In the world of Yang God, martial arts and Taoism coexist in the world.

The way of martial arts is to strengthen the body and transcend the way of life and death.

Believe that the world is like a sea of suffering, and the body is like a raft across the sea, if the body is strong, it can carry people to the other side of the sea of suffering.

The foundation of martial arts practice is divided into seven realms: martial arts, martial disciples, samurai, martial artists, innate martial artists, great grandmasters, and martial saints.

They correspond to meat training, tendon training, membrane training, bone training, visceral training, marrow training, and blood exchange.

In order to maximize the tempering of the physical body to the limit.

After opening up the acupoints around the body, you can have infinite power in your gestures, and you are an immortal.

And the ultimate purpose of the cultivation of human immortals is to open up the 129,600 orifices around the body, and the cultivation above the human immortals in this world is divided into: martial arts true intent, fist intent essence, flesh and blood derivation, kaleidoscopic, and crushing vacuum.

Taoist practice believes that the world is like a bitter sea, and the human body is like a raft across the sea, but the bitter sea is boundless, and the raft will eventually decay, and only if the soul is strong, you can abandon the raft and swim to the other side of the bitter sea with your own strength.

The realm of Taoism is divided into the realms of concentration, out-of-body, night travel, day travel, exorcism, manifestation, possession, and ghosts.

After that, he crossed the Nine Thunder Tribulations and achieved the pure yang of the original god, which was the god of yang.

And then the so-called other side, Chen Hengzhi is a little incomprehensible, with the soul of the Yang God, with the body above the peak of human immortals, but also with the so-called "great wish"? in order to break through in one fell swoop.

What did he not understand? If the great wish cannot be fulfilled, there will be eternal life and eternal troubles in this world, which cannot be transcended.

What is the root of practice? Is it yourself? It's itself.

If you cultivate to the end, you have to carry it for the rest of your life? Don't say that the Yang God World, even if it is among the heavens and all worlds? There is no great power that can carry all beings in the world to transcend together!

This? can make Chen Hengzhi understand that there is a problem with the martial arts of this world!

Martial cultivation is the yang god, and dao cultivation is the immortal, which is the ultimate power that the yang god world can hold.

Want to get out of the world? Do you need to get to the other side? That is, the fourth-order immortal realm in Chen Hengzhi's cultivation system.

The other side = Yang God (Immortal) + Crush the vacuum + complete the great wish.

Something is wrong!

Boredom, Chen Hengzhi thought about the cultivation of the Yang God World in his mind, took out the pastries prepared in the morning, brewed a pot of tea, and ate leisurely.

How does his laid-back look compare to the scratching of the heads and ears of the rest? is too unusual, attracting the attention of many examiners.

Chen Hengzhi completely ignored those glances that glanced over from time to time? Constantly thinking about the problem of cultivation in your mind, taking a sip of tea from time to time on the surface? It seems that he is closing his eyes and recuperating.

After a long time, he slowly came back to his senses.

Undoubtedly? Is this an alternative world of spiritualism? Interfering with reality with will? In the blink of an eye, there is a supernatural power displayed.

The Heavenly Dao of this world is very interesting, you monks practice, absorb the aura of heaven and earth, use the resources of the world, eat mine, take mine, use mine, it doesn't matter, anyway, sooner or later you will die one day, and sooner or later you will return it.

What the?

Do you want to leave after eating? Want detachment? Want to take it away?

I'm sorry, I returned everything that took me, ate me, and used mine.

Therefore, this is the reason why in the world of the Yang God, when the monk is beyond the other side, he makes a great wish.

If you don't pay it back after you owe it to the world, do you still want to be detached?

Wake up, kid!

Do you think world consciousness eats dry food?

Tell you, don't even think about it!

There is a catastrophe in this world, 129,600 years is a reincarnation, the catastrophe is coming, and no one below the yang god can escape from the other side, only ashes and ashes.

Therefore, those old yin people in the Yuan works, such as Yuan, Pan, Creation Daoist, Immortal Emperor, etc., perceived in advance that Yi Dao would appear in the future, so the dormant hibernation, the buried chess pieces!

All the geniuses in the entire Yang God World are working hard to transcend the other side!

The world is divided into 129,600 years, and each era is reincarnated, what is the significance of this for the world itself?

Why did he do that?

After thinking about it, Chen Hengzhi felt that he could treat the whole world as a life!

