Chapter 194: A Storm Rises at the Mid-Autumn Festival

"Your Majesty, after the joint trial of the ministers, it is proposed to take Lu Duoxun, the son of Hanoi, as the head of the Jinshi. This person's article is simple, but quite insightful, analysed by the current situation, and deeply pertinent. He Ning replied, his tone full of appreciation.

"Oh?" Liu Chengyou immediately said: "Take the scroll to me!" ”

"Yes!"

He Ning personally found it and presented it to Liu Chengyou. Regarding the "fill-in-the-blank question", skipping it directly, Liu Chengyou set his sights on practice, and also selected criminal cases, examined his trial and juju law, and answered very well and methodically.

Liu Chengyou looked at He Ning: "How old is this person?" ”

He Ning replied: "Less than twenty!" ”

"Looking at this person's book, he has a lot of experience in criminal cases and prisons, which is a bit unexpected!" Liu Chengyou said softly.

Sensing the suspicion in the tone of the Son of Heaven, He Ning hurriedly explained: "The minister has inquired that after Lu Duoxun became an official eunuch, or followed his father, he heard and saw it, so he was familiar with the laws of government affairs and criminal law, and he was outstanding!" ”

"After the eunuch." Liu Chengyou muttered: "Who is his father?" ”

"Pacify the prefect Lu Yi!"

"It's him! It is possible to explain it this way. Lu Yi is frugal and proficient in government affairs, and it is understandable that he can have a son! Liu Chengyou's tone did not change.

Pingding Mansion is based on the original Liaozhou in Hedong Province, the imperial court selected officials, recommended Lu Yi, Liu Chengyou secretly sent people to investigate, successively held many positions, outstanding political achievements, good official reputation. Before taking office, he also met with him and dealt with it decently, which can be regarded as a cadre.

Liu Chengyou picked up the policy article he wrote again, about the discussion of Pingshu. In this regard, Lu Duoxun, like many people, suggested that Jinghu Lake should be taken first, and after occupying the belly of the world, then from the east and north, two ways to cut down Shu. He also pointed out that now is not a good opportunity to cut down Shu, in addition to hoarding ordnance, grain and grass, it is also necessary to train the ability of soldiers to march in the mountains and attack fortified positions. It is recommended to send more careful work to bribe and spy to achieve the effect of knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent.

For those bombastic suggestions, Liu Chengyou is not surprised. However, there is one point, for the imperial court's current move to undisguise its intention to destroy Shu and train soldiers and horses outside Qin Feng's borders, it is directly pointed out that it is to lure the Shu army out of the Qinling Mountains and annihilate its vital forces......

Reading through his article, Liu Chengyou has only one feeling, he is young, confident and frivolous, and has the meaning of showing off his talents.

"Lu Duoxun's text, Qing and others have read it?" Liu Chengyou raised his eyes and stared at He Ning.

The emperor's eyes were a little terrifying, and He Ning did not dare to slack off, and replied with some caution: "Exactly! ”

Bowing his head slightly, his eyes gradually calmed down, Liu Chengyou calmly threw down a strict order: "Tell the officials, keep silent about this, dare to leak and spread the word, once it is found out, the crime will die!" ”

"Yes!" The emperor's tone was terrifying, and he was frightened, and he tensed his body and responded: "The minister will give the order!" ”

"Also, twenty people will be selected for the palace examination, and I will test them again! For the rest, according to the admission quota, let's release the list! After the order, Liu Chengyou left the Jixian Palace.

In the midst of the joys and sorrows of staying in Tokyo, the emperor list was released, and there was a boil, a sentimentality, and many accidents.

The next day, Liu Chengyou, the Son of Heaven, conducted a canonical examination in the Chongyuan Palace, and personally named the champion, not Lu Duoxun, who was insightful and highly praised, but a scholar named Dong Chun. As for Lu Duosun, the point is the eye. Tanhua is to comfort Zhao Shang and hand over his second son Zhao Cao.

He also issued an edict to raise champions, list eyes, and flowers, all of whom were invited to enter the palace and participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

The night is getting deeper, in the Chongyuan Palace, the imperial banquet is in full swing, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival of the year, the Son of Heaven sends an edict, and the high-ranking officials and nobles enter the palace to go to the banquet, in order to enjoy the joy of the monarch and the ministers, and spend the festival together.

Dong Chunfang, the champion of the new department, wrote a poem, praising the saintliness of the Son of Heaven and the prosperity of the Han Dynasty, which attracted applause and cheers from the audience. Of course, it was the civil servants and scholars who were surging in the number of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China who were in full swing.

"Lu Lang, this champion Lang wrote a poem, you are a leader, and you have also changed your talents, can you have a masterpiece?" Prime Minister Feng Dao, stroked his white beard, looked at Lu Duoxun with a smile, and said loudly.

The three scholars of the palace examination sit in the middle position to show the importance of the talented. Lu Duoxun was next to Dong Chun, the champion, in a state of emotion, and drank himself. He Ye, of course, was unwilling in his heart, when he tried the palace, he compared Dong Chun's text with what he had done, and felt that he was inferior to himself, but the emperor chose Dong Chun's champion.

At this time, he was named by Prime Minister Feng Dao, but he could only force a smile and look at the royal steps, the Son of Heaven was sitting high, and his eyes fell on him.

