Mrs. Mo said he would not agree

Mohen never woke up.

The imperial physician was sent in the palace, and the medicine was changed again, but what they said was to know the destiny by doing everything.

Mo Jingchun was not in a good mood, and when he got home, he looked even worse when he saw the empty yard.Mohen talks a lot, and sometimes he can be heard bluffing in the house, but now that there is one person missing, even Xiuhua and the others can't get excited.

Wei Yi came over with tea, and said softly, "It's Mohen's blessing that you care about him so much, don't worry about your health because of him."

Mo Jingchun frowned, and sighed softly, "He did this for me, how could he not be in a hurry?" Don't say that slavery is not slavery, over the past few years, feelings have also come out.

Wei Yi was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Are you sure it was the Lin family who did it?"

After all, when Mo Jingchun came back that night, he didn't say anything, he just locked himself in the study for a night, and when the next day came, the incident had already started.

Wei Yi was one of them who took over, and he is very aware of the weight of this. The problem is not limited to Lin, and may involve more people.

Even if His Majesty intends to find someone to expose this matter, the person who does it must be someone like Xue Qingliu Cunjian, or a pawn that can be discarded at will... It will definitely not be Mo Jingchun.

If it is a chess piece, they can play with it at will. If it is Xue Qingliu Cunjian and his ilk, they must be only ministers. If they cannot be loyal to His Majesty, they may not be able to survive.

But Mo Jingchun is different.

Emperor Zhengshi was determined not to allow anyone to put Mo Jingchun in danger.

Even the master himself can't.

So even though Wei Yi didn't face Zhengshi Emperor directly, he vaguely knew that His Majesty would definitely not have a good time at this moment.

I'm afraid I have to endure it again and again, so it doesn't happen.

Mo Jingchun said indifferently, "It's likely to be the Lin family, but it's also possible that someone else knew about this matter and did it. But since the Lin family is most likely, why should I look for others?"

His tone was a bit stern and solemn.

Wei Yi frowned slightly, "Lin Yushi is not such a stupid person." If he did it, how could he give Mohen a chance to escape?

Mo Jingchun raised his eyebrows, sipped hot tea and said, "It's not Lin Yushi who did it himself, there are too many people staring at him, and he will be noticed if he moves a little bit.

"I guess, he asked his own children to do it. Although there are many members of the Lin family who have become officials, the children of Lin Yushi did not participate in it.

"They have more time and it's easier to give up."

"Abandon?" Wei Yi said in surprise.

Mo Jingchun's expression was indifferent, "The inside of the Lin family is much more ruthless than the outside."

Mrs. Xu didn't say much before leaving, but it was enough for Mo Jingchun to guess the inherent uniqueness of the Lin family.

Compared with the blood connection of other aristocratic families, Lin's is also like this, but there is a crazy twist.Anyone who endangers the family can be abandoned, even if it is his own flesh and blood. Since Lin Yushi can treat his daughter whom he married in this way, he can naturally treat his son in the same way.

Men and women are not so different at this moment.

Wei Yi was silent for a while, looked at Mo Jingchun's face and said worriedly, "But since you have come forward, if this matter is really brought to light..."

Mo Jingchun laughed softly, and said to himself, "That depends on how His Majesty chooses."

Did he choose to start with Xu Shangde's matter, or Mo Jingchun handed it in, the collusion between Lin and King Qinghe began.

It is thanks to the King of Qin and the Heng family for finding this out.

If King Qin hadn't come here to probe, Mo Jingchun wouldn't have gone to find out about King He again. If it wasn't for Heng's grudge against King Qinghe and Lin, this investigation would not have been so smooth.

Mo Jingchun guessed, in fact, the Heng family realized that someone was investigating, but what they found was related to Qinghe Wang Lin's family, so they were happy to turn a blind eye.

Mo Jingchun said flatly, "The enemy of an enemy is a friend. This sentence is applicable to the present."

If it wasn't for Heng's private push, Mo Jingchun might not have gotten those things so quickly.

The power of choice has been handed over to Emperor Zhengshi by Mo Jingchun.

