This script is going to be cool [Rebirth]

Everything is developing as I expected, but in a bad direction, and I can't stop it.

In the 24th year of Yongxing, the Turkic tribes and I faced the three passes in the north, the second pass in the northwest, and the three passes in the northeast, and launched large-scale provocations and conflicts on three sides.I appointed Wei Yunlang as Hussar General, stationed in the northeast.

Less than three days after the edict was issued, bad news suddenly spread from the northwest—Jingzhe Pass was broken, General Liu died in battle, and the Northwest Army wasted nearly half of it, and had already retreated to Neiguan.I was shocked when I heard it, and asked why it happened so suddenly.The Minister of the Ministry of War sighed bitterly, General Liu was provoked by the enemy, and he went out of the city alone to meet the enemy's chief, and the two sides exchanged weapons. After seven or eight rounds of fighting, General Liu lost to the enemy's leader and was beheaded by his horse.As a result, the Northwest Army's morale was slackened, and its deputy general commanded hastily, so it was defeated in three days and had no power to parry.

The defeat of the Northwest Army became an opening for the Turks to open the door to our country.In half a year, the Turks seized four cities in our dynasty, slaughtered two cities, and burned their corpses for hundreds of miles.The frontier was attacked by enemies, but the court could no longer pick out generals who could take orders in the face of danger.Amid the gloom and gloom, the Minister of the Ministry of War recommended a person to me——his only daughter.

The ministers of the DPRK and China immediately raised their objections.It is unheard of for a woman to be a general.Not to mention whether she is competent, let's say she is unconvincing.I didn't say much, and went to the imperial study room to meet Miss An Yige, the only daughter of the Minister of War.When I first saw her, I thought she was a heroic little girl.However, after chatting for less than half an hour, I decided to make her a general, give her a tiger talisman, and set off for the northwest today.

The imperial court exploded, and the officials blocked my imperial study and asked me to withdraw my life.I stood in front of the door, looked at the ministers who were kneeling on the ground, and asked in a low voice: "Everyone, do you know of Ling Fengying, Deputy General An? A few years ago, she went out with the Minister of the Ministry of War to suppress Jing Zhonghou and others who defected. In the past, she killed the head of the enemy with one enemy and one hundred. At that time, General Changde, who was born as a champion of martial arts, was knocked to the ground in less than three rounds and was captured without a fight. Why didn't you blame her for being a woman at that time?"

Everyone was shocked: "That Vice General An is actually the only daughter of the Minister of War?!"

I nodded slightly: "Do you have any objections?"

"But this time it's different than before." A somewhat unfamiliar minister stepped forward and said, "It's nothing more than a small fight. This time, it's a fierce battle that endangers the entire country. She's a girl, with some brute force, But it is not easy to kill the enemy before the battle. But, in terms of resourcefulness..."

I sneered: "Then you're looking for someone who is both wise and brave?"

The minister fell silent.The rest of you look at me, I look at you, with doubts written all over their faces, but no one dares to speak out.

I was indifferent, and said slowly: "Pass down this king's decree. From now on, all insightful people who are willing to be loyal to the country can be officials regardless of their background, household registration, or gender. Each state will allocate ten places. , can be self-recommended or recommended by the prefect. The ministers and prime ministers of various ministries, plus the academician of the Hanlin Academy are the examiners of the first examination. The king and the king of the palace are the examiners of the palace examination. Those who pass the double examination in one fell swoop can be promoted exceptionally. If it is recommended by the prefect, then The prefect of the place will be rewarded; if anyone is found to be indiscriminate, he will be punished. This "Decree for Accepting Talents" will take effect since its promulgation, and anyone who disagrees will be punished as a crime of treason."

My last sentence was meant to intimidate them.Sure enough, the senior ministers who were ready to make a move just now covered their mouths immediately.I stayed with Zhong Bochen and other ministers, and briefly explained my thoughts.Then I called my fourth brother over and asked him to help me with some exam questions.

When the fourth brother came, there was a "tail" behind him, and he smiled at me awkwardly with his hands in his hands.I was slightly startled, and hurriedly pointed to the chair for him to sit down: "Third brother, why are you here?"

"Fifth brother. I heard from the fourth brother that you want to recruit talented people? See if the third brother can do it... You know, I can make money." On the third brother's chubby face, a pair of The thin eyes are hidden in the flesh and it is almost impossible to tell, but the tone is very expectant, even with a hint of flattery.

I couldn't help laughing out loud, and quickly poured him a cup of tea: "You know how to make money, and you put yourself in jail."

The third brother immediately pouted pitifully: "I am going to change my past! The third brother promises that he will not make any more black-hearted money, and will do business honestly. Do you think it will work?"

