Chapter 5028 The North and South Champions

The three of them sat down, and Queen Su asked: "All the ministers are reviewing the papers in Wude Hall. It seems that this 'Etiquette Examination' went very smoothly?"

Fang Jun nodded and said: "Last time, the examination venues for the Return to Hometown Examination were distributed in all states in the world. They were inevitably interfered by forces from all over the world. It was difficult for the central government to take care of them all, so there were many mistakes, but overall it was still acceptable. This time, the 'Etiquette Examination' is placed in Chang'an attracted the attention of the whole country, and preparations were very complete in all aspects. They concentrated their efforts to ensure the smooth implementation of the exam, and the results were very good.”

Queen Su said: "That's good. Your Majesty has not been able to sleep well for many days because of the 'Etiquette Examination', and you are worried that someone will try to sabotage it. This time you can have a good rest."

Perhaps it is because of the lack of energy. Once something big happened in the court, His Majesty would be nervous and irritable. He would get angry frequently in the past few days. Many chamberlains and maids were punished. Even she, the Queen, did not dare to come near...

Fang Jun sat for a while, then said goodbye and left.

Queen Su held Princess Changle's hand and saw the sparkling and radiant face in her eyes. She felt envious in her heart and said in wonder: "It's strange to say that in the past few years, although Erlang was not bad in appearance, his expression and temperament were not good. Being too dull and having a lot of quirks between the eyebrows is also a sign of being too dull. The reason why Chu Gaoyang strongly resisted this marriage, but now it seems that Erlang still has the same face, but his temperament is fresh and heroic, and his movements are as gentle as jade. The whole person is simply a handsome man in troubled times, and he has changed too much. ”

Princess Changle smiled and said: "It's still a little darker."

The queen also laughed and said disapprovingly: "Man, why do you do so for nothing? He is darker and ages slowly. He looked like this when he was young, and he will still look like this after ten or twenty years. Besides, Erlang's eyebrows are magnificent , He is a handsome man, so you sisters can be satisfied.”

There is still a word that has not been said. The man's muscles and bones are strong and energetic, and the husband and wife are in harmony with each other, so that they will not be powerless on the bed.

That kind of thing is embarrassing to say, but it is an indispensable adjustment between husband and wife. Once it is missing, there will inevitably be estrangement and emotional imbalance.

And Fang Jun has a straight nose and full energy. He seems to be good at conquering and brave...

Princess Changle nodded slightly and said softly: "Whether it is talent or appearance, the relationship between men and women still depends on their eyes. A handsome appearance does not necessarily mean a husband. In Erlang's words, it means that the three views must be consistent."


The Queen wondered: "Three views?"

Princess Changle smiled and said: "The outlook on the universe, the outlook on life, and the values ​​​​are the three outlooks."

The queen was puzzled, so Princess Changle explained it. In fact, it was not difficult to understand, as the name suggests.

The Queen clicked her tongue and marveled: "Erlang is indeed a talented man. He can actually come up with a set of theories about treating women like this. Gee, this is really admirable."

As I spoke, I could not help but make comparisons in my mind. Do the so-called "three views" match between myself and His Majesty?

I only used it briefly and then gave up.

None of them fit together...

Fang Jun returned to the side hall of Wude Hall, only to find that His Majesty was sitting there at some unknown time. He hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to greet him. Li Chengqian nodded slightly and motioned for Fang Jun to take a seat. Then he smiled and said to Kong Yingda and Yan Shigu: "Every minister is sitting in Wude. I sat there for a while while reviewing the papers. The results in each subject were outstanding. All the candidates this year are talented, haha! ”

As a king, he couldn't be more happy than to be able to recruit the talents of the world for his own use.

Yan Shigu handed over his hand to announce the good news: "In the past, Emperor Taizong once said, 'All the heroes in the world have come to my rescue.' Today, the old minister also presented this statement to His Majesty. I only hope that Your Majesty will be diligent in government affairs, work hard to govern, and lead the Tang Dynasty to forge ahead without retreat." , make further progress!”

Liu Jie also said: "Throughout the ages, in all peaceful and prosperous times, there must be an abundance of talents and officials who govern the Qingming Dynasty. Such many talents are promoted by your Majesty to enter the court and fill all the government offices. They will surely make your Majesty's prosperous times shine through the ages and be the highlight of history." Go ahead, your achievements shine through!”

Li Chengqian was so happy that he couldn't help himself.

The atmosphere is very harmonious.

However, Li Chengqian was also worried and said to Fang Jun: "The Military Aircraft Department will issue an edict instructing the garrison troops in all states in the world to stand ready. I am afraid that after the emperor's list is announced to the world, some people may be unhappy or take the opportunity to cause trouble. The army must ensure that There must be peace everywhere and there must be no chaos.”

There is a huge difference in education standards between the north and the south, which leads to uneven levels of candidates. It is difficult to say that the ranking of candidates is fair based on their place of origin. It is inevitable that candidates in the south will be dissatisfied. There are also Jiangnan gentry who are unwilling to surrender. It is very possible that they are supporting the candidates to cause trouble. .

This imperial examination is the most fully prepared for him since he came to the throne. It must be ensured to be implemented smoothly, otherwise the imperial examination system will inevitably be bumpy and difficult to promote in the future.

Fang Jun nodded in agreement: "Tomorrow, the Military Aircraft Department will go to the Military and Civil Affairs Department to issue orders to the garrisons and Zhechong Mansion all over the country. The whole country will be prepared to prepare for it. If anyone takes the opportunity to cause chaos, he will be severely punished!"

