This poem, whose name is unknown, has been circulating in various circles in the capital since the afternoon.
In the evening, this poem was already placed on the desk of Emperor Jinghe¡¯s imperial study room.
Just after reading the first sentence, Emperor Jinghe couldn't take his eyes off it.
After reading it for a long time, Emperor Jinghe sighed: "I have such a unicorn in my family. It is really a blessing from my ancestors!"
At this time, there were two close and important ministers beside Emperor Jinghe, who were shocked when they heard this.
They thought they were talking about His Highness the Crown Prince.
As a result, when Emperor Jing He handed the silk paper to the two of them, they realized that it was not the case.
Because the first line of this poem reads, "On the ninth day of the sixth lunar month in the 30th year of Jinghe, Liu Mingqi, the crown prince of Prince Yu, composed it in the Burial Flower Tower."
Prince Yu¡¯s crown prince Liu Mingqi was very popular during this period. The two important ministers naturally knew about him, but they didn¡¯t know that Liu Mingqi could actually compose poetry.
After reading it, the eyes of the two important ministers immediately froze, and they could not leave the paper for a long time.
I don¡¯t know how long it took before a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance and a black beard clapped his hands and said, ¡°It¡¯s really worth seeing such a fairy poem in this life!¡±
The other man has gray hair and wrinkles on his face, but his overall temperament is as straight as a pine or cypress.
He also agreed with his colleagues, "Your Majesty, can you consider making an exception and allowing Prince Yu to enter our Hanlin Academy? I believe that his talent and wisdom inspired by the gods' favor will definitely inspire our younger generation of Jinshi. This creates a good atmosphere of chasing each other.¡±
"Mohe, you are too pushy." Emperor Jinghe smiled slightly, "I can't change the ancestral system, and I can't open this hole."
¡°Oh, that¡¯s such a waste!¡± The man shook his head.
The middle-aged man with a black beard retorted, "Brother Mohe, in fact, there is nothing wasteful. If he doesn't enter the Hanlin Academy, wouldn't Prince Yu be able to contribute his talents? How did we get the uppercase and lowercase numbers and double-entry accounting method?" Here? How did soap appear?"
Emperor Jinghe burst into laughter upon hearing this, "Yes! Qinggu is right. As long as I am here, all Mingqi's inventions will shine for our great prosperity Including the cakes and ice cream you just ate. milk tea."
Speaking of this, the two important ministers blushed a little. It was obvious that it was their first time to eat and drink such delicious food, and their appearance was not very elegant.
The middle-aged man with a black beard is named Zhong Chang, whose courtesy name is Qinggu. He is forty-nine years old this year. At the age of eighteen, he became the top candidate in the palace examination a year before Emperor Jinghe succeeded to the throne. After decades, he has become He stood in the position of deputy prime minister of the second rank, and received the position of minister of bodyguards. He was also a bachelor of Wuying Palace.
Zhong Chang is the emperor¡¯s absolute confidant and holds great power. He is also known as the most popular candidate to become the next prime minister.
However, he is also the busiest among the four current prime ministers and deputy prime ministers, because his job is to coordinate the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Rites. The tasks are unimaginably complicated, and he is busy for at least five hours a day on average. And it has persisted for more than ten years.
People inside and outside the court are saying that if Zhong Chang can survive this test and completely satisfy the emperor, then within three to five years, he will definitely take over as prime minister and become the number one person in the court under one person and above ten thousand people.
Another man with gray hair and wrinkles is called Feng Yuqiang, also known as Mohe. He is actually two years younger than Zhong Chang.
Feng Yuqiang is a second-grade bachelor of the Hanlin Academy and a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion. He is also the boss of the Hanlin Academy. He is decisive in killing and is a very important think tank for the emperor.
The Hanlin Academy is not just a place to raise "prime ministers". The emperor gives lectures, reads to the princes, compiles books, translates documents, and presides over the imperial examinations. These are all their jobs.
Needless to say, giving lectures to the emperor is a job of being a holy teacher. The status of a teacher is extremely noble and no one but a highly virtuous and respected scholar can take on the role.
It is not easy to serve as a chamberlain to a prince. For example, Zhang Juzheng was a concubine in the Hanlin Academy. He was unable to get ahead, so he got an opportunity to serve as a chamberlain to Prince Yu, who died after the death of Emperor Jiajing. The only son who was still alive before, and later Ming Muzong.
Relying on this relationship, Zhang Juzheng was able to become the chief minister and control all the political affairs in the first ten years of Wanli.
It would be even more powerful to preside over the imperial examination. It was completely the dream of the adults of the whole dynasty.
It is a huge capital to host an imperial examination alone.
