This year's scientific expedition in Dasui is different from previous years because it has been held twice.

The first time was simply a formality, and the people who went to Beijing from all over the country were screened by the officials, and none of them participated in the palace examination.

So everyone thinks that the reason why the second one is held is that the emperor feels too embarrassed, as if I have no talent in Dasui.

So there are ten subjects, eight of which are actually not very valued, because everyone has heard that this year there is a new Jinshi, as long as you can be admitted to the Jinshi, you can directly enter the official office.

In previous years, the wind was small and the rain was small, but this year's second one was different, and there were many big names, from 14 to 60 years old.

Because of the ten subjects, covering a wide range, among which filial piety, virtue, righteousness, cleanliness, perseverance, integrity, and unforgiving, these subjects value prestige.

Academic excellence, literary talent, talent, and important knowledge.

Strength and arrogance depend on the body, of course, appearance.

In fact, these ten subjects are equivalent to relaxing the conditions for becoming a person, in the past, only learning was emphasized, but now it is relaxed, and you have a good character, it is okay.

Therefore, this second scientific expedition was extremely sensational, and people from all over the country who were recommended to come up entered Daxing in a swarm.

In the past, scientific research was under the management of the Ministry of Officials, but in the second session of this year, Yang Guang was assigned to the Ministry of Rites, so the current Ministry of Rites is in charge of the decrees of etiquette, sacrifice, and tribute in the world.

Maybe it's because Yang Guang feels that Niu Hong is better than Yang Gongren in this regard.

If you want to talk about the scientific expedition of the Great Sui, how dark it is, then you have to mention one person, Xu Jingzong.

This person mixed very well in the Tang Dynasty, and until the Wu Zetian period, he was still a central member, and there were many poems that were circulated in the world.

But the current Xu Jingzong is only fourteen years old.

Originally, the minimum age for the scientific expedition of the Great Sui was originally set at fifteen years old, but in the second session this year, it was temporarily changed to fourteen years old.

Of course, Xu Jingzong does not have this ability, but his father Xu Shanxin is a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, so Xu Jingzong participated in the scientific examination this year as a person from his hometown Yuhang County.

He was only fourteen years old, and he had to compete with a group of Confucian scholars in their fifties and sixties.

There is also a person named Kong Yingda, the thirty-second grandson of Confucius, in history, will become one of Li Shimin's eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, his hometown is in Xindu County, Jizhou, that is, where Wei Yuancheng Jizhou Thorn Mansion is located, and the quota in previous years will not be his turn.

But this year, he was lucky, the three people in the first scientific examination had already returned, and the quota for the second game was relatively short, so Wei Yuancheng gave him the opportunity, the reason is that Kong Yingda's teacher is called Liu Zhuo, and he is currently a doctor of Taixue who is one of the four courses under Guozijian.

There is also a man named Yang Su, who is sixteen years old this year, born in the Yang family of Hongnong, and in terms of seniority in the clan, he calls Yang Su his brother.

The quota of Hongnong County is not something that ordinary people can get, in fact, the Yang family usually doesn't take this quota very seriously.

But this year is different, there is a jinshi, and you can become an official in the exam.

.......

The talents of the Great Sui gathered together, only for the Jinshi.

In addition to Niu Hong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Xu Shanxin, and Xue Daoshi, there are also Dr. Xiao Gai, Dr. Xu Wenyuan, Dr. Guozijian, Bao Kai, assistant teacher Bao Kai, Yao Cha, the prince, Yu Shiji, and so on.

The crown prince Yang Zhao is the chief examiner.

As long as these people think that they can pass the test, they can participate in the palace examination, and whether they can become a jinshi depends on Yang Guang.

Yang Jian's previous palace exams were mostly lake alleys, and Pei Ju was around to help him ask questions, and then he saw that he had a good background and was pleasing to the eye, so it was basically the same.

But Yang Guang is different, Yang Guang is a true talent, Zizhi Tongjian records: the emperor is conceited and talented, every proud of the world, the courtiers said: "The world is said to be my inheritance and there are four seas, and I am ordered to be selected by scholars and doctors, and I should also be the son of heaven." ”

It means that they all say that I, the emperor, am taking my father's class, but if I am asked to take the exam with the scholars and doctors of the world, I will still be the emperor.

Although he is a little conceited, he has no real talent and learning, and he does not dare to be so conceited.

After half a month-long assessment, the Ministry of Rites selected 60 people to enter the court and participate in the palace examination.

Among them, the three children of the Cui family, in fact, among these people, are not outstanding at all, and the most awesome is Xu Shanxin's son Xu Jingzong.

Everyone thinks that he relies on his father, who knows that others rely on themselves, this person is Yang Guang's favorite among all the people who participated in the palace examination.

At the age of fourteen, he entered the office and directly entered the province to do things, and he was eight products.

As for the three places of the Cui family, they were given to the three children of the big house, the small house, and the Xingyang house, and they were all released to the south, two Taishou and one assassin.

However, there is a child surnamed Cui in Qinghe Dafang, named Cui Wei, who is tall and handsome, and he is not a Jinshike, but arrogant, but he was caught by Yang Guang at a glance, and he directly made his own Qianniu preparation.

This person is Cui Fuli's own grandson, and he is full of face.

