After Fang Yun finished speaking, there was silence in the carriage again.

Fang Yun's current status was too high, so high that even the eldest grandson of the Kong Saint family had to take the initiative to greet Fang Yun when he saw him, not to mention the rest of his peers.

These Jinshi all wanted to make friends with Fang Yun, but none of them were from Jiangzhou, they were just lifting people before, and they had no intersection with Fang Yun. The light on Fang Yun's body was too bright, and it was not easy for them to speak indiscriminately.

Gao Yong was older, and found the embarrassment at the scene, and said with a smile: "Brother Fang, I see that you and others are new to each other, why don't I introduce you one by one, get acquainted with each other, don't wait until the spring hunt to get acquainted." ”

Before Fang Yun was sainted many times, he had already had the ability to never forget, not to mention the top ten jinshi, even the quota of three hundred jinshi had been remembered in his mind, and the other nine people were all outstanding people from all over the world, and they had all studied in the school palace, Fang Yun could remember about them as soon as he saw the name, and he knew about these people.

However, Fang Yun did not stop Gao Yong, but smiled: "You are all outstanding people in the Academy Palace and pillars of Jingguo, I have heard of them, but I am not very familiar with them, please help me introduce them one by one." ”

Gao Yong heard Fang Yun call Brother Gao, and his heart was even happier, "Brother" has nothing to do with age among scholars, as long as they have the same rank, they can call each other, which is an honorific title, but they must strictly abide by the seniority between relatives.

Gao Yong pointed to his side and said with a smile: "This is Fan Chenghao, the third Fan Chenghao, who was born in a famous family in the capital and married the granddaughter of the head of the famous Song family. Brother Fan's poems and articles are above me, and he once shook Jinghua with a song in Mingzhou. ”

"Brother Fan. Fang Yun smiled and arched his hand.

Fan Chenghao hurriedly returned the salute, and then smiled helplessly: "Senior brother misunderstood me, Fang Zhenguo's premise poems are tantamount to an axe in the class, don't say it." ”

"This is a bad statement, if I had to compare with Brother Fang, I would have been killed by a headfirst and would not live! This is ......" Gao Yong continued to introduce the others.

Fang Yun met one by one. I had no choice but to find that among these people were people from semi-holy families, and there were sons of wealthy families, but they were the only ones who did not come from a poor family.

Fang Yun sighed in his heart, the imperial examination system and the examination system of later generations are already relatively fair, but the educational resources obtained by high-ranking families are dozens or hundreds of times that of ordinary people, which is difficult to change. If there is no imperial examination, whether it is the inspection system or the nine-rank Zhongzheng system, it will be even more difficult for the children of the poor family to get ahead.

At the beginning of the ten countries, there was a guarantee system, that is, the wealthy families guaranteed outstanding talents in a certain aspect and gave additional admission places. This kind of system itself is not wrong, but after all, each family has selfish intentions, only to protect those close to them, and in the end, the saints found that the signs were wrong, once the guarantee system develops, it will block most of the promotion channels of the children of the poor family, and decisively stop it.

Later, some people said that fortunately, the human race had a demon crisis, and the saints did not dare to cut off the promotion path of the children of the poor family. If there were no external worries, this guarantee system would have been popular a long time ago. In the end, a very small number of outstanding children from poor families and a large number of children from the scholar clan will become Jinshi.

Now there is no guarantee system, and it is guaranteed that at least half of the jinshi are from the poor family.

The imperial examination is not a perfect system, but it is the fairest.

After the introduction, everyone became acquainted. First, I talked about the exam questions of this meeting, and then focused on today's court meeting.

"According to the usual practice, the court will first commend our Jinshi, and then the Ministry of Officials will announce the list of Jinshi for the palace examination. And read out which county is in charge of the agency, so that I can do my homework and not be smeared before I take office. I am afraid that the council of the Holy House has ended. Chen Sheng must have issued a holy edict, and then he will discuss the strategy against the barbarians, except for Fang Zhenguo, we can only listen outside the door. "Gao Yongdao.

