The Tyrant’s Beloved Empress
Chapter 119:
A few days after An Changqing’s birthday banquet, he entered the second half of February, which is when the test will start. +++ Catino Novel Network www.wuxiaspot.com
Xiao Zhige ordered Yushi doctor and Taichangsiqing to be the main examiners. The examination was conducted at the Yejing Gongyuan. A total of three examinations were required. The first test will be taken on February 25, and there will be another test every three days thereafter. The last test will only be completed on the first day of March.
As early as around the Spring Festival, Yejing inns, large and small, were filled with students from all over the country.
Since Xiao Zhige became the throne, tax exemption, dismissal of corrupt officials, all states and counties have implemented benevolent governance and cultivation, which has restored a lot of people's hearts from the fall of the royal family in Daye, and there are also many talented people who are discouraged by the muddy officialdom and rekindle. With enthusiasm and ambition, one after another came to participate in this Enke. This year, the number of enrolled students in Enke was much more than that in the previous years. According to the examination papers sent from various places, there were many outstanding students among them.
Because Zhou Helan also participated in the imperial examination this time, An Changqing was concerned about the Encord. After the dispersal of the dynasty, he talked to Shaoqing of Taichang Temple still with emotion: "Nowadays, you can see scholars wearing scholar robes in Yejing streets and alleys."
Taichang Temple Shaoqing also sighed: "In the first few years, I didn't see such a lively scene."
The two looked out from the restaurant’s private room. Half of the restaurant’s lobby was filled with young people. Most of them were young people. They gathered in one place to talk and talk about it, not to mention it, but it was another lively scene.
With these ambitious students, Daye has become more and more prosperous every year.
An Changqing said: "Taichang Temple Qing also told me yesterday that there were too many people who went to Beijing for the exam this time, and the inn rental yard was full, and there were still many shy people who had nowhere to live. Discuss with me that the shantang should be temporarily vacant to accommodate these people who have nowhere to stay."
In the past few years, the situation in Daye was not good, the localities were poor and weak, and the people had a problem. Nowadays, although many poor people have made up enough money to go to Beijing for examinations, in order to save some money, in the cold spring. In the fading season, I actually slept at the gate of the Gongyuan at night, waiting for the Gongyuan to release the card into the examination room on the 24th.
There are many such poor candidates. Taichang Siqing saw it accidentally, worried that these candidates would not be able to bear the test and fall ill in the examination room, so he raised the matter with An Changqing to test his tone-now he can still be accused. The ministers with important tasks are not mediocre generations, but Xiao Zhige is not a gentle-tempered emperor. The relationship between emperors and ministers still needs to be adjusted, and officials will inevitably be a little unwilling to do things. They are all used to going to An Changqing's place to find out if they are not sure about the holy will like this. If King Goose doesn't object, he can raise it at the court meeting.
Taichang Temple visited him yesterday, but there will be time to raise it in the court in the future. It happened that today Shaoqing of Taichang Temple invited him to drink, and An Changqing responded: "I will say hello to the shantang, and then send some rice from the rice shop under my name. You will first order someone to The elders are well settled. As for the zhezi, you can make up later. Your Majesty is also in favor of this matter."
Taichang Temple Shaoqing toasted him a glass of wine, and smiled openly: "Then there will be Lord Lao, I will go and ask someone to do this. There are still two or three days to make these people live better, and they can do well. Prepare for the exam."
After that, even if you have succumbed to An Changqing, you must first go back to the official office to write an official document and ask Zhang Bang to make an announcement.
It's just that he just opened the door of the room when he heard a loud noise coming from outside. The people who were originally talking about the strategy of governing the country didn't know when they started to quarrel. Vaguely mixed with the words "Goose King", "Fox Mei" and "Net Gu Renlun".
Taichang Temple Shaoqing glanced at the private room, carefully closed the door, and walked closer to the noisy place. Only then did he understand what these people were arguing about.
It turned out that there was a quarrel between a few of Yanzhou and Bingzhou. Because the feudal lord was in Yanzhou when the saint was king, and he governed Yanzhou very well during his tenure, these Yanzhou scholars are proud of this. There are also many mentions when discussing with other practitioners. Just mentioning the emperor can’t avoid the Goose King, especially An Changqing’s days in Yanzhou, sending grain and grass thousands of miles, defending the city with soldiers to fight Beidi, and then making irrigation carts and formulating various policies for the benefit of the people... Whether it was Yanzhou soldiers or ordinary people, he was very supportive of him.
Only this time, when several Yanzhou emperors talked about the various actions of the emperor and king goose in Yanzhou in the early years, two emperors who came from the same state ridiculed unconvincedly, "It's just that the (color) waiter fox charms the Lord ".
This can be regarded as stabbing a hornet's nest. In the lobby of this restaurant, everyone can hear clearly wherever they say something. What's more, there are many people who are curious to listen to the Yanzhou thing that the master said.
