Chapter 1118 1118: Annexation of Gao Kingdom (5) [Ask for double monthly votes]
Shen Tang felt like his brain was in knots.
“Young Mei’s way of being a scribe is to [capture people’s favor], so your consummation ceremony will not be—” My mind quickly flashed to Yuan Liang, who had the same spirit as Lio Jia, ah no, the same spirit. As the master of these two people, she has to tell her conscience that they are both equally guilty! It can be deduced from this that Liu Jia's consummation ceremony is most likely related to benefiting oneself at the expense of others, so Shen Tang boldly hypothesized and carefully verified, "Could it be that the consummation ceremony of a lurking third party steals the results at the moment of the other party's consummation?"
This is called "taking advantage of others"!
If she guesses correctly, Lio Jia’s way of being a scribe will really take “loss” to a new level! The evil is even greater than when Yuan Liang destroyed the consummation ceremony of the first ascension. Both parties must fight to the death!
Liao Jia was surprised at first, and then showed a subtle and evil smile.
“He who knows me is my Lord!”
Some details are not correct, but it is generally correct.
Alas, in fact, the way to achieve perfection in the way of the scribes is somewhat related to one's own ability. Liao Jia had some guesses before he knew the content of the ceremony. Taking away what others like must be related to the seven emotions and six desires.
What are the seven emotions?
Joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, desire.
What are the six desires?
Life, death, ears, eyes, mouth, nose.
No matter which one it is, the difficulty is definitely not small, and Liao Jia did not dare to spread the speculation for fear of causing unnecessary panic among his colleagues. Although he did not intend to deceive his colleagues, he could not resist the disbelief of his colleagues. The most immoral officials in the court of King Kang were Chu Yao who prayed for good deeds! These people will plot against their colleagues for their own benefit, especially Qi Yuanliang!
Liao Jia can only put the matter on hold for the time being.
Until he figured out the correct conditions for a successful ceremony, he was really worried - what proportion of the population did literary scholars account for? How many of these people are scribes? How many of those who are literate are qualified to have a glimpse of the door to perfection?
How many of these people are 100% sure of achieving Consummation?
Shen Tang helplessly raised his head and said, "There's no need to boast."
To be honest, as the lord, she also felt guilty.
A simple and crude metaphor——
The way to become a perfect scholar is to take the college entrance examination, and the score must reach the Qingbei admission limit. The candidates in Liaojia are a bit special and are forced to become a gangster in the college entrance examination. If he wanted to go to Qingbei, he could only change another candidate's test paper to his own name without anyone noticing, or hack into the college entrance examination system and change the score of another candidate who met the standard to his own. No matter which one it is, he can reap the benefits and successfully enter Qingbei_(:з」∠)_
As for the unlucky candidate?
Repeat for one year and then take the exam.
What are the exam questions for the second year? Is it difficult?
Let it all happen!
Listening to this metaphor really makes your blood pressure soar.
Shen Tang tried hard to get this metaphor out of her mind, otherwise she would not be able to help Liao Jia. Facing Liao Jia's expectant eyes, she smiled reluctantly: "Well, you're a little late."
Liao Jia was slightly regretful.
"Mei Jinghe has completed the ceremony?"
Shen Tang shook his head.
Lia Jia said: "That means it failed? It's a pity, but it's normal. Successful ceremonies rarely succeed in one go."
Shen Tang nodded and shook his head.
She clasped her cheeks with her fingers in embarrassment, her erratic eyes filled with guilt: "Shaomei, well, it's a long story. I thought about surprising Mei, and then just follow Wu Xian I got three Zen edicts and forced her to start the ceremony in advance. If you had come half a month earlier, you would still be able to get this ride."
Who knew there was still demand here in Liao Jia.
Had she known this, she would have changed her plan.
Secretly assisting Mei Jinghe to complete the ceremony 100%, and then letting Liao Jia reap the fruits of victory when the other party thought it was successful. I believe that the blow after the great joy will be even more frustrating.
What a pity, what a pity, Liao Jia is late.
Liao Jia: "..."
What made Lia Jia even more shocked was that the banquet in the evening was for Ning Yan to perfect her way as a scholar. She was instantly listless and the flowers on her temples were wilting. . He was so shocked that he had a dejected look on his face. He poured drinks into his mouth in gulps, a standard way of drinking to drown his sorrows.
People who don’t know about it think that Liao Jia is dissatisfied with Ning Yan.
In order to put an end to this misunderstanding, Shen Tang ended up as the lord to smooth things over. She did not reveal how Liao Jia's way of being a scribe could be perfected, only that his consummation ceremony was related to Mei Jinghe. Shaomei knew that Mei Jinghe's ceremony had been ruined and that she had missed a precious opportunity, so she felt depressed instead of having any objections to Tunan.
Everyone showed sympathy for Liao Jia.
Liao Jia's arrival was unlucky, what a pity.
Ning Yan worriedly asked: "Is it necessary for Mei Jinghe to do it?"
