Chapter 209: Discovering the Treasure

A group of scholars were in Baohe Hall and answered the questions all day, until the lunar hour, and they handed over the papers. Then they forced Zhu Youxiao to suffer, and took a bunch of papers and went back to Yangxin Hall to review the papers!

You can’t be lazy when marking papers. After all, you are selecting talents by yourself, and you really lack talents now.

However, it is still possible to ask the Sili Supervisor to review the papers in part, such as the first question.

The eunuchs from Silijian read all the papers, but they did not finish the first question, but Zhu Youxiao didn't read them.

All the reactionaries were scammers, so they stayed there any time they were cool. It would be fine to be an official in the future, but they only had idle positions and would not give them any real power, and even censors would not let them be.

After the papers were screened, Zhu Youxiao was surprised to find that there were only more than one hundred copies left in the remaining papers.

"This..." Zhu Youxiao pondered for a while and could only be silent. It seemed that there were quite a few scholars from the industrial and commercial class.

Some have vital interests, while others are brainwashed by public opinion.

Of course, they were quite backbone. When the emperor asked them if they were levied on commercial tax, he straightforwardly wrote down his opposition and made a lot of big truths. In fact, Zhu Youxiao had been used to these truths for a long time. He said that sleeping was just a few routines. These rookies who had just entered the official career were still a little tender.

"Okay, there are only more than 100 questionnaires, which saves a lot of effort." Zhu Youxiao then thought freely and easily. He also wanted to get more talents. What can these scholars do not cooperate well? He could only do it.

Then Zhu Youxiao plunged into the marking work. The reason for marking the papers himself was that he was worried about missing some talents. After all, he had to make Enke out with great fanfare and the talents leaked from under his nose, which was a huge loss.

When he was reviewing the papers, Zhu Youxiao was very dedicated.

These scholars had various ideas and plans in the questions they answered. Although most of them were ordinary and even unfeasible, they still gave Zhu Youxiao a lot of inspiration.

My whole mind was always thinking. Before I knew it, it was midnight and I couldn't help but stretch.

"Your Majesty, you'd better take a break early! It's already the fifth hour now." The little eunuch Yang Guang saw Zhu Youxiao stopping a little, and suggested: "The master of the imperial kitchen has prepared mutton medicinal soup for you. Why not send me a bowl of it?"

"Okay! Go and get some food, I will read a few more papers by the way." Zhu Youxiao nodded and looked at a lot of papers, and was a little dizzy for a moment. But let's look at a few more papers!

After a while, the imperial meal was delivered.

Because winter is coming, the stomach is full of yang and the digestive ability is enhanced, it is a good time to get nourishing. The imperial chefs in the imperial kitchen change their ways to make medicinal food for Zhu Youxiao every day. Because Zhu Youxia is now persisting in exercise, and the imperial chefs in the imperial kitchen are very concerned about nutritional matching and have become much stronger.

When it comes to nutritional matching, traditional Chinese medicine is obviously the real expert. Because the word "nutrition" is a term in traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine's understanding of nutrition is that various proteins, vitamins, etc. are classified as Fengqi. After it is involved, it is combined with natural clean qi (breathed oxygen) and biochemically into Weiqi (immune system), Zongqi and other things.

The most direct difference is that Western medicine believes that local chickens and feed chickens only have protein, but Chinese people see the existence of qi. Whether it is taste or the feeling of tonic after eating, they are completely different.

Of course, the nutritional system of Westerners also has certain advantages, that is, they are divided into proteins and vitamins in a relatively detailed manner, but they are obviously not good in the overall situation. The Western medicine system is like a piece of building blocks, and the system theory is very low-level.

Zhu Youxiaozheng planned to stop and drink a bowl of mutton soup before talking. Suddenly his hand shook and he didn't care about any mutton soup. Because he saw the three words "Lu Xiangsheng".

Lu Xiangsheng was actually Lu Xiangsheng. Zhu Youxiao looked at the paper in his hand and couldn't help but widen his eyes. Lu Xiangsheng was a famous existence in the late Ming Dynasty history! This can be said to be the first strong man among civil servants, and he is definitely a young official with both civil and military affairs.

It should be noted that the civil servant who can manage the army the most at the end was Lu Xiangsheng. People like Hong Chengchou were not as good as Lu Xiangsheng. If Hong Chengchou was an opportunist, then Lu Xiangsheng belonged to the "powerful faction". When the Ming Dynasty was in turmoil, Lu Xiangsheng relied on his courage and courage to lead the way to defeat various thieves one after another.

In history, Lu Xiangsheng was definitely a firm war pro-stake. When Chongzhen appointed Lu Xiangsheng as Minister of War, he won all the battles against Jiannu. However, he was framed and dismissed from the position of Shangshu.

In the 12th year of Chongzhen, the Qing army entered the pass again to plunder. Chongzhen moved Lu Xiangsheng out and asked him to govern the world's troops. However, Lu Xiangsheng was restricted and could mobilize only 20,000 troops. With Chongzhen's urinary nature, since the governor of the world's troops would go to war. Lu Xiangsheng led 20,000 troops out of the station and was surrounded by the Qing army. The other Ming troops were denied their lives at this time, and Lu Xiangsheng died in a battle.

In summary, talents like Lu Xiangsheng died of political exclusion. And it is likely that Jiannu colluded with Shanxi merchants behind his back and bribed the officials in the court to exclude Lu Xiangsheng.

