Chapter 479 The big exam begins

@@@@@@@@@@@@ "Father, are my new clothes beautiful?"

"Well, it's beautiful. Our Xixi is the most beautiful."

"Father, there is also me."

"Of course, Ning'er is also the most beautiful."

"Father, you said that you should be honest. The first is the first, and the second is the second, so you can only use one word. Who is the most beautiful, my sister and I?"

"

In the new garden on the first day of the Chinese New Year, the lanterns are festive and noisy. When Li Mo's milky voice from the little princess Lexi is equivalent to "Who will be saved first when my daughter-in-law's mother falls into the water together?" It's already noon to escape from the multiple choice questions of the century.

A person's world is very hard, and the secret in his heart can't even be said to the closest person. This feeling is difficult for ordinary people to understand, so he particularly likes to be lively, as if only in this way can he feel that he is still alive in reality.

Although he was married in his previous life, he had no children, but now he has four at once. No, it's five children, because last year, he brought him a third prince.

It is naturally a happy event to open branches and scatter leaves, but under his loose education method, these little ghosts are all people and elves. They just praised a few words and were taken advantage of.

Li Mo smiled bitterly and looked up. The new garden was already wrapped in silver, and the lake in the distance was covered with white fog, which added a bit of poetry to the royal garden.

" Zhen'er, go with me."

"Yes, father."

Li Zhen, who is 16 years old, was born in a small size and the first child after Li Mo's reincarnation. Looking at this eldest son who looks almost a replica of his youth, Li Mo has always had very special feelings for him.

It's not that he is very good for Li Zhen. As a person of later generations, he treats every child the same, but because of his birth, he experienced the excitement of being a father for the first time and understood that he lived in a living world.

Sixteen years old, still the same age in later generations, but children in this era are very precocious. Although Xinhua's marriage law stipulates that they can only marry at the age of 18, there are still early marriages in many places. Moreover, as a prince, he is also an example of the brothers and sisters below. With personal teaching, Li Zhen is more sensible and mature than ordinary children. When he saw his father calling him to walk together, he knew that he must have something to ask himself.

Walking along the south coast of Yingtai and looking at his eldest son like his own shadow, Li Mo couldn't help sighing that the years were unforgiving. In the blink of an eye, he had returned to this era for 20 years. The 12-year-old Xiao Zhengtai, who took everyone out of trouble in a cage-like boat, is now the emperor of a huge country.

For the princes, contact with state affairs is inevitable. It's better to say it frankly, so after thinking about it, he asked, "Zhen'er, I heard from your mother that many people in your school are talking about this election?"

Li Zhen was slightly stunned and didn't understand why his father suddenly asked this. You should know that he never talked about state affairs with himself, but although he didn't understand, he still said truthfully, "Yes, many people in the school are talking about this matter."

"Oh? Can you tell me about it? How do they talk about it? Who will you choose?

"I don't know who to choose, but many people say that if their father supports whom, they will choose."

I didn't expect to get this answer. Li Mo laughed dumbly, suddenly looked deeply at his eldest son and asked, "So Zhen'er, do you think I should make a statement?"

Although he studied abroad under a pseudonym, as long as he was free, Li Mo would still talk to him a lot of things. Although it did not involve state affairs, he could still vaguely grasp his father's thoughts. However, this was the first time to chat about state affairs, and he was nervous and hesitantly didn't know how to say it.

Seeing his appearance, Li Mo stared and scolded with a smile, "Manly man, there's nothing you dare to say."

"Yes, father." His father's encouragement made Li Zhen summon up his courage and said, "I don't think our royal family should take a position, but should continue to remain silent and neutral, because our country adopts a constitutional monarchy, so everything should be in accordance with the constitution. The general election is the right given to you and the country to all citizens. If you make a statement The words are equivalent to interfering with this right.

"In addition, Zhener feels that maintaining neutrality and not making a statement can allow everyone to calm down and think about the party's policy is more beneficial to himself and the country."

"Father, didn't you say that? The reason why the Qing Dynasty was finally rotten is that they imprisoned the people's right to think and let a small number of people decide the future policy direction of the country. There are many wise and talented people among them, but more of them are those who only know how to execute orders. In this way, after a long time, it will inevitably lead to national science and technology. And the rigidity of the economy.

"So Zhener feels that this is not so much a general election as giving the people a chance to think."

Li Mo didn't expect that his question would lead to such a big truth. He couldn't help but be a little surprised. He stared at Li Zhen and asked, "Is this what you think?"

"It's not all." In the face of skeptical eyes, Li Zhen shook his head frankly: "In fact, many of them were told by the teacher to you. Zhener just summed them up."

