Cai Jing helped Zhao Ji vigorously develop school education, establish a school education network nationwide, and replace the old imperial examination system with school education.

Specifically, as an external school, the Imperial College (including Piyong) recruited a total of 3,800 students every year, and the imperial examination was abolished, and all the talents were selected by the school. The Imperial College reached its peak. Later, for various reasons, the imperial examination was carried out again.

The Imperial Academy is the cradle of talents in this era, and has cultivated a large number of officials and scholars for the rulers.

Cai Shen has barely enough military men in his hands now, but there are too few literati.

This greatly affected Cai's development and growth.

Moreover, this impact has a huge impact on politics, organization, finance, propaganda, intelligence, and even military.

Therefore, Cai still wanted to get some students to go to the Jinwu Army.

What can you do!

Cai Shen's foundation is too shallow and has nothing to do with those too students. In addition, he is too arrogant and unwilling to serve Cai Shen, Qiu Ba, so the matter has not been going well.

Cai Jing is the founder of contemporary Imperial Academy.

In the process of creating the Imperial Academy, all the officials in the education department were Cai Jing's direct descendants.

If Cai Jing is willing to help Cai Jian, Cai Jian will definitely be able to recruit enough literati who is at least temporarily enough for himself.

What a pity!

Cai Jing never let go of this.

Cai Chong, Cai Tao and others helped Cai Jian recruit some, but the few they introduced were a drop in the bucket compared to what Cai Jian lacked.

This is the thing that Cai is most worried about recently.

Unexpectedly, Cai still just asked Cai Jing to solve the problem at a critical moment.

Cai still couldn't help feeling very good!

Liang Shicheng's family also has a garden like Nanyuan.

This garden can be said to be equal to the South Garden.

Moreover, there is a stone forest in this garden.

The rocks on the stone forest are like ghosts, monsters, immortals, Buddhas, birds and beasts, and are all treasures in the world. If ordinary people get one or two of them, they can be praised as treasures, but in Liang Shicheng's garden, there are many pieces, piles, and forests.

Moreover, the stone forest is still stormy.

Needless to say, this stone forest must also come from the southeast and is in line with Gen Yue.

After passing the stone forest, it is a small lake.

The lake water is clear, like a mirror, planted with lotus and lotus, and fruit trees such as peaches, plums, pears, and apricots grow on the shore. It is said that when spring comes to the earth, flowers are interspersed. At first glance, the eyes are as gorgeous as embroidery, and the beautiful trees and flowers are all in sight.

It’s a pity that it’s late autumn now and I can’t see the picturesque beauty.

Let’s look at the towering pavilions of Liang Shicheng’s family, with brothel paintings, pearl curtains and beautiful houses, and dazzling gold and greenery.

Between the gardens, lakes and pavilions, there are hundreds of tables filled with warm, delicate and elegant porcelain, while the wine pots are all lotus petal-style warm-wine porcelain wine pots.

The person who knew the goods said in a low voice to the left and right, "Look at those porcelains, they are all produced in Ru kilns, and are beautiful in the sky. This set of lotus petal-style warm wine porcelain pots is bright and shiny, simple and elegant, indifferent and subtle, and profound in artistic conception. They are definitely the best among the best. These porcelains should be objects in the palace. I don't know if they were awarded to Liang Taiwei or... you know."

Among those exquisite porcelain, it is filled with fried chestnuts, gum dates, Hebei goose pears, Heshuo pomegranates, longans, lychees, olives, warm tangerines, kumquats, and hazelnuts.

The fine wine in those wine pots can be fragrant even without wind.

There are also hundreds of beautiful singing and dancing girls, like fairies descending to earth, scattered beside each bed to entertain guests.

This situation made everyone sigh at Liang Shicheng's wealth.

Only Cai was still watching coldly.

The Northern Song Dynasty is indeed showing unprecedented prosperity now, and many powerful people like Liang Shicheng have appeared in the city of Bianliang, Tokyo.

But who can look around the fields through this colorful wealth and prosperity to see the millions of migrants hungry for food and food?

