Chapter 519 The end of the exam
The importance of the military to a country is understood by individuals. Every country will find ways to improve the combat effectiveness of the army, equipment, martial arts, food, military merits, military regulations, battle formations, intelligence... and so on, everything that ordinary people can think of. In terms of improving military combat effectiveness, Yunjing really has nothing to describe. Every country has achieved the ultimate, so he found a new way to talk about discipline.

For this reason, he also gave an example of the importance of discipline to the military. For example, under the premise of the same number of people, the same equipment and the same combat effectiveness, when two armies are fighting, the side with better discipline has a greater chance of winning. It is worthwhile to take the initiative to create opportunities for others with your own sacrifices, so as to create the final victory with a small number of people. If discipline is not good, and a small number of people dare not step forward, then such two armies will inevitably fall into a stalemate. Pay more casualties but can not win the end of the war.

Then Yunjing gave another simple example. A well-disciplined army treats the people well. In this way, during a war, the people appreciate the army's benevolent deeds and are likely to take the initiative to help. With the help of the people, make good use of it. Invisibly increased the combat effectiveness of the army...

Of course, military issues are definitely not that simple, they involve all aspects, and it is difficult to explain in one word, but if combined with Yunjing’s previous prosperity of the people’s livelihood, then the military discipline he discussed is remarkable, which is why Yunjing took the lead in describing people’s livelihood reason.

If the people are rich, the country will be rich, and if the country is rich, it will be able to cultivate a strong military force, so emphasizing discipline in this way can be said to be icing on the cake.

Moreover, the topic of this question is long-term peace and stability. Yunjing has not forgotten the core idea. Good military discipline and loyalty to the country will reduce many riots and rebellions, and only then can the goal of long-term peace and stability be truly achieved.

On this topic of policy, Yun Jing’s explanations can be described as one-to-one. There is no such thing as an eye-catching description of swordsmanship, and there is no such thing as a soldier’s dangerous move. The article written here is quite satisfactory. But if you think about it carefully, it makes people feel unsatisfied. It reveals a calm atmosphere in the middle of the rules, and it is impossible to write such an article without any wisdom and strategy. A kind of small-mindedness, but the combination of the overall situation he described gives people a torrential atmosphere that takes into account the overall situation from the subtleties. People without a little wisdom can't see the brilliance of this article at all.

Yun Jing believes that the person who can serve as an examiner is by no means mediocre, but anyone with a little foresight will not bury his own article, but who can explain this kind of thing clearly, he can only try his best to write a good article to get a good one. When you get the grades, do what you should do first, and leave the rest to the examiner to judge.

After explaining the military aspect, Yunjing began to describe the law again.

The law can be called the foundation of a country, and its importance is known to everyone. The Dali Dynasty has a history of more than 800 years, and the law has been revised and perfected countless times. It is conceivable how difficult it is to write something brilliant in this respect. One If it is not good, it will ruin Yunjing's previous discussion on people's livelihood and military affairs, and make the whole article inferior.

But regarding this aspect, Yunjing is confident. After all, he has the memory of his previous life. Regarding the law, he still has some advanced suggestions, but they should not be too advanced. It needs to be combined with the current era background. After all, there is a saying called step If you are too big, it's easy to get confused, and things that are too subversive will only make people think that Yun Jing is talking nonsense.

Regarding the law, Yunjing first emphasized the four words that the law is intolerant. This kind of thinking is also the current mainstream. Regardless of what people who exercise legal rights do behind their backs, it is at least like this on the surface.

Then he perfected this discussion a little bit, using morality should not be above the law as the starting point, and even gave examples of the pros and cons of this aspect, whether the law is greater than emotion or morality is the first, this point Yunjing quoted The example when I communicated with Deng Fuzi at the beginning, and then set the starting point for this entry point. If morality is too much considered in the process of casting a spell, what is the difference between the law and a piece of paper?
Regarding the conflict between morality and law, it can be said that it has existed since ancient times, and the saying "excusable" often appears, but in Yunjing's discussion, breaking the law will be punished by the law, even if Things happen for a reason, and we must first maintain the dignity of the law, and then consider the moral issues in it, which cannot be confused.

In fact, what Yunjing wrote about the law here is basically talking nonsense. After all, these things are clichés, and if you say it, you don't say it.

The length of his description is very small, more than 100 characters can be described in one stroke. Well, the current world is ancient after all, and writing articles are all kinds of classical Chinese. A simple sentence can express a lot of meaning.

