The next moment,
As if he had thought of something, the personal guard of the King of Chu's mansion spoke: "By the way, Miss Lingqi, the wind and snow outside are more violent than yesterday, or even a few days ago. If you are traveling, you should bring something to keep the cold."
Lu Lingqi's heart was shocked.
The wind and snow are getting heavier?!
Is it true or false?
She was very worried.
It wasn't because he was worried about the heavy wind and snow, but when His Highness went out today, he did not bring cold clothes, but only wore a dark clothes.
He quickly opened the tent.
Almond eyes looked out.
The weather today is not good.
Heavy snow is flying, cold wind is howling, and cloudy is covered.
The howling cold wind blew across Lu Lingqi's little face, and she felt a pain on her face, as if she was cut by a knife.
Her beautiful silver waist-length hair was even more chaotic in this cold wind, like a group of demons dancing.
Lu Lingqi narrowed her eyes.
The weather is indeed colder than yesterday. If she hadn't been practicing martial arts since she was a child, she would probably have not been able to survive for a month.
Calculate the time.
This is around August of the Tang Dynasty, and the snow-capped mountains here are already like this.
When November begins, December will naturally become colder.
And they will follow His Highness and continue to stay on this snow-capped mountain for many days.
at this time.
Lu Lingqi finally understood why His Highness wanted those literati men to leave the team first and break it into pieces on the road.
It turns out that it is because of this snow-capped mountain.
"Your Highness...what are you looking for?"
"What's the point of this snow that is worth making you mobilize so much?!"
As Li Kuan's personal bodyguard, Lu Lingqi didn't understand His Highness's thoughts.
His Highness is so mysterious that even after following him for many years, he can't see through what he is thinking.
Although I couldn't see it, Lu Lingqi knew that His Highness would never be able to come to such a ghost place for no reason.
Turn around and return to the tent.
Lu Lingqi came to the shelf and took out two cloaks.
"Next time the weather gets colder, please remind me that Your Highness has always liked to be light and simple. We need to arrange the matter of helping him prepare clothes for cold protection."
The personal guards of the King of Chu nodded and said that they would remember it in their hearts.
He put two big cloaks on his hands. Since he brought two coats, Lu Lingqi put her halberd in the tent and took two daggers to hide them on her legs.
Later, Lu Lingqi received a letter.
The letters are thick overall.
With the Taoist priest's character, he will not report any important things.
even so.
The letters are still as thick as fingernails.
It is conceivable.
Recently, there must be a lot of sudden changes in Chang'an City.
Open the tent again.
The cold wind whistles, and even if you exhale, you can get cold into your heart.
And in such a ghost weather.
There are many personal guards of the King of Chu outside, holding guns everywhere on guard.
This is just an open defense force.
Five hundred meters outside the camp, there were many personal guards of the Chu Palace who turned into spies and hiding around to detect whether there was any danger before approaching them.
The reason for doing all this was because the head of the Lu family in Fanyang was too tight.
The people he led were like dog skin plasters, always sticking to them, and they couldn't get rid of them no matter how hard they were.
Facing the cold wind.
Lu Lingqi went out so quickly.
Go around in circles.
When we arrived at a dead corner, there was a steep wall up to five meters in front of us.
This steep wall.
It is also the reason why Lu Lingqi is determined not to bring big ellipticals. It will only add to the burden of climbing.
And because of the wind and snow, ordinary warriors cannot climb up the steep wall at all, which is also the reason why Lu Lingqi insists on coming here.
"Your Highness, it will really add to people's worries."
Lu Lingqi rubbed her head with a headache.
The next moment.
He put two big cloaks on his body, and the cloud-patterned combat boots on his feet exerted force quickly, like a flying man. Lu Lingqi jumped into the air, and her two jade hands grabbed the stone exposed on the steep wall.
As done, jump again and grab the stone above again.
A few times later, she climbed up the steep wall here.
The scenery above the steep wall is only the snowy ground.
But in the extreme of the snow,
It was a cliff. Next to the cliff, there was a boy in black sitting cross-legged, holding his hands in his chest, and sitting straight with his spine.
At this moment.
