Sui and Tang Dynasties: Choose the Empire Faction at the Beginning

Since he chose to be absolutely loyal to His Royal Highness Taisun, then Yuwencheng must protect all the rights and interests of His Majesty, even the imperial power is within his protection.

Yuwen Chengdu stopped for a long time, then turned around and went back to his room to rest.

Chapter [-] This day is a day when the sun shines brightly in all areas of the Northern Sui Dynasty.

The people of all parties still left the city normally and went to the relevant places to start their day's work.

Some merchants or restaurant merchants have started to do business.

Some people who are responsible for cultivating the land go to their own fields to check the condition of the crops.

All in all, everything was carried out according to the daily routine of Da Sui, and there was no difference.

However, under this calm, there is a dark tide that is constantly surging.

Now that the imperial examination system has resumed its normal operation, and the next few days are the time for the start of the rural examination, the invigilators are ready, and the relevant examination questions have been drawn up, so they are waiting for the start of the rural examination.

Of course, some ministers in the DPRK and China will also inquire about some candidates with excellent knowledge in advance, and get acquainted with them in advance.

This can also be considered an investment, if some of these....the candidates really succeeded in becoming an official of the Da Sui because of their excellent grades.

Then this candidate will naturally become one of the subordinates of the ministers in the DPRK, which is conducive to the expansion of the power of some ministers in the DPRK.

Of course, some ministers are just adults with high or low official positions, and some powerful ministers who really have power can disdain them.

By virtue of their rights, they can completely place some suitable candidates to take the exam, and then they only need to move their rights to allow the relevant candidates to get excellent results.

Once the right is used, some candidates can even get the perfect answer to the test paper in advance.

Getting the answer also means that you can get [-]% full marks in the exam and become this year's Juren.

Of course, in the whole process, in addition to the need to use the rights to get the answers to the test questions in advance, it is also necessary to use the rights to make the subsequent exams go quite smoothly, and there will be no mistakes.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the invigilators of the previous year can make a lot of oil and water from it.

Even invigilators in remote areas can get a lot of money, which shows how corruption was at the beginning of the imperial examination system.

In addition, the current imperial examination system is still in its immature stage, and there are many things that need to be improved.

Yang Ji's purpose is to pull out... some factors that affect the imperial examination system, and also improve the imperial examination system.

But all this can only be carried out after an imperial examination, because Yang Ji needs to let the court and Chinese military officials take a good look at the shortcomings of the imperial examination system and how he can improve the imperial examination system.

Today is... when the exam begins, scholars from all over the country have rushed to the exam room to start preparing for the exam.

Invigilators from each place also arrived one after another.

A lot of scholars have gathered in front of the entrance of the examination room, and they all have dreams for several years, hoping to pass today's examination and become an official of the Great Sui Dynasty.

Becoming an official of the Great Sui Dynasty can be regarded as a glorious ancestor, and in the future, he will be able to raise his head and be a man.

There are also some aspiring scholars who want to be loyal to His Royal Highness Taisun, because today His Royal Highness Taisun is quite wise, and the recruitment of wise men from all over the world can explain everything.

It's a pity that when we recruited the world's wise men, the requirements in all aspects were very strict, and some scholars were eliminated after barely a few days.

Moreover, being able to become a minister beside His Royal Highness Taisun by recruiting scholars from all over the world is not something that can be compared with the imperial examination system.

However, for these scholars, as long as they enter the Great Sui Dynasty as an official, it is not impossible to be loyal to His Royal Highness Taisun.

All of these are opportunities, and people like this are worthy of their following.

"start!"

An official came out and shouted, and then someone opened the door, and the test was officially tested.

Many candidates quickly entered the examination room and began to prepare to answer the questions.

Just as the candidates began to enter the field one after another, the seemingly bright imperial examination system also ushered in a dark side... Some invigilators have already handed over prepared answers to some candidates.

There are also some invigilators who directly distribute the completed test papers to the candidates, and those candidates need to sleep immediately.

In other words, the jinshi has been reserved, and it is impossible for some candidates to pass this part of the exam.

Even if some candidates are so good, they can still get full marks, but the next choice will be another part of the candidates. This is the dark and sad part of the imperial examination system at the beginning.

