CHAPTER XXV
Since Ma Jin took power, he swept away the decadence of the previous emperors, and the regular early dynasty has also been restored.
However, the last dynasty was indeed miserable, not only the civil and military officials of the previous dynasty had to get up early in the morning, even he, the emperor, was no exception, so Ma Jin ordered to delay the time of the early dynasty to Chen. The time period of the previous dynasty was changed from one day to seven days.
In Fengming Palace, Ma Jin changed clothes and freshened up under the service of Zhou Qiang'er, and the emperor's honor guard outside Fengming Palace was already ready, and a large number of small eunuchs and guards stood outside the door waiting, holding their breath and concentrating, without saying a word, which further highlighted the supreme majesty of the royal family.
At this time, Zhou Qiang'er was waiting for Ma Jin to change his clothes, and her delicate face, which had just woken up not long ago, was still floating with two clusters of red, which was very attractive.
Last night, Ma Jin didn't fall asleep until one o'clock in the morning, and now it's six o'clock in the morning, which means that Ma Jin has only slept for more than three hours, but Ma Jin looks very energetic.
"Your Majesty didn't rest much yesterday, although the government is urgent, but you must also take care of your body......"
Zhou Qiang'er protested euphemistically against Ma Jin's behavior last night, Ma Jin smiled bitterly, and said: "I want to be lazy, but how can I have time, I have to decide everything in the court, and now the court situation is unstable and messy, how can I be free, if I want to be idle, I'm afraid it will take a while." Speaking of this, Ma Jin paused.
But in his heart, he thought that it was time to form an organization that could handle his daily affairs and be loyal, otherwise his dignified emperor would not even have time to do what he wanted to do every day.
Thinking of this, he sighed faintly, and said with some bitterness and hatred: "I understand why the ancient emperors love to be a faint king...... Alas, Mingjun is embarrassed. ”
Zhou Qiang'er hurriedly snorted twice: "Bah, Your Majesty is not a faint king, don't say such things in the future." Ma Jin looked at Xiao Nizi's nervous appearance, and felt a little funny in his heart, if he could be a bright king, who would want to be a faint king
In the past six months or so, Ma Jin has cleaned the court, pacified the internal strife and border troubles, and has shown extremely superb means in governing the country, which has greatly changed the impression of many courtiers on Ma Jin, the little emperor, of course, it will not take a short time to completely eliminate the previous impression.
But that's okay, Ma Jin's previous cowardice and mediocrity fell in the eyes of people with a heart, and naturally became an inspirational story of a young emperor who was cautious before he took power, lying on his salary and tasting his courage, waiting for the opportunity, etc., which will only make Ma Jin's image more lofty and give people an unfathomable feeling.
The difference between smart people and stupid people is that when they encounter abnormal things, stupid people will choose to accept them directly, while smart people like to speculate, and are good at brain supplements and associations, they will use their wisdom and wisdom to connect many abnormal and unreasonable phenomena before and after, and come up with a "reasonable" explanation.
Ma Jin can save a lot of effort to disguise for this, or there would not be such a famous saying in his previous life: "I like to deal with smart people." ”
Smart people are different, and even the reasons and motivations can make your brain clear, so that you yourself have to believe that this is the truth.
Ma Jin was also happy not to explain, which could deepen the unfathomable image of himself in the hearts of the ministers, so that if someone wants to do something, they must always think about Ma Jin's reaction, and dare not act rashly.
"Ah, Your Majesty looks really angry, and sure enough, the dragon robe is more flattering to Your Majesty......" Zhou Qiang'er dressed Ma Jin, stood away, tilted her head and admired her husband.
Although Ma Jin is young, his figure is long and straight, and after wearing the crown dress, the whole person looks even more heroic......
Not only Zhou Qiang'er, but also the palace maids who were waiting for her were also flushed, lowered their heads, and sometimes secretly raised their eyes to take a look, and then hurriedly lowered their heads.
There are very few people in their old Ma family, and the emperor is even more handsome, which is clearly recorded in the history books of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the imperial family of the Great Zhou Dynasty is handsome and beautiful.
Ma Jin took back the messy thoughts in his mind, looked at Zhou Qiang'er and smiled lightly, and went to the court.
…………
The sunlight broke through the dark clouds and sprinkled on the golden tiles of the Manna Temple, reflecting the golden brilliance, which was very dazzling, making the whole hall appear sacred and peaceful.
However, at this time, there was some tension in the hall, and the ministers above were divided into two factions.
"According to what the adults said, they just don't believe in the local officials? Do you think that the local officials are all scum who use the public for personal gain and eat vegetarian food? ”
"Lord Xing, don't gag, I don't mean that, I just think that it is more conducive to the selection of talents in the Shendu, after all, the Shendu is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, a place where humanity gathers, and the conditions are naturally not comparable locally."
"I think you are talking nonsense, Lord Chun Yu knows how many people in the world participate in the consideration, only in Yuzhou and 17 counties there are no less than thousands of people, not to mention the 16 states in the world, these people's food, clothing, housing and transportation, how do you want to arrange it? What if there are people with ill intentions? Where are so many people taking the exam? Have you ever thought about it? ”
"Hmph, Lord Xing, this is all nonsense, how can the Shendu be so big that it can't accommodate just a few candidates, as for food, clothing, housing and transportation, naturally the person who rushed to the exam is responsible for himself, is it difficult to ask the court to take money?
"You ......"
"Humph......"
"Minister, please Your Majesty Holy Judge!"
Xing Dao, the secretary of the ministry, heard the class and bowed down.
"Minister, please Your Majesty Holy Judge!"
Chun Yuyan followed closely behind and also went out to play.
The civil and military officials in the palace also stared at Ma Jin on the throne tightly, refusing to let go of Ma Jin's slightest expression, which was also something they were very concerned about.
Because they have a huge influence on the local area, there is much more room for maneuver up and down, but if it is held in the Divine Capital, then they will be a little shy from doing something, after all, there are more people paying attention to the feet of the Son of Heaven, and there is less room for maneuver.
Besides, they don't think that the examination can be held in the Shendu, the Great Zhou is too big, not only is the journey far away, but the cost on the way is not affordable for ordinary people, not to mention those poor scholars.
What is a Hanmen Shizi? It is said that the family has a little surplus wealth from a small and medium-sized landlord who reads, after all, in this era when books are more than a thousand gold, how can it be possible to read books if the family has no money.
Why did Ma Jin open the examination, naturally it was also for these scholars in the poor family, if they didn't have money or travel money and couldn't come to Shendu, wouldn't it be a joke?
