Yan Zhenqing looked at Wang Chengwei in shock. He did not expect that this scholar from Longyou could grasp what the emperor needed most in his heart so keenly.
The affirmation of all people.
The emperor had been the crown prince for decades and was constantly suppressed in the emperor's court. The emperor even did not allow him to live in the East Palace and deprived him of the military power of the East Palace.
The suspicion between father and son has reached this point, and the emperor, a strong emperor, only needs a weak prince.
The prince grew up under the constant pressure of a strong father who lacked parental affection.
Li Heng was a forbearing emperor and an emperor who longed for recognition.
Now that Li Heng is the emperor, he no longer needs the affirmation of the emperor who has abdicated. What he needs is the sincere affirmation of all the people in the world.
Emperor Li Heng is stronger than the emperor!
And this article is what Li Heng needs most.
"Reform is always on the way." The article proposes that the court needs to constantly change to adapt to changes in the world.
Yan Zhenqing nodded secretly, this sentence was indeed correct.
When the court is resorting to militarism, it is necessary to use Wenzhi to calm down the warlike atmosphere.
When the court advocates luxury, it needs to use military merit and victory to reinstate the tradition of martial arts.
Although this is different from the sage's statement that "literacy and quality are restored again and again", it is more in line with today's actual situation.
The most important suggestion Wang Chengwei put forward was to change the Yuan Dynasty.
The Yuan Dynasty of Zhide and the Fifteenth Year of Tianbao were in the same year, which was why the emperor felt uncomfortable.
The year of Zhide is a transition. This is the time when the emperor and the current emperor take over.
Changing the Yuan Dynasty represents a kind of breaking up, indicating that the new emperor has completely broken away from the influence of the emperor and embarked on his own era.
This also echoes "recovering culture and quality", which puts forward Wang Chengwei's political proposition. Through this change of Yuan Dynasty, he announced to the world that the new era will continue to reform and adjust the court to achieve the realm of gentlemen.
Yan Zhenqing sighed. Wang Chengwei's article can be said to be a powerful and powerful argument, but it is all correct nonsense.
Who doesn't know that the court needs to constantly adjust its policies, but even the rulers in the court know how difficult it is to change policies.
It's just that Wang Chengwei changed the theory that the saint's cultural quality was close to metaphysics and prophecy into a political theory that is easier to practice.
Young people are to be feared. Wang Chengwei, a young man who has such knowledge and can see at a glance the strategies the emperor needs, is indeed worthy of being the first of the seventeen sons of Longyou!
After Wang Chengwei made a draft, he quickly revised it and then carefully copied it onto the paper.
When you arrive at around three o'clock in the afternoon, after Wang Chengwei checked for typos one last time, he called the invigilator and handed in his exam paper.
Wang Chengwei's examination paper was stamped and signed and sealed in a special wooden box. His examination paper will be the first to be evaluated by the examiner.
After the exam, Wang Chengwei packed up his pen, ink, paper and inkstone and left the exam room. At this time, Gu Kuang and Wei Yingwu also completed their answer sheets. The three of them bumped into each other as soon as they left the tribute courtyard.
"Brother Gu, Wei Lang." Wang Chengwei greeted.
Wei Yingwu was also a romantic figure. Since the last time he wrote poems at the Princess Mansion, Wei Yingwu had gotten to know Wang Chengwei.
On the one hand, Wei Yingwu lowered his profile, and on the other hand, Wang Chengwei took the initiative to make friends, and the two became good friends.
However, Gu Kuang is a bookworm and an otaku. He doesn't go out to socialize much on weekdays, so he is not very familiar with Wang Chengwei.
Although they all have full confidence in their exams, they still feel uneasy before the exam results come out.
Wei Yingwu raised his hand and greeted Wang Chengwei. After seeing the two of them, Wang Chengwei said: "The banquet has been prepared at the Longyou Guild Hall. Do you two want to go together?"
Wei Yingwu was a little moved, but Gu Kuang had a troubled expression on his face.
However, Wei Yingwu still took his friend and said, "The banquet at the Longyou Guild Hall is prepared for Brother Wang, right? We are not from Longyou. Wouldn't it be bad to go there?"
Wang Chengwei laughed and said: "Brother Wei Lang and Brother Gu are both talented people who were given gifts by King Jianning, so why are they not from Longyou like us?"
Thinking of the entire set of "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" at home, even Gu Kuang was embarrassed to refuse.
Gu Kuang and Wei Yingwu followed Wang Chengwei to the Longyou Guild Hall.
While walking away, Wang Chengwei said: "I heard that this imperial examination is special. The final rankings of Jinshi and Mingjing subjects will be decided by your Majesty personally. I'm afraid it will take a few days to announce the results."
Gu Kuang's master was Li Mi, and he also got to know many important officials in the court with Li Mi.
Therefore, although Gu Kuang is an otaku who loves to read, his news is the fastest and his news channels are the most accurate.
Gu Kuang said: "Not necessarily. The autumn period has been delayed for too long this time, and the court is in urgent need of talents. I heard that Your Majesty has issued an order to review the papers all night today, and let the examiners of the Gongyuan Academy correct the three questions first."
"Paper papers that have passed the Poetry and Classical Classic Examinations will first be ranked by the co-examiner and the chief examiner, and then sent to Fengxiang Mansion on an eight-hundred-mile expedited basis. His Majesty will determine the ranking before sending them back to Chang'an for ranking."
