Chapter 168: Ruling the World
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was shocked.
A fierce reader, he has seen a lot.
There are many people who scold him as an emperor all day long.
But the strength of others is on the premise of not affecting their own interests.
Don't look at the scholars who scold the court every day for being dark and the emperor is stupid, but if you let him be an official and let him go to the imperial examination, people can run faster than rabbits.
This is called standing and earning money, not only scolding you, but you also have to give him fame and black hats.
But this cares Shao Ning...... Is your brain a little confused?
Crazy?
You came to play this set of heavens and didn't board the ship, but it really delayed your life! If this does not pass the palace examination, it is not said that it will cut off the hope of entering the first class, or even the jinshi will not be granted.
The name of a tribute is just a little higher than the status of a lifter.
If you do this, you will be delayed for life!
The Emperor of the Apocalypse's face was very ugly, but he still said, "I know." β
As he spoke, the temple test continued.
Wei Zhongxian stood up at this time and began to put the question.
More than 200 tributes stood in front of the case in this main hall, and one by one they had already prepared pen and ink.
Immediately, Wei Zhongxian's shrill voice echoed in the hall: "Question: On governing the world." β
Hearing this question, the tributes couldn't help but be stunned.
Because this question can be described as a clichΓ©.
How to govern the world, the predecessors have discussed it many times, but they didn't expect that the palace exam of this department would even be so perfunctory.
Soon, however, people began to pick up pens.
Because although the topic is old, but I want to write a flowery strategy, time is a big problem, if you delay time, it is inevitable to regret it for life.
Liu Ruozai, the Gongshi, was overjoyed at this time, and the opportunity came.
Although he will try to stumble, which will hit him a little, but this time he is very sure, after all, he has been nurtured by his family for a long time, and his articles are well written, this kind of strategy can be said to be his forte.
Full of confidence, he began to write down his thoughts word by word.
While writing, he was smug, and he felt that he was only afraid that he was one step away from the champion.
In fact, these tributes didn't know that the reason why the Emperor of the Apocalypse took this topic was to find the answer in this strategy.
Although the topic of how to govern the world is a clichΓ©, in fact, there are many ways to ...... But it's just talk, empty and boring.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse now has a son, and he is now thinking about how to govern the world, naturally, he hopes to come up with this question, no matter what, these tributes are dragons and phoenixes among people, maybe someone ...... I can find out for him.
Time passed quickly, and by noon quietly, the eunuchs had collected the scrolls on time, and then the tributes took their leave.
After a few days, after the emperor has read the test papers, he will arrange the ranking.
The ranking of the palace examination is actually closely related to the future prospects of the candidates.
If you can enter the second class, you will have a great chance to enter Hanlin and rise to prominence in the future.
But if it is the top three, it will be miserable, not only will it be teased by the jinshi on the same list, but also generally watch politics in the six departments, that is, after the internship called by the post-secular name, it will be sent to the states and counties, starting from the county, and this life may be trapped in the state and county forever.
So after the exam, the candidates were all nervous, and they thought of the guy who was very busy now and didn't have time to come to the palace exam...... Originally, someone wanted to make fun of Shao Ning for a few words, but suddenly found that there seemed to be no way to speak......
You say that he climbed the big tree of the Zhang family, that he is flattering, that he has no backbone, but ...... People don't even want a jinshi or even a champion who can be easily obtained, do you still deserve to laugh at him?
So the people automatically ignored the unlucky fellow, and each anxiously waited for the final fateful result.
After the palace test, the Emperor of the Apocalypse felt as if he had delayed a lot of things because of the palace test today, so after a short rest, he summoned the minister to the court to discuss, and what he wanted to discuss was still disaster relief.
Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, but the ministers still had to gather, the ministers were sad and miserable.
They can't wait to criticize the Emperor of the Apocalypse again, Your Majesty is abusing the minister!
It was not until the third watch that the Emperor of the Apocalypse returned to the palace without getting enough of it.
He was too tired, just thinking of the current so many victims, although the entire capital has solved the hidden dangers in Guanzhong, it has also made the capital a powder keg, once the imperial court is not governed in time, it will be a big deal.
So he tossed and turned, and he couldn't sleep.
Until the early morning of the next day, he summoned the cabinet members, as well as the six scholars, the squires, and the servants to come to the audience.
Huang Liji felt that he couldn't stand it anymore.
Your Majesty is still young, and your body can still be tossed, but the old man is over sixty years old, and now he can doze off when he stands, can Your Majesty not hold any more court meetings?
But there was no way, because they found that although the Emperor of the Apocalypse had bags under his eyes, he was still in good spirits, and he asked, "How is the relief in each county now?" β
However, Li Qiyuan, the secretary of the household department, took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, there is no chaos in the counties. β
The Emperor of the Apocalypse nodded: "This disaster victim is endless, or I don't feel at ease, I have read the reports of these days, but I don't know why someone attacked Xinxian, the last time Xinxian controlled the water, it was very good." β
At this moment, many people fell silent.
