Chapter 439: I'm going to take the exam
ββ¦β¦ If you want me to make up your mind, you are the son of heaven! Zhou Zhiruo, who always felt that something was wrong, couldn't help muttering, and lay down beside Lu Chengqi angrily, listening to Lu Chengqi's regular breathing, and couldn't fall asleep for a while.

The Inmyeongjeon Hall is divided into an inner and outer hall, which has become a fixed formula. Just because the wise ancients didn't understand why burning charcoal in a closed environment would cause death doesn't mean they won't be able to conclude it. Clever craftsmen skillfully used the space, and set up the inner and outer halls in twists and turns, so as to separate the cold wind and make the palace warm as spring; secondly, it is ventilated and breathable, and when the brazier is placed, it will not poison people to death; Third, the sound insulation effect is particularly good, even in the outer hall, and you may not be able to overhear what the people in the inner hall say.
In such a quiet environment, coupled with the incense burner to promote sleep, Zhou Zhiruo quickly fell asleep in a daze even if she had something on her mind.
When she opened her eyes again, Lu Chengqi beside her was gone. Zhou Zhiruo squinted her eyes and faintly saw that Lu Chengqi was wearing a dragon robe under the service of the palace maid. Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo naturally woke up: "What time is it?" β
The palace maid who was serving beside the dragon and phoenix's bed hurriedly said: "Back to Niangniang, it's already a moment of time." β
Zhou Zhiruo heard this, and said loudly: "Why did Your Majesty get up so early? β
When Lu Chengqi heard this, he let the palace maid help him dress and put on his shoes, and said without looking back: "Zitong also got up?" I'm not going to take the exam today, I'm inevitably a little nervous, and I can't sleep, so I naturally have to get up early. β
Zhou Zhiruo could hear the pretense of relaxation in Lu Chengqi's words, she was a little worried, and when she wanted to persuade her, Lu Chengqi continued: "If Zitong is sleepy, let's sleep for a while, it's not dawn yet." With that, he walked out of the temple. Zhou Zhiruo wanted to stop him several times, but he was worried that he had missed Lu Chengqi's big event, so he didn't call out.
Seeing Lu Chengqi striding out of Renming Palace, Zhou Zhiruo also lost his sleepiness and said, "Help me change my clothes." β
The palace maid beside her didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said, "Yes, Niangniang." β
After leaving the Renming Palace, Lu Chengqi's expression began to become solemn. Today, he was wearing a dragon robe with a wide bottom, which was not suitable for exercise, so Lu Chengqi did not start his morning exercise as before, but slowly walked in the direction of the imperial dining room.
Seeing Lu Chengqi's troubled appearance, the personal little eunuch Gao Hao didn't dare to say much, and honestly walked behind Lu Chengqi with the palace maids and chamberlains. Lu Chengqi said that he was going to take the exam, and this analogy is not wrong at all. Since he took power, he has always thought that the overall situation of the court is under control, whether it is the six ministries of the center or the cabinet, most of them have been replaced by "their own people". There is a cabinet under control inside, and a supervision department to supervise hundreds of officials outside, which can be said to be far more powerful than the previous dynasty. But this time, why are there so many obstacles to the implementation of the ten-grade official system? The exhortations of the past four days alone have been piled up in the hall of the vertical arch. Every time Gao Ho brought the cabinet that he didn't dare to vote for, Lu Chengqi didn't even have the desire to look through it, and often said four words lightly: "Stay in the middle and don't send it." β
This made Lu Chengqi very suspicious, did he really have to use bloody means to force these "pretentious" ministers to submit? The law does not blame the public, it seems to be a joke in Lu Chengqi, most of the work of the various yamen is done by Xu officials, and these so-called ministers are just kept for good looks. Lu Chengqi really wanted to belittle them all at once, but this would definitely cause an uproar across the country, which was more turbulent than the ten-rank official system.
Because of this, Lu Chengqi suppressed his impulse. However, these ministers have been on Lu Chengqi's blacklist. What puzzled Lu Chengqi was that it was not only those ministers who had "criminal records", but also Zuo Shilang Zhong Yanhua, Zhongshu Liu Geng, Feng Chengping, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, Zhou Yanhua, Shangshu of the Criminal Department, Jiang Ying, Zhu Xucai, Wei Xujing, Zheng Yan, Sun Leping, Cao Wenzhong, He Yunli, Shi Wenfei, Zhang Siming, Lu Zhenduan, Zhao Yuanyi, etc., all wrote books one after another, directly admonishing the disadvantages of the ten-grade official system. Only Governor Xu Chongming, the first assistant of the cabinet, could not do anything, and he had the mind to wait and see what happened.
Half of the civil officials in Thailand were involved in this turmoil. In addition to Li Jieshang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who was ordered to govern the river on Henan Road, Wu Xianzhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Qin Yikang, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Lin Zhenzhong, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, were not involved. The Ministry of War has never been involved in government affairs, and this is to be expected. The officials are Lu Chengqi's own people, so naturally they will not dismantle their own platform. As for Hubu Shangshulin Town, he is Xu Chongguang's proud protΓ©gΓ©, so he naturally got Xu Chongguang's signal and waited to see what happened.
Looking at the entire court, the only person who can firmly believe in it is Wu Xianzhi, the secretary of the ministry! How can Lu Chengqi rest assured? Although Xiucai rebelled, it was not possible for ten years. But the power of the civilian clique made Lu Chengqi very jealous. If such an official disobeys the yang and the yin, how much loss will Dashun suffer?
And these ministers didn't know that they had been blacklisted by the little emperor, and they still held the idea that the law would not blame the public, and wanted to force the little emperor to comply. But where is Lu Chengqi so easy to fool, what he recognizes has to be carried out. No matter how much the civilian clique opposes it, the officials have already begun to act. Most of the officials in Chang'an City were registered, and it was not difficult to reform. In just four days, the officials of Jingzhao Mansion have been registered one by one. All those who oppressed the people, usurped the people's land, and assisted the squires in evading taxes were all brought out together. These evil officials and corrupt officials were all taken to Henan Mansion as coolies.
The most bitter is not Wu Xianzhi, the secretary of the ministry, most of his work is for his subordinates, oh no, it is the ten officials who share it. The registration of the official register is also proceeding smoothly. After all, all the officials in the world can't all be evil officials, and there are also good officials, right? The most painful official is Yin Huang Weiyi, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture. Faced with the evidence jointly submitted by the Ministry of Officials and the Supervision Department, he had to punish these evil officials and corrupt officials in accordance with the law, as well as the squires who seized people's land and evaded taxes. In the past four days alone, nearly 100 cases have been handled. Rao is Yin Huang Weiyi, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, is "skilled", and he is completely exhausted, how can he have time to write a letter to request the revocation of the new policy? If you give him a copy of Yushitai ginseng, saying that the corpse is a vegetarian meal, he can't eat and walk around! I don't know how many people are staring at the position of this Jingzhao Mansion Mansion Yin, Huang Weiyi doesn't dare to be careless.
Fortunately, today is the regular dynasty, Huang Weiyi finally got out of the busy government affairs, as if out of hell, before the time came, he went out of the mansion, boarded the carriage and went to the palace.
Through the secret report of the Supervision Department, Lu Chengqi knew all this.
But just like that, Lu Chengqi felt even more uneasy, and when he was in the court, what would happen was even more unpredictable. When he walked to the imperial dining room with a heavy heart, Lu Chengqi suddenly asked: "Gao Hao, the forbidden army transferred has guarded Chang'an City?" (To be continued.) )
