Outside the south gate of Chang'an City, Li Chengqian came out to see off Li Su, the king of Shu, and the immigration matter was settled, and Li Su hurriedly went back to preside over the road construction.Li Chengqian looked at the black and thin Li Su and said with some distress: "Little Liu, although you are ambitious, you must also pay attention to your body, you are not yet twenty years old, when you are growing your body, you are so skinny all day long, you can't do it after a long time."
Some things don't have to be done yourself, and it's much faster to direct them than if you were to do it yourself. ”Li Su nodded heavily and said movingly: "Thank you for your concern, and the younger brother will remember the teachings." ”"You and my brother, why be polite?
By the way, why didn't the senior brothers from the medical center come?
Didn't you tell them?
”Li Chengqian looked around.Li Su smiled and said: "I have already gone to the hospital to say goodbye to everyone, and they all said that they would come to see me off, but the brothers and sisters are so busy, I persuaded them, I didn't know that the eldest brother was coming, and I knew that you didn't have to send me, you are the same as your brother-in-law, you are a busy person." ”Li Chengqian patted Li Su's shoulder and encouraged: "You don't know when our brothers will see each other again, how can I not come?"
When I arrived in Shuzhong, if there was any difficulty, give me a letter, and my eldest brother will definitely help in Chang'an.In addition, if you have time, you go to the southwest Tubo Road to see your fourth brother, he was wronged to pass, I know this very well, leaving him alone to suffer in the southwest, we are very worried. ”"Well, okay, I'll definitely take the time to visit the fourth brother.Now that the eldest brother has spoken, the younger brother really has something to ask the eldest brother for help. ”Li Su said.Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, and then said with a hearty smile: "That's right, I don't have to beat around the bush with my eldest brother, let's say, do you have a crush on which girl?"
”Li Su hurriedly waved his hand: "Ahem, it has nothing to do with the girl, at my age, it's not yet time to marry a daughter-in-law."
This time, I left 200,000 Zhuanglaohu people to be responsible for the road construction project on the northern line, and they dragged a total of 500,000 people with their families, and Chu Suiliang was the general person in charge.In terms of rations and wages, my brother-in-law asked the Chamber of Commerce to take care of it, although there is still the seventh uncle to help supervise and take care of it, but I am afraid that there are still people in Chang'an City who deliberately make stumbling blocks, so please eldest brother, you help pay attention, if someone is in trouble" Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Li Chengqian promised and said: "No problem, I will send a special person from the East Palace to help, report the situation at any time, and if there is any trouble, the eldest brother will smooth it out for you." ”"That little brother thanked the big brother first!"
He has been sending Li Su out of Chang'an for ten miles, and Li Chengqian drove his horse back to the city, and he was thinking about one thing in his heart along the way, and now that all parties are on the right track, can the matter of improving the imperial examination be brought up?
This time, Li Er nodded in agreement and gave Li Chengqian a task.The next day, at the Great Court Meeting, at the Taiji Palace, Li Er mentioned one thing, that is, the land area of the Tang Dynasty has surpassed its predecessors and reached an unprecedented peak, and the ensuing problem is that there is an urgent shortage of talents and a shortage of grassroots officials in various places.Some of those shrewd officials immediately followed the voice and suggested that the imperial examination be expanded in order to select talents.Li Er named Fang Xuanling to preside, but Fang Xuanling excused himself and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister still has to make every effort to plan immigration, city construction and other matters, and he is really unable to get out. ”Well, Li Er pondered for a moment and nodded helplessly.His eyes swept to the ministers below, and inadvertently met with his brother-in-law's eldest grandson Wuji, Li Er looked at others in an instant, but he didn't name them again, thought for a while and said downward: "If Xuan Ling can't withdraw, it will be difficult."
Ministers, can there be a self-nominee, or who will recommend a suitable candidate?
”This move made everyone hesitate, Datang is not the only prime minister now, there is the eldest grandson Wuji behind Fang Xuanling, and Wei Zheng is not good, why doesn't His Majesty name it later, but it is recommended?
Just when everyone hesitated, the eldest grandson Wuji stood up, "The minister recommends His Royal Highness the Prince." ”What???
Not only Li Chengqian was stunned, but even all the ministers were stunned, this uncle is not sick, right?
The person in charge of the imperial examination must be an old man who is old and has rich experience and is very qualified, although the prince is noble enough, but after all, he is too young, how can this be child's play?
Li Chengqian hurriedly stood up and said, "Thank you uncle for your kindness."