No matter which one you choose, it will never make Lin's life easier.

But just as Mo Jingchun thought, in the end Emperor Zhengshi chose the matter of King Qinghe.

The matter of King Qinghe is imminent, and there is Lin's collusion with King Qinghe in private, and the flow of money in it happens to be closely related to Xu Shangde's affairs. Although it is on the surface that he is trying to find out about King He, in private, the Lin family is in chaos.

After all, the person who came forward to conduct a thorough investigation was Xue Qing.

No one wants to provoke Xue Qing, a mad dog.

At this time, the so-called Dou's collection of books found a second copy.

This time the person who discovered it was Heng Shi.

The members of the Heng clan never imagined that in the dry well behind one of their old houses, they found a dozen boxes of Dou's collection of books. After confirming that the imprint on it was indeed related to this, the leader of the Heng clan looked at each other in dismay, and finally endured. The desire for monopoly sent the collection of books fished out of the dry well to the Hanlin Academy.

Yes, instead of going to Jingzhao Mansion, it was sent to the Imperial Academy.

When Zhang Qianzhao got up in the morning and happily went to work, he looked at the boxes of the large carts outside the gate of the Imperial Academy, surprised and delighted, and went straight to the center.

The joy is that these things are indeed extremely precious, and no one who loves books is unwilling to see them; the surprise is that the previous books have not been processed yet, and yet another pile comes.

Why can't Hengshi take this car to Jingzhao Mansion? !

No matter what happens here, he can't settle the case!

Jingzhao Mansion was overjoyed, and sent a few people to count the quantity, and after recording it, he waved his hand and said that it was temporarily placed in the Imperial Academy.

Zhang Qianzhao continued to pinch people, and finally asked people to send things into the warehouse. When he turned around, he met the old Hanlin whose eyes were red.

"Xueshi Zhang, don't forget about me!"

"It was the turn of the highly respected old Hanlin before, and I also recognized it, but this group must have our name?"

"Just one, just one!"

This appearance of scrambling to be the first is a rare reaction in these stable and elegant old Hanlin.

Zhang Qianzhao was miserable.

On the other side, Gu Liufang had known for a long time that the Hanlin Academy had brought a new batch of books, so people were already heading towards the Imperial Academy.Thanks to this great Confucianism, the Hanlin in the courtyard was unwilling to lose their demeanor in front of him, so they started to behave again one by one.

Zhang Qianzhao waited until Gu Liufang appeared, and then he couldn't help complaining, and said helplessly, "The palms and backs of these hands are full of flesh, and it will be really troublesome to find them again."

Gu Daru walked beside these carts of ancient books, and said with a smile, "What's the difficulty? You will send someone to pick out all these ancient books later to have a look. If it is in any aspect, it will be inconvenient for the Hanlin who is good at it to come over." ?”

This is indeed the reason, but even the selection of people is very difficult.

After all, they were all scrambling for the first place, and they were afraid that they would not be selected.

Zhang Qianzhao: "Are you busy these few days? If so, I'm really bothering you." Even though he is a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, standing in front of Gu Liufang, his attitude is very humble.

This is the face that Gu Liufang will have in front of scholars all over the world.

Gu Liufang shook her head, sighed and said, "Everything else is fine, but Your Majesty wants me to find a husband for the eldest prince. Now that I am old, I can't care about teaching students anymore. If you choose from my sect, you have to be careful." Consider carefully."

Zhang Qianzhao was slightly surprised, then happy.

Emperor Zhengshi finally started to think about finding a husband for the First Prince.

This matter of studying and studying is very important. When His Highness the Crown Prince was less than three years old, Emperor Zhengshi had actually already started to find a gentleman for the Crown Prince.

After counting them all, they were all well-known scholars at home and abroad. Until later, there were capable people like Xu Boheng and Gu Liufang, but they were scrupulous in every way.

With this comparison, we can still see the indifference of Emperor Zhengshi.But at least remember to find a husband, it's better than just making up numbers when you were five years old.

