He said knowingly: "The emperor's intention is to arrest the literati who 'slandered Shengming' on a large scale among the people."

  Yan Ge nodded: "Catch is to be caught, but pay attention to who the target is.

  Those who support the new imperial examination, don't move, those who oppose the new imperial examination can be arrested."

  Gu Nianxin suddenly realized: "Your Majesty, slandering Shengming is just a pretense, you want to take this opportunity to know that the stubborn and pedantic literati are true!"

  Yan Ge smiled and patted her jade hand: "What can we hide from our director!"

  Gu Nianxin got Yan Ge's imperial edict and immediately.

  Organized the staff of the Ladies Division to conduct a centralized review of the works of a group of literati, especially scholars from Dantu, Runzhou, and Yinchuan, all of them were included in the list of reviewers.

  These censored people have really committed the so-called "slandering of the Holy Spirit"

  There are very few serious sinners, most people just complain about the new imperial examination system, and no one dares to rise to the level of criticizing the emperor.

  But the words, this thing, is extremely easy to misinterpret. According to Gu Nianxin's instructions, the censors took the words out of context, and quickly arrested a large number of people.

Chapter 222

  In the beginning, this large-scale purge of Shilin caused a shock in the whole of Wei, causing people to panic and put themselves in danger.

  But gradually everyone discovered that the purpose of this censorship was to investigate anti-poetry and anti-literature, but the object of the investigation was concentrated on a small number of people, and those literati who were usually active in thinking and supported the New Deal were safe and sound.

  After figuring this out, everyone tacitly understood, no one questioned this, and all of them quietly watched how Yan Ge "eliminated dissidents" as a bystander.

  This "word prison" initiated by Yan Ge

  The punishment is severe, ranging from being imprisoned to the frontier, or losing his head in severe cases.

  Frankly speaking, most of the people who were punished did not commit crimes like this, but politics is just like that. Since it has been done, it must be done neatly and not leave troubles later.

  For the sake of Dawei's unity, and for mission points, these people must be decisively thrown from Dawei's chariot.

  At the same time when the Maid Secretary launched this literary prison vigorously, the messenger of the Jurchen also quietly arrived in Beijing.

  Xue Liren, the young minister of Honglu Temple in charge of diplomatic work, personally received the Jurchen messenger Kan Xian.

  Although Xue Liren was not one of the elders of the pavilion, he was also a dignified second-rank official who was in charge of foreign affairs. For Jurchen, a small clan elder with a population of less than one million, this treatment was acceptable.

  According to Yan Ge's instructions, Xue Liren gave Kan Xian enough face in terms of material.

  As soon as Kan Xian arrived at the Honglu Temple Guild Hall, he stayed in a nice room with a complete set of red sandalwood furniture, accompanied by two first-class beauties of Wei Guo.

  That night, Honglu Temple held a large banquet, with 49 delicacies from the mountains and seas, thousands of glasses of wine, and the accompaniment of silk and bamboo strings.

  For three full days after that, Xue Liren brought Kan Xian to banquets or play every day, and he had no intention of taking him to meet the emperor at all.

  On the fourth day, Kan Xian finally became anxious.

  After all, he came with a mission this time. If he couldn't see the emperor, how could he ask Wei to retreat? He pleaded with Xue Liren: "Xue Shaoqing, please bring me to the palace to face the Holy Spirit, I want to. We need to discuss with the emperor."

  Xue Liren patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well, the messenger, don't be in a hurry.

  The emperor is dealing with all kinds of opportunities, and it is not easy for me to meet him, so I can only wait on shift.

  What's the matter, it was something wrong with the reception of our Honglu Temple that made the messenger wait impatiently"

  "No no."

  Kan Xian quickly waved his hand and retracted what he wanted to say.

  The reason why Xue Liren dragged Kan Xian all the time was because he was instructed by Yan Ge. Yan Ge's will for him was to treat the messenger with courtesy, but declined his request to face the saint.

  Kan Xian spent a few more days in anxious waiting, but Xue Liren still used all sorts of frivolous excuses to send him off. He finally realized that if he only relied on this Honglu Temple Shaoqing, he might never see Wei in his life. King of the country.

  It is better to ask for others than to ask for oneself. If Kan Xian can become a messenger of a country, the means are still a little bit.

  He exchanged precious furs and timbers shipped from thousands of miles in the Kanto for gold and silver treasures in the market of the capital, and then visited the dignitaries in the capital one by one, hoping that they could introduce himself to the emperor.

  But what Kan didn't know first, the officials in the capital were all killed by the censors and the ladies.

  Just kidding, who would dare to accept gifts from the envoys at the feet of the emperor, it is not an old birthday star - tired of living! Everyone greets Kan with a smile, but if he doesn't accept gifts, things will naturally fail.

  All Kamsian's activities are under surveillance,

  Just when he thought that this... Jurchen envoy was going to give up the idea of ​​giving gifts, the witty Kan Xian came up with a coup.

  He used all the belongings he brought to replace a few pieces of exquisite jewelry, and then Xuancheng wanted to present it to the Queen.

