Chapter 636 The beginning of the counterattack (two in one)
A few days later, Du Shaoqing summoned several disciples in the study. After the imperial examination was released, the court would soon arrange different responsibilities of those who were on the list. Since he had participated in the scientific examination, it would mean that he would become an official and obey the assignment, which means that the group of fellow brothers would be separated.
"Dad, can you not let your senior brothers go to other places to be officials? Just like me, can you just take exams and not have official positions? They all left, and no one will play with me." Xiao Xuanxuan asked weakly.
Du Shao cleared his daughter and scolded her: "Do you think everyone is a child like you? You think it's fun before doing anything.
Your senior brothers have grown up. Over the years of learning, it should be time to make a fortune in the world. If you want to play, you can go to your younger brother."
Xiao Xuanxuan curled her lips and complained, "Brother? Forget it, my brother is not fun at all. He is almost a nerd by his mother and hides in the house all day and doesn't go out."
Without paying attention to his daughter's complaints, Du Shaoqing looked at a group of apprentices with a smile.
"I have obtained the place where each of you has to go here. According to the rules, you have no choice, but we can't resist our relationship. If you are not satisfied, you can talk."
The relationship is strong enough??
The disciples couldn't help but fall. The master was really unmodest. If you want to deal with relationships, there might be no more harder than this relationship.
No one else said anything. Chang Baicao frowned and said, "Master, are there me? I just like to practice medicine to save people and I will never be an official. Tell the court, don't count me, let me continue to stay in the clinic and study medicine with you.
The disciple is dull in qualifications and is still far from going to the master. If he is really sent out to be alone, he may be embarrassed by the master."
Du Shaoqing laughed loudly, "Of you guys, you are the least confident. You know that you don't like being an official and governing, so you like medical skills. So I took the initiative to give you the title of Imperial Hospital Imperial Medical Doctor, the seventh rank."
"Ah? Imperial Hospital? Seventh-grade?" Chang Baicao opened his mouth wide.
"What? I think it's small?"
"No, it's not that I think it's small, it's too big. The disciple wants to stay in the clinic. If he goes to the Imperial Hospital and treats the people in the palace all day, how many patients will be there? Master, can you not do it?" Chang Baicao explained in a low voice.
"Don't do it? Are you picking and unwilling to serve the nobles in the palace? Xiao Si, your attitude is going to offend people." Du Shaoqing jokingly said.
Chang Baicao waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, my disciple didn't want to offend others.
Master, didn’t you say that our relationship is strong enough…”
Cui Hao pulled Chang Baicao for a moment and reminded: "Fourth Junior Brother, Master is teasing you."
Du Shaoqing was no longer teasing his apprentice, and said clearly: "I know you don't like serving others, so I just gave you a false position, so I don't have to go to the Mao response."
"Really? Thank you, Master!" Chang Baicao happily grabbed Du Shaoqing's arm.
The other brothers congratulated him one after another, and Di Renjie joked: "Fourth Junior Brother, you have a good job. You don't have to work as a servant, you still have a salary, and you have an official position. Tsk tsk...
Is there still a shortage of people for a position like Master? I also want one like this."
"I lack people, Xiao Si still lacks a follower medicine boy. He is responsible for his daily life. He brings tea, water, washing, cooking, bed, folding quilts, washing feet and warming the bed. Do you want to go?" Du Shao asked his eldest apprentice with a clear innocence.
What? Wash your feet and warm the bed? Di Renjie stuck out his tongue. If he doesn't go, whoever likes to go, he will not be a medicine boy. He is simply a maid.
Everyone burst into laughter. The eldest brother was only able to be defeated by his master. No one could tease him.
After holding everyone down, Du Shaoqing said to Chang Baicao: "Although you don't have to work in the palace, you can't continue to stay in the clinic."
"What? Master, no, are you going to expel your disciples from the master?" Chang Baicao turned from overjoy to overjoy, and the expression on his face was almost insufficient.
Du Shaoqing slapped him on the head and scolded him: "It's time for you to go out. You have learned medical skills for several years and have made rapid progress. You can't grow too much when you stay in the clinic. So it's time to go out and travel around the world to experience your skills.
This arrangement is not because you are not capable enough to be an official, but because I know that your life is to become a famous doctor, so you must be confident after you go out, otherwise people may joke that my disciple Du Shaoqing is not promising.
Don’t say you don’t want to do this job?”
"I'm willing, this willingness is just too sudden. The disciples are reluctant to let Master and his brothers go." Chang Baicao nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
"Fourth Brother, stop pretending. You laughed out loud. I didn't realize that you were reluctant to let everyone go." Xiao Xuanxuan exposes her, her expression full of disgust.