As long as it is life, it is eager to grow, to evolve, just like human beings, to practice immortality, and the same is true of the world.

The world nourishes the wisdom of the living beings in its body, replenishes its own deficiencies, provides for its own growth, and then reaps it on time!

It's like a farmer planting a crop, he planted a batch of seeds, and when the crops were ripe, he reaped them, and after harvesting a stubble, he turned over the soil and leveled it, and planted another stubble.

The path of cultivation is divided into martial cultivation of the physical body and Taoist cultivation of the divine soul, but no matter which line of cultivation it is, it is quite resource-consuming.

It seems normal and not strange to the monk, but to the world, the monk is a cancer.

All things are born to support people, and people have nothing to repay the sky.

It is not uncommon for monks to use all the resources of the world, but never think of giving back to the world, and this kind of behavior that is not good for the world is regarded as a cancer by the world.

It's just that the Heavenly Dao of the Yang God World is more chicken thieves, a little more ruthless, harvested once every 129,600 years, more ruthless than the boss of a certain Lu, and the knife is sharpened more sharply, cutting leeks and cutting thieves!

Chen Hengzhi, who was bored, was lying on the exam table, thinking about these messes in his mind, at this time, the protagonist Hong Yi was already disappointed in Hongfu, and the contradictions between the two sides had reached the peak of the outbreak.

A few years ago, Hong Yi obtained the secret of the Great Chan Temple, "The Maitreya Sutra of the Past", in the fox's nest in the West Mountain, which can be described as good luck.

As long as the imperial examination is over and he has gained fame, Hong Yi is ready to move out of Hongfu and work alone!

Since then, Hong Yi carp turned into a dragon, soared into the sky, and in just a few years, he achieved the yang god, and reached the other side, transcending the limitations of the world.

It's simply the son of the era, and no one else can fly as fast as him on a rocket.

I don't know how long it took, Chen Hengzhi had finished the snacks he brought from home, and he had made three pots of tea, and he felt that time had never passed so slowly as today.

"Ah!!h

"Why can't I think of it, how to answer, how to answer."

There was a commotion outside, waking up Chen Hengzhi, who was bored, he raised his head from the table, and saw several soldiers running briskly in front of him, and after a while, the candidate who was shouting was gagged with rags and dragged out directly.

Passing by in front of Chen Hengzhi's examination room, he clearly saw that the candidate looked to be in his forties, with some gray hair on his sideburns on both sides, and was dragged on the stone floor by several soldiers, still struggling, whimpering as if he wanted to shout something.

Chen Hengzhi found that the man's eyes were cloudy, and a dead gray color floated to his face.

Chen Hengzhi shook his head and sighed secretly.

Another person who was driven crazy by the imperial examination.

Throughout the ages, there have been too many such things, even in previous lives, there are still countless college entrance examination students who have collapsed or even committed suicide under huge pressure.

"The time has come, all candidates will stop writing, and if there is any re-answer, they will be punished according to cheating."

I don't know how long it took, but finally the gong sounded to end the exam, and at the same time a small official shouted loudly.

Chen Hengzhi's expression perked up and he sat up straight, and then he realized that it was dark, and the examiner's office had already turned on the lamp, but it turned out that it was already unitary time, and the exam was over, so he was ready to leave the examination room.

At this time, he suddenly heard someone suddenly shouting: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, I still have a question, I have already made a draft, just copy it, I will definitely be able to pass the exam this year." ”

"Hurry up and stop writing." An examiner scolded.

"Wait a minute, just give me another half an hour." The candidate pleaded.

"Someone, pull him out." The examiner refused without hesitation.

The man cried and begged: "No, I will win this year, please give me a chance." ”

The voice faded away, apparently being dragged away.

"Alas!"

Chen Hengzhi sighed, carried the box, walked out of the number room, and went to the Gongyuan Courtyard.

When I came outside, I found that it was already dark, and at this time, there was no one else on the street, except for the relatives and servants of the candidates who were taking the exam, who were anxiously waiting with torches.

A biting cold wind blew, causing people to shrink their necks and shiver.

Those who had been holding back for a day did not start to enter the arena solemnly, but flocked out in a swarm, some of them were arrogant, some were depressed, and some didn't care at all.

After the talents behind him walked out of the gate of the examination room, they went straight to their close people.

