Liangzhou Prefecture.
Chen Ping seems to have aged more than ten years recently, his eyes are sunken and he is depressed.
He was in a terrible mood.
Ever since that imperial edict came to Liangzhou, his nightmare began.
The imperial examination pilot program will be launched in Liangzhou?
Holy lord, what does this mean? This is definitely a heart-breaking move for Chen Ping! Who in the world doesn’t know that Liu Zhizhou introduced this imperial examination?
In other words, this is the credit of the Liu family and his son!
The ones who made the Hanlin Academy’s academicians remonstrate, the people who made the world’s literati angry, and the people who stared at countless people were the Liu family and his son!
Are you going to start a pilot project in Liangzhou?
Where does this put Chen Ping?
He Liu Dahao is just the chief official of Yin and Yang! But let him preside over the entire imperial examination in Liangzhou?
This operation is really thought-provoking.
Thirty prefectures and counties in Liangzhou also began to cry out for literati.
Imperial examination!
We want the imperial examination!
In every era, the privileged class is a minority after all. The power of those poor students in Liangzhou who finally saw hope began to ferment with astonishing momentum.
every day.
At the gate of Liangzhou Mansion, a large number of literati gathered to ask Liangzhou Mansion when they would start preparing for the imperial examination?
These people can't wait to board the imperial examination ship and sail away into the wind!
"Are you crazy? Are you all crazy? Are you going to rebel?"
Chen Ping was furious and trembling all over.
Early in the morning, various literati began to arrive at the door. They didn't do much, they just sat at the door of Liangzhou Mansion, and then they either read the books of ancient sages or sang poems there. You said they rebelled, but they didn't! But you said no, how annoying it is!
Chen Ping hasn't slept well for a month.
really.
Since ancient times, this scholar has never used a knife to kill people!
A group of subordinates were nearby, also looking at each other.
"Sir...this imperial examination is for the Holy Emperor after all..."
"Sir, why don't we show off first and shut the mouths of these literati, and then..."
Chen Ping became angry when he slapped the case, and shouted coldly: "Fart!"
"Can the entrance to the imperial examination be opened?"
"Can it be opened?"
"It's open, you bunch of losers, what are you going to eat?"
Everyone was as silent as cicadas, and their expressions were bitter.
This is true.
The imperial examination is definitely not as simple as one sentence. There are too many interests involved! If the imperial examination is really held in Liangzhou, the first ones to bear the brunt are the officials currently serving in Liangzhou Prefecture... They are representatives of various prominent families and interest groups in Liangzhou.
This is really going to change the dynasty...
Where will they end up?
"Sir...what about us?"
A group of people suddenly ran out of ideas.
Chen Ping sneered and said: "The Liu family and his son deliberately put me, Liangzhou, on the fire! Do you really think that because the Holy One is spoiling them, there is nothing I can do about it?"
"Liu Chang!"
"Sir, the little one is here."
Liu Chang came running like crazy.
Chen Ping asked: "Is Ma Yong still in Yinzhou?"
Liu Chang chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Sir. Sir Ma, we have already dealt with it. Those charges are enough for the Liu family and his son to drink a pot!"
"good!"
A light flashed in Chen Ping's eyes.
There are many things involved in the imperial examination. He had been standing still and had received orders from the prince. Do you really think that with an imperial edict from the Holy One, the imperial examination can truly begin?
dream!
Both the aristocracy and the scholar-bureaucrat class resisted the imperial examination. They are the best at doing things both yang and yin yin.
The prince's meaning is very clear.
drag!
Drag him to death!
At this time, who would care about the relationship between father and son?
The prince needs to use this method to win over all the forces that can be won over. Therefore, his statement is very important.
…
Look at Jinghua Palace again.
Xie Tianyao had just taken two "elixirs" and felt quite refreshed and ecstatic.
In the Yangxin Hall, green smoke curled up, and in front of him was still the familiar chessboard.
Manager Zhou was waiting at the side.
In the darkness, that black shadow was still standing there.
Xie Tianyao picked up a chess piece and laughed loudly: "Grand Canal, Grand Canal, this Liu Zhizhou is becoming more and more interested in me... Hey, if I had met him twenty years ago, how would the world be like this?"
Manager Zhou quickly smiled and said: "Your Majesty, there is an elixir, you will always be strong!"
Xie Tianyao laughed at himself and shook his head: "You did not disappoint me... This Liu Zhizhou is indeed a useful weapon."
