Zhong Mingli hurried into Tang Ning's study, looked at him, and asked in shock: How could the quota of Jiangnan Juren, streamlining taxes, fall on you?
Tang Ning shook his head and said: I don't know either
He could not tell his father-in-law that this was one of the betrothal gifts that Emperor Chen asked for after he got to Chen's daughter.
What should I do? Zhong Mingli looked worried and said: No one can do these two things. Isn’t this difficult for you?
It's okay. Tang Ning smiled and said: There will always be a way.
For him, there are naturally solutions to this matter, and there are many. The problem is how to choose.
The quota of juren in Jiangnan can be directly reduced. Whoever dares to make trouble at the gate of the Imperial College will be arrested and will be arrested in the Tianzhu of the Ministry of Justice.
You can not change the number of juren in Jiangnan and cancel the qualifications for independent questions for the two prefectures in Jiangnan. From then on, the Jiangnan prefectures will be issued separately by the capital. It will no longer be judged by rankings, but will set up a separate passing line...
The quota given by the court remains unchanged, but it is not something that the court can decide whether the students who passed the Jiangnan Prefecture exam can meet this number.
Of course, in Tang Ning's view, these are all down-to-earth solutions
The task given to him was to do things beautifully. He not only needed to reduce the number of places in Jiangnan, but also did not have any objections to the students in Jiangnan. Any violent acts or unfair policies would inevitably lead to great resistance from them and he lost the original intention of doing this.
Even Tang Ning couldn't think of any good way for a while
The order that Emperor Chen handed over this matter to him obviously ushered in another round of conflict between Jiangnan students. Many Jiangnan officials also submitted memorials, saying that this law was unfair and was too unfair to Jiangnan.
Some people even pointed the finger at the Gyeonggi, saying that the court already had many preferential treatments for students in Gyeonggi, and now they still have to suppress Jiangnan. It is really unreasonable.
The educational resources in the north and south of Chen State are very different. If the quality of students is in the south of Jiangnan, even the capital is not as good as that of the capital. However, the number of juren assigned to each imperial examination in the capital must be more than the Jiangnan.
However, the capital is the capital of Chen State, and the upper class of Chen State gathered here. Jiangnan could only swallow his anger when he was treated in such unfairly, but their patience was limited and he could not tolerate the capital's bullying again and again
All the juren quotas cut from Jiangnan this time were added to Jingji. Who can bear this? Therefore, the conflict between the Imperial College and the students of Jiangnan gradually developed into the contradiction between Jiangnan and Jingji.
Naturally, the students and officials in the capital could not let them arrange it, and gradually began to fight back. The folds accumulated on both sides occupied several large tables in the Shangshu Province.
Before going to the yamen, the Secretariat did not discuss a countermeasure. Tang Ning left the Secretariat as usual. When he was about to go home, he saw a man walking out of the yamen behind.
That place is the Zhongshu Yaya, and the person who came out was Tang Jing, the Zhongshu Sheshou Shesen.
There are injustice and debt. Although Tang Jing is also a member of the Tang family, he is different from Tang Qi and Tang Huai. Therefore, when it comes to the matter against the Tang family, Tang Ning did not point the finger at him.
He is still his Zhongshu Sheren. In Chen State, although the official position of Zhongshu Sheren is not high, he can directly participate in state affairs. He is equivalent to the emperor's secretary and has an unlimited future.
Even though Tang Ning and Tang Jing had no grudges, they didn't want to have too much entanglement with the Tang family. He took the initiative to slow down. Only when Tang Jing walked out of the palace gate did he slowly walk out.
When he walked out of the palace gate, a voice came from the front
The problem of Jiangnan is ultimately a conflict between Jiangnan and the capital. Your Majesty does not want Jiangnan to be a big party, and Jiangnan does not want the capital to be the dominant party. It is fundamentally unfeasible to reduce Jiangnan to make up for the capital...
Tang Jing did not leave, but waited for him outside the palace gate.
After he said something, he got on the carriage
Listening to Tang Jing's words, Tang Ning stood there, and a light suddenly passed by in his mind.
At this moment, a sudden sound of rapid footsteps came from behind him. A eunuch ran out, panting and said: Lord Tang, Your Majesty summoned him...
Tang Ning entered the imperial study room, and Chen Huang didn't raise his head and asked: Have you thought of a solution to the matter in Jiangnan?
Tang Ning said honestly: Not yet
I'll give you three more days
Emperor Chen said lightly: Within three days, I will see a note to reduce the number of students from Jiangnan. If an official in the court has a disagreement, I will hit you in front of everyone.
Tang Ning saw that Emperor Chen either wanted to solve the problem or hit his board, but he still bowed: I obey the order
Emperor Chen glanced at him and said: Isn’t this what I am making things difficult for you?
