Chapter 185 Ping the Japanese Policy


Chapter 185 Ping Wa Ce

The weather was groggy along the way, and the team arrived in Anqing in the evening. Although the weather was sultry along the way, luckily it didn’t rain. I bought a lot of time for my family’s autumn rush. I want to come This time there should be no problem.

Because it was already evening when we arrived in Anqing City, Zhu Ping'an stayed in Anqing for one night and prepared to go to the riverside the next morning to look for a passenger ship to Yingtian.

The next morning, Zhu Pingan left the room and left the inn with his luggage on his back. At this time, it started to rain lightly outside. Zhu Pingan covered his luggage with a linoleum and held a bamboo umbrella. Walk to the river.

Finding a small shop by the river, Zhu Pingan drank a bowl of old duck soup with the fried cakes made by his mother, Chen. People along the Yangtze River love to eat duck. According to locals, duck is cool to warm and is best cooked. After a hurried breakfast, Zhu Pingan took his luggage to the dock on the Yangtze River. The dock was very busy with people coming and going, and the ships on the river were as densely packed as ants.

Unexpectedly, the Yangtze River water transport was so developed in the Ming Dynasty. There were cargo ships, passenger ships, and cruise ships on the dock, which was very lively.

Zhu Ping'an inquired about the prices of three boat operators on the riverside, settled on a passenger ship, paid more than 300 yuan in shipping fees, and boarded the passenger ship. This is a large, streamlined ship with a long hull and a spacious and neat superstructure. I heard boatmen say that their boats are fast and comfortable to live in.

The money Zhu Ping'an paid belonged to the third-tier seats. The cabin he stayed in had four beds, but it was clean and tidy, with good air circulation, tables, chairs and beds in order, and meals were provided. Of course, this requires extra money. . It was my first time to take a long-distance boat ride, which was quite refreshing. After boarding the ship, Zhu Pingan put his luggage on the berth and opened the bay window, where he could sit or lie down, holding on to the edge of the window. The river breeze is blowing, which is very pleasant.

When the ship sets off. No one has come up to the room where Zhu Ping'an is, so the price of a third-class seat means the enjoyment of a first-class seat. good. In Daming, there are many baiji dolphins in the Yangtze River. From time to time, baiji dolphins will follow the passenger ships outside the window, jumping up and down, like a dolphin show in an aquarium, which is very beautiful.

The white emperor's speech is among the colorful clouds, and the thousand miles to the tombs are returned in one day.

The wind was smooth and the boat was moving very fast. The boat set off in the morning. At noon the next day, we arrived at the dock outside Yingtian City. When we arrived at Yingtian, due to the recent heavy rains in the Yangtze River, the original dock on the Yangtze River had been submerged by the Yangtze River water. A new simple dock was built on the riverside. Several small boats were parked side by side, tied with ropes, and covered with a layer of water. The wooden board is wobbly and not very stable.

When getting off the boat, the boatman and the waiters stood at one end and the other, shouting loudly and directing the passengers on the boat to get off the boat. Zhu Ping'an carried his luggage, staggered on the wooden board and got off the boat, and successfully crossed to the other side.

With his luggage on his back and standing outside Yingtian City, Zhu Pingan suddenly felt like I, Hu Hansan, was back.

"Hey, hey, hey. The one in front needs to move. If you don't want to give way, don't block the way."

The rough voice of a man behind him. Zhu Ping'an's high-spirited feeling disappeared with just one voice.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Zhu Pingan turned his hand over in embarrassment and got out of the way.

"Oh. It's the scholar. I'm disrespectful." That man is also well-informed. Seeing Zhu Pingan's student uniform, he couldn't help but tone a lot more respectfully. He paused and let Zhu Pingan go first.

"Wherever, please." Zhu Ping'an cupped his hands and motioned for the other party to go first.

"You go first, I'm not in a hurry." The man shook his head.

Uh, okay, Zhu Pingan took the lead to Yingtian City with his luggage and umbrella. After entering Yingtian, Zhu Pingan walked straight to the inn where he stayed last time.

The familiar Qinhuai River case, the familiar Jiangnan Gongyuan, the familiar Confucius Temple, and soon we arrived at the inn where we stayed last time. Because we only spent less than two days on the road this time, and there were still about seventeen days before the scientific examination, there were not many people in the inn at this time.

Zhu Ping'an just entered the inn. The shopkeeper immediately recognized the head of the hospital exam who walked out of the inn. He welcomed Zhu Ping'an into the inn very enthusiastically and asked the waiter to get a dry towel. Asking the waiter to pour ginger soup makes you feel at home.

"Master Zhu is going to stay in the hotel. Your room was reserved for you last time."

Perhaps Zhu Ping'an's last case brought a lot of business to the store. , the shopkeeper directly arranged Zhu Ping'an to the upper room where he stayed last time. When paying, the shopkeeper refused to accept the payment many times, but only accepted the money at Zhu Ping'an's insistence, but the price was one hundred cents less than the last time the attic paid.

