Chapter 436: Leave Memorial, Warning From the Three Clans

Zhu Zhanji's Zhuangzi was bigger than Fang's, and Fang Xing couldn't bear to look at those farmers who were clearing up their property, "Do they have any proper arrangements?"

"My little brother has a lot of places to employ people. These are reliable people, and of course they have a place to go."

Zhu Zhanji said frankly that these people are equivalent to his family's children, and he was reluctant to give them to Fang Xing.

"But brother Dehua." Zhu Zhanji said with some puzzlement: "Why do you suddenly think of opening an academy?"

A gleam flashed in Fang Xing's eyes: "Don't forget, how did I get to Taizhou Mansion!"

Zhu Zhanji was silent. At that time, after Fang Xing overthrew Zheng Heng, he attracted some private transactions in Jinling official circles, and then impeachment flooded towards Zhu Di, and in the end Zhu Di could only let him go out temporarily to avoid the limelight.

Fang Dehua must be revenged if he has a grudge!

"I'm not bragging. In terms of comprehensive education, my academy is guaranteed to be second to none in Daming!"

Fang Xing proudly said: "Ten years, maybe not even ten years, you will see a group of students who share similar ideas with us come out!"

"good!"

Zhu Zhanji said excitedly: "Brother Dehua, I really hope that day will come soon!"

After Fang Xing's various influences, Zhu Zhanji felt that the current ideas of many officials were too outdated and their vision was narrow.

Fang Xing rubbed his chin and said playfully, "I hope no one will come to throw shit in the middle of the night!"

When he got home, Fang Xing wrote a letter to ask Xu Fangda to come to Jinling as soon as possible.

"Shuhui, is the money at home enough to build an academy?"

The place was provided by Zhu Zhanji, so of course the construction cost has to be known.

Zhang Shuhui asked casually, "Husband, how big is the academy?"

"Let's come with fifty or sixty people first. The most important thing is to plant some flowers and trees and level the ground for those dormitories, classrooms, and places for cooking."

Zhang Shuhui was a little confused when she heard it, "Husband, I don't know how to make things myself!"

"Then who should I ask?"

In the end, Fang Xing asked Fang Wu and Fang Jielun to go to an experienced craftsman to ask,

The answer that came back as a result startled him.

"Master, at least five thousand taels!"

Fang Jielun handed a piece of paper to Fang Xing. There was a sketch drawn on it, all kinds of buildings were marked, and the cost of each item was also marked on the side.

"How much does it cost to transplant flowers and trees?"

Looking at the numbers above, Fang Xing couldn't help but think of the description of building the Grand View Garden in Dream of the Red Chamber.

"Forget it, you can plant flowers and plants casually."

Fang Xing picked up the pen, and revised the cost drawings in two or three strokes. Finally, looking at the figure of more than two thousand taels, he said with satisfaction: "That's it, ask a few more."

"Hey! What a hassle!"

Fang Xing didn't like trouble, so he simply called Huang Zhong and handed over this mess to him.

"Frugality is the basis. We are not building gardens. Except for the roads, other places are uneven, which is a waste of cultivated land. Buy some seeds and plant them. After a few years, the birds will be singing and the flowers will be fragrant."

Today is the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Xiaobai came back and said that there will be a lantern festival outside the Meridian Gate tonight, even Zhang Shuhui was tempted.

Fang Xing was also a little moved, after all, this was the happiest time of the year.

"Master, there is a mountain of lights!"

After Xiaobai finished speaking, he remembered that Fang Xing was still in confinement, and couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Fang Xing saw that his wives and concubines were trying their best to pretend to be plain, so he boldly said: "Let's wait for the husband's means."

Back in the study, Fang Xing thought about it, then wrote a memorial, and ordered Xin Lao Qi to send it to Zhu Zhanji immediately.

There is also time to relax in prison, but he can only go to the next door to inspect the future academy accompanied by Zhu Zhanji.

