The court has been stopped for two months, but the two states and three departments controlled by the imperial court are still operating normally, and a large number of officials have not brought imaginary difficulties to the imperial court, which makes many officials in the court very frightened, does this mean that in fact, they are here every day to discuss national affairs is a bit redundant, because even without them, the whole country has not become chaotic because of this, and it can still run very well.
I don't know when the change of mentality began, at the beginning, they hoped that in this way, the Son of Heaven would recognize the importance of scholars, and it was impossible for the imperial court to leave scholars, however, the facts were beyond their expectations, this time, Liu Xie did not compromise, and spent two months with them.
The most important thing is that for these two months, the imperial court did not stop functioning because of their departure, which caused panic among everyone.
It seems that big families such as Yang Biao and Sima Fang are good to say, even if they don't have their identity in the court, Yang Biao and Sima Fang are still famous people in the world, and their families are still strong, but not every family has the ability to stand on their own roots like the Yang family and Sima family.
Zhao Huai committed suicide on Yang Biao's birthday banquet, and then the four heads of the family took the blame in front of the palace gate, which seemed to be sending a signal to the scholars that the imperial power was in the ascendant Yes, it is the imperial power that is in full swing.
Although since Liu Xie took power, the imperial power has been stabilizing step by step, but this time, after the head-on conflict between the imperial power and the scholar class, at least in Guanzhong, the imperial power has the upper hand, and a large number of resignations and petitions of the scholar class have not been able to have much impact on the imperial power, but the scholar class has suffered a lot of losses.
Now, Liu Xie finally reopened the court, early in the morning, before dawn, there is still an hour before the early dynasty, the officials of the court can't wait to gather in the Weiyang Palace, they are eager to know Liu Xie's attitude.
As for the scholars who had gathered outside the palace before, they had long since dispersed, and only some unrelenting Yingchuan and Nanyang scholars were still wandering around.
"The rules are the rules, and the time of the last dynasty is also the rules, it is the rules, they have to abide by them, they are willing to wait, then let them wait" was woken up by Yuxiu in his sleep, Liu Xie was not angry, but said lightly: "You are my maidservant, remember, in the future, unless the military aircraft can make an exception, nothing can break the rules." ” "Huh" Yuxiu agreed in a little panic and left.
"Your Majesty, does it really matter" Qiao Ying shrunk into the quilt and looked at Liu Xie worriedly.
"I didn't ask them to come early, and I can't mess with the rules of the court because of this, otherwise this rule is set, what's the use" Liu Xie patted Qiao Ying's head, there is still an hour before the time of the early dynasty, these civil and military officials are really energetic.
"Sleep a little longer, and don't worry about these things."
Looking at Qiao Ying's little head outside the quilt, Liu Xie laughed, and in Qiao Ying's exclamation, he put his hand into the quilt and grabbed it fiercely, laughing and beckoning Yuxiu and Wan'er to change their clothes, although there is still an hour in the early dynasty, it is time to get up and prepare.
Dressing, washing, and then having breakfast with the three wives, when the sun gradually rose, Liu Xiecai took Wei Zhong and arrived at Weiyang Palace on time.
"You Aiqing don't need to be polite."
Liu Xie waved his hand, his gaze swept over Baiguan, and said with a smile: "During this time, a lot of things have happened, so much so that the court meeting has been put on hold for two months. ” "I am young, some truths are not as good as your families, but I also know that one thing, if it is beneficial to the people of the world, it is a good thing, yes, the opening of the bookstore will indeed shake the interests of the scholar class, but I also hope that more people can be educated by the sages, so that more people who have the heart to learn, the road to study can be less bumpy, I really don't understand, what is wrong with this" Liu Xie looked at the courtiers and said indifferently.
Yang Biao opened his mouth, but when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly felt pale and powerless, if it was two months ago, he could pat his chest and refute Liu Xie's point of view with confidence, but time has changed, two months later, when this matter was officially put in the court, he suddenly found that he had prepared the rhetoric for two months before, but at this moment it became pale and weak.
It's not that the truth has changed, it's that the people have changed.
Two months ago, Yang Biao said that above this court, there would be a large number of courtiers to reconsider, but now, there are still a few people who will support him "You say that scholars are the foundation of the world, and I used to think so."
His eyes swept over Yang Biao, Liu Xie sighed, shook his head and said: "But before, when I was fighting in Nanyang, I suddenly thought of something, saying that scholars are the foundation of the world, but the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family, logically speaking, are the largest family in the world, and should also be the foundation of me, but why, Yuan Shao split the north of the earth, and violated the imperial decree, Yuan Shu even openly insulted and killed the imperial court envoys, and even privately hid the jade seal of the country, the root of me, but it is harming my country, how to understand" "Ladies and gentlemen, these Chang'an scholars these days, they all want me to give them an explanation, but now, I also want to ask your ministers for an explanation, my roots, where is it now" Liu Xie swept his gaze to the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, with an indescribable sonorous power in his voice.
