The whole family of villains criticized her wildly, but the princess treated her with medical treatm

"puff--"

Zebao took a sip and spat out, "No, who wants to marry Yang Dashao? Anyway, I don't!"

Ya Bao thoughtfully took out a white handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped his brother's mouth full of dirt, and corrected him: "Her name is Yang Tongyue, and her mother gave her the name."

"I remember, she grabbed a spoon at the Zhou Banquet, and her father immediately decided that she might as well call her Yang Dashao, hahaha."

Zebao grinned and teased, "This girl must be very good at eating. Unlike me, I grabbed a small sword at the Zhuzhou Banquet. It is so powerful and domineering. I will definitely be like my father in the future, going into battle to kill the enemy." of."

Ya Bao couldn't help laughing: "However, I heard that my mother refused and was unwilling to marry us brothers. She just asked the eldest grandson of the Yang family to come over and be our companion."

"Mom is so kind."

A happy smile appeared on Zebao's rosy cheeks, "On the deck of our Imperial College, more than half of the children were forcibly married by their parents. Those classmates don't even know what their fiancées look like."

Ya Bao nodded: "That's what happened. I heard that the little bully from Li's family, Young Master Li Qi, was paired with a black and powerful six-year-old girl from a noble family."

Zebao smiled happily: "You deserve it!"

There was a pause.

Zebao said again, "By the way Wuya, when you arrested Zhou, what did you grab?"

Ya Bao was stunned.

Catch the week?

He was adopted by a Ma slave servant from Mu Mansion's gambling house. He had neither enough food nor clothing to keep him warm, so his adoptive parents would not throw him any kind of feast.

"Can not remember."

Ya Bao's expression was a little sad, and his thick eyelashes drooped downwards.

"You are so smart, you must have grabbed a book or a gold ingot." Zebao didn't realize that his brother was in a low mood and patted his shoulder carelessly.

Ya Bao smiled shyly.

*. *. *

The regent was originally a very diligent person.

original.

He had arrived at the Zhenbei Military Camp early in the morning for nine days in a row to train his soldiers.

He has been absent from the three-day imperial meeting for three consecutive times.

All civil and military officials were shocked.

The officials who left the party were whispering and teasing excitedly.

"The township of Wenwen is the Tomb of Heroes. This statement is indeed true."

"The regent and the eldest princess should be married as soon as possible. The regent is absent from the court meeting, and colleagues feel relaxed. They no longer have to worry about losing their heads if they say something wrong."

"Stop talking, I didn't see His Majesty's face turning dark."

Xie Xuanchen sat high on the Danqi Dragon Chair, with displeasure written all over his face.

The regent's rosewood chair in front of the dragon chair was empty.

It stands to reason that he should be happy that the powerful official who crushed him so hard is no longer here. He will have more say in the court meeting and be able to dominate more things. However, whenever he thought of this damn Yan Yang, constantly hanging around the emperor's sister, openly and openly hanging out with the emperor's sister day and night as the eldest princess's consort, he felt so uncomfortable that his heart felt like it was bursting.

"Your Majesty, I believe that holding the imperial examination is unbecoming and contrary to the ancestral system. Since ancient times, officials have been appointed on the one hand through the promotion of filial piety and integrity by officials of the third rank or above in the court, and on the other hand through the training of talents by the Imperial College, directly Entering the officialdom, this system lasted for thousands of years, except for the Yunhuang dynasty, it was the same for the previous three dynasties."

Zuo Pu shot Li Shangshu, taking advantage of the absence of the regent and the eldest princess, to argue with each other at the court meeting.

He tried to veto Xiao Wangzhi's proposal for the imperial examination and was completely thrown into the ditch, never to stand up again.

joke!

In the past, children from aristocratic families did not have to do anything. They could directly become officials at the age of sixteen and rise all the way to the top. Why should a group of lowly common people and students from poor families come to the officialdom to share in the officialdom?

Power should be concentrated in the hands of powerful families!

Xiao Wangzhi immediately raised the wat tablet and went out to the class to say: "This is a bad statement from Duke Li. Selecting scholars through the imperial examination can bring all the heroes of the world into the hands of your majesty. It will be more conducive to the centralization of power by your majesty and weaken the decentralization of power among aristocratic families." legacy."

Hit the nail on the head.

In the court, almost all the officials' expressions changed.

This Xiao Linggong, Prime Minister Xiao, he really dares!

Dare to say it and dare to do it!

As expected, even the young emperor was extremely moved when he heard this, with a strange look in his eyes.

Xie Xuanchen originally unswervingly supported his teacher Li Fan, but Xiao Wangzhi's words hit him hard in the heart.

It's true that he is a puppet emperor, but the Yan family who controls him is a hateful family member who is greedy for power!

He longed to be in charge and to regain imperial power.

Longing for the emperor’s autocratic power!

The imperial examination system was just right, it could complement the emperor's centralized power system, indirectly weaken the control of the aristocratic families over the emperor, and support the children from poor families who passed the imperial examination as new forces to fight against the aristocratic families.

"Why did Duke Xiao Ling come up with the idea of ​​imperial examination? To select talents for the emperor?"

"Your Majesty, this is not the plan of the minister, but the plan of the eldest princess."

Xiao Linggong bowed deeply, with a look of pride on his face, and said generously, "Last year in Baidi City, Her Royal Highness the Princess discussed the idea of ​​selecting scholars through the imperial examination with the old ministers, and listed the specific procedures and assessments. The subject system is very rigorously designed.”

Xie Xuanchen's heart surged and his pupils shrank violently.

It’s the royal sister again!

The fact that the imperial sister can come up with such a clever plan shows that she, like herself, is very disgusted with the influence of wealthy families.

The imperial sister is indeed his confidant!

"When Sister Xuanhuang enters the palace, I will personally discuss with her the selection of scholars through the imperial examination."

"This... I'm afraid it's too late."

As a close confidant of Mu Tingxue, Xiao Wangzhi knew her itinerary, "At this moment, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess has already left for Baidi Province with the Regent."

"what?"

Xie Xuanchen was furious.

Damn it, Yan Yang!

After spending nine days together with the imperial sister, they actually abducted him again, and the couple went on a sweet trip to Baidizhou!

*. *. *

Mu Tingxue was indeed on her honeymoon with her newlywed husband.

After working hard for more than a year, it’s not too much to go on a honeymoon trip after getting married.

Moreover.

She wasn't just focused on her honeymoon, there were many chili seeds in the carriage. The people who were brought to Baidizhou District and asked to start planting peppers.

The huge economic value that peppers can create is immeasurable.

It is estimated to be a little worse than those high-yielding grains.

Although she no longer accepts food from the people of Baidizhou, she still has to give extra preferential treatment to her fief base.

"Sleepy?"

Yan Yang found his wife, leaning against the window and yawning lazily.

"Well, I've been feeling sleepy these past few days."