This day can't be passed!

By the time the memorial was delivered to Zhu Di, it was already after lunch.

"What is this stick trying to toss?"

Zhu Di took the memorial farther away and looked at it slowly.

"...I heard that there are people who are born to know, but many are like Zhong Yong."

Interesting, Zhu Di continued to read.

"...I will re-open the imperial examinations, with the meaning of flowing water incorruptible..."

The imperial examination was originally an important measure used to break the monopoly of knowledge and official positions by aristocratic families. This model is universal and valid for thousands of years.

"... I take the imperial examinations to recruit scholars, and I will go out to herdsmen when I go down, and I will leave it to the pavilion to edit books and observe politics... Most of the kings who will ascend to high positions in the future, reconcile yin and yang, and assist the emperor are from this generation."

At this time, Daming is still relatively better, and most of the auxiliary ministers are recruited by Zhu Di himself. If they arrive later...

——Non-jinshi do not enter the Imperial Academy!

—— Non-Hanlin will not join the cabinet!

Seeing this, Zhu Di couldn't help nodding his head slightly. In fact, he already had some such thoughts in his mind.

The current auxiliary ministers were all selected by Zhu Di himself, and he even took them to experience the battle.

Instead of saying that these people are geniuses, it would be better to say that Daming is currently in the period of recuperating and recuperating, governing by doing nothing.

"I think that assisting the king should not be someone who lives in the temple and talks about it."

Zhu Di finally saw the smell of gunpowder, but he just stroked his beard and smiled.

The eunuch was a little horrified to find that Zhu Di had shown a mischievous smile just now.

Nima, this is really a hell!

"...This generation is full of hard work and full of words, but people's livelihood is only half-knowledgeable. If such people live in temples, they must be..."

Seeing Zhu Di's serious expression, the eunuch hurriedly waved to Zhu Zhanji outside the door, signaling him to wait before coming in.

"...The minister is bold and risked his death to say: Those who stand in the center should follow the county, government, and chief secretary, and then they can stand on the court for the king to choose."

It took Zhu Di a long time to put down the memorial, and said flatly: "Zhu Zi'an dare to speak loudly!"

Just as he was about to put the memorial into the wooden box, Zhu Di saw two lines of small characters in a daze. He took a closer look at the memorial and almost couldn't maintain his image.

--Love and passion.

——Can you go out and look at the lights?

"Lazy Shuzi!"

Zhu Di smiled, and then ordered: "Let someone spread the word that Xing and Bo will be able to lift the confinement in two days."

The eunuch finally breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately ordered someone to pass on the message.

After Zhu Zhanji heard it, he was finally relieved.

"Zhan Ji, what do you think of the Imperial Academy?"

Zhu Zhanji was stunned, and then said sternly: "Grandfather, grandson thinks that the Imperial Academy is a place to cultivate national talents, but it is not beautiful to build a car behind closed doors, and we should gradually change it."

Zhu Di twitched his cheeks and asked, "How to change it?"

"Bow!"

Zhu Zhanji's tone was sonorous and forceful: "If all the people who come out of the Imperial Academy are people who don't distinguish the five grains and are not diligent, who can I count on for the future of Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Di's face rose sharply, and he was about to scold him, but when he saw Zhu Zhanji's heroic face, he couldn't help waving his hands and said, "That's all, you go."

Zhu Zhanji didn't notice Zhu Di's expression, so he bowed and said goodbye. He was going to take Wanwan to find Fang Xing and watch the lantern together at night.

When the eunuch sent Zhu Zhanji to the door and came back, he saw that Zhu Di's body suddenly felt a little...

"Exactly the same!"

Zhu Di's complexion changed, and the eunuch who was watching shrank his neck.

After a while, Zhu Di took out the memorial in the wooden box, lit it himself, and burned it to ashes. Then he said lightly: "If Zhanji's words are leaked out today, he will die! Execute the three clans!"

The eunuch hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not!"
