The two of them were furious!
Sun Chuanting said resolutely: "This matter must not happen! If the empress cannot supervise the country, the new government of the Marquis and the empress will definitely destroy the government and people! The Marquis's hard work will be in vain, and this must not happen! Hou Ye! Master, when I go to Shanxi this time, even if I have to bear a bad reputation, I will use all my heart and soul to unseat the king!"
Fang Kongzhao also said: "Brother Boya is right! The Ming Dynasty finally produced a virtuous empress like the empress and a virtuous minister like the Marquis. Our Ming Dynasty has just started to improve under the governance of the two of them. We will never allow them to appear again." Despite the twists and turns, Brother Boya lets go and does it! This is a major event for the country and the people. As for reputation, history is free to judge!"
Huang Xiao stood up and saluted Sun Chuanting and the others.
"Thank you so much, Huang Xiao, for your trust and care, your empress and I!"
The two of them quickly returned the favor.
Huang Xiaodao: "I will ask the empress to make an appointment. Brother Boya will take over all military and political power in Shanxi and Xuanfu! Brother Boya continues to act according to Liu Cheng's method in Zhangjiakou. He has recruited more than 10,000 recruits there. I am the one who will give him the appointment." You are confident that the first shot of the new policy will start from Datong, where the king is! With the righteousness of the court in hand and the support of millions of people, I think Brother Boya will be able to do this well!"
Sun Chuanting was shocked!
Take charge of all military and political affairs in Shanxi and Xuanfu!
What power this is!
What a heavy responsibility and trust!
"You will definitely live up to the great trust of your Majesty and the Marquis!"
Huang Xiao nodded and said: "Brother Bai Ya, General Cao is a rare general. I will ask General Cao to follow you to Shanxi. If you unite sincerely, we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!"
Sun Chuanting said with a smile: "If you can be personally praised by your husband, you must be a pillar of the country!"
Cao Wenzhao stood up and thanked him.
Huang Xiao gave one piece of information each to Sun Chuanting and Fang Kongzhao.
"Okay! Very good! Read this information carefully and act accordingly in the future."
"Tomorrow, I will ask Zuo Yushi to propose holding a written examination. My wife and I will personally invigilate the examination. I hope you can stand out. This appointment is justified and can also serve as a demonstration. I wonder if you two are confident enough to win the first place!"
Sun Chuanting laughed and said confidently: "Sir, don't worry, if you can't pass this, we will have no shame!"
Fang Kongzhao also smiled and said: "Those like us who were specially recruited to the capital by the empress have all studied hard day and night. In addition, we have visited and studied in various places in Dahuang Village. We understand the knowledge of the training class much more thoroughly. We are definitely better than the court officials!"
Huang Xiao smiled and said: "That's good."
"In Shanxi, the matter of replacing the king is relatively more difficult. General Cao, unlike the border raids, the enemy is no longer the ferocious Jiannu, but some corrupt officials, local tyrants and evil gentry, who are against the common people. , they are all targets you need to eliminate. You take all the wounded from last time and go to Shanxi together, and Bianjiao will stay here to continue to recover and study."
Cao Wenzhao said: "Mojiang has been in Dahuang Village for more than ten days. It is really eye-opening. I also know a lot about the new policies of the Marquis. Don't worry, Mr. Hou, Mojiang knows how to act!"
Huang Xiao nodded: "In that case, let's all go. I still have guests to see, so I won't stay any longer."
The three of them all stood up and saluted, and Huang Xiao saw them off.
Not long after seeing them off.
Cui Pinhua came over.
After Huang Xiao met with him again for a face-to-face meeting, Cui Pinhua went there excitedly.
Huang Xiao took out a paper and asked someone to send it to the printing factory. After it was printed, it was sent back.
…
Early next morning.
Huang Xiao still went to Jiaotai Hall first, and then met Zhang Yan.
He talked about last night's arrangements and also talked about the extra test.
Zhang Yan nodded: "You worked so late last night. There is no need to come over and tell me about these things in the future."