"Well, it's good to summarize them." Li Mo praised that although it was the edification of knowledge and ideas brought by his later generations, it was good to be able to say what he had just said, and this appreciation also made Li Zhen laugh. You know, Li Mo rarely praised their brothers and sisters.

Seeing that Li Mo was in a good mood, Li Zhen thought carefully and suddenly scratched his head and said, "Father, in fact, Zhener also has one thing to ask for your help."

"Oh? What can I do for you? Li Mo stopped curiously. This was the first time in the first time. He couldn't figure out what else he asked for as a prince?

"Father, Zhen'er is 16 years old today, so can you do it?" Li Zhen scratched his head, as if there was something unspeakable about this request. After a long time, he made up his mind and said, "I want to move out."

"Move out?!" Li Mo couldn't help but be dumbfounded by the eldest son's request. At first, he thought that he wanted a car or something at most, but now he moved away directly.

Is there too much thought indoctrination in your future generations? Is this little guy starting to enter the era of rebellion?

"Why? Does your mother know?"

"Shen'er doesn't dare to talk to her mother." Li Zhen shook his head with the corners of his mouth and said, "Father, didn't you say that? Boys should learn to read as soon as possible, and many of my classmates often gather at home, that's why I.

Li Mo understood that the little guy began to have his own social circle, but he could not bring them to the new garden, because doing so was tantamount to revealing his identity, which was bound to complicate the small circle, so he thought about it and couldn't help laughing and said, "Ok, you can go to Uncle Xiufeng later and let him arrange it for you. But you have to come back for three days a week, or your mother will be worried.

"Father, thank you!" Hearing that his request was agreed, Li Zhen jumped up excitedly, felt a little gaffe, and quickly stopped.

"All right, keep cheering, I didn't see it." Li Mo waved his hand with a smile. He also came from this age. Naturally, he knew how happy it was for these big boys to fly freely alone. However, just as he was about to continue to take care of him, a greeting suddenly came from behind him.

"The national seal is given to the emperor. The eldest prince's New Year's greetings is coming. I wish the emperor and the eldest prince a long life." Long Guozhang didn't know where he came out. Before he opened his mouth to say a lot of New Year's greetings, Li Mo interrupted him with a quick smile: "Stop, I heard these ears early in the morning, so don't do it."

"Ha ha, your Majesty, this is the rule." Long Guozhang smiled and suddenly turned around and shouted, "I'er, why don't you come to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor and the eldest prince? The girl's family is crazy all day long. What does it look like!"

"Yi'er?"

Li Mozheng was puzzled. After seeing Long Guozhang turn around, a girl immediately flashed out. She was sixteen or seventeen years old, dressed in a short embroidered jacket and a round face. The two dimples in the shallow smile were very cute, and the curved and thin eyebrows showed a pair of black and white eyes. The little mouth was like a red cherry, and I don't know if it was the sky. The air was still cold and tired all the way, and there was a slight redness on his cheeks. Standing in front of him, there was a beautiful taste.

What puzzled him more was that the girl was going to salute when she saw him, but she was suddenly stunned when she saw Li Zhen.

"National seal, what is this?"

"Ha ha, Your Majesty, this is our old dragon's little daughter, Xinyi." Long Guozhang was proud and scolded with a smile, "Did girl, are you stupid? Why don't you salute the emperor and the eldest prince?"

"Xinyi has met the emperor and the eldest prince." When the girl bowed, her eyes never left Li Zhen, which made Li Mo curious and asked, " Zhener, do you know each other?"

"Yes, Xinyi is Zhen'er's classmate, but she didn't know my identity before." Li Zhen stammered, and there was a trace of blush on his face.

"This dead boy!" Emperor Li scolded from the bottom of his heart and said with a smile, "Since you are classmates, you can take Xinyi around. Don't neglect the guests."

"Yes."

This sentence, like a pardon, made Li Zhenda relieved and quickly took Xinyi to say goodbye to the two people and walked to the courtyard.

Looking at the backs of the two young people, Long Guozhang wiped a meaningful smile on the corners of his mouth, but he didn't start to be complacent. Li Mo patted him on the shoulder fiercely and looked at him carefully and carefully until he looked at the naval commander. He suddenly asked, "Guo Zhang, Xinyi, this girl is really your girl. Female? Why doesn't it look like you at all?"

The commander-in-chief of the navy lowered a few black lines on his forehead and said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, this child Xinyi follows her mother."

"Oh?!" Emperor Li said in a long voice, and then sighed heavily: "Oh, the flowers are inserted in the wrong way."

"Puff~." This sentence made Du Dazhuang and several guards, who had been following him from afar, smile crookedly. When Long Guozhang looked at it murderously, he quickly turned away and continued to twitch.