Father, the son knows that he is not knowledgeable, and his qualifications are not enough, and it is difficult to take on a big responsibility, so he dare not respond to this matter. ”Li Er squinted his eyes and nodded, and said in a slightly accentuated tone: "Yes, auxiliary machine, Cheng Qian is too young after all, he can't do this, let's change someone." ”At this time, someone stood up and said: "Your Majesty, in terms of qualifications and knowledge, Zhao Guogong has overwhelmed others, and he has often presided over imperial examinations in the past, and the minister recommends Sun Wuji, the eldest prince of Zhao Guogong." ”"The ministers seconded it!"
Quite a few people stood up.The corners of Li Er's mouth moved slightly, and then nodded with a smile and said, "Very good, the auxiliary machine is indeed a suitable candidate." ”At this time, someone stood up and objected and said: "Your Majesty, if you talk about qualifications and knowledge, it is most appropriate for the minister to recommend the secretary and supervisor Yu Shinan, and the secretary of Yu to be the senior Confucian, or the great Confucian in the world, and he will preside over the assessment of students across the country." ”Well??
Many people looked at this recommender and said that this product is not a fool?
Standing up at this time, didn't you stretch out your head and offend your uncle Sun Wuji?
But Yu Shinan's Confucian hope is indeed enough, and some people really stand up and agree.Next, the Taiji Hall court meeting will be wonderful, and the waves of recommendations will be one after another, not only the eldest grandson Wuji and Yu Shinan, but even Wei Zheng, Xu Jingzong, etc., just one thing, it is enough to see that the gangs in this court bureau, although they live in the same palace, they are not monolithic.After a while, the discussion gradually subsided, and Wei Zheng stood up: "Your Majesty, Lao Cheng is old, frail and sick, and he can't support it every day, so I am afraid it will be difficult to take on this position." ”Li Er looked at Wei Zheng, who was getting thinner and thinner, and said with some worry: "Aiqing must take care of her body. ”"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, the old minister also has someone to recommend.I remember a few years ago, Du Juma used the people's spontaneous fund-raising method to set up schools in major cities, it has been a few years, although I don't know the effect, but for my Datang to add countless literacy is certain, this scientific expedition expanded, these children are bound to sign up.Why didn't Your Majesty let Du Juma be the chief examiner?
”Without waiting for Li Er to speak, someone questioned it, Gao Shilian said: "Wei Xiang, although Du Juma is talented, after all, he has less participation in state affairs, and he is too young and has shallow qualifications, and the selection of talents is a big deal, in case" Wei Zheng said dissatisfied: "Young?
Qualifications?
Isn't Gao Shangshu's statement ridiculous?
How many big things has Du Juma done over the years?
Pick out anything that someone like you and me can do?
Which of these things is not a state affair?
Such a person who is dedicated to the public good, but you say that he has little participation in state affairs?
As for youth and qualifications, if age is qualifications, then the most qualified person in the world should be the divine doctor Sun Daochang, invite him to come?
”Gao Shilian argued angrily: "You old Wei, I'm not raising the bar with you, Du Juma has the ability to be true, but he has never participated in such a thing as the imperial examination, in case he can't bear it, this is a delay in the election of talents, can you afford it?"
”Wei Zhengzheng said: "If you have the heart to do things for the country, what can't you do?"
I believe in Du Juma, you don't believe him because you don't understand, don't believe you ask others what they think?
Old Yu, do you think Du Shaoqing's talent and qualifications can take on a big role?
”Yu Shinan shook his head and said: "Shaoqing is the old man's protégé, the old man should avoid suspicion on this issue, or ask Your Majesty to decide." ”Li Er said with a smile: "There is a way to be virtuous and not to avoid relatives, Aiqing is the head of the sect in the world, you have enough say in the matter of the imperial examination, you should speak freely." ”Yu Shinan respectfully saluted Li Er, and then said loudly: "In terms of character and ability, I don't doubt Shaoqing at all, but as Gao Shangshu said, Shaoqing has never participated in scientific research, in case of carelessness, no one can afford this responsibility." ”Li Er nodded noncommittally, and then Li Chengqian stood up, "Father, if all the ministers dare not take over the task because they are afraid of taking responsibility, then they can't do anything?"
If the imperial court abandoned it for fear of doing the wrong thing, wouldn't there be no one to use at all?
There is a way to use people without suspicion, and suspects do not need to use them.So Erchen has a suggestion that maybe you can have the best of both worlds. ”"Yes, the prince's words are impartial and pertinent enough, tell me your suggestions."
