Chapter 479: Cheng Yue Changing the Law

Xie Daoqing looked carefully and found that whether it was a banknote or a coinage, there was no date on it, and there was no hole in the middle of the coin, which was very different from the current coins. After thinking about it seriously, he said, "Governor, there is no hole in the middle of the coin, how can it be easily carried?" Also, is the era name not printed? ”

Cheng Yue said: "There is no hole in the middle of the coin, the purpose is to prevent the people from using a large number of steel coins and using more paper money, so that the circulation is more convenient." As for the era name, because the money made by the minister was not contracted by order, but only issued by the bank, it could not be printed. If the sage decrees that the coin of the minister system is the official coin of the Great Song Dynasty, the minister should print the year name. ”

Xie Daoqing fell into deep thought. The right to mint coins is the power of the country, and the private minting of coins is to exterminate the nation. However, Cheng Yue is different, he has the right to make decisions in his special zone, and even if he issues new coins, others can't say anything, because it is really necessary. In the Southern Song Dynasty, I don't know how much suffering I have endured without money to use, and it is imperative to unify the currency.

Once it is decided, the coinage power of the Great Song Dynasty will all fall into the hands of Cheng Yue, and Cheng Yue's power will increase to an unimaginable level, and all the officials in the court will have to run for the door. However, even if she didn't allow it, the coins made by Cheng Yue were so exquisite, and with Cheng Yue's guarantee, she would definitely be able to quickly eliminate the existing currencies and grasp the de facto coinage rights. In other words, whether she agrees with it or not, it has no effect on the outcome.

Xie Daoqing sighed in his heart, the so-called general trend has been achieved, is this what it means?

Quan Jiu and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all knew that Cheng Yue first ordered Wu Jun to take the lead, and then he suddenly used the killer weapon of coinage. Start with this. That is the beginning of the monopoly of power by the Metropolitan Governor!

What a powerful means!

This is a Yang Mou!

It's even more of a conspiracy!

The Metropolitan Governor has made a move!

Xie Daoqing struggled in his heart for a long time. Be at one's wits' end. I couldn't help but look at the two prime ministers. Who knew that Liu Mengyan and Chen Yizhong's eyes were half-open and half-closed, and they turned a deaf ear to the big thing around them.

Xie Daoqing had no choice but to nod and said: "The Metropolitan Governor can try it first, if it doesn't cause chaos, the court should allow it!" ”

Cheng Yue said calmly: "The minister obeys the order." The tone was calm, as if it was just something ordinary.

The ministers all sighed in their hearts, the beginning of the Great Song Dynasty's reform was at this time!

Cheng Yue did not return to the column, but arched his hand and said: "Enlighten the two saints." The minister also has a piece of music about next year's imperial examination. ”

Cheng Yue's voice was not loud, but when he heard the ears of the ministers, it was like a thunderbolt in the sky!

What the?!

The Metropolitan Governor is going to make a move against the department!

Except for the Cheng Party, the DPRK and the Central Committee are all shocked, has it finally come to this day? The Five Classics and Four Books are no longer the only ones, will the books of the Metropolitan Governor be included in the imperial examination?!

This is an unprecedented change from the Sui and Tang dynasties to the present!

Cheng Yue calmly continued: "The minister thinks that the current imperial examination is becoming more and more outdated, and it is impossible to effectively govern the country with only the Five Classics and Four Books. It is necessary to pay equal attention to the arts and sciences, and recruit talents without sticking to one pattern. The minister has ordered the SAR to start this year. New students are added to the content of the test, and the proportion of new students is increasing year by year. In order to avoid the Great Song Dynasty, the standards vary from place to place. In confusion, the minister implored the two saints to issue an order to change the examination method of the SAR at the same time. ”

Xie Daoqing and Quan Jiu were so nervous that their teeth were fighting. Cheng Yue's order in Suzhou for the examination and selection of talents has been reported to Lin'an, although the specific method is not clear, but his new school has long been included in it. What's more, Cheng Yue has spoken first from the time he first entered Lin'an, and no one in the court will be surprised.

