Within one day, Zheng Nian'er was somewhat frustrated after being lectured by the Gong Dou system twice in a row!

There was no way, what the Gongdou system said made sense, even if Zheng Nianer felt uncomfortable, she had to admit it.

However, she was still a little unwilling to give in, and carefully explained the benefits and details of selecting officials through the imperial examination to Emperor Yongcheng again.

Emperor Yongcheng's eyes flickered.

It was also an examination to select officials, but the late emperor's method was only on a small scale and did not have a complete set of rules.

As for the imperial examination and official selection mentioned by Zheng Nian'er, both the overall rules and the implementation details are very detailed, as if they have been accumulated and evolved over hundreds of thousands of years.

It is very mature and effective!

If it can be implemented smoothly, it will definitely break the monopoly of the aristocratic families and allow the imperial power to be concentrated to the greatest extent.

After all, the person who sets the examination questions is the emperor, and all Jinshi are "disciples of the emperor."

Those young officials who enter the officialdom will not only know that there are aristocratic families, but they will not see that there is an imperial emperor sitting on the dragon throne!

What a great imperial examination system!

It is indeed a good strategy to fight against the aristocratic families!

Emperor Yongcheng's heart was moved and he was eager to try it!

On the surface, his first decree seems to have been successful and will be implemented smoothly.

But in fact, Emperor Yongcheng was not stupid.

He knew that after this incident, his already low prestige became even more pitiable.

The more successful the reform of the salt administration is, the more people will praise Queen Mother He!

This was also the real reason why Emperor Yongcheng had so much resentment towards Empress Dowager He and could not help but curse her secretly.

He did not feel any help from his mother, and he only felt a sense of sadness, anger and humiliation in his heart.

no!

He must make political achievements, let the civil and military officials of the dynasty, and let the people of the world know that he is the real master of the Dayuan Dynasty!

Okay, the second fire starts with the imperial examination and official selection!

Emperor Yongcheng clenched his fist vigorously, rekindling the flames of war, and endless pride arose in his heart.

Feng Shou had an informant in the palace, and he received the news before Emperor Yongcheng really made a fuss.

Feng Shou: ...I feel so tired, why can’t the little emperor just rest for two days?

The Yan Zheng incident hasn't passed yet, he, he actually started to challenge the entire family again without fear of death.

Feng Shou was not speaking for the aristocratic family, nor did he think it was right for the aristocratic family to control the appointment of court officials.

In fact, it was Feng Shou's suggestion that the late emperor implemented the examination to select officials.

However, this kind of thing cannot be done too hastily.

Governing a big country is like cooking a small one, you cannot make reforms at every turn!

Although the Yanzheng matter has touched the interests of the family, it has not destroyed the foundation of the family.

However, the aristocratic family still made a big fuss. If Empress Dowager He hadn't taken action in time, the young emperor who had only been in power for less than half a year would probably have issued a "sinful edict".

Now, Emperor Yongcheng is even more powerful, and actually wants to "drain fuel from the bottom of the cauldron" of the aristocratic family.

Haha, salt, iron, etc. are at best the money bag of aristocratic families, and recommendation to be an official is the exclusive privilege of aristocratic families, which is the basis for their control of the world.

With the prestige and power of the founding emperor, the late emperor did not dare to easily conduct any national civil service examination to select officials.

At most, you can take an exam in a certain yamen or a few official positions with very strict professional requirements.

For example, in Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment must be familiar with the "Dayuan Law" and be proficient in criminal investigation and solving cases.

Some bragging family members, or bookworms recommended by aristocratic families, are not suitable.

Another example is the Ministry of Industry, which requires you to know the basic knowledge of manufacturing.

In these official positions, the late emperor put forward the requirement to take exams first and then become officials.

Although the aristocratic families were a little dissatisfied, they didn't care too much.

Originally, according to the plan formulated by Feng Shou for the late emperor, it was first implemented slowly in a small area.

Then, it will be radiated to three provinces and six ministries, and then promoted nationwide.

This process is very long and requires the efforts of twenty to thirty years, or even two generations.

