Chapter 914 (2/2)
”The fiefdom should be yours or yours. Even if you don't want it, I want to ask the court to take it back. My father and my mother should agree. At that time, your memorials were sent to me at that time. At that time, I was in the Daming Palace and under the pressure of the imperial court's advice, I was called to Xingqing Palace by my father and my mother for a full hour After the fiefdom was granted, it would be in the charge of the imperial court, but every year it should be yours. The Hubu has no money in the past two years, so it will be made up for you in a few years. ” Li Hong rubbed his forehead. Once they talked about the disaster of that year, they were all full of fear.
”Well So what can I do for you now? You can't really shut them down for a few days and then let them all go? ” Li Dan asked the maid in law to change Li Hong's tea again. Now it's late at night, and Li Hong's tea is getting thicker and thicker.Li Hong didn't object to Li Dan's taking down the tea cup. Instead, he picked from the memorials on the table. Finally, he got two pieces of memorials and handed them to each of them: ”in a few days, when your father's vertigo is cured, you can go to your respective fiefdoms. These are the students that you were asked to select from the Imperial College, the Hongwen hall, and the Chongwen hall, and the local government made progress step by step After that, let these people fill in the most basic deficiencies. As for the matter that they haven't had time for the imperial examination, they can come back to take part in the imperial examination when it is time. ”
”This Is that right? You can make an order to advance the imperial examination time... ”
”It's too late. It's too late. The imperial examination has always been a big event for the imperial court. It will take more than a month to start the imperial examination. Can't we open the imperial examination for them because of the time?”
”I see.” Li Dan nodded thoughtfully: ”it seems that many officials have come to Luoyang on my fief, so these people are...”
”Yes, in the memorial submitted by the governor of Luoyang today, there are more than 20 fiefdoms of the two of you. In addition to the number of fiefdoms granted by Li Sujie and Li Shangjin, there are more than 50 and nearly 60 officials who went to Luoyang to give advice at their own risk.” Li Hong sighed and then went on to say, ”this is enough to prove that the noble nobles headed by the five surnames and seven hopes have been purposefully writing articles in your fiefdoms on the way of recommending scholars to be officials. Therefore, this time to let you go back is to thoroughly deal with your fiefdoms, so that you will not be implicated if anything happens in the future Go in. ”
”It's a cruel and insidious means. If it wasn't for Li Shangjin, the third emperor's brother, and Li Sujie, the fourth emperor's brother, had submitted to you the trend of their fiefdom officials. I'm afraid that the event of risking one's death to remonstrate with Luoyang, the third emperor's brother and the fourth emperor's brother would inevitably be involved, so that you will become more afraid of your hands and feet in the matter of strict punishment, and you will have to consider it in the future The reason for the Royal participation. ” Li Zhe's fist was full of blue veins. He always knew it in his heart and didn't say it. Now hearing Li Hongyi's warning, he immediately understood why the fifth brother mentioned their fiefdom.
”They also know that you always protect the royal family, especially the three brothers, the emperor and the fourth emperor. When you were the crown prince, they did a lot of things with you. This time, the officials of the fiefdom risked their lives to remonstrate with you. Although it had nothing to do with us princes, it was the officials of our prince's fiefdom who participated in the advice, which made people have to bear in mind I wonder if we are also behind Nima, they are going to the death pit. We are a few! It's to make our royal family fight against each other Li Dan's chubby figure suddenly patted the armrest of the chair, stood up and scolded angrily.
Looking at the two enlightened brothers, Li Hong finally understood the cruel means of the five surnamed seven Wang, a powerful family headed by Xun GUI. He laughed knowingly, and then kicked Li Dan's leg with his foot, indicating that he should sit down without getting angry.
”However, I have not finished all the five things that I have failed to do. Since they think that so many court officials are involved, and there are other royal family members involved, they can let me ex jure grace, can not punish them, can not punish them, can only be helpless compromise, they die remonstrance, I will do the opposite, all of these officials and noble titles Li Hong's tone is very light, but listen to Li Dan and Li Zhe's ears, it is to feel a burst of atrial tremor.
”Everyone?” Li Dan and Li Zhe almost bit off their tongues. All of them add up to more than 500 people. If all of them are dismissed, won't they For the Tang Dynasty, this is more shocking than a large-scale rebellion. Moreover, no one can say whether its influence in the future is good or bad. It is good or bad for the court, the Tang Dynasty and even Li Hong.
”Yes, everyone.” Li Hong looked at the two big mouth open emperor younger brother, said firmly.
He did not tell them that when Di Renjie and others went to the boat for a secret talk, Jingwei had already told himself the contents of their secret talks. This is why he has the courage to remove officials and abolish the title of nobility on such a large scale.
At the beginning, Li Dan was asked to select scholars who were able to enter the official career, just to focus on training, hoping that one day he would be able to make suggestions for the country of chaotang and become an important official of the court.
After all, with Li Dan's temperament, he didn't restrict his words. I'm afraid that most of the scholars who had hoped to make some achievements in the official career were taken by him to engage in learning, or Li Zhe was taken to study the hot-air balloon crazily.
Therefore, Li Hong asked Li Dan to select some potential candidates for official career. He hoped that he could become a scholar in the imperial court in the future. He should focus on training and distinguishing them, so as to eliminate Li Dan and Li Zhe's coveting of them.
I didn't expect that the unintentional move, which was just to get rid of Li Dan and Li Zhe's covetous idea, has become his life-saving straw today.
