Sikong Mansion.

In a remote and obscure room, a group of family heads are discussing in front of a Hongdu daily newspaper.

"Merit Order?" Yuan Feng's left hand was holding a copy of Hongdu Daily, the green tendons on the back of his hand were uneven, his gloomy face was hideous, and he gritted his teeth and chanted these three words: "Mushan, you are dying!" ”

At the beginning, Hongdu Daily broke out, and he could still deal with it slowly.

But when the order broke out, he knew in his heart that the peace between him and Mushan had been broken, and as soon as the order came out, there was only a situation of endless death between them.

"Yuan Sikong, this thing can't be indulged!"

"This person must die in Mu Yuanzhong!"

"The world's talents are our foundation, if we are swept away by him, our foundation will be lost, and the efforts of our ancestors for hundreds of years can be destroyed!"

"If Mushan doesn't die, the world will not be at peace!"

"At all costs, he must die, otherwise we will not be able to suppress this fang in the future!"

“……”

In this chamber, there are gathered the Guanzhong family, the Hebei family, the Yingchuan family, and the Runan family, which is the family above the imperial court, six or seven percent of the officials, most of them are the lords of the family, at this moment they can no longer be as stable as in the past, one by one, their faces are cold, and the murderous spirit blooms in their words.

A meritocracy order, the world's families crusade.

That's not just talking.

It's a sense of crisis.

A sense of crisis that all heads of families understand.

The masters of the family are all knowledgeable, they have their own lights in their hearts, they can light the way forward, they can know the advantages and disadvantages, they understand their own advantages, in the face of Mushan so naked provocation, how can they be indifferent.

When the puppet is angry, he can still splash blood five steps, they are not puppetry, they are self-esteemed scholars, and their anger can burn the heavens and the earth.

"Calm down, everyone!"

When Yuan Feng heard this, he took a deep breath and calmed down: "This matter needs to be thought out slowly, not in a hurry!" ”

He has been leading the Shi clan for many years, and he is the spirit of all the family lords, and he knows better that his every move can trigger the movement of the entire Shi clan, so although he is angry in his heart, he still forces himself to calm down.

Mushan, who has just entered Luoyang, is easy to deal with.

But today's Mushan has become a general trend, there are civil and military forces on the left and right, and among the nine officials of the imperial court, he has won the support of many people, and it is not easy to deal with him if he wants to, and if he is not careful, I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out.

He said in a deep voice: "Mu Yuanzhong is now a general trend, he not only holds the military power, controls the Gyeonggi important land, but also has the support of Cai Yong, the great Confucian of Shilin, to stabilize Shilin, when today's son also trusts him, the power is inclined to the government and the opposition, the power is extraordinary, if you want to deal with it, it is not overnight, you must think in the long run, foolproof!" ”

"Big brother, I'm afraid this matter needs to be resolved as soon as possible!" Yuan Kui arched his hand and said in a low voice: "The Mu family has established ten talent pavilions in the city, under the influence of Hongdu Journal, many talented people in the world will enter this talent pavilion, within a month, you can recruit the talents of Luoyang, and within half a year, you can let the talents of Guanzhong enter his command, if these people are completely under his door, I am afraid that he will be like a tiger in the future, and if we want to deal with him again, it will become difficult!" ”

No one who can become a scholar is a fool, how can they not know the goodness of talents, but in the past, they held the power of filial piety and integrity, and they did not put people in their eyes, but Mushan broke the rules so much, they were a little flustered.

The world's talents, although a good part of them have been in the hands of the family gatekeepers, but there are also many depressed people, if they are all worshiped under the door of Mushan, they are a little chilled to think about.

"Can we emulate it?" Someone whispered.

Seeking talent in the world, Mushan can be used, they may also be able to use, with their influence, not under Mushan, they can share most of the number, maybe the work of Mushan is just making a wedding dress for them.

"No!"

Yuan Feng heard this, smiled slightly bitterly, and finally shook his head firmly, and said: "We scholars, in the forest of famous scholars, the foundation held is nothing more than meritocracy, so that the world's scholars can be convinced, Mu Yuanzhong has no character and no virtue, he can only act as talent, we can't, read and reason, how can we only be talented and ignore virtue, moral corruption, where is the outline!" ”

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other and were silent, they all knew that what Yuan Feng said was right.

They are readers.

Scholars have always been the most reserved group of people in the world, and they care more about their moral character than their own talents.

Therefore, Makiyama can issue a meritocracy order.

They can't.

