The uncle and nephew surnamed Gao are in trouble. Just as Song Yang said to Gu Zhaojun at breakfast in the hotel before entering the city: a sure win.
From the moment Gao made up his mind to deal with Song Yang, the two uncles and nephews had already put their heads in the hands of the devil in Yama Palace and gave him a guillotine. Song Yang did almost nothing, even if Ren Xiaoping was there,
He really didn't need to do anything more than question Qin Zhui on stage at the end to encourage public sentiment.
Of course, the purpose of doing this is to pin Gao alive, but more importantly, everyone in Qingyang City now knows how glorious the Hongbo family general under the command of Zhenxi King was, and how brave his border soldiers were.
This time Ren Xiaoyao helped a lot again, and Song Yang planned to return the favor... For the King of Zhenxi and the Hongbo Mansion, there is no better gift than 'prestige' and 'people's hearts'. Moreover, the Western Front is difficult,
The source of troops is always a problem. It happened that Song Yang heard Qin Zhui mention that the King of Zhenxi would recruit troops in Qingyang Prefecture soon... It is conceivable that there should be more young men enlisting in the army this time than in the past.
As for his excuse for helping Liu Taishou, the Taishou did not have much to do with this matter. He was simply dragged into the water by the man named Gao. Song Yang would not feel more happy if he killed another Song Yang. He could be merciful.
Forgive me; in addition, even if Song Yang has no intention of politics, he also understands that if he can fulfill the post of prefect, he will be involved in countless relationships in all aspects. It is certainly not difficult for the Prince of Pingxi to win over him, but they will have to spend some time afterwards.
To settle the disputes caused by this.
Ren Xiaoqiao helped Song Yang, but Song Yang didn't want her to get into trouble again.
However, what Song Yang didn't expect was that when the 'gift' was delivered, Her Royal Highness the Princess not only caught it steadily, but also 'went up the stairs', and the accompanying eunuch announced the 'truth' in an orderly manner, allowing the Zhenxi Palace to punish evil officials even more.
The reputation of "doing justice".
Ren Xiaoqiao also knows how to 'go with the flow'... just with her impetuous and carefree temperament?
It's not difficult to guess what happened. After thinking about it for a while, Song Yang figured it out. There are experts around Her Royal Highness the Princess.
After handling the case, dragging away the body, and splashing water to wash away the blood, the selection of 'Qishi' still had to be continued. Following the princess's order, the selection ceremony continued, and the singing officer spoke again: "Song Yang, Qingyang Prefecture
People from Yanziping, 18 years old, show off their skills... to tell the truth."
Ren Xiaoqiao felt that he knew Song Yang thoroughly. He thought that his performance was mostly acupuncture and pharmacological skills, but he didn't expect that it turned out to be the 'truth'. When he was surprised, he wondered and said: "What truth? Is this considered a skill? You
Is it true to call me Song Yang?"
On the stage, Song Yang followed the rules, bowed and saluted first, and then replied politely: "Forget it! But the 'truth' I want to say is probably something that no one has heard."
Ren Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "Let's talk about it first."
"Most people can't lick their own elbows." Song Yang has tried this before and is full of confidence.
There were countless people in the audience, and eight out of ten tried it on the spot. As expected, no one could lick their own elbows. Many officials on the stage also wanted to try, but in such a large public place and with the dignity of the official family, how could they shrug their shoulders and stick out their tongues?
She forcibly endured it. Her Royal Highness the Princess was sitting in the silk curtain. She could see outside but she could not be seen outside, so without any scruples, she stretched her neck with her left elbow and stuck out her tongue with her right hand... After a moment, she changed hands... Finally, she slumped.
give up.
Ren Xiaoyu smiled: "Is there anything else? Let me say one more thing."
"Sit on a chair with your back pressed against the back of the chair. If you don't stretch your head forward and lean your shoulders, you will never be able to stand up with the strength of your waist and legs alone." This time, the people standing in the audience watching the excitement couldn't try it, but they sat down on the stage.
All the officials had tried it calmly, and Ren Xiaoping was no exception, unable to stand up.
Now Ren Xiaoqiao's interest increased greatly and he smiled and said: "Is there anything else? Let's continue."
"A pig can't raise its head to look at the sky. It can't raise its neck."
As soon as he finished speaking, the prefect who had just tried his best to stand up looked up at the sky... Not only him, but there were many people like him in the audience. It was purely due to inertia. Soon everyone reacted and let out a roar.
They all laughed, and no one took this little joke seriously. Most of them thought about raising their own pigs and trying to look up at the sky when they went back.
Everyone withdrew their gaze and looked at Song Yang on the stage again. Just as Song Yang was about to continue speaking, his face suddenly changed, as if he was aware of the huge crisis, he pointed his hand to the sky and shouted: "Be careful!"
Everyone looked up in shock, but Song Yang told the fourth truth to the princess silk curtain: "When you suddenly look up, everyone will open their mouths." Ren Xiaoqian was looking up at the sky, so he could not see the countless people in the audience.
Her mouth was open, but she believed Song Yang's words because her own mouth was still open.
Ren Xiaoqiao laughed loudly and kept urging: "Come again, come again."
"There is still plenty, and the honey will never run out; the elephant cannot fly in the air or jump up; the ox will go up the stairs, but not down the stairs; the crocodile will never stick out its tongue; the duck will never quack.
Causing echoes; if you cut off the head of a cockroach, it can live for a few more days, and finally starve to death; when a baby is born, it has nearly 300 bones, but when it grows up, it only has 206 bones..."
