Although Li Jifu was named Zhao Guogong, Li Yu's worries about Li Jifu did not disappear. If the wood is in the forest, the wind will destroy it, and if the people show in the group, the crowd will destroy it. Although the appointment of Li Jifu as Zhao Guogong can express Li Jifu's strong support, it will inevitably make Li Jifu even more hated. These villains have no way to govern the country, take inaction as high-mindedness, and take bribery and exploitation as their ability, but they can't tolerate people who really do things. These people are like flies and mosquitoes, they will see every moment to slander and disagree. Therefore, Li Yu was very grateful to Queen Wang. There are also officials who have been laid off, and there are also officials who have been laid off, and there are also those who cry to Queen Wang, beg for officials, and scold Li Jifu for not being a thing, but Queen Wang did not say a word like Li Yu. If you cry poor, you will give some Xingzhi treasure money, if you are looking for a job, let him fend for yourself, and if you want to make a career, you will persuade him to go to Yang Yuling or Liu Zongyuan, or rely on his ability to seek it, in short, he has no selfish interests for his mother's family, which reflects the consciousness that a Tang queen should have.

In contrast, the crown princess, who is also Li Yu's cousin, is a bit excessive. The protégés of the Guo family are all over the government and the opposition, and this time the big layoffs are deliberately targeted by Li Jifu in Guo's opinion. Before the crossing, Li Yu was not very good at handling relationships with women, let alone Guo Shi, who cried and cried as soon as they met? Fortunately, Li Yu is not Song Renzong or Song Shenzong, otherwise Li Jifu would have become Fan Zhongyan or Wang Anshi. Guo made Li Yu very annoyed, and even ordered not to see the crown princess, secretly lamenting that Li Chun was right not to establish Guo as the queen in history, and wondered if he should write this article in his will before he died.

This layoff, similar to Fan Zhongyan's famous saying "A family crying is like crying all the way", has also been repeated many times by Li Jifu, Li Jifu said too much, it is estimated that there will be nothing to do with Fan Wenzhenggong in the future. Thinking of this, Li Yu couldn't help but want to write down Lao Fan's famous sentence "The worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world" and gave it to Li Jifu.

Li Jifu's recital still aroused another thought by Li Yu. The purpose of the imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty was naturally to select talents, but as the sober people said, "Emperor Taizong really has a long strategy, and he earns all the heroes", using the pitiful opportunity provided by the imperial examination as a bait, so that the poor scholars in the world learn from each other and do not think of rebellion. Therefore, the imperial court deliberately elevated the imperial examination, and the likes of Zhou Jin and Fan Jin, who had done nothing, had already appeared, and even received deliberate praise and propaganda from the imperial court, such as the so-called "Wutong Shuangfeng" Yin brothers, who were the champions in their seventies, too child's play, too gimmicky. People like this who have spent their whole lives embarking on official careers, long-term depression and huge investment, have made them have the desire to quickly recover their costs, judging from their age, they probably only have time left to get a coffin for themselves, how can they have time to consider serving the court?

Quan Deyu, who was transferred back to the imperial court from Jingnan Jiedu to serve as Taichangqing, told Li Yu such a story. It is said that there is a general surnamed Zhao in Jingnan, and his daughter is married to a scholar, and the scholar has tried and failed, and he lives in Chang'an. The wife had to go back to her parents' house to live, and was teased by the whole family, and the daughter became extremely depressed. In the spring, the general surnamed Zhao took his family and relatives and friends from near and far out to go out on an outing, and at lunchtime, he deliberately surrounded this daughter with a curtain, thinking that she was embarrassed and didn't even give her a chance to show her face. When the banquet was going on, the fast horse came to report, and the son-in-law was a high school jinshi. The whole family was in an uproar, and the general hurriedly ordered the removal of the curtain of his daughter, so that relatives and friends could admire the face of Jinshi's wife, but the daughter walked out of the curtain by herself, and the strange thing was that the originally gray face suddenly had a brilliance.

Quan Deyu's career was smooth sailing, and he told this story as a anecdote, but Li Yu listened to it very heavily. I believe that everyone who has taken the college entrance examination will not leave a good impression on the college entrance examination, and the physical and psychological destruction of people is penetrating into the bone marrow. Moreover, Li Yu also believes that most of the talents cultivated in this way will become waste wood, which can be seen by referring to the imperial examination of the Song Dynasty with 500 people in one subject. The so-called "looking for chapters and excerpts from the old carving insects, I don't see the Liao Sea every year, where is the article crying autumn wind." Li Yu thought about it and recited the poem, and Quan Deyu was surprised when he heard this:

"Your Majesty is in the deep palace, and I can't imagine that even a cutting-edge poet like Li He knows the poems."

Li Yu did not answer. The story of Kwon De-yu and Li Jifu's suggestion to elect fewer officials gave Li Yu the idea that the age of the civil service examination (imperial examination) should be limited, as is the case in modern times.

