As soon as Ye Qinghuai finished speaking, chattering started in the hall.

Someone asked for credit for Lu Yanchen: "Your Majesty, Xueshi Lu has made great contributions to the king. I believe that such loyal and brave men should be rewarded heavily. In this way, people all over the world can imitate his acts of loyalty."

Some doubted Lu Yanchen: "Your Majesty, although Master Lu has the merits of escort, but he has been an official for three years and has never shown anything in martial arts. Do you have ulterior motives in keeping a low profile like this?"

There are also those who pay attention to Chu Dingguo: "Your Majesty, I heard that General Chu first stopped His Majesty at Donglin Gate, and then helped Mr. Lu. This person is double-sided, and must not be entrusted with important tasks!"

Ye Qinghuai finished listening one by one, and after the ministers expressed their views, she first asked Gu Shihai, "Does Mr. Gu Ge have anything to say?"

"Chu Dingguo is very brave, but he is not expected to be a general. His Majesty will soon understand. As for Lu Yanchen," Gu Shihai paused, then sneered shortly, and said, "Facing the imperial army, he can still fight with his own strength. There are only a few people who can count as one hundred. Looking at the scene for 200 years, there are not many of them. Such talents are not used to kill the enemy on the battlefield, but they have to be put in the study to write and write. It is really a pity for me.”

"Old Gu Ge! Your Majesty is still here, in front of the Golden Palace, allowing you to speak so loudly!" Chen Yuansi shouted loudly with the confidence he didn't know where he came from.

"Your Majesty asks the minister, and the minister will answer truthfully." Gu Shihai said without fear, "Didn't Mr. Chen Ge see the spy report sent by Yunzhou yesterday? Beidi bought [-] horses from the Jacob tribe a few years ago. The flaming horse is missing now, but Chen Gel is still holding back the military expenditure from the Ministry of War, is he waiting for Beidi's cavalry to overwhelm the Baishui River?"

"The military budget of the Ministry of War has already been over-allocated this year! What's more, the news has not yet been confirmed. Gu Ge took this shadowless report and asked the veterans to allocate food and money to the Ministry of War. Dare I ask, is it because Gu Ge is all soldiers, or What about the greed of the Ministry of War?"

"This year's spring is warm, and the Baishui River thawed early. Mr. Chen Ge, I believe we will soon see these three thousand flaming horses in Yunzhou's military newspaper." After Gu Shihai finished speaking, he stopped arguing with him.

The hall fell silent for a while.

After a while, Gu Shihai seemed to have remembered the reason for the dispute, so he said to Ye Qinghuai: "The Forbidden Army belongs to Your Majesty, and I have no right to comment on who your Majesty will use. I only have one sentence of advice to His Majesty."

He looked at Ye Qinghuai with a smile in his eyes, but not a smile.

"Mud can't support the wall."

Chen Yuansi seemed to have another attack, but Ye Qinghuai raised his hand to stop him.

She smiled at Gu Shihai: "I will always keep Gu Ge's advice in mind."

There was no sound in the hall, and the monarchs and ministers looked at each other across the jade steps, with smiles on their faces, but sharp eyes in their eyes.

This matter finally came to an end when the two men looked at each other tensely.

When Tingyi came to the next topic, Ye Qinghuai's eyes turned to the Ministry of Rites.

"Wen Xinzhong, has the time for Chunwei's retry been fixed?" Ye Qinghuai asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this matter involves literary schools, tribute colleges, and academies in various states, and requires coordination. Some candidates have already returned to their hometowns, and some are living in the hospital and cannot take the exam. The list of candidates needs to be revised, and their identities need to be reviewed one by one. .”

"There is no need to be so troublesome. Just follow the previous version of the roster of candidates. Those who cannot participate in the test will be recorded as absent. The topics of the three subjects will be drawn up by myself. In addition, the palace test will be resumed. After the rankings are announced, all the top three will go to the palace to face the saint, and I will randomly check their knowledge. "

The courtiers couldn't help looking at Ye Qinghuai with half surprise and half admiration.

