Rebirth of Xu Fanghua

Chapter 356 Reform is imminent, who will make trouble

In the imperial study of the Qianming Palace, the light hanging bright yellow mantle covered the spiring sun tightly. The emperor on the throne looked solemn, listening to the first young man on the left talking, and his voice was as clear as jade.

There are still six people silent.

It was Yu Yu who spoke. Su Ji and Wei Yuan sat next to him, and the four people sitting in the east were the prince and two, three and four adult princes.

Su Yi and Wei Yuan's expression was condensed and calm. The prince seemed to be a little too weak. King Fu listened carefully. The third prince had been flying obliquely at the corners of his eyes, and the fourth prince was steady.

What Yu Yu said was the detailed rules for the reform of the official system discussed and formulated during this period of time.

is mainly to resume the imperial examination and further detailed rules on the basis of the old example of the previous dynasty. It is different from the previous dynasty. State government colleges are only one of the ways to transport candidates. The new system has been formulated. Those who participate in the township examination must be enrolled. In addition to the highest university, Kyoto Guozijian, official schools are comprehensively set up in various prefectures, prefectures and counties.

If you have to enter the official and scholars, you must pass the children's examination. Those who have obtained the qualification of birth or supervisors can have the opportunity to participate in the township examination. In February of the following year, they entered Beijing to participate in the examination, which was presided over by the Ministry of Ceremonies and were called tribute in the examination. Those who obtained the qualification of tribute participated in the palace examination presided over by the emperor himself in the same year. It is divided into three armors, and only three armors are taken, collectively known as three Dingjia, two armors are given to Jinshi, and three armors are given to the same Jinshi.

In addition to the imperial examination officials, of course, the method of yinfeng has also been retained, which is one of the sources of Guozijian students. Some yinjian also said that supervisors can be directly awarded by the emperor, and those who have not been appointed must pass the township examination to enter the official examination.

"If this edict is issued this year and the college is set up, the first children's examination will be held next year. All Dalong scholars, regardless of the cold family, can enter the examination." Tianzi muttered: "Although you plan to take the township test every three years, it can be a trial. I think that the first batch of students can enter the examination after one year of enrollment."

That is to say, the first township test of Dalong will be celebrated for eight years.

The third prince smashed some details and looked at Yu Yu's sharp eyes - once the imperial examination resumed, there must be a group of officials who wanted to retake their positions. Most of the nobles were from the martial arts, and the shock was not big, but it was a big impact for the family.

Especially for the former dynasty, which made contributions to the founding of the country. For decades, the children of the family have been appointed as a shade. Although there is no shortage of scholars, there are also some dillons among them. Relying on the formation of parties to raise white-collar salaries, enjoy honor, and actually idleness, this group of officials will definitely stand out in this wave of imperial examinations. Elimination.

In addition to the big clan, there are more families that are gradually declining. Although they have roots, it is not easy for their children to become officials. In the past, they could only form the two phases of officials, which led to the weakening of their rights and monarchy rights. Once the imperial examination is carried out, there will be more opportunities for them, and more people should be in favor than against them.

There is also a shade supervisor as a buffer, which seems to give preferential treatment to the sons of officials, but the appointment is completely decided by the emperor, and the Ministry of Officials and the Prime Minister no longer have the right to speak.

Behind this series of rules, there is a meaning of uniting the declining family and fighting against those who enjoy the title.

The family group will be divided first, and the implementation of the new system will be relatively smooth.

When the new system gradually becomes large, the so-called shade seal is becoming more and more difficult. Unless the saint trusts, even if he becomes an official, he will get a false job.

In this way, it not only gives the world a fair opportunity to enter the office, but also strengthens the imperial power and deprives the two officials of the control.

On the surface, there is still grace to the meritorious officials. In fact, it all depends on whether the ministers are loyal and conscientious, and whether they can be trusted by the emperor.

Seeing the satisfaction of the emperor, the reform of the official system is imperative.

The third prince glanced at his fourth brother again and found that the Fourth Highness, who had been constantly admuring during this period, was very calm and low-key in front of the eldest brother of the prince today.

And just as the emperor greatly appreciated the constitution drawn up by Yu Yu and others and was ready to make a decision, and decided to announce at the next day's meeting to listen to the suggestions of hundreds of officials, the prince spoke.

This somewhat surprised the three or four princes. Their eldest brother has always not known how to build a tree, but only knows how to echo.

"Father, the new system proposed by the two cabinet departments is certainly detailed, but the ministers think that if it is proposed during the court discussion, it will inevitably lead to fierce controversy. The new system has not yet been implemented, and the court will be restless."

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh? What does the prince think should be?

The prince got up, and the red python's four claws soared into the air, which was quite powerful.

