Chapter 11 Three, Six, Nine and Others
After the founding of the Xia Dynasty, the Central Plains region was full of waste and was in need of development. In order to select talents, the imperial examination system was created.
Initially it was once a year, and later it was changed to three years.
When the Immortal Way was revived and the struggle for education began, a large number of children from aristocratic families began to choose to practice immortality. Only a few people participated in the imperial examination, so it was changed back to once a year.
However, despite this, the talents in the Daxia court were still declining day by day.
So when Kuang Cheng said the word "imperial examination", Ji You was obviously stunned, and then he remembered that there was still an imperial examination in this world.
Kuang Cheng rolled up his wide sleeves, put them on his knees and explained: "The laws of Daxia stipulate that if you are lucky enough to reach the fourth rank, one of your direct relatives or descendants in the family will be able to cultivate immortality. His father said, whether the Kuang family can continue to exist, The key lies in me.”
Qingyun Immortal Power is higher than the Great Xia Imperial Power. Under today's worship system, common people are racking their brains to change their class and get rid of their status as human slaves.
This commoner boy of the Kuang family has been reading poetry and books since he was a child, so he has such high hopes.
If you become an official and become an immortal, you will have many children. If your direct relatives are able to become immortals, your family will gradually prosper.
This is the only way a family like the Kuang family, which has some property and fertile land but always lives at the lowest level, can find to survive.
Ji You thought for a moment and felt a little confused: "If only direct relatives of fourth-rank officials can cultivate immortality, then Fang Zhongzheng is only a seventh-rank county magistrate. Why can Fang Ruoyao enter Tianshuyuan?"
"Her admission into Tian Academy has nothing to do with Mr. Fang, but because of her elder brother Fang Ruoming. Fang's eldest son left home to join the army at the age of fourteen. For the past seven years, he has been very important in the Zhenbei Army, so he has a quota. On Fang Ruoyao’s body.”
Ji You suddenly realized after hearing this.
Although Daxia has been in control of the Central Plains for many years, there are still many small countries and tribes surrounding it. Among them, the bellicose Wu Barbarian tribe has invaded for years, causing constant wars in the north, and the demon tribe also has an ambiguous attitude, which makes the emperor of the current dynasty extremely fearful.
Therefore, the status of Zhenbei Army officers has been rising year after year. Although they are not as good as the immortals on the mountain, they are certainly higher than those of civilians.
"It seems that the Fang family has the same ideas as your Kuang family. Whether they want to be an official or join the army, in the end they all want someone in the family to become an immortal cultivator."
Kuang Cheng pursed his lips when he heard this: "Everyone knows that only by becoming an immortal cultivator can you have a chance to get rid of your lowly status."
Ji You couldn't help but sneer: "Da Xia strictly forbids civilians from cultivating immortals, enslaves them to engage in production, and sacrifices most of their income to immortals. As the number of immortal cultivators increases, the offerings become more and more heavy. Are you coming back?"< br>
"Daxia has existed for thousands of years, isn't this how it came about?"
"Lao Kuang, if one day you can dominate the government and the opposition, do you dare to replace the sun and moon with a new sky?"
Kuang Cheng was stunned for a moment, then realized what he meant, and couldn't help but widen his eyes: "How can you be so Hu Qin, this will kill people!"
"What's wrong with death? Since ancient times, no one has ever died, leaving a loyal heart to illuminate history."
Immortals are respected in the world of Qingyun. Poetry is a minor path that no one cares about and is not developed, but the concise and concise words can still touch the bottom of the heart. However, in thousands of years, no one has dared to speak such arrogant words, which can make people's hearts tremble.
Kuang Cheng's eyes couldn't help but change again and again, and after a long time he said: "Is this your ambition?"
"Me?"
Ji You was stunned for a moment, then smiled naively: "No, I only dare to advise others to follow history. I can't do it myself, I'm afraid of death."
People usually become extremely speechless when they are extremely speechless, so the corners of Kuang Cheng's mouth trembled twice.
But a moment later, when he saw Ji You's clothes covered in blood, he couldn't help but be slightly startled.
Since ancient times, no one has ever died, leaving a loyal heart to illuminate history...
Just as Kuang Cheng was pondering the true meaning, he suddenly felt a feeble tap on his shoulder.
"Hey, do you have red dates at home? Bring some to supplement me..."
"Well, I'll get it right away. Just wait."
"Wait a minute!"
Ji You stopped the scholar who had already stood up. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Are you having a banquet at home? A chicken drumstick would be even better..."
Kuang Cheng was stunned for a moment: "Okay."
Seeing him leaving, Ji You couldn't help but sigh.
To be honest, in all his life, he never thought that one day he would eat red dates to replenish his blood.