Manager Zhou shut up immediately.
This was what the old emperor said to the secret guard.
The secret guard nodded.
Xie Tianyao sighed: "What a pity, what a pity...Why can't Liu Zhizhou be my son? Why? No matter how sharp the sword is, it will eventually break on the battlefield..."
"The sharper it is, the easier it is to break, isn't it?"
He chuckled.
Manager Zhou and the secret guard were silent at the same time.
They all know what Xie Tianyao means...Liu Zheng is now a sword of the old emperor! A weapon used to clean up the old and decadent forces in the country! If we talk about before, when Liu Zheng first came out of his career, Xie Tianyao did not take him seriously. But now... as Liu Zheng grows up, he can already play games with the old emperor on the chessboard.
Xie Tianyao felt that this was a man of wisdom!
However……
When everyone felt that the Holy Emperor should be on guard against Liu Zheng's sudden appearance during this period to clear the way for his son, he did not do so!
He did the opposite and used Liu Zheng as a sword!
He plans to focus all the glory and halo in the world on Liu Zheng, making him infinitely famous, giving him power and making him the world's attention!
Praise!
After the sharp weapons are used up, you can kill them!
Xie Tianyao is indeed the originator of tricks.
At this time, what is the use of killing Liu Zheng? Just like the King of Wei, he is also the first vassal king in the country... Even if the King of Wei dies, the King of Shu may stand up again. If the King of Shu is gone, the King of Yue, the King of Wu, the King of Song...
Kill someone.
It cannot change the situation of Long Yan Dynasty.
He wants to use this person to kill all the others!
This is the true art of the emperor!
Learning to forge swords, use swords, hide swords, and discard swords are skills that a talented and strategic emperor should master.
For example, Shang Yang back then, wasn't that the case?
Shang Yang brought reforms to the Qin State and strengthened the Qin State, but in the end, he had to die.
That's a dead end.
A certain death situation.
He had no reason to live. Although Qin Xiaogong left many escape paths for him before his death. But he still had to die. Because he is Qin Xiaogong's sword!
A murder weapon!
Unless he dies, it will be difficult for Qin to be stable.
But what happens after he dies?
King Qin Huiwen did not abolish the reform and still continued the iron-blooded rule of law from the Shang Yang period. Because he knew it was a good thing. However, in order to appease the domestic nobles and literati, the reform can be kept, but Shang Yang must be killed!
This is also the art of the emperor.
Today's Longyan Dynasty.
In fact, it was almost the same as the Qin State at that time.
The aristocratic class, the scholar-bureaucrat class, controls everything, and if they want to get rid of them, Xie Tianyao needs someone like Liu Zheng...
What happens after you use it?
Kill?
That's inevitable.
Who makes him stand out?
There is no need for the emperor to take action, when the time comes, the princes of the world will also take action!
The art of the emperor.
That's it.
Thinking of the kid who actually started playing games with him, Xie Tianyao laughed and said, "It's getting more and more interesting. I'm really looking forward to the day when he comes to Beijing."
…
On the road.
Another endless stretch of desert Gobi.
But when he thought that the Grand Canal could start from here, Liu Zheng felt extremely ambitious.
Even the Sui Dynasty didn't have the courage to dig the Grand Canal out of the desert, right?
Qingyang Shuo laughed and said: "Sir, the situation in Liangzhou has become clear with the emperor's decree. Liangzhou's literati will be our greatest help. But Chen Ping will definitely burn the boat, so please be careful."
Liu Zheng smiled and nodded: "Sir, are you referring to Zheng Yuxing?"
Qingyang Shuo said: "Yes, although General Zheng has a good impression of the young master, after all, he is the third prince's son. Once the imperial examination comes out, it is equivalent to the holy general and the young master, and he is in opposition to the world. The prince and the third prince also I definitely don’t want to promote the imperial examination. Haha, there are really few people who can rival this holy sage for playing tricks of the mind!”
Liu Zheng also took a deep breath.
If Chen Pingzhen just stays and goes against Liu Zheng.
Liangzhou's army is 300,000, and it is difficult for him to deal with it.
What's more...
Liangzhou is my home.
Liu Zheng did not want to see this land devastated.
Outwit!
Must outsmart!
Thinking of this, he smiled slightly.
I wonder if Zheng Yueru has dealt with that Ma Yong?
