Sister, stay away from me!

Chapter 239 Too Despicable

Chapter 239 Too Despicable
When Wang Huai and Ye Hongwen were sorting out the plan, the imperial court had already turned upside down.

For the emperor, the harem has nothing to do with love, but politics.

Every noble concubine symbolizes a faction of power. They compete for each other in the court, and the harem is the extension and supplement of the power competition of all parties.

The fact that Wang Huai sent all the concubines to the cold palace naturally caused an uproar.

The excerpts fell like a torrential rain, and each faction sent its own spokesperson to start talking about this matter.

In these excerpts, the instigator, Wang Huai, has been described as a rebellious traitor, a secret agent sent by Northern Xinjiang, a thief who will bring disaster to the country and the people, and a villain who is not enough to anger the people if he does not kill.

After the start of the morning dynasty, just as Sun Yu allowed everyone to speak, a group of vanguards began to speak out one after another, saying that this matter violated the ancestral precepts and was the starting point of defeat.

This is only the first step.

If Sun Yu does not make certain compromises and compensations, then the relevant forces will start the second step, using the way of obedience and injustice to confront the emperor.

The previous restructuring has moved many people's cakes. The monks of Zhenguosi sent by the Xianmeng to the localities have begun to monitor the hearts of the people in various places, which has restrained some family forces a lot.

Many people who committed the most heinous crimes have been executed, and their heads were embalmed with lime and sent back to their hometowns, where they were hung on the city walls as decorations.

The crimes were also posted, which raised the hearts of people everywhere by [-]%.

Knowing that someone is supervising him, the local tyrants naturally restrained themselves a lot, and did not dare to go too far in plundering the people.

This resentment accumulated a lot, and finally broke out completely this time, rushing towards Sun Yu.

Looking at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty who were filled with righteous indignation, Sun Yu smiled wryly.

It started so soon.

Restructuring is only the first step, after which the fiefs will be slowly taken back, the families of all parties will be contained, and the powerful will be suppressed. Every step will face great resistance.

The reform of the harem is only a small step, and this group of people is just taking this opportunity to see where their bottom line is.

The way of the monarch and ministers is complex and changeable, but it is nothing more than money and power.

Children who can bark have sweets to eat, and these courtiers may not be pushed to the limit, but they have to come out and bark twice to protect their own interests.

If he retreats now, it will be more difficult to advance things afterwards, and he will leave less space for Sun Luming.

When the group of people had almost quarreled, Sun Yu said: "I can see that you are not opposed to the reform of the harem, you are clearly opposed to the reform."

"I dare not!"

"Do you dare to do it or not? Say it out loud, and I won't cut off your heads."

"The ministers are absolutely indifferent!"

Looking at the civil and military officials who bowed their heads, Sun Yu suddenly felt a little headache.

This group of people are their own courtiers on the surface, but most of them have contacts with various aristocratic families in private, and their buttocks have long been crooked.

All of them are dignified, talking about serving the country and the people, but in private they are doing money and power, and each one is just a puppet of various factions.

If it was really for Da Zhou, at this time, it should be thinking about helping myself to clear my mind and appease the aristocratic family, instead of objecting at the beginning.

With a long sigh, he said to everyone: "Let's retreat first, let me think twice, and give an answer tomorrow."

After retiring from the court, Sun Yu pondered for a long time on the throne, and finally changed into ordinary clothes and came to the East Palace.

After a day of absence, the place has changed again.

Ye Hongwen used his connections to invite several Confucian scholars to start compiling textbooks and teaching concubines.

The current concubines must pass the exam to advance to the next rank. Every concubine starts from the seventh-rank imperial daughter, and can be promoted to the next rank after passing the exam.

The highest position is the ninth concubine, which is equivalent to the second rank, and there are queens and four noble concubines on it. They need to go through arduous and difficult exams to finally get it.

You can also obtain other certificates in the middle, and each certificate is worth a different score, so that concubines can better use their strengths.

Because the test results were related to their own treatment, the concubines instantly rolled up.

All the dirty little tricks before were put aside, and almost all the concubines began to study hard, preparing to get a good ranking.

It doesn't matter if you don't want to learn, leave the cold palace, and then be a seventh-rank maiden for the rest of your life.

Since she is a concubine, what she learns is naturally not the Four Books and Five Classics, but various strategies for governing the country, common sense of geography, etc., all of which require special textbooks.

Looking at the completely new harem, Sun Yu nodded.

Good.

In all dynasties, the selection of Dharma Protectors is a difficult problem. If the selected Dharma Protectors are not useful, then it is better not to have them.

