Macross Empire

In the world of "Dynasty Warriors", brother Wang Mang also appeared in history. As a result, under the force of the middle-level world, it is said that the speed of rushing to the street is much faster than in the history of the main world.But now that Cai Yong openly talked about Wang Mang and talked about this topic to Li Yuan, he was already using Wang Mang's lesson to warn Li Yuan who seemed to be in a similar situation!

Of course, Cai Yong is also kind-hearted. His precious daughter Cai Yan and Li Yuan met each other, and he has been nominated by Li Yuan as the sacrificial wine of the dynasty. Now it can be said that he is already on the same boat. For Li Yuan The feudal family that has been created now has offended the aristocratic family, and the whole court, including the Queen Mother He and the Young Emperor, have maintained a default attitude. I am really worried that Li Yuan's move will become Wang Mang's kind of death.

For Cai Yong, now that he has a relationship with Li Yuan, let's not mention what may happen between his daughter Cai Yan and Li Yuan. As a faction on Li Yuan's side, if Li Yuan ends up with Wang Mang in the end, then the Cai family will probably become a historical term, which is something that Cai Yong cannot take lightly.

"My lord, I don't have Wang Mang's determination, but I won't let the aristocratic family control the court either!"

Hearing Cai Yong's worried words, Li Yuan addressed Cai Yong very politely, and then explained leisurely.

The family controls the court!

This was already showing its signs before Emperor Hanling ascended the throne. Cai Yong obviously understood this, but Cai Yong was still a little worried about Li Yuan's explanation.

Even if we attack the aristocratic family, it is the best way to fight against one faction, right?Why did you directly throw out the matter of the imperial examination, simply treating the world's aristocratic families as enemies? ! !Even with Cai Yong's mentality, and the complaints of some old friends and acquaintances who suddenly came to the door recently, I feel a little restless.

It can be said that although Cai Yong doesn't know too much about the power and potential strength of those aristocratic families, it is not something that Li Yuan can calm down with a single word...

"My lord, the aristocratic families you mentioned do have good strength and influence, but now they can publicly stand up against the imperial examination? What name and suggestions do they use to oppose?"

Seeing that Cai Yong was still full of worry after listening to his words, Li Yuan felt that he wanted to give his future father-in-law a reassurance, so he simply told him about the cards he currently controls in the Han Dynasty : "Now, Sili is in my hands. Liu Yu of Youzhou, Gongsun Zan of Bingzhou, Zhao Yun of Liangzhou, and Li Xingke of Jizhou are my people. More than half a million elite troops, the queen mother and the emperor are in my hands. , You said that the aristocratic families dare to jump out and seek death!"

"Hiss~~~! Really?!!"

Hearing Li Yuan's words, Cai Yong couldn't help but gasped, and confirmed with some surprise.

If what Li Yuan said was true, with more than [-] troops and the title of righteousness in his hands, Cai Yong really didn't care about the possible reactions of the aristocratic families.

After all, Cai Yong also knew that although the potential strength of the aristocratic family in the court and the locality was strong, the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty still existed in the world, and even the largest aristocratic family only had a few thousand private soldiers.In the face of righteousness and hundreds of thousands of troops, the family still can't do the death-seeking thing like hitting a stone with a pebble. As long as Li Yuan doesn't want to force the family into death, Cai Yong believes that Li Yuan will definitely have the last laugh.

However, Cai Yong, who is still talking to Li Yuan, doesn't know that Li Yuan is really planning to persecute the family, and has even prepared several big meals for the family.Of course, there is no need for Li Yuan to tell Cai Yongming about this kind of thing. At worst, he will talk to MM Cai Yan when the time comes, so that Mr. Cai Yong can feel at ease...

……

Later, on the streets of Luoyang, the convoy of Li Yuan and others was driving in the middle of the avenue.

