The capital of the Ming Dynasty.
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers~"
"The kings of Ning and Shu established the Ning Kingdom and the Shu Kingdom in overseas Tianzhu. The Emperor of Heaven has officially ennobled the Ning Kingdom and the Shu Kingdom and recognized the status of the two countries as vassal states."
"Ning Guo first seeks talents from the Ming Dynasty. As long as they are willing to immigrate to Ning Guo, each person can get two days and one hundred acres and five slaves. Anyone who is literate can serve as an official in Ning Guo."
With the shouts of the newsboys, the whole capital began to become lively and lively.
King Ning and King Shu established their countries overseas. The establishment of Ning and Shu marked the arrival of a new era.
Suddenly, all the young and old men in the capital began to discuss this matter.
"Chen Xiucai, have you seen the newspaper?"
"Prince Ning is looking for talented people. Anyone who can read and write can go to Ningguo to be an official. You are also a scholar. If you go to Ningguo, you will have to be a county magistrate. Maybe you can also be a magistrate or something."
Someone looked at the newspaper and said to a scholar next to him.
"Ningguo is located in a barbarian land overseas. They are all uncivilized barbarians. Even if I are asked to be the chief minister of Ningguo's cabinet, I will not go."
The young Chen Xiucai shook his head slightly and said, What are the officials in Ningguo good to do? There are not many people, and they are overseas in a barbarian land. It is not interesting to be an official in such a place.
He's not going.
"Chen Xiucai, you have been taking exams all your life. You might as well go to Ningguo now. You are still an official. It is said that Li Shishi, the chief minister of Ningguo's cabinet, used to be a down-and-out scholar. Now he is the chief minister of Ningguo's cabinet. .¡±
Someone looked at the gray-haired Chen Xiucai and said.
"Can Ning Guo's cabinet chief minister be compared with our Ming Dynasty's?"
"Didn't you see it written in the newspaper? Prince Ning has granted many titles to ministers who have made meritorious deeds. There are several princes and a lot of marquises in this country. From now on, the titles will be ruined."
"The King of Ning will build the Kingdom of Ning and grant a group of titles, the King of Shu will build the Kingdom of Shu and grant another number of titles, and the King of Chu will build the Kingdom of Chu and grant another number of titles. When the time comes, a person can get a title even if he goes overseas."
Chen Xiucai said disdainfully that the titles of the Ming Dynasty were more valuable, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty were the most attractive. As for overseas officials, titles, etc., how could they compare with those of the Ming Dynasty.
"Chen Xiucai, if you don't want to go, someone else will. I heard that your good friend Wang Xiucai has already gone to Tianjin and is planning to take a boat to Tianzhu to become an official in Ningguo."
"If you go now, you can still get an official position at least. I'm just illiterate, otherwise I would go. After all, I would still be an official. It's better than being a commoner all my life."
"That's right, that's right."
""
In the imperial palace of the capital, the Qianqing Palace, in the study of Emperor Hongzhi, the ministers were anxiously brought over by Emperor Hongzhi to discuss state affairs.
"Your Majesty, there may not be any harm in the establishment of a vassal state overseas by King Ning and King Shu now, but as time goes by, when the vassal state becomes stronger, it will inevitably compete with our Ming Dynasty. A hundred years later, maybe it will compete with us. Ming poses a threat."
"I believe that vassal kings must never be allowed to establish vassal states overseas. Otherwise, in the future, many vassal states will rise together, posing a huge threat to our Ming Dynasty."
Wang Kuo, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, is very old. His beard and hair are already white, but his voice is very loud and full of energy when he speaks.
He is one of the ministers who firmly opposes the vassal king going overseas to establish a vassal state, because he is absolutely sure that the vassal state of the vassal king will threaten the interests of the Ming Dynasty in the future.
"Your Majesty, your words are wrong~"
"The establishment of overseas vassal states will not only not harm the interests of our Ming Dynasty, but will consolidate our rule and interests overseas. At the same time, it will also allow our descendants of Yan and Huang to spread overseas."
Xie Qian stood up to express his opposition. Emperor Hongzhi has officially recognized and canonized the matter. Are you tired of still fooling around here?
"Yes, the vassal king going to sea to establish a vassal state will only be good for our Ming Dynasty, and there will be no harm."
"This year alone, there are twelve vassal kings including King Ning, King Shu, King Chu, and King Zheng going to sea. The expenses incurred by these twelve vassal kings alone are a huge amount."
"And when a vassal king goes to sea to establish a vassal state, they need to buy ships, weapons and equipment, and at the same time, they also need to carry a large number of people overseas."
¡°These have greatly eased the pressure on our country, the Ministry of Household Affairs has been able to save a lot of money, and this money is enough to build another road.There were too many, and every aspect had to be considered thoroughly. Emperor Hongzhi was also troubled by this.
"Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, you are the chief examiners for this imperial examination~"
Emperor Hongzhi looked at the ministers present and directly named Liu Jian and Li Dongyang as the chief examiners, which showed how much he attached importance to this imperial examination.
You must know that in the imperial examinations held once every three years in the past, it was usually enough to select a few Liubu ministers or Liubu ministers to serve as examiners. This time, Emperor Hongzhi had two cabinet ministers serve as examiners. The standards were extremely high.
"I obey the decree!"
When the two of them heard this, they quickly stood up and replied respectfully.
"This time, the number of people admitted to the imperial examination should increase. Our Ming Dynasty's territory is getting wider and wider, and more and more officials and talents are needed. This time, the number of people admitted to the imperial examination has increased to 500." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
