Chapter 421: The Way of Selecting Officials

She thought that this list would be dominated by the children of the family, perhaps there would not be many officials who were clearly close to the family, and there would not be many officials who were born in the family at all, but the officials who were secretly supported by the family or had an inextricable relationship with the family must occupy the absolute majority.

The background of these people is not necessarily known to the imperial court, but she knows most of them. However, this list is clearly beneficial to the forces of Tian Sansi and Jiang Dexu. Judging from this list alone, Yao'er is clearly Jiang Dexu's person or Tian Sansi's person.

The families put Yao'er on the throne and gave her so much power, just so that she could serve Tian Sansi and Jiang Dexu, who was born in a family and became his own faction from the family?

A list, Ouyang Yuyan held it in her hand, looked at it over and over again, every time she saw a name, she carefully analyzed the background of this person in combination with the information she had, and she looked at this list for more than an hour. Haven't put it down yet.

Yuan Yuqian had been standing behind him, and the slender bamboo outside the window would occasionally sway in the autumn wind, but he never moved. But after more than an hour, he couldn't hold it back. Yuan Yuqian coughed lightly, and tried to keep his voice very soft: "Eldest prince, is there anything strange in it?" ”

"Something is wrong! It's a big surprise! ”

Ouyang Yuyan had never spoken in this tone before, but now that he has stepped down from the altar, it seems to be much easier than he was at the beginning, and he is actually humorous for a rare time.

Ouyang Yuyan nodded to the list in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Yao'er must be thinking about something, before he finds out his purpose." We must not act rashly, this is our last chance, and we must be cautious! Now we just have to wait and see what happens. Static braking! ”

Ouyang Yuyan said "brake with static", and the room really fell silent. Ouyang Yuyan stopped talking, Yuan Yuqian didn't ask anymore, Ouyang Yuyan continued to study the list with it, wanting to find some clues from it. But the silence lasted only a moment, and was broken by a wah-wah baby cry.

The child's cry is loud and powerful, accompanied by a cry. There was also a middle-aged woman's low coaxing voice: "Oh, oh, good baby." Don't cry, my aunt will play with you, look! Grunt, grunt. Is this ball rolling fast? ”

The child's crying stopped. But the wooden ball hit the wall and made a "dong dong" sound, Ouyang Yuyan threw the list on the case in annoyance, and yelled angrily: "Tell her to take the child away!" ”

……

In the mansion, little Yu Nianen was lying in the cradle, with a pair of big black eyes staring round, dancing with his hands trying to snatch the red bow ball from Aunt Yao'er's hand, and crying to the baby in the bachelor's mansion. His little mouth suddenly flattened, and he also cried out loud with a "wow".

Xiao Zhuo was enthusiastically fiddling with a freshly planted child's clothes. Hearing the cry, he hurriedly turned his head. Yao'er hurriedly raised her hands and said innocently: "It's none of my business, I didn't bully him!" She said as she let go of her hand, and the red ball slid quickly into her sleeve.

"Give me the ball!"

Xiao Zhuo pounced viciously and helped her baby son grab the ball, she took out the red ball from Yao'er's sleeve and said angrily: "Are you still a little in shape, you know how to bully my son all day long!" ”

Xiao Zhuo bent down, stuffed the ball into her little baby's hand, and said softly: "Baby, it's my aunt who is not good, and the baby ignores her." The ball is baby's, oh, hold it. ”

The little guy held the red ball in his two fleshy little hands, and after only a split second, the ball slid to the side. The little one struggled to swing his little chubby arms like lotus roots, and his two chubby legs scurried around like frogs, and he laughed as soon as he touched the ball.

Yao'er wrinkled her nose at him hatefully, and said angrily: "You stinky boy, it's a shame that your aunt holds you all day long, so stingy!" I also complained to your mother, and my aunt will ignore you anymore! ”

The stinky boy pulled the ball to his chest and smirked at her heartlessly......

Yu Nianen is the boy born to Ning Xiaozhuo that day, the little boy's nickname is Xiaoba, according to his Laozi Yu Qi's statement, "Lao Tzu is Yu Qi, then he is Yu Ba, and if he has a grandson in the future, he will be Yu Jiu", thinking about it is also drunk.

……

Ji Jun didn't drive Liu Sili to sit in the study, and after a long time of fun, he jumped up like a big dream and called loudly: "Wanyou, hurry up, hurry up, bring civilian clothes, the old man wants to change his clothes and ask someone to prepare a vehicle." The old man is going to meet the old fairy Zhang! ”

He has just received an edict from the imperial court and has been promoted to the assassin of Jijun.

This impossible good luck actually fell on his head.

The letter of appointment from the imperial court has come down, and that Zhang Daoren has become a prophecy.

