Chapter 53: Preparation for the Imperial Examination, Diplomatic Spirit

Xuanli wants to convene the imperial examination system, which has been announced in the five mansions of Xuanli, whether it is a former official of the Yan State or ordinary people, as long as they are talented people, they can participate.

The monarch Luo Xuanyin couldn't bear to leave the virtuous and talented, so he issued an edict to open the imperial examination, and the news spread like a gust of wind throughout the streets and alleys of Xuanli.

Among them, Yanyu Mansion and Fengyong Mansion were the most shocked, according to the past, they were all recommended by various wealthy families, or by the Ministry of Officials, in order to have the opportunity to enter the court as officials.

But now these edicts are gone!

Those high-ranking families will also be in the examination room with us in the future, so that they can have the opportunity to enter the court as officials.

Changningdu, Nanming Street, in the distance of a five-story restaurant, it is Jingshui Restaurant.

Since Xu Liuqing appeared here, many people want to see the first person in Xuanli Jianghu, and they have come here, and the restaurant business is getting better and better day by day, so Zhang Jianwen of the household department will expand here.

On the first floor, a few guests who were drinking and recreational were discussing the matter of the Xuanli Imperial Examination.

The old man in the black robe picked up the peanuts on the plate with one hand, twisted his beard with the other, and said with emotion: "When the old man was young, he went south and north, and at that time, the seven old men of the human race also went to the country one by one. ”

Other drinkers also echoed one after another, and for a while there was an endless stream of voices praising Luo Xuanyin.

Now there is still a month before the imperial examination, and with the current security of Xuanli, there is no fear of encountering bandits on the road, and all counties, counties, and governments will organize to go to Changningdu.

On the second floor of Jingshui Restaurant, a group of scribes wearing jade-colored robes talked and laughed happily.

With the spread of the news of the imperial examination, many people who still have strength in the family have sent young children to go, and some of them do not come to the imperial examination.

"Do you know the origin of the examiner of this literary examination?" A scholar with a handsome appearance and an elegant and peaceful temperament, said softly.

"Brother Zhang, do you have any gossip?"

The scholar surnamed Zhang waved the fan in his hand, nodded, and then replied: "The chief examiner of the liberal arts this time is Su Shoufu, and the chief examiner of the martial arts department is the former owner of this hotel, Xu Sizhu. ”

Now Xuanli still only has two supernatural realms, and these two organize the two examinations of literature and martial arts, which is enough to prove that Xuanli attaches great importance to this imperial examination.

Just as the talents on the second floor were discussing the imperial examination, they were full of illusions about the imperial examination, the title of the gold list, and so on.

In fact, most of the people on the second floor are from poor families, and this Jingshui restaurant is also increasing in price layer by layer, which also represents a symbol of status.

Besides, the resources in the cold family are limited, and there are a few who can become talents, which is far from being comparable to those big families.

Generally speaking, the clans not only have a large number of people, but also have sufficient knowledge of martial arts, so most of the clans think that this is a clan competition prepared for them.

On the third floor, there were far fewer people than on the second floor, and these people were all dressed in brocade and jade silk, with jade pendants hanging from their waists, and they showed their arrogance, and heard bursts of laughter from the second floor, and they discussed the imperial examination.

A young man on the third floor showed disdain and said: "The cold door will always be the cold door, and the hundred years of history of our clan are comparable to their ten-year cold window?" It's time for them to see this time. ”

……

Xuanli National Palace, in the imperial study.

Luo Xuanyin was looking at the question of Su Musha's imperial examination volume, and after reading it, he couldn't help but nodded.

There is a question about whether the imperial examination is beneficial to the country, please indicate your willingness.

Luo Xuanyin also wanted to see how the students answered, and in addition, for the exam of the Martial Academy, Xu Liuqing planned to put it in a demon beast mountain range in Xuanli.

In Xu Liuqing's words, that is, if you don't experience the edge of death, you don't know how much potential you have.

The strong are not honed by pairs, but return to the horizontal jump on the edge of death.

Xu Liuqing said that when he was young, his master also left him in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, during which he was alone, and he spent an unknown number of terrifying nights in that mountain range, and every time he breathed extremely carefully, which also made him surpass his master at the age of fifty.

