"But Your Majesty, if another army is built, what is the scale, and where will the soldiers and horses come from? Is there another call-up? Guo Jia asked.

"Forget about the conscription, 200,000 sailors are enough. Originally, the navy of Gan Ning, Cai Mao and Jiang Qin wanted to expand by 10,000 each to form a new army of 30,000 people, which was handed over to Zhou Yu for training. Yuan Shu said lightly.

"Your Majesty, this is not unnecessary, presumably there is no problem on Xingba's side and Gongyi's side, but Deju's side..."

Gan Ning was demoted, Jiang Qin has a gentle temperament and knows his skills, and the relationship between the two and Zhou Yu is not bad, so they probably have no opinion on the reduction of the establishment of these two. But Cai Mao is different, he and Zhou Yu are old and dead, and even have some contradictions, how to be willing.

Although Yuan Shu's command is united, internal competition and factions still exist, of course, not to the point of forming a party for personal gain, Zhou Yu and Cai Mao belong to different factions. One is from Yangzhou and the other is from Jingzhou, and there are some gaps between them. And the most important thing is that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce are very close, and Cai Yi is a member of the Cai family, so Cai Mao is naturally sensitive to the issue of Yuan Shu's heirs, and the two sides are naturally on the same page.

Yuan Shu didn't have much to do about it, where there were people, there were rivers and lakes, and as soon as the forces under his command were large and the interests were many, various factions naturally appeared, which was inevitable. As long as there are no big problems, Yuan Shu generally turns a blind eye, just like the contradiction between Cai Mao and Sun Jian.

"Hmph, this guy is too greedy, it's good to teach him a lesson, and he is doing things in the west." Yuan Shu snorted coldly and said.

He admired Cai Mao's ability very much, but he really didn't dare to compliment Yuan Shu for this guy's virtue. Although he is very good at being a man, he is too greedy.

At the beginning of Lu Xun's appearance, Lu Kang was very interested in resigning directly, and nine times out of ten, the family under Yuan Shu's command also withdrew because of the fiefdom and compromised, and gave up many interests and official positions in Dachu. However, there are still a small group of people who are still watching, wanting to test Yuan Shu's bottom line, and Cai Mao is one of them.

For such an uneasy brother-in-law, Yuan Shu was naturally extremely unhappy. The Cai family's current power in Jingzhou is greater than that of the Lu family in Yangzhou, Cai Mao has 30,000 sailors, Cai Yi is Yuan Shu's pillow person, and with the support of Yuan Shu, he is now the number one businessman in the world. With such a huge force, how could Yuan Shu be able to tolerate it?

For Cai Yi's sake, Yuan Shu didn't say much, he just hoped that his brother-in-law would wake up by himself. But as a result, Cai Mao pretended to be deaf and dumb again and again, reluctant to spit out what she ate. Yuan Shu planned to teach him a lesson this time, it was imperative to eliminate the power of the family within Great Chu, and no one could stop this matter.

Hearing Yuan Shu's words, Jia Xu, Guo Jia and Xun You's eyes flashed, and their hearts suddenly understood.

Yuan Shu is still quite affectionate, otherwise, with his tough character, he would not directly show anger at Cai Mao's approach, but directly attack.

Of course, this is not surprising to the three of them, after all, they have been serving for several years, and they still have some understanding of this. What made the three of them clear in their hearts was Yuan Shu's resolute attitude, and it seemed that this time Yuan Shu was really determined to clean up the interests of the family in Dachu.

Talking about this matter, Yuan Shu continued by the way: "The power of the family within Great Chu, I have to transplant it no matter what, and Great Chu can only have one voice. Within a month, all the people in the official positions in the Great Chu family with average talent have to be cleared by me, and the autumn examination will be held soon, this is the first imperial examination since the founding of the Great Chu, it must be carried out smoothly, to ensure the rigor and fairness of the examination, and the subsequent official arrangements must also be cautious. All the people in my Dachu region speak with ability and merit, and those who are capable are superior and those who are mediocre are down, and only by clearing out these tumors can we replenish these fresh blood. ”

In the past, there were not enough scholars, so Yuan Shu was able to accommodate so many incompetent people under his command, and most of the people who were incompetent and immoral and greedy for money and rampant in the countryside were eliminated. So many grassroots officials who have not made many political achievements and can only stabilize one side and wait for death Yuan Shu did not deal with it.

And now, there are many students in Jinling Academy and Lumen Academy who have become talents and can become talents. Yuan Shu naturally couldn't tolerate this group of people who ate dry rice anymore, and he wanted to unload the mill and kill the donkey.

"The imperial examination will be arranged by Yuan Hao, and the three of you will assist from the side."

"Huh?" Jia Xu and the three of them were puzzled: "Your Majesty, what does this matter to us?" ”

Yuan Shu snorted coldly and said: "Anyway, you are all idle, since the founding of the country, Yuan Hao has been busy before and after, his feet do not touch the ground, and he works until midnight every day." And the three of you have been doing nothing since you came back from Yuzhou, can't you help them share it? ”

With Tian Feng under his hands such a strong temperament and a straight minister who would rather bend than bend, Yuan Shu naturally had to make full use of it. All important and impartial matters involving offending people and the imperial examination were all pushed onto Tian Feng's body.

After the founding of the Great Chu State, Yuan Shu never stopped tossing, redividing various interests, reforming the system, and finally this matter fell on Tian Feng. To put it bluntly, now the people who want to kill Tian Feng and are resentful of Tian Feng are definitely enough to line up from the east gate of Jinling City to the west gate.

Of course, Tian Feng didn't care about this. If there are more lice, he is not afraid of biting, and there are thousands of people who hate him, and it makes no difference if he adds one or two zeros, and they can't really kill themselves anyway. If you have no desire, you are strong, there are many people who hate Tian Feng, and everyone will get used to it after a long time. I won't have any hatred when I meet again, I can only feel unlucky. However, there are losses and gains, Tian Feng, who has almost become a lonely man in the officialdom, has a high reputation among the people, and countless people who have redressed their grievances have built shrines for him, and his popularity among the people of Dachu is second only to Yuan Shu, which is simply the Dachu version of Bao Qingtian.

Seeing Yuan Shu's bitter and hateful look, Jia Xu and the three of them were also empty-hearted. It is true that they have been paddling a little too much during this time, especially Guo Jia, who has been fighting with the army for nearly a year, and suddenly stopped fighting, and suddenly relaxed. It's been almost a month since I soaked in fireworks venues and pubs every day.

"This time, the three of you each have a question, and you will also be responsible for invigilating. During the invigilation process, you should not paddle the water for me, walk around and inspect more, see what talents are available for me, and make a list of materials that can be made for reference before the results are released. Whoever has the least number of scholars on the list, the worst test results or the worst ability, will continue to follow Yuan Hao to take charge of the next official arrangements. Yuan Shu said viciously.

"No!" Jia Xu and the three of them had to nod their heads. When they lowered their heads, they glanced at each other, and they suddenly felt a sense of well-being.

"Also, if the three of you collude, or if the outcome is unsatisfactory to me, you will also work for me. I will let Yuan Hao arrange for you and supervise you. Yuan Shu, who knows too well the urine nature of these people, is a fluttering sentence.

"No!" Guo Jia and the three of them suddenly pulled down their faces when they heard this, and their faces were gloomy.
