Gongsun Jian said that his mouth was a little dry, and he also poured a glass of water, and poured tea for Sun Siyu, but it was the first time that he said so much to a person he had only met once.

No, it shouldn't be the first time, and there are also the chief of the road and the chief of Chengxin last time, but Sun Siyu, as a big man who moves the world, and has a lot of relationship with General Yu, should not be regarded as a stranger, let alone a shallow person.

Gongsun Jian took a sip of tea, "Actually, it's good for me to say it when I go up the mountain, maybe I can say it at that time, Chen Pingyu doesn't need to be in a hurry to make wisdom, and play a round for Zhao Goutong, and then he two smart people hit it off and lied to me." If it weren't for that, we would probably be talking and laughing right now, Mr. Sun, I'm not saying bad things about them, nor am I complaining to you, to tell you the truth, it's my fault. ”

Sun Siyu chuckled, "You still have the heart to play a round for the two of them now, don't worry, these two are my beloved disciples, I can't bear to do anything to them, at most I will hit a few boards, General Gongsun knows that the pain of these boards is not comparable to the knife edge on the battlefield." ”

Gongsun Jian grinned, this great Confucian is not so difficult to get along with.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Siyu sighed and continued: "Zhao Goutong has become like this, and I am also half responsible, because he is your friend, plus General Yu and I have reached a consensus, I will tell you about the change in officialdom." ”

Gongsun Jian let out a sigh of relief, and waited for the following, he is not that rat-eyed folk child now, now that things have reached this point, it is very unrealistic to blame anyone, it is better to listen to what Sun Daru has to say, and then go back and talk to General Yu.

Sun Siyu took out the two empty teacups on the table, and with a flick of his fingers, the two teacups turned into several pieces of roughly equal size.

Gongsun Jian swallowed his saliva, this teacup pattern is extremely good-looking, there are blue and white porcelain patterns around it, and the tray is made of white jade, a tray with a teacup, the teacup is broken, and the tray can not be used, the two teacups broken by Sun Siyu are likely to be worth enough for ordinary people to eat for a few months.

Sun Siyu divided the teacup fragments into two piles, one pile of blue and white porcelain more, and the other pile of white jade, he slowly said after dividing it: "This blue and white porcelain is more, representing the famous family, and the pile of white jade represents the cold family." ”

"In the current Great Zhou, it is difficult to be an official, and it is even more difficult to be a Beijing official, and if you let Hanmen be a Beijing official, it will be even more impossible. Of course, there is an exception, that is, Yang Liechen, a scholar of the Second Rank Palace, although he was born in a poor family, but he was lucky, he took the line of Guozijian and could enter Guozijian, which is not considered a poor family, General Gongsun, do you know how much silver is rewarded by Guozijian students a month? ”

Gongsun Jian frowned, he had heard of Guozijian, it was also a holy place for reading, but when he went to study, he still had money to take? He shook his head, "I don't know. ”

"Your Majesty, in order to encourage the spirit of the scholars of the country, is getting better and better, and each person in it is rewarded with one hundred taels of silver every month! A whole hundred taels, and it's only a month's time, how many people in our big week can't earn a hundred taels of silver in their lifetime? He Yang Liechen has come to this point, is he still considered to be in the cold? It's been a long time since it was gone. ”

Gongsun Jian nodded, he observed that everyone seemed to be children of ordinary people, and the school uniforms on their bodies were white, even the "Zuo Biography" in Chen Pingyu's hand was scattered, and if one was not careful, this book might be scrapped. In his opinion, Mr. Sun should mean the gap between the poor and the nobles.

Sun Siyu sighed, "There are still many students in my school who can't eat at home, so I'm willing to scrape together one or two halves of silver for the children to study." ”

"One or two halves, it's very little."

Sun Siyu nodded and said: "After paying this little bit of silver, the child's food, housing and transportation in the future will all be covered by the school, but the school does not accept everyone." ”

After saying this, Sun Siyu pushed away the pile of fragments of blue and white porcelain and said: "Today's Beijing officials, except for Yang Liechen, are all deep-rooted old scholars, all of them are influenced by the previous generation, and then operate the next generation to be officials, Your Majesty also agrees with this way, and even some officials' children say that their eyes are much higher than those of the Hanmen scholars, and they can see the root cause." ”

"Nonsense, nonsense! I've seen a lot of gentlemen, and it's the first time I've seen this kind of faceless and skinless person! ”

Gongsun Jian scolded angrily and said, "I probably understand what Mr. Sun means, now the scholars are controlling the change of official positions, and they don't give the Hanmen any room to rise, right?" ”

"That's pretty much what it means, the scholars don't have the ability to grasp the higher grades, the official positions directly appointed by His Majesty, but some of the mainstays of the fourth, fifth and sixth grades are firmly grasped by them, and after helping each other to operate, they fill their own children and grandchildren into that position."

Gongsun Jian's eyebrows became more and more angry, "Isn't there still a imperial examination?" ”

"After the scientific examination, the scholars of the poor family can achieve at most eight or nine sesame officials, and they can go to the seventh grade to burn incense and worship the Buddha."

Gongsun Jian lowered his head and pondered, this group of scholars are all human spirits, if the reason for this is just to let their children and grandchildren enter the officialdom, then it is a bit of a fuss, after all, there are many official positions, whether they are real or fictitious, they are the same, but the reason why they are not looked down upon, those scholars can completely transfer their children and grandchildren to the position of fat difference, and the scholars of the cold family will go to the Qingshui Yamen, do not invade each other, and there is no need to suppress the cold men of the world at all, even their own martial arts can figure out things, Can those officials figure it out? There must be other interests involved.

