now. The wealthy officials walked into the palace with great anticipation. Su Li was sitting on the king's chair, looking down at the poor officials in front of him calmly. "Meet King Yongle!" "Meet King Yongle!" The wealthy officials saluted one after another. Their faces were full of excitement and uncontrollable excitement. The reputation of King Yongle is known to everyone in the Tang Dynasty! This is not only because of his illustrious military exploits, but also because King Yongle will make the decision for the people! Unlike those arrogant and tyrannical disciples, King Yongle was a good prince who would really make decisions for the people!
If not for the appearance of King Yongle. How could the Tang Dynasty be so prosperous now? That's right. It looks like a poor family official. Today's Tang Dynasty has such a prosperous age, which is mostly related to King Yongle. As the saying goes, self-cultivation, governing the country and bringing peace to the world are the "Three Eight Three", which is the goal of all scholars. Being able to serve under a wise master like King Yongle, it may not be impossible to achieve this goal! Su Li looked at these wealthy officials. Not surprised that they responded to his call. Compared with later generations, the imperial examination system of the Tang Dynasty not only had fewer subjects, but also had many loopholes. It was normal for these poor officials to have no way out. Because compared with those powerful children, the resources in the hands of the two. It is not equal in itself. Those sons of the rich and powerful could befriend examiners and other prestigious officials. We can even interact with each other and the ministers, and we have already formed a community of interests. If you want to stand out in this community of interests, you either have to be a dog for them, or you have to be really talented. But these are only a few after all. Su Li nodded slightly. "Since you are here through the recruitment order." "It should be clear that the talents this king needs are not just those who know how to do it."
"The king will set up an assessment the next day. Only those who pass the assessment can enjoy the treatment of talents. Naturally, they will be rewarded with cattle, sheep and silver.' "More importantly, it is a reference to the two major events of changing customs and developing the northwest." "This is an act that will last for a long time, and it needs to be treated with caution." Although he does need scholars to teach these barbarians to change their customs. But after all, this was just a matter of changing customs. There was no need for him to go to Li Er specifically to ask for recruitment orders. It was more about the need for these people to develop the northwest. Su Li considers herself to be no ordinary person. But after all, my energy is limited, and it is impossible to devote time to this group every day. Then how can he stay close to his wife? Therefore, after recruiting these talents, it is natural to hope that they can share their work. The wealthy officials were excited when they heard this. Except for a few who had a look of apprehension on their faces, most of the officials from poor families were eager to give it a try. Since they are willing to leave the vast land of the Central Plains and come to the desolate northwest. Naturally, I have ambitions in my heart! Now that King Yongle has given this opportunity as soon as he comes up, they will naturally seize it! Although the rewards of cattle, sheep and silver are tempting, if they valued this, they would have become dogs for the children of the powerful. Traveling thousands of miles to the northwest is for the great cause in my heart! "Thank you King Yongle for your kindness!!" The poor officials shouted in unison, which made the palace seem to tremble slightly. Su Li smiled slightly. "There is no need to be so grateful. This is just the first step in the northwest." "Whether it is to educate the barbarians or develop the northwest, these are not my ultimate goals." "Since you are scholars, would you like to know?" "What's beyond the northwest?" Beyond the northwest? The poor officials looked at each other for a moment. One of them asked tentatively: "Could it be that... King Yongle refers to the Western Regions?" Today, Su Li's territory encompasses Xinjiang and Tibet in later generations, stretching as far north as Waisu. The size of the territory is even greater than that of the Tang Dynasty.
Thirty-six countries in the Western Regions. It can be said that most of them have been conquered by him. But it’s not that no fish slipped through the net. For example, the Shiguo and other countries located in the later Uzbekistan region. All are outside Su Li's territory. But the officials from poor families feel that the northwest is already vast and sparsely populated. Even if the total number of Hu people and Han people in the Central Plains is only more than four million, it is already not easy to control the entire northwest. Not to mention external expansion. When Su Li heard this, he just looked at it with a smile. "Not all lands in the Western Regions are desolate, except for the Central Plains in the world. "There is also more fertile ground waiting for us." Said. Su Li picked up the map originally placed on the table. What caught the eyes of many poor officials was a map of Eurasia. Su Li calmly pointed out the circled location of the Tang Dynasty with her finger. "This is Datang." Then moved to his northwest territory. "This is the northwest." "In addition to these two, there are the countries in the Western Region to the west and the barbarians in the north. "They are all the directions that this king needs to target in the future." The words just fell. The expressions of many wealthy officials changed slightly. That’s all for the countries in the Western Regions. King Yongle actually plans to march north? As everyone knows. The snow-capped mountains in the east and west are unparalleled. But the cold in the north is indescribable, and I won’t give in too much! No matter how ferocious the foreign tribes are, they still feel helpless when facing such severe cold. otherwise.
These foreign tribes will not be trapped in the northwest. After all, even if they are just the remnants of a foreign country, many barbarians can be considered brave and good at fighting. It is said that the tribe that can cross the severe cold is one in ten! But if it works. These people will leave a mark in history! Who doesn’t long for such a moment? Su Li looked at the expressions of the wealthy officials in front of her. Although most people had some worry in their eyes, they couldn't hold back their excitement. This made him nod with satisfaction. "However, this is only a long-term goal after all." "What I need you to do now is still to develop Northwest and change the customs." "These Hu people are barbarians by nature, and if we want them to learn how to live as Han people, we have to work hard. "As for how to achieve it, I don't need to say much. Since you are a talented person, you should solve my problems for me. You don't need to let me do everything myself." "It's late today, and the palace examination will be held tomorrow." "Go back and rest. The king hopes to see a satisfactory answer tomorrow." That's right. There's more to the future here than just the immediate hardships. The world has more fertile soil, and Su Li will naturally not let go of such an opportunity. "Thank you to King Yongle!" The wealthy officials thanked and nodded one after another. They looked at each other and found that the other person also had a bit of excitement on his face. What King Yongle wants to do is to achieve great things! How could they let go of such an opportunity!