I was a little hesitant, tilting my head and looking up and down the third brother.The third brother was fidgeting when I saw him, he opened his arms, stood up and turned around clumsily, like a roast duck hanging in the oven, and let me take a closer look.I was amused by him again, and after thinking for a moment, I agreed to his proposal.

"It just so happens that Sheng Xuanguo has a deal with us, so I can trouble my third brother to come over." I showed him the booklet from the transfer department: "It's a batch of grain. Third brother, you should find a way to bargain the price. Don't kill too hard ,At once..."

"It looks decent, but it actually makes them suffer. Isn't it?" The third brother regained his energy in an instant, twisted his fingers and counted, and said with a sound of money: "Don't worry, I promise to do it quietly. .”

I immediately stood up, shook hands and patted his shoulders, and said, "This is my good third brother!"

So the third brother was all red, and jumped out of the Jiaming Palace, like a lump of happily rolling pork belly.The fourth brother couldn't help laughing and said: "The third brother has calmed down a lot since you punished him once. He walks the birds and enjoys the flowers on weekdays, and asks me to go to the teahouse to listen to the opera when he has nothing to do. It seems that he really can't be idle. Otherwise, why did he suddenly do this?" childish."

I was deeply moved, and raised my hand to take a sip of tea: "Father, among the six sons, the eldest lost his temper, the sixth left home, and the second brother... Let's do it and cherish it."

The fourth brother nodded slightly, took out something from his wide sleeve and handed it to me: "Fifth brother, this is a list of sages recommended by me. I used to support some poor scholars, and now they are alone, and they are all full of fists. Eager to be useful. My elder brother established himself in the Southern Court and took away half of the courtiers. Now many officials in our Northern Court are actually in the top positions. But it will not be easy to directly select them out in a while, so..."

"The third brother has a heart. Regarding the plight of the court, I have a proposal. It's just a little "shocking." I looked at the fourth brother with my cheeks on my hands: "I want to create a new one. It is said to be one, but it is actually one" Little court".

The fourth brother turned sideways and immediately put the teacup on the coffee table beside him: "It's quite shocking. Let me put the teacup firmly before you talk."

The fourth brother is really frugal, and he can tell at a glance that the blue porcelain teacup in his hand is one of the few good porcelain in my palace, and if one is broken, it will not be complete.I waited for the fourth elder brother to get up and close the door, and sat upright, and then continued: "There are three departments in this department, which supervise the army, finance, and officials. The ministers in the department have no rank or title, but they are only assigned by me. The rest of the court Minister, no one can control them. What do you think?"

The fourth brother nodded his forehead with his fingers, and thoughtfully said: "You want to raise some "retainers", and find another way without shaking the foundation of the imperial court. Although the method is good, there are many obstacles. First, stay behind Most of the important ministers of the imperial court are veterans of the two dynasties. When the new ministry is opened, it is tantamount to slapping them in the face, which is easy to chill people's hearts; moreover, how should the powers of the new ministry be formulated? Will it conflict with the "old dynasty"? There will be a conflict And who should I listen to?"

"The authority of the new ministry will not conflict with the old dynasty." I explained: "The new ministry does not exercise any authority on weekdays. When I dispatch tasks, the new ministry temporarily obtains absolute power of disposal. These tasks, all It is beyond the power of the old dynasty to deal with it. If someone is dissatisfied...well...I have a small notebook to record their scandals..."

The black ledger that Zhong Bochen gave me is still under my pillow.From time to time, I took it out and looked through it. The soul of the screenwriter was burning, and I found a lot of inspiration.

The fourth brother is still full of worries: "However, how will you find so many people to support a new department in a short time? Besides, the things that the new department takes over are all important matters. If the secret is leaked, then..."

"I can't think of a solution to this kind of worry." I put my hands in my hands and started to kick the ball on Zhong who was also shot while lying down: "But someone can help me solve it."

The fourth brother finally felt relieved, picked up his teacup again, took a sip, and muttered in a low voice: "Be careful to keep a little distance. There are a lot of rumors in the court, and the spread is not very pleasant..."

"No, it's not rumors, it's the truth." I followed my fourth brother's example and took a sip of tea gracefully, instead of stretching my long mouth to suck it like before.

The fourth brother's hands trembled, and he quietly cast a small look with a question mark at me.I raised my eyebrows and gave him an exclamation point back.The fourth brother immediately lowered his head and said after a long silence: "The tea is good..."

Zhong Bochen took over the hot potato from the Lixin Department, and he called me first to ask for some "benefits", and spent the night with me on the couch.My waist has been squeezed clean by him. In the morning, I can only sit sideways, pretending to be domineering, but actually gently rubbing my waist.The prime minister was not ambiguous, he did things as soon as he was asleep, and within three days he submitted the draft of the new ministry, and even chose the name, so it was called Jiugao Mansion, which means Jiugao's nourishment.

