"Shhh——! It turns out that this is the feeling of using the immortal method! ”

After disarming the shadow clone and digesting the information transmitted by the clone, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but take a breath.

This feeling is really a little exciting for him who was still a mortal two days ago.

"Hurry up and report back to my mother."

Wei Zhongxian said as he walked outside the house.

He had just returned to the capital with Bi Liwang, and it was naturally impossible for him to know what had happened in the capital these days, and after disarming the shadow clone and digesting the information transmitted by the shadow clone, of course he had to rush back to Bi Liwang's side to report.

"Niangniang, although the matter has not been completed yet, at least half of it has been completed."

After returning to Bi Liwang's side, Wei Zhongxian hurriedly said.

"Half...... What is the meaning? ”

Bi Liwang asked rhetorically, a little worried in his heart.

Having never been serious since she was a child, she often mingled with some celebrities and idle people, but she knew how difficult it was to start a newspaper.

Starting a newspaper seems simple at first glance, but it seems to have become a must-have routine for every dancer.

But in reality? In modern times, starting a newspaper is very simple, yes! But what about antiquity?

Ancient printing technology was not as good as modern times, and it was very difficult to start a newspaper. Especially in ancient times, when there was no printing technology, it was difficult to start a newspaper!

Modern printing technology, typesetting technology, printing equipment, tools, in ancient times, there was no one!

You can only start from 0, starting with the parts of each device.

This is not an ordinary difficulty...... Even if you can make parts and start with them, where do you get the tools to make parts?

Put a modern scientist in ancient times, and he can't spell out a computer from scratch!

In the beginning, Bi Liwang ordered the creation of a newspaper, and those experts gave half a month for this reason.

It's easy to recruit newspaper employees or make the newspaper run normally, but the hard part is the production of equipment.

"The equipment of the newspaper run by Niangniang has been assembled, and if you want to make the newspaper run, you can do it."

"It's just that when you ordered the newspaper to cover the large and small cities near the capital, this thing could not be done, although the equipment of the newspaper office has been assembled, but it has not been transported to other towns at this time, and it is still on the way."

"It will take seven days to reach nearby towns at the earliest. If you want to cover all the Daming boundaries north of the Yangtze River, it will take three months at the earliest. ”

Bi Liwang immediately thought of something and said in a continuous voice.

"Wait, so that's it...... At least for now, there is still a local newspaper that can be operated immediately, right? where we stand at our feet. ”

"Yes."

Wei Zhongxian said.

"It's good, I guess I'll have fun watching it tomorrow. By the way, has something happened in the capital these days? And your eunuchs. ”

"Nothing has happened in the capital recently. There is no bad reaction from people to your monopoly on power, but it may also be because the court officials don't have time to make trouble. ”

"Because there is still half a year to go before the imperial examination...... Empress. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Zhongxian's face suddenly showed a look of evil, and he smiled with a little Alzheimer's.

"Imperial Examination?!"

Bi Liwang couldn't help but smile.

Imperial Examination...... Writing the imperial examination, reading it as a troublemaker.

The imperial examination is a big deal!

Are there many officials in the capital? Many! And not only in ancient times, there were many officials in the capital, but in modern times, there were also many officials in the imperial capital.

'If you don't know how much money you don't know, if you don't know how little money you don't know, if you don't know how small the emperor is', this saying that once appeared in the Spring Festival Gala is enough to describe the number of officials in the imperial capital.

To put it mildly, sometimes even a brick thrown out can hit four or five officials!

In ancient times, whenever the imperial examination came, it also meant that the officials' 'wallets' would usher in a 'feast' again, and after the feast, the wallets would be at least many times fatter!

This is also the reason why the Ming officials have been very peaceful recently, and have not expressed opposition to Bi Liwang's monopoly on the government.

They're busy making money, so how can they have time for that?

And if you want to ask about the source of the 'feast', I am afraid you have to start from the Han Dynasty, when the imperial examination system did not appear.

In fact, before the Sui and Tang dynasties, when the imperial examination had not yet appeared, the selection and replacement of officials in various dynasties were monopolized by some aristocratic families.

Just like Yang Su, the prime minister of the Sui Dynasty, he was born in the Hongnong Yang family, and his ancestors have been officials for generations. His grandfather, Yang Xuan, was an official to the Northern Wei Dynasty Auxiliary General and Counselor; His father, Yang Fu, was the assassin of Fenzhou in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

It can be said that they have been officials for generations! And he is still a 'tenth generation official'! In comparison, the modern second generation of officials is simply weak!

Although there were other electoral systems in the Han Dynasty before this, trying to break the monopoly of the family, they were useless at all!

Because the election system of the Han Dynasty was 'inspection', 'requisition' and 'filial piety', recommended by officials, the emperor recruited and filial piety to his parents, and acted honestly as officials.

But in fact, behind these three election methods, the family can have a foot in it! In the end, there were even cases of bribing the family and asking the family to recommend themselves to the court as officials.

And such a bribe is the beginning of the feast!

After the Sui and Tang dynasties, when the family could no longer control the election of officials, the guests at the banquet changed from the family to the high-ranking officials in the court.

Later, after listening to Wei Zhongxian's report on the eunuchs, Bi Liwang left Wei Zhongxian's mansion and returned to the palace.

In Wei Zhongxian's report, the eunuch party has been quite peaceful in the past two days, and there has been no disobedience to Wei Zhongxian.

Of course, it is also possible that Wei Zhongxian did not find out.

But that doesn't matter, now, Bi Liwang has completely arranged his net, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty are already turtles in the urn......

As long as Bi Liwang does not die, no one can escape.

After returning to the dormitory, Bi Liwang first checked the twists and turns that his clones had dealt with in the past two days, and then lifted the clones and summoned ten clones again.

The folds are handled very well, and there is nothing unpleasant to see, and the processing style is the same as himself, which is worthy of being a doppelganger.

And summoning the clone again is to digest the experience of the previous clone when dealing with the twists, after all, such experience is rare.

After dealing with the affairs in the palace, Bi Liwang went straight to bed.

Although the sun is still shining at this time, everything is ready, just wait for the time......