Huang Xiao smiled and said, "That's not possible. If I take matters into my own hands, wouldn't it mean that I am not paying attention to the Queen? That would really make me a treacherous minister. Besides, I am happy to be able to see the Queen more often."
Zhang Yan looked at Huang Xiao helplessly and sighed secretly in her heart, yes, we can still see each other more now, but when His Majesty comes back in the future, it will be difficult and impossible to see him more.
Huang Xiao said: "Madam, the new special plane has been assembled. I got it back the day before yesterday, and it is more advanced than the previous special plane! When are we going to show it off again?"
Zhang Yan looked at Huang Xiao with a smile, "What does it mean to show off?"
Huang Xiao said: "Last time the empress went to war in person, many ministers and people did not have time to see her. What a pity. Now that we have a new plane, we have to fly several times. It is best to fly everywhere." A trip, this is called inspection work, it can also have a publicity effect, and it can also scare some young people!"
Zhang Yan nodded slightly.
"What you said makes sense. You can figure it out. You are an expert anyway."
Huang Xiao chuckled and said, "I obey!"
The new Fire Phoenix was completed after the renovation and upgrade the day before yesterday. Huang Xiao took it back and handed it over to Song Yingxing's organization to assemble it.
Today, in the morning, Zuo Guangdou proposed to take a temporary palace examination after studying government affairs for half a month.
Zhang Yan was right immediately.
Huang Xiao and Zuo Guangdou were the examiners.
Exam results will be out soon.
Sun Chuanting and Fang Kongzhao did well and tied for first place.
The two of them had been studying hard, and they knew in advance that there would be an exam today, so they made a surprise review last night, and they succeeded in one fell swoop today.
The paper adopts a 100-point system, with 60 points being considered a passing grade and 90 points being considered excellent.
Among them, Sun Chuanting received perfect marks for his square hole.
Lu Xiangsheng scored 99 points, Li Banghua and others all exceeded 90. The most surprising one, Yang Lian, actually scored a high score of 95 points.
Most of Gao Panlong, Zhang Ruitu, Xue Zhen and others barely passed.
Among them, Liu Mao was directly at the bottom at 46.
Huang Xiao announced the scores on the spot!
Those who get high scores are naturally happy.
Pass's face was flat.
Liu Mao was severely scolded by Zhang Yan and had one month's salary deducted.
"From this exam, I can see how much the ministers support and agree with me and Marquis Zhongyi's new policies. The remaining study time is only half a month. The passing mark for the final exam is eighty percent. , if you fail to achieve it, you will be fired or demoted, and the score will be published in the Ming Dynasty Daily, which will be published all over the world!"
All the ministers were shocked. The Queen's move was so vicious!
It doesn't matter if you lose your job or be demoted. If the results are announced, do you still want this face?
The officials clamored.
Zhang Yan said angrily: "You all claim to be scholars. You are all talented. You can't even get good results in these simple principles of being an official and a human being. I am really ashamed of you."
The ministers were speechless.
Zhang Yan said: "Sun Chuanting, Fang Kongzhao, and Lu Xiangsheng achieved good results in this exam. For those who study hard and are willing to contribute to the Ming Dynasty's New Deal, I will naturally reward them."
"Draw up the decree!"
"Remove Liu Ping from the post of Governor of Tianjin and return to Beijing for another appointment. Instead, Fang Kongzhao, who has passed the examination with excellent results, will succeed as Governor of Tianjin!"
"Remove Liu Cheng from the post of Governor of the Xuanfu and return to Beijing to find another appointment. Instead, Lu Xiangsheng, who has excelled in the examination, will succeed as the Governor of the Xuanfu!"
"Order, Sun Chuanting leaves Shanxi and takes up the post of Governor of Shanxi, presiding over all new policies in Shanxi!"
"Liaodong garrison Cao Wenzhao has made a great contribution to the rescue. I order him to be the deputy governor of Shanxi and assist Sun Chuanting in governing!"