Drinking the wine in the cup, Lu Duoxun got up and walked to the hall, bowed down: "The minister has a gift, and he is clumsy to congratulate the Mid-Autumn Festival, please comment on Your Majesty and the public!" ”

"Then let's listen to Bangyanlang's masterpiece!" Liu Chengyou smiled faintly and stretched out his hand to signal.

There are always joys and worries, and in this warm atmosphere, there are always people with warm eyes and sad hearts. On the seat where the general of the guard division was located, Wang Jun looked at the performance of the Jinshi, Wenchen was excited, the Son of Heaven smiled, and couldn't help but snort softly: "We are waiting to create the country, born and die, it is better to be a scholar and talk about poetry." These people, who can't kill the enemy when they go into battle, can't govern when they get off the horse, what qualifications do they have to be coquettish in this hall! His Majesty reuses civil servants and despises military generals, which can be seen from this! ”

Wang Jun's voice was not small, and several generals around him heard it, some of them agreed, and some of them smiled reservedly.

"General Han, do you say yes or no?" Wang Jun asked Han Tong beside him.

Han Tong was beside him, smiled embarrassedly, gently pulled Wang Jun's sleeve, and reminded: "Squire, the literati chant poetry, what do we have to do." For the festive feast, it is better to talk less and not to spoil the fun. Otherwise, it will not be good to make Your Majesty angry! ”

As he spoke, Han Tong also glanced at the throne and hinted to Wang Jun. However, Han Tong obviously doesn't know how to speak, let alone persuade people, and his words are a little harsh to Wang Jun's ears.

Turning his head to stare at Han Tong, he smiled contemptuously, and said leisurely: "Oh, Ben Shuai has forgotten that General Han is the confidant and favorite general of the Son of Heaven, and he has always been relied on and has always been submissive. Why, do you want to play a copy of me to the emperor, if the Son of Heaven orders and takes away my position, this guard will command the position of the envoy, but it is your Han Tong's! ”

Where did Han Tong think of it, he persuaded him with kind words, and he actually got such a result. was not a good-tempered person, but in the face of Wang Jun's attack, his eyes glared, and he said angrily: "I am kind of persuasion, but you are unreasonable, so you treat me like this, when I am so bullied?" ”

Seeing Han Tong's reaction, Wang Jun couldn't help but smile, and looked at him for a long time: "Are you reasonable?" This is really a strange thing, on weekdays in the army, domineering, arrogant speech, changed to the main hall, it will be low eyebrows and pleasing to the eyes? ”

"Such urgency, didn't I say it hurts?" The contempt in Wang Jun's eyes was even stronger, and his words were like knives, teasing Han Tong who was on the verge of rage: "I'm afraid that in my heart, I really can't wait to see this handsome unlucky, and then be promoted!" ”

"Oh yes, I heard that your son is also a jinshi? No wonder the reaction is like this, the martial artist who doesn't know how to scheming, doesn't he want to be a poetry and book heirloom? Haha......"

In the face of Wang Jun's sarcasm and ridicule, where could Han Tong stand it, his brain was hot, he slapped the table case suddenly, leaned over and grabbed Wang Jun's collar. In terms of physique and bravery, where is Wang Jun's opponent of Han Tong, and he drank a lot of wine, and was directly knocked down. Seeing the big fist of the steamed bun, it quickly approached his cheek.

I subconsciously closed my eyes, but I didn't feel any pain. When he opened his eyes, he found that Han Tong was held up by Wang Yin and Du Hanhui, and he was still persuading him.

The movement here can be a unique scenery on the Chongyuan Palace, which once again attracted everyone's attention. When his eyes were cast, he saw Han Tong invading Wang Jun, and the scene slowly calmed down, and the warm atmosphere was like being poured cold by a basin of cold water.

Liu Chengyou's side was chatting with Fu Yanqing, the king of Wei, who had returned to Beijing, and the atmosphere was harmonious between Weng and his son-in-law. Seeing this, the smile gradually froze, and he put down the wine glass vigorously, and with a "snap", it fell into everyone's ears.

Liu Chengyou wondered why every time there was such an occasion, someone always jumped out to destroy the atmosphere, and they were all his trusted generals. Last time, it was Wang Yansheng and Sun Li, and this time, it became Han Tong, and they moved right under his nose.

"Why, the two of you think that singing and dancing are not enough fun, and you want to try it out in the palace to help me and the princes?" Coldly, Liu Chengyou stared at Han Tong.

Facing the cold interrogation of the Son of Heaven, Han Tong calmed down, reacted, let go of Wang Jun, got rid of Wang Yin and Du Hanhui, hurriedly got up and walked to the hall, and knelt on the ground: "The minister is drunk and out of shape, please forgive your majesty!" ”

Drunk, what a good excuse.

Stared at Han Tong, and then looked at Wang Jun, only to see that his breath was short and his face was ugly, he didn't expect that Han Tong would dare to be so irritable, and his face today was lost.

"There are so many drunkards in the army!" Liu Chengyou retracted his gaze and smiled at Wenwu, as if he wanted to liven up the atmosphere: "Come on, go down with General Han and let him sober up!" ”

The civil and military forces present echoed it, and no matter what, the atmosphere had to be maintained.

However, Wang Jun stood up, straightened his clothes, arched his hand to Liu Chengyou, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Han Tongmu has no court etiquette, on this festive season, Chongyuan Imperial Banquet, dare to go to his colleagues, wave his fists at each other, and collide with him, if he is not severely punished, His Majesty and the court, where is the majesty?" ”

When Wang Jun's words fell, another basin of cold water was poured down, and Liu Chengyou's eyes were completely cold.