In the second scientific examination of this year, Yang Guang was still very satisfied, and a total of 24 jinshi were selected and awarded positions, some in the imperial city and some in the locality.

Among the 24 people, there are 14 people who are related to the Guanzhong Group.

That night, Yang Guang also set up a banquet in the Liangyi Hall to entertain these Dengke Jinshi, which was very fond of Xu Jingzong, this kid was young and precocious, and the answer was like a stream when he asked questions, so that Yang Guang was quite favored, and even summoned Xu Shanxin and rewarded him, to the effect that he gave birth to a good son.

A few days later, Yang Guang received a note from Yu Wenkai.

Although it is not explicitly stated between the lines, it can be seen that they are all suing Yang Hui, the king of Qi.

It's already mid-August, and Yu Wenkai's recital makes it very clear that before March next year, Luoyang will definitely not be built.

So Yang Guang called Yu Shiji, drafted the recital, and transferred the king of Qi back to Beijing to serve as the pastor of Yongzhou.

The two sons are in Luoyang, no one is convinced, Dongdu Construction can't go smoothly, so he can only transfer one, Yang Guang chose Yang Yan because he was angry, and he had to clean up his second son in person, face to face.

As for Yang Xiong's eucalyptus sect that they delivered to Jingshi, Yang Guang also saw that the prince's tribe was attacked, and this matter needed to have a result, so his reply to Yang Xiong was four words: "You think for yourself." ”

And this reply was delivered a few days later than Yang Lan's order.

That night, Ma Lao Liu, who had followed Yang Guang for half his life, came to the Qin Palace, and he came to talk to an acquaintance, so he didn't enter the mansion, but just let someone convey it.

After a while, Yang Ming's guard Zhu Sanli came out, Ma Lao Liu turned around and left, and Zhu Sanli followed behind.

In fact, after Zhu Sanli returned to Beijing, he did not leave the door, so no one knew that he had returned to Beijing.

But in the Qin Palace, too many people were the old men of the Jin Palace, so Ma Lao Liu could know if he inquired a little.

The two stopped at a roadside stall in Dongshi, and Ma Lao Liu ordered two bowls of treasure meat noodles.

Zhu Sanli had already guessed the other party's purpose for seeing him, both of them were the members of the King of Jin back then, and they were both strong sergeants selected by Yang Guang from the military formation, because the sixth brother was older than him, so Zhu Sanli called the sixth brother.

During the noodle eating, Ma Lao Liu didn't ask anything, but only asked after returning to the alley where the Qin Wangfu was located:

"Aren't you gone? How did you come back again? ”

Zhu Sanli said: "On the order of King Qin, a letter was delivered to the princess. ”

Ma Lao Liu said: "Brother, you tell me the truth, now someone is eyeing you, if you don't tell the truth, I can't protect you in front of Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Sanli said with a straight face: "My brother has nothing to hide, and he did send a letter back." ”

"You're the only one coming back?" Ma Lao Liudao.

Zhu Sanli smiled: "There are five more brothers. ”

Ma Lao Liu nodded: "No matter who asks in the future, you will reply like this." ”

After leaving this sentence, Ma Lao Liu turned around and left, and soon disappeared at the end of the alley.

The Imperial Palace, the Forbidden Garden.

Here lived the Xuanhua lady Chen, and Yang Guang often came here.

At this time, Yang Guang, together with Xuanhua's wife Chen, was looking at a huge picture scroll called Guangling Tu.

Yang Guang, who has lived in Jiangdu for 11 years, saw things and thought about things, and was stunned for a while.

Chen has no name now, but he is really favored, and he smiled on the side when he saw this:

"Your Majesty loves this painting so much?"

Yang Guang came back to his senses from his memories, shook his head and said: "I don't love this painting, just to think about the old places to visit, but Huang and Huai can't get through, and I can't get there." ”

At this time, Ma Lao Liu came back,

"Zhu Sanli doesn't admit it, but there is already news from Dali Temple that the day when King Qin's tribe returned to Beijing is roughly the same as the time when King Qi's tribe was killed."

Yang Guang was not surprised, nodded and said, "Zhu San has followed me for three years, right?" ”

"Yes, more than three years," Ma Lao Liudao.

Yang Guangdao: "Since he is now my son's guard, he should think about the third child in everything, I don't blame him, but Zheng Shanguo, why should he hide it from me?" ”

"This....... I don't know if I am humble, "Ma Lao Liudao."

Yang Guang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Of course you don't know, you don't have as many fancy intestines as them, go down." ”

After Ma Lao Liu left, Yang Guang took Mrs. Xuanhua into his arms:

"Jiangnan is your hometown, and it is also the hometown where I miss day and night, wait for another two years, and when I connect Huang and Huai, I will definitely take you with me to cruise Jiangnan."

Chen snorted and buried himself tightly in Yang Guang's chest, accepting the favor of the second emperor of the Great Sui.

In the first year of the Great Cause, on the third day of the ninth month, Yang Hui, the king of Qi, was ordered to return to Beijing and serve as the pastor of Yongzhou.

Before leaving, Yang Ming did not go to see his third brother, and Yang Ming did not go to see his second brother.

On the day of the team's departure, Yang Jun looked back at the direction of Luoyang and gritted his teeth.

"Now that I return to my father and mother's side, it's your turn to lose power, the third, the third, let's see."