Chen Hengzhi carried the box and walked alone in the direction of home.

Pacing slowly, Chen Hengzhi walked through a street in Gongyuan, and after turning the corner, he suddenly found that there was a world of difference between the walls.

On the side of the Gongyuan, the soldiers held hands and fought with a murderous atmosphere, and others dared to approach, and they looked deserted.

Outside, the lights are bright, the crowds are surging, and the traffic is busy, it looks very lively, if it weren't for the wrong clothes and hairstyles, Chen Hengzhi almost thought that he was a modern metropolis when he returned to the earth.

On the street that can not be seen at a glance, pedestrians are weaving, and there are night market stalls on both sides of the flow of people, selling sugar gourds, selling caramel candy, storytelling, fortune telling, selling strong pills, playing monkey shows, setting up stalls to sell antique calligraphy and paintings, dazzling, wonderful.

Inside and outside the walls are literally two worlds.

Chen Hengzhi slowly squeezed through the crowd, crossed two streets, and returned to the slum area southeast of Jingshi City, his home in this life.

On the other side, Hong Yi, who had just come out of the Gongyuan, had a somewhat ugly face, and he had a realization in his heart that he had failed the imperial examination this time.

Halfway through the exam, he suddenly felt restless, which disturbed his thoughts, his heart was confused, and he couldn't calm down, and the subsequent exams were obviously a little unsatisfactory.

On the way home, Hong Yi was still thinking about where he had offended the Taoist masters, and he had caused his whim to take the exam, delaying the most important things in his life, such as the imperial examination.

After thinking for a long time, Hong Yi still didn't think of who he had offended, only the eldest lady of the Hong Mansion, Zhao, had always looked at him unpleasantly, it may be that the slut invited the crooked sect to cast a spell, ruined his own big things, and also let his idea of earning a reputation for his mother come to naught.

Chen Hengzhi, who had already returned home, didn't know that when he was in the examination room, he just glanced at Hong Yi, but Hong Yi was in a trance, and the scientific examination failed, causing a slight change in the fate of the protagonist of the world.

But I don't know if it's good or bad!

……………………

On the other side, in the courtyard of tribute.

In the main examination room, there were several examiners wearing official uniforms and black gauze hats, one of them was sitting in the hall, his face was serious, he looked about forty years old, it was Li Shenguang, the chief examiner of the township examination, who was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites of the Second Rank of the Dynasty.

Although this is just a township test for people in Xiucai, and it is not a meeting test for people to be raised among Jinshi, but because it is a scientific examination within the scope of Yujing City, it is naturally not trivial, and the imperial court attaches great importance to scientific examinations.

Moreover, the show talent to the level of lifting people is related to the privilege of tax exemption of the gentry, so Emperor Yang Qian sent a member of the imperial court as the chief examiner of this scientific examination.

At this time, the imperial examination has ended, but the examiners are nervously correcting the examination papers overnight.

Of course, Li Shenguang, as the chief examiner, doesn't need to do it himself, he just needs to sit on the side and drink tea leisurely and wait for the results to come out.

"Huh? Do the examiners have any papers to recommend? ”

After three rounds of tea, Li Shenguang stroked his long beard and asked the deputy examiners sitting on the left and right.

This is because the candidates' test papers are preliminarily selected by the examiners, and those who are not neat, scriptural, and incorrect in the scriptures and ink meanings are eliminated, and then the winners are presented to the examiners for grading.

It is also said that it is like the correction of test papers in modern society, fill-in-the-blank questions, multiple-choice questions, and true/false questions, and it is naturally clear whether they are correct or not, and only the later essay questions have a certain subjective judgment.

Each examiner has a recommended spot and can submit their preferred paper directly to the examiner.

However, they also have to bear the corresponding risks, and if the candidate has entrainment or fraud afterwards, the recommended examiner will also be punished by joint and several liability.

Therefore, every examiner will think carefully before considering it.

At this time, the chief examiner Li Shangshu spoke, and the left and right deputy examiners immediately got up and inspected the roll rooms, asking the examiners who corrected the test papers to recommend a batch of excellent test papers in this imperial examination.

After a while, several people walked out with a pile of test papers and spread them on the table for the examiner Li Shenguang to check.

