Chapter 159: Ginger is still old and spicy
The Duke of Song Dynasty.
At this time, Xiao Yu was sitting in the study drinking tea, looking through the books casually.
He is about to be an examiner in the spring exam and will participate in the test questions, so no matter what, he still has to read the book before setting the questions.
But in your leisure time.
Suddenly, noisy footsteps and roars came from outside the door.
"What's going on outside? What's up to you?"
Xiao Yu frowned, put down his things, got up and opened the door.
I thought it was Lu Heng's group of boys who came to find trouble again, but after opening the door, he found that there were people from the Qiwang family standing outside.
The leader is Zheng Rentai.
"Xiao Xiang, there are already a lot of noise outside, why can you sit still!"
Zheng Rentai was very anxious.
He took out a roll of paper from his arms, took it and asked again:
"Have you not seen this thing yet?"
Xiao Yu was confused.
How could a mere roll of paper make Zheng Rentai so anxious?
And just looking at the paper, you will know that this must be a Chinese document in the court. Not only is the shape different from the memorial, but it is also just that kind of ordinary hemp paper, which is very cheap.
It's not a document, and the letters don't look like this.
What exactly is that?
Zheng Rentai stuffed the roll of paper into his hands without saying a word.
"Xiao Xiang, please take a look quickly. After reading it, you will know why I am so anxious!"
Xiao Yu had no choice but to take it, slowly unfolded, and looked slowly.
Look at the front, don't think there is anything.
The spring examination will be slightly changed. Your Majesty has mentioned this matter in the morning. Although many people still object, there is no big problem only in the trial implementation of Chang'an City.
After all, the biggest function of conducting papers and public recommendations is to enter the exam.
Compared with the more than 40 tribute students in Jingzhao Prefecture, tribute students from other state prefectures cannot be beaten at all.
Most of the tribute students in Jingzhao Mansion are children of powerful people. They have learned from a young family. No matter how they look at it, they cannot be less knowledgeable than those from the countryside.
Besides, His Majesty said that he would cancel the business papers and public recommendations, and add the name to the name, but the real powerful people are not afraid at all.
Even the examiner is a relative and a friend, so why are they worried that they won’t get the questions?
So when His Majesty Li Er proposed this matter, everyone just wanted to object and did not really make any trouble.
These aristocratic families in the capital do not know that if Li Shimin agreed to Lu Heng's suggestion and carried out a comprehensive reform of the imperial examination system, their final advantages would probably disappear.
Because Lu Heng also proposed another thing, called "Out of the head".
These things that have passed will not be mentioned for the time being.
But soon, Xiao Yu read the entire Chang'an newspaper roughly and then found something was wrong.
The previous article was written about some important news from the court, such as the imperial examination reform or potato production, as well as the taxes that the court may change this year, etc.
But after these news, he looked down and saw his name on it!
"...This so-called Chang'an newspaper was said on the surface that it was done by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but I'm afraid that Lu Heng is not doing it behind the scenes!"
Xiao Yu's face turned pale and his old teeth were almost broken.
He suddenly looked up at Zheng Rentai:
"Where is the Tianxia Bookstore open? I have to come to my house in person!"
Although the newspaper only wrote about the production of the East Palace on its head, there was a blank space at the end.
[Advertising space is for rent, those who are interested can go to Tianxia Bookstore for consultation.]
Not only did he openly slapped him in the face on this kind of thing, but he also looked for businessmen to advertise on it!
It's a disgrace to others...it's too much!
Zheng Rentai quickly stopped him and said:
"This matter has been affected by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If you come directly to the door and smash the ground, your Majesty will know it immediately."
"Lu Heng must not underestimate this!"
"Last time, in the clinic he opened, I met the hero next to His Majesty, He De and He's father-in-law."
"We have to go out on the surface and join forces with everyone to refute it, so that we can be the most rational!"
Xiao Yu was so angry that he was trembling all over, his old face was so green that it was unreasonable.
He could not listen to Zheng Rentai’s advice!
"So what if your Majesty knows? They are rude first!"
Xiao Yu looked at the things written in the newspaper and felt that he was riding his face by Feilong.
Although I don’t know how much this newspaper has been sold, since Zheng Rentai can see it, it must have spread all over the powerful families in Chang'an City.
He himself made a life and death case in the court and went back on his word. This is one thing.
But Lu Heng reported this matter publicly and publicized it, that was another matter!
This is no longer a personal grudge between Lu Heng and him.
Instead, it directly involves the reputation of the entire Lanling Xiao family!
As the most powerful and famous person in the Xiao family, Xiao Yu was publicly executed for his unethical things. This is a fucking thing he wants to break up!
"I will go to the Tianxia Bookstore now to talk to Lu Heng with good reason!"
Xiao Yu clenched his fists with both hands and gritted his teeth:
"Even if Your Majesty knows about this, I dare to argue with him in person!"
Seeing this, Zheng Rentai knew in his heart that he could not stop him at all.
This is normal.
If what happened today was on his own, the Zheng family might not be able to sit still.
Although Xiao Yu and Lu Hengding were originally in a life-and-death situation and committed suicide if they lost, they went back on their word... But so what?
There are so many people making bets all over the world. Will everyone who says they will die if they lose?
The lives of these powerful families are much more expensive than those of the grass-roots people.
After sighing, Zheng Rentai shook his head and said:
"Forget it."
"Xiao Xiang, you might as well bring a few young and strong people over there. Lu Heng is so good at fighting. He is a fool again. If he is forced to look at him, he may really hurt people."
Xiao Yu sneered.
He patted the folds on his robe, his face full of disdain.
"If he takes action seriously, it's just my wish."
"After all, it's impossible to say that I was beaten to death on the spot. As long as I was not dead, then Lu Heng would have to die!"
In this situation, neither the Lanling Xiao family nor Lu Heng were very rational, but the Xiao family was obviously at a more disadvantaged side.
Lu Heng just spread the story of what the Xiao family did, but the root of this matter was actually Xiao Yu himself.
Now he wants to come to the door and argue with the other party. In fact, the most fundamental purpose is to anger Lu Heng, a fool.
As long as he can anger him and let him do something against himself, he will naturally have the advantage of being a victim.
By then, even if the matter is caused by His Majesty Li Er, the Xiao family will not be in any way at all. They can even ask His Majesty to ban the newspaper and whitewash themselves!
"This is really... the ginger is still so spicy!"
Zheng Rentai is not a fool either. He understood what Xiao Yu meant.
Everything is ready now, only the east wind is not available.
