Chapter 127 Wei Zhongxian Second?

On the night when Zhu Tongyi was the host to treat him, the students of Tai Chen Wenren, Xu Run and Zhang Xingfang gathered at Qingfeng Mingyue Tower to listen to the two censors Han Yuanxun and Chen Chenquan passionately denounced the autocratic power of the eunuch.

Zhang Xingfang was a little puzzled:

"Students heard that Director Wang is very talented and made many sharp firearms for our Ming Dynasty. Even the Battle of the Taiwan Strait can repel Japanese pirates and subsequently recover Taiwan, all depend on the firearms made by Director Wang. Director Wang made great contributions to our Ming Dynasty. Moreover, Director Wang was loyal to the emperor. In the time of crisis that day, only Director Wang sacrificed himself to follow. Director Wang made no mistakes and was loyal. It seems a bit too much to say that Director Wang became Wei Zhongxian's second place, right?"

Han Yuanxun was a little disappointed, but he had to patiently say:

"Aren't Wei Jinzhong loyal to Emperor Tianqi that day? Who knew that Wei Jinzhong would become Wei Zhongxian, whom thousands of people would later be the subject of Wei Zhongxian! "Duke Zhou was afraid of rumors, and when Wang Mang respected the wise and the nobles," he thought that Wang Mang was a traitor that day, who could see his ambition! Yuan Chonghuan of this dynasty boasted about the five years of pacifying Liao, and swearing with swearing. Who could have expected that this person colluded with the Tartars, accused of killing the meritorious officials, and attracted the Tartars to besiege Beijing. Who would have thought that Yuan Chonghuan would stolen the country! As for Wang Chengen, the eunuch, although his bad deeds are not revealed now, since ancient times, eunuchs are tyrannical and weak in the court, which will cause endless harm. How can we ignore the books of sages and watch the eunuchs go sideways!"

Chen Chenquan also said:

"The way of imperial examinations has always been to read the books of sages and inherit the ways of loyalty, filial piety and kindness. But what Wang Chengen taught is nothing but a skillful trick. If one loses the foundation and the way of sages and sages, and chases the skills of sages, then what can the way of sages exist? The emperor rewards craftsmen, but only grants craftsmen to juren and jinshi, which is suspected of exceeding the rules. What is most worrying is that Wang Chengen, the eunuch, openly puts the study of geniuses in the way of imperial examinations. If this eunuch succeeds, then he can become a scholar and a juren in the engineering college. Once it becomes a fixed rule, the students of the Ming Dynasty will abandon the way of sages and sages and become a strange trick. It can be imagined that the ethics and education will collapse and the ethics will be ruined."

After hearing this, Chen Wenren nodded repeatedly and said loudly:

"Mr. Han, what Mr. Shen said is not bad! On that day, the Military Engineering College was recruiting students, and many classmates in the Imperial College were bewitched by him and went to the Military Engineering College in a confused manner. Now they are all craftsmen, and some of them are awarded by the emperor. However, they are not worth it after they are born in the late years! We are careful to be alone, so how can we be eager for quick success and instant benefits and do the cheap craftsmanship!"

Xu Run also echoed:

"In this dynasty, I used the articles of sages to select scholars, and my talents were in line with the way of respecting Confucianism. How could the Ming Dynasty build a country with Confucianism? How could I go astray? Therefore, the engineering college is not worthy of being able to obtain scholars. One is contrary to the ancestral system, and the other is blasphemous Confucianism. Therefore, this method is absolutely not feasible! We are the emperor and should not be mistaken by the castration."

After some heated discussion, the three students of Chen, Xu and Zhang decided to mobilize the students of the Imperial College to write a letter to the emperor collectively, and never adopt the heretical imperial examination method that harms the country and the people.

Chongzhen read an exaggerated article from the Tai students, saying that the Military Engineering Academy awarded students scholars, and that the juren should not be a regular example. He quoted the words of sages and the system of ancestors, which made Chongzhen roll his eyes. Tai students' letter publicly pointed out that Wang Chengen was a eunuch, was arbitrarily and dictatorial. If he allowed him to continue, he would become the second most powerful person in Wei Zhongxian, and so on.

The Tai students were not fighting alone, and they had many allied troops this time. Liu Zongzhou, the left censor, and Huang Daozhou, the Hanlin Censor, gave advice to him very sharply. A group of censors also came one after another. In addition, Qian Qianyi, Jiang Yueguang, Zhang Shenyan, and Wang Duo all handed over the memorials. Although the words were not as fierce as Liu Zongzhou and Huang Daozhou, they all opposed another imperial examination system.

Chongzhen originally thought that this was just a gentle and gentle imperial examination reform, but he did not expect that he would face almost universal opposition.

Originally, according to the princess' idea, the Royal Military Engineering Academy not only needs to train Juren, but also train Jinshi in science and engineering. Since you pass the examination for four years, you can issue a Juren diploma, and it is natural to pass the examination for two years. The princess matches the "scholar", "juren", "jinshi" and "juren" at this time with "bachelor", "master" and "doctoral" in later generations. Isn't it the name of the diploma different? As long as the meaning is poor, isn't it the name of the diploma different?

It seems that it is enough. The princess' plan is to prepare for one step, but Chongzhen still takes a gradual attitude towards reform. Later reforms were based on the principle of "minimum risk" rather than "maximum benefits". Therefore, Chongzhen considered adopting a dual-track diploma system, and in addition, he did not touch the highest diploma of Jinshi for the time being to minimize the resistance to opposition. Chongzhen thought that the Juren diploma was not a big deal, and he would not cause any criticism.

