Comprehensive Martial Arts: Read to become a sage, use martial arts to break the ban

Chapter 148 Great Confucianism and Repeat Offender

When Chen Deming came, Xiao Luo and Emperor Ming were both on the sickbed.

Xie Chun, as the former chief historian of the East Palace and the current servant of the Ministry of Officials, tried his best to persuade Zhang Changqing, the elder of the pavilion, to give Chen Deming the green light all the way, and hand over all the affairs of Chunwei to him.

On this day, Xiao Luo finally went to the morning court, leaving Chen Deming alone after the court dismissed.

"I have read Master's "Chun Wei Yi", and I feel very reasonable."

Chen Deming is Xie Xuan's uncle. He is more than ten years older than him. He is already an old man in his sixties. However, he has black hair, a ruddy complexion, and a tall and straight figure. He looks like he is in his prime.

Hearing Xiao Luo calling Master, Chen Deming shook his head: "There is only one Master in the whole world, so it is good for His Highness to call me Mr."

"Yes, Mr. Lao has been here for a while."

Chunwei is a general examination for all national candidates to participate in the capital. Participants must first pass the local rural examination before they are eligible to go to Beijing.

The township examination is held every three years in August in the autumn, also known as Qiuwei, and it is an examination that can be taken by all students and supervisors in the province.

Although the township exam is a local exam, it is extremely strict. There are three exams, each of which lasts three days and nights. Since there are time intervals between the three exams, it takes almost nine days and seven nights.

Therefore, the competition in the rural examination is very fierce, and some people even fail to pass the examination in their entire lives.

After the rural examination, there is the general examination. The general examination is hosted by the Ministry of Rites and held in the second year after the end of the rural examination. People from all over the country can participate, and there is no limit to the number of examinations.

In previous years, the examination was held in February, but this year due to Lan Yuehou's rebellion, it was changed to March.

Those who pass the examination are Jinshi, but the acceptance rate of the examination is extremely low, only about half of the passers.

Jinshi then enters the Tai Chi Hall and is assessed by the emperor himself, which is called the palace examination.

Officials can only be awarded after the palace examination, or stay in the central government to take up low-level official positions, or be released to other places, usually started by Bapin county magistrates and Qipin county magistrates.

This is the material selection system of the Northern Calendar, which is similar to other dynasties.

Xiao Luo doesn't intend to change this system. Before there is no better way, the imperial examination is the only way out for poor students.

Xiao Luo stood up from the dragon chair, walked in front of Chen Deming, bowed and said, "Mr. please advise."

Chen Deming accepted the gift calmly, and Fang said: "The imperial examination is based on talent. But what is talent today? You can only talk about it with eloquence, and talk about it on paper."

Xiao Luo was silent.

"What's more, after understanding the temperament of the examiner, when answering the questions, he would choose what the examiner likes to say."

Throughout the ages, guessing questions and betting on questions has always been like this.

"These candidates spend more than ten years or decades dealing with the exams. Apart from that, they just try to figure out how to be an official. How can they have the opportunity to understand the people's sentiments and improve their practice. So within a few years of being an official, all of them have become officials. Old oily son, either corrupt or negligent."

"What Mr. said is very true, but old habits die hard."

Chen Deming said with a smile: "Although it is difficult to implement the six arts of a gentleman, we might as well start from this session. In addition to the internal examinations of previous years, we will add an optional one. same promotion."

Chen Deming put forward a detailed plan in "Chun Wei Yi". He asked candidates to choose one of the six arts of gentlemen to perform, even a small branch of the six arts, otherwise they would not be awarded an official.

The six arts of a gentleman: ritual, music, archery, imperialism, calligraphy, and mathematics.

Li refers to etiquette, including sacrifices, funerals, military affairs, diplomacy, banquets and celebrations.

Music refers to music. In addition to ancient music, music, dance, instrumental music, and lyrics from various countries today fall into this category.

Archery refers to archery, except for bows and arrows, swords, knives, halberds, etc. related to martial arts, are all the same as shooting.

Royal Finger Riding is the simplest subject.

Shu refers to literacy, and Chen Deming joined calligraphy.

Mathematics of Mathematics, Chen Deming put the measurement of land, accounting and taxation, merchants trading, astronomy and calendar, etc. into this category.

When Xiao Luo saw it yesterday, he was taken aback. This is the same as both cultural and professional achievements.

"Mister, I agree with the idea, but the chief examiner of Six Arts may be difficult to find for a while."

This year's Spring Festival has already been postponed. If the examination system is temporarily changed and the search for an examiner is temporarily delayed, it will take a long time. Now tens of thousands of candidates from other places have entered Tianzi City. If it is postponed, troubles may arise.

"Your Highness, don't bother me. During the process of examination and grading, I believe that a suitable examiner can be found. Moreover, only the Jinshi who passed the examination will be left, and the candidates who fail will return home."