The boy's clothes were thin, his body was almost covered with heavy snow, and his tied black hair danced in the wind and snow.
but.
Even though the wind and snow danced, the young man remained motionless and sat there quietly.
People who don’t know may think that this person’s clothes are so thin and without any movement, so he has been frozen to death.
But Lu Lingqi knew it.
This is just his highness closing his eyes and thinking about things.
"Your Highness, it's snowing heavily."
Lu Lingqi stepped forward, half-kneeled on one knee, and put on a cloak on the young man.
The boy kept silent.
Seeing this, Lu Lingqi did not move any other things and just waited quietly half-kneeling.
Waiting...
The boy's opening.
At this time, the wind and snow were a little heavier, and the wind was biting. However, the master and servant always maintained their posture, as if the two of them had separated from the original world and were indifferent to the world.
After a while.
The boy opened his eyes.
"It's Lingqi, you came here, why? It's time for dinner?"
The boy spoke.
This young man is naturally the King of Chu Li Kuan who has been disappearing.
The words do not express the meaning.
Obviously, Li Kuan fell asleep just now.
In this biting cold weather, it is really outrageous to meditate outside and fall asleep.
However, Lu Lingqi was used to it, took out the letter and said, "Your Highness, there is still some time to eat."
"This time I came here because the Taoist priest of Chang'an City came from letters. They should have summarized the recent events in Chang'an City in the letters."
"I know you're too lazy to read, so I'll open it for you and read it out for you."
Lu Lingqi made a gesture to open up the letters and recite them.
However, Li Kuan stopped her.
“No, no need.”
Lu Lingqi was slightly stunned, and her hand that untied the letter was stunned and said in surprise: "Your Highness, what do you mean..."
Li Kuan laughed, his voice full of magnetic properties.
"Do not doubt people, and do not use people who doubt people."
"When you leave, since everything is left to the Taoist priest, he should naturally decide."
"We are thousands of miles away from Chang'an City. If we judge how the Taoist priest will do it based on the words of letters and just a few words, there will be a mistake."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Lu Lingqi thought for a while and continued, "Your Highness, I won't make a judgment. You can see, how about it?"
Li Kuan still shook his head.
“No need.”
"I read the letter, I'm afraid..."
Speaking of this,
Li Kuan's deep eyes looked into the distance, his voice was extremely melancholy, and he said, "I, Li Kuan, will miss Chang'an City and Xiao Yizi."
When Lu Lingqi heard this, she was slightly stunned and then smiled bitterly.
She also wants Chang'an City.
This broken place,
It was cold and there was nothing left, and it was incomparable to Chang'an City.
"Why did your Highness insist on coming here?!"
"If we were in Chang'an City, we would never be at a disadvantage if we fought with the Fanyang Lu family for several times. Since leaving Chang'an City, we have lost the geographical advantage and the personnel and intelligence advantages. We were driven by the Fanyang Lu family like a dog with a broken family."
"Your Highness, Shu Lingqi dared to ask why he insisted on doing this?!"
After finally asking about this matter at the right time, Lu Lingqi said it all at once.
The words fell.
Li Kuan was silent for a while.
Smile slightly.
"You will know this later."
"Okay, let's not talk about this, Lingqi, look down from this angle, what can you see?!"
Li Kuan asked.
They were next to a cliff, and there was a deep abyss at their feet in front of them.
Seeing that his highness had no intention of answering her question, Lu Lingqi had to give up and go to the cliff and look down. She could see endless wind and snow, as well as the vast earth.
"Is it...the earth?"
Lu Lingqi is not sure.
"No, it's vision."
"vision?!"
"Not bad, vision! Only by standing at the highest position can you see the overall situation below and the smallness below."
Li Kuan laughed, looked up at the sky, and continued, "In the past, we were in Chang'an City, in the center of the whirlpool, and many things in Chang'an City limit our horizons."
"We cannot see clearly what is outside Chang'an City. After we came out this time... we went through various places and saw the customs and lives of various places. Since then, I, Li Kuan, have also seen clearly some things that have not seen through before."
"Fanyang Lu family, the Big Dipper..."