Tang Ning said: Go back to Your Majesty, it doesn't count
Chen Huang said: Since you don’t think this is a difficult situation, then when the Jiangnan matter is resolved, the Gyeonggi matter will be left to you.
Tang Ning raised his head and asked: Your Majesty, what's wrong with the capital?
Chen Huangdao: After the number of candidates in Jiangnan is reduced, the power of the Jiangnan faction will definitely be reduced. At that time, without the restraint of the Jiangnan faction, the Jingjin faction is too strong, which is not conducive to the balance of the court...
Tang Ning thought for a while and asked: Otherwise, find some reasons and pick some officials in the capital to search their homes. I wonder if Your Majesty thinks this method is feasible?
Chen Huang looked at him and said: What do you think?
Tang Ning did not answer, but just glanced at Chen Huang with a vague look. He was the one who wanted to weaken the Jiangnan party, and he was the one who thought the Jiangnan party was too weak and could not suppress the Jingji. Tang Ning really wanted to take off his shoes at this moment and use the soles of the shoes to suck his old face.
While weakening the Jiangnan party, it also demands to increase their strength to restrain the stronger capital. What is the difference between this and asking him to draw colorful black with brushes?
Emperor Chen glanced at him and said: Why, is there any problem?
Tang Ning gritted his teeth and bowed, saying: Go back to Your Majesty, no
After trying to think from the perspective of Emperor Chen, Tang Ning was not angry at all
If he was Emperor Chen, the person standing at this moment, at least three legs had been broken by the guards.
Emperor Chen waved his hand and said: If you don’t have one, go back. I will only give you three days. If you haven’t thought of a solution in three days, remember to wear two more pairs of pants when you go to court.
After Tang Ning left, Chen Huang put down the memorial, stood up slowly, breathed a sigh of relief, and murmured: After thinking about it, I will not be able to calm down if I don’t hit him...
……
Chen Huang wanted to hit his board by deliberately making things difficult, which was simply a fool.
Even if he really wants Tang Ning to draw colorful black, Tang Ning can meet his requirements and leave him speechless
Early the next morning, in the morning court, Tang Ning held the tablet and said: Report to Your Majesty, I have a memorial to the distribution of the quota of the various states...
So fast? Emperor Chen looked at him in surprise and said: Let's hear
Tang Ning bowed and said: For a long time, the number of juren in the imperial examinations in our court, including the two roads of Jiangnan and one road of Jingji, has occupied more than 70%. I think this is extremely unfair to the other students. I suggest that Gyeonggi and Gyeongnam will each give up 20% of the juren and allocate them to Dugidao, Shannan and Huainan Road, Huainan Road, Hedong Road, Guannei Road, etc., so it is fair.
Emperor Chen wanted to reduce the power in Jiangnan, but he did not want the capital to grow. Since that was the case, he would beat 30 major boards each, and cut the quota of juren in both places and allocate them to the rest of the roads. Wouldn't it be just right for Emperor Chen to do it?
Tang Ning finished speaking and was in an uproar
The quota of juren cut by Gangnam Province was originally given to Gyeonggi Province. In this way, Gyeongnam's influence in the DPRK would gradually decrease, and Gyeonggi's power would continue to expand. No one expected that Tang Ning not only did not give up Gyeongnam's juren's quota to Gyeonggi, but also reduced the quota of juren in Gyeonggi and Gyeonggi and distributed it to the rest of the roads.
In this way, in the future, the power of the Jiangnan and Gyeonggi parties will gradually decrease, and the rest of the Tao will gradually rise, breaking the situation where officials of both parties monopolize the power. In this way, they can also gain more benefits for the Tao and no longer have to follow Jiangnan and Gyeonggi to eat their leftovers.
The court was in an uproar for a moment, and then it became quiet again
However, the expressions of everyone have changed unprecedentedly
Two officials from Jiangnan were surprised. Although Jiangnan had still been cut, the capital did not take advantage of it, but suffered losses like them. Thinking of this, things didn't seem to be that bad.
Officials representing the interests of the Gyeonggi were in vain and were naturally frightened and dissatisfied. However, just as they wanted to stand up and refute Tang Ning's proposal, they caught the eyes of the other officials, and they couldn't help but skip a beat in their hearts, and stopped to take steps.
In the court, except for officials from Jiangnan and Jingjin, the rest of the officials showed joy on their faces and their eyes were flashing strangely, like cats that smelled fishy...
Tang Ning shook his head and said: I don't know either
He could not tell his father-in-law that this was one of the betrothal gifts that Emperor Chen asked for after he got to Chen's daughter.
What should I do? Zhong Mingli looked worried and said: No one can do these two things. Isn’t this difficult for you?
