Chapter 500: Ma Zhou
Therefore, Li Chengqian never felt that his two younger brothers would threaten his throne.
During this time, the friendship between the three brothers actually made him feel very intoxicated. The feeling of trusting each other is so beautiful.
Therefore, Li Chengqian is also willing to treat his younger brothers with the most honest attitude.
The big changes in the East Palace can't be hidden, so some people who are really too ruthless to be cleared instigated the less important members of the court of their own family to try to play a trick and impeach the prince for wanton behavior.
In response to the prince's wanton change of the East Palace system and layoffs, the court was divided into two distinct factions. One faction is the support faction led by Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji and others.
They believed that the crown prince's move was correct, and the layoffs in the East Palace reduced unnecessary expenses in the imperial court, and at the same time changed the atmosphere of the lazy East Palace.
The other faction is the opposition led by Wei Zheng, Kong Yingda and others. Wei Zheng is a subordinate of the old prince, and he believes that the failure of the old prince is actually related to his own failure to receive a good orthodox prince education.
Kong Yingda, on the other hand, believes that the official position system of the East Palace is a law left by the ancestors, and it cannot be changed arbitrarily, not to mention that this change was made by the young prince himself.
Age is Li Chengqian's hard injury, and Wei Zheng and others are not good at saying anything because the theory involves the old prince. And 1 Kong Yingda felt that as long as he held on to the unchangeable law of his ancestors, he would be invincible.
The people on both sides had their own opinions and quarreled in the court.
What changed this pattern was a recital, a recital of Zhonglang General Changhe.
In the recital, the theoretical characteristics of the two parties are explained in detail, and the interests and disadvantages of the two parties are also written, and the matter is analyzed from the perspective of an outsider or even an arbiter.
This recital made the quarrel in the court disappear, and the people on both sides, because their theories were found to be inadequate, could not oppose the final point of this recital.
"The matter of layoffs is imperative, but the streamlining and appointment of relevant official positions must be discussed by the imperial court."
Even Li Chengqian himself has no way to oppose this recital. For her, it was already good to take the opportunity to clear those guys with long tongues out of the East Palace.
As for the appointment of the East Palace official?
He doesn't often live in the East Palace, what's the use of setting up those things?
In the court, Li Shimin looked at Chang He's recital and took a look at it comfortably.
To be honest, this matter made him feel that his head was big, and both parties made sense, but there was no way to compromise. Now that there is this twist, it can be regarded as solving his urgent need.
But
Li Shimin closed the recital and asked Chang He, "This recital, the beginning of the truth is the Tao, and there are quite a lot of quotations from the classics, presumably, this is not written by you as a martial artist!" ”
Chang He said respectfully, "Your Majesty, this piece was written by Wei Chen, but the content was written by a guest below. ”
"Doorman?"
Li Shimin looked at the piece again, and to be honest, this piece is indeed very good and very literary. At the same time, it can also reflect the author's full economy.
Such a person is already a good talent, if he does have great talent, he can't give this person a chance to be an official.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin said again, "Don't tell the truth to your guests, just say that I want hundreds of officials to write a book to discuss the gains and losses of the government." I want to see if this person also has his own opinions on the government. ”
Chang He received orders.
The next day, Li Shimin got Chang He's guest name Ma Zhouzhi's composition. There are a total of 20 articles in the recital, and each of them is particularly in line with Li Shimin's intentions.
Such a person, if he is reduced to Chang He's family and is just a doorman, it is really a waste!
"The decree summons Ma Zhou to enter the palace, and I want to test him in person."
The palace is still far away from Chang He's home, not to mention, a mountain village man goes to the pilgrimage, how can he freshen up and dress up, and verify whether there is a weapon or something on his body, it is troublesome to die.
In order to let Ma Zhou appear in the court as soon as possible, Li Shimin sent four eunuchs in a row to pass the decree, exempting some unnecessary processes and directly letting Ma Zhou enter the palace.
It didn't take long for a scholar with loose clothes, thick hair tied up, still wet, and extremely emaciated to enter the main hall.
As soon as he saw this guy, he didn't know the rules, and he didn't say anything about his appearance, but obviously the eunuch had stopped him, but he still took a few steps forward.
Just because there is a shadow of the pillars of the main hall in that place, it can be protected from direct sunlight.
This was very rude, but Li Shimin was not angry at all, and reached out to stop the nameless who wanted to reprimand him.
Although his behavior was rude, he finally knew that this was the imperial front, and he was meticulous in his etiquette of kneeling on the ground.
"Grass people Ma Zhou, King Ma Bin, I have seen Your Majesty."
Li Shimin looked at him a few times, saw that he was thin, and asked, "Ma Zhou, I see that you are so thin, but what is the disease?" ”
Ma Zhou nodded, "Your Majesty, the grass people suffer from thirst-quenching disease, and they have been seeking medical advice for many years, but there is still no improvement." ”
Thirst quenching is actually diabetes, but the ancients didn't know much about this thing, so they thought it was good to make up for it.
So, Li Shimin said, "Spread the decree, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will choose Korean ginseng and other supplements for Ma Zhou." ”
As soon as these words came out, the courtiers were impressed by Ma Zhou. This guy is lucky, the first time he faces the saint, he can be rewarded.
Moreover, it seems that the emperor is very fond of this person and wants to reuse it
Some people can't help but take a lot of interest in Ma Zhou.
Ma Zhou didn't expect that he could get the emperor's attention, after all, he was a down-and-out scholar. Although he was arrogant and arrogant in his hometown, when he arrived in Chang'an and the court, he had no arrogant capital.
Therefore, he kowtowed to Li Shimin again and again, "Caomin, thank Your Majesty for your favor!" Thank you, Your Majesty! ”
Looking at Ma Zhou, who reacted violently and was eager to repay the emperor's kindness, Li Shimin was suddenly very happy.
Moreover, the cold front about the officials. In particular, it is very correct that local officials should be selected from poor students.
Ma Zhou's highlights of the government are all based on reality and to the point. This is the problem of vision, the children of rich families in the capital, all of them were born with a golden spoon, how can they understand the suffering of the people?
And
Looking at Ma Zhou, who stopped kowtowing after being stopped by the eunuchs, Li Shimin thought of another little bit of a poor disciple, and when he was suddenly promoted, he would be extremely grateful to the emperor, and he could buy people's hearts very well.
It can be seen that the expansion of the imperial examination system is indeed a correct way of thinking! Full Book - Free Full Book Reading Network