Zhang Qianzhao, "I heard that the First Prince's personality is a little more reserved and quiet. It will indeed take a lot of time to find a suitable wife."

Gu Liufang's hair was gray and she was over seventy years old, but her body was extremely healthy, she walked fast, and she didn't accept her age at all.From his face, it is really hard to see that he is a gentleman who reads and teaches people.

Back then, Gu Liufang and Donggong had conflicts frequently.

Both are stubborn.

Emperor Zhengshi despised Gu Liufang for being pedantic, and Gu Liufang despised Emperor Zhengshi for jumping off the hook, but each other was happy with each other. Emperor Zhengshi admired Gu Liufang's knowledge, and Gu Liufang was delighted by Gong Yeqi's quick wit. In the end, he could only hold his nose and bear it .

When Gu Liufang learned about His Majesty's intentions, she knew that the Emperor did not intend to let him teach in person.

If the eldest prince had been enlightened by Gu Liufang when he was young, then Gu Liufang would be in charge of his subsequent studies.This reputation is a good thing for the eldest prince, but it is also a bad thing.

While Gu Liufang was looking through these ancient books, part of her mind was still on Emperor Zhengshi.

His Majesty is unwilling to find a gentleman who is too prestigious for the First Prince. It can be said that it is for his own good, but it can also be said... Gu Liufang closed her eyes slightly, maybe His Majesty did not intend to let the First Prince...

Gu Liufang sighed.

Forget it, it's better for him not to interfere in these matters.

What your majesty wants to do is also your majesty's business.

Gu Liufang decided to write a letter when he got back, but among his disciples, there were one or two Mr. Kaimeng who were suitable to be the First Prince.

Let's talk about what His Majesty wants to do in the future.

And in the Empress Dowager's Palace, when the Empress Dowager learned that Her Majesty was already selecting a master for the First Prince, she still couldn't help saying a few words of Amitabha in her heart.

The female officer Xiulin said happily, "Empress Dowager, in this way, you don't have to worry."

People's hearts are fleshy, and the queen mother has raised the eldest prince for so long, so of course it is impossible to have no affection at all.Especially since this child is His Majesty's firstborn, the freshness is still there.

The First Prince is also a good person, knowing that the Empress Dowager cares about him, he often reciprocates, which makes the Empress Dowager very upset, unwilling to let down the good intentions of the child.

The Empress Dowager said helplessly, "The emperor is just stubborn, and the Ai family is worried that he will continue to be so stubborn, so don't really raise the eldest prince."

She always had an unknown worry in her heart, fearing that the eldest prince would be the first and only child in the palace.

After all, in the past few years, apart from Mo Jingchun, there was really no one around the emperor.The Empress Dowager also didn't know what was going on with the emperor, even this court lady had a lot of good looks, so why did she just fall in love with Mo Jingchun?

But the Empress Dowager didn't know much about Mo Jingchun in the past. After knowing the importance of Mo Jingchun to the emperor, the Empress Dowager could only acquiesce, and sometimes even cover up one or two things for Her Majesty.

Just at a time when everything inside and outside the court seemed calm except for the occasional turmoil, Emperor Zhengshi received a special letter at his desk.

The next day, the First Prince who had never set foot in Changle Palace was called over by Emperor Zhengshi.

The Eldest Prince had never had any contact with Emperor Zhengshi alone, except at banquets or in the Empress Dowager's Palace, the elder and younger had never met each other. This time, the Eldest Prince was scared to death. He stood in front of the Changle Palace, The whole person seemed a little timid and nervous, and his two small hands were clenched into small fists, hidden in the sleeves.

Liu Hao could see the nervousness of the eldest prince, and said in a low voice, "Eldest prince, please come with your slaves."

The eldest prince nodded slightly, and followed Liu Hao into Changle Palace with short legs.

Emperor Zhengshi was sitting in the next room correcting the memorial. On his left hand side, there was a thick pile of documents that had been piled up. The breath of pen and ink floated in, mixed with a slightly bitter fragrance. With a clear mind, there seems to be a lingering taste.

