Chapter Forty-Seven: The Second Hour of Spring

Chai Tiannuo sighed, a few days ago, he first got a letter from Zhao Jiujin and Zhao Sanli, the content of which was very amazing!

After the beginning of spring, as the temperature rose, the plague began to wreak havoc in the northwest, and in just two months, half of the soldiers and civilians in the entire northwest province were infected with the plague.

In order to control the plague and cure the sick, the Northwest Finance, which was already stretched thin by repairing the city and paying for the bereavement, completely collapsed.

In just one decade, the number of people who died of plague ghosts in the northwest was reported to be more than 50,000, and as the shortage of medicinal materials became more and more scarce, the number of deaths rose sharply.

The two hoped that Chai Tiannuo could help purchase medicine from the capital, and now the Northwest Frontier Army can fight less than 30% of the personnel, if there is a real war, I am afraid it will not last long.

Hearing that there was an accident in the northwest, Chai Tiannuo immediately couldn't sit still, and hurriedly contacted Bao Bujian and asked him to help find the source of goods, money is not a problem, as long as the quantity!

Bao Buru agreed, the old friendship is here, Chai Tiannuo's identity is very different now, so he naturally does his best.

The medicinal materials will be on the road, and Chai Tiannuo has received a letter from two ministers, hoping that he can say a lot of good words in the capital and exempt the northwest from taxes and silver this year.

Although everything in the northwest is flourishing and the plants are growing gratifying because of the Kui Tian wolf thing, half of the people have fallen ill, and the entire northwest has been suspended, and the tax and silver, which was not much in the past, has become a big trouble this year.

"Why don't you talk to me about this, there are many people and great power, and they can always come up with some solutions."

Li Chenglan said complainingly, Zhao Shilang nodded on the side, and Chai Tiannuo grinned bitterly:

"Tax and silver are the foundation of the country, and it is one of the symbols of the northwest belonging to Dahua, so it is better not to mix with the military department."

“…… Tiannuo is right, this kind of thing, martial artists can't be involved. ”

Zhao Shilang shook his head helplessly, and the general also sighed, indeed, this kind of thing that involves the fundamentals of the country, the Ministry of War and himself, the general, cannot be involved.

"Fortunately, the northwest tax is small, but it is a symbolic collection, and the amount in my hand is not too much, with the 200,000 taels of spring hair, it is more than enough."

I see, the two nodded, no wonder Chai Boy would act like this.

"It's just that I lost you, and the silver taels that I earned so hard were all filled in the hole with the northwest, and the old and small species should set up a memorial arch with you, otherwise I'm sorry for your affection!"

General Li Chenglan sighed and said that Chai Tiannuo almost sprayed:

"You can pull it down, the archways are all set up with the festival woman, I don't want to be a festival woman!"

"The boy who doesn't learn and has no skills, what you said is the archway of chastity, not the archway of merit!"

When the Manchu Dynasty civil and military watched the servants whispering, the original site of the Northwest Suolong Pass, there was a big merit archway under construction.

The construction workers are all full of sick faces, but the work in hand is extremely serious.

In the past, the eighteen-mile fort head cutter, and now Chai Shixian, and the merit archway he built, must be serious!

"Chai boy and the northwest, there is great kindness!"

The old minister said with emotion that he had received Chai Tiannuo's reply through Qin Tianjian's channel, and there were only a few sentences in it:

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm out of the money, the medicine is on the way, I wish the northwest is safe!"

"If you have something to contact in advance, the northwest is also the hometown of a certain person!"

"Come and drink the decoction, hurry up, otherwise the body and bones will definitely not be able to hold it!"

A roar full of anger sounded, and the little Xianggong looked at the Qingfeng Dao Leader in the distance, and said with a wry smile:

"The stranger is really weird, if it weren't for the Chai boy, Master Qingfeng would never get involved in the affairs of the northwest."

The old breed nodded:

"For a master like him, all living beings in the world are dogs, and everything depends only on the mind."

