Chapter 586: The Beginning of the Holy Dynasty (Second Update)
If Junshu only made the scholars feel a hint of crisis, then the imperial examination system was like a guillotine, which was about to fall at any time, completely destroying the superiority and future of the scholars. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢ .lā
The scholars everywhere were completely angry, even if a generation of heroes and founding emperors could not break their foundation.
An astonishing political force began to burst out, and in just half a month's event, Shangshutai received nearly 100 letters, many of which were even county guards, government officials, and even people in the center and the army.
In the study room of the Huagai Palace, the three brothers Yuan Xi, Yuan Tan, and Yuan Shang sat together.
"Big brother, third brother, what do you think about this matter" Yuan Xi asked with a calm face on the main throne.
"This is the foundation of my Yuan family, and anyone who tries to block it will only have a dead end" Yuan Tan said coldly.
"Brother Wang, recently, many officials have secretly retired to their younger brother, and between the words, they have tried to subvert Brother Wang's rule, which is simply looking for death" Yuan Shang was also cold.
Since they were released, they have matured a lot, not as impulsive as they were back then, especially the formal acceptance of the title, and Yuan Xi's repeated preferential treatment, the three brothers are no longer as good as they were back then, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan are now wholeheartedly maintaining Yuan Xi's rule, because they now know that only when Yuan Xi sits firmly, they can enjoy the glory forever, and the Yuan family can become a real royal family.
"Okay, with the support of the eldest brother and the third brother, I am not afraid, after the new dynasty is established, the orphan will officially canonize the eldest brother, the third brother is the king of the county, the world belongs to my Yuan family, not the scholar clan" Yuan Xi said coldly.
"King Shengming"
After the Shi clan made a fuss for a while, Yuan Xi finally began to fight back, and it was so ruthless that it was called the beginning of the Daxi Holy Dynasty by the history books.
Yuan Xi first met with more than a dozen scholars of the humble family who had high prestige in various places in the Huagai Palace, and after their departure, a terrible turmoil began.
"The king is supreme, and anyone who opposes the king is a sinner of the kingdom"...
"The imperial examination system is the universal celebration, and those who block it have bad intentions"
"Wipe out all those who go against the king's will"
In all parts of Dayan, countless Han men who greatly respected Yuan Xi and regarded Yuan Xi as a god appeared in large numbers, and the military department and military commanders secretly added fuel to the fire, and for a time many officials who wrote to Yuan Xi to revoke the imperial examination system were blocked at the door.
"Justice is in the hearts of the people, the army, the public prosecutor, the guard, anyone who obstructs students who try to seek justice, and they will not be spared."
As Yuan Xi spoke for the first time in the Chaotian Palace, many officials turned pale.
In Bohai County, outside the county guard's mansion, I saw a large number of poor students and people blocking the door, and many students held high strips of cloth.
"The county guards Xie Ming, and does not respect the king's order"
"Criminals are monstrous, how can they rule the world"
The soldiers guarding the door swallowed nervously one by one, and wanted to disperse them, but Yuan Xi's royal order had already spread, how could they dare to do it, and there were so many students and people, they couldn't.
Not long after, a large number of troops suddenly appeared, and three officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate appeared in front of them with cold faces.
One of them said in a loud voice: "Students, fellow villagers, this official is the history of the Bohai County Metropolitan Procuratorate, if Xie Ming is really like this, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will not tolerate it and resolutely safeguard the royal power."
"King Shengming, long live long live long live"
As the three officials entered the county government with the army, Xie Ming in the hall sat on the main seat with a desolate face, and the county government officials on both sides bowed their heads one by one.
"Xie Taishou, please come with us," the official said expressionlessly.
"You're so ruthless, you're so ruthless!" Xie Ming said unwillingly, he would rather behead him directly than be arrested in the insults of the uneducated students and the people.
"Whoever violates the king's orders, die!" The official said coldly, and the other officials trembled.
Xie Ming was detained, but under the vegetable leaves and rotten eggs, he was taken away directly, not only committed a felony, but also won and lost.
And this Xie Ming is not only the county guard of Bohai County, but also the uncle of the Xie family, who once commanded the four major families of Dayan, and is now the uncle of Xie Zhu, a high-ranking member of the Privy Council.
