"Are you going to Beiping? Live like Zhu Yunwen? ”

"Hmph. Unfortunately, I can't! ”

At this time, Zhu Yunxi was sitting on the carriage heading to the railway station outside Nanjing.

Outside the carriage, four brocade guards with strong martial arts were in charge of escorting.

It was night, and they wanted to send Zhu Yunxi to Beiping overnight, and there must be no mistake.

Outside the city of Nanjing, the scenery is still the same.

The night was dark and silent, and the distant starry sky shimmered faintly, as if countless flickering lights dotted the darkness.

The breeze rustled the grass.

You can't help but feel a little cool.

The occasional barking of dogs and frogs in the distance broke the quiet night.

At night, there are few people walking on the roads outside the city, only the occasional pedestrian hurrying by, as if wrapped in the silence of the night.

It's dark and lonely in the woods, and no one knows what's hidden inside.

On the road leading to the train station, all of a sudden, the trees on both sides trembled!

Sassy –

The wind rises, the knife falls!

Only a few sounds of bodies falling to the ground were heard, and the four Jinyi guards with high martial arts had already lost their lives before they could notice the movement.

I don't know who took their lives until they die!

"We are waiting to welcome the return of the Holy One!"

A familiar voice came from outside the carriage.

I haven't seen him for ten years, and Zhu Yunxi knows that it is the voice of his uncle's subordinate, Shura.

The five major killers in the dark web, Tiangang, Disha, Shura, Impermanence, and Tengu, among them, Disha died in Huangshan ten years ago, and the rest of the four are still there.

These four people's martial arts are so strong that they almost even caught Li Xiao's way.

Ten years ago, after they failed to assassinate Li Xiao, they immediately rescued Lan Yu's son Lan Bin, embraced the lord, and hid in Yunnan and other places.

Eight years ago, Tiangang led people to rob the Huanggang transported from Beiping to Nanjing, and obtained a large amount of money, and they have been hiding in Yunnan and other places to plan for revival.

can be revived, with Lan Bin is not enough, they must have the blood of the Zhu family to succeed.

Only Zhu Yunxi, although he was erased, he is also a canonized emperor!

Therefore, Lan Bin ordered people to keep an eye on Nanjing City all the time.

Shura stayed in this Nanjing city for ten years.

I didn't expect to wait for Zhu Yunxi's release from prison.

Immediately gather your men and come and rob them.

Zhu Yunxi walked out of the carriage, and what caught his eye was several Jinyi guards and Shura himself who were lying in a pool of blood, as well as several black-clothed people.

He was slightly stunned, this was something he never expected.

"Shura, didn't you expect that you have been secretly hiding in Nanjing City for ten years, who is your current lord?" Zhu Yunxi said in a flat tone.

Hearing this, Shura was slightly surprised, he thought that this Zhu Yunxi had been in the heavenly prison for ten years, and he was not stupid, but he didn't expect to say a word.

"Yes, Lord Lan Bin told me to wait in Nanjing City, how do you know?"

Shura didn't finish speaking, but saw Zhu Yunxi smiled and said: "It's rare, ten years later, cousin Lan Bin still remembers that I just got out of prison, and someone came to rob me, such a secret news, not waiting for it, how can it be so timely." ”

"Holy."

Shura's heart was tumbling.

In the past ten years, Zhu Yunxi seems to have changed as a person, how not to be surprised!

"Holy Lord, please follow us and wait for us, and quickly return to Yunnan to make peace with the Lord and plot great things." Shura didn't think much about it, and it was better to leave immediately for now.

Zhu Yunxi's mind flowed, and now that he suddenly disappeared, he was afraid that it would not be conducive to major events.

He looked at Shura and said in his heart, these people are loyal, although they are not used for themselves, but they are also loyal to Lan Bin, the son of Lan Yu.

Now he has the same purpose as Lan Bin, he wants to take revenge.

Then these people are their best arms before this!!

"Leave?"

Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly, and said lightly: "The whole world is not the king's land, and now that I have suddenly disappeared, with my fourth uncle's temperament, will I give up?" ”

"Have you forgotten who caused you to do this?"