As soon as these two Bingzhou Juzi had finished speaking, the Juzi in the counties and counties surrounding Yejing were not convinced and stood up angrily and accused them of being "white-eyed wolves." Those who were the first to talk about Yanzhou officials were also very angry, and spoke more vulgarly. First they listed the emperor and the Yanwang benevolent, and finally unceremoniously scolded them as "pull up a bowl and eat (肉rou) and put it down." Chopsticks scold mother".
The new emperor has been on the throne for half a year, if at the beginning there were people who criticized him for not allowing him to dominate the Goose King in the harem, but after the Goose King participated in politics and did nothing to the benefit of the people, "the fox charms the Lord" The argument gradually disappeared. In the past six months, even the blind could see the emperor's love, he really loves the King Goose. The King Goose didn't leave any handle to Yu Shi, and he did nothing to blame, even the officials in the court gradually convinced him. Few people talked about the affairs between them. On the contrary, more and more folk narratives of this play were spreading.
Suddenly hearing this "fox charms the lord" statement again, everyone doesn't have to fry the pot.
Not only the first few Yanzhou Juzi, but also many Yejing people also criticized them. The two Bingzhou Juzi did not expect that a single sentence would elicit so many accusations, and they were also angry and embarrassed: "If it's not the fox that confuses people, why are you all protecting him? A man enters and exits the harem unclearly, but Isn’t Israel serving people? Besides, this is not what we said, and the people of Binzhou say the same. If you are not convinced, go to Binzhou to find people to argue. Right now, you are just relying on the crowd to bully the two of us. That's it!"
After the two of them finished talking, another Bingzhou Juzi couldn't help but argued: "They are not wrong, and what you said about building a shantang without tax...We haven't seen it before. On the contrary, a lot of new titles have been added on the top, saying that your majesty is going to build a palace garden for King Goose."
The lobby of the restaurant was so noisy that Shaoqing of Taichang Temple felt that something was wrong as she listened, frowning and turning to find An Changqing. Just before he went to find someone, he heard a clear voice from behind: "Bingzhou will add taxes and build a palace for the King Goose? Is this true?"
The noisy lobby was quiet for a while, everyone subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound, and saw a tall and handsome young man slowly coming out of the elegant room, although he only wore an inexpensive moonwhite robe, there was no extra burden on his whole body. Ornaments, but the brilliance of that temperament is not an ordinary person at first glance. Someone in the lobby also recognized An Changqing, but seeing him condensed, he didn't dare to speak out.
An Changqing had heard the noise outside, thinking that something went wrong, to find out, but she didn't want to hear what she said. He walked up to the Bingzhou Juzi who had just spoken, and repeated it again: "You just said it, but the truth? If it is a lie, it may affect your future."
Na Bingzhou Juzi was photographed by his imposing manner, and was silent for a while. But he was helped by his words and said: "He is right. The officers and soldiers who collect taxes here also said the same, saying that your majesty is fascinated by beauty (color), and he wants to levy taxes to build palaces..." Speaking of this, my eyes are red: "My family is poor, and all the entanglements that my parents saved for me have been conscripted. Now the silver liang for the exam is still borrowed by the whole village. If you don’t believe it, you can find it. Other Bingzhou scholars to verify!"
An Changqing frowned slightly. It's no wonder the resentment of these uncles was so great. He calmed down his mind and explained to him: "When your Majesty became the throne, he ordered the exemption of three-year land tax and never levied taxes. It is nonsense to levy taxes to build palaces, and I will talk about it. Your Majesty will go to Binzhou to verify and verify."
He probably didn't expect that he would report it to Your Majesty in two or two sentences, and suddenly became a little scared, and he hesitated: "Dare to ask who is your Excellency?"
There was no anger (color) between An Changqing's eyebrows and eyes, and she said gently: "My name is An, Changqing, is the Goose King you just talked about."
There was a moment of whispering in the surroundings, and many people had never seen the true face of King Goose. At this time, they wished to paint a portrait on the spot, so that they could show it to others in the future. Only those few Bingzhou Juzi turned pale for a moment, and their lips trembled at a loss as to what to do.
Their words just now can be said to be rebellious, and it is enough for the Goose King to lose their anger.
But before they confessed their mistakes and begged for mercy, they heard An Changqing say again: "The next day will be the examination. Taichang Temple will cherish talents. The special singer would like to vacate part of the Yejing inner and outer shantangs for the students to settle. This matter will be held today. People are going to step up to do it. The test is coming soon, so you should prepare for the exam. Don’t start a dispute over miscellaneous things and miss your studies."
After speaking, he looked at the three dumbfounded men, and said in a warm voice: "The imperial court will verify the matter of the state. If it is true, the imperial court will give you justice. Just prepare for the exam with peace of mind at the moment."
After that, he arched his hands towards everyone in the lobby and left with Shaoqing of Taichang Temple.
After he left, the remarks suppressed by Qiang (qiang) exploded. Many people who saw King Goose Zhenrong for the first time were shocked: "Unexpectedly, King Goose is so graceful... Write out the second generation style of the Goose King!"