Xie Ming is just a list, in addition to him, in all parts of Dayan, all prefectures and counties, one official after another was taken away in the insults of the people and students.
The scholars realized how serious the matter was at this time, and Yuan Xi, who controlled the people and students at the bottom and firmly controlled the army, let them be completely defeated without even using the holy decree.
Yingchuan, outside the gate of the ancestral house of the Xun family, a large number of students stood here and insulted loudly, throwing rotten eggs and vegetable leaves at the gate of the house, and a century-old mansion was instantly deeply insulted.
"Xun family Cao Chen, how can he be public"
"Obstruct the king's order, and the crime should be judged by himself"
The guards at the door trembled, they could only stiffen their heads, and the wooden sticks in their hands were a little soft, these people and students who used to respect their Xun family were all wrong, they were so crazy, but they didn't dare to do it, because these people had the support of the king.
In fact, the scholars have not yet understood one point, that is, the students mobilized the people, and the people were for their descendants to become talents, because only Yuan Xi's policies could give his descendants the opportunity to change their poor and ignorant lives.
"Stop, stop" At this time, an official ran over with a few servants, rushed to the gate of Xunfu, and said loudly: "The king has just ordered, the Xun family is a meritorious minister to Dayan, Xun Kan is the mastermind of the first king, and he is by no means a rebel, if anyone dares to insult the Xun family again, it is an insult to the first king."
The abusive crowd was stunned for a moment, and then a student stood up and said: "Li Taishou, you didn't lie to us, right?"
"Of course not, the Xun family fully supports the Jiupin School system and the imperial examination system, and it is a family of merit," Li Qin announced loudly.
"If that's the case, then forget it, let's go to one house," another student shouted, and a large number of students and people left.
Li Qin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the messy door of the Xun family, and sighed helplessly.
At this time, the door of the mansion opened, and I saw an old man walking out with many people from the Xun family, and when he saw Li Qin, he immediately said very gratefully: "Xun Yan thank you Li Taishou"
"Xun Gong is serious, the Xun family is famous all over the world, although he has served Cao Cao, but Lord Xun Kan is indeed the mastermind of the first king, and now Lord Xun You has also been canonized as a privy council walk, the Xun family is absolutely loyal to the king" Li Qin respectfully said.
Xun Yan smiled bitterly, took a contract from the side, and said: "Gongda sent a son to say it at that time, and I still didn't believe it, but I didn't expect it to be so serious, Li Taishou At this time, seventy percent of the good land of my Xun family was handed over to the imperial court today, which can be regarded as a modest contribution of the Xun family to the new dynasty."
After Li Qin glanced at it, he took it lightly and said with admiration: "Xun Gong is wise, there is a gift to gain, and the lower officials will definitely play the center."
"Thank you" Xun Yan said gratefully, and the other sons of the Xun family also gave a deep salute, and at this moment they felt how terrible the people at the bottom were under the integration of an emperor.
。。。。
Half a month later, in the palace, Yuan Xi stood on top of a tall building, looking into the distance.
"King, the minister is coming" Zhuge Liang came behind Yuan Xi, his tone became more and more respectful, after this time, Yuan Xi's majesty is already comparable to that of a god, a simple sentence can make anyone's head fall to the ground.
"How's it going?" asked Yuan Xi.
"One-third of the officials who were originally opposed were replaced, eleven committed suicide, and those who did not have were also supported by the letter, and many scholars were besieged by poor students and ordinary people, and the imperial examination system was determined," Zhuge Liang reported.
"Okay, after a month, let the turmoil stop, it can't be expanded, Lone is not to kill all the scholars, but to ban the name of the scholars, as long as there is this first time, the rest will be simple" Yuan Xi commanded.
"No"
"Yuan Zhi has already arrived in Jingzhou," Yuan Xi asked.
"Yes" Zhuge Liang nodded, Jiangdong Wuguo still did not express his position, so Guan Yu could only lead the army to forcibly cross the river, Xu Shu is really this battle division.
"I heard that the Cai and Kuai families have also received some shocks, so let Yuan Zhi bring a few books to comfort them, and tell them that the imperial examination system is not to cut off the future of their two families, but to be fair and just to the people of the world, and those who have talent will use it, and those who have no talent will retreat" Yuan Xi instructed, after all, Cai Kuai and the two families have made great contributions, and they still need to be appeased.
"No!"
