Yan Rongling Zhengse said: "It is feasible to open an assimilation hall. It's just that the way has to be changed, and they can't be allowed to eat for nothing, live for nothing, and learn for nothing. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng wanted to ask further, but he saw that many old ministers were watching. The wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it, and it is not yet time, so it is necessary to slow down and press again.

"Xiao Yao, I have seen your strategy, and it is similar to Yan Shaoxun. Tell me, how to assimilate the alien race with benevolence and righteousness? ”

This is an improvised problem, and the other students present are glad in their hearts: fortunately, the emperor didn't ask himself.

Xiao Yao was confident, and after taking a step forward and bowing his hand, he said loudly: "Back to the emperor, if the surrounding countries admire my Great Zhou culture, they can come to the capital to study." It's just that when you go to the school to study, you have to be restrained, how can you let your friends fall into the dilemma of reading the overlord's book. ”

Xiao Yao said this very cleverly, and he appreciated it both elegantly and vulgarly, which made all the civil and military officials smile.

Yan Shaoxun is also a little admired, only people who have traveled the world, seen all kinds of scenery, and appreciated all kinds of customs can say this.

Emperor Hongzheng stretched his face and said with a smile: "Xiao Yao, then what do you think, how can we be benevolent and righteous, and our friends will not fall into a dilemma?" ”

Xiao Yao smiled: "It's very simple, take what you need, and let them exchange what we are interested in." For example, Fusang students can use pearls and coral to bind their belly, while Huifu students should use sweat and blood horse breeding, Goryeo students use mountain ginseng, and Miaojiang students use elixir. ”

"We can teach them benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith, and we must also teach them that the Great Zhou is powerful and invincible. reminds them of the Great Zhou, only the heart of surrender, but no intention of attacking. ”

Xiao Yao spoke in simple terms, very clearly understood, Emperor Hong Zheng sighed in his heart, he was really a pillar of talent.

Xie Luo was still resisting: "Brother Xiao, in this way, where is my demeanor as a great country?" ”

The always soft smile on Xiao Yao's face slowly sank, and he sneered: "Brother Xie, do you know." The emperor is diligent in government affairs and works hard every day, but because of natural disasters in the Great Zhou, there are still people who can't eat enough and don't have warm clothes? ”

"Do you know that the frontier soldiers, windy and snowy, do not slack off in training for a day, but whenever a strong enemy comes to attack, there are still countless casualties? They have used their flesh and blood to exchange for our lives and work. ”

"And Brother Xie, why don't you give them your benevolence and demeanor? Give us the people of Da Zhou? ”

Xie Luo opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but he really didn't know how to refute.

Emperor Hong Zheng smiled at this time: "Xiao Yao, Xie Luo, your ideas are very interesting. It's better to write a policy after you go back, and submit it to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prime Minister will present it to me. ”

"Wechen (students) obey the order."

The next few people, either clichés and difficult to have new ideas, or pick up people's teeth and wisdom, read according to the script.

Emperor Hong Zheng listened with a smile and didn't think so.

In the end, he asked with some expectation: "Li Qingyi, you are a child of the Li family in Shangli, and you are from a wealthy background." Why do you care so much about people's livelihood? Even if you are prepared for danger in times of peace, you can think of the lives of the people? ”

Li Qingyi is not tall, but he is very handsome, and his smile is shy, far from being as sharp as his articles.

"Go back to the emperor and govern the country, if you cook a small fresh. Thousands of miles of embankments, collapsed in the anthill, water can carry the boat can also overturn the boat, so the people's life, people's livelihood is varied, can best reflect the standard of whether the world is stable today. ”

Emperor Hong Zheng seemed to be thinking about something, and after a while, he came back to his senses and asked, "Li Qingyi, who did you study with?" ”

Li Qingyi's face was full of remembrance, and he replied: "Back to the emperor, Teacher Xie Daolin lived in Shangli in his later years. The three students were fortunate enough to have accompanied the teacher for several years. ”

"Xie Daolin, I see."

