Chapter 46: The Emperor's Edict

Rosen instinctively felt that he could save again.

But as it turned out, he was overthinking.

As the saying goes: Read a book a hundred times, and its meaning will be seen by itself.

But the premise is that you have to be literate!

You don't even know the words, you can't read them directly, let alone understand the meaning between the lines.

Moreover, in the face of "Grass and Trees to Nourish Qi", the set of ideas taught to him by Professor Zhu Chengyong of the Chinese Department of Peking University could not be used at all.

The reason is simple.

This thing is not a history book, not a novel, not a dossier, but a book of exercises.

In other words, the sentence structure and word collocation in the book cannot be measured by common sense.

Even if he is a native of Daliang, even if he knows every word in the book, he may not know what it means even when they are together.

Not to mention Lawson.

Therefore, the dream of spiritual practice is great, but it is also very difficult to actually implement it.

Especially in this first step.

This is the reason why everything is difficult at the beginning.

What can Lawson do?

He can only ask for himself rather than others.

Early the next morning, Lawson left the inn and went straight to Sloer House, feeling that he was about to make it his home.

On the other hand, the girls who studied at Salok House quickly adapted to Lawson's presence, and most of them agreed with it.

It's not because of how high Rosen's musical talent is, nor because of how charming his personality is, but simply because Zao Woushuang, who appeared in the same frame as Rosen, doesn't know why, he always feels more handsome than before!

There is no harm without contrast.

Naturally, without comparison, there is no way to bring Zao Woushuang's handsomeness to the extreme.

So the little girls at Salok House welcomed Rosen's arrival.

And since Lawson came, they have also found an alternative perk.

No, today Rosen hadn't even walked to the gate of Si Le Fu, and he saw several little girls waiting outside the door from a distance.

They were all waiting for him.

Rosen stepped forward and habitually stretched out his hand, so that soon there were several more affectionate letters in his arms.

Of course, it was for Zao Wushuang.

In this regard, although Lawson was inevitably unbalanced in his heart, he never refused this gesture, after all, he ate a lot of delicious and delicious vegetables and fruits brought by the girls on weekdays.

Eating people with a soft mouth and short hands is vividly reflected in Rosen.

In the voice of thanks from the warbler Yanyan, Lawson strode into the gate of Si Le Fu with his head held high, like a victorious general, and every pore on his body was full of inexplicable spirit.

Some young girls who came later could not help but be annoyed when they saw that the "messenger" had left.

After entering the Si Le Mansion, Lawson realized that he had come a little earlier today, and Zao Wushuang had not yet appeared, but not far ahead, there was a beautiful figure standing in front of him, and his long hair like a waterfall set off sultry waves in the breeze, and his slender back made people think about it.

Rosen immediately stepped up shamelessly and said with a smile: "It's early today." ”

Xue'er turned her head, smiled politely at Lawson, and said, "Luo Gongzi is also early. ”

Rosen was silly happy, but he didn't know where to start with his next sentence.

After all, he was not good at flirting with girls when he was on Earth, and people said that if you want to open the topic, you have to start with what the other party is interested in.

It's a pity that Lawson doesn't know how to play the piano.

Then there is only one way to go.

"Why hasn't Brother Zhao come yet? I'm still anxious to ask him about some personal matters. ”

Speaking of Zhao Wushuang, a trace of shyness quietly flashed in Xue'er's eyes, and then she said softly: "In the past, Mr. got up late, that is, Mr. Luo Gongzi came here in the past few days, and Mr. would start classes early, but I heard my father say that if you don't eat as soon as possible, it will cause a lot of damage to your body." ”

As she spoke, Cher took out two pieces of hot steamed cake from her arms, and the meaning was very clear.

Luo Sen took the steamed cake without hesitation, and swore a promise: "Don't worry, when Brother Zhao comes, I will supervise him to finish eating." ”

Xue'er smiled and bowed: "Then thank you Master Luo." ”

"Hey, what's the politeness of our relationship...... Lawson waved his hand, although he didn't know how to pick up girls, but his thick-skinned specialty never fell at all.

Xu Xue'er was used to Rosen's style, but she didn't feel offended, and still reciprocated with a calm smile.

At this moment, with a chaotic greeting outside the door, Rosen didn't have to look back to know that Zao Wushuang was here.

Zhao Wushuang had just walked into the front yard of Si Le Fu when he saw Lawson at a glance, and couldn't help but be a little surprised at how this product came so early today.

"Oh, Brother Zhao, why did you come, did you have breakfast?"

Zhao Wushuang looked at the two steamed cakes handed over by Rosen in a bit of a daze, and before he could speak, he was pushed into the hall by Rosen.

Generally speaking, after Zhao Wushuang arrived at Si Le Fu, he did not start teaching immediately, but had to prepare first, so Lawson planned to take advantage of this time to ask Zhao Wushuang a few questions.

"Brother Zhao, I'm going to take the Spring Exam. ”

As soon as he entered the house, Lawson said straight to the point.

Zhao Wushuang didn't show too much surprise in this regard, but just doubted: "But you haven't been able to open the sea of qi yet?"

