Chapter 1731 Planning the Imperial Examination
"Haha, haha, good death!" At this time, Yan Xing laughed excitedly, very cheerfully, Lin Feng saw this, but smiled faintly, only to see that at this time, another herald's voice came: "Report! The head of the Lin family was assassinated, and his death was extremely miserable, and his body was dismembered." ”
"What, the head of the Lin family was also killed!" If only one clan patriarch was killed, it would not make the ministers so excited, but when they heard that the two clan chiefs were killed, the ministers were shocked, and looked at the two herald soldiers in horror, but today is destined to be an extremely exciting day for them, and after a few breaths, there was another rush of footsteps, and there was no need to report, and they rushed in directly, and there was only one kind of person.
"Report it, report it!" Hearing this, everyone's faces changed, and they looked at the herald who ran in with a strange expression, and their eyes were full of strangeness: "What is the matter this time?" I saw that the herald soldier paused slightly, knelt on the ground, and said to Lin Feng with a trembling voice: "The head of the Wang family has been assassinated!" The soldier's voice was indeed trembling, this was the most shocking news he had received from a herald all his life.
"What, the head of the Wang family was also killed. Hearing this, Yan Xing's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but exclaim, with an expression of disbelief.
"Report!" Another herald's voice rang out, and when he heard this, the ministers felt a pang of confusion in their minds, and some did not react.
"Who was killed this time?" At this time, Zhu Siguang looked at the herald with an anxious face and asked, the latter took a deep breath when he heard this, looked at Zhu Siguang excitedly and said, "The head of the Lu family was killed on the concubine's bed, and his head was missing. ”
"What, this time it's actually the Liu family. Hearing this, the ministers became restless, but they didn't expect that there was really a head of the family, and then a head of the family was killed.
However, Lin Feng listened to the news, but his face was indifferent, as if he had already known that these were about to happen, very calm, this scene, fell into the eyes of Yan Xing and Zhu Siguang and other ministers, and immediately made them extremely frightened, looking at Lin Feng with a shocked face, at this moment, they seemed to know one thing, that is, Lin Feng had long been clear about the killing of these seven clan patriarchs, otherwise how could he be so calm.
Not long after, the patriarchs of the six families were all assassinated, Lin Feng's face was indifferent to this, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyebrows: "There is still the Lu family that guards the two stone pillars of the central and western towns. However, Lin Feng did not receive the news of the assassination of the Lu family patriarch for a long time.
"Your Majesty the Emperor. At this time, Zhu Siguang bowed to Lin Feng cautiously, but he didn't hear Lin Feng's painting, he subconsciously looked at Lin Feng, and suddenly saw that Lin Feng's brows were deeply locked, and he seemed to be very dignified, in this regard, Zhu Siguang was slightly shocked in his heart, until finally, the familiar sound of hurried footsteps came again, and he suddenly saw a trace of relief from Lin Feng's face.
"Report!" The figure of the herald reappeared, only to see that the herald was wearing red armor and appeared in Lin Feng's sight, and then knelt down on one knee in front of Lin Feng in the main hall, and bowed to Lin Feng with a fist: "Your Majesty the Emperor, the head of the Lu family was assassinated and killed tonight. ”
"What? The head of the Lu family is also dead!" Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened and they exclaimed, it seemed that the head of the Lu family was assassinated, which was more shocked than the other six heads of the family who were assassinated, which made all the courtiers extremely shocked, Zhu Siguang's eyes were even more incredulous Look at Lin Feng who had a smile on his face, looking at the confident smile on Lin Feng's face, Zhu Siguang couldn't help but take a deep breath and think: "All this is true?"
"Okay, let's go down and get the reward. Lin Feng waved his hand slightly at the herald and said, the latter heard this, kowtowed excitedly and thanked him and withdrew.
"Ladies and gentlemen. At this time, Lin Feng stood up, looked at Zhu Siguang and the other old courtiers with a light smile, everyone heard this, and then they woke up from the dream and withdrew, looking at Lin Feng with a shocked face, they are not stupid, and they are all smart and clever, at this time, how could they not guess that this matter has something to do with His Majesty the Emperor in front of them, after hearing Lin Feng's voice, the courtiers hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty the Emperor." ”
"I'm going to hold a imperial examination. Lin Feng said lightly, and when the ministers heard this, their faces became extremely grotesque, and they looked at Lin Feng in surprise one by one.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, what is the imperial examination?" At this time, Zhu Siguang looked at Lin Feng with a puzzled expression and asked, Lin Feng heard this, looked at Zhu Siguang with a faint smile and said: "The imperial examination is to hold an unprecedented large-scale assessment in the whole country, and the main test is literature, politics and science, as well as force. After Lin Feng finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Siguang, who heard this, and immediately looked at Lin Feng with a wry smile.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?" Zhu Siguang looked at Lin Feng with a worried face and said, Lin Feng frowned slightly when he heard this, looked at Zhu Siguang unhappily and said, "What's wrong?" Lin Feng was a little unhappy, Zhu Siguang paused slightly, looked at Lin Feng and said with a wry smile: "Now that our Qinglong is in the kingdom because of the bane of the clan, seventy percent of the talented people in the world are controlled by the clan, and it is not easy to hold the imperial examination." ”
"Rest assured, they don't dare to have any opinions. Lin Feng looked at Zhu Siguang and said with an indifferent and confident face, Zhu Siguang saw Lin Feng so confident, and immediately looked at Lin Feng curiously and asked, "Why is His Majesty the Emperor so sure that they will not get in the way and prohibit their subordinates from participating in the imperial examination?"
