Chapter 0080: The will of heaven is unpredictable

If it were in ancient Earth, Lan Chongwen would still be one of Ye Qing's attendants and mentors, but this world does not have such rules.

The reason is very simple. In ancient times, there was no such rigorous operation, and there was a great deal of power in the hands of examiners. Often, they could be dismissed or promoted with just one thought, which is a blessing of creation.

In this world, there are standards for supervision, luck, and talent from all parties, and the authority of examiners for admission is very limited. Everything is just a matter of public business, so there is no such thing as the so-called're creation grace '.

However, I still want to express my gratitude. Ye Qing bowed and prepared one hundred taels of silver.

This was the expected outcome, and Lan Chongwen accepted it with a smile. However, Ye Qing's future was immeasurable, and Lan Chongwen dared not really put on airs. He immediately ordered his servants to set up a banquet to entertain him.

Ye Qing was talking about reporting the case to the state examination, and Lan Chongwen smiled and said, "This is supposed to be the order of the law. When you come, just let me know... But it's not easy to get promoted. What have the scholars been up to recently

Ye Qing was already prepared, took out a roll, and said, "These are the three articles I have written recently. Please advise me, sir

These are not plagiarism, they are his own works. After seven years of training in his dream, he has integrated all the articles and consciously made great progress in his literary career.

There is only a slight gap, making it difficult to truly advance, but this is not a problem with the cultural industry, it is a problem with one's own path, and cannot be forced.

Lan Chongwen smiled and took Ye Qing's paper before taking a glance. He saw that the words were dignified, beautiful, round, and introverted, and his expression turned into a dignified expression. He sighed, "Your handwriting has improved again

Speaking, he looked over carefully.

I only saw that these were three articles, but each word was precious and the writing was refined, almost reaching a level that could not be added or deleted. The content was also pure and the words were harmonious.

But there really is a sense of grandeur and elegance.

Lan Chongwen read such words and didn't even have time to eat the dishes. He just drank one glass after another with the words, and in the blink of an eye, he drank three glasses. He read it repeatedly and sighed in his heart.

The Three Classics and Five Classics were written by the Dao Jun, who not only pondered on the way of governing the country, but also aimed to govern the entire world. However, even though these classics are published throughout the world, how many people can read them?

How much can a scholar learn by reading the books of sages without paying attention to things outside the window?

It can be said that the children's examination only requires basic familiarity with singing, the scholar needs to fully understand the surface meaning of the classics, the juren needs to be able to justify their own understanding of the truth, and the jinshi needs to lay a foundation for the Tao.

If one can absorb the principles of the Three Classics and Five Classics, and justify their arguments, their literary style will be infused with vitality. If one can not only justify their arguments, but also apply them to reality for verification, then they will be pure and refined.

This requires extraordinary skills and profound knowledge. To achieve this, scholars need to have exceptional talents. Therefore, nowadays, they rely on natural luck to make them see the green light. Those who can truly reach it solely through reasoning and literary skills are, to put it bluntly, the wise talents that the Taoist court must welcome.

But for now, these three articles can at least reach the point of self justification.

Lan Chongwen flipped through these three papers repeatedly and sighed for a long time before saying, "I really have the talent of a jinshi

Ye Qing was personally selected by Long Jun to become a jinshi. To be honest, Lan Chongwen was a bit skeptical just now, but now when he looks at the article, there is no doubt about it.

This child is only sixteen years old, but he has such talent. I think he has the ability to become a jinshi

If we wait a few more years and this son becomes highly skilled, I'm afraid he can enter the second tier of the imperial examination and become a true jinshi, which could lead to longevity. However, this way, the court will lose one talent

But it was about to spread the message to Kyoto, helping this son with a helping hand, and being able to pass the imperial examination and become a jinshi

No matter how talented this son is, he is too young. He cannot pass the imperial examination in this class. If he passes the imperial examination, he can stay in the court and add a pillar to the foundation of the court

Moreover, it can also increase the power of my faction

Thinking of this, Lan Chongwen became even more enthusiastic, but he didn't immediately return the paper. He raised his glass and said, "I want to read your article carefully, can I stay here

No matter how prophetic Ye Qing was, he couldn't guess his thoughts. He smiled and said, "If you want to observe, dare you not obey your orders

Enjoying the feast at the moment, he left after an hour.

As soon as Ye Qing stepped back, Lan Chongwen, who was already drunk, immediately jumped up. There was not even a hint of drunkenness left. He hurriedly rushed to the secret room and took a jade card with a blue stripe on it. This was originally used for emergency communication and was very precious. There were only three jade cards in a year.

But at this moment, it was no pity that Ye Qing had carefully written about her past and gathered these three volumes together. With just a touch of her hand, she saw the jade plaque transform into a green bird, holding the letter and flying out, disappearing into the air in the blink of an eye.

Tongfu

At this moment, the lights were brightly lit in the night, and the guards were strict. The sound of discussions could be heard continuously from inside.

What are all these things... With summer harvest approaching, the regulations on grain and tax collection have not been submitted yet

Dear Grand Secretary, these two are the brochures we just received, and the detailed rules are being sent to us as soon as possible

Mmm... Chengzhou, please exempt fishermen from taxes for one year. How much loss did this typhoon cause? How vague is it? Huang Zishi got drunk after drinking? He only knows how to reach out for help! Let him give it to me... No, you personally send someone to investigate and analyze the report

Yes, I'll go handle it now

A glimmer of light emanated from the "creak" door, and a middle-aged official in a yellow robe and crown ran out. He almost bumped into two maids in the opposite direction, staring at them and about to scold them. When he saw them holding plates, he realized that there was a secret message coming from them. He had to admit his bad luck and helped up his crown before running away in small steps.