Emperor Hong Zheng nodded, Xie Daolin was a well-educated person, and he was the champion of the first emperor's period. Later, because his wife was involved in the dispute over the heir, his wife died in childbirth, and he was disheartened and hung up, and since then he has been in love with the landscape.

Speaking of Xie Daolin, Emperor Hong Zheng looked at Xiao Yao and Li Qingyi, and jokingly said: "Mr. Xie is very talented!" Today, two of his students are gathered together, and I can't tell the difference! ”

Xiao Yao knew that the teacher later accepted Li Qingyi as a closed disciple. But Li Qingyi has never been clear about who the senior brother is.

In a hurry, he asked: "Does the emperor mean that the senior brother is also among us?" ”

Emperor Hong Zheng laughed and teased: "What, Xiao Yao, do you still want to hide it from your little junior brother?" ”

Xiao Yao hurriedly said: "Don't dare, Senior Brother Qingyi, I wanted to invite you to talk all night after the palace test." I didn't expect the emperor to fulfill you and me first, thank you emperor. ”

Li Qingyi was overjoyed, she really didn't expect that her senior brother would be Xiao Yao, who is famous all over the world, and she was so excited that she didn't know what to say.

However, this is not the time to reminisce about the past, and it is still necessary to wait for the emperor's decree to determine the ranking.

Emperor Hong Zheng rearranged the examination papers, wrote down the rankings in his own hand, and then handed them to the prince, who announced in public: "This autumn, the champion - Xiao Yao!" Leader - Xie Luo! Tanhua - Li Qingyi! Chuan Yu - Wang Pei! ……”

Subsequently, Wang Gonggong passed the ranking outside the palace.

The people waiting in the outer hall hurriedly added the top ten on the imperial list, and then quickly left the palace, and the gate of the tribute courtyard was still waiting to post the imperial list.

When the news reached the harem, Lu Ju reported to Gu Fanghua, "County Lord, Xiao Gongzi has won the champion!" ”

Sure enough, this is still the same as the previous life.

Then soon Xiao Yao will leave to return to Liaodong, and he will be buried in the belly of a wolf on the way. Gu Fanghua was a little hesitant, how should he tell him the news?

Empress Dowager Zhong also learned that Xiao Yao was the top student in high school and was chatting with the old lady of Duke Anguo.

"Blessed spirit, I have a good grandson."

"That's not it, it's not like the bastard boy in my family, who is out of tune all day long, so angry that I can't beat him anymore."

Empress Dowager Zhong glanced at Mrs. Qingping, who was sitting below, and whispered, "It's decided?" ”

Old Madam Wang was very hidden, rolled her eyes, and then quietly waved her hand, pouting, meaning that it didn't work out, and she was not satisfied.

Empress Dowager Zhong smiled and said, "You, you're still so sharp-eyed." ”

"It's not that the Queen Mother doesn't know, my temperament is rather lacking than excess. They thought it was a concubine of the Hou Mansion, and Lang'er would definitely be satisfied, but in fact, Yan Changtang couldn't even look down on things, why did Lang'er pick up the rags? ”

Old Madam Wang's face was dignified, but her words were extremely mean.

Empress Dowager Zhong smiled and narrowed her eyes, bit her ear in a low voice and said: "The concubines of the Hou Mansion can't look down on it, so which family do you like, the mourning family will help you get married." ”

Mrs. Wang teased: "Queen Mother, I really like two." It's just that one is the pearl you hold in the palm of your hand, and I don't dare to mention it. Another, Lang'er can't stand her beating again! ”

This is true, let the Empress Dowager Zhong be happy, the two of you come and I tease each other, and you can talk energetically.

Where Empress Jiang sat upright, her ears stretched out, but she couldn't hear what they were talking about. asked Concubine Bai Xian in a low voice: "Do you know what the Queen Mother and Mrs. Wang are talking about?" ”
