The north of the nine heavens, the Dragon Pavilion of the Tianquan Palace.

The four little fairy children were watching a star monarch splash ink in front of the bookcase. This Xingjun wears a black hat, a green robe, and three locks of black hair flowing under his chin, he is the master of the palace - Wenqu Xingjun.

I only heard the golden-clothed boy say, "Master, your handwriting is already very good, why are you still not satisfied?" ”

The black-clothed boy on the right side of Wenqu Xingjun pressed the corner of the paper and said, "Yes, Master, this is the fifth time you have written these words. ”

A boy in yellow on the left side of the paper, who was also pressing the edge of the paper, said: "Master's handwriting is definitely otherworldly and exquisite. I'm afraid that all the immortals in the entire Heavenly Palace are included, and there is no one who can compare to Master. ”

Another white-clothed boy with a spot between his eyebrows carefully pondered Xingjun's font and said, "That's natural, if our master is not poetry, literature, calligraphy, and painting, how can the Jade Emperor let our master be in charge of the Three Realms of Wenyun?" ”

These four children are the four disciples under the constellation of Wenqu Xingjun, namely the pen boy, the ink boy, the paper boy, and the inkstone boy.

Wenqu Xingjun stopped his pen and glanced at them: "You don't know, Emperor Ziwei of the Zhongtian Arctic has always been not very satisfied with the plaque on the gate of his palace, and he was ridiculed by the Antarctic Immortal a few days ago, and this time he specially instructed me to write a good plaque." Emperor Ziwei has a noble status, if there is no good plaque on the door of his palace, it is very shameless, not to mention that he is my boss, this matter cannot be sloppy. After speaking, he used a large pen to "brush" what he had just written, and began to rewrite the four big characters of "Zhongtian North Pole".

At this moment, I suddenly heard a shout outside the door: "Where is Wenqu Xingjun?" ”

Wenqu Xingjun saw that it was an angel sent by the Jade Emperor, hurriedly stopped his pen and ran out to greet him, and arched his hand forward, but the angel said: "Xingjun doesn't have to be polite, I just conveyed the Jade Emperor's message, the Jade Emperor will hold a court meeting tomorrow, within the Three Realms, all the mountains, seas, caves, and mansions of the immortals must participate, please Xingjun must not be wrong tomorrow." ”

Wenqu Xingjun said: "So grand? May I ask the angel, what day is tomorrow, and why did the Jade Emperor hold such a large-scale court meeting? ”

The angel had a straight face: "If you go, you will naturally know, I have to rush to inform Wuqu Xingjun, so I will stay soon, you can prepare it yourself." ”

As the saying goes: the prime minister is a three-grade official. Although this angel is not at any level, he is quite arrogant. Wenqu Xingjun wanted to keep him for tea, but before he could speak, the angel disappeared.

"The angels of the Jade Emperor are really unqualified!" Mo Tong said with some resentment.

Yan Tong said: "The Jade Emperor hasn't held a large-scale court meeting for a long time, I don't know what happened this time?" ”

"I don't know if I'm a teacher, but there must be something big to announce." Wenqu Xingjun also had no intention of writing a plaque anymore, "If you don't write it today, you can clean up the bookcase and rest early." ”

Early the next morning, Wenqu Xingjun came to the Nantian Gate early, and found that there were already many immortals in the southeast and northwest, in the sky and on the ground, and the famous mountains of the four seas, all waiting outside the Nantian Gate. Some of them were whispering, some were silent, but no one was making a loud noise. After waiting for a short time, all the immortals arrived, and the Tai Bai Star flashed out of the Nantian Gate, and said to the immortals in a long voice: "Spread the message of the Jade Emperor, and edict the immortals to go to court." ”

The immortals walked into the South Heavenly Gate in order of identity, and Wenqu Xingjun's status among the immortals was average, and he could only stand in the middle of the team. Entered the South Heavenly Gate, but saw auspicious clouds, Rui Hao fluttering, golden dragon and jade pillars, colorful phoenixes around the covered bridge. The cranes dance to each other, and the unicorns spit flames. Walking into the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, everyone stood in order, the golden light flashed in the middle of the treasure hall, and the Haotian Jinque Supreme Jade Emperor sat on it, and the two fairies behind him stood on the left and right with feather fans in their hands.

