Zhao Shan also observed the changes in the expressions of the scholars present.
Wu Jingsheng, Xue Cong, Zhou Qin and others all changed their expressions, more or less affected, and some even turned around and vomited. Only Yan Zhuo's expression did not change at all, and there was no change in his expression at all.
Such a big heart!
So brave!
Zhao Shan appreciated in his heart that he was worthy of being Yan Xuanqing's son.
Not to mention his talent and learning, his calm courage and calm posture alone gave him the bearing of a general.
Zhao Shan did not speak immediately, letting these scholars digest the scene just now and let them take a moment.
After a long while, Zhao Shancai said: "Many of you should know the people on the stage, even brothers from the same clan, and maybe even brothers, uncles and nephews."
"But these people, relying on their family origins and their family's power, trample on the law and commit all kinds of evil and deserve to be killed."
"Dagan, no one is above the law."
"The emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people."
"If members of a big family break the law, they will also be killed."
"The vast majority of you are from big families, and you will be in charge of the government in the future, and you will be the herdsmen of Heaven. If you act arbitrarily, the national law will not tolerate it, and the court will not tolerate it."
"I hope you will remember that being an official is not for enjoyment, but for the purpose of displaying one's ambitions and being able to govern the country and bring peace to the world."
Zhao Shan's voice gradually became louder and he said, "I hope you will remember today's scene and remember it forever. Because I don't want to see the executioner kill you in person in the future."
Yu Song said loudly: "Your Majesty has given you your sincere instructions, and we will keep them in mind."
Yan Zhuo, Wu Jingsheng and others shouted.
Everyone's expressions were shocked.
The killing scene just now deeply touched everyone.
No one expected that just after being selected, they would see the scene of the children of various families being killed. This was not a person being beheaded, but heads rolling to the ground, and even pairs of eyes widening after death. Come here and you will never forget it.
After Zhao Shan gave a special lecture, he looked at the countless people gathered around him and gave a separate lecture, informing the people of the court's policy and declaring that there would never be any more violations of law and discipline by big families in Yangzhou.
If there are only empty words, the people will not believe it at all.
The problem is that there is evidence of killing.
People from various families were killed, and when the people saw the scene of heads rolling in and saw real swords, real guns, and real actions, they were naturally willing to believe it.
After Zhao Shanxun finished speaking, he led the people back to Prince Wu's Mansion. In addition to Yan Zhuo, forty-seven people including Wu Jingsheng, Xue Cong and Zhou Qin were taken away by Yu Song to be assigned official positions, and they had to be trained before they could be assigned to local posts.
There were only two people in the study, Zhao Shan and Yan Zhuo.
Zhao Shan's eyes fell on Yan Zhuo and he said: "Yan Zhuo, I read your test paper and it is very good. You are ranked first. I plan to keep you by my side and take you back to Luoyang to take up a post. Do you want to How about the next one?"
Yan Zhuo didn't show any emotion. He paused for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty appreciates it. I am willing."
Zhao Shandao: "In that case, stay with me and serve as a doctor."
"I accept your order!"
Yan Zhuo replied neither humble nor arrogantly.
Zhao Shan arranged for someone to call Wei Wan and asked Yan Zhuo to temporarily work with Wei Wan to get used to the rhythm around him and get used to the current life. After Wei Wan took Yan Zhuo away, Zhao Shan arranged for someone to call Qi Yuanjing back.
Qi Yuanjing is very busy these days.
The main purpose is to dispatch troops and generals to raid some areas that have not yet surrendered.
Qi Yuanjing entered the study, saw Zhao Shanhou, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, Qi Yuanjing, pays homage to you."
Zhao Shan nodded slightly and asked, "How is the recent local encirclement and suppression going?"
Qi Yuanjing replied: "Reporting to your Majesty, the troops sent out have received news that the situation of exterminating thieves in various places is going smoothly. In two months at most, the chaos in various places in Yangzhou can be solved and the chaos can be completely brought to order."
Zhao Shan nodded and said: "Yangzhou has been pacified. I plan to keep you in Yangzhou as the Zhendong General and transfer you from Jingzhou to Yangzhou. Are you willing?"
Qi Yuanjing hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty has solved the war in Yangzhou, but there are still Shuzhong, Yuzhou and other places in the country that have not been pacified. Next, your Majesty will definitely take action against Shuzhong, or Yuzhou, Yanzhou and other places. Can you How about letting the general follow him to conquer the place?"
Zhao Shan did not answer directly, but asked with a smile: "Yuan Jing, don't you want to go on an expedition to Japan?"
"Of course I do!"
Qi Yuanjing answered without hesitation, his eyes shining with blazing light.
Extremely excited.
Expedition to Japan was his long-cherished wish and lifelong pursuit.
In the past, the Japanese Japanese kingdom invaded the border and harassed the people at any time, making life difficult for the people along the Yangzhou coast, and countless families were destroyed.
He wants to wash away all shame.
He will fight tooth for tooth and blood for blood.
Zhao Shan nodded and said: "Since you have the ambition to expedition to Japan, you should stay in Yangzhou, because this is the bridgehead for attacking Japan. In the future, we will send troops from Yangzhou to attack Japan."
Qi Yuanjing asked: "When will your Majesty attack Japan?"
Zhao Shan explained: "When the domestic war is over, we will send troops to attack the Japanese country. I have been recommended by Yan Xuanqing. There is a shipbuilding master named Xu Ziyuan who is about to come to Wu County from Fuchun County. By then he will be responsible for shipbuilding. You Responsible for military training. When I resolve the internal troubles, you will serve as my vanguard and march with me to the Japanese country. Are you willing?"
"Yes, I am willing!"
Qi Yuanjing was willing to stay this time.
To conquer the Japanese country, not only the military strength is important, but also enough warships are needed.
If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. This is the most fundamental principle.
After Zhao Shan persuaded Qi Yuanjing, he waved his hand and said: "Now that we understand the stakes, let's train our troops well in Wu County. I will ask Fang Weihu to choose one of the generals to guard Jingzhou. Yangzhou is now stable, and Jingzhou is connected to Yangzhou. , Guanzhong, there is no longer any crisis."
"I accept your order!"
Qi Yuanjing responded with clasped fists.
Zhao Shan comforted Qi Yuanjing, arranged the army affairs, and handed over the government affairs to Yu Song, and he felt relaxed for the time being. With nothing to do, he headed towards Yu Qinghuan's yard again.
