Both in the Lake Pavilion and in the Freehand Garden, the two sides had stolen half a day of leisure. In the Freehand Garden came the long-forgotten Princess Taiping. The conversation between Cao Changqing and Lu Baijie appeared to be boundless and unrestrained. For some reason, they brought up Zhang Julu's earth-shaking governance. The Liyang Dynasty followed the old system of Three Provinces and Six Ministries. Among the three provinces, the Shangshu Province had the greatest responsibility and was divided into six ministries. The Shangshu Ministers of the Six Ministries were fully deserving of the title of First Minister of the Imperial Court.

The Shangshu Ministers of the Six Ministries were fully deserving of the title of First Minister of the Imperial Court. The Shangshu Ministers of the Six Ministries At that time, it immediately attracted a lot of criticism. Firstly, it was said that this purple-bearded, blue-eyed man had forgotten his roots. Secondly, it was said that he only dared to pick soft persimmons to bully.
Cao Changqing said softly, "Selecting scholars for poetry is an ancient method. Of course, it's empty and unrefined. Writing a good poem may not be able to govern the world well. But if we select Confucian scholars according to Zhang Biyan's eight-paragraph essay, it's hard to say how big the pros and cons are."
Mr. Tangxi Lu Baijie said with a laugh, "I originally thought that Mr. Cao's method of dealing with Grand Secretary Zhang was a forceful whipping."
Cao Changqing shook his head and said, "A carp leaping over the dragon's gate. Zhang Julu is personally erecting a dragon's gate for the scholars. This kind of grand and magnificent style is only inferior to Huang Longshi. Once this method was put out, if it was successful and spread throughout the world, it would be equivalent to finding a smooth path for the poor scholars. The foundation of the rich and powerful families would be shaken again. Zhang Julu was indeed talented in economics. He was well aware of the principle that it was better to let loose than to block the will of the people. The Spring and Autumn Period was precisely because he had completely blocked the path of the people's advancement, which led to the chaos. It's just that those aristocratic families aren't all blind. "
At this point, Cao Changqing stopped talking.
Lu Baijie couldn't help but smile wryly. Didn't the open-minded elder brother Lu Daolin also detest the eighth stage? Let alone people like Yuan Jiangyan. It was only because Zhang Julu was currently favored like the sun in the midday sky, the emperor supporting him without holding back that he had to swallow his anger. No matter how great the favor was, there would always be a day when it would weaken. When the time came, the rich and powerful families would erupt in anger, what would happen to Zhang Julu, heaven knew. With Zhang Julu's insight, it wasn't necessarily that he didn't see this hidden danger, the deeper the rebound, the greater the danger. It was just that he didn't know why this first pillar of the dynasty always insisted on doing this. Cao Changqing was outside of the situation. Moreover, unlike Lu Baijie, who had been focused on martial arts for many years, he could see the general trend of the world more clearly. The reason why he admired that blue-eyed man was because this person had a deep fear of Beiliang Xu Xiao, and even had a prejudice against the big shots of the Ministry of War headed by Gu Jiantang. However, it wasn't limited to the struggle for power in the imperial court. In the true sense, he was resolute in his plans for the long term stability of the dynasty. If it was an outstanding figure with the slightest desire for power, he would spend a lot of energy to deal with a prince with a different surname, Xu Xiao, or even the six vassal princes to stabilize his position in the emperor's heart. However, Zhang Julu was different. For the sake of the overall situation, he was willing to work together with Gu Jiantang to plan things together, and could confide in the elders of the Eight Kingdoms. Cao Changqing was good at observing the situation and was good at judging the situation. He could roughly see that Zhang Julu might have done a great favor to the Liyang Dynasty when he was alive, so much so that even the title of Chief Scholar and posthumous title of Wenzheng were insufficient to describe his great achievements. However, after his death, he would most likely bring disaster to his family. He was far less intelligent than the black-clothed sickly tiger Yang Taisui. Cao Changqing sighed in his heart.
As scholars, we will not pass on this responsibility!
It is a pity that Zhang Julu was not born in West Chu.
Lu Baijie wanted to say something but hesitated.
Cao Changqing smiled and said, "Tang Xi, if you have something to say, say it."
Lu Baijie, who had already guessed the inside story, went straight to the point and asked, "Is he not afraid that His Royal Highness will take the initiative to join forces with Zhao Gou? Not only will he be able to keep Princess Taiping, but he will also be able to express his loyalty to the court?"
Cao Changqing laughed and said, "That is good. To tell you the truth, this kind of seemingly unreasonable move is exactly what Cao Changqing wants."
The old God of Swords, who had been kicking at the side, laughed coldly and interrupted, "Don't worry. That Xu fellow is not that stupid."
Cao Changqing did not think much of it. He slowly got up and walked out of the Freehand Garden.
The old man with the sheepskin fur coat sighed and said, "This Old Man can roughly guess how this fellow will end up. Scholars are full of evil tricks. Sigh, it looks like that Xu fellow is going to lose this time. "
The green-clothed Cao Guanzi came to the pavilion.
Jiang Ni just happened to come out of the pavilion and stand on the steps.
Cao Changqing bowed and said, "If the princess wants to marry into the Beiliang Palace, Cao Changqing can leave today."
Jiang Ni looked as if he had been struck by lightning, his face pale.
If some things are not said clearly and you deceive yourself and others, you can be muddle-headed for the rest of your life and play around easily.
But if it is said clearly, even immortals have no leeway to mediate.
In the pavilion, Hsu Fengnian subconsciously raised his hand, as if he wanted to pull something, but he put it down in the end.
Lifting something is not heavy, but putting it down is difficult.
Jiang Ni turned his head and glanced at His Royal Highness, who was always frivolous and always had a smile on his face.
Hsu Fengnian, who was sitting cross-legged on the bench, smiled and waved his hand.
Cao Changqing said expressionlessly, "Cao Changqing will definitely keep his promise."
Hsu Fengnian withdrew his smile and only said one word.
"Scram!"