However, Chongzhen was wrong. This reform obviously moved the cheese of the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty and aroused unanimous opposition from the civil servants.

For the students of the Military Engineering Academy, the award will be awarded. As long as it is not an example, the emperor will give a few Jinshi diplomas in a special case, which seems to be nothing serious. Moreover, these students did make contributions and were behind the military victory of the Ming Dynasty. At first, the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty thought that this was just a one-time award, and they had not reacted at all. When the emperor wanted to raise the Military Engineering Academy to the same level as the imperial examination, the civil servants finally found that the problem was serious. Award awards were just an exception, but now, some people want to turn it into another imperial examination system that is different from the current imperial examination system. The students of the Military Engineering Academy will be scholars for two years and juren for four years. Isn’t this another imperial examination system? Obviously, this set of proposals must be dominated by Wang Chengen, a castration product, which is a signal of the autocracy of the eunuch party.

The civil servants found that the channel for simple talent that they monopolized in the past was greatly threatened. They have always been the seniors who succeeded in the imperial examination to promote the juniors of the imperial examination. The entire civil servant system is the relationship between "teacher-student", "same year" and "classmates" that are climbing around. Civil servants are free to do this network of relationships. At least, all civil servants have one common teacher, that is, their pioneer Confucius Sheng.

Now, Wang Chengen, the eunuch, actually wanted to compare the skillful and lustful skills with the sages, which was unbearable! Therefore, Wang Chengen became the target of public criticism. In fact, the princess participated more of this plan, and there was no Wang Chengen's business at all, but the blame was unambiguously placed on Wang Chengen, because Wang Chengen had a motive, and the motivation was to recruit students with his skillful and lustful skills. Well, a eunuch actually wanted to be a teacher for all students in the world, and wanted to issue diplomas indiscriminately. This eunuch thought so beautifully, and there was no way!

In this time, the civil officials really felt the threat. In the past, civil officials had the upper hand in the civil servants' struggles between the Ming Dynasty, and military officials were all the superior, and military officers were like young wives in front of civil servants. However, as the war broke out, the status of military officers was invisibly promoted. The new army established by the emperor could not even control the Ministry of War, and even set up a military office, which completely subverted the tradition of civil officials in charge of military generals. Later, the clan children were let go of politics and military affairs, which was another independent

If the power of the civil servant group, the royal family and the relatives of the foreign relatives, and several forces are united, it will be a fatal threat to the civil servant group. Now it seems that Princess Changping is active in the front desk, not only interfering in the financial management and issuance of gold and silver coins in the Ming Dynasty, but also interfering in the education of the Ming Dynasty. The children of the royal family like Zhu Tongyi have already had a vague rise. If it takes time, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty will not be controlled by civil servants.

The Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty were all Confucian scholars who read the books of sages and took the world as their responsibility. Regardless of whether they were in official positions or not, they all looked down on military generals, looked down on the relatives of the royal family, and even looked down on eunuchs. Now the military generals are on par with them, and the royal family and relatives are about to rise up again. If the eunuch party gains power again, even the eunuch party has thousands of eunuchs, then the civil servants who were born in the Ming Dynasty would be a little ashamed.

Wang Chengen really felt very wronged. He was shot while lying down! Wang Chengen didn't compete with the civil servants at all. He just did something practical, but was actually exaggerated. He was called Wei Zhongxian second, which made Wang Chengen angry. He went through time and turned into a disabled person. Do you think your brothers are willing to be this eunuch who is neither male nor female! After cutting the treasure, his urine was sometimes incontinent, making the whole body smell full of urine. There was no way! After arriving in Nanjing, Wang Chengen had to invent disposable sanitary napkins, changing two a day, and taking a daily bath, so he completely bid farewell to the full body. Of course, this invention not only became popular among eunuchs, but also became increasingly popular among women. Well, it was also a good thing.

Wang Chengen complained to Chongzhen:

"Your Majesty, is it easy for me? Why did I offend these corrupt scholars after working day and night? Oh, if you have some ability, you will become Wei Zhongxian? If you have some ability, will it be Yan Song?"

Of course, Chongzhen knew Wang Chengen's grievances. He thought that he respected Liu Jizhou, who had been on a hunger strike in history and did not surrender to the Qing army, and restored him to his post. As a result, this fighter who was the first to participate in Wei Zhongxian, pointed his finger at Wang Chengen this time. This man had a grudge against the eunuch! Chongzhen thought that he had found Liu Zongzhou and was obviously asking for trouble, so he had to comfort Wang Chengen:

"These talented Jinshi don't know how to read the books of sages! Alas, they talk about one set of things, 'One is to cultivate the sage government, and there is no way to entertain the distant plans; the second is to strengthen the jade principles, and there is no way to be the master of the kindness and harm the minister's discipline; the third is to understand the country, and there is no way to be evil and dangerous to righteousness; the fourth is to treat the art of the ruling and reputation first; the fifth is to consolidate the country, and there is no way to cause internal troubles. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Zhe taught me a lesson. Liu Zongzhou was fine, he said so just that. Some people, hehe, actually, just feel that the generals can be on par with them because they touched their interests. They are unhappy! The royal family members came out to be officials and officials, endangering them to take charge of the court. They are unhappy! Well, seeing that you want to conduct the science and engineering examination, isn’t this a way to remove the resources from the bottom of the pot? This time they deprived them of their monopoly on education, so they quit. Haha! They dared not point the finger at me directly, so they had to find someone to take the blame. As a result, Director Wang won the lottery and became 'Wei Zhongxian Second', that's all!"
