Chapter 154 Official Examination
Chapter 154 Official Examination
"Zhang Jijiu, it's been a long time." Li Dawang invited the former Taixue teacher to sit down with a smile on his face.
Zhang Bingjian resigned, with a meaningful smile: "The old man was relegated to the northwest, and now serves as the magistrate of Shangjun. He works under the hands of the king. He has no close relatives who are expected to be successful outside, but only a five-foot child who should be in the family. Standing alone, he is like a shadow... ..."
"Stop it, master, you are slapping a student in the face." Li Xian laughed, and didn't complain to the old man that he was a poor commander. Looking back on the past, he sighed with a smile, "Back then, that bastard Zhong Er and I were too stubborn to teach , causing trouble all day long, the two of us occupy half of the seats in the Taixue Shengjian Hall, Master, you are a majestic person, you can beat me if you say so! My ass still hurts when I think of Taixue."
Zhang Bing stroked his gray beard, smiled slightly, and sighed: "The teaching is not strict, and the teacher is lazy."
He stared at the face of this once playful student, who is now full of vigor, calm and prestige, and said slowly: "The son said: Junjun, ministers, fathers, sons. I will teach you poetry, scriptures and scriptures." , but did not teach you the principle of 'the king is the guide of the subject'. The king of the Northwest, the king of the Northwest! The famous utensils of the country, he gave himself?! The king of the Northwest is so capable."
The smile on Li Xian's face also disappeared, and he took a deep look at the white-haired old fox, and said in a deep voice: "The people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least. That's why the people of Qiu are the emperor. If the Son of Heaven loses his virtue, he will not be able to defend himself against powerful enemies outside, and he will not be able to calm the people inside, and if the tiger eats his sons with poison, he will be arrogant and have no relatives, and will not be able to stop him... Only punish crimes to hang the people, and clear our southeastern border!"
[well said!It's so close~ That kid Zhou Dun is not a joke, he poisoned the big beauty's sister and killed little Ruirui to death.If you don't get the right position, you have a guilty conscience, if you are an outsider, but if you are an insider, you should hate him, his mother's dog emperor!If he hadn't cared about the people of Dayan, Xiao Lizi would have turned his back on him long ago! ]
[Like the upstairs, the other words are very good, but if you don’t know ancient Chinese, please don’t imitate the calls of ancient pests and mice, thank you! ]
[Xing, the people are suffering!Death, the people suffer! ]
[Looking at the ferocity of those Turkic barbarians, if Xiao Lizi didn't help the dog emperor, Dayan would not be able to act like this for a few days. ]
[I am strong, I am strong [beep——] I am making rapid progress!Back then, he was still a scumbag of the Taixue, but now he can yell at the principal until he is speechless. ]
[Xiao Lizi seems to have put in a lot of hard work. The host Ke did not teach him a bunch of ancient history in vain, which is comparable to the "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" taught by the emperor's teacher.Xiao Kezi has made meritorious service in education, reward! ]
【Thank you, Your Majesty, for your reward! 】
Eunuch Zhong gratefully thanked the guest officer for his reward. As for whether he is regarded as the chief executive or the emperor's teacher, does it matter?Star coins are the highest pursuit in life!
"I came to the Northwest for a few months, hidden in the countryside, made friends with the people, and saw all kinds of new things in the Northwest. I was so shocked that I had no words to express it. I only praised "Li Yun"."
Zhang Bing stood up slowly, his hunchbacked and thin body gradually straightened up, looked straight into Li Xian's eyes, and chanted softly: "The journey of the great way is also, the world is for the public. Select the virtuous and capable, trustworthy and harmonious, old people are not alone The relatives, not the only son, the son, so that the old will be able to die, the strong will be useful, the young will be strong, the widowed, lonely, and sick will be supported... This is why they plan to shut down and not prosper, steal and mess with thieves and do not commit crimes, Therefore, the outer door is not closed, which is called Datong."
