Yang Reform laughed wildly in his heart, he is the emperor, what is the palace test, can he still know?

Even Wang Chengen on the side secretly laughed, this question is really asked to the right person, in this world, there is only one person who knows what this palace test, this person, is His Majesty the Emperor today, sitting in front of you, you don't know Mount Tai! You bunch.

"This brother, I said that there is a basis for examining state affairs and taxation, and it is said that now the household department is losing millions of taels every year, and the emperor must be very anxious. There are natural disasters that continue to be extended, so how can we not consider the tax aspect? Yang Gengai said the topic of his palace examination in this way, in front of the public. However, even then, others may not believe it.

"Brother Baidu is reasonable, I think I am now worried about internal and external troubles, insufficient taxes, lack of food and salary at the border gates, the emperor will definitely be worried about this matter, presumably, there will be some things in this regard, I will have to work more on this side." Ye Zigen also echoed Yang's views on reform.

"Brother Baidu is right, now the state affairs are difficult, it is said that His Majesty has a dream of a god in his dream, telling him that the northern provinces will continue to be in drought for more than ten years! From this point of view, the emperor will definitely worry about taxes and disaster relief, and he will definitely prepare for the future, and this time we will be the arms of His Majesty in the next ten years, so I think that the emperor will definitely ask questions about taxation and famine! "This person's thinking is also good, and he can see the problem clearly.

As soon as it came to the emperor's dream of the gods and men telling the dream, the gossip psychology of this group of people exploded. Began to talk about the dream of the man of God.

“…… It is said that this matter is extremely effective, and on the 23rd of last month, His Majesty predicted that there would be a vision in Shaanxi~! At that time, there was no vision in Shaanxi, and after His Majesty predicted, the sky in Shaanxi would immediately change greatly, and the sky was as red as blood, illuminating the earth with blood, which was extremely terrifying, and it was a bad omen...... Thinking that the emperor is the true son of heaven, what he says is naturally the will of heaven, with a heavenly constitution in his mouth, and his words will be changed when he comes out of heaven...... "This person's worship and superstition psychology is very heavy, and what he said has a bit of fantasy color, Yang Reform listened to it, and his heart was funny. I'm just based on historical records and weather forecasts, is it so mysterious? Do you want to open your mouth yourself to hang a "heavenly river"? It seems that this is a cow b.

“…… It is said that after the emperor said it, all the adults in the court did not believe it, and many of them sent people to Shaanxi, but before they arrived in Shaanxi, there was news from Shaanxi, and His Majesty's words were indeed fulfilled, and the spread was miraculous, and they all said that His Majesty was blessed by gods......"

Predicting the celestial phenomena in Shaanxi, now, in this Ming Dynasty, I am afraid it is already known to the whole people, and it has become a topic of discussion on the streets and alleys, Yang Reform is very happy to see such an effect, at that time, in order to pursue the effect, deliberately published the world, for this effect, the whole people know that Shaanxi is going to be drought, and those who want to go hurry up and move to reduce the pressure of disaster relief in Shaanxi.

"Humph! The son is silent, and the words of the saint have been forgotten by everyone? Although the emperor is the Son of Heaven, it is impossible to change the sky and rebel against his fate. "The person who ridiculed the emperor just now for giving astronomy and agricultural classes to everyone is really different from others and has a "contempt" for the emperor.

"Xu Yifan, do you dare to doubt and despise today, hum, be careful that the wall has ears, and was invited to drink tea by the people of Dongchang, oh~ I remembered it, only Jinyiwei would invite people to drink tea, this Dongchang is not as civilized and easy to talk as Jinyiwei......" This person and the Xu Yifan who just spoke were on the right side, and the two of them competed against each other.

Embarrassment~! Jin Yiwei handled the case very civilly, and invited people to drink tea, this, Yang Gengai remembered that this seemed to be his own invention. In order to "invite" those who are unwilling to pay the silver to pay the "refreshing" silver, Yang Reform gave Fang Hongzan a trick, for the "nail households" who are unwilling to pay the silver, you can first invite people to the teahouse to drink a cup of tea, talk about the weather, talk about the good truth of life, these people, afraid of the horror of Jinyiwei, generally immediately feel that the weather is very good, life is very beautiful, very "refreshing" to pay silver.