The focus is on the next content. Yunjing focused on describing the word "change" for the law. He emphasized in the article that the law also needs to be adjusted frequently according to the actual situation. The law is dead, but people are alive. , the world is changing, and the law cannot remain static.

He gave examples of what kind of law should be exercised under what circumstances. For example, in times of war, harsh laws need to be used, while in times of peace and prosperity, the laws need to be relatively benevolent.

Regarding the law, when the article was written later, Yunjing mentioned that the dynasty should often send people to investigate the situation in various places, and adjust the law appropriately according to the current situation. The territory is huge, and the customs of each place are different, which can be adjusted appropriately according to the situation of different places, and the law also needs to be inclusive.

In short, the whole article focuses on a word change, not subversion, but adjustment.

Yunjing didn't have the brains to point out which law was inappropriate and how to adjust it. It was undoubtedly a 'court death' behavior, and it was enough to express what he wanted to express clearly.

The topic is long-term peace and stability, the people's livelihood is the foundation, the military is the power to maintain the foundation, and the law is the balance of everything. Yunjing's article can be said to be progressive and closely follow the core ideas, and there is no nonsense.

Previously, these were internal, so the final diplomacy is external. With a good internal, you have to look to the outside world. At this time, the importance of diplomacy has been reflected. After all, if diplomacy is not done well, it will affect the In the future of a country, in many cases, the decline of the country is not from the inside, but from the outside. It is very likely that a diplomatic incident will trigger a war, so diplomatic matters must be extremely cautious.

Under what circumstances, what kind of foreign policy will be followed by which country, Yun Jing believes that the princes in the court know better than him. In this regard, he has not made a fool of himself in the article, and he has had the experience of communicating with Deng Fuzi on diplomacy. Jing starts to elaborate from this aspect.

He did not cite the cultural invasion diplomacy proposed at the beginning, but described it in another way as "cultural export". Diplomacy is not a competition of strength, national power and military. When you cannot gain more diplomatic discourse power by yourself, why not export your own culture?Let other countries actively approach and jump out of conventional means to achieve the goal of "surrendering the enemy without fighting"!

When diplomacy is done well, there is no war in neighboring countries, the border is stable, and the family and country are peaceful. Is there any reason why there is no long-term stability?

After the whole article, Yunjing's description of diplomacy can be described as mediocre, but it is the core key, and its importance is even higher than the previous people's livelihood, military affairs and laws!

In fact, if you think about it carefully, even if it is a weak and small country, if diplomacy is done well, not to mention its own stability, it will take the initiative to help, this is the "power" of diplomacy!
However, Yunjing’s article is not describing currying favor with other countries, but exporting culture to show its own characteristics, so that other countries can take the initiative to get closer. From this perspective, the desired goal of diplomacy can be achieved. Deng Fuzi's 'cultural invasion' is only one aspect.

People's livelihood, military, law, diplomacy, Yunjing grasped the core idea of ​​long-term peace and stability to describe, layer by layer, interlocking, and more than 10,000 words, writing from noon to evening.

After finishing writing, Yunjing read the article by himself, and he was still very satisfied. Although there were many restrictions and many things he could not write because of the background of the times, he really tried his best to write this article well.

To be reasonable, the article was written, but Yun Jing couldn't guarantee what kind of results he would achieve in the end. He just hoped that it wasn't too bad. After all, he wrote it based on his experience and knowledge in this era. , instead of copying a random article with a single hand of "Wang Zhan" and confidently smashing everything.

After reading it carefully, Yunjing put it down for a short rest, and ate something by the way. He also vaguely heard the sound of scratching hair and grinding teeth from many examination rooms around him. Jing didn't plan to use his mind to watch it, just be himself.

The more than 10,000-word strategy theory Yunjing wrote more than a dozen blank sheets of paper, but at present this is only the first draft, and it will be revised and polished in the future. Yunjing is serious.

After eating and resting for a while, after the sky darkened, Yunjing followed the light of the lantern to revise the first draft, deleted some things, and adjusted some wording and tone. The text was reduced to less than [-] words, but it was more concise and capable than The previous draft has been improved a bit.

This is only the first draft revision, and Yunjing will have to ponder over and over again in order to achieve the best he can do. This process is undoubtedly boring, and people with bad mentality may be confused during the revision process. After all, people's mentality is changing all the time, and the content that was considered good one moment may be rejected the next moment.

Fortunately, Yunjing's mentality has always been stable, and there will be no such situation. After all, he is used to making changes over and over again when writing articles, until nothing can be changed. He doesn't find it boring, but likes this kind of rigor. Every bit of progress makes him feel happy.