Although the two were far apart, they could hear the words clearly, and they couldn't help muttering:

"Mao's mind, cause and effect are here, if it is not over, can someone get out?"

"Ball!"

The three of them finished whispering, and the boss of the Tianqi Emperor reluctantly promulgated the decision.

Chai Tiannuo is admitted to the same civil and military examinations, but is not included in the admission quota.

Originally, the Chunyu civil and military imperial examinations were held at the same time, and for some reason, the martial arts examination was carried out first and then the literary examination.

As soon as this news came out, Dahua was shaken, because one person changed the imperial examination, which was unheard of!

"Husband, are you sure you will win here?"

Xingdou was in the sky, Chai Tiannuo got up to leave, Chai Man'er helped him straighten his clothes, and asked with some concern.

The Dahua Imperial Examination was inherited from the previous dynasty, and it was originally a three-level township examination, a meeting examination, and a palace examination.

But Emperor Taizu was the most annoyed and procrastinated, and directly issued an order to change the third level to two levels.

In the autumn of the people, in the provincial tribute institute reference, the spring of the Jinshi, all into the Luoyang Tongtian Yuan reference, directly save the tribute this step.

It's just that such a reform has made the world suffer.

Originally, at most, hundreds of tributes entered Beijing, but now it has become thousands of people, and the total cost of the journey is not a small amount.

"You girl, you're going to worry about it!"

Chai Tiannuo gently rubbed Man'er's head, turned around and left.

Looking at Chai Tiannuo who was far away under the starry night, Chai Man'er also smiled, the first thing to hold was the martial arts exam, and his husband was a Yalu Immortal, who could be an opponent?

The gate of Luoyang, which was only opened at midnight on weekdays, was opened at midnight today, and the soldiers defending the city yelled at Chai Tiannuo, who rode into the city:

"I wish you a high school champion and prosperous official luck!"

"You can pull it down, a certain is now a third-grade general, to say the least, it is also a fourth-grade, from the third-grade rank."

"The champion is just a petty official of seven or eight grades, what is there to wish for?"

Chai Tiannuo sneered, and the soldiers grinned, but it's not like that, as soon as he said the champion on weekdays, he felt high, but if he really thought about it, he was much worse than his own adults!

"Let's go, I won't mess with you!"

With a wave of his hand, Chai Tiannuo rode away, and shouted from behind him:

"My lord, I may win the first place, so I'm good to make up my mind in the game."

"Nonsense, a certain Yu Chun is invincible, and there are children everywhere in his vision!"

Ma Xingyuan, Chai Tiannuo's arrogant voice came, and the soldiers shouted loudly:

"Admiral Nakaro is mighty!"

After being searched by the flattering invigilator, Chai Tiannuo was immediately dumbfounded as soon as he entered Tongtian Courtyard, what the hell is this damn ground!

Everywhere you look is a half-human tall and low earth temple-like building, one after another, I am afraid that there will be thousands.

At first glance, it feels shocking, but I can't help but scold my mother when I look closely, many of the tops are broken, and if it rains, it will leak.

Wouldn't it drive people crazy to stay in such an environment for three days?

"It's sloppy, it's really sloppy."

I knew this was the case, so I didn't agree to the competition.

200,000 taels horizontally and vertically, meditating on the good landscape of the painting, and then with the first meaningful poem is enough, why bother to come here to suffer.

Shaking his head, if he comes, he will be safe, Chai Tiannuo drilled into the number house according to the brand, and looked at the dirty appearance inside and got angry directly, damn it, there are lice and fleas clustering, it's so disgusting!

"Boom!"

Ming Hong fell and directly turned the house into dust, and the insects inside were shattered.

"That's what it looks like."

With his hands pressed into the air, the ground immediately became extremely hard, and then waved his hand, exquisite tables and chairs appeared, and there was a roof for shade, Chai Tiannuo nodded with satisfaction, so it was comfortable.
