One Thought Feixian

Chapter 727 The Imperial Examination Begins

The will of heaven is the will of the people, and the mind of heaven is the will of the people.

Jiang Yi strongly agrees with these words. Looking at history, he can find countless examples to prove that this is the case, which is beyond reproach.

Jiang Yi wants to rule the world with his merits, kill demons everywhere, eliminate harm for the people, and he also wants to win the hearts of the people, and what the people want is God's will.

Jiang Yi continued to read this "Bamboo Garden Notes", his eyes became brighter and brighter, it was wonderful.

The cover of this "Bamboo Garden Notes" is very new, and the paper is clean and white. It is not an ancient book, nor is it the scriptures, strategies and theories that scholars need to use in scientific research. , which seems to be casual.

Even so, it contains a lot of incisive language, which hits the nail on the head and points out many principles of governing the country.

Turning to the last page of the book, I saw a line of inscriptions in the lower right corner of the writing: Pang Tiandu, Qingtian for one year!
"This "Bamboo Garden Notes" was originally written by Pang Tiandu in the first year of Emperor Qingtian's accession to the throne." Jiang Yi was shocked.

Today is the 11th year of Qingtian, and ten years have passed since this book.

Ten years ago, Emperor Qingtian destroyed the Dali Kingdom and inherited the great power. It was the time when the government was in harmony with the people and all wastes were prosperous. Stormy.

This grand master, who is in a high position, naturally devotes all his energy to assisting him, so he writes this book "Bamboo Garden Notes" here and here.

"This book contains Grand Master Pang Tiandu's spiritual thought and the theory of governing the country. I carefully speculate on the essence of it, and then integrate these things into the article and explain it during the scientific examination. I will definitely gain an advantage. In this way, the chances of competing for the No. [-] pick will be much higher.”

There was a gleam in Jiang Yi's eyes, and he immediately made a decision.

There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people.

After Jiang Yunlan's guidance, Jiang Yi has made up his mind to compete for the No. [-] Scholar position, but the No. [-] Scholar position is not so easy to obtain, and he does not have absolute confidence in winning it, otherwise he will not be locked in the room Study hard for a day and review old lessons.

The Central Dynasty has thousands of academies, and the number of talented students is countless. Many of them have been studying hard for ten years, and have already mastered moral articles. They are full of knowledge, talented, and eloquent. In the scientific examination, he showed his talents and became a blockbuster.

The position of champion is like a single-plank bridge, only enough for one person to pass, but a large group of martial arts masters are standing at the head of the bridge, and no one is willing to give in. In the end, they will inevitably get bloody. Fall off the bridge.

One can imagine how fierce the competition is.

Jiang Yi was in the palace when he was a child, taught by a famous teacher, and later went to Dream Soul Sect, no one taught him, so he could only study by himself, speculate and understand in his own way, until now.

After all, he is not a well-behaved scholar, and almost puts his mind on cultivation. There are many people who are more knowledgeable and knowledgeable than him, but why should he compete with these people for the top spot?

Only by relying on his mind, after all, he is a powerful ghost, one thought can produce countless whimsical ideas, and he knows how to be flexible.

This imperial examination was unprecedented, and the chief examiner was this Grand Master, but not all candidates' examination papers would be seen by him.

After these examination papers were handed in, they first had to go through a series of screening by the examiners, and then selected good articles from among them before submitting them to Pang Tiandu for him to distinguish the good from the bad.

Most of the officials and civil servants of the Central Dynasty are students of Pang Tiandu, and the schools of thought must be similar. As long as Jiang Yi understands this "Bamboo Garden Notes" thoroughly, the articles he writes will surely pass five years. Guan, beheading six generals, fell into the hands of Pang Tiandu, and was seen by him.

As for whether he can win the championship in one fell swoop at that time, it depends on God's will.

Jiang Yi just did his best and listened to God's will.

"Those students trained by the academy, even if they are talented and well-educated, they just study hard. If they read rote books, they are so good at writing. If you can fall to the bottom, you won't even win a single fame in the end!"

The imperial examination is not a simple exam. It is very knowledgeable. It is extremely important to try to figure out the examiner's school, thinking, and preferences, and then make a fuss.

Jiang Yi thought about this clearly, so he had great confidence in this scientific examination, and then opened the "Bamboo Garden Notes" again, thinking word by word.

... "Miss, that "Bamboo Garden Notes" was written by the grand master when he was meditating in the bamboo garden, and it has been received in the bookstore. It has been dusty for a long time. Why did you take it out again and put it back in the bamboo garden? garden?"

In the Grand Master's Mansion, Tweety asked with a puzzled look.