After the first draft revision, it was completely dark. After all, it was revision, which was different from writing an article. It was undoubtedly much faster without thinking while writing.

While it was still early, Yunjing revised the manuscript for the second time, and simplified some wording and tone. The number of words in the article was further reduced, but the content was more rigorous and refined.

After the second time, Yunjing stopped revising the manuscript, but took a rest. There is still one day left for the exam, and there is plenty of time. Don’t be in a hurry. Rest for a night and adjust your mind. This will be more conducive to checking the obsolete the next day. Trapping.

The examination room was not peaceful that night. A few people could not bear to use special means to cheat, and were quietly taken away after being discovered. Some people collapsed on the spot because they did not have enough accumulation to face some content of the test paper, which would inevitably affect the order of the examination room. Some of these people were warned to adjust themselves to stay, while others were expelled from the examination room.

The imperial examination is a choice of fate. For many people, Jackie Chan has been watching for a few days. After all, he failed once. After a failure experience, it is difficult to face it in the future without leaving a shadow. The mentality is also a part of "strength". .

After one night, Yunjing continued to take the exam seriously the next day. He started to revise yesterday's article early in the morning, without any distractions, and didn't even look at the soldier examiners patrolling the exam room.

Until noon, Yunjing edited the article five times in a row after it was edited twice yesterday. The number of words has been reduced to less than [-] words. To the extreme of what I can do!
Seeing that the exam was about to end in half a day, Yunjing was not in a hurry to finalize the article and formally copy the article on the test paper, but calmed down and carefully checked all the test papers he had done from the beginning.

After three times in a row, Yunjing didn't find any mistakes or omissions. Of course, this is just the result of his own inspection. Whether there are really no mistakes or omissions, the examiner will make the final judgment. Anyway, Yunjing has done his best. Try to do your best.

After checking the test paper, he began to copy the finalized article. The font was correct and neat in one go, without the slightest pause to alter.

When the last stroke is made, it indicates that Yunjing's exam is over, what kind of results Yunjing can achieve in the end, and whether he can be on the list, it will be half a month later.

After half a month, the results of the Juren Examination will be released. After all, so many test papers need to be copied with anonymized names before the final marking, which requires a lot of manpower and time.

Although he has already finished the exam and there is still some time before the end of the exam, Yun Jing did not rush to hand in the paper and leave. Instead, he read the paper again and checked it again and again. Although this is not very meaningful, it is Yunjing's serious attitude.

In fact, not to mention him, there was no one in the entire examination room who handed in the papers and left in advance. Of course, such "crazy students" were not absent, but they did not appear in this examination room.

As the sun went down, when three heavy bells rang, a majestic and powerful voice spread throughout the examination room.

"The exam is over, the examinee stops writing, stays where he is, silences his voice, and waits for the papers to be collected before leaving!"

When this voice appeared, the atmosphere of the entire examination room was condensed, but it was still quiet. No one made any noise at this time. It doesn't matter whether the test is good or not. For nothing.

Yunjing sorted out the test papers and put the drafts aside neatly, waiting quietly for the papers to be collected.

The same as when you came, when you leave, except for a suit of clothes and student status, other pieces of paper cannot be taken away.

Gu Yunjing, who collected the papers, knew that they were all illiterate. When they collected the papers, they pasted up the names on the papers and stored them. At this time, Yunjing clearly felt a series of sharp eyes scanning the examination room, presumably to prevent There was fraud at the last moment, and no one dared to take unnecessary actions at this time. The examinees sat quietly, and the people collecting papers performed their duties without saying a word.

The entire process of collecting papers lasted half an hour. After the examination papers were taken away by heavy guards, the voice of the chief examiner sounded and said: "This imperial examination is over, and candidates can leave the examination room. I wish you a bright future and a name on the list."

When these words fell, the entire examination room suddenly became lively, and the previous depression suddenly broke out, making it look like a vegetable market.

Candidates have been suppressed for so long, and they always want to vent. Some people yelled wildly, some called their friends, and some broke down and cried, probably because they failed the exam...

Yun Jing was still calm, he tidied up his posture and walked towards the exit. After a few days of exams, although he was still clean and tidy, he was eager to go back and wash up. Not to mention three full days.

Not to mention anything else, the smell of ink on my body is too strong, especially the ink provided by the government is not good, not only does not have the so-called ink fragrance, but it is a bit smelly...

