Chapter 61: Righteous Destruction of Relatives

A cold glint flashed in Li Yunxing's eyes, and his cold expression made everyone's hearts chill.

"Remember Your Majesty's teachings!" The ministers said in unison.

Li Yunxing smiled and nodded: "I believe you will make a wise choice. ”

Then, Li Yunxing said: "Third, it is about the selection of scholars in this imperial examination. ”

"In the past, hundreds of officials were selected by Zaifu, but this year's imperial examination requires three halls to take the exam. Hongu, General Lian Dae, and Yoo Jae-fu co-chaired and decided to hold a scientific expedition in the capital three months later. ”

"No matter where you come from, you can only learn martial arts. The civil officials went through a total of four subjects: books, poems, treatises, and fu, and the military generals were weightlifting, mounted archery, infantry shooting, horse pistols, and an additional military strategy. ”

"Those who pass the top three in the palace examination can enter the office and become the pillars of my dynasty."

When the ministers heard this, their faces were different.

The generals are okay, after all, over the years, the Wu Dynasty has implemented military service, and they can recruit brave men from the people to serve as a vanguard army.

As for the civil servants?

Many civil servants have shallow roots and no real materials, so they are very resistant to this kind of open competition.

Previously, Emperor Wu wanted to conduct a thorough scientific expedition many times, but was repeatedly obstructed by the ministers for various reasons.

But this time, Li Yunxing actually proposed the scientific examination again.

Once the disciples of the Hanmen sect passed the palace examination, they immediately carped and jumped into the dragon gate, and the future was great. But it also means that after these famous families, there will be fewer opportunities to enter the court as officials.

"Your Highness, this must not be done." A minister stepped forward and said.

Li Yunxing looked at him and said, "Oh? What's wrong? ”

"It's almost a matter of factionalism within the civil service. Such an open competition for the imperial examination will inevitably affect the balance between civil and military officials. The minister said in a deep voice, "Moreover, the military attache has always been unruly, what if there is a mess?" ”

If Li Yunxing wants to shake Liu Zhongqing's foundation, he can't just kill his siblings.

If the lifeblood of this court official is always in the hands of Liu Zhongqing, then no matter how many he kills, he will be like a hundred-legged beetle, dead but not stiff.

Therefore, if Li Yunxing wants to completely change the pattern of military generals and civilian officials, he must bring the imperial examination to power and fight openly.

"Wenchen and Wujiang compete separately, you don't have to worry about it."

"This palace believes that since he is a minister of the Wu Dynasty, he must not be afraid of competition. Wen Taowuluo, I believe that everyone here must be leaders from all walks of life. ”

"Unless, you think that the talents of the children of the nobility are not worth comparing."

Li Yunxing's voice fell, and the hall was silent.

Although he did not name names, everyone knew who he was addressed to.

The civil official's cheeks twitched slightly, his eyes flickered, and he looked a little hesitant.

"The ministers never meant that." Someone whispered in response.

At this time, many generals also stood up, "The minister also agrees with what His Royal Highness said, since it is a imperial examination, it should be compared to a superior, regardless of background." ”

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Military generals and civil officials should be in a straight line, so why should they be separated from each other?"

Seeing that all the ministers expressed their support, Li Yunxing showed a satisfied look.

At this moment, Liu Zhongqing suddenly stepped forward.

"The old minister has something to play."

This sentence made everyone couldn't help but be shocked.

Does Yoo Jae-fu still want to keep Su Tianyang? This doesn't make sense!

Li Yunxing was not very surprised, and smiled slightly: "What's the matter?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, now that General Lian is qualified for the position of Great Sima, if you go to Jingzhou to deal with the flood again, won't there be no one in charge of the court?"

Liu Zhongqing's words were extremely clever, seemingly worrying about the Wu Dynasty, but in fact, it was a hint that the crown prince should hand over the right to control the floods to him!

Li Yunxing is not ignorant of the truth of being able to retreat into advance.

Today, he issued two holy decrees in a row, and beheaded Su Tianyang, which has already severely refuted Liu Zhongqing's face.

"Rabbits bite when they are in a hurry", Li Yunxing is not unincompatible.

"Then, according to what Zaisuk sees, who should be sent?"

After Li Yunxing finished asking, his eyes fell on the many civil officials.

This person must have a certain prestige and be able to speak in front of local officials.

At the same time, it must be easy to control and be able to be dominated by Liu Zhongqing.

The most important thing is that the benefits of sending him must be greater than the benefits of letting Lian Zhan go.

Li Yunxing looked around, and there was only one person in his mind.

"The old minister recommended King Zhaoyang to go to Jingzhou." Liu Zhongqing said.

And so it was!

Li Yunxing sneered in his heart.

This Liu Zhongqing is a thousand-year-old fox, and he is waiting for him here.

The Jingzhou incident is indeed a troublesome matter, not only to be sympathetic to the people's feelings, but also to help rebuild.

But if King Zhaoyang goes, it is a completely different concept from Lian Zhan.

Lian Zhan is a general, subordinate to the Son of Heaven, and can only act according to orders.

But King Zhaoyang is a royal family, a clan, and one of the heirs to the throne.

If he made any merits, the people would not praise the emperor's kindness, but would only remember the great achievements of King Zhaoyang, and even think that King Zhaoyang was the most suitable one to be the prince.

In this way, it will be very unfavorable for him Li Yunxing.

But this is the case with the two-way game, where there are gains and losses. If you want to win, you naturally need to take some risks.

But if you don't win, you'll lose even more.

Li Yunxing quickly made a decision, he smiled slightly, and looked at Liu Zhongqing: "Lord Liu's recommendation is naturally believed by this palace. ”

This Su Zhaoyang and Su Miaoxue are both Su Tianyang's children, one is placed by his side, and the other wants to go deep into the hinterland of Jingzhou.

How could Li Yunxing let him get his wish easily.

"King Zhaoyang has been clothed and fed since he was a child, where does he know how to save the people, it is better to let him write a book first, list the method of resettlement of the victims, and various matters in detail, and wait until the palace reads it, and then decide what to do next."

"Obey."

The two sides have won each other's interests, so naturally there is nothing to entangle.

Another reason why Liu Zhongqing wanted Su Zhaoyang to go to Jingzhou in person was that he could use Su Zhaoyang to entrap Su Tianyang's old department.

When the time comes, it will be a trump card of the Liu family.

Therefore, Liu Zhongqing's trip to Jingzhou is bound to win.

And Li Yunxing took a fancy to Liu Zhongqing and was reluctant to let go of the fat in Jingzhou.

"Then Liu Zaifu, this Su Tianyang is your in-law, why don't you decide what to do with it?"

Liu Zhongqing's face instantly sank.

"The traitor Su Tianyang, deceived his superiors and subordinates, and was greedy for countless food and salaries, so he should be beheaded!"

Li Yunxing clapped his hands on the royal platform, not caring at all about Liu Zhongqing's black face like the bottom of a pot.

"Good! is worthy of being the chief assistant of the Wu Dynasty, and he killed his relatives with righteousness. ”

Su Tianyang's matter has been in a uproar.

Liu Zhongqing not only lost face, but also lost his heart, Li Yunxing deliberately let him kill his relatives in righteousness.

seems to be compassionate, but in fact it is a wake-up call for Liu Zhongqing.

"What do you think?" Li Yunxing looked around at everyone.

Everyone looked at each other, and after half a sound, one person finally stood up and said: "Yoo Jae-fu understands righteousness and is really a model for my generation. ”
