Chapter 304: Han Qi is on the list
As a traditional scholar, Han Qi still has some incomprehension of this kind of thing, but he finally understood the plan of the Japanese people, it turned out that he wanted to borrow the seeds of the Great Song Dynasty to improve their race, no wonder they wanted to be free of charge for the Guozijian and the lifters, after all, from the perspective of the world, these two are dragons and phoenixes among people, and their future is limitless, and their species are naturally much stronger than ordinary people.
"The world is so big, it's really amazing!" Han Qi couldn't help but sigh at this time, but then he took the case and said, "No, how can the blood of my great Song Shizi be easily given to others, I must tell everyone about this matter, lest someone fall for the beauty trick of the widows!" ”
After Han Qi finished speaking, he bowed his hand to Li Zhang, and immediately turned around and left, Li Zhang laughed and did not stop him, although this is what you and I want, but Han Qi, as a scholar, takes the world as his own responsibility, and it is not surprising that he has such a sense of responsibility, which shows that the juvenile blood on his body has not cooled down.
Early the next morning, Li Zhang asked people to send the scary Japanese people back, and by the way, he also inquired about the affairs of the Japanese mission, but he didn't know if he didn't inquire, and he was startled when he inquired, it turned out that the scale of the Japanese mission was quite large, in addition to the official members of the mission, there were also a group of Japanese merchants who came to the Great Song Dynasty, and they brought all kinds of goods to women, such as the one borrowed from the opposite of the Guozijian, which was one of the Japanese merchants.
However, the farce of borrowing seeds only lasted less than three days, because Han Qi united a group of scholars to complain to Kaifeng Mansion, saying that these Japanese people were immoral, so they were driven away by the people of Kaifeng Mansion.
In addition to these, Li Zhang also inquired that after the Japanese envoy came to the capital, in addition to the businessman's activities everywhere, the mission also gave gifts to some important ministers of the Great Song Dynasty, such as the ones he received, but these Japanese gifts did not know how to cover up, they were all blatantly sent over, and the Japanese women were too scary, so many people retreated.
Li Zhang was also very curious about the abnormal behavior of the Wa Kingdom, because he had inquired that in the past, because the Wa Kingdom needed to come across the sea, there were generally not many people in the mission, and they were very low-key after they came, but this time so many people came at once, and they were so active, it was really a bit abnormal.
"Cousin, I've inquired about what you want to inquire about." On this day, Li Zhang came to Gyeongbok Palace, and as soon as Zhao Zhen saw him, he immediately said excitedly.
"What's the matter?" Li Zhang couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Zhao Zhen's excited appearance.
"Didn't you ask me to inquire about the news of the Japanese mission last time, I already inquired!" Zhao Zhen said excitedly at this time, although he has no power in his hands, but after all, he is getting older, and at the request of the ministers, Liu E also has to let Zhao Zhen participate in some government affairs, so he can access many confidential things.
"Great, this time the Japanese mission is a little unusual, what news have you heard?" Li Zhang also hurriedly asked at this time, he had also been thinking about the affairs of the Japanese delegation in the past few days, but he had no contact with the Japanese mission, so he couldn't find a way to inquire about the news.
"Hehe, I heard a lot of news, in fact, the Japanese people came to our Great Song Dynasty this time because they asked us." I saw Zhao Zhen smile proudly at this time.
"Asking us? What do you mean? Li Zhang also asked with a puzzled expression when he heard Zhao Zhen's words.
"This matter is a long story, the cause of the matter is very complicated, one is that the old Guan Bai of the Wa Kingdom is old, so he passed the position to his son, and this new Guan Bai is different from his father, he doesn't want to communicate with the outside world like before, so he vigorously sent missions abroad, and even organized a group of business groups to accompany the mission."
When he said this, he saw Zhao Zhen pause for a moment and then said: "In addition to Guan Bai's replacement, there are also some reasons for Goryeo, the current king of Goryeo is named Wang Xun, who is a very accomplished monarch, and even seven years ago, he also defeated the Khitan invasion army, although he later took the initiative to pay tribute to the Khitan, but also retained face, and under his governance, Goryeo's strength has risen sharply, although there is no big contradiction between Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom, but the new Guan Bai is still a little uneasy. ”
"I understand, after Goryeo defected to the Khitan, its strength rose sharply, and the Wa State was worried about Goryeo's outward expansion, so it strengthened its ties with our Great Song Dynasty." Li Zhang finally nodded when he heard this.
"Yes, that's the way it is, speaking of Goryeo, when they were at war with the Khitan seven years ago, they also sent an embassy to our Great Song Dynasty for help, but at that time, my father was seriously ill, and the eldest lady was not willing to fight with Liao because of Goryeo, so she rejected Goryeo's request, but I didn't expect that Goryeo would defeat the Khitan invasion army later, and also took the initiative to sue for peace, so it seems that the king of Goryeo is a person who can bend and stretch." Zhao Zhen spoke again at this time.
