Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Luo Zhang got a rough idea without Hu Luanyao having to explain himself. After thinking for a long time, Hu Luanyao was not from the Tang Dynasty, but actually an envoy of Goguryeo. No wonder he didn't know it.
It can also explain why she can take the scientific examination.
In the Tang Dynasty, men were superior to women. Although Goguryeo also followed this policy, women could learn various cultures, take scientific examinations, and serve as officials in the court, which was completely different from the Tang Dynasty.
It is reasonable for His Majesty to allow her to take the scientific examination. I am afraid that he also wants to see how knowledgeable this Goguryeo woman is and to inquire about the situation in Goguryeo. I am afraid that this is His Majesty's deep intention.
After some guessing, Luo Zhang looked up at Hu Luanyao, cupped his hands and said, "It turns out he is the Goguryeo envoy from Xialantian County. He is a member of the Ministry of Industry and the director of the Dockyard Department. Luo Zhang is very polite!"
Since he has an official status, Luo Zhang can't let down his momentum. Naturally, he has to reveal his identity. At least he can't be compared with others. That would be so embarrassing.
Even Hu Luanyao, who had stayed in the Tang Dynasty for two years, was a little surprised when he heard Luo Zhang reported a long list of official positions and titles!
The main reason is that Luo Zhang is too young. At such a young age, he has become a sixth-rank official of the Tang Dynasty, and he is also an imperial knight. This is not a title passed down by his ancestors, but a title earned by himself. This has its essence. different.
In the Tang Dynasty, since His Majesty succeeded to the throne, he has only heard about the reduction of titles. He has not been awarded titles for a long time. He has just returned to Goguryeo. So many things happened in Chang'an City that he doesn't know about?
Looking at Luo Zhang's young face, Hu Luanyao was a little confused and wanted to rationalize it, but Luo Zhang really shocked her too much.
You might say that Changsun Chong is powerful, but until now, Changsun Chong has not entered the official career.
Cheng Chumo, the younger generation in Chang'an, also became the captain of the city defense department, but that was a military position, and not many civil servants entered the official career. There were too many civil service exams, and most of the children of aristocratic families could only rely on their ancestors to be given by His Majesty. It is simply impossible to enter an official career by yourself after taking an official position.
If you want to talk to them about eating, drinking, having fun and drinking flowers and wine, they will be very eloquent. If you talk to them about the Four Books and Five Classics, it is simply playing the piano to an ox, and they have no idea what you are talking about.
Luo Zhang can enter the official career at this age and even become a sixth-rank official. This is not something ordinary people can do. Even if he has been in the officialdom for ten years, he may not be able to achieve Luo Zhang's achievements. No wonder Hu Luanyao is in a mess.
Seeing that Hu Luanyao was dumbfounded and didn't speak, Luo Zhang smiled. Then he glanced around at the students who had just despised him, raised his chin, and looked arrogant, as if he was saying, "When I saw my brother's Do you have strength? If you don’t believe it, you’d better take the exam!
"Hate value from Zhang Junbo +1000"
"From..."
"Hate value from Xia Cunhai +1000"
"From..."
"Hate value from Li Yifu +1000"
"From..."
A large wave of hatred points rushed towards Luo Zhang, which made Luo Zhang smile with joy. Did you see it? This is strength. It feels so good for so many people to hate me. With so many hatred points, this wave of hatred is good.
Um? Li Yifu? Damn it! Li Yifu actually took the imperial examination with him here?
Li Yifu, the eternal Great Yin man, is a Great Yin man who is no worse than Changsun Wuji. His despicable and shameless level is even better than that of Changsun Wuji. He is simply shameless and has no lower limit!
Damn it, labor and management actually did the scientific research with him, and he was resented by Li Yifu, the eternal Yin man. Why don't you be so sad!
No, labor and management cannot be passive like this. They must either nip this eternal Great Yin Man in the bud and deny him the opportunity to become an official, or else he must control this Great Yin Man in his own hands.
By the way, it would be a good idea to use Li Yifu to deal with Changsun Wuji. After all, what this person did in history was to help Mei Niang rise to power and frame up loyal generals.
It's absolutely perfect when used against Changsun Wuji!