But that's not the most pressing issue right now. Cui Qun and Wang Ya went to Luoyang with the crown prince successively, Li Jiang was promoted to the head of the household department, and the grain statistics department began to be in charge of Lu Wen and Liu Yuxi, a newly recruited Hanlin scholar and intellectual. Combining the intelligence from all sides, Lu Wen and Liu Yuxi came to the following conclusions:

Xu Fu, a member of the ancestral hall, will not make much progress in his envoy to Tibet. In the short term, Tang Tu will not be able to form an alliance, but he will reach an intention for peace. There is still the possibility that Tibet will not abide by the agreement, but it is limited to mobilizing troops and creating tension in some places, and under the strong constraints of both sides, the two sides will not break out into large-scale conflicts.

According to the report of the Statistics Department lurking in Huaixi, judging from Wu Shaocheng's diet and metabolism, Wu Lao's longevity is almost at the end. At present, the people's livelihood in Huaixi is withering, and the army has centrifugal tendencies. Moreover, at present, the autumn is high and cool, the osmanthus is fragrant, and the treasury of Yangzhou, Luoyang, Shangzhou, Jiangling and other places is sufficient. The results of the imperial court's training around the Huaixi armies have appeared, and it is a good time for the artillery to bombard his mother.

The first goal of the funeral for Vedan is the time to harvest.

At the beginning of August, because the garrison of western Beijing was unified. Gao Chongwen, the envoy of the Suining Festival, died of illness, and Li Yuan, the superintendent of Wuxue and the Duke of Qiguo, served as the envoy of the Suining Jiedu. At the same time, the imperial court officially announced that Wu Shaocheng moved against the current, alternating between drought and flood, did not want to comfort the people, but refocused on the army and the remnants of the people, making the people of Huaixi miserable, and conniving at the soldiers to harass the Quartet, since the beginning of the year, the Huaixi soldiers crossed the border to loot nearly 1,000 times, killed more than 800 innocent people, looted grain, livestock, money and property are countless, the sky is angry and resentful, and the court has received countless complaints from various towns and people. In order to appease the people and uphold justice, Wu Shaocheng was ordered to rectify and reduce the army, and the three illegal generals Wu Shaoyang, Wu Yuanji, Dong Chongzhen, father and son-in-law who participated in the plunder, as well as some military generals, were escorted to Luoyang for disposal.

This order seems to be to avoid the important and trivialize the important and favor the mastermind Wu Shaocheng. But the intentions are extremely vicious, both divisive and persecutive. Everyone knows that Wu Shaoyang is Wu Shaocheng's right-hand man, and Wu Shaocheng even recognizes Wu Shaoyang as his brother-in-law. Wu Shaocheng has always treated his subordinates very well, how can he let Wu Shaoyang bear the charge for himself? If Wu Shaoyang is sent, then Wu Shaocheng will betray his relatives and leave, but if he doesn't send Wu Shaoyang, then Huaixi is for Wu Shaoyang's father and son-in-law to start a war with the imperial court, what do other generals think?

This conspiracy is really shameless. However, because of Wu Shaocheng's strong control over Huaixi, the imperial court did not expect it to take effect now. Sure enough, Wu Shaocheng tore up the edict, cut off the lieutenant envoy's ear, and expelled the lieutenant envoy. Then the Huaixi army went out in all directions and plundered in all directions. Wu Shaoyang, father and son-in-law took the lead. On the second day of August, Wu Yuanji led his troops to slaughter Yecheng. Dong Chongzhi burned Huo Mountain.

On 10 August, the imperial court officially issued an edict to deprive Wu Shaocheng of his official position for the four major crimes of lawlessness, rebellion, remnants of the people, and lack of morality, and ordered Xuanwu, Zhongwu, Yiwu, Eyue, Shannan Dongdao, Jingnan, Jinshang, Heyang and other provinces to join the army to discuss. On the same day, an edict was issued, with the crown prince Li Chun as the marshal of the Huaixi Camp in Henan, Lu Zhen as the envoy of the Shannan Dongdao Jiedu and Tongping Zhangshi, and Han Hong as the deputy marshal of the south and north of the Huaixi Camp with the Xuanwu Jiedu as the commander of the army. The edict was issued with Li Shuo as the head of the march of Shannan Road, and Yan Qin as the deputy head of the army; With Adie Guangyan as the head of the Jin Shang Road march, Qiu Liangfu as the deputy head of the army; Wu Chongyin is the head of the march of Henan Road, and Wang Dahai is the deputy head of the army; Xue Ping was the head of the march of Huaidong Road, and Yi You (who was later replaced by Li Tingwei because of Ding's mother's worries) was the deputy commander; Raise 170,000 troops to attack Huaixi.

The interpretation of the era name of Xingzhi by the people of the time is that Xingzhi, Xingzhi, is to seek governance by raising soldiers.