Kong Yingda frowned and said worriedly: "We can't be too harsh, we should focus on being gentle and appeasing. After all, the evaluation of essays in the imperial examination is inevitably based on idealism. It is understandable that some people are dissatisfied. Wen Wu is the first." .”

Although there are many subjects in the imperial examination, except for the "Mingshuang" subject, which tests mathematics and the evaluation of scores is intuitive and clear, the performance evaluation of many other subjects is too subjective. "There is no first place in literature and no second place in military affairs.", an article Everyone has their own subjective judgment on the merits and demerits of it. There is no fixed way of evaluation, and some people will definitely be dissatisfied afterwards.

The weight of the center means that no matter how dissatisfied you are, you can only surrender.

Since the center has little power, it is natural to argue vigorously and make a fuss.

Although it will cause big trouble, we can't just suppress it with force...

Fang Jun said: "Master Kong and Master Yan still need to work hard."

The disciplines of subjective judgment are all Confucianism, and all Confucian scholars in the world are the disciples of these two. Once someone complains about the ranking of the South and the North, naturally they need to come forward to calm the storm.

Yan Shigu had a more direct temperament, stroking his beard and said calmly: "There is no need to say more about what is within the scope of my duties."

Confucianism has always been a "good baby". As long as the rulers still rely on Confucianism to govern the world, Confucianism will be obedient and cater to their superiors, thus using the power of the rulers to firmly control the world's academic voice.

Being unyielding is no longer the Confucian style...

Li Chengqian said happily: "The imperial examination was successful this time. In the future, it will be more effective with half the effort. You two will be models for later generations of Confucian scholars and will be respected by all generations."

Confucianism is indeed the best assistant in governing the world, but it is not impossible without Confucianism. The success or failure of today's examination means whether the imperial examination system can become a permanent rule in the future. Once it becomes a permanent rule, Confucianism and science will be the rule from generation to generation. The foundation of the imperial examination.

How can later generations of Confucian scholars not respect these two "founding fathers"?

Of course, in comparison, Fang Jun, who pioneered "science", established a new school and became a great master...

Kong Yingda nodded and said with a smile: "What we do is to train talents for the country, to help His Majesty govern the country and create a prosperous era, so that hundreds of millions of people can benefit from this, and create an enduring foundation! Of course, individuals benefit from this process. , but it is not the original intention of our veterans. I am a little happy and just treat it calmly."

Li Chengqian said: "Master Kong, there is no need to be humble. The glorious and prosperous times are recorded in the annals of history. The achievements of our monarchs and ministers cannot be erased. Since we have worked hard and diligently to achieve such achievements, we can naturally show it to the world openly and openly, so that future generations can The benefits are endless.”

If a person does not serve himself, he will be destroyed by heaven and earth.

No one is a saint. If he can take into account the interests of the country while pursuing his own interests, he is already a first-class loyal minister.

Si Fangjun often said that "the interests of the empire are above all else", which is certainly something Li Chengqian admires, but how many people can actually do it?

As long as his ministers, aristocratic families, and noble families do not take the initiative to steal and destroy national interests, he, the emperor, will be satisfied...

While they were chatting, Ma Zhou came in a hurry, holding a stack of literary policies in his hand. He first nodded and greeted everyone, and then came to Li Chengqian and bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, the list of scholars who have been selected for the North and South lists has been announced. Listed, please take a look at it.”

Everyone stopped talking and looked at the Wen Ce in Ma Zhou's hand.

Li Chengqian took over Wen Ce and said, "Servant, please sit down first and wait for me to take a look."

"Here."

Ma Zhou glanced around, then took a seat next to Fang Jun...

Fang Jun tilted his upper body toward Ma Zhou, leaned closer, and asked in a low voice: "Who is number one on the south and north lists?"

Ma Zhou also tilted his head towards him, glanced at Yan Shigu, and also whispered: "Xiao Shu is the number one in the south list, a descendant of the Xiao family in Lanling, the grandson of Song Guogong, his father Xiao Yue, the number one Yan in the north list Kang Cheng, a descendant of the Langya Yan family, and the nephew of Master Yan.”

Fang Jun thought about it carefully and realized that he didn't know either of them.

However, the thing about exams is that people who are usually talented and world-famous may not be able to adapt to the exam, but people who have a solid foundation and are diligent can often get good results. The Lanling Xiao family has a long-standing reputation. The children in the family are diligent in their studies, so it is not surprising that they will be the number one scholar.

Yan Shigu was born in Jingzhao ten thousand years ago. He was once the main branch of the Langya Yan family, but he moved to Jingzhao for many years. The Langya Yan family was the successor of Confucius' beloved disciple Yan Hui. He was rigorous in scholarship and had a good family background. He deserved to be the top scholar in high school. ……

Yan Shigu on the side twitched his ears and looked over at Ma Zhou. Although he couldn't hear clearly, he still had some vague guesses, so he asked with his eyes.

Ma Zhou nodded slightly.

Yan Shigu suddenly became a little excited, stroking his beard and his face turned slightly red.

Li Chengqian put aside his literary policy for the time being and congratulated Yan Shigu with a smile: "The Yan family of Langya is a disciple of Confucius. Sure enough, there are many talented people from his family. Yan Kangcheng is the nephew of Master Yan? This time he won the first place in the Central and South Ranking. It is gratifying. Congratulations! "The rest of the list of Jinshi was decided by all the examiners, but he, the emperor, appointed him as the top candidate on both the northern and southern lists. He had been chatting and laughing before, but there was no clue at all.