Compared with more than a month ago, Luoyang City seems to have completely lost the chaos during the Luoyang Rebellion. The shops that are still open on the street have a lot of novelty goods from Youzhou and the grasslands. Last year, only officials Sugar, white paper, spirits, spices and other things that only Furong can afford to enjoy have begun to enter the lower levels, and things such as grain, hot pot, cattle and sheep have already begun to fully occupy Luoyang, Sili, and Bingzhou. , Liangzhou and other places.

Especially now that the general competition for the imperial examination is in Luoyang, even if there are still two months before the final exam, tens of thousands of people who passed the initial exam from Sili and even other prefectures enter Luoyang, driving the consumption power to make the streets of Luoyang even more prosperous Abnormal, it doesn't look at all that there was a man-made disaster more than a month ago.

"Eh? Husband, are you sure, those aristocratic families won't try to win over people, or send people to take part in the imperial examination?"

Looking at the bustling situation outside the specially-made six-wheeled carriage, Saeko Busujima, who was very happy chatting with Cai Yan just now, thought for a while, and asked Li Yuan who was sitting with Estes and Diao Chan.

"Well, that's a good question!"

Hearing Saeko Bujima's question, Li Yuan, who had just put his arms around the waist of MM Diaochan and moved on Esther's buttocks, straightened his face, and then said in a tone of disdain and exclamation: "The family They are quite smart, and at the same time they are also extremely cautious people. Unless the imperial examination is held successfully and shows overwhelming strength, those aristocratic families may directly send people to participate in the imperial examination now, but it is possible to attract talents to appear, but it is also possible It’s only possible if I agree with them~!”

After the imperial examination started, Li Yuan certainly didn't just sit around and do nothing. While commanding and integrating the situation in Sili, Youzhou, Bingzhou, Liangzhou, Jizhou and other places, he asked Bai Youling to conduct a close investigation on the aristocratic families and powerful people in various places. .

In the end, what made Li Yuan a little speechless but reasonable was that the imperial examinations were quarreled among the aristocratic families in Luoyang and other places. The old foxes of those aristocratic families were not really stupid enough to do this, they suppressed the chaotic voices inside the aristocratic family, and then adopted a tendency of silently watching the imperial examinations - just kidding!Is it true that now is the time when the princes are fighting for hegemony and the aristocratic families can play whatever they want?If you oppose the imperial examination, not to mention that it will hurt your reputation in the world. Facing Luoyang, which still has righteousness and an army of more than [-], openly opposing it is a situation where you are giving others a handle.

Although there are many scams in the family, but the family has a complete education and can pass on for hundreds of years. The head of the family and those high-level family members who hold power are sober. One jumped out to serve as a target for the court and the people of the world to vent their anger.

Moreover, for those aristocratic families, the vast majority of people still have a bottom line in their hearts and disdain for the imperial examinations. They think that the elites of these aristocratic families passed down by them are the pillars of the country, imperial examinations?How could those warriors and humble scholars shake their status!Now that the results of the first imperial examination have not yet come out, the means of the aristocratic family to deal with it is conditioned reflex, but it may not be necessary to really regard the imperial examination and those poor scholars as the enemy.

Therefore, after seeing the information about the noble families collected by Bai Yougui, Li Yuan was very happy that the noble families underestimated the enemy (it would be great if the enemy had a pig teammate), and on the other hand, he thought about how he felt about the noble families. It seems that the countermeasures can be more ruthless?Or, take a look at the Qin Dynasty's army and land mu system...

"Eh? They...those aristocratic families really have confidence!"

After hearing Li Yuan's explanation, Saeko Busujima, who knew how powerful the imperial examination is, felt a little speechless about the reaction of the aristocratic families in the world of "Dynasty Warriors".

It should be said that this can be regarded as a limitation of vision. At least Saeko Busujima understood that the imperial examination later replaced the family, which proved the impact this system would definitely have on the family, but the family in "Dynasty Warriors" did not have this Even the smart people from aristocratic families vaguely feel that the emergence of the imperial examination will have an impact on the aristocratic families, but how much impact it will have is not these smart people from aristocratic families who have no precedent before and have never seen the power of the imperial examination. I can figure it out!

