System, help me become the empress

Chapter 36 The New Emperor is Unfathomable
"Your Majesty, forgive me, I was almost deceived by others for my dereliction of duty, and I almost wronged Master Li!" Lin Hong kowtowed violently, and blood was already on his forehead after a few strokes, "I am sorry, I would like to resign from the position of Minister of Dali Temple, From now on, I will never ask about the government again!"

……

"Your Majesty is guilty, I beg Your Majesty to allow you to hand over all your property to the national treasury, and I am willing to be a tomb keeper for the rest of your life to atone for your sins." Lin Hong could no longer care about anything in order to save his life.

"Unexpectedly, Lord Lin is so determined that he is willing to sacrifice his official career to serve his ancestors. I am moved by it, so I will do as you say." Xu Youxi decided to let Lin Hong go for now, considering Lin Hong's sincerity. Maybe it will be useful in the future.

"Dali Temple Minister Lin Hong resigns, and someone has to make up for it. From now on, Li Shangyun will be transferred to Dali Temple Minister, and the official residence is the third grade." Xu Youxi dictated the transfer order, and the eunuch holding the pen beside him immediately wrote quickly, without rushing, "In the 19th year of Chongjiu, I met Mr. Li once in Jiangnan. At that time, Mr. Li resisted all opinions, and I always remembered the word 'judgment' from the prefect of Jiangnan."

When Xu Youxi told the past, he not only explained to the officials why he defended Li Shangyun, but also expressed his attitude. Li Shangyun is the Minister of Dali Temple bestowed by me, and the emperor stands behind him.

Li Shangyun had a sudden epiphany and looked up at the saint. He remembered that in the 19th year of Chongjiu, before he called for the sentence, a child scolded the magistrate in the south of the Yangtze River for being unworthy of being a human being. The determination to kill the Jiangnan magistrate.

He originally thought that he would be hated by several dignitaries in the court because of this matter, but no one thought that not only was he not affected, but he was steadily serving as the governor of Jiangnan for eight years.

At one time, someone in the court speculated that there might be someone of high authority standing behind him, but now it seemed that it was the young Princess Tianyou!
……

"If you have something to play, leave the court if you have nothing to do." The eunuch's sharp voice pierced the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

All the officials knelt down and saluted, and Xu Youxi left the hall.

Li Shangyun froze in place for a long time, surrounded by familiar faces who greeted him with smiles and congratulated him on his promotion.

Even when Bao Changnian passed by Li Shangyun's side, he couldn't help saying in a low voice: "Congratulations Li Siqing."

Meng Zhiqian also smiled at Li Shangyun, and left in the opposite way to Bao Changnian.

"Shang Yun, how long are you going to stand here?" Miao Wenzheng, the left governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, patted Li Shangyun on the shoulder.

"Teacher." Li Shangyun's expression was still in a trance.

Miao Wenzheng led Li Shangyun to a place where there were few people: "Shang Yun, since His Majesty appointed you as the Minister of Dali Temple, it is also your good fortune. I always thought that you are talented, but your character is not smooth enough, and your official career is destined to be bumpy."

"The disciple has tasted the suffering of the world, and I just want to have a clear conscience."

"Forget it, I won't persuade you anymore." Miao Wenzheng looked up at the sky, "You are so stubborn, and you have the new emperor as your backer, so it is perfect to enter Dali Temple."

"Shang Yun, you and I are mentors and apprentices. In the future, we will have different positions. If there is a conflict, there is no need to miss my old love. This is also the last time I will find you for a personal matter. Remember me, the new emperor...she is unfathomable .”

Li Shangyun opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, everything seemed to be in silence.

Perhaps, only old fellows like Miao Wenzheng, who are well versed in the ways of the imperial court, may be the ones who feel the deepest about the new emperor.Through the events that happened several times before, it is not difficult for them to see that although the new emperor is young, he is brave and resourceful.I thought that in the coming days, these old guys might compete with the new emperor in court for a while.

