The whole place was in an uproar.
Wu Zhuangyuan is actually a woman?
Where does this put the big man’s face in this situation?
This is a martial arts exercise!
The matter of conquering and killing enemies has been a matter of men since ancient times.
Liu Zheng also once said.
Women, please stay away from war.
However……
When Liu Zheng knew that Xie Chan had won the top prize in Wushu with an absolute overwhelming advantage, he actually hesitated. It stands to reason that the top pick in this first imperial examination would definitely be a high-ranking person in Yanqi City in the future... so Give an important position to a woman?
But he still intends to respect the facts.
"this……"
This time, it was Xie Chan's turn to be a little surprised.
This thief didn't regret it?
What should she do?
Do you really want to be an official here in Yanqi?
"Is it a pussy?"
"How can it be!"
"We don't believe it!"
Xiong Ao felt that it was a disgrace for a man to be surpassed by a woman, so he immediately started to quarrel.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the whole room changed.
If there really is a female champion of martial arts, wouldn't she be the female general of Yanqi City in the future? When they thought that they, a group of gentlemen, had to listen to a woman, they felt something was wrong all over as they had never taken women seriously.
"Do not believe!"
"How can this be!"
Xie Chan smiled lightly.
But Xiao Tao behind her refused to give in. She stood up and scolded with raised eyebrows and raised eyebrows: "Why don't you believe it? Just you guys, my lady stabbed each one without getting angry!"
Xiong Ao smiled coldly: "You're really talking nonsense, I'm not afraid of flashing my tongue..."
Unexpectedly, the words were not finished yet.
A flying knife had been thrown out by Xiao Tao. The knife was extremely fast. Even Xiong Ao, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, did not react for a moment, and his face changed slightly.
Unexpectedly, the flying knife barely missed his head.
Xiong Ao's high-tied hair suddenly fell into a ball, and his long hair was flowing like a butcher's.
Xiao Tao couldn't help but cover her mouth and said with a smile: "At this time, how are you different from that woman?"
The whole audience burst into laughter.
"you you you……"
Xiong Ao was ashamed and angry, what happened to him? Isn’t this the Feng Shui of the Western Region wrong? First, he was hit eight times by Pei Qianyun, but that was all. Today I was actually humiliated by a woman. But did he also know that if this little girl had murderous intentions towards him just now, he would have been dead and dismembered long ago!
Everyone in the audience was also laughing and surprised.
The one who is laughing is that Xiong Ao has never received any good fruit since he came to the Western Region. What is surprising is that this is just a maid, but her skills are so outstanding. What about her young lady?
Qin Changfeng also came to the scene at this time. In response to everyone's questions, he laughed and said: "Everyone, Miss Xie's answer sheet will be announced tomorrow. If there is any fraud in the imperial examination of the Imperial Guard, you are welcome to report it!"
Only then did everyone suddenly agree,
Qin Changfeng said so, and all their doubts were gone.
Opening the test papers is also the best way.
Qin Changfeng said loudly: "Everyone who has passed the examination should go home and rest for the time being. After three days, the young master will select talents and use them. The good news will also be sent to your home along with your appointment letters!"
Everyone left happily.
Those who won the exam are all speculating about what kind of position they can get.
Those who did not win the lottery also felt the joy and joy of others, and decided in their hearts to come again next year!
The imperial examination will be an annual event, and they still have a chance!
…
"How can this not make sense? How can it not make sense!"
Cui Gong was carried home by several of his servants. When he returned home, he still looked angry and said angrily: "This Liu Zhizhou bullied me too much!"
today.
He has become the biggest joke in Yanqi City. I went out in all glory, but came back disappointed.
Slap in the face!
What a slap in the face!
He was the head of the dignified Cui family back then, and it would not be an exaggeration to say he is a contemporary literary giant. He was so famous, but in the end, Yanqi didn't even get a single official position?
Could it be that...
Are Yanqi's selection criteria more stringent than those of the Long Yan Dynasty?
How unreasonable!
How unreasonable!
He spat out another mouthful of old blood, and a murderous intention flashed in his eyes: "Quickly, write to Jinghua immediately. Liu Zhizhou's imperial examination system is a strategy to deceive the emperor! I must make sure that he cannot What a death!"
"It's Master!"
…
Protectorate.
Liu Zheng, Liu Dahao, Qing Yangshuo and others finally finished their work and smiled at each other.
Qingyang Shuo couldn't help but praise: "The imperial examination system of the young master will definitely become famous all over the world. I am lucky to have met such a wise master in my third life."
Liu Zheng quickly said humbly: "Sir, you are so complimentary. But this Cui Gong..."
He looked at King Yong next to him.
King Yong smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu, what do you say to Ranggu... This Cui Gong is the person that Master Zhu has promised to take care of..."
He sighed deeply: "Although the young master's move is more inclined to our aristocratic class, it is unwise to offend Zhu Zhen in this way."
Liu Zheng sneered and said: "What's the use of that bullshit article? It's all pieced together and exaggerated! Our Western Region Protectorate wants real talents, not boasters!"
"It is pitiful that Jiuzhou is angry and relies on wind and thunder, and thousands of horses are silent. I urge God to cheer up and send down talents of any kind!"
"King Yong, since the Holy One has given me the will to act, then this Western Region must be left to me!"
King Yong smiled bitterly.
Just wait and see.
I'm afraid this matter is not over yet.
…
at this time.
Zhu Zhen from Jinghua has also received the news.
When he heard the news that Cui Gong was not selected, his expression suddenly changed and he shouted: "What did you say? Cui Gong was not selected? He is not among the thousand people?"