This made the First Prince's dazed expression clear, and he saluted nervously.

He was not very old in the first place, and was ordered by the Queen Mother to wear more clothes before going out. As a result, the whole villain was wrapped into a small ball. The ball rolled to the desk with a grunt, even Zhengshi Emperor was stunned for a moment, paused while burying his head in the copybook, and raised his head.

I saw a small head poking out from below.

Whether it hurts or not, it is extremely insulting.

Liu Hao endured and endured, so he didn't laugh at this moment.

Emperor Zhengshi didn't have any scruples at all, he chuckled lightly, and said casually, "Such a great gift, but it's really a slap in the face."

The eldest prince might not be able to perceive his sincerity, but he felt the faint coolness that his father had always treated him, so he hurriedly got up and stood up straight, not even daring to pat his knee.

Zhengshi Emperor squinted, and said unhurriedly, "Eldest Prince, your grandfather has passed away."

grandfather?

The eldest prince was a little at a loss. His closest relatives in the palace were his grandmother and grandfather...it should be the people from his mother's side.Perhaps it was because after the Jiao family was abolished, it gradually became a taboo in the palace. No one had ever mentioned the matter of the Jiao family to him. If he is a little older, let's talk about the entanglement of the problems.

So when Emperor Zhengshi said this, the First Prince might not have reacted.

Eldest Prince, "Grandfather passed away. According to the etiquette, is it necessary for sons and ministers to offer condolences?"

He is still young, but he still understands these etiquettes.

Emperor Zhengshi nodded, and said unhurriedly, "Jiao's is still a good family in this family. Although the roots are rotten, no matter how hard the people above are, it is useless. But since Jiao Ming passed away, you should go to express condolences."

But Liu Hao couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, the journey is long, and only the eldest prince is alone, isn't it a bit..."

Emperor Zhengshi glanced at him unhurriedly, and Liu Hao shut up.

"The escort will be carefully selected by the widow, and go back to prepare first." Emperor Zhengshi said lightly, "Departure tomorrow."

The eldest prince was a little dazed, and after answering, he was sent back to the Empress Dowager's palace.

When the Queen Mother first heard about it, she also agreed with Emperor Zhengshi's words.

It's fine if it's someone else, the eldest son of the Jiao family passed away, such an alternation is not easy, and the Eldest Prince really has to go to mourn.Although in the past few years, the First Prince had never had any contact with the Jiao family, the proper etiquette must still be done.

Especially Jiao's reputation.

It's just... What the queen mother is worried about is that she has never explained these things to the eldest prince in these years, and now it is only a day... Is this enough?

The death of the eldest son of the Jiao family was not a secret, and Mo Jingchun knew about it earlier.

Long before Mohen had an accident.

After all, it was for this reason that Mohen traveled frequently between Mo Mansion and Huaizhen Square in the first place.

From this, Mo Jingchun guessed the reason why the eldest prince left the palace.

The eldest son of the Jiao family passed away, and this is the grandfather of the first prince, and the Jiao family's family is in the north, not too far from the capital.

It is also feasible to hurry up for a while.

Did the First Prince go out of the palace because he wanted to pay homage to his grandfather, and then had an accident on the way?

Mo Jingchun couldn't help asking, "Your tasks are always very ambiguous, so there are no other conditions?"

For example, the first prince's mission only said to protect the first prince, but there was no cause and history of the incident, and now everything can only be guessed by Mo Jingchun.

Didn't you guess right?

These are two different things at all.

Mo Jingchun held back a sigh and continued to deliberate.

The matter of the Eldest Prince leaving the palace must be in these few days. If he leaves the palace immediately, there will definitely be someone around the Eldest Prince to protect him.

But if this protection works, then the spirits won't go on special missions, which means that under normal circumstances, the manpower sent to protect the First Prince is far from enough... Or maybe there are moles in the team?

No matter what the reason was, this caused the eldest prince to have an accident in the end.

It is most unfeasible to prevent the First Prince from leaving the capital. This will also ruin the First Prince's reputation. The best way is to ask His Majesty to send more people and be more considerate.