Gongsun Jian asked his inner thoughts, this matter is still His Majesty's acquiescence, it will never be so simple.

Sun Siyu nodded, "There is a deeper reason for this, let me give an analogy, if General Gongsun is now commanding hundreds of thousands of troops, Guzhou and Suzhou are in war at the same time, and His Majesty has ordered, as long as you can keep one of these two states, which state will you lead the army to reinforce?" ”

"Guzhou, it must be Guzhou, my hometown is there...... That's right! ”

After Gongsun Jian finished speaking, he instantly understood that only after the descendants of the Shi clan took office, whether it was Fei Que or Qing Shui Yamen, it was for the sake of the Shi clan. If a large number of scholars from poor families sit in high positions, and there is no shortage of people like Yang Liechen who are in the same stream as the scholars, and there is no shortage of people who care about the people, then these people will conflict with the interests of the scholars.

Sun Siyu spread out his palms, took the pile of white jade fragments and said: "This is the Hanmen scholars, although they don't have gold and jade, but they will not be ruined, they are often more able to care about the people and do things for the people of the world, and those scholars only think about how to make the patterns on their bodies more beautiful and more luxurious, and these white jade are much less." ”

Sun Siyu took the blue and white porcelain fragments again, "This is the real gold and jade!" ”

Gongsun Jian scratched his head, "Could it be that all the scholars are like this?" Is there really a warrior who works for the welfare of the people? ”

If this is the case, then the small world in Gongsun Jian's heart is about to collapse, and he is desperately trying to keep the country and society on the battlefield, is it possible that it will be so that those nobles of the noble clan can better oppress the people? If this is the case, then there is no need to fight again, after quelling this wave of rebellion, there will be the next wave of rebellion, the hole cannot be filled, then there will be chaos, sooner or later, one day, it is not this kind of wave after wave of rebellion, the 20th Great Zhou Dynasty will rise up all over the world, so that the Great Zhou Imperial Power will die without a place to be buried!

Sun Siyu waved his hand, "As I said, there is no shortage of Xiaoxiao who is in cahoots with the scholars of the Han Sect, and under the banner of asking for the people's lives, it is easier to deceive the people, and I am a little skeptical that Yang Liechen is such a person." ”

Gongsun Jian worked with Yang Liechen, to be precise, he resisted the Xishu rebels together under his banner, at that time he could feel Yang Liechen's feelings for his family and country, but everyone will change, just like Zhao Goutong, Yang Liechen has gone deep into the big dye vat, and he still wants to get out of the mud without staining, then it will be his turn to die without a place to be buried.

Sun Siyu continued: "There are small families in the cold family, and there are also people in the Nashi clan who really think about the people, such as Cheng Chunlin, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, the old man is already Jiazi this year, he just passed his sixtieth birthday last year, and he has been working hard for the country all his life, he and Prime Minister Zhang Xuanlin, Cabinet University scholar Chu Hanlin and called the Great Wednesday Forest, sheltering the Great Circumference is prosperous. ”

Gongsun Jian also felt a burst of excitement in his chest after hearing this, it is the luck of the Great Zhou to have such an official, so that the future that these people in the army can see is not dark, but there is still some bright light to look forward to.

Sun Siyu combined the blue and white porcelain and white jade fragments together, "My purpose now is that it would be better if the scholars and the Hanmen could unite, the Hanmen would not care about the greed of the scholars, and the scholars would not care about the rights and wrongs of the Hanmen, this was the most prosperous situation. ”

Gongsun Jian nodded, saying that it was less money, in fact, in the eyes of ordinary people, it was already a huge amount of money, and the time of precipitation was comparable to that of the scholars of the Great Zhou Guozuo, and the silver in their family was not an exaggeration to describe it as a mountain of gold and silver, and the silver was so much that it could not be described by millions of taels of money, and it was all saved by the ancestors one by one "hard work" until now.

Gongsun Jian opened his mouth and said: "I think it should be one step closer to Mr. Sun's goal now, Your Majesty has probably seen the signs of the Shi clan controlling the officialdom and forming a faction, and wants to make a change, and now it is boosting the strength of the Ji Academy, right?" ”

Sun Siyu nodded, "Not long ago, Guozijian, as the gilded pool of the scholars, was still suppressing the Ji Academy, and even in those years, the imperial examination did not allow the students of the Ji Academy, deliberately looking for trouble, but now it is much better, not only did he send many excerpts of the only books in front of him, but also gave me a unique prefect, which shows that His Majesty has the idea of supporting the Ji Academy, your Guozijian has a second-grade cabinet scholar, and my Ji Gaofu also has a prefect of the grade that does not lose to you, which is considered to be equal. In the future, whether it is a scientific examination or a career, it will be easier to do. ”

Gongsun Jian pursed his lips, "Your Majesty just has an idea?" ”

Sun Siyu laughed, "Actually, it's more because of another aspect, it's about the three realms of heaven and man, three religions and nine streams, Sun is not talented, and he still has some strength." ”

"Mr. Sun is humble again."

Sun Siyu shook his head when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth were a little weird, "You kid has said that I am 'humble and humble' many times, is it possible that I still have to smile heartily with you and say a few vulgar words?" ”

Gongsun Jian was dumbfounded, I didn't expect Sun Daru to joke, but then again, I said that there is really nothing wrong with your modesty, change a person who has no strength here, see if he can be modest, modesty is something that only powerful people can do, and if you don't have the strength to be modest, it is called uninteresting.

However, he still had some bad taste imagining what it would be like if Sun Siyu really said something like "Lao Tzu is amazing".