...
Next, Du Shaoqing looked at his third disciple Cui Hao, the second place in the imperial examination.
He was said to be the second place, but the imperial court appointed him directly as the top scorer in the new subject. After all, the top scorer Di Renjie was only ten years old and he had to wait until he became an adult before formally arranging his duties.
Cui Hao, the second place, can be said to be completely inferior to Di Renjie in terms of talent and age experience. He is also Du Shaoqing's personal disciple, and the imperial court attaches great importance to it.
"The court intends to send you to the Northeast to manage government affairs, and first serve as the chief of the Liaodong Governor's Office for two years to observe. If you have outstanding abilities, you can consider letting you guard the side.
I guess you are the fastest-promoted person in the history of scientific examinations, and the top scorer is not as good as you."
Cui Hao did not refuse, but laughed, "There is no way. Who said I am your disciple? In your words, the relationship is too tough."
"The fourth brother is not confident, but you don't know how to be modest at all. Just understand it in your heart..." Du Shaoqing cursed with a smile.
...The disciples all rolled their eyes. Who is not humble? Master, you are a bit too shameless.
It was the second apprentice Han Yueming's turn, but Du Shaoqing didn't say anything, but looked quietly for a while.
Han Yueming took the initiative to say, "Master, my disciple actually wants to be like the fourth junior brother. He is an official and does not practice medicine to save people. And I can't bear to leave..."
"Stop, stop, you should get married if you are so adult, and it is impossible to tie it to your master's ankle forever.
I have arranged for you the magistrate of Zheng County, which is the original position of Huaiying's father. Your boy is indeed good at medical skills, but his ability is also not weak. The court lacks people in governing the country. My Du family disciples shine brightly this time. You can't help but want to get rid of your son after the exam.
So I give you two requirements. First, I will manage Zheng County in two years.
Second, while being a county magistrate, he could not lose his medical skills while being in the lead. He could learn from the medical saint Zhongjing of that year.
If you do these two things well, you will be promoted to a title, wealth, glory, glory, and glory in two years."
Han Yueming thought that he was so miserable that the other two junior brothers had the choice, but when he was arranged clearly, he did not give him a chance to choose.
As for the study of the doctor Zhang Zhongjing, everyone understood it. Zhang Zhongjing was the prefect of Changsha at that time. Every time the 15th day of the lunar month, he opened an official office, not asking about political affairs, but specializing in treating the people. It was passed down as a legend in later generations. Since then, he has opened a doctor's office to practice medicine as a "sitting doctor" to commemorate this medical saint.
After arranging three disciples, Du Shaoqing did not order Di Renjie anymore. His seat was settled by Prince Li Chengqian in the Tai Chi Hall.
After thinking about whether there are any missing things, Du Shaoqing really reminded me of something and reminded me: "From now on, you will be adults who have become teachers. While you are alone, if you meet a girl you like, don't be foolish and don't know how to bring it back. Add one to you, you must get married within three years."
"Ah? Master, aren't you forced yourself to do anything…"
"That's right, the third junior brother is about to get married. Isn't you targeting me and the fourth junior brother..."
Han Yueming complained to Chang Baicao.
"Okay, don't force you.
I am so happy that I will let go of my hands. Don’t bother me if you want to marry or something in the future.” Du Shaoqing was not accustomed to these two apprentices.
"Make sure to complete the task!" the two of them immediately surrendered and shouted in unison.
Du Shaoqing said, can't you cure you? These two guys are orphans, and they have to help with their own masters in the marriage, but they are not afraid that they will be disobedient.
"Two senior brothers, do you want to get married? I know so many beautiful older sisters..." Xiao Xuanxuan asked in a low voice as if she was mysterious.
...
Han Yueming and the others stood there. Without waiting for them to speak, Du Shaoqing knocked his daughter on the head and scolded him: "What are you talking nonsense? What big sister, do you learn from every girl to be a matchmaker? Who taught you?"
Just when everyone was discussing this scientific expedition incident, the five surnames and Qiwang could not sit still because this scientific expedition had a great blow to them.
Eighty percent of the children of aristocratic families have been screened out. In previous years, 99% of the probability of being on the list was only 20% this year. All officials have been replaced by poor students with no qualifications. How can this be done?
If this continues, wouldn’t the Tang Dynasty’s officialdom have no place for aristocratic families in the future? They all become newcomers in poor families, and the status of aristocratic families is not guaranteed.
Therefore, the top leaders of the five surnames and seven hopes gathered together again to discuss countermeasures.
