Chapter 132: The Great Ceremony of the State
The three of Meng Xing retired and went out of the hunting ground palace at the northern foothills, and Liu Qingsong was in a very complicated mood.
Today, he was humiliated by Meng Xing, and because of his troubles, he was forced to stand in front of the emperor, and he originally hated Meng Xing.
But I didn't expect that the three of them were opposed to changing "nothing" to "nothing", and from the overall situation, the three were allies.
Liu Qingsong didn't know what to say to Meng Xing, so he arched his hand at him, said goodbye and left.
Lu Tiansheng looked at Meng Xing, and he seemed to be smiling:
"Congratulations to Brother Meng for winning the martial champion, will you go back and try?"
"Nature."
"I thought that when the emperor asked you about your political views today, you would say some ambiguous things like the last time you answered me, but I didn't expect it to be so direct. If you oppose the emperor today, I'm afraid you will have a hard time moving forward. β
"Aren't you against it too?"
"We soldiers don't need to please anyone when we do things." Lu Tiansheng smiled: "There are always some preferential treatments for the work of hard work." β
In the past, there were 6,000 people to participate in the scientific examination, and in the period of Emperor Taishang, only 4,000 people came to the lowest examination.
"Thank you, sir, I didn't know you were so kind to you......"
Wang Junyan said: "I will find a way to find out his details." β
During the banquet, representatives of many border armies came to talk to Meng Xing and ask about their intentions, as long as Meng Xing nodded and went to any border army, all the formalities of the military department were handled by charge d'affaires and were unimpeded.
Confucianism is the most able to suppress the subordinates, as long as there is a righteous name, the subordinate has the power of the world, it is a dragon and a tiger has to lie down.
Time is in a hurry, on the ninth day of the first month of March, the imperial court's examination officially kicked off on this day.
Give the money and take it, this is definitely going to go.
This banquet is paid for by the imperial court, it is a veritable public money to eat and drink, the new Jinshi of the list, participate in the banquet, there is food and drink, the Jinshi reward millions, 500 wine.
"Thank you."
Wang Junyan looked at Xu Xian and said, "I still have some friendship with this person, and I just happened to be a hypocritical snake with him to find out his origin." β
Even the secretary of the military department came to summon Meng Xing, although he was put on the table by Meng Xing during the palace test, but the secretary of the military department was not only not annoyed, but became more and more optimistic about Meng Xing.
Hearing that Meng Xing insisted on going to the test, the secretary of the military department stroked his beard and smiled:
"But now he has found another way and passed the martial arts championship, which is amazing! Amazing! This person is really incredible, he got out of the encirclement at once! Even if he can't try, he can find a way out of the military department, and the military department, we can't reach into it now. β
"See you at the martial arts banquet."
Wang Junyan listened to their righteous indignation at Meng Xing and discussed how to say that he was put to death, but there was a different kind of emotion in his heart.
"With such preferential treatment for you, won't you come?"
"Yes, you can't be more merciful to this person. The head of the family also has a lot of opinions about him. β
Everyone Zhao asked, "What can Miss Junyan do?" β
The military department Shangshu said: "The emperor summoned the three of you and asked you what you said, I know how you answered, you oppose changing 'nothing' to 'none', I appreciate it, and among the six departments, only the military department is the most suitable for you, so that you are like a fish in water, you do it well." β
The Ministry of Rites, the current Ministry of Rites is Zhao Shurong Zhao everyone, everyone's festival is deep, there is no need to go to the Ministry of Rites to wear small shoes.
This is the magnificent avenue.
Zhao everyone heard him say this, and knew that women have some advantages in doing many things, and Wang Junyan is willing, which is very good:
"Hey, you kid...... In this way, Wu Zhuangyuan always has some preferential treatment, and then the official positions you can hold will be laid out and you can choose. β
The Ministry of Engineering is not the right major.
Xu Xian also knows the priorities, and at present, the imperial examination is the foundation, and the promotion of Confucianism is the foundation of everything.
More than 13,000 people from all over the country, provinces, prefectures, counties, and counties gathered in Changjing to participate in the examination.
Meng Xing also came out of the Yuwang Mansion, and together with Qian Qianyi, Wen Ting, Wang Junzhi and others, he was escorted by the soldiers of the Yuwang Mansion and went straight to the Gongyuan!
Some of the inside stories of the actual combat assessment in the northern foothills of the mountain range have also been known to them.
Wang Junyan looked at Xu Xian and said: "Now Meng Xing has only exposed his martial arts cultivation, I'm afraid there are still some secrets that are not known, and we have suffered many losses from him, just because we don't know enough about this person." β
"Throughout the ages, many people have peerless poetic talents, but their careers have always been difficult, just like Li Qingyun, who has never done anything in his career in his life."
Meng Xing laughed: "We players, take every game seriously, and don't pay much attention to the rest." β
"Meng Xing has realized that the liberal arts examination is hopeless, so he has found another way out in the martial arts examination, although this is a way, but this person has actually lost his heart, and he is likely to fail in this subject."
"Life is like a play, and drama is like life."
"......" Meng Xing didn't expect him to be so powerful, and his heart moved: "My lord, can I choose what official to confer?" β
As the champion of the new science and martial arts, Meng Xing was like a star holding the moon, and was hugged to the place where the martial arts banquet was held.
"You see, the world is like chess, who moves it? In the game, who is not a pawn, and who is not a player? β
The military department is one of the best choices.
"Meng Xing changed his mind to normalcy and took a step ahead of us, but these are nothing, there is still room for reconciliation, but this time Meng Xing openly opposed me in front of the emperor to change 'nothing' to 'nothing', which is a complete denial of our political opinions, and an endless hatred."