"What they did before was actually strange, and I, Li Kuan, also saw some of the things that Mr. Liu arranged."
"The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. Only by jumping out... can you see further and clearer."
Li Kuan couldn't stop sighing.
At this time, he was caught in some kind of recollection, and Lu Lingqi next to him did not hear what Li Kuan said clearly, because she was fascinated by the fact that Li Kuan was halfway through Li Kuan's words. She was fascinated by his own highness's serious appearance.
"Um?!"
After a while.
After reacting, his face became slightly hot.
Lu Lingqi turned her head away, not daring to look directly at Li Kuan, and asked, "Your Highness, what should we do next?"
"Continue to search for the snow mountain, what you are looking for should be above this higher snow."
Li Kuan had already had an idea.
Then, it seemed that something had come to mind.
Continue to speak.
"By the way, Lingqi, what's wrong with Xuzhou?!"
When talking about the serious matter, Lu Lingqi became much more serious and replied: "Don't worry, your highness, Mr. Yu has already brought people to Xuzhou. The two tasks you assigned him to protect that gentleman and build a Damascus steel mill are believed to be completed in the future."
"Um."
Li Kuan nodded with satisfaction, then continued to ask, "So, what about Youzhou?!"
"After leaving Chang'an City with us, Mr. Lan has taken advantage of Fan Yang's unpreparedness and left the team to take people over."
Lu Lingqi continued to respond, pursed her red lips and thought for a while, and continued, "Your Highness, don't worry, except for these two gentlemen, all the other gentlemen also acted according to the plan, separated from us on the road, and went to the prefectures and counties of the Tang Dynasty."
"Under Mr. Liu's plan, the head of the Lu family in Fanyang did not find that the separated gentlemen led the team to leave. They always thought that we were just the only army, and therefore... we attracted all the firepower."
Li Kuan understands it.
"Your Highness, Shu Lingqi takes the liberty to question. Mr. Liu's plan seems to have missed the head of the Lu family in Fanyang, but... this plan is to use you as bait. Now we have too few people available. Wouldn't your danger be increased a little?"
The words fell.
Li Kuan's face was calm, and he still sat down, looking at another snow-capped mountain in the distance.
"I am in danger all the time when Li Kuan is targeted by the Big Dipper, and he is in danger all the time, just as bait, but Er."
"It's Lingqi, a few days ago, Mr. Liu asked you to take some people to protect Mr. Sun and leave and go to Yizhou. Why did you refuse?"
After saying that.
Then he looked at the heroic Lu Lingqi.
Lu Lingqi quickly turned around, looked at Li Kuan for a short time and then lowered her eyes, then half-kneeled down at Li Kuan.
"Your Highness, Lingqi will only regard your safety as the first priority!"
"You... are also the backbone of all of us. If your situation is too dangerous, all the gentlemen will also care about your comfort, and will not be able to complete the tasks you assigned with all your heart."
"With Lingqi here, they can feel much more at ease!"
Li Kuan looked at Lu Lingqi. Since she lowered her head, she could only see her silver hair and said, "Isn't it your selfishness?"
Lu Lingqi's eyes flashed with panic.
Fortunately, I lowered my head and was not noticed.
"It's definitely not Lingqi's selfishness!!"
Li Kuan smiled and said, "Lingqi, just ask casually, don't be nervous."
"But... let me tell you the truth. You know that it is extremely dangerous to follow Mr. Sun to Yizhou. You still have many leisure days. Beside me, Li Kuan, there will be only endless wind and snow and threats from the Lu family from Fanyang. You have to think about it."
"It's not too late to look back now. You can take a single horse to leave the snow-capped mountains and go to Yizhou. This is what Mr. Liu and I mean."
When Lu Lingqi heard this, she said seriously: "Your Highness, Lingqi will not reply."
"Why, aren't you afraid of death?"
"What are you afraid of death? Lingqi is willing to swear to death and protect His Highness's safety!!"
Seeing that Lu Lingqi was serious.
Li Kuan is no longer abiding by his own opinions.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Hearing loudly.
