Chapter 146: The Elector

When everyone at the table saw Yu Kangzhi's actions, they all looked at each other, this ...... Could it be that the translated manuscript is not visible?

Yang Ying was in a hurry and stood up involuntarily.

An Youting's eyes immediately moved to him, and he said in a deep voice: "Sit down." ”

Yang Ying's body stiffened slightly, and with an oh sound, she lowered her head and sat down honestly.

But after sitting down, the more she thought about it, the more unconvinced she became, gritted her teeth, raised her head, and said, "But ......"

An Youting said calmly: "The matter of inquiry, all the scholars have their own decisions, as martial artists of the capital, except for the government inquiry, we can ask one or two, and everything else is not allowed to interfere, this is also what your father insisted, not to mention, you don't have any serious confidence in your husband at all?"

Yang Ying was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up, and she looked at the field urgently.

At this time, someone in the table asked, "Old Yu, why did you tear up the text that Zhang Shijiao translated?"

Xu Wenyue and the other three couldn't help but look over with concern at this time.

If Zhang Yu didn't pass the "inquiry", then if he still had to choose a "scholar" this time, it would definitely be a choice from the three of them.

But the moral qualities they have cultivated over a long period of time are a reminder that this is not right.

If it is too utilitarian, then how can it be called a scholar, and how can it be a "scholar"?

Therefore, the emotions that emerged in their hearts at this time were both a little expectation and a lot of shame.

Shang Xueling was also a little strange, he had managed to understand Zhang Yu before, and knew that the latter's mastery of the ancient writing and language on the land was quite level, otherwise he would not have taken out these secret texts, even if Zhang Yu's translation was not good, it would not be to the point of tearing it up on the spot.

Yu Kangzhi was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "The reason why I tore up the documents translated by Zhang Shijiao is not that he translated them badly, but that he translated them too well, not only did he translate the principles and meanings contained in these secret texts, but also presented the original fanatical state of mind of the person who wrote it on the paper, and the words of dreams lingered in my ears!"

Speaking of this, he sighed, "If this translation is seen by ordinary people, then there will be people who will be bewitched by it and become one of the believers of the other gods." ”

The people present listened to his explanation, and then it was suddenly dawned.

Shang Xueling secretly screamed in his heart that it was a pity, if there was no accident, the secret text translated by Zhang Yu was exactly what he needed, but it was not impossible to get it......

He couldn't help but wonder.

Yu Kangzhi picked up Shang Xueling's translation book at this time, and said: "Shang Xueling's translation book is rigid, the sentences are rigid, the sentences are stiff, straightforward, and there is no interest at all, but it is also roughly a translation of the meaning, and the deviation is not large, but compared with the two, Master Zhang's teaching skills are superior." ”

Shang Xueling smiled, but he didn't have much sense of defeat and loss, he and Zhang Yuben had no personal grudges, and he was not a person who was chosen by the soldiers, but he just wanted to take the opportunity to pick up a bargain, whether he lost or won, it didn't matter.

At this time, Gong Guo said: "But Yu Gong, if you tear up the translation of Master Zhang, there will be no evidence left in the record, and someone will ask in the future, how should you distinguish today's judgment?"

The people present all nodded.

There is no document, and it is all up to Kangzhi to say the authenticity of the case, which is extremely inappropriate. Even if Yu Kangzhi's character is high, it is useless, you can convince the people here, but you can't convince everyone, let alone convince the people who come after.

And this is also extremely unfair to Zhang Yu himself. The absence of the document means that he has nothing to prove for himself, and anyone can doubt him in the future.

Yu Kangzhi already had a draft of this, and he said: "It's okay, just let Zhang Shijiao make another supplement, you can slightly reduce the sentences that praise the other gods, and you don't need to be precise, just roughly translate the original meaning." ”

Yu Gong said at this time: "This is also possible, although the inquiry is the examination of the school, but there are some things that can not be without scruples, the alien god is the enemy of my capital to protect the house, and now it is still wandering outside the Honghe Pass, since this article involves the alien god, how cautious is not to exaggerate." ”

Yu Kangzhi looked at Zhang Yudao and said, "Then please ask Master Zhang to repeat the book." ”

Zhang Yu nodded, he took another piece of paper, thought for a while, picked up the pen, and soon wrote another translation, this time blurring some of the deep metaphors about the alien gods, and deliberately weakening the part of the secret text about the expression of emotions and intentions.

After finishing the writing, the servant came over and took the paper away, lowered his head, raised his hands and presented it to Yu Kangzhi, who took it and looked at it carefully, his expression was slightly relaxed, and said, "That's okay." ”

He didn't feel guilty at this time, even if Zhang Yu removed a lot of things in it, the words and sentences were still very appropriate, which could make people understand the content clearly and comfortably, in comparison, Shang Xueling's translation was boring and dull, and people had no desire to take a second look.

After reading it, he said in a deep voice: "Seal it." He paused, "Both copies are sealed." ”

When everyone heard his words, they knew that Zhang Yu's inquiry had passed smoothly.

However, among the three inquiries, the academic inquiry is actually the easiest to pass.

