Dong Yunyun's father, who was also a former Ming Jinshi before, was an official in Jiangnan before the rise of the Tang Dynasty, but after the rise of the Tang Dynasty, and his daughter Dong Yunyun also became the queen of the Tang Dynasty, this Ming Dynasty official naturally couldn't stand it, and was once arrested by the Ming Dynasty, ready to be escorted to Jingshi to have a Ling Chi or something.

In the end, although he was rescued by the people from the Military Intelligence Department, he really suffered a lot, and after being picked up and brought back, he was seriously ill, and this illness was almost two years, Li Xuan also knew that this person was really sick in the early stage, but then it was nothing more than 'calling the disease'.

Reason?

At that time, the Tang Dynasty was not good, but it had just occupied the eastern part of Guizhou and just started to go south to Guangxi, and in the eyes of many people, the Tang monarchs and ministers, including Li Xuan, actually regarded themselves as bandits.

At that time, Li Xuan's biggest ambition was to occupy the southwest area such as Liangguang and Guangzhou, and to divide the local side.

Outsiders are even less concerned with the Tang Dynasty, even those scholars under the rule of the Tang Dynasty avoided the Tang Dynasty and hid away.

Otherwise, the first imperial examination of the Tang Dynasty would not have been delayed until after the Dingdu Zhaoqing, and then it was held, because the world did not have a good impression of the Tang Dynasty before.

And the Dong family is also a scholarly family, cultivating and reading heirlooms, this idea, like other gentry, is not optimistic about the future of the Tang Dynasty, and they hate the Tang Dynasty from the bottom of their hearts.

But Dong Yunyun's father was a good official, and suddenly a mountain king appeared, robbed his daughter, and caused him to be almost delayed by the court, which is impossible to say that there was no resentment at the beginning.

But the thief ship has already been boarded, even if the Dong family was forcibly pulled on the ship, but since it is on, then don't expect to be able to come down, this opposition is unopposed, but it is unlikely that you let him succumb to death, so Dong Yunyun's father said that he was sick.

However, although this national abbot does not want to see Datang, since they have married other people's daughters, even if they were robbed at the beginning, the treatment that should be given is still indispensable, because this is a requirement of etiquette.

So Li Xuan gave him a viscount, not high or low, and the treatment in other aspects was not bad, well, except for the official!

But recently, he heard that his abbot is not honest and is moving up and down, trying to re-emerge!

For his relatives, Li Xuan is naturally on guard, not because he is afraid that they will seize power or anything like that, but because he is afraid that they will affect the future battle for the prince.

Therefore, Li Xuan's attitude towards his relatives is very subtle, on the one hand, he also reuses some relatives to balance his foreign ministers, such as his uncle Bai Yunqi and Bai Linyi, the distant nephew of the Empress Dowager Bai, are very typical examples.

Bai Yunqi is now the Minister of the Imperial Study, and Bai Linyi is the Chief of Staff of the Guards Operations Department, both of whom can be regarded as high-ranking and powerful.

But on the other hand, Li Xuan restricts them, and the fathers and brothers of many concubines in the harem, Li Xuan is basically not reused.

To put it bluntly, although Li Xuan uses relatives, he uses the maiden children of the Empress Dowager Bai, but for the Dong family and the maiden families of other concubines, Li Xuan's attitude is that he can not use it.

Otherwise, the father and brother of one of the concubines will be powerful, and they will definitely have a negative impact on the prince in the future.

But recently, Dong's father, who has always maintained a 'sick', has been moving up and down recently, and even the excerpts have been given to him a few times, and he hasn't said anything big, just brushing up and having a sense of existence.

At the same time, Li Xuan also heard that Dong's mother has been taking the Dong family's daughters in and out of the palace often recently, nominally to visit Empress Dong, but at this time, people with a little political sensitivity can guess that the Dong family is planning to fight in a roundabout way.

Dong Yunyun is also a smart person, hearing Li Xuan suddenly talk about his father, and then thinking about the fact that his mother and sister-in-law have often been in and out of the palace to see him recently, this is also a guess.

immediately said: "Father, he is an old problem, I guess it won't get better for a while!" ”

After hearing this, Li Xuan immediately said: "Well, go back and give me some ginseng medicinal materials, and then let the imperial doctor take a look, so that the old man can recuperate!" ”

Dong Yunyun said: "Concubine on behalf of my father, thank you for Your Majesty's grace!" ”

"You and I are husband and wife, we are one, what are you doing so politely!" Li Xuan laughed.

The next day, Dong's mother came to the palace to meet again, but Queen Dong said that she was not feeling well, so she disappeared, and rewarded some gold and silver treasures and medicinal materials, and sent a message to Dong's father to recuperate.

On that day, in the courtyard of the Dong family's house, several Dong family men sat on a trip, all frowning!

Everyone is a smart person, so they naturally know what that sentence means to recuperate, simply and bluntly, just stay well, don't toss!

And you don't have to guess to know that this must be what His Majesty meant.

Dong Yunyun is just a messenger!

"Alas, this is the only way to do it for a while, don't go out for the last few days, stay well!" The old lady Dong above said so.

A young man in the narration said, "Third sister, why is she like this, didn't she persuade Your Majesty?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, that's the queen!"