"Huh? This article talks about benevolence, righteousness and etiquette, which seems to be upright and scolds Fang Xuan, but the resolute Mu Qu is close to benevolence, and those who say big truths in their mouths are all hypocrites and the like. ”

By the light, Li Shenguang squinted his eyes and read several articles in a row, but they all shook their heads and pulled these articles aside.

The deputy examiner next to him also came over to take a look, shook his head, and threw these exam papers into the basket under the table, which was set to be the final papers.

"Huh? Good word! It's a pity, it's a pity......"

Suddenly, Li Shenguang saw an article with smart and beautiful handwriting, and immediately praised it.

But when I saw the back, I couldn't stop shaking my head.

However, because Hong Yi was influenced by Chen Hengzhi at that time, his mind was shaken, and there were some flaws in the back of the Jingyi Scroll, which had become imperfect.

Hong Yi's article is naturally the favor of the main exam, and he talks about mental learning, so it is no wonder that Li Shenguang applauded.

Moreover, Hongyi's font is to imitate the calligraphy of ancient sages, leaving a sense of lightness and comfort, but it is not the kind of font that is charming and soft, it can be described as a combination of rigidity and softness, and full of vitality.

"It's a pity ......"

When several deputy examiners heard this, they shook their heads and regretted it.

"Hurry up and see, what is this candidate's surname? Where is the left and right, report his resume. ”

Li Shenguang shook his head, put the exam paper aside, and suddenly, as if he thought of something, he raised his head and said.

"This son's name is Hong Yi, and he is the son of Lord Wuwen Hou Hong."

On the side, the deputy chief examiner, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately reported Hong Yi's resume.

"The son of Wu Wen Hou Hong Taibao?" Li Shenguang frowned.

"Lord Li, be cautious, Marquis Wu Wen has been named a prince by His Majesty yesterday, and his title will be changed in the future." An assistant examiner reminded Li Shenguang.

"The tiger father has no dogs, and he is worthy of being the son of Master Hong, but it's a pity, I can only take the test next time!" Li Shenguang shook his head and said.

Everyone shook their heads and sighed, but they didn't know whether it was a pity that Hong Yi was off the list, or that they sighed that they couldn't take the opportunity to get in touch with the Taishi Mansion.

Li Shenguang set his eyes on the test papers again and read them one by one.

"Huh! This is good! ”

Li Shenguang was shocked and looked at it carefully, this test paper is naturally Chen Hengzhi's, his scriptures and meanings are stable and not out of line, but the overall idea is to tend to the school of mind.

"Let's take a look, too!"

Li Shenguang handed the test paper to the left and right and asked them to circulate it.

After reading all the test papers, Li Shenguang took Chen Hengzhi's copy and asked everyone on the left and right: "Since there is no more winner, then this paper will be set as the first place in this township examination, do you have any different opinions?" ”

Everyone shook their heads and said they had no opinion.

At this time, suddenly there were soldiers outside who sang: "Master Hong has arrived." ”

"Hurry up and welcome, the Taishi is in charge of Wen Zai, Wu Wenhou was named the Taishi yesterday, and today's scientific examination must have been ordered by the emperor to come to inspect the examination room."

Li Shenguang hurriedly stood up, straightened his clothes, and led the deputy examiners of each room to greet him outside the door.

Sure enough, a large sedan chair was lifted to the front outside the door, and then Hong Xuanji came down in an official uniform with a solemn face.

Li Shenguang hurriedly led the deputy examiners to bow down.

Hong Xuanji is now a Taishi, ranking as the third duke, which is equivalent to the official position of the prime minister, one level older than Li Shenguang, and these people naturally want to greet him.

"Is this township test going well? Is there any entrainment fraud? ”

Hong Xuanji nodded, and asked after these people bowed down.

"There is no entrainment, and there is no fraud."

Li Shenguang replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, and then led his hand: "Master Hong, please move to the main examination room to speak." ”

After the two sides arrived in the main examination room, sat down, served tea, and after a series of polite officialdom rules, Hong Xuanji sat on the main seat, glanced at the roll on the table, and asked, "Has the first name been decided?" ”

"Yes, as soon as this matter was decided, Taishi Hong came." Li Shenguang took out Chen Hengzhi's test paper and laid it out on the table for Hong Xuanji to watch.

"Huh? Is this the first name? ”

Hong Xuanji watched for a moment, frowned and asked, he found that although this article was well written, it was a theory of the school of mind, which made Hong Xuanji of the school of science very displeased.