The Jade Emperor looked down at the immortals who crowded the Lingxiao Palace, and Qi Jinkou said: "Ladies and gentlemen, it is not for anything else to summon you here this time, just because many immortals have recently violated the rules of heaven and have been punished by the Division, resulting in many vacancies in the immortal position, and their positions are unmanaged, resulting in chaos in these fields and affecting the normal operation of the Three Realms." Therefore, the Heavenly Palace must select some people to log in to the immortal book and rank in the immortal class. This selection is not limited to origin, regardless of people and things, as long as there is spirituality and fairy roots, they can be selected. The Jade Emperor paused for a moment, looked around at the immortals, and continued, "Such a large-scale selection of immortal books is a rare occurrence in thousands of years, you immortals must seize the opportunity, if there are suitable candidates under the door, you can actively recommend them." The total number of places is eighteen, and the quota distribution is according to the Eastern Heavenly Palace, the Southern Heavenly Palace, the Western Heavenly Palace, and the Northern Heavenly Palace, with three students in each department and six in the Central Heavenly Palace......"

As soon as the Jade Emperor said this, he saw three dazzling golden lights, and three immortals flashed out of the Lingxiao Palace, namely Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, Taiqing Daode Tianzun, and Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun. These three immortals have silver hair, auspicious light on their heads, and their aura is very powerful, they are the supreme immortal ancestors in the fairy world. When the immortals saw the arrival of the three immortal ancestors, they hurriedly bowed down and bowed down collectively. The Jade Emperor also stood up and said in his mouth: "I don't know that the three Great Heavenly Venerables have arrived, and they have not greeted them, forgive sins, forgive sins." ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun hurriedly said: "How dare you, how dare you." The three of my brothers have lived in the heavens for a long time, and they have never asked about the affairs of the Three Realms. I have nothing to do every day except for practice, and I have nothing to do today, and I don't want to be so lively today, hahahaha. This voice was loud and loud, and the penetrating power was extremely strong, which shook the hearts and spleens of the immortals.

The Jade Emperor thought to himself: The three of them have already jumped out of the Three Realms and are no longer in the Five Elements. The three of them were not notified of the convening of this conference today, so how could the three of them suddenly come? The Immortal Book Supplement Conference, which has only been held once in thousands of years, has never been a high heaven in thousands of years, and it is so coincidental that they are together?

Yuan Shi Tianzun first signaled to the immortals to be exempt from courtesy, and then said: "The Jade Emperor is in charge of the Three Realms, and he works hard every day, it is really hard for you." ”

Hearing this, the Jade Emperor hurriedly smiled and said: "Great Tianzun's words make a certain Cheng fearful, it is his duty to be in charge of the Three Realms, how dare he say that it is hard." ”

Yuan Shi Tianzun nodded and smiled, then glanced around and said, "All the immortals gathered today, what is the matter?" ”

"Oh - it's just that many immortals have violated the rules of heaven recently and have been punished, resulting in the absence of some priesthoods, so today I gathered all the immortals to discuss the addition of immortals. I just explained to the immortals, as for the quota allocation, it has not yet been determined, and the three Tianzun came at the right time, so I would like to ask the three Tianzun here. ”

"Hehehehe." Yuan Shi Tianzun smiled, "Jade Emperor, the three of us have already jumped out of the Three Realms, regardless of the things of the Immortal Realm. Since the Three Realms have been handed over to you, you are the master of heaven and earth, and everything is up to you to decide......"

Before the Jade Emperor could react, the three Heavenly Venerables had already turned into three golden rays of light and disappeared.

After the three Tianzun left, the Jade Emperor's heart could not calm down: the three of them would never come down for no reason...... Is it because of the Immortal Recording Conference? - Definitely! Although the Three Realms are under my control, and the three of them have become Extraterrestrial Immortals, seven or eight out of ten of the Heavenly Court systems are their disciples, and all the high-ranking positions in Heavenly Court are monopolized by their disciples. And I, although I have experienced thousands of eons and am destined to dominate the Three Realms according to the Book of Heaven, I don't have much of my own connections, just an escrow. Although they have not interfered with my management of the Three Realms, let alone favored their disciples, once it comes to supplementing the Immortal Column, the situation is different. Because this move will affect the proportion of their disciples in the Heavenly Court, not to mention that there are many people this time, and the action is a bit big, how can they not pay attention to it...... Okay, but what about this matter, even if it's a little smaller? ”

At this time, the Jade Emperor glanced around His Royal Highness Ling Xiao, saw Wenqu Xing and Wen Changxing in the middle and rear positions, and finally his eyes fell on Wen Qu Xing. Hey, there it is. Wenqu Xing is in charge of the heavenly fortune, and I heard that the nether world has combined the literary movement and the official career, why don't I ask him?

