Chapter 591: The children have reached school age
In 193 A.D., the second year of the Han Restoration, the capital of the Han Dynasty was in the Jinyang Palace.
"Wen Ruo, how did we live last year?" Liu Tao asked thoughtfully.
"Isn't it normal to pass? Very ordinary work, very ordinary subordinates, and then very ordinary end of the day. Xun Yu was puzzled why Liu Tao would ask that.
"No, why do I feel as if I was suddenly eaten again last year, and it's already over when I come to my senses." Liu Tao's expression was very entangled, did he feel that time passed quickly because he was old, or was this time really stolen by someone?
"Maybe it's because you're too busy?" Xun Yu thought for a while, "After all, after taking over Jizhou and Qingzhou, there are a lot of things that need to be done. The post-war reconstruction, as well as the development of the Western Regions, did not even have time to attack Yanhan after the autumn harvest. ”
The Ministry of Officials is the biggest obstacle, after all, there is a shortage of manpower, and the entire court is operating at a high intensity this year. This means that overtime has become the norm, and Liu Tao must work overtime frequently.
So when I came back to my senses, time passed by day by day, and a year passed in the blink of an eye, as if someone had stolen it.
"Also, it seems that the more power you have, the more people you need. If Yan Han had been beaten down last year, it is estimated that he would have to die of exhaustion now. Liu Tao said with emotion.
"No, it won't!" Xun Yu replied slowly, "We estimate that we will resign early......
"Hehe......" Liu Tao didn't know how to answer at the moment. It seems that he has indeed squeezed them hard, and they have all resigned collectively. Thinking of the collective resignation of the six Shangshu, Liu Tao didn't dare to imagine it.
"Speaking of which, Your Majesty, has the list of examiners for this imperial examination been decided?" Xun Yu asked, he should have come from the ministry to ask, but he was very busy over there, so please ask him who came to report by the way.
"So not only has it been a year, but even the time for the scientific expedition has arrived?" Liu Tao suddenly reacted, this time inevitably passed too fast!
"Your Majesty, you haven't made a decision yet, have you?" Xun Yu's head was suddenly full of black lines, if there was such a thing.
"Do you want to be served by the five Shangshu other than the Hubu Shangshu?" Liu Tao thought about it, and he wouldn't admit that he really hadn't thought about it.
"That's the case again...... Xun Yu complained faintly, "Your Majesty, Lu Shangshu and Wang Shangshu are not young, and it is estimated that they will not be able to bear the long-term marking work." ”
"It's easy!" Liu Tao replied, "Shangshu is not available, so the waiter will serve as the waiter!" ”
Xun Yu was speechless, and sure enough, he still got himself into it...... No, no, it doesn't seem to be in the examiner sequence.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Immediately thought that the final result was spread, and it was estimated that the other five Shangshu and Shilang would all take the blame on him.
In other words, you don't have to be an examiner, but you have to offend the other five departments...... Xun Yu felt that the pressure was even greater.
The key is that Xun Yue, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is his brother, and if he and the two examiners are both from the Yingchuan Xun clan, it is indeed not decent. Perhaps, this is also the reason why His Majesty did not let him be an examiner.
If you simply offend, you will be offended, anyway, it is not a matter of a day or two for the household department to offend the ministries......
As the department in charge of the money bag of the Han Dynasty, they do not have a shortage of funds for various ministries, and even every time the various budgets reported by the ministries are reviewed and reviewed. In the past few years, even if it is official, the household department is the least popular among the six departments.
So the matter passed in a flicker, and the rest was left to the six Shangshu to have a headache.
"Speaking of which, do you want to do another martial arts by the way? Or is it better to open an officer school directly? Liu Tao thought about it, this question began to think about it two years ago, but it was really not stolen by anyone last year?
Military academies have certain limitations, that is, there is a high probability that the students enrolled are children of military families. Especially with the increasing number of military families, it is very likely that their children will also join the army, and the result is that officers are gradually monopolized by these military families, and it is becoming more and more difficult for ordinary people to be promoted.
Even if you are promoted, you will basically become a son-in-law or wife/daughter-in-law of a military family.
The problem is that even if you start martial arts, it is useless, and the meaning of martial arts is to select outstanding talents from the civilian sector and supplement them to the army. But ordinary people who have not been in the army and have no military experience, unless they are born with academic tyrants and natural powers, how can they pass the test for those children from military families?
"It seems that it's better to open the academy......" Liu Tao sighed, at most, when taking the exam, the admission score should be stipulated.
Just like in the imperial examination, the admission score of the children of official eunuch families, or military families, is higher. At the same time, the admission score from ordinary people is lowered to increase the proportion of officers from ordinary families.
It's just that his own generation can do it, and whether the next generation, or the next generation, can do it, Liu Tao can't guarantee it.
As he spoke, he took out the "Book of the Great Han Heaven" that he was still compiling, and wrote down his feelings in it. This is just a draft, and it's very messy with scribbles on it. It's nothing, anyway, I'll have to write a formal one later.
After dealing with the day's affairs, Liu Tao left the palace and returned to his house.
I remember that around June and July last year, Lu Zhi came forward to propose that the capital be moved back to Luoyang. At the time, he said he would seriously consider it, at least for the first time he had not resisted moving the capital so much.
After all, Luoyang has been repaired very well, Cao Cao's performance is very good, as for the back, the six departments concealed their small actions to repair Luoyang, and he did not pursue it.
It can be seen that the ministers all hope to move the capital back, and they can't be too uninteresting. And after going down, you have to go out of the palace to return to your own house, which is indeed a bit troublesome.
The reason why his attitude really loosened was that in the past two years, Jin Yiwei had arrested three groups of people with ill intentions.
Obviously, when it was difficult to win against him on a frontal battlefield, many people began to choose some unseemly means after knowing that the house he lived in was actually outside the palace.
The deep palace would indeed be a cage, but at least it would protect him and his family.
"After defeating Yan Han, forget about moving the capital......," Liu Tao muttered, and then walked into the house.
"Father, father!" At this time, Liu Cong and Liu Qiong walked over and were about to throw themselves into his arms. The latter smiled, grabbed the two of them, and made a gesture of intimacy. Speaking of which, his beard is quite long now.
Because there is no shaving relationship, it will not sting, just like a brush, rubbing it on the face and itching.
"Father, we want to study!" After some intimacy, Liu Cong took the lead in saying, "I want to go to school!" ”
Liu Tao was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, a son and a daughter, unknowingly seven years old (imaginary age).