But according to His Majesty's indifference to the eldest prince, is it possible for Emperor Zhengshi to send more people?

Thinking of the inner problems, Mo Jingchun couldn't help but sigh.

He got up suddenly, strode out under Wei Yi's surprised gaze, and said calmly, "Wei Yi, I want to enter the palace."

Wei Yi hurriedly followed behind Mo Jingchun, and said suspiciously, "Are you going to enter the palace now?"

This time is a bit late.

Usually at this time, not to mention entering the palace, Emperor Zhengshi often came to find Mo Jingchun on his own initiative, but Mo Jingchun did not take the initiative to enter the palace to find someone.

Mo Jingchun couldn't tell what he had guessed in his mind, so he could only let Wei Yi misunderstand his purpose.

Seeing that Mo Jingchun wasn't lying, Wei Yi immediately happily went to prepare the carriage, but Mo Jingchun felt a little headache looking at the snow scene outside.

If Mohen doesn't wake up again, according to the imperial doctor's opinion, it may continue like this forever, maintaining this weird state.

Neither wake up nor die, just fall asleep.

On that day, when the imperial physician said this, Mohen's old parents and his wife who hadn't married were all there.

That was also the first time Mo Jingchun saw the girl Mo Hen was thinking of.

She is indeed a good girl, with beautiful features, but extremely tough.

It was she who comforted Mohen's collapsed parents, and firmly believed that Mohen would wake up.

It is undeniable that it was her optimism and determination that made Mo Jingchun feel better that day.

only……

"Lang Jun?"

Wei Yi's cry disturbed Mo Jingchun, and he let out a long breath.

It's just that this winter, when will it pass?

When Mo Jingchun entered the palace, it was already night, and the lights on both sides of the palace road shone on the white snow, casting a dazzling brilliance.The indistinct phantom is hidden in the dark, and the moment it flashes by, only a few mottled spots can be seen.Mo Jingchun could have entered the palace in a carriage or a sedan chair, this was allowed by Emperor Zhengshi from the very beginning.

However, Mo Jingchun didn't want to be unique, and every time he went in, he still stepped into the palace.

Only today is an exception. It has been snowing heavily for several days, and the entire imperial city has been covered with ice. Emperor Zhengshi had prepared early on the plan that Mo Jingchun might refuse to enter the palace, and had already asked the replacement carriage to wait in front of the palace gate. .

Mo Jingchun had no choice but to change the carriage again.

However, in order to prevent the horses from falling, they have taken precautions on the hoofs, so that even the rolling of the cart is almost silent.

When the carriage stopped at Changle Palace, the figure of Emperor Zhengshi was outside the palace gate.

His eyes are bright.

As soon as Mo Jingchun got out of the carriage, he saw Emperor Zhengshi's scorching eyes, which made him short of breath for a moment.

Mo Jingchun's heart curled up softly, sour.

He got out of the carriage, and as soon as he stepped up the steps, the emperor grabbed his wrist and walked over to the palace together.

Seeing how happy he was, Mo Jingchun couldn't even tell the truth for a while.

Gongye Qi was really happy.

Even from his facial features, expression, words and deeds, he could see his happiness.

This is the first time that Mo Jingchun has taken the initiative to enter the palace after those incidents. How can this not make Emperor Zhengshi happy?

Mo Jingchun felt guilty, so the words stuck in his throat, and he couldn't bear to speak out at this time.

Before Mo Jingchun came, Emperor Zhengshi was obviously still handling government affairs.

After all, in winter, there is also the danger of heavy snow collapsing everywhere. When the winter just entered, the imperial court had already alerted all the places. In addition, today’s cold snap is even more frightening than in previous years. Gongyeqi had people take measures early. If there is an accident, it can be implemented immediately.

Mo Jingchun smelled the faint fragrance of ink on Gongyeqi's body, raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty is still dealing with court affairs?"

Emperor Zhengshi smiled lightly and said, "It's just some endings that haven't been finished yet."