"Okay! Since that's the case, then you'll follow me and watch it carefully. This war that was destined to be without gunpowder after leaving Chang'an City is destined to be free from gunpowder. I, Li Kuan, died, lost to everyone, or... break the trend! Kill, the Big Dipper!!"
After saying that.
Standing up, stepped forward and helped the half-kneel Lu Lingqi up.
With her, watch the snowflakes fall all over the sky.
Snowflakes are like humans.
It was him who was pulled down in the future, and the remaining people fell like snowflakes and could no longer live in a place, or... the enemy in the future would be like this.
………………………………………
at the same time.
Chang'an City.
Midnight at the hour of Yin.
The entire city in Chang'an City was pressed for pause, and every household was in a dream. In order to avoid causing trouble in the middle of the night, there were many Jinwu Guards patrols on the road.
And in Zhuque Street.
There is a restaurant called Wangfeng Restaurant. This restaurant is not very popular. Like the Chuhe Restaurant in the past, it opens a store and sells it casually.
but.
The entire Wangfeng Restaurant has existed for more than ten years, which has been around for nearly ten years.
For more than ten years, Wangfeng Restaurant has been arbitrary in opening a store, so the entire restaurant is not enough to make ends meet, but even so, it has been open for more than ten years.
Recently, Chuhe Restaurant’s hot pot has been popular, snatching away a large number of Zhuque Street diners, and the business of Wangfeng Restaurant has plummeted, with the number of customers on weekdays reaching the lowest point in more than a decade.
Even so, it continues to open as usual, regardless of wind and rain, and is not subject to various changes in Chang'an City.
Tonight.
Yin hour.
For guests tonight, Wangfeng Restaurant only has room 1, Tianzi, and guests can stay there for only one night.
at this time.
There was a maid in Wangfeng Restaurant and walked into room No. 1, Tianzi.
Tips in,
With a "cry" sound, room No. 1 of Tianzi was closed.
Inside.
The maid lowered her head and said half-kneeled: "Miss, interesting things happened in the Chang'an City Poetry Conference tonight. At the poetry conference, the identity of King Chu was a lay Buddhist in Jinyang, and it was revealed to the public and it was completely exposed."
In front of her was a screen, with candles lit on the other end of the screen, illuminating the shadow of the woman in the bath, which greatly enlarged and completely enveloped the entire room.
"Oh? That guy, the King of Chu, likes to hide things. I thought he was going to stammer for the rest of his life."
The woman was extremely surprised in her voice.
The maid raised her head and could see her smiling mask.
"Yes, Miss, maybe it wasn't the King of Chu who signaled it, but his sister Princess Changle was so angry that she helped him expose it."
"As for the method of exposure, it is still the key figure. Princess Little Snow Zi, the King of Chu trusts her very much. Before leaving Chang'an City, it seems that many things are placed with Princess Little Snow Zi."
"According to our dormant people, all the things of the King of Chu of Princess Little Squiri are hidden in some tattered treasure bags."
The words fell.
With a thud, the woman inside poured water down to clean her body.
Immediately.
She said, "Hehe, it's really interesting. It was revealed that the lay Buddhists of Jinyang were doing it because of the people around her."
"The King of Chu, should you say that you are smart and confused for a lifetime, or... your defense against the people around you is too low."
The maid smiled and said, "Miss, maybe this is also the weakness of the King of Chu. Now we know that many of his things are hidden in His Highness Little Princess. Should we... use the secret chess?!"
“No need.”
The woman inside was full of jokes: "When this matter, someone will help us explore the way."
The maid lowered her head and said, "Yes, Miss."
After saying that.
She was about to step down and leave.
But it was stopped by the woman there.
"Wait, now... there is no need to go back to pack your clothes. I have changed my mind. Although the King of Chu is not in Chang'an City, we don't need to leave, just stay in Chang'an City."
The maid was stunned and couldn't help asking: "Miss, you are..."
The woman inside was filled with jokes again, and she said, "I am interested in Chang'an City, haha, in terms of the catchphrase of the King of Chu, it's not so cold to watch the show."
"Let's see if this drama in Chang'an City can make people cheer, giggle, giggle..."
The whole room No. 1 of Tianzi kept echoing the woman's unrestrained laughter.
