Twin Brocade

Chapter 329 B Down?top armor? (third change)

Both of them were among the top figures in the court, and each brought four officials to review the papers.In addition to them, Wu Shangshu also brought a group, and there were other officials, a total of five groups reviewed at the same time.

Otherwise, when will the evaluation of the answer sheets of a hundred Jinshi be completed.

Guan Jinghuan looked at the answer sheet in his hand, and only gave it a "Yixia" and put it aside.Since he is so pessimistic, the officials in his group naturally dare not have other opinions.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Zihou saw it, snatched it with his hands, and crossed out the comment "Yixia" and changed it to "Jiashang".The two clashed over this, and there was a lot of movement.

It is not uncommon for the opinions of the reviewers to differ, but it is not uncommon.At first, everyone ignored it.It's just that Guan Jinghuan's statement of "rebellion and injustice" has caused everyone to look at it.

With Guan Jinghuan's status, he naturally wouldn't lie.Who is so bold?Dare to answer like this in the palace test.

But seeing Zhu Zihou half-closed his eyes, with his hands in his sleeves, he said slowly, "Master Guan, why are you making such alarmist remarks? According to this old man, this is what makes him extraordinary, foresight."

"Such a beautiful article, can't even catch your eyes, Mr. Guan?"

Guan Jinghuan snorted coldly and said, "What good is the article no matter how good it is? The views in it are simply outrageous!"

"That's deafening!" Zhu Zihou said.

The topic of this palace examination involves the existing official system, which is really difficult.But it is also the first case that two people can hold their own opinions like this.

Guan Jinghuan wanted to say more, but Zhu Zihou cupped his hands and said, "Respectfully invite the Holy Judge."

"How can such a sensational article pollute the emperor's hearing? Master Zhu, please think again."

"No problem, bring it up." Emperor Qinglong signaled Wu Guangqi to take it up.

Guan Jinghuan flicked his sleeves and glared at Zhu Zihou with displeasure.Zhu Zihou ignored it and handed the test paper to Wu Guangqi.

Emperor Qinglong glanced at the candidate's name, thought of Huiyuan who had just fallen into a frenzy during the palace examination, said "Huh", and said, "It turned out to be him, no wonder."

Wu Guangqi laid out the answer sheet on the imperial case, and at first he read it at a glance, but the speed of reading became slower and slower.In the end, it took several breaths to finish reading the two columns of words.

It's not that his reading speed is not enough, but that Quan Mo's words and sentences are thought-provoking.

In this answer sheet, he first used a sage's words to solve the problem, and then quoted scriptures and classics, using real examples that happened in history to explain the three directions of "Is the corpse a vegetarian? Would it be better to lack than to overuse? Is it out of date?".

Quan Moxian wrote in the article that these three directions have different answers in different periods.It cannot be generalized, and must be combined with current events for specific analysis.

Then, he changed his style of writing and suddenly became sharp.

He will boldly criticize the current official system inherited from the previous dynasty, and believes that three-thirds of the reasons for the chaos in the previous dynasty should be attributed to the decadent bureaucratic and powerful system.

After the founding of Gaomang, although the waste was removed and the essence was preserved, in order to maintain stability, the old system was basically followed with little change.

Here, Quan Moxian analyzed the pros and cons of this system, and used historical facts to prove that it worked well in the early days of the former dynasty and the world was prosperous.But at the end of the year, the disadvantages became more and more obvious.

The imperial power was divided among aristocratic families and vassal kings, and in the end the decree could not even leave the capital.The royal family had to rely on relatives, eunuchs and others.Knowing that these people have low vision and cause more harm, they can only be reused, just because they will faithfully carry out the imperial family's orders.

Under such a vicious circle, the previous dynasty staggered for decades, changed several emperors, and finally fell apart and collapsed.

In the end, he proposed a method for improvement: first, to divide the power of the prime minister, and to change the Zhengshitang, which currently only drafts and implements edicts, into the Zhengshi Pavilion.There are seven bachelors, each of whom has the right to vote, and the one with the most votes wins when it comes to major events.

The second is to set up a personal guard team that is only loyal to the emperor with reference to the Forbidden Army in the late period of the previous dynasty.Supervise all officials and dignitaries at the top, and observe the various conditions of the people at the bottom.

These two items are a real violation of the existing interests of officials.However, it was in line with Emperor Qinglong's wishes and maintained the imperial power.

For Guan Jinghuan, as Zhu Zihou got older, he was bound to retire.For Zhu Zihou, the position of prime minister was no more important than Emperor Qinglong's will.But for Guan Jinghuan, who is the prime minister, how could he allow the rights that are about to be obtained to be divided like this?
Especially the second one, the imperial guards of the previous dynasty, that is, the emperor's eagle and dog minions, did countless heinous things, the anger of both humans and gods, and the mutilation of loyal and good people.

Guan Jinghuan naturally knew that according to how much Emperor Qinglong valued Quan Moxian, even if this answer sheet was rejected by him, Emperor Qinglong would definitely go up to read it.But he is here, representing the interests of officials, and he is ambitious to compete for the prime minister, so he has to speak out for all officials.

The courtiers could accept Yushitai, but they could not accept an armed guard team that only obeyed the emperor's orders.

It can be said that Quan Moxian put forward such a sharp point of view in the palace examination, which can be described as audacious, openly standing on the opposite side of all civil servants.What Guan Jinghuan couldn't understand was, where did he come from such a bold student as a commoner?
While continuing to mark the next test papers, he thought to himself, going through all the materials of Quan Moxian in his mind.He has been operating in the court for many years, and Quan Moxian won Huiyuan, and his relevant information has long been sent to his desk.

Could it be that Quan Moxian has secretly taken refuge in Guichenghou's Mansion, so he has nothing to fear?
Although it seemed on the surface, Quan Moxian had only been to Guichenghou's Mansion a few times and had not had much contact.But the house that the Quan family is currently living in is temporarily borrowed by the Cui family.

No matter what Guan Jinghuan thought, Emperor Qinglong read Quan Moxian's article, the more he read it, the happier he became.These words and sentences are all in his mind.

Dividing the prime minister's power and forming an armed force that would intimidate all officials, he originally had a hazy idea in his heart.After Quan Moxian's incisive and meticulous elaboration, this idea became clearer.

He will definitely do these two things.It's just that right now, it's not a good time, so we need to figure it out slowly.

This Quan Moxian did not disappoint him.The answer sheets I have seen before, although there are some highlights, but they are not as sharp as his.

As the sun slanted to the west, the "Jia Shang" answer sheets judged by the ministers also came into the hands of Emperor Qinglong.The level of undergraduate subjects is generally higher than that of the last subject in the first emperor's period, and many outstanding students have emerged. There are as many as sixteen students who have obtained "A top" in the palace examination.

Emperor Qinglong waved his hand, let everyone disperse, and drove back to the palace by himself.Wu Guangqi knew what he wanted, and returned to the imperial study with these "top armor" answer sheets.