I took out the "list of 17 people" left to me by my father, and ordered Zhong Bochen to secretly compile these 17 people into the Jiugao Mansion first, and then let them develop and go offline on their own.After half a month of busy work, the Jiugao Mansion took shape and began to operate officially.Except for those 17 people in the mansion, they are all new faces.I didn't ask any questions, and let them go to their own positions and perform their duties.

Another three months passed.Good news came from the Northwest Front.General An Yige'an led his troops back to a city, barely closing the "gap" created by the Turks.The courtiers began to act according to the wind and praised her as a "heroine", and no one raised any objections to my order of accepting talents.It's just that Jiugao's mansion seemed a bit abrupt after all. Every morning, everyone in Jiugao's mansion stood in a small group and poked in front of the main hall.Some old ministers used notes to persuade me not to break the rules of my ancestors and make the court messy.I didn't even care about it, and threw it into the charcoal basin for burning, but there was a lot of charcoal money left.

The third brother's business was also negotiated well, and he made Sheng Xuanguo dizzy, and finally couldn't react, and said he would come back tomorrow.I confidently gave him more business to do, and asked the ministers of the household department to help him more, after all, silver is a good thing.

The situation seems to have improved a lot, and it won't be pierced by Turks as kebabs like in the previous life.However, to put it bluntly, we are still suspected of slapping our faces to pretend to be fat.Under the tactic of attacking on three sides, the Turks were so scattered that they could still break through one side.It can be seen that our national strength is no longer enough to confront Ashina.Under the current situation, if you don't get some foreign aid, you may be doomed.

The number one foreign aid is naturally my arrogant elder brother.However, my eldest brother has not even had a letter for so many years. He no longer wants the throne, his younger brother, or his son.The second foreign aid is Qi Guo.My sixth younger brother is doing well in Qi State, and his daily job is to play with his wife and make his father-in-law happy, and he gains three catties during the festive season.Lord Qi really doted on my sixth younger brother, he put gold and silver mountains into his hands, and my sixth younger brother sent relief money to his fifth elder brother when he had nothing to do.

It's just that I gave all his money to my queen.Carrying the sixth brother's family letter and piles of money, the queen mother finally accepted the fact that her darling left her to live a better life, regained her energy, and set up a stage in the palace to listen to plays every now and then. .I don't ask her too much, I just hope that she can continue to remain aloof from the world, eat well, drink well and take care of her health, and don't jump out to cause trouble for me again.

However, Qi Guo's willingness to make friends with us is still based on interests.It is impossible for Qi Guo to spare no effort to help us beat the Turks away, and he also has to worry about the restless little brother beside him——Sheng Xuanguo.The battle for the royal family of Shengxuan Kingdom officially came to an end last year.Li Qing, who was already out of favor, stood at the end, managed to kill the King of Shengxuan, and sat on the throne.

It was rumored that Li Qing had a good fate and missed it.Of the seventeen princes of the royal family of Shengxuan Kingdom, only three of them died in the battle.One is Li Qing;The first thing Li Qing did when he ascended the throne was to get caught between the two families of Wuchao and Qiguo to make troubles. He was very annoying like a fly.But we have to do business with him again, so we can only take one step at a time and don't dare to make too much trouble.

So I started looking for a new partner, and it happened that Uncle Wei reminded me.In order to consolidate his position as the "King of the Prairie", Ashina persecuted other Turkic tribes, making them express their willingness to join us.In the early years we dared not accept them. After all, they were not from our tribe, so their hearts must be different.However, now we can’t pick so many. Youdao is an enemy’s enemy is a friend. Besides, we have no enmity with the Turkic nation itself, but the bloody enmity with Ashina’s tribe.One size fits all and cannot be confused.

However, in order to prevent further criticism from the DPRK and China, I decided to keep this matter a secret and sneak out to discuss cooperation.Prime Minister Zhong Da, who wanted to raise me as a "canary", was reluctant, and he reluctantly nodded until I agreed to let him accompany him, and set up the "three no rules" for me: no running around, no random Say, don't think about it.

In order to deceive others, I clearly declared that my old illness had relapsed, I recuperated behind closed doors, and left the court affairs to the Jiugao Mansion, leaving Xu Changzhi in the palace to help.Secretly, they set off with Zhong Bochen in the dark, and after traveling for several days, they finally arrived at the northern border.

Uncle Wei saw me quietly, and first came up and gave me a firm bear hug.After all the calculations, I hadn't seen him for several years, and it was so easy to meet again, but I was only grinning silly.Uncle Wei patted me on the back like watching a horse: "That's right, the waist is slipping!" Then he led me into the tent.I talked with Uncle Wei at night, from daily chatter to state affairs, and I really enjoyed it.

I thought it was just an ordinary trip this time.However, in fact, this trip to the customs completely rewrote my script of whether to stay cool or not.
