"How can I do it so that the common people will submit?" When this sentence was asked, not only Wang Siyou and other five people dared not speak, even the ministers of civil and military affairs in the court did not dare to speak out.There is no standard answer to this question, but it is difficult to answer. If you are not careful, you will lose your head.

After waiting for a long time, no one answered. Emperor Yong Jing frowned and said angrily, "Why, can't you answer such a simple question?"

At this time Li Xun stood up, "Back to the emperor, the grass people are from a poor family. When they were young, the grass people's father told the grass people to practice martial arts well and serve the country in the future. So the grass people only know the art of war, but they don't know how to govern the country. But the grass people are in the countryside. Growing up in a poor family, I understand that the people don’t really want much. First, I hope that the weather will be good and the weather will be good. Second, I hope that my parents and officials will be clean and the tax burden will not increase. If the people are rich, they will lament the emperor’s sageness, and there will be no submission. Woolen cloth?"

Emperor Yong Jing listened to Li Xun's plain words, nodded in his heart, and looked at Zheng Ji in a blink of an eye, "What about you, what do you think?"

Zheng Ji was in a bit of a dilemma. He had never had to worry about eating and clothing since he was a child, and he didn't know what the people thought, "Well, your majesty, Caomin is no better than Brother Li. Caomin is ashamed that he can't get in touch with the lives of the people. But since Caomin is sensible, every fifteenth day, They will send people to help the poor outside the city. The grassroots feel that those in high positions and wealthy families can support others more and not forget the reason for the collapse of the previous dynasty. This is the root cause.” The collapse of the previous dynasty was not just the emperor Faintness, as well as the fact that ministers form cliques for personal gain, regardless of the life and death of the people, are the fundamental reasons for the fall of the previous dynasty.

Emperor Yongjing said, "That's right, what you said reminded me of a sentence in Wang Siyou's article, which really touched my heart, "If you live in a high temple, you worry about its people; if you live far away, you worry about its ruler." "If you do this, why worry about the lack of wealth in the Yong Kingdom, and why worry about other countries committing crimes?"

"Cao Min Guan Nuo has something to say." After thinking about it, Guan Nuo also stood up, ready to flatter him.

Emperor Yongjing smiled and said, "Okay, let me take a look at how Prime Minister Guan teaches you and your descendants."

Guan Nuo cleared his voice and said, "The Caomin thought that the current Yong Kingdom is prosperous and prosperous, but the people have experienced the worst political situation in the previous dynasty. The Caomin usually travel occasionally, and the people are full of admiration for the emperor. There is no need to change it, a stark contrast, the common people have already realized the goodness of the Yong Kingdom." Guan Nuo was self-satisfied and felt that his answer was very good.

Wang Siyou and others despised him in their hearts, what kind of bad answer is this, flattering.However, Emperor Yongjing felt that it was a good thing that he did not promise Ji Ning to him. This person thought too much of himself and had a strong sense of class.

"Caomin disagree." Jiang Wei retorted loudly. "The grassroots feel that nothing remains the same. Once upon a time, the previous dynasty was also glorious. The kings of the previous dynasty followed the rule of the ancestors, but everyone can see what happened later!" Jiang Weiwei, a young cynic With the appearance of a man, he refuted Guan Nuo impassionedly, without fear of Guan Nuo's glaring at this moment.

It was the first time for Guan Nuo to be reprimanded by a lowly poor family, and he said angrily, "You are a humble Confucian, how can you compare like this, how can the previous dynasty be compared with the current Yong Kingdom, what is your intention when you say that?"

Jiang Wei blushed at Guan Nuo's words, what happened to Han Ru?They are all the people of Yong Kingdom, aren't they? "Guan Nuo, I'm from a poor family, so what? You are a noble family, so can you look down on common people? Isn't that the source of the common people's resentment in the test paper!"

Guan Nuo wanted to curse, but he heard Emperor Yongjing say, "Okay, what does it look like to make a big noise in the court!" Everyone present knelt on the ground and shouted, "The emperor calms down, the emperor calms down! !" As everyone knows, Emperor Yong Jing is the happiest person now, because Jiang Wei's words slapped the family directly across the face.The aristocratic family is deeply intertwined and cannot act rashly, but this will weaken Emperor Yongjing's rights. The restriction of an emperor's rights is the most unbearable thing for Emperor Yongjing. He wants to marry Ji Ning to Wang Siyou because he is not from the aristocratic family.

"Wang Siyou, the other four have finished speaking, let me hear your thoughts." Emperor Yong Jing looked at Wang Siyou, expecting it in his heart.

Wang Siyou straightened up, looked at Emperor Yongjing, and said calmly, "The grassroots have only one sentence, but the ministers present will never agree to this sentence."

Prime Minister Guan stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers will not deprive the court of political opinions that are beneficial to the court for their own benefit."

Emperor Yongjing smiled and said to Wang Siyou, "It's okay, Prime Minister Guan has already said so, so just speak up!"

Wang Siyou got the decree and uttered a rebellious speech, "The people are the most important, the society is second, and the king is the least!"

"Bold, you are talking nonsense. Since ancient times, kings and overlords, how can there be a reason why the king is light and the people are more important than the king?" A censor angrily scolded Wang Siyou, thinking that Wang Siyou was just lying to deceive the crowd.

