After wearing a book, I fell in love with the villain eunuch

Chapter 85 The Imperial Examination System

When Pei Lin opened the door and came in in the morning, the little one on the bed hadn't gotten up yet. She rubbed her eyes drowsily and raised her upper body, "Good morning, sir."

Looking at the few quilts left on the bed and the mess on the ground, Pei Lin helplessly clicked his tongue twice.

When he walked over and touched her little hands, which were cold, his expression darkened.

"How old are you, my empress? You still sleep under the quilt?"

Bai Yan looked around confusedly. No wonder she felt cold. It turned out that the quilt had fallen off.

She smiled innocently at him to please him, causing Pei Lin to lose his mind.

"Shoes, shoes."

Bai Yan crossed her little feet and pointed at him at the two shoes far away on the ground, one to the left and the other to the right.

Pei Lin stood aside with his arms folded, the expression on his face was "I am here to serve you?"

Bai Yan snorted coquettishly and raised her face seriously to act coquettishly at him. She didn't want to jump up and down to pick up the shoes, and the ground was so cold.

"A kiss."

Pei Lin stretched out his face, and Bai Yan held his face and kissed him passionately.

He picked up her shoes with satisfaction and squatted on the side of the bed, waiting for her to stretch her feet.

"Well, I'll do it myself, just let it go."

Bai Yan shrank back in embarrassment. She just wanted to ask him to pick up her shoes. There was no need to help her put them on!

But he grabbed her little foot. Her foot was as small as a human being, and Pei Lin played with it with some interest. The flesh was round, but when he applied force, he could still see the veins and veins on the arch of the foot. It felt good, so he pinched it casually.

A pinch.

The blush spread from her neck to her whole body, and it was so hot that it almost stopped smoking.

His hands were slightly cold and he held her feet, which were still a little itchy. Bai Yan resisted moaning and quickly pulled her feet away, put on her shoes and socks, and threw herself into his arms shyly.

The whole movement was done in one go, and Pei Lin didn't even react.

Bai Yan was getting tired of being kissed and hugged every day, and was thinking about some other way to play with Mr. Pei.

She racked her brains and couldn't figure it out, so she decided to think about it later. She also made an appointment with Qi Huan in the afternoon.

Just after lunch, Bai Yan was planning how to escape from him.

"My queen, do you have something to say?"

Pei Lin didn't look up. From just now, he noticed that she was hesitant to speak and held back her words again.

Bai Yan stirred her hands and bit her lips hesitantly. She must discuss this matter with Qi Huan before begging him.

When he didn't get an answer, Pei Lin put down the pen in his hand and raised his head, "What do you want to do?"

"I want to leave for a while, just for a little while. I will definitely be back during dinner."

"Go ahead."

Bai Yan said in surprise. He agreed so quickly. He wasn't going to ask what he wanted to do. The sun was rising in the south.

Satisfied that she still looked stupid, Pei Lin smiled calmly and said, "Your Majesty is not in jail, so I can still imprison you."

She had things that belonged to her and she didn't have to tell him, just as he had things that he couldn't tell her.

Although Pei Lin wanted to control everything about her, he was also afraid that he would annoy her by taking too much control, so he simply asked less questions so as not to cause trouble for himself.

"Well, I'll be back soon."

Bai Yan rushed over, kissed him, and ran out quickly.

It was really cold outside, and from a distance she could see Qi Huan sitting obediently in the pavilion with ventilation on all sides, waiting.

Seeing her coming, they all crossed their arms and saluted her, "Your Majesty."

She didn't like him calling her Queen Mother, and he didn't want to use this title to call her who was similar in age. The two were more than polite, but a little less casual.

"Your Highness."

Bai Yan sat down opposite him, Qi Huan poured her a cup of hot tea, and thoughtfully waited for her to drink before asking, "Do you have something to discuss with me, your Majesty?"

"Yes," it was getting late, and Bai Yan did not give in. "Nowadays, the officials in the court are all from rich families, and most of them buy and sell official power. Although there is an express prohibition, it hardly has any effect."