Lawson waved his hand and said, "I'll talk about this later, I want to ask first, if I enter the garrison mansion, won't I be able to participate in the Spring Festival?"

Zhao Wushuang understood Rosen's question, and couldn't help frowning secretly, and then said, "It's like this according to convention. ”

"Why?"

This is a complicated reason, but if it is generalized, there are two main reasons. ”

Rosen put on a deferential look, waiting for Zao Wushuang's words.

"First of all, you have to understand, what is the purpose of cultivation?"

This question is a bit big, and Rosen tries to answer according to the tone he sees in the novel and TV series: "To seek the truth?"

Zhao Wushuang shook his head: "Then what is the Dao?"

Rosen couldn't answer.

Therefore, Zhao Wushuang then spoke: "What you said can't be wrong, but the so-called seeking the Tao is only for those big people who stand at the top of the cultivation world, and the ultimate pursuit is too far for you and me. ”

Rosen nodded, he was a little surprised by Zao Wushuang's pragmatic answer.

Some people seek power, some people seek wealth, some people have lofty aspirations to strengthen the country and enrich the people, and some people have despicable and evil thoughts about bringing disaster to the common people, so you have to think clearly about what your cultivation is for. ”

Rosen was a little confused, he didn't understand, what did this have to do with the fact that he couldn't take the Chunyu exam when he entered the garrison mansion.

Immediately after, I heard Zhao Wushuang say: "If your goal is to become an official, naturally you can't become a disciple of the six major sects, because the emperor has an edict, except for the nine elders of the cabinet, the sect is no longer allowed to be involved in politics!"

Hearing this, Rosen was stunned for a moment, because he never thought that he would get such an answer.

Sects are not allowed to be involved in politics?

The truth seems to be easy to understand.

It's probably a game between the royal family and the major sects.

Then Rosen suddenly thought of a question.

Daliang is a special country with many cultivators, and there are many major sects, and its power is monstrous, if people in the sect are not allowed to participate in politics, then the actual ruling class of Daliang country is actually a group of mortals?

Of course, this doesn't make sense.

And it makes a lot of sense.

Immediately, Rosen thought of the information that Zhao Wushuang's father, that is, Zhao Chaojing, had inadvertently revealed.

Guns and such things......

In other words, skills comparable to those of Rosen's modern gun-making drawings could only appear in two places, if not from outside the territory.

One of them is the Tibetan Sword Villa, one of the six major factions.

The other one is the Imperial Palace!

What does this mean?

The Imperial Palace, or the Great Liang Imperial Family, is likely to be a Taoist in itself!

The nominal head of the six major factions of the Great Liang State is Tianchi.

But in fact, perhaps the overall strength of the Liang royal family is stronger than Tianchi!

Otherwise, how can we keep this thousands of miles of country?

Rosen's mind spun quickly, and he was about to ask Zhao Wushuang for confirmation, when he heard the other party continue: "So generally speaking, there are only two kinds of origins for court officials, either they are descendants of the royal family, or they are casual cultivators, of course, there are some individual exceptions, such as the general of Shenwei in the dynasty, Di Qing, who was once an outcast of Tianchi......"

Hearing this, Rosen knew that his guess was right, and he couldn't help but gasp secretly.

It seems that compared with the normal historical process of Huaxia Kingdom, the science and technology tree of Daliang Kingdom is completely crooked!

Jumping directly from the development of science to the metaphysical nature!

The market is like this.

This is true of the sect.

The same is true of the imperial court!

Rosen shook his head, finally stabilized his mind, and then said, "What about the second reason?"

Zhao Wushuang shrugged his shoulders slightly: "What I said just now is based on everyone's own choice, then on the other hand, it is not easy to practice, and it is even more difficult to cultivate casually, the imperial court has finally absorbed some casual cultivation talents, of course, I don't want them to be lost, or to give them to the six major factions, so if you want to participate in the Spring Festival at that time, Lin Dutong may not release people easily." ”

As he spoke, Zhao Wushuang chuckled again: "Of course, if you insist on going your own way, naturally no one can stop you, but once you lose the election, then ......"

Rosen understood.

If he really joined the garrison mansion, and when the time came, regardless of Lin Dutong's opposition, he resolutely participated in the Spring Festival, if he was favored by the six major factions, it would be fine, but if he fell off the list......

The days ahead will not be easy!

Are you bent on joining the enemy, and you still want to be promoted and make a fortune?

Make your spring and autumn dreams!

Of course, Rosen can not care about this.

Because he went to the garrison mansion to be a spy in the first place, his real destination in the future is still in the adjudication department.

In addition to this, Rosen also thought of a rumor......

"However, I heard that this year's spring, His Majesty will come to watch the ceremony in person, does it mean ......?"

When the words fell, Zhao Wushuang couldn't help but smile: "Not bad, so your luck is really good, this year's Spring Festival is quite special, and the various ministries of the imperial court should not prevent the scattered cultivation officials from referring to it, and even I am already planning to sign up." ”