Seeing that Long Guozhang's face was black, Li Mo was even more happy, but he turned around and remembered a very serious thing. He was surprised and asked, "Guo Zhang, Zhener just told me that she wanted to move out. Do you think it would?"

This sentence made Long Guozhang suddenly think about it. Although he brought his daughter today and exposed the secret of Li Zhen's identity, the two children are only 16 years old. Isn't it too early? And coincidentally, the eldest prince suddenly proposed to live outside on the day he came. Isn't it a coincidence?

Li Mo didn't want to care about this matter. The young people had their own world, so it was so bad that Long Guozhang's eyes widened. During the period of Ai Ai for a long time, she had no confidence to droop her tongue and swallowed for a long time: "No way, Xinyi is very obedient and obedient."

Just as he was sad, Li Enfu, Rong Kui and Chen Ping also came. Because many people took their families with their families, the children didn't care about them when they saw Li Mo, and immediately overturned the new garden. These roaring baby soldiers made everyone shake their heads with a wry smile.

The minister paid a New Year call to himself. Of course, Emperor Li would bleed and set up a banquet to comfort the ministers and generals who had worked hard for a year. It was not until it was dark that the yard gradually regained the tranquility of the past.

Looking at the heavy snow outside the window, Li Mo dialed the red charcoal stove, glanced at Li Enfu, Rong Kui and Chen Ping, who were deliberately left in the study, put down the iron brad and said seriously, "Enfu, Rong Kui, are you ready for the general election?"

One of them is the leader of the Grand National Party and the current Prime Minister. One is the leader of the Liberal Party, the president of the House of Representatives today, coupled with the constitutional and Li Mo's deliberate restrictions on not issuing the registration of a third party, so the Xinhua election is a competition between the two.

For any political party that has the right to participate in the election, it is a great honor to stay in the Prime Minister's Office, so when Li Mo called the three of them to the study, they clearly wanted to ask about this matter.

As an opposition party, Rong Kui looked at Li Enfu, nodded and said first, "Your Majesty, please rest assured that Rong Kui and Mr. Enfu have discussed and will never cause chaos."

"That's good." With Rong Kui's promise, Li Mo put down his last worry. Neither of them were fools. Naturally, he knew how to choose, so he was not really worried about the two of them, but that the people under them would have ulterior motives!

So he said seriously: "You all passed the rules when making them, so now that you have the rules of the game, you must abide by them! So you must tell everyone the cost of violating the rules! Tell them that no matter what the result is, they must accept it!" When Li Mo said this, he had been looking at Rong Kui. To be honest, from the current signs, the Liberal Party led by Rong Kui could not compete with Li Enfu, so his words were almost equivalent to telling him alone.

Li Mo seldom trains people, and he usually doesn't like to talk coldly, but when he says this, he is particularly serious. Not to mention them, even Chen Ping, who was born in the army, is very cold-hearted.

In fact, the three of them also know what Li Mo's real worries are. The country is so big, and there are still bandits in many places so far. It has only been ten years for political parties to appear on this land. Everyone knows the good and bad things below. The Western electoral system is the first to come, so even they The three of them were also worried that the election would cause turmoil.

In order to avoid suspicion and maintain the neutrality of the royal family, it is impossible for Li Mo to intervene in the election. Without absolute prestige and suppression, it is easy to lead to the confusion of many people in the election. Once this confusion is used by intentional people, it will inevitably cause social unrest and destroy the foundation laid by more than ten years!

So Rong Kui once again solemnly promised on behalf of the three people: "Your Majesty, don't worry, we have a choice."

After a few more words about the arrangement of the general election, Rong Kui and Li Enfu got up and left. It was not until they were sent out of the door that Li Mo's eyes gradually condensed.

"Yuanshou, you are personally responsible for the security of the general election. The local police departments shall not use any excuse to evade or obstruct it. In addition, during the week of the general election from March 1 to March 8, the army will cancel all vacations, and all soldiers must return to the station to stand by!"

"If there is a problem!" Li Mo suddenly turned his head and said coldly, "You should know what to do!"

"Yes!" Chen Ping suddenly got up and replied with his feet.

With Chen Ping's order, the first real election in Xinhua's history has entered the countdown, and all newspapers and political axes from all over the country have also begun to post articles to publicize the election.

The two parties also made their own surprises. They printed a large number of pamphlets, and also walked into factories to publicize their respective ideas and expound the benefits of giving everyone and the future of the country after they came to power.

As an afterlife, Li Mo is used to this kind of promotional show similar to the American election. For him, for this country, this is a big test!

A country's future choice is finally spread out in front of everyone. The worry is not who will win, but whether people will accept this new idea!
