Chapter 239
Jianning Ten Years, March

The territory of the Great Han Dynasty was prosperous and peaceful. Under the leadership of the officials, the people worked hard to cultivate the fields. In this month, the imperial court used Wang Fu's scientific merit test for the first time. There were more than a thousand students who were over [-] years old in the test. They all paid homage to Langzhong, Wang Jialang, county and state literature officials and other officials, and appointed the Quartet. Because of the opposition of the officials, these policy tests have not yet reached the standard that Wang Fu desired.

Just through the recommendation of hundreds of officials, as well as the grades in the Taiyuan Academy, the recommendation of wine offerings, etc., and then after the emperor checked their literary policies, they were appointed. Even if it is so simple, it can be regarded as the implementation of the new system. An important progress, the Tai students were ecstatic, and the old officials of the family were extremely dissatisfied with it. However, the emperor had an edict, and even if they were dissatisfied, they had nothing to do.

They didn't even dare to complain, because Zhang He had already returned to Luoyang, and there were embroidered envoys led by him in Luoyang. These people didn't even dare to complain. The first thing Zhang He did after returning to Luoyang was , that is to arrest a dozen ministers of the court, including Yongchang prefect Cao Luan, eunuch Xu Xun, Guang Luxun Chen Dan, Sili school lieutenant Yuan Ping, these three officials and nine ministers, local prefects, Zhang He No mercy.

The reason for arresting them is also very simple. They once complained about the prince and deliberately separated the father and son of the Tian family. When Yuan Ping was arrested, the entire Yuan family was in turmoil. None of the old officials dared to speak. This only shows that the prestige of the emperor is too high, and these people no longer have the courage to speak.

Only Yuan Feng, who had always been at odds with Yuan Ping and had frequent disputes, cried to the emperor and begged for Yuan Ping's pardon. Later, the dominance of the noble family power in the court was completely broken, and only those who were close to the emperor like Yuan Feng, or those who were as taciturn as Xun Jian, remained.

The major forces in the court are intricate and complicated. How Xiu is the leader of the thief party, that is, the imperial party, but he has always been alone and never gets close to outsiders. Formed an alliance and became the leader of the new party, but the people of the new party hated him a lot. Duan Jiong was a member of the thief party, but he was also the leader of the military.

For example, Lu Zhi, Sun Jian, Dian Wei, Huang Fusong and others are all headed by him, but he is at odds with Lu Zhi. Yuan Feng is an old party member, but he is close to the emperor. Wang Fu still has the kindness of recommending him. Zhang Wen should have He is the leader of the military, but Duan Jiong's military achievements are too high, so he is not compatible with Duan Jiong, but his violent temperament and stern demeanor have won the support of Dong Zhuo and other generals.

Cai Yong is a member of the bandit party, but he takes care of himself alone and is only close to Song Feng on weekdays. There is also the eunuch party headed by Song Dian. Although it seems to have completely declined after the emperor came to power, they still have guards in their hands. He also has good relations with families like the Cao family, and at the same time, the Cao family is also one of the bandits. Such a complicated situation was caused by the emperor alone. Of course, this is the result he most wants to see.

If the courtiers are too harmonious, the emperor is afraid that he will be restless. Like this, he will not fight to the death, but there will be fighting and competition. In spite of the vacancies of low-level officials, the high-level officials are all trusted by the emperor, and the military power is in the hands of the emperor. It took a full ten years for the little fat man to secure his position.

Although the relationship between the DPRK and China is complicated, it is not chaotic. Everyone is dedicated to the Han Dynasty. Although Wang Fu is stunned, he alone has driven the development of the entire south, making the most backward place of the Han Dynasty gradually appear. Different colors, Yangzhou Daxing, after his large-scale shipbuilding, Yangzhou's supplies came and went frequently, and the level of prosperity was even comparable to that of Yanji.

Although Wen Renxi was stingy, but with him sitting in the temple, the emperor basically didn't worry about any financial problems. The canal was also built quickly on the basis he had laid.

The talents emerging from all over the country have enriched the corrupt grassroots officials of the Han Dynasty. The common people are farming, children are studying literature, merchants are constantly traveling at the border, and the emperor stays up late in the study every day. Although he is busy, he is not busy. Feeling tired, because every time he gets tired, he will deliberately pull out some performance tables from various places, look at these auspicious reports, see the prosperity of the big man, the prosperity of the people, and the strengthening of the national power, which will make the little fat man very happy.

Tiredness will disappear without a trace.

Outside the Hongdu School, Cai Yong stared blankly at the pedestrians passing by and saluting him, but he didn't respond at all. He has been standing here like this for half a day. Everyone was a little worried before, but seeing Seeing him frowning and thinking, thinking that he was enlightening to the sages, he was respectful and didn't dare to disturb him, so he stared at Hongdumen without blinking.

At that time, the Hongdu Gate was being repaired and decorated. Craftsmen used brooms to paste lime into characters, and wrote strokes on the wall. Cai Yong was watching this with fascination. These craftsmen were a little restrained when they saw Cai Yong's appearance. They didn't dare to write any more, but Cai Yong told them to continue, so they continued to write until they finished repairing the wall, Cai Yong clapped his hands and laughed loudly.

Originally, he came here to play the "Sage Emperor Chapter" written by the imperial edict, at the gate of Hongdu, but at this time, he seemed to have forgotten about it, and hurriedly returned to his residence, closed the door, and everyone For some reason, after three days, he sent the rewritten "Sage Emperor Chapter" to the palace, and the emperor also rushed there, a little surprised, and hurriedly picked it up to watch.

At first glance, the emperor was shocked. Cai Yong wrote this article without deleting a single character. However, the calligraphy he used was unprecedented. At the end, the horizontal and vertical strokes are silky and white, and the flying brush is broken and white. Creation?"

Cai Yong said with a smile: "A few days ago, I was ordered to go to Hongdu Gate and saw the craftsman's skills. I was deeply inspired, so I created this style of writing."

"Shan, I wonder if there is a name?" the emperor asked.

Cai Yong looked at the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven had some expectation in his eyes, just waiting for him to say no, Cai Yong shook his head helplessly, and said, "I haven't named it yet, I hope your Majesty will inscribe it!"

The emperor laughed happily and said: "Hahaha, this is written like a bird's head and a swallow's tail. The flying brush is broken and white. It is dry and moist. How about calling it a bird's body?"

Cai Yong's face twitched, the Son of Heaven saw that Cai Yong's face turned dark, he smiled awkwardly, and said, "If Mr. Cai doesn't like it, how about calling it Jianning style?"

"Your Majesty's question fits perfectly, thank you. Your Majesty"

In this year, the literary style created by Cai Yong was spread all over the world, and was appreciated and loved by the celebrities and scholars at that time. Everyone imitated it one after another. The emperor was also happy for such a cultural event, except those who were not very happy. That is, people all over the world call this style of writing Feibai style. I have already chosen the name. These traitors really don’t know how to appreciate it!
