[Red House] Ban'er's Road to Imperial Examination

Even though Wang Yue's heart was agitated because of the two names of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he tried his best to keep calm on his face and did not show it in front of others. Moreover, because of his pale face, his occasional gaffes It was also attributed to illness, and no one doubted what he was thinking.

After a while, the old doctor finished prescribing the medicine, and asked the assistant to grab the medicine. Wang Gou'er couldn't wait to carry his son back to the carriage. He didn't plan to buy any more, so he wanted to go home and make medicine for his son. go.

Passing by a bookstore on the way, Wang Yue insisted on getting out of the car to buy a few books, but Wang Gou'er refused desperately, but at Wang Yue's request, he still couldn't resist, got out of the car helplessly, and went to buy books for his son himself.

After getting the book, Wang Yue couldn't wait to start flipping through it. These are a few books about evaluating the reform of Emperor Tianzheng. Because the writing is very pertinent, they are especially popular among the students. Wang Yue relied on these few books before This book understands the difference in this time and space.

But now, he doubts whether there are new changes in this time and space. If there are new changes, will the book be changed because of this?

At this time, it was not only Wang Yue who was worried about this problem, but also everyone in the Qianqing Palace.

Early this morning, Emperor Tianxi took the excuse of thinking about Emperor Tianzheng, and brought the emperor and the prince into the palace where Emperor Tianzheng lived, saying that he wanted to mourn Emperor Tianzheng.

In addition, he summoned several old officials who were used by Emperor Tianzheng to go together. This is an act of filial piety, and the courtiers are only happy.

Therefore, early in the morning, the emperor ordered the ministers who came to the court to briefly explain the matter, and then let them go back, and took the prince to pick up the Supreme Emperor, and then went to the palace where Emperor Tianzheng lived before his death.

It's just that the atmosphere in the palace is not as sad as outsiders imagined, but very tense. The few people in the palace did not go to pay respects to the tablet of Emperor Tianzheng, but sat in the front hall expressionlessly, with serious faces, As if waiting for some bad news.

Emperor Yongning sat quietly in his seat with the crown prince. He didn't know what happened, why his father and these old ministers behaved like this, but he wisely kept silent.

As for the prince Tuhui, he also maintained a quietness that was out of tune with his age, and he didn't say a word.

Not long after, a grumpy old minister from the military couldn't help standing up, and growled, "Are those Taoist monks eating for nothing? After so many years, they still can't find a way to deal with two mere monsters." The methods of the evil way are all of them!"

"I'm afraid it may not be the case." A white-haired but handsome civil servant stroked his beard and smiled, "I'm afraid they are Mr. Dong Guo who are just pretending to be counting!"

As soon as he said this, the eyes of several veteran ministers sharpened, and they turned their gazes to Emperor Tianxi who was sitting on top. This action was a bit out of bounds, but Emperor Tianxi was not unhappy because of their rudeness, These old ministers are the hands left by his father, who supported him to secure the throne when he was still young, and retreated bravely when he was in power. They are the most trusted people of Emperor Tianxi.

Emperor Tianxi smiled and explained: "These few people were personally selected by Master Fangzheng and Master Yuan'an. The Lingdi Treasure was used to nurture them, and now their mana cannot be underestimated, this time they calculated the plan of the two people in advance, and believe that in time, they will be able to bring those two people to justice."

The ministers all nodded. The most important thing about these people with some special abilities is not whether they have strong mana, but whether they are loyal or not. They would rather spend more time and energy than keep those capable people who are not loyal to the royal family.

With the words of Emperor Tianxi, the faces of those veteran officials relaxed, and one of them suggested: "Actually, this is an opportunity. Based on the last incident, we can roughly calculate the scope of the change. At least the national treasury is There will definitely be no shortage of food and money in the treasury, and the technology left by His Majesty will not disappear, the only thing that may change is the cabinet above the court, and the military committee of the military."

"What kind of opportunity is this? We have worked so hard to plan for so many years, and now all of us have returned to our original shape, and our thoughts were wasted. I don't think you think it's a pity."

"Of course I think it's a pity, but no matter how pity it is, it can't change the result of this matter. Instead of wasting time on pity that is of no use, it's better to think about how to make it worse. After everyone reacts Prepare well in advance to maximize our interests."

"Old Liu is still right. If you want to say it's a pity, which one of you here doesn't think it's a pity? After all, it's all so many years of hard work, and if it's gone, it's gone. It can't be said in one sentence, but everyone is very human. , You should know that it is a pity that this kind of emotion is the most undesirable, now let's think about how to use this opportunity to turn the disadvantage into an advantage."

Emperor Tianxi's words set the tone for today's discussion, and everyone fell silent, lowering their heads and thinking about what Emperor Tianxi said.

After a while, the old minister who proposed before said: "Just now I said that this matter is an opportunity, not to comfort others. Think about it, the current situation is just like what His Majesty said back then. We have practiced hard. My number, although the level has returned to zero, but the equipment and gold coins saved in the previous leveling are still there, and the experience from the previous leveling is still there, so what if you do it all over again? With experience, equipment, and money, We will only do better again, so why should we be afraid?"

His words won everyone's approval, and everyone nodded and said: "This is quite reasonable. The most important thing is that with experience, we don't have to take the previous detours, which not only saves a lot of effort, but also benefits the country and the people." Favorable, thinking about it this way, we have to thank them."

Emperor Tianxi nodded in satisfaction when he heard the words, "Not only do you have the benefits you mentioned, but there is another benefit."