"My lord, dare to ask, if you are the only one in this court, can this still be called a court? In other words, if there are no people in this world, will there still be a country? Since there is no country, where is it?" What about the king who came here?" Wang Siyou felt that these people had too strong ideas about agriculture and industry, and they were very pedantic.

Emperor Yongjing didn't speak all the time, he was still digesting Wang Siyou's words, he thought it made sense, isn't there a lack of such talents in the current court?Maybe, Wang Siyou can help me suppress the family, and after a hundred years, I can leave the prince with a beautiful land.

"I declare that Zheng Ji will be ranked second in the martial arts examination, and Li Xun will be Tanhua; Guan Nuo will be ranked second in the literary examination, and Jiang Wei will be Tanhua; and Wang Siyou will be the number one scholar in civil and military affairs! Before noon today, post the list and announce it to the world; Take the No. [-] scholar, take the second place, pick the flower, and parade through the streets to show your grace!" Emperor Yong Jing announced the ranking of the civil and military awards with lightning speed, leaving all the ministers speechless to refute and could only acquiesce in the facts.But Guan Nuo refused to accept it, but he had no choice but to glance at Prime Minister Guan with his head down.

"Retire!" The eunuch's sharp voice sounded, and after three shouts of long live, everyone withdrew from the court.

"Congratulations, congratulations." "Congratulations to the champion." Congratulations came one after another, and Wang Siyou cupped his hands in return, "Congratulations, congratulations."

After some congratulations, Zheng Ji and others came to Wang Siyou's side, "Brother Wang, this civil and military champion is rare in a hundred years. You are really talented! You said that the people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least." It really makes me sweat for you!"

"Hehe, I'm also nervous!" Wang Siyou said with a smile.

"Brother Wang, do you still remember me?" Jiang Wei admired Wang Siyou's outspokenness, and said what he dared to think or dare not say.

Wang Siyou took a deep look at Jiang Wei, and said suddenly, "So it's you, haha, I didn't expect to see you again one day, it's really destined!"

"I thank Brother Wang for his generosity that day, so I am here today. I am so grateful." After Jiang Wei finished speaking, he bowed to Wang Siyou to express his gratitude.

Zheng Ji wondered, "What does this mean?"

"Hehe, Brother Jiang and I are old acquaintances. Everyone, how about going to Piaoxianglou for a small gathering with me as host today?" Wang Siyou is in a good mood today, and he gets along with these people again, and wants to socialize more.

"Then let Brother Wang spend the money." Li Xun said bluntly.

Wang Siyou waved his hands again and again, "My brother, why talk about spending money?"

These few people gathered together in Piaoxianglou to connect with each other.

"Princess, princess." Xu'er hurried in, panting heavily, "It's done, Mr. Wang is the number one scholar in civil and military affairs."

Qin Ning smiled slightly, took a sip of tea, and looked at the plum-colored glass on the table, which was given to her by Wang Siyou, and she kept using it all the time. "Then Siyou is back home now? Or did you go to meet Zheng Ji and others?"

Xu'er looked at Jing Ning in surprise, and said in surprise, "Princess, you, how do you know? How do you know that Prince Wang and Mr. Zheng went to Piaoxianglou for a small gathering?"

Princess Guining didn't answer, she got up and walked towards Pinhua Hall. "Xu'er, put away the glass on the table." It's time to pay the Queen Mother a rest, and let her know the news by the way.

"Grandpa, is this the end of the matter?" Guan Nuo anxiously walked back and forth in the room.

Prime Minister Guan looked at his eldest grandson, feeling a little disappointed, but still couldn't bear to reprimand him, and said to him kindly, "This is the end of the matter, you are already the second best, and the emperor's order cannot be violated."

"However, if the people of the family don't become the number one scholar, but let a poor scholar be the number one scholar, isn't this a slap in the face of the family? Also, this Wang Siyou has become the number one scholar and married Princess Kuining. Is there any hope for his grandson?" After all, Guan Nuo still cares most about whether he can be a son-in-law and whether he can have more rights in his hands.

"Don't worry, don't you know the character of Princess Jingning? She is a person who can be manipulated by others. She will not easily agree to marry anyone. After all these years, haven't you understood? Don't you think so? Marriage, but whether Princess Kuining wants to marry or not, you have begged the queen so many times, why haven't you got what you want, isn't it just that Princess Kuining is unwilling?" Prime Minister Guan shook his head, looking at the injured Guan Nuo, Hey, is it so good to be a consort?There are so many noble families, and it would be nice to have a peaceful life. Now the emperor does not want the clan to grow bigger, and intends to reduce its power. At this time, it is wise to protect oneself. Marrying a wife, the princess is not the best candidate.

Guan Nuo didn't believe it, and didn't believe what Prime Minister Guan said. "Grandpa, you know that Princess Yuning and I grew up together. In the past few years, due to the conflict between men and women, the chances of seeing each other have been reduced a lot. However, my aunt said that she wanted to promise Princess Yuning to me. Yes. The parents ordered the matchmaker to say, there is no room for Princess Qi Ning not to listen." After speaking harshly, she turned around and ran out to find Queen Guan.

"Hey, he's spoiled, he can't experience setbacks, anyway, it's good to let him suffer some setbacks." Prime Minister Guan sighed heavily, and walked to the study.