After all, the family has been in existence for thousands of years. Such a huge power has too many intricate connections and it is impossible to achieve it overnight.

If you don't do it well, you will be criticized by the family.

Although the royal family of the Dayuan Dynasty had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, the aristocratic families did not dare to change emperors and dynasties at every turn like in the past.

However, that did not completely anger the family.

Once someone is pushed into a hurry, this group of people might do something crazy.

Emperor Yongcheng was originally a young emperor. After taking charge of the throne, he had no dazzling political achievements.

The court was in turmoil. Let's not talk about the aristocratic families who provoked the trouble. Even some martial arts and upstarts would probably complain about Emperor Yongcheng.

Until then--

Even Queen Mother He would find it difficult to clean up such a mess.

Emperor Yongcheng's move was not simply stupid, but he directly put the rope around his neck.

Feng Shou couldn't sit still anymore. He could no longer let Emperor Yongcheng continue to act nonsense.

Without thinking too much, Feng Shou entered the palace.

"Sir, are you here?"

With the decision made in his heart, Emperor Yongcheng was a little uneasy after all.

Seeing Master Feng, whom he trusted most, Emperor Yongcheng temporarily forgot the unhappiness between teacher and student.

He came over cordially and talked to Feng Shou with a happy face.

Feng Shou suppressed the anxiety in his heart and chatted with the emperor without leaving a trace.

In fact, the moment he entered the palace, Feng Shou regretted it again.

He shouldn't have been so reckless.

The young emperor was no better than the late emperor. Although the late emperor was suspicious, he still had a bottom line - Feng Shou was trustworthy.

As for the little emperor, he is sensitive, has low self-esteem and is willful and arrogant.

If Feng Shou came rashly and asked him directly if he wanted to implement some kind of imperial examination to select officials, the young emperor would definitely be dissatisfied——

Okay, Feng Shou, how dare you put eyes and ears around me!

In fact, as the late emperor's greatest adviser, Feng Shou was able to strategize and make every move.

In addition to his high IQ and good strategy, he should also have enough sources of information.

Everyone, including the late emperor and all the martial artists, were guessing that Feng Shou must have a team of people who were good at inquiring about information.

To say that he is the biggest spy leader in Dayuan Dynasty is a bit excessive.

But he has placed people in the palace and in the backyards of major martial arts families, which is also a fact that many people acquiesce to.

That is to say, Feng Shou had no intention of pursuing an official career. After the establishment of the Dayuan Dynasty, he simply "returned to seclusion".

Otherwise, the late emperor would have been unable to tolerate Feng Shou long ago.

Due to some reasons, the late emperor not only failed to hide Feng Shou, but also failed to excessively clean up the spies in the palace.

He just cleared himself up, and there were still Feng Shou's informants in other palaces, such as Queen Mother He's side.

Emperor Yongcheng was not as good as the late Emperor. The people around him were originally arranged by the Empress Dowager He, the three ministers and other big bosses.

Among them was Feng Shou.

Feng Shou did not want to monitor the young emperor, but worried about him and protected him secretly.

However, after Emperor Yongcheng knew the "truth", he might not appreciate it. He might even be wary of Feng Shou and feel that he was disloyal.

Feng Shou had already experienced Emperor Yongcheng's unreasonableness and ingratitude, so he did not dare to test him further.

Alas, the little emperor is not broad-minded enough and does not have that much trust in him. It is better to hide these things if possible.

Feng Shou regretted that he should not have entered the palace rashly, but he had already come and could not retreat halfway.

So, he concealed his emotions and began to consciously guide Emperor Yongcheng.

An old fox like Feng Shou can achieve his goal very quickly if he deliberately tries to trick people.

As for Emperor Yongcheng, he was already worried and excited, and wanted to find someone to "share" with him.

After hearing Feng Shousan's "chatting", he said excitedly, "Sir, now that the Salt Administration Department is about to be established, I want to follow my father's method and hold an examination to select officials!"

Feng Shou's eyes lit up, hey, you're not that stupid!