Everyone was talking about you and I was talking about it, and there were also poor people who talked about the shelter in the shantang, all with joy (color). The three Bingzhou Juzi looked at each other, and they all saw the happiness in each other's eyes. Unexpectedly, the Goose King didn't even mean to pursue it at all.
They looked at the lively crowds and tentatively explored, only to realize that other states and counties did not levy taxes, and only Binzhou was the only one to levy taxes! I didn't understand their behaviors. After listening to them, they couldn't help but sympathize with a few of them. Instead, they scolded the officials of the state with their enemies.
The words of Bingzhou Juzi quickly reached Xiao Zhige's ears.
Binzhou is adjacent to the west dung, but it is a remote place. General Ning Yuan, the guardian of Bingzhou, was also the son of Lezheng, the national teacher of Dazhu. It was only half a year after Xiao Zhige became enthroned. He hadn't planned to attack them so soon, but he didn't expect the other party to be so arrogant and dare to expropriate under the pretext of building a palace. Taxation, search for people's fat and people's cream. What made him even more intolerable was that they dared to discredit An Changqing so blatantly. Obviously he didn't take him seriously.
"I'll send someone to Bingzhou to conduct a secret investigation. If it is found to be true, I will not be amnesty." Xiao Zhige's face is ashamed: "In addition, Cai Cong will be ordered to encircle the teacher's house. Until the matter is found out, he will not allow it. They pass any news out."
In order to appease people's hearts, An Changqing had to come forward today. There are pros and cons to this move. The drawback is that the current Bingzhou incident is no longer concealed. If Shi Le is getting the news, I am afraid that he is thinking of a way to spread the news to Bingzhou.
At this time, it was to see who moved faster. Xiao Zhige (slaying sha) made a decision, and was angry again, spreading the words one by one, and the teacher's house was heavily surrounded in the afternoon.
Shi Le, who was caught off guard and turned into a turtle in the urn, was upright, but the news didn't go out. He handed out several papers in a row for the next two days, but was stopped back. Upon seeing him, Chu Anliang, who had been close to him, contacted three or two generals, and they all accused Xiao Zhige in tears at the court meeting and chilled the old minister's heart because of a few rumors.
However, if Xiao Zhige could be threatened by crying like this, then he would not be Xiao Zhige. Waiting for them to finish crying, Xiao Zhige didn't care if they couldn't get up, so he left them aside and continued to discuss matters with other courtiers. After that, he left the court as usual, without even asking anyone to help.
Baiguan saw the clue from the expressions of the emperor. The generals who had felt a little bit chill originally wanted to say a few words for Shi Lezheng, but instead they thought of Xiao Zhige's unusual attitude and the rumors outside. Then it died down.
There are also some people in life who are afraid that this time will affect themselves, and go around to inquire about the attitude of Xiahou Shang and Shen Tubo. It's a pity that the two of them didn't even keep their hands. Rong is now at home, and every day he spends a lot of money on his grandchildren, and then goes to the barracks from time to time. The days are extremely comfortable, as if they don't even know the turmoil on the court.
After another ten days, it was the fifth day of March. And an express report came from the state. Xiao Zhige was furious after reading it. He immediately dispatched the loyal and courageous general Qi Wei to follow Shaoqing of Dali Temple to Bingzhou to capture the criminals and Shi Xun, but the heavy guards of the Shifu were not removed. The officials who wanted to speak for Shi Xun before were Judu. No one dared to say anything rashly.
Shi Xun was too rampant this time. After operating in Bingzhou for many years, he was his confidant, and he almost became the emperor of the earth in Bingzhou. Binzhou is remote and barren, not as good as the wealthy businessmen and gentry in the South. He is used to living extravagantly and has the following officials honoring him every year. The officials at the lower level had blood, and naturally, if they wanted to find a way to earn it back, they started to levy taxes in a clever way. However, after the new emperor ascended the throne last year, he was exempted from land tax for three years, and state officials were cut off from making money and offering sacrifices. Master Xun was dissatisfied, so he set up another name and imposed taxes. It's just that he was affected by his father and complained about Xiao Zhi Godo, so he couldn't help but take the opportunity to tell people to spread the news of the construction of the Xing Palace, ruining the reputation of Xiao Zhige and An Changqing.
It's just that he probably never imagined that he would eventually be defeated by a controversy among a few examples.
When Qi Wei led the troops to take the people with Dali Temple Shaoqing, Shi Xun refused to surrender at first, but when Qi Wei took out Shi Lezheng’s seal, he told him that the entire Shifu was under siege and the upper and lower levels were under His Majesty’s control. At that time, he only confessed his life, gave up resistance and was escorted back to Beijing.
Throughout March, the rising sun was surging, and the generals were even more turbulent. The teacher Xun was questioned and involved a series of local officials' embezzlement of Fu (Bai). Xiao Zhige was furious and ordered Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation. Since then, the prelude to the rectification of local military affairs has begun.
Shi Xun and the officials of Binzhou No. 1 (Gangan) were questioned and executed. Dazhu Guo Shile was implicated and dismissed for investigation, and Shifu was confiscated. So far, only four of the six pillar nations remain.
