Wanli hadn't been to the minister's house much.

As an orthodox otaku, he rarely even has the opportunity to leave the house, first, because he is too lazy to go, and secondly, he has no chance to go.

Usually it is to go out of the palace to worship heaven and earth, and then it is because I snatched a suite from my grandfather two years ago, so that I have a second suite in Beijing, so I occasionally go out of the Forbidden City to play in Tsinghua Garden.

In fact, if you want to say it, Wanli let his tool people go to other people's homes several times, the first time was to go to the mansion of Chen Mu, the commander of Nanyangwei, and later, according to the tool man, the mansion is really not bad, and it is definitely not related to luxury, but there are a lot of novelties, and then he simply sent the tool man to move things to his own home.

When the emperor is a few years older, he also thinks that this kind of behavior is not good, so Chen Mu is not as knowledgeable as him, otherwise what if he changes someone and jumps back in anger?

Later, he only sent tool people to other people's houses to take a look, and if there were any good things, he would bring them back, and not empty them all.

General Qi's knife and General Ma's armor all came from this way.

But in fact, the minister's house that he went to in person, just once, was the first to open the Jinghai Mansion, just last year, he rewarded the little sea dragon with his childhood toy Huo De Xingjun, and they took this thing to pile up a snow lion in front of the Jinghai Mansion in Donghua Gate, and let him see it.

At that time, this invitation made Wanli struggle in the Qianqing Palace for a long time: I am the emperor, you little sea dragon build a snow lion and let me go to see me, then I am very faceless?

Later, he went anyway, after all...... I really want to see it.

Oh, chicken break, where is the emperor's reserve!

At the beginning, he looked on the street outside the mansion, after all, there were female dependents up and down in Jinghaibo's mansion, and the two of them were brought by Hailong and Haihu, and it was not good for him to go in, everyone was talking on the street, and then Wanli wanted to go in to see if there were any novelties in the mansion, anyway, everyone in the mansion was on the street, so he went in and walked around.

To be honest, it's quite disappointing, there are no good things in the mansion, Chen Mu is not at home, there is not even a gun or cannon in the house, and the family is also in accordance with Master Chen's ancestral teachings, not allowing the cellar silver, so that the money is spent, but there is a stable and granary in the house that is quite large, and there are eighteen war horses from all over the world in the stable, both Oriental and Western; The granary was built especially large, storing 10,000 stones of grain.

Wanli pinched his fingers and counted the fortunes of Chen Mu's family, and then pointed to the food and clothing of twenty-seven people, eighteen horses, six dogs, and three cats in the mansion, thinking that this Chen Mansion had to build a big granary.

Jinghai Bo Shilu, Beiyang Minister, Oriental Minister, Zuo Du Governor's Yulu, plus the two Lady of the Decree, each salary here can support seventy or eighty people a year.

What disappointed Wanli was that this Jinghaibo Mansion didn't look like Chen Mu's usual sense of newism, but it was very good, it was all in line with the rules, but it didn't have the feeling of a new era.

What can make Wanli's eyes shine is that the poor one put a set of rag-faced iron armor and waist knife, and the iron leaves are about to rot, saying that it is the ancestral armor and treasure knife of Old Man Chen.

When he went out, Wan Li Ye put the treasure knife on the treasure armor and rolled it, sandwiched it between the ribs, and walked away.

The eldest lady and the second lady didn't dare to say anything when they saw this outside the mansion, so Chen Hailong was unscrupulous and pulled Wanli to not let him go.

He said, look, your father's armor and iron leaves are going to rot, and the knife is not sharpened, so you have to get it back and repair it, or it won't be presentable.

Anyway, it's been almost half a year, and Jinghai Bofu didn't see the emperor have any intention of returning the repaired armor and treasure knife. Peerless Tang Gate fo

Zhang Juzheng's mansion has a lot of novelty, electric lights are used, steam engines are also used in the house, the boiler is burning all over the house, the rockery in the yard is strange, the house is full of gold and jade artifacts, calligraphy, painting and antiques, and the popularity is much stronger.

"Teacher, this Xiyi horse was given by Jing Haibo? I also have a few horses at home. Wanli said and smiled secretly in his heart, his horse looks better than the one in Zhang Juzheng's house: "Then who gave this one, I can't recognize it." ”

"Back to Your Majesty, this is sent by General Li of Liaodong, he is fighting in the border area, if the things sent are not accepted, then he will have doubts in his heart."

Wanli shook his head, not because Zhang Juzheng accepted bribes, but because he realized that Li Chengliang had never sent him anything...... Excessively!

"Your Majesty came here this time, but what's the matter?"

Zhang Juzheng didn't think that Wanli's silent visit was just to see these things in his home, and Wanli also said as if he had just reacted: "The students came here this time to ask the teacher what suggestions they have for reform, such as the reform of the imperial examination." ”

Reform.

Imperial Examination Reform.

Contrary to Wanli's expectations, Zhang Juzheng didn't sound optimistic about it, but he asked rhetorically while walking towards the study with the emperor: "Your Majesty must have a plan in mind when he proposed this matter, why do you want to reform the imperial examination, and where is the reform?" ”

"The students integrate the township school and social science into the official school, teach the students new textbooks, and when they graduate, they will become the new blood of the empire, and I want to use the imperial examination to absorb them, but the current imperial examination ...... Something that has no novelty in the eight-strand text, more strategies? ”

Seeing that he walked into the study, Zhang Juzheng instructed You Qi to get some sweets, and he knew that the emperor liked sweets.

Entering the study, Zhang Juzheng first invited Wanli to sit down on the main seat he usually sits, and then sat on the chair on the side, and said: "Your Majesty is talented and intelligent, and has touched the trick, the imperial examination is to select talents from all over the world to absorb it, but the Bagu Wen cannot be changed, unless Your Majesty can find something more suitable than it." ”

"The minister has read the primary school textbooks, but he doesn't know what the students will be like when they finish their studies, and before that, they can't talk about it."

"Why is that?"

In Wanli's eyes, Baguwen is indeed a useless thing, and there is no novelty in the rigid dogma.

"How does Your Majesty feel the difference between the civil and military officials' handbooks when they approve them? Qi Shuai, who is better than the scribes, and Chen Shuai, who has passed the martial arts examination, are not counted, they will all have eight shares, and the minister is talking about other military attachés, can Your Majesty feel the difference? ”

Wanli was suddenly a little embarrassed for some reason, he was still very afraid of Zhang Juzheng in his heart, and said cautiously: "The civil official recital is clearly organized, there is a line to break the topic, what does the whole article mean Just read this sentence, and throw it aside if you are not interested?" ”

Zhang Juzheng stroked his beard and smiled: "Your Majesty is right, the minister also feels this way, the hands of the military attachés are different, they talk about this in the first paragraph, and the next paragraph is about that matter, and they have to read the whole article word for word when they review their handbooks, which is extremely time-consuming, and this is the use of eight shares." ”

"But other than that, the eight strands are useless, teacher."

Zhang Juzheng's eyes were determined: "Your Majesty, what the court wants is that it is useless." ”