Shura's eyes lit up and said, "Don't leave? Are you going to go to the capital to live like Zhu Yunwen? ”

"Hmph, do you think that if I go back to Yunnan with you, I will be able to take back the world?"

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "Although I have been in the prison for ten years, I don't know the situation outside, presumably ten years have passed, and I am afraid that the world has already been an iron bucket, yes or no?" ”

Shura nodded and said: "That's right, if there is an iron bucket today, there is no barrier between the Emperor Taishang and the Holy Emperor, and there is also the reform of Li Xiao, the national teacher of the Ming Dynasty, the national strength is thriving, and the country is rich and the people are safe."

Zhu Yunxi said: "In such a world, do you think that with me and Lan Bin, you can subvert it?" ”

Shura thought about it and shook his head helplessly: "It's difficult!" ”

He continued: "It's hard, don't you want to do it?" ”

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said: "Ten years of prison, who understands my suffering, how can this hatred not be repaid?" How can you not avenge your uncle's blood feud? ”

Shura wondered, "Then what do you mean."

Zhu Yunxi looked at a few black-clothed people beside Shura and said, "Are these people reliable?" ”

Shura said: "Confidant." ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded, looked at the corpse of the Jinyi Guard on the ground, and said, "These people are all Jinyi Guards from Nanjing, accompany them and send me to the capital." In order to prevent the matter from being revealed, when you come back, it is up to you to find a way to create an accident, so that the corpses of these 'brocade guards' will die on the way back, and will not be detected by the executioner.

"Nature is fine"

As a top killer, Shura can naturally change the time of death of the corpse, but he wonders why this Zhu Yunxi still wants to return to the capital

His eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at Zhu Yunxi and said, "Holy Lord, what do you mean?"

He didn't say the words "inside and outside".

"Hehe, that's right, the enemy is in the light, I am in the dark, knowing myself and knowing that the other side can not be defeated in a hundred battles." Zhu Yunxi looked up at the sky and muttered, "I should go to the capital too. I'm going to meet that Ming National Teacher."

Shura was slightly stunned, and his heart was shocked.

This Zhu Yunxi seems to be really different, bold and knowledgeable.

Perhaps, with his joining, maybe the great cause of the Lord can really be accomplished!

"Good!"

Shura nodded and said, "Listen to the Holy Lord's orders." ”

"You can also enter Beijing with me, in the capital, I need help."

Zhu Yunxi said with a smile.

"Yes." Shura arched his hand and said: "Holy Lord, the Lord just wants to nominate you to return to the throne and let the Lan family rise again, and if we are loyal to the Lord, we will be loyal to you!" ”

"Good!" Zhu Yunxi laughed and said, "With my cousin and I working together, with you here, why worry about big things."

When he had finished speaking, he returned to the carriage.

Outside the carriage, these black-clothed men soon disguised themselves as brocade guards.

continued to escort Zhu Yunxi into Beijing

Yongle Mansion.

Li Xiao is sitting at his desk, incarnated as a writer, and is giving out the examination questions for the imperial examination.

In the half month since he became a Confucian saint, the news has spread widely.

Many students from other places don't believe it, and scholars come to the capital for verification.

However, with the explanation of Kong Maoxue, a great Confucian apprentice, before and after the saddle, gradually, everyone accepted this reality, and the Confucian Temple was also under construction.

Li Xiao also proposed to let Mencius return to the Confucian Temple.

At the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang moved Mencius out of the Confucian Temple with a word, which made the people of the world dissatisfied.

And Li Xiao just said a word, and Zhu Yuanzhang immediately agreed.

What are you kidding, I almost went to the west, and the little brother turned things around with a pill, can you disagree with this little request?

Agree, strongly agree!

As a result, this Mencius returned to the Confucian Temple, showing the extraordinary bearing of contemporary Confucianism!

Li Xiao operated like this.

This is a time when people's favorability towards Li Xiao has risen gradually.

This matter of reform of the imperial examination is naturally a matter of course, and from top to bottom, no one will oppose it anymore.

However, how to reform was discussed for several days in the morning.

In the end, it was decided to reform slowly so as not to push too hard.

And also take care of the current Confucian students.

When this model matures, it will be further overhauled.

