Chapter 353 Li Xunhuan Visits~

The news of Ning Chen's return to Jinling finally spread.

After all, when there was such a big disturbance at the gate of Jinling City, few people didn't know it.

Zhu ignored the name and spread widely, after all, he defeated the two great masters with a single blow, and he could be regarded as a master in the world.

But the object of this person's allegiance is Ning Chen, which makes some people panic.

East Plant.

Wei Jiangxuan sat on the Taishi chair, looked at Wen Zhan below and said, "Grandmaster has broken through?"

"Yes. Wen Zhan did not have the slightest arrogance, and responded respectfully.

In front of Wei Jiangxuan, Wen Zhan is almost always like this.

"Do you know what Ning Chen's cultivation is now?" Wei Jiangxuan's face was very bad, because Ning Chen's achievements passed on several times made him feel flustered.

"I've been in retreat and I've never heard of it. Wen Zhan replied honestly.

"Single-handedly kill the Dongying swordsman Yanagi Zongyan, and kill the Great Elder and Sect Master of the Five Gods Sect in Yunnan. Wei Jiangxuan briefly mentioned it, then looked at Wen Zhan and said, "If it were you, could you do it?"

"No, you can't. Wen Strategy hesitated slightly, and slowly shook his head.

"Go ahead. Wei Jiangxuan waved his hand, and then said: "Jinyiwei don't provoke for the time being, go check the people of the Donglin Party, remember that our family wants everything!"

"Yes. ”

Wen Zhan agreed, and even turned around, and the other empty sleeve also flicked a few times in the air with his movements.

————

Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi.

It can also be regarded as Ning Chen's first day in office.

This position turned out to be held by his father-in-law Jiang Li, and the reason was because Beizhen Fusi would have people from Dongchang intervene because of his functions.

But Jiang Li personally led the envoy of Beizhen, and the people from Dongchang symbolically sent some people over, which can be regarded as a formality, or Jinyiwei has the final say.

Now Ning Chen can be on his own, and it can even be said that he is not afraid of the threat of Dongchang at all.

This position was placed in Ning Chen's hands, Jiang Li was at ease, and the emperor was also at ease.

The main thing is that Ning Chen's relationship is innocent, there is no miscellaneous relationship, and the emperor and Jiang Li are his backers in the court, which is also the reason why the emperor trusts Ning Chen.

Ning Chen didn't feel anything about this, anyway, he was just doing what he was supposed to do.

The Beizhen Fusi "specialized in the edict" (a case appointed by the emperor) and had an edict that allowed it to arrest, interrogate, execute, and execute on its own without going through the general judiciary.

It can be said that the reason why Jinyiwei has authority is because of this point.

It just so happens that this emperor is quite assertive, and the city government is deep, not to mention, no matter what the ministers below say about big and small things, anyway, people have thought about a set in advance.

However, there is one point, that is, there are not many cases approved by the emperor, and most of the cases are handed over to the three divisions of Dali Temple, the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate for trial.

Beizhen Fusi is quite idle.

Anyway, since Ning Chen came to Jinling out of the Sword Pavilion, he had only heard that the military department Shangshu was involved in the Dongting rebellion.

Although the military department was acquitted, he also resigned and returned to his hometown and became a rich man.

There is not much in the court, but there are the most people who want to be officials, and there are still waiters to arrive after the fall of the military department, and there are vacancies in waiters, and there are still many candidates staring at vacancies.

Coupled with the imperial examinations again and again, a lot of preparatory talents have been prepared for the imperial court.

It is inexhaustible, and it can be said that the most indispensable thing is to be an official.

The imperial examination in Nanming is divided into three levels: the township examination, the meeting examination, and the palace examination.

The township examination is a local examination held directly under Kyoto and the local government departments. The location is in Jinling City or the residence of the political envoy. Once every three years, it is held every child, Mao, noon, and unitary year, and is also called Xiangfu. The examination hall of the examination is called Gongin. The examination period is in autumn and August, so it is also called Qiuqiu.

The person who takes the township examination is called a lifter, and this status is already very high in the township, and he is also qualified to be some petty officials in the local county government.

Now the autumn has just passed.

After the beginning of spring, we will try again.

The general examination is a national examination presided over by the Ministry of Rites, also known as the rites. In the second year of the township test, it will be held in the ugly, chen, wei and xu years.

At that time, the whole country will take the examination in Jinling, and the examination period will be in February in the spring, so it is called the spring festival.

If you pass the examination, you can become a tribute in the examination.

The temple examination is held on the first day of the third month of the third month of the year after the examination. The candidates for the examination are tributes, and the tributes do not fail in the palace examination, but the emperor rearranges the rankings. The palace examination was presided over by the emperor himself, and only one was examined. After the temple examination, the paper was read the next day, and the list was released the next day.

