One thousand two hundred and sixty-two chapters

After the examination, Lin Yanchao submitted a memorial to the emperor, and according to the convention, the palace examination planned to use the Nine Ministers Zhan Han as the reading officer as the reading officer, and submitted a list.

Finally, the emperor approved the list, and the court issued an order to include Grand Secretary Zhao Zhigao, Minister of Personnel Lu Guangzu, Minister of Revenue Yang Junmin, Minister of Revenue Lin Yanchao, Minister of War Shi Xing, Minister of Works Shu Hongzhi, Minister of Justice Sun Piyang, Minister of Justice Li Shida, Right Minister of Rites, Right Minister of Rites, Chen Yubi, Office of Zhan Shifu, and Minister of Attorney Sheng Ne was the official reading document.

The day before the palace examination, these ten readers gathered in the Wenhua Palace.

Apart from Wang Jiaping, these ten people are also the most powerful civil officials today.

Zhao Zhigao was sitting in the main seat for the first time. At this moment, he looked at Lu Guangzu, the left-handed head, then Yang Junmin, the right-handed head, and Lin Yanchao, who was sitting next to Lu Guangzu, and looked at everyone's expressions.

Zhao Zhigao said: "Today I will discuss the policy of tomorrow's palace examination. What should I do in my opinion?"

Of course, the officials didn't say anything. Zhao Zhigao said, "Tell me about it with Brother Sheng."

Lu Guangzu smiled when he heard this. A few days ago, he promoted the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, and officials above the fifth rank in Beijing were all recommended. Lu Guangzu was the first in the court as the Minister of Personnel, and the second place was Luo Wanhua and Chen Yubi.

Now Lu Guangzu's chances of winning in the cabinet are very good. Even if he doesn't, Zhao Zhigao would ask for his advice on trivial matters such as the palace examination questions.

Lu Guangzu nodded and said, "Then I will say a few words. This year is the 20th year of the Supreme Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Supreme Emperor. Over the past twenty years, the country has been peaceful and the people have been peaceful and peaceful. I think we should draw up a peaceful and festive topic as the palace examination for the Holy Lord."

After Lu Guangzu said this, the following document reading officer nodded.

"That's right. The palace examination questions should be drafted in this way, congratulations to the Holy Lord!"

"Yes, twenty years of peace and prosperity are rare throughout the ages!"

Yang Junmin, who was in the third chair in the hall, nodded and was about to express his gratitude, but saw Lin Yanchao frowning and put the words in his stomach.

All officials were used to Lu Guangzu's abuse of power and issuing orders. During the court discussion, when Wang Jiaping was there, he decided to do something big. When Wang Jiaping was there, Lu Guangzu even made a one-man show.

Lu Guangzu was very skilled in dealing with people and things, and now he is a great priest, and everyone is afraid of it.

Lu Guangzu glanced left and right, only Lin Yanchao and Yang Junmin did not speak out.

This time, Lin Yanchao voluntarily gave up the qualification to elect the Ministry of Personnel. In Lu Guangzu's eyes, this was a sensible move.

Lu Guangzu thought that the palace examination policy was always dedicated to the Ministry of Rites, and his move was somewhat suspicious of being abusing power, but at the moment when he wanted to enter the cabinet, he must be favored by the holy will, so he must use the palace examination questions to curry favor with the emperor.

So Lu Guangzu skipped the process of asking Lin Yanchao and asked Zhao Zhigao: "What do you think?"

Zhao Zhigao's eyes were half-closing. When he heard Lu Guangzu's words, he immediately cleared his throat and nodded, "Okay, okay, good, I deserve to be the Dazai with Brother Sheng, so I see that it is appropriate. Well, I am the assistant..."

Zhao Zhigao suddenly heard Lin Yanchao coughing lightly.

Zhao Zhigao continued: "I am willing to rely on the public opinion. I wonder what other adults have to say?"

At this time, Lin Yanchao said, "I have a word below. What the Grandpa said is to congratulate the emperor, and it makes sense. Your Majesty has been in power for the 20th year of the throne. During this period, we are ministers, and we should congratulate the emperor. However... but in the prosperous era, there may not be no hidden worries."