"It's nothing. That book, named "Bamboo Garden Notes" by my father, should be placed in the bamboo garden to be worthy of the name." Pang Qiuwan said lightly.

"I don't know if Mr. Li Feng can read that book. If he didn't, then he can only blame him for his bad luck. If he did, he should be able to learn something from it. By then, with his knowledge, He should be able to get a job title and be reused by the court. In this way, he will know my favor and must be grateful, and I will subdue him and recommend him to Brother Dao."

She planned it in her heart.

Although Huangfudao drove her back to the capital, she still thought of Huangfudao in her heart. After so many years, it had probably become her habit of thinking. It just set off layers of waves, but it still couldn't change her mind.

Along the way, she could see that Jiang Yi is a talent, much more valuable than Hu Yunsheng, and she must be firmly grasped, so she went to the Ruyi Building to invite her in person, and carefully prepared it. Out of arrangements.

Pang Qiuwan is a smart woman. If her plan is applied to ordinary people, it will be good, and it is all under control.

But it's a pity that Jiang Yi is not an ordinary person, far beyond her imagination, so that her life deviates from the original track and goes further and further towards a road of no return.

Of course, this is something.

At this moment, the entire capital city is shrouded in the tense atmosphere of the imperial examination, which is very different from the past.

Anyone who comes to Kyoto can clearly feel this atmosphere.

Time, in the interlacing of pots and cups, in the sound of singing and dancing, in the sound of dogs and horses, in the sound of reading books, quietly flows by.

Three days passed.

In the 11th year of Qingtian, the first day of March, this is the day when the imperial examinations of the Central Dynasty opened.

This imperial examination is the largest since the founding of the Central Dynasty, and it is also the one with the largest number of participants.

Candidates in the past had to go through rounds of selection in various states and provinces. After obtaining the qualifications, they could come to Kyoto to take the scientific examination. Therefore, the number of candidates was not large, at most tens of thousands.

But this time, Emperor Qingtian issued an order that as long as the age is not more than 30 years old and has obtained official documents, no matter how high or low, everyone can participate in the scientific examination.

On this day, almost from the middle of the night, the sky was still completely dark, and the Nine Grand Canals were shrouded in fog, and you could not see your fingers. Along the official roads, a long dragon is formed.

The nine city gates of the capital city were also opened ahead of time, the wheels were rolling, people were coming and going, and there was a lot of traffic. All the candidates got up early, washed up, and then entered the city one after another, approaching the examination room.

Shouts, yells, footsteps, horses, crowds of people, occupying all the wide streets, countless chilling soldiers, wearing bright armor, majestic, shouting loudly, maintaining order.

All the city guards in the entire capital were mobilized, with tens of thousands of people, scattered at every street intersection in Kyoto, with weapons in their hands, dignified and strict, maintaining order, and preventing any accidents from happening.

Such a state ceremony, if someone dares to take the opportunity to make trouble, the light ones will be arrested and imprisoned, or the serious ones will be killed on the spot. The rules are so strict that it is unimaginable.

Even the princes and nobles, the relatives of the emperor, have to follow the rules, without any privileges.

The examination room for this imperial examination was set up in the largest institution of learning in the Central Dynasty, Guozijian.

At this moment, with Guozijian as the center, almost all the streets are occupied by candidates. The number of people is amazing.

"There are too many people here to take the imperial examination!" Ge Cufang said with a frown.

Wen Hongyu, Lu Yan, Gu Heng, Fan Ruhua, Ying Ning, Meng Chang, Xu Rong and others all showed surprise on their faces when they saw such a scene, and surrounded Jiang Yi to avoid being crowded by the crowd.

"The Central Dynasty and the Desolate Race are at war. I'm afraid there are not so many people. This is an army of one million scientific examinations. Can the examination room accommodate so many people?"

Fan Ruhua exclaimed.

These candidates are not all poor scholars, poor scholars, there are also many sons and gentlemen who come from rich families, rich clothes and fine food, sitting in carriages, sedan chairs, and there are servants around them, plus many people who come to join in the fun , As a result, the number of people increased sharply. At a glance, what you saw was a mass of black heads.

"It's still early, and the gate of the examination room has not yet opened. Everyone is afraid of delaying time, so they crowded here early, and it turned into the current scene."

Jiang Yi changed into a silver-red dress, with a jade crown and hair, and cloud shoes on his feet. The whole person is facing the wind like a tree, radiant and confident.

In the past few days, he has repeatedly speculated about the "Bamboo Garden Notes", and he has fully comprehended the spiritual thoughts of the grand master, so his confidence has greatly increased, and he has shown another look.