Li Xiao felt that this method was advisable, so he agreed.

Eventually, the imperial examination became a semi-imperial examination, a semi-national examination model.

The prefectural and township examinations of the imperial examination remain unchanged.

But the examination has changed, and it has become a national examination.

In other words, contemporary readers can still maintain some advantages and participate in the national examination for the next five consecutive years as a talent.

Enjoy the same treatment as the national examination that can only be taken by graduates of Peking High School.

It's a lot of kindness, but if you haven't been admitted after five years, there's no way

After announcing the world, these students also gladly accepted it, and even had some surprises!

Because they found that the acceptance rate of the national examination has increased much compared with the previous Jinshi in the imperial examination!

At present, the national examination is based on the current shortage of officials across the country, and then the admission is carried out according to the lack of places.

For example, if there is a shortage of a thousand officials across the country.

Then in this national examination, 1,000 people will be admitted.

In the past, when I was in the imperial examination, I became the thousandth, and I could only think about it.

But now it's very different.

Even if you get the thousandth place in the exam, you can mix up an official.

It's just a matter of big officials and small officials.

The worst official is the dormitory staff in the dormitory, and the official follows the thirteen grades.

That's right, the worst official in the past was Jiupin, known as the Jiupin Sesame Official.

But now, after Zhu Yuanzhang came back to life, he was in good spirits, and according to Li Xiao's idea, he asked Zhu Di to directly cancel the officials, and now all the officials have become officials.

Even the yamen who beat the watchman are now officials who have become watchmen.

Known as the thirteen-grade sesame official

The existing officials are glad because they have changed from officials to officials.

From not entering the stream, it has become eating imperial food.

But for the current officials, they are somewhat reluctant.

Because many of these officials are very strong in business, they will climb on their heads in the future.

In addition, this official will not be able to come in by virtue of his relationship in the future.

The position of an official can be passed on to future generations, and it can also be operated by relationships.

But according to Li Xiao's practice, it is almost a must to take the test every time you enter.

This also touched the interests of many people, and many people thought about opposing it, but what kind of temper did Zhu Yuanzhang have, he couldn't allow them to oppose it, and the matter was directly settled.

The only drawback of abolishing the distinction between officials is that so many officials suddenly appeared, and the expenses of the imperial court were too large.

Xia Yuanji of the household department was very worried, and hurriedly opposed, and after several discussions, it became a sub-district implementation, starting from the city of Nanjing, and gradually promoting, fortunately, the treasury is relatively full of silver, and it can still be supported.

But even if it is only promoted in Nanjing, there are still many vacancies.

And this time the national examination was announced, and there were 2,000 positions!

Most of these positions come from vacancies in the head of the dormitory and the dormitory staff in Nanjing.

This can make those scholars happy, this is simply the first wave of dividends of the reform, obviously there are so many admission places for this first national examination.

If you still can't pass the test, it's better to go to herd cattle as soon as possible.

They changed from the original loss to ecstasy, and began to write articles to praise Li Xiao, saying that they didn't understand the good intentions of the national teacher before.

In the past, when the imperial examination was held, only a few thousand people were selected for a hundred.

If you don't pass the Jinshi exam, you can only take the exam again next year.

It's different now.

2,000 positions means that it doesn't matter if you do poorly.

Even if it's the head of the dormitory, it's not good.

At least you can eat the emperor's food and not starve to death.

And I heard that the current officials are much better treated than before.

However, for such a good reader, the content of the exam cannot only be tested for Confucianism, and it has to be followed by Li Xiao's meaning.

They did not dare to continue arguing.

I can only go to the latest new national examination training class in Peking to go crazy for tutoring.

Recently, the national examination training class in Beiping, the business can be said to be very good, those who open the training class, are some students who graduated from Beiping high school, and they have found business opportunities.

One of them is called the New Oriental Training Course, which is particularly hot.

And Li Xiao became the author of this first national examination.

At this time, under the light, Li Xiao was picking up the lamp.

"Husband, you have worked hard"

Zhu Ningyun was very distressed, brought tea and put it on the table, rubbed Li Xiao's shoulder, and said softly.

