Now, Cai Dao has broadened the horizons of Zongzheng and the representatives of the imperial family, and let them finally have a chance to completely break free from the shackles of themselves and the entire family.

When Cai Dao was discussing with the generals just now, these people had already learned the news downstairs, and Zong Zheng and the representatives of the royal family didn't even let Cai Dao meet with their sons and nephews, so they directly discussed with Cai Dao on the fourth floor.

The other party was more reserved on the surface, but Cai Dao saw the flame of hope in their urgent eyes, and he knew that this time, the flame in the hearts of most of the royal families in Bianliang City had been completely ignited by him.

……

Because of Cai Dao, it was not only Di Yong, Zongzheng, the heads of the military generals who were ignited, as well as the important representatives of the royal family, but also the civil officials in Bianliang City, whose hearts were also ignited.

The fire is much more than the fire in the hearts of the generals and the royal family, but the fire that ignites in the hearts of the Wenchen family is not a fire of hope, but a fire of anger.

The person who directly lit this fire was Lu Jiawen.

This smart man, who was called a thief by the Lu family and outsiders, finally couldn't resist the shackles of family and affection, and told his father the conditions that Cai Dao gave him.

Lu Jia asked his grandfather to be the eldest son of Xu Guogong Lu Yijian, Lu Gongxuan, whose reputation is not as good as his second and third brothers, and his sons are also unknowns, so they are naturally not a person who understands.

So, Lu Jiawen's father immediately sent someone to inform several other family members of the incident. In this way, within a day, the news reached the ears of the heads of various civil official families in Beijing.

This astonishing news is spreading from Bianliang City to the surrounding state capitals and counties at a geometric speed. At this time, the Empress Dowager Xiang in the palace naturally learned the news.

You must know that Empress Dowager Xiang is not as good as Empress Renzong Cao and Empress Yingzong Gao, both of them are descendants of the founding generals, but she is the great-granddaughter of Xiang Minzhong, the prime minister of the Zhenzong Dynasty, and the descendant of a civil official family with strong roots.

However, the Empress Dowager Xiang was worried this time, before, there was the Empress Dowager Gao Tao in front of her, and the Empress Dowager Xiang naturally agreed with everything. But she also knew that in the past eight years, she had suppressed the little emperor too much.

Lu Dafang and the three of them were punished, and Zhang Dan, the Cai brothers and others returned to Beijing, and asked the Empress Dowager for the help of the Empress Dowager in Bianliang City when she was at her weakest. Moreover, Zhao Xu's reason for dismissing Lu Dafang and their phases could not be faulted at all.

The heavy rains for several months have caused widespread flooding in the Yellow River and Huai River. If Zhang Dian had taken over as prime minister as soon as he returned to Beijing, others would have been able to implicate him. But at this time, Zhang Dian and the Cai brothers were successively transferred out of the capital by that Luo Guozi.

Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager Xiang suddenly woke up, Zhao Xu's various behaviors since he came to power must have been towards the new law of restoring the first emperor. However, in her eyes, these actions are traceable. However, since that Luo Guozi entered Beijing, the behavior of the official family has suddenly become whimsical and unpredictable.

Could it be that all this is Luo Guozi's idea?

However, how could the arrogant little emperor listen to the idea of this person whom he had never liked too much?

Just when the Empress Dowager summoned her subordinates to think about countermeasures, and the Wenchen family in Bianliang City was ready to work together to fight to the end and huddle together for warmth, an even more shocking news quickly spread throughout Bianliang City from the palace.

Previously, the news that Zhao Xu was preparing to take back the Lu family's property, and the reason why it spread so quickly was the result of the Wenchen family's efforts. But this time, there is no need for anyone's help behind it, Zhao Xu officially issued an edict, from now on, officially change the name of the year, set it as Shaosheng, and abolish the results of the imperial examination in the third year of Yuanyou and the sixth year of Yuanyou.

Next year, when the results of the imperial examinations are announced, the quota for these two imperial examinations will be replenished.

Zhao Xu is doing this because he is preparing to completely break with the conservatives!

Just as Cai Dao expected, among the literati students, some people were angry about this, and they were ready to unite and go to the palace gate together, knock on the palace door together, and persuade the officials to withdraw their orders.

But there are more students who are cheering for this.

abolished the two Jinshi, and it is indeed a pity that the students who are on the list have become the pond fish of the two parties in vain.

From another point of view, the official family has promised in the edict that when the list is released next year, it will make up for the vacancies of the two lists that have been abolished, which means that more people will be able to pass the Jinshi exam next year.

Moreover, this time the reform faction has made a comeback, even if Wang Anshi's "Three Classics and New Meanings" will not be immediately restored, but the content of the imperial examination will definitely be inclined to the policy theory, that is, the content of the law change.