During the martial arts period, the Xuan, Earth, and Heaven-level Tiger Guards will protect the students and try to achieve zero casualties.

Its ranking is assessed according to the score of the monster hunted, and the first round is a team of five people, and the team needs to reach 500 points before the second round of martial arts competition.

Among them, the beast gets five points, the spirit gets thirty points, and the little demon gets one hundred points, and the top five teams can get rewards in terms of Xuanli.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

There was a knock on the door of the study, and then a voice came:

"Minister, Ren Zaijie, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, has something to enlighten the monarch."

Luo Xuanyin raised his eyebrows and said, "Come in." ”

After Ren Zaijie came in, he took out a large book from the sleeve of his purple-clothed official robe and handed it to Luo Xuanyin.

The personnel arrangements for the imperial examinations in various prefectures, counties, and counties are all arranged by the Ministry of Rites, and the workload is very huge.

Luo Xuanyin opened a random book, and he didn't know that just one county had more than 500 people come to participate in the two imperial examinations of literature and martial arts.

Ren Zaijie also reported the information he summarized at this moment: "Qiyu Guojun, there are now more than 7,000 people in the liberal arts in Xuanli, and there are more than 4 people in Wuju. ”

Hearing this number, Luo Xuanyin's brain became bigger, the number of people in the imperial examination this time was so large, and when the time came, Changning would be mixed, and it was inevitable that some people with bad intentions would be mixed in.

The number of people in Changning Capital is only more than 500 people in the Imperial City Division, and in the face of such a huge Changning Capital, these numbers are still too small, and if necessary, Luo Xuanyin plans to send the Praetorian Guard.

Luo Xuanyin put the fold on the imperial case and looked straight at Ren Zaijie, as if he wanted to see him through.

Ren Zaijie was stared at by him, and he kept wondering if he had made a mistake in what he did?

"Ren Aiqing, Lone has a question, I don't know if you know!"

Luo Xuanyin said.

It was this opening that frightened Ren Zaijie: "The monarch, please say, the minister must be outspoken!" ”

Luo Xuanyin looked at him like that, and couldn't help but be a little funny: "Ren Shangshu don't be nervous, I just want to ask, can the Ministry of Rites establish diplomacy with the Jinghuo Clan of the Ming Medicine Pavilion?" ”

Ren Zaijie thought for a while, and then said: "Monarch, I'm afraid this is a bit difficult, the main reason is that a race is born with a sense of contempt for other races, although the Jinghuo clan has built a pavilion here to sell Dan, but it is also very resistant to the human race." ”

Luo Xuanyin heard him say this: "Is there a chance then?" ”

Actually, Luo Xuanyin still wants to develop Xuanli Alchemy and casting.

The ancient method of Zhurong obtained by lighting up [Fangsu] had already been handed over to Cui Hongqian, otherwise he would not have been able to promote to the seventh grade.

But there are many that are not only visible, if no one guides them, they still don't know anything, which causes Luo Xuanyin to want to learn from the Jinghuo Dynasty.

Ren Zaijie pondered for a while, during which his face changed several times, and finally said: "The minister also has an idea, but he needs some high-grade spirit mines." ”

"With Chen's thoughts, the Jinghuo Clan loves casters and alchemy, and often can't put down high-grade spirit mines, so the minister wants to start with this!"

Luo Xuanyin was also very atmospheric, and said: "Then there is Lao Ren Shangshu, Gaopin Lingkuang will send someone to send it later, remember this diplomacy with the Jinghuo Clan, if it succeeds, you will have a great achievement!" ”

When Ren Zaijie heard this, his bitter gourd face also improved a little, and said: "Then Weichen will retire here, and please wait for the good news of Weichen." ”

After speaking, he slowly exited the imperial study.

Luo Xuanyin sighed slightly, if Xuanli Casting and Alchemy were strong, then they still needed to beg each other like this, everything was that this hateful strength was not enough.

"Come on, send the two pieces of six-grade spirit ore from the Xuanli treasure house to Ren Shangshu, and take out five hundred yuan stones from the treasury casually."
