It was a snowy day, and Jun Tao's dance had been stranded due to the weather, and there was no news of the next step. The girls of Pingkangfang are anxious, although it is a friendship to take in, but there are more than 30 people in total who have entered the second round, and it is okay in the short term, and no one can stand it in the long term.

Daizhi and Juntao are in the same green building, which is strange to say, Juntao thought that Daizhi was an extremely difficult character to communicate, but the other party has been serving water and sending fruit these days, which makes Juntao very surprised.

Daizhi took off her makeup, and she looked far less glamorous, only slightly better looking than ordinary women, she could be regarded as delicate but could never be called a country and a city, which made Juntao feel a little lucky. The other party's enthusiastic gaze made Jun Tao's guard somewhat relaxed, and she became interested in her instead.

Juntao: "So it's from Jiannan Road?" ”

Dai Zhi nodded: "Yes, the ancestors are all there, I heard that Grandpa is a blacksmith, but not my Daddy." ”

Juntao: "Could it be that he doesn't want to be a blacksmith?" Isn't it a decent thing to inherit the mantle of the family? ”

Dai Zhi looked embarrassed: "In other words, I wouldn't do this, I don't know if he is stupid, but Daddy's idea is unrealistic, what do you want to be a literati, and you still don't pass the imperial examination for many years." ”

Juntao: "It's really difficult to be a man, after many years of failing in the exam, you should always go back to your grandfather, right?" Everyone has his own life, so naturally there is no need to force it. ”

Dai Zhi laughed: "When my sister said this, she must not understand my father." ”

Jun Tao didn't quite understand what she meant, Dai Zhi's face leaped over the melancholy affection, and in an instant disappeared without a trace like water waves, like a childish little girl.

"My dad still didn't go back, saying that he wanted to find his ideal and become a poet. Grandpa said that if you want to get out of the house like this, don't come back......"

These words were powerful, at least a seed fell in Jun Tao's heart, and she broke through the ground, and she grabbed Dai Zhi's hand as if she understood something.

On the contrary, Daizhi was a little relieved, "As a result, Daddy really dared to think and dare to do, just leave, our family was left behind, Grandpa was angry and passed away in a few years, and the brother in the family is the hardest." It didn't take long for me to grow up and feel that my family didn't care much about me, and they were all currying favor with this brother who was the breadwinner. ”

Happy people are so similar, but unhappy people are different, and the same person who is adrift in the wind and dust can understand each other best. Although for Jun Tao, it is a luxury to rely on, and people who have seen the light are extremely enviable. What can be gained and lost is much more heartbreaking than not in the beginning, Juntao has never had any family affection, so naturally there is no saying of loss. But Daizhi is different, she once had a complete family, but everything was lost.

Jun Tao's eyes were suddenly full of sympathy, she no longer cared about what this girl looked like on the stage before, a person's edges and corners are not innate, almost caused by the environment.

Everything is going well on the side of the election of officials, after all, the election of officials in the world is more important than the dance competition. Song Guogong is a trustworthy person, and after Luo Gan left, he still let Liu Buwen sign up smoothly with some channels, but he didn't do more, so as not to be accused of favoritism and fraud, which can only be regarded as a convenience.

coincided with the auspicious day of the zodiac, and the exam time was selected in Chang'an City, and after Liu Buwen carefully reviewed it, he determined that the exam time was the day after tomorrow, and everything had to have a result. Then he asked for leave from Qinglou, and he prepared well in the last two days, adjusted his state, and earned some money from entanglement, which was enough to deal with a period of life.

From Confucianism to the Legalist system, Liu Buwen is already familiar with it, and poetry and the like are also a little familiar. Liu Buwen plans to go to the bookstore to see if there is nothing good to motivate himself.

The time to go is unfortunate, the door of the book house is open and the shopkeeper is not there, so it should be impossible to buy books, but the atmosphere in Chang'an City is good, and no one in it is a traitor, but he flips through the books in an orderly manner, and carefully puts them back in place after reading.

The last column after passing through the three rows, there are some books on the legal system, and the more Liu Buwen learns, the more he can understand why he has admired "Confucianism and internal law" from ancient times to the present, which is nothing more than governing people by virtue and ruling things by law. Confucianism can well regulate the social atmosphere, as well as formulate moral standards, so that people can go their own way, do what they should do according to the social division of labor, and maintain social stability.

However, it is the legal system that can promote the times, and a sound legal system is the long-term plan and the basis for the rational operation of society. Liu Buwen looked at the "inspection system" in the Han law and the "Nine Grades in the Righteous Law" in the Wei and Jin dynasties, and noticed the changes in the election system and sighed.

"Emperor Yang of Sui is really an incredible emperor." Liu Buwen sighed deeply after reading it.

The prince who was standing on the side turned to look at Liu Buwen in surprise.

"Oh? actually praised the emperor of the previous dynasty, how can this opinion be seen? ”

Liu Buwen realized that the person in front of him had seen it last time, and he heard the shopkeeper say that it was the current Zheng Guogong Wei Zheng! My body trembled a little, but I didn't expect to say this in front of today's minister, and it would be difficult to escape death if I was a little careless!

Liu Bu turned a blind eye and responded respectfully: "It's me who is disrespectful, and I am so offended, I really deserve to die!" ”

Wei Zheng disagreed: "I've heard a lot of polite words, and I'm curious about what you, a scholar, think of Yang Guang." ”

Liu Buwen thought about it, since the words had already been spoken, if it wasn't justified, there would be no hope for his career in this life, so he had to bite the bullet.

"From the ancient inspection system, various localities recommended the talents of their own townships to enter the palace as officials, and it seems that those who win the hearts of the people will definitely become good officials, but in fact this is not entirely the case. In many places, people will show favoritism and promote people who are beneficial to them. Later, after the Jiupin Zhongzheng system, there was a certain screening, but to a large extent, it was regarded as after currying favor with the officials, as well as the squire's disciples, uniting many interest groups, which was advantageous in the early stage, but disadvantageous in the later stage. ”

Wei Zheng understood what Liu Buwen meant: "Then what do you mean is that the imperial examination system is a good system full of vitality?" ”

Liu Buwen: "I think history is similar, maybe in the future the imperial examination system will also be eliminated, but for the present, the imperial examination system is indeed progressive, is the only way for students to transform their identities from farmers and craftsmen to become officials, even if they can cheat for personal gain in the future, it still gives countless people a ray of life and gives the society hope, so I feel that Emperor Yang of Sui is not useless." ”

Wei Zheng didn't comment directly, but he had a smile on his face.

"The reason why the imperial examination has not been abolished by the Holy Lord, and some filling and improvement has been carried out at the same time, is that the current imperial examination system is indeed in line with the will of the people. The boat and the people of the water, let the water fluctuate, so that the boat can move. ”