"Or we should first convene a palace meeting and let the members of Zhongshu Province discuss and pass it. In this way, the matter of the implementation of the new policy will be spread. Maybe some people who can't help it will form a joint party and prepare for chaos. My ministers think that they should take advantage of their failure to take advantage of the situation to strike the leaders as a deterr of the chaos, and then announce the discussion in the dynasty, and there will be no debate. The voice."

Yu Yu squeezed the corners of his lips and spoke silently - although this method is not fair and upright, it can effectively suppress the opposition of the families. First, let the prominent people be prepared to hear the news, test who wants to protect their power against the new system, implement the threat to attack threats, and make everyone silent by strong means to ensure the smooth implementation of the new system.

If it is directly proposed in the court, once the courtiers from the clan raise a group of opposition, the emperor will be detained by "broad advice". If the universe is arbitrary, it is inevitable that there will be a suspicion of "arrogative". However, such a dispute may take a year and a half, and may also be widely involved, which is not conducive to the smooth implementation of the new system.

At present, the incumbent in charge of Zhongshu Province, whether noble or a family, are all prominent and rich families. The prince proposed to summon the palace first, with the intention of getting two sides to agree first. In this way, the big clan will not blatantly disobey the holy will. Most of those who come out to jump out of the beam are mostly ignorant and skillful, only rely on the mediocre people who climb the power to protect the family's glory, but in political affairs How can the prince who has no achievements know that Qin Xiang will not refute this time?

Yu Yu is very puzzled. This is not like the strategy that the prince can come up with, but a little like the means of the third prince.

But at this time, the third prince looked at the prince with ten considerations.

Yu Yu's heart sank.

But he heard the emperor say, "Is this the prince's opinion?" The tone seemed to be a little strange, and there was a faint cold slip in the eyes.

The prince did not realize it: "It is the minister's simple opinion, and once the imperial examination is carried out, the Ministry of Ceremonies has more and more power. The minister thinks that the current Ministry of Ceremonies is mediocre and can't take on important responsibilities. He should choose another virtuous person."

The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Does the prince have a suitable candidate?"

"To my father, I think that this person not only needs to have both talent and virtue, but also to be born in the family of poems and books worthy of his name, so that he can be a model for the world's scholars and take charge of the affairs of scholars."

Yu's eyes were raised, and his mood was even heavier.

Sure enough, he heard the prince say, "Qingzhou Wei, who can take this job, will definitely convince the public."

The emperor smiled softly: "The Wei family has retired for a long time, and I didn't expect that the prince would still remember it."

It's a little strange to hear this.

The fourth prince's eyebrows moved and couldn't help siping the corners of his lips.

The third prince looked at home.

Fu Wang took a look at Yu Wei and was a little worried.

"Yuanyang, what do you say?" The emperor asked.

Yu Yu sighed that the Wei family was the oldest family. More importantly, it was especially "clean" after the founding of the founding of Dalong and had no contact with the nobles. It not only had prestige, but also avoided party formation for personal gain. It was indeed the most suitable candidate to implement the new system. Yu Yu expected that the emperor would be willing to persuade him in advance. Outsiders entered the official, but Wei didn't even say a word perfunctorily and directly ignored this topic.

But at present, we can't say that Wei has no intention of becoming an official in front of the emperor.

I had to promise: "What the prince has seen."

The emperor pondered for a moment and told Yu Yuan to write a letter to Wei first - after all, Gaozu's "vice virtuous scribe" was rejected, and the emperor was unwilling to rush to the nail, which was the most appropriate for Yu Yu to come forward.

At the end of the discussion, everyone filed out, but Yu was outside the Qianming Palace and was stopped by the third prince.

"Yuanyang forgot to owe me a banquet?"

"I'm really sorry, I've been too busy to pull myself off recently."

"How about going to the Xiang Pavilion in Ping'an Square instead of hitting the sun?"

Liuxiang Pavilion was in the middle of Ping'an Square. Before noon, it was already full of guests. The third prince was obviously a regular guest. When the car arrived in front of Liuxiang Pavilion, several stewors in brocade bowed to meet him. He was about to kneel and was stopped by the third prince waved his hand.

The stewor of the restaurant raised his eyes slightly and saw that the nobleman behind him was also wearing a purple suit with a jade belt wrapped around his waist. He knew that it was also Wang Sun Guiqi. He hurried forward to salute and invited him to the elegant room in the backyard. Although it was the time when guests were one after another, these luxurious restaurants and teahouses had seven or eight empty elegant rooms for a long time. In case of emergency.

The two sat down, and the third prince waved a pot of jade brewing spring. He was about to drink wine again, as if he hesitated for a moment, and raised the corners of his lips gently: "If I had known Yuanyang was not good at drinking, but at least three drinks are inevitable today."

