The next morning, just after the morning drum beat, Liu Fu came to Leyouyuan.

"Pei Sicheng." After the guest and the guest talked, Liu Fu asked with a smile, "I have been here to visit the mansion so early, and I haven't disturbed you and the princess' rest, right?"

"Isn't it too late for Butler Liu to say this now?"

Pei Shaoqing said: "I've been disturbed, what's the point of saying it?"

Liu Fu was a little embarrassed, why didn’t Pei Sicheng speak according to the routine?

At this time, shouldn’t you say “no” in a generous way?

"Butler Liu." Pei Shaoqing yawned and said, "Is it for yesterday's incident?"

Seeing Pei Shaoqing like this, Liu Fu really wanted to get up and leave because he felt that Pei Shaoqing might not pay much attention to this matter. Alang alone was so enthusiastic that he would not be able to do this matter.

After all, the most important bamboo paper is still in Pei Shaoqing's hands.

But in the end, Liu Fu still held back, and a small impatience would cause trouble.

For the sake of the Liu family, what is the point of receiving a little bit of slow treatment?

"Butler Liu, you are so responsible. I didn't mean to neglect you." Pei Shaoqing yawned again and explained, "It's really because he has been doing a lot in the past few days and hasn't had a good sleep."

"Last night, I worked hard again."

"I'm really sleepy now."

"That's it." Liu Fu suddenly felt much more comfortable and said, "Or what if I come again the other day?"

"There's no need for this." Pei Shaoqing waved his hand and said, "Anyway, I can't sleep in the morning. I have to go to the Imperial College for a while, butler Liu, let's talk about the serious business immediately."

"Okay." Liu Fu nodded, "Pei Sicheng, my Alang has already nodded."

"The elders can really admire the poor people in the world."

Pei Shaoqing bowed to the Liu Mansion in Chongrenfang and said, "Then now, let's go straight to the point. This is for Mr. Liu to realize his ideals, but for me, it is for money."

Liu Fu smiled and said, "The good teacher Pei Sicheng knows that the Liu family also has a lot of expenses, so."

"I understand." Pei Shaoqing smiled slightly and said, "I made money and the two families shared the same amount."

"Pei Sicheng is righteous." Liu Fu gave a thumbs up and said, "What should I do?"

Pei Shaoqing said: "This matter needs to be started with the Imperial College and the various prefectures to remove the quota. To put it more specifically, it is to increase the quota of poor families!"

"Increase the amount of relief for poor families?"

Liu Fu frowned and said, "Pei Sicheng, I'm afraid this is useless, right?"

"The reduction rate of the children of poor families in various prefectures and even the Imperial College is not low. According to the provisions of Yonghui Rule, the reduction rate of the children of poor families shall not be less than 40%.

"But it's useless. There are not so many poor children taking the imperial examination."

"So what if the rate of deduction is increased to 80%?"

"Butler Liu, this is just the first step." Pei Shaoqing smiled, "It's just selling anxiety."

"Selling anxiety?" Liu Fu was confused, "What anxiety? Do you make those noble families anxious?"

"Yes." Pei Shaoqing said, "The reduction of children from poor families will increase, and the reduction of children from aristocratic families will decrease accordingly, and the anxiety of the Shigao family will inevitably be inevitable."

"not necessarily."

Liu Fu said: "I just said that there are not so many poor children who are capable of participating in the imperial examinations, so in the end, they still have to make up for the gap between the children of aristocratic families."

"For example, in this subject, the amount of relief for children from aristocratic families is even more than 90%.

"That was before." Pei Shaoqing said, "It won't be certain in the future."

"Hmm?" Liu Fu's heart moved and suddenly he figured it out.

Pei Shaoqing wants to go sideways and aggravate the anxiety of the high-ranking families.

Pei Shaoqing said again: "Butler Liu, what do you think when those high-ranking families learn that starting this year, the reduction of the children of aristocratic families will further decrease, and then suddenly there will be a collection of classics, history and literature on the market with high quality and low price. How will they feel?"