He frowned, and the atmosphere in the whole room suddenly became tense!

Those deputy examiners all felt an invisible pressure, and they couldn't breathe.

The whole house was silent, and the sound of coughing could not be heard.

"The font is flying and domineering, and the edge is exposed, which shows that his people are not at ease."

Hong Xuanji shook his head and vetoed: "And this article is not smooth, some places are just nonsense, not to mention being the first name, it is difficult to get the middle lift, where is this person's resume?" This person's qualification for the imperial examination will be revoked, and he will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination for eternity in the future. ”

As he spoke, Hong Xuanji picked up the scroll and threw it into the pile of the fallen scroll.

"Huh?"

When Li Shenguang saw this, his brows jumped sharply, and the blood rose to his face, and he suddenly slapped the table.

Bang!

In an instant, the pen and ink on the table shook to the ground.

Originally, the atmosphere in the room was heavy, but Li Shenguang's sudden slap scared the deputy examiners present!

A few people had weak legs and feet and almost fell to the ground!

No one expected that this Lord Shangshu would suddenly slap the table on the imperial master!

"Hong Xuanji, here I am the main examiner, you are just an inspector, although the official and I are a superior grade, but I have no right to determine the quality of the test paper!"

Li Shenguang's roar resounded throughout the room: "The disagreement between you and me is a private matter, but you shouldn't use this as an excuse to stir up the country's talent ceremony, your mind is not right, and you don't promote virtue for the country, this is a villain's behavior!" ”

"Huh?"

Hong Xuanji's hand stopped, his eyes looked coldly at the roaring Li Shenguang, and hummed: "This person's test paper is based on mental science, and he only knows how to talk about it, which is meaningless to govern the country and useless to the people. As an official of the imperial court, you roared on the spot, it was a violation of etiquette, tomorrow in the court, this master will definitely participate in your book, you step back for me now! ”

Hong Xuanji said it so coldly, and suddenly a piercing chill rose on everyone's body, they all knew that Hong Xuanji joined the army as a general back then, killing people like hemp, and never being soft on political opponents, and there were very few people in the court who could deal with him.

Hong Xuanji thought that Li Shenguang borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and the matter would be over.

Who knows, Li Shenguang didn't give an inch, and shouted loudly: "This official is now the chief examiner of the township examination ordered by the emperor, and you have no right to tell me to step down!" Refer to me or not, that's your Hong Taishi's business! If the court doesn't remove me for a day, this official will be the examiner for a day! This official will also join you tomorrow morning! You overstep your authority! Suppress good talents! You're the villain! The emperor used you, but he used the wrong person! ”

"This Taishi is instructed by the emperor to inspect the examination room, which is the Qincha, and he has full authority to handle all things."

Hong Xuanji said lightly: "Where are the left and right, pull him down, today's matter, this master will show the emperor." ”

"Yes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two people came in from outside the door and wanted to pull Li Shenguang down.

"Hong Xuanji, you dare!"

Li Shenguang's eyes widened, and he roared: "If you dare to tell me to step down, I will fight a lawsuit with you, you try it, I will go out to hit Jingyang Zhong, fight for exile for three thousand miles, and also fight a lawsuit with you, even if it is killed on the Golden Palace, I will fight with you to the end, if you have a kind, try it!" ”

"Hit Jingyang Bell?"

As soon as he heard that this Li Shenguang was going to hit Jingyang Zhong, Hong Xuanji frowned, and suddenly felt a little sitting.

The deputy examiners around heard the roar of the chief examiner and the Taishi, and they all shrank aside, this dispute can be described as a school dispute, not a simple battle for the first place, but a dispute over ideas.

Hong Xuanji is a master of science, while Li Shenguang is a scholar of the Li Shixin school, these are two completely different paths, almost opposite, and the dispute between the two is naturally normal.

After ringing, it will alarm the emperor, and no matter how big the grievances are, you can tell them, but the person who hits the bell, regardless of whether he wins or loses the lawsuit, will be exiled to three thousand miles away, which can be said to kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred.

He Hong Xuanji was only appointed as a Taishi yesterday, but today he forced a Shangshu-level examiner to hit Jingyang Zhong, which made the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu think of him?

Although Hong Xuanji has the strength of the peak level of a martial saint, can he still slap the other party to death here?

