In the meeting hall of the county king's mansion in the afternoon of the next day, there were six people sitting opposite the seats on the east and west sides, the oldest of these people was fifty or sixty years old, and the youngest was in his thirties, Shi Zhaoxi led the king to walk in from outside, these people got up and greeted: "Mr. Shi ......" Shi Zhaoxi nodded slightly: "You are all the shogunate advisers of the county king's mansion, but you can say that they are all talented people who are full of economic wealth, today I brought a ......" He said as he moved his body to the side, and let the king behind him out:" This prince next to the king, who used to be the third rank of the court, now came from the capital to defect to the king of the county, you have to greet the prince well, if you neglect it, I'm afraid everyone's seats will be moved. ”

Everyone here already knows the reason why the king of the county recruited everyone today, and these people have heard of the name next to the king, but suddenly a stranger suddenly pressed on his head, and he was a little unconvinced, and saw Shi Zhaoxi turn sideways and let out a young man: this person looks only about twenty years old, wearing a square scarf, wearing a white robe embroidered with green lines, a silver belt embroidered with green patterns around his waist, holding a folding fan in his hand, and arching his hand towards everyone with a smile, and a whisper suddenly came from the hall: "This is next to the king." "It's such a young life." "It's long, but the eyebrows are clear, the eyes are beautiful, and the appearance is dignified." "I'm afraid it's empty."

Shi Zhaoxi coughed twice, what kind of person is this, it was a mess before he tried it, everyone heard his cough and quieted down, Shi Zhaoxi said to everyone in a weird way: "Gentlemen, don't underestimate Wang Gongzi, last night, Wang Gongzi went to the academy to review again, and this is fully prepared." ”

Everyone listened, "coaxed" laughed, this is inevitably too big, a night's work, even a glance and ten lines can not review a few books, sitting in the middle of the east seat of a strategist laughed the loudest, while laughing and pointed to the king: "This prince is really hard-working, I heard that Wang Gongzi read "The Legend of Wushuang" and "The Legend of the Bearded Guest" last night, to I don't know, Wang Gongzi came to the county palace to be a strategist, or to ask for marriage. Everyone laughed at this sentence, and Shi Zhaoxi also covered his mouth and laughed,

Wang also laughed, and he laughed louder, Shi Zhaoxi asked rhetorically: "Hehe, Wang Gongzi also thinks it's funny." ”

"No, no, I'm so happy to see everyone laughing, I'm also happy, everyone's hello is really good, hahaha"

This stupid boy, I really don't know how he does a third-grade squire, several strategists shook their heads, Shi Zhaoxi pointed to the seat at the end and said to the king: "That's it, then please sit down first." ”

"Sit here." Wang pointed to the chair, "Otherwise, Wang Gongzi sits with me, if you sit with me, I can also have the leisure to read the wild history stories and review the "Taiping Guangji" The person who spoke was still the same person just now, his words caused a burst of laughter, and the king hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't worry, don't worry, this benevolent brother, you sit for the time being, and when you turn around and move your seat, move it again." ”

Good boy, kill a boatload of people with a rod, don't you arouse the anger of the crowd like this, Shi Zhaoxi looked at the faces of everyone, all kinds of disdain and contempt, and didn't take the king in his eyes, and just as he was smiling, he heard the guard outside the door shouting: "The king of the county has arrived." Zhao Zongxun, the king of the county, strode into the conference hall: "Haha, gentlemen, please take a seat, I just left far away, and I heard laughter here, and it seems that everyone is chatting very speculatively." ”

Shi Zhaoxi hurriedly said: "I just introduced Wang Gongzi to all gentlemen, and the competition has not yet started, so I am waiting for you to come." ”