Using this method to choose a concubine, on the one hand, it distracts the other party's extra attention, and on the other hand, it can also make the night more romantic, so that the people next to me will not understand what I say.

Turning the competition between concubines into an exam will definitely encounter some problems later, but no system is perfect, and it will be corrected slowly when the time comes.

After finding Wang Huai, Sun Yu saw that Wang Huai was discussing matters with Ye Hongwen, and none of the senior sisters were there.

The two were so focused on discussing that they didn't even notice that Sun Yu had arrived, and it wasn't until half an hour later that they realized that there was one more person here.

After the two noticed him and bowed their hands together, Sun Yu said, "Don't worry, I'm just looking around."

"Then you're free." Ye Hongwen scratched his armpit and said.

"Lao Ye, give the emperor some face, don't say it."

"I can tell, Wang Huai, you are the one who doesn't give me face the most." Sun Yu pointed at Wang Huai and said with a smile.

After making a joke, Sun Yu asked, "Wang Huai, where are your senior sisters?"

"There was a quarrel last night. The focus of the issue was whether Zishi was a continuation of the first day or the second day. Because of this issue, they almost got into a fight."

"How did it work out in the end?"

"One person throws a paper, and whoever gets the highest score will be rewarded."

"wonderful."

After drinking another cup of tea, Sun Yu shared what he had seen and heard in the court today, then looked at the two of them and asked, "Do you have any good suggestions?"

"Kill." Ye Hongwen said without hesitation, "This group of officials formed a clique for personal gain and fought against the imperial court. There is absolutely nothing wrong with killing them one by one."

The Confucian sect attaches to the imperial power, regards the emperor as the most precious, and the powerful families who hinder the idea of ​​the supremacy of the imperial power are all rebels, and everyone can be killed.

After killing all of them, the new Confucian disciples will have the opportunity to enter the power center and further serve the imperial power.

This is the survival philosophy of Confucianism. Even Ye Hongwen, a mad student, will rely on this basic point to think about problems.

Sun Yu nodded.

He also thought about this method, but it was too cruel and could only be used when there was nothing to do.

After all, this is an extraordinary world, the mighty power belongs to itself, and there are fairy alliances, magic gates and Buddhist gates behind it, so killing the past can be successful.

But Wang Huai thought for a while, and said to Sun Yu: "Give them some benefits."

"Compromise? Wang Huai, this is not like you."

"There is also a way to compromise. After compromising, let the other party stand on your side. That is the best."

Sun Yu was clearly interested, and after sitting upright, he looked at Wang Huai and asked, "For example?"

"Let's release part of the dragon spirit to the officials. Change the dragon spirit and turn it into an official spirit. The official spirit of each rank of official is different. It depends on how much the people's spirit has improved during the tenure. After the promotion is qualified, it will be reviewed. Only after there are no problems can it be promoted."

Sun Yu thought for a moment, and then asked, "What can official air do?"

"Find a special person to think about the arrangement, at least there must be some effects such as beauty and longevity, which should be able to be achieved by dragon energy."

"It can be."

Sun Yu stood up and began to think along this train of thought. The more he thought about it, the more interesting he became.

If the improvement of popular sentiment is taken as a hard indicator for official assessment, then if the other party wants to climb up, they must constantly improve the popular sentiment of the jurisdiction.

After the people's morale is improved, part of it will be rewarded as officials after promotion, and the other part will be attributed to Da Zhou. Overall, Da Zhou has made a lot of money.

As long as officials want to climb up, they must improve the morale of the people and force them to focus on the people.

Then let the Xianmeng help supervise, it can form an effective restriction, so that some black sheep have nowhere to hide.

Moreover, the dragon spirit comes from the imperial dynasty, which will also force the bureaucrats to move closer to the imperial power and deepen the influence of the imperial power.

The beauty gained from practice is much better than real money.

With this thing as a temptation, the officials in the imperial court need to consider whether to continue to be the spokesperson of various forces, or to completely attach themselves to the imperial power.

You play conspiracy, I will play Yang conspiracy, release this thing clearly, and see who this group of people is with.

Sun Yu began to conceive plans continuously in his mind, constructing different strategies for civil servants and military officials, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

"Thank you, Wang Huai, this is a good idea, I have to go back and discuss it."

"Respectfully sent you off, by the way, you must seek other people's opinions at that time, and it would be better for them to see you alone. Moreover, people's hearts don't need to be regarded as a system at the beginning, and it is better to accept it as a reward."