Li Shenguang is purely barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, to put it mildly, he is a stunned young man, arguing with him, and insulting his identity in vain, Hong Xuanji will naturally not be stupid enough to confront him.

And let you run rampant, and there will be a chance to clean you up in the future.

"As a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and a minister of the imperial court, for a small number of people, you have to hit Jingyang Zhong at every turn? Blood-spattered Golden Luan Palace? Are you worthy of the word "courtesy?" Today is the National Talent Ceremony, this Taishi will not argue with you, so as not to lose the demeanor of the court minister, you just wait to listen to it, and a reckless man like you is an official in the same dynasty, it is simply a shame for this Taishi. ”

Hong Xuanji's face was blue, and after putting down his words, he threw off his sleeves and walked out of the tribute courtyard.

Seeing that Hong Xuanji was leaving, the deputy examiners were still shocked, and they all shook their heads and persuaded: "Brother Shenguang, why do you want to make such a fuss about this matter?" It's just a matter of raising the top name, but let Taishi Hong decide what to do, and now you have a hard top with him like this, it can be said that it is a lot of trouble. ”

"Yes, he has the emperor's favor, we are humble and light, there is no need to fight against him for an irrelevant person, it is really not cost-effective!"

"Yes, Lord Li's move is a big mistake!"

Although they didn't dare to say anything in front of Hong Xuanji, after all, they had been officials in the same dynasty as Li Shenguang for many years, and as soon as Hong Xuanji left at this time, they all opened their mouths to persuade them.

"This official knows that there is a lot of misfortune, but this is a national canon, and it must be fair and honest, besides, he is a famous minister of science, but Chen Hengzhi's knowledge is different from his philosophy, he naturally looks down on it, this is obviously to suppress dissidents, although it is only a small quota, but he can't be allowed to do anything wrong."

Li Shenguang said proudly: "Don't be afraid, just read the file, all the consequences will be borne by the official, the emperor and I can give direct advice, and I am not afraid of his master." ”

"What about Chen Hengzhi's scroll?" An assistant examiner hesitated.

"It's still set as the first place, after the exam is over, let's set the ranking and put it on the list, the township test at the foot of the Yujing Tianzi is in the spotlight, but it's different from the local, the action is sharp, don't drag the mud and water." Li Shenguang waved his hand and decided.

……………………

Wuwenhou Mansion is in the southeast of Yujing City, covers an area of 100 acres, the terrain is open, a pair of red lacquer stone carved unicorns with three people high at the gate, vermilion gate, shining copper nails, copper rings, bright clothes at the door, full of energy, sharp eyes of the family and so on, can show the status of Wuwenhou.

Wuwen Marquis Hong Xuanji was a prominent figure in the Daqian Dynasty, this person not only had a grand title, but also a very popular minister, an official residence cabinet scholar, and the crown prince.

He was both civil and military, and when he was young, he could shoot a nine-stone strong bow and shoot continuously, and ride a big horse to kill hundreds of enemy soldiers.

At the age of twenty-two, after making great achievements, he gave up martial arts and literature, the title of the gold list, and the high school flower.

Awarded official positions and participated in court politics, he once received the highest praise from the four emperors of the Daqian Dynasty for being able to govern the army and peace for the people.

Late at night, in the study.

Hong Xuanji leaned on the Taishi's chair and looked into the distance in a daze.

At this time, a woman with a slender figure, hair and sideburns, eyebrows, and a water-green Luo shirt pushed open the door of the study and walked in gently.

She put down the tray in her hand, picked up a porcelain bowl from it, and said softly: "Master, the concubine has stewed ginseng soup for you, you can drink it while it's hot!" ”

"Fei'er, you have a heart!"

Hong Xuanji's mood did not change much.

"Master, the concubine hasn't congratulated you yet, yesterday I was named a prince by the emperor, and I went one step further, congratulations to the master on his great career!"

She put down the porcelain bowl in her hand, came behind Hong Xuan's fuselage, gently squeezed his shoulder, and said softly.

This woman is Hong Xuanji's concubine, Zhao Fei'er, the sect leader of the Daluo faction.

"Huh!" Hong Xuanji's brows furrowed and he chuckled.

Zhao Fei'er asked: "The concubine looked at the old man worried, did something happen?" Can you talk to the concubine? ”

"Some small things in the DPRK are dispensable, there is no need to say it, it is plain to sweep away the interest."