He didn't mind pulling Mo Jingchun to sit down. The open files were just a short distance away, and if he turned his head slightly, he could clearly see the contents inside.

Mo Jingchun even saw the military situation ahead.

Emperor Zhengshi picked them up casually and handed them to Mo Jingchun to see.

Mo Jingchun was not pretentious, opened it to take a look, and found that in the severe winter, both sides were dormant.The rebel army, who had always been invincible, seemed to have suppressed their arrogance, and they were no longer as arrogant as before.

Mo Jingchun thought about it and said, "Does Your Majesty have any other orders for Brother?"

This is something Mo Jingchun has always suspected.

Emperor Zhengshi smiled lightly and said, "I'm still thinking, when will Master not be able to resist asking this question to the widow." As soon as he said this, it meant that he had.

Mo Jingchun didn't know why he felt uneasy in his heart, but in the end he didn't ask, but just glanced at the content in silence.

"...But King Guangping?"

These words were completely different from before, but Emperor Zhengshi still took it up naturally, "Master is right, King Guangping and King Qinghe really broke up."

Mo Jingchun raised his eyebrows, and said strangely, "According to King Guangping's character, he must have made up his mind to join forces with King Qinghe to rebel against him. How could it be that halfway through, he suddenly doesn't want to cooperate?"

This is an act of saying it out loud, even King Qinghe couldn't do it, let alone King Guangping.

Emperor Zhengshi pointedly said, "If he finds out, in fact, his good son has hidden evil intentions from the beginning. Even going to the capital, he didn't come to collect books as he thought, but he came with the intention of seeking skins from tigers." Plan, Master thinks, does King Guangping still think he has a reason to go out?"

Mo Jingchun was slightly surprised, and after a while he said slowly, "Your Majesty, from the very beginning, didn't you kill everyone around Prince Guangping?"

Emperor Zhengshi nodded.

Mo Jingchun thought that His Majesty had been dazzled by the anger and killed everyone... But those people captured by Jingzhao Mansion later may have been disguised by His Majesty, but he did not expect that there was a real Those who have sons... Moreover, His Majesty will definitely let those people out!

Only if it is inadvertent, and it has to be the prince's own person, can it be possible to win the trust of King Guangping.

Even if such "facts" may turn out to be false, whether to believe it or not is up to King Quang Binh himself.

Mo Jingchun murmured, "Why did you have to wait until King Guangping followed King Qinghe to raise troops before His Majesty let King Guangping know about it?"

Is it because King Guangping offended Emperor Zhengshi?

No, not to mention whether Emperor Zhengshi would be so boring, even if he was really so boring, why did the people chosen not be such trash as King Xuhuai, but King Guangping?

At least King Guangping was very peaceful.

The territory of King Guangping and King Qinghe is close, if both sides raise troops together, it will be very powerful.

In addition, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court have been unable to take King Qinghe for a long time, even if Mo Guangsheng arrived later, it would still be the same.In this way, there is a feeling that this battle lasted for a long time.

...Why does Mo Jingchun have a feeling that this is the deliberate illusion of Emperor Zhengshi?

He looked at Emperor Zhengshi suspiciously, but no cause and effect could be seen from his face.

Emperor Zhengshi laughed, "Master's guess is right, this incident was indeed intentional."

It wasn't the first time that Mo Jingchun had that strange premonition welling up in his heart.He seized the flash of inspiration and said abruptly, "Your Majesty is trying to create momentum."

The emperor was looking at him, but Mo Jingchun hadn't finished speaking.

"Your Majesty is deliberately making the vicinity of Qinghe into a bitter battle, so that the common people and families will think that this battle still has to be fought, and when the time comes..."

Mo Jingchun's breathing was slightly suffocated, because of what he thought of.

"Your Majesty, are you right?"

Mo Jingchun looked at Gongyeqi word by word.

Emperor Zhengshi clapped his hands and smiled, "That's true."

From the very beginning, the emperor had been expecting King Qinghe's rebellion, or in other words, it was in Emperor Zhengshi's plan to anger King Qinghe and make King Qinghe rebel.