Sun Yu thought for a moment, then nodded appreciatively.

A master is still a master.

Back at the Golden Luan Hall, Sun Yu summoned his trustworthy and powerful courtiers and began to discuss the plan, but he did not go to court for several days.

When he finally came to the court, Sun Yu did not let the ministers enter the palace directly, but let the ministers wait outside, and then called them in one by one.

There is only Sun Yu on the throne and an accompanying historian in the hall. The huge hall is now completely silent. Everyone here feels incomparably small, while the Son of Heaven in front of him is like a god, exuding a majestic and inviolable aura .

Because they entered alone, everyone had to face the coercion of the emperor alone, and those who could not stutter were considered courageous.

Everyone called in was asked two questions.

What do you think of the restructuring of the Zhenguo Division?
What do you think of the harem reform?
And unable to communicate with others, each minister is now faced with a prisoner's dilemma.

What if you are against it and others are in favor?
Now that there is a historian present, every word and deed of myself will be recorded. When the reform continues, then I will hate the emperor.

But if you agree, if you spread the word and be known by the forces that support you, you may not be able to please it at that time.

After thinking about it, the minister finally bowed his head: "All ministers object. I think..."

Bite the bullet, he expressed all his opinions on behalf of the family behind him.

I thought the emperor would be furious after speaking, but I didn't expect the emperor just nodded, and then said: "Understood, let's take a rest in the side hall. Pass it on to the next person."

The minister was immediately taken into the side hall and entered a separate room to rest.

This special face-to-face ceremony is kept on until the lights are turned on.

After the last person was asked, Sun Yu called everyone together, and said with a smile: "I already know your opinions. There are those who agree with you and those who disagree, and what you say is very good. They are all pillars of the country. It's a pity that the opinions have not yet been unified, and we will come again in seven days."

After praising them, Sun Yu ordered ten ministers to come out, and then stretched out his hand, and immediately blessed the ten people with the modified Dragon Qi, which had been restricted in many magical functions.

Although there are many restrictions, after being blessed by the dragon energy, the ten people suddenly felt that the old stubbornness disappeared, and their sore lower backs felt refreshed.

One of the officials had a hunchback all the year round, but under the blessing of Long Qi, he lost his crutches and straightened his back.

"The speeches of the ten of you are deep in my heart. This dragon aura is your reward. In the past, the rewards in the palace were always vulgar things like gold, silver and cloth. In the future, we will change the method and use dragon aura as rewards. After that, everyone will also You will get different dragon energy as an extra salary, this is my reward for you, no one will have any objections."

"I dare not."

The civil and military officials replied while looking at their colleagues who seemed to be more than ten years younger, with envy in their eyes.

After retiring from the court, the emperor had just left, and all the officials surrounded ten people in the middle, congratulating them constantly.

One of the ministers looked at his colleague whose hair roots were starting to turn black, and asked sourly: "Congratulations Wei Shilang, I didn't expect that agreeing to the emperor's reform would have such benefits."

The minister surnamed Wei looked at each other blankly: "No, I objected. Maybe I have a good reason. The emperor will be interested."

"Really? Then Master Wei's eloquence is really good."

No matter how stupid Wei Shilang is, he can still hear the meaning in the other party's words, and his face suddenly changed: "Fang Shilang, what do you mean?"

"It's nothing interesting, just congratulations. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave first."

The others also said goodbye one after another, and the more they thought about it, the angrier they got.

We clearly made an appointment to boycott the restructuring, and everyone advances and retreats together, why did you rebel!

Let's fight against the scapegoat, and you take advantage of it, isn't that plausible!

So despicable!

Looking at the gold and silver sent by the family members, and thinking about the colleagues who were ten years younger on the spot, this group of people suddenly felt dull.

Everything is good, not as good as your own body.

Thinking of this, many people slowly began to think carefully, and then they stayed behind closed doors and began to think about their speeches in the next interview.

In the Golden Luan Hall, Sun Yu was flipping through today's records.

While flipping through, he smiled.

There are 45 people in court today, and only five of them agreed to change the system.

These five people support him steadfastly, and if they are chosen to bless the Dragon Qi, the others will naturally understand that they are rewarding those who agree.

The other five were centrists. Although they all opposed it, Sun Yu still selected them as a means to divide the officials.

It is good to see the supporters, and the next morning, there will be no such people who agree.

Differentiate with dragon spirit, and then pave the way for official spirit, which can be said to be a double win.

"Despicable." Sun Yu said with a satisfied smile.

I don't know if he is talking about himself or Wang Huai.