………………………………………
Perfect day
Chang'an City is up and down.
From the nobles and nobles to ordinary people!
Almost everyone knows that there was an immortal in the poem in the Tang Dynasty. He could read thirty famous poems from all ages at will!!
King Li Kuan of Chu, a lay Buddhist in Jinyang, and the name of a poet and immortal, resounded throughout the Tang Dynasty!!
Sure enough, in peaceful times, entertainment has always been much faster than scientific research after making achievements.
The students' dissemination was even more terrifying. After just one night, the name of King Chu was spread all over the world.
After that night, all the people in Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty were proud of the King of Chu and the lay Buddhist Jinyang who came from the Li Tang royal family.
There were countless scholars who regarded him as Wenquxing, who came down to the mortal world in the immortal world, hung the portrait of King Li Kuan of Chu on the wall, and visited him day and night to seek his blessing!!
The King of Chu became completely popular and exploded, and he became completely famous!!
On the streets of Chang'an, people who recite the poems of the King of Chu can be seen everywhere, and even greetings began to greet the poems of the King of Chu.
A completely trend has been formed.
It seems that after this night, if you didn’t know the two poems of King Chu, I’m sorry. To put it bluntly, you are embarrassed to say that you are a scholar.
Even ordinary people who can't read big words can recite a few sentences.
This shows how popular the reputation of the King of Chu and poetry were in the Tang Dynasty!!
As the saying goes: The name of the poetic immortal was spread to the Tang Dynasty, and no one in the world knows you!!!
The King of Chu has become an untouchable and insurmountable myth in the poetry world.
With the spread of the name of the King of Chu's poetic immortals, what happened at the Wangjianglou Poetry Festival at that time was also spread to the ears of countless people in the Tang Dynasty with the students.
At the same time, stories about this deed were also spread among storytellers.
At that time, the Zheng family in Xingyang was not so bad, but they said that the scholars seemed to be marketing accounts, crazily smearing the Zheng family in Xingyang, and portraying the extremely vicious depicted in the story, they were the biggest villain who blocked the King of Chu.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! The people listened to it and believed it to be true.
This also made the Zheng family in Xingyang despise by thousands of people and literati who did not attend the Chang'an Poetry Conference at that time.
Even many of the disciples who originally devoted themselves to the Zheng family in Xingyang left one after another.
There were also many scholars who respected the King of Chu and regarded him as gods, and wrote countless manifestos to criticize the Zheng family.
This time, the Zheng family in Xingyang violated the public anger of scholars all over the world!!
On the street, everyone who mentioned the Zheng family in Xingyang was disgusted with him, and even some even spoke harshly to him, punching and kicking him.
The wealthy family that was once prosperous became a rat crossing the street in an instant, which caused scholars to lose so quickly.
It is precisely because of the anger of scholars that countless people in the entire Zheng family in Xingyang dare not go out.
Even if he had to go out, he would not dare to claim to be from the Zheng family.
Otherwise, you will suffer a disaster!!
If there are only two people, ten or eight people, the Zheng family in Xingyang will not take it seriously at all.
However, now almost all the people in the world are hostile to their Zheng family!!
Even if their Zheng family is awesome, they will never be able to become enemies with the people in the world.
Not to mention a mere Zheng family, even Li Shimin, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, dare not say that he offended the public and became enemies of the people in the world!!
Although one citizen, ten people, and hundreds of people seem insignificant, the people of the world will be a force that cannot be shaken by no one.
Whether it is aristocratic family or imperial power, since ancient times, many people have gained the truth, few people have helped, and those who have lost the truth, and those who have won the hearts of the people have won the world.
At this time, the Zheng family in Xingyang violated the anger of the public and lost the hearts of the people, which led to the betrayal of the relatives.
This time, the impact they had was too great.
It had completely exploded to an uncontrollable level, and the anger that had been bullied by the aristocratic family for countless years broke out in this moment.
Like a landslide and tsunami, it is like a volcano eruption!!
Faced with this situation, except for the five surnames and seven hopes, many other aristocratic families naturally dare not continue to stand on the same front with the Zheng family in Xingyang.
