After the civil and military ministers followed the column and saluted Wen Yong. Chen Cheng, the imperial historian, came out and said: "Your Majesty, many ministers in the court are vacant, which makes the Great Zhou incomplete and not running smoothly. Just as a person lacks siblings and cannot stand in the world, the minister implores His Majesty to select and appoint talents to fill the vacancy in the court. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal, the vacancy of the central government has a great impact, please make a decision as soon as possible."

"The minister seconded the proposal."

The officials below went out one by one to echo it.

Wen Yong pointed to a pile of folds on the table and said: "I also know that I need to restore order in the court as soon as possible, but there are only so many vacancies in the court, and the talents recommended by Aiqing are all outstanding talents, but how to appoint them is difficult for me to choose." ”

Zou Ping made a list of admonitions: "Your Majesty, Guo Mao, the son of the Marquis of Anping, is very knowledgeable and has a prominent family background, and he can be a doctor in the internal history." ”

Taichang Wenji recommended: "Fufeng Zheng Jing's family is illustrious, and he can be ordered by Dazai." ”

……

Above the court, there were many discussions, competing to recommend the children of the family they were close to.

As the number of vacant seats became scarcer, the courtiers divided into several factions and quarreled with each other.

Wen Yong quietly watched the movements of the court, which was roughly divided into the Guanlong and Shu clans, and the parallel contention, and the opposition between the upper and lower ranks.

After the courtiers quarreled into a mess, Wen Yong thought that the time had come and began to intervene, "You Aiqing is a virtuous person for the country, and it is normal for you to have different opinions, but the recommended talents have high and low learning, and the grades should naturally have a sequence, why don't you concentrate them in the palace and try to see who can do what job?" ”

It's not that Wen Yong doesn't want to get the imperial examination out, but now the books that represent knowledge are in the hands of the noble family, and even if there are no sages in the wild, there are no two, so they can only be examined in a small range of nobles. The gate valve family is the foundation of the Great Zhou, Wen Yong in the new support point of his rule, it is impossible to immediately dig out his own foundation to feed the people, so now the imperial examination system is not applicable, maybe one day Wen Yong dominates the world, there is surplus wealth to educate the people, the imperial examination can be on the stage of history.

When Chen Cheng heard this, it was like he had been stepped on by the tail, and he jumped up and said, "Your Majesty, no!" Heaven and earth have high and low, yin and yang keep their balance, and the children of the upper and lower grades of the family are ranked together, destroying the order of the court, fearing that ethics will be abnormal, and the court will be chaotic! ”

Zou Ping even knelt on the ground and kowtowed again and again: "Your Majesty, the rule of rank is the ancestral system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and tampering with the ancestral system will definitely shake the country's foundation, and Your Majesty is afraid that he will be cut off from the world!" ”

Touching their own interests, the ministers' combat effectiveness exploded, citing scriptures and refusing to let Wen Yong take the exam.

Wen Yong frowned, he just gave it a try, he didn't want to poke the hornet's nest and cause the ministers to oppose it.

The ministers below are all backed by big families, these families dare to do anything for their own interests, and one of the reasons why Emperor Yang of Sui was finished in the previous life was to break with the Shandong Gate Valve. His prestige was not enough to beat the ministers, Wen Yong chose to compromise after considering a little: "This matter is something I have to consider, I see it like this, so I will separate the assessment of the various grades of scholars, the upper grade scholars will be subject to the secretary, the middle grade will be the middle doctor, and the lower grade will be the lower doctor." How is it? ”

Zou Ping still objected: "Your Majesty, there is no old law to follow in the assessment, it is not in line with the ancestral system, please think twice." ”

Before Zou Ping's words fell, Wen Yong's eyes were cold, and he suddenly got up and slapped on the dragon case, and said angrily: "There is no immutable law since ancient times, if it is not for the Taizu improvement system, how can you open the country of my Great Zhou, Zou Ping, you talk about the old system, do you still miss the old system of the previous dynasty!" It's not my minister of the Great Zhou! ”

Wen Yong's words are heart-wrenching.