It has been raining for a long time, and it still has no intention of stopping. The rain pattered outside the window and pounded heavily on the window.

It only lasted two days, one autumn rain and one cold. It was still very hot when I left home, but now I can feel the coolness.

Zhu Pingan packed up his things, took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, then sat at the table, spread out pen, ink, paper and inkstone, wrote a peace letter, and wrote the address, recipient, etc. Information, and a small sum of money asked the clerk downstairs to take the time to deliver it to the nearby Civil Information Bureau. Zhu Ping'an only knew that there was a People's Credit Bureau at this time, but he didn't know how much the fee was. He gave the shop clerk a piece of silver, and he would refund the extra money and use the extra money as his own meal money.

The Civil Information Bureau is similar to our post office today. This is a private institution that appeared during the period of Emperor Zhu Di. It is responsible for the delivery of letters, small packages and even money. It mainly emerged along the southeastern coast. Now it has almost spread to the whole country. However, the speed of mail delivery is far from what it is today. Of course, Zhu Ping'an didn't care what the reason for his appearance was, as long as he could send the news that he was safe to his parents.

In the evening, the store clerk brought dinner, gave Zhu Pingan a receipt note with a private seal, and informed Zhu Pingan that the letter had been sent to the Civil Information Bureau, and twenty dollars were left. Money.

After thanking the shopkeeper and having dinner, Zhu Pingan sat in front of the window, lit an oil lamp, and practiced writing strategies.

After passing the Boy's Examination, policy theory plays a large role in the Provincial Examination, General Examination, Palace Examination, etc., so policy theory must be mastered proficiently. In ancient times, poetry and poetry were one aspect of evaluating a person's intelligence, but strategy was also a very important evaluation factor. For example, Su Xun, one of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties, was Su Shi's father. Have you heard of any of his poems? No, he rose to fame with his policy essay "On the Six Kingdoms". His argument about the Six Kingdoms was spread throughout the country at that time, and he suddenly became one of the eight great writers of the Tang and Song Dynasties.

"The six kingdoms were destroyed, and the only disadvantage was the military. The war was not good, and the disadvantage was bribing Qin." I believe everyone has learned such a text. This was the answer sheet of Su Xun in the imperial examination at that time.

Although the eight-part essay took up a large part of the entire imperial examination of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court still focused on policy theory in selecting talents. For example, the most important imperial examination in the imperial examination only tested one policy theory. The emperor asked questions about major national affairs, civil and economic issues at that time, and the candidates answered them. This was the strategy for the imperial examination. For example: The emperor asks you how to control Japanese pirates along the coast, and you come up with your own ideas, opinions and opinions. In addition to the palace examination, the provincial examination will also test policy theory.

Well, at this time, Zhu Ping'an tried to write a policy paper on countering Japanese pirates based on the theme of coastal Japanese invasion, drawing on the comments on Japanese pirates that he had read in modern times.

“Everything that a Japanese slave needs is produced in China, woven like a step, made in either Hangzhou or Suzhou; the powder for women’s beauty is made in the Central Plains; it is also like gorgeous porcelain, dense and dense. The rice paper from the lake, the gauze from the lake, and the silk from Guang are indispensable for the Japanese country

The Japanese were in chaos and attacked each other. In the barbaric land, every village and town claimed to be a lord and attacked each other. No one was killed or injured, and the homeless were displaced. They were blatantly thieves and coveted China's prosperity. They were greedy and greedy. Snakes swallowed elephants and sailed out to sea as pirates. In our coastal towns, the invaders were in Shandong, Zhili, eastern Zhejiang, Fujian and other places, and the war continued.

The reason why the Japanese pirates invaded the border brazenly was not because of their boldness, but because of the self-respect of our country in raising pirates. In ordinary times, the government did not care about the people's livelihood, and there was no problem in educating them. They were hungry and cold. The unruly people below became bandits, and they became thieves in groups. When the Japanese pirates came, they led them to invade our coast. These thieves colluded with the Japanese pirates, burned our warships, and caused the people to invade our city.

After finishing writing, Zhu Pingan read it once, suddenly crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the trash can. After thinking about it, he picked it up again and burned it close to the oil lamp.

Now is the time when Jiajing was refining elixirs and Yan Song was in power. He is not looking for trouble by talking about corruption in government, inadequate armaments, and many other problems. Well. Now the emperor opened Enke because of the frequent occurrences of peace and prosperity. Isn’t it a slap in the face of the emperor to report all these problems? Doesn’t he mean to report Yan Song? Yan Song has many minions. With a small body, Yan Song's minions could just move their little fingers and wait to go to Jinyiwei or Dongchang Prison

Yan Song is a traitor, but now is not the time to face him head-on.

So, Zhu Pingan took out another piece of rice paper, lit an oil lamp, and wrote another article with a different idea. (End of this chapter)
