The dynasty of flowing water, the iron-clad clan.

The Shi Dynasty is a political group composed of bureaucrats, scholars and doctors with a special status in society, which was born in the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, formed and developed in the Wei and Jin dynasties, and prospered until the Yuan Dynasty.

Because of their meritorious participation in the "founding of the country" and their special status, they have been fed or taken care of for generations. In particular, the four major scholars enjoy a special status. They rely on the blessings of their ancestors, and many of them have an official title for generations, and they receive monthly money to live.

Over time, these children of the scholar clan have become the "parasites" of the imperial court, and they can't do anything except receive monthly money, just walking birds, drinking tea, and fighting crickets all day long.

The disciples of the Han Sect have empty ambitions, but they have no opportunity to display their ambitions, and the children of the scholar clan will only become a burden to the imperial court.

The Li family of the Shi clan. The ancient trees are towering, the green trees are shady, the red walls and yellow tiles, and the gold is brilliant.

The door of the mansion was closed, and the head of the family, Li Taihong, sat on the Taishi chair, and after reading the letters from the other three scholars, Li Taihong put the envelope and the letter paper on the table, got up and reached out to get the candle, and threw the burning letter paper into the copper basin.

The letter flickered continuously, and the flame burned quietly in the basin, and finally accompanied by the green smoke, which gradually extinguished, and only the faint green smoke rose from the burned-out paper ashes.

The ashes were gray and cold, and Li Taihong stood by the window looking in the direction of the Forbidden City, his eyes uncertain.

If it is according to the plan of the other scholars, I am afraid that something big will happen tomorrow morning.

"Bastard! What kind of scholar clan, all are a group of villains, what is the responsibility of the world, I think it is all a group of selfish people. Yuan Jie was in the imperial study, roaring angrily, and his voice rolled like thunder, spreading far and wide.

The eunuch who was waiting outside the door couldn't help but shudder when he heard the emperor's angry voice and the crisp sound of tea bowls.

"Grandpa Li, get me in."

When Gonggong Li heard Yuan Jie's voice, his heart couldn't help jumping, and there were messy footsteps around the quiet palace.

In a panic, he held on to the brim of his hat, pushed open the door in a panic and crawled in.

"You go to Chenyi's mansion at once, and give him the letter written by my imperial pen."

Gonggong Li hurriedly ran out with the letter, took a group of people immediately, and hurried to Chenyi's mansion.

"Childe."

Chenyi, who had fallen asleep, heard someone shouting to him outside in a daze, and woke up instantly. Rubbing his eyes, he walked out.

"Childe, this is what Gonggong Li asked me to hand over to you."

"Gonggong Li also said that the emperor seems to be angry tonight because of your dragon face, so you must be careful these days."

When I returned to the house, I opened it and looked at it, and I was shocked at first and fell into deep thought.

"Childe, it's not too early, the carriage is already waiting at the door, why should we go."

It was not yet dawn, there was no one around, and the only sound on the empty road was the sound of horse-drawn carriages rolling by.

Drive towards the capital.

"Childe, it's here."

Sitting in the carriage, I was dizzy all the way.

For himself, nothing is more important than sleeping, and he secretly thought that when he waited for the court, he must let those who couldn't sleep well in the early morning suffer a little.

Only Wang Ze and Gu Fengyan walked to their side, saw that there was no one around, and said worriedly: "Chen Yi, you must be more careful when you are in the court." ”

For some reason, every official was unusually solemn and solemn, and Yeluhuan, Shangguan Yaoran and others were standing in the distance looking at them with bad intentions.

The palace gate slowly opened, and the Imperial Forest Army stood straight on both sides, the civil officials, the military attachés, and the officials slowly entered.

Luo Pengfei slapped Chen Yi in the face, smiled, was glared at by the Praetorian Guards, and stopped making a sound.

I had no choice but to stand obediently in the line, follow at the end, and walk in.

