Chapter 58
After not going to court for seven days, Mo Yan returned to the court again, sat on the chair under the hall, and within a few days, everyone keenly found that the queen had changed, and she had begun to fight for power, and the relationship between the emperor and the queen had also changed.
For example, important personnel appointments, personnel transfers in the army, most of the queens did not interfere much in the past, and they only watched them fight coldly, or occasionally said a few words to His Majesty.
It's just that now that the queen has intervened, she has used her people, and even took the initiative to deploy personnel in the army, and many official positions have been replaced by Duan Li in the past two years, and now they have been replaced by her people.
Although His Majesty also acquiesced to the person who replaced her in the end, they still clearly felt that the emperor and queen were out of harmony, and the hatred in the eyes of the queen sometimes looked at Her Majesty, and they were all shocked when they saw it.
Just like now, His Majesty wants to expand the selection of talents next year, so that ordinary Hanshi have more opportunities to serve the country.
Zhao Xiujin's old-fashioned faction is naturally strongly opposed, but the queen actually stood with him and put it right, who didn't know that Zhao Xiujin and the queen were originally mortal enemies.
Yuguo continued the system of selecting officials from the previous dynasty, which was a system of officials recommending and then appointing Duan Li after the assessment, which had many drawbacks.
It's just that Duan Li personally assessed a small number of people after all, and they are generally appointed and dismissed from important official positions, and it is impossible to appoint officials across the country, he has to ask about knowledge before appointing, most of them are recommended by officials, he looks at the reason for the recommendation, and then appoints them directly.
In this way, after a long time, officials will form factions, the phenomenon of buying and selling official positions will become the norm, and the country will also be destroyed, and the former dynasty is a good example.
Therefore, since Duan Li ascended the throne, he has been trying to change this incomplete talent selection system, so as not to let Yu Guo repeat the mistakes of the previous dynasty a hundred years later.
Duan Li wants to change, it will inevitably touch the vested interests of some people and cause their opposition, such as Zhao Xiujin, since he became the prime minister, he has taken charge of the government affairs of Yuguo and recommended the promotion of a large number of people, and now there are many faces in the court that are recommended by Zhao Xiujin, let alone places he can't see outside the court.
Today, he put forward this bill, and he didn't think that it could be implemented immediately, but revealed the rumors, let them know the emperor's intentions, and figure out the gains and losses.
It's just that this bill is too involved, and as soon as it was proposed, except for a few officials born in a poor family, most of the former ministers and people born in the family strongly opposed it.
The family is the cradle of national talents, and most of the talents are in hand, so the world is royal, but it is secretly controlled by the family, they don't even care about the change of dynasty, no matter who is replaced as the emperor, it is indispensable for the family to come out to govern.
There is a popular saying among the people that the royal glory is a hundred years, and the family will not be extinguished for a thousand years. What Duan Li wants to do is to break the situation of the family's monopoly of talents, and break the pattern of the family's monopoly on the court.
In fact, even if the talent selection system is expanded now, the family will not have much impact for a while, after all, talents cannot be cultivated overnight.
Duan Li only cut off the situation that they continued to monopolize the dynasty after a hundred years, weakening the power in their hands, but did not really destroy the existence of the family, which was like a country and China, and also gave them a way out.
Now is the time for them to choose, whether to choose not to be so greedy, to give up the power that does not belong to them when the strong man breaks his wrist, or to grasp the little power in his hand like gluttony.
The family, it is impossible for him to get rid of them all, and the choice he makes this time will also determine whether they will stay or stay in the Yu Kingdom, or completely erase them, and the choice is in their own hands.
It's just that the queen, who has always represented the poor family, also stood up to oppose it, which really surprised many people, and this matter is of course over this time.
After retreating from the court, all the people in Hanyuan Hall were gone, leaving only Qin Xiangzhong and Mo Yan, Qin Xiangzhong looked at her worriedly, as if he had something to say.
Mo Yan, who lowered his head and pondered, looked up at him and said, "It's all gone, why don't you leave?"
"Niangniang, your recent actions are so big, is it really good?" Qin Xiangzhong asked worriedly, His Majesty was not worried about the military power in her hands, so after ascending the throne, he has been committed to weakening the military power in her hands and installing his people in the army.
Mo Yan used to show that in order to gain his trust, and at the same time show that she had no desire to fight for power, she basically gave Duan Li a military position that she wanted.
It's just that now Mo Yan is changing people back with such frequent actions, and he doesn't even cover them up, just a military order to change people, is it really good? Shouldn't it be more secure to slowly try it?
"I know what you mean. I just want him to know why he, a newly enthroned emperor, was able to enter and leave my army as if he were in his back garden. Mo Yan looked at the dragon chair above and said faintly.
What else could it be, naturally she cared about him, connived at him to constantly cut off the military power in her hands, and finally he crossed the river and demolished the bridge.
It's just that at this time, she wouldn't have thought that if it wasn't for Duan Li's connivance, how could she regain power so quickly?
Mo Yan looked sideways at Qin Xiangzhong, and said word by word: "I want him to watch the power in his hands disappear little by little, but he is helpless and powerless." ”
Qin Xiangzhong was shocked by the hatred in her eyes, "Niangniang!" called her a little uneasy, and then worried, worried that she would regret it in an irrational situation.
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry. Mo Yan retracted his gaze and said with a smile, as if it was Qin Xiangzhong's illusion just now.
"At the court meeting just now, did Niangniang really disagree with the expansion of the official selection system?" Qin Xiangzhong knew that she was unwilling to continue the previous topic, so he asked the topic of today's court meeting, in fact, he felt that Duan Li did the right thing, and he also agreed, but Mo Yan objected, so he silently did not stand up and agree.
"Of course not, I also think his mention is very correct. Mo Yan said.
"Then you are still" Before Qin Xiangzhong finished speaking, he was taken over by Mo Yan.
"Oppose it with Zhao Xiujin, right?" Mo Yan looked at him with a smile, saw Qin Xiangzhong choked by her, and then laughed: "This matter is not a one-touch thing, there is still a long road ahead!" I oppose it now, one is to let this matter slow down and not affect our plans, and the other is to add some problems to Duan Li, he had the upper hand in Zhao Xiujin everywhere in the government before, and he also had our support, and now we have defected, see if he can still have a smooth sail." ”
Speaking of this, she changed her tone again, "Besides, this thing doesn't have to be done in his hands, it's not better for us to do it ourselves." ”
Qin Xiang thought about her words again, and felt that it was right, this was a matter of merit, and it would be better for them to do it themselves.
After thinking about this, Qin Xiangzhong said goodbye to her: "Niangniang, it's not too early, I'll leave first." Qin Xiang made a gesture and left, and after leaving the Hanyuan Palace, he looked back at the back of Mo Yan, who was still looking at the dragon chair, and left with a sigh.
Do she know that her love is deep, so she hates it so decisively, and does not leave a way back for each other!
