Chapter 42: Literary and martial arts

His character, prestige, and talent are all first-class in the court, and he has a well-known minister. The people he recommends not to mention Ruizong, even Princess Taiping, who doesn't like him, will not make things difficult for him. This is a rare opportunity. How many people have sharpened their heads and are looking for such opportunities!

Chen Wanrong had never thought about it when he entered the court. He thought about how to do chemical engineering all day long. He was stunned when he heard this: "I, this matter..."

Song Jing looked at Chen Wanrong's mysterious look and said, "If you agree, I will recommend it to the emperor. If you serve the court, then you want people and money, isn't it easier than if you do things among the people?"

Chen Wanrong understood the benefits, but a pie fell from the sky, or a great thing that hit the mouth, which made people unacceptable for a while. Chen Wanrong touched his forehead and said, "Prime Minister, this matter is too big, I have to think about it."

What Chen Wanrong thought of was much better than the future described by Song Jing!

The Tang Dynasty attached importance to science and encouraged science and technology. Compared with later generations who denounced science and technology as "strange tricks" as "parents" can be said to be "parents". If Chen Wanrong really wanted to serve the court, he could establish a solid position with soap alone. After his status was stable, Chen Wanrong could let go of his hands and feet and do everything he knew, which would shine and have a very big impact.

Li Longji will ascend the throne soon. At the beginning of the throne, Li Longji worked hard to govern and would definitely highly praise technology. Chen Wanrong would not even have problems even if he puts the physics and mathematics knowledge he knew to teach at the Imperial College. People like Gao Jian who are obsessed with investigating things must come to hear about it. Needless to say, how much impact this has, it goes without saying.

If you are not satisfied, Chen Wanrong can go further and suggest that Li Longji establish a special science and technology authority and encourage scientific and technological innovation. If so, what Chen Wanrong wants to change is not only the academic structure, but also the status of science and technology, but will change the historical process. After hundreds of years or even thousands of years, people will no longer deny technology as "strange and ingenious skills", and they will not travel through time for themselves.

But this fact is too great. Chen Wanrong was not mentally prepared at all. Although he had lived a little bit, he still couldn't make a decision. He had to make a good idea before talking about it.

How precious is Song Jing's recommendation? Chen Wanrong didn't even speak in one word. Zheng Qing, who has always respected Chen Wanrong, couldn't help but give him a blank look. If it weren't for the fact that Song Jing was in front of him, he might have said something ignorant of etiquette, "Brother Chen, have you kicked the donkey in the head?"

Looking at Chen Wanrong, Song Jing nodded slightly, not without appreciation: "Song Jing is still a little famous in the court. How many people vote for me to recommend me, I, Song Jing, declined one by one, but my friend refused to agree. It's really rare!"

This is the truth, but Chen Wanrong has to think it through and say: "The Prime Minister's good intentions are appreciated by the people. I have already thought about it and give the Prime Minister another reply."

"Okay! It's up to you!" Song Jing nodded and said in praise.

A noise came outside the house: "Get out of the way!" Someone shouted loudly.

"Sir, please stay. The Prime Minister has an order. No one can be put in here!" The soldier begged in a low voice.

The man snorted coldly and said, "As the Minister of Rites, I am the Minister of Rites, and I am not allowed to stop me." The shouting was like thunder and very imposing, but the soldiers did not let him go.

Song Jing snorted coldly and shouted: "Tang Yang, I have the energy to vent my anger on me, so I don't have to go out to the soldiers. They are orders to do things." Song Jing stood up and walked to the door.

Chen Wanrong turned his head and saw an official wearing a purple robe with a goldfish bag standing outside the door, with an angry look on his face. When he saw Song Jing's face, the anger on his face faded, and he clasped his fists at Song Jing: "Tang Shi has met the Prime Minister."

After holding his fists and giving a brief greeting, Song Jing asked, "Master Tang, if you don't do a job in the court, what's the matter with you when you go to the Imperial College?"