But he didn't expect Cheng Yue to be abnormal this time, and he didn't wait for the end of the Suzhou exam, but directly asked the imperial court to reform the imperial examination. After all, the imperial examination is a major national event, and it has been practiced for hundreds of years since the Sui and Tang dynasties, so should such a major change be made in his own hands?

Xie Daoqing looked at the ministers below. Almost all of the important ministers in the court were selected by the imperial examination, and it was almost impossible to be a scholar without entering the top three, so they attached great importance to their imperial examination background. In other words, they are all beneficiaries of the imperial examination. However, from Liumengyan downward, all of them didn't say a word. Many imperial histories led by Liu Yu are usually impeached at every turn, and they are not afraid of the powerful, and they are also casual at this time. There is no need to say anything about the Cheng Party in the middle of the DPRK, there is no doubt that if anyone dares to oppose Cheng Yue's intentions at this time, these people will swarm and absolutely put anyone to death!

Cheng Yue has firmly controlled the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and it is becoming more and more difficult to shake!

Xie Dao sighed to himself. She understands that Cheng Yue's approach is correct, but she doesn't want to bear this responsibility by herself, will the ancestors and ancestors blame her? And after this matter is announced, what will be the reaction of various places? It is estimated that few people dare to scold Cheng Yue, but what is polite to her? The Southern Song Dynasty scholars originally hated women to listen to politics, so they took the opportunity to point out Sang and scold Huai, can she bear it? Will it leave a lasting infamy?

Xie Daoqing hesitated, exchanged glances with Quan Jiu a few times, but still couldn't make up his mind.

Cheng Yue stood like a javelin, pursed his lips tightly, and his face was full of unshakable determination.

There was silence in the hall, and the needle drop could be heard, and everyone knew very well in their hearts that they would witness history with their own eyes, and the Empress Dowager had to agree no matter how hesitant she was.

Xie Daoqing struggled several times in his heart, knowing that it was difficult to refuse Cheng Yue's request, and sighed: "The scholar wants to reorganize the imperial examination, and the mourning family is a woman, and he can't do this, everything is up to the decision of the scholar." University scholars should be cautious and think of eternity. ”

Cheng Yue was once named a scholar of Duanmingdian, and Cheng Yue intervened in the name of the governor of land and water in the matter of the imperial examination, of course, he couldn't do it, and this Duanmingdian scholar who was not used was moved out at this moment.

As soon as Xie Daoqing's words fell, there was a commotion among the ministers - Xinxue Dasheng, and the governor of the capital finally took charge of the government!

Cheng Yue saluted and said, "The ministers are grateful." After thanking him, Cheng Yue still did not retreat, and said, "The minister still has a copy." ”

Xie Daoqing was secretly frightened, Cheng Yue didn't make a sound, one hit at a time, one after another, what's the matter?

Cheng Yue said: "After more than a year of implementation, the new law formulated by the minister in the special zone has been fruitful, and the minister intends to spread it to the entire territory of the Great Song Dynasty, so as not to be used by others because the laws of the two places are different. The Great Song Dynasty changed the law, and the ministers were willing to bear it! ”

Xie Daoqing and Quan Jiu knew that there would be today, but they didn't panic. Cheng Yue's SAR governance is impressive, and they have long seen it in their eyes, and giving Cheng Yue to change the law will not make them embarrassed, but it is the right thing to do.

Liu Mengyan and Chen Yizhong complained bitterly in their hearts. They thought that Cheng Yue would not start the Great Song Law change so quickly, but Cheng Yue did not discuss it with them, so he suddenly asked for the change. In this way, when the reform begins, Cheng Yue will reuse his important ministers, and although the two of them are the prime ministers, they will still be hollowed out, unless they try their best to fight for Cheng Yue.