Seeing his murderous appearance, the ministers remembered that this emperor stepped on the bones of the Wen Hu party to ascend to the throne, and the fishy smell on his hands had not dissipated at this time.

The purpose of maintaining the rank has been achieved, and the ministers are not stupid enough to fight Wen Yong's butcher's knife for this kind of thing, and they all knelt down and agreed: "The ministers are edicted." ”

"This matter is in charge of Taichang, and an edict will be issued to recruit the children of the scholars into the imperial palace, and after ten days, the palace will try it, and then select the best one to be awarded the official!"

Taking a deep look at Zou Ping, who was kneeling on the ground, Wen Yong brushed his sleeves away.

The court dispute was normal, and Wen Yong didn't want to set a precedent for being convicted for his words, so he was dissatisfied with Zou Ping and did not condemn him.

This matter is not over, Wen Yong is just a temptation, since there is no way to negotiate peacefully, then there is only a means to use.

There is still a little time for scholars to gather in Chang'an, and the matter of the examination can be planned again, Wen Xin is not there, Wen Yong called Wen Zhao and Wang Gui to return to the imperial study together, and at this moment Li Xiao'e is waiting with Gong E.

"Meet Your Majesty."

Wen Yong picked up the queen who had been silently supporting him behind him, and asked softly, "Why do you have time to come?" ”

Li Xiao'e said: "The concubine saw that His Majesty was busy with his daily affairs, and she was afraid that her body would not be able to bear it, so she ordered the imperial kitchen to stew a cup of chicken soup. ”

Wen Yong sat back in the dragon case, and Fu'an immediately took the chicken soup and placed it in front of Wen Yong's case.

After drinking two spoonfuls, Wen Yong put down the soup cup, planning to discuss with the two, but seeing that Li Xiao'e had not left, he asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Li Xiao'e saluted and said: "Your Majesty hasn't gone to the Queen Mother to say goodbye for a while, after dealing with government affairs today, if you have time, you might as well accompany your concubines for a walk?" ”

Wen Yong's brows frowned, recently, the Queen Mother has frequently mentioned to Wen Yong that Wen Zhi is released and in charge of the affairs of one place, how can Wen Yong, who knows that Wen Zhi is ambitious, let Wen Zhi leave his nose, and he has tied Wen Zhi to Chang'an under the pretext that it is difficult to leave. The Queen Mother then proposed to share government affairs for Wen Zhi to hold important positions, but Wen Yong has not responded.

Li Xiao'e turned around, her shoulders trembled slightly, and there was a faint sound of sobbing.

Wen Yong got up and pulled Li Xiao'e's body back and asked, "What's the matter, what grievances are there?" ”

Li Xiao'e wiped the corners of her eyes and said with guilt: "Recently, the queen mother often talks with her concubines, Your Majesty has no heirs, and the country has no crown prince and is uneasy, so it is better to follow the example of the two emperors of Xiaoming and set up the Duke of Qin as the crown prince." are all concubines who are not good, and they have not been able to give birth to a boy and half a girl for His Majesty after ten years of marriage. ”

Wen Yong appeased Li Xiao'e and promised to go to visit the Queen Mother together and send her away. Wen Yong's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he let Wen Zhi go with his family affection, but he didn't want him to learn to rely on the Queen Mother to gradually put pressure on himself.

Wang Gui saw Wen Yong's thoughts, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty has an ambition to reform the Great Zhou, and it is the time to gather all parties to work together. ”

Wen Zhao also persuaded: "Wen Zhi's killing of Wen Hu is also considered meritorious, and the emperor's rash handling is afraid that it will arouse suspicion from all parties and be detrimental to reform." As long as the imperial brother cultivates the internal affairs, no matter how much Wenzhi thinks about it, it will be in vain. ”

Wen Yong frowned, the ringworm disease in the past has grown into a tumor that he dare not touch easily, and the murderous aura gradually dissipated from his body, "I will deal with this matter, but you will check whether Wen Zhi has recruited any talents recently, such a method is not something that his head can come up with." ”

……

In the thirteenth year of Taihe, Wen Yong appointed Wen Zhi as a general and led the military affairs of the two governments.
