Text Chapter 159 The Civil and Military Examination System
Xie Shence finally sent away the reluctant Wang Jiehua.
A few days later, Xie Shence returned to Jindu.
The outcome of the previous Zhongnanshan incident, which was different from most people's guesses, did not cause much turmoil. For the participants this time, in addition to the son of the cell leader and the family members of the general sentence, who were severely punished, people like Gongzi surnamed Wu, Xu Shilun, Achievement, Tao Huan and others, basically lifted it high and put it down gently.
As for the two prostitutes and women, and the rich merchants who kept them, they deserved their sins and were blessed by misfortune. When the Ti Cavalry found the rich merchant, he was still happy in the Qinglou, and when the Ti Cai envoy dragged him up from the bed and explained the reason, the rich merchant was still at a loss for the whole thing. Of course, after knowing the whole thing, the rich merchant quickly sent 100,000 taels of silver to Weihou Mansion. Although he didn't even see Xie Shence in the end, he was also entertained by the third uncle of Weihou Mansion.
Compared with the situation of this wealthy businessman, Xu Shilun is much more miserable. Not only was he carried by his uncle to Weihou Mansion to plead guilty, but he also went to the Tiqi Division and received twenty boards, and he lay on the bed for half a month before he could sleep on his back.
And the original and Xu Shilun quite speculative results and Tao Huan, although there was no trouble or anything like that, but Xu Shilun and the two have never met since they separated from Zhongnanshan, and on the day when Xu Shilun was transferred to the northwest after Xu Shilun recovered from his injury, he seemed to see the two of them β‘ with Zhao Xu, and entered a restaurant.
The "magnanimity" of the Xie family and Xie Shence surprised those who were afraid to avoid Xu Shilun's accident. So before Xu Shilun left Beijing for the northwest, he came to the door to pull the relationship, Xu Shilun did not take a pretentious attitude about this, what was before and what is still now, it seems that he is not unfamiliar at all, as if nothing happened before.
But none of that matters.
It's just a trifle.
However, as I said before, many things are not big in themselves, but the series of connections that derive from him are not necessarily small.
For example, the Zhongnanshan incident.
Among the people of Jindu, perhaps the impression of this matter is only to stay in the list posted by the Tiqi Division in the Jindu, and this matter has not even spread far from Jindu. For some petty officials who know the inside story, most of them just have something to talk about more than ten days before and after the announcement of the matter. But for those who have some weight in the Jin capital, this matter has become unusual.
It's not that it caught the attention of these big people at the beginning, there has to be a fermentation period for things.
What really broke the calm of this fermentation period was a banquet from King Qi to Xie Shence.
This banquet is different from the banquet when Xie Shence just returned to Jindu the year before last and the banquet with Princess Jinyang and others afterwards, not the personal name of King Qi, but the gold sticker of King Qi's mansion. Xie Shence met with the sender of Qi Wangfu after receiving the post and replied in person.
"I'm afraid that in three days' time, I am not sure that there will be time, but if there is, Admiral Ben will definitely go."
After the people of the Qi Palace's palace responded, they went back to their lives
In the Qi Palace, the person who sent the post replied to the King of Qi with Xie Shence's words. At this time, the king of Qi was feeding the fish in the pavilion and talking to a staff member about these things. After listening to the servant's reply, King Qi waved his hand and let him go down.
After the staff member left, he snorted coldly: "What a big shelf! β
King Qi sprinkled a handful of bait and said with a faint smile: "Zhongshu doesn't need to be angry, this Admiral, there has to be some pomp and circumstance." β
That staff member was one of the people who watched the excitement in the martial arts field with Zhao Xu that day, named Wen Chong, the word Zhongshu, and was a staff member of the Qi Palace, who was very angry after hearing Xie Shence's reply to King Qi's invitation.
In fact, he didn't know that in order to thank Shence for his current power, especially the weight in the heart of His Majesty the Emperor, it was normal for him to take a little gesture at King Qi's invitation. But King Qi can not care, as King Qi's confidant, he has to say.
Even if it's pretending, it has to look sincere, right?
What's more, the idea of soliciting Xie Shence this time was put forward by him.
Xie Shence's previous series of big moves, including the expansion of Cai's case and the reorganization of the Tiqi Division, actually had a huge impact on the Qi Wang Party, and this impact was definitely not benign, from the actual situation, it was simply Xie Shence and the crown prince conspired to attack the Qi King.
Although the King of Qi did not show much kindness after Xie Shence returned to the Jin capital and entered the people's sight, neither did the crown prince!
Even during this time, there was no indication that the crown prince had a closer relationship with Xie Shence or the Xie family than before.
Based on this, Wen Chongcai proposed to the King of Qi the intention of soliciting Xie Shence.
And after Wen Chong put forward his opinion and stated to the King of Qi the possibility and benefits of winning over Xie Shence, the King of Qi also agreed.
In fact, there are no obvious signs of success or failure in this matter, and as far as Xie Shence is concerned, what needs to be considered is actually only who is more likely between the king of Qi and the crown prince.
But for King Qi's side, there is actually a knot in his heart.
