Rebirth of the best emperor

Chapter 253
More than 200 scholars stood in the main hall of the imperial study, together with a group of ministers, soldiers and horses, and a group of Jin Yiwei, the hall was dark and crowded.

"You must have heard about Wu Yong's father and son. I don't want to talk about the relevant situation. Here I just give you a little rebirth. I hate people who deceive me the most!"

Wang Mang sat tall on the dragon chair, looked at the crowd with a gentle face, and waved his hand: "Where is Wang Dun?"

"The student is here." A tall scholar with good features came out from the crowd, and kowtowed to Wang Mang calmly.

Wang Dun is indeed a great talent who is famous all over the world, and he is also the top of the list of scholars announced by the Ministry of Rites before. Wang Mang has heard of this person's reputation in the teahouse in Chang'an for a long time.

Seeing himself now, Wang Mang secretly praised him, as expected, he looks like a natural official. Looking at the entire group of scholars, there is no one who is more square than Wang Dun.

"Wang Dun, you are the number one person on the list that was announced before. If I follow this order, you will lose the number one position. To be precise, if your grades are not good today, then you will not be the number one person on the list. What do you think?" Wang Mang He looked at Wang Dun thoughtfully.

"Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king." Wang Dun said neither humble nor overbearing: "Students don't care about the false name of the top of the list, students only need to be bathed in the grace of His Majesty, besides, students are very confident, and the top spot is bound to be won! "

If you only listened to Wang Dun's previous words, you would think that Wang Dun was a flatterer, but when you heard the latter words, it showed Wang Dun's talent all his life.

Wang Mang didn't care about the confidence in Wang Dun's tone, and said with a smile, "Very well, I just like a confident person like you."

Waving his hand to signal Wang Dun to retreat, Wang Mang said again: "Where are the eight great eccentrics, the six immortals of Peach Valley, and the seven heroes of the frontier fortress?"

At that time, 21 scholars responded and went to meet Wang Mang in three groups. The difference was clear. When Wang Mang saw it, he knew that the eight standing together were the eight great eccentric talents.

Raising his eyebrows, Wang Mang smiled and said, "To a certain extent, what happened today was caused by you and others. What do you think?"

"Students have no idea." Everyone looked at each other, and the last scholar who seemed to be the oldest said to Wang Mang respectfully: "When I first heard the news, the students were panicked at first, but then I thought about it, Your Majesty You can arrange a thorough investigation, and the students are very happy, and think that this is the blessing of my great Qin, and it is His Majesty's sage!"

Wang Mang looked at this scholar, thought for a while, and said: "You are Gao Shi, I remember you, and to be precise, I heard Meng Yi talk about you, saying that you are a great talent of the Qin Dynasty."

"Students should not be praised by His Majesty, they are just doing what the people of Great Qin should do." Gao Shi said.

Wang Mang nodded his head and said, "You can also retreat later."

Gao Shi and others retreated accordingly, Wang Mang looked at the crowd, suddenly pointed at a thin scholar and said, "Stand up."

"Students see Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty!" The scholar walked out of the crowd with an excited face, then pushed the golden mountain and the jade pillar and knelt on the ground.

"I remember that your name is Wang Zhi. Although you are ranked third among the examinees this time, your article has really shocked many ministers. Some ministers have even asked for my important person." Wang Mang looked at Wang Zhi and smiled.

Wang Zhi said excitedly: "So, His Majesty also thinks what the student said is right."

"Right?" Wang Mang chuckled, pointed at the crowd and said, "You wrote crony theory, saying that there were small circles in the court of Great Qin, and each of these small circles had their own little ideas. Now, you tell me, Is there really a small circle in my court? Is there any clique you mentioned?"

"Yes!" Wang Zhi said a word, and the faces of countless people at the scene changed drastically.

Clique is not a simple word, it is a word that will lose your head. When the emperor asked Wang Zhi to speak, Xin Zhao came down in a cold sweat on the spot. He secretly prayed that Wang Zhi, the ancestor, would not talk nonsense. It is to die!
And if something really happened, he, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, would definitely stand up and take the blame. What a fool!

Xin Zhao, who prides himself on being a modest gentleman, scolded his mother in his heart, and the other ministers present almost cursed, which bastard recorded this Wang directly.

Wang Zhi didn't seem to feel the sudden tense atmosphere in the room at all. He calmed down and said, "Your Majesty, the students don't understand the affairs of the court, and they can't speak to the circle of the court..."

Hearing Wang Zhi speak like this, everyone present felt relieved, thinking that this kid is not hopeless.

But Wang Zhi changed the subject, pointing directly at the 21 people including the Six Immortals of Peach Valley who had just returned to the crowd and said, "But, Your Majesty, have you seen these people, friends for many years, even if they are standing in the imperial hall today, they are still standing there?" Together, they are the circle!"

Jufeng, the youngest of the Six Immortals of Peach Valley, stood up and said, "Wang Zhi, we Six Immortals of Peach Valley have never offended you, so don't talk nonsense!"

Wang Zhi seemed to have obtained some evidence, he ignored Ju Feng, and looked at Wang Mang directly, "Your Majesty, you saw that, before the students said anything, they stood up impatiently."

Jufeng was furious and wanted to say something, but was held back by the other five immortals. Li Xiao, the boss of the Six Immortals of Peach Valley, went out and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, the students have absolutely no idea of ​​forming small circles or cliques. The students' loyalty to His Majesty You can learn from the sun and the moon!"

Wang Zhi snorted, "Fang Xizhi said so, Wei Changhong said so, and Wu Yong said so."

Fang Xizhi, Wei Changhong, and Wu Yong were all important ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty and big bosses in the imperial court. They always said they were loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but in the end they were all traitors of the Great Qin Dynasty. Compared with these three treacherous ministers, even if Li Xiao had the best temper among the six fairies of Peach Valley, he couldn't help but look furious.

Before Li Xiao could speak, Wang Mang waved his hand, looked at Wang Zhi and said directly: "Okay, I understand you, and I also understand why someone is so interested in you, and even came to me for the first time. People, you wait and back away."

Hearing this, Wang Zhi immediately backed away. The Six Immortals of Peach Valley stared at Wang Zhi resentfully. It seemed that for a moment, the two parties had become enemies of life and death, and the faces of the Seven Heroes of the Frontier Fortress and others were not good-looking. Although Wang Zhi only ordered Peach Valley The name of the Six Immortals, but they can't escape Wang Zhi's so-called "circle".

Wang Dunruo looked at Wang Zhi for some reason, and felt that he was really an interesting person in his own family, and there must be some contests in the court in the future.

Wang Mang lost interest in continuing to roll the roll, and said, "Where is Xin Zhao?"

"My minister is here." Zhao Xin came out respectfully, kowtowed to Wang Mang and said, "I respectfully listen to your majesty's imperial edict."

Wang Mang secretly nodded to Zhao Xin's attitude, and said: "You are the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and the examiner is originally a matter of the Ministry of Rites. Now you come up with a question!"

Xin Zhao was stunned!
