Hee Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 378 No Ranking (Part [-])
At noon the next day, when the big exam was already in full swing, Yuan Xi invited Gao Shun in the back garden of the palace. Although the big exam was eye-catching and the whole city was looking forward to it, the process actually didn't require too much effort from him. Don't worry, with Tian Feng, Pang Tong, and Xin Ping, the three central ministers, and Hua Xin, Guan Ning, and Bing Yuan, the three great scholars, plus the protection of Shenwei and Habayashi's second army, there will be no problems.

It was the problem of the Huns. He wanted to remind him emphatically, and also to reassure Gao Shun. After all, this was Gao Shun's first battle since coming to Dayan.

"Boping, you should know the matter. Although this foreign war is not a life-and-death battle for Dayan, it is indeed related to Dayan's future and prestige. The Xiongnu is the old enemy of the Han Dynasty, so naturally it is my Dayan's. Enemy, the armies of the two tribes have been handed over to Yide and Yan Shuai. Your mission is to capture the Huns’ royal court. It is best to capture Huchuquan alive, because he is the only one in our army. It will go much smoother, and you must not be soft-hearted in this battle. The Eight Banners are built on the basis of blades and blood." Yuan Xi looked at Gao Shun at the side and reminded solemnly.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, there will never be any soft-heartedness for foreign ministers. Those who resist, refuse to accept, and talk too much will be killed." Gao Shun clasped his fists with cold eyes. It is the belief in the hearts of all generals.

"Okay, back then Marquis Wen made foreigners fearful. As one of his generals back then, you must be able to do it too. I have absolute trust in you alone. You are calm, calm, decisive, not lewd, not greedy for alcohol, not for nothing. The name is the talent of a general, so I will not send you any counselors, I believe that you can grasp it yourself, and I also believe that Boping, you have the stability of Wei Qing and the courage of Huo Qu, and you will surely win the flag." Yuan Xi said softly road.

"Thank you, King, for your trust. If I can't take down the court of the Xiongnu, I would rather die on the grassland." Gao Shun kowtowed to the ground moved.

"Okay." Yuan Xi nodded in satisfaction.

In the afternoon of that day, Gao Shun led the [-] troops of the First Legion to leave the vicinity of Yecheng in the name of changing defense, and headed towards Bingzhou in a hurry.

At this time, the big exams have all ended, and the scholars have returned to their residences, waiting for the results.

There are two places in Yecheng that attract the most attention, one is naturally the Dayan Palace, and the other is the Juxian Hall.

The Juxian Pavilion in Yecheng occupies a huge area and is magnificent. The three main halls stand proudly in front of it. Standing on them, it seems that you can overlook the world. It is very similar to the size of Youzhou, but it is more than double the size.

There are many rooms in the backyard of the three main halls. In one of the larger halls, Hua Xin, Guan Ning, and Bing Yuan, three great scholars and many scholars who have read poetry and books, are reviewing the examination papers for this time. , the outside was guarded by two rows of Shenwei troops.

When the night gradually fell, there were only Hua Xin, Guan Ning, and Bing Yuan in the palace, and the others left. There were three stacks of examination papers on the desk. After Guan Ning glanced at it, he suddenly sighed deeply. With a sigh of relief, he said: "Everything is over."

"It's too good, it's so good, don't mention our students, there are many, many of them here, they are much better than the three of you and me. The three of us are not qualified to rank at all. It's only a matter of time before the Great Yan prospers." Bing Yuan sighed. , In fact, he has already said it very euphemistically, so many big talents come to Dayan, which makes it even more difficult for the old man, who was already in decline, to regain his former glory.

Hua Xin smiled wryly, and slowly picked up an examination paper. After flipping through it lightly, he saw the four big characters of Zhuge Kongming written on it.

"Forget it, no matter what, we need to fulfill our responsibilities, two dear friends, let's talk about our opinions! The king is still waiting," Hua Xin said.

Guan Ning's expression froze, and he said, "Someone thinks that No. 1 must be Yu Liang."