"Brother, because of this, so we have no way out, back then, He Jin's power leaned towards the government and the opposition, and we could advance and retreat freely, but now Mushan is powerful, but he wants to dig our foundation, if he doesn't die, the power is one step closer, even if His Majesty can't suppress it, do we still have a way to live?"

Yuan Kui said in a deep voice.

At this point, they don't have a second gentle method at all, only the method of undying and endless, either the death of the herdsman, or the fact that they have respected Confucianism for hundreds of years to form a scholar clan and come to an end.

"Lord Sikong, what Brother Ciyang said is very true, this matter should not be delayed sooner rather than later!"

Yang Biao said in a deep voice: "Mushan holds the military power, it is already difficult to deal with, such as today's son supports him, with Cai Yong for his support, the power is getting stronger and stronger, and it has vaguely surpassed the influence of the general He Jin in the court, although He Jin was strong back then, but he was also a husband, and he has not yet been supported by the people in the forest, but Mushan now has Cai Yong, a Confucian support that we can't refute, and we must not indulge in indulgence!" ”

"Kill, must be killed, if you can't kill it, how can you make the court stable!"

Someone said fiercely.

Yuan Feng's expression was silent, squinting slightly, the killing intent in his heart had been suppressed again and again, but at this moment, under the continuous advice of the people around him, he couldn't suppress it, a pair of pupils, red as fire, and killing intent was dripping.

"To kill this fang, you need to be justified!"

Yuan Feng said softly.

Mushan is not an ordinary person, today's Taifu, but the name of the emperor, not the Mujing back then, can be pinched at will, this is a violent bear, violent, but a fierce beast that can destroy them all.

"Lord Sikong, it is not difficult to kill this fang, if you can get the name of the Son of Heaven, it is justified, and the people of the world will not say anything at that time, even if someone has objections, they will rush to the Son of Heaven!" The head of a family in Yingchuan, ranked as the official of Jiuqing, his voice was gloomy and he said coldly.

"But the Son of Heaven may not kill him!" Someone said.

"Who said that!"

Yang Biao said coldly: "Today, although there is little and no more things, but he is not an ordinary person, he has been in charge of the world, but don't Mushan suppress the imperial power, how can there be no complaints in his heart, but I am afraid that there is no chance of winning, Fang Hidden and not sent, as long as we get the edict of the Son of Heaven, we can behead this fang and Luoyang!" ”

"Yes!"

"If you can get the call of the Son of Heaven, killing this fang will be like searching for something!"

Everyone nodded their heads.

"Everyone is united, why worry about big things!"

Yuan Feng also made a decision, since he is not dying, then he has nothing to worry about, the family has been dominant for hundreds of years, how can it be bad in the hands of a mountain and wild horseman, say that he is not convinced, then kill him and obey: "If the mountain is not removed, the world is difficult to be safe, the old man used to think about the stability of the court, let him be one or two, he is so inch-inch, bad for the peace of the world, mess with the foundation of the court, the old man can't tolerate this fang!" ”

"Please give the order!"

The crowd bowed their hands, and their voices were in unison.

"Yang Biao, you go and discuss with Da Sima secretly, I need to borrow soldiers and horses from outside the city, presumably he will not refuse us!" Yuan Feng said confidently.

"No!"

"Sima Fang!"

"In!"

"The big and small things in the city, it is difficult to escape the eyes of the county government, although the county soldiers are not good at fighting, but the streets of Luoyang are all known, everything in the Taifu Mansion, including every move between Mushan and Mujing, you need to keep an eye on me, don't make mistakes!"

"No!"

"Ciyang!"

"In!"

"Send a letter, let the highway lead the troops, approaching Nanyang, if you don't move, it will be thunderous, Nanyang is the nest of Mushan, it must be uprooted, and no hidden dangers can be left!"

"Good!"

“……”

Yuan Feng ordered in an orderly manner, and a plan to secretly besiege and kill Mushan had already taken shape......

——————————————————————————————————————————

"Mu Yuanzhong, you are too presumptuous!" After the dispersal of the dynasty on this day, Cai Yong blocked the corridor of the palace where Mu Shan was, blew his beard and glared, and looked at Mu Shan quite angrily.

In the court meeting just now, it can be described as a great chaos between the six countries, and the roof was almost overturned.

The reason is a merit-seeking order.

This order for meritocracy has torn the hypocritical faces of all the courtiers in the court, and those who do not stand in line today will be purged, and then it will become a struggle between the two parties, an endless dispute.

"Cai Shangshu, what's wrong with it!"

Makiyama said with a smile.

For this scholar, he can't afford to provoke him, and now he is ready to turn this scholar into his own family, and he is even more polite.