At this point, Song Yang's voice slowed down and he paused for a moment before continuing: "Whenever an imperial envoy comes, it is as if the Holy Master is in person, and lying is deceiving the emperor. What I said can be verified after you return, and there is absolutely no lie."
Others may have doubts, but Ren Xiaozaixin was also very curious: "How do you know so many messy things?"
Song Yang replied: "Because of his family education, the villain lived in seclusion with his elders in a remote village since he was a child, practicing in secret in order to understand the secrets of heaven and save himself and others. The elders in the family pointed out that the secrets of heaven and earth are hidden in heaven and earth. If you want to understand, you must first read
… little by little, observe carefully.”
Practice? Ren Xiaozai was so angry at Song Yang that he wanted to laugh, but he still held back: "Although the things you just said are interesting, they are not enough to qualify you to follow me to the capital."
"Those things are all little things I found while observing nature on the road of spiritual practice. I only told them to make everyone laugh." Song Yang smiled: "But the more I see it, the more I see it carefully, I gradually gain insights.
As the elders in the family said, the secrets of heaven and earth are hidden in the sky and the earth... Everything from the universe and the stars to the prosperity of a country and its people, to self-cultivation and introspection can be understood from nature."
After learning about the 'Selection of Talents' from Gu Zhaojun not long ago, Song Yang bit his pen and thought hard, recalling the 'cold knowledge' that was said as a joke in his previous life. Song Yang was not naive enough to want to rely on 'can't lick'
To be selected as a "Kizi" based on little knowledge such as "elbow", these are just introductions.
"Qishi" is used to show the prestige of Nanli State. What is national prestige? Song Yang used his own thinking to understand it, and it can be roughly divided into "economic", "military", "cultural" and "political" aspects.
Among them, there is no need to think about the economy. Nanli’s annual income is as good as that of the Yan Kingdom. Emperor Honglong even threw his chopsticks when he got angry. This kind of real gold and silver competition cannot be represented by one or two people;
In terms of 'culture', Song Yang had considered that 'copying poems' was indeed a shortcut, but he soon gave up this idea. The reason is very simple. Poetry competitions focus on foundation and talent, and you must have real ability to get the title.
, to suit the occasion.
He has had a lifetime of experience as a human being, and he still remembers some famous poems and good words. These may be able to become his "inheritance", but what about talent? He doesn't have it. He can recite Li Bai, Du Fu, and Bai Juyi, but the easiest thing is for the imperial envoy to let him
Taking this 'selection of talents' as the theme and composing a poem on the spot, Song Yang could only recite one sentence: There were so many people, everyone laughed... If he wanted to get ahead with poetry, someone would definitely come and ask him to 'come up with a topic'
"A poem can be made in seven steps", Song Yang did not dare to hope that someone could take him to a waterfall and allow him to recite "It is suspected that the Milky Way falls from the sky".
As for 'military', Xiao Qi Xiangma and Liu Er Tongniao are both in this category, and Song Yang cannot find his own strengths in this area.
So only 'politics' is left. And the word 'politics' has a vague meaning, as long as it is related to people's livelihood. Due to the high asymmetry of the amount of information in the past life and this life, under the relatively mature social model after the 'thousand years'
Personal life experience, the knowledge of nature and society that any ordinary modern person has learned, plus a little eloquence... This is the real shortcut to qualify for the first-level competition.
The only thing to worry about is that Song Yang wants to be a 'thinker with unique insights' this time, but he is eighteen years old, a bit too young, and his age and status do not match, so he has to use those 'cold knowledge'
Quoting, quoting my own experience of "practicing in the hidden world", and quoting the reason why my subsequent remarks all come from "comprehending nature".
To put it bluntly, let’s pack it.
Song Yang stood with his hands behind his hands, looking calm. However, Ren Xiaoqian thought that he was pretty good-looking with his pretentious look. After looking at him quietly for a while, he asked: "You have all the stars in the universe, making the country and people rich, self-cultivation and self-reflection."
Insights?”
As good-looking as it is, Ren Xiaoqian still feels that Song Yang's boasting is a bit too exaggerated this time.
Song Yang smiled and said: "I have an idea occasionally, and I would like to ask Her Royal Highness the Princess and all the gentlemen to verify it."
As he spoke, one of the adults on the stage looked unhappy and snorted coldly. Qingyang Sima.
In the case of Gao Changshi just now, many Qingyang officials below the prefect could see that Song Yang had a connection with Hongbo Mansion. Now that Song Yang is on stage, no one can say 'no', plus 'cold knowledge'
It’s fun and everyone has a smile on their faces.
This Qingyang Sima was not very knowledgeable, but he was dull and his temper was somewhat similar to Imperial Physician You. Originally, Sima's position and status were similar to those of Chang Shi, but because of this natural temperament, he became more and more popular.
It became more and more difficult for him to survive, and he was firmly suppressed by Gao Changshi. Previously, Lord Sima was quite happy to see Shi Fufa, and he also watched Song Yang's performance with a smile, but later Song Yang brought up the topic.
Oh my God, Master Sima has a nerdy temper again. From the bottom of his heart, he felt that the boy was arrogant, so he snorted coldly, which was considered polite. If he hadn't been worried about the princess, he would have criticized him a long time ago.
Ren Xiaozai ignored Qingyang Sima and said to Song Yang: "Then tell me, how can we make the country rich and its people strong?"
