Dahan first prince

Chapter 362 Deliberation in the Yanwu Palace!
They never walked out of the Yang Palace and walked on the palace road together. The expressions on the faces of Cao Can, Wang Ling, and Zhang Cang can be said to be exactly the same.

However, the points of concern of the three are different.

"Emphasis on counting and despise writing, isn't it true that the people you choose are all merchants?"

"Even if you enter the court and serve as an official, you will end up being no more than a knife and a pen to assist officials. How can you be worthy of a big job?"

This is the doubt in Cao Shen's heart;
"When a man is appointed as an official, his ability is only tested by literary examinations, and he is not supported by military merits as evidence. If things go on like this, is it not a country that will not be a country?"

This is the complaint in Wang Ling's heart.

But in Zhang Cang's heart, he was still reminiscing about the words that Liu Ying whispered just now.

——I hope that one day, all the people in the world will be as intelligent as the young grandson of the Marquis of Beiping...

"Everyone in the world..."

"The law of abolishing books..."

"Bamboo paper..."

For a moment, Zhang Cang felt a flash of light in his mind!

From that ray of light, Zhang Cang seemed to see a future that was exciting, reverent, and inexplicably frightening.

It's a pity that the light is like a shooting star, fleeting;
Even though Zhang Cang tried his best to catch it, he failed in the end...

But within ten days, the news that the imperial court wanted to take the "examination" and Nashi spread throughout the hundreds of miles around Chang'an as the center.

Almost every day, dozens of hundreds of literati with different clothes and great ambitions came to Chang'an from all directions.

Soon, the process of the 'examination' was posted on the Lubu outside the prime minister's mansion.

This examination is divided into three parts in total, which are: written examination, interview, and final palace examination.

The first round of written examination is scheduled to be held on the first day of autumn and August in an abandoned camp in the west of Chang'an City; all Han family citizens who are dukes and above, aged between 40 and [-], and whose household registration is not in business registration , can sign up in the Department of Internal History.

And in this first round of written examination, no matter how many candidates there are, most of them will be eliminated, and only 100 people with the best scores will be retained to advance to the second round of interviews.

To put it bluntly, admissions are based on merit, and there is no precise qualifying line.

As for the second round of interviews, it is relatively simple and does not require candidates to make any preparations.

Because of the second round of interviews, although the notice did not make it clear, it was obvious that the focus of this round was appearance.

——In this generation, if you want to be an official, you need to have outstanding external conditions~
Improper facial features, too short height, too fat or too thin, will all be blocked from the gate of 'weaving'.

If it weren't for this, Fengchu Pang Tong, hundreds of years later, would not have been despised because of his ugly appearance at the beginning; the courteous treatment of Emperor Zhaolie would not have made Mr. Fengchu grateful, and would not hesitate to die to repay his kindness.

Therefore, for the second round of interviews, the candidates only need to wash up, participate in the most relevant manner possible, and then wait for the good text.

Of course, since it is an interview, it is inevitable to ask questions;

Where do you live~
What do parents do~
You will also be asked about what you do, whether you have a personal criminal history, family criminal history, etc.

And no matter how the examinee answers, the next step must be to cooperate with the internal history of the prime minister to conduct a thorough identity verification of the qualified candidates.

After confirming that there is no problem with the identity of the referee, and that he did not lie during the interview, it is the last hurdle: entering the palace for an audience.

So to put it bluntly, although there are three steps in this "examination", the only thing that candidates can change the result through hard work is the first level of the written test.

After passing this first level, what follows is to do one's best and obey the destiny; if one has not even passed the first level, then there is no further.

After realizing this, the young literati who had just arrived in Chang'an quickly settled down, found a place to stay, and then began the final sprint before the exam.

For this large number of intellectuals who poured into Chang'an, the Department of Internal History also attached great importance to it, almost according to the ratio of "every [-] candidates are equipped with a rank official" to solve the problems of the candidates.

——In this generation, one official directly manages 20 people, which is already an unprecedented value!
Exams are just around the corner, and the autumn harvest is approaching. The atmosphere in Guanzhong is peaceful and peaceful, including the hope for a better future.

The people in Guanzhong have shown unprecedented enthusiasm and anticipation for the future harvest, or for the performance of their nephews in the "examination".

But in the atmosphere where everything was thriving, a group of missions in strange costumes and accompanied by heavy guards broke the peaceful atmosphere shrouded in Guanzhong in one fell swoop.

——The Huns, once again sent envoys into the pass, and entered Chang'an...