Qi Huan put down the cup in his hand and gestured to the people around him to get down.

He didn't expect what she was going to say today, and he didn't know why she chose to say it to him.

Bai Yan's idea is very simple. Nowadays, the Dog Emperor has no effect at all. The officials below are executing Pei Lin's orders meticulously and do not dare to be careless at all.

She might be able to influence Pei Lin's opinion and pull Da Qi towards the right path.

But she needs smart people in the court, not a bunch of drunkards. Her brains are not enough, and she has a bunch of rubbish, and Daqi's rule is even more chaotic and unorganized.

She now needs this country to come back to life as a backer to protect her and Pei Lin.

Qi Huan is a scholar and must know more smart people than she does.

Her initial idea was to establish an imperial examination system so that children from poorer families could have the opportunity to join the officialdom, and quickly let smart blood flow in here.

After listening, Qi Huan frowned hard and didn't speak for a long time.

Bai Yan stared at him seriously, and waited for a long time for Qi Huan to speak hesitantly, "I do know a lot of people in the school, but your Majesty wants them to join the officialdom immediately?"

"No, wait until the spring and take the exam together. Only those who pass the exam will be qualified."

"I'm afraid, no one will participate."

"Why?"

Bai Yan was puzzled and surprised and asked, "It's not like they won't give salary. The harvest will be guaranteed despite droughts and floods, so why don't you want to do it?"

"They are all the labor force in the family. If they leave, how will the whole family live?"

"Salary."

Qi Huan shook his head again, "I don't know what I know. Nowadays, food is in short supply. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy food. They would rather farm and suffer hardship than be an official."

What to do, Bai Yan bit her lip and thought deeply. There is no food. If there is no food, how can we buy it from other countries at a high price? Then Daqi is still under the control of others. Her head is about to burst thinking about it.

At this time, Qi Huan spoke to attack her again, "My dear, the first emperor may not agree. Secondly, touching the current group of officials would be tantamount to touching all the interests behind them. The situation of those who promote the imperial examination will not be the same."

You should know if I tell you more. Third, if you really want to implement it, you will need money, a lot of money. Fourth, after they enter the court, they will also receive the imperial decree from their father, and they cannot act in private. This matter must be considered in the long run."

He restrained himself a bit and didn't directly tell her that it was completely impossible and to stop fantasizing.

Bai Yan sighed helplessly, as beautiful as her imagination was, reality was so cruel.

She was still thinking too naively, and her passion was suddenly poured out. She lowered her head in silence and held the cup in her hand.

"Why did the empress suddenly think of such a thing?"

Qi Huan really didn't understand why she had this sudden idea, and he was extremely surprised when he heard it today. Although it was indeed a great thing, due to local conditions, Da Qi was destined to be unable to implement it.

Bai Yan turned her head and looked into the distance. The white snow covered everything, so boundless and beautiful.

The palace was really beautiful, just like what she imagined when she read the book, but it was much different from the ancient times in her mind.

She thought that one day she would travel back to a place like the prosperous Tang Dynasty, which was prosperous, gorgeous, and full of people. She could use all the beautiful adjectives she knew to describe it.

But what she saw was the incompetence of the emperor, the officials bullying the subordinates and flattering the superiors, corruption and enjoyment, and the whole country lifeless, waiting to be banned and overthrown.

There was singing and dancing in the harem, and the food and clothing were extremely luxurious. The illusion of harmony made her mistakenly think that this country still had some foundation.

After asking Wang Lai yesterday, she found out that all the money was obtained by squeezing the people, and even used the money to support the army.

"Your Highness, I once had a dream. This dream is very beautiful. There is no high or low life. Everyone can have enough food and clothing. With order and law maintained, bad people will be punished, and good people will get their due rewards. Army

They will protect the people and will not be used to smash, smash, loot or kill. The people trust and love the army."

Qi Huan listened blankly and asked softly for a long time, "Is there such a country?"

"Um."

He has never seen it, but she lives in a place like this.

Bai Yan looked into the distance and felt homesick for the first time.
