"... Although Your Highness is a scholar, he is not good at scholars. Under the rule of the General's Mansion, the imperial examination has not been reopened. This shows the meaning... Looking at the court today, we are going to be the same court as the past peddlers and soldiers... In this way, where is the face of scholars in the world... It really shames our ancestors!"

Speaking of this, Chen Mingxia looked at Zhang Huangyan and Li Yong respectively, "I was promoted by Your Highness and was appointed as the Left Minister of State. It is logical that he should be the bestowed minister for His Highness to repay His Highness... However, Chen has read the books of sages since he was a child, and knew that he would do something but not do it... It is a plan for the country, a plan for the country, and a plan for the welfare of all students in the world... Chen originally intended to ask Lord Zhang to strongly advise His Highness to abolish the current method of recommending officials and reopen the imperial examination... Except for internal officials, all external officials are determined by the cabinet... Reorganize the cabinet, add eleven cabinet ministers, and add nine military ministers, and at least four people must be recommended by the Ministry of War... The Northern Expedition Army is divided into two, and the cabinet and each of them is in charge of one department, and four items are...."

Chen Mingxia said this, her face was dim, and she wiped the corners of her eyes with her hand and said in great grief: "But you think you already know that Lord Fanshi sincerely advised him, and his highness refused... and he was meant to be guilty!"

There were many discussions in the hall.

Liu Yumo even jumped up and shouted loudly: "...Everyone, for the sake of our future, Lord Fantai will not hesitate to give strong advice to His Highness the King of Disciples... How can we sit down and watch you suffer unjustly..."

So, a noise sounded in the hall.

Someone even shouted slogans, "We must petition your Highness!"

Zhang Huangyan looked back at Li Yong, and Li Yong shook his head without a trace, and Zhang Huangyan fell silent.

At this time, Chen Mingxia raised her hand and the hall suddenly became quiet again.

Chen Mingxia's melancholy voice sounded, "Chen is full of heart, just for the long-term stability of the country, and is never selfless... Unfortunately, Your Highness is nepotism and does not believe in our loyal and righteous people, but instead favors traitors like Ma Shiying... Chen is heartbroken!"

As he said this, he raised his chest.

So there was another uproar in the hall.

"Chen originally thought that he would jointly express his concern to His Highness with tens of thousands of students from Jiangnan College and Business School. However, you also know that the Governor of Jiangnan College is His Highness's biological father, so he naturally cannot do what he wants... Therefore, Chen invited you to come today, just to invite all the wise men and their personal connections to contact their fellow students, and to join more than 10,000 students from Business School to petition His Highness the King of Political Consultative Affairs... Even if your Highness is punished for this, you can show the people of the world our openness and integrity... You also ask for your life and your life to ask for the world!"

Speaking of this, Chen Mingxia stood up and bowed four times in the hall.

Everyone in the hall stood up and returned the salute, and all the expressions of generosity, sadness and anger appeared on their faces.

"We are willing to follow Lord Fantai and petition His Highness!"

Zhang Huangyan and Li Yong had four eyes and stood up and said in unison: "...even if there are thousands of people, I will go!"

....

Wu Zheng did not expect that things would suddenly turn out like this.

Two days later, a petition team of countless students and students suddenly appeared in Hangzhou city.

Their main demands are to restore the imperial examination and abolish the recommendation and official positions.

When Wu Zheng learned about it, the scene was already under control.

I originally thought that the Wang Yilin incident was a small episode, and at most it was a small storm, but in fact, it was obviously a game of profit distribution.

But even at this time, Wu Zheng still did not think that this was a rebellion.

Wu Zheng only ordered the subordinates of the General's Office to enlighten and persuade the students and students in the march, rather than sending the government troops and the Changlin Wei court to suppress them immediately.

Because Wu Zheng's thoughts at this time were all on the battles outside the sea, and on the handover between Wang Yilin and Shi Lang.

But after just one day, the scale of more than a thousand people when the march began quickly expanded to the scale of ten thousand people.

Logically speaking, with Wu Zheng's political acumen, he should be alert at this time.

Unfortunately, one thing affected Wu Zheng's judgment.

Early in the morning of the third day of the parade of the Hangzhou city, Zhang Mingzhen sent someone to send the latest battle report.

Chen Sheng led his troops and, with the cooperation of the navy, successfully landed and occupied the Jicang area in the northern part of Dongfan Island. Zheng Sen led the remnants of the troops to flee south.

This is a great victory.

Affected by this, Wu Zheng was in a good mood. The scale of the parade in Hangzhou City was rapidly reduced a lot.

Therefore, Wu Zheng believed that the original intention of the students and students was still good, and it should be caused by his excessive harsh suppression of scholars.

It was this idea that Wu Zheng did not quickly order the rebellion to quell the chaos, but continued his previous response strategy and responded with a gentle heart.

....

That night, Zhang Huangyan suddenly visited.

Wu Zheng was in a good mood because of Zhang Mingzhen's good news and specially held a banquet to entertain Zhang Huangyan.

"It's mysterious, the city has not been peaceful these two days."

Wu Zheng took advantage of the drunkenness to mention this matter casually to Zhang Huangyan, "You said that you are the editor-in-chief of Hanming Banyuetan, and you will not explain to the public for Gu... What do you mean?"

This is true. With the friendship between Wu Zheng and Zhang Huangyan for many years, it can be regarded as a brotherhood.

Hanming Banyuetan acts as the mouthpiece of the General's Mansion. If an article to relieve conflicts is published quickly, it can play a great role.

At this time, Zhang Huangyan heard Wu Zheng’s questioning and put down the wine bowl in his hand.

He looked at Wu Zheng seriously and asked, "I want to ask the prince the truth!"

Wu Zheng said in surprise: "Why are you so serious... If you have something to do, just ask."

Zhang Huangyan asked solemnly, "After the prince ascended the throne... should he be a dictator, or should he delegate power in the cabinet, so that the imperial power and the prime minister can complement each other?"

Wu Zheng's face gradually became solemn, "Zhang Cangshui... Gu always thought that you should understand me!"

Zhang Huangyan was silent for a moment, then looked up at Wu Zheng, "The prince often said... a gentleman talks about his heart and actions. I think that without rules, I can't make a square line... Please answer my questions positively."

Wu Zheng was a little annoyed, "Zhang Cangshui, whether to delegate power or not is a question that Gu should consider... Gu can be released or not... You must understand that what Gu gives is yours... But you cannot rob!"

As soon as these words came out, the situation became clear.

Wu Zheng and Zhang Huangyan looked at each other and fell silent for a long time.

With a "pop" sound of candle fire burst.

Wu Zheng sighed and said, "Mysterious, the friendship between you and me for eight years... can you no longer have the word "trust"?"

Zhang Huangyan said coldly: "Huang Yan knows... This incident is indeed ashamed of the prince, but please believe that Huang Yan is selfless... We have worked hard to restore Han Guan. Huang Yan does not want to launch a righteous army to attack the prince after the prince becomes emperor... and he does not want to bear the bad reputation of rebels... This is definitely not what Huang Yan wants!"
