that the laws of Ming Dynasty have not been revised for 300 years, and they are no longer suitable for the current situation, and appropriate revisions should be made.

As for the second question, what did this guy say?

How about the magistrate of a certain county, how many people in the county, how many are poor, how many are rich, what is the public opinion, and what time is it when I pass by, it is clearly written on it.

And one write is more than 20 counties.

Although the writing is relatively simple, and the data estimates are not accurate, but without relying on the information of Jinyiwei and Dongxichang, Emperor Chongzhen can have a certain understanding of the general situation of these more than 20 counties with this test paper alone. understanding.