When a tree stands out in the forest, the wind will destroy it.

Such talents are what Zhu Youxiao needs most at present.

In the late Ming Dynasty, there were actually talents who could use them well and have less political attacks and struggles. The Ming Dynasty was actually killed by its own people, so that those who were capable could not display their talents. When they could perform a little, they would be strangled by the general trend.

It was equivalent to a good hand of cards, and was beaten by Chongzhen. His suspicion, his ignorance and brainlessness could not cope with the situation in the late Ming Dynasty, and even created the situation of the country's demise in the end.

"Your Majesty, let's have a meal first!" Yang Guang suggested in a low voice. Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and stared at the paper intently and said, "Put the mutton soup first, I'll eat it later."

Lu Xiangsheng's first question was answered in a fair manner. He talked about his experiences in Beizhili. He felt that Beizhili, which had a commercial tax, had a much better livelihood than other provinces. Therefore, he agreed to the levy of commercial tax.

What is truly outstanding is the question of foreign wars. Lu Xiangsheng proposed that "the strong and strong are the law of heaven and earth". If the Ming Dynasty expanded outward and invaded a small nation, there was nothing wrong with it. Just like fishermen fishing and hunting, "there is natural killing, and there is no reason to only give birth to not kill."

At the same time, Lu Xiangsheng proposed that hunters and fishermen are all fishing for survival, but if they are not to fill their stomachs, they are indiscriminate acts of killing wild animals and fish, which are harmful to their good deeds.

Finally, Lu Xiangsheng concluded that he could launch expansion from the outside world. Fighting on the battlefield would not damage his good deeds and cause any cause and effect. However, he should not massacre prisoners who have stopped resisting and indigenous people who have surrendered, nor should he rape women. These are behaviors that damage his good deeds.

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao was extremely satisfied. What he feared the most was that once he expanded outward, those civil servants would be stupid in their studies and would go pedantic to reason with the barbarians.

The Chinese principle is something that transcends the law of "the strong and the strong" and is something that people who practice Taoism pursue, but it is completely inapplicable to foreign policies.

When Lu Xiangsheng answered, Zhu Youxiao gave the full mark in his heart, and directly wrote the word "One A" on the paper, and entered the first grade, either the top scorer or the second grade, Tanhua.

Because he discovered Lu Xiangsheng, Zhu Youxiao was in a good mood and put down his brush, and then drank a bowl of mutton soup with great comfort.

To be honest, the historical figures of the late Ming Dynasty that Zhu Youxiao were familiar with were just some of the main ones. For example, Lu Xiangsheng, but he was not very clear about Lu Xiangsheng's life experience, so he didn't know that Lu Xiangsheng was a Jinshi in the year of Renxu. So when he found Lu Xiangsheng running to him at this time, he was as happy as if he had discovered a treasure. At the same time, he was also a little scared. If he had lost the Renxu imperial examination, would Lu Xiangsheng be buried?

However, from the perspective of luck, Zhu Youxiao, the Emperor of Tianqi in the late Ming Dynasty, had a bit of luck in the dragon vein, not as low as Chongzhen. And talents like Lu Xiangsheng came from the Renxu family Jia. From the theory of Feng Shui, they were talents bred by the branches connecting the main dragon vein. These people with luck in the mountains, rivers and earth veins were born with a sense of mission. Talents bred by branches like Lu Xiangsheng will eventually be condensed into the emperors bred by the main vein.

In history, Emperor Tianqi was killed, and the true dragon emperor was finished. The talents born from these branches had not yet been used! When they could be used, they met Chongzhen, who had no luck, and had no backbone, and they all followed suit.

The prosperity of a country usually leads to a large number of talents gathered around a monarch. Whether it is Japan or Germany, their modern rise is a process.

Of course, Feng Shui is a powerful force, and people are also very important. The Nordic dragon vein of Europeans is relatively strong, but the population is too small. The countries of Sweden, that is, the European continent, can show off their might a few times before they developed. Since modern times, they have no ability to compete for the world. Life is more comfortable. In history, no one has returned to invade Sweden and other countries. The Soviet Union fought Finland before World War II. Although it finally won, it was beaten to the fullest by the Finns.

There are no big mountains in India and Africa, and there are no big ocean currents on the seaside. The dragon veins are messy and the national will is extremely weak. Africa was completely divided into colonies by European colonists in modern times. India was a place that anyone could rule in the past in history. After World War II, it felt very awesome. As a result, as soon as the Sino-Indian border war broke out, India was immediately kicked away by China from the altar, and its international status plummeted.

Although China was backward after World War II, the dragon vein was there. In addition, it had a deep enough culture and a large enough population. After decades of development, it caught up with most countries and became the only country in the world that still has the potential to compete with the United States for the world. Others, such as Russia, the industrial system has long been demolished, and European countries and Japan and South Korea are also engaged in industrial division of labor and have no capital to challenge the Americans.

The dragon vein is not the power that dominates everything, but this power does exist objectively. At this time, Zhu Youxiao had survived the initial crisis without any danger after two years of ascending the throne. Although there was still a certain risk of premature death, the situation was much better than the Emperor of the Apocalypse in history. After all, Zhu Youxiao had a large number of troops in his hands and his awareness of defense was unprecedentedly improved.

As long as Zhu Youxiao does not die young, the talents nurtured by the dragon vein branches will gradually gather around him. (To be continued...)
