Chapter 277 Luoyang Grand Event
Luoyang, Yuan Mansion

The courtyard was full of young Yuan family disciples. They were headed by Yuan Shao, standing separately. Yuan Shao was the most outstanding young generation of the entire Yuan family, and was also the leader of young scholars in the entire Luoyang area. He wanted to participate in this event. For the assessment, of course, the children of the Yuan family also participated in the assessment together with him. Including Yuan Shao, there were five people in total, and the other four were Yuan Ji, Yuan Yi, Yuan Yin, and Yuan Xu.

The five of them want to attend more lectures under Yuan Feng's school these days, and know something about this assessment. Of course, Yuan Feng will not tell them what the questions are, but he can still explain some subjects to be assessed. Things to think about and so on.

However, the five of them stood helplessly in the courtyard. Except for Yuan Shao, the rest of them lowered their heads. The violent roar came from the study, which made them even more afraid.

"What did you say? You don't participate?!"

"Why don't you participate?!"

Yuan Feng roared angrily.

"I want to join the Northern Army," Yuan Shu said solemnly.

"Northern Army? Heh, Northern Army?" Yuan Feng sneered and said, "What do you do in the Northern Army? Are you a soldier? How did Mr. He teach you? Why don't you want to enter the temple because you are a disciple of Situ?"

"In this life, I only have two major wishes. One is to complete the work of my master, and the other is to enter the Northern Army. It is not my wish to defend my great Han rivers, mountains and temples." Yuan Shu said, put down the ram in his hand, and put the He untied his saber, handed it to Yuan Feng, and said, "If I offend Father, Father will use this sword to kill Shu, otherwise, Shu will not obey Father's words."

Yuan Feng stared at Yuan Shu's firm eyes, threw the sword on the ground viciously, and cursed: "Zhuzi! I won't say more!"

He went out angrily, and wanted to teach the rest of Yuan's disciples. Yuan Shu picked up the saber on the ground, hung it around his waist, adjusted his clothes, picked up the ram on the wooden case, and put it in the In the package, he swaggered out. When he walked out of the study, the entire courtyard was silent. Yuan Feng didn't look at him, but the rest of the children were all staring at him.

"Hahaha, a gentleman should be a sword, a man should be a murderer!" Yuan Shu held the hilt of his sword, laughed loudly, and walked out of Yuan's mansion.

Among the young and strong who came to recruit soldiers, Yuan Shu was particularly conspicuous.

The officer who was registering everyone's names looked up at him from time to time. When it was Yuan Shu's turn, Yuan Shu walked over, took out the pass, and passed it over. The officer looked carefully, nodded, and registered his name in the register. , let him go in, Yuan Shu followed a few people, and walked to the school field of Xin Daying. There were soldiers of the Northern Army practicing, and Yuan Shu couldn't help but be fascinated.

Because the soldiers of the North and South Army have been fighting for many years, and many of them are already old, so the emperor wanted to recruit again to renew the soldiers of the North and South Army, so Yuan Shu came to join the army. As a soldier, Yuan Feng only needs to tell Duan Jiong that he can start as a military officer, but Yuan Shu is not willing to do so.

He felt that one day, he could become the champion of the great Han, the great general, just like Duan Jiong, attacking the Qiang people in the north, beheading the chieftain, and showing off his power outside the Great Wall!

At the same time, the assessment is coming soon. Luoyang Lane is crowded with examinees from all over the country, making the already prosperous Luoyang even more lively. Luoyang has undergone two overhauls in ten years, making the The city continued to expand, but even so, Luoyang City was still extremely crowded, with a sea of ​​people, vendors, examinees, common people, soldiers, and merchants from outside the Great Wall.
There are many scholars who have never been to Luoyang. After seeing such a scene, the excitement in their hearts cannot be expressed in words. Wen Renxi also fulfilled his promise and provided accommodation and food for these candidates. , I still haven’t used the money in the treasury. Sometimes, the emperor wonders what the treasury of my big man should look like!

All these years, only the money went in, never went out
Even if there is a catastrophe in the local area, the local government will pay the money, and the treasury's money will be tightly held by a certain traitor, and they won't be able to take a single cent away!

The assessment period is gradually approaching. During this period, the Son of Heaven traveled in micro-clothes several times, just to see the scholars participating in the assessment. Of course, he went out as a scholar who was preparing to participate in the assessment. Luoyang set up several sage halls to provide food and accommodation for the scholars. The aristocratic families have their own accommodation in Luoyang, so they were unwilling to come here.

However, later, several priests from Taiyuan College came here to give lectures, and some scholars exchanged knowledge here, which attracted the children of those rich families. As soon as he walked in, an official came to check his identity. After confirming his qualifications as an examinee, he was allowed to enter the building and prepared food for him.

He found a place and sat down on his knees. The scholars were having a heated discussion, and he listened quietly.

He was sitting like this, but he attracted the attention of the people around him. After all, he was wearing a scribe robe, but he couldn't hide his nobility and majesty. After noticing the gaze of the people around him, the emperor turned his head and said with a smile : "I'm Huaixiang Hou Songqi, I don't know if you recognize me?"

Hearing this, the young scholar cupped his hands and said, "So it's the queen's younger brother. You and I have never met before, but I saw that you are very imposing and noble, so I took a few more glances and hoped that you will forgive me!"

"No problem, no problem, dare to ask your name?"

"People from Dongwuyang, Xiadong County, call it Chen Gong, and the name is Gongtai!"

The emperor nodded and said: "You are also here to participate in the assessment." Chen Gong said with a smile: "My family is poor, and no one is willing to recommend it. I heard that the appointment and dismissal of officials will be assessed. I think I can show my ambitions, so I came here .”

"It's just that you are a gentleman, why do you want to participate in the assessment? If you want to become an official, it will be easy for you."

"Hey, that's not the case!" The emperor shook his head and said, "I have talent in my own right, so why use the status of my relatives to be an official? Could it be that you think my talent is not enough to be judged with you?"

"Hahaha, that's not what I mean. I'm just a little confused."

Chen Gong said with a smile, he picked up the wine cup from the wooden case, drank it suddenly, then poured another cup, handed it to the emperor, and said: "Please drink this cup, and it will be an apology for the king."

Before the Son of Heaven took it, Zhang Yun beside him couldn't stand anymore, approached, and said, "My young master can't drink alcohol!"

"Hey, what's the problem if you don't have a drink?" The emperor turned his head and said, Zhang He was taken aback, and walked down helplessly, staring at Chen Gong. The emperor took the wine cup and drank it down. Chen Gong looked around, and he noticed that there were dozens of people behind him, some wearing scholar's clothes, some servants, or guards, all staring at him closely, secretly guarding this person's side.

Chen Gong sneered in his heart, but it's not right for a little foreign relative to be so ostentatious!

Chen Gong was startled, his eyes widened, he looked at the emperor beside him, he quickly straightened up, his expression became a little restrained, the emperor put down the wine cup, and saw the change in this person at a glance, the emperor laughed He stood up, and said: "Gongtai is very smart. If you can pass the assessment, maybe you and I can meet in the palace. I heard that the last official will have to face the saint."

Chen Gong cupped his hands immediately and said, "Thank you...jun!"

"Okay, okay!" The emperor walked out with a smile. After seeing him walk out, Chen Gong's face was full of joy, and his whole body was trembling with excitement. He immediately got up, went back to the room, picked up the book and read it again. Get up, I can't live up to His Majesty's high expectations.
