It is said that the five scholars here are already extremely skilled in following His Majesty in twists and turns. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info came to a study in the side hall after a short time, this is the legendary imperial study.

The room is not large, and there are many bookshelves with all kinds of books piled up.

Although I don't read much of the books on it, most of them review the chapters and deal with state affairs in it, and occasionally discuss state affairs with scholars in the later court. But it's still neatly cleaned, and even the books on the top are spotless.

The chairs that several scholars in the room were going to sit on had been prepared, and when they were counted carefully, there were six. Lin Ang raised his eyebrows, knowing in his heart that it seemed that His Majesty did not leave him on a whim.

Today, I will leave a few scholars behind, and I want to talk about the matter of coming to the temple to take the test.

In a few days, it will be the palace examination, as the name suggests, this palace examination is the talent of the most outstanding 300 students in the world who came out of the emperor's examination, but how did this question come out, saying that the emperor personally took the examination, but it was also to be discussed with the scholars.

According to common sense, when discussing state affairs in the imperial study, the three princes will be in attendance to listen and study. These three princes can listen to the government in the court, and after the court, they go into the imperial study with the five elders to listen to this important event of the country, which is an important reason why these three can form such a situation in the capital.

Because His Majesty's behavior is clearly tantamount to telling the world that the main thing is to train these three people to take over his class in the future, and the crown prince is not necessarily the emperor, and it is still possible to choose from the other two in the future.

The rest, except for the eldest prince Li Ying, most of them were born too late and did not experience the war period, and they were raised rich since childhood. His heart was not as good as the emperor's wishes, and he was not diligent enough, so he was left out by His Majesty.

The younger Seventh Prince, because Concubine Shu came from a military family, had quite strict requirements for him, and the Seventh Prince was also sensitive and studious, so he won the appreciation of His Majesty.

It's just that the current discussion is about the palace test in a few days, and the third prince and the seventh prince are involved in the case, so they didn't let these two princes observe.

"You are all the world's first-class scholars, and now the situation in the field is finally clearer, and a large number of poor scholars are about to enter the office." When the emperor said this, there was a little unhappiness in his voice, he had been looking forward to the scene of this large number of poor scholars entering the government for nearly ten years, grinding and chirping for so many years, and he finally saw it this year, and there was such a big case, how could he be happy?

Especially the five scholars in front of the emperor, Xia Yan, who was the leader, even had distant relatives involved.

Although with Xia Shoufu's upright personality, it is absolutely impossible to help in it, but after all, this matter is still like a thorn, which makes His Majesty very uncomfortable.

"This kind of situation has never been seen before, a large number of talented people scattered from the people have entered the office, how to arrange it in the future, what do the Zhongqing family think?"

It is said that it is a discussion question, but in fact, it is just a trivial matter, and the more important thing is that there are so many scholars from this poor family this year, and in a few years, it will be a large political force, and how to arrange this force is a matter of concern to His Majesty.

"Although most of the students this year are from poor backgrounds, the number of students has not changed compared to previous years. According to the minister's view, the practice should be followed, and there should be no major changes, according to the old system, choose a class such as Hanlin, the second class and the third class are outstanding for a number of Jishi, and the rest are given Jinshi background, and the same Jinshi is born to go to various states as officials. ”

Xia Yan, as the first assistant, preemptively opened his mouth, but he did not understand the meaning of His Majesty's question.

If this is arranged according to previous years, His Majesty will meet a few scholars in the imperial study and ask what is the matter? Especially this Xia Shoufu's family still has relatives who participated in the Chunfu fraud case, and at this moment, it is a serious thing to mention the system in previous years, His Majesty couldn't help frowning, and was slightly dissatisfied.

The little dissatisfaction revealed when the emperor's eyes swept over Xia Yan, Xia Shoufu was a little pedantic and stubborn, and he didn't realize it, but Yue Song, the second assistant of the cabinet behind him, could see it clearly.

Yue Song was a student from a local family in the past, but in the eyes of the Kyoto faction, there was no difference between a local family and a poor family. Therefore, Yue Cifu's promotion over the years has been very bumpy, and it is different from Xia Yan, an old-school literati who was born in a prestigious family and has a somewhat old-fashioned and conservative temperament.

He is even more proficient in human affairs and sophisticated, and is good at figuring out the minds of others, not only won the appreciation of His Majesty, but also had a better relationship with the other three scholars Hu, Zhu, and Wang, and these three were also more partial to him. In addition, Xia Yan is a little arrogant, and many things are often not discussed with them, and he decides on his own, and several people don't like this person in their hearts.

It's just that due to the restrictions of seniority and age, no one can shake Xia Shoufu's position, and he has been stable for more than ten years.

At this moment, Yue Song's mind was spinning, and he had roughly guessed what His Majesty meant. In previous years, except for the first few years, most of them will still go to various states to work, and only when they are older will they have the opportunity to be transferred to Kyoto. This year, His Majesty's intention was to accept these unfactional scholars for his own use, so he spoke.

"This time, the Chunfu case has been thoroughly investigated, and students all over the world celebrate together, but in the final analysis, people will always think of things that have not been found out in the past few years."

Speaking of this, His Majesty squinted his eyes and looked at this side, the frowning brows just now were slightly separated, Yue Song knew that he was right, but after saying the direction, he couldn't talk too much, and he had to go straight to the plan, Yue Cifu understood this very well, paused, thought for a while, and continued to speak.

"According to the minister's opinion, in order to appease the hearts of students all over the world, it is now possible to increase efforts and accept a few more talented people in Hanlin to show His Majesty's determination to recruit talents. The first class directly enters the Hanlin unchanged, and the second class and the third class are not as good as a total of twenty or thirty more places, and these Shu Ji Shi Ben is not established, and they are students who observe and study the operation of state affairs, and if there are unqualified ones, they can also be eliminated. ”

Lord Yue thought about it again, and felt that he didn't know whether this strength was appropriate or not, and glanced back at Lin An, the official who had been specially summoned today, and felt that there was a lot of article in it.

So he tentatively added a few words, "If there are the remaining students who want to stay in Beijing, they can also find some apprenticeship positions for them in various ministries in the capital and train them first, and make these things happen, so that the hearts of students all over the world will be determined." More students will come in the future. ”

When Scholar Yue said this, His Majesty said that his majesty was expressionless, but these people in the imperial study all understood that this was actually the meaning of agreement.

When discussing state affairs, His Majesty the Emperor does not object or agrees, except for a rare case where you can go to the bottom of his heart and say a good idea that he has never thought of to surprise him, generally this Majesty is not as smiling as when he talks about state affairs and family affairs with Grandpa Zhang in private, but always has a straight face.