  Xue Liren couldn't stop it now, after all, the empress's face was here, and no one dared to stop it.

  He had no choice but to report this matter to the emperor.

  When Xue Liren asked to meet, Yan Ge was playing with his eldest son in Tong Su's Xiangyun Palace, and he met the Minister of Foreign Affairs in the warm pavilion of Xiangyun Palace.

  Generally speaking, court officials, no matter how high their status, can only enter and exit a few specific palaces outside the palace city that are related to office work, and are absolutely not allowed to enter the palace city.

  But Yan Ge expected that what Xue Liren was going to report would not be very complicated, so he was too lazy to move to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so he dropped by to meet the minister here.

  "This Kan Xian has a very bright head."

  After listening to Xue Liren's narration, Yan Ge leaned back on the armchair and said with a smile.

  "Then Your Majesty, look at this"

  Xue Liren asked tentatively.

  Just as Yan Ge was about to answer, there was a baby's cry.

  The eldest prince, Yan Xing, chased his wooden spinning top toy and climbed over from the side hall. Tong Su was negligent for a while and didn't act immediately.

  aware.

  "Oh my lord, get up quickly, it's cold on the ground."

  Xue Liren was startled by the prince, and hurriedly supported Yan Xing with his hand to prevent him from bumping into it.

  At this time, Tong Su and the maids around him also discovered the disappearance of the prince, and crowded on the threshold to come in, but they were afraid of disturbing the emperor's business negotiations.

  On the other hand, Yan Xing saw this lively scene, giggled straight, rubbed his chubby face against Xue Liren's body, and drooled a few drops of saliva on his official uniform.

  Yan Ge smiled and said, "Master Xue, Xing'er really likes you."

  There was also a smile on Xue Liren's round face.

  It's really that Xiao Yanxing has inherited his father's handsomeness and his mother's beauty, so cute that his heart melts, even Xue Liren, who is usually cautious and cautious, can't help but hug Xiao Yanxing and shake the top in his hand to make him happy.

  After playing around for a while, Yan Ge waved and motioned for Tong Su to come in and take Yan Xing out.

  Xue Liren said with emotion: "The eldest prince looks smart, and he will be a wise man in time."

  As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it. The matter of establishing a crown prince has always been a taboo that cannot be easily touched, not to mention that now the emperor has already given birth to a prince, this kind of thing cannot be mentioned casually.

  He immediately.

  He knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister has sinned!"

  Yan Ge said nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's just that I'm still young now, and the little princes are all young. You important ministers of the country, just concentrate on assisting me. The matter of the crown prince will be discussed when the time comes."

  "The emperor is considerate, the emperor is holy."

  Yan Ge brought the topic back to the matter of Kan Xian: "As for the Jurchen messenger, you should remind him in a side-by-side manner, saying that unless the Jurchen leader comes in person, I will not receive him.

  This hurdle is a personal essence at first, as long as you hit it, he will be able to understand it clearly."

  After Xue Liren resigned, Tong Su walked in with Yan Xing in his arms. One year after giving birth, her figure seemed to be more perfect than before, especially the soft and graceful temperament on her face was the best in the harem.

Chapter 223 Going to the Three Treasures Hall

  Yan Ge beckoned and put Tong Su on his lap.

  He scratched the beauty's gleaming nose and teased, "I can't even look at a child."

  Tong Su said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's not because the concubine can't watch Xing'er, it's because Xing'er misses his father too much, so he crawled over by himself.

  Do you think so? Wake up."

  Yan Xing stretched out his little hand to reach Yan Ge's collar as if he understood his mother's words.

  The father and son were intimate for a while, and Tong Su asked, "Your Majesty, what kind of people do you think we will become in the future when we wake up?"

  Yan Ge said confidently: "I will ask the best teacher to teach him. In the future, my Xing'er will definitely be a talented person!"

  Tong Su approached Yan Ge's arms happily, her eyes full of crescent moons.

  "Your Majesty, Master Tu Yan asks to see you."

  Yan Ge walked out of Xiangyun Palace, and Li Fuhai reported to him.

  "Um"

  Yan Ge was stunned for a moment. Although Master Tu Yan lived in the palace, he had never been very involved in the world. He never expected that he would take the initiative to ask for an appointment today.

  Yan Ge still respected this... Buddhist master, and immediately met him at the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

  "Amitabha, Your Majesty is well."

  When Tu Qian saw Yan Ge, he folded his hands and bowed.

  "Master Tu Yan, but you can't go to the Three Treasures Hall without anything."

  Tu Yan said: "The old man is here today, only to drag the request of Master Fayan, the abbot of the Chanyuan, to remind His Majesty."

  "Oh, Master Tuxian, please say it."

  Yan Ge invited Tu Qian to take a seat.

  Tu Pian said: "Your Majesty knows the state religion of Xiongnu and Rouran"

  "I know, isn't it Shamanism?"

  Yan Ge wondered why Tu Qian asked this.

  "Your Majesty knows that after the Xiongnu and Rouran immigrated to the customs, shamanism also spread widely in the customs. If things go on like this, I am afraid that my Buddhism and Taoism will be subservient to Shamanism."

  "what!"