Hong Xuanji shook his head slightly, and then he asked, "It's okay in the past two days in the house, there haven't been any moths!" ”

Speaking of this, he thought of the concubine who used to live in a remote courtyard in the northwest corner of Fuzhong, and recently moved to live in the osmanthus courtyard in the east, and couldn't help but ask Zhao Fei'er.

"Back to the master, it's nothing unusual!"

Zhao Fei'er thought for a while and replied, "If anything, the son born to that slut actually participated in the imperial examination today!" ”

"Huh? ...... like this"

When Hong Xuanji heard this, he frowned, and said softly: "If he wants to take the test, let him take the test, don't worry about him!" ”

"The concubine obeys!"

Li Fei'er responded, and then, her eyes rolled, and she smiled and said, "Master, it's late at night, it's time to rest!" ”

Hong Xuanji raised his eyebrows, stood up, picked up Li Fei'er by the waist, and said, "Master Ben******

……………………

Jin Yang in early spring was particularly stingy, only occasionally came out to show his face, and then hurriedly hid behind the dark clouds.

As if like a cold winter wax moon, the weather in Yujing City became cold, even if it was noon at this time, there was no temperature between heaven and earth, and there were few pedestrians on the streets.

In the small courtyard of the Chen family, Chen Hengzhi sat under the osmanthus tree, holding a book in his hand, watching carefully.

"Whew!"

A cold wind blew, causing the few pedestrians on the street to shrink their necks.

"Wisdom and will!"

Chen Hengzhi slowly flipped through the scroll, thinking in his heart.

The Yang God World is much more magical than the more than ten worlds he has experienced, and there is definitely no such thing as the Yang God World, an old man who has been studying poetry and books for many years, after understanding the truth, he jumped through the Seven Thunder Tribulations and achieved the Creator.

"In this world, the truth is the greatest! The will interferes with reality, and the will of the heart is incomparably strong! Is...... As big as the heart, as great as the power! ”

Chen Hengzhi's slightly narrowed eyes lit up slightly.

"Rustle!"

There was a sound of footsteps, followed by a loud noise of gongs and drums, and the sound of people.

Chen Hengzhi's mind gradually returned to reality, and he knew what was going on with a slight movement of his mind, and he couldn't help but smile slightly.

At this time, I only heard someone speak loudly: "Excuse me, is this Chen Hengzhi's Old Master Chen's mansion?" ”

Chen Hengzhi casually put the book in his hand on the stone table beside him, stood up, his right hand moved slightly, and there was a large string of copper coins in his sleeve pocket.

Three or two steps to the courtyard gate, "squeak" to open the door, outside the door is a crowded crowd, there are the yamen to announce the good news, there are neighbors on the street, all look at themselves.

After the door opened, one of the officials led by him immediately took two steps forward and asked a little respectfully: "Dare to ask, but Chen Hengzhi is in front of Master Chen?" ”

Chen Hengzhi nodded and responded, "It's me!" ”

"Congratulations to Master Chen! Congratulations to Mr. Chen, for winning the crown of this township trial! The official immediately rejoiced.

"Hello Master Chen!"

"Master Chen, but Wenqu Xing has descended to earth!"

"Congratulations, Master Chen!"

The people around also rushed up, gossiping and saying goodbye, and even though the officials behind lit the firecrackers that had been prepared for a long time, the "crackling" firecrackers rang out.

"Thank you!"

Chen Hengzhi clasped his hands into fists and saluted the surroundings, then took out the prepared happy money from his sleeve and threw it out.

The officials who reported the good news received the good news, and went to other places to report the good news, and the neighbors around them gradually dispersed, leaving only a place of firecracker confetti and melon peel husks at the door.

"The young master of the Chen family has been lifted?"

"That's not it, I heard those officials say, young master of the Chen family, no, it should be the master of the people, Master Chen won the first name Xie Yuan."

"Those who can lift people are all Wenqu stars in the sky, not to mention the first place, if you can win the Huiyuan in the future examination, and then win the champion in the palace examination, that is, even the three yuan, I heard that only the former prime minister Li Yan has ever had it."

"The gentry are exempt from taxes, tsk, this time, the Chen family is developed."

From time to time, you can hear the voices of neighbors talking outside, and it is not difficult to hear that they are still very curious about Chen Hengzhong's township test Xie Yuan, some envy, some jealous.

