The next day, the people in the capital quickly discovered that the atmosphere in the court was a bit strange.
In the past, when ministers went to court, they would sit in large and small sedan chairs, which were very comfortable and rocking all the way.
Today, they are all walking, and none of them look good.
Before dawn, the group of courtiers had already arrived at the palace gate.
They didn't whisper to each other, after all, what happened last night gave them too much shock.
In the end, if the Mexican League were to investigate thoroughly for this result, they would not be able to escape the blame.
The prime minister took the lead, and everyone stood waiting with serious faces.
Finally, when the palace door was opened, the chamberlain shouted, and these people filed in.
The team was lined up neatly.
When they arrived at the main hall, there were still soft chairs, but none of them sat down.
It wasn't until "The Emperor has arrived" that the group of people raised their heads slightly.
It was different. Now that they saw Xu Mochen again, their inner feelings were different.
This emperor was able to cultivate immortality and killed many of their officials.
What's more, he was able to suppress the two saints yesterday.
The courtiers claimed that they did not have such ability.
Therefore, the emperor is more powerful than them, and they need to accept this fact again.
Xu Mochen's face didn't look good either. He was very tired from the battle last night.
He is not a perpetual motion machine and needs to adjust and cultivate.
But after such a big thing happened, it would be unjustifiable not to hold a court meeting.
"Let's talk about it," Xu Mochen's eyes swept over everyone. The ministers he saw couldn't help but flinch slightly, "Things have already happened. You can't hide your illness and avoid treatment."
The prime minister's hands trembled, and he tried to control his expression. As the head of a hundred officials, he needed to set an example: "Your Majesty, this kind of thing happened in the Imperial College. The crimes of the old minister and others are unpardonable. Please forgive me."
"Condemn?" Xu Mochen sneered, "If you convict again, my court will be empty."
This is true. Yesterday, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel were involved, and several ministers submitted memorials overnight. Now everyone has taken the initiative to go to Dali Temple to wait for treatment.
"Your Majesty," Li Heng (human race), the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, came out, "the affairs of the Imperial College have also been heard by the ministers and others.
The imperial examination is the foundation of Daqian's literary education. Now that something like this has happened, Wei Chen thinks that all the courtiers are to blame.
The Ministry of War failed to control the capital well, which led to the incorporation of treacherous people, and this happened.
I implore your majesty to investigate thoroughly. "
Human officials used to just eat and drink, and occasionally shout slogans with empty ideals.
After all, you are facing an immortal cultivator, and he might die with just one slap.
You don’t even need to film it, just make a curse or something, and it will end in vain.
I definitely don’t dare to jump out and say what the immortal cultivators are like.
But things are different now. The emperor can also cultivate immortality, and he still stands on the side of the human race, so they need to work together and unite.
So when Li Heng opened his mouth, he pointed directly at the Ministry of War, which had nothing to do with it.
The person responsible for public security in the capital is the Wucheng Military and Horse Division, which is directly under the emperor's control.
But it is also connected with the Ministry of War, so it is not too much for Li Heng to say this forcefully.
Immortal cultivators and courtiers were disgusted by what they heard. They never expected that one day they would be pointed at and scolded by human officials.
But what can they say?
Such a result was not caused by their own immortal cultivators and had nothing to do with the human race.
If Da Qian loses his literary skills, the country will be ruined and history will go backwards.
It even caused the destruction of the human race and directly caused chaos in the entire world of immortal cultivators.
That's a felony!
The Minister of War and the Minister of War had no choice but to come out to apologize.
"Okay, okay," Xu Mochen frowned, "I just said that the key to the problem now is not punishment.
Of course, I also remember your responsibilities.
After I retired from the imperial court, I wrote a letter of apology, so I just kept it and did not publish it. "
This is equivalent to one more handle in the emperor's hands.
But this treatment was the lightest, and everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't be overbearing when speaking to officials." Xu Mochen never showed disdain towards his own people, "This is a court, and it's not like everyone is pushing against the wall. Enough is enough."
Xu Mochen was sensible. No matter how good the human officials were, they were still made of clay. If they really angered the immortal cultivators, there would be no good consequences.
The human officials who can stand here now are all trained by him with all his efforts. He will not be put in danger easily.
The emperor said this, and the human officials gave up.
That's true, but the Prime Minister and others don't have a solution.
Without him, all the students admitted this time would have been wiped out in one fell swoop. Even the two sages who were originally in the Imperial College and nearly a thousand disciples would have suffered.
In addition, not long ago, the scholars of the gentry were also extracted from the literary spirit. It can be said that the scholars of Daqian were all in vain.
Not to mention the establishment of additional government agencies and officials.
Not even to replenish their court.
Xu Mochen waited for a long time, and what he found was silence.
If he had nothing to say, he said: "I mean, things still need to be done.
In a while, I plan to open an enke.
The so-called Enke means to give students who did not perform well in the last imperial examination another chance.
I thought about it carefully and realized that Enke is open for both small and large courses. It would be better to have one more opportunity and try to participate as much as possible.
I just want to know if these students can still..."
The answer is no.
Immortal cultivators study to improve their cultivation. They are different from human students. Now that they have lost their cultivation, it means they have to practice again.
The key is that Daqian's culture has changed now. No matter how hard they practice, they don't know if they can adapt.
If you don't have a chance to be connected with the literary world, you won't have the opportunity to gain immortality and you won't be able to make progress.
Human students are different. Their literary spirit has been extracted. If they go home and study hard for a few years, they can still recover slowly.
So there are pros and cons to everything.
The Prime Minister was miserable: "Thank you for your kindness, but their words...I'm afraid I can never..."
"That's not what I meant," Xu Mochen pondered and stood up, "After all, students have learned knowledge and are literate and so on.
I am asking if you are willing to take the Enke exam normally. "
The words were not stated clearly, but the Prime Minister understood.
Xu Mochen meant to ask these students if they were willing to give up the immortal way and become mortals again.
As a mortal, take the real exam and be admitted into the official career.
"This..." The prime minister's brain was stuck.
"Some of you are role models for them, you can ask them," Xu Mochen walked down the steps step by step, "I don't mind their past. As long as they are willing, the door of the court can still be opened for them.
However, what I have always emphasized is the difference between them.
So they need to think carefully and give me an answer.
As for Enko, no matter what their answer is, I will hold it as scheduled. "
Everyone was stunned. The emperor was openly wooing immortal cultivators.
Let them give up the road to becoming immortals and start from the starting point of mortals.