"According to the princess's order, we will assist the prince in the assessment, and ask the prime minister to make some convenience and let the officials go in." Tang Shi clasped his fists into the sky and brought out the great god Princess Taiping.

Yesterday, Chen Wanrong and Chen Zairong said that Princess Taiping of the Imperial College would definitely be involved in one move. As expected, someone was sent. However, Princess Taiping did not expect that the prime minister was in the formation, and her people might be in trouble. Logically speaking, although this assessment is of great importance, it is enough to have a prince, and there is no need to send Song Jing. Ruizong should have thought that Princess Taiping would intervene, so he sent Song Jing, the prime minister who was afraid of others, to take charge.

Song Jing was unmoved at all, as if Princess Taiping's name did not exist to him. His face darkened and he shouted, "Mr. Tang, the emperor has the final say in the Tang Dynasty. If you have an imperial edict, I will let you in. If there is no imperial edict, don't blame Song for not recognizing anyone. I will assist the prince in accordance with the emperor's will to maintain order here. Anyone who breaks the law without permission must be dealt with according to the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty. Lord. As the Minister of Rites of the Tang Dynasty, what crime should you be punished by the law?"

Tang Jun was very dissatisfied, raised his head and shouted, "Song Jing, I respect you as a number person, but the princess asked me to come, so I will come! If you have something to do, go and talk to her."

He kept talking to Princess Taiping, but he didn't expect that Princess Taiping's title would scare others, but he just couldn't scare Song Jing. When Ruizong ascended the throne, Song Jing submitted a memorial, asking Ruizong to place Princess Taiping to Luoyang to prevent her from interfering in the government. Among so many ministers, only Song Jing dared to make memorials so openly. The title of Princess Taiping is just a paper tiger to Song Jing.

Sure enough, Song Jing's face was as heavy as water, and he snorted coldly: "You speak princess, keep talking princess, do you still have the emperor in your eyes? Today, I will let you see the majesty of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Come on, please give me the imperial edict!"

The deacon came over with the imperial edict, and Song Jing pointed to the imperial edict: "Master Tang, seeing the imperial edict is like seeing the emperor, but still not seeing the courtesy?"

This is the righteousness and the truth. Although Tang Shi was not concerned about it, he had to bow to the ground: "I am going to see the emperor!"

Before Tang Shi had gotten up, Song Jing shouted, "Take it!" The soldier pressed Tang Shi to the ground like a wolf or a tiger.

After feeling something was wrong, Tang Shi asked: "Song Jing, what are you going to do?"

"I want to follow the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty!" Song Jing's face remained unchanged, and he clasped his fists at him: "Song is in the prime minister, assisting the emperor above and in charge of all officials below. Lord Tang violates the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty. Song cannot betray the law. Please forgive me. Ten steps, beat him!"

This man is really smart enough. He obviously wants to teach people a lesson, but he has given him a lot of reasons. Even Princess Taiping can only be defeated here.

The soldier raised his stick and was about to start a fight. Tang Jun shouted with a stern look on his face: "Song Jing, do you dare to hit me? I came here according to the princess's order. If you hit me, you are hitting the princess in the face!" At this time, he still grabbed Princess Taiping's paper tiger.

"I am not afraid of the emperor, and I am extremely guilty. I will add ten more punishments!" Song Jing did not react at all and gave a cold order.

Before Tang Shi could say anything, he beat the soldier back into his stomach with a stick. Tang Shi was still a little tough. He didn't even scream after hitting him a few sticks. He just gritted his teeth and held on his back, and the sweat on his forehead was seeping out like water.

After twenty sticks, Tang Shin's butt bloomed, his face turned blue, and his lips were bitten and bleeding. He stared at Song Jing fiercely, wishing he could swallow Song Jing alive.

"Give it!" Song Jing stretched out his hand, and the soldier handed the golden sore medicine to his hand. Song Jing clasped his fists at Tang Yan: "Master Tang, Song first, then private, and public has to punish you. Yu Private, you have been seriously injured, and I have the friendship to rescue you. Although this golden sore medicine is not the best, it can also make you suffer a little, so let Song get enough for you."

