Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 709 Requirement and Favor

In summary, the Dachaohui is to continue to develop, suck grassland blood, train soldiers, and be ready to send troops to wipe out Tuyuhun at all times.Of course, Sweeping Tuyuhun is only known to some people.Before the official mobilization of troops, this kind of thing must be kept secret.

The six ministers of the Zhengshitang perform their duties and continue to assist the emperor in handling the government affairs.Six departments, the Ministry of Rites prepares for the imperial examination, the Ministry of Officials continues to rectify the administration of officials, the Ministry of Civil Affairs counts the population and acres of land in the world, the Ministry of Punishment perfects criminal laws, the Ministry of War calculates wars in temples, and the Ministry of Industry builds bridges, paves roads and digs canals to open rivers.Afterwards, the nine temples, each governor's office, prefecture, and county also performed their duties.

Changle Hall.

"so beautiful!"

Jin Yang is holding a snow-white pure-colored cat. This cat has heterochromatic eyes, one blue and one golden, which is really strange.The little girl's eyes are full of little stars.

"This cat's name is Chi Yu Xiao Fei Lian, and I entrusted someone to buy it from Hu Shang in the Western Regions." Li Zhiyun explained with a smile while looking at the imperial examination papers sent by the 'proposition group'.

Probably after seeing a kangaroo, Jin Yang wanted to raise one.Every time he met his daughter, he had to be nagged, and he also had a headache, so he asked someone to buy this cat for her to raise.

Empress Yang poured tea for the emperor, glanced at the cat, and asked with interest: "Husband, why do you call it Chiyuxiaofeilian?"

"The whole body is white, clean and transparent." Li Zhiyun simply explained.

"That's true." Empress Yang smiled slightly, and then looked at Jinyang again, "Why are you so silly, why don't you thank Your Majesty."

Before Jin Yang could speak, Li Zhiyun waved his hand, "Okay, let's go down and play."

"Hee hee, thank you, Father." The little girl bounced out with the cat in her arms, and several court ladies hurriedly followed.

"Your Majesty, don't spoil her too much."

"It's the same if you discipline her, but I dote on her." Li Zhiyun said.

Hearing this, Empress Yang laughed, "Let the concubines do the bad guys, right?"

Li Zhiyun chuckled, "I didn't stop you from pampering her."

"Forget it, the concubine dare not bear the crime of teaching."

There is no conflict between Emperor Zhenguan favoring the princess and Empress Yang disciplining the princess, because often the emperor will not interrupt when the empress disciplines the princess.

"By the way, is there any third lady?" Queen Yang asked.

"Yes." Li Zhiyun said: "How dare I forget her, or I will be upset by her crying."

"Hehe." Empress Yang couldn't hold back, she covered her mouth and snickered.

The third lady is the third princess Pixiu.At present, the emperor has only three daughters, namely Princess Yongning, Princess Jinyang, and the newly-canonized little princess.

The little princess, whose nickname is Pixiu, and whose first name is Li Ruyu, was born of Concubine Yang Shu. She was born in the ninth year of Wude, and now she is six years old, passing the dangerous age of premature death.

Li Zhiyun canonized her as Princess Yunyang.

Yunyang was young, and his temperament was not like Jin Yangye's, he just shed tears at every turn, so Emperor Zhenguan didn't dare to make this little guy cry.

"What about Yongning?"

"Of course there are." Li Zhiyun read one test paper, took a pen to write down his comments, and then continued to read the second one.

The three-yearly Chang'an exam will be held in February. When the news comes out, Chang'an and Guanzhong will be the first to see the excitement.

Last time, Han Yuan and Wang Dezhen, who were the first batch of welfare eaters, are now the magistrates of one side, and their future is boundless. Who wouldn't be tempted by this!

Guan Guogong.

"Are you two interested in participating in this imperial examination?"

Indoors, the three of them were kneeling and drinking tea.

Apart from Yang Gongren and Ma Zhou, the remaining person is Shangguanyi.After going round and round, Shangguanyi was still favored by Yang Gongren and he took him as a friend.After returning to Datang, Shangguanyi gradually became fair again, quite graceful.