Because the King of Qi once attacked Xie Shence, and it was similar to the assassination of Xie Shence after colluding with hostile forces in betrayal.
It was the thorn that Xie Shence and Wang Jiehua encountered when they were boating on Taihu Lake last year. The assassination of the Erli people almost killed Xie Shence.
Fortunately, Xie Shence didn't know.
King Qi didn't care much about Xie Shence's attitude, but he was a little drumming in his heart, although there were all kinds of signs that Xie Shence didn't notice it, but what if, he knew?
Then this invitation in the name of the palace is a joke.
You stabbed someone in the back, and you still want someone else to be your little brother when you turn around?
What are you kidding, it's not like your head is caught in the door.
King Qi thought for a while, and said to Wen Chong: "Speed up, check it, what is the reason, the eldest brother and Xie Shence have not negotiated until now, the faster the better." β
Wen Chong said: "Your Highness, this matter is in a hurry. After all, in the past few months, our people have also been picked up by the Ti Cavalry Division, and the rest of the people, for long-term considerations, have basically suspended their operations."
King Qi sighed and said: "This king also knows that if this matter is forced at this time, it is really a bit reluctant, so let's do it, allow them to act cheaply, and have the opportunity to make a move, if they are not sure, everything is focused on hiding their identity." β
Wen Chong nodded, and then went down.
Xie Shence said before that he might not have time to go to the banquet, but in fact, it was not all an excuse, he was indeed busy recently. On the one hand, although the reorganization of the Ti Cavalry Division went smoothly, with Zhou Jinmian's hard work, he could also rest and rest, but Xie Shence was not at ease, plus there were some very critical things, such as in the selection of personnel in the Supervision Division, Xie Shence's requirements would not necessarily be perfectly implemented, after all, the Ti Cai Division was still a spy agency that belonged to Emperor Jin in essence, so the angle of supervising Zhou Jinmian's selection would deviate from Xie Shence. Zhou Jinmian first wanted to be loyal to Emperor Jin, and the first thing Xie Shence wanted was to be loyal to the laws and regulations of Tiqisi. The two seem to be not much different, but in fact, when you dig deeper, they are indeed completely different.
On the other hand, Xie Shence was found by Emperor Jin again after accompanying Wang Jiehua for such a long "vacation". The reason is that although Xie Shence's plan for the martial arts hall is rigorous, it is not exhaustive, and it is still unknown in many places as far as there are many possibilities in actual operation.
Emperor Jin believed in some of the news reported to him by the Tiqi Division, but he actually preferred to listen to the opinions of the underground ministers.
After all, the Great Jin Dynasty was still a country ruled by the support of the landlords of the clan. Emperor Jin can not care whether the people of the Great Jin Dynasty are living in dire straits, but he can't help but care about the rise and fall of the clan that supports him.
People like Emperor Jin don't want to be foolproof, as long as they can achieve their goals, even if the opportunity is small and the cost is very high, it is necessary to try.
Xie Shence was in the bathroom room at this time, discussing some things in the martial arts hall with Emperor Jin.
"If Your Majesty wants to implement the lecture hall, let the children of the world dare to learn well, and let the people be willing to die for the Great Jin, this position of principal must be held by Your Majesty himself. After all, the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven has his own sense of superiority, and there is no way out when he goes to the battlefield in the future. β
"Moreover, if Your Majesty is the headmaster himself, he can also gag some people's mouths. Let them see His Majesty's determination and courage. This is a demonstration, and it can also represent the interests of some people. After all, although this move will touch the interests of many people, there are still not many people who can see through it at once. And it is true that there are many who continue to change the status quo. Like some old national families, they are very willing to revive the prestige of the past. β
After listening to Xie Shence's words, Emperor Jin pondered for a moment, and then said: "Originally, I just wanted to carry out some reforms to the children of the clan, but I didn't want to be said by you, this gradually became a change to the entire clan class, and the scope even extended to the ordinary people. Fengzhi, Fengzhi, you can always give me unexpected surprises. β
Xie Shence smiled, and then said, "Your Majesty has also intended to innovate a long time ago, otherwise the minister would not dare to be so bold." Besides, His Majesty's move is not for the present, to open a martial arts hall to accept students regardless of their background, whether they are taught or not, in the long run, it is bound to be able to break the door of the world, which is a good deed that will benefit the future, and like the river repairer, it will definitely leave an indelible mark in the history books. β
Emperor Jin was patted by Xie Shence's bucket of horses, and even his fatigue was reduced a lot.
Xie Shence continued: "Serious illness requires fierce medicine, if it is undecided today, I will be weak and weak, which is really not conducive to the country." Different from the imperial examination, the lecture martial arts hall is actually equivalent to the martial arts, but it is only for the sake of more convenient selection of talents that it is not as troublesome as the imperial examination. However, the minister dared to say that the imperial examination and my Great Jin actually did not have much effect. From this point of view, the imperial examination is more about helping the Gaomen clan to grow their strength. β
Emperor Jin smiled with satisfaction and said, "Fengzhi's words have won my heart, and they are very comforting to my heart." β
Xie Shence smiled: "All of them are Your Majesty's wisdom. β
