Chapter 37 The Military Merit System Is Really Exquisite
As soon as dusk arrived, all the students handed in their papers and went home.

After three days, the results of the palace examination will be announced at the gate of the palace.

Jiang Zhao and Simu Bai were walking together on the road in the palace when the sun was setting.

The orange-red sunlight shines on the red walls and yellow tiles, making it dazzling.

The two walked slowly, admiring the scenery in the palace, the setting sun stretched their shadows very long.

"It seems that the slow-paced life in ancient times is also good, suitable for taking care of the rest of the world."

Jiang Zhao said comfortably.

"My dear brother is only 16 years old now, and he is not weak yet. He just wants to take care of his life. Shouldn't he find a good cemetery for himself in his ten years?"

Si Mubai joked.

For some reason, Jiang Zhao would sometimes say something old-fashioned and out of line with her age.

"Brother Mubai will help you find a piece of graveyard when you are looking for it, so that you don't have to look for the cemetery yourself when you get old."

Jiang Zhao smiled.

"Brother, I heard that His Majesty gave you a letter. Since the founding of the Tianyu Dynasty, you are the only person from a poor family who was given a letter by His Majesty."

Si Mubai did not answer the conversation jokingly, but asked about the gift of words.

"That's right, His Majesty bestowed the word Tianran on Brother Yu."

She still doesn't know why the emperor gave her the word Tianran?

"Tianran? That's right, in the future Brother Yu can directly call Brother Xian by his name."

The two talked and laughed all the way, not even noticing that a pair of eyes full of ferocious expressions behind the two of them were staring at them.

Jiang Zhao and Simu Bai strolled home. Before they got home, the sun was setting and the sky was pitch black.

There are no thousands of lights in the modern city here, but there is a particularly clean night and starry sky.

In modern times, due to light pollution and other kinds of pollution, stars are rarely seen in the sky. Sometimes when we look up, we can only see a few sporadic points.

Unlike here, you can still see the Milky Way.

When the two returned home, Wei Xiang and Jiu Qi were already waiting at the door.

"Master."

The two called out in unison.

Jiang Zhao nodded, and when she returned home, the nanny had already prepared food.

In the palace, the emperor was still reviewing papers with several ministers.

After the examinees had left, Prime Minister Du Yuan cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, can I show Jiang Zhao's examination paper to the minister for a while."

The emperor waved his hand, and Wei Chengyun, who was waiting on the side, immediately understood, and carefully picked up the examination paper on his desk.

This was the examination paper that the emperor liked, and he dared not damage it in any way.

Du Yuan took it, and reviewed the papers together with Grand Tutor Jiang Ding and Guozijian Jijiu Zhao Dang.

They are all readers, and their talents have already been acquired, with more than two hundred characters, they can be scanned at a glance.

"Your Majesty, the person who wrote this military merit system must be born rebellious."

"Shiqing Shilu, it was established at the beginning of the founding of our Tianyu Dynasty, and it has been in use for hundreds of thousands of years, but this person said that Shiqing Shilu is a system that endangers the imperial court."

"If Shiqing Shilu really endangered the imperial court, how could our Tianyu dynasty stand up to this day?"

After Du Yuan finished reading, if this wasn't the Imperial Study Room, his face would have turned black on the spot.

He is a member of the aristocratic family, and he must not allow anyone to harm the interests of the aristocratic family, and Jiang Zhao's military merit system has completely harmed the vested interests of the aristocratic family.

He will never allow anyone to endanger the interests of the family.

"Your Majesty, the person who wrote the military merit system must want our Tianyu Dynasty to fall apart."

"This person's sinister intentions are truly deplorable. I implore Your Majesty to execute this person!"

Zhao Dang cupped his hands and said indignantly at Guozijian's sacrificial wine.

"I implore Your Majesty to execute this person!"

Du Yuan also definitely executed Jiang Zhao.

Although he and Zhao Dang are usually at odds, their positions are consistent in the face of interests.

After hearing the words of the two, the emperor's face was gloomy. He looked at Taifu Jiang Ding and asked.

"Teacher, what do you think?"

Jiang Taifu, who is already old and has white hair and beard, cups his hands.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the veteran thinks that this system of meritorious service is really ingenious."

"If our Tianyu Kingdom can implement this military merit system, there will definitely be many talented people in the court."

He very much agrees with this military merit system.

"Teacher, this military merit system is clearly a child's nonsense, how can you believe it?"

"Shiqing and Shilu are custom-made by the ancestors, how can the laws of the ancestors be changed!"

Zhao Dang said excitedly.

He must not let this military merit system be implemented.

"Sir, seconded!"

Prime Minister Du Yuan bowed his hands and bent his waist to [-] degrees. In the Tianyu Dynasty, scholars would only perform this grand ceremony on important occasions. Du Yuan is performing such a grand ceremony now to express his determination to the emperor.

The family will never allow this law to be implemented in the Tianyu Dynasty.

"Even if the ancestral law was established by the ancestors, hundreds of years have passed. Today's Tianyu Dynasty has undergone earth-shaking changes from the original Tianyu Dynasty. This ancestral law should also be changed."

"If we blindly abide by the old law, how can our Tianyu Dynasty become stronger?"

Before the emperor said anything, Grand Tutor Jiang Ding retorted.

"The law of the ancestors is determined by the Majesty of the past. When the Taifu said this, does it mean that the laws and regulations made by the Majesty of the past are all wrong?"

Du Yuan deliberately misinterpreted the meaning of Jiang Ding's words to attack Jiang Ding.

"Your Majesty, I have never thought so."

Jiang Ding bowed to the emperor, whether he thought so or not, he had to deny it, otherwise Du Yuan would use this matter to make a big fuss in the court.

This group of aristocratic families only think about how to strengthen their own family's power, completely disregarding the country.

"Your Majesty, the old minister often visits the people and finds that there are many capable people and strangers among the people. If the military merit system can be implemented, our Tianyu Dynasty will definitely be able to recruit a large number of capable people."

"At that time, our Tianyu will suppress the northern barbarians and southern demons, just around the corner."

As long as the benefits are enough, Tai Tu believes that there will be many people who are willing to join the army.

The army that conquered the northern barbarians before was a mandatory conscription among the people, and it was stipulated that every household must send out one male to join the army.

This also led to the phenomenon that no one harvested the grain in the field. This year, the Tianyu Dynasty collected a lot less tax on the field grain.

If those tourists can voluntarily enlist in the army, the strength of Tianyu Dynasty can be greatly increased.

"The civilians don't know a single word. What else can they do except brute force. If they become generals and take charge of a team of soldiers, wouldn't the legal system of the Tianyu Dynasty be messed up?"

"Besides, do those civilians know what the art of war is? When they command indiscriminately on the battlefield, it will only ruin the life of my good man in Tianyu."

Du Yuan said quite angrily.

But what he said also has some truths, people who don't understand the art of war become generals because of killing a lot of enemies, but when they go to the battlefield, they don't know anything, they don't understand anything, and they will only ruin the lives of many innocent people.

The emperor obviously also thought of this problem, frowning slightly, not knowing how to solve this problem.

Can't every soldier be trained before going to the battlefield?
Such a financial and human expenditure is too great.