Jinyiwei has always been synonymous with horror, when has it been so gentle, there must be a conspiracy here, most people scare themselves and pay the money "refreshingly". That's why Yang reform's atonement money was collected so happily.

"Wanhu Hou, you ......" Although the person called Xu Yifan was very annoyed by the words of Wanhu Hou, he was even more panicked and looked left and right, for fear that there were really people from Dongchang present. After looking around for a while, I found that no one looked like a person from Dongchang, so I settled down again.

"Yifan, beware, disaster comes from the mouth." Ye Zigen on the side also reminded Xu Yifan that it was better not to say this suspicion and contempt for the Son of Heaven.

"Thank you for the reminder! Taught. After speaking, Xu Yifan also arched his hand to Ye Zigen, which was regarded as a salute.

Ye Zigen hadn't spoken yet, and the Wanhu Hou next to him spoke again: "Alas~ This is strange, it is obviously me Wan Mou who reminded you, why do you thank Brother Zigen, don't thank me?" ”

"You ......" Xu Yifan's face was flushed, but this is indeed a fact, it is indeed Wanhu Hou who reminded him, since he thanked Ye Zigen, but he didn't thank Wan Huhou, and he couldn't say it, so he had to say angrily: "In this way, thank you Brother Wan for reminding me." ”

"Hehe, no thanks, no thanks!" Wanhu Hou triumphantly arched his hand in return.

In fact, among the people who traveled with the emperor, in addition to Jinyiwei, there were also people from Dongchang, if it wasn't for the emperor talking to them very happily, they would have rushed up a long time ago, grabbed the guy who was talking wildly and threw it into Dongchang. Although he hated itchy, he didn't dare to show it, but he didn't see it, he didn't hear it, he could show his teeth and claws in front of outsiders, and in front of the emperor, he was still well-behaved, the head of this Dongchang was nine thousand years old, and he had just been taken down by the emperor.

This group of people is still quite interesting, a little "energetic", Yang Gai looked at this group of "young" reserve officials, and felt that the Ming Dynasty might have to rely on them in the future.

…… The little clash of words is over.

Ye Zigen asked Yang Reform: "Brother Baidu, I see that you are so sure of this palace test, is it ...... Is there a relationship in this house? "For the palace exam, the exam that determines the ranking of the tribute scholars, and determines his own fate, Ye Zigen is obviously ready to get to the bottom of it, and find out that above the court, it is still a little far away from them, the quasi-jinshi, and they all hope to find some inside information.

When the others saw Ye Zigen asking the inside story, they all looked at Yang Reform with blank eyes, hoping that this "powerful person" would be able to break the news.

"Hehe......" Yang Gengai saw that everyone was looking at him with a blank eye, smiled, and said: "This is naturally a little accurate, I dare to say it, not ten, at least ** points are not far away." "Yang Reform pretended to be a good point, but in fact, he was ready to take this test.

"Bah......"

In this corner of the "Buzz ......" teahouse, there was a small conversation.

A scholar asked curiously: "Brother Baidu, have you seen the emperor?" "In ancient society, it was still very rare and difficult to see the emperor, and to be able to meet the emperor were people with ability and rights. This person seems to be preparing to test the great ability of this "magnate".

See the Emperor? Wang Chengen's eyes were filled with a hint of disdain, his son-in-law was the emperor, what else could he see?

"Hehe, when it comes to meeting the current emperor, this, it's really not difficult for me, as long as I want to, I can see the emperor almost at any time." Yang Gengai used the tea in the teacup to shine on his own shadow, and said in his heart: It seems, didn't I see it again?

"Wow!"

"Wow......"

When everyone heard Yang Reform say this, they were very envious, they could see the emperor at any time, how close they had to be with the emperor! They all guessed which family this son was the king and grandson.

At that moment, someone couldn't help but ask: "Childe is reckless, dare to ask Childe's house?" This person really couldn't help but ask who Yang Reform was, although he was sure that Yang Reform was a powerful person, but he was not sure which one he was, and his heart was still a little itchy.

