First Minister of Ming Dynasty

　　Luo Guanzhong was used to killing officials under Zhang Shicheng and hacked to death with a single knife. What is surprising... But in Zhu Yuanzhang's place, facing this high butcher knife, Luo Guanzhong felt a different place, this taste is not right!

While he was still thinking about it, Zhang Ximeng stood up, and when Zhu Yuanzhang approached, he did not evade, and said directly: "Lord, if you want to reopen the universe and achieve a great cause like no one before, you must use great courage and courage. ! Under the rule of the Great Yuan, we certainly have to win over and reuse, but for those who are incurable and unwilling to change, we don’t have to think about it, and it’s not worth compromising with them. To treat these people, we must. Use an iron fist, use a heavy punch! Of course, the lord also needs literati, so boldly suggest that the lord can run a school and train by himself!"

　　"Cultivate yourself?" Lao Zhu's eyes lit up. Of course he knew how much improvement he had achieved by studying with Zhang Ximeng during this period of time... He had previously imagined that he would let his generals read books and improve their horizons. Nowadays, there is nothing wrong with running schools and training civil servants!

　　 The civil servants trained by me are naturally easier to use!

　　 In fact, it is quite difficult for civil officials of the level like Bai Jingen to win over them...We must give them preferential treatment, allow officials and gentry to be tax-exempt, grace the descendants, respect Confucianism and Mencius, and govern the country according to Confucianism.

　　 In short, they must keep their position in exchange for their assistance.

　　 But the question is, once these conditions are agreed, what will happen to the ideas that have been formed in Zhu Yuanzhang's army?

　　 The most important uniformity system, should we insist on it?

　　 Once they compromised, wouldn't they be wasting their efforts!

　　Old Zhu thought a little, and finally nodded, with a relieved smile on his face, and exclaimed: "Mr.'s words are indeed the most logical and famous saying, we agree, and it is necessary to have Mr. Hard work to be."

Zhang Ximeng smiled and said: "The lord is polite. There are thousands of scholars in the world who are willing to follow Yuan Ting and run to the dark. There are only a few who do not want to change. This is not difficult to do...or the lord can ask. Mr. Luo?"

　　 In one sentence, he led the matter to Luo Guanzhong.

　　 At this time, Lao Luo was still immersed in a huge shock, unable to extricate himself from it!

　　 He even doubted his ears, what are these two people doing?

　　 School?

　　 Train civil servants?

　　 What a big tone!

　　In all the uprisings, a group of people immediately smashed the world, seized the country, and then handed it over to the civil officials.

　　 It is precisely because of this that there is a dynasty rotation, and Confucian scholars are always on stage.

　　 If they do this, will there be positions for Confucius and Mencius sages in the future? Does the emperor have the final say in Confucian education?

its not right!

　　How can he be the emperor?

　　 The emperor should be His Royal Highness!

　　 Luo Guanzhong shook his head vigorously, but in spite of this, he also knew one thing clearly, Zhu Yuanzhang showed the pattern of means and heartiness, far beyond Zhang Shicheng's ability to compare.

　　 This is a character, a very powerful character!

　　 It's just that between their words, their attitude towards literati, and thinking about running their own schools and cultivating talents... But they are far inferior to Corporal Cheng Wang Lixian!

　　 So I would rather follow King Cheng than help someone whose surname is Zhu.

　　Moreover, most of the people of insight in the world, like themselves and their teachers, will take refuge in the king of Cheng, such as the king of the world...Although the surname Zhu is very ambitious, he will definitely fail, for sure!

　　 Luo Guanzhong regained his spirit and stabilized his mind. Coincidentally, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "Mr. Luo thought we were running a school to train talents. What about this idea?"

　　 Luo Guanzhong pondered for a moment, and then smiled: "Even the Yuan Ting has been too learned in all dynasties, and so is it. It is natural for the country to cultivate talents for their own use!"

　　 Zhang Ximeng smiled and said, "If the practice is the main focus, then the study of Confucian classics should be the secondary position?"

　　 Luo Guanzhong was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Virtue comes first, how can we not cultivate morality, but only cultivate talent? It is not a wise move to think that such an act will only deviate from the enlightenment of sages!"

　　 Obviously, although there have been official studies throughout the ages, the content of learning is not something that the emperors of the past dynasties can call the shots. Naturally, it is self-evident what kind of talents are cultivated.

　　 Zhang Ximeng would like to have a few more words with Luo Guanzhong to see how well this one looks... Guo Ying came in from outside.

　　 "Your superior, sir, Bai Jingen has already sent to the practice field. People from all directions are here, there are many people!"

　　Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly asked: "How is it? Is there anything in life?"

　　 After all, Bai Jingen's official voice is not bad. If he provokes dissatisfaction among the people, it will be difficult to handle conflicts.

　　 Guo Ying scratched his head, "The superior, the humble servant feels that the people don't seem to be grieving for Bai Jing's grievances, on the contrary, they are here for revenge!"

　　 "Avenging?"

　　 Lao Zhu was also surprised, didn't he say that Bai Jingen's official voice is not bad?

　　 How come so many people come to him to settle accounts?

　　 Is this good official also fake?

　　 Lao Zhu immediately became interested, "Sir, let's go and see."

　　 Zhang Ximeng agreed and hurriedly followed Zhu Yuanzhang. Luo Guanzhong also followed, and before he reached the practice ground, he saw a crowd of people, like a tide.