The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.
Once it involves one's own interests, friendship and relationships will become as crisp as thin paper.
The Zheng family in Xingyang had no choice but to stand up and speak out under the condemnation of millions of literati, students and the people.
It claimed that everything was Zheng Hongyun and Zheng Yiyan, and they made their own initiative to frame and plagiarize the poems of King Chu, and their Zheng family did not know anything about it.
He also directly expelled Zheng Yiyan from the Zheng family and kicked out the genealogy. He must not be buried in the Zheng family's ancestral tomb after his death!!
However, doing so cannot remedy the impression of the Zheng family in the hearts of the world.
They are still punished by many scholars.
"The impact this time is really huge."
An elder of the Zheng family in Xingyang was extremely moved.
"Yes, it's good to last for this period of time. Everything is timely. Now it's just the Chang'an City Poetry Conference, which has just ended, so these damn people come to trouble us. In a few days and half a month, or a month, the matter will be over."
Another elder of the Zheng family spoke.
He has a lot of experience in dealing with such things.
People.
It is for the people of the world, each with their own ideas, and to put it in a bad way, it is a mess of sand.
When they gathered, the power they gathered was extremely terrible.
But as time goes by, people from all over the world with different minds will always leave this condensed stage one by one and return to the individual's life.
By then, there is nothing scary.
so.
He was not at all panicked.
"but……"
At this time, the elder of the Zheng family narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes were flashing with a dangerous edge. He continued, "After this poetry meeting, only half a day, countless scholars in Chang'an City were belittling me, Zheng."
"In just half a day, just the Chang'an Poetry Club, do they dare not be afraid of my Zheng family anymore? Is it true, or..."
"Where is someone who has ulterior motives?"
The words fell.
A person next to him said, "You mean, someone is planning everything behind?!"
"Not bad!" The elder of the Zheng family nodded and narrowed his eyes slightly: "And I may already know who this person is, that is, Erlang of the Li family!!"
……………………
Imperial City.
Tai Chi Palace.
The court retreated this morning, and Li Shimin has not handled government affairs since he returned to Tai Chi Palace.
worry!!
He was worried!!
I am so worried!!
I feel so sad that I feel depressed!!
"Auxiliary Machine, what do you mean is that most of the top 50 students in the Chang'an Poetry Conference last night had joined the aristocratic family camp?!"
Li Shimin's voice was low, as if suppressing endless anger.
According to Changsun Wuji.
Last night, after the court promulgated the names of the top 30 students, he sent someone to the door this morning to ask them if they had any intention of entering the officialdom.
Because they are some newcomers, and now the disaster victims and other natural disasters, the imperial court temporarily gave their official positions, which are very small and very hard.
But it's an official position, it's not.
So Li Shimin still had great expectations and wanted to gain a large number of talents through poetry.
result……
What's the result?
Officials who returned from the court reported to Changsun Wuji that most of their students were moved by the money of the aristocratic family and became the disciples of their family.
Most of the students joined the Five surnames and Qiwang.
This is a development that Li Shimin never thought of.
"Yes, Your Majesty, they all joined the aristocratic family, and..."
"Oh, forget it, I'd better let the parties involved say it."
Changsun Wuji lamented.
Then after obtaining Li Shimin's consent, the eunuch next to him asked to invite a young man in outside.
The young man was as gentle as jade, and he was a gentleman, but his clothes were a little torn.
"Who are you?!"
Li Shimin asked.
The young man saluted Li Shimin and said, "Go back to your Majesty, Xiaomin is a student in the Chang'an Poetry Conference last night. It was personally confirmed by Master Kong Yingda and Master Kong to be the eleventh place in the conference."
"Oh?" Li Shimin's eyes flashed and he looked at Changsun Wuji next to him.
Changsun Wuji immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the student was going to join the five surnames and seven hope families last night, and specifically joined the Boling Cui family, but after that, he abandoned the darkness and turned to our court."
Li Shimin suddenly realized.
"Student Lin, please tell Your Majesty about the situation last night."
Changsun Wuji looked at the young student Lin.