His face was flushed, his beard trembled; his voice became louder and louder, clanging like a bell.It seems to be chanting "Li Yun", and it seems to be describing the future Northwest in my mind.
Li Xian was a little shocked that such a little old man could make such an astonishing sound. For him to use the past to describe the present, and to praise the Northwest under his leadership so much, Li Xian was quite complacent. To show off the meaning of achievement.
This taste, hmm!Very good.
The old man Zhang raised his beard and bowed deeply, and said in a loud voice: "The old man is shy and mao, so he recommends himself, and is willing to 'select the virtuous and capable' for the king. I only hope that I can see Datong in the Northwest in my lifetime, and the people can live in peace and contentment!"
Li Xian laughed, quickly helped the old man, and pretended to say: "I have admired Mr. for a long time! For example, when there is rain after a long drought, when you meet an old friend in a foreign land, Dong...cough cough! Mr. is a great talent, the matter of the official examination gave me a headache for three months There is more than enough, and now it is finally saved."
Mr. Zhang listened to King Li's shameless words, and said with a resentful smile: "Doctors are not equal, I work as a single virtuous."
King Li suddenly got stuck.
[Call Zhong Ke, call Zhong Ke, quickly explain to my translator Li!In the first half, he has already performed beyond the level, and now the old man uses allusions and poems that you have not taught... Hehehe! ]
[Just revealing the true colors of the bird stuffed inside the idiot, hahaha! ]
[snort!The idiot is also the "idiot" of our live broadcast room, it's not up to this old fox to despise it. ]
[Old man Zhang said: You "king" is not very good at doing things. Don't think I'm useful. If you catch an old scalper, you'll fuck it to death, you know? ! 】
Now King Li knew what he was thinking, and he quickly smiled and comforted him humbly, and said in his stomach: Old man Zhang has a level. Confucianism, climbed to the high position of sacrificial wine in a few decades.The problem with the old man is that he loves to search for chapters and excerpts, and quotes from scriptures. He doesn't talk about good people, and even tells a joke with allusions. Does it make people live? !
As for what kind of talents Li Dawang needs, how the Northwest officials examine the regulations and other specific matters, there is no need for him and Zhang Bing to instruct him and Zhang Bing in detail, but to let Shiping and the others hand over the notice as soon as possible, so that the old man can familiarize himself with the situation that Dayan has never had before. The literary affairs and the grand event of official election.
[It really is an old fox!Looking at the appearance of this group of great Confucian scholars who are loyal to the country and regard the people as the most important thing, they still call themselves old and old to our King Li, not "subjects". ]
[Tsk tsk tsk!Fooling and pretending to be fooled, in fact it was Xiao Lizi who was fooled, right? ! ]
[Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended.If Dayan dies, the old man is the mentor of a large number of officials in the Northwest; if the Northwest dies, anyway, he is only ordered by the emperor to be the governor of Shangjun, and he also has the connections in the Northwest, so he can turn back in minutes...]
[Hey!This old man looks quite noble and dedicated to serving the people, isn't he so dark? ! ]
[It doesn’t matter if the old man is a virtuous or a traitor, Ah Xian, “Let him do all kinds of tricks, and use his strength to break him.” As long as the hearts of the people in the Northwest and even Dayan are on you, under the general situation, no matter what cares he has in his heart, in the end There is one way out - to be your loyal minister and virtuous man, King Li. 】

"Poster, the poster notice is out!"
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze! There are officials who can read, why squeeze!"
"Hey! He's his mother, stepping on your father?!"
A group of sour Confucian scholars crowded in front of the government offices of counties and counties in the northwest, and everyone wanted to see what the legendary "Northwest Official Examination" was about before others.
It has been rumored for a long time that the official examination in the Northwest will be held. It was not until the second day of the twelfth lunar month that the Northwest King's notice was officially posted at the gates of the county government offices in the Northwest.Officials in Northwest uniforms are busy with their affairs, and the officials and lords sent by Dayan are inseparable.
This kind of scene is not unusual in the Northwest, and it is commonplace.