Luo Zhang raised his head and glanced around. Although the system prompted that Li Yifu was here, Luo Zhang didn't know who Li Yifu was!
After watching for a long time, Luo Zhang didn't have the slightest clue. Turning his eyes, Luo Zhang coughed and said, "Li Yifu!"
As soon as the voice came out, a person was slightly startled. He looked at Luo Zhang with some aversion and did not respond. But he didn't know that this non-response was already a response. Luo Zhang was smart enough to see that something was wrong with this guy at a glance.
Li Yifu, Li Yifu, you are still playing hide-and-seek with labor and management at this time. You are the one who is being talked about insidiously and cunningly!
Now that he has found Li Yifu, Luo Zhang didn't say hello to him. He will talk to this guy after the imperial examination is over. If he is sensible enough, he will not trouble him. If he dares not to recognize the promotion, humph, then don't blame him for being cruel!
Seeing that Luo Zhang no longer paid attention to him, Li Yifu breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he was very confused, how could Luo Zhang know him?
You must know that the identities of the two are very different. He is just a child from a poor family, and Luo Zhang, even if the Luo family declines, it is not something he can compare with, but an existence that he needs to look up to.
What's more, Luo Zhang is now at the height of his popularity, so popular that he goes to Chang'an Avenue to ask if there is anyone who doesn't know Luo Zhang's name.
First place in the martial arts competition, the youngest lord, the youngest official in the Tang Dynasty, Zhanfang Jun, Dou Zhang Sun Chong, there are countless such deeds, not to mention the marriage granted by His Majesty. Although there are conditions proposed by the princess, but In Li Yifu's view, it was just a formality, a manifestation of the princess's reserve, and she would eventually marry Luo Zhang.
How could such a character interact with him? How do you know his name?
I can’t figure it out, Li Yifu really can’t figure it out.
After waiting for a while, several old men wearing purple robes and official hats finally walked into the hall. These people looked to be in their fifties, but they were already considered old men in the Tang Dynasty.
After these people came in, they glanced at everyone. The old man who led him coughed and said: "Students from all over the world can gather in Chang'an today to participate in the production test that is held every three years. This is the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty. To see so many students, old man I am very pleased. I hope that all of you can enter the official career and become one of us. However, this is just my wish. Whether you can pass the scientific examination depends on your own efforts. Well, I won’t say more, dear students. Follow them to their respective tables according to the good cards in their hands. There will be test questions for you. Here I want to remind all students, don’t cheat and cheat. Once you are discovered, you will be expelled from the test. Don’t make mistakes. !”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, a group of young eunuchs came in and led the students one by one according to their number plates to another hall, where long tables and chairs had been arranged, and the tables were also placed. After putting down the pens, inks, paper and inkstones, the examiner will announce what will be tested and how it will be tested, and the students will answer.
Luo Zhang's position was at a long table at the back. By coincidence, Hu Luanyao was on his left and Li Yifu was on his right.
After seeing Luo Zhang on his left, Li Yifu almost fainted. He lamented in his heart why he was so close to Luo Zhang. He was very nervous in his heart, but he pretended to be quite calm on the surface.
Naturally, Luo Zhang also saw Li Yifu at the first time. Different from Li Yifu's lament, Luo Zhang almost laughed out loud. He had to say that this was all God's will. God was helping him. Before, he was still thinking about how to deal with Li Yifu. I was busy with the scientific examination, but I didn't expect someone to bring me a pillow when I fell asleep.
As for Hu Luanyao, who was on Luo Zhang's left, he didn't think too much. After seeing Luo Zhang next to him, he just nodded slightly to Luo Zhang and sat there looking ahead, waiting for the start of the scientific examination.
Luo Zhang was also looking around. He didn't know where this hall was. It was quite large, with more than 200 long tables. However, this shouldn't be the only examination room. Luo Zhang had already estimated it before queuing outside. The total number of people for this scientific examination is at least a thousand. After all, this is a triennial examination for the entire Tang Dynasty. It is strange that there are not many people.
However, there are very few people who can cross this single-plank bridge and soar into the sky. Ten people are already very good. In the early days of the Tang Dynasty, the admission of officials was extremely strict. It can be seen from Li Shimin's warning to the examiners. Li Shimin doesn't like cheating!
