The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 485 The Beginning of the Storm

Li Yunze's great ambition deeply moved Li Bai's heart.

Li Bai, who was already similar to an angry youth in character, immediately patted his chest and promised that he would go through fire and water to realize Li Yunze's ideal.

He said so, and he did so.

Before the imperial examination was over, Li Bai took the initiative to find those friends who had participated in the imperial examination, and vigorously persuaded them to work for Li Yunze.

To be honest, if it's just an ordinary prince, it's really hard to attract too many talents.

After all, Li Sanlang has thirty sons alone!
Fortunately, Li Yunze's market has been good recently. The famous officials who often deal with the rich and powerful also vaguely know that Li Yunze has the appearance of staying in the East Palace, so many people still agree to choose to invest in this potential stock.

Of course, the main energy of many famous officials at this time is still on the imperial examination, which has already finished waiting for the results.

After much anticipation, finally came the day to release the list.

Du Fu, who was slightly thin, paced back and forth on the street outside the Gongyuan, with a serious expression on his face.

Du Fu, who is only 24 years old this year, is in a very complicated mood at this time.

Because the examiner is He Zhizhang, he originally planned to write some plain and elegant articles and poems to cater to the examiner.

However, after seeing many dark things in the examination room, it was difficult to control the anger in my heart, so I simply wrote a book to criticize the current problems, and the writing was very carefree.

It's just that after I handed in the paper, my mind calmed down, but I regretted it.

He is not stupid, and he knows very well that what he wrote does not conform to the current fashion trend, and it is very likely that it will be brushed off directly.

In that case, there is no chance of even handing it to King Shou.

Because of this, he was restless and unbearably anxious, waiting here with his last ray of hope.

Similar to Du Fu, there are hundreds of candidates around him.

Even those descendants of noble families showed nervous expressions on their faces.

After all, Shou Wang was in charge of the selection this time. Although everyone gave gifts to Xingjuan, there were so many people vying for a few or at most a dozen positions, the competition was really too great.

With great competition, it will naturally bring pressure.

And those candidates who were not from noble families were even more nervous.

According to the usual practice, in previous years, one or two places of commoner origin would be given out, but in the last imperial examination, even these places were taken away.

Compared with those descendants of noble families, they are naturally more nervous and anxious, fearing that the longevity king will continue the tradition and will not give them a place.

Even Wang Zhihuan and Meng Haoran, who were veterans of the scientific examination, were extremely nervous at this time.

While everyone was waiting anxiously, the door of the Gongyuan was finally opened.

Holding a document tied with a ribbon in his hand, the clerk walked out with his head held high.

Seeing this scene, everyone who was waiting anxiously outside rushed forward in unison and immediately surrounded the scribe.

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze! What's the use of squeezing me? Whether you will be admitted or not has already been determined."

After all the talk, everyone finally calmed down a little, surrounded the scribe and posted the document in their hands on the wooden board.

"Hahahaha~~~~"

"I got it! I got it! I really got it!"

"There is me, there is really me~~~"

"This is my name, see! This is my name!"

"Woooooo~~~ The old man has finally passed the exam, woooo~~~"

"Brother Haoran, congratulations."

"Brother Ji Ling, we are happy together."

"."

All of a sudden, cheers were heard all around the wooden board notice.

Du Fu, who struggled to squeeze through the crowd, finally came to the wooden board, and carefully looked at the names on the wooden board with anxiety.

Then, I saw a line of words 'Gong County Du Fu.'

He didn't read on from the back, and there was only one thought left in his mind 'I got hit?Really hit?What kind of stuff can you write? ! '

After the initial excitement and excitement gradually dissipated, everyone who came back to their senses gradually realized that something was wrong.

"Everyone, everyone!"

A scholar raised his arms and shouted, "Everyone, is there anyone who missed?"

Everyone looked at each other, but no one responded.

The man shouted, "Everyone, who has passed high school?"

Hundreds of people raised their arms almost in unison.

Now, everyone was dumbfounded.

This, this, this damn, as long as you come to take the exam, all of them will be selected for admission? !

The 98 people who participated in the imperial examination this time were all selected as Jinshi and admitted to the imperial examination. The news swept the entire Tang Dynasty like a hurricane.

When it comes to imperial examinations in the past, everyone's first impression is that it is too difficult. It is common to select three or five candidates for one subject, and there are even one or two candidates.

Now, hundreds of people have been selected in one go, which is really too exaggerated.

Regarding this matter, most people's thinking is that Shou Wang is young and ignorant, and loves talents, so they are all chosen.

Even Li Sanlang, who heard the news, thought so.

In Gao Lishi's words, "Your Majesty learned about this matter, and he just said something nonsense." '

However, Prince Li Ying lacked excellent counselors around him, so he actually thought this was a good opportunity, and directly mentioned the matter in court, not only to make Shou Wang come back immediately to admit his mistakes, but also to cancel all the Jinshi selected by him Qualification re-examination.