However, the assassination of Mo Jingchun by King Qinghe angered the emperor in turn, so that he took the lead in attacking Prince Qinghe's son, so there was this turmoil.

The root of it lies in what Emperor Zhengshi had been planning from the very beginning.

Mo Jingchun suddenly stood up, "Your Majesty, that is all human life!"

Emperor Zhengshi said calmly, "Master, there is Mo Guangsheng, and he knows how to use the least cost to accomplish what I want to do. As for the people's livelihood... Master, don't you understand?

"The aristocratic family has existed for hundreds of years and thousands of years. Naturally, they are good. Not everyone is from the Jiao family, but more from the Lin and Dou families. As long as they are still there, as long as their foundation is still there, the people below will have no future. .”

Mo Jingchun frowned, and said seriously, "Your Majesty is right, but now there are still imperial examinations, and the imperial examinations every three years alone can send many officials to the imperial court. This is already..."

"That's right, master, you also know how many of these officials are from noble backgrounds every year?"

Mo Jingchun pursed her lips tightly.

Like Xi and Fang, even though his background is indeed unbearable, he is indeed a person who has come out of a family.

And this number accounted for half of the three palace examinations presided over by Emperor Zhengshi.

Emperor Zhengshi ascended the throne for four years and opened Enke twice.

Plus one regular examination, a total of three times.

After three exams, the number of people who can finally enter the officialdom is more than 100 people.

Compared with the scholars in the whole world, such a number is very small, and half of them will be allocated to the powerful families.In a few years, I am afraid that not all of these noble backgrounds will occupy all the places.

And Mo Jingchun can even imagine that these officials who are still active in recent years, their descendants will become an obstacle to the next generation of poor children in a few decades.

Children and grandchildren are endless.

No matter how hard you try, family background has a great influence on learning, and reading is still not something that ordinary people can maintain. If the channel of ascension is controlled again, even if the imperial court wants to do something, it will be powerless.

Education and reading is not something that can be implemented in one or two years, but an industry that takes ten, fifty, or a hundred years to run through generations.

It took one or two hundred years for the Gongye Dynasty to get to where it is today.

Mo Jingchun put his hand on his forehead, and said softly, "Even if the quota is released, most of those who can get in the exam are from families of scholars. Even if you want to get more common people's backgrounds, the exams are all based on their own abilities. Deviation, that is fraud in the imperial examination, but ruined the reputation of the imperial examination.

"And the number every three years is enough for the time being to change the officialdom. If you open a few hundred more, it will cause complicated things... But even so, it is still not enough. If you want to broaden the wisdom of the people, you have to let people everywhere Start respecting readers...

"That's why last year, Your Majesty, you added a law. As long as you get fame, you can meet officials without kneeling."

As a Juren, you can even receive money from the government every month.

This is specially approved by the government.

Don't look at this small change, especially not kneeling when meeting officials, which allows the common people to clearly distinguish the differences between people.

I can see the benefits of reading more.

And as long as they got the title in the general examination, but not in Chunwei, they can also choose to enter the officialdom without taking the Jinshi examination, but at this time their official position may not be high, and sometimes they will not be popular.

But you can also be an official.

Mo Jingchun could tell that Emperor Zhengshi sincerely wanted to keep this upward channel going.And since the orthodoxy of the imperial examination is to be maintained, some unorthodox ones that should not exist will always need to be dealt with heavily.

This includes the family.

The amount of tax paid by the aristocratic family is extremely low every year. This is a promise made by the founder of the dynasty to the aristocratic family in the early years, allowing the land under their name not to pay tribute taxes. In this way, it can be said that it was a means to attract the aristocratic family at first, but Over time, another problem arises.

Where the aristocratic family is located, there are stretches of fields, and perhaps all of them belong to them.

That amount is not hundreds of acres, or even tens of thousands of acres.

Sometimes, half of the fields in the entire county are in their name.

With such a huge number, as long as the local family exists, it means that the taxation is basically fruitless.

Even the common people will be greedy for this tax, and will take the initiative to name the land under the name of the family.

