Chapter 794 The Emperor wants to harm me
"It is because of this disadvantage that Wei Shizu opened shipping and repeatedly banned the shipments in later generations. It was not because there was no cause. It seems that it must be discussed in detail."
After a moment of silence, Qian Xu turned the topic to the matter in Southwest Province.
"Emperor, now the chieftains of the southwest province have surrendered and everything has gradually subsided. Should I call Governor Luo Pei back to Beijing to recuperate my post?" Qian Xu said inquiring.
Hearing this, everyone's expressions moved. Luo Pei had defected to Taisun very early. What was the meaning of saying this?
Then he saw the emperor thinking for a while and said, "Luo Pei has been away from Jing for a long time. It's time to come back. You draft a decree and grant Luo Pei the crown prince's junior guarantee, so that he can return to Beijing quickly after receiving the decree."
"Yes!" The old master responded, shocked. The Prince Shaobao was one of the third divisions, so he gave it to Luo Pei like this?
But then I thought about it again that the Prince's Young Guardian, as the name suggests, is the Young Guardian, who protects the Prince. Luo Pei is close to the Grand Grandson. It seems that it is very appropriate to ask Luo Pei to be the Prince's Young Guardian.
The cabinet minister thought something and listened to the emperor's words: "It is a major event for the country to enthrone the grandson, and it is better to celebrate the New Year holiday..."
When this statement involves Su Ziji, he cannot keep silent and just listen, and quickly get up and salute: "Emperor, Sun Chen can only be enthroned by the emperor's grace. If the enthronement of the emperor has not been made, how can all officials and people celebrate Sun Chen solemnly? This is absolutely not acceptable!"
Su Ziji hurriedly resigned, and he didn't care about such a false reputation.
After hearing Su Ziji's refusal, the emperor said lightly: "The grandson does not need to refuse. You are the grandson and the crown prince. If the crown prince is established, it is a major event for the country and should be celebrated grandly."
The emperor said this, and Su Ziji knew that he could not refuse. It was the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month and it would be sealed in two days.
However, there is one person who cannot seal it, that is, Tanping, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture. Even during the Chinese New Year, Tanping, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, must be responsible for the public security in the capital.
The emperor specifically told Tan Ping, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, about the seal, and said: "From today, until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it is a festival. The public security of the capital must be taken seriously and no mistakes must be made..."
"Please rest assured, I will do my best to do my job!" Tanping, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, immediately stepped out and responded.
"For the sake of foolproof, Sun Linzhao!"
"I'm here."
"You lead the Hu Ben Guard to assist in the public security of the capital."
"yes!"
"Okay, time is tight, you can do it now." The emperor waved his hand and ordered him to retreat, as if he asked the commander of the Hu Ben Guard Sun Linzhao to listen to this matter.
After the two left, the only ministers in the hall were left.
For holidays and public security, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture Tanping will prepare for it. Luo Pei is also going to come back. Now the cabinet master has only one thing to discuss immediately, which is the matter of the Spring Examination.
Because the emperor did not let the grandson leave, and the grandson was the crown prince again, there was no need to avoid it. Zhao Xu was the chief assistant, so he asked for instructions: "The spring examination is a national talent ceremony. I also asked the emperor to tell him who is the chief examiner, and what question is asked?"
After hearing this, the emperor walked slowly and pondered: "The spring examination is indeed a major event. A cabinet minister should have taken it, but now the state affairs are busy, and you are tired, so it is not good to add any burden."
"Luo Pei was originally a Jinshi and made great contributions in the southwest this time. I think that when he returned to Beijing to recuperate his post, he could just order him to be the chief examiner of this class. How about it?"
After the emperor said this, what else can the ministers do? Of course, everyone calls him the Grand Secretary of the Huagai Palace and the Deputy Minister of Political Affairs Xie Zhi couldn't help but look at him.
Whoever becomes the chief examiner is the "senior" of two or three hundred Jinshi in the first class, and it has a great influence. This is a special kindness. Is the emperor really sincere to the grandson to strengthen his wings?
As soon as he thought about it, the emperor continued, "As for the test questions, I will first give one, one person, two people, but not one."
As soon as these words were said, the people in the cabinet were very energetic and couldn't help but look at Su Ziji.
According to convention, when the emperor gave the first test question, the chief assistant Zhao Xu pondered: "The emperor's question is excellent, and it is in line with the way of governing the country. I asked a question, what is the unparalleled national scholar?"