——This is like explaining that gunpowder weapons are powerful to a general who has never seen gunpowder weapons, but to an ancient who has never really seen gunpowder weapons sweeping the era of cold weapons, even if he vaguely understands that this kind of gunpowder weapon may indeed be very powerful, But to what extent?This general probably still believes in the cold weapon army in his hands!

"Of course they have self-confidence! After all, even Cao Cao relied on poor scholars and these aristocratic families to fight against it. Unfortunately, it was only after the Tang Dynasty that the imperial examination system began to be implemented..."

Faced with Saeko Busujima's evaluation, Li Yuan also spread his arms and said with some sighs.

In fact, if Li Yuan hadn't appeared, the good times of the aristocratic families could have lasted until the early Tang Dynasty. Even Cao Cao, the great man in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, only suppressed the aristocratic families after uniting with poor families to face the alliance of the aristocratic families For a while, in the end it was overthrown by the aristocratic families and they became big.

Why do you say?Well, it's not that Cao Cao can't see the power and harm of the aristocratic families, but that the aristocratic families occupy the volume of many resources at various levels. Perhaps a single family is not too strong, but the big and small families are different. They want to oppose it. At this level, unless they have the will to flatten the world by force, and have the will of Comrade Iron and Steel to carry out resolutely after ten million people die, most people really don't have the courage and idea to do this kind of thing.

When he started his family, he also relied on the power of the family. Even Cao Cao, who can be regarded as a family strictly speaking, obviously did not have the courage to destroy the family. Let's do it!

In the face of Li Yuan and Bujima Saeko's mutual conversation and exclamation, Esthers chatted and watched helplessly, while Diao Chan MM, who was gently beating Li Yuan's leg, had a small face. She was a little pale, if she didn't know Li Yuan's personality and had a close relationship with Li Yuan, she was really worried that what she would end up with after hearing these words would be to be evaporated directly...

Seeing that Diao Chan's MM seemed a little panicked, Li Yuan softly comforted Diao Chan, and then began to turn his attention to thinking about the imperial examination and other matters.

Chapter 400 Talents Gather

Two months later, on a school field around Luoyang City.

On the school grounds where soldiers were sent to Japan and inspected, tents and curtains made of bamboo and wood blocked the sun, wind and sand that might blow around, and glanced glances and other accidents.

"For the final examination of liberal arts in the imperial examination, you and other candidates only need to fill in the first two relevant examination questions, and finally write an essay based on the questions. Even if you fail in the end, you can choose to get ten bolts of silk satin and five gold cakes. And choose to enter the army for training or serve as an official. Those who pass can directly get the Banquet of the Chariot and Cavalry General, and serve as an official at the Baishi level, up to the first-level official in Liubaishi County!"

"The exam process is divided into four hours, during which the candidates will be provided with free food, and if there is any other situation, you can pull the bell to report. Any candidate who walks out of the shed during the exam period will lose the qualification of the exam unless he announces to hand in the paper! "...

On this school ground that was changed to the liberal arts examination room for the imperial examination, sergeants of the Youzhou Army patrolled while special personnel read out the rules of the final liberal arts examination.

Compared with the imperial examinations in the main world that later turned into stereotyped essays, Li Yuan's first imperial examination in the world of "Dynasty Warriors" was quite simple. Scribes only have to face a cloze, an article with more than a hundred words written silently, and a strategy marked as a solution to a lawsuit and dispute. The difficulty is not at all possible for those who rely on stereotyped essays in the main world Comparable.

Of course, it is impossible for these humble scholars to have such good deeds as "Tian Shelang in the morning and Tianzitang in the evening". Those who have not passed the initial test will not have any compensation at all, even those who are eliminated in the final test. It was also provided by Li Yuan in a friendly manner, and most of the humble scholars who passed the final test started as low-level officials.

However, for ordinary scholars who have no way to make progress, the road and situation of the imperial examination given by Li Yuan are not the best situation, but there are many people who are willing to take a chance or have far-sightedness , there are more than [-] humble scholars in the entire school, which can explain the problem.

"I am talented, I want to see what kind of character General Cheqi is..."