Yu Yuyun smiled lightly: "Do you dare not obey your Highness?"

"I should congratulate Yuanyang on his new marriage." The third prince's smile is impeccable and still shining.

The two drank three drinks silently, and Yu Yu said respectfully: "Thank you for your kindness to save your life, but if you have a chance, you will definitely repay it."

The third prince raised the corner of his eyes, greeted him quietly, and said meaningfully, "After drinking this wine, I have to remember this word in my heart." But he changed the topic: "How do you look at the attitude of the emperor today?"

Yu Yu frowned slightly: "Your Highness, do you think it's time?"

The third prince's eyes turned and shook his head with a smile: "Whether you believe it or not, I will protect the prince this time."

If there is another person on the spot, he will definitely be in the clouds, with clear words in his ears, but he doesn't know what the two are talking about.

The two extremely smart people have seen the emperor's attitude towards the prince today, which is absolutely not appreciated.

The prince's advice today should have been mentioned by the crown princess Zhen Lian, which was not his original intention, and the emperor obviously saw through this point.

When the new system is implemented, it may be followed by the abandoned concubine. If the prince disobeys the sacred will for this, the reserve position may change.

Yu Yu believes in the words of the third prince - at this time, if the third prince and the fourth prince are undoubtedly hot candidates, and the outcome is really unpredictable. Before the wings are abundant, of course, the eldest brother of the prince who hopes to be "like brothers" with him will still occupy this position, but Yu Yu can't see how the third prince will enrich his wings.

but did not continue this topic.

The two did not drink this luncheon. In fact, it was only half an hour later and it was over.

The third prince went straight back to the mansion and entered the study room in the east courtyard. He gently turned his eyebrows and greeted him. He was dressed in cherry red and water-colored hibiscus skirt. He smiled without saying a word, and his eyebrows were slow and affectionate.

It was this period of time when the maidservant was "famous" in the prince's mansion.

With a delicate "Your Highness" shouted, his slender waist fell into his arms. The third prince half hugged the beautiful woman, turned his pace slightly, and his body softened on a long bed.

At this time, there seemed to be drunkenness in the eyes, and the soft corners of the lips were like diamond flowers.

Qianpan sniffed gently at the tip of her nose and said an anger: "Is it jade brewing spring?"

"Good nose." The third prince muttered and was about to kiss Fangze, but there was a heavy cough outside the door.

Kong Xiaowu leaned against the door frame, and the cold light from his eyes immediately cooled down the sultry room.

Qianpan felt the loosening of her arms on her waist and stood up knowingly. Her eyes were still inseparable from the Third Highness, but she tidied up her clothes without hurry. She stepped back a few steps, punched Xiao Wufu and retreated without hesitation.

Kong Xiaowu's cold frost did not ease, and the corners of his eyes were sharp, still leaning against the door frame.

The third prince smiled softly: "Xi Lin is still so ignorant."

With a "bang", it was Kong Xiaowu who waved his hand and closed the door. Then he entered, and his smile was very strange: "If I remember correctly, Your Highness said last time that he would not affect the overall situation for the private affairs of his children."

The third prince supported his forehead with one hand and slightly opened the corners of his eyes: "What's wrong with me?"

"Your Highness still wants to argue? You know that the Fourth Highness sent these two maidservants with bad intentions, but you left them in the mansion, especially for this one, who actually let her enter the study. Does Your Highness want me to explain who this person looks like?

The corners of the third prince's eyes flashed sharply, but it turned into a smile, which was very enchanting: "What can a bitch enter the study? If I don't let her get close, what ability does she have to get closer? As for why I left them, of course, it was on purpose. How could they communicate with Lao Si as soon as they entered the deep house?

Kong Xiaowu was slightly stunned: "Your Highness means that Your Highness has arranged a cole for a long time?"

"If I can wire around him, won't he put his eyes on my side? But if this ear and eyes are useful, he won't blatantly send me these two maidservants."

Kong Xiaowu frowned: "Your Highness knew that this maidservant was similar to the princess, and expected that you would not refuse and would be infatuated with it... Does Your Highness accept these two women for the useless coderie?" Obviously, Kong Xiaowu didn't believe it.

The third prince snorted coldly: "If it hadn't been for the use of Qian, I would have killed her with a sword."

Kong Xiaowu was even more hesitant, and his lips slanted like a knife: "Does love give birth to hate?"

The third prince didn't say a word and closed his eyes slightly.

What qualifications does a lowly maidservant have to be similar to that person? However, this man is still of great use, which makes his plan suddenly have a definite direction.

But he suddenly opened his eyes, and there was a faint light in his eyes: "Xi Lin, think, why does Lao Si give two as a gift?"