Thinking of this, the Jade Emperor shouted loudly: "Where is Wenqu Xingjun? ”

When Wen Quxing heard this, so many immortals with status didn't speak, the Jade Emperor actually called his name first, and hurriedly went out of class: "Your Majesty, the little fairy is here." ”

"No courtesy." The Jade Emperor smiled, "Wenqu Xing, in the era of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors in the world, the world was the public, and all tribal leaders and chieftains were elected to serve as capable people. Later, the avenue was hidden, and the world was private. There is a difference between the noble and the low, the world is the world, the noble generation is noble, and the cheap generation is cheap. The three dukes, princes, scholars, and kings have all been passed down from generation to generation. This has resulted in great inequality, and many beings have complained. Since your disciple shouted the phrase 'learning and excellence is the master', I appreciate the connection between 'learning' and 'shi', so I sent you to be in charge of the heavens, so hundreds of years have passed, I don't know what the effect is now?" ”

Wenqu Xing played: "Xiaoxian thanks Your Majesty for trusting me. Since Xiaoxian took charge of the Tianxia Movement, he has been committed to combining 'Wen' and 'Shi'. 'Literature' is inseparable from 'Shi', and 'Shi' is inseparable from 'Wen'. Only with "literature" can we have a future, and only with "culture" can we make the people more submissive. ”

The Jade Emperor nodded: "You can talk about it carefully." ”

Wenqu Xingjun has not reported to the Jade Emperor for a long time, and today he asked about it, and he happened to report to the Jade Emperor about the situation of the lower realm he was in charge of: "The world's fortunes are all-encompassing, and the literary movement is just one of them. In the year of the Great Weekend, the world was in turmoil, the princes rose together, and the court was weak. At this time, all positive fortunes are declining, and the same is true for cultural movements, and they can't rise if they want to. Before Qin Shi Huang, in addition to hereditary nobles, most of the ways to enter the official were mainly based on land reclamation and military exploits. The more cities you conquer, the bigger your officials will be. Later, the heroes of the world continued to emerge, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Che, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, swept the four seas, and the world was peaceful - of course, these fortunes are in your Majesty's control. One luck is prosperous, one luck is prosperous, and Wenyun is no exception. Xiaoxian took advantage of this opportunity and implemented the probation system. As soon as this move came out, the Han Dynasty unearthed many capable people who governed the world, and governed the Han Dynasty in an orderly manner. This move not only made the country's fortunes prosperous, but also prompted the people of the world to be proud of reading, and Wenyun has been prosperous for a long time. However, the so-called major events in the world must be divided for a long time, and they must be divided for a long time. Later, the fortunes of the Han Dynasty declined, the politics were dark, the inspection was cronyism, and the continuous wars and the displacement of the people caused the inspection to be no longer clear, and the actions were not just a formality. ”

"The great man's qi is exhausted, and I already know this. So, what year is this in the world? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, now the Nether Realm is in the year of Cao Wei Ganlu."

The Jade Emperor said slowly: "Cao-Wei, Cao Wei can't achieve the great climate. After Cao Wei, there will be a brief reunification, but it will not last long, and then there will be hundreds of years of division in the world. What will be the arrangements for your cultural activities during this period? ”

Wenqu Xingjun hesitated slightly: "Back to Your Majesty, the inspection system has become a mere formality and cannot really play a role. ”

"Huh? Nine Grades of Officials Law, so what is the effect of implementation? ”

"The Nine Grades Official Law has not been implemented for a long time, and the effect is still unknown, Xiaoxian is about to send someone to the lower realm to investigate."

"Well, well, get the results and play them to me in time."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wenqu Xingjun returned to his original position.

"Ahem." The Jade Emperor cleared his throat, "Ladies and gentlemen, you all heard what Wenqu Xingjun said just now. The way to take officials from the lower realm is not immutable, and our immortal book supplement is also the same as that of officials and scholars from the lower realm, we must try to come, and everything cannot be arbitrary. This immortal recording conference was originally planned to be selected at one time, but the steps were a bit too big. Therefore, I have decided on the basis that all priesthoods will be recommended and examined first, and then selected in stages. ”

The immortals looked at each other, and no one dared to say anything. After a long time, Tai Bai Xing broke the embarrassment and said, "Your Majesty Shengming." When the immortals heard this, they also hurriedly shouted in unison: "Your Majesty Shengming." ”

"Okay, since you immortals have no opinions, then go back and think about it, and try to recommend some six pure and outstanding ones to enrich our immortal team. Well, scatter the dynasty! ”
