Only my golden finger has bugs in the world

In the next few months, the imperial capital was calm on the surface, but in fact, the dark tide was surging. The birth of the mysterious Moon Pavilion attracted the attention of countless people, and all kinds of novelty products from the seemingly ordinary merchant Sijia attracted the attention of the people of the imperial capital. The situation has become more complicated, and people's hearts are fluctuating.

Imperial Capital Shijia.

study.

A middle-aged man in his forties in a dark blue brocade robe sat at the desk in the study, "What do you think of the Si family?"

Since ancient times, wealth has touched people's hearts. Although the Shi family has followed the path of clear streams, they have accumulated a lot of wealth for several generations, but who would think that there is too much money, not to mention that if you want to achieve a great cause, how can you lack the support of money.

The staff of the Shi family in the study, after thinking about it, respectfully said to the middle-aged man who was sitting: "I'm afraid the Si family can't move for the time being,? The son of Prince An was a pawn before the temptation? I didn't expect to lead to the moon pavilion." power."

The staff went on to say: "This Yuege was born out of nowhere. Our Shi family's intelligence agency is already very complete, but we can't find any news about Yuege, but a mere Si family can contact Yuege. I'm afraid it's Yuege. The cabinet secretly intends to support the Si family."

Another staff member nodded in agreement, "Patriarch, I believe that Yuege must not be underestimated. The strength of the black guards of Yuege is higher than that of Jinwuwei under the king's command. If such a force can help us The use..." The remaining half of the sentence was unspoken, even if they didn't say it, everyone present knew it well.

Shi Quan pondered for a while, as if he had made up his mind, and said: "Since you can hire people from Yuege with money, you can arrange to have secret contacts with people from the Si family. It cannot belong to us, but we can also use the Moon Pavilion to do things for us."

"The head of the family is wise, but our people haven't found out the contact information of Yuege. Since the Si family is a chess piece that Yuege puts on the bright side, we can only start with the Si family and contact Yuege."

The original money-making weapon, the Si family, was a piece of fat in the eyes of many aristocratic families in the imperial capital. Everyone wanted to take a bite, but now there is a mysterious and powerful Moon Pavilion as the backing of the Si family. Have to be afraid.

"Remember, don't offend the Si family in the future, treat the Si family mainly as the guests of the Shi family, and wait for the conclusion of the matter."

If there was no Moon Pavilion standing behind the Si family, it would be a different matter, after all, he was reluctant to give up this piece of fat.

All the big families had a unified idea on this matter, and they all took the Si family as their guests, and their attitudes were frighteningly enthusiastic.

Si Nanjin accepted it with peace of mind, if it wasn't for the Moon Pavilion behind him, the Si family would have been eaten by skinning and dismantling the bones long ago, how could they still be where they are today.

Facing people's inquiries about hiring Yuege's soldiers, he added three more layers to the price given by the king. Facing the astonishing and outrageous price, these aristocratic families agreed after hesitation.

Si Nanjin stared at the deposit sent by the aristocratic families for a while, and then happily put away dozens of large-value bank notes.

While making money and fooling those aristocratic families, you can easily place chess pieces beside them, how wonderful!

. . . . . .

The imperial capital has been quiet for a few months. Following the emperor's decree to carry out the examination and selection of officials, the entire government and the public have caused great disturbances.

Previously, the criteria for selecting officials were family background, morality, and talent. However, as time passed, the standard of talent and virtue was gradually ignored. Controlling the power of selecting officials, it has even become a situation of "the upper class has no poor family, and the lower class has no powerful family".

In the small teahouse with an unremarkable appearance, the boxes inside are exquisitely decorated and full of the smell of books. A few elderly officials in official robes are sitting in the boxes, silent, with gloomy faces.

"Your Majesty's move is clearly intended to weaken the strength of our family." Liu Taipu, who was the first to lose his composure, spoke out first.

Although the disadvantages of the current system of selecting officials are becoming increasingly apparent, it has long been a tool to maintain and consolidate the power of the family, so even though they know that it is deeply ill, they have no intention of changing it.

"Hmph!" The oldest Shen Taiwei snorted coldly, with a dark face, "Our king has long regarded the aristocratic families as thorns in the flesh, and now the method of selecting officials is changed to the imperial examination system to support the poor. My son, not only can win the hearts of the people, but also cultivate cronies openly and aboveboard, suppressing the family, it is a good idea."

"The imperial examination system must not be allowed to be implemented." One of the officials came to such a conclusion, resoundingly.

The aristocratic families are deeply entrenched. To put it bluntly, each aristocratic family is actually a vassal of one side.Although the powerful family forces endangered the imperial power, it was precisely because of this that the king did not dare to find someone to dispose of them at will.

Although there are many people from aristocratic families who have outstanding talents, most of them are those who are greedy for wealth and mediocrity. With the privilege of controlling the government, one day the family will weaken.

"The imperial examination system is not so easy to implement. Books are expensive and hard to come by. Even if children from poor families want to take the imperial examination, I am afraid that they have more than enough energy to do so." One of the officials said triumphantly.

