"Sun Kunzhong, please!"

"Zhang Xianggong, Wu Xianggong, please!"

In the compound of the Zhizhou Yamen, a group of officials from the Jin State and a group of high school officials, including the chief examiner Zhang Xiaochun, the deputy chief examiner Wu Ji, and an official surnamed Shi were participating in the feast held for high school students.

As the chief examiner this time, Zhang Xiaochun didn't want to speak, but he had to stand up hard.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the old man is here to wish you all prosperity and prosperity!"

Everyone got up, took their glasses, and drank them all.

"In the future, everyone will be officials in various places, and you must remember eight words, even if you are worthy of heaven and earth. That is: for one term as an official, for the benefit of one party. Congratulations to everyone!"

Everyone agreed together, and they all ate and drank carefully.

After a few rounds of drinking, Sun Jiuding's eyes signaled, the brothers raised their wine glasses, and Sun Jiuding said: "Students are ashamed, a glass to a few gentlemen!"

Zhang Xiaochun picked up his wine glass, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Sun Kunzhong, your brothers are all talented and noble people. In the future, as an official, you must be worthy of the sky, worthy of Li Min, Bingqing jade pot, don't let the world look down on you, let's encourage you. ”

His sentence "The top is worthy of the sky, and the bottom is worthy of the Li people", from beginning to end, did not include the emperor and the court of the Dajin Kingdom. The Sun brothers also knew it, and they even claimed to be.

Seeing that the attention of the people around him was not here, Wu Ji said with a low wry smile: "Brother Sun, everyone is a person who has lost the country, and there is no choice but to let the flowers fall.

The faces of the three brothers were red and white for a while. Wu Ji, a former minister of the Great Song Dynasty, spoke more directly than Zhang Xiaochun, and already had the meaning of reprimanding the three Sun brothers for joining the thieves.

Sun Jiuding said: "Song Tingjun is faint and mediocre, and even a person like Wang Song, who has made meritorious contributions to the country, can be given the title of "Miao Chou" after his death, which makes people all over the world cold. Moreover, the Son of Heaven should guard the country and protect the people, and the ministers should be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness, but the Great Song Dynasty court cut the land north of the Yellow River and moved the royal family to the south; The ministers only know that the party is vying for power, the wind and snow, and the poetry is against it, and what hope is there for the country and the people. How can such a court be called the Celestial Empire?"

"My three brothers have been ruined for half their lives, and their future has already been ruined in the Great Song Dynasty, can't they be officials in the Jin Dynasty, educate the people, persuade Kenongsang, appease the displaced people, and let the people live a good life, what's wrong with this?"

Sun Jiuding moved the real fire, his voice gradually became louder, and the Jin officials next to him turned their heads and looked at several people in surprise.

Wu Ji changed color and said angrily: "The Jin people killed me and the Song people are innumerable, even if your brother has a thousand reasons, he can't be a slave." If you lose money in the big festival, you will be scolded by future generations!"

"As long as you are worthy of your heart, serving as an official and benefiting one party, isn't it better than escaping?"

Sun Jiuli supported his brother and joined the debate.

Their brothers have already discussed it. It is to create such an effect, so that everyone next to him also knows about it, so as to avoid future disasters and be able to get out of the way.

Seeing that it attracted the attention of the Jin people, the Han people next to him hurriedly comforted: "Ladies and gentlemen, everyone is a scholar, calm down, don't be impatient!"

Among these people, their identities are different, and he is a Han person, and he does not dare to talk nonsense, so as not to cause trouble and cause unnecessary trouble.

"But you have forgotten the distinction of Huayi and the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period!"

Zhang Xiaochun was extremely disappointed in his heart, he shook his head slightly, and only spit out a sentence after a long time: "The old man's words have been said, everyone should do it for themselves!"

When the Sun brothers saw that their goal was achieved, they no longer acted in the excitement. A few of them, naturally, don't want Zhang Xiaochun and Wu Ji to be unable to get off the stage.

These two men were imprisoned in a foreign country, and they were already in a precarious situation, and it would be a big mistake to suffer bad luck because of their words.

They still have this bit of style of readers.

Sun Jiuding smiled at the surprised Jin official: "Shangguan is not strange. There were some disputes over the poems in the next few people, which made everyone laugh. ”

The Jin official surnamed Shi and the other two officials suddenly came to their senses, shook their heads and laughed together. A Jurchen official smiled and said: "You southerners know that the wind and snow and the moon are against each other, otherwise how could I let the iron cavalry of the Jin Kingdom kill all directions and be invincible."

Sun Jiuding shook his head and said with a smile: "General Pucha, there have been heroes in all dynasties. Han has Huo Quai, Wei Qing, Tang has Li Jing, Xu Shiji, and my dynasty is Taizu Aguda, it can be seen that heroes are born with the situation, and now it is in the golden era, naturally there are many heroes. ”

General Pucha was proud in his heart, laughed, nodded and said, "Zhuangyuanlang, you really have some knowledge. Nice, nice!"

"General Pucha, I want to ask, I heard that the third prince and the great general Yanmu are both folded under the hands of the southerners, yes or no."

As soon as Zhang Xiaochun's words came out, goosebumps rose on Wu Ji's body. He looked to the side, for fear that the Jurchens would get angry and be unfavorable to Zhang Xiaochun.

Several Jin officials were stunned for a moment, and two of the Jurchen officials turned red.

General Pucha slapped the table, stood up, pointed at Zhang Xiaochun, and said angrily: "Fight on the battlefield, and each has its own destiny." What are your intentions, do you have to embarrass me, you are not afraid that I will cut off your dog's head"

The crowd in the audience was shocked. The official surnamed Shi hurriedly stood up and persuaded: "General Pucha, Zhang Xianggong, hurry up and sit down, today is the national test, don't disturb the scene!"

