When all things form a general trend, no one can stop it.

Seeing that Datang had taken the absolute initiative, Sun Xiangfu was relieved.

During the games, everyone is in a kind of joy, and the happy days will always pass quickly, more than a month, Gangneung City does not know how many people's joy and tears left, to the end of September, with the end of the last game, this hustle and bustle is finally going to disperse.

Of course, it is not that Gangneung City is not lively, and the imperial court immediately released some news after the start of the sports conference, and Sun Deshou, the head of the Agricultural College, was officially appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture.

Wei Ting, the former secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture, succeeded Liu Zhenghui and served as the general manager of Huainan Province.

Li Chengqian once again served as the crown prince of the prison state, and sat in Jiangling City, and his errand in the Ministry of Rites was taken over by Tang Jian, and he was also responsible for presiding over the imperial examination held in Jiangling City in late October.

Therefore, when these tourists to watch the games disperse, Jiangling City will immediately be filled with students from all over the country, you know, Datang has been implementing education throughout the country for six years, and now the national literacy rate has almost reached about one or five percent, with the current population of 35 million, that is, four or five million people, among them, there are people who have the level to participate in the imperial examination, even if only one percent, that is hundreds of thousands.

This unprecedented scale of the imperial examination, for Datang, is also a grand event, and only the venues vacated after the various competitions in Jiangling City can be arranged, and then the imperial examination in the future, it will not dare to be so concentrated, and it is necessary to take the diploma at the state and county level.

Moreover, it is no longer the same as the current three-year examination, but every year, passed, obtained a diploma, admitted to the capital, and obtained the national diploma recognized by the imperial court, you can go to the imperial court department or various enterprises for internship according to the student's own wishes, to see the actual work ability, to assess whether you can engage in politics, or engage in other industries, that is to say, the imperial examination, it will not only be a channel for the imperial court to select officials, but also a channel for various industries to select talents.

Personal future, will no longer be reflected in whether you can read, yes but in whether you can do things, actually complete the work task, no hands-on ability of nerds, will be eliminated by the society, those who can have their own ideas, put forward some advanced theoretical knowledge, will be robbed by various professional industries, quickly realize self-worth.

Li Shimin still returned to Jiuyuan County to live after the sports conference, of course, this is just an illusion, he withdrew from government affairs, is to prepare some things, until the beginning of the spring of next year, when the imperial court returns to Chang'an to work, he will start a road that may last for several years to tour the west.

Therefore, Sun Xiangfu didn't have much time to be lazy to play with the children at home, after all, Li Shimin gave him the festival charm, and he had to do things.

However, Sun Jing and Sun Wanting immediately cried when they learned that their father and mother had packed their luggage with a large family of younger brothers and sisters and were about to go out and didn't take them with them, until Sun Xiangfu promised to leave Wukong at home to play with them, which was slightly better.

What Sun Xiangfu didn't know was that as soon as they went out on the front foot, the two little guys immediately put away their tears and looked happy, Sun Jing took out his toys, Sun Wanting took out the small clothes she sewed for Wukong, and prepared to take him out to play with his classmates after dressing Wukong up.

Over there, on the southbound boat, Sun Xiangfu had to hurriedly coax Sun Feng, Sun Wanyu, and a few other younger children who were crying, and repeatedly assured them that there were animal trainers in Lingnan, and there were many monkeys.

After they calmed down a little, Sun Xiangfu had the opportunity to talk to Li Tai about his plans after going to Lingnan.

"At the end of next month, there should be more than 2,000 agricultural students who will be selected, at that time, on this side of Lingnan Road, you have to have a fold to ask for more people, at least three to five hundred, from Layue to March and April next year, I will focus on teaching them the knowledge of taking care of these new crops, and in the future, I will hand over this piece to them."

"Teacher, don't worry, how can you say that our Lingnan Road is also the venue for the next sports conference, in all aspects, the resources of the imperial court are biased towards us, five hundred agricultural students, I will definitely help you come over." Li Tai said with a confident look.

Now, Li Shimin has agreed to his food-for-labor plan, as long as the demand for labor is alleviated next year, then the development of Lingnan Road will enter a fast track, the future potential, and the importance to Datang, will gradually increase, perhaps, can become the third center of gravity of Datang in addition to Guanzhong and Shannan Road, because it is related to the entire overseas, and sea lanes.

When Sun Xiangfu and Li Tai were chatting about some future plans for Lingnan on the boat, Li Shimin, who was in the study of Jiuyuan County, almost blew up his lungs, he had not had this urge to kill people for many years.

"Come on, drag it down and kill it with a cane."

Hearing Li Shimin's sentence, Ma Daquan, the deputy superintendent of the inner chamberlain, who was still triumphant just now, suddenly turned pale, he thought that he had exposed the plan of a traitorous minister who intended to seek the country, but what he didn't want to get in exchange was the result of being killed with a cane.

