Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

From the Warring States period to the present, ancient and modern China and foreign countries.

The same is true.

The only lesson humans have learned from history is that humans have learned nothing from history and are forever repeating the same mistakes because human nature has never changed since ancient times.

Negative emotions spread among the common people and scholars.

And the descendants of aristocratic families who were fortunate enough to be in nearby restaurants or other nearby places couldn't help smiling when they saw the resentful people and scholars.

At the same time rejoice,

I was born in a family, not these humble families in front of me.

Nothing has changed.

The negativity persists.

Until Shenshi in the afternoon [3-4 p.m.], a group of Jinwu Guards in armor walked from far to near, and walked into Zhuque Street in a strict military posture.

Everyone watched them, not knowing why the Jinwu Guard in the palace appeared outside the imperial city.

"Your Majesty has an order! Well aware of the changes in Chang'an Bookstore today, Your Majesty is well aware of it, and will give an explanation to all scholars in the world at noon tomorrow!!"

The leading general of the Jinwu Guard held the imperial list high in the sky, spoke loudly, and posted the imperial list at the entrance of the Chuhe Restaurant after speaking.

The voice fell.

In an instant.

stunned!

Shock!

Excited! !

Laugh boldly! !

When all the people and scholars heard that the emperor knew about the bookstore, they were so excited that they were about to dance.

"Hahaha, Your Majesty knows! Your Majesty knows that there are no books for sale in our city!!"

"Yes, that is to say, those treacherous officials did not deceive His Majesty, or...they could not deceive such a wise Majesty!!"

"Your Majesty will explain to us, and with His Majesty's attitude towards us, you can definitely give us a solution! We will have books to read!!"

"Hahaha, the whole world celebrates, the whole world celebrates!!"

The people were extremely excited.

Although they are in a humble position, they have eyes to see what those in power do.

Just like the former emperor Yang Guang, the people didn't see each other with their own eyes, but they could know the cruelty from his decrees.

As for Li Shimin, all kinds of government orders are biased towards the common people. Why are they unhappy when he speaks out about the imperial examination? !

"Hmph, a bunch of idiots."

"I'm living in my own fantasy world."

The son of a family with a restaurant snorted disdainfully, very contemptuously.

Those people don't know the truth, but they do know that all the books in Chang'an City are in the hands of the big families. Where did Li Shimin get the books?Even if the sky falls, there must be a sound!But now there is no sound! !

And Li Shimin announced the imperial list, and he will give an explanation tomorrow. The only possibility is to cancel the imperial examination.

These are the different results brought about by the information gap.

The common people don't know the truth, and don't know that all the books in Chang'an City are controlled by the aristocratic family. They only know that His Majesty speaks out, and that is a good policy for them, because it has always been like this before.

And the children of the aristocratic family knew that the books were in the hands of the big families. Even if Li Shimin got the books from other cities, it would take time, and it was impossible to get them tomorrow. The only possibility was to make fun of the imperial examination.

Different information gaps bring different ideas.

But the two waves of people were all smiling.

"Hehe, I really want to see these stupid people, and tomorrow I will hear Li Shimin, who they have the most high hopes for, express their expressions after canceling the imperial examination."

A child from an aristocratic family smiled cheerfully, narrowed his eyes slightly, and continued: "What kind of expression will you have at that time, disappointed? Helpless? Frustrated? Haha, that is really an interesting scene."

"Yes, yes, these troublemakers still want to use a broken imperial examination to be equal to the elders of our family. Go ahead and dream! Our major families, such as the five surnames and seven wangs, have existed for thousands of years, and there are a few short ones. Generations, our efforts of several generations, why should we lose to you?!"

There are also children of aristocratic families who have spoken out, thinking that their family's current status is due to the efforts of their ancestors, and it is impossible to be defeated by a paper answer sheet due to emotion and reason.

The commotion and confusion continued.

At this time, there are people who are happy and weeping with joy.

The general of the Jinwu Guard looked at these people and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

At this moment, someone came up to remind him.

"General, it's time for us to go to the next place to post the imperial list."

The general of the Jinwu Guard regained his serious expression, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Go!"

He waved his hand and led the team away.

Only two Jinwu guards were left to maintain order and protect the imperial list from being torn up by those who want to.

After they left, the people let go of their hands and feet completely, and were extremely excited. People they didn't know everywhere hugged and danced together.

Suzaku Restaurant, second floor.

He Shen looked at this scene from the window, and said in amazement: "Tsk tsk, why is this notice posted in our restaurant? Your Majesty, he really is, it really shouldn't be."

Fang Miaozhu came over with a guqin in hand, and said with a smile: "Mr. He, what His Majesty has done will bring popularity to Zhuque Restaurant. It's Shen Shi, just now, Cai Miaozhu saw that there were not many customers in the restaurant, and now a swarm of bees came in. "

He Shen touched his bald head, and said with emotion: "Oh, Ms. Miaozhu, it's because there are more customers, so I'm worried. I haven't rested for a long time, and I have to get busy again. I'm exhausted."

