today.
It was the first day that all the officials of the Protectorate took office together.
As the Sima of the Western Region Protectorate, Ling Chen immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Some people are envious that this son, a student from a poor family, did a carp leaping over the dragon gate here in Yanqi, and in an instant he entered the hall and became famous all over the world. Some people are not angry. How can this little-known boy be able to take on such an important task?
Especially those who won the exam.
In the past, in the Longyan Dynasty, who was not a famous talent and a talent with a far-reaching reputation? It was strange that they felt so happy that the title of No. 1 Scholar was snatched away by a poor student.
so……
Although Liu Zheng has announced that Ling Chen is now the unrivaled Sima of the Protectorate, many people are still waiting to see the joke today.
Everyone is waiting for this guy who has never governed a township or county to make a fool of himself.
did not expect……
As soon as he started, he was so fierce.
Divert water from the Western Regions and capture Liangzhou?
Many people stared at this boy in shock. Is this a lunatic?
Several people were just about to refute.
At this time, the imperial edict came belatedly.
Qingyang Shuo and Liu Zheng looked at each other and led everyone out to greet them.
This time, it was not General Manager Zhou who came to announce the decree. After all, General Manager Zhou was not young at all. It was okay to jump around in the Longyan Dynasty. If he came to the Western Regions, he might easily die in the desert.
It was a young eunuch. Liu Zheng glanced at him and saw that he was also an acquaintance. He was a junior eunuch following Manager Zhou.
When the young eunuch looked at Liu Zheng, he smiled happily and said very humbly: "Liu Zhizhou, congratulations! Holy grace, such great grace!"
Liu Zheng looked confused.
Suddenly, his expression changed slightly: "Master Huang, the Holy One will not grant me a marriage, right?"
The young eunuch named Huang laughed and said: "Liu Zhizhou is indeed smart. Isn't this a great joy? Liu Zhizhou, do you know that the Holy Emperor has not given anyone a marriage in more than thirty years since he has been on the throne! What are you doing? But it’s the first time!”
"boom!"
Liu Zheng almost missed the point with his kick, as ten thousand alpacas rushed past in his heart.
Are we really coming to this stage?
Qingyang Shuo also smiled faintly.
Qin Changfeng, Jiang Xuan and others were snickering.
Liu Zheng was about to cry but had no tears, and was extremely melancholy.
He doesn’t want to get married!
The key thing is that he is not interested at all in this ancient tradition of parents ordering matchmakers. Even if he wants to get married, he has to marry the person he loves. He chooses it by himself, not someone else gives him a marriage!
Political marriage.
In ancient times, it was not uncommon, and Liu Zheng also knew that based on his current reputation, there would definitely be a "well-matched" and "virtuous" woman to choose from. But he still felt weird...
He absolutely refused!
But whether he refuses or not, the imperial edict must be accepted.
Next, it’s the same process again.
Everyone knelt down and proclaimed the imperial edict.
During this process, Xie Chan, who had just assumed the post of General Yulin, almost lost his temper and refused to kneel down. Xiao Tao was so frightened that she pulled her back, and Xie Chan knelt down unwillingly.
The content of the decree is simple.
It was the belated reward given to Liu Dahao for taking Yanqi City and rebuilding the Protectorate. As well as the promotion of the imperial examination system, the old emperor seems to be very satisfied with these things. This time, he will directly reward 100,000 gold, 300,000 silk cloth, and 100,000 slaves!
Good guy!
Liu Zheng took a breath when he heard this. This is already a big deal for the Long Yan Dynasty, which is now in decay and under huge financial pressure.
The Marquis outside the Pass, advance to the title of Champion!
Third Baronet, promoted to First Baronet.
But Liu Zheng was not promoted to an official position - it seemed that all the credit was attributed to Liu Dahao again.
but……
Grant marriage!
This thing that gave Liu Zheng a headache has finally come to an end.
The old emperor showed great grace and intended to facilitate the good deeds of young talents like Liu Zhizhou. He not only granted Sanniang a royal wife, but also brought a roster to Liu Zheng... a roster of beauties?
Eunuch Huang looked envious and said with a smile: "Liu Dahao, the Holy Father has said that the Western Region has been initially decided, and the country of Dawan can slowly make plans for it. During this year's Shangyuan Festival, Mr. Liu and Liu Zhizhou must return to Beijing to report on their work. ! By the way, this marriage that attracts the world’s attention is also decided..."
Liu Dahao jumped up, grabbed Eunuch Huang's hand, and laughed loudly: "Very good, very good, Mr. Huang, it's a good rest, a good rest!"
With that said, he handed the "Roster of Beauties of This Dynasty" to Liu Zheng and gave him an ambiguous look.
Liu Zheng couldn't laugh or cry.
As a father, I have long wished that I could get married.
Then, Liu Dahao took the eunuchs down to "rest". During this period, the benefits of red envelopes were naturally indispensable.
all of a sudden.
This group of people were left in the Duhu Mansion. They looked at Liu Zheng with various expressions and congratulated Liu Zheng. He was so happy that he was a holy family member, which was unique in the world.
The emperor granted marriage.
This was an incredible honor in ancient times. It can be said that it is absolutely possible to have a glorious family name and a glorious ancestor.
What's more, this Xie Tianyao has never been married since he came to the throne, but this is the first time for Liu Zhizhou. It can be seen that he is definitely trusted by the emperor and is going to prosper.
Liu Zheng smiled bitterly. He didn't even look at the "roster", but looked at Qing Yangshuo.
Marriage?
This incident, happening at this time, is simply a compliment to Liu Zheng!
Happy to be favored by a saint?
actually not!
This was another move by the old emperor Xie Tianyao, which put Liu Zheng in the vortex of the Longyan Dynasty's struggle for power...
Just now, they had learned about the death remonstrance of the great scholar that happened in the Longyan Dynasty. Liu Zheng immediately understood that this must be everything arranged by the old emperor.
In this regard, scholars all over the world may be sad for a long time.
But Liu Zheng looked at it very objectively.
In order to promote the imperial examination system, the death of a bachelor is simply not worth mentioning in the torrent of history... Moreover, the death of Liu Yu will leave his name in history.
Liu Zheng's heart did not waver.
only……
The pilot of this imperial examination is actually set in Liangzhou?
Liu Zheng and Qingyang Shuo looked at each other again.
Then he deliberately looked at Ling Chen.
Ling Chen couldn't bear it anymore and said excitedly: "Sir, this is a good opportunity for us to win Liangzhou!"
Everyone's spirits were lifted.
If anything is heard at this time, they are all fools. They are not qualified to serve in the Protectorate.
Liu Zheng was very satisfied with Ling Chen's performance on the first day.
You can see it too.
Other people's doubts about Ling Chen at the beginning gradually turned into convictions - the ten-year plan this boy came up with to divert water, develop and strengthen the army was almost impeccable.
Liu Zheng and Qingyang Shuo were destined to return to Liangzhou.
The Western Region needs someone who can truly carry the banner.
But Liu Zheng also understood.
Ling Chen's personality is too extreme, and he is obviously a little complacent about his plan at this time.
Gotta hammer it.
Liu Zheng chuckled: "Sima thinks, which one is better, digging canals to divert water or digging a grand canal to irrigate the whole country?"
"What?"
This time, it's not just Ling Chen.
Qingyang Shuo and others also took a breath of air.
