The first place is set, and there is no objection to the top three.

Zheng Zhuang recommended by Ji Di was the second, and Ning Cheng was the third by Zhang Tang. In this way, this examination is already quite tough in terms of gold content, and the top three are all giants who held official positions of more than 2,000 stones in Liu De's previous life.

Liu De looked at the other more than 80 people, and found more than 20 famous people in his previous life, and finally there were more than 10 people who were officials and county guards.

"I really want to take it all under my command......" Looking at the names that had been powerful in history, Liu De drooled and fantasized.

The reason why talents are so concentrated in this examination is also because of the defects of the recommendation system, and many capable young people are limited by the high threshold of the recommendation system and the bureaucrats' old-fashioned style, so they can only waste their lives.

As soon as the examination appeared, they were sifted out of the sand.

"It's a pity...... Liu De sighed, among these people, there is too little room for him to choose.

Now, he has set up four people: Yan Yi, Master Father Yan, Zhou Yuan, and Sima Xiangru, and there are only eight places to choose from.

Among the remaining eight places, at least four of the children of Chehou must be selected.

"There must also be two scholars from Guanzhong!" Liu De rubbed his temples and thought. For the Han family, Guanzhong is its real foundation, and encircling and buying the children of Guanzhong is the right political choice.

As for fairness? Where is true fairness in this world?

As a result, there are only two places that can really choose freely.

How to use these two places. It's something to think about.

"Let's discuss the candidates for the second list...... Liu De looked at Zhang Tang and the others, he was holding a blank piece of paper. First write on it Zhang Jin, who is under the pseudonyms of Sima Xiangru and Zhou Yuan, and then hand it to Zhang Tang and instruct: "The rest of the candidates." Qing and the other three of them have a good discussion! ”

"Your Highness, what is the judging standard for this second list?" Zhang Tang thought for a while and asked.

Liu De laughed and said: "Naturally, after being a loyal minister, the meritorious son is ranked among the distant relatives!" ”

This is the proper meaning of it, and it can be regarded as Liu De's reward for those Chehou who stood up and cheered for him.

It's just that this matter can't be said too clearly, and it can only be understood by Zhang Tang and others.

So, after saying this, Liu De got up and said, "Qing and the others think about it." I'll go to the East Palace to say hello to the Queen Mother! ”

"Congratulations to Your Highness!"

………………………………………………

Liu De arrived at Changle Palace. As usual, he gave Empress Dowager Dou an eye exercise, and then, Liu De reported the matter of today's examination to Empress Dowager Dou, and then asked: "Imperial grandmother, grandson, can you consider it like this?" ”

Empress Dowager Dou smiled with satisfaction: "The mourning family is just a blind old woman, trapped in the palace, where do you have any opinions on the government?" But Liu De, you do things. Think about it very carefully, this point, the mourner wants to praise you! ”

Liu De hurriedly and obediently hammered the shoulder of the Empress Dowager Dou, and said, "The imperial grandmother Miao praised it......"

Empress Dowager Dou smiled. didn't answer, just said to himself: "The mourning family called Concubine Su over today and told me about that matter......

"Concubine Su is very unhappy!" Empress Dowager Dou sighed.

Not just unhappy!

Empress Dowager Dou thought about it for a moment. Her eyes were blind, but her ears were sharp. She remembered clearly that when she proposed to succeed Liu De to Queen Bo. Su Ji's chest suddenly shorted of breath, her snort became worse, and her fingers were about to dig into the flesh!

It's not that she is the queen mother, she is in charge of the power of the queen and palace, and the concubines are abolished, she can make a decision, and she doesn't even need to say a word to the emperor, I'm afraid Su Ji will go away at that time.

Even so, when Su Ji left, even her steps were a little vain.

"The mourning family is easy to talk about, and finally persuaded Concubine Su to nod, and the next thing is not to be mentioned by the mourning family, right?" Empress Dowager Dou said lightly. Empress Dowager Dou is very experienced in dealing with harem concubines, and her longevity hall is a huge deterrent to all the concubines who come here.

No matter how domineering Su Ji is, under her coercion and temptation, she can only bow her head and say yes in the end.