As soon as this remark came out, Li Linfu immediately lowered his head, suppressing the smile on the corner of his mouth.

But Zhang Jiuling was dumbfounded, and the wat board in his hand almost fell to the ground.

Prince Li Ying, do you know what you are talking about here? !
Li Sanlang didn't change his expression, but there was a flash of disgust in his eyes.

'So stupid, how can he be the crown prince of a country? '

All the officials in the court naturally looked sideways at him.

The reason for this is very simple, just look at the origins of those admitted Jinshi.

Except for a small number of people, most of the selected Jinshi are from noble families!

Even, many of their relatives are standing in this hall!
Li Ying would disqualify them from becoming officials as soon as his lips touched his lips. That is to offend half of the court and half of the noble families in the Tang Dynasty with one sentence.

Prince Li Ying didn't think about these things, and only thought about taking this opportunity to blow Li Yunze's prestige.

But he didn't expect that the 40-meter-long sword he threw directly accidentally injured a force that could not be offended.

Even Li Sanlang couldn't offend so many noble families at once.

"Since the imperial court selects scholars, there is no reason to cancel them after being selected." Li Sanlang said to end this farce, "But Shibalang has chosen so many, and it is indeed against the rules. All the selected Jinshi will become officials, Shibalang called If he comes back, that's it.

"

Naturally, everyone had no objection, and Qi Qiying claimed that it was true, and it was considered to have exposed this matter.

But the impact of this incident cannot be dissipated.

The most important thing is that many people expressed their disappointment with Crown Prince Li Ying, especially those families who were admitted to Jinshi, and they even regarded him as ignorant of the rules.

On the contrary, he was grateful to Li Yunze who had selected everyone, and felt that King Shou was easy to talk to, and he was willing to share the benefits for everyone to enjoy.

Li Yunze, who was far away in Luoyang, didn't know that Li Ying did such a silly thing, and he was constantly hosting banquets for the Jinshi selected by him.

Regardless of Jinshi's background, Li Yunze at least treats them equally on the surface, and has the intention of wooing everyone.

In Tang Dynasty, there was no such thing as a tutor, what Li Yunze had to do was to shape himself as the tutor of the new scholars.

Among the 98 Jinshi, many of them are older repeat students who take the scientific examination all the year round.

Their wish for many years was finally fulfilled. They respected Li Yunze who chose them, and the atmosphere of the banquet was naturally very harmonious.

According to the rules of the Tang Dynasty, Entrance Scholars need to observe politics for a period of three years, that is, the internship period, before they will be assigned specific tasks.

For the new scholars, Li Yunze talked to them one by one, and recommended them to practice in different government offices according to their personal ideals, which received rave reviews.

Among them, Li Yunze invited Du Fu to be the Supervisor of the Shou Palace, Wang Zhihuan to be the Prime Minister of the Shou Palace, Meng Haoran to be the Lieutenant of the Shou Palace, and Gao Shi to be the Farmer of the Shou Palace.

Several people did not refuse, and they accepted Li Yunze's invitation, which means they entered the official position directly.

From here, it shows that it is only the lack of the prince's status, there are too many talents, but there are not many positions in hand.

Originally, the Prince's Mansion still had the positions of Dianjun and Deputy Dianjun, but this position was reserved for Li Siye and others.

Li Yunze wanted to do big things, so he needed more people to help.

But the strength in his hands is insufficient, so he can only temporarily connect with everyone.

Now, he already urgently needs to get the position of the East Palace.

When Li Sanlang's intention to invite him to return to Chang'an City arrived, packed up and set off with Princess Xianyi and his wife, and returned to Chang'an City with many new scholars, the time had already come to the spring of the 25th year of Kaiyuan.

During this period of time, many things happened in Datang.

Among them, the one that attracted Li Yunze's attention was that General An Lushan of Pinglu lost the battle and was ordered to be executed according to the law, but he was pardoned by Li Sanlang and came into Li Sanlang's sight.

If there is no accident, according to the historical route, he will flourish in a short period of time, from a miscellaneous man who can't tell his origin, all the way to become the Jiedushi of the Three Towns.

In addition, Shi Zugan, who tricked Xi Ren into winning the Connaught War, also came into Li Sanlang's sight.

Because of his deeds, Li Sanlang, who was in a good mood, even gave Shi Zugan the name Siming, and embarked on the road to prosperity.

Other than that, the most important thing is Zhang Jiuling's loss of power.

In his later years, Li Sanlang was very suspicious, especially he was very wary of the powerful prime minister.

When he took power, he replaced more than 30 prime ministers, and his main strategy was to replace them regularly.

Zhang Jiuling is very capable and upright, but it is because of his integrity that he has repeatedly advised Li Sanlang, telling him not to be so extravagant, not to use the villain so much, and not to be so...
Moreover, he has always supported Prince Li Ying, which violated Li Sanlang's taboo.

When Li Yunze finally returned to Chang'an City, a storm against Zhang Jiuling and the prince had gradually taken shape.