As he said that, he turned his eyes to the quiet Emperor Yongning, and said to him: "I'm afraid you won't believe me when I tell you the inside story of this matter, but after a while, you may see it with your own eyes, and you will probably believe it. At that time, I will tell you the whole story again, but now I want to say that the cabinet above the court may disappear. This is a good opportunity for you. The cabinet is a wish that scholars in the world have been waiting for for many years. When you raise this matter in the court, I am afraid that you will immediately get the support of scholars all over the world, and then I don't have to worry about your lack of prestige, and you will not be able to suppress the court."

Not to mention the shock that Emperor Yongning felt when he heard that the cabinet would disappear, but he was overjoyed when he heard his father said that he was asked to propose the establishment of a cabinet, so he couldn't care less about the shock.

He knew that when the emperor's grandfather fought in the world, although his reputation spread far and wide, he was inevitably criticized by the literati all over the world, and he was called a martial artist. He worshiped his imperial grandfather as a god, and sang countless praises, wishing to call his imperial grandfather together with the ancient Three Emperors and Five Emperors.

In the past few years, although he has inherited the throne, and his father has retired to the Daming Palace for the elderly and no longer manages political affairs, but because his skills in handling political affairs are still immature, there are not many people he can trust, and his prestige is not enough. , I don't know how many veterans despised him, and those brothers who were originally vassal kings in the fief also had a different heart.

This time, for the sake of chanting scriptures for the queen, he handed over the government to his father and asked his father to act as his agent for a few days. Immediately, there was a wave of asking the Supreme Emperor to take over the power again in the court, and privately, I don't know how many people spread the news. There were rumors that the Supreme Emperor was dissatisfied with him as the emperor and wanted to abolish him as the emperor and re-elect a new emperor.

If it wasn't for the strong suppression of the father, and the father-son charity with him in front of others, with the appearance of being the main one, the situation in the court would have been unstable.

Although he is grateful to his father for not being in love with power and power, and grateful to his father for always thinking of him, but he occasionally has the idea that he is incompetent, so that his father still has to worry about him at such an old age.

All the time, he didn't want to establish his prestige in the court, make the courtiers surrender, and let the world return to his heart.

But he is also unwilling to use blood to pave the way for his own imperial path without reason. He is more willing to use his own ability and the practical things he has done for the people of the world to accumulate his prestige.

However, this road requires a little more patience, and he has already prepared for it to take many years, but he did not expect to have this opportunity now.

But soon he collected his thoughts, stood up, bowed his head and declined, "Father, son..."

It's just that he hasn't said his resignation yet, Emperor Tianxi already knew how he would react, and interrupted him with an impatient look, waving his hand: "Don't resign in front of me, I'm already old, don't worry about it In a few years, this court has been handed over to you. If you do not have enough prestige to subdue the courtiers and the world, sooner or later there will be troubles. Do you want me to plead guilty to the ancestors of our apprentice family after a hundred years?"

Emperor Yongning was so refuted by his words that he didn't know what to say, so he could only give a bitter smile silently, but he also knew that this was a time when the fate of the disciple family was at stake, and he couldn't tolerate his refusal, so he just smiled, not talking too much, He simply and neatly took over this burden.

On the contrary, his reaction made Emperor Tianxi and several senior ministers look at them with high regard, thinking in their hearts that they are worthy of being the grandsons raised by His Majesty in those years. They really have the heritage of their ancestors, and the world will be prosperous for another generation in his hands.

Emperor Tianxi had long ordered the Imperial Academy to collect and organize the government orders and memorials from various places over the years, and brought them here after summarizing them one by one. Summarize the gains and losses one by one, and prepare a proper plan for the subsequent restart.

Naturally, it was not the turn of Emperor Yongning, who had just been in power for a few years, to intervene, but Emperor Yongning listened with gusto.

This discussion is a rare class for Emperor Yongning. Even though Emperor Tianxi never hides his secrets and is not stingy in imparting his own experience, Emperor Tianxi is not a god. Emperor Yongning is even more deficient here.

And the few people in front of them are almost the smartest politicians in the world. Their thoughts collided and the ideas they produced were definitely a great supplement to Emperor Yongning who was in short supply of skills and experience.

Even though the still childish Tu Hui didn't quite understand their conversation, he was very keen at such a young age and he still realized that this conversation was very important to his future. If he could understand it properly, he would never end up benefiting from it all his life. .

So even though he couldn't understand, he still exerted all his energy to forcibly write down their conversation.

The conversation continued until the afternoon, and they continued after eating something at noon. Although the eunuchs and guards outside the door were anxious, they did not dare to disturb them because of the orders left by the emperor and the Supreme Emperor.

And in the afternoon, at a certain moment, as if they suddenly sensed something, they stopped talking at the same time, raised their heads, and looked in a certain direction.

"Where is it?"

Emperor Tianxi nodded and fell silent. The heated atmosphere in the room suddenly became more solemn, and everyone didn't want to talk. After a while, a man in black came out from the back hall and knelt down in front of Emperor Tianxi: " Your Majesty, they have been driven back."

Emperor Tianxi didn't care about this question, but asked, "Has the outside world changed?"

"Yes."

Emperor Tianxi sighed, and said to the man in black: "Go down first, and report the specific situation later."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The man in black retreated, Emperor Tianxi looked at his son Emperor Yongning and grandson Tu Hui and said, "You should be very curious about what happened to us today. I will reveal the answer later, but don't show it no matter how shocked you are."

Emperor Yongning heard the seriousness in his words, and quickly stood up together with his son Tu Hui, bowed his head to reassure, Emperor Tianxi sighed deeply again, and then called Dai Quan who was guarding outside loudly, Let them see what happens this time!

The author has something to say: At home today, my dad was fine, so he said he wanted to pick up the bricks and sundries piled up in front of the house, and then we found a nest of hedgehogs under the first pile, and a nest of hedgehogs under the second pile. A nest of crabs, a snake was found under the third pile, and seriously, the biodiversity in my house is really high! !