·
"The Xiongnu envoy Huyan Gaduo, who is the Great Shanyu of the Xiongnu established on behalf of our Lord, respectfully asks the Emperor of Han whether he is safe or not."

Changle Palace, Changxin Main Hall.

Hearing the Qinzhong accent with a correct accent, Liu Ying couldn't help raising her eyebrows because she had expected that the Huns envoy would "speak Chinese".

As for the inside of the palace, the courtiers and ministers who had been "waiting" earlier also widened their eyes when they heard the word "Huyan", and immediately cast their cannibalistic eyes on the man who claimed to be the envoy of the Huns On the savage.

The Huyan family, also known as the Huyan family, is one of the four most prominent surnames of the Huns.

In the political system of the "Eight Pillars" of the Xiongnu Chanyu Court, apart from the Zuoxian King, Youxian King, Zuoguli King and Youguli King who have the qualifications to inherit Shanyu, there is the Xiongnu royal family—— Outside the control of the Di family, the remaining four positions of the left and right generals and the left and right big households are hereditaryly controlled by the "Four Huns" including the Huyan family.

Among them, the Lan family inherited the left-handed family, the Xubu family inherited the right-handed family, and the right general was inherited by the Qiao family.

As for the Huyan clan, hereditary control of the post of General Zuo.

With a little understanding of the Xiongnu's double-headed eagle policy and the "eight pillars" system, it is not difficult to find that among the eight pillars, the two most important positions are not the left and right virtuous kings, but the first heirs of Shanyu , the son of this generation of Chanyu: King Zuo Xian, and King Zuo Xian's eternal henchman: General Zuo.

Gai because compared with the second in line heir King Youxian, and King Youxian's dog-legged General You, what General Zuo needs to do can be said to be related to the future of the entire Huns.

And as the hereditary surname of the Huns who replaced the left general, the Huyan family left a lot of blood debts on the north wall of the Han Dynasty, so that every Han dare not forget the word "Huyan" for a day...

"Messengers come from afar to labor."

"However, even if the envoy came here on behalf of the Xiongnu Shanyu, he is no more than a foreign minister to me."

"For foreign ministers to face the emperor of Han, if I grant a seat, it will inevitably violate the rules of etiquette."

"May I ask the emissary to stand here for a while, and then go back to the post house to rest after the emissary has finished explaining Shan Yu's intentions?"

With an unquestionable tone, saying what seemed to be a discussion, Liu Ying raised her head and looked at Huyan Gaduo with a cold face.

"The messenger of labor speaks bluntly."

"Who is Shan Yu trying to humiliate my Han family this time?"

Saying this without concealing her disgust, Liu Ying narrowed her eyes meaningfully, and looked at Huyengado with a sudden coldness.

"The Xiongnu sent back the envoy, but Shan Yu once insulted the Queen Mother of the Han family, and left me as my mother was humiliated, so I can't bear the hatred of blood..."

"After a few years, Shan Yudang will not do the book insulting my mother twice;"

"Well······"

"So, this time, Shanyu wants to humiliate..."

"Is it supposed to be me?"

The cold words immediately made Huyan Gaduo sweat on his forehead, and even subconsciously looked away for a moment, not daring to look directly into the depths of Liu Ying's eyes!
For the Huns, especially the Huyan clan, the hereditary family of the "famous" general of the left, the officials of the Han family already hated the Huns, but they did not dare to explode because of the occasion;
After hearing Liu Ying's blatant threat, everyone in the hall immediately let go of their worries and started gearing up. It seemed that just waiting for Liu Ying's order, the entire Xiongnu mission could be killed on the spot!
Seeing everyone's reaction like this, Liu Ying was not in a hurry to stop it, so she could only look at the Huns mission under the imperial steps, who had already turned pale with fright.

——Liu Ying still hasn't forgotten that incident back then!

To be precise, I will never forget it!
Not only Lu Zhi, but also anyone who calls himself a "Han Chinese" will never forget such humiliation!

Liu Ying is convinced that even if in the not-too-distant future, the Han Dynasty completely defeated the Huns and even ruled the entire grassland, after hundreds or thousands of years, the incident of "Hen Gao Empress Lv Zhi being humiliated by the Xiongnu Chanyu Modun" would still be possible. It will never be forgotten by any Chinese nobleman!
Because forgetting means betrayal and the demise of a nation!

As the emperor of the Han Dynasty and the heir of Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ying should naturally show the attitude that a king should have, and treat anyone who claims to be a "messenger" with courtesy.

But as a son, as a Chinese, Liu Ying would never allow herself to be kind to the culprit after suffering such humiliation!

