Chapter 288: Famous in the capital
If Xu Xian's "Tea and Horse Market" in the Suzhou examination room only showed its edge and attracted the emperor's attention, then today's question and answer between the monarchs and ministers in the imperial study room is really sharp, so that the emperor can't help but lose his demeanor.
"Good, good, good!"
The emperor didn't know how many 'good' words he said, and after Xu Xian finished speaking, he straightened up a little rickety, walking back and forth in the study, and his eyes flashed with inexplicable brilliance.
After half a ring, he raised his head, looked at the two ministers, Li Jinglong and Qin Hui, and asked, "What do you two think of what Xu Hanwen said?"
Of course, Li Jinglong praised without hesitation: "Benefiting the country and the people, and making a great plan for a thousand years! If this policy can be smoothly promoted, it will be enough to become a basic national policy of our Dali Dynasty! With it, we will have the confidence to fight against the barbarians in the north!"
Qin Hui didn't want to admit it in his heart, but he still had to say simply: "It's indeed feasible." With this strategy, the court horses are finally worry-free!"
Anyway, the smooth promotion of the tea and horse exchange market can enhance the strength of the imperial court, but it does not mean that it can increase the tendency of His Majesty the Emperor to advocate war.
"In this way, then the policy of this tea and horse exchange market will set the tone at the next court meeting!"
The emperor said with blazing eyes. The two ministers of the humerus have already agreed, and the matter is basically settled.
Soon after, the Dali Dynasty would begin this new policy, and a steady stream of tea would be transported from the Central Plains to the Northwest Plateau. Horses from the plateau will also be transported in a steady stream.
At this time, the emperor turned his head to look at Xu Xian again, and asked with a smile: "Xu Hanwen, you really didn't disappoint me, even better than I imagined, and you are indeed the best pillar of talent among today's scholars." Not only is he full of poetry and books, but his talent is rare throughout the ages, and he is even more knowledgeable about political affairs! Sage Yun: If you learn and excel, you will be a regent! If you have learned to a certain extent, you can serve the imperial court for the officials and benefit the people, and this is also the significance of the imperial examination system. Now, how about I make you an official?"
Now you're going to be made an official?
Xu Xian was taken aback when he heard this.
It's not that he's scared, it's that it's not in his plans. He has just been selected for the examination, and he has not yet had time to participate in the entrance examination, and he has not been selected for the palace examination.
If he becomes an official now, how will he take the imperial examination in the future? This does not conform to the regulations.
If you can't participate in the imperial examination, or even win the top position, it will be a big loss for Xu Xian, and your cultivation and potential will be greatly affected.
It's not something that can be compensated for by being a function.
So although the king's order cannot be violated, Xu Xian hesitated for a moment, and finally said in a deep voice: "Tell Your Majesty, although the students have some unstructured ideas, in fact, they still lack too much experience, and they are not even Jinshi! I beg Your Majesty to retract the order and let the students pass the Jinshi examination, and then make the official title not too late......"
Xu Xian's ultimate purpose in participating in the imperial examination was never to be an official and enjoy glory and wealth.
He is in order to be able to improve his cultivation, in order to be able to better cultivate Haoran righteousness.
The emperor frowned when he heard this, but he was not angry, and then shook his head and said, "That's right, I almost forgot about you extraordinary 'scholars', and participating in the imperial examination is not just for the sake of being an official. In that case, let's not summon you to the court as an official for the time being......!
He didn't cultivate, but as the king of a country, it was obviously impossible for him to be completely ignorant of cultivators.
Speaking of this, the emperor changed his words and said with a smile: "Since you put forward the idea of the tea and horse exchange market, and there are many suggestions, and all aspects of the problem have been thought of, then you must participate in the implementation of this policy! If you can't be an official, I will make you the assistant professor of the Guozijian - 'Dr. Tea Horse'! The tea and horse division established in the future will also be in charge by you!"
Dr. Guozijian Teaching Assistant?
Hearing this, Li Jinglong and Qin Hui, the two rivals, couldn't help but be shocked at the same time.
Before Xu Xian came to the capital, it was surprising enough to let him go to Guozijian to report as a student. Now the emperor has directly changed Xu Xian from a student of Guozijian to an assistant teacher!
This is equivalent to a student at the Earth University in the future, who directly became an associate professor!
Many of Guozijian's doctors, such as the Doctor of the Five Classics, are second only to the Great Confucians in Confucianism, which means that they have reached the peak in a certain aspect.
These people are basically over half a hundred years old, how can they be as young as Xu Xian.
However, although the doctor has a high status, it is true that he does not hold an official position in the imperial court.
Therefore, the emperor's appointment did not affect Xu Xian's participation in the examination.
Xu Xian could only receive his life. There is no room for him to refuse in this matter, the emperor's ninety-five honor, every word, what he says is even, since he said it, it is his mind.
What's more, being a doctor of Guozijian, I don't know how many people dream of something, a lifelong pursuit. Even if it were Xu Xian, if it weren't for the fact that the tea and horse exchange market policy proposed by him was too important, he would not be able to do it easily.
Why not?
Thanks to him, he left the palace.
The next day, the emperor's appointment was sent to Guozijian, and Xu Xian's identity as 'Doctor of Tea Horse' gradually spread in the capital. After all, the emergence of a new doctor is not a trivial matter, and everyone in the world will know about it.
However, for the ordinary people in the capital, what interests them the most and can cause a sensation is not that Xu Xian has become a doctor, but that Xu Xian himself has come to the capital!
Who is Xu Xian?
However, he has made dozens of wonderful poems that can be passed down through the ages, and he is known as the first poet since the establishment of the Dali Dynasty!
His poems, if ordinary people have one or two, it is enough to move the world!
Before Xu Xian arrived in the capital, his works were already circulating in the streets and alleys of the capital. As described in a sentence in his poem: Who in the world does not know the king!
As a result, all kinds of people began to inquire about Xu Xian's news and where he lived, just like fans who chased stars in later generations were eager to see stars.
There are roughly two types of people who are the most active.
One is the organizers of various literary and poetry meetings in the capital, and they have tried their best to invite Xu Xian to participate in their next literary and poetry meetings. Xu Xian is so famous, if they can be invited, their fame will inevitably rise and they will be watched by everyone!
These people include literati groups, dignitaries, and even royal princes and princesses.
Xu Xian's poems have many fans, but if you talk about the highest degree of loyalty, the Qinglou woman is definitely the first to deserve! Each of his poems has been adapted into a repertoire by the Qinglou women who can sing and dance, and they are often used for performances.
Therefore, if it is described in the words of the earth in the later generations, Xu Xian is the 'friend of women'!
Fortunately, the place where Xu Xian lived was a 'dormitory' arranged by Guozijian, and ordinary people could not approach it, but he was not harassed. However, all kinds of invitations couldn't be stopped, and they still threw them at him like flowing water.