They would not know that those who have been repeatedly touched the bottom line of survival are already unbearable and are ready to fight to the death with the gentry of the government.

In such a critical situation, they were also very eager to provoke international wars and seek flirting with tigers and wolves.

They were so desperate that this false prosperity would inevitably lead to a truly devastating blow. While they were living a life of red and drunkenness, they would never have thought that their good dreams would not last long, and that the pleasant scenery in front of them would be destroyed in the war, and that all the beauty they could see would no longer belong to them, including their lives.

"This is your last extravagant desire, cherish it." Cai still thought so.

The host and guest sit down.

Twelve dishes were served, namely: two cooked perilla fish, meat vinegar-supported sausage-supported sand fish, steamed lychee waist, milk-cooked sheep sausage, lotus duck, hand-washed crab, onion-splash rabbit, raw fried lungs, sheep head with weak juice, crab stuffed orange, fresh shrimp hoof sashimi, mandarin duck fried belly.

There is also a soup and soup: Baiwei Soup, Goose Palm Soup.

Everyone drinks, talks long and love...

Cai is still acting low-key at the dinner table.

When everyone left the table one after another to gossip, Cai still stood up and walked towards his target.

Soon, Cai still came to a tall and handsome young man.

When the young man saw Cai Jian coming, he quickly clasped his fists and said, "Brother Ziyin."

Cai Jian returned the courtesy and said, "Brother Xin, you are polite. You are four years older than me. How can I afford the word "brother"?"

Uncle Xin, who is the servant of the Longshenwei Hemen, who is in charge of the horse and military commander of the guards, said, "The master is the most respectful. I am a model for my brother to recruit Song Jiang with his own strength."

Cai still smiled and said, "If someone else says this, I will admit it. I believe you came from the northwest battlefield. You should understand the gap between the bandits and the tigers and wolves in the Western Xia. My military merits in suppressing bandits should not be considered a big deal in the Western Army, right?"

Liu Qi shook his head and said, "I have studied several battles that Ziyu has fought, and all of them are classics. Ziyu is brave and fearless of death. He is a strong army. Ziyu is a man who understands military affairs like his brother, and a strong army like Jinwu Army is also a leader in the Western Army."

Cai Shen said: "If you only praise me personally, I don't accept it, but your praise also includes the soldiers of the Jinwu Army, you can only accept it in full, because they are indeed the best subordinates, loyal, brave, good at fighting, obeying command, fearless of death, and strict military discipline. They deserve any praise."

Liu Qi did not think Cai still said it exaggeratedly, but said very envious: "It is a blessing to have such a subordinate."

The Hemen Office was in charge of the emperor's court meeting, and praised the etiquette of the emperor during the banquet. All civil and military officials were prime ministers, royal families were princes, foreign envoys and ethnic minority leaders visited the court. When they gave up, they were guided by their ranks and orders, praised them for worshiping and dancing, and corrected their losses. The Eastern Shanghemen was in charge of celebrating the ceremony and commemorating the ceremony, and the Western Shanghemen was in charge of comforting the ceremony and gaining reputation.

To put it bluntly, the people in the Hemensi are the guard of honor and the servant who runs errands for the emperor.

The emperors often regarded the children of martial officials as guards, studied etiquette in the palace, and after they became familiar with each other, they were appointed as guards of the same family.

First of all, this is a kind of favor for the military ministers - the servants of the Hemen, wearing gorgeous clothes, riding a tall horse, accompanying the emperor, and having a high grade (from the seventh rank), which can be said to be glamorous.

Secondly, this is also a kind of control over the military officials - any general who leads troops will send his brother to Tokyo Bianliang City as a patron and a patron. To put it bluntly, they are just a hostage. Once the military officer dares to lead the troops to rebel, they will be in different places.

Liu Qi's father Liu Zhongwu once became the commander of the Western Army after Liu Fa's death.

It was at that time, with the recommendation of Gao Qiu, that Liu Qi came to the prosperous Tokyo Bianliang City and became a decoration of Zhao Ji and an errand runner.

