Ming Dynasty, Zhengde 8th year, 4th month, 15th day.
The zodiac auspicious day, suitable for travel, suitable for moving earth, suitable for marriage, suitable for burial, suitable for promotion, suitable for seeking wealth, suitable for further studies...
Although it was already early spring, the weather in Beijing was still bone-chilling.
Forbidden City, in front of Taiji Palace.
The scholars entered the palace orderly and saluted the Emperor of Zheng De, Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting on the dragon throne.
"Your Majesty, please greet me!"
"Zhen An! "Please don't stand on ceremony." Emperor Zheng De was a little impatient and waved his hand casually.
"Bang!" Suddenly, someone in the crowd fell.
"Drag him out!" A eunuch beside the Emperor's face changed.
The young eunuchs immediately dragged the fainted High Scholar out of the hall.
At this moment, the fainted High Scholar immediately woke up.
"Eh? What are you doing?"
"Zhou Xian, how dare you. In Taiji Palace, in front of the Sage Emperor, it is actually so noisy? Aren't you afraid that I'll take away your position?"
The eunuch next to the Emperor berated. There was no feminine tone, but instead, there was the masculinity of a child.
At this moment, Zhou Xian stood blankly on the spot. He then burst out,"F * ck, I transmigrated!"
"How dare you spout nonsense! Drag him out!”
"Emperor, please forgive me. Brother Zhou was just happy for the first time and couldn't control himself.”
Among the scholars, a handsome man dressed in a white robe and with long foam hair began to plead for Zhou Xian.
As he said that, he continuously gave Zhou Xian a look.
"That's right, this lowly official's admiration for Your Majesty is like a surging river that never ends.
It was like the Yellow River bursting its banks and flooding out of control.
Today, I was lucky enough to see His Majesty's dragon face. I was so excited that I couldn't control myself and fainted.
So much so that he babbled,
Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Zhou Xian sobered up and immediately climbed along the pole, madly flattering without caring about his life.
"quibble!" The eunuch beside the Emperor berated,
"Forget it!" Emperor Zheng De waved his hand happily.
"Your Majesty, this…"
"Zhen said forget it, let the court examinations begin.”
As she spoke, she even gave Zhou Xian an encouraging look. She was very mischievous and did not have the slightest bit of dignity of an Emperor.
"Good!"
"The court examinations have begun. If another High Scholar speaks nonsense and disrupt the court examinations, I will not let him off lightly!”
This eunuch had a very unique personality. As he spoke, he even pinched his fingers.
The transmigrator Zhou Xian suppressed the astonishment in his heart. He tried hard to accept the memories of the original owner in his mind, but they were all scattered.
He only knew that this year was the eighth year of the Ming Dynasty. The original owner was also called Zhou Xian. He was only 23 years old and was actually a juren.
A few days ago, he had passed the general exams. Today, he had just participated in the court examinations.
He was so excited that he fainted, which gave him an opportunity.
In the eighth year of Zhengde, he passed the palace examination and became a scholar.
What was a Jinshi?
Jinshi, is the son of heaven's disciple,
Only after passing the highest level of the imperial examination did he get the first place in the imperial examination.
It was a person who had passed the central examination in the ancient Chinese imperial examination system.
It was also called the Gongshi examination. The people who participated were all from various places, so the gold content was the highest.
The top three, the top scholar, the top scholar, and the top scholar, naturally need not be said.
Those who passed the examination were directly selected by the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The lowest was the seventh grade.
However, the winner of life was always at the beginning. Even if he failed the court examinations,
At the very least, he was born in the same imperial examination.
A winner in life,
When he went out, chariots and horses followed him, and when he went in, there were groups of maids.
The family must have a thousand acres of fertile land, mansions everywhere,
Work harder, form cliques for personal gain, no, rack your brains to fight
Decades later, he was the head of the cabinet and held the highest position.
With great power in his hands, he was below one person and above ten thousand people.
It wasn't impossible!
This opening, two kings with four twos!
Zhou Xian felt that this was a sure thing. Relying on his experience that was several hundred years ahead of him,
Wouldn't it be a piece of cake to dominate the Ming Dynasty?
Moreover, Emperor Zheng De Zhu Houzhao,
He was quite familiar with it.