As soon as he said this, he heard an extremely loud and honest old man's voice, "Idiot." Yu Xiang, who sat at the top, had the highest status and the calmest face, "Books were expensive before because of printing difficulties, and Wang The superiors and subordinates have already developed a method to print a large number of books, coupled with the establishment of government schools, although the imperial examination system is difficult at the beginning, it may not be impossible to implement it.”

The complacent official's arrogance dissipated, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Then what should we do next?" The aristocratic family is not monolithic, but in the face of things that endanger the interests of all the aristocratic families, they are united as one.

"Today's emperor's enthronement is not right, and his name is not right, and there are more crimes such as cruelty to his brothers, such as blasphemy. The former prince left a son who lived among the people, and he should be the orthodox heir." Yu Xiang finally spit out this sentence, which made the original worry The few people in the group are somewhat enlightened.

The rest of the people looked at each other, since the emperor couldn't control them, they had to change to an obedient emperor.

The former prince was the eldest prince of the late emperor, and was also born of the late emperor Yuan. He had a noble status and was established as the prince. Unfortunately, he fell off his horse and died in an accident. The prince Liangdi had a son who disappeared in the palace change half a year ago. Life and death Unknown, according to Yu Xiang, this missing little grandson of Jingui is still alive.

. . . . . .

On Linyun Peak.

In the past, Linyun Peak, where the environment was harsh and the forest was lush, has changed a lot in the past half a year.

What used to be a simple wooden house has been changed into a solid and neat mud-tiled house. The barren land at the foot of the mountain, which was full of weeds, has been transformed into a farmland, which is neatly arranged and divided into two parts. .

Linyun Peak, which has been completely remodeled, is covered with organ formations on the outside, and the moon pavilion composed of thousands of Jinwu guards is guarding the inside. Linyun Peak, which was originally inconspicuous and inaccessible, can only be accessed by your own family, which completely isolates outsiders from entering. Become the safest place in the world.

Duan Si was working in the farmland opened up at the foot of the mountain. His handsome face was flushed red with hot sweat dripping down. Even if he was wearing a straw hat, he couldn't stop the sun from invading. But full of light.

He was holding a small booklet in his hand. Although the booklet looked ordinary, it was regarded as a treasure by him, and he moved very carefully.

This manual was handed over to them by Mr. Mu. They are all farmers who have been farming for generations and have the most experience in planting. Although many ideas in this manual are novel and I don’t know where they came from, they are found to be very useful after experimenting. , The yield of crops such as hybrid wheat and corn has increased a lot, and it has also made them more and more motivated.

There are also some rare seeds brought by sea merchants from overseas. Some of them have high yield and good taste after cultivation. Among them is a thing called potato, which is very easy to survive. It has broad leaves, lumps, and is hidden in the soil. The yield per mu even reached [-] jin. At first they didn’t know how to eat it. They cooked potato leaves, which were extremely unpalatable. Later, they found a way to eat them in the manual.

Whether it is boiled or fried, it tastes good. Potatoes are really a good thing. They are not only delicious but also full.

He is not the only one who is busy in the farmland. Everyone from the elderly to the young children are busy in the farmland. Different from the numbness of the previous work, they all have smiles on their faces and their hearts are full of expectations for the future.

At this time, a group of soldiers in black armor came across the farmland. They were solemn, tall and strong, and uniform.

An old man who was busy in the farmland raised his head, wiped the sweat off his face, and greeted with a smile: "Commander Wei, you are here."

Earlier they were terrified of the arrival of the Jinwu Guards, and thought they were here to arrest them. Later, they realized that these were elite soldiers trained by Mr. Mu. Lin Yunfeng had the intention of protecting them. After a long time, they also treated the Jinwu Guards Existence has become uncommon, and even among these refugees, some half-grown young men with good martial arts qualifications have joined the Jinwu Guard Reserve Army and trained with them.

Wei Yu, who stood at the front of the Jinwu Guard, politely responded to the old man's greeting, "Hello, Mr. Qi, your body is still as strong as ever."

Although Mr. Qi was old, his farm work was done quickly and neatly. He laughed contentedly, "It's boring to sit at home, so why not come to the farm and put in some effort. Commander Wei, the potatoes are coming down." , except for the part kept for oneself, the rest are cultivated seeds.”

Wei Yu nodded.

On the ridges of the farmland, there are hundreds of sacks of potatoes neatly placed, which is already a lot. If the seeds are made large, at least thousands of acres of land can be planted.

Wei Yu and the Jinwu guards each carried hundreds of catties of potatoes, walking like flying.

Duan Si looked at the leaving figures of the Jinwu guards, and envy flashed in his eyes. He was not in good health. Although he had recuperated a lot during this period of time, he was still unable to do strenuous exercises like martial arts. Infinite strength can only be thought about.

Still study hard in the school!

The author has something to say: Regarding the update issue: because the school has started and the focus is on academics, so it is fixed every other day, at 21:00 the next night, I feel that no one reads the morning update, and they may like to read novels at night. (Don't ask why it is 21:00, because the author wants to learn metaphysics.)

Ahhhhhhh, after finishing this book, I want to write a purely non-CP novel, conceive it first, and write it later.
