Even though the imperial examination system for selecting officials had already been implemented during the Sui Dynasty.
However, the system was not abolished. Until Li Shimin changed the year title to Zhenguan, 70% to 80% of the officials in the court were elected.
Ancient books were very expensive. Most of the people who could afford to read them were from aristocratic families.
The Five Surnames and Seven Distinguished Families, Guanzhong Nobles, and Shandong Nobles had rich experience in managing countries since ancient times.
After Li Er launched the Xuanwu Gate rebellion, he was still able to sit on the throne because of the support of the Shandong aristocratic families.
However, as the imperial power stabilized, Second Emperor Li's thoughts began to come alive.
He was very ambitious and absolutely did not want to be an emperor who was restrained by others everywhere!
Now that he had seized this opportunity, he could not only suppress the great clans, but also resolve his long-troubled Eastern Turks.
He had to do it!
"Any more questions? If not, retreat!"
Li Shi Min looked around the noisy hall and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, even if we can gather rations, I think this matter is still open to discussion!”
"That's right, Your Majesty. Our Great Tang has just returned to the right track, and it is truly not a good time for us to engage in a large-scale war.”
"The Turks won't be able to recover from this disaster in at least three years. We still have plenty of time, so there's no need to rush!”
......
Voices of opposition began to gradually appear in the Imperial Court.
Li Shi Min watched everything silently and didn't say anything to stop it.
Seeing that the Emperor was silent, the ministers objected even more vigorously. For a moment, the hall became extremely noisy!
After a while, Second Emperor Li suddenly lost his temper!
"Rest? How?”he said angrily.
Seeing him lose his temper, the officials were shocked!
The noise in Taiji Palace suddenly stopped, and it instantly fell silent!
"You also know that the Turks will definitely pillage the south after this disaster!”
"We can indeed hold the line of defense and repel them.”
"However, have you ever considered the people in the border areas?”
"How many calamities will they suffer in these years?”
"Thieves can't be stopped. The only way to solve the problem is to eliminate the source!”
Li Shiming slowly stood up from his chair and said passionately,
"This Emperor does not have many soldiers and horses, and his rations are also pitifully little. If he does not even have the courage to fight to the death, what else does this Emperor have?”
"Everyone says that Jie Li's cavalry is the best in the world and no one dares to compete with them.”
"Alright, then zhen will have a match with him.”
"Let the people of the Great Tang know that there is an Emperor in this world who can save their lives!”
"Using a bloody battle to save countless battles!”
"Don't you think it's worth it?"
After he finished speaking, Taiji Palace was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
After a while.
" Your Majesty is right!!"
"This subject is willing to be the vanguard, willing to give up this hundred and ten catties of meat to fight to the death!”
"Fight!"
"Kill the thief as soon as possible. This is a heaven-sent opportunity!!”
"This old man will risk my life to take Jie Li's head!!”
Li Er's words greatly stirred the emotions of the various generals!
Almost everyone felt their blood boiling!
For a time, there were countless requests for battle!
The general trend was set!
The ministers exchanged glances.
Going north to fight Jie Li was already a sure thing!
This time, no one could stop the Guanzhong aristocratic families from bleeding!
......
After the retreat.
"How did Your Majesty suddenly become so good at planning?”
"This method of taking drastic measures really makes me admire and feel a little ashamed.”
Du Ruhui sighed as he walked out.
"This move will not only regain the hearts of the people, but also strike the Guanzhong Group.”
"It's really too brilliant. I, as a so-called strategist, don't know what to do!”
"I didn't think of these things at all. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed!”
"I'm afraid that His Majesty will be dissatisfied with me!”
"Keming, don't belittle yourself." Fang Xuanling consoled him." There's something else going on.”
Du Ruhui stopped in his tracks." What do you mean?”
"Your Majesty, this is the guidance of an expert!”Fang Xuanling looked at him meaningfully.
"Do you know that if you sprinkle salt on the snow, the snow will quickly melt?”
"Do you know that fresh and green vegetables can be grown in the middle of winter?”
......
Fang Xuanling's series of questions left Du Ruhui dumbfounded!
This was unheard of!
Wasn't that a fantasy?
"Don't tease me. How can there be green vegetables in winter? This is against the Heavenly Dao!"
"Even if salt can melt snow, who would do that?”
"The price of salt is now more expensive than gold. Only a fool would do that!”
Du Ruhui shook his head and said.
"His Majesty may leave the palace again in the near future. At that time, you can apply to go with him.”
"When you see that expert, you'll understand. No matter how much I say now, you won't believe me!”
"Is there really an expert?" Du Ruhui was bursting with curiosity." What does an expert do? Where does he live now?”
"Haha." Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and laughed.”
"As for what he does, use his own words.”
"Farming!"
