Chapter 1035: Kill the chicken to scare the monkeys
Chapter 1035 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey
Zhuge Liang, Wang Dao, Xie Xuan and other talented people from aristocratic families gathered together to promote each other's business, while Yu Qian, Wei Renpu, Xu Jie and other people from poor families formed another small group to congratulate each other.
Among these people, Wang Anshi and Yu Qian are the most dazzling. One is the number one scholar in literature and the other is the number one scholar in martial arts. This time, the children of the poor family have taken over both of them.
By the way, there is another Jintai, who is also the top scholar in martial arts, and Jintai's background is even worse. He just comes from a commoner's family.
These people are the benchmarks that Li Xiang has set for talented people in the world. As long as you are talented, as long as you can pass the imperial examination, no matter what your background is, I will use you.
Among everyone, Li Zhen was even more energetic. Perhaps because he failed in the imperial examination in his previous life, Li Zhen seemed extremely excited after passing the imperial examination in this life.
And he was the first-A candidate recommended by Xun Yu to Li Xiang. However, due to some considerations, Li Zhen did not enter the first-A this time, but his results were quite good. He won the first-A immediately after the first-A.
Ranked first in the second division.
In this imperial examination, the three fathers and sons, Su Xun, Su Shi, and Su Che, also shined brightly. All three of them ranked in the second place, and their rankings were not at the bottom.
The identities implanted into these three fathers and sons were from a small aristocratic family in Jizhou. Jizhou was Yuan Shao's territory, a complete aristocratic world, and a gathering place for many big aristocratic families.
Although the three fathers and sons of the Su family could serve as officials under Yuan Shao, it was a bit difficult for them to ascend to high positions. Therefore, after hearing about the imperial examination, these three fathers and sons simply resigned and formed a group to come to Luoyang. Apparently they were quite knowledgeable about their talents.
of confidence.
In addition to these people, Wen Yanbo, Gao Gong, Li Hang, Wang Zeng, Li Xian, etc. are also on the list.
As soon as the results of the imperial examination came out, Li Xiang's entire power became a sensation. If the results of the imperial examination spread throughout the world, I am afraid that the shock in other princes will not be small.
The martial arts subject in martial arts examinations is mainly concentrated in aristocratic families, powerful forces, and a small number of civilian talents represented by Jintai. However, in the eyes of various aristocratic families, this subject is not valued.
With martial arts skills and no knowledge of the art of war, they are just reckless men after all.
What all the aristocratic families really valued was the art of war in the civil and military examinations. However, the final result made the aristocratic families everywhere heartbroken.
This is not to say that there are fewer people from powerful families who have won the exam. In fact, among those who have won the exam, children from aristocratic families still account for the majority.
A total of 171 people were selected for the top three Jinshi in the civil examination this time, and a total of 152 people were selected for the art of war subject in the martial arts examination. Among these 300 people, the proportion of children from aristocratic families has reached nearly 80%. The rest are from poor families and powerful people, and among the civilians
You can count the lifters with two hands, and except for Jintai, the rankings are still extremely low.
However, when the final result came out, it still filled families of all sizes with shock and even anger.
Wang Anshi, the first prize winner in the civil examination, came from a poor family; Wei Renpu, the second place winner, came from a poor family; and Yu Qian, the top pick, came from a poor family.
Yu Qian, the number one scholar in the martial arts exam, came from a poor family; Yu Yunwen, who came second in the rankings, also came from a poor family; Zhuge Liang, the third best scholar, came from the Zhuge family of Langya, so he finally had a figure from an aristocratic family.
Excluding the first class of martial arts and the first class of civil and military classes, there were a total of 5 people, but four of them came from poor families, and the families felt that they were about to lose their face.
There are even forces from some aristocratic families who want to join forces to force the imperial examination, publicly questioning the fairness of this imperial examination, demanding that the successful candidates be re-ranked, and even demanding that some candidates who "rely on unfair means" be eliminated from the quota.
Are you kidding? How could Li Xiang agree to such a request? If he agrees this time, wouldn’t the other party have to face him in the future?
Moreover, these aristocratic families that have emerged now are just small aristocratic families, just chess pieces thrown out by the big aristocratic families to test Li Xiang.
If Li Xiang had to compromise in the face of these chess pieces, wouldn't the people behind these chess pieces be in trouble in the future?
Besides, Li Xiang has never been accustomed to these people. If he doesn't kill some chickens and let the monkeys hiding behind know whether Li Xiang's knife is very sharp, then how can he make those monkeys calm down?
Some!
These days, there are a few people who are completely clean behind their backs, not to mention these families. As long as they want to take action against them, they can always find a reason. What's more, even if you really can't find a reason, Nuo Da's floating house can't
Create some reasons?
It is impossible for a big family to use this method to attack them, but these are just some small families after all! Li Xiang doesn't have so many scruples about dealing with them! As long as they dare to stretch out their claws, Li Xiang will dare to kill them with a knife.
Chopped!
Next, a few days later, people from all over the country were beating drums of grievances, suing someone in the county for bullying men, dominating women, and occupying fields..., and even servants of several aristocratic families secretly sued him.
The head of the family is plotting rebellion...
The grievance drum was proposed by Bao Zheng. Li Xiang thought it was a good idea, so he ordered it to be implemented within the five prefectures of Si and Yonghe, Liang. This also gave the people one more opportunity to redress their grievances.
However, since it has not been implemented for a long time, the impact on the people is not great yet, and the effect is still very limited.
But in just these three days, the drums of grievance have been sounded more times than in the past few months combined. Anyone with a discerning eye will know that there must be something wrong here, but as long as you have no evidence, you
There is no way to oppose it, especially when the person you want to oppose is a hero with hundreds of thousands of troops.
As soon as the drum of grievance is sounded, the local government will investigate. With the help of some "good Samaritans", all kinds of evidence can be checked accurately. The light ones are just occupying some fields and robbing a few women, but those serious ones are
Actually, letters secretly loyal to Yuan Shu and his puppet dynasty were found in his mansion. What's more serious, even imitation dragon robes were dug up in his mansion.
The former is okay and not a big deal. But the latter, such as those who secretly contact the puppet dynasty, or even those involved in the dragon robe, can already be defined as rebellion, and these are no small matter!
As a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, Li Xiang said that he must report these matters to His Majesty and all the ministers immediately, and ask them to make a decision together!
In the next few days, the atmosphere in the court became tense. Although those powerful families wanted to protect those people, they really couldn't find a flaw in this matter. Even if they wanted to protect those people,
There is nothing they can do.
What's more, Li Xiang brought this matter up to clearly force them to take action against these small aristocratic families.