"This king is already here, so let's start, what are you waiting for, who will come first." The king of the county looked a little impatient, he looked at the six people sitting in the seats before the exam on both sides, and one of the strategists in the last seat on the west side said: "Prince Wang, the gentlemen here have followed the king of the county for many years, and they are ashamed to be inferior to them in their later years, even so, they are also from Jinshi, but I heard that you have not taken the merit test so far, and this matter is serious." Wang Bei nodded: "Well, it's true." The people present laughed dumbly, and the king of the county couldn't help frowning slightly,

The man shook his head and said, "Wang Gongzi claims to have read all the books in the world, but he doesn't even have a fame, how did he read this book?" There was a slight sarcasm in his words, if it weren't for the king of the county sitting on it, it is estimated that these people would still laugh again, but the king said unhurriedly: "My book is self-taught, self-taught, reading is to know the world, books are for yourself, and applying what you have learned is the king's way, I am going to Taizu Zeng Yun 'The prime minister needs to use a scholar', Taizu didn't say that the prime minister needs to use a jinshi, isn't Taizu's words right." ”

There seems to be some truth in Wang Gongzi's words...... However, all prime ministers are Jinshi. "Yes." The man who asked the king scratched his head first,

Wang said with a smile: "The scientific examination system began with Emperor Wen of Sui, but it was his son Yang Guang of Sui Yang who formed the system. Zhou Dynasty Jiang Shang, Guan Zhong, Su Qin; Lü Buwei of the Qin Dynasty, Li Si; Xiao He of the Han Dynasty and Zhuge Liang of Shu State, which of these people is a Jinshi, this is obviously a later misinterpretation of Taizu's legacy, and he was also Taizu's strategist shogunate, Prime Minister Zhao Pu assisted Taizu to establish a foundation, Zhao Pu is a Jinshi,. ”

"This ......" not only hesitated to ask, but all the strategists present also looked at each other, Zhao Pu is it, he is really not a Jinshi, but no one dares to say it, if he says it, it means that the first round of Wang will win, don't you say, I said, Wang Bei straightened his waist, which was completely different from the appearance of giggling with everyone just now, and said with a serious face: "Gentlemen, as the strategists of the county king, they can't be like Prime Minister Zhao Pu, who has made contributions to Taizu, and what kind of background is used to talk about the etiquette and scientific examination system, Prime Minister Zhao Pu has been the prime minister three times, although he is not a jinshi." , but half of the Analects go all over the world, who dares to say that Zhao Pu is not a reader. ”

"Okay." The king of the county took the lead in cheering, the king's words can be said in his heart, he is thinking about the yellow robe, of course, he hopes that there is someone who can be like Zhao Pu, to assist himself in the great cause, he shouted that others dare not shout, and the others had to hang their heads helplessly and said: "Good, good." ”

The man who had just made fun of the king in the second seat on the east side stood up and walked to the middle of the council room: "Lord, even if this prince compares himself to Zhao Pu, I will use the Analects to test him." The king nodded,

Wang said in his heart: Good boy, you laughed at me just now, and now you are still testing me, but I heard the man say in a mocking manner: "Wang Gongzi, I am also familiar with the "Analects", this book was completed in the early Warring States period, with a total of 20 chapters and 492 chapters, of which about 444 chapters are recorded in the words of Confucius and his disciples and people in time, and 48 chapters are recorded in the words of Confucius disciples talking about each other. He paused, looked around at the audience, and his colleagues and shogunates nodded approvingly, he was proud in his heart, and then said: "Since Gongzi compares himself to Zhao Pu, then let's talk about governing the country: Zi said: Qi changes, as for Lu; Lu Yichang, as for the Tao, how does the son understand its meaning. ”

"Alas, this question is too simple, obviously Confucius is not in agreement with the strategy of governing the two countries of Qi and Lu, governing the country to achieve "poor and no flattery, rich and not arrogant", must be both good and evil, civil and military, just like the king of the county can make good use of the ministers, and can attach importance to the military generals, this is the fundamental, I have been in Shaozhou these days, see the military positions of the states of Guangnan have arrived, you can know that the king of the county and the talent of civil and military, this gentleman, but for me tailor-made examination questions, thank you very much,. ”