The exception is the Cui family in Qinghe, because the Cui family in Qinghe was divided into boundaries with the five surnames and Qiwang a few years ago and no longer participated. Moreover, the scientific examinations this year had no impact on the Cui family in Qinghe. Not only did the number of children of the Cui family in Qinghe not only did not decrease, but even 10% more than in previous years.
This made everyone curse Cui Hao as he was spineless and jealous.
Some people say that the Tang Dynasty court unifies the world unstoppable. Cui Hao was foresighted and his ancestors tried to please the imperial court through Du Shaoqing's relationship, which brought about the development of the Cui family in Qinghe.
Some people also say that Cui Hao has lost the backbone of a scholar and should not bow to the imperial power. He has raised his hand to surrender without insisting on fighting against the imperial power, which is despised.
In short, there are mixed reviews, but Cui Hao doesn't care about these things.
In the past, he could see that aristocratic families took control of the government step by step, and their ambitions gradually expanded. This was not a good thing. At first, they had the character of literati, but later they used great righteousness to harm the country. This was the way to die.
Now that he is the head of the Cui family, while realizing his life's ambitions, he also needs to bring the Cui family in Qinghe to the right way to benefit the country and the people. This is what Cui Hao thought in his heart.
"We cannot sit still and wait for death. Only by electing the imperial examinations want to break our existing pattern. That's what the emperor in the former Sui Dynasty thought, but who succeeded? We must do something to let them know that in the world, we have the final say." The Li family from Longxi said first.
"What are you doing? It's not like before. Only when Yang Guang is fighting and we have the opportunity to operate in secret.
Now the Tang Dynasty has pacified all directions with lightning speed. If we dare to do anything, we can kill us at any time with national justice. The emperor hopes that we can't stand it.
My Zhao County Li family is just an incompetent young man, and we have given up 30% of our own interests and official positions. We have to be careful when we learn from the past." This is a heartbreaking statement from the people of the Zhao County Li family.
At this time, the people of the Cui family in Boling said calmly: "Our business for hundreds of years is not so easy to be broken. They select talents to be placed in the local area, but don't forget that the local area is basically our people.
Whether the newcomers go to the top or the lower level, as long as we operate properly, we can undermine these newcomers at any time. As long as their people do not have real power, how they can install them at will is just a group of eyeliners."
"Eyeliner? Eyeliner should not be underestimated. You know, sand is a tower that can be gathered into sand, and it may not be effective in a year or two, but if two generations develop like this, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents." The Li family in Longxi reminded.
But the Cui family of Boling said disdainfully: "If the eyeliner is useful, then they will have become powerful long ago. Who doesn't know that the emperor's Hundred Riders are all over the world, so what can it be? Don't scare yourself.
Besides, although those newly promoted officials are now shouting to serve their country with loyalty, if they really get to office and are wiped out by reality, they may voluntarily be classified as our people without any effort.
So just deal with the moves, and don’t be afraid that they will press forward step by step.”
This explanation really gave everyone a reassurance. In the end, everyone agreed and prepared both ways. On the one hand, they tried to solve the problem of being controlled by the imperial examination by the court, and on the other hand, they restricted the development of newcomers in the local area.
As long as the court sees that even if they select their own people, they still useless when they arrive at the place, they will retreat.
Of course, these are just wishful thinking of the aristocratic families. No one can guess whether the entire court, or the current emperor, would think so.
Just like two skilled chess players, who can calculate the best, put the other party in the jar, no one knows until the end.
At the same time, in the Palace Political Consultation Hall, Emperor Li Er and Crown Prince Li Chengqian were also discussing the great victory of the imperial examination. Li Chengqian was full of confidence and vividly imagining the future.
But there was a deep feeling in the corner of Emperor Li Er's eyes. After a long time, Li Er interrupted Li Chengqian and said with a heavy face: "This time is just a beginning, opening up the situation of talent selection.
We try our best to arrange the newcomers in the newly occupied territory so that they can learn and use it. The real deep-rooted places of the aristocratic families are water-mapped and cannot be broken by success or failure.
I don’t have much time left, so you must be prepared. Don’t be greedy for merit or make progress, and don’t give up halfway. Even if the three generations can compete for the full power, that is a blessing from heaven.”
Li Chengqian asked in shock with shock: "Why did your father say this? The Tang Dynasty is booming, and when his father is upright and brave and diligent in his prime, how can he not have much time? Is there anything hidden from his sons?
If it is physically unwell, my son will go and find his brother-in-law to come over. He is a miracle doctor..."