Because all the admitted students of the class you preside over will becomeThe problem of creation is definitely not a day or two, it was even the case in several previous dynasties.
But no dynasty has completely solved this problem.
Usually it¡¯s like cutting leeks, new ones will grow after cutting.
The same was true for the Dakang Dynasty, but because it had only been established for eighty years, the contradictions were not so prominent.
Moreover, the current Governor of Water Transport Lin Zhenyuan, Minister of Salt Affairs Bai Hengwang, Jiangning Zhizao Su Maohui, and Suzhou Zhizao Shi Songye have all been confidants of Emperor Jinghe for many years. He believes that these people have also done their best.
"Compared to Feng Yuqiang, Zhong Chang, who has been traveling around for many years, is more pragmatic.
"Your Majesty, I thought it would be enough to let them each contribute some money." Zhong Chang said, "If you want to provide disaster relief, it is better to rely on the granaries in the fertile land of Jiangnan to raise food and various materials.
Liu Renhuai, the current governor of Jiangnan, has a resolute and upright character. He is a capable minister and general in governing the local area. Only by letting him be the general coordinator can the problem be solved as quickly as possible. "
Liu Renhuai, who won the first prize in Jing and Enke at the age of fifteen, was the emperor's first disciple. His ability to be the most fertile governor of Jiangnan among the six governors also reflects his ability.
The two lakes are originally large grain producers, but their annual output must be supplied to the three northwest provinces and one Guangxi. No matter how much grain they produce, they are not enough, and there is not much left over every year. Therefore, their ability to resist disasters is very weak.
In addition, in the past five years, the two lake basins have been hit by disasters one after another, and the remaining grain reserves have been exhausted.
This is different from Jiangnan. Jiangnan has not suffered disasters in recent years. It has been smooth sailing and has continuously supplied Fujian and Guangdong provinces. There is no pressure on them at all and there is still a lot of grain in stock.
Zhong Chang mentioned Liu Renhuai, and Emperor Jinghe had a smile on his face, "Young people are loyal and dedicated, taxes in the Jiangnan area are increasing every year, and people live and work in peace and contentment. He is indeed a good candidate to solve the problem."
"Then let the water transport, salt management and weaving industries each provide 500,000 taels of silver, and deliver them immediately to the Jiangnan Governor's Office, and Jiangnan Governor Liu Renhuai will provide another 1 million taels of silver, for a total of 2.5 million taels to purchase various supplies, plus Open warehouses to store grain and transport it to the disaster areas together by water transport." Feng Yuqiang suggested.
"If they pay 500,000 taels, will it be too heavy a burden? Besides, droughts, floods, typhoons, and Mohe have caused them to bleed a few times in the past few years." Emperor Jinghe hesitated.
"With their ability to make money, this is not a problem at all. Are they the two yamen who can only eat meat, and can't we let them contribute a little bit?" Feng Yuqiang snorted coldly.
Zhong Chang next to him also nodded repeatedly.
The water in these yamen is extremely deep. Ordering them to continuously pay extra money can be regarded as a constant beating on them.
In fact, according to his understanding, it would be no problem to ask several yamen to each give out 500,000 taels of silver.
Seeing that both of them had such an opinion, Emperor Jing He thought about it and could only agree.
On the one hand, there are several important yamen, and on the other hand, there are hundreds of thousands of victims. Of course, he will tend to the side with the larger number.
Feng Yuqiang then suggested: "Liu Shaoling cannot leave the south of the Yangtze River, and disaster relief cannot rely entirely on local people. Longtengwei General Tang Hui is loyal, patriotic, fair and honest. I recommend him to be responsible for food distribution and reconstruction supervision in the disaster area. He will definitely suppress it." There are many unscrupulous officials living there.¡±
"Can."
Emperor Jinghe readily agreed.

Note: Yunmengze was very large in ancient times. It was about the same location as Hong Lake and Dongting Lake today, and several times larger than the sum of these two lakes. It is also called Yunmengze after the Dakang Dynasty.
In the ancestral system of the Dakang Dynasty, the governor of water transport was from the second rank, and the governor's office was located in Huai'an; the minister of salt administration was from the second rank, and the salt administration office was located in Yangzhou. These two places were also the most prosperous places in the south of the Yangtze River.
In the previous dynasty, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau had too much power, which led to serious corruption. Therefore, it was divided into Jiangning Weaving and Suzhou Weaving. They were divided and ruled to supervise and compete with each other. Their chief officials, the Weaving Ministers, were all of the third grade.
In addition, teachers and disciples are not all like father and son. For example, Zhang Juzheng was impeached by his disciples during his reform, and more than one of them was impeached. It made him smile bitterly. In the two hundred years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, I was the first person to be impeached by my disciples. It was extremely humiliating!