Looking at the upturned cornices of the Jinluan Palace, there is a rui beast engraved at the end of the eaves, which is majestic in the faint morning light.

The eunuch stood at the door of the Jinluan Palace, shouting at the top of his voice: "Since the beginning of the early dynasty, all the ministers have entered the palace. The sharp voice spread throughout the main hall, and it could not be calmed down for a long time.

The officials quietly tidied up their appearances and walked in with their chests held high.

Yuan Jie's face was expressionless, wearing a dragon robe that symbolized the supreme of the world, and sat on the golden dragon chair.

Looking at the dragon chair, I thought: If I can sell it, how much silver will it have to be sold?

Of course, this is just his own idea, and it is estimated that before he reached the dragon chair, he was hacked to death by the guards hidden in the hall.

After the heads of the household department, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of War have finished their official duties.

The court fell into silence, feeling a chill in his back, and couldn't help but shrink his body.

"Enlighten the emperor, the minister has something to do." Shangguan Yaoran stood up from among the ministers, walked to the main hall and said with a heavy expression.

"Shangguan Aiqing, there is something important, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Yuan Jie sat on the dragon chair, sneered in his heart, and looked at the official standing in the main hall uncertainly.

Chen Yi silently calculated in his heart, Shangguan Yaoran was an official from Yipin, the official position of the prince and the prince, and served as Shang Shuling, and the power behind him was not to be underestimated.

"Your Majesty, Weichen wants to impeach the founding Bo Chenyi and establish the academy, which is absurd, and I hope that the saint will see it."

"Reconsideration."

……

"The minister also reconsidered."

looked at a group of officials kneeling in the hall, and scolded in his heart: Dogs take mice, and it is a good thing to win the championship, it is really a gathering of things and a group of people.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has something to say."

"Oh! You have something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it. Looking at Chen Yi standing in the main hall, he asked.

"Your Majesty, my lords, in 220 AD, Liyang died, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty took the throne, the Han Dynasty fell, and Ligui succeeded to the throne, which was originally called Ligui; We know that when Emperor Liyang was in power, he was a "meritocracy", a generation of heroes, and he could properly handle the balance between him and the Dashi clan; But after his son Li Gui succeeded to the throne, in order to win over the scholars and adopt Chen Qun's suggestion, the implementation of the nine-grade Zhongzheng system, each state and county has a Zhongzheng official, Zhongzheng Guan will be the local scholars, according to family background, morality, talent, divided into: upper, upper, upper, middle, lower and lower nine grades, according to the different levels, the size of the official is also different. ”

"It is estimated that all the ministers, with their eyes closed, can figure out that in that dynasty, family background is the most important thing, and morality and talent will be greatly weakened.

What's wrong with that? For example, Lord Shangguan is mediocre and incompetent, but his grandfather is an official, and his father, uncle, brother, and son will be an official; My ancestors were born in a poor family, and it is estimated that they have been from a poor family for generations. In that era, there was a popular saying that there was no poor family in the upper grade and no powerful family in the lower grade. Now that Your Majesty has promoted the imperial examination system, there will be a large number of children from poor families, so that these children can share the worries for Your Majesty and the imperial court. ”

"You..." After Shangguan Yaoran heard this, he was annoyed and angry, and kept touching his chest with his hands, almost not gasping for breath.

"For the emperor's courtiers, he should go to the sacred heart and understand the people's will, and now Weichen is just founding an academy and wants to cultivate more useful talents for the emperor and Dayuan, is this also wrong for Lord Shangguan?"

"The lower officials know that once the academy is completed, the cultivation will offend the interests of the major scholars, but the ministers present, you are the officials of the imperial court, you can only have the imperial court in your heart, and you can only think about the imperial court everywhere, that lord, if you still want to prevent the establishment of the academy, you will be against the imperial court and the emperor."

Looking at the officials in the hall, he lowered his head in shame, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart, Xiao Shan and I fight, wash and sleep.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you still have something to say?" The emperor looked at the ministers kneeling in the hall and sneered.
