After Chai Rong stayed in Yecheng, he finally decided to return to the capital, and the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty returned to the capital after a year's absence. It was an extraordinary expedition, a brilliant victory, a feat that went down in history!

His Majesty the Emperor first stabilized Youzhou, set fire to Dading Mansion, and succeeded in the first battle, completely defeating the prestige of the Khitan.

Then he waved his army into Hedong and defeated the Northern Han Dynasty.

The border troubles in the north of the entire Great Zhou were swept away.

The two most difficult opponents, the Khitan were crippled, and the Northern Han Dynasty died directly, not to mention that the country was destroyed, and even the Shatuo clan was wiped out.

How can such a victory not make people ecstatic, and the mountains look up!

Since ten days ago, the officials and people of Kaifeng have been mobilized to go to the streets, put on loess, wash them with clean water, and be sure to level and clean. Wait until the day when the holy car returns to Beijing.

Before the light was up, every household came out, especially the residents along the street, and set up a case. Prepare drinks, eat, and decorate with flowers.

Don't care if you eat it or not, you want this pot pulp!

Kaifeng Mansion is also very attentive, and even bought a lot of colored silk, wrapped around the trees on the side of the road, making it beautiful and colorful. All the efforts are made so that the Son of Heaven can be satisfied.

Several ministers led hundreds of officials, out of the city thirty miles to greet, along the way drums and music, firecrackers in unison, flags fluttering, crowds of people.

The soldiers, the army and the people, all dispatched, Wei Renpu silently calculated, to do this step, I don't believe that His Majesty the Emperor is not satisfied!

Sure enough, Chai Rong was surrounded by a group of generals, majestic and radiant. When he rode by, the soldiers and civilians shouted long live together, and the sound shook the heavens and the earth, like a mountain torrent and tsunami, and the momentum was magnificent.

"This ceremony won't cost less, right?" Li Xi rode on a horse and asked Ye Hua tentatively.

"At least that's the number!" Ye Hua stretched out a finger.

"One hundred thousand? Is it possible? Li Shi expressed doubts,

Ye Hua chuckled, "Senior brother, you are too polite, it's one million, not counting the money spent by the people of each family!" ”

"Wow!"

Li Xian's face changed greatly in fright, and he closed his mouth, he was still too conservative and had not seen any money.

According to Li Shi's understanding, it seems that since Zhu Liang, the imperial court is not very wealthy, and when Liu Zhiyuan marched from Jinyang to Kaifeng, he even had to pay out of his own pocket to reward the three armies.

Guo Wei's five-year reign has indeed brought earth-shaking changes to the Great Zhou...... At least the treasury began to have a stock of grain, and the people also had a little money.

Just a ceremony to welcome the triumph cost a million times, and it was really willing!

Li Xian had the copper with round square holes left in his mind, and he didn't even bother to appreciate the extravagant welcoming ceremony in front of him.

The civil and military ministers followed Chai Rong to the imperial city. Chai Rong, who was excited, wanted to go to Taimiao first, and talk to Guo Wei about how big the battle was this time, especially to tell Guo Boss that his father and emperor should rest assured that his son had destroyed the Northern Han Dynasty, leveled the remnants of Shatuo, took back Hedong, and stabilized the northern Xinjiang.

The son has fulfilled another father's will.

Please rest assured that the child will have more good news to tell his father, and one day, the Great Zhou will dominate the world and create an unprecedented prosperous era.

Chai Rong put the captured Northern Han jade seal, dragon robe, dragon chair, and sword of the Son of Heaven in front of Guo Wei's throne, so that his father's spirit in the sky could feast his eyes.

Then, he knelt in front of Guo Wei's spiritual seat, meditated, and after a quarter of an hour, Chai Rong slowly walked out of the temple. The grand and solemn ceremony is over.

The next thing is to feast and celebrate, and the monarchs and ministers will have fun together.

All of this was arranged by the political affairs hall, and the word "heart" was everywhere.

As a newly promoted Hanlin scholar, Li Shi was fortunate to participate in the banquet in front of the emperor, and after looking around, he only came to one conclusion: the political affairs hall is intended to please the Son of Heaven!

Thinking of this, Li Xi couldn't sit still, he looked left and right, and finally saw Ye Hua coming over, he hurriedly stood up, took the opportunity to toast with Ye Hua, and said in a low voice: "Senior brother, will Your Majesty be soft-hearted for a while and give up or discount all the plans discussed on the road?" ”

Ye Hua shook his head, "Senior brother, don't worry, if it is so easy, it will change Your Majesty's will, and you will inevitably underestimate today's saints." Your Majesty is pushing the boat down the river, so that the meritorious soldiers will be happy, you see, when Your Majesty eats and wipes clean, when you turn around, what should I do, or what should I do! ”

Li Shi and Chai Rong did not have much contact, and the most taboo thing for a son of heaven was to be capricious and capricious. I hope Chai Rong is an emperor with a strong will......

It turns out that Chai Rong really won't disappoint his courtiers.

No, the imperial banquet had just ended, and the next day, he called a few ministers over.

Chai Rong's eyes were red, the green tendons on his forehead kept beating, and the whole person looked tired. Wei Renpu said tentatively: "Your Majesty, this expedition is extraordinary, the soldiers, soldiers and civilians are tired, shouldn't they rest and recuperate?" To reassure the people? ”

In other words, Your Majesty, don't toss for now, okay?