As far as she is concerned, interfering in the matter of the heirs of the palace concubines is a huge political risk!

Not to mention anything else, once this matter spreads, her reputation will suffer some damage among the people.

But it's worth the risk!

Why?

Who told Liu De that he had already made a verbal relationship with Guan Tao and would marry Chen Ajiao in the future?

Chen Ajiao is the most precious person in the heart of the Empress Dowager Dou, in order to make Chen Ajiao's life better, there will not be a wicked mother-in-law in the future, and the reputation will be damaged, and the Empress Dowager Dou can't take care of it!

"In the future, you have to treat Gillian well, don't be wronged!" Empress Dowager Dou turned her head and looked at Liu De with a pair of cloudy eyes: "If you let Gillian be wronged, the mourning family will not be spared!" ”

"Grandson doesn't dare!" Liu De hurriedly knelt down and patted his chest and promised: "My grandson has promised to build a big golden house for Gillian cousin in the future, a manly man, do what he says!" ”

Empress Dowager Dou nodded with satisfaction.

If it weren't for the beautiful oath of the golden house, the Empress Dowager Dou would not have promised her baby Gillian to others so lightly!

"Then you can go and sue Queen Sù......" Empress Dowager Dou waved her hand and said, "Presumably the queen is also in a hurry!" ”

For the Bo family, Empress Dowager Dou is still quite satisfied, except for not being able to have children, all of them are in line with the appearance of her daughter-in-law in her mind.

With Liu De's succession, Bo's position is basically stable.

………………

Liu De bid farewell to the Empress Dowager Dou, went out of the Yongshou Palace, and came to the Shufang Palace.

Li Xin saw Liu De from afar, so he immediately came out to greet him and asked, "Your Highness came here at this time, but is there something wrong?" ”

Liu De nodded and said, "There is indeed a big event to report!" ”

He asked, "Gong Li, is the queen mother here?" ”

Li Xin laughed awkwardly and said, "It's not a coincidence! This afternoon, His Majesty summoned the queen to Ganquan! Since His Royal Highness is a major event, he will sue the slave maid, and the slave and maid will go to Ganquan early tomorrow morning to sue the queen! ”

At this time, it was already completely dark, and it was difficult to get out of the palace at this time, as for going out of the city? Without the edict of the Son of Heaven, none of the city gate guards in Chang'an dared to let people out of the city without permission.

Liu De also shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and then told the Empress Dowager Dou that she had persuaded Su Ji.

When Li Xin heard this, his face immediately became stern, and he immediately said: "The slave maid will go out of the city, go to Ganquan at night, and Queen Tongbing!" ”

This matter must be resolved quickly, so as not to have too many dreams at night!

"Fortunately, the slave maid still has a cheap order given by the first emperor in her hand!" Li Xin sighed and said, "The slave is going to get the talisman!" ”

When Liu De heard this, he hurriedly dissuaded: "No, the first emperor gave an order, and you can't use it unless it's a crisis!" ”

The edicts and edicts given by the emperor Laozi, especially the first emperor, have copies in the palace, and after each use, a file will be established.

Li Xin's rash use of that privilege will definitely have sequelae, and he may even die because of it!

Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun En, the emperor's kindness, as a slave and maid to use at will, that is, to despise Jun En, just eunuchs, and even do not need a trial, no reason, directly beat to death.

Li Xin smiled and said: "The queen is as kind to me as a mountain, as long as the queen is doing well, how can the slave and maid be stingy?" ”

Liu De listened to it and sighed with some emotion, every time he slaughtered more dogs, he was a scholar.

In his previous life, in his Hejian Palace, there were hundreds of literati in his heyday, all of whom served with high salaries, but unfortunately, once a catastrophe came, all of them were scattered, and only the eunuch Wang Dao accompanied him to death......

"Don't be in a hurry to ...... this moment" Liu Dedao: "It's still too late to leave the city early tomorrow morning, Li Gong asked himself, if there is no Gong to assist and take care of him, with the character of the queen mother, how long can he be free in this palace?" ”

Li Xin was silent, stopped, knelt down and said, "Slave obeys!" (To be continued......)