Student Lin nodded and replied, "Your Majesty, after the poetry meeting last night, Xiaomin wanted to go back to the restaurant room and sleep for one night. After a day of traveling to Chang'an, he returned to his hometown in Zhongmu County, south."
"But Xiaomin was stopped by people from the aristocratic family on his way back. They promised Xiaomin would get a lot of things by joining the Boling Cui family."
"They... promised Xiaomin irresistible gold and silver, and also gave a present value, with great freedom, which allowed Xiaomin to have a lot of time to travel around. In addition... they also promised Xiaomin that as long as they had the opportunity to recommend officials in the future, they would help Xiaomin recommend them to enter the official career."
"Xiaomin... lost his mind at the time and agreed to the Cui family. Later, he realized that our students should work hard to become a lay Buddhist in Jinyang. Jinyang is His Majesty's child. Xiaomin has an uncle as an official and said that His Majesty is incompatible with the aristocratic family."
"Disagreement with the aristocratic family is the enemy of the lay Buddhists of Jinyang, so the small people finally rejected the Cui family."
Listening to Lin Xuezi's story, Li Shimin finally understood why he could not compete for talent and aristocratic families.
first,
The first point is speed!!
After the poetry meeting, those aristocratic families sent people to the residences of college students and even talked to them on the way.
Having a hand is a strong advantage.
second.
That is the substantial benefits of all aspects.
Joining a family can bring you easy work, recommend them to become officials, and there are also a lot of gold and silver.
When joining the court, all they get is a small official, and... they must immediately devote themselves to serving the people.
It is impossible for them to join the court to make it easy. After all, even Li Shimin himself worked so hard and had to deal with a lot of government affairs every day.
How could the officials under his command be relaxed?
Compared with the two, the court has no advantage.
"This is really... difficult, harder than the sky."
Li Shimin felt a terrible sense of powerlessness.
These families,
In all aspects, the pressure puts him too much.
Seeing Your Majesty pondering,
Changsun Wuji gave the look and asked Student Lin to retreat, and then said, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"
Li Shimin lay on the chair, shook his head and said, "I'm fine."
He stood up and took a deep breath.
Take a careful look at Changsun Wuji.
"Auxiliary, tell me the truth. How many of the top 30 students nominated last night have joined the family of the Five Seven Hopes?"
"This..." Changsun Wuji was quite hesitant, as if there was a hidden feeling, but seeing Li Shimin's eyes firm, he had to sigh helplessly: "In total, twenty-three students have joined the aristocratic family."
When Li Shimin heard this, he widened his eyes instantly.
this……
This is this!!
There are too many people joining!!
He has obtained very few talents.
So what is the significance of holding this poetry conference?!
After preparing for a long time, I made wedding dresses for the five surnames Qiwang!!
He only got seven talents, and among the seven talents, like the Lin student just now, he lost his way and knew that he was because of the lay Buddhist Jinyang. Maybe the six people were left were more or less because of the lay Buddhist Jinyang, that is, his own family Kuan'er, so he joined his Li family court.
If the lay Buddhist in Jinyang was not Kuan'er last night, but a member of a noble family, does that mean... Li Shimin, even a talented person can't get it!!
anger!!
Extremely angry!!
But there is no way. This is already his only way to get talents. The other way is to recommend. Recommended by most officials from aristocratic families. They recommend them and eventually the aristocratic families inherit their official positions.
"Your Majesty, it's okay."
"Thinking better, at this poetry meeting, only two of the twenty-three students who joined the five surnames and seven hope families joined the Zheng family, and the Zheng family's vitality has been weakened."
"And we have received seven students and have new strength to join, and the gap in major local officials will not be as serious as it was."
Changsun Wugui automatically eliminated those bad troubles, which was quite a bit like stealing the bell.
Li Shimin looked at him with a complicated expression and said seriously: "Auxiliary machine, this won't work."
"One has increased and the other has declined. The Li Tang royal family will eventually become a puppet of the aristocratic family. I must break this situation!!"
"My generation must also be broken, because only my generation has absolute advantages in the army, and can slowly attack it and suppress the aristocratic families. If my generation fails or does nothing, then the next generation, Chengqian or... Kuan'er, does it not know whether it still has the power to suppress the five surnames and seven hopes."