"You Shao, what do you think?" Ma Zhou asked.

Shangguanyi, courtesy name Youshao.

Shangguanyi was not hypocritical, and said bluntly: "Although I have the heart, I can only participate in it next time."

"You Shao is planning to wait for the next time because he didn't participate in the county and state exams?" Yang Gongren asked.

"Yes." Shangguanyi nodded.He was floating on the sea before, so how could he have the opportunity to take the county and state exams.

Ma Zhou smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip of the warm tea.

"Then why don't you ask Yang Xiang."

"What do you mean?" Shangguanyi was puzzled.

Yang Gongren said: "Your Majesty gave me a recommendation quota, and I can directly recommend one person to participate in the big exam."

"So that's how it is." Shangguanyi didn't get to the bottom of it. This kind of thing can be understood after a little thought, so there's no need to delve into it.

He said, "What about Brother Ma?"

"Me?" Ma Zhou clicked his tongue, "I"

"You don't want to participate, do you?" Yang Gongren interrupted him, pretending to be angry, "I'll give you a drink, and that's how you repay me?"

"But I didn't take the county and state exams either, and besides, you only have one place."

"You just need to tell me if you want to participate."

Ma Zhou paused and nodded heavily.

"miss you!"

Official career is a man's dream.

A temptation no one can refuse.

"In this case, next, you should prepare for the exam, and I will prepare for you."

After saying that, Yang Gongren got up and left.

Looking at Yang Gongren's back, Shangguanyi sighed: "Now, I really owe a big favor."

"There will be a chance to pay back." Ma Zhou smiled indifferently, and turned to say: "Compared with such trivial matters, I am more surprised by the arrangement of the imperial examination by the sage. Although some people have directly recommended places to participate in the big exam , but it's just an opportunity. If you don't get [-] points in the exam, you won't be valued by the court.

It is in the hands of saints to select materials and select scholars. "

"Hmm." Shangguanyi said: "I heard that the imperial examinations are not limited to astronomy and geography, and the difficulty is not small."

"If not, how do you get talent?" Ma Zhou said, "This is also the reason why the sage decided to allow the top three scholars with more than [-] points to enter the six departments to observe politics."

Welfare is naturally attractive, but whether you can get it or not depends entirely on your own ability.

"No, I have to look for the test paper for the first big exam and write some." Shangguanyi couldn't sit still, stood up and bowed, turned and left.

Seeing this, Ma Zhou also shook his head and sang a small ballad softly.

Cai Guogong mansion.

"Yang Xiang, you are a rare visitor, please sit down quickly."

"Keming is polite."

The two sat down, the maid served tea, and quietly retreated.

After sipping tea and talking nonsense, we gradually got down to business.

"I'm here, not for anything else, but to ask for one thing." Yang Gongren said.

"What's the matter, Mr. Yang, but it's okay to say."

"Come here for the nomination quota in Keming's hands."

"You really want it?" Du Ruhui said in surprise, "I thought that what you said outside the Tai Chi Hall was a joke."

"It's not a joke." Yang Gongren said seriously: "There are two talented people, I really can't bear them to miss this grand event."

Hearing this, Du Ruhui didn't ask who those two people were, but stroked his beard silently and pondered.

In fact, they can nominate anyone for the quota in their hands, as long as they are not scholars who oppose His Majesty the Emperor.

But the question is, why should I help you?

Du Ruhui thought to himself that his relationship with Yang Gongren was average.

As if guessing what Du Ruhui was thinking about, he said, "If Keming is willing to help me this time, then I owe Keming a favor. In the future, I will repay it."

This price is not low, Du Ruhui was also a little surprised.

"Who can make Yang Xiang value him so much?"

"Two talented people."

Seeing that Yang Gongren was covering tightly, Du Ruhui didn't ask the bottom line, and said, "How about this, can you let me think about it for a few days?"

"Of course, there is still some time before the final exam." Yang Gongren said.

Du Ruhui was willing to let go of his thoughts, and Yang Gongren was sure to get that spot.
