Kuai Chuan: The villain became my plug-in

Chapter 45

"Today, seagoing vessels such as Shengjing, Huaizhou, and Yuhe are mooring in the east. Recently, the courtiers have debated whether the maritime ban is also relevant?"

Gu Nian's head twitched. If she wanted to talk about power and wisdom, she might still need to practice for a few more years, but when it comes to court politics and other issues, she can still express some opinions.

Throughout history, all dynasties and dynasties will cause disputes because of this matter. Banning the sea means separating the country from other countries. A frog in a well is easily confused by the temporary prosperity and does not think about making progress. Although it can prohibit some other countries from invading, but Going too far is not enough, like the Qing government closed the country, launched the Opium War, and then fell completely.

Gu Nian pondered over and over in her mind before starting to write down her answer.

Minister to minister heard:

Opening up the sea, those who benefit, learn from the strengths of others, make up for their own shortcomings, trade and trade, and improve the people's living and working in peace and contentment. The land also.

Forbidden sea, disadvantages, secluded country, difficult to self-examination, there are many people who are content with themselves, besieged by great powers, have no strength to fight, the state of Zhou is at stake, and the winners will stabilize the peace of mind of the people in the coastal areas and consolidate the concentration of the emperor's power.

However, I think that it is better to block than to sparse, and to ban is not as good as to open it. The ban on the sea will do more harm than good, and it will not benefit the prosperity and strength of the state of Zhou. If there are three people, there must be my teacher. Take the best from them and make up for your own weaknesses. In the world, what is there to be afraid of?
The imperial court opened the sea, set up counties, built a maritime army, widened the customs clearance ports, fishermen were not allowed to cross the line, and set up a Pepsi shop to recruit talented people from all over the world. Those who benefit the country will be rewarded with silver and white taels. Commercial ships need authorization. Tongtong, those who trade freely, abide by the terms of opening the sea, and are not allowed to go to sea without permission. The imperial court has strengthened patrols...

The minister is a newcomer to learning, ignorant of taboos, arrogant and strict, trembling to the extreme.The minister is right.

After Gu Nian finished writing the last sentence, he put down the pen in his hand and looked forward. Shao Jijian, who will be the first name in the test, had already stopped writing and was standing aside with confidence.

Seeing Gu Nian looking at him, he slightly nodded at Gu Nian.

In the solemn and solemn atmosphere, only the regent dared to close his eyes in the court hall, while the lower officials stood there for nearly two hours, not daring to speak.

Only the six-year-old little emperor at the head was twisting and turning on the dragon chair boredly, and his movements were a little bigger.

When the time came, the eunuch dragged his voice and shouted again: "Bi——"

The little eunuch standing behind Gong Shi swiftly gathered up the papers of the students' exams, bound and sealed them, and presented them respectfully to the regent An Chuzhuo.

More than 12 copies of papers were thrown aside by the other party. Looking at the crowded hall below, he uttered the first sentence of this palace test: "Liu Shangshu, Zhu Yushi, Li Cabinet, and other [-] people. The Son of Heaven goes to the Wenhua Palace to review, and the rest wait and retire."

Before the courtiers and tributes bowed down, they took the emperor with them and walked out.

This was the first time Gu Nian saw An Chuzhuo. The distance was too far to see him clearly, but the other party had a strong aura of fighting from the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood.

Arrogant and arrogant, so unreasonable, perhaps this is the way to stabilize the imperial court under the succession of the young emperor.

The little emperor is afraid of him, but he still relies more on him.

Three days later, Gu Nian and others waited quietly in the side hall again, waiting for the emperor to call.

The endless stream of compliments in my ears formed circles, large and small, and formed groups. In the crowd, like the stars surrounding the moon, surrounded by a Gongsheng who was very likely to become the top one.

Shao Jijian, who was the most crowded, walked through the bustling crowd and looked at Gu Nian. She was standing alone by the window.

Among the women, Gu Nian's height ratio, etc., are relatively tall and straight, which can be called outstanding, but compared with the men in the side hall, they are extremely thin and weak.

"Xiaosheng Shao Jijian, the character is long, dare to ask the son's name?"

Gu Nian turned around and smiled at him: "Don't dare, don't dare, Xiaosheng Gu Chuhe, I don't have a name for now, dare you not know? Huiyuan Shao Jijian, I'm in my hand, I'm lucky to meet you."

Shao Jijian said modestly: "Purchase for fame, it's all for fame. Brother Gu thinks highly of it. We are all tribute students. You can't say it, you can't say it..." He shook his hands, but the situation in his eyes must not be faked.

Pausing for a moment, he asked again: "I don't know what opinion Brother Gu has on this imperial examination?"

Gu Nian withdrew his smile, and looked at him solemnly, "I don't know what Brother Shao means by this? Banning the sea and opening the sea are not what we say and do. The court will make its own ruling, and we can just act according to the order."

She looked around, and although the eunuchs serving in the side hall seemed ordinary, their pricked ears indicated that every move happening here might be under the surveillance of someone.

Gu Nian withdrew his smile, and stared coldly at Shao Jijian's eyes. Shao Jijian's body was full of scholarly aura, and his gestures carried a chivalrous air. Flatter him.

Putting aside the tricks, Gu Nian looked at the exam papers of his guild exam, the title of huiyuan is well-deserved, and compared with him, there are indeed some shortcomings.

Although there is no final conclusion on the question of forbidden sea and open sea this time, I am afraid that the imperial court has already had the intention to use this palace examination to gather excellent students from all over the state of Zhou and listen to the people's sentiments and opinions.

Opening the sea and banning the sea are of great importance. It is better not to dispute these Gongsheng students who have not yet achieved fame.

A little carelessness, if it spreads to the ears of others, offends people who shouldn't be offended, arouses protests from the officials, or suspicion from the other party, I am afraid that all the efforts in the early stage will not only be in vain, but also harm the family.

Gu Nian shook her head silently in her heart, the other party's methods were too subtle, she looked to the right, the place where Shao Jijian had just gathered, there were occasional high-spirited discussions, if she guessed correctly, the discussion might be this time The content of the palace test.

There was also the cautious Gongsheng, who watched silently on the sidelines without saying a word, and when asked, he passed away with a few vague words.

Those who are not prepared are afraid that they will be ruined by their own lack of restraint. Who can believe that, one second, they just called you brothers and sisters, and the next second, they themselves became the victims of being pushed into the abyss by the other party.

When confronting each other in private, you can't grasp the opponent's handle, and you may think that it is your bad luck and lack of ability.

At this time, everyone was throwing stones at him, and Shao Jijian would be willing to do things for him even if he risked his life.

Shao Jijian's mind is too heavy to be close friends!

Gu Nian marked him red in his heart, and he should be more cautious when meeting him in the officialdom.

Seeing that Gu Nian refused to speak again, Shao Jijian put his sleeves on his sleeves and smiled lightly: "Brother Gu's words are absolutely true, everything is decided by the Holy Majesty, and I will just follow orders." The discussion was hastily ended.

After a cup of tea, a eunuch came to call.

"Xuan Yijia and three people entered the palace—"

The accompanying eunuchs put the jade osmanthus engraved with cloud patterns in the hands of the three who won the first class.

Gui, the same as Gui, means that the emperor confers honor and is a pillar of talent.

Gu Nian looked up, and besides her and Shao Jijian, there was also a middle-aged man who was very charming, but he was hidden in the crowd without showing off.

The three of them looked at each other, sorted by age, and Gu Nian followed them and walked towards the main hall.

There are bustling congratulatory voices behind him. After crossing this threshold, there is no turning back...