However, Liu Hongxun, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said: "Your Majesty, that's not necessarily the case, for example, this time, the flood of victims into Wancheng County and Daxing County is the most, and the new county is less." Not only that, but the minister did hear that there were indeed officials in Xinxian County who were suspected of seeking benefits for themselves in the name of relief. The minister did not dare to assert the truth of this matter, but it was not groundless. β
After listening to Liu Hongxun's words, the Emperor of the Apocalypse looked anxious, but he still felt that it was impossible, but he didn't know the actual situation, and it was not easy to say anything.
On the Dongchang side, there have been some investigations, and it seems that the Zhang family forced the victims to work......
The Emperor of the Apocalypse frowned in annoyance, and suddenly said, "Do you believe it?" β
At this time, Huang Liji stood up and made peace with a smile: "Your Majesty, after all, this is just a small section, now the main thing is not to have a large number of starvations, so as not to breed trouble, as for other things, the minister thinks that it should be put away." β
Sun Chengzong stood up and said: "The old minister has learned some things these days, and it is better to see it than to hear it, rather than sit here and talk about it, the dispute is right and wrong, in fact, as long as you look at it, you can know it, and the minister is willing to follow His Majesty's will to go to the counties to have a look." β
After hearing this, the Emperor of the Apocalypse felt that this was very reasonable, so he said, "I also have this intention, but ...... Master Sun goes, it is better for me to go and see it in person, otherwise, even if someone has seen it, others don't believe it, it will be in vain, besides, Zhuqing...... Now there are so many hungry people in the capital, I can't rest assured if I don't look at it. β
The character of the Emperor of the Apocalypse has always been very perverse in the eyes of hundreds of officials.
Therefore, for the request made by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, everyone did not feel strange.
Huang Liji smiled and said: "I'm afraid that the labor will move the people, but it will bring unnecessary trouble to the counties." β
"Why not?" The Emperor of the Apocalypse continued: "There is no need for fanfare, and there is no need for so many escorts, my bow and horse are skillful...... Let's do it, let Wei Banban arrange it. β
"Your Majesty." Liu Hongxun, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was a little inexplicably angry.
You are about to leave the palace every once in a while, have you ever asked me, the minister in charge of etiquette, is this like a word?
"The Qing family wants to persuade me?" Emperor Apocalypse said lightly: "But it's okay, then let's continue to discuss, there are still many things to discuss today, and you must be prepared, there is no three watches...... I will not let Zhu Qing go. β
The Emperor of the Apocalypse said it very seriously, and he didn't mean to joke at all.
Liu Hongxun was dumbfounded for a while and was silent.
And the faces of the others were obviously a little unnatural.
, compared to the king not early dynasty, now everyone agrees that the king is better not to be an early dynasty, in the past, all ministries could decide for themselves, but now His Majesty asks about everything, and the good and decent Shangshu has become a miscellaneous official.
What's more, in this meeting from morning to night, which minister can participate in such a meeting, which one is not a gray-haired old man? Your Majesty can stand it, but the old ministers can't stand it.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse saw that Liu Hongxun was silent, so he raised his eyebrows and gave Wei Zhongxian a look: "Wei Companion, go and prepare." β
Wei Zhongxian is the best at doing this kind of thing.
In the end, the plan he chose was to go out on patrol in micro-clothes, and then arranged more than 100 guards.
Of course...... On the Dongchang side, they have been secretly ordered to start monitoring the streets and alleys, just in case.
In this way, the emperor can set off with the ministers who accompany him, wearing regular clothes, and do not have to go out of the palace from the Daming Gate, but from the noon gate, first take the car, and then change the sedan chair, and let the factory guards secretly sort out the route along the way.
Half an hour later, the Emperor of the Apocalypse, dressed in regular clothes, took his ministers to Dongshi.
Dongshi is the most lively place, belonging to Daxing County, but here, it has long been crowded with unkempt victims.
The weather is still hot, so most of these victims are huddled in the alleys, and they are unclothed, which is shocking to see.
However, the officials of Daxing County still did some things, after all, the imperial court made so many decrees, one by one stricter, so in this East City, there is a special porridge tent, and there are dozens of servants guarding the tent at this time...... It happened to be time for the meal, and someone sounded the gong in the porridge tent.
So from all directions, the victims with yellow faces and thin muscles gathered together to help the old and the young.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse only sat in the sedan chair, looking at everything outside the sedan chair, he frowned deeply, and couldn't help but be stunned!
These people with Guanzhong accents are in a worse situation than he imagined!
