After a while, Cui Geng came to the main hall under the guidance of the little eunuch. As soon as he saw that Erzhang was there, he knew that there must be no good thing today.

As for Ji Xuan? This guy is a white-eyed wolf, whether he is friend or foe, it is really difficult to tell the difference.

When the monarch and ministers saw that the ceremony was over, Wu Zetian gave him a seat, and said warmly: "Cui wrote that it was really hard for King Luling to enter Beijing. ”

Cui Geng said angrily: "In order to repay the emperor's kindness, Weichen is not afraid of the axe, how can he talk about the word hardship?" ”

Wu Zetian was going to do something wrong, so he couldn't help but look a little embarrassed, and said: "I once said that if Cui Aiqing can successfully welcome King Luling back to Beijing, he will definitely reward him heavily. I don't know if Cui Aiqing has any thoughts in her heart? ”

In front of Ji Ji and Erzhang, Cui Geng would not say anything flattering about "thunder, rain and dew are all heaven's grace".

He thought for a moment and said: "Weichen is only thirty years old, and he has five official residences, how dare he expect any more extravagant blessings?" It's just that...... The female soldiers who controlled the crane prison on this trip not only did not receive the reward, but also did not have a house to live in, but also asked Your Majesty to think about it! ”

What about the female soldiers of the right control crane prison?

As soon as Wu Zetian heard this, he immediately found the beginning of the conversation, and said: "This is my negligence, pass on my will, and reward those female soldiers with twenty taels of gold each." ”

Twenty taels of gold, of course, a little shabby. However, for the formal reward of the imperial court, this is quite a lot. Don't forget, all the prime minister's legitimate income in a year is only five or six thousand, and just talking about Yulu, there are less than twenty taels of gold a month.

Cui Geng knelt down again and said: "Weichen represents all the soldiers of the right control of the crane prison, thank Your Majesty Longen." In addition, the matter of the right control of the crane prison yamen...... Now that this yamen has been occupied by Chengjun Prison again, I ask Your Majesty to issue an order for them to let the yamen out. ”

After a pause, Cui Geng smiled bitterly again: "Without His Majesty's support this time, Weichen doesn't dare to be presumptuous." ”

Wu Zetian glanced left and right, feeling a little like dozing off and looking for a pillow, and said, "Is it willing...... I won't go down, this matter is actually just a gesture for Cui Aiqing. ”

Cui Geng was stunned and said, "What? Wechen solves it by himself? How can I, a small writer, solve the problem of Chengjun Prison? ”

Wu Zetian said meaningfully: "The author Lang can't manage Cheng Junjian, but ...... Cheng Jun Jian is in business, can't he justifiably manage Cheng Jun Supervisor? ”

Cui Geng vaguely seemed to grasp something, and stammered: "What...... What do you mean? ”

"Isn't that obvious?" Zhang Changzong couldn't hold back any longer, and took the initiative to uncover the mystery and said: "Cui Shushu, you have a meritorious service in welcoming back the King of Luling, and Your Majesty is ready to promote you from the five-rank writer to the fourth-grade Chengjun supervisor Si Yeli." What do you think? Worthy of your Cui book, right? Ha ha! ”

"I ......"

When Cui Geng heard the news, a mouthful of old blood spurted out.

Although the author Lang is nothing, but with the addition of the two newspapers "Shendu Times" and "Da Zhou Royal Daily", the weight is really not light.

But what about the Sung Kyun Supervision Division? Except for a higher grade, there is no real power at all!

That's it, the most important thing is that before he left Beijing, he even played a concert and scolded Cheng Junjian once.

It is clearly written on the chapter that all the prisoners, priests, and doctors of the Guozijian must all open their minds and start anew.

As the saying goes, "robbing people of wealth is like killing their parents", what Cui Geng did that day was to smash the jobs of these people, and this hatred is by no means much weaker than "killing parents".

If he obeys Wu Zetian's will, he will be promoted to Chengjun as the secretary and boss. Colleagues, and even students, were his enemies. Qianfu refers to, is that still alive?

In the flash of light, Cui Geng had already figured out the cause and effect of the matter, and said, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable!" You also know that Wechen didn't deal with the people in Sungjun Prison, and this went to the prison......"