"It's not hard." Li Xiao smiled slightly: "Serve the people." ”

"I really didn't expect that this imperial examination reform will be much smoother later."

Zhu Ningyun's breath is like an orchid, her fingers like green onions, and her temples are gentle, allowing her husband to soothe her nerves.

At this time, a pleasant system prompt sound sounded in Li Xiao's ears.

【Ding! You have succeeded in the reform of the imperial examination. When Ning Yun has +0.1 opinion of you, the current opinion is 99.9. Please keep improving. When you reach 100 friendship, you will receive a final package. 】

Li Xiao was slightly stunned, and then ecstatic.

The original opinion rating was 99.7.

After becoming a Confucian saint last time, it increased by 0.1 to 99.8.

Unexpectedly, after the reform of the imperial examination this time, another 0.1 was added.

In other words, it only needs to be successful in the next reform, and it will be able to reach 100!!

But then, the system's prompt sounded, pouring a basin of cold water on Li Xiao.

【Ding! Congratulations on your 99.9 opinion rating, and you are still 0.1 short of receiving the final reward! 】

【Ding! Your opinion has reached 99.9 and you can't continue to increase it, collect 10 Sweet Crit Points to get 0.1 opinion. 】

Li Xiao: "????? ”

The system obviously sensed Li Xiao's doubts, and then reminded:

[The sublime elements of love are divided into: people, society and nature. 】

[Dear host, you have reached the undying love, and presented the prosperous world to your lover, completing the human and social elements. But the conquest of nature is still lacking. 】

[Current Conquest Progress 0/10: Climbing Mount Everest, Shangri-La Arcadia, Bolivian Sky Realm, Icelandic Aurora. 】

[When you and your lover go to conquer a beautiful beauty of nature together, you will get a love crit point, collect ten love crit points, you will unlock 0.1 favorability—]

The last "oh" is so long that it feels like a mockery

Li Xiao felt that he had ten thousand grass and mud horses galloping in his heart.

This system is here to play me, right?

However, Li Xiao looked at the conquest sites above.

It seems to be a very romantic thing to be able to conquer these places with Ning Yun and feel the magic and magnificence of nature.

"Husband, what are you thinking?"

Zhu Ningyun saw that Li Xiao had been in a daze, so he sat down next to him gently.

"Nothing."

Li Xiao came back to his senses, looked at Zhu Ningyun gently, and said, "Ningyun, when we're done with this while, let's put down what we're doing and go out together, right?" ”

Although it is said that you want to complete the task of the system, you can go out to play, which is also something that couples should do, and there is no conflict.

"Huh?" Zhu Ningyun was slightly overjoyed and said, "Okay, I also think that you are too tired and need to relax and relax, so I am naturally willing to accompany my husband." ”

"I mean, let's go wild." Li Xiao explained: "Conquer the highest mountain and cross the farthest sea."

"Okay" Zhu Ningyun smiled slightly, her eyebrows were like spring, and she smiled slightly: "I think it's good." I still miss the excitement of riding a roller coaster with my husband that day, conquering the mountains and crossing the oceans, it's fun to think about, so it's fun! ”

Li Xiao smiled, gently scratched Zhu Ningyun's nose, and kissed it, "Madam is so good, then it's decided."

Heart, fortunately, there is a tide buff, with an extraordinary physique, it is not a problem to conquer these places, can you be worse than Bei Ye?

Besides, there is also a system space to extract props constantly.

You can go anywhere, there will be no danger.

After being kissed, Zhu Ningyunqiao's face was slightly red, and she said, "Husband, let's get the question out quickly, let's rest early."

As she spoke, she looked curiously at the question on Li Xiao's table.

After seeing it clearly, he was surprised: "Husband, this question is too difficult."

This is an arithmetic problem, the classic problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage, chickens and rabbits in the same cage is one of the famous mathematical problems in ancient China, in fact, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period "Sun Tzu Sutra" has existed.

However, the imperial examination only relied on Confucianism, and Li Xiao has now moved these questions to the national examination.

Li Xiao thought, if he can't even do some basic arithmetic problems, can he do things well as an official?