As soon as Lin Yanchao said this, the officials' expressions became unnatural.

"For example, the rule of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty in the 20th year of Kaiyuan can also be called peace and prosperity, but in the end there was the Tianbao Rebellion. Although I am wise and intelligent than Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, as a minister, we cannot just praise merits and should be prepared for danger in times of peace!"

"You have heard about the recent incident. The country has not been established. The Korean accomplice Han Yingyin came to the court to report that the Japanese chief Ping Hideyoshi had already launched an invasion. Ningxia also reported the thieves to capture the thief because on the 18th of last month, he joined his son Chengen, adopted son Yun and Tu Wenxiu, and sent military frontman Liu Dong to rebel, kill the governor Dang Xin and deputy envoy Shi Jifang, set fire to the public office, collect talismans and seals, and issue treasurys to release prisoners. The current situation is not yet time to praise the merits, so you should think twice!"

At this time, Sun Piyang, the Minister of Justice, said: "What Da Zongbo said is reasonable, and I think we should take Kaiyuan Tianbao as a warning."

When Lu Guangzu heard Lin Yanchao and Sun Piyang's words, he had long been unhappy on his face.

Lu Guangzu had a story with Sun Piyang, the Minister of Justice. At that time, Lu Guangzu was a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel and was deeply trusted by Yan Ne, the Minister of Personnel at that time, and entrusted him with all matters of all kinds.

Lu Guangzu was also quite arbitrary in his actions, and he never discussed the promotion and demotion of officials. He was known as the censor Sun Piyang and then impeached Lu Guangzu. Lu Guangzu was dismissed from office because of Sun Piyang's impeachment.

After Lu Guangzu was dismissed from office, one day he met Sun Piyang and told him in person that he was grateful for his teachings. When I was an official in the Ministry of Personnel, I kept talking about the human relationship. If I did not act arbitrarily, I was afraid that I would not be able to select suitable officials for the court.

After hearing this, Sun Piyang immediately said, "I am wrong about this matter, I will recommend you to the court again."

Lu Guangzu knew that Sun Piyang was straightforward, so he said lightly: "Then according to how the Grand Secretary Kou should write, we can't use Kaiyuan Tianbao as the title!"

Sun Piyang said: "I have no argument for this matter, but Da Zongbo is the Minister of Rites. He must have great opinions on the palace examination questions!"

Lu Guangzu reluctantly smiled and asked Lin Yanchao: "So according to the views of the Grand Principal, what should be the subject of this year's palace examination policy?"

Lin Yanchao said: "Reporting to the Taizai, of course, the words of Kaiyuan Tianbao cannot be mentioned. Of course, the same sentence cannot be praised all the time. I think it is better to be prepared for danger in times of peace! Then, I think the questions of this palace examination should be closely followed!"

After hearing what Lin Yanchao said, the officials nodded one after another.

Zhao Zhigao smiled and said, "I am worthy of being a great master. This topic is well-written! There are admonitions in the verses, and there are admonitions in the verses! My Ming Dynasty has been founded for two hundred years, and I met the king of Yao and Shun again. This should be the time for the revival."

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "I mean that the emperor is willing to be the lord of Zhongxing. We should try our best to be the minister of Zhongxing. As for how to revive, it depends on our actions in the future. At the same time, this can also be used as a topic to let scholars all over the world know the determination of the court and set a tone for future governance. I wonder what Dazai thinks?"

Lu Guangzu looked at Lin Yanchao and thought to himself that the word "Zhongxing" was indeed much better than the palace examination questions he had drafted, and it was really more liked by the emperor than just singing praises. It seems that when it comes to judging the holy intention, I am far from having so many sons.

Lu Guangzu smiled when he heard this, as if he had agreed, but he seemed not to agree.

Seeing that he did not express his opinion, the officials did not know his intention and did not dare to express his opinion.

After waiting for a while, Lu Guangzu saw that no one was talking, and then said, "What are you waiting for? Let's draw a question with this!"

After hearing Lu Guangzu's words, the officials breathed a sigh of relief.