"Cui's book is wrong!" Ji Ji waved his hand and interrupted: "Yes, it was you Cui who wrote the book at the beginning, and you wanted to reform it into a junjian. The reason why His Majesty did not agree at the beginning was because the matter was very wide-ranging, not because the shortcomings of Sungjun Prison did not exist. Now, Your Majesty has asked you to enter Chengjun Prison as a secretary, just to let Cheng Junjian visit and propose a more stable reform plan. Cui Shu, you can't live up to Your Majesty's hard work! ”

Zhang Changzong also saw the cheapness, nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, yes." Didn't Cui's work say that in order to repay the emperor's kindness, he was not afraid of the micro axe? How did this move really shrink the egg~ child? ”

Cui Geng was so squeezed by him that he lost his temper, and said in his heart, I'm just saying something beautiful, okay? Who would take it seriously!

Alas, it seems that the two Zhang can't make another plan, and came up with such an idea to deal with me. No, they must not be allowed to do so!

Thinking of this, Cui Geng's eyes rolled, and he kowtowed to Wu Zetian, and said, "Weichen is indeed doing things for His Majesty and does not avoid the axe. However, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. It's not difficult to get Weichen to come up with a more secure plan, you have to promise me one more condition. ”

Wu Zetian himself has no ill feelings towards Cui Geng, but just wants to reduce part of his power. As for why Cui Gengjin had to be put in prison? That's because Cheng Jun Prison has complicated personnel and can involve most of Cui Geng's energy. In this way, he can no longer give advice to the crown prince Li Xian.

Her Majesty immediately said, "Oh? I don't know what the conditions of Cui's work are? ”

"Weichen once wrote to His Majesty that he wanted to open the Chengjun Prison and start anew. Your Majesty's failure to approve Weichen's recital, of course, has Your Majesty's reasoning. Now, Wechen has a new idea. ”

"What's the idea?"

"Wechen's idea is a pilot. I don't care about the rest of the country, I want to recruit some new students, or even doctors, to come in and teach alone. It doesn't take much, as long as it takes a year, Your Majesty can see the effect of the Weichen method - the new prisoner and the old prisoner, who is the pillar of the imperial court! ”

Instinctively, Ji Ji objected: "It's not proper! At that time, His Majesty was opposed not only to the effect of starting anew, but also to other problems. For example, the placement of the old personnel of the Guozijian, if you are not careful, it will cause a big disaster! ”

For Cui Geng, who has the memory of later generations, this problem is even less of a problem. He said confidently: "Master Ji doesn't have to worry, this official has a method, which will never affect the placement of the old personnel of the Guozijian." That's the ...... The old way for the old, the new way for the new. ”

There are all smart people present, and there is no need for Cui Geng to explain, just based on the literal meaning, Cui Geng's plan is made clear to the brain - the original inmates, doctors, and directors of Chengjun Prison do not move, and directly recruit new people.

When a prisoner is in Chengjun Prison, it is not that he can live in prison forever. According to the regulations, within five years, regardless of whether they succeed or not, the prisoner must be released from prison.

At that time, the inmates who pass the Chengjun invigilator examination can directly become officials and step into the official career. If you are not qualified, then in the name of a prisoner, come out and eat yourself.

Of course, there are still some inmates who feel that they have a short future when they enter the official career as inmates, and they take the initiative to participate in the imperial examination, but that is a special case among the special cases.

In the past ten years, the system of Guozijian has almost deteriorated - because Wu Zetian is so happy that he wantonly uses prisoners as "Zhailang", as long as he mixes in Guozijian for two or three years, he will have official seats.

Now, Cui Geng's idea is that the old prisoners, either as officials or out of prison by themselves, will gradually disappear completely. Those doctors, Si Ye, without students, what face do they have to continue to live in Sungjun Prison?

In just three or five years, the old forces of Sungjun Prison can be swept away. Because it does not directly affect the benefits of the current inmates, the rebound will be much smaller.

Wu Zetian looked at Cui Geng, and thought to himself, this Cui Erlang is really a talent, and after a little thought, he came up with such a good idea for me, and said, "Okay, just ...... it."

"Wait!"

At this moment, Ji Xuan's eyes rolled and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that although the idea of Cui Shu looks good, there are still a few problems that are difficult to solve. ”