"Sir, you can take it step by step. If the Jinshi who passed the examination fails in the Six Arts, you can give another chance. If you can meet the requirements within three years, you can still be awarded an official."

Chen Deming's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly.

Then, Xiao Luo proposed the accompanying examination team system, in addition to the main examiner Chen Deming and two assistant examiners of Chunwei this time, seven professional accompanying examiners were added. As long as the candidate gets four votes, he will be considered passed.

The two discussed for a long time and determined the core regulations.

Xiao Luo acted resolutely, and called people from the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites into the palace. One was to recommend examiners, and the other was to promulgate a new system.

Although the officials of the two ministries were surprised, they knew the prince's temper well, so they dared not say no, and quickly went back to find a solution after receiving the order.

After finishing his work, Xiao Luofang asked Chen Deming: "Sir, why didn't my master come back?"

"He took my course and taught at Jixia Academy for my old man."

Xiao Luo felt disappointed, changing one for another was not considered a gain.

Chen Deming sized Xiao Luo up. This prince has extraordinary vision, decisive actions, and thorough consideration. He is indeed not someone to be taken lightly.

"Xie Xuan has taken in a good apprentice."

"Thank you sir for your compliment."

Chen Deming resigned and left.

Xiao Luoyuan wanted to drag him and ask him about the theory of Mohist school, but seeing that he had a lot of affairs, he had no choice but to let it go and talk about it after Chun Wei was done.

Xiao Luo went down to the palace, returned to the East Palace, and went to visit Xie Yuanfang first.

Xie Yuanfang didn't know that she had lost her martial arteries, she thought it was just a serious injury and she couldn't move, so she was practicing turning over hard.

"Don't worry!"

Xiao Luo quickly stopped him.

"Your Highness, I want to get well soon."

"You've been hurt for a hundred days, and you still need to take a good rest."

Xie Yuanfang had no choice but to settle down and recuperate.

Xiao Luo went to see Mo Xue again.

After getting along with each other for this period of time, Mo Xue became much more cheerful. After all, she was only a six or seven-year-old girl. Curiosity overcame fear, and she was playing shuttlecock with a few court ladies.

The body is like a swallow, and the face is like a cloud.Whirling feather dancing is as good as flying, jumping is as good as flying.

Maybe it's because the foundation of this body is too good, the shuttlecock made of golden pheasant feathers was kicked high by Mo Xue, and several court ladies snatched it for a long time, but they didn't snatch it once.

Seeing Xiao Luo coming, the maids all stopped to salute.

Mo Xue also stopped her feet, and shouted timidly: "His Royal Highness."

"It's a good kick, let Ben Gong also play one."

Mo Xue threw the shuttlecock, Xiao Luo kicked it into the air, and the shuttlecock flew straight into the sky, stunned everyone present.

After a long time, the shuttlecock fell from the clouds, before it landed, Xiao Luo kicked up again and sent the shuttlecock into the air again.

"Mo Xue, come and pick me up."

Mo Xue looked up, with excitement in her eyes, when the shuttlecock fell, she jumped up, stretched out her little feet wearing brocade embroidered shoes, and caught it firmly.

Then, she kicked hard, and the shuttlecock also rushed into the sky.

The court ladies shouted: "Mo Xue is so amazing!"

Xiao Luo smiled and said: "I will wear light boots for her in the future, embroidered shoes are not suitable for her."

Although he didn't know when Sikong Qianruo would be awakened, Xiao Luo still wanted to keep her vigorous vitality in this body.

Coming out of the East Palace, Xiao Luo came to the Imperial Prison.

Li Fanwen went to Qin Tianjian to protect Feixuan and the national teacher, Su Changhe had not yet returned to Tianzi, Su Gui and Xie Jiucheng were very busy, and only Wei Lang was left with him.

"Your Highness, all the prisons are recidivists. Do you want to bring more people?"

"No need, you wait for me at the door."

Wei Lang worriedly watched Xiao Luo walk down the dark prison.

This is a terrifying prison. Even in the daytime, the entire prison has no light, and is illuminated by torches inserted on the wall.

The imperial prison is only for important prisoners, and the defense is extremely strict. Now it is managed by Su Puppet. Without his token, no one can enter.

Except Xiao Luo.

He went down to the third floor and walked to the innermost cell, where Lei Wujie was imprisoned.

The cell was fairly clean, with hay on the floor, a kettle on the table, and a plate with half a steamed bun in it.

Lei Wujie's acupuncture points were tapped, and his hands and feet were shackled.

Seeing Xiao Luo, he rushed over violently, shaking the fine iron fence of the cell, and shouted: "You dog thief, how dare you come!"

"Why not?"

"You killed my master, I want revenge!"

"Are you capable of revenge?"

Lei Wujie continued to shout: "You are a sorcerer! A sorcerer!"