The two maidservants were startled and looked at the busy mountains and seas of literature behind the door. The middle-aged man in the blue purple official uniform, who was training people at the innermost part, dared not enter for a moment. After a moment, they saw a middle-aged man come in and said, "What are you doing here? If you are spying on secrets, you will be killed, do you know

As he spoke, he saw them holding plates and couldn't help but laugh, "I almost forgot about this matter. It's up to me, you guys step back

Thank you, Lord Prefect! "The maid responded softly, turning around and running away.

The official was holding a silver plate in his hand and it was not convenient to enter immediately, so he only kept an eye on the inside at the door.

Let's start with agriculture. The Ministry of War has gathered here to repair and rectify the border villages, in order to prevent the Northern Wei tribes from heading south in autumn and experiencing autumn winds. This requires careful planning, and I will also present it to the cabinet for discussion

After discussing the political matter, the atmosphere finally changed. After speaking for a while, the discussion was settled, and the officials took their leave wisely, leaving only scholar Tong Da in deep thought.

At this time, the official of the government came over with a plate and said, "Madam, looking at the master who is still working, has made Broth of white fungus soup with rock sugar bird's nest. She is afraid that it will be cold, so she didn't deliver it immediately. You can use it later - this is the secret letter sent by someone just now. The letter is from Nancang County."

Academician Tong woke up from deep contemplation with a bitter smile on his face and said, "There's nothing I can do about it

Up to now, Da Cai has developed into a cabinet system, where except for the Prime Minister, everyone else is promoted to the rank of Grand Secretary, which is the position of Deputy Prime Minister.

The Grand Scholar is a second-class official, almost reaching the pinnacle of being a minister. This Grand Scholar's Office Magistrate is a civil servant with a rank of eighth grade, recommended to the court by a trusted steward. They are both successful and unsuccessful, as many private conversations can be said.

Master Tong stood up, took the letter, and smiled, "Lan Chongwen? This person knows he is only of eighth grade and has always been cautious. Why did he use the Qingniao messenger

Master Tong's name is Tong Shan. At this moment, he pulled out a letter and, at first, he casually smiled and said, "How come even a small scholar is treated like a big deal

At this point, he was about to take out his paper, but as soon as he looked at it, he didn't say anything for a moment. Duan Rong looked at it, read it once, remained silent, and then returned to carefully review Ye Qing's file on the letter.

After putting down the letter and taking a few steps slowly, he suddenly let out a long sigh and said, "There are so many heroes in the world

Tong Shan's mood seemed somewhat contradictory. With a sigh, he suddenly said coldly, "Go investigate this person named Ye Qing, both internally and externally

Yes, I will go and handle it immediately

Going to do it immediately would take a few weeks to delay, but this time I won't allow it. Tell them to prepare their gear immediately, "Tong Shan said." Only you know about this matter. Please take a look at this letter first

Yes! "The prefect remained silent, took the letter and looked at it. After reading it, he was somewhat surprised and said," Sir, this son is somewhat extraordinary, but there's no need to be so grand

Tong Shan smiled and said, "You've been with me for twenty years, and your knowledge is not small, but you still can't understand this matter

As he spoke, he stood up and walked slowly, sneering, "You can't know about this. As long as you know it's not an ordinary time lately, you can pay 5000 taels of silver in the mansion... No, I'll give it to you now. Don't enter the mansion anymore, so as not to reveal your whereabouts

Speaking of which, he took out a silver ticket from his left boot and said, "This is five thousand taels of silver. Take it, but it's a promise that your job must be done beautifully

Yes! "The prefect said no more and responded in unison.

Tong Shan retreated when he saw it. He was already exhausted, but he didn't want to rest at this moment. He took tea and drank it, watching it several times in a row. At this moment, a dull thunder echoed, and he rubbed his eyes before sitting up. He saw a lightning bolt shining white inside and outside the room, and a bamboo grove swaying in the wind from a distance

Suddenly, another explosion of thunder shook the house and made Tong Shan tremble all over!

As soon as I left the room, a gust of wind came rushing towards me, accompanied by rain. A steward quickly approached and bowed, saying, "Sir, the wind and rain are heavy now, don't catch a cold

Well, it's okay, I'm just taking a walk! "Tong Shan waved his hand and continued to ponder.

Dragon Qi mutation, who dares to neglect the cabinet? During this evolution, there was confusion between fish and dragons. Is Ye Qing at this time, or one of them

But the court originally supervised it, so it seems that the Yu family has this suspicion

Anyway, being included in supervision early is always a good thing, and it may even add strength to the Sixth Prince

This world is not a world where everyone's body is equal. Personal strength can often influence the overall trend. Currently, Ye Qing is just a scholar, but with time, she may be able to shake the overall trend of one side!

This is hundreds of thousands of years of experience. Up to now, as long as they are important officials, they are clear about it. How dare they neglect it?

Thinking about this, Tong Shan looked up at the sky, where thunder was rolling and lightning was constantly flashing. However, he was lost in thought and only let out a sigh, "The will of heaven is unpredictable