Admission is divided into three grades: the first and third, the first and the first, the first champion, the Dingyuan, the second list, and the three Tanhua, collectively known as the three tripods.

The second class is given the birth of a jinshi, and the third class is given the same birth of a jinshi.

The Jinshi list is written on yellow paper, so it is called Huangjia, also known as the gold list, if it is the title of the gold list, and the glory of the ancestors.

But people like Ning Chen have not participated in any imperial examinations, but they are already members of the four grades in the imperial court, and these people have won the Jinshi, even if they are the first champion in high school, they must obediently go to the Hanlin Academy to learn the way of being an official, and wait until there are vacancies in the local county orders or the positions of the imperial court departments before they can be topped by them.

Usually starting from the loose officials of the eighth grade, those who can directly sit in the position of the county commander of the seventh rank are either related, or the leader among them.

In fact, thinking about it, Ning Chen was only a Baling inspection of the ninth grade at the beginning, and it was still too rare for someone to reach the sky in one step.

However, to Ning Chen's surprise, Nanming's imperial examination was not a worthless eight-strand essay that was ridiculed by later generations, but a practical essay that was used in the world.

Whether it is economic, political, military, or water conservancy, agriculture, criminal law, etc., the security is the only way to take it.

This is also the reason why Nanming's talent pool is strong.

Li Xunhuan, the big guy drawn by Ning Chen's lottery.

The third son of the Li family.

The current Li family does not have the reputation of a seven-jinshi and a father and son.

But Ning Chen deliberately learned that the Li family has also had six Jinshi since he joined the office, and Li Xunhuan's father and eldest brother are also in the position of exploring flowers.

"I heard that Brother Li participated in the Autumn Festival a few days ago. Ning Chen looked at Li Xunhuan and asked, "But I don't know why Brother Li came to me today?"

"There's one thing I want to ask for. Li Xunhuan arched his hand at Ning Chen and said.

"What's the matter?" Ning Chen was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Could it be that you came to me to go through the back door?"

"Brother Ning guessed right. Li Xunhuan showed a smile on his face, and then said: "The list has not been released yet, and I want Brother Ning to mediate it." ”

"With Brother Li's ability, you still want me to mediate?" Although Ning Chen said this before, it was more of a joke, Li Xunhuan's talent didn't need to worry about it at all~

Unless what he pulled out was a fake Xiao Li Tanhua.

"Brother Li doesn't know that I am now the envoy of Jinyiwei's Beizhen? I won't say that Brother Li is properly Xie Yuan, if I mention Brother Li's name, I'm afraid it is possible to be off the list. Ning Chen shook his head and continued: "Those old stubborns, they don't necessarily put Jinyiwei in their eyes... After all, people are interested in the bones. ”

"Actually, I just want to be off the list. Li Xunhuan shrugged, and then said: "If my father hadn't asked me to participate in the imperial examination, I wouldn't even want to touch the pen." ”

Li Xunhuan said and took out a flying knife, looked at Ning Chen and said, "My whole life is all on top of the flying knife, and I can't tolerate a second thing." ”

"Since you don't want to fall off the list, then why don't you scribble on the answer sheet? Isn't it easy for me to sabotage you?" Ning Chen was a little strange.

"My father was an examiner. Li Xunhuan's face sank, and then said: "His old man is staring at me, how dare I scribble?"

Ning Chen looked at Li Xunhuan and said, "Actually, this matter is not a bad thing. ”

"After all, it is the fulfillment of Ling Zun's wish. Ning Chen paused, and then said: "After all, Ling Zun and Brother Ling are both serving in the imperial court, if you don't have a reputation on you, it will make his old man's face dull... It's a big deal, just resign in the end and don't do it. ”

"Even if you prove yourself, you can also give Ling Zun a long face, why not do it?" Ning Chen was fooling Li Xunhuan.

In fact, he just wants to achieve the achievement of a seven-jinshi, father and son three tanhua~

"Alas~" Li Xunhuan sighed lightly, shook his head, and then said: "Forget it, this matter is nothing, I have one more thing to say this time." ”

"What's the matter?" Ning Chen looked at Li Xunhuan in front of him, he didn't experience emotional twists and turns, just a young man who could use Xiao Li's flying knife.

There is no precipitation, it is not deep, some are just clear.

"Donglin Party. Li Xunhuan spit out three words.

"Could it be that your Li family is also involved in the Donglin Party?" Ning Chen's brows furrowed slightly.

"Father didn't. Li Xunhuan showed a wry smile on his face: "It's my brother." ”

"Does Ling Zun know about this?" a trace of solemnity appeared on Ning Chen's face.