In some special circumstances, the consummation rituals of two scribes will indeed overlap, either to help each other and achieve consummation together, or Tit for tat, choose one of the two to advance. Mei Meng is an enemy of Kang State, and the two sides have conflicting positions. If the latter situation is okay, if it is the former, won't Lio Jia's consummation ceremony not be shackles by others?
If Mei Meng doesn’t cooperate, will she never be able to achieve perfection?
Ning Yan was worried about this, and Luan Xin was also worried when he heard this. He subconsciously leaned forward slightly and kept looking towards Shen Tang from the corner of his eye.
I am afraid that Shen Tang or Liao Jia will give bad news.
Shen Tang hesitated for a moment: "Well, it doesn't have to be Mei Meng, but if you can choose, it's better to choose her."
It's good for Liao Jia and for everyone.
You can't let Liao Jia deceive your colleagues, right?
The perfect way of being a scribe requires the right time, place and people. Once you fail, the assessment content will be changed and the difficulty will be raised to a higher level. Even my parents would not give up the precious perfect spot and take the exam again. Shen Tang also didn't want Liao Jia to attack his own people. If he wanted to cause harm, he would harm the enemy.
Ning Yan heard a strange meaning and was as sharp as she was. She vaguely guessed the truth and said carefully: "It's just that Mei Jinghe should have fled back to Qi State at this time. I don’t know the content of her second ceremony, let alone when she will start the second consummation ceremony... This matter is really difficult to handle.”
Shen Tang also sighed.
The curse started in my heart.
You said that Liao Jia is already "taking people's favor", so why does it have to be stipulated that he can only take away the fresh and warm way of perfect scribes? Isn’t it okay to seize other methods of perfect scribes that have already been revealed?
Shen Tang can still catch one for him.
For example, Wei Lou, the old man.
Mainly make the best use of one thing.
The ministers exchanged cups and some were drunk, and Ning Yan, as the protagonist, was toasted in turn - even though her colleagues were saying congratulations, they were also a little sour in their hearts. The perfection of the scribe's way is a height that many people cannot reach in their lifetime, and they cry with envy.
Ning Yan has a good drinking capacity and will not refuse anyone who comes.
She is not completely passive. When others drink her, she will encourage them to dance. Even if they cannot dance, they will sing a song and recite two poems. The civil servants were more reserved, but the military commanders were very generous.
Qian Yong placed the wine cup on the table.
I flicked my clothes, stuffed them into my waist, stretched out my hands, shook my head and twisted my waist, and then finished. Other colleagues drew their swords, played them, composed music, and sang with their hands on the table. All the tunes were improvised.
Everyone applauded. Wei Shou glanced at his mouth, threw away his chopsticks, turned over and left the court, and then made a deft leap like a tiger. The cheers from the sidelines were even higher. Wei Shou invited a battle: "Qian Shuhe, let's compete."
Hey guys, this is the preparation for the dance.
Everyone at the banquet consciously divided into two camps.
You play the gongs and I play the drums, and the atmosphere is lively.
Gongxi Qiu saw two big men dancing and sweating profusely. They danced like tigers and tigers with every step, sometimes like dragons and tigers, sometimes like luan and phoenix flying. The figures reflected in the candlelight were The ground is like a ferocious beast trying to attack the opponent, containing explosive power.
After looking at it for a while, I felt itchy.
He shouted: "I'm coming too!"
The dance of the generals in the military camp was not light and slender at all. The dance steps were wide and open, and the rhythm was enthusiastic and unrestrained. The main purpose was to show momentum and power. Jimo Qiu wanted to stop him, but Gong Xiqiu had disappeared. Everyone was having a great time, and Shen Tang didn't stop.
The central area was noisy. She quietly came to Liao Jia's side and said comfortingly: "Don't be discouraged, young beauty. Our family is now big and our business is big. With the power of a country, we still can't find a qualified scapegoat?" If you really don’t meet the conditions, we’ll look at the situation after the battle with Gao Guo and go to Mei Jinghe’s house to intercept Hu.”
By the way, let’s give Qi Guo some color.
Shen Tang calculated the time in his mind.
At this moment, Cui Hui and Miao Ne should be on their way to Qi State. Under the candlelight, her eyes flashed with creepy calculations: "Well, Mei Jinghe is indeed suitable."
Liao Jia nodded: "Thank you, Lord."
He also wanted to try his luck.
Mei Jinghe missed it, and Lio Jia planned to take a long vacation to look for suitable candidates in other areas. Compared to other colleagues, Liao Jia's scribe's ways were too useless. For so many years, he could only pray for good in disgust and harm the unlucky Lord, and was almost useless on the frontal battlefield. Liao Jia is not that obsessed with military achievements, but he is not first in literature and second in military affairs. As a literary scholar, he does not want to lose to anyone, let alone be pulled down by newcomers who will join the officialdom in the future.
He is not alone in this distress.
The same goes for Chu Yao.
It’s not easy to get a clue, no matter how difficult it is, you have to give it a try.