The emperor nodded, and Xie Zhi followed the third article: "What does the people mean to officials?"
These three items, rewards and punishments, selection of talents, and governing the country, are actually close to each other, and are the core of this spring exam test.
The rest are based on three questions.
Looking at the emperor's expression, he obviously thought that all three were OK. He glanced at Su Ziji and saw that he didn't say a word, and he smiled: "I have heard of Taisun for a long time. These three questions were written by Taisun. How about?"
"Yes, Sun Chen obeys the order."
It's strange that this was a great grace, but Su Ziji suddenly felt a little scared and was in this warm speech. However, he couldn't think about it carefully at this time, so he had to kneel in front of the small table and write it with his pen and write it out, and then put it on with both hands.
The emperor looked at it and latched the seal with his own hands, folded it carefully, put it in the book and sealed it, and sealed it with seals and locked it.
The emperor looked at the people in the hall again and said lightly: "This is the question of this major test, which is related to the future of thousands of candidates. Only I and you know in the hall. You can't let it go, otherwise... don't blame me for not premonition."
Although the emperor was old and dusk, these words made people sweat. Several ministers were all cabinet masters, and they were scared and hurriedly knelt down and said.
生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生�
"Your Majesty, this is a great trust in the country to participate in this. How dare you learn from the past four years of Qingwu and play with your wealth and life?"
In the fourth year of Qingwu, when Taizu was the second imperial examination, someone leaked the questions. Taizu was furious. All seventeen examiners were executed, and 200 officials were dealt with. More than 6,000 exiled people... This is a lesson from the past, and it is not far away.
"..." Su Ziji sat down and listened to this, and suddenly felt something and narrowed his eyes.
"It's good to remember... I'm tired, you'll leave, Chen Xu, send the grandson to you." The emperor's energy was obviously worse than that. After dealing with the Spring Examination questions, he was a little sleepy and asked them all to retreat.
"Yes!" Someone outside the hall responded. Chen Xu respectfully greeted Su Ziji on the chariot and smiled: "I congratulate the grandson. It's not that I flattered you in person. If you want to talk about favor, no one can match you. The emperor really takes you to the heart."
"Yes, I put it on my heart." Su Ziji responded with a smile and left the palace gate. This time he did not get on Jin Lu, but directly got on the ox cart behind him, and ordered: "Don't go back to the mansion first, go to Maoer Lane, Nanluo Hutong, slow down!"
The ox cart was not empty, and the wild Taoist was inside, so he reached out to let Su Ziji sit. The silver plate inside was covered with charcoal, and a slight heat flowed out. He handed it to the hot towel to wipe his face. After thinking about it, he handed it over with a green robe: "Lord, if you want to go to Maoer Lane, Nanluo Hutong, wear this suitable."
"Jiji!" A little white-haired fox was squatting near the charcoal stove and yawned.
"You've prepared well."
This is a thick cotton robe. The style is popular this year, and it is 70% new. At first glance, it is worn by the wealthy scholars at home.
He then changed into thick cotton boots, put on Confucian scarves on his head, and let the wild Taoist put some makeup on his face. Even if someone who knew Su Ziji at first glance, he could not tell that Su Ziji was the grandson, and he would only think that he was a new recruit with a good appearance and a good temperament.
This outfit is indeed the dress that a new student from Xiaofu will dress in winter. Su Ziji picked up a mirror and looked at it, very satisfied with the craftsmanship of the Ye Taoist.
What is more satisfying is careful preparation.
Although I had already thought about going to Maoer Lane, Nanluo Hutong, and visited my old friend for a long time, I only mentioned one sentence and didn’t have time, but everything was prepared long ago.
"Lord, you went to the palace today and didn't use much breakfast. You can't hurt your stomach. This is the snack of Jade Building. It's famous in the capital. You have tried it in advance. Use it more or less!"
Then, take out a silver bottle on one side of the charcoal stove, pour a cup of hot tea, and open a box. There are several kinds of snacks inside, all of which are still hot.
Su Ziji took it and chewed it slowly. Seeing that the emperor was just not good, no one knew how long it would take to stay. If you drink too much and eat too much, it would be a big deal.
"I feel it is very unfavorable to me when the emperor sees me today."
The dessert was very sweet and the tea was very good, but Su Ziji threw out this sentence gloomyly, and suddenly, the entire ox cart instantly appeared, and even the charcoal fire became dark.
"Emperor, I'm going to harm me!"