This guy was a weirdo emperor. He was really fun.
"History books comment that Wuzong was greedy for wine, lecherous, and advocated war."
What he did seemed to be absurd and unreasonable, and was criticized by the world.
At the same time, Wu Zong was resolute and decisive.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Jin was killed, King Anhua was pacified, King Ning rebelled, and Yingzhou defeated the little prince.
He was proficient in Buddhism, knew Sanskrit, and was even able to treat the wise and corporal politely. He personally visited the minister's home.
He was even infatuated with geisha and had a strong personality.
However, he was very peaceful, unlike an emperor.
For such a grand and playful emperor,
If you cater to his preferences, you can rise straight to the top!
Look at this question again. How can we strengthen our country?
It was simple. The imperial court was rich, the people were rich, and the combat strength of the army was off the charts. It was a strong country.
Money was the prerequisite.
Money is the root of all evil,
It was also the foundation of the world!
It can solve almost all troubles,
If you didn't, it meant that you didn't have enough money, or you didn't spend it in the right way.
If not, then it was the legendary true love.
Or between life and death!
How to strengthen the country?
A strong country depends on a rich country,
Rich countries are mostly simple. They collect taxes from merchants, lift the ban on the sea, and weaken Buddhism.
The business tax must be collected. This was the most important thing.
Thinking back to the Southern Song Dynasty, which relied on business taxes to survive for more than 100 years,
Every time, he would pay tribute, pay tribute, and become a minister.
Until they were destroyed by the Mongols.
One had to know that the business of the Song Dynasty was the number one in the world at that time.
Money houses and banknotes were invented in the Song Dynasty.
If this money was used to properly develop the army and reform the system,
There was no such thing as Mongolia.
During the Great Han Dynasty, one Han took on five riders. Do you think that's a joke?
Then the ban on the sea was lifted.
The sea was full of water!
Water was the source of life.
The treasures in the sea were endless.
There was also maritime trade, using silk, porcelain, and tea.
How good would it be to exchange for all kinds of rare treasures!
Learn more about the Silk Road on the Sea.
Finally, it was the weak Buddhist Sect.
As the saying goes,
Daoism descended the mountain to save the world in troubled times, and cultivated one's morality in prosperous times.
Buddhism, in troubled times, sealed the mountains to avoid the world, and in prosperous times, opened the mountains to welcome wealth.
Throughout the ages, Buddhist monks in ancient times, apart from eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddha, worked in the morning and evening.
Carry out the so-called promotion of Buddhism and salvation of all living beings.
The real contribution to the people was still relatively small.
Most importantly, monks in ancient times did not pay taxes.
Not only did they not have to pay taxes, but they also did not have to serve in the military.
Monks did not engage in production, and their basic source of income was offerings from devotees.
This would result in an invisible loss of income.
If everyone fasted and prayed,
Can't we live this life?
Therefore, it was still necessary to weaken the Buddhist Sect.
The rich countries were settled, but to be strong, one had to have hard power.
An iron-blooded army that could come at any call, fight, and win.
It is the absolute embodiment of a powerful country.
Training new soldiers, heavy firearms, changing land,
The new army's new attitude, strengthen the education of the patriotic and loyal thoughts,
Firearms, everything in the future,
The era of cold weapons had quietly passed away.
At this time, Da Ming's firearms had already begun to lag behind the West.
He had to seize this opportunity.
As for land reform,
Take it slow. First, nationalize the land. Private people can't buy or sell it.
Without the big landowners, there wouldn't be so many poor people.
Unknowingly, the number of rebellions decreased.
Zhou Xian's pen fell to startle the wind and rain, and the policy was completed to weep for ghosts and gods.
He wrote quickly,
Relying on the memories of the original owner,
He is bold and vigorous, pointing to the mountains and rivers, and stimulating the words.
After he finished writing, he blew on it in satisfaction and looked at the beautiful and clean Xuan paper.
Looking at those picturesque words,
He couldn't help but sigh. A High Scholar was a High Scholar.
The original owner's calligraphy.
One word, absolute!
And for this court examination,
One word, stable!
He was definitely qualified to be the top scorer!
If it wasn't inappropriate,
He really wanted to shout, Who else?”