"Today there are chickens and rabbits in the same cage, there are thirty-five heads on the top, and ninety-four feet on the bottom, ask the chickens and rabbits how much they are"

Zhu Ningyun snapped her fingers, and after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't think of it, so she looked at Li Xiao and said, "Husband, if you come up with such a topic, those Confucian students must not scratch their heads." ”

Li Xiao smiled, just about to say something.

Li Wuwu didn't know where to get out, wearing a skirt, his skin could be broken by blowing, and his willow eyebrows were bent, and he had already seen a beautiful embryo for the first time when he was only six years old.

He walked up to Zhu Ningyun and said with a smile: "Mother, if you can't do such a simple topic, then what kind of official is it, it's better to go home and herd cattle earlier." ”

"You girl." Zhu Ningyun said lightly: "It seems that you will do what you say." ”

Li Wuwu said proudly: "Of course my daughter will." ”

Zhu Ningyun said dumbly: "Let's hear it." ”

Li Wuwu said: "There are twelve rabbits and twenty-three chickens. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Ningyun silently calculated in his heart that the rabbit's feet and the chicken's feet could really match each other.

She was surprised: "Worry-free, how did you calculate it?" ”

"Let the rabbit and the chicken lift both feet at the same time, so that the feet in the cage are reduced, and the total number of heads is multiplied by two. Since the chicken only has 2 legs, there are only two legs left in the cage for the rabbit, and then divide by two to get the number of rabbits. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Ningyun thought about it carefully, and then her eyes lit up, "Hey, it's really like this, it's really ingenious." ”

She looked at Li Xiao and said, "You taught it, right?" ”

"Daddy didn't have time to teach me this."

Li Wuwu was a little ghost and said, "Mother. These are all taught in elementary schools, and children can do it, so don't those who claim to be readers? ”

Because Li Wuwu is too smart, he has jumped several grades in a row, and he has already gone to school with a ten-year-old child.

Li Xiao laughed and said, "Look, six-year-old children can, and those who read books won't even be as good as children, right?" ”

"You're smart."

Zhu Ningyun glanced at Li Xiao, and then pulled Li Wuwu out, "Okay, worry-free, we won't bother your father, it's getting late, mother coaxes you to sleep."

"Mother, I'm not a child. No need to coax."

"You're not a kid what's that. I can't grow tall when I sleep late, and I won't be beautiful in the future, no one wants it."

"I'm not going to get married."

The sound faded away.

Li Xiao couldn't help but smile when he saw the intimate appearance of the mother and daughter.

Then came the question.

In the new national examination, in addition to such arithmetic, there are also common sense, Confucianism, and policy theory.

Li Xiao thought about it for a while, and came up with a question in the strategy, a very pragmatic one.

[If you are the head of a village, the village is very dilapidated and poor; The villagers are ignorant and ignorant. In the face of such a situation, how can you take the villagers out of the current predicament and live a life of abundant food and clothing? Please write an essay on this topic. 】

In this national examination, most of the positions recruited are in the dormitory. Li Xiao feels that only when he can answer such a question and answer a reason can he be regarded as a talented person

Before you know it, it's dark.

Li Xiao got up, washed up, went back to the bedroom, and found that Ning Yun was sleeping with her eyes closed, but Li Xiao sensed that she was not asleep through telepathy.

This little girl is waiting for me

"Madam, why did you sleep so early lately, and you haven't done business yet?"

Li Xiao smiled and got into the bed.

Zhu Ningyun really opened her eyes and was pretending to sleep, but her appearance was very strange, not as intimate as before.

Li Xiao was puzzled: "Madam, what's wrong?" I feel like you haven't taken the initiative lately, is my husband and my charm declining? ”

Zhu Ningyun hesitated, "No. It's just"

Li Xiao said: "Say it quickly, there can't be secrets." ”

Zhu Ningyun had no choice but to say: "That's it. Husband, you are now a Confucian saint, and I always feel that it is a bit insulting to a saint to say something like a saint."

Li Xiao smiled evilly and wrapped the quilt: "Saints are also human beings. It's a human being, come on, don't you think it's more exciting?"

After Zhu Ningyun felt the tenderness, she blushed and said, "Husband, you are so bad."

A thousand words are all in one word.

It was another wonderful night