"I want to rely on you, but I also want to divide the territory on top of my Han River, I set up a bookstore, promote knowledge, and I also want to find a minister who can share my worries among the people of the world, why is it wrong to be surrounded by my palace and rank as a loyal minister, but have you ever thought about where my face is, and where is my Han face?"
Yang Biao lowered his head silently, facing Liu Xie's question, he couldn't answer, and he didn't know how to answer.
"What I want is a minister who can share my worries, not a minister who can share my worries, let me tell you that if you want me to share your worries, I will ask you to share my worries first, and then I will have the energy to share your worries, otherwise, I can only focus on my Han country first."
"Your Majesty is angry."
Sima Fang sighed, walked out from behind Yang Biao, bowed down and said: "What Your Majesty said is very true, but before, because of some reasons, many officials caused it, now that the matter has subsided, whether to recall those officials so as not to mess up our court." ” There is no way, those officials who are Zhishi, but few are willing, and even many people have good political performance, just waiting for the next year's meritorious service, and may even be promoted, now whether it is satisfactory or not, but this matter has come to an end, at this moment, these officials, naturally have to find a chance for them to return to their careers, otherwise, as the initiators of this matter, the Yang family, the Sima family, and the Ding family have to be hated by these people.
"Hah" When Liu Xie heard this, he shook his head a little funny: "Do you think that Aiqing's official position in this court is so cheap, the officials of this court, you can do it if you want to, and if you don't want to do it, you can shake it off and finally beg them to come back?"
"This" Sima Fang, Ding Chong, Yang Biao and others sank in their hearts, Yang Biao sighed, bowed down and said: "It's just that many of these people who are quite talented will give up and return to others in the future, it's a pity, and I hope Your Majesty will be gracious, so that these ministers with social interests can have another chance to serve the imperial court." ” "Before that, what should the officials who replaced these people do, they have done a good job during this time, how should I arrange them" Liu Xie glanced at Yang Biao with a smile and asked with a smile.
"This" Yang Biao thought for a while and said: "Weichen has a note, since it is for the country to select materials, when talent first, these officials and people who are willing to return to their careers can be recruited, and the best ones can be hired. ” Although I don't want to, but this is also a way to do it, as Liu Xie said, this group of newly appointed officials, this period of time has not made a big mistake, and they have been dismissed for no reason, how can they feel good in their hearts and the court is not easy to explain to these people.
"That's a good idea."
Liu Xie nodded, and then shook his head: "But since it is a selection of materials, of course, we must choose the best of the best, I heard that during this time, a large number of wise men have entered Chang'an, so I will take this opportunity to make the next recruitment order, anyone who is willing to serve my court can participate in this selection, as for how to select materials, I will draw up a charter later." ” "Buzz" Yang Biao looked at Liu Xie, only to feel that his mind was blank, and he was going around, it turned out that the true intention of the Son of Heaven was here Sima Fang, Ding Chong and others were also shocked on their faces, today Liu Xie changed his past gentleness, and as soon as he went to court, he was angry, originally, they thought that Liu Xie was venting for the humiliation he had suffered in the past two months, but who knew the real purpose in the end, but it was here.
Not only did they think of it, there were few stupid people in the Manchu Dynasty, and soon they also thought that Liu Xie's real purpose was in this matter, for a while, they all felt bitter in their mouths, and those officials who were Zhishi were inextricably linked to them, that is, they were not clansmen, but they were invited by them to become Zhishi, and now they have to go through many selections to re-establish their careers, and in the end, how many people with good prospects will be eliminated It is not known now, but after this incident, they are equivalent to committing public anger.
There is no position to refute, just like Liu Xie said, the official position of the imperial court, you want it, if you don't want it, you don't want it, where does such a good thing come from in the world, and where does the face of the court go It would have been fine if Liu Xie had been soft before, but now the situation is that the family has to bow to Liu Xie, so that those scholars who are attached to the family have become victims in this competition between the imperial power and the family, but these people will not complain about anyone The officials who think about these things clearly are like eating yellow lotus, and they can't say what they are suffering.
"If you have no opinions, then this matter will be decided, and I will ask Shangshu Mansion to issue a recruitment order later, and the time will be set in January."
Liu Xie looked at the ministers and said.
Recruitment, from the time of the Chang'an competition, Liu Xie has already wanted to do this, but unfortunately, all along, there has been no suitable excuse and opportunity, but now, thanks to the turmoil of these families during this time, there are excuses and opportunities, and now the scholars gathered in Chang'an, whether they are famous or cold, there are a large number of them. t1706231537:
