Chapter 440: Imperial Examination (1)

"Sir, what are you teaching today?"

Lin Yanghao said: "Today, the Pope's sons make sentences. ”

Sentence?

Wang Xu was not interested, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you continue to class, I will come back when I have time." ”

this day.

The Imperial Study.

Wang Xu was reviewing the recital, Jia Hui came slowly, and after he walked into the imperial study, he pulled the maids back, as if there was something he wanted to say but it was difficult to say.

Seeing this, Wang Xu smiled: "Lord Jia, if there is anything, just say it directly, is it the military situation on the front line?" ”

"My lord, no."

Wang Xu snorted: "How did you mother-in-law and mother today, just say something directly." ”

Jia Hui looked around for a moment, and said suddenly: "Your Majesty, Weichen has discovered a big case, and the main messenger behind this case is very likely to be..." ”

"You don't need to say it, I know it in my heart." Wang Xu interrupted him.

Jia Hui frowned: "Your Majesty knows what Weichen is going to say?" ”

"I don't know, and I don't want to know." Wang Xu said: "I just want to remind you that if you want to participate in the minister, you need to have definite evidence, otherwise, it's better not to say it, if someone accuses you of framing the minister, you won't be able to eat and walk around." “

As soon as Wang Xu finished speaking, Jia Huiyi was speaking: "Your Majesty, in order to clean up the dynasty, why are we afraid of breaking our bones!" ”

Without waiting for Wang Xu to speak, Jia Hui said: "The minister wants to impeach the head of the household department Shangshu Wenqing!" ”

"The year before last, he fought with Aoyuntian, and the official department Shangshu went out with the army, and Wen Qing was responsible for the imperial examination, and he took this opportunity to collect a large amount of money to help students cheat and fill their pockets, which is really hateful."

Wang Xu put down the fold in his hand and looked at Jia Hui: "Do you have any evidence?" ”

"Wechen... Wechen does not, the matter is under investigation. ”

Jia Hui said: "Weichen was discovered ten days ago, and he was the champion of the imperial examination. I have already handed over this matter to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for handling, but the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate seem to have no intention of observing this matter, so so. Weichen came to ask His Majesty to issue an edict and order the Metropolitan Procuratorate to handle it as soon as possible. ”

"I can't do this will!" Wang Xu said: "If you can find out that the minister is cheating by yourself, I will definitely do it, but in the absence of any evidence." I will not doubt my servants. ”

"Lord Jia, please think about it, Wen Qing has been running around for my holy pilgrimage for several years, how can I rely on your words to condemn him, isn't this crossing the river and demolishing the bridge?"

Wang Xu waved his hand: "You go first, if there is nothing to do, don't come here." ”

........

Jia Hui pursed his mouth: "Obey." He slowly exited the study.

Wang Xu was indifferent to this matter, and Jia Hui was very angry, but after thinking about it carefully, he was very pleased.

Wang Xu trusted his ministers so much. Yi Xinglai, a meritorious minister, is really a minister's service.

But in this way, Wen Qing's matter is a little troublesome.

For corrupt officials, Jia Hui will not let go!

In the imperial study, Wang Xu fell into deep thought.

Wang Xu is a little hesitant now, he also wants to deal with Wen Qing.

He didn't know if he was right to do it.

In fact, Wang Xu has his own plans in his heart, it's not that he doesn't want to do Wen Qing, but he is reluctant!

Why do you say reluctant?

Several princes grew up day by day, and he also grew old day by day, and in another two or three years. He is thirty years old, which means that his sons are about to inherit the throne.

Of course, that's an afterthought. But at this time it has to be mentioned.

Just imagine, it should be thirty years after the princes ascended the throne, that is, Hou Wang Xu is almost sixty years old, and the world should be calm, at that time, the new emperor ascended the throne, what is missing?

Lack of prestige!

Wang Xu's martial arts. Pacifying the world, casting a lot of technology beyond the times, is still a powerful world, but what about the new emperor? At that time, there was no more thief for him to suppress, which meant that the new emperor had no chance to establish his prestige.

At that time, punishing corrupt officials is the best way to establish authority.

If the new emperor ascended the throne, he immediately handled Wenqing, it must be a high prestige, and all the ministers of civil and military affairs were convinced, at that time, in order to establish the country, there must be a lack of funds, if you copy Wenqing's home, you will also get a lot of money, which is really a relief for the Holy Dynasty.

It is precisely because of the above highlights that Wang Xu is very hesitant and doesn't know whether to handle Wen Qing.

I have to admit that Wen Qing is a good hand at collecting money, and even the imperial examination is produced, so he has to make a big profit.

.........

Three days later, Jia Hui came to the imperial study again.

"Your Majesty, the biennial imperial examination is here again, Lord Han is focused on writing books with Wenyuan Pavilion, and he can't participate, I don't know what Your Majesty's plans are?"

Jia Hui said.

Wang Xu thought for a while and said, "Just send Wen Qing, he used to be a scientific examiner and a politician, and he is more handy to do." ”

Hearing this, Jia Hui objected: "Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely impossible." ”

"In the last scientific expedition, we have lost a lot of talents, and the county-level officials in many places in Hexi County and Guxi County have no real talents, if we let Wen Qing interfere this time, wouldn't it be more serious?"

"Aren't you just trying to grab Wen Qing's handle? This time, I will appoint you as a supervisory envoy, specifically responsible for checking whether there is any malpractice in the imperial examination, so that you can supervise Wen Qing, and once he is caught, I will definitely deal with him strictly. ”

Wang Xu said slowly.

Jia Hui frowned and thought for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, this imperial examination is the largest in the history of the imperial capital, covering Hexi, Guxi, and the imperial capital, which is extremely important, and more than half of the county-level officials in the three counties have to be replaced, so it is incumbent on Weichen." ”

"But Wechen has a request."

Wang Xu said: "Say it." ”

Jia Hui said: "Borrow Zhang Meng's use." ”

Borrow Zhang Meng?

Wang Xu frowned: "Master Jia, this is a scientific expedition, not a war, what are you calling Zhang Meng for?" ”

"Your Majesty doesn't need to ask more, Weichen is free to use it."

After a while, Wang Xu said: "Okay, it's up to you, the next one is reliable, Wen Qing is the main exam, you are the supervisor, this time the imperial examination, we must select a few useful talents for the country." ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, Bao'an County has been the cradle of literati and Confucian scholars since ancient times, and there are talents, as long as Lord Wen does not stumble, we will definitely return with a full load."

Wang Xu said with a smile: "Okay, you go and prepare with Wen Qing and do a good job in the imperial examination." ”

............

At night, Wen Qing's mansion was up.

In the room, there were only Wen Qing and Jia Hui.

"Lord Jia is visiting, I don't know what's going on?"

Jia Hui secretly sneered twice: "Master Wen, I heard a sentence yesterday, I don't know the artistic conception, and I came here today to ask for advice." (To be continued.) )