Fang Miaozhu's beautiful eyes flickered, and she asked tentatively, "Then, do you need Miaozhu's help?"

He Shen shook his head with a smile, and said, "No, He is just complaining and complaining. Today, Ms. Miaozhu, you should rest well and recharge your spirits. Tomorrow, you will be helping Chuhe Restaurant and Your Highness."

Fang Miaozhu pursed her red lips, nodded and lowered her eyebrows and said, "Okay, Miaozhu knows."

………………

Changsun House.

Changsun Wuji summoned Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and many pro-Li faction officials to discuss ways to break the situation since leaving Taiji Palace, but there has been no result.

One word, worry! !

It can be said that their own interests are tied to His Majesty's, and they will be prosperous and all will suffer.

If the imperial examination cannot be carried out, it will be their and His Majesty's failure.

"Damn, really, there is no way?!"

"That's right... There is no way. All the books are controlled by the family. It's all the books. How can we make a comeback?"

"Indeed, it is necessary to pay attention to the possibility of making a comeback. In our hands, apart from the books at home and some scholars outside, where else can we get books? With the current stock of books in our hands, There is no way to supply the scholars in Chang'an City, and even if we put together thousands of books and distribute them, those scholars will think that our court is choked by the aristocratic family and can only get these thousand books, and those aristocratic families will also Make fun of us endlessly, it is better not to post."

"Damn, for the current plan, it seems...possible, the only thing left is to cancel the imperial examination. Although we are very unwilling, but we...really failed."

Looking at the officials who were not optimistic, Changsun Wuji didn't know what to say.

after all.

Even he himself has already thought of persuading His Majesty to cancel the imperial examination.

Just now.

A servant of the eldest grandson walked in and whispered a few words in the ear of eldest grandson Wuji.

Changsun Wuji's eyes widened instantly, and he said hastily, "Quickly, invite General Li in."

"Understood, sir."

The servant hurriedly bowed and left.

Now many officials were surprised.

Wei Zheng asked, "Eldest grandson Pushe, what happened?"

Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "I don't know, I just know that General Li Yan is here."

Li Yan! !

General of the Jinwu Guard! !

A person His Majesty trusts! !

His arrival often represents His Majesty's order.

The pupils of all officials flickered.

soon.

Li Yan, dressed in elite armor, entered the door. When he saw many officials here, he was slightly taken aback, and immediately laughed.

"Changsun Pushe, I really didn't expect that there are so many officials in your mansion. This saves Li from running around."

Changsun Wuji was a little surprised.

"Oh? Your Majesty is not only looking for this old man?!"

Li Yan nodded and said, "That's right, His Majesty is looking for all the officials present, all the officials of the aristocratic family, and especially all the people in Chang'an City!!"

"Your Majesty, at noon tomorrow, I will inform you about the results of the imperial examination!!"

The voice fell.

All the officials widened their eyes instantly.

Unwilling!

Helpless!

Powerless! !

It's time to come, is it still coming?

At this juncture, they have not found a solution to the announcement of the imperial examination. The only way His Majesty can find is to cancel it.

in this way,

That's fine, that's fine! !

If the province is indecisive, it will be chaotic.

Just cut the mess with a sharp knife! !

Li Yan had a panoramic view of their expressions, and said with a smile: "It seems that the officials have some guesses about His Majesty's decision, but Li wants to tell you, you are wrong!!"

Wei Zheng asked, "General Li, what do you say?"

Li Yan revealed an inscrutable smile.

"This is because His Majesty has found a way to break the situation, so that all the aristocratic families can't believe the way to break the situation!!"

"Everyone, at noon tomorrow, just wait and see the good show. Li still needs to notify other officials, so he will leave first and leave."

Li Yan bowed his hands and resigned, leaving without delay.

He is only responsible for notifying the pro-Lee faction officials.

Even for these officials, most officials cannot tell the truth.

This is what Li Shimin ordered.

One is that it takes too much time, and the other is to put a veil of mystery on yourself, so that the pro-Li faction officials will become more convinced that they insist on choosing the Li Tang royal family, and there is nothing wrong with it! !

Loyalty is what needs to be maintained.

And surprises can bring more loyalty.

After Li Yan left, the officials started discussing it.

"What does Your Majesty mean by this?!"

"Perhaps... His Majesty has his own considerations, but His Majesty said that it can solve the situation, but is it true?!"

"Changsun Pushe, do you know the inside story?!"

Many officials looked at Changsun Wuji, who was the closest person to Li Shimin, and he was the first to know of any disturbances in Li Shimin.

At this time,
