Chapter 164: Ancient Literary Society
Li Junxian sent Mulan away with the army, looking at Mulan who was a little reluctant, Li Junxian was comforting her. This is a rare counterinsurgency that doesn't have to be fought in real time, so Li Junxian has to let Mulan go even if he is reluctant, because this is a rare battle in recent years. What's more, the eldest grandson Wuji and Wei Chigong may not let Mulan really go to the front line. If I didn't know that he was a woman before, I'm afraid it was still possible. But if you really let a woman go to the front line of the battle, then I'm afraid many people will have to crook their mouths.
"Huh? Without Mulan, it's still a little bland! There's really nothing to do lately. Li Junxian thought secretly.
Because the front line wants to quell the rebellion, all kinds of yamen in Chang'an City are busy, and Li Junxian's position is the prince's guest and the free horseman, two positions that do not have much real power and no actual tasks, so they are idle. And Li Shimin didn't let Li Junxian explain the theory of war in the past few days, because Li Shimin, a real student, didn't have time, and those nominal princes and prince students didn't like to listen to the art of war. Therefore, Li Junxian has been a little idle in the past few days. And just when Li Junxian was a little idle, someone came to find something to do for Li Junxian.
"Knock knock!" "Is General Lee at home?"
As a maid, Wan'er went to open the door first, and Wan'er soon found a beautiful girl. This girl is about fifteen years old, but Li Junxian sees wisdom in her eyes, and maturity that does not match this age.
"Girl, who are you? Is there anything you are looking for me? Li Junxian asked.
"General Li, I heard that you have been very idle lately, I'm afraid you are in a hurry to find something, right? The little girl is here to invite you to a thesis conference in Taixue tomorrow. The girl said.
Li Junxian was secretly a little cautious, because there were not many people who could know that he had been idle recently, only court officials. And this girl, or the person behind the girl, has obviously investigated herself and knows that she has been idle recently. Since someone is investigating themselves, I'm afraid they have to ask themselves for something.
"Excuse me, Miss, who are you?" Li Junxian asked.
"General Li, the little girl Zheng Liwan, and her father is Zheng Renji, a former Sui Tongshi." The girl Zheng Liwan replied.
"Your name is Zheng Liwan, and your father is Zheng Renji?" Li Junxian asked.
"Yes! Has General Lee heard of the little woman? Zheng Liwan asked rhetorically.
"Hey, it's a pity!" Li Junxian whispered.
And Zheng Liwan frowned a little when she heard Li Junxian's words, and she didn't know what Li Junxian was sorry for. And Li Junxian is actually regretting Zheng Liwan's fate in the future, that is, he will not be able to marry in his life. According to Li Junxian's reading from the TV series "Zhenguan Long Song" and the history of the Tang Dynasty, this Zheng Liwan was originally recommended to Li Shimin by Empress Changsun in the second year of Zhenguan, and Li Shimin planned to canonize her as the first Chonghua. But just as the canonization ceremony was about to begin, Wei Zheng revealed that Zheng Liwan was engaged to a scholar named Lu Shuang. In ancient times, Zheng Liwan was already someone else's wife, and the emperor couldn't forcibly marry someone else's wife. As a result, the canonization was so yellow, and Lu Shuang didn't dare to admit that he was engaged this time. Then, no one dared to ask for Zheng Liwan, because Huang Yanjing was ready to be canonized as a concubine. Even if it doesn't work out later, no one will dare to marry it! In this case, Zheng Liwan never married in her life, because no one dared to marry.
"Did you come to me for something?" Li Junxian asked.
"General Li, as I just said, there will be a thesis conference tomorrow, which is a good opportunity for Datang students to communicate. The main participants were Guozijian, Taixue, and students from the four disciplines, and the venue of the conference was in Taixue. There, we can speak freely and talk about literary talent. We would like to invite General Li as a guest to judge the students' literary brilliance. Zheng Liwan said.
When Li Junxian heard it, he thought it was a flashy thing, because how useful can this kind of discussion be academic? Li Junxian subconsciously wanted to refuse.
"What qualifications do I have? I'm just a warrior! Li Junxian hurriedly said to himself.
"If General Li is just a martial artist, then I'm afraid there will be no literati in the world. A few of General Li's poems have spread throughout Chang'an, but they are quite famous, if General Li is a martial artist, then the little woman is really a peasant woman plowing the fields in the field. Zheng Liwan said with a smile.
Li Junxian frowned slightly, this Zheng Liwan's words were fierce enough.
"Miss Zheng, I'm not interested in these literati stuff! Have all one's goods in the window. Li Junxian didn't want to go, because he didn't want to continue plagiarizing the poems, after all, there are so many good poems, and if he keeps plagiarizing, I'm afraid it won't be enough in the future.
Zheng Liwan saw Li Junxian say this, and hurriedly explained again: "General Li, in fact, there are only a small part of our thesis conference to talk about, and more of them are about the disadvantages of the times and the policies of the imperial court. Now we have to test the policy theory in the imperial examination of the Tang Dynasty, so we are mainly talking about policy, and it is not something flashy. ”
Only then did Li Junxian remember that the imperial examination in the early Tang Dynasty was actually a practical examination, not a flashy thing about poetry and songs. Later, the reason why the literary society became those poems and songs was actually rooted in the fact that the imperial imperial examinations were all about those flashy things, which were caused by the changes in the imperial examination policy.
The policy theory is to ask a few questions about governance during the imperial court examination, and let the candidates answer them, which is also a disguised way to ask the candidates for advice. According to the reasonable surname of the candidate's answer, as well as the fluency of the relevant sentences, it is divided into several grades to award different grades of official positions. However, this kind of exam requires a very high level of life experience, and it is not something that ordinary young students can easily admit. Although it is difficult to take the exam, once you win the lift, the starting point is much higher than others. And if you want to be easier, then go to the Ming Jing, which only needs to be memorized and understood through the Confucian classics, so there is also a saying that there are thirty old Ming Jing and fifty young Jinshi, but the starting point of the Ming Jing is relatively low. For other subjects, it will not be in the stream, and even if it is a middle lift, there is no too high prospect.
Since Li Junxian is talking about the disadvantages of the current situation, it is also worth listening to. Because it is entirely possible to hear something different from these students, which can inspire the ancient rulers. Li Junxian has decided to go and see it, anyway, it's not bad to listen to the discussions of these students, just listen to a debate.
