Jia Jichun's suggestion to Emperor Chongzhen this time was not the instruction of Emperor Chongzhen, but completely the result of his own speculation based on Emperor Chongzhen's true attitude towards the Donglin Party people that he had speculated before.

Emperor Chongzhen himself did not have the idea of deposing the Korean scholars of the Chinese style.

On the contrary, now he is trying to incorporate some leading figures and outstanding talents in the Korean Shilin into the bureaucratic system of the Ming Dynasty through the imperial examination system of the Ming Dynasty, and then cultivate a group of loyal agents for the Ming Dynasty in Korea.

Emperor Chongzhen never resorted to verbal words, let alone said it publicly.

However, at present, Zhang Pu and others are lecturing in North Korea, and recommending outstanding people in the Korean Shilin to participate in the examination in the capital of the Ming Dynasty as a son, but it coincides with the intention of Emperor Chongzhen.

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen did not expect that the Confucian attainments of the scholars in North Korea, especially the attainments of Cheng Zhu's science, were so high that they would be able to pass the Huiyuan exam without deliberately taking care of them.

However, when he thought clearly about the stakes involved in the result of Song Shilie's victory in Zhonghuiyuan, he could only be secretly happy in his heart.

Although Huiyuan is noble and respectful, it is not always given to anyone?

gave this Song Shilie from North Korea, but it was able to make the results of this examination in the four years of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty quickly have an impact within the subject country of Korea, and at the same time, it could also make the imperial examination system of the Ming Dynasty really gain a firm foothold in North Korea and further popularize it.

One day in the future, when the Confucian scholars of the Korean Kingdom are proud to participate in the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty and are proud of their fame in the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty, it will not be far from the fact that the Korean State is completely annexed to the counties of the Ming Dynasty.

Such a way of digesting North Korea, compared with the way of war, although it takes a little longer to waste, but the effect will be much better, and it also saves money and effort, which can be regarded as the best policy of Emperor Chongzhen in dealing with the North Korean problem.

Because of this, after listening to Jia Jichun's suggestion at this time, Emperor Chongzhen had some dislike in his heart, and after listening to He Ruzhong's statement again, he simply put down the list in his hand and said to the three people in front of him:

"I look at this list, it's already very good! There is no need to dethrone anyone, nor do you need to add anybody!

"After I have seen it today, I can hand it over to the other cabinet elders to take a look at together, if there are no objections from the cabinet elders, it will be announced to the world tomorrow morning!

"After that, the secretary and others can arrange matters related to the re-examination and the palace examination as soon as possible according to the original plan!"

Speaking of this, Emperor Chongzhen looked at Jia Jichun expressionlessly for a moment, and then said slowly: "I might as well say it again here today, North Korea is a subject country of my Ming Dynasty, and its Confucian scholars are also subjects of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Including North Korea, all foreign vassal countries and vassals, who can be loyal to their ministers and filial sons, bow down to their ministers, and serve me as a minister, regardless of whether they are inside or outside the territory, I have always regarded them as one!"

Emperor Chongzhen stared at Jia Jichun expressionlessly and said these insincere words, then looked at Xu Guangqi and He Ruzhong's faces one by one, and finally said:

"At the time of last year, since the imperial court agreed to allow the Korean scholars to participate in the examination of my Ming Dynasty, then no matter what kind of examination results the Korean scholars achieve this time or in the future, my Ming Dynasty government and the opposition should accept it calmly!

"This is the bearing of the kingdom that all my emperors and ministers should have! If you don't have this mind and bearing, how can my emperor be worthy of the reputation of the Chinese Celestial Empire!? ”

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen say this, Xu Guangqi, He Ruzhong, Jia Jichun and others had a little mixed feelings in their hearts.

Did Emperor Chongzhen really regard North Korea as one? Of course not.

Emperor Chongzhen has always turned a blind eye to the various actions of the General Military Office under the command of Mao Wenlong, Marquis of Anton, against the Korean State in the past and now.

In particular, in the past two years or so, Pyongyang's Bo Liu Xingzuo and his brothers have not been satisfied with the land on both sides of the Datong River on the line between Pyongyang and Wonsan, and have continued to cross the border and move south.

Again and again, in the neighboring northern Hwanghae Province and the northern part of Gangwon Province, they drove out the Korean people, forcibly occupied the land of the Koreans, and even killed and seized the land.

These behaviors of Pyongyang Bo Liu Xingzuo and his subordinates were repeatedly impeached by Zhang Pu, and the monarchs and ministers of the Joseon State also repeatedly asked the Ming Dynasty to punish and restrain the cross-border occupation of Pyongyang's Bofu through Li Li, the Great Monarch of Ayahara, who was detained in the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Chongzhen knew about these things, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also knew a little about them, but Emperor Chongzhen did not even give a will to reprimand the behavior of Mao Wenlong, Marquis of Anton, Liu Xingzuo, Bo Liu Xingzuo of Pyongyang, and others.

What kind of person is this?