For a long time, there was a song that said that every thousand acres of fertile land and gold, the world is full of aristocratic family farms.

Although this remark seems biased, it is enough to show the folks' views on the family.

Mo Jingchun thought about the cause and effect, with a slight worry on his face, "If this is the case, His Majesty has to worry about another important matter." He looked at Emperor Zhengshi, and suddenly said softly.

"Since the common people think so, why doesn't His Majesty bestow such an honor on scholars?"

Emperor Zhengshi raised his eyebrows to look at Mo Jingchun, and heard him say unhurriedly, "The common people only see the most superficial things, no wonder they are. After all, they only face the loess and their backs to the sky. They work hard on weekdays. Do not force to be enlightened. But scholars do not kneel when they encounter officials, they can receive money from the government, plus..."

Mo Jingchun tapped the table with his fingers, and said calmly, "Even if you have won the title of Juren, even if you are not an official, the fertile land under your name does not need to pay taxes."

Such actions have invisibly elevated the status of scholars.

Let the world see that reading is really a way out.

Emperor Zhengshi smiled, "The master's move is to make the widows cut off their flesh."

Mo Jingchun shook his head with a faint smile, and said helplessly, "No matter how you cut the flesh, it is definitely not as plundering as the aristocratic family." His expression became serious, "But, if you want to go this way, you need to be alert to the disaster ahead. "

His expression was calm, but his voice was extremely serious.

"If the Juren's family does not pay the land tax, the property of the family must pass through the Ming Road in the government. Once the Ming Road is passed, even if there is a document in private, if it is not fair, it will be a completely invalid written record.

"Otherwise, just like today's aristocratic family with ten thousand mu of fertile land, those fields are no longer the fields of the common people, but the fields of the aristocratic family.

"If the common people don't know it, can the family still know it?"

Emperor Zhengshi said unhurriedly, "If you push out what is beneficial to you, it will appear too stupid."

Mo Jingchun sighed, "Having learned from the past, His Majesty only needs to ask the government to explain that only official documents are recognized and private documents are not recognized when there is such a thing of affiliation in the future. It is their own responsibility to rely on them.”

If you are greedy for profit, you will not be able to persuade, and you can no longer blame others.

Emperor Zhengshi said, "My master thinks long-term."

Mo Jingchun raised his eyebrows, "I just feel that since I hope that one thing will never happen again, then don't give temptation from the beginning. No one can tell what human nature is. These ten years are still the two of you and me, and the next 20 Nian is afraid that he will be resentful for a lifetime, who can say clearly?

"Perhaps the aristocratic family was also thinking of the common people at the beginning, and that's why they accepted the matter of affiliation, but as time passed, it was not the common people's field, but the aristocratic family's field.

"The same is true for scholars. People don't read books, they must know shame."

People's hearts are upward, and human nature is downward.Never test humanity.

Mo Jingchun's words caused Emperor Zhengshi to look sideways, and he said dissatisfiedly, "Master, does this mean something?"

Mo Jingchun was slightly taken aback, what is the meaning?

Isn't he just talking about the test?

Emperor Zhengshi was unwilling to let him go, "It's hard for Master to take the initiative to come back, but he ended up talking about so many business matters with the widow." He glanced at the timekeeping device, "Well, this is a waste of a full two quarters of an hour. gone."

Mo Jingchun "..."

Cough, he suddenly remembered the business of entering the palace.

Seeing the evil thoughts of wolf and tiger flashing in His Majesty's eyes, Mo Jingchun hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, you already knew about the news of the death of the eldest son of the Jiao family?"

Emperor Zhengshi's eyes were fixed on Mo Jingchun's body, and he said perfunctorily, "Indeed, I have asked the First Prince to go to mourn."

Condolences!

That's it.

Mo Jingchun was slightly happy in his heart, but on his face he said, "Your Majesty, the Eldest Prince is still young, if you plan to send the Eldest Prince to mourn, do you need to send some more people there?"

Emperor Zhengshi came back to his senses, raised his eyebrows and looked at Mo Jingchun with a strange look on his face.