There are a total of more than one hundred people in the top three, and they barely stand or stand in this Hall of Supreme Harmony.Ye Qinghuai wanted to meet each of them face to face, even if it was just a spot check, it would probably take a day and a night.

The officials couldn't help feeling in their hearts that Dajing hadn't had such an energetic emperor for a long time.

When the courtiers were stunned, Ye Qinghuai turned coldly to Wen Xinzhong and said, "If I find out that there are people who are not worthy of their names, the entire Ministry of Rites will resign together."

Hearing Ye Qinghuai's last sentence, Wen Xinzhong's pupils suddenly shrank, and he was speechless in a daze.

"Your Majesty, calm down! The Ministry of Rites is the head of the six departments. Why would you abolish it lightly for the sake of a mere spring?" An official held the wat and said.

"A mere spring?" Ye Qinghuai raised her voice and said angrily, "The Ministry of Rites is the head of the six departments, but the scientific examination is the foundation of my dynasty! If even the scientific examination is rotten, then there are still people in my Jing Dynasty Is it usable? There are no people left, so who do you expect to run the country?"

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

Then, Li Wenqing stepped out of the queue and said sonorously: "Your Majesty, I ask you to supervise and review the whole process of the scientific examination to ensure that there is no suspicion of fraud in the re-examination. I beg Your Majesty to allow it."

Ye Qinghuai looked at Li Wenqing, couldn't hide his appreciation in his eyes, and said, "Okay, I'm sure."

Immediately, she asked Xiang Wen Xinzhong again: "Wen Qing, has the date of my wedding been set?"

For a moment, Chen Yuansi, Gu Shihai and Wen Xinzhong looked at her with different expressions.

Wen Xinzhong replied: "Yesterday, the Qin Tianjian deduced the good and bad luck. Today, I have invited the god card in the Taimiao, and I will come to report to Your Majesty."

"What kind of days does Qin Tianjian count?"

"April eighteenth."

"That means there is still one month left." Ye Qinghuai said, she thought for a while, then turned to Gu Shihai and asked, "How does Gu Ge think this day is good?"

"The day of Qin Tianjian's calculation is naturally a good day." Gu Shihai changed the subject and said, "I heard that His Majesty is going to welcome Mr. Chen Ge's granddaughter into the palace this time. I don't know what Mr. Chen thinks about this day. ?”

After speaking, he looked at Chen Yuansi provocatively.

Chen Yuansi ignored him.

"In that case, let's do it according to the days calculated by Qintian Monitoring." Ye Qinghuai finally said.

After finishing speaking, she thought for a while, and said: "Wenqing, I think the eighth day of April is a good day, and it is advisable to open the book. The retrial of Chunwei will be on the eighth day of April."

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's a bit hasty for Chun Wei to join the wedding celebration." Wen Xinzhong complained.

"If there is a shortage of people in the spring, go to the Ministry of Officials to coordinate. If there is a shortage of people in the celebration, let the inner court arrange for you. Don't miss the great day."

Ye Qinghuai's attitude was firm, no matter how much the courtiers tried to persuade her, she would not let go.

The court meeting ended amidst the discussions among the crowd.

After coming out from the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the servant of the Ministry of Rites trotted up to Wen Xinzhong, sighed anxiously and said to him: "My lord, what is your majesty's intention? Could it be that you are deliberately embarrassing the Ministry of Rites so that we can wait for you?" Resigned?"

Wen Xinzhong gave him an annoyed sideways glance, with the words "you can't teach a child" written all over his eyes.

"Your Majesty made such a big circle just to dismiss us? What is he planning?"

The servant was puzzled by the question, and said, "Then why does Your Majesty have to schedule the scientific research and the wedding so close together? Isn't it to kill me?"

Wen Xinzhong stopped and looked into the distance, his eyes were full of worry and said: "If this scientific examination is not done well, I will take off this official uniform. Who will arrange the wedding of the emperor and empress?"

He gave his subordinates a meaningful look, and said, "Your Majesty is not embarrassing you and me, but threatening Mr. Gu Ge. Just you and me, do you need His Majesty to take such painstaking efforts to embarrass you?"
