Chapter 115: The Enemy Emerges
Early the next morning, Bao Zheng left, took Xu Gang's hand when he left, and asked him to go to the capital, he must go to him!
sent Bao Zheng away, and Shi Yinglong also offered to leave! It's just that before leaving, he called Xu Gang aside and told him the purpose of letting him study, Shi Yinglong didn't want to say it so early, but seeing that Xu Gang didn't let people stop all day long, he still decided to let him know.
"Zhengyuan, the old man asked you to study and take the top prize, so that you can go deep into the camp of the King of Shu as an internal response, and then the internal response and the external cooperation will destroy this traitor with wolf ambitions!" Speaking of this, Shi Yinglong paused slightly, glanced at Xu Gang, and saw that this kid looked indifferent, and he broke the news again: "According to Chazi's report, Zhang Yuan and Wu Hao are pseudonyms Huang Shimi and Huang Wei, and they instigated the King of Shu to sentence Song to be the emperor."
"General, what did you say? Zhang Yuan, Wu Hao! Are they in the palace of the king of Shu? Xu Gang's body trembled, and his tone was extremely excited.
"We found the Huang Shimi brothers in the Shu King's Mansion, which are indeed very similar to Zhang Yuan and Wu Hao. However, not long ago, the two went to Guangyuan Prefecture and temporarily cut off the clues. After Shi Yinglong finished speaking, he looked at Xu Gang beside him, who stared at the courtyard and didn't know what he was thinking!
Xu Gang's body suddenly moved slightly, a pair of starry eyes lit up, and there was a hint of firmness in his faint tone: "General, I'm going to Guangyuan Prefecture!" ”
"Smack~~"
"Ouch, General, what are you hitting me for?" Xu Gang turned his head, looked at Shi Yinglong with an aggrieved expression, and kept rubbing his head.
"What's the use of going alone? Now Nong Zhigao is very strict against the Song people, and even our chazi can't penetrate it! The general glared at him and scolded him.
"Uh~~ General, who is Nong Zhigao?" Xu Gang saw that the general did not allow him to go to Yongzhou, his eyes were a little gloomy, and he asked Nong Zhigao just because he was curious.
The general knew that he had resentment in his heart, so he glared at him and said slowly: "Guangyuan Prefecture is located in the west of Yongzhou, belonging to Guangnan West Road, this Nong Zhigao is the overlord of Guangyuan Prefecture, serving in the Jiaozhi country, but later Nong Zhigao's parents were killed by the lord of the Jiaozhi country, and they turned against each other."
As the general spoke, he began to walk around the courtyard, and Xu Gang followed closely and listened quietly: "After Nong Zhigao turned against the Jiaozhi Kingdom, since the beginning of this year, he has repeatedly asked to be a vassal to the imperial court. then he asked for an official position, but he was still refused; In the end, he only begged the court to give him a robe and a wat official uniform, and he paid tribute every year, but the court still did not agree."
After listening to the general's narration, Xu Gang felt very incredible, he read a lot of ancient books, the emperors of the past dynasties all took the expansion of territory as a great merit, why did they come to the Son of Heaven in this dynasty, others asked for belonging, and did not agree?
"Hey! This Nong Zhigao has begged for attachment many times and has been refused, and he must be very interested in the court! Now that Huang Shimi and Huang Wei have sneaked over secretly, they will definitely make a move! The admiral sighed, stopped, and said with a frown.
"General, why is the Son of Heaven so confused" Hearing the general's sigh, Xu Gang also felt it.
"Shut up, don't talk about the Son of Heaven! You know? If it reaches the ears of Yushi, how many heads will you have enough to cut off? The admiral turned his head abruptly, interrupted him, and glared at him sternly.
"Uh~~ I'm sorry, General!" Xu Gang also realized his gaffe and quickly stopped.
