Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 355

Xu Qing rolled his eyes when he heard Li Yuan and Ouyang Yuan talking about the Qiankun Mirror above, but the others were confused when they heard it.When everyone was still wondering, Ouyang Yuan came down with a box and didn't even need someone to help him. It felt like he was ten years younger.

Ouyang Yuan came down and said, "Minister, I attach the proposal of Prime Minister Pei."

Fuck, you old bastard, what you said just now was so convincing, what did Li Yuan give you now, you are such a stupid fool?

I only heard Ouyang Yuan say: "My colleagues, I didn't expect to have Mo Di's ability. I was confused just now. My emperor is wise. As long as the organization is proper, this work will surely be accomplished."

With Ouyang Yuan's defection, those relatively old-fashioned Confucian scholars can't say anything. The rest of them were basically arranged by Pei Ji and the leader of his own group before. It's just a legalization process.The mouths of Confucian scholars are blocked, and there are very few people, and they are alone when they speak out.

At this point, it is necessary to determine the examiner, the examiner.Pei Ji suggested that since this is the army anyway, it is better to have the generals who are highly respected and respected be the examiners, and the new and cutting-edge generals be the examiners before selection.But the style of the labor examination is far inferior. It is only the chief examiner of the Ministry of Industry, who will serve as the supervisor and the examiner.

Li Yuan thought so, so he asked everyone to agree on the candidate.Xu Shiji is the examiner, Xu Qing, Xu Zhen, Lawyer Pei, and Luo Tong are the examiners of the four major martial arts exams. There is also a minister of the Ministry of Industry who is the examiner, and Xu Qing is the examiner. That is to say, Xu Qing participates in two exams. .

Everyone expressed no objection, but in fact they were helpless.Xu Zhen and Xu Shiji's father and son went to battle, Xu Qing carried the burden on both shoulders, lawyer Pei was the son of Pei Ji, and Luo Tong was the son of the late general Luo Shixin (unknown in history), Li Yuan's move was to expand his power again and stabilize his emperor's position. seat.

Xu Qing and others came out to thank each other and discussed the matter until noon, but it was all about how much money to spend, and the Minister of the Ministry of Households only needed to raise his head.Officials above Li Yuan's fifth rank went to eat in a garden, and the rest went to the next garden.Think of this kind of work-style banquet, where you eat boiled meat in white water, without onion, ginger and garlic, only a dish of sauce and a dish of salt aside, this is called elegant meal, and only scholar-bureaucrats can eat it.

But these things are gifts, including table carpets, bowls and chopsticks, and everyone can move them back after eating.Although the table and carpet are not very valuable, but the bowls and chopsticks are very valuable, silver bowls, white jade chopsticks.Xu Qing was embarrassed to take it at first, but later saw that Pei Ji had already taken it, and Cheng Yaojin went to the next table to get it. On the table, and then put it all in my arms.

The morning meeting continued in the afternoon, and Xu Qing couldn't get away, but Xu Qing was close, so he went to Xuanwu Gate to put away his things first, and then began to take a nap at the morning.Put it in your arms, it's not easy to sleep, isn't it?The court meeting in the afternoon did not discuss matters, but met officials from various places who came to report on their duties.Because some places are far away, the days when those officials came to Beijing are different.

In addition, envoys from several countries came to pay tribute, paid tribute to several rare animals, and were rewarded with a lot of items.

Apply for time and retreat.

Xu Qing was just about to go back to the Xuanwu Gate to guard the gate, but when he saw three young generals approaching, they all introduced themselves to Xu Qing. It turned out that they were Pei, Xu, and Luo who were the same examiners as Xu Qing.Xu Qing saluted Xu Zhen first, saying he was sorry for what happened yesterday, he smiled and said it was all right, luckily the horse he rode yesterday was not his own.

Lawyer Pei was speechless, but Luo Tong had some doubts about Xu Qing: "General Xu, among the four of us, you are the only one with the highest official position, but judging by your size, you can't beat many people. Where did you get so much military merit?"

Seeing his slightly dissatisfied eyes, Xu Qing thought for a while and replied: "I am not brave, but my subordinates are willing to use their lives. I don't kill people, but I can save tens of thousands of people, so I have merit."

Lawyer Pei's eyes lit up: "Those who attack themselves are useless, and those who are self-confident don't grow long. General Xu is indeed an extraordinary man, and I admire him."

Xu Qing said modestly: "Mr. Pei's seven orifices are well-versed, and the still water flows deep. His future achievements will definitely be higher than Xu's."

At this time, Lawyer Pei felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said he didn't dare.The four agreed that among the four examiners this time, Xu Qing was the leader, and they also discussed the content of the exam slightly, and agreed to take time to elaborate.

For the time being, the four chapters that have been agreed are swords and guns, bow and horse, martial arts, and formations. In addition, Luo Tong leads the examiner of swords and guns, Xu Zhen swords and guns, and lawyer Pei of formations. The martial arts is Xu Shiji, and what about Xu Qing?

Xu Qing didn't know anything, and he couldn't see the way to do it, so he came up with a way.He asked the three young generals, what would happen if there was only one person facing the enemy without swords, guns and horses?Captured by the enemy, how to come back?How to save yourself from an injury in the wild?If a general can understand these and give them to his soldiers, how much will it improve the self-survival ability of the army?

These problems were all encountered during the war, but I really didn't notice them during the daily training.The three young generals were selected as the chief examiner, certainly not all due to his father's strength, nor was he used against the sky like Xu Qing, but largely depended on his own ability.Otherwise, although they are high-ranking officials, Li Yuan would never entrust them with such a real position.

After hearing Xu Qing's few questions, the three young generals all admired Xu Qing. This is a benevolent general who loves soldiers like a son. The benevolent is invincible, why is he invincible?Because the soldiers under his command gave up their lives to repay the general's benevolence in the past, but also to help the general win the battle.Xu Qing's move not only improved morale, but also actually increased the survival rate of each soldier. In this era, fighting is largely determined by the number of soldiers. Whoever can stand the fight will win.

So, they asked Xu Qing what kind of subject this is, and Xu Qing replied: "This is the overall quality, and the previous four articles account for [-] points."

No, I have to explain what this [-]% is.

After discussing it, Xu Qing returned to Xuanwu Gate.Before approaching, Xu Qing saw a soldier standing guard on the city gate, and suddenly ran away, as if to report a letter.Xu Qing frowned, did something happen inside?
When Xu Qing approached, he could only hear shouts from inside, the slogans Xu Qing gave to Zhuge Yan yesterday, followed by the sound of footsteps, Xu Qing's complexion sank, and he thought: These people are hard Could it be that you are doing a face-saving project, and you only started running a few steps when you saw me come back?

With a mechanical sound, the gate went up, the Zhumen opened wide, and passed through the arched passage, but saw the dusty wind on the school field, the original team of [-] soldiers was running back and forth on the school field.

and is shouting:
"Military discipline is like iron, and will is like steel; surpass yourself, and become strong!"

"Glory of the Tang Dynasty, long live my emperor; thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, I will guard them!"