If it is said in his heart. That Zhang Daoren's reputation for hexagram magic and physiognomy was still a little false, and there was still a possibility of falsification in the various magical legends about Zhang Daoren that circulated in Ji County. Now they have all disappeared with this edict of the imperial court.

This Zhang Daoren is a real strange person in the world!

If he fakes, it is impossible for this sloppy Taoist to let the court and the queen accompany him to cheat!

Lin Xiwei, who was originally alive and vigorous, actually suffered from a serious illness overnight, and the imperial court really ordered him to be promoted to Jijun Thorn History, he really met a living immortal!

Liu Sili is still dressed up last time, and Wan You, the little girl in the study, is still pretending to be the younger generation in his family, one old and one young, and hurriedly left the other driving mansion and ran to the mysterious view of Zhang Daoren's order.

"Mysterious and mysterious, mysterious and mysterious, wonderful and wonderful!"

Liu Sili looked at the dilapidated plaque on the lintel of the Taoist temple, stroked his palms and sighed, and secretly made up his mind to reshape the golden body of the Sanqing Daojun and renovate the Taoist temple. After making a vow, he couldn't wait to enter the Taoist temple.

When Liu Sili entered the Taoist temple, Zhang Daoren's daily trigrams have been calculated, and there is no one waiting there at the door.

Liu Sili arrived at the door, dressed neatly, and gave the little guy a look, and the little guy hurriedly stepped forward to call the door: "Is Old Fairy Zhang here?" My master, please meet! ”

Liu Sili hurriedly pulled away from the small house, glared at him, and turned to the slightly closed door. Accompanied by Xiao Shili, he said: "Disciple Liu Sili, please see Zhang Lao Immortal!" ”

"Hehe, it's Lord Liu, please come in!"

An elegant voice came from the room, Liu Sili hurriedly agreed, and took the servant into Lao Dao's residence.

Lao Dao was sitting on a futon and meditating cross-legged, and Liu Sili hurried two steps into the room. "Porphy" knelt down in front of him, kowtowed, and said: "The disciple is ignorant, and he has no eyes." I don't know the face of the old fairy, I offended a lot last time, and I invite the old fairy Haihan! ”

When Lao Dao saw him salute and worship, he didn't feel surprised. Hurriedly got up to avoid it. Picked him up and said in a loud voice: "Master Liu, please hurry up, the poor road is just a glimpse of the heavens, and you can't worship the nobles, Lord Liu must not give a big gift anymore, it will be a blessing for the poor road." ”

Liu Sili said repeatedly: "Deserve it, deserve it!" The old immortals are profound, and they are strange people in the world. Where can't you stand the worship of the disciples! ”

Zhang Laodao shook his head again and again, and said, "Don't deserve it!" Master Liu, you are Wenchangxing. In the future, he will be the Taishi, a great nobleman under one person and above ten thousand people, how to be a benefactor and worship the benefactor! ”

"Ahh

As soon as Liu Sili stood up, when he heard this, his knees weakened, and he knelt down again......

……

On the day of the completion of Tianshu, the imperial court was going to hold a grand celebration, which had already been arranged, and the entire ceremony was personally arranged by Prime Minister Jiang Dexu, and the scene was very grand.

In addition to the civil and military officials, the famous ministers who have retired from the office, the famous people in Beijing, the relatives of the king, and the meritorious heroes of the honorable qing, there are also many Siyi chiefs who also came to congratulate.

At this moment, the towering and spectacular Tianshu stands outside the end gate, and the whole city can see it, a pillar of optimus! The golden dragon and the unicorn are lifelike, like the clouds and the fog are like the edge pillar up, the eight big characters of "Great Qi Wanguo Song De Tianshu" are shining, standing at the bridgehead of Tianjin can be seen clearly.

Before the queen arrived, the Department of Teaching had already arranged for beautiful virgins, dressed as scattered flower girls, wearing flowers on their heads, red on their eyebrows, and wearing tassels, with their slender waists exposed, gold dust at their navels, and a pair of snow-white feet, although their bodies were tender and petite, they actually had a charming style.

The goddesses are carrying bamboo baskets full of small silk flowers, dancing gracefully, while swaying the petals all over the sky. There are also some teenagers from the teaching department, all dressed as golden boys, holding cigarettes and incense burners in their hands, which are distributed throughout the celebration site, so that the whole square is filled with sandalwood.

A group of monks dressed in robes and with solemn expressions stood neatly in front of the magnificent Tianshu, and the sound of chanting gathered into a wave of air that made people's heartstrings vibrate. Countless Lin'an people, dressed in neat and bright clothes, came to the front of Tianshu in groups, bowed and worshipped, and then retreated to the side, looking at the ......