"Get out!" Tang Shi yelled at Song Jing: "Don't cry at the cat and make a fake move!"

The voice and expression were harsh and very terrifying, but Song Jing did not respond and calmly corrected his grammatical problem: "Mr. Tang, as an official of the court, you must speak and do things in an orderly manner. Never get angry. Besides, you are not a mouse, I am not a cat. We are all ministers of the Tang Dynasty. What you say is out of tune!"

Tang Shi was speechless and struggled not to let Song Jing apply medicine to him. Song Jing asked the soldiers to hold him down and apply the golden sore medicine, so he asked the soldiers to carry Tang Shi away. Tang Shi stared at Song Jing tightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Song Jing clapped his hands and returned to the house with a normal expression, as if nothing had happened.

Chen Wanrong kept praising in his heart, what is a capable minister? This is a capable minister! It not only crushed Princess Taiping's conspiracy and occupied the truth, but Princess Taiping could only say "beat well". The power is established, the favor is done, and you still can't catch the handle. It's such a good method!

If such a big thing happened, it is certain that Princess Taiping would not give up and would definitely cause trouble for him, but Song Jing seemed to be fine, as if all this had nothing to do with him. Chen Wanrong was convinced by this calmness and demeanor.

Song Jing clasped his fists at Chen Wanrong: "My friend, Song go to see everywhere. You have some tea first. If you are hungry, you should be a little worried. You should wrap your belly." He thought very thoughtfully, Chen Wanrong agreed and Song Jing strode away.

Looking at Song Jing's back, Zheng Qing said admirably: "Brother Chen, Lord Song is such a good method! Even the princess dares to fight. There is no other one in the Tang Dynasty except him!"

Princess Taiping was so powerful that there were few people in the Tang Dynasty who dared not take her seriously. Song Jing happened to be one of these few people. This was in the heart of Chen Wanrong. Song Jing was so righteous in history that he was ranked alongside the famous prime minister Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui of the Zhenguan period, and was well-deserved!

When Song Jing went there, there was no one. Chen Wanrong and Zheng Qing talked for a while, and chatted with the "family members" for a while. They were all family members of the students who came from near Chang'an.

It was so boring that Chen Wanrong thought that it would be better to go back than to wait here. Zheng Qing was impatient and had no objection. The two left the Imperial College and headed to Pingkangfang.

Before he walked far, he saw a familiar figure. It was none other than Chen Zairong. He actually ran to the front. Chen Wanrong didn't expect that, so he hurriedly chased after him and asked, "Zairong, how did he do the exam?" This was the most concerned question, so he naturally asked when he met.

"Brother, Sister Zheng, are you here? I thought you were back." Chen Zairong led the soldiers in first, and Chen Wanrong and Zheng Qing then followed the soldiers in, so he didn't know that Chen Wanrong was waiting for him in the Imperial College.

Zheng Qing smiled slightly and said, "Brother Zairong, Brother Chen and I are waiting for you in the Imperial College, and we have a conversation with Prime Minister Song for a while."

"Brother, have you seen Prime Minister Song?" Chen Zairong had long been well aware of Song Jing's name, and he admired him tightly, and his eyes widened when he heard this.

Chen Wanrong understood his mood and smiled and said, "Yes! Tell me how you did the exam?"

Chen Zairong looked around and saw a lot of pedestrians, saying, "Brother, go back and talk."

It’s a good exam and a bad exam. It’s just a word. It seems like Chen Wanrong has never entered the exam room, but he makes it mysterious. However, Chen Wanrong knew that he must have something to say to others, so he had to temporarily suppress his curiosity and said, “Okay, go back.”

The three of them walked away quickly and returned to Zheng's house. Zheng Qing tactfully surrendered. Although Chen Wanrong believed that she would not harm others, she would not be able to listen to her, but she did not want to listen out of etiquette, so she had to let her go.

The two brothers returned to the room, Chen Zairong closed the door and lowered his voice and said, "Brother, the prince really let go this time."