"Because they don't have the guts. Lin Feng's face froze, his eyes flashed, and he looked at Zhu Siguang with murderous anger and said word by word.
When Zhu Siguang heard Lin Feng say this, he was stunned for a moment, looking at Lin Feng strangely, his eyes were full of shock, and after hesitating for a moment, Zhu Siguang looked at Lin Feng and said, "Is it because of the fact that the seven patriarchs of their seven great patriarchs were killed?" After Zhu Siguang finished speaking, he looked at Lin Feng again and again.
When Lin Feng heard this, he smiled faintly, glanced at the courtiers present and said proudly: "I'm not afraid that you know, what you guessed in your heart is exactly that, they, hehe, the seven clans, in my eyes, are just fish and meat on my chopping board, and I will eat them at any time when I am hungry." ”
"What!" Hearing Lin Feng say this, Zhu Siguang's face was very moved, Yan Xing was the first to react, only to see him blushing very excitedly and looking at Lin Feng kneeling and kowtowing and saying, "Long live Your Majesty the Emperor, long live, long live!" Yan Xing's heart was surging: "This is the emperor of our Qinglong Kingdom, His Majesty the Emperor has the spirit of Emperor Taizu, and our Qinglong Kingdom is about to shine." ”
When the ministers saw Lord Yama kneeling, they hurriedly knelt down, and suddenly, above the Dragon Palace, the sound of long live was endless, at this time, Lin Feng raised his hand slightly, pressed it slightly, and said to the ministers: "Let's all be even." After hearing this, the ministers hurriedly stood up from the ground and looked at Lin Feng with excited eyes, Lin Feng at this moment, in their eyes, was like an almighty god, let them all worship from the bottom of their hearts.
"What the imperial examination wants is to select young people from the people to learn from the people, so that they can serve the country. Lin Feng looked at the ministers lightly and said.
"You know, now the whole country still relies on the supply of most of the talents, hmph, such a person into the court, how can I use it with confidence? So I want to break this rule, from now on, I think that no matter whether you are a relative of the emperor or a relative, if you want to enter the court as an official, you need to pass the imperial examination as the only way to enter the court and the opposition, otherwise if I find out who uses the relationship to open up a way for my clan. ”
When Lin Feng said this, the murderous aura in his eyes flashed, and his gaze swept coldly over every courtier present, and every courtier present felt the murderous atmosphere transmitted by Lin Feng's eyes, and they were so frightened that they shrank their necks one by one, and they didn't dare to look at Lin Feng's eyes.
"The ministers keep in mind that they will never disobey His Majesty the Emperor's instructions!" the ministers knelt on the ground and shouted tremblingly.
"Old Zhu. At this time, Lin Feng waved his hand slightly, looked at Zhu Siguang and said, the latter was slightly stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "What does His Majesty the Emperor command?" Lin Feng smiled slightly, looked at Zhu Siguang and said: "I am going out for a few days, and in the next few days, the preparations for these imperial examinations, as well as the affairs of the imperial court, will all be handed over to you and Old Lord Yan to take care of." ”
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Zhu Siguang was subconsciously stunned for a moment, then reacted, and immediately looked at Lin Feng excitedly and shouted: "Ah, Your Majesty the Emperor, this is absolutely impossible, you are a golden body, how can you go out at will." Zhu Siguang looked at Lin Feng very eagerly.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, by all means. When the ministers heard Lin Feng's words, they were immediately frightened and exclaimed, and hurriedly knelt down and begged Lin Feng.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, this is not child's play, you are the lord of a country, the master of the Qinglong Kingdom, how can you leave easily, if something happens, what will happen to the country?"
"Old Lord Yan!" When Lin Feng heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes helplessly and looked at Yan Xing, he paused slightly, looked at Yan Xing, Zhu Siguang and other ministers and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry, I'm not going alone." Lin Feng smiled faintly, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"Then His Majesty the Emperor must at least bring a thousand royal dependents and three thousand guards. At this time, Zhu Siguang looked at Lin Feng eagerly and said.
"I don't need to be so complicated. Hearing this, Lin Feng frowned slightly, and continued with some impatience: "I want to go to the Seven Great Clans. ”
As soon as Lin Feng's words fell, the entire Dragon Hall was silent, deathly silent, Lin Feng looked at this scene, and immediately smiled indifferently and said, "I want the Seven Great Clans to kneel down and submit to me." A trace of terrifying murderous aura flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, and that murderous aura was "Those who don't obey die!"
"Your Majesty the Emperor, these seven clans have long been eyeing our Imperial Court, if you go so rashly, wouldn't it be too risky. ”
Zhu Siguang looked at Lin Feng very anxiously and said, when Lin Feng heard this, he smiled faintly and said indifferently: "I haven't taken this danger into my eyes yet." A hint of pride flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, and after being silent for a few breaths, the ministers looked at Lin Feng quietly.
"Alright, that's it. Lin Feng looked at the ministers impatiently and said, when everyone heard this, they had no choice but to give up, looking worried.
"Retreat. Lin Feng said lightly to the ministers, then turned around and left, watching Lin Feng leave, Zhu Siguang and Yan Xing hurriedly chased after him.
"Second Elder, you better go, needless to say, I won't be in any danger. Lin Feng turned his back to Yan Xing and Zhu Siguang and said lightly.