Li Gu also stood up, "Your Majesty, my emperor's divine power and holy virtue, swept across the east of the river, and the remnants of Shatuo are gone, this merit is the best in the world, shocking the ancient and modern." All the ministers and scholars in the world have a table on the literature, does Your Majesty want to read it? ”

Chai Rong chuckled, "Is it singing praises?" ”

Li Gu hurriedly flattered: "It's a holy salute, and this is also the duty of the courtiers!" ”

Chai Rong didn't buy it, "The duty of a courtier is to be a good errand, not a slap on a horse!" I stayed in Yecheng for a while, and I found a lot of problems! My Great Zhou Iron Cavalry can sweep the world and be invincible. But the shortcomings within my Great Zhou can't be swept away with iron horses. In particular, the rule of officials is even more distressing. The imperial examination was originally a ceremony for the selection of talents by the imperial court, but it was privately taught and accepted by some people, and it became a tool for forming a party for personal gain and appointing private individuals! ”

Chai Rong leaned on the dragon chair, and the murderous aura all over his body rose, making people dare not look directly.

"Pass the decree, within seven days, I will re-evaluate the ministers in the Daqing Palace, especially the Jinshi in the last few subjects, all of them will take the exam, and none of them will be left behind!"

Chai Rong paused, and added: "Also, your political affairs hall should come up with the evaluation of officials as soon as possible, what have they done, whether they are conscientious, if they have outstanding political achievements, I will be exceptionally promoted, if the political performance is unbearable, the literary talent is acceptable, temporarily transferred to the Hanlin Academy, if the political performance is not good, the talent is even more unbearable!" It's the malpractice of the imperial examination, I have to investigate the guilt, the officials are deposed, and the examiners must also be investigated! Alright, you all go down and make arrangements! ”

After speaking, His Majesty the Emperor waved his hand and directly sent a few ministers away, not even leaving a chance to refute.

When I came back from the palace and arrived at the political hall, I looked at me, I looked at you, it was called a bleak storm, and the weather was cool and autumn!

The so-called slow things are round, they pondered holding a grand welcome ceremony, and then hundreds of officials went to the table, the scholars and subjects congratulated together, and rewarded the soldiers, and amnesty the world...... It will take at least three or five months to get this wave of process down.

As time drags on, there is a way.

The key is to let His Majesty's anger disappear, and then slowly figure it out, the left and right are just soft and hard, as mature old fritters, they are still a little confident.

But who would have thought that Chai Rong was not fooled, and he didn't give them any room to show, and within seven days, he would have to re-test hundreds of officials, how many people would be deposed!

Wei Renpu is the most resourceful, and everyone looks at him.

Old Wei groaned slightly, "I estimate that there will be at least a hundred people!" ”

"What?"

Li Gu stood up in shock, "Brother Wei, you're not joking, are you?" ”

"Of course not, Li Xianggong, the scope of the retest that His Majesty said is the last three subjects, the old man calculated, the number of people admitted to these three subjects is about one hundred and thirty people, of which about eighty percent are children of the family! That's more than a hundred! ”

The corners of Li Gu's mouth twitched twice, and he didn't dare to agree: "Your Majesty won't all be deposed, right?" ”

Xue Juzheng also said: "Among them, there may be some who are unusable, I think it is enough to depose twenty or thirty people, and it can be regarded as a lesson for them!" If hundreds of people are deposed, who will still do things for the court? What happens to the vacant positions? ”

Wei Renpu sneered, "You go and tell Your Majesty this truth, anyway, the old man can't help him!" He stood up suddenly, knocked on the table and said, "Even if Your Majesty wants to open the net and live for one or two, can that kid agree?" ”

Li Gu changed color and said, "Wei Xianggong is talking about the champion Hou?" ”

"Hmph, who else but him!" Wei Renpu said unceremoniously: "The so-called clay man still has three points of earthiness, first with Fu Yanqing, and then with Feng Taishi to make a fuss!" One is his father-in-law, and the other is the master who just died! Is it tolerable or unbearable! Ye Hua's kid is ruthless, don't you know...... He got involved with the people of the family, and if he didn't let out this bad breath, this matter would be endless. Even officials like you and me may not be able to bear it! Don't forget, Fan Xianggong is also in Yecheng this time, he is honest, and he doesn't dare to say anything! ”

Li Gu and several people looked at each other, all of them showed bitter looks, could there really be no way?

"I said Brother Wei, I sent the impeachment of Fu Yanqing to the court, but you nodded...... Now that we've come to this point, you can't sit idly by! Li Gu snorted angrily.

Seeing that the spearhead turned to him, Lao Wei's face flushed, but he was not a vegetarian.

"I do everything according to the rules, if you are not convinced, you will be impeached in a letter, and let His Majesty remove the old man!"

Li Gu has always admired Wei Renpu's intelligence and determination, and he pleaded with a face, "Wei Xianggong, why don't you think of a way, our home, I'm afraid it's crowded with people at the moment, it's all three relatives and six reasons, I can't give them an explanation!" ”

Wei Renpu struggled a little, he knew in his heart, he was plotting against Fu Yanqing, he couldn't run away, he didn't want to turn back quickly at this time, and if he took a step forward, it would be a cliff!

Chai Rong is not Guo Wei, and he will not tolerate himself indefinitely!

Lao Wei gritted his teeth!

"Li Xianggong, Xue Xianggong, you have many relatives, and the old man can't help!"

After saying this, Wei Renpu actually said goodbye directly, left the political hall, and went back to the house directly, sitting in the carriage, Wei Renpu was also secretly happy, in the past, I was from a humble background, and I was not from a Jinshi background, you joined forces to bully me, and now the fire is burning on you, don't blame the old man for watching the excitement!

As soon as Wei Renpu arrived at the gate of the mansion, he found that the house was very lively, and the old housekeeper stood at the door and said happily: "Xiangye, the young master has come back from Yecheng!" ”