The questioner looked at the king's answer, and his expression was smiling, and he sulked and hated and said, "No thanks. As soon as he turned around and sat back in his seat and stopped talking, the king of the county was overjoyed by what the king said, and he looked at an old man sitting in the first seat: "Mr. Jiang, I see that you haven't spoken for a long time, why don't you also test this kid, haha." The king of the county said this kid, but in a very happy tone,

That Mr. Jiang is the first shogunate of the current county palace, and he smiled slightly: "Wang Gongzi is indeed knowledgeable, no wonder he will watch "The Bearded Guest" to relieve his boredom...... The prince is in the capital, and he must have even read the books of the Imperial Academy, I want to ask the prince to recommend a book that is not available in the Royal Academy, of course, the wild history is forgotten, the old man is only afraid of running out of time. ”

This topic is difficult enough, not only to know the books of the Royal Academy, but also to know that the Imperial Academy has a royal mansion, but maybe others find it difficult, but Wang Bei doesn't think it, he laughed and said: "During the first emperor's reign, Emperor Renzong ordered the prime minister to compile the "General Essentials of the Martial Arts", the first episode introduces ancient and modern war examples, military systems, military organizations, selection of generals, and formations; The latter episode introduces yin and yang divination, analyzes and evaluates the battle examples and the gains and losses of the use of troops in the past dynasties, and this book has been read. Mr. Jiang and everyone present gasped when they heard this, this kid has read a lot of books, not only a lot but also he has read the new compilation of the royal family, and the king knows that this book has not yet been engraved, and the county king Zhao Zongchu hurriedly said: "Oh, this book is a good book, isn't there one in our county palace academy." ”

Wang smiled next to him: "It's better for the king of the county to find this engraved book, it's worth collecting." ”

The king nodded: "Well, the recommendation of the king is good, but this is not a temporary matter, just now Mr. Jiang's question, I think you have to recommend another one, just recommend the palace academy, Mr. Jiang has not seen it." He said and looked at Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang nodded with a smile, he was confident that the first shogunate of the county king's mansion was not for nothing,

Wang Bi frowned and thought for a while: "I recommend this one." He took out the copy of "The Biography of the Bearded Guest" from his arms, and personally stepped forward and handed it to Mr. Jiang: "Look at this ......."

"This, this wild history novel, you let Mr. Jiang read it." The king's eyes widened,

"Lord Wang, when the bearded guest saw that Li Shimin was extraordinary, he poured his family wealth into supporting Li Jing, so that he could assist Li Shimin in achieving meritorious deeds, this book has a mystery, don't think that I want to see the Red Whisk Woman,."

Everyone was stunned by what the king said, a wild history novel, will there be any mystery, this nonsense next to the king is too outrageous, seeing that everyone will be suspicious, the king said: "The king of the county, how much money do you have a year, Li Shimin can achieve great things, the key is that with the funding of the bearded guest, it is real money, and the president of the United States must have the support of the consortium, not to mention the prince." ”

Oh, Wang next to the word, this is to the point, how can you do it without money if you want to achieve a great cause? Besides, who doesn't know Jinxiang Mansion, Meyer Mansion, Jinxiu Building, this kid next to the king is a god of wealth, the county king immediately ordered: "Gentlemen, please stand up, the first one to be given to Mr. Wang~" The strategists of the shogunate reluctantly stood up, moved one in turn and sat down, the county king pointed to the first one and laughed: "Mr. Wang, please take a seat, what you said is so good, but, where is the United States, what do the people of that country always stab." ”

"Haha, the president of the United States is the emperor of the United States, and the consortium is the one who pays him behind his back, is it possible that the king of the county is also in a hurry to use the money." Wang asked knowingly, and looked at Zhao Zongchu with a smile,
