Chapter 1348: Cabinet Storm
Li Qiong watched Kong Kun deflated on the spot, an inexplicable feeling of comfort, and in an instant, her heart and spleen were soaked!
Share the world with the scholars and doctors, hehe, the military ministers and nobles have to prostrate at the feet of the civil ministers?
Phew, these gang of rotten Confucians, they can't manage their finances, and they can't stabilize the country with their martial arts, so what's the use of it? die
In the process of Li Zhongyi's change of dynasty, the ministers not only did not play a role, but repeatedly dragged him back!
Wang Pu and Li Gu have opposed Li successively, which actually means that the Wenchen group would rather collude with the Tartars than surrender to the feet of Li Zhongyi, a copper stinker.
Watching Kong Kun being trained, he also had a lot of refreshment in Ruan's heart. He and Li Qiong are both from the old military ministers, if the world's major politics are all in the hands of Wenchen, the descendants of the broken family, how can they get ahead?
The kid who gave Li Zhongyi the nickname of the copper stinker should have died!
However, Li Zhongyi was extraordinarily lenient, not only did not kill him, but let him continue to be chic in the world.
Liu Jinshan looked at Kong Kun who was depressed, and couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart, not to mention what it was like!
In terms of origin, Liu Jinshan is a proper Hanmen family. If it weren't for the coincidence that he got acquainted with Li Zhongyi by chance, Liu Jinshan would not only be impossible to enter the cabinet as a minister, but would have been sinking into the ranks of his subordinates and unable to extricate himself!
Today's cabinet, Prime Minister Li Qiong and Ci Xiang Cong Ruan, are both meritorious old nobles, and they have an innate rejection of the Wenchen group.
Although Kong Kun took refuge in Li Zhongyi early, he is a descendant of Kong Sheng Miao after all, and he is the only one in the cabinet who was born as a scholar.
The butt determines the head, the background determines the thought, Kong Kun hopes to continue the national policy of respecting Confucianism, which is understandable!
It's just that what Li Zhongyi said is right, the reason why he won the country was not because of the existing group of scholars, but on the soldiers of the three armies who swore to follow him to the death.
"Immediately fight the world, dismount and appease all the people." Li Zhongyi said lightly, "However, what I need is a scholar who is really talented in governing the country, not a scholar who only knows the so-called Four Books and Five Classics and does not know the tax per acre of crops!" ”
Li Zhongyi's words were a little awkward, but the ministers present were all understanding people, so they naturally understood Li Zhongyi's extraneous voice.
To put it bluntly, in a word, Li Zhongyi governs the world, relying on scholars, but no longer respects Confucianism!
For thousands of years, the tradition of respecting Confucianism and depreciating the official traditions of each family was completely broken by Li Zhongyi.
For a while, even Li Qiong and Zhi Congruan had straight eyes, and they were all stunned!
"Ridiculous, ridiculous!"
Kong Kun's speculation, once it became a reality, he couldn't stand the torture of the cruel reality at all, and even spoke wildly in front of Li Zhongyi.
Liu Jinshan couldn't help but sigh secretly, in the cabinet, in fact, there was already a three-to-one situation, and Kong Kun didn't even notice it in the slightest.
I don't know whether to praise Li Zhongyi's brilliant and far-reaching layout, or to sigh for Kong Kun's sluggishness?
Li Qiong looked at Kong Kun, who was extremely emotional, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, Li Zhongyi arranged Kong Kun as the prime minister, not because he was good at governing the country, but to show an attitude to the world's readers: as long as you stand in the right line, you will not hesitate to reward you!
Zhe Congruan is not very familiar with Kong Kun, but he knows that Kong Kun dares to speak wildly, which is actually Li Zhongyi's habitual fault.
Li Zhongyi often hangs on his lips, don't sinner people because of words, don't engage in words!
That's what he said, and he did it, and even the kid who scolded him for being a copper stinker was forgiven, not to mention anything else?
"Come on, Kong Xianggong is sick, help him return home quickly, and recuperate his body."
Li Zhongyi is the founder of the country who has experienced a hundred battles, not to mention his eloquence, the trivial things that he talked about in front of him can be easily disposed of, that is, who dares to turn the sky upside down?
"Your Majesty, don't despise Confucianism, Your Majesty ......" Kong Kun woke up suddenly, suddenly took a few steps forward, grabbed Li Zhongyi's robe sleeve, and refused to let go.
"What are you doing? Kong Xianggong is really sick, and he was sent to the side hall to rest! ”
After Li Zhongyi made up his mind, Gao Qiang and Zhang Sanzheng didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, and the two of them made a decisive move together and set Kong Kun out of the inner study.
Looking at Kong Kun's back being taken out, Li Qiong couldn't help nodding secretly, even if Kong Kun roared rudely in front of him, Li Zhongyi saved enough face for Kong Kun from beginning to end.
The respect of the prime minister, the courtesy, must be respected!
Li Zhongyi was able to tolerate Kong Kun's wild words, which in itself shows that he really respects the decency of his ministers.
"Let you all laugh, just the four of us can know about it."
When Li Zhongyi said this, it was equivalent to issuing a gag order, and it also saved enough face for Kong Kun!
The truth that things are slow and round, who doesn't know the ministers of the cabinet, and who doesn't know?
"The old minister obeys the holy commandment!" Li Qiong was the first to stand up and publicly promised that she would never shake out today's events.
"Lao Chen'an dares to disobey the holy will?" Zhe Congruan is not a stupid person, he immediately expressed his intention to bow his head to his ears.