Because the person who can become the chosen person is himself a person who stands out among many peers, and knowledge and talent are their most fundamental things, if there is something lacking here, it is impossible to be recommended by the school palace.

And next, it will be the government inquiry.

At this time, everyone looked at the top of the steps, and they paid special attention to the officials of the various government offices.

Just now, Xu Wenyue and the other three people came forward to inquire about the government affairs by the three government officials in advance, but I don't know who will come forward this time?

On the seat, at this moment, someone walked in front of Liu Feng, the acting officer, whispered a few times beside him, he groaned for a while, and then nodded, as if he agreed with something.

After a while, I saw an elegant man in his forties, with a clear beard on his chin, standing up, and everyone recognized it at a glance, this was Xiao Qingzhan, the head of the Sihu Office.

Xiao Qingzhan first saluted Zhang Yu and said, "Dao: "Master Zhang, you have served as a counselor in the office of the secretary, but I have not had a word of advice in the more than a month that you have been in the office?"

Zhang Yu said calmly: "Of course, I served as a counselor by Jiang Zhi's side at that time, but in fact, I received news at that time that someone wanted to assassinate, so I was entrusted by the Xuanfu to support Jiang Zhi for a period of time. ”

Xiao Qingzhan nodded and arched his hand: "Thank you Master Zhang for clarifying your doubts." After saying that, he didn't ask any more questions, and sat back down.

Among the people present, the eyes of some people became incomprehensible, because it was not difficult for them to see that Xiao Qingzhan asked this question, on the surface, it seemed that he was accusing Zhang Yu of not doing anything, but in fact, he was helping him.

Because if you want to become a "scholar", one of the most important conditions is virtue.

When Zhang Yu was in the Sihu Office, he could clearly recognize his own defects and shortcomings, and only do his own thing, but never interfere with what he didn't understand, which not only did not need to be criticized, but was worthy of praise.

However, there are also people who know the inside story, thinking about the past between Zhang Yu and Xiao, and also understanding Xiao Qingzhan's approach.

As an elder brother, you always have to help your younger brother.

What Xiao Qingshu admired most before his death was Zhang Yu, hoping that Zhang Yu could become a man of Tianxia, and Xiao Qingzhan, as his brother, naturally wanted to help his younger brother fulfill this unfulfilled wish as much as possible, so that he could rest in peace under Jiuquan.

After Xiao Qingzhan sat down, Liu Fengquan looked left and right, and also said loudly: "Zhang Shijiao once eliminated a military disaster in the south, and he has made great contributions to the capital to protect the mansion. ”

The reason why he mentioned this matter, in addition to conforming to the will of the public, and pushing Zhang Yu to help, is also because of his credit.

At that time, it was precisely because he cooperated with the capital in time that he transferred a large number of ordnance materials to various towns, and coordinated the transfer of all parties, so that the 30,000 army could quickly appear in front of the Strongclaw tribe, and with internal and external cooperation, the crisis was successfully resolved.

It was on this basis that he was able to establish his initial prestige within the Authority, and now every time he thinks about it, he is still satisfied with his decision.

But just after he finished speaking, he felt that there was silence in the field, and then he saw Du Wei An Youting standing up.

An Youting stood there, his tall and healthy physique suddenly attracted everyone's attention, and made people feel a sense of oppression. In a sense, he represents the Grand Governor, and he also has the qualifications to inquire about the government.

Yang Ying looked at her uncle very nervously.

An Youting looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Zhang Shenzhi, if I invite you to join the Governor's Mansion as a curtain official on behalf of the Metropolitan Governor, are you willing?"

Zhang Yu didn't hesitate for a moment, and replied decisively: "I don't want to!"

He is a cultivator, and he will not personally participate in the political affairs of intrigue.

And the Xuanfu behind him, from the perspective of the Tianxia ritual system, was originally above the Duhu Mansion, and what he wanted to do was to let the Eastern Court return to Tianxia, rather than to maintain the current pattern.

He was not afraid of losing the opportunity to be elected because of his rejection of An Youting, because An Youting inherited the style of Yang Xuan, the previous governor of the capital, and devoted himself to maintaining the balance of the capital protectorate, strictly abiding by the bottom line of his military generals, and never interfering in affairs.

This person will never do things according to his own likes and dislikes, but will only consider the interests of the entire Metropolitan Protectorate.

An Youting faced his answer, without any emotion, and said calmly: "I know." After saying that, he sat down again, and the faint sense of oppression in the field suddenly disappeared.

Yang Ying patted her chest and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, a scribe came up to Zhang Yu and asked him, so he nodded and followed him to a seat.

Xu Wenyue and the other three electors were all sitting nearby, and when they saw him coming, the three of them all stood up, raised their hands and saluted him, and he also had a salute, so they sat down here.

The Great Assembly Hall also became quiet.

At this time, Gong Guo stood up, waved his hand to the scribe who came up to support him, walked a few steps forward, reached the aisle, and said to the various Tianxia scholars on the seats on both sides: "Ladies and gentlemen, the four scholars have already passed the three inquiries, who can be the 'scholar', we should have a conclusion." ”
