Su Ji's treason caused some influence in a small area, and some young scholars even had opinions on the selection method of the imperial court, among which the majority of the scholars were from the Han family, and now the employment system implemented by the Tang Dynasty is the recommendation system, as the name suggests, only those high-ranking officials and nobles have the right to recommend their own suitable talents, which is really unfair to the Han family.

These voices from the people, Jin Yiwei reported them to Li Jun as soon as possible, and Li Jun immediately summoned Prime Minister Xiao Wangzhi and Imperial Doctor Zhang An to discuss this matter.

When Xiao Wangzhi and Zhang An saw the strip Chen that Li Jun gave him, they couldn't help but be surprised, these brocade guards are really powerful, and even the expressions of the parties involved in the conversation are clearly written, the two glanced at each other, only to see Xiao Wangzhi stand up and say: "Your Majesty, Su Ji is a minority of dog thieves without a king and a father after all, and the old minister believes that the scholars still have their hearts towards Your Majesty." ”

Li Jun nodded and said: "I also believe what the teacher said, but this time the policy of the imperial court is indeed negligent, the teacher thinks, a person who can write this kind of poetry, will he be an incompetent person?" It's a pity that I missed one Su Ji, and if I missed thousands of Su Ji, then I would regret it too late. ”

"Your Majesty, it's the minister's incompetence, and the minister's plea." Hearing Li Jun's words, Sima Da immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty, although it was Li Jun who removed Su Ji from the beginning, but after all, he was the reviewer, and with such a big omission, he still had to come out and take the blame, and Sima Da still understood the truth of "blaming for the monarch".

Li Jun snorted coldly and said, "Hurry up and get out, and I'll settle accounts with you later." ”

Xiao Wangzhi watched Li Junjun and his ministers finish singing and performing, and immediately asked: "What Your Majesty said is extremely true, I don't know if Your Majesty has any good way?" ”

Li Jun smiled and waved his hand, and Zhang Lin stood up and sent a note to Xiao Wangzhi and Zhang An: "Prime Minister, Lord Zhang, this is the method prepared by Shang Shutai, please take a look." ”

Xiao Wangzhi and Zhang An looked at it with relish, and after reading it, both of them frowned and did not speak, the content on this seal was indeed a bit unacceptable, and even Zhang An, who had always acted as Li Jun's dog's leg, remained silent.

Li Jun coughed and said, "Two Aiqing, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Xiao Wangzhi stood there calmly and wandered around the world, looking at Li Jun's expectant eyes, Zhang An secretly scolded the old fox in his heart, and said stubbornly: "Your Majesty, Emperor Gaozu once said: rule the world with Xungui, if this policy is implemented, I am afraid there will be great resistance." ”

Li Jun patted his forehead and said: "Thanks to Lord Zhang's timely reminder, I almost forgot, so let's do it, I am ready to learn the "rule of summoning workers" and set up Gantang, and in the future, first- and second-grade officials and Guannei Hou can also recommend talents, but they need to enter Gantang for three years of governance, as long as they pass the exam, I will arrange official positions, what do the two Aiqing want?" ”

When Xiao Wangzhi heard this, he almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood, this new policy that had just come out, he hadn't figured it out yet, and then he opened his mouth and came out with a "Gantang", which was really uncomfortable.

Xiao Wangzhi stabilized his mind and asked, "Your Majesty, do those who pass the imperial examination need to enter Gantang?" ”

Li Jun nodded and said: "No discrimination, everyone must go through Gantang's three-year political observation period, I don't want to cultivate a group of stupid people who "why not eat minced meat". ”

"Lao Chen understands, he will discuss it carefully with Jiuqing when he goes back."

"Okay, then I won't leave two Aiqing."

After Xiao Wangzhi and the two left, Li Lin asked: "Your Majesty, where does this allusion of "why not eat minced meat" come from? ”

Li Jun waved his hand and scolded: "Fuck off, is this what I dreamed about?" ”

Xiao Wangzhi and Zhang An came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xiao Wangzhi rubbed his forehead and said: "Lord Zhang, the old man is old, and he feels that he can't do it a lot of times, and he has to worry about this matter." ”

Zhang An was happy when he heard Xiao Wangzhi's words, but his face was still not obvious, and he said modestly: "Prime Minister, you are too worried, Your Majesty is still inseparable from you, and Datang is also inseparable from you, so let's take a rest first, and the lower officials will go to discuss with the lower officials, take out the first draft first, and then ask the Prime Minister to help the lower officials check it." ”

"Go, go." Xiao Wangzhi shook his hand tiredly.

Xiao Wangzhi is a member of the Huang Lao School, and the Huang Lao School pays attention to the rule of inaction, obeys the will of heaven, and tutors a whimsical young emperor like Li Jun is the most uncomfortable......

In the evening, Li Jun was comforting Li Moyue, and He Shen hurriedly ran over and said, "Your Majesty, Dazong Zheng Li Yao is asking to see you." ”

Li Jun was immediately depressed, there was no need to think that Li Yao came to the "imperial examination" at this time, he thought that he would be sent away if he didn't see it, but when he thought about it, this old guy could directly meet the Queen Mother, and it would be even more troublesome if the Queen Mother knew about it.

Li Jun patted Li Moyue's head and said, "Moyue, you play with Xiaoqing for a while first, and the imperial brother will go back when he goes." ”

Li Moyue nodded obediently and said, "Brother Huang, don't worry, Moyue will be obedient." ”

Li Jun came to Daming Palace, and before Li Yao could ask for a gift, he held Li Yao's hand and said with a pleasant face: "Uncle, it just so happened that I had something to discuss with Uncle Wang." ”

"Ah, Your Majesty, please speak." Li Yao had to swallow the words in his stomach and said.

Li Yao said with a smile: "Uncle, the King of the East China Sea just died of illness some time ago, but unfortunately the King of the East China Sea has no children under his knees, I am worried about this matter, I don't know if my uncle has any good suggestions?" ”

Li Yao's biggest regret in his life is that his nephew King Hengyang participated in the Six Kings Rebellion and was seized the throne by Emperor Jingtai, so this time Li Yao has been coveting the throne of the King of the East China Sea for a long time, Li Jun looked at Li Yao with a smile, Li Yao said in a dilemma: "Your Majesty, you are the head of the royal family, and this kind of thing is not easy for old ministers to mix." ”

"Haha, then I think there's someone who is particularly suitable?" Li Jun sold Guanzi.

"Oh, who is Your Majesty talking about?" Li Yao asked a little impatiently.

Li Jun dipped his fingers in some water and wrote the word "spring" on the table, and Li Yao immediately said excitedly when he saw it: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

This Li Quan is Li Yao's sister-in-law, Li Jun comforted: "Uncle, in fact, this throne is just right for you, but Emperor Jingtai once passed down a strict decree: The princes and kings who participated in the rebellion of the six kings are not allowed to be crowned kings, and I am also helpless, so I have no choice but to wronged my uncle." ”

"Your Majesty's great grace, the old minister will remember it in his heart." Li Yao said with tears streaming down his face.

Li Jun helped Li Yao up and said, "Uncle, I have given enough sincerity, but I also have some troubles now, and my uncle has to help me." ”

"Your Majesty rest assured, the old minister understands that if it is wrapped up in the old minister, the old minister will let them support His Majesty's decision-making even if he cries as a family."

Sent Li Yao away, Li Jun hummed a little song and drank a little tea, not to mention how happy he was, Li Yao, this old guy has lived in vain for so many years, and he dares to test the lower limit of the ruler, writing a spring is your son, or it may be the unborn child in Concubine Zhao's womb......