Chen Heng understood in his heart that the imperial examination occupies an important position both in the people and among the princes and princes.

Speaking of which, not only them, but Chen Hengzhi himself, was also quite surprised.

After the exam, he didn't take this matter to heart anymore, and naturally he wouldn't use his divine sense to investigate.

Chen Hengzhi didn't know, because of his test papers, when the two big officials roared on the spot, they almost fought, and he almost fell to Sun Shan in the imperial examination, of course, he wouldn't care even if he knew.

At the beginning of the exam, Chen Hengzhi had the mentality of focusing on participation, and he didn't pay too much attention to the gains and losses.

After all, he is not a weak scholar, even if he doesn't take the path of the imperial examination, he can live a good life, so naturally he doesn't value it much.

Who knows, just take the test casually, and take the township test to solve the yuan, this is really impermanence in life!

After a little pause, Chen Hengzhi was just about to close the courtyard door, but he saw that at the corner of the alley, a few sedan chairs suddenly turned out, stopped far away, and a group of young people came down.

Chen Hengzhi didn't know any of these people, but this group of young people seemed to have known Chen Hengzhi for many years, and they were full of enthusiasm and congratulated them from afar.

"Brother Chen, congratulations, congratulations on your high school Xie Yuan, won the top spot, and sent congratulatory gifts to my brother and a few people in the same year, and I hope to smile."

At the same time, the servants around these people all brought over the bags of gifts, and at the same time sent gift lists for Chen Hengzhi to see.

"Five hundred taels of silver? Thirty horses of silk? That three hundred taels of silver? Snow Paper Ten Knife ..........."

Looking at several gift lists, the gifts on them can be regarded as grand, and the total value is probably two or three thousand taels of silver.

"These are all lifters who were tested at the same time?"

Chen Heng's heart moved, and he immediately understood, although he didn't know this group of people, they were all lifted in the exam together, although they were not familiar with each other, but they were the same year.

In the officialdom, they are all objects of mutual support in the same year, and it is inevitable that they will form a party in the same year.

Even if they don't know each other, but as soon as they say that they are in the same year, they are immediately closer than their brothers, although they are all lifting people now, and they can't talk about being officials, but the matter of forming a party and making friends should start early.

"These people are all disciples of wealthy families in Yujing City, they have money but no power, and now they have fame, so they are naturally willing to spend silver, if they don't accept this gift, it seems that I am not social."

These people are all disciples of wealthy families in Yujing City, but they are not the children of princes and princes, because generally princes and princes take the road of Enyin and do not need to take exams.

After thinking about this key, Chen Hengzhi was not polite, accepted the gift, and after taking care of everything, he arched his hand: "Brother Nian received the good news so quickly?" ”

"Where, where."

One of the elders said: "The good news is passed from the last rank to the first name, and the young brother is the first name Xie Yuan, and the good news will naturally come last." ”

"I don't know if Brother Chen has time to go to the countryside with us? I inquired that there are also a few cold people in the countryside, and they should have received good news at this time, so let's go over together to congratulate them, which means that they can be regarded as support, and then bring them to meet the master. ”

"This time, our seat teacher is Master Li Shenguang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and it is also a loss that we were born well, it is a township test at the feet of the Son of Heaven, if it is a township test in other places, where will it be the turn to get a master like Lord Shangshu."

The other, a little younger, shook his fan and said slowly.

There were a total of six people who came to congratulate, surnamed Han, Zhang, Zhao, Wang, Fang, and Liu.

Chen Hengzhi just looked at the gift list, and basically knew the details of these people, basically they all had a lot of money, but they were not a moderately rich family of giant businessmen.

If it is a giant businessman, it is natural to have a relationship with the princes and princes, and the important ministers of the court.

However, these middle-rich households have a huge base in Yujing City, and they also concentrate a large amount of property.

"Since I'm going to the countryside to see the cold year, then I also have to prepare a gift." Chen Hengzhi said.

"That's not useful, Brother Chen's share, we're ready, let's take a sedan chair together, it's the first time we're sitting in a sedan chair, we have to try this taste."

A teenager surnamed Han laughed.

Only people and officials can sit in a sedan chair, which is the rule of the Daqian court, and even if the rest of the people have money, it is illegal to sit in a sedan chair.