Xiao Luo looked at him quietly, and when he was exhausted from roaring, he slowly said: "Xiao Han abandoned you, do you still want to continue helping him?"

"He is my brother, I can die for him!"

"Speak lightly of life and death, if you die, your sister will be very sad."

"Bah, don't mention my sister!"

Seeing that he was stubborn, Xiao Luo shook his head and left the prison.

Prisoner asked: "Your Highness, how to deal with him?"

"I'm too full, I'll cut the food in half later."

"Yes."

"If he refuses to repent, he will be imprisoned for life."

Although he was an accessory used by Xiao Han, robbing the law field is a serious crime, Xiao Luo will not let him out, unless he is a tainted witness to prove that he was ordered by Xiao Han, and he can be punished lightly.

Thinking of Li Hanyi, at this moment, is she in Beiliang or Beimang?
As more and more applicants entered Beijing, the rooms in Tianzi City were filled to the brim, and the housing prices skyrocketed accordingly.

Many people came to Kyoto for the first time, Jiumu Qianjin Terrace and Diaolou Xiaozhu, many people went to the two places in groups after dark.

At this time, a group of candidates from Qingzhou were watching the beauties dancing on the Qianjin Terrace with great interest, and couldn't help but praise them.

"Brother Ye, you are the one who is well-informed and knowledgeable, and the beauties you picked are indeed alluring."

Among the examples, an older and burly man replied: "Brother Chen, thank you, Ye has only been here once, and he knows a little bit about the way."

"Brother Ye thinks, are the bearded girls from the Western Regions more beautiful, or the girls from Fusang Kingdom?"

Juzi surnamed Ye laughed and said, "Everyone has their own advantages, haha."

Some people don't believe it: "Is it really so powerful?"

Everyone laughed loudly: "There are no chicks among us, right?"

"Brother Ye, what do Fusang ladies say?"

"Extremely docile, let you do whatever you want."

Everyone felt itchy when they heard it, and after a few rounds of drinking, they picked girls one after another.

Juzi surnamed Ye sent them all into the room. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he stepped out of Qianjin Terrace and walked quickly to the front of an imposing mansion.

Between the two tall stone lions, there is a lantern hanging, desertedly illuminating the "Ye Mansion" on the plaque.

Ye Juzi poked around in the corner for a long time, and after confirming that there was no one on duty in front of Ye Mansion, he rushed a few steps and jumped into the mansion.

He was very familiar with the paths in the mansion, with many turns and turns, he quickly came to the backyard and ran towards an embroidery building with faint lights.

"Zuoyi, Ruoyi."

He called softly by the window.

Soon, the window opened and he jumped into the house.

Before he could stand still, a cold sword lay across his neck.

"General Ye, long time no see."

With a bang, someone blew on the candles in the room.

Ye Suying looked up, and the one holding a sword in front of him was Su Gui, and there were two guards in black robes in the room.

"Where's my daughter?"

He asked viciously, his palms gradually clenched into fists, but it was a pity that the golden armored swords were not brought into Tianzi.

"do not move."

Su Gui pushed the thin sword in his hand, and a string of blood beads came out along Ye Suying's neck.

"Where is my daughter!"

Su Gui said coldly: "Why didn't you think about your daughter before plotting rebellion."

"I have nothing to do with her. If something happens to her, I will kill the whole Tianzi!"

"If you really have the ability to slaughter Tianzi, we won't be talking here, let's go."

"Where to go?"

"Your Highness will give you a chance. You plead guilty and let your daughter go."

Conspiracy is the great crime of punishing the Jiu Clan. Ye Suying knew that Tian Zi had opened up a net, so he had no choice but to come. Rescuing his daughter was his only remaining belief.

When Su Gui handed Ye Suying's confession to the East Palace, he brought Ye Ruoyi along with him.

"Your Highness, I have promised to let Ye Ruoyi go."

"I respect your decision, but the death penalty is inevitable, but the living crime is hard to forgive."

Xiao Luo looked at Ye Ruoyi, this is a beautiful woman, the imperial doctor has treated her, she has been suffering from chronic diseases since she was a child, and she will not live for half a year.

"I heard that Ye Ruoyi's sword dance is the best in the world, are you willing to make up for your family's crimes?"

Although Ye Suying only has one daughter, there are hundreds of servants in the mansion and distant relatives, and the lives of these people are all in Xiao Luo's mind.

Ye Ruoyi understood her situation a long time ago, and asked lightly, "What should I do?"

"This year's Chunwei has undergone some changes, and several examiners who are proficient in temperament are needed."

Ye Ruoyi was greatly surprised, she thought for a while, nodded and said, "Sinner is willing."

Su Gui took her down and handed her over to the Ministry of Rites.

A few days later, the judgment of the Ye family came down: "Ye Su is the head of the eagle, three generations of blood relatives sit together, the adult males are exiled, and the females are filled into the teaching workshop, and the rest will not be punished."