At this time, in the Qianqing Palace, whether it was the ministers who played the right role in person, or the ministers who surrounded the inside and outside, after listening to the high-sounding words of Emperor Chongzhen, they naturally had their own understandings and ideas.

However, as soon as Emperor Chongzhen's words fell, the imperial study room of the East Warm Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace suddenly became silent.

Xu Guangqi and He Ruzhong listened to Emperor Chongzhen's words, and they immediately felt at ease.

When Jia Jichun heard this, he lowered his head deeply, knowing that he had misunderstood the emperor's mind again, so he didn't dare to say a word again.

In the list of tributes this time, in addition to these scholars from North Korea who are related to the Fulin Academy run by Zhang Pu and others, some scholars from Nanzhili are also related to Zhang Pu's Fulin Academy.

Among them, several people are precisely the people who agreed to Zhang Pu's invitation to go to North Korea and prepare for the Fulin Academy with Zhang Pu and give lectures, such as Chen Yutai, Sun Chun, Li Wen, Xu Fuyuan, and Zhang Pu's younger brother Zhang Cai.

There are also some people, although they did not go to Fulin Academy, but they are inextricably linked with Zhang Pu and others, such as Chen Zilong, Chen Mingxia and other rising stars of Nanzhili Shilin.

These people were the backbone of the Fushe in the original history, and now although there is no Fushe as a small Donglin party organization, the scholars scattered all over the south of the Yangtze River or in all corners are still stubbornly rising.

Emperor Chongzhen naturally didn't want to hire these people.

It's just that before the imperial examination system of the Ming Dynasty was officially reformed, the traditional imperial examination could not stop these people.

Because in the entire Ming Dynasty, the Jiangnan region was the most economically developed place in the Ming Dynasty, the place with the most scholars, and the place with the highest level of traditional Confucian education.

As long as the imperial examination system is not changed, the children of Jiangnan Shilin will definitely enter the bureaucratic system of the Ming Dynasty through this way, and then enter the court of the Ming Dynasty in a steady stream.

Of course, in addition to these celebrities in the late Ming Dynasty who made Emperor Chongzhen feel complicated after seeing their names, there were also some people in the late Ming Dynasty who knew the names of Emperor Chongzhen and knew some of their deeds.

For example, Zuo Maodi, Fan Zhiwan, Yang Tinglin, Zhang Jinyan, Yang E, Yang Shenwu and others.

In the original history, these people were admitted to the Gongshi in the spring of Chongzhen's four years, and after the palace examination, they entered the second and third lists, and became Chongzhen's four-year jinshi.

In this life, although the situation of the Ming Dynasty has undergone many changes, it has not yet affected the fate of these people.

As in history, they won the middle of this spring and successfully entered a completely different career of Emperor Chongzhen.

In the original history, after Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself, some of these people chose to hang themselves, some chose to recruit troops to resist the Qing Dynasty, and some chose to shave their hair and descend to the Qing Dynasty.

For those who had shaved their hair and surrendered to the Manchus after the death of the Ming Dynasty, the Chongzhen Emperor had intended to remove them from the list of tributes.

But after thinking about it, in the end it was decided to keep their name.

Because of the different Chongzhen Emperor now, the fate of the Ming Dynasty has undergone many changes imperceptibly.

Even in the spring of Chongzhen's four years, they still passed the Jinshi examination in accordance with the inertia of history, and the fate of these people in the original history, or the ending, will inevitably change in the next few years.

Therefore, although Emperor Chongzhen was not very satisfied with the four years of Chongzhen's spring, he still recognized the list of tributes submitted by Xu Guangqi, He Ruchong and Jia Jichun.

At midnight the next day, the list of tributes in the spring of Chongzhen's fourth year was posted at the gate of the Gongyuan in the Chongwen Gate of the Jingshi Division.

Knowing that he was Chinese-style, and he was still the first in the Daming Jingshi Examination, that is, the news of the high school Huiyuan, Song Shilie from North Korea couldn't believe it.

Accompanied by several Korean scholars who became quasi-jinshi of the Ming Dynasty at the same time, Song Shilie, who was only 24 years old, entered and exited several times at the gate of the crowded Gongyuan, rubbing his name over and over again, crying and laughing for a while.

is completely different from Song Shilie, who was crazy and stupid after learning that he was at the top of the list, Huang Zongxi, who is also Chinese, has been depressed since he learned his ranking.

He knew very well that if it weren't for the fact that there were Korean scholars participating in the examination this time, His Majesty the Emperor would not have added ten places for this Spring Festival.

And if there were no ten places added by His Majesty the Emperor to this Spring Festival, it would be impossible for him to get the Zhonggongshi.

This made Huang Zongxi himself, as well as his younger brother Huang Zongyan and others who accompanied Huang Zongxi to see the list, happy, and sighed Huang Zongxi's good luck and good luck.

It's just that seeing that he is ranked behind the five hundred tributes, Huang Zongxi, who has always been proud of his talent and full of confidence, is a little depressed while rejoicing.
