Liu Qi listened to Meng Qi's words, and did not make a sound, but played with the silver cup in his hand. The tableware in this Chunfeng Building www.biquge.info whether it is a bowl or chopsticks, a dish, or a wine pot and a wine glass, anyway, all the tableware is made of silver. The restaurant is a luxurious place, not only Chunfeng Building, but also Yingke Building, Fan Building, and Hefeng Building...... All the restaurants in Chang'an City are vying to use luxurious tableware. Ordinary diners sit down and bring up chopsticks and plates, which are all silverware. If you order a few more dishes, they will also be served in a silver basin. Do you want wine? The silver kettle is warmed, and then the wine is served.

The price of these silver plates and silver tableware is expensive, but the restaurant is very reassuring to customers and gives them enough face. Some diners don't want to go to the restaurant and want to have a treat at home, so they order wine and food from the restaurant, and these restaurants also bring silverware to the door. It wasn't until the next day that the guy was called to come to the door to take it back, which was quite ancient.

As soon as Meng Qi's words fell, Chen Shangfa retorted: "Yuan Chang, do you think that after becoming a ten-grade official, you can write a splendid article?" Don't forget, the last time you took the tribute test, you were ranked outside the thousand! ”

Hearing this, everyone in the audience held back their laughter. Chen Shangfa's implication is that the selection of ten-grade officials will not be Meng Qi's turn. Meng Qi is also a scholar, where can't he hear the meaning of Chen Shangfa's words? Being ridiculed like this, he blushed and refuted: "Wen has no first, Wu has no second." If you can't go to the subject, you may be able to get into this subject! ”

Chen Shangfa teased: "If you are a jinshi, and the ministry appoints you as the ten rank officials, do you go or not?" ”

Meng Qi stood up suddenly, and said loudly: "Zhang Zai has a saying, establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for the world." Although I, Meng Yuanchang, have no strengths, I can't do the last two sentences, but in the first two sentences, I can still do it by asking myself! ”

Everyone here is a lifter, how can they not know Zhang Zai? The person who was given the same Jinshi by the little emperor, was named the secretary of the provincial editor, and wrote books and biography full-time. Everyone here is looking at the good luck of others, thinking that they can do this, but they just lack luck. But they won't see how far apart they are from Zhang Zai's ideological realm. They are only interested in the origin of the Jinshi, and as for the classic historical books, they are just stepping stones for them to become officials. With such a cart before the horse, how could Lu Chengqi look down on them? It's really a night lang arrogant, sitting in a well and watching the sky!

The people here, except for Meng Qi, are all people who are eager for quick success, where can they see what to learn. is to sneer at the theme of Guan Xue, and feel that there is nothing to say. Meng Qi is different, he was born in poverty, and since he was a child, he was determined to serve the country and do things for the people, and he fell in love with Guan Xue at first sight. Since studying Guanxue, I have not only a deeper and more thorough understanding of the classics, but also an understanding of Zhang Zai's heart for the people. He also faintly noticed why the little emperor wanted to respect Guan Xue, and it was clear that Guan Xue was the same as the little emperor's new policy. It harms the interests of the bureaucracy and works for the benefit of the people full-time. How could such a doctrine be accepted by the official gentry clique!

Don't say that the official gentry group, that is, these people who have not yet set foot in the circle of the official gentry, are extremely resistant to the new policy. It is conceivable that tomorrow the dynasty will be on top, how will those ministers speak radically?

After looking around, he found that all the people were moving with a mocking look, and Meng Qi felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart: "That's it, what do you do with them, everyone is here to be an official, who is higher than whom?" Thinking like this, Meng Qi sat down dejectedly, poured a glass of wine, and disrespected everyone, and drank it all.

Seeing that it was cold, Liu Qi stood up and said loudly: "The new policy of the saint is good. But the saint is still young, and it is inevitable that he will not think about it. Perhaps there are traitors in the court and the sage to decide, and as a Confucian disciple, it is our duty to help the sage. Why don't you take advantage of the routine to beat the drums, play the Ming Sheng, and abolish the new policy? ”

Chen Shangfa understood why Liu Qi said this, as soon as the ten-grade official system was introduced, it was equivalent to explaining that except for the champion, Bangyan, Tanhua and B, these nine people, the rest are all ten-grade officials, and they are treated equally. That is to say, most people still have to go through grassroots training before they can be gradually promoted. As for the shade of the door and the road to Nali, it is even more blocked. As a child of an official family, Liu Qi has the most hope that he will be able to become an official without passing the imperial examination. Now that he has no way to move forward, he is the most anxious person.

Chen Shangfa also has such thoughts, his family background is good, and this elegant gathering is also the place where he spent his wallet and invited all the people of Pingshan Academy to eat and drink. Originally, if there was anything to do, and the court needed to donate, he could have taken out thousands of dollars to buy a petty official from Jiupin. And with some connections, maybe you can mix up a county order. Speaking of which, he and Liu Qi are actually the same kind of people.

As soon as the road of door shade and Nali is closed, the road to being an official, which was originally narrow, has been completely cut off, can Chen Shangfa not be in a hurry! After listening to Liu Qi's words, he immediately came out to support: "Brother Liu's words are extremely true, we are the people of Dashun, and the saint was bewitched by the traitorous ministers, and he insisted on implementing the new policy, and there are many worries. Although we have not gained half an inch of fame, but the scholars should be sensible, and the saint is deceived by traitors, how can we stand idly by? Brother Liu's proposal is my Chen Pingzhang's idea, what do you think? ”

Chen Shangfa glanced at all the moves, and missed Meng Qi. Meng Qi also knew that his own people were light-hearted and couldn't stop it, so he didn't speak. These people are all raccoon dogs, how to persuade them? Everyone is a child of Confucianism, and the golden mean is clear in their hearts. The gentlemen are harmonious and different, and Meng Qi doesn't want to be this villain and offend them in vain. So cup after cup, he drank the stuffy wine.

This wine is not cheap, even the worst rice wine, and it costs 70 yuan a pot. Although Chen Shangfa's family has a lot of money, he also spent hundreds of dollars to organize this elegant gathering, and he was so distressed. A few hundred yuan is enough to eat and live in Chang'an City for a whole year.

Seeing that a pot of wine was drunk, although it was all wrapped up, and if he didn't drink it in vain, he didn't drink it, but Chen Shangfa's heart was still dripping blood: "This is money......

Fortunately, there is always a reward for spending money, and someone finally chimed in: "Being an official like this is not interesting even if you are a jinshi." Pingzhang, I am willing to go with me! ”

"Yes, yes, those lowly jobs, it would be too insulting for me to wait for the scholars to do them. The Holy One must have been deceived by a traitor before he insisted on going his own way. Pingzhang, I am also willing to go with you! ”

"Yes, the wisdom of the saint is not under Wenzong, if there is no traitor to bewitch him, how can he suddenly force the new policy? We will definitely admonish the saints, take the side of the king, and return the situation to calm the situation, and the four seas are stable! ”

……

Looking at the angry crowd, Meng Qi actually had a delusion, are these people really for Dashun? But reason told him it wasn't. They are in their own interest, they are not the same as themselves. Most of them are rich people, and if they are Nali, they can also donate an official to do it. I have no other way but to take the imperial examination. After more than half a sentence, Meng Qi suddenly got up and said, "You sit slowly, the source is too strong to drink, so you will leave first!" After that, he gave a salute to Chen Shangfa, which was regarded as thanking him for his hospitality. (To be continued.) )