For many people who have no ambitions, this may be a kind of honor, and they will even be happy and immersed in it.

But Liu Qi is not a person with no ambition. He is skilled in martial arts and has unparalleled archery skills. In his early years, he followed his father Liu Zhongwu in the Western Army to fight south and north. In the battle with Xixia, he won many victories, which were quite feared by the Western Xia army.

Let me put it this way, if it weren't for being brought to the North Song Dynasty as a hostage in the city of Bianliang, Liu Qi would have become a general who was good at fighting. Perhaps he could have been promoted to a senior military officer like Cai Shen. He also had a group of loyal and brave, good at fighting, obeying commands, fearless and strict military discipline.

Therefore, for Liu Qi, his current life is a torment!

Liu Qi didn't know how long it would take for this torture. He didn't know when he would return to the battlefield to fight for the country. He didn't know when he would have a group of loyal, brave, good at fighting, obeying commands, fearless and strict military discipline.

Therefore, Liu Qi really envies Cai Jian!

Hearing the envy in Liu Qi's tone, Cai still directly threw out the olive branch and said, "What if I find a way to transfer Uncle Xin to the Jinwu Army?"

"What?" Liu Qi couldn't believe his own ears.

Liu Qi suppressed and excitedly said, "I'm not going to joke with me, how can the official let me go to the Jinwu Army?"

Cai still said confidently: "Brother Xin just says whether he wants to come or not. I will mediate the rest of the matter."

Although Liu Qi wanted to fly to the battlefield immediately, he asked calmly: "Then... I wonder what position Brother Ziyin is going to give me, so that I might go directly to the battlefield?"

Cai still put away his smile and said, "How about the acting commander?"

Liu Qi's breathing suddenly became a little rapid, and it is not difficult to see his nervousness and incredibility!

Fortunately—

Liu Qi has excellent psychological quality!

He immediately calmed down and said, "How does this make it?"

Cai asked back: "Do you don't have the confidence to lead the army?"

How could Liu Qi not have confidence? It was just that he was too forced to serve as the commander of the First Army with his level and resume, even if it was just a temporary generation.

Liu Qi took a deep breath and said, "Xie Zi is grateful for his love. If I can really lead the troops to fight on the battlefield and serve as the head of Yidu, I will be satisfied. I really don't dare to think about the commander."

Liu Qi's reaction made Cai still more confident in handing over Xingde army to Liu Qi for leadership.

In fact, there is no way for Cai to do this.

The Jinwu Army rose too fast, so fast that the speed of the Jinwu Army soldiers being promoted was far from being as strong as the Jinwu Army.

Let me put it this way, Cai still spent all his efforts to barely promote Zhang Xian and Wang De's position to the position of acting commander. He really couldn't create another military officer from the seventh rank.

As for Yue Fei, Zhai Xing, Zhai Jin and others who later joined the Jinwu Army, they were even less of their level.

In fact, Cai still tried to operate Wang Sheng or Niu Gao to promote the De Army on behalf of others.

But Wang Sheng and Niu Gao are not enough in terms of their merits or qualifications.

There was no way, Cai still could only find someone of enough level to command Xingde Army.

It was in this case that Cai Shen discovered that Liu Qi, a treasure who was as famous as Yue Fei in history, was actually used as an ornament for Zhao Ji and his current grade was still from the seventh grade.

This was simply the commander of the Xingde Army that God gave him to Cai Lan.

Therefore, whenever there was a chance, Cai still came to Liu Qi and directly extended an olive branch to the depressed and unsuccessful Liu Qi.

Cai Shen asked Liu Qi to command the Xingde Army. Besides, it was not Cai Shen who did what he said before and then swallowed it. The most important thing was that Cai Shen didn't want to leave a bad impression on Liu Qi in the future. Therefore, Cai Shen said: "Since it's not that you don't have confidence. It's not my own to use it. You can prepare. I'll send you to the Jinwu Army in a few days..."