"Uh~! This, the ancestors are in the shade, the ancestors are in the shade, don't say it, don't say it. "Yang Reform definitely can't say, think about it, my ancestors have Zhu Baba, there is King Yan, there is Wanli, they either live in Nanjing, or live in the Forbidden City in Yanjing, can this be said?

A group of people, although they didn't ask Yang Reform specifically about the mansion, but the more they saw him conceal it, the more they felt that he was mysterious and noble, and many people had stars in their eyes and fanaticism in their eyes.

The man named Xu Yifan saw that Yang Reform had robbed him of his wind, and spoke out to open up the topic of who Yang Reform was, and said: "See the emperor, what's so difficult about this?" It won't be long before you are all Jinshi, and when the time comes, you will be able to see Your Majesty and see Your Majesty's holy face. Xu Yifan is used to being praised by others, and when he sees others stealing his limelight, he is not at odds with his heart.

What Xu Yifan said is true, but obviously, others can see the emperor at any time, but even if they become Jinshi, some people can see the emperor once in their lives, and many people disagree and are unhappy about such an interruption of the topic.

"Brother Xu, you can't say that, I want to wait for the results of the test to be behind, even if the Zhongjin Shi can face the saint, but only look at it from a distance, in this life, there is no chance to face the saint or two, Brother Baidu, if it is really a nobleman, it is also ......" This person will take the test results behind, if there is not much change, the general Jinshi ranking is also behind, so, to say that the face of the saint, it is just a distant glance, and then wait for the officials to send to a remote small county as a county commander or something, in this life, to face the saint again, it will take quite a lot of opportunities.

Seeing that this person said sadly, Ye Zigen explained: "Brother XX, don't be so negative, I want to wait for the Jinshi of Jinke, but the first year of today's Enke, I see that Your Majesty is a promising holy lord, and he will definitely make a difference, so we must not be depressed, lose our vitality, lose our fighting spirit, we must work hard, and say again, for the sake of the saint." ”

Ye Zigen's words were supported by a group of people, and the scene became lively again.

…… Yang Gengai saw that they were talking very lively, thought about it, and said: "Everyone, listen to me, since this year's Enke will most likely take the national affairs examination and tax issues, then you might as well talk about it, see if there are any good suggestions, or good strategies, if it is good, I can be a matchmaker, and hand it to the emperor, maybe the emperor has seen it, Longyan Dayue, the ranking of this exam is second, and it has entered the emperor's eyes, and it is infinitely useful!" ”

Yang Gai threw out the bait and used the emperor's favor to fish these tributes.

"Wow!" As soon as everyone heard that this noble man could hand over a note to the emperor, they were all excited, if as this noble man said, the emperor took a fancy to it in advance and entered the emperor's eyes, the ranking of this jinshi, not to mention, the treatment and future in the future are also very different! They all gathered around, and the stars and the moon surrounded Yang Reform in the center.

"Really? Brother Baidu, aren't you kidding me? Besides, if Brother Baidu presents the note to the emperor, the adults of the court and the central government will not be dissatisfied with us. "A scholar can't believe that this is true, and he also expressed concern about this kind of overstepping the level of the court, and it is taboo!

"This is absolutely true, I won't lie to you about this, seeing the emperor, for me, it's like a daily routine! Hand over a notebook, it's not difficult to present something, think now, you are also a quasi-jinshi, the future protégé of the Son of Heaven, the protégé gives the teacher 'homework', what can someone else say? Of course, the palace is strictly forbidden, even me, I can't bring more, the few strips I bring are already the limit, so I can only choose a few good ......"

Yang Reform said a lot, and said that this group of quasi-jinshi was enthusiastic and eager to try, and it was really stupid not to take such a good shortcut! A group of people have already started their brains, ready to show their talents in their hearts.

It's not that Yang Reform can't bring a few more submissions, but to force these quasi-jinshi to come up with the highest level, otherwise, they will write some things that praise merit and virtue, and they will have no value at all, and they can only come up with dry goods if they create a competitive situation.

While speaking, Yang Reform shone himself with the water in the teacup, and silently thought in his heart: Isn't this another time? You still doubt me.

"Tsk...... Yes, Brother Baidu is reasonable, I want to wait, I must be a protégé of the Son of Heaven in the future, this protégé gives the teacher 'homework', I want to come, it's okay! ”

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes......"

