Chapter 234 Qishan Lingbao Sect
"What Xiao Yushi said is extremely true, and the minister thinks that it can be jointly organized by the Department of Education and the Department of Officials, and the two sides will supervise each other."
Without waiting for Zhang Shuo to speak, Wang Anshi nodded and said thoughtfully.
"Good, then the two of you will be in charge of it...... Director Xiao has worked hard. ”
"Sharing worries for the monarch is what the minister should do, please rest assured that the monarch will enforce the law impartially!"
Seeing Zhang Shuo talking to himself, Xiao Cong, who had just been squeezed by Wang Anshi and was silent, opened his mouth, as if he was not targeted by Wang Anshi before.
Then everyone had a detailed discussion on the matter of the spring examination, and finally set the time for the imperial examination on April 1 of the following year, and the Department of Education was responsible for publicity, and the Department of Officials was responsible for arranging the examination room and the accommodation of the students who came to the examination.
The content of the imperial examination is divided into five aspects: current affairs, Moyi, oral examination, posting scriptures, and poetry, and the specific topics are jointly discussed by the Department of Education and the Department of Officials, and then reviewed and decided by Zhang Shuo.
……
On September 1 of the first year of Jianwu, Zhang Shuo, under the repeated urging of Meng Haitao and Ling Jin, used the recruitment function of the Zhaoxian Pavilion and obtained an expert-level blacksmith. With a bad mood, I toured Qishan County in the north.
"This mountain road is really too difficult to walk, Zhang Xiaoyou, the Lingbao faction of the great Taoist sect has moved to Qianguo in a big way. You don't go through the road with a craftsman. ”
Ling Jin looked at the soldiers who were opening the road in front of him, stepping on the muddy mountain road, and said to Zhang Shuo with a complaining face.
"Haha, old man, I have never experienced this kind of hardship in my life, and it can be regarded as an experience."
Meng Haitao looked at his arm that was cut by thorns and said with a depressed wry smile.
"Don't complain, the two of you don't have to complain, the disciples of the Lingbao Sect don't have soldiers to open the way, aren't they all going up the mountain? As Uncle Meng said, maybe this is a kind of practice for them. If I hastily build the road, I will do something bad with good intentions. ”
Compared with Meng Haitao and Ling Jin, Zhang Shuo seemed a lot more relaxed. He's not a pampered person, and climbing a mountain isn't a problem.
The three of them talked and laughed forward, and under the guidance of Xie Jing, the county commander of Qishan County, they walked for more than five hours before reaching the top. When they saw the scene in front of them, almost everyone, including Zhang Shuo, was shocked by the scene in front of them.
The peak has been bulldozed by the Lingbao Sect, and there are a large number of disciples repairing the building not far away. And what shocked Zhang Shuo and the others was that among these people, there were many strong men with shiny hair all over their bodies!
"The Lingbao Sect is in charge of Ge Xuan, and I have seen King Qian."
Zhang Shuo was going to visit the mountain, and he had already sent someone to inform him in advance. So as soon as Zhang Shuo reached the top of the mountain with his front foot, Ge Xuan took Ge Hong, Zheng Yin and others to greet him.
"It's polite."
Zhang Shuo replied with a smile, nodded to the two behind him, and then asked curiously: "Master, are those all summoned god generals?" ”
"That's it."
Ge Xuan turned his head to look at it, and then said to Zhang Shuo with a smile: "The gods must not be blasphemed, how can my Lingbao Sect ask the gods to come down to earth and do labor for us." Those are ordinary Yellow Turban wrestlers, because they lack spiritual intelligence, so they can only be used to do coolies and construction, and they have to let the disciples go to it themselves. ”
"I see!"
When Zhang Shuo heard this, he suddenly realized, no wonder these people all wore yellow turbans on their heads, and Zhang Shuo almost thought that the yellow turban thieves had developed into Qianguo.
"Smack."
I saw Zhang Shuo raise his hands above his head and pat, and a group of Longxiang Army soldiers came over behind him, carrying a batch of items wrapped in black cloth.
"King Qian, what is this?" Seeing this, Ge Xuan immediately asked suspiciously.
"Don't blame the master, some time ago, the war in Qianguo was urgent, and the lonely emperor was out on the expedition, if there is any inadequate hospitality, please bear with me.
These are fifty collapsible marching tents, which can solve the temporary accommodation problem of the disciples first, and later ask the construction department to send a construction team over to assist you. ”
Zhang Shuo said apologetically. In fact, he did this on purpose, in order to let the people of the Lingbao faction suffer first. In this way, if Zhang Shuo helps again, the other party will have a deep impression and remember him well.
If the people haven't arrived yet, they have all been properly arranged, then it is a clear sycophant, not to mention that it is good for people to remember you, maybe people are still ashamed of you and feel that they are superior.
"This batch of tents has solved the problem that my Lingbao Sect disciples have no shelter, thank you very much. When it comes to repairing the dojo, we don't dare to bother the king of the godsend, so we can just repair it slowly. Ge Xuan shook his head with a smile and said.
"The Lingbao Sect is the state religion of our country, we are a family, why should we be so outside. You can prepare the drawings yourself, and hand over the rest to the craftsmen of Qianguo. There is also a road up the mountain that has to be repaired, not only to repair, but also to cultivate the style of the Lingbao faction, which is set as 9999 steps. As long as you take these 9,999 steps and come to the Lingbao Sect, you will have a chance to ascend to the sky in one step. ”
"This ......"
For Zhang Shuo's enthusiasm, Ge Xuan was also a little at a loss, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at his nephew Ge Hong behind him.
Ge Hong saw that his ancestor looked at him, and immediately proposed: "It's hard to resist kindness, so the ancestor will accept it." It just so happened that the monarch needed to refine a large amount of Baigu Dan and Horse Food Pills, so he could ask the disciples to help refine some in their leisure time for cultivation. ”
"So it will be as you wish."
Hearing this, Ge Xuan smiled and nodded and said. And Zhang Shuo was also very happy in his heart, asking Lingbao to send disciples to help refine the elixir, which was originally Zhang Shuo's idea from beginning to end, and now Ge Hong took the initiative to mention it, which saved him a lot of tongue.
"Ancestor, the monarch has every opportunity, this time I came to visit, why not take this time to help the monarch confer the throne."
"Okay, let's get started." Ge Xuan readily agreed.
"A few immortal masters, wait a minute......"
Zhang Shuo stopped the three people who were about to take Zhang Shuo to confer the throne, and introduced Meng Haitao, Ling Jin, and a group of cronies brought by the two of them, explaining their intention to worship the Lingbao Sect.
Meng Haitao and Ling Jin were also very good-looking, regardless of whether they could succeed or not, they each donated eight hundred taels of silver and one thousand taels of silver to the Lingbao faction. This wealthy appearance made the surrounding several Lingbao Sect disciples who were secretly paying attention to this side directly dazzled.
After some testing, including Meng Haitao and Ling Jin, a total of seven people were selected by the Lingbao Sect, but they were all only registered disciples, and they needed to be investigated for a period of time to make sure that they had no bad convictions and performed well before they were conferred.
Meng Haitao and Ling Jin are definitely going to go, and whether they can obtain the qualification for the award in the future can only be seen step by step. As for the other five, they were all left behind, not only to obtain the qualification for the conferral, but also to take chances, hoping to pull some Lingbao Sect disciples to help them.
