As the so-called ass decides the head, Wang Lang is now the king of a country, and what he thinks about is things, in addition to making the Xia Kingdom prosperous, it is more about how not to let others threaten his position.

Ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, both Ming Jun and Duan Jun are more or less wary of the ministers, although Wang Lang can't do the kind of ruthlessness of the cunning rabbit and the dead lackey, and the birds are good and the bow is hidden, but he will not lack the heart of defense against people.

With the improvement of Xia people's wisdom little by little, most people have now got rid of the ignorance of primitive people, and their minds have become more active.

Thinking too much will make people more and more uneasy about the status quo, solve the problem of food and clothing, will ask for more rights, ordinary people can become officials, soldiers can be promoted through military exploits, but to the point where there is no promotion, it is difficult to ensure that some people will not take risks and go further, especially the commanders who hold military power.

Lin Jianya's various behaviors can be said to be an infringement of imperial power, which has to make Wang Lang suspicious, but this guy has followed Wang Lang for so long, out of emotional considerations, he is not willing to order Lin Jianya, but if he doesn't do this, it is difficult to make him feel at ease.

In the city of the forest, Lin Jianya looked at Wang Lang's secret decree, and his face was extremely gloomy.

Lin Shi looked at Lin Jianya, who was not on the right turntable, and hurriedly asked, "Chief soldier, what did Your Majesty say?" ”

"See for yourself!"

As he spoke, he threw the secret decree to Lin Shi.

Lin Shi opened it and saw that it was written: "Order Lin Jianya to return immediately, the army will be temporarily handed over to Lin Shi to be responsible, and immediately bury the corpse in the altar, this kind of punishment will not be allowed in the future, if there is a recurrence, it will be severely punished, in July of the third year of Taichu, Wang Langxuan, the emperor of Xia State!" ”

Lin Shi put away the secret decree and said to Lin Jianya: "Chief soldier, Your Majesty seems to know about that matter, I think you still obey Your Majesty's will!" ”

"Obey a fart, I just killed a man-eating barbarian, and I want to take my military power, I don't accept it! Why didn't he want to think about how much credit I had made for Xia Guoguo and how much territory I had conquered. Lin Jianya said angrily.

When Lin Shi heard this, he was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Chief soldier, don't talk nonsense, Your Majesty has a reason for doing this, why don't you go back and ask Your Majesty in person." ”

"Hehe, reason, what kind of reason can there be, I think he has a problem with his head when he is the emperor, why, you are looking forward to me going back so much, do you want to climb on my head." Lin Jianya stared at Lin Shi coldly.

"What nonsense are you talking about, how long have you and I known each other, how can you think so, think for yourself! Hum! ”

After that, Lin Shi, who was furious, slammed the wine glass on the table and got up and left here.

Lin Jianya, who was extremely angry, went crazy and smashed everything that could be seen in the house.

A few days later, Lin Jianya, who had calmed down, handed over the military power to Lin Shi and returned to Yancheng with his personal guards.

The time is slowly approaching the first talent ceremony of the Xia Kingdom, and in the various school palaces in the Xia Kingdom, the students who meet the examination conditions are throwing themselves into the books without sleep and food, wanting to remember more knowledge in this last time.

This examination is related to the fate of many people, and the Ministry of Rites has also sent officials to personally guide these students in the Taoist Palace, in addition to the knowledge in books, these officials who have worked for many years can also teach these young people some of their own political experience.

And among these people who are preparing to take the exam, it is easiest for Wang He, who is allowed to take the exam exceptionally, as long as he is recognized by Wang Lang in the exam, he is considered successful, and he has no pressure at the moment.

"Wind, come and play with me, they found something good outside the city!" Wang He said excitedly to Wu Feng.

"I'm not going, you guys go, I'm going to read a little more." Wu Feng shook his head and said.

Wang Lang pouted and said, "You are only ten years old this year, and you are not yet ready to take the exam, so what are you doing so desperately?" ”

Wu Feng closed the book and said slowly: "I am different from you, I am a person who does not have a biological father, my mother brought me up, I must work hard, only by becoming an official of Great Xia can I repay my mother's kindness!" ”

Wang He was silent for a while, and said: "Do you want to be a civil official so much, how majestic it is to be an officer to fight in the Quartet!" ”

Wu Feng shook his head and said, "Although the general is majestic, it is not what I am pursuing, what attracts me most in the Xia Kingdom is not the powerful army, but all this in front of me!" ”

Wang He looked around, scratched his head with a puzzled expression, and said, "What's so attractive about these!" ”

"I'm older than you, I still remember some of my life before I came to Xia Kingdom, at that time I lived in fear every day, maybe I would die one day, dead people were a very common thing at that time, there were a few children as old as me in the tribe at that time, only I survived under the desperate protection of my mother, and I was lucky to enter the Xia Kingdom."

Speaking of this, Wu Feng leaned back in his chair and looked into the distance, as if he was recalling the cruel time he had had.

"He, I want to be a civil official, only a civil official can make the life of the people better, only by learning the knowledge in books, can we create more useful things, you look at this paper, the clothes we wear, the houses we live in, these are not all brought by knowledge, I prefer these to lead the troops to fight." Wu Feng smiled.

Wang He scratched his head, still a little incomprehensible to Wu Feng's strange thoughts, and pouted: "Okay, then you continue to study, I'm going to go out to play, and if you don't leave, those guys should finish catching all the good things." ”

After saying that, he hurried out of the city like a gust of wind.

Wu Feng shook his head and smiled, opened the book he borrowed from the library, and continued to study the profound knowledge inside, which was a pleasure for him.

A month later, Xia Guo's first talent selection exam officially began.

On the first day of October in the third year of Taichu, this day is of great significance in the history of education in the Xia Kingdom.

Since this year, the exam, which is held every three years, has become an important opportunity for carp to leap into the dragon gate.

As Wang Lang said in his poem of persuasion, the court is Tian Shelang, the twilight is the Tianzi Hall, and the examination system gives those ordinary people the opportunity to become the pillars of the country, and the signs of the aristocratic gate valve are strangled by Wang Lang in the womb of power under the examination system.

On the day of the examination, the Ministry of Rites issued an order that no one should be allowed to make loud noises, and if anyone was found, the Ministry of Punishment would immediately send someone to arrest him, and he would be punished for the crime of disturbing the peace, and he would be fined three months' imprisonment and a fine of 100 copper coins.

Facing the soldiers patrolling back and forth, the people of Yancheng were trembling this day, and they didn't dare to take a bite of the atmosphere.