"Your Majesty spares your life, Your Majesty spares your life! The slave maid is also dedicated to the sake of the Li family······"

Li Shimin's shouts and Ma Daquan's screams suddenly alarmed Wang Deyong, who was waiting outside the door, and he hurriedly rushed in with the guards.

"Your Majesty is angry, but you can't let the blood of a filthy person like him dirty the pure land of Jiuyuan County, and the slave thinks that even if he is killed with a cane, he should be dragged away."

"You ······"

Ma Daquan thought that Wang Deyong, who was also a eunuch, would ask for a favor for himself, but he didn't want to, he opened his mouth and said such a thing.

However, the guards did not give Ma Daquan a chance to continue talking, and covered his mouth, waiting for Li Shimin's next order.

"Take this dog out of the county for execution." Li Shimin flicked his sleeves, still panting in his chest, obviously, the anger had not subsided for a while.

Seeing him like this, Wang Deyong felt that some of the words he had prepared could be said to Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to be angry with an incomplete eunuch, he has today, he is to blame, just you have not been caused any losses because of his slander, it is not good to be angry in vain."

Li Shimin pointed to the door and said, "Do you know what this dog just said to me?" ”

Wang Deyong nodded and said, "The slave and maid have heard it just now, Nong Guogong is dedicated to the people, and his character is comparable to that of the ancient sages, how can he do dirty things, however, have you thought about it, this may be deliberate by Nong Guogong and Shangguan Changshi, the purpose is to tell you something." ”

Hearing Wang Deyong say this, Li Shimin suddenly calmed down and began to use his brain to think about the problem.

The course of the matter was not complicated, Sun Xiangfu and Shangguan Yi staged a scene of secret discussions behind closed doors on the ship to Liaodong, and then, Shangguan Yi sent three or four letters to Sun Xiangfu during the half-month trip to Liaodong.

When he arrived in Liaodong, Ma Daquan learned that Su Dingfang, who took over the position of Zhang Gongjin's Anton Governor, was Sun Xiangfu's old department, and in the few days after Su Dingfang received the decree, he showed special respect for Sun Xiangfu, and, like Shangguanyi, the correspondence with Sun Xiangfu was very frequent.

Liaodong now has a population of more than 8 million and an army of more than 200,000 troops! Ma Daquan, who had already had some holidays with Sun Xiangfu, suddenly felt that he might have discovered a shocking conspiracy, that is, Sun Zhengming was strategizing and plotting to rebel.

With his understanding of Li Shimin, this aspect is definitely Li Shimin's untouchable scales, as long as he informs Li Shimin of some suspicions, then even if Sun Xiangfu has not done it, he will shed his skin, at least, he will not get Li Shimin's trust again.

So, after he came back after announcing the decree, he told Li Shimin about it.

He didn't know that the eunuchs discussed politics and falsely accused the ministers, this is Li Shimin's death hole, as for saying that people like Sun Xiangfu will rebel, you are pulling the sky, and Li Shimin can't believe it.

However, after listening to Wang Deyong's words, Li Shimin began to reflect.

Why did Qin come to an end?

Eunuch Zhao Gao was in turmoil.

How did Han perish?

Ten permanent servants are in chaos.

Although this was not the main cause, it was an important factor in hastening the dynasty's demise.

What are the benefits of the existence of eunuchs for this country?

It seems that in addition to making them lose the ability of the cholera palace, it does not have much effect, if it is said that after castration, it will make them more loyal to the country and the royal family, then it may not be, if it is really for the good of this country, will people like Ma Daquan jump out and falsely accuse Sun Zhengming?

This is the era of a powerful king like himself, if he is a hundred years later, those children and grandchildren who grew up under the service of these eunuchs will inherit the throne?

The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more he felt that this was a big problem, perhaps, Sun Xiangfu was telling himself in this way that there were hidden dangers in eunuchs.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin glanced at Wang Deyongdao, who had served him for more than ten years, "Do you have something to say to me?" ”

The king bowed down and bowed, "There are some words that have been buried in the hearts of slaves and maids for a long time, and I ask Your Majesty for forgiveness." ”

Li Shimin raised his hand to signal his exemption and said, "Say it!" ”

Wang De used the language of organization, and his face looked a little lonely and said, "The slave maid sold herself into the palace at the age of twelve, and at the age of thirteen, she was assigned to the Qin Palace, followed the head of the palace, and served His Majesty.

But what about being a chamberlain?

Slaves and maids have no children, no relatives, no money, no status, what is the meaning of slaves and maids?

No.

I don't know when the slave maid's heart feels more and more empty, and from time to time, there will be some thoughts that are very bastard in the slave's own opinion, and the slave and maid have been restrained, trying to make themselves more normal, and putting all their thoughts on serving His Majesty.

Later, the slave and maid found that it was not the slave and the maid alone who would have some bastard thoughts because of the mutilation of the body, and none of the eunuchs in the house were normal, some people could barely restrain themselves, and some people could not restrain themselves, some of them were greedy for money, some were sensitive, and they either wanted to kill this or trample on that all day long, and some were paranoid, and even had a preference for abusing others······"