"Be careful in the future!" Seeing him nodding, the general's tone also faded, and he continued: "Since Huang Shimi and the others have now taken refuge in the King of Shu, they will definitely come back, so you study hard and take all the three yuan of the scientific examination for the old man!" ”
"After passing the Jinshi examination, I am a protégé of the Son of Heaven, this King of Shu wants to rebel, and I will become the head of his opponent, how can I get in?" Xu Gang muttered, and suddenly found traces of the enemy, his mind was full of how to take revenge, and he couldn't show the slightest interest in other things.
"The Son of Heaven? Although Taizu wanted to prevent the examiner and the candidates from colluding with each other in the name of the teacher-student relationship, he added the palace examination, so that the Son of Heaven became the final examiner, and all the candidates became the protégés of the Son of Heaven. ”
Speaking of this, the general sighed again and continued: "However, in fact, after the end of the examination, the teacher-student relationship between the examiner and the examinee was established, coupled with the fact that Zhang Yuandian failed to judge the country by his younger brother, the imperial court deliberately abolished the last elimination system, and all those who entered the palace examination were awarded Jinshi, and the same Jinshi was also created, which was to prevent the occurrence of any more incidents of literati judging the country. ”
Isn't Zhang Yuanluo's brother the arrangement of the Imperial City Division? How can you still reform for this matter! Xu Gang frowned, thought for a moment, and still couldn't figure it out, so he asked the general for advice.
"Zhengyuan, Zhang Yuanluo's brother is indeed arranged by us, but the ministers don't know! So they united to give the official family a fold and asked the Son of Heaven to reform, and the official family agreed to the ministers' suggestions in order to protect Zhang Yuan's identity and safety! The Admiral paused and explained to him.
"That's it, the old man will reveal something again! You know the punishment of Matthi! A trace of helplessness rose in the general's heart, worried that he would not work hard if he didn't let this little know something!
Xu Gang nodded when he heard this, this horse punishment seemed to embarrass him at the beginning, but it really helped him, Xu Gang still knew it very well in his heart.
"He is your immediate boss, the commander of the Condor Battalion of the Detective Army. A few years ago, we arranged for him to be rescued by the King of Shu, and then took refuge in the King of Shu "After walking for too long, the general found a flower platform and sat down."
"Oh, why do you want me to go when there is already such an internal response as a matti punishment?" Xu Gang still wanted to resign, hoping that the general would send him to investigate Zhang Yuan.
"But he is just a military general, although he is now the deputy envoy of the official to the punishment, he still can't get the full trust of the King of Shu, after all, he is not a person personally cultivated by the King of Shu, so he can't participate in relatively confidential things at all!" The general glanced at him, not knowing what he was thinking!
"However, in order to attract more talents, the King of Shu instructed the officials of the palace, as well as all the officials he bribed, to discover talents for him, especially outstanding students in the scientific examination!" The general looked at him silently again, as if to say: You are such a student!
"Your name has appeared in the list of the King of Shu, and the examiner of this subject is a confidant of the King of Shu, so the old man let you be admitted to the Jinshi!" The general stroked his beard and smiled.
"You really didn't disappoint the old man, the old man originally arranged for you to let Zhao Xuan give you a tribute test qualification, but who knew that you were admitted by yourself and took a Xie Yuan! Haha, the old man is very pleased! ”
Uh~~~ If I had known that everything was arranged, who would have studied so hard, really! Xu Gang rolled his eyes, feeling a little depressed. But after thinking about it, he felt that there was nothing wrong with reading, reading books could make those who were eager to learn from it, and let the ignorant become knowledgeable!
"Zhang Yuan and Wu Hao are not simple-minded, I don't know where they learned that the King of Shu was thirsty for talent, so they assumed the pseudonym Huang Shimi, Huang Wei, so they reworked and lost their younger brother in the last imperial examination, and then created a chance to put themselves under the account of the King of Shu, and soon won the trust of the King of Shu and became the confidant of the King of Shu!" The admiral frowned, and there was a slight resentment in his tone.
"So, as long as you also become the confidant of the King of Shu, I believe that one day, even if you are side by side with Zhang Yuan and Wu Hao, it is possible! When you want revenge, won't it be much easier? "The general has done so much foreshadowing, and finally said the benefits of letting Xu Gang blend into the Shu Palace. (To be continued.) )