"How else can I persuade you? Your Majesty's character, don't you know, that is a person who speaks the same thing, how can His Majesty's decision be interfered with by a mere woman? Before I waited, I just hoped that Your Majesty would see a hint of affection. ”

"Moreover, if you let Niangniang annoy Your Majesty in order to be a leader, it will be more than worth the loss, it's just that now in a group of relatives, except for the Bai family, the others are the same as our Dong family, don't worry, wait a few years!"

Nowadays, for the Dong family, the most important thing is naturally not what is the official, but the status of the queen Dong Yunyun and the issue of the prince.

The status of the queen Dong Yunyun, it is naturally impossible for any accidents, she is the queen that Li Xuan is marrying, and she is also a queen who shares hardships and tribulations, and came out of Huangzhu Mountain together, unless there is a major event of rebellion, otherwise, Dong Yunyun's queen throne is iron, even if Li Xuan dislikes her, it is impossible to abolish it easily.

And as long as Dong Yunyun's position is maintained, there will be one more prince left in the future, then this prince will be the prince of Yan, the rightful heir to the throne, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and the future emperor.

And this is what the Dong family values the most!

The situation of the Dong family is only one side of many relatives of the Tang Dynasty at present, although being an official is also important, but they hope that their daughter's position in the palace can be stabilized, and then give birth to a prince, and then compete for the position of prince.

Although today's Tang Dynasty has not completely unified China, everyone can see that the possibility of unifying China is very great, once unified, then the Tang Dynasty will be another orthodox central dynasty, and the political status is equivalent to the Ming, Song, Sui, former Tang, Han and other Han orthodox central dynasties.

Therefore, although many people do not understand the various policies of the Tang Dynasty, and even oppose them, it does not prevent them from trying to compete for power and profit in this new dynasty.

Among them, the most typical are those who read, and now all kinds of new books published by the Royal Publishing House of the Tang Dynasty Rite Department are very easy to sell, and many readers have begun to study these new books, and then apply for the Tang Imperial Examination.

And the Tang Dynasty is also reciprocating, this imperial examination is held every year, and the number of admissions is more and more every year, as long as you are willing to learn new disciplines, learn well to participate in the imperial examination as an official, it is stable.

After the gradual reform of the imperial examinations in the previous periods, Li Xuan continued to carry out in-depth reforms to adapt to future development.

The imperial examination and education have always complemented each other, and Li Xuan's reform of education has also been gradually deepened.

After the end of this year's examination, that is, in May, the Tang Dynasty carried out a series of formal reforms in the official education system, and clearly determined the system of official education, which is divided into four stages: primary school, middle school, preparatory department, and university!

The primary school is a six-year course, the secondary school is a three-year course, the preparatory department is a three-year course, and the university school is a four-year or three-year course.

These systems are the modern school system that Li Xuan has always wanted to implement, although the modern school system has subtle differences in various countries, but it is basically inseparable from this general framework, and it can be accepted by all countries in modern society, which naturally proves its superiority.

In terms of specific disciplines, following the example of the young military camp, the former juvenile colleges, colleges of higher learning, etc., various new disciplines such as Chinese language, arithmetic, physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine have been established.

Of course, in primary school, education is mainly based on Chinese language and arithmetic, while others are exposed to some common knowledge, and only in middle school do they begin to learn physics and chemistry.

At the same time, you can still take the exam upgrade in advance.

However, the tuition fee was officially abolished, and the elementary school fee was low, but the middle school began to charge the normal fee.

In order to implement a new education system, the former juvenile colleges and colleges of higher learning were all changed to elementary schools, middle schools, and preparatory departments.

At the same time, we will vigorously build new primary and secondary schools.

Nowadays, the government-run schools in various places have gradually taken shape, and I dare not say that every county, but in every prefecture and prefecture, there are at least multiple primary schools, and each prefecture ensures that there is a middle school, and at the same time, each province is preparing at least one preparatory school (high school).

At the same time, all kinds of private schools are encouraged to transform, and after application, they can obtain the corresponding primary, secondary, preparatory and university qualifications, and vigorously encourage the private gentry to donate funds to set up private schools.

Li Xuan's minimum goal for the Ministry of Rites was that every county must have a government-run primary school, and every prefecture or province directly under the prefecture must have a middle school. Preparatory schools, on the other hand, are offered according to the specific circumstances of each province.

For example, in Guizhou, which is vast and sparsely populated, one preparatory school is enough, but in Jiangnan, ten preparatory schools are not enough.

Recently, Li Xuan is planning to open another university after Guozijian and the Royal Institute of Technology, which will be a new comprehensive university, specializing in recruiting students who have graduated from preparatory schools in various provinces.

Because with the establishment of the school system, the number of primary, secondary, and preparatory schools will increase rapidly, and the number of graduates will gradually increase every year.

When Li Xuan gave a request to the Ministry of Rites, the officials of the Ministry of Rites acted quickly, and within a few days, they took out a plan for Li Xuan to prepare for a new university, and after seeing this plan, Li Xuan was a little crying and laughing, these officials of the Ministry of Rites were really lazy, they actually learned the army's expansion plan, and planned to divide the country into two, and then each of them made up for the disciplines, and turned into a university, that is, one university became two.