Leaving the examination room, "seeing the sun again", the outside became more lively, countless people flocked to greet the candidates, and the scene became chaotic.

All living beings have a panoramic view. Some family members eagerly asked how they did in the exam. Faced with such a question, some looked confident and proud, some remained silent, and did not know whether they were low-key or unsure, and some cried. The sky is rushing, of course, more is to step up to answer.

This kind of scene is similar to that after every exam in Yunjing's previous life, but the imperial examination here is much more important than the exams in his previous life.

Bang~!

"Someone fainted..."

There was a commotion, Yun Jing raised his eyes, and he felt very sad. The person who fainted was an old candidate with white beard and white hair. He didn't know whether it was because he didn't do well in the exam, he was under too much pressure or he was not in good health. He fainted immediately after leaving the exam room. up.

This is seventy and eighty and has not given up yet, Yunjing can only sigh the imperial examination...

"Master, this way"

In the chaotic crowd, Yunjing quickly found Song Yan, who was walking among the crowd and waving to Yunjing.

After the master and servant met, Song Yan didn't say a word about how Yunjing did in the exam, but said: "Master, you have worked hard, and I have prepared meals and bath supplies. After you go back, you have enough to eat and drink, and take a good rest."

"Let's go, go back, the imperial examination is over, you have to relax," Yun Jing smiled and nodded.

No matter what the result is, it's over. Although I will continue to study in the future, I don't have to keep my hands on the book like before, and I can relax a bit.

To be honest, Yun Jing was not used to this relief.

Yunjing didn't have many friends in Qingjiang City, and there were few unnecessary greetings. After returning home, Yunjing washed up, ate, drank, and went to bed beautifully.

This night, Qingjiang City was extremely lively, especially the brothels, which were full of customers. After all, the exams were over. Candidates have been nervous for so long, and they always need to indulge.

Although Yunjing can go home immediately after the exam, and if he is admitted to the Juren government, someone will go to announce the good news, but Yunjing still plans to stay for half a month. After all, it is years of hard work, and he also wants to know the result as soon as possible.

Then he has already made a decision on whether to participate in Yunjing in this year's Jinshi examination, and he doesn't plan to participate. First, he has no plans to get the Jinshi honor "Qingyun Zhishang" in a year to show off. Those who can pass the exam, after all, lack of preparation, and then, after preparing for the exam for so long, he also wants to relax for a while.

Next time, or next time, anyway, since I am still young, it is not Yunjing's goal to become an official in the imperial examination, it is just a process for him to make his family happy.

Then Yun Jing was thinking again, with his father's character, he might wish to be an official in the future, a high official, and then he would be famous. After all, he wanted his son to become a dragon, and Yun Shan was no different from other people.

But Yunjing didn't intend to become an official, this was a headache.

In the future, I can be an official, but I am willing to be a wild crane. I am afraid that my father will beat me with a stick. I am an unworthy prodigal...

Forget it, don't think about it, let's talk about the future, anyway, as long as the thinking doesn't slip, there are always more ways than difficulties, and there will be plenty of ways to deal with the family.

Half a month is not a long time, and suddenly without the "pressure" of the imperial examination, Yunjing became a little idle, and occasionally walked around in Qingjiang City on weekdays, and sometimes went to the giant python to have a look.

After this period of time, the giant python has almost fully recovered from its injuries under the nourishment of the spiritual energy gathered by the spirit gathering array, and its breath has become thicker and stronger, and it is estimated that there is still room for growth.

Because he was relieved, Yun Jing became more diligent when going to Bai Zhi's side.

The results of the imperial examination have not yet come out, and the blank paper does not say a word about how Yunjing did in the exam, for fear of bringing pressure to Yunjing, but to serve him wholeheartedly. One night, Yunjing drank some wine, together with great interest, he took Baizhi straight up to Qingyun, and saw rolling and happy in Baiyun, tsk tsk, that kind of happiness that ordinary people can't experience, it's really wonderful.

During this time, Song Yan, who was a school boy, didn't ask how Yun Jing was doing in the exam, but he was making preparations silently, and exchanged two large boxes of copper coins, and then some broken silver ingots.

Needless to say, he is preparing to reward money, and the person who announces the congratulations must give the congratulations money. If someone comes to congratulate, even a beggar has to say no.

Although he didn't say it, Song Yan believed that his young master would definitely be on the list.

Half a month passed quickly, and the time was spent in peace. It can be said that the day when the rankings are released in the blink of an eye.

The result of working so hard for so long is about to be announced, let alone, Yunjing is a little nervous.