Chen Wanrong was very surprised and asked, "How do you say this?"

"Brother, do you know what the prince gave?" Chen Zairong asked and answered: "The prince did not take the poetry and books, nor did he take the literary talent. He only had one question: What are the current problems in the Tang Dynasty now? Brother, think about it, this question is big and small."

This is a criticism of current problems. If a person with ulterior motives can put a big hat on attacking the government, it will be enough to destroy people and die. It cannot be greater. If you want to turn small, you will say that it is a scholar's crazy words. It is not enough to laugh at it. Whether it is big or small depends on the situation. Chen Wanrong raised his eyebrows and asked, "How did you answer?"

Chen Zairong raised his head and said with a light look: "Brother, of course I'm telling the truth. Lord Song can submit a memorial to directly explain the current problems, but why can't I criticize the current problems? The princess is so powerful that most of the court officials join their party. The emperor is not authoritative. The world only knows that there is a princess, but not the prince. This is a sign that the country is not in power."

He was very sensible, but Chen Wanrong felt dizzy when he heard this. If Princess Taiping knew about this, would she let Chen Zairong go? His brother and Chen Laoshi and his wife had a hard life. It was so hard to say that she had such a young brother with a strong and full of scholarship.

Chen Wanrong was not afraid, but once a powerful person like Princess Taiping got involved, there would be trouble at the least, and the family would be destroyed and the nine clans would be destroyed. It would be better not to provoke him. No matter how he fights his superiors, I will do my chemical industry, how should I live my life as a commoner and how to live.

Chen Zairong slapped his chest and comforted him: "Brother, don't worry, I did this. If something happened, I will take care of it alone and will never implicate the family."

Whether you can even implicate your family is not up to you, but Princess Taiping has the final say. Chen Wanrong shook his head and said, "I see this matter so much. Since the prince has such a question, he must want to choose a few reliable talents. If you criticize the current situation, you will only appreciate you. Even if Prince Taiping is not good for you, the prince will not sit idly by. Although the prince is not as powerful as others now, he is not a good person. You can rest assured of this."

"Brother, I didn't think so much. After reading the title of the prince, I wrote it in a realistic way. I wrote it as if God helped me, and I finished it in one go." Chen Wanrong's analysis made sense, and Chen Zairong was a little at ease. After all, this matter is too important and will affect my family, and anyone has to worry about it.

Chen Wanrong warned him: "If the prince picks you, you should do your business well. As long as the prince is here, our family will be fine." After Chen Zairong made such a fuss, the Chen family and the prince were already tied together, and they couldn't even let it go.

Chen Zairong was taught and said, "Brother, don't worry, I am loyal to the prince!"

Chen Wanrong didn't care whether he was loyal or not. He just did his duty well and asked, "When will the Wuluo take the exam?"

Chen Zairong smiled and said, "I will definitely win the school competition tomorrow."

"Okay, you go and prepare well." Chen Wanrong sent Chen Zairong away, sat on the chair, rolled his eyes and began to think about the problem.

Although Chen Zairong's incident was understandable, he was just a little full of energy and ignored the consequences. There was no airtight wall in the world, and Princess Taiping would definitely know that by then, the hard days of the Chen family would come, and Chen Wanrong could not help but think clearly.

The best way is to let the prince ascend the throne as soon as possible and get rid of Princess Taiping. By then, the Chen family will not only not have a hard life, but also have a "happy life" waiting. However, this can only be thought about it. Princess Taiping is in the limelight, so how can it be said to be overwhelmed? Even according to historical development, Li Longji will have to ascend the throne in one year, and it took another half a year to get rid of Princess Taiping. In other words, once Princess Taiping mainly causes trouble for the Chen family, there is enough time to kill the Chen family a hundred times!

The most common family like the Chen family is not even as good as an ant in Princess Taiping's eyes. You can easily pinch your jade hand and destroy the Chen family. In more than a year, how can Chen Wanrong save his life? This is the top priority.
