Chapter 970 Undercurrent Surges
In a remote small courtyard of the county government, Fang Ruishan looked at several elderly people with a serious face.
"Several old brothers!"
Fang Ruishan opened his mouth slowly, with an extremely serious expression, and shouted in a deep voice: "Your Majesty's words, I have already conveyed them to you."
Dugu Shan asked: "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this? Xiao Fang, tell me."
On the surface of the two, Dugushan is much younger.
But Dugu Shan is a master at the level of Zhan Zun, and his strength is powerful, so his face is radiant.
Fang Ruishan looks old, that's because he is just a Zhanzong, and his actual age is a hundred years younger than Dugushan.
The rest of them also had dark faces.
Fang Ruishan shouted in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is beating us and warning us. He has given us great power. I ask all of you here, are you satisfied with the current power?"
Everyone nodded silently, including Dugu Shan.
Dugu Mountain used to be very powerful, but now he is in charge of all the soldiers and horses of Qingluo Kingdom. There is no emperor to restrict him all the time, and his power is extremely inflated.
After seeing everyone's stance, Fang Ruishan shouted in a deep voice: "I know that some of you are forming cliques, and some of you hope to gain more support and control yourself more power.
Because human desires are unlimited. "
When he said these words, Dugu Shan's eyes slowly swept across the crowd, these words were meant for them.
Fang Ruishan continued: "What I want to tell you is that your power is given by His Majesty, no matter how many people you win over, once His Majesty is dissatisfied, your power will disappear in an instant.
In the past, His Majesty of the Qingluo Kingdom recruited all of us to serve him. What happened?
Under the beating of His Majesty today, why don't you surrender your power obediently? "
Dugu Shan said: "Xiao Fang, we all know the truth you said, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Fang Ruishan's icy eyes swept over everyone's faces, and he shouted in a deep voice: "What I want to say is, you must be careful about the forces that flatter you and belong to you.
Once those forces do stupid things, they will implicate you and make the power you have now disappear instantly.
If they are stupid, they are against us. We must join forces to deal with him.
Whoever dares to be stupid in this imperial examination, the old man will be the first to spare him. "
Dugu Shan followed up and said: "This commander can't spare him either."
Fang Ruishan shouted: "So, take advantage of this time, you should warn what should be warned, and what should be severed should be severed. Do what you should do, and don't come to us when something happens.
The old man puts the words here, whoever has an accident by himself at that time, don't blame us for joining forces to deal with you. "
The discussion was very short, and many expressed their opinions, saying that they would definitely monitor the imperial examination this time.
As for what they think in their hearts, only they know.
Outside the door, a ripple in the air slowly surged, and then disappeared.
In the county government office, there was a ripple of air around Yue Chen, and then Lin Xiaoyi appeared.
Lin Xiaoyi squatted beside Yue Chen, whispering the content of the conversation between Fang Ruishan and others just now.
Yue Chen smiled lightly, and said: "Fang Ruishan is a fine man, he won't be stupid at this time. Dugushan has mastered the army and formed a system of his own. He doesn't like those people who took the imperial examination.
Hehehe, it's hard to say who will come next.
Wei Zhongxian. "
"The old slave is here!" Wei Zhongxian bowed quickly.
Yue Chen said lightly: "Keep an eye on these people, I want to know their every move, if possible, I even want to know every move of their servants."
Wei Zhongxian said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, this old slave has placed people in all the palaces of officials above the fourth rank in the court...Your Majesty, do you think they will..."
"People's hearts are separated by belly, who knows." Yue Chen said indifferently, "It's true that I gave them power, but Fang Ruishan's words are too literal.
Their power was given by me. But if I want to handle the things I handed over to them, I still have to hand them over to the people below them.
So they also need to give some benefits to the people below.
This requires trade-offs and their control over the people below.
My bottom line is that benefits can be given.
However, it cannot be given in matters of scientific research.
This is the foundation of the country and my bottom line, which cannot be shaken. "
Wei Zhongxian nodded silently. After hearing these words, he knew that he had to make all the people below move, and he must not spoil Yue Chen's big event.
With the reform of the scientific examination rules, all scholars across the country are in high spirits.
Many people can't wait to rush into the examination room and show what they have learned.
The eve of the scientific examination.
late at night.
In Qingluo Kingdom's imperial capital, even though it was late at night, the streets were still noisy.
The big people enjoy the rich life at night, and the little people who are energetic will take to the streets and cook some delicacies for the young men and women to taste.
A man in black pushed open the door of a desolate yard, and then entered a small house.
In the room, a man in Chinese clothes and a metal mask stood with his back to the door.
The man in black knelt down on one knee and said to the masked man, "My lord, I'm ready, please give me your order."
The masked man said: "The people above said that Yue Chen is too arrogant, and he wants to cut off the lifeblood of our dignitaries at this moment, and he must not be allowed to succeed easily.
Can you be sure of the people you have prepared? "
The man in black lowered his head and said, "Don't worry, my lord, you will be safe."
The masked man said: "After the matter is successful, you have made a great contribution."
The man in black said in a low voice: "Then, the superior promised the subordinate?"
The masked man snorted coldly: "What matters to you, in the eyes of the big shot, is just a matter of one sentence, go ahead."
"Yes!" The man in black responded, and then slowly exited the room and the courtyard, gradually melting into the darkness.
The hustle and bustle of Qingluo City is still there, there are countless things happening here every night, no matter big or small, people are used to it.
The next morning, the expedition finally started.
Qingluo Country, in Yongning County.
Yue Ling sat cross-legged in the air, with a huge square below him.
At this moment, the square was fenced off, and the city guards sent people to stand at each post five steps apart, preventing idlers from approaching and affecting the performance of the candidates.
Tables and chairs are placed in the square, and each table and chair is separated by two meters to ensure that no one can copy other people's answers.
There is still an hour before the time of the scientific examination, and the candidates have arrived at the examination room one after another.
In the distance, there were also many people who came to watch the excitement.
At the same time, from time to time, eyes swept over from below and landed on Yue Ling's body, their eyes full of awe.
Qingluo Kingdom is an eighth-level empire, but this kind of master who can fly in the air, at least at the level of a war king, is still the envy of countless people.