"Well, good, good,......"

At first, everyone was a little worried about this overstepping note to talk about state affairs, which was a bit taboo, if it had an unnecessary impact on their lives, it would not be able to draw it, but now when they heard Yang Reform say this, they all put their hearts down, with this statement, no one can say anything about them.

…… Now that there are no worries, a group of people began to talk and express their opinions.

"Yu thinks that this tax has to start from the field tax! …… I think of the Ming Dynasty, there are hundreds of millions of acres of land, add a few centimeters per mu, a cent of tax, not to mention the deficit of this household, this side of the war is more than enough to help the victims! A person took the lead in speaking, and after speaking, he looked at Yang Reform with full will, hoping that Yang Reform would give a high evaluation, if he could enter the emperor's eyes, this person decided to kowtow to this nobleman, Brother Baidu.

After listening to this, Yang Gengai came to the conclusion that it was strategically wrong, but tactically, it was feasible. The imperial court is now doing the same. However, Yang Reform's comment is another matter: "What this brother said is good, I think the court is also acting like this now, what this brother said coincides with what the court is doing, and it really has some ability!" Chamberlain! ”

"The villain is here." Wang Chengen, who was standing aside, hurriedly came over and agreed.

"Tell someone to write down this suggestion, and I will compare it with other suggestions, and if it wins, clean up and copy it for me, so that I can take it into the palace and show it to the emperor!" Yang Gengai instructed Wang Chengen.

"The little one obeys." Wang Chengen understands that this emperor is preparing to choose some available talents among these "young" people! Wang Chengen hurriedly arranged for someone to be responsible for transcribing the speeches of these scholars and noting them with their names.

When others saw that the first person to speak had such treatment, they couldn't help it, and they opened their mouths one after another, hoping to be favored by this nobleman, and then take a shortcut and bring it into the palace to show the emperor and leave a good impression on the emperor.

"Yu thinks that the emperor should work the salt industry and reopen China and France, so that there will be grain at the border and disaster relief in the disaster area." This one is either a fierce man, or a little white, who dares to say that he will use a knife in the salt class. When everyone saw him finish speaking, they all looked at him strangely, and this person probably remembered what he said, and quickly lowered his head, pretending not to care.

Yang Reform looked strange, isn't this salt merchant so powerful? Even these would-be jinshi who will definitely become officials in the future are afraid? He also recorded the words of this one and praised them a few words.

A man said sneakily, "...... I heard that some time ago, when Xu Shaobao was facing the saint in the Qianqing Palace, he vomited blood in the hall, for the sake of this salt class...... "The voice became smaller and quieter, and finally it was gone.

"Shhhh Mo Yan of the court, Mo Yan of the court...... Ye Zigen hurriedly spoke to stop it, this matter, the court and the whole court, are fighting fiercely, Huang Yanjing has already stopped the dynasty for a few days, plus vomited blood An emperor teacher, if they are involved, their identity as a group of reserve officials, there is no ability to protect themselves. The others were even more secretive.

The situation in the teahouse became strange in an instant.

Yang Gai was also unhappy in his heart, scolding, in this matter, he was a participant, a perpetrator, and a victim. Seeing that the situation was strange, he said, "Who else do you want to say?" ”

In the teahouse, it was active again.

“…… If this is the case, when the emperor is asked to open the sea and ban ,......" After this person's words were finished, he received a burst of "sighs", and he couldn't go on.

"Ye believes that His Majesty should exempt the northern ...... from taxes, especially Shaanxi, and send capable ministers to relieve the ......" This person's words have won a lot of praise.

"Xu thought that the emperor should clean up the rule of officials, strictly enforce law and discipline, and ...... the style of honesty and integrity" This person's words won a burst of praise.

"Wan thought that when he asked the emperor to select generals, recruit soldiers, train strictly, and level the border in one fell swoop, Wan was willing to carry a three-foot Qingfeng sword,...... Give me back a bright and bright ......" As soon as the words of this Wanhu Marquis were finished, he got a round of white eyes, when did the literati fall to do such a cheap job as a general? If you want to say that you are a dry supervisor, that's okay.

……