The servant nodded in panic: "Master, this Liu Zhizhou has gone too far! He doesn't take you seriously at all!"
Zhu Zhen's eyes turned cold.
He is the official minister of the current Longyan Dynasty, with power over the government and the public.
One of his concubines came from the Cui family.
And she happens to be Cui Gong's daughter.
He originally thought that if he said hello to King Yong, a little Cui Gong would be able to arrange it. Although the contradiction between the aristocratic class and the scholar-bureaucrat class is very deep, on the surface, they are both privileged classes. Logically speaking, they should be inseparable from each other in this small matter.
did not expect……
I didn’t expect that!
It is definitely not the cowardly old fox of King Yong who is obstructing this matter. Then, there is only one possibility.
That's Liu Zhizhou!
He smiled coldly: "Liu Zhizhou, does he really think that he is a meritorious official? How dare a young official to disobey me, Zhu Zhen?"
A bystander said: "Sir, I heard that Mr. Liu of the Hanlin Academy has gone to see the Holy One and advised the adoption of the imperial examination system..."
"What?"
Zhu Zhen's eyes darkened and he gritted his teeth: "Change my clothes and enter the palace!"
"yes!"
Zhu Zhen was anxious as he hurriedly got into the carriage.
The imperial examination system really made many people restless.
Because of the imperial examination.
It's really subversive of tradition.
Even the aristocracy close to Liu Zheng openly opposed it. Scholar-officials... It stands to reason that they should support the imperial examination. But over the years, scholar-bureaucrats have become a fixed interest group in the Longyan Dynasty. How can they want their own interests to be divided up by a group of students from poor families?
so.
No matter who they were, all the civil and military officials of the Longyan Dynasty boycotted the imperial examination.
It's just that the scholar-bureaucrats didn't resist as strongly as the nobles.
so.
Zhu Zhen believed that Liu Zheng was seeking death!
Come to the palace.
This was not the case in the past.
At the door of the Yangxin Hall, an old man with white hair was kneeling on his knees. He was none other than Master Liu of the Hanlin Academy!
"Your Majesty, Liu Yu will die to remonstrate and reform the imperial examination system so that Longyan can continue for another thousand years!"
"Holy Lord..."
"It is pitiful that Jiuzhou is angry and relies on wind and thunder, and thousands of horses are silent. I urge God to cheer up and send down talents of any kind!"
"Liu Zhizhou, you are so kind!"
"Your Majesty, if you have the ambition to clean up the world, go out and see the decay of the Longyan Dynasty!"
At this time, it was already late autumn, and the autumn wind was rustling. The old man looked lonely and helpless in the autumn wind. There were many people nearby, pointing at him.
The ministers are persuading.
The eunuchs are also persuading.
It can be seen that Liu Yu has been here for a long time, but he has not been summoned by the emperor. So he knelt here and remonstrated.
However……
As his words became more and more exaggerated and sharp, many people were startled.
"Old Liu, Old Liu...be careful what you say!"
"This, Mr. Liu, what you said..."
These people were all sweating for Mr. Liu.
King Qin, who had arrived at the scene a long time ago, also smiled coldly when he heard these words: "Mr. Liu's words, does this mean that the Holy One has lost sight of people? How presumptuous!"
"You will deceive the emperor and ignore your superiors!"
"Our great Dragon Flame Dynasty, in the hands of the Holy Master, has just expanded its territory, but you say it is rotten?"
"What are your intentions?"
The aristocrats were all criticizing each other.
At this time, Zhu Zhen also came over and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, you are the emperor's teacher, a great scholar in the literary world. You have always been impartial and not involved in court affairs, but you are so respectful to a junior. Could it be..."
"Mr. Liu's granddaughter, will you be betrothed to Liu Zhizhou?"
The whole audience was shocked.
This is quite heartbreaking to say.
Even the King of Qin found it unbelievable.
What happened to Zhu Zhen today... You know, a few days ago, Zhu Zhen had been ambiguous about the imperial examination system.
Come here today...
The direct and heart-breaking words not only made his position clear in front of everyone, but also seemed not to take Liu Yu seriously.
Liu Yu was so angry that he trembled all over and pointed at Zhu Zhen: "You, you, you... you are slanderous! I, the Hanlin Academy, will never take part in the affairs of you guys!"
A group of people sneered nearby.
A fool's errand?
Who doesn't live for fame and fortune, who doesn't live for power?
They have long been displeased with this group of people in the Hanlin Academy, and they try to make themselves aloof and aloof every day.
Liu Yu saw that no one in this group of civil servants was on his side, and he laughed miserably: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, have you seen this?"
"This is what is so rotten!"
"This is the worm in the court!"
"It's pity that I, Longyan, can't tolerate my loyal and courageous old minister!"
He stood up unsteadily.
Several young eunuchs tried to help him, but he pushed them away with one hand.
Everyone was relieved.
It looks like this old guy is leaving.
Who would have thought that Liu Yu looked up to the sky and laughed: "It is sad that Jiuzhou is angry and relies on wind and thunder, and thousands of horses are silent. I urge God to cheer up and send talents of any kind!"
"It is pitiful that Jiuzhou is angry and relies on wind and thunder, and thousands of horses are silent. I urge God to cheer up and send down talents of any kind!"
"Your Majesty!"
"Old minister, great bachelor of two dynasties!"
"Today's admonishment..."
"The imperial examination system can revive dragon flames!"
After saying that, he shouted, and hit the tall pillar of the Nourishing Heart Hall. His head was broken immediately and blood flowed, and he died on the spot!
"boom!"
"don't want!"
Everyone was shocked.