"That's more," Liu Fu said in a deep voice, "Of course, he will buy it at a high price. In any case, these classics, history, and literature cannot be allowed to flow into the hands of poor children."

"If not,"

"There are really fewer reliefs for the children of aristocratic families!"

"That's all!" Pei Shaoqing said, "This is the opportunity to make money!"

Speaking of this, he said: "Only when the noble families become anxious, they have the opportunity to make money! Otherwise, how can they pick money out of their mouths?"

"I understand, I will repay Ah Lang."

Liu Fu nodded and said, "So how many volumes are there in the first batch of classics, history, and literature collections?"

Pei Shaoqing said: "The first batch of classics, history, and literature are targeted at the top families in Chang'an City, so there is not too many, two thousand volumes are almost enough."

"Only two thousand copies?"

Liu Fu frowned and said, "How much money can this be?"

"But Mr. Liu, don't underestimate these two thousand volumes."

Pei Shaoqing said: "If it is worth 1,000 guan, it will be 2 million guan!"

"What, it costs a thousand chunks?" Liu Fu said dumbfounded, "This is not a lonely book in history. How can it be sold at such a high price? You need to know that those high families are not fools."

"Those high families of aristocratic families are not fools."

Pei Shaoqing said: "It is precisely because they are not fools that they bid for these two thousand classics, history, and literature at high prices to prevent these books from falling into the hands of poor children."

Liu Fu said again: "What should I do specifically?"

Pei Shaoqing said: "You come here with your ears."

Liu Fu really came over.

Pei Shaoqing said this.

Liu Fu was amazed when he heard this.

...

The next morning, the Political Affairs Hall discussed politics as usual.

Today we are discussing the reform of the imperial examination.

Wu Zetian is already working hard to reform the imperial examination, but the results are not effective.

As Wu Zetian's confidant, Liu Yizhi has a responsibility and an obligation to share her worries.

Liu Yizhi's way: "The Queen Mother, there are only less than ten poor children from the imperial examination system today, and one of them is a Japanese, which is a serious deviation from the purpose of enrolling scholars in the imperial examination system."

Cui Zhiwen said: "What if the poor children are not good at studying?"

"That's right." Li Yiyan said, "If you want to talk about the number of students, there are actually not many poor children in the Imperial College, and there are more poor children in the prefectures in the world."

“But what’s the use of a large number?”

"Their studies are really unbearable."

"The imperial court cannot lower the admission standards in order to take care of poor children, right?"

"What's wrong with lowering the admission standards?" Liu Yizhi said, "Empress Dowager, I suggest that children from aristocratic families and poor families take separate exams, and then admit them separately according to the rate of relief."

As soon as this was said, it was like a drop of water entering a oil pan and exploded.

"Liu Yizhi, what nonsense are you talking about? How can you make such a reason?"

"Are you going to discriminate against the children of aristocratic families? Why are you going to get children of aristocratic families? What's wrong with the children of aristocratic families? Are you treated like this?"

"Report to the Queen Mother, this matter must not be done."

"Otherwise, my Tang Dynasty will inevitably be in chaos!"

Except for Liu Rengui who did not speak, the other prime ministers opposed it in unison.

Liu Yizhi said angrily: "Even if you don't take separate exams, it's okay to increase the rate of relief for poor children? And you can't deal with it in vain, it must be a substantial increase!"

The prime ministers immediately shut up and stopped talking.

As the old saying goes, you should not be too good at being a person or doing things.

Liu Yizhi is an honest man, but he can't force him too much.

Otherwise, if he really makes him anxious, he will catch them and bite them like a mad dog in the future, which will be a problem.

Of course, the most important thing is that even if the children of poor families are increasing their quota, it is nothing.

The amount of relief does not mean anything. Even if the amount of relief for poor families increases to 80% or 90%, will the final exam still be the number of children from aristocratic families?

Children of aristocratic families have a better education.

The crushing of poor children is not fake.

Wu Zetian asked Pei Yan, "Master Pei Ge, what do you think?"

"I can discuss this very well," Pei Yan said, "It should be like this."

Wu Zetian said lightly: "So what is the better to increase it?"
