Huang Jiu was helpless, she also had a headache with such an old father, who knew that Tu Huangdi, a murderous man in front of outsiders, was an old naughty boy behind his back?

In the twinkling of an eye, more than half a month had passed since the examination of the Gong Yuan, and today was the day when Huang Jiu personally received the students, hundreds of students all stood nervously outside the hall.

When Huang Jiu arrived in the hall, she sat on the dragon chair, and all the officials pretended to be blind to the fact that she was always sitting on the dragon chair.

They all knew well that the princess regent was the emperor's darling and the next princess, so even if they wanted to object, there was nothing they could do now.

All the courtiers have long been afraid of Huang Jiu's rectification, and the disaster relief food incident a while ago is still vivid in their minds. They are all so painful that they can't sleep at night, that is half of the family's food!Now they are angry and can only pretend to be blind.

Huang Jiu's long sleeves waved, "Xuan!"

"Yes! Xuan Xuezi has an audience!"

The eunuch's sharp voice was heard far away.

Feng Baiqi and Feng Danqing looked at each other, and followed the students into the main hall.

Huang Jiu is aloof, even though she is not an empress, she is more imposing than an emperor.

"Grassmen see Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

A hundred students shook the sky in unison. This is Her Royal Highness Princess who changed their destiny. They all came here with a heart of awe of 12.

"Get up! I summoned you today because I want to meet with you. After today, you will have to perform your duties. I hope you will not disappoint me!"

Huang Jiu found two lines of sight in the crowd, which gave her a very friendly feeling.

Following her gaze, there were two young and handsome men, one with handsome features, the other elegant and handsome, all looking at her with complicated eyes.

Doubt flashed across Huang Jiu's eyes, do they know her?
"Students must obey! Absolutely dare not disobey His Highness!"

As soon as the words of the hundred students fell, the faces of the noble officials changed.

They call themselves students, which means that they are determined to rely on the big tree of the princess, and there is no room for change.

If these 100 people are all under the command of the princess, their gentry will really have no hope of turning over!

Huang Jiu didn't care what these gentry officials thought, she was in a good mood now.

"Okay! Han Yue, give them their letter of appointment!"

She received these one hundred students today, whether it was to see them, she even arranged their official positions.

"Yes!" Han Yue waved, and the chief supervisor brought a dozen or so young eunuchs to the main hall with hundreds of letters of appointment.

"Your Highness! This is not appropriate at all! Officials at all levels are appointed by their superiors, and they are recommended by their superiors. If you do this, you are breaking the rules!"

An old official couldn't stand Huang Jiu's autocracy, so he trembled slightly to dissuade her.

If things go on like this, their gentry will really have no place to stand!

Huang Jiu waved her hand to let the chief inspector continue to distribute the appointment edict, watching the elders of the three dynasties slowly walk down the steps in front of her, there seemed to be a spark in her eyes, "Mr. ! Don’t you see the current situation clearly? You are also from the gentry, and all the officials here are from the gentry, why do you think this is the case?”

The entire Xiling officials are all from the gentry. Is this world the Xiling royal family's world, or the gentry's world?

The birth of her father has always been criticized by these gentry officials, who think that the daughters of Lingyu Kingdom are not qualified to inherit the throne of Xiling. It will not be his turn to sit on the throne.

During these years when his father established a crown prince, most of the officials secretly took refuge in the White Queen, wanting to support the crown prince to succeed to the throne as soon as possible, but due to his father's brutal methods, they dared not support the crown prince openly.

If it wasn't for her father's means to suppress these officials these years, I am afraid that her father's death may not be certain.

Huang Jiu looked at Elder Chen Gel, they were deeply dissatisfied with the sudden appearance of Her Highness the Princess, and now at the last moment, they were afraid of death to prevent her from appointing a poor family member as an official.

Old Chen Ge's eyes unconsciously met Shang Huang Jiu, and determination flashed in his wise eyes, "Your Highness, you are just saying that the whole court is full of gentry, and you are worried that our gentry will rebel, right? Veteran, I can tell you here No! At the beginning of the founding of Xiling, the gentry made an agreement with the royal family. The gentry assisted the royal family and would never betray it! Your Royal Highness, what you are doing now is breaking your original oath!"

Huang Jiu smiled, with emotions that others could not understand, "Mr. Chen Ge, are you saying this as a way of repaying your kindness? In the early days of the founding of the Xiling Kingdom, it was the ancestors of your gentry who helped the royal family. , and the royal family also honored your gentry, isn’t that enough? Under the guise of being benefactors of the royal family, you have collected a lot of people’s fat and anointing, and enclosed the land for your own use! You have put the entire Xiling people’s lives at risk! Still under your suppression Now, a class stratification such as the gentry and the poor has been formed! Do you think this is right?"

"Not only that, you gentry are not allowed to be officials from poor families, and you are not allowed to go to good colleges from poor families! Don't think about it, when your gentry helped the royal family back then, it was just the businessman you look down on most now! Just because you are businessmen , money and food, this helped the royal army through a crisis! What is the difference between you and the poor family now!"

"Mr. Chen Ge, I think you are not young, and I have never felt sorry for you! You should also know how to take care of yourself! Don't you understand what is going on with your gentry now? Are you still thinking of occupying the court?"

Huang Jiu was burning with anger, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she waved her sleeves, "Look at your faces now, you're in a daze when the interests of the gentry are moved, and you only count your little interests, have you ever thought about it, You gentry also have a time when you are at the end of your life?"

"You are getting old, it's time to give up your position to those ambitious young people! Since you don't like everything in the court, I grant you permission to retire and return to your hometown!"

Kneeling in the hall, they don't want to tell their old age and return home at all!

Most of today's gentry disciples are mediocre, otherwise how could they be supported by old guys like them?

If they really stayed away from the court, the gentry would really be over!

After hearing her words, Mr. Chen Ge also understood that the situation of the gentry is over now, and it is meaningless to stop him. He took off his official hat and knelt tremblingly. ! Even if the old minister dies, he can rest in peace!"

It's not that they can't see the disadvantages of Xiling today, it's just for the benefit of the gentry, they have to stick to it!