The queen had sent for ten carts of copper coins, and they saw that the mighty warriors were carrying boxes of copper coins on their backs, and the heavy boxes of money were bending their waists. When the ceremony was over, the queen would have the coins thrown down one by one, so that many of the people who came today were strong laborers of the family.

Preparations are also being made inside the palace. The edict of amnesty has been prepared. The Chinese language for the sacrifice to heaven has been written with gold dust by Shangguan to be prepared, and it is all served in a tray covered with red silk and held by the attendant eunuch.

The general He Zhimiao and other generals all had bright armor and were dressed in military uniforms, looking majestic.

Mu Shangxuan has not had a chance to enter the palace for a long time, as a protector mage, marquis and general, he finally entered the palace on such a grand day today, but unfortunately he did not have the opportunity to see the queen, he could only stand there, occasionally chatting with Yao'er, more often just looking left and right impatiently.

The buzzing sound of the head to ear always permeated the Jinshui Bridge, until the queen's chariot appeared, and two pairs of royal chariots actually appeared, and the civil and military officials, the prince's relatives and relatives looked solemn. I thought it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who got a pair of royal chariots.

When the royal chariot arrived in front of them, they found that the queen in a grand crown dress was sitting on the royal chariot in front of them, and on the back chariot was sitting on the chariot was Mrs. Mu wearing a red peony and crown dress.

"Yao'er, talk closer!"

The auspicious time is still a moment, the palace gate has not yet been opened, and Tian Qiniang's steps have to stop here for a while.

Yao'er walked up to Tian Qiniang's imperial chariot and said, "Chen Yao'er, I've seen a saint." ”

Tian Qiniang asked with a smile: "The border of southern Xinjiang is the important land of the country, and it is impossible to do without a shepherd for a day, so it is urgent to elect officials in southern Xinjiang, how did you do this?" ”

Yao'er crossed his hands and said: "The ministers follow the king's orders, and they are screening day and night, and the primary election will end in a few days. ”

"Hmmm......"

Tian Qiniang smiled slightly when she heard this, and asked again: "What is the standard for the election of officials?" ”

Yao'er didn't understand why she was testing herself in public, "Four Virtues" and "Twenty-seven Most" have always been the criteria for selecting officials in the imperial court, and a small official can memorize these regulations, of course she can't say these things rigidly according to the regulations, so she hesitated slightly, and replied loudly: "The minister serves as a heavenly official, and chooses a scholar for the king, adhering to three principles, the first is loyalty!" ”

There were not only civil and military officials, but also relatives of the king and chiefs, and the queen ignored others, and only called Yao'er to come forward to compare, and in the hearts of the hundred officials, they naturally had their own interpretations. They all think that the queen handed over such an important and fat messenger to Yao'er as an elector in southern Xinjiang, which shows the queen's favor for her.

Yao'er said: "The minister thinks that the most important thing for a courtier is loyalty!" If you have a loyal heart, you will not have any big mistakes. On the contrary, the stronger the talent, the greater the disaster! ”

This sentence really went to Tian Qiniang's heart, the queen was trying to delay the time and take the test at will, but at this time, she couldn't help nodding frequently, with a happy look on her face. 、

Yao'er said: "The minister is the king's candidate, and the second one is talent." The king is wise and martial, it is a rare prosperous monarch in ancient and modern times, hundreds of officials and people, and they are not loyal to my king, and if you want to say that this loyal courtier, it is everywhere. On this basis, there must be people with official reputations, political achievements, and talents! ”

Tian Qiniang bowed her head and said, "Hmm! So what is the third? ”

Yao'er said: "The original officials in southern Xinjiang, many of them were dismissed because of incompetence, the reason for this is not disloyalty to the king, nor lack of talent, the ministers carefully figured out, the reason why they did not do their part well, many of them are because they are not familiar with the place, and because of their personality, they can't put down their bodies and communicate with the local chiefs in southern Xinjiang.

Among the king's courtiers, there were many talented people who were qualified to serve as shepherds, so the ministers first selected many cadres, and then selected those who had traveled extensively, had rich experience in governance, and had a hearty and kind temperament from among these people, and thought that the king should choose them! ”

Tian Qiniang laughed, turned her head and asked Jiang Dexu, who was standing at the head of the hundred officials: "What does Xiangye think?" ”

Jiang Dexu knew that among the candidate officials screened out by Yao'er, his people and Tian Sansi's people were half and half, and they were the most powerful among all forces, and he was extremely satisfied with Yao'er, and when he heard the queen's inquiry, he immediately replied: "Although Changshi is young, he is a capable talent, and he is the king!" ”

Tian Qiniang laughed. (To be continued......)