"The list should be released within seven days."
Wang Chengwei said in surprise: "So fast?"
Gu Kuang said: "It's not too fast anymore. In the past, the imperial examination only took three days to release the results. This year, His Majesty is not in Chang'an City, so the time has been extended."
The imperial examinations in the second year of Zhide finally came to an end. Amid the anticipation, major restaurants first ushered in the carnival.
This kind of carnival mentality is the same as when the college entrance examination results have not yet come out.
Except for those candidates who obviously answered the questions wrong, no matter how poorly the candidates took the test, they all had a lucky mentality. What if others did worse than me?
And before the results come out, everyone is a candidate taking the exam, and everyone is a scholar without official status.
When the results are released seven days later, some people will be candidates for Jinshi and become officials of the imperial court.
At that time, there was a big difference between clouds and mud. If you wait until those who were awarded the title of Jinshi in the same year to be awarded officials, it would be even more difficult to ask for an interview in the future.
[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, Yeguo Reading! It is so easy to use. I rely on this app to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here www. 】
Some scholars who did not do well in the examination but were quick-thinking have begun to make friends with those who are popular candidates for Jinshi.
If a family becomes prosperous, they might want to apply for a certificate in the same year!
In addition to these scholars who fell into the carnival, another group of people who became active were the matchmakers in Chang'an.
Although in the Tang Dynasty, there were no anecdotes about later generations catching a son-in-law, unmarried Jinshi were still very attractive.
Although Jinshi may not necessarily become high-ranking officials, Jinshi are also qualified to be officials.
Some businessmen are thinking of finding a son-in-law who is a Jinshi, and how about spending money to get the son-in-law to become an official?
In addition to these merchants, there are also many families in Chang'an City who are eyeing the new Jinshi. But if you wait until the list is published, it will be too late.
The price of stocks is lowest only when they are not publicly listed, so it is important to invest early.
The matchmakers inquire about the popular candidates for Jinshi and finalize the marriage before the exam results come out. Then even if they fail, they can take the exam again next year.
Anyway, these young talents will not treat their daughters badly.
For this time, the imperial examination was held after two years. It was the first time since the emperor ascended the throne and the first time since the restoration of Chang'an. The people also spontaneously celebrated.
Even the government has deliberately relaxed the curfew. As long as they are not wandering around Zhuque Street at midnight, the bad guys patrolling the streets will turn a blind eye. If they encounter drunk scholars, even the kind-hearted government officials will send them back to the hotel.
In order to make a good relationship.
But at the same time, the work of patrolling the streets has become much more intensive.
Shan Tao, the street patrolman, can be said to be Alexander. The eucalyptus of Zhuque Bridge is not broken, and Jingzhao Yin Cui Guangyuan does not give Shan Tao a good look.
Fortunately, there were no more deaths. The hot spot in Chang'an was taken away by the imperial examination again, and Shan Tao managed to survive.
However, he is still studying these two cases every day, trying to find more clues.
The identity of the female corpse under the Zhuque Bridge is still unclear. Chang'an has just experienced war. There are so many missing women and children that it is impossible to count them.
The only progress was that Shan Tao posted this message on the forum, which aroused the interest of players. One of the players, Zhuo Yang, who likes to study mysticism, contacted Shan Tao.
Occultism is the study of mysterious rumors. In fact, it does not mean that Zhuo Yang has any magic power. In the real world, he is just an ordinary newspaper editor.
Zhuo Yang searched for supernatural phenomena in the real world all his life but could not find it, so he entered the game to search for supernatural phenomena.
It's a pity that Legend of the Tang Dynasty has neither martial arts elements nor immortal cultivation elements. Zhuo Yang entered the game through the third test. He traveled to all the supernatural places recorded in the Tang Dynasty ghost novels, but found nothing.
The eucalyptus I accidentally saw on the forum made Zhuo Yang feel like he was good again.
He contacted Shan Tao, who was in charge of the case, and told his speculation.
"This is Yuan Tiangang's living alchemy technique!"
Yuan Tiangang was a famous Feng Shui master, alchemist, and Taoist priest in the early Tang Dynasty. Naturally, Shan Tao also knew his name.
Although Shan Tao felt that what Zhuo Yang said was a bit outrageous, there was no progress in the case, so he just listened to what Zhuo Yang had to say.
"Yuan Tiangang is said to have lived for three hundred years. The reason why he can live forever is the living alchemy technique."
Shan Tao asked: "What is the relationship between alchemy and killing?"
Zhuo Yang said: "Warlocks believe that the five elements circulate and life never ends, and the reason why people die is because the five elements are declining and cannot continue to circulate."
"So this evil sect of alchemy was born, which uses the five elements attributes of the five internal organs of the human body and integrates them into a special human body alchemy furnace, and then sends it into the real alchemy furnace, where it is forged with various precious medicinal materials and cinnabar.
Finally you can get the 'human elixir'."
"It is said that this 'human elixir' can replenish the energy of the five elements of the human body, which can make people immortal."
Shan Tao seems to have grasped the key, the corpse in Jing Gongfang without its liver, and the corpse under the Suzaku Bridge with its internal organs eviscerated!
Wait! It turns out that I have mastered the most critical thing!