Shi Chongzhi, who was the seventh in the exam, said in a low voice: "Chen Sheng has not issued a holy edict, and the head of the family has passed down the word, probably saying that Chen Sheng is trying his best to heal his wounds, and the affairs of the military state are decided by the imperial court, and he only prevents the demon saint from killing the wolf." ”

Shi Chongzhi is the son-in-law of the Chen Shengshi family.

Fang Yun looked at the other two Jinshi who were related to the family, and they all nodded slightly.

Gao Yong reacted very quickly and said: "Chen Sheng has always been high-spirited and rarely interferes in military politics, and it is normal not to show up now, and in the end, he will inevitably turn the tide." ”

"Even if Chen Sheng can intercept the wolf slaughter, what about the hundreds of millions of grass barbarians?"

"I can only pin my hope on the other nine countries. ”

"It's a pity that the royal families of the ten countries were opposed, and there was an agreement that those who lost with the barbarians should be returned to neighboring countries. Otherwise, under the order of the Eastern Sage, the remaining nine countries will definitely do their best to help. ”

Shi Chongzhi said softly: "So it will be very exciting in the court today." ”

Fang Yun's heart moved, and he vaguely guessed a possibility.

"What is Brother Shi's opinion?" asked another jinshi.

Shi Chongzhi shook his head and stopped talking.

Fang Yun took a closer look at Shi Chongzhi again, he was worthy of being valued by the Chen Shengshi family, and he didn't seem to say what he said, but in fact, he reminded the Jinshi present to be careful, which was regarded as the friendship of the Jinshi in the same year, but he didn't say anything about the specific content, he was tight-lipped, and he didn't say a word about what he shouldn't say.

A Jinshi suddenly laughed and said, "Brother Shi only said half a sentence, it really shouldn't be." ”

Fang Yun glanced at it, there were a total of three jinshi who didn't like Shi Chongzhi's words, while the expressions of the rest of the jinshi didn't change at all.

Fang Yun secretly praised in his heart, although most of the Jinshi in the examination were studying hard, and there were indeed people who did not understand the world, but most of them had better minds. Even if those who don't understand the world have more contact with the outside world in the future, they will change in a short time, unless they really don't like to interact with people.

Acknowledging and learning from the strengths of others is the best ladder for progress and growth, while denying it is the opposite.

Fang Yun found that he seemed to be thinking a little too much, and then realized that these details seemed insignificant, but they proved that he was growing and that he had not wasted those talents.

Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief, it was more difficult to recognize oneself than it was to pursue the Holy Path.

Gao Yong coughed lightly and said, "We are still only Jinshi, and such military and political matters must be taken seriously." ”

The rest of the jinshi restrained their dissatisfaction, and even if they didn't know exactly what was wrong, their minds instinctively prevented themselves from going on.

"You're almost at the palace, right?" Fang Yun asked.

"It should be soon. ”

After a while, the carriage stopped.

Fang Yun got out of the carriage and looked forward.

A red wall stands in front of you.

There is a gate in the east, west, south and north of the palace, but when the hundred officials come to visit, they can only go through the south gate, and the south gate is the main gate of the palace.

There are two side doors next to the main entrance, also called the folding door.

The carriage was parked outside the moat of the Imperial Palace, and there were three bridges in front of Fang Yun, and the bridge in front of it led to the Zuo Ye Gate.

Originally, the rule was that civil officials should go to the left, and military attachés should go to the right, but because of the large number of civil officials, all countries changed to civilian officials to take the left door, while military officers and officials of the Academy of Letters took the right door.

The car is parked in front of the moat gate, and it is up to the jinshi to choose it himself.

In front of the two gates, there stood Manchu officials.

The early court on the fourth day of December was a big court meeting, and yesterday the cabinet had ordered officials from all over the country to come to the court to discuss the strategy against the barbarians, and the top officials of Jingguo gathered here.

These people are trying their best to restrain their own strength, but there are too many people around, Jinshi, Hanlin, scholars, and Confucians, etc., and there are countless talents, and the vitality of heaven and earth in the sky is gently rolling, and strong winds are constantly blowing in all directions.

The wind is howling, and the horses are restless. (To be continued......)