Regarding Liu Ying's anger, even though Huyan Gaduo had anticipated it, he couldn't help but panicked.

——Huyangado never expected that the emperor of the Han people, a doll who was just 17 years old, would actually rush in front of such a large audience and directly reprimand the Xiongnu Shanyu!
In particular, this Shanyu is a legend that is regarded as a god by the entire grassland: Shuda Maodun!
"Dare to be disrespectful to Shan Yu..."

"Humph!"

"Sooner or later, Shan Yu's singing will sound outside your capital!"

"The horseshoes of the Xiongnu warriors will definitely trample on your fields and crush every man's head into pieces of cheese!!!"

Roaring angrily in his heart, Huyan Gaduo also calmed down on the face, raised his head again, and looked into the depths of Liu Ying's eyes without fear.

——In this world, there is nothing that Shanyu cannot do!
With such belief, Huyangado looked at Liu Ying more and more resolutely.

"Report to His Majesty the Emperor."

"My lord Shan Yu didn't want to humiliate the Queen Mother back then, but just thought that by doing so, the war between the Han Dynasty and the Huns would be ended forever, and the people would enjoy eternal peace."

"After being rejected by the Empress Dowager, Shan Yu did not bring up the matter again. This time he sent foreign ministers here, and he did not forget to tell his ministers: On behalf of our lord, Shan Yu, I apologize to the Empress Dowager of your country."

Without looking sideways, he said the answer that had already been drafted, and Huyan Gaduo's expression darkened.

"The foreign minister brought my lord Shanyu's kindness here. Your Majesty, is this how you treat the kindness from the grassland?"

"Don't the emperor think that my great Huns don't have enough warriors, and I can't shoot Chang'an with the bows and arrows of the Huns!"

The grievous words immediately angered all the officials of the Han family in the hall, and they all reprimanded Huyan Gaduo.

Under the excitement of the crowd, there were even several elderly figures, ignoring the obstruction of the people around them, wishing they could jump out and beat Huyan Gaduo in court!
--threaten!
- A naked threat!
Huyan Gaduo is clearly threatening the monarchs and ministers of the Han family! ! !
Everyone could hear that Liu Ying, who was sitting on the imperial couch, also heard the threat.

"Oh······"

Unmoved, she gave a light 'oh', and saw Liu Ying raised her hand a little, and the Changxin Hall, which was still noisy and chaotic, suddenly became quiet.

"It turns out that this is your lord Shanyu's 'goodwill'..."

"Even so, the envoy doesn't need to say much."

"I ordered here to send guards to escort the envoy out of the customs."

"When we arrive at Dragon City, the envoy only needs to tell Shan Yu that the Emperor of Han wants to fight with Shan Yu, then he can..."

After saying this in an extremely relaxed and peaceful tone, Liu Ying turned sideways, propped her chin with her right fist, and looked at Huyan Gaduo leisurely.

"how?"

"The envoy wanted to go north on the same route, but returned without success, and was even more adept at initiating disputes. Was it Shan Yu's crime?"

"Or leave the palace temporarily, take a bath and change clothes, especially wash the mouth and nose repeatedly, and then enter the palace after the envoy can speak human language?"

Hearing Liu Ying say the last sentence with an extremely calm attitude, "Wash your mouth and come to see me again when you can speak human words", all the courtiers and officials in the palace turned their heads excitedly, and even looked at Huyan Gado Spit a few mouthfuls.

"Humph!"

"Hey barbarian! When there is no one in my Han family, the emperor is faint and the officials are treacherous?!"

"If it wasn't for His Majesty's disapproval, I wish I could cut your head off at Bei Que immediately!!!"

Hearing the scolding in his ears, he raised his head and saw that Liu Ying was still at ease, as if he didn't care about going to war. Huyan Gaduo's breathing became heavier and his chest heaved violently.

"Too deceiving!!!"

With an angry expression, he dropped a cruel sentence, and looked deeply at Liu Ying on the imperial couch, then saw Huyan Gaduo turned sideways, and shouted a Hun language.

Then, Huyangado took the lead and walked out of the palace with a flick of his sleeves. The rest of the mission looked at each other for a moment, and followed Huyangado, and walked out of the Changxin Palace together.

That is to say, at the same time when all the members of the mission were pushing out of the Changxin Hall, on the imperial steps, the Emperor Liu Ying suddenly lost his relaxed expression, and his complexion suddenly sank.

"Hou Yuanxun, who has made great achievements in Beijing, and those who are military commanders, captains and above, and courtiers with a rank of a thousand stones, will be transferred to the Martial Palace for discussion!!!"