Li Er nodded with satisfaction.Li Chengqian straightened up and said, "The way for the sons and daughters is to choose an old minister to be in charge.At the same time, because the expansion of the imperial examination is also open to a large number of newcomers who have learned from the new school, if Du Shaoqing, the founder of the new school, can participate in the writing of questions and marking papers, it should be able to have the best of both worlds. ”Everyone looked at the prince in surprise, this idea is bold enough, it seems to be the way to seek perfection in the prince's song, so that Du Shaoqing can let go of the position that can be responsible, but he won the real power of the proposition, which is really a slick enough move.Li Er stroked his palms and laughed, "Okay!
It's the best of both worlds, and that's great!
Who do you recommend for this person in charge?
”Li Chengqian looked at his uncle, "Secretary Yu and Wei Xiangare both too old to be tired, and my father said that the virtuous do not avoid relatives, and the son recommends his uncle Zhao Guogong." ”"Well, very good, the auxiliary machine is responsible for the overall situation of the imperial examination, and Du Shaoqing is in charge of the proposition.Ladies and gentlemen, if there are no objections, then it is decided?
”The emperor asked so obviously, who would dare to object?
Everyone agrees with this point of view, only the eldest grandson Wuji frowned tightly, Li Er's father and son didn't know their grudge against Du Shaoqing, what did they mean by cooperating with Du Shaoqing like this?
But if the eldest grandson Wuji refuses such an important position just because he has doubts in his heart, it is impossible, as the chief examiner of the first session, all the officials who have been selected by his hands this session can form a teacher-student friendship with him, this opportunity to attract contacts, presumably no one will let go.On the way back, Wei Zheng came to Yu Shinan's side and asked puzzledly: "Old Yu, with your and my understanding of Shaoqing, he can win the imperial examination without pressure."
Why don't you give him a hand?
He's your old protégé. ”The corners of Yu Shinan's mouth twitched, and he replied left and right: "It is said that you Wei Xuancheng is upright, and it is really an eye-opener for the old man to be able to say words from your mouth that make me favor your protégé." ”Wei Zheng didn't care about the embarrassment of being ridiculed by Old Man Yu, and insisted on his own point of view and said: "Juxian does not avoid relatives, not to mention who Shaoqing is, you and I know best."

It is rare to have both ability and political integrity in a hundred years, my body is becoming less and less supportive, you are afraid that it is also hard to support, before you and I withdraw from the court, we can choose a capable person to lead the world's sect, what do you always scruple about?
Is it the eldest grandson fat man?
Although he presided over the revision of the Tang Laws and Regulations, no one knew that what he had learned was quite miscellaneous, and he was at most a Legalist, and he could not set an example for Confucian scholars in the world. ”"Hmph, the old man has gone through two dynasties and several generations of emperors in his life, how could he ever be afraid of any powerful person?
Now what you and I should worry about the most is not the ancestral inheritance, but His Majesty's decision today, Zhao Guogong and Shaoqing are not in agreement, everyone knows it, let the two of them together, this imperial examination, I am afraid that there will be chaos. ”Seeing that Yu Shinan repeatedly changed the topic, obviously avoiding talking about it, Wei Zheng could only sigh and give up and no longer ask.And Yu Shinan has a hard time, his family knows his own affairs, and Du Shaoqing is his protégé, although he has only taught him three days.But because of this, I know this student best, and it is rumored that Du Shaoqing is talented and talented, and his poetry and songs are unmatched, etc., in fact, they are all blown out, mostly because of the moonlit night of the Spring River.But Yu Shinan clearly knows that Du Shaoqing is not good at learning bullshit at all, and those poems and songs are also copied from the mysterious teacher who passed away.In this case, why didn't he object to Du Shaoqing as the questioner?
That's because there is more than one questioner, Du Shaoqing can be the first person to write the question, but there are many different types of examinations in the imperial examination, Du Shaoqing can only show what he is good at, so there will be no problems.On the other hand, Li Chengqian excitedly went to Du's house to inform Du Shaoqing, who was coaxing the child, of the good news.Du Shaoqing was so surprised that he almost threw out the little daughter in his hand and asked me to give questions to candidates all over the world???
Which idiot came up with this bad idea?
Li Chengqian said with a dark face and embarrassment: "It's me who is an idiot!"
”"You, you, you're really, really, hum, it's not a loss to scold you for being a fool, and you're going to be killed!"
Du Shaoqing pointed at Li Chengqian speechlessly.Li Chengqian could only respond by himself, he hadn't told his brother-in-law the truth, it was actually the idea of his father, Emperor Li Er.He didn't understand, why was Du Shaoqing so surprised and needed such a big reaction?
How did it feel like he was scared?