This is quite beneficial to many students who supported the reform of the law at the beginning.

The next thing is even more shocking.

In front of the gate of the Forbidden Palace, Zhao Xu personally presided over the ceremony, and led Han Jin, Zhang Dan, the Cai brothers, and the Zeng brothers to worship the ten martyrs of Yuanfeng and Taixue Xuezheng, who was angry to death on the spot.

And Zhao Xu was even more personally angry at the Taixue student who died at the gate of the Forbidden Palace in the sixth year of Yuanfeng-Liu Bai, who took three incense sticks.

Liu Bai, a fresh and young life died early, life was left blank, he died, but left behind a widowed mother and several young brothers and sisters, in the past eight years, many people have contributed money to sponsor this family that has suffered suddenly.

However, the strong mother refused all.

Now, Zhao Xu personally invited the mother and Liu Bai's younger siblings here. He just wanted the people of Bianliang City to see what Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongzhu had done at the beginning.

During Wang Anshi's reign, the new laws promulgated were convenient for the people, beneficial to the people, and harmful to the people, even to denounce officials who opposed the change of the law to the local level, but he never persecuted a scholar.

But Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongzhu had just become prime ministers, and the positions under their buttocks had not yet been hot, so they killed a Taixue Xuezheng and ten hot-blooded Taixue students. And this Liu Bai is even more wronged, because he is neither a supporter of the conservatives nor a supporter of the reformers, he was involved in it, and he lost his life, just because, out of kindness, he passed the news to Su Shi, but Su Shi was transferred to Hangzhou before he entered the palace.

It's called transfer, but it's actually derogatory.

As soon as Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongzhu took office, before they drove Cai Qu and Zhang Dun out of the imperial court, they first took the centrist Su Shi and indirectly forced Liu Bai to death. Undoubtedly, it greatly reduced the prestige of the two of them in the hearts of the people of Bianliang City and the hearts of students all over the world.

It is for this reason that many centrist students did not take the imperial examinations while the two of them were in office.

In this life, there will be no grand scene of the Zhuzheng Ying Dynasty.

Sima Guang was so angry early that he couldn't get out of bed, Wen Yanbo and Lu Gongzhu's prestige was greatly lost, and Zheng Xia kept making stupid moves all the way on Hedong Road, which even lost the face of the two of them.

Several grand memorial ceremonies aroused the people's thoughts of the martyrs who died heroically eight years ago.

also directly let those students who were ready to go in tandem to knock on the palace door and admonish Zhao Xu with death.

There are hot-blooded people in it, but most of them are smart people, and they know that if they go to knock on the door of the palace at this time, they don't need to be attacked by the royal family, the government and the army, and they may not be in front of the door of the forbidden palace, and they will be beaten to pieces by the angry people.

This idea was not given to him by Cai Dao, nor by Zhang Dian or Yang Wei.

It's completely from Zhao Xu's originality.

In the sixth year of Yuanfeng, after Zhao Xu learned about this in the deep palace, he secretly made up his mind to repay these ten martyrs who sacrificed well.

And the overhead prime minister who Cai Dao dedicated before, and Wen Yanbo said the sentence 'To rule the world with scholars, not with the people', which deeply stimulated Zhao Xu and gave him this inspiration.

For the Zhao and Song dynasties, whether the scholars were important or the people were important, let the facts tell Zhao Xu the truth.

As a result, in front of the people, the civilian officials, who were as easy as slaughtering chickens and dogs, chose to remain silent this time.

The next day, another holy decree was issued in the palace, Cha Lujia asked about the leakage of forbidden Chinese, the sin is not forgiven, and he is the descendant of Xu Guogong, so he will be exempted from death and forever degraded Xihe Road.

Forgiveness or forgiveness!

Omitting to ban Chinese is of course a big crime. But the problem is that the news itself was passed on to the Lu family by Zhao Xu asked Lu Jiawen.

However, it doesn't make sense. Zhao Xu did ask Lu Jiawen to pass on the news to the Lu family, and let the entire Lu family make their own choice. But the Lu family actually spread the news, and it made sense for Zhao Xu to ask Lu Jia if he was guilty.

As a result, a momentary misthought made the Lu family completely lose the opportunity to turn over. At present, Lu Jiawen, the only opportunity of the Lu family to enter the dynasty and take power, has just returned to Beijing, and he has been swept to the end and completely lost his official status.

Of course, Zhao Xu would not use strong means to force the Lu family to take the initiative to give up the land in their hands. Cai Dao had already assured him that in less than three years, he would completely bankrupt the entire Lu family.