And just when Meng Xing was enjoying the martial arts banquet, all over Changjing, the news about Meng Xing's martial arts champion in the examination had already spread.
Shouting, shouting, neighing horses, rolling wheels, a pair of slaughtering soldiers, maintaining order.
These are strong opponents, and if he doesn't give it his all, he's likely to capsize in the gutter.
At the gate of the hunting ground at the northern foothills, Wu Ji, Wang Dong and others were still waiting for Meng Xing, first congratulating him on winning the martial arts championship, and then inviting Meng Xing to go to the martial arts banquet together.
The new emperor ascended the throne, the court opened a new situation, the implementation of the new policy, no longer the same lifeless as before, many of the previous dormant people have seen the opportunity, so take the opportunity to go out of the mountain, want to show their ambitions, this moment of competition is also unprecedentedly fierce.
Xu Xian was noncommittal.
The city gates of Changjing were also opened in advance, and those who stayed outside the city were allowed to enter the city.
The banquet held after the test list of the martial arts examination hall is the "martial arts banquet" held by the military department, the martial arts hall examination is different from the martial arts township test, the scale of the martial arts banquet is much more magnificent than the eagle Yang banquet, the pomp is huge, the gathering of heroes, and the grand occasion is unprecedented.
The water is too deep, and it is also the hardest hit area of the Qinghe Party and the Conservative Party.
These people are all talented, and the support behind them is huge, especially the Legalist Lu Yu, who has received strong support from the Qinghe Party, and this person is already the guest of honor of Zhongshu Ling Gaojin, and he has a great voice, and he also wants to compete for the top three.
In Zhao's house, the atmosphere was very depressing, and Xu Xian said coldly:
Wang Junyan was disappointed again, but compared to before, she felt that this time was not so uncomfortable.
She said: "Meng Xing's performance in the martial arts exam was unexpected, he bravely crowned the three armies, that is, the people of the transcendent realm sneaked attack, and he was also retreated by him, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with him with ordinary methods." β
"Oh......" Lu Tiansheng nodded: "No matter what family Brother Meng is, as long as he opposes Confucianism, we are good friends." First of all, congratulations to the Meng Brotherhood for taking the high school exam! β
Xu Xian looked at her and stopped talking, but in the end he didn't object.
After speaking, Lu Tiansheng left first.
"This person is in the limelight at the Jia Ting Poetry Conference, and another poem has been included in the textbooks of the Department of Academic Affairs, we can still bear this matter, no matter how famous he is, but if he can't pass the Jinshi exam, everything is nothing."
"What Miss Junyan said makes sense, knowing yourself and knowing your opponent is the only way to win all battles, but how do we find out the details of him?"
This conversation was very pleasant, and Meng Xing knew that he now clearly opposed the change of "nothing" to "nothing" by doing nothing, which must have greatly offended some people.
"Originally, we also had to deal with Meng Xing in this way, no matter how good his poetry is, as long as he is chased and intercepted in the examination, making it difficult for him to pass, no matter how capable he is."
In the Zhao family's mansion, Xu Xian, Confucianism and Wang Junyan were also listed, discussing Meng Xing.
"Players? What kind of family is it, and which sage is it served? Lu Tiansheng said: "I have never heard of it. β
Now that the military department has taken over, this trip can be regarded as a success.
The Criminal Department is the territory of the Legalists, and Meng Xing is one of the alternatives.
"Yes."
On this day, when it was still in the third watch, the sky was dark, and the five fingers could not be seen, and the Changjing City was already full of people, with torches and lanterns everywhere, and people came and went.
The banquet set up after the trial list of Wuke Township is the Eagle Yang Banquet, the so-called "Eagle Yang", which is as powerful as the eagle's flying, taken from the sentence of "Wei Shi Shangfu, Shi Wei Ying Yang", Meng Xing is from Wenju people, and this banquet has not been attended.
This trip to Meng Xing to participate in the martial arts examination was originally an alternative to opening up the military department and opening up a path for himself.
"Yes."
Zhao Dajia analyzed:
Everyone Zhao nodded and said to Xu Xian:
In this imperial examination, there are many powerful people in addition to Meng Xing, such as Li Yu of Taoism, Lu Tiansheng of soldiers, and Gao De of Shangyang County......
"It doesn't matter, after the examination, all Wen Jinshi also need to study in the Sixth Department, you can come to my military department to study, and then you will be awarded the position of military attachΓ©, so that you can study and practice at the same time."
After the results of the imperial examination were announced, the new Jinshi had to participate in various ceremonial and ceremonial activities, such as Linxuan roll call, courting the emperor, etc., as well as various banquets between the Jinshi in the same year, but the most famous was the "Four Banquets of the Imperial Examination" - Luming Banquet, Qionglin Banquet, Eagle Yang Banquet, and Huiwu Banquet.
Ministry ...... It is the place where the struggle between the Qinghe Party and the Conservative Party is the most intense, and Meng Xing not only offended the Conservative Party this time, but also cut off with the Qinghe Party.
"I've never heard of a player among the hundred, but it sounds a bit like a branch of Taoism." Lu Tiansheng searched his intestines and scraped his stomach and said, "Brother Meng is not coaxing me? β
Meng Xing beat him by surprise, beat the emperor by surprise, and won the martial champion, this is the magic of the art of war, how can he not appreciate it?
"It's the best."
The way of using soldiers lies in the ever-changing and unexpected.
"That being the case, Xu Xian, you can prepare for the exam with peace of mind, the liberal arts examination is the real national ceremony, and the martial arts examination cannot be compared. As long as you get the title of Wen, our plan can be carried out as soon as possible, and when Confucianism becomes the orthodoxy of the imperial court, as long as Meng Xing is still in the bureau, he can only let us handle any ability. β