"I don't know. Li Xunhuan replied softly: "My father never participated in the party struggle, and the eldest brother didn't dare to tell my father." ”

"Break your leg. Ning Chen thought about it, looked at Li Xunhuan and said.

"What?" Li Xunhuan was slightly stunned, not understanding what Ning Chen meant.

"I mean, break Brother Ling's leg. Ning Chen's idea came out of his hands, without the slightest hesitation, and his posture was quite skillful.

"This..."

Li Xunhuan's brows first slowly wrinkled together, and then gradually stretched, looked at Ning Chen and said, "Are you saying that the Donglin Party can't defeat Dongchang this time?"

"They want to uproot the East Factory when it is seriously damaged. Ning Chen looked at Li Xunhuan and said, "But it is completely possible from the forces of the Donglin Party and the Dongchang Party. ”

"Heh... Hehe~" Li Xunhuan is so smart, he didn't think about it before, but now he is naturally thorough: "But some people don't want to see the fall of Dongchang." ”

"Is it Jinyiwei?" Li Xunhuan asked as he looked at Ning Chen.

"Jin Yiwei has always only represented the emperor's will. Ning Chen said softly.

"It seems that the Donglin Party will be defeated. Li Xunhuan said that something suddenly came to mind here, looked at Ning Chen and said: "I heard that Lord Zhang, the waiter of the Criminal Department, suffered revenge from the enemy on both legs, and his legs were broken..."

"Really?" Ning Chen blinked innocently, and then said, "I am close friends with Zhang Chengxuan, the son of Lord Zhang, and it is really a sin that I didn't go to visit one or two. ”

Saying this, Ning Chen stopped and smiled, looked at Li Xunhuan and asked, "Brother Li, is there anything else?"

"I heard that Brother Ning has achieved great martial arts, but he actually wants to ask for a lesson or two. Li Xunhuan said with a pious face.

"Not comparable. Ning Chen immediately refused.

Ning Chen never did anything to die.

What is the difference between comparing martial arts with Xiao Li's flying knife and looking for death?

Even if Li Xunhuan hasn't broken out of his own myth yet, Ning Chen will not test the waters with himself.

"Alas?" Li Xunhuan was a little surprised.

"If you don't compare, you don't compare, what do you say. Ning Chen's face sank, and then said: "If there is time for martial arts, it is better to go to your brother quickly." ”

"Since Brother Ning is unwilling to compare, then he will leave. The look of pity in Li Xunhuan's eyes was still looked at by Ning Chen.

Li Xunhuan also saw Ning Chen's expression clearly, not to mention that Ning Chen didn't have the slightest desire to compete with him, and even when he heard the word competition, he even had a trace of fear.

"Am I so terrible?" Li Xunhuan shrugged and walked out of the Beizhen Fu Envoy Yamen.

Da Li is opposite Lao Li at the moment.

"Daddy. Da Li looked at Lao Li and asked, "I don't know what happened to Daddy calling the child back?"

"You sat down by yourself, but you came to ask me?" Lao Li sat on the main seat and said lightly: "Kneel down." ”

"Yes. Da Li was quite filial and knelt on the ground obediently.

After thinking about it in my heart, there is only one thing left now, that is, I participated in the Donglin Party.

Although he is not a member of the Donglin Party, he is also on their fringes and may be accepted at any time.

When he moved to Dongchang, the imperial court was under the control of the Donglin Party, and he could show his talents!

But Dad has never looked down on the Donglin Party, should he explain it?

As soon as Li Xunhuan returned home, he saw the scene in front of him.

"Father, brother, this...?" Li Xunhuan looked confused, he knew that his brother was more filial than himself, and the only thing that was out of the ordinary was that he had a relationship with the Donglin Party.

But I didn't tell my father!

"Big brother, it's not me!" Li Xunhuan gave Da Li a look of care.

"Do you know about your eldest brother's collusion with the Donglin Party?"

"Sure enough~" The two brothers sighed in unison: "The old man still knows~"

"I didn't know before, but now I know. Li Xunhuan said immediately.

"I haven't asked you where you're going~" The old man hit his cane on the ground a few times, and then said: "Next year, try to give me the champion back!"

"I went to the Yamen of Fusi in Jinyi Weibei Town. Li Xunhuan said honestly: "Ning Chen came back from Yunnan and went to look for him." ”

"The two of you have a good relationship. Lao Li said helplessly: "But you and I don't have the ability, people can be officials without the imperial examination... But you guys... Alas~"

"Actually, the child thinks it's not interesting for this official to do. Li Xunhuan pursed his lips, and then said: "Especially the officials in Jinling City~"
