"What Your Majesty said is that the people have always been diligent. Before the country was weak, it was not the fault of the common people, but the powerful and powerful people, and the poor in the yamen."

Sun Chuanting said something at this time.

When Zhu Youxiao heard Sun Chuanting say this, he laughed: "What a powerful and powerful man, because he is too poor at the yamen!"

"As for the moment, the powerful and powerful are almost restricted. They have fewer opportunities to contact the people directly. Even if they want to oppress the people, they will mostly achieve it through learning inferiority. If they want to make the people rich, the court cannot just provide good policies and reduce the burden on the people. They should strictly control these learning inferiority in the government and continue to exploit the people."

"Among these poor academic studies in the yamen, local clerks and scholars are the most important. Most of the clerks are local tyrants, while scholars are the children of local tyrants, just like the slaves and masters of the people who exploit the people."

Liu Hongxun replied.

"The clerk system must be changed!"

"Officials and officials must be united, giving officials the opportunity to be promoted to high-ranking officials, so that they do not have to only know profits, nor do they have to limit their imperial examinations anymore!"

"Becoming an official requires assessment and education needs. New officials must have requirements for academic qualifications and must undergo examinations. All the officials are recorded in the archives of local officials, counties, prefectures, provinces, and the Ministry of Personnel. All of them have a file of the local officials. The officials will enjoy the honor and honor in the future, but they will also be included in the examination and will be rewarded."

Zhu Youxiao said.

"Your Majesty is wise! Giving officials a way out and using them as a talent for the imperial examination is considered a good strategy. In such a huge empire, most of the orders were eventually sunk into the hands of these officials and rely on them to implement them. The court's government orders are often beneficial to the people or harm the people, not related to the original intention of the court, but how these officials implement the court's government orders."

Liu Hongxun replied at this time.

"It can be said that the entire Ming Dynasty is essentially controlled by these clerks."

Zhu Youxiao replied first and said, "Now there is still a shortage of officials in the local area, and the phenomenon of imperial power not going to the countryside still exists! There was no telegram in the past, and due to inconvenient transportation, it avoided too many officials, which instead increased the oppression of local people. Therefore, the amount of local officials was not rashly increased, thereby ensuring that the imperial decrees were better implemented in the local area. However, there are telegrams, which can instantly convey government orders to local areas, naturally, a deeper administrative system reform can be carried out."

As he said that, Zhu Youxiao got up and walked up, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Your assistant ministers of the Political Affairs Hall, the cabinet ministers and the officials of the various departments and temples, discuss with the court that those official positions should be added to the local government, and what kind of qualities should be set up? In the past, the various rooms in the local government office were no longer just one official office, but an official office, and were led by the dual leaders of the same yamen, superior officials and even the central government office of the court."

"yes!"

Liu Hongxun replied.

"There are too many scholars in the Ming Dynasty, but there are many new documents. In the past, the government offices were indeed no longer satisfied with the desire of scholars to seek official positions, nor could they effectively deal with various local affairs. As far as I know, there are many emerging towns in Jiangnan, Guangdong, Jingjin, Shuzhong, Jingxiang and other places, and there are no corresponding officials to manage them. Some towns, such as Nanxun, Zhujiajiao and other large towns, can be upgraded to counties. Now it is necessary to add official positions."

Zhu Xieyuan replied at this time.

"When it comes to scholars, the harm of learning bad things, that is, the harm of students, has always been a major problem in the local area."

Zhu Youxiao replied at this time.

"It's not all. Even though scholars take charge of lawsuits and join forces to threaten the government, it is not ruled out that scholars are more keen on justice than the people, so they are willing to stand up for the people and resist some unethical and illegal things of corrupt officials."

Lu Xiangsheng put forward his own different views.

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Scholars are knowledgeable people, and public affairs do need their supervision, but they must prevent them from manipulating public opinion and controlling the government in the name of supervising public affairs."

After Zhu Youxiao said that, he looked at Liu Hongxun and other auxiliary ministers, and said seriously: "You are dear friends, you should know that in the temple, the chief assistant Wang Xijue once asked the leader of the Donglin Party, Gu Xiancheng, that the people of the world would oppose the orders of the temple, and Gu Xiancheng replied that the things advocated by the world would also oppose the temple."

"I don't want the court's decrees to be opposed every time the court issues a decree because these scholars manipulate public opinion in the future, and the court's decrees will not be implemented."

"It's good now. The order I issued, whether it is exemption from labor service or agricultural tax, can benefit the people without the cooperation of the people. However, if there is a plague or flood in the future, such as emergency affairs that require the people to cooperate with the government, some scholars who don't use their hearts to do, such as those who have been dissatisfied with the government's policies for a long time, once they bewitch the people and do not cooperate with the government, what can they do? The government can use extraordinary means to them, but can use extraordinary means to the people?"

Zhu Youxiao said this: "I have always been used to being cruel and ruthless. I don't mind doing great evil things for great love and justice! But I believe that my beloved ministers should not want to see me slaughtering thousands of people who make trouble for the sake of saving the people. This is contrary to the kindness of Han compatriots who should treat each other with affection, nor is it conducive to the country being in a state of lenient harmony."

After hearing this, Liu Hongxun and others also started to think carefully.

They were indeed unwilling to see that Zhu Youxiao used the method of killing the enemy in a way that forced innovation and eliminated the bad things like before.

Therefore, at this time, Lu Xiangsheng, who was also considered the Donglin Party in history, resolutely stood up and said, "Your Majesty! It is understandable that scholars speak for the people of the world. The reason why it is unfavorable to the country is because of the formation of gangs, and the formation of gangs is due to competition in the imperial examination!"

"There is no first in literature, but because of the imperial examination, scholars in the world have different levels of literary talent. Those with high literary talent will naturally become party leaders and academic clans, who can control the cultural context of a county, a government, and even a province! In order to seek wealth, scholars in this area need to follow the academic clan, which relies on this control to control the local cultural context and then control the government!"

"As the intention of you, you cannot let the academic sect appear. If you do not let the academic sect appear, you cannot let scholars have different levels of literary talent, such as the top scholar, the second scholar, the second scholar, the third scholar, the Huiyuan, the Jieyuan, and the like. Existence means that the court gave him the highest honor of literary talent, and also gave him the privilege of manipulating the cultural context and political affairs in the place?"

Zhu Youxiao asked.

"Your Majesty is wise! If you don't let the scholars appear, you have to stop the scholars from comparing their literary talent. I also named the three sages of Confucius, Mencius and Xun as the most sages, and I intend not to respect a saint as the king in the world. Moreover, I have been inspired by the behavior of a saint in China. The top scholar and the second prize are actually only useful to the scholars themselves and the scholars, and help them fight each other for their fame and wealth. However, it does not have much significance to the court. The court has never just chosen capable ministers who manage the world and benefit the people!"

Lu Xiangsheng replied.
