The Crown Prince I’m Raising Has Turned Evil

The emperor laughed, and then asked about her meritorious service in the border town, and how she defeated the rebels.

Xie Linlang took out the argument she had prepared long ago, saying that the rebels were very vulnerable because they were all hungry and tired after traveling for a long time, so she just used a small plan to break up the rebels with officers, soldiers and city residents. After killing them, it is impossible to know where they went after that.

The emperor nodded and didn't say anything. This is probably a common problem of all the high-ranking people in the capital. They only care about whether those people will pose a threat again, and don't care where they go after they break up.

After talking about meritorious deeds, the emperor talked about other things, and Xie Linlang also answered them one by one.

Soon, the emperor showed a little tiredness.

Seeing this, Xie Linlang said obediently that she could step down first.

The emperor waved his hand, which was regarded as a promise, and Xu Hui on the side quickly stepped forward to lead Xie Linlang, but before leaving, the emperor said suddenly.

"Lin Lang."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xie Linlang, who was about to exit the pavilion, stepped forward again and listened attentively.

The emperor looked her up and down. The young man in front of him was full of heroism and dazzling. Although she was young, she was unexpectedly calm, neither humble nor overbearing, such a good son, such a good minister... The emperor nodded, feeling that although there were many mistakes in his many decisions, But also right.

He chuckled softly, "Do you think I'm a good emperor?"

This... Xie Linlang felt that this was really not an easy question to answer.

The emperor in front of me has been on the throne for more than ten years. If it is said that his achievements... are not obvious, but it can be seen that he really wants to make a difference. It can be seen from his concentration of power that he is trying to get rid of the control of the family. Do what you say.

But freezing three feet is not a one-day cold, the big family controls the economic lifeline and a certain amount of military power, and all the courts are full of nobles.

Without an excellent mind, brilliant means and enough helpers, it is impossible to overturn this fate.

Obviously, the emperor in front of him still lacked a little bit.

Xie Linlang thought about it all, and said with a bow.

"Your Majesty's question should be judged by future generations. Lin Lang is in the middle of the game, so her thinking is inevitably biased."

The emperor laughed in a low voice, "You are still as good at talking as before. In fact, I understand even if you don't tell me. I am not a good emperor. Not to mention mediocre political achievements, and now I have a bad reputation for murder."

Xie Linlang was neither humble nor overbearing, "Your Majesty, you think too much. You are still the most enlightened emperor in Qin."

Hearing this, the emperor smiled, he was obviously in a good mood, and then waved at her.

"You step back, tomorrow morning, I will canonize you. In addition, after seeing the friends in the capital, you should go back to Xiangcheng early. This city is governed like a country. I also want to see it. If it is ruled by a wise man , what will it look like?"

His relaxed words and expectant eyes made Xie Linlang think about his words all the time on the way out of the palace.

"Eunuch Xu, what happened in the capital recently? Why do I feel that His Majesty has other meanings?"

Xie Linlang's words startled Xu Hui, he saw that the guards on the left and right did not pay attention to them, and the palace people behind him were far away, so he lowered his voice and said.

"Didn't the emperor tell you? It's not a secret... It was after that time that His Majesty suffered from insomnia every night. After Concubine Die came, the situation began to improve..."

Xu Hui babbled, his voice could not hide his worry, but Xie Linlang listened and probably figured out what was going on.

After the emperor killed Xia's family and executed Qin Jue, he couldn't sleep. Later, when he was emotionally unstable, he killed several officials, which made people panic.

It wasn't until Die Concubine appeared that the situation improved a lot, but Die Concubine's face was too suspicious. The officials who had helped the emperor participate in the Xia family massacre were a little uneasy and asked the emperor to execute Die Concubine.

But the emperor's attitude was very firm this time, and he had killed several sons of officials in the clan before, conflicts had long been aroused, and the situation in the court became tense all at once!

Under such circumstances, not only did the emperor not restrain himself, but he suddenly set up the "Student Hall of the Son of Heaven", and specially accommodated commoner students who had failed in previous years. His motivation was obvious!

This made Xie Linlang's heart skip a beat!

Is this too messy? !

The original intention of the imperial examination system she proposed was to weaken the aristocrats and break the monopoly situation, but this must be a gradual process, ranging from ten years to decades or even generations.

This is why she asked the emperor to run the "National Academy", but not the emperor.

The emperor teacher can gain fame and benefits from it, but there are so many people in the school, and none of them are loyal to the emperor teacher, or have not passed the exam. At least he has learned the culture monopolized by the aristocratic family.

And they can't enter the court, and the only way to make a living is to be other people's counselors, or to open private schools to teach. In this way, they are equivalent to indirectly breaking the cultural barriers, allowing some ordinary people to have the opportunity to obtain "higher education".

This idea is very subtle and takes time to ferment, so not many people can perceive it.

Those aristocratic families only saw the benefits obtained by the emperor's teacher, so they followed suit one after another. It is reported that many national schools have been opened in the capital, and her plan is going well.

But the emperor's fate is different. The purpose of the family's founding of the country school is to harvest talents and earn fame.

And the purpose of the emperor to open the Son of Heaven's Student Hall is to take away the humble children they have cultivated and promote them to share the cake of the family. One can imagine the reaction of those families.

Too aggressive behavior will inevitably lead to unpredictable consequences, so after hearing Xu Hui's words, the smile on Xie Linlang's face disappeared and turned serious.

Xu Hui didn't say anything else. He only said that the emperor protected the Die concubine, killed several courtiers, and set up the "Emperor's Disciple" school. The status is wrong.

If the previous emperor was a cruel outburst after being suspicious to the extreme, then now, he hides all the darkness under his peaceful appearance. He seems to be much calmer, but only those who serve by his side know, what happened Not so.

The current emperor is still less stable than when the Xia family was destroyed, this makes him very disturbed...

Soon, the palace gate arrived.

Xie Linlang appeased Xu Hui to continue, and left the palace. After walking out of the palace gate, Xie Linlang couldn't help but look back at the vermilion city wall, feeling a little dazed.

She seemed to have understood the deep meaning of the emperor. He let her go because she didn't want to involve herself in the following disputes and conflicts. People who hurt their interests are likely to target her.

In short, the capital is indeed a place of right and wrong.