However, Cheng Yue's subordinates are extremely strict, and most of his important ministers are not on good terms with them, how can they take refuge in it? When the change is completed, will their prime minister still do it? In Cheng Yue's mind, how was it arranged for the two of them and his subordinates?

Xie Daoqing cleared his throat heavily, and said: "If the scholars want to change the law to become stronger, the mourning family should be approved, and the scholars of the Ming Palace are specially changed to the scholars of the Jixian Palace, and the general leaders of the scholars of the Lao University are subject to moderation!" ”

Cheng Yue took a step forward, bowed deeply, and said in a deep voice: "The minister should do his best, and then die!" ”

Cheng Yue changes the law, and the final word is final!

Cheng Yue's title as a scholar of Jixian Hall is exquisite. The grades of scholars in the Song Dynasty were divided into four layers.

The first layer is the bachelor of the secret pavilion of the three halls, theoretically there should be three prime ministers in the Song Dynasty, the prime minister added "Zhaowendian University Scholar" after the official title, the second phase added "supervising the history of the country", and the last minister added "Jixian Hall University Scholar".

The second layer is the Hanlin Bachelor, who can only be held by those who have been admitted to the Jinshi Gaoke in the imperial examination, and is responsible for drafting various documents of the imperial court. The one who drafts documents for the emperor is called the internal system, and the one who drafts documents and orders for the prime minister is called the external system, that is, the knowledge system. Because Cheng Yue did not go through the imperial examination, no matter how great his merits were, it was impossible to be a bachelor of Hanlin.

The third layer is the bachelors of the palaces that Cheng Yue once was entitled, which is divided into four types: "Guanwen Palace, Senior Administration Palace, Duanming Palace, and Baohe Palace". Most of them are appointed by the deposed prime minister. There is also a Privy Counsellor on this floor, which is held by a high-ranking official of the Privy Council, which is slightly inferior to the Privy Councillor.

The last layer is the scholars of the various pavilions (Longtu Pavilion, Tianzhang Pavilion, Baowen Pavilion, Xianmo Pavilion, Huiyou Pavilion, Fuwen Pavilion, Huanzhang Pavilion, Huawen Pavilion, Dingmo Pavilion, Baozhang Pavilion, Xianwen Pavilion), which are mainly used to show the status of the ministers who are valued and favored, and improve their status in the literary world, which has little practical effect.

Cheng Yue was a scholar of Duanming Temple before, which is an exception. But if you want to preside over the change of the law from now on, the Duanming Palace scholars will not be enough. The so-called name is not right, the words are not good, the scholar of Zhaowendian and the supervisor of the history of the country have been led by Liumengyan and Chen Yizhong, so the only choice is to skip the level and seal Cheng Cheng to become a scholar of Jixian Palace. With this title, although Cheng Yue is not the prime minister, he can also give orders in the name of a similar prime minister, Xie Daoqing can be described as well-intentioned.

The ministers of the palace silently watched Cheng Yue pocket the ruling power of the Great Song Dynasty, such a young powerful minister, it can be said that it is unprecedented, where will the big ship of the Great Song Dynasty sail under the leadership of Cheng Yue? There is only one thing that is certain, under the rule of the Metropolitan Governor, everything changes, and if you can't adapt, you will be eliminated immediately!

The holy decree is underground one by one, each of which can be called shocking to the world, in just one day, Cheng Yue has gathered all the power of the government in one, which is better than the previous minister Jia Nidao!

The big event was set, Xie Daoqing suddenly felt a little tired, and his eyes began to blur, and he barely supported it: "Disperse, the mourning family has to go back and rest for a while." ”

Cheng Yue saw that Xie Daoqing's face was wrong, so he hurriedly waved his hand, asked the ministers to retreat, stepped forward to support Xie Daoqing, and said in a low voice: "Is the queen mother dizzy?" (To be continued......)