Zhang Xiaochun was unrelenting, and said coldly: "General Pucha, everyone, the old man just wants you to know that there are heroes among my southerners!"

General Pucha's personality is extremely bold, plus he speaks Chinese well, he reads a lot of Chinese books, and he is quite Confucian, so he is not a cruel and easy to kill.

He sat down, his face was full of unhappiness, he poured a glass of wine, shook his head, and said, "Among you southerners, that Wang Song is a hero. Except for him, even the Song Emperor is just a timid and mediocre rat; Wenchen military generals, there are a lot of wastes, and none of them can be put on the table! ”

Zhang Xiaochun's face was flushed, and he wanted to refute, but he couldn't speak. Wu Ji, who was next to him, hurriedly pulled him to sit down.

Sun Jiuding was shocked. As General Pucha said, this Wang Song really has some skills.

"You're a man, you have a bit of backbone in you!"

General Pucha laughed when he saw that Zhang Xiaochun's face was blue and extremely ugly.

He turned his head and began to drink and eat meat with the people next to him again, completely forgetting about Zhang Xiaochun.

Zhang Xiaochun was indignant in his heart, and he poured wine alone, but Wu Ji couldn't stop him, so he had to accompany him and get drunk to relieve his sorrows.

The two of you went back and forth, and soon they were as drunk as mud, and they completely regarded the people and officials in the courtyard as air.

"This Zhang Xiaochun is a little bold, but he is a little pedantic!"

Seeing that the two were drunk, General Pucha shook his head, waved his hand, and the sergeant on the side came up and helped the two down.

"Second brother, haven't you noticed, at today's banquet, those golden people are very respectful, but the chief examiner Zhang Xiaochun and the deputy chief examiner Wu Ji are lukewarm to us, which makes people not depressed."

The banquet broke up unhappily, ended hastily, and returned to the room, Sun Jiuding angrily picked up a cup of tea and poured it down in one go.

The dignified champion Lang, but the examiner was drunk and didn't give the champion any face at all, which also made Sun Jiuding feel disgraced.

Hearing the eldest brother's indignant words, the third brother Sun Jiuyi laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Big brother doesn't know. Wanyan Zonghan has been persuading Zhang Xiaochun's father and son to defect to Jinguo, and even tortured him, but Zhang Xiaochun did not agree. How could such a person who cherishes his homeland, loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness give me a good look at these shameless people who ask for land and ask for help!"

Of the three brothers, the youngest Sun Jiuyi is also nearly forty years old. The three have been promoted for many years, but they have never been able to set foot in officialdom. To say that the three of them have no complaints about the scholars of the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty, no one believes them when they say it.

At their age, real benefits, real glory and wealth, fame and fortune are the most real. What country, nation, loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness are all not worth mentioning.

Sun Jiu's temperament should be softer, he shook his head and said: "Zhang Xiaochun is in prison, he does not forget his homeland, and he can be regarded as a loyal and righteous person. Let's not cling to his attitude. ”

Sun Jiuding nodded, today's goal has been achieved. At the very least, Wang Song can know that his brothers are all hard-working, not unscrupulous people who are dedicated to being officials and unscrupulous means.

"Big brother, second brother, I heard that Wang Song is recruiting talents in Lianghe, and you and my brother are also from Hedong, if you can serve under him, it will be a pleasure."

Hearing his younger brother's words, Sun Jiuding nodded and said, "The north of Taiyuan is under the control of the Jin people, and you and my brother can't go to Hedong." After Yan Zonghan recruited Hedong celebrities several times, our Sun family has long been ruined. If you can't seize this opportunity to restore the glory of the Sun family and glorify the court, I'm afraid there will be no chance in the future. ”

He brought his two younger brothers to take the exam, hoping to be able to title the gold list and light the lintel. As for the war situation of Song Jinxia, they who read books don't know, let alone care.

Whether it is the people or the government and the opposition, the general view seems that the Jurchens are bound to win and will unify the Central Plains sooner or later.

As for whether the Song people will come to settle accounts after the autumn in the future, it is not up to their brothers to decide.

"I don't know if you have noticed, the number of people who participated in the banquet tonight seems to be a lot less, and many people from Hebei have not come. But I don't know why? ”

Sun Jiuding frowned and said, "Either I learned about these traitors from the newspaper, or these people got the news privately." For the sake of their own honor, these people have become weak-hearted. No father and no mother, forgetting his ancestors, what a big hat! ”

In any case, the three brothers were helpless. Even if the loyal and righteous army succeeds in the future, the three of them will not be among the traitors after the autumn.

Sun Jiuding's face was heavy, and his eyebrows were even more worried.

This time, many people from the land of two rivers came to take the exam, but they behaved in a mess in the exam and did not dare to go to high school. There are also many people who don't come at all, but they don't know why.

Maybe tomorrow morning, many people will go to Hedong and Hebei to look for opportunities under Wang Song's tent again.

The excitement of high school has also vanished at this time, mixed with a faint sense of loss and unease. A small Wang Song, but the brothers were in chaos, losing ground in advance and retreat, and suffering from gains and losses.

Looking at the dark sky outside the window, the three brothers were all solemn and worried.

What the examiner Zhang Xiaochun said is that they are all people who have broken the country and died in their families, and what can be worth rejoicing.

Nowadays, we can only take one step at a time.

In the dark, I don't know who is borrowing wine to kill their sorrows, singing loudly, like night owls, so that the three Sun brothers toss and turn, unable to sleep.

"I have no intention of fighting for spring, I am jealous of the group, and I am scattered into mud and dust, only the fragrance is the same as before......"