King Li didn't make things difficult for these officials appointed by Dayan, who were full of worries and worries. He just put them under house arrest in the northwest, and it was fine not to run back to Yanjing to poke the lung tubes in the northwest, and he didn't expect them to be of great use. .Zhou Dun, a great talent who can be used, would not be so stupid as to beat a dog with a meat bun, so he sent the cheap and powerful king of the Northwest.
As for Zhang Bing, is this slippery old gentleman relegated or has other purposes... Ah Ke said it well, Wan Dao will do his best to break it!
In the past few months, from all over the Northwest and even the prefectures and counties of Dayan, they rushed to the government offices of the Northwest Prefectures to watch the excitement. More and more scholars gathered to check out the news. One is curious about the mysterious and prosperous place that everyone has rumored, and the other is not necessarily not avoiding the national calamity, quietly checking whether there is a "new dynasty" atmosphere in the northwest.
However, when setting foot on the northwest land, there are not many people who are not stunned by this vibrant, prosperous and stable yet strict rules and meritocracy.
People have the same heart, and the heart has the same reason.
I didn't plan to take the exam, so I secretly bought the textbooks that are said to be required for the exam, such as simplified numbers and simplified characters, judicial, administrative... Even if I don't consider the future of the Northwest, it seems that the most inferior position has a few months. The high salary of 20 taels of silver can put down the airs of any scholar.
The only doubt is that if he works in the Northwest and this story is accidentally reported to his hometown, then he doesn't know how the local government will treat the family members of those who "voted to the North".
Regarding the doubts of Yandi's applicants, Zhang Bing offered a plan to King Li, which is to seal the name roll, so that candidates with concerns can change their pseudonyms after filing, so as to protect the safety of their families. After bringing relatives to the Northwest, I will change my real name back.This article is also vaguely reminded on the poster notice, people who are interested can understand it, and it doesn't matter if a careless fool can't understand it.
As soon as the poster was posted at the gate of the government office, countless literati and scholars who wanted to apply for the exam and waited for a long time rushed forward. They concentrated on checking the announcement, pondering the clauses word by word, and comparing their own conditions to see which subject is suitable for the exam.
While pulling his companion, Wang Yuancheng tried his best to squeeze away the sour scholar next to him. He was scolded several times as "inhuman!" and finally squeezed to the front, looking up at the notice on the wall and reading aloud.
"... There is no distinction between high and low, regardless of origin, regardless of appearance, only talents are respected."
Wang Yuancheng excitedly turned his head and shouted to his friend: "Huh?! Ah Chi, Ah Chi! You can take the exam too! This northwest..."
He suddenly woke up on whose territory he was standing, hurriedly lowered his voice, and then whispered excitedly: "This Northwest Wang Lixian is really a meritocracy, and the official test doesn't care about appearance... A Chi, you can take the test, too. It’s not in vain to waste your wealth.”
Wang Yuancheng glanced at A Chi's lame leg with relief and some regret, and sighed in his heart, such a scholar who has read poetry and books accidentally broke his leg, and there was a long scar on his originally handsome face. It's not that the conditions for the official examination in Northwest China are only for talent and nothing else, it's really... alas!
"Hmm." A Chi lowered his head and replied hoarsely.
"Mingjing, Mingshu, Mingfa... Why are there so many subjects, what are you going to take, A Chi?"
"Mingfa."
Ah Chi raised his head slowly, his pupils were as black as lacquer, but there was a hint of haze and lifelessness, his sword eyebrows were bright, and the bridge of his nose seemed to have been slashed obliquely, with a long scar running across half of his face. It's calm, no joy, no worries.
This face does not seem to be very old, it seems to be only seventeen or eighteen, and it seems to be thirty.
He said in a low voice but firmly: "Don't distinguish between relatives and estrangements, no distinction between high and low, rule according to the law, and break with the law!"
After a while, A Chi raised his eyes again, and murmured softly: "I just want to do nothing to seek power, and I would rather 'righteousness destroys relatives' and other human tragedies to happen again."