　　 Don't look at Lao Luo's writings, he can't move hundreds of thousands of troops, boundless... But when he really faces thousands of people, his head is suddenly not enough.

　　 is densely packed, similar to an ant's nest, the pressure is too great, Luo Guanzhong can't help but sweat from his back.

　　 Bai Jingen, who was escorted to the practice field, was surprised at this time and couldn't understand it at all.

　　 In panic, with strong anger.

　　 are a bunch of spoilers!

　　Like Zhu Yuanzhang and them, they are born anti-thief, and they are self-defeating!

　　 This official has tried his best to treat you so well, and you have avenged your grievances, and you really have no conscience!

　　He was angry. Bai Jingen felt that he would rather die than be a hero of the Great Yuan Dynasty. He had nothing to fear and even wanted to chant a righteous song!

"The official has a clear world and a clear conscience! In the eighth year of the Chuzhou drought, the official personally opened the warehouse to release grain and prayed for rain for ten days. Finally, the rain fell from the sky and saved a hundred thousand people! You are waiting to kill the official, What's the difference between killing your parents? Say it!"

　　 Bai Jingen screamed violently, but he was also a little confident.

　　 But his questioning did not get the people's forgiveness. On the contrary, in the crowd, the discussion sounded louder, the big guy filled his chest with anger, kept pointing and cursing, and his eyes could burst into flames.

　　 "Sure enough, they are a group of stupid men and women who can only be deceived by people, and they can't even distinguish between good and bad. The official is not ashamed. Kill if you want to kill, just let the official face the general direction!"

　　 After finishing speaking, Bai Jingen actually planned to struggle and turn his head, looking at his master, so as to die with all his loyalty.

　　 Luo Guanzhong looked at the dense crowd, and looked at Bai Jingen, who was quite passionate, and couldn't help but admire.

　　 This person is also a loyal person!

　　 No matter how different they are, they are not conspiring, but he can't speak up and save his life.

　　 Just as Luo Guanzhong sighed, Zhang Ximeng accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang to the middle of the execution ground.

　　Bai Jingen summoned his courage and yelled, "Red Thief, you and others are deceiving and rebellious! There will be no good end! The imperial court has a large army of millions, going south in the next day, and waiting for me to avenge me!"

　　 He yelled sharply, as if using all his strength.

　　 Zhang Ximeng is still calm, just sneered.

　　 "Lord, let's invite a few people to come up and let them speak freely. Anyway, there is still a while away from three o'clock in the afternoon!"

　　Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and after a while, a middle-aged man was squeezed out from the crowd. He was very thin, just a piece of skin covering his bones.

　　 can walk up aggressively, inexplicably sad and angry!

　　 "Beast! Do you dare to brag about opening a porridge factory and praying for rain? The people's blood is boiled in the pot!"

　　 After saying this, he turned his head and kowtow to Zhu Yuanzhang, crying and telling the whole story... Old Zhu listened, Zhang Ximeng also listened, and gradually became angry. But Bai Jingen, who was still arrogant just now, changed his color and shivered involuntarily.

　　 The floods and droughts at the end of the Yuan Dynasty have never ceased, and Chuzhou is no exception.

　　 After the drought, Bai Jingen did as he said, opened a porridge factory and went to the temple to pray for rain every day... The people were very grateful at first, but gradually, they felt something was wrong.

　　 It is clearly the year of disaster, the land rent and taxes should be paid less and delayed, but Chuzhou here is more than usual, earlier...Many tenant farmers can't bear it and become refugees.

　　 They go to the porridge factory to beg for food, but the porridge factory is only open for a short time in the morning, except for a few young and strong, the old and the weak, women and children.

　　 In a porridge factory, people starve to death every day, at most, more than 30 people!

Later on ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I heard that grain was coming in, but no relief was seen. After a drought, thousands of people died of starvation in Chuzhou. There were new graves in the countryside and some families. , All starved to death!

"Superior, don't be deceived by this beast! He is just doing face work... the tax collectors, the land rent collectors, are the big households, and the relief grain from outside has also fallen into the hands of the big households. They don't Send it to the common people, just to watch the big guy starve to death, and then take away the big guy's land!"

"Upper position, no one can call the shots for the little people!" The thin middle-aged man cried sobbed, "My parents, and my three children are all starving to death! I, I am not a human! To survive, I, I changed to a family... I changed a dead child! I should go to hell!"

　　 When this man said this, he suddenly tore open his shirt and grabbed the jagged bones with his hands. After a few strokes, it was **** and bloody... He was mad, as if he wanted to take his heart out!

　　 Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked, and hurriedly asked Guo Ying to stop it.

　　 Starting from this person, someone has come forward one after another. There are officials from the yamen, domestic slaves from large households, and many other people... What a good official voice is not what the large households say!

　　 Where are the real poor people qualified to speak?

　　 is not the same as wormwood!

　　 If it weren’t for seeing Zhu Yuanzhang sincerely doing things for the people, killing the tyrants and corrupt officials, but also wanting to smash the bandits and divide the land... The big guy would not dare to say it!

　　 "Master, take revenge for us!"

　　 "Master! Kill him!"

　　……

　　 Qianfu pointed out that Bai Jingen was already there, shook his head desperately, but he was sweating like rain.

　　Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth and sneered slightly, "Killing him is cheaper! Let us skin this beast! See how he cheated the world!"