"A good order to seek talents, seek talents in the world, only move by talent, but forget the lessons of morality, it is already not the way of Confucianism, and you are still doing such a thing at this juncture, it is even more hateful, so provoking the family gatekeeper, it is tantamount to provoking war, do you want the world to fall into the fire and water?"

Cai Yong said coldly.

When he saw the first glance of the meritocracy order, he understood that between Mushan and the family gate, there was already a situation of endless death.

It made his heart tired.

He did not hesitate to sacrifice his reputation and joined the pastoral party, which was nothing more than wanting to maintain a peace, but this peace could no longer be maintained, and after tearing his face, only war remained.

"Cai Shangshu, if you say that, I don't agree, I Mushan is loyal to the Han family!"

Mu Shan said coldly: "But since there are people who can't tolerate me, how can I be arrested, you and I have been overwhelmed these days, it is nothing more than the right to raise filial piety, not in our hands, since I can't take the power of filial piety, I can raise talents, it's always okay!" ”

He didn't say that this was Mu Jing's idea, because he was the head of the herding party, and he should be the Taifu Mushan.

He should bear all this.

"You're playing with fire!"

Cai Yong suppressed his voice.

"This court can't just be said by them, without my share!" Mushan said domineeringly: "The order to seek talent has been issued, the water that has been spilled out cannot be recovered, they want to fight, I will fight to the end!" ”

"You know, what the consequences will be this time!"

"Of course I do!" Mu Shan said word by word: "But I am not He Jin, I am Mu Shan, when the court is the prince, Mu Shan!" ”

"Hey!"

Cai Yong sighed, he already knew that this matter was difficult to change, and immediately said: "You need to promise me not to use troops in Luoyang!" ”

"Don't worry!"

Mu Shan nodded: "As long as they don't use the sword soldiers, I won't break the rules, although I am in charge of the army, but I am still loyal to Your Majesty, without Your Majesty's order, how can I send troops!" ”

If you can not use the troops, it is better not to use the troops.

But if someone doesn't follow the rules.

He Mushan will not be captured, this Luoyang City is already the Luoyang City of the Mu family, he wants to see, in this Luoyang City, who can take his Mushan's life.

There is a tacit understanding between them about this matter, and if they continue to talk about it, it will be meaningless and it will not change anything, but Mushan has something you want to talk to Cai Yong about.

"Cai Shangshu, the daughter's talent is the best in appearance, and my son is also famous, you see ......"

"Get out!"

Cai Yong glanced at him coldly: "Mu Yuanzhong, let me tell you, you have died of this heart, Mu Longtu's little rabbit cub jumped out very much, feminine, treacherous, complicated thoughts, how many means of secret manipulation, how can I not know, even if I stay in the boudoir, I can't jump into the fire pit!" ”

"This is a difference!" The corners of Mu Shan's mouth twitched, although he also thought that what Cai Yong said was very correct, but his own son, he was in pain, but he couldn't tear down the stage in front of outsiders, he said in a harmonious voice: "Cai Shangshu, you pat your conscience, in this Luoyang City, there are countless high-ranking officials and nobles, and there are many young talents, but there are a few people who can compare to the intelligence and intelligence of my children......"

A chatter wants to ask for a kiss.

An impatient want to refuse.

In the end, the two fought in the corridor of the palace for more than an hour, and then broke up unhappily.

————————————————

The outbreak of the merit-seeking order has formed a storm.

And in the eye of this storm, it is natural that there are ten well-arranged Qiuxian Halls in Luoyang City, each of which has been specially modified, based on the large courtyard with nine entrances and nine exits, and is properly arranged, distributed in the southeast, northwest and northwest of Luoyang City.

East of the city, East City.

A talent museum.

Mu Jing stood on the third floor of the wooden building in the middle courtyard, with his hands behind his back, his eyes were lifelike, looking at the people who kept pouring in at the gate, the corners of his mouth slightly raised a smug smile, these are all talents.

"You're idle!" Xi Zhicai came up from behind, and he was weak.

He dominates everything in the Talent Pavilion, identifies talents, and places talents, which are his recent work, and he is almost so busy that he can't get out of his body, and he can't sleep enough for two hours a day, and he looks a lot haggard.

"I'm not idle!" Mu Jing smiled and said, "Each has its own division of labor!" ”

"In these years, there are many talents, but there are also many people who fish in troubled waters!"

Xi Zhicai said.

"You must have the mentality of buying horse bones!" Mu Jing said: "I will accept talents, not talents, I will also accept them, understand!" ”