Li Zhang couldn't help but sigh when he heard Zhao Zhen's words, in fact, when the Khitan invaded Goryeo, it was also the weakest time for the Khitan, because the Khitan was in constant internal strife at that time, but it also used troops from time to time, but unfortunately the Great Song Dynasty was also extremely weak at that time, and Zhao Heng's Tianshu Movement emptied the entire treasury, otherwise it would be a good time to recover Yanyun.
Understanding the intention of the Japanese people, Li Zhang's doubts in his heart were finally solved, for the Japanese country to take the initiative to strengthen exchanges, Li Zhang felt that there was no harm, although he did not like the Japanese country very much, but the necessary exchanges still had to be had, and the goods of the Great Song Dynasty were in a strong position, as long as the Japanese wanted to buy, the Great Song Dynasty could always get benefits from it.
"Cousin, I heard that the Japanese envoy sent you a Japanese girl, how is it, what is the difference between the Japanese girl and our women in the Great Song Dynasty?" Zhao Zhen suddenly smiled a little obscenely at this time, and then asked Li Zhang awkwardly.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'll return that widow the next day, you haven't seen that widow, it's just too scary, the powder on your face is three inches thick, and your teeth are still black, if you like it, I'll go to the Japanese embassy and come back to give it to you." Li Zhang's face turned dark when he heard Zhao Zhen's words, he didn't expect that the news had already reached the palace.
"Hehe, I still like the women of our Great Song Dynasty, and there are rules in the palace, and women of different races are generally not allowed to enter the palace." Zhao Zhen smiled cheekily at this time, since he got married, he has become more and more open to men and women, and he doesn't take care of Li Zhang's idea of a single dog at all.
The Japanese envoy stayed in the Great Song Dynasty for a few months, and only left the capital when the weather turned cooler, and the accompanying merchant group also left together, and took a lot of goods with them when they left, of course, there were many women with big bellies, Li Zhang had never seen the Japanese envoys from beginning to end, of course, he was too lazy to deal with the other party, and now the strength of the Great Song Dynasty was still too weak, and the Japanese State was too far away, so it could not affect there for the time being, and the Liao State and the Northwest were the most concerned issues of the Great Song Dynasty.
Not long after the departure of the Japanese Mission, the long-lost imperial examination was finally about to begin, Han Qi has been studying hard behind closed doors for the past few months, even if he is confident that he has only learned people, but he still does not dare to relax in the face of such a big move.
In fact, Li Zhang really wanted Han Qi to help him introduce Ouyang Xiu, after all, he was also very curious about this one of the eight great families in history, but he couldn't bear to disturb when he saw Han Qi studying hard, and now Ouyang Xiu must be the same as Han Qi, he can't see outsiders in a certain place, and his visit at this time is really a little abrupt.
The imperial examination is generally held in autumn, so it is also called the autumn festival, as the weather turns colder, it is finally the day of the autumn festival, and Han Qi finally broke through at this time, brought the prepared pen and ink and other things, said goodbye to Li Zhang and entered the examination room, and Han Qi went in with the people from all over the country, adding up to tens of thousands of people, but there are less than 100 people who can really be admitted, which can be called a real one in a hundred.
For a few days, the lifters have to answer questions in the examination room, and when the exam is over, these people are all tired, and then they are anxiously waiting for the day of the list, and this will also determine their fate.
In fact, the imperial examination is divided into three steps, one is the township examination, which is to select outstanding scholars from all over the country to go to Beijing, and these people are called Juzi or Gongsheng; The second step is the examination, that is, the one that Han Qi and they participated in, which was presided over by the imperial court and held in the capital, and after a few days of examination, everyone selected the outstanding ones, that is, Jinshi.
However, after the examination, there was a palace examination, the palace examination was originally in the Tang Dynasty, but it was not often held, and in the Song Dynasty, there was a year during the imperial examination, because the unsuccessful lifter was not satisfied, so he knocked on the drum to sue the royal complaint, at that time Zhao Kuangyin picked out some of the unsuccessful lifters and the list of lifters to participate in the palace examination, as a result, many of the failed lifters turned out to be high school, but some of the lifters on the list fled, for which Zhao Kuangyin was also very annoyed, so the palace examination was set after the exam, and each imperial examination had to be checked by the emperor himself.
As the name suggests, the palace examination is held in the palace in the palace, because Zhao Kuangyin was originally held in the palace of martial arts, so the later palace examinations were also held in the martial arts, and now Zhao Zhen's age is enough to personally preside over the palace examination, and it is precisely for this reason that after the examination, the list of those who passed the examination was also sent to Zhao Zhen, and the outside world has not yet announced.
With such conditions, Li Zhang naturally would not let go, so he also went to Zhao Zhen to have a sneak peek, and soon found Han Qi's name on the list, which made Li Zhang also breathe a sigh of relief, their firearms supervisor was also very short of talents, and this time Han Qi was just going to go.
However, just when Li Zhang wanted to find out if there was Ouyang Xiu's name again, he didn't expect to find it after searching for a long time, but finally found another familiar name.