Shen Tang patted him on the shoulder: "Would you like to play too?"
As he said that, he looked at the noisy crowd.
All generals are extroverted.
Even if their limbs are as stiff as if they were in plaster, having the same hands and feet doesn’t stop them from dancing wildly, making them stand out. Gong Xiqiu was like a fish in water on this occasion, like a big snake that could twist twists and turns. If Jimo Qiu played the flute to music for him again, the smell would come up immediately. Most of the civil servants were reserved, but there was also one who was accidentally dragged into playing.
Shen Tang was so noisy that his head hurt, but he didn't stop him.
Occasionally, you need to release your nature and relieve stress.
The demons in Kang State were dancing wildly, and the Gao State envoy was restless. The food was tasteless, like chewing wax. The excitement at the banquet had nothing to do with them, they only felt that the noise was annoying. They asked to see Shen Tang again, but Shen Tang looked at them with a half-smile. That look seemed to reveal the biggest secret in their hearts.
"I dare to ask, what are Mr. Shen's considerations?"
"There is nothing to consider." Shen Tang's response was not condescending at all, and he looked at the envoy's sudden change of face playfully, "I thought your family could Passed down for many generations , I have long understood the essence of human relations, but I didn’t expect that - tsk, it is 70% destiny and 30% depend on ability. Now, you should not be the one asking me to give you a way out. Why are you so confused that you still want to follow me? Bargaining? Go to the negotiating table You want bargaining chips! A bargaining chip that cannot be taken away is called a bargaining chip, and a bargaining chip that can be taken away is called fat meat! "
"The country of Gao is already a turtle in a jar, let alone you"
< br>"The soldiers and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first. "The Gaoguo envoy's back was wet with sweat, but he still forced his mouth to say, "Jun Shen's time to found the country is still short. If this battle is delayed for one more day, food and grass will be lost..."
Shen Tang waved his hand: " That’s you.”
She smiled and sat up straight: "Kang country is not short of food and grass."
Then she said desperate words: "Don't say delaying it for another three to five months, or another three to five years, the impact will not be big, but If you want to bargain with me and ask for my land and my people, the impact will be very bad. Is it the king’s land in the world? You want to occupy my things, and you think it’s for my own good?”
< br>Haha, are you okay with your brain?
Shen Tang threw the empty wine cup in his hand not far in front of the messenger. The wine cup shattered with a sound, and the fragments flew. Her eyes were filled with darkness that was darker than the night, and she could see people as if they were falling into an ice cellar with just one glance: "On the day when my cavalry conquers the high country, what belongs to me will only belong to me. If you want to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, you should be welcome. , don’t think about anything else. Messenger, are you still suspicious?”
The messenger was stiff and did not dare to move.
An aura like a mountain was pressing on his shoulders.
He was sure that if he said something that did not suit Shen Tang's mind, the momentum would be completely suppressed and his internal organs would be strangled into pulp. Under the ever-present shadow of death, the envoy from the High Kingdom tried his best to squeeze out the ugliest smile in his life.
“I understand, no doubt!”
Shen Tang was satisfied: “Well, that’s good.”
Look, wouldn’t it be more convenient to communicate like this?
The Gaoguo mission left on the second day, bringing back the worst news. Shen Tang didn't care at all how gloomy those aristocratic families were. She just went step by step, dispatched soldiers and generals, and three lines of troops approached the border of Gao Kingdom. This fight will not stop until she says it will stop!
In response, Zhang Wenwu was inspired.
During the truce between the two armies, they couldn't hold it any longer.
You have obviously won the battle, but you have to rest where you are, and watch the enemy's remnants flee back to rest. The feeling is really worse than killing yourself. They can tolerate their colleagues taking more military honors than themselves, but they cannot tolerate their military merits being extended and running back to the base camp.
When it comes to starting a war, each one is more positive than the other. How could the harmony of the happy dance that night be there if the fight turned red and the neck was thick?
You step on my foot and I'll squirt in your face.
There is only one core -
My colleagues are all noobs, I/I are the best at fighting!
Shen Tang: "..."
In Kang State, warlikeness is also a virtue.
The movement of the army was too big to be concealed from Wu Xian.
He suddenly sent someone over to ask to see Shen Tang.
Shen Tang took the time to meet Wu Xian. It had been just over a month since the last meeting. Wu Xian seemed to be more than ten years older. His back was not as straight as that of a young man, and his whole body had a sense of decadence. His image It's also very sloppy. Shen Tang sighed and said: "It's bitter cold in the army, but it's not as graceful and wealthy as Brother Zhaode's palace. If you find it uncomfortable to live in, I will ask my subordinates to change Brother Zhaode's residence."
Wu Xian did not follow. Shen Tang made small talk.
Before Shen Tang came, he had been mentally prepared for a long time, and some of the words he said were not difficult as expected: "It's not for this, I just want to ask for something. I have my concubine Mi and her two sons and two daughters... I hope Mr. Shen will remember the friendship and spare their lives.”
