A Tale of Two Phoenixes

针 The pinholes are so small that they can't be seen at all when indoors. Only in the sun, when they are illuminated by light, can they appear in front of Chu Yu's eyes.

针 And the pinholes became a word.

Bian Chuyu's eyelids jumped aside, and she remembered that the flower was wrong, and she quickly pretended to put the paper in his sleeve as if nothing had happened, and returned to the carriage with Hua wrong.

Ebara's plan was to enter the palace after seeing Wang Yizhi. Chu Yu did not plan to change. When she entered the palace, she stood still again, took out the note, and confirmed it to the light again.

Wu Chuyu frowned, and slowly folded the paper for a long time, and closed it with a little confusion.

What did Wang Yizhi want to say to her?

Why did you hide that word in the book in such a covert way?

Shaking his head, Chu Yu temporarily put down his doubts, first raised his spirit to meet Liu Ziye. After the two exchanged their sibling feelings, Liu Ziye raised the shortage of staff and planned to promote all officials to two ranks to make up for the killing of several assistant ministers. The resulting power gap.

Qi Chuyu didn't know much about the personnel changes of the regime, but after hearing Liu Ziye's lack of manpower, she suddenly had an idea, saying, "Your Majesty, how can I recommend a person to you?"

The person Chu Yu planned to recommend was naturally Yuan Yuan. Now she has at least half of the family members of Jiankang City and she has almost lost the only confidence in Liu Ziye. Now she recommends Yuan Yuan, but it is completely Self-confidence: Let Yuan Yuan take control of some military powers. If something goes wrong in the future, her security will be one more point.

Liu Ziye killed several ministers in succession. Naturally, there were a lot of vacated positions. Now that Chu Yu was actually interested, she let her choose randomly. Chu Yu compared each post and chose a position of "Danyang Yin" for Yuan Yuan. .

This post is plain. In fact, it is the local governor of Beijing. It is mainly in charge of military power, governing civil affairs, recommending appointments and punishing administrative lawsuits, and participating in the administration of the DPRK. This official level may not be very high, but it is very important. Is the official of the nearest emperor.

What Chu Chuyu sees is the three words of near emperor and mastering the monarchy of Beijing.

Although Yu Zichu is now struggling in the celebrity circle because of a woman, Yu Ziyuan's literary talent is still far and near, and coupled with Chu Yu's previous power, giving him such an official position is justified.

After discussing the matter with Liu Ziye, Chu Yu felt relaxed for a while, and mentioned the possibility of the imperial examination system to Liu Ziye by the way. At this time, the candidate election was based on the referral system, which easily tended to the vicious circle of credibility. Officials Roughly selected from high-ranking elites in various places, and promoted more people with low backgrounds but real talents, but could not enter the center of power. This is why Chu Yu had to deal with those people before.

现在 But if we look at it from another angle, even if we are wicked with those powerful people, can we not confuse it?

Liu Yuye's rude and outrageous style shocked Chu Yu, but when she was shocked, Chu Yu also saw the dawn of another angle, that is, the breaking of the monopoly position of the gatekeeper—the imperial examination.

Perhaps in the 21st century, more than a thousand years later, the imperial examination system was a backward selection system, but it is only a few centuries AD. In other words, the imperial examination system was actually very advanced at this time.

Chu Yu didn't think about this. After all, her impression of the imperial examinations was not very good, but after changing her perspective, she realized how far she had gone: instead of courting the clergymen, it was better to directly Help the emperor strengthen centralization and control the power of talent selection in his own hands.

As Chu Chuyu thought more and more, her heartbeat accelerated. As long as she could restrain the impertinence of the little emperor a little, this might be feasible. Anyway, she had already figured out a way out, so she would have the courage to try it out.

After listening to Chu Yu ’s description, Liu Ziye also felt very fresh. It was fun for him and it could hit the door aristocracy. It really fit his mind. The only thing to consider is that after the introduction of this system, the door valve The noble side may have a strong backlash.

After all, this will harm their interests.

Although Liu Ziye is irritable, he has been growing a bit these days. He can see the prospects and difficulties of this system, and he is not busy making calculations in one day. Chu Yu himself does not know the specific procedures of the imperial examinations. It is generally understood that the readers are selected through examinations in various places as officials, but how to take the test requires careful consideration.

Chu Yu felt very relaxed when she walked out of the palace, because today she did not mention the killing of the three kings with Liu Ziye. The sum written by Wang Yizhi showed her the narrowness and weakness in the past. She was not the kind of cruel and decisive man. Also, she is not a wise man who is good at drilling camps. Although she has a vision beyond the millennium, she may not have the wisdom to surpass the millennium.

I see the shortcomings, which is a good thing.

Don't do things that make you feel sad. She wants to live, to live comfortably, and to live in a stable and stable way. If you have to put guilt on your conscience, you can live in such pain. What is it like?

Returning to the Princess House to change into men's clothing, Chu Yu hesitated, and let the flower stay in the house by mistake. Instead, she let Aman and Yue Jiefei accompany him. After a while of cultivation, Yue Jiefei's injury was also good. It's almost there, although it can't be said to be completely cured, but at least there is no problem in fighting.

The horse-drawn carriage stopped in front of Jianchu Temple. Chu Yu took a deep breath and calmed the anxiety in her heart before she stepped off the carriage.

On the paper left by Wang Yizhi, the pinholes were connected to form a word: Ran.

What's wrong, Chu Yu thought of the good silence with Wang Yi, and then came to this temple.

Why did Wang Yizhi pass the message to her in such a tortuous way? Who doesn't he want to see? Chu Yu is not sure, but those who spend time with her every day are wrong. Although Chu Yu is unwilling to doubt the wrong, she still adheres to the idea of ​​not being afraid of 10,000, and for the time being isolates herself from herself. .

Then came to silence.

Perhaps from the silence, she could know what Wang Yizhi wanted to tell her.

However, when Chu Yu got out of the car, he saw a group of people standing in front of the gate of Jianchu Temple, and pointing at the temple, it seemed that they were discussing something.

There was an ominous premonition in Chu Yu's heart. She rushed to the past and asked one of them to inquire. But she learned that an assassin had just come to Jianchu Temple and killed a few monks. The assassin broke into the silent master who had never complained. After a moment, there were no people in the room, leaving only a pool of blood.

The assassin was said to be covered in black cloth and black.

Uh ...

At this time, in Muxue Garden, a man in black stood in front of Rong Zhi, and his figure was plated with blood in the evening.