"Kong Kun has been so tired lately, I believe that he will recover as usual after only a few days of recuperation!" Liu Jinshan not only did not fall into the trap of Kong Kun, but instead saved face for him.
Seeing that the ministers were so knowledgeable and interested, Li Zhongyi couldn't help but smile slightly, he was the founder of a hundred battles, not a frightened emperor.
Although the position of prime minister is respected, is it said that it is more honorable than the founding king?
Therefore, Li Zhongyi chose to teach Kong Kun a lesson that was neither big nor small, and ordered someone to put him out, instead of dropping his sleeves and flashing people!
Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene had completely eased up, he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister's breakfast is too little, and his stomach is so hungry that he is screaming, and lunch is waiting for the emperor to give you." ”
Li Zhongyi knew in his heart that Ruan Cong was old and ate very little at every meal, so he would never be hungry.
"Okay, don't leave at noon, just stay in the inner study." As soon as Li Zhongyi's words came out, the atmosphere at the scene was even more relaxed.
After eating lunch and drinking tea, Li Qiong took the lead in saying goodbye, and Li Zhongyi agreed with a smile.
When the three ministers went out, they actually saw Kong Kun standing by the roadside, as if he was fine, and he couldn't see any difference on his face.
As in the past, the four ministers of the cabinet entered the palace together and left the palace together. If it weren't for the parties present, they wouldn't have seen that a play was staged in the vertical arch hall just now, a storm in the teapot!
Liu Jinshan walked at the end of the ministers, he didn't look at Kong Kun's back, but his heart was clear: it must be that Li Zhongyi took the opportunity to change clothes and taught Kong Kun a hard lesson.
Otherwise, people want faces, trees want bark, and with Kong Kun's strength to make trouble, I am afraid that he will stop the prime minister.
Li Zhongyi didn't care what the ministers thought, after he took a break, he changed into civilian clothes, led Zhang Sanzheng and Gao Qiang, and went to the examination room of miscellaneous subjects - the secret pavilion together.
Due to the explicit provisions of the system, after the door of the secret pavilion examination room is closed, it is forbidden to open the door again in the middle of the examination unless the examination is completed.
Li Zhongyi's identity is different, he has already obtained the key, and after he entered through the back door alone, he left Zhang Sanzheng and Gao Qiang to watch the door.
Wang Dahu was already waiting at the back door, and when he saw Li Zhongyi coming, he hurriedly welcomed him into the examiner's room.
"Third brother, today is the first day of the exam, and it only took someone two hours to answer all ten questions." Wang Dahu pointed to a test paper on the table and made an introduction with a smile.
Li Zhongyi nodded, walked over, picked up the test paper and took a closer look, and couldn't help laughing: "I actually answered it correctly." ”
A stone in Wang Dahu's heart finally fell to the ground, although he was the chief examiner, he didn't know the questions of clear calculations, so he could only wait for Li Zhongyi to read it himself.
"Where is that man?" Li Zhongyi turned his head and asked Wang Dahu with a smile, Wang Dahu pointed to the courtyard next door and introduced, "The time for him to hand in the paper is too early, according to the rules, he can't let people out halfway, and it is inconvenient to leave him in the examination room, so he can only find a small courtyard alone and let him stay temporarily." ”
Li Zhongyi nodded, Wang Dahu's arrangement was very proper. Li Zhongyi entered the examination room privately, although it was not in accordance with the rules, it was reasonable.
After all, the entire country belongs to his old Li family, if he wants to promote anyone, it's not a matter of one sentence, can he cheat for the candidates?
Wang Dahu is different, he is the chief examiner of this miscellaneous provincial examination, if he is not cautious in his words and deeds, he will inevitably be criticized.
The candidate who handed in the paper first in advance, surnamed Qin and named Zhengrong, was a miscellaneous subject of Kaifeng Prefecture. Looking at his resume, he is actually a businessman of three generations of his ancestors, and he is the current shopkeeper of the silk village.
In the two Song dynasties in history, merchants were allowed to participate in the imperial examinations.
When Li Zhongyi issued the edict to open Enke, he emphasized this point in the edict. Therefore, Qin Zhengrong, the big shopkeeper of the silk village, can actually participate in the provincial examination of miscellaneous subjects.
The examination paper of miscellaneous subjects is a question written by Li Zhongyi himself, and the difficulty of these ten questions has basically reached the level of the third year of junior high school in later generations.
However, this Qin Zhengrong not only handed in the papers in advance, but also answered all the questions correctly within two hours, which was really Li Zhongyi's surprise.
According to Li Zhongyi's original idea, these ten questions, with the current level of mathematics, will take a day to get results.
Who would have thought that Qin Zhengrong would send a big surprise to Li Zhongyi. This shows that there are a lot of talents in the people, and the key depends on how the rulers select them.
Li Zhongyi stayed in Wang Dahu's main examination hall until dark, but no one handed in the papers in advance.
There was no point in continuing to stay, Li Zhongyi took a pen on paper on a whim, wrote ten more math problems, and asked Wang Dahu to hand them over to Qin Zhengrong to answer.
"Third brother, there's something wrong with this, right?" Wang Dahu held Li Zhongyi's new question in his hand, and because he was the examiner, he was a little hesitant after all.
Li Zhongyi smiled slightly and said, "The first name of the miscellaneous department is none other than Qin. Since it is an additional question that I personally made, even if the additional test is done, all the examples that have been submitted in advance will be sent to them to do. ”