"No, no, although Yu Liang has outstanding literary talents, he is too cautious in his description of the government of a government. No. 1 feels illegal. He can connect the government of a country with the government of a government. Governance, especially his understanding of Confucianism, Legalism and Soldiers, is rare in this world," Bing Yuan shook his head.

Guan Ning frowned, and said: "Confucianism is the orthodox tradition of the Han Dynasty. Although Fazhi is familiar with all three methods, there is a clear preference for military strategists in the words and expressions. How can it be the number one?"

"In today's troubled times, it is natural to use soldiers as a force, and he combines the benevolence of Confucianism and the strictness of law, which is definitely a groundbreaking idea," retorted Bing Yuan.

"The number of soldiers is unknown to the country, and the country should govern the world with Confucianism and peace, so that it can be a good minister," Guan Ning continued.

"Young An should know that a good minister is not a good minister," Bing Yuan said seriously.

Looking at the two people who suddenly started arguing, Hua Xin smiled slightly and said, "You and I each have our own opinions, and the top three kings will make their own decisions. We are just speaking out of our own opinions, and I feel that Zhuge Kongming is the one who deserves it." , without a doubt number one, this person has an amazing talent, the glory of Zaifu, his theory of the way of a family, makes a certain person feel ashamed, and his future achievements will far surpass us."

When Guan Ning and Bing Yuan heard this, they were immediately helpless. The three of them had three thoughts. Although their selection of essays was absolutely fair, they couldn't help but prefer what they had learned.

"Actually, apart from these three, Wang Xiang, Xie Yan, Huan Fan, Linghu Jun, Ma Liang, etc. are all outstanding, but there is a thin line between them, so leave it to the king!" Hua Xin continued.

Guan Ning and Bing Yuan nodded lightly. There are too many outstanding talents in the big exam this time.

"How are the three great scholars?" At this time, Tian Feng walked in with Pang Tong and Xin Ping, and asked with a smile.

"Left Prime Minister, I'm ashamed. Although fifty people were selected, they are indeed not ranked," Hua Xin said with a wry smile.

"There is such a thing. It seems that countless talents have come this time. Good, very good." Tian Feng suddenly became happy. If he can't be ranked, it means that everyone is excellent. This is definitely the best for Dayan news.

"The three great scholars, I don't know how the four scholars from the Xun family and the Chen family are?" Xin Ping suddenly asked with concern.

Hua Xin's expression became condensed, and he said, "I waited for the three of you to pay more attention to those four. If they are normal, they are all extraordinary, but if they are compared with some of them, they are far behind, and it is impossible to enter the front line." Three, even the top ten is a problem”

"Yes, they are not enough," Guan Ning shook his head seriously.

"These four are obviously not the best talents in the two companies," Bing Yuan also said.

"This!" Xin Ping couldn't help looking at Tian Feng. These two families will be of great help to the king in the future.

"No problem" Tian Feng waved his hand indifferently, no matter how strong these two are, they are not as strong as the King, not as strong as Dayan, and they are even far behind, saying that although the ranking is important, it cannot fully represent the future.

"Three Great Scholars, although you didn't rank among them, you do have one. I guess this is what you like the most." Pang Tong suddenly pointed to the bamboo slips held by the three of them, and asked expectantly.

"That's right, You'an chose Yu Liang from Jizhou, Genju chose Fazhi from Yizhou, and the only choice for a certain person was Zhuge Kongming of Jingzhou. I can't imagine that there are such geniuses in the world," Hua Xin sighed.

"Ziyu, you can't say that. Zhuge Liang is very good, but ours is not bad at all," Bing Yuan suddenly dissatisfied.

"Haha, the three don't need to compete, the king will make a clear decision." Tian Feng smiled and was not dissatisfied at all because of his son's failure. He knew that his son's talent could only be regarded as above average.

Pang Tong, who was at the side, immediately smiled knowingly when he heard Hua Xin's evaluation of Zhuge Liang, and at the same time became a little curious about Jizhou Yuliang and Yizhou Fazhi. The fact that these two were able to fight Kong Ming showed how extraordinary they are.