This is why the penalties for fraud are quite severe.

The examination room was silent, and some invigilators were very happy to twist their mustaches. They had already started to count in their hearts how much money they had made this year.

Which lord gave the money, how much did the lord give... etc... things.

As for that part of the preparation for a long time, just for today's examinees, it was completely ignored by the invigilators.

Many officials participated in the fraud of the imperial examination system, but it is interesting that some powerful officials did not participate in it, such as Yu Wenhua and others.

After all, their sense of smell is quite sensitive, and they have already sensed that His Highness is probably preparing to make a big move.

...Tai Sun East Palace.

Yang Ji was flipping through the books in his hands in the dormitory, and the books in his hands were all famous books.

It involves quite a lot of content, including the art of war and the governance of the country.

Huhu.

A gust of wind blew, and there was a sound from the open window.

"My minister Pei Min asks to see His Highness."

With the breeze blowing, a voice sounded.

"Enter."

Yang Ji said lightly.

Then Pei Min lifted up his robe and walked in from outside the hall.

"My minister sees Your Highness."

After the main hall today, Pei Min bowed and saluted.

"Free gift."

Yang Ji waved his hand, and then gave a futon to Pei Min.

"Any information?"

Yang Ji asked lightly, still maintaining the posture of turning over the silk book in his hand.

"Returning to your Highness, the imperial examination system has already begun, and the procedures are the same as before, except that most ministers did not participate in it."

Pei Min said in a deep voice.

"It seems that not everyone is a fool."

The corners of Yang Ji's mouth raised slightly, and at this time he slowly closed the book in his hand.

"Your Highness, do you want to start the case?"

Pei Min asked.

This time, there are still people who are corrupt in the imperial examination system, and the invigilators are known to break the law, all of which need to be severely punished.

"Wait until the end of the imperial examination system and arrest all the invigilators."

Yang Ji said with a cold look in his eyes.

When he said these words, the temperature around him seemed to drop even lower.

"Yes!"

Pei Min cupped his hands in response, and then quickly retreated from the Prince's bedroom.

"The people involved are all ministers who should be dealt with by the Great Sui Dynasty."

Yang Ji murmured to himself.

Chapter [-] The next day.

After the end of the court meeting, Yang Ji stood up in the direction of the harem.

Originally, he planned to go directly to the second hall to handle political affairs, but his grandmother asked him to go to the harem in the middle.

Although Yang Ji didn't know what his grandmother was going to do, he had no choice but to head towards the harem.

When he arrived at the harem, Yang Ji was dumbfounded.

The harem is already decorated with lanterns, and the maids of all parties are busy arranging things.

In general, there are only a few things to set up the harem, that is... the emperor accepts the concubine, or the prince chooses the concubine and the grandson chooses the concubine.

The answer is obvious, that is... Begin to prepare for Yang Ji's draft girl, once you choose two show girls, then you can determine the Taisun Concubine and Taisun Concubine.

It's just that Yang Ji couldn't think of it, even if he wants to draft a girl, there is no reason to be in such a hurry. It was only a few days when he mentioned the draft girl.

And he didn't even know when the harem began to be arranged.

"Ji'er, but still satisfied"

Empress Xiao walked over with a smile and asked.

Yang Ji's face twitched slightly, but his mind was still more shocked.

"Grandmother, is this too hasty?"

Yang Ji asked with a smile.

"Are you in a hurry? Grandma has asked for your consent. Since everyone agrees, the sooner the better."

Queen Xiao said with a smile.

For Empress Xiao, the sooner the draft girl can get married to her great-grandson, the sooner she will be able to hug her great-grandson.

"As long as it is arranged by the imperial grandmother, Ji'er is satisfied."

Yang Ji said helplessly, then he and his grandmother walked around the entire harem before leaving the harem and heading towards the second hall.

When Yang Ji arrived in the second hall, it was already three quarters of noon, and most of the time was spent looking at the arrangement of the harem, which made Yang Ji a little dumbfounded.

When he came to the second hall and sat down on the futon, Yang Ji's desk displayed the national conditions of the past few days.

Among them, the Ministry of Household has the most memorials, which basically recorded a series of taxation situations in Daqin in recent days.