However, in fact, let alone the atmosphere of confrontation and tension, the new emperor didn't even give them a chance to speak.

In the first early court, Dali Siqing was dismissed and replaced by a more suitable Li Shangyun.It stands to reason that Fu Youxing contributed the most to this matter, but the new emperor just turned a blind eye to it, and there is a lot of knowledge in it. Could it be that she has already seen that Fu Youxing is only a strong outsider, and can't be used for much?

at the same time.

A court official walked quickly to Bao Shoufu's side, and asked tentatively: "Shoufu, do you think what the new emperor said just now needs to be thoroughly investigated..."

"Your majesty's matter, how can you speak indiscriminately. Always pay attention to your words and deeds. If something happens, no one can protect you!" Bao Changnian frowned all the time, and his tone was particularly aggressive.

The officials traveling with Meng Zhiqian happened to ask the same question.

Meng Zhiqian's eyes dimmed: "Your Majesty... is the blessing of Daqian."

Xu Youxi got off the morning court, and immediately went down again: "Eunuch Zhou, go back and rest. After waking up, go and urge those returned memorials to be presented again."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhou Huixue was flattered.

Xu Youxi was going to sleep for a while when she returned to Tianyou Palace. Before she fell asleep, she was still thinking about how to reform.

It is said that the economic base determines the superstructure, and her first step is to fill the treasury first.Apart from the method of increasing taxes, copying the houses of corrupt officials comes quickly.She also wants to promote the industrial revolution, revolution, whose life will be revolutionized...

Xu Youxi gradually fell asleep.

The dream is also messy.

For a while, Emperor Chongjiu said with a bitter face that he didn't want to approve the memorial; Xie Xixi would come out from time to time and cry and ask her why she didn't save your brother; she also dreamed about that timid and shy brother who always followed behind his mother.

After waking up from the dream, Xu Youxi was already sweating all over. It was raining outside and it was getting dark. Xu Youxi was a little hungry, so he ate some cakes on the table to pad his stomach.

Xu Youxi changed her clothes resignedly, she was not used to being served by maids of honor, she usually did it by herself.

After eating, continue to review memorials after eating.

fall.

If you can only criticize memorials every day, then it doesn't matter if you are an emperor!
When Xu Youxi returned to her study and planned to continue reading the memorials, most of the memorials she hadn't had time to review had a note in the middle.

Xu Youxi randomly picked out a memorial, and the note inside simply wrote: Si Haizhou has heavy snow, and the harvest will be good in the coming year.

This note is actually a summary of the content of the memorial!

"Eunuch Zhou sent someone to do it?" Xu Youxi asked immediately after seeing that Zhou Huixue was already waiting outside the study.

"Your Majesty forgives the crime, but I make the decision without authorization."

"That's right, very good. In the future, let officials also learn how to submit memorials like this." Xu Youxi was full of praise. Zhou Huixue was indeed a eunuch who could do the palm seal of the Chief of Rites, and he was indeed very reliable.

With the assistance of the supervisor of ceremonies, Xu Youxi's reading speed of the memorial has increased countless times, and he completed the memorial volume of yesterday's whole night in an hour.

"Eunuch Zhou, I remember that this year's test is about to start?" Xu Youxi was reminded by a memorial.

The Dagan imperial examination is divided into four levels, the children's examination, the township examination, the general examination and the palace examination.

"The general examination is usually held in February of the beginning of spring every year, but this year due to the impact of the Oirat War, the Ministry of Rites has not yet finalized the specific date."

Xu Youxi is quite interested in the 'Imperial Examination': "Inform the Ministry of Rites for me that I will personally add an additional question to this year's general examination. The topic is 'On the Wealth of Nations', and the answer is limited to characters."

"This...His Royal Highness, the test time has not yet been set, what if someone misses the test in advance?"

"No problem. For some questions, even if you miss a question, there may not be an answer."

　See you next year ^o^