The words fell.
Changsun Wuji was stunned.
It was not because of Li Shimin's determination that he was stunned, but because he heard... King Li Kuan of Chu?!
When His Majesty told the Emperor's generation that suppressed the aristocratic families, the name of the King of Chu appeared. Could it be that... His Majesty has begun to prepare to re-determine the next emperor!?
Thriller!!
fear!!
shock!!
Unbelievable!!
This matter was too shocking, even Changsun Wuji was stunned.
"Auxiliary machine, auxiliary machine, what's wrong with you?"
Li Shimin saw that Changsun Wuji was speechless for a long time and kept speaking.
"Oh, ohoh, your majesty, the old minister was just thinking a lot, I'm really sorry."
Changsun Wuji bowed with apologies.
Regarding the re-establishment of the emperor, this matter is too terrifying and too terrifying. Changsun Wuji dare not think too much. Maybe... Your Majesty is just a temporary mistake?
It may also be that I am too sensitive.
"Yeah, that's fine."
Li Shimin waved his hand and didn't care.
Immediately, my eyes narrowed slightly and said, "Auxiliary, I must solve the dangers of the aristocratic family for this generation."
"I plan to reopen the imperial examination!!"
What!!
Reopen the imperial examination!!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Changsun Wuji stared at him in an instant. What did he hear? He had to reopen the imperial examination. He was because he was dizzy and had his ears wrongly heard?!
"Your Majesty, you...what did you say just now? The old minister didn't hear it clearly!!"
Changsun Wuji's voice was extremely trembling.
He is not allowed to be shocked.
The imperial examinations, these two words seem to be fine, but when combined, they represent a major earthquake!!
Most of the reason for the previous Sui Dynasty was that it was the demise of the imperial examination system!!
The imperial examination, a form of relying on people's knowledge and talents, broke the traditional practice of entering the officialdom by relying on blood relationships.
It is the cake that really touched those aristocratic families.
That's why
During the Sui Dynasty, the aristocratic families disliked Yang Guang very much. When the Sui Dynasty threatened the collapse of the dynasty, they had no idea of ​​a country. Instead, they wanted the Sui Dynasty to perish quickly and applauded.
Moreover, maybe before the fall of the Sui Dynasty, many opponents of the Sui Dynasty received assistance from the aristocratic families!!
Changsun Wuji can be foreseeable.
If Your Majesty really held the imperial examination, those angry families would do what crazy actions would be done.
"Auxiliary machine, you heard it right. I do plan to hold the imperial examination system again."
"I'm afraid... only the imperial examination system can truly break the monopoly of the five surnames and seven hopes, so that I can get truly available talents!!"
Li Shimin looked up at the sky outside the study, his eyes full of ambitions.
"Your Majesty, this...this is not possible!!"
"There are various natural disasters and victims. Our court has not yet dealt with these disasters. If the imperial examination is being held at this time, then... then... wouldn't it be even more troublesome?!"
"Otherwise, your Majesty, please listen to my advice. I believe that we should first solve the disaster victims and the natural disasters in all parts of the north."
"When the processing is completed, we will hold the imperial examination without any worries and devote all our strength to fighting against the five surnames, Qiwang and other aristocratic families. What do you think?"
Li Shimin shook his head and said, "No."
"Although this plan is safe, it takes too long. The reason why I have the desire to be talented is because of the lack of officials and Chang'an City is too short of officials!!"
"There are memorandums every day that tell me the lack of people in my position. Those officials also recommend the next official, but most of them are from aristocratic families, so they detain them and leave them aside and do not deal with them."
"There are many vacancies, so I wanted to use this poetry meeting to get some available talents, but I didn't expect... Most of them were intercepted by aristocratic families. They could gather talents in a short time, but they had to be poor people. Apart from the imperial examination, I could not influence other methods."
Changsun Wuji could understand Li Shimin's difficulties, but this fact was too terrible. This trick in the imperial examination was a double-edged sword, which depends on how to use it.
If used properly, it can certainly weaken the family's heritage.
