"As long as all the power of the dynasty is concentrated in the hands of the emperor, there will be no civil and military discord."
"No one can disobey the emperor's will."
"Whether it's civil servants or military generals, if they have no power, how can they fight for and discord?"
After saying this, Li Yuanxiu bowed to Ye Qingyun.
"These are all my shallow opinions, which made Mr. Ye laugh." ??
Ye Qingyun nodded, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
to be honest.
The two questions Ye Qingyun asked were purely based on his whim.
But Li Yuanxiu's answer really made Ye Qingyun appreciate it very much.
At least this Li Yuanxiu is a person with ideas and a certain understanding of the royal way.
Whether it is the first question of uniting everything against foreign enemies.
Still on the second question, the practice of strengthening imperial power and suppressing civil and military forces is actually a manifestation of kingliness.
In Ye Qingyun's memory, anyone who does this can basically become a hero.
And this Li Yuanxiu really has a bit of the hero in him.
"Good answer."
Ye Qingyun smiled.
This made the other two princes a little panicked.
They all looked at Li Yuanxiu with jealous eyes and murmured in their hearts.
Li Yuanxiu, who usually keeps a low profile and is the most low-key among the princes, turns out to be so extraordinary.
Li Tianmin also didn't expect that his fourth son, who had never received much attention from him, would actually be praised by Ye Qingyun.
He and Queen Changsun looked at each other.
Everyone can see the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Your Majesty, I have one last question."
Ye Qingyun said.
"Master Ye, it's okay to ask."
Li Tianmin said.
Ye Qingyun looked at the three princes in front of him.
"This last question, I want to ask the three princes, if one day, you three will board the
What do you want to do most when you get the throne?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three princes changed drastically.
They couldn't help but look at Li Tianmin.
But he saw that Li Tianmin looked as usual and didn't care.
"You can answer whatever Mr. Ye asks. This is a school exam. There is no need to taboo anything."
Li Tianmin spoke up.
Hearing what Li Tianmin said, the three princes also breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Qingyun’s question was really too outrageous.
What would you most like to do if you ascended the throne?
Who dares to answer this easily?
If he really answered, wouldn't it make his father feel jealous of him?
Fortunately, Li Tianmin didn't care about this.
"Your Highness, you should answer first."
Ye Qingyun looked at Li Yuanhao.
Li Yuanhao thought for a while.
"If I ascend the throne of God, what I want to do most is to expand my territory and make the Tang Dynasty more prosperous!"
Ye Qingyun nodded.
"Where is the third prince?"
Li Yuanfeng said, "Like my second brother, I also want to open up territory for the Tang Dynasty and establish unparalleled achievements!"
Ye Qingyun hummed and looked directly at Li Yuanxiu.
He was looking forward to Li Yuanxiu's different answers.
Instead of being like the third prince Li Yuanfeng, his answers every time are similar to those of the second prince Li Yuanhao.
A total follower.
Whatever the second child said, the third child would follow suit.
It's like he has no opinion of his own at all.
"If I ascend to the throne of God, there will be many things I want to do, but if I say what I want to do most, it must be to revise the imperial examination system."
Li Yuanxiu said.
As soon as these words came out, several people were all the same
Startled.
"Oh? Why do you want to modify the imperial examination system?"
Ye Qingyun asked.
"Because today's imperial examination system is too rigid and has some major drawbacks, it has made it difficult for students from many places in the Tang Dynasty to stand out from the imperial examination, and many talents have been buried."
Li Yuanxiu said calmly.
"Absurd!" .??.??
The second prince Li Yuanhao immediately scolded him.
"The Imperial Examinations of our Tang Dynasty have lasted for hundreds of years. They were customized by several sages in the past of our Tang Dynasty. How could you change them at your request?"
Li Yuanxiu glanced at Li Yuanhao.
"The system hundreds of years ago may have been good at the time, but now it is no longer appropriate."
"Take the imperial examination quota in each place as an example, it is very inappropriate."
"The Tang Dynasty has a vast territory, with a total of thirteen states. Each state is different in size and has a different number of people."
"For example, Liangzhou, the most barren land, has the smallest number of people and few students. Therefore, the sages hundreds of years ago only gave Liangzhou only ten places for imperial examination selection."
Li Yuanxiu shook his head.
"Although there are few students in Liangzhou, there are tens of thousands of young students!"
"They studied hard in the cold, so that one day they could take part in the imperial examination and serve the Tang Dynasty."
"How many Liangzhou students have been blocked from these twenty imperial examination selection places?"
"And in Yongzhou, where the population is the largest, there are naturally more students, so there are more places!"
"But I looked at the list of the top three in the imperial examinations of the Tang Dynasty in the past ten years, and there were only two people from Yongzhou."
"And what about the Liangzhou students with the fewest places? There are seven of them!!!"
"This has shown that there is a big problem with the current imperial examination quota. Perhaps Datang has buried many talents invisibly."
At this point, Li Yuanxiu seemed to feel that he had gone too far.
"Father, I have made a mistake.
!”
Li Tianmin waved his hand.
"It doesn't matter."
Then he looked at Ye Qingyun.
"Mr. Ye, what do you think?"
Ye Qingyun took a deep look at Li Yuanxiu.
"Let the three highnesses go and take a rest first."
"Okay, you three go out first."
"My son, please retire!"
All three people retreated.
Ye Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, Queen, actually you two already have the answer in your mind, don't you?"
Li Tianmin and Empress Changsun both nodded.
Three questions have been asked, and several princes have answered them.
The results are also obvious.
The fourth prince Li Yuanxiu’s answer was the most brilliant.
It can even be said that he crushed several other princes.
It can be said that Li Yuanxiu has left a deep impression on Li Tianmin and Queen Changsun.
"I really didn't expect that this kid Yuan Xiu is so outstanding."
Li Tianmin was filled with emotion.
"Yes, Yuan Xiu, this kid, has always been very low-key on weekdays. Compared to several princes, he doesn't stand out. I didn't expect that he always has a strategy."
Empress Changsun also said the same thing.
Ye Qingyun smiled.
"Since both of you already know what's going on, I don't need to say anything more."
"Then it's decided that Yuan Xiu will be crowned prince."
After Li Tianmin finished speaking, he looked at Ye Qingyun expectantly.
"If this kid Yuan Xiu had Master Ye's guidance, he would definitely be a good emperor, ten times better than me!"
Ye Qingyun waved his hand.
"Your Majesty, please don't have too high expectations of me. Perhaps under my guidance, His Highness the Fourth Prince will become mediocre."
"Hahaha, this is absolutely impossible!"