But this amount of blood is actually just an aunt, it just looks scary.
Master Ji forced himself to sit up, closed his eyes and began to meditate. After a long time, he opened his eyes with an expression of despair.
The spiritual spring was really broken, so badly that it was like a blooming lotus flower... But the good news is that he can still breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and will not fall.
Let's make do with it, this may be the price of being too reckless, but Tianshuyuan is a holy sect, and when he goes to Shengjing, he may be able to find some ways to repair it.
In the blink of an eye, on the fifth day of August, the poplars have fallen early and the cold grass has withered.
Ji You continued to wash his body with spiritual energy, and his energy and blood gradually recovered. Except for the broken spiritual spring, he was no different from ordinary people.
At this time, Tianshuyuan also set a date for departure to Beijing, which was at Mao hour the next day.
The news was also accompanied by an invitation. The county magistrate Fang Zhongzheng was hosting a farewell banquet for him and Fang Ruoyao and invited him to be a guest.
Although Fang Zhongzheng is not a good person, he is a very smart person and knows how to assess the situation. From Cao Xianren's attitude, he has already vaguely sensed that Ji You and his daughter are not the only ones who rely on quota to enter the Tian Academy. thing.
After all, Ji You has joined Tianshu Academy. Although he doesn't like the Fang family, he still has to make a gesture in the scene, so he comes here as invited.
However, after three rounds of drinking, Fang Zhongzheng was almost pulled into becoming his godbrother. This incident made Fang Ruoyao's face livid throughout the banquet.
Fortunately, Ji You didn't sit still for a long time at the banquet. He ate both legs of the chicken, said some compliments to Cao Jinsong and Pei Ruyi, and then left in a hurry.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Ji You is always in a hurry to do things this time. What are you going to do now?"
"I should be going to the barnyard. The stage is being set up over there. Everyone has arrived. Now we are missing Master Ji."
The boy who was waiting next to him came with a drink. After hearing the inquiry, he opened his mouth to report.
Pei Ruyi was slightly startled: "Setting up a stage? Is it for singing?"
Fang Ruoyao smiled and said while pouring the wine: "I heard someone said that Ji You was chatting with people on the street this morning and said that now that he has become an immortal of Tianshuyuan, if the big family in the city can recognize him as a godmother to protect him, it will definitely... ...Um, if you want to make a fortune, I’m probably going to be busy with this now.”
After Pei Ruyi heard this, his eyebrows suddenly wrinkled and his expression was unhappy.
This person surnamed Ji, even though he has not really become a disciple of Tianshuyuan, he started to use this name to collect offerings, which is a bit arrogant.
You must know that the owner of Fengxian Villa is a master of the upper five realms. He finally left Xuanyuan Immortal Mansion and chose a place to establish a villa on his own, so he has this qualification.
But before Pei Ruyi could say anything, the boy serving the wine immediately waved his hand: "Miss, you misunderstood. You are not a wealthy family in the city."
"No?"
"Those who were called to the threshing floor were all children from poor families."
"?"
Fang Ruoyao was slightly startled and glanced at Pei Ruyi calmly: "Unexpectedly, he even wants offerings from poor families."
The boy was slightly stunned again: "Master Ji does not accept offerings."
"How do you know he doesn't accept offerings? Too much talk."
"Because...because my dog has also gone and wants to be the godfather to Master Ji."
Fang Ruoyao stiffened for a moment. Knowing that the topic was not self-serving, she quickly changed her words: "By the way, senior sister, speaking of offerings, my portion of offerings was shipped to the capital yesterday. I wonder how Ji You's offerings will be taken away? Why don't you ask my dad to make arrangements? A car accompanying you?”
Paying money to go to school, paying money to go to school, this kind of thing is unchanged even in this Qingyun world.
Although Fang Ruoyao's brother has many military exploits and is highly valued by Zhenbei Divine General, Fang Ruoyao is still a mortal after all, and he cannot be exempted from worship.
However, the Ji family has been in decline for a long time, and she doesn't think Ji You can afford this offering.
When Pei Ruyi heard her asking about this, he couldn't help but glance at her, and then said: "If you are still in the lower three realms, you don't need to pay tribute to the sect."
"Huh?"
"Not to mention turning it in. With his cultivation level, if he chooses Xuanyuan Immortal Mansion, he can even receive a share of the monthly money given to him by the sect."
Pei Ruyi picked up the half-full wine glass: "Otherwise, why do you think Cao Jiaoxi squats at the gate of the city every day like a guard against thieves, for fear that Ji You will be poached?"
After hearing this, Fang Ruoyao looked slightly stunned.
She originally thought that all the students in Tianshu Academy were the same, but then she realized that even if they entered Tianshu Academy, they would be divided into three, six or nine grades.
