Nirvana In Fire - Chapter 140

In February of this year, it coincides with Chun Wei, which takes place every three years. According to the system, the ceremony is presided over by the emperor. The emperor appoints one examiner and 18 deputy examiners to select students from all over the world.

At this time in the past years, in order to help their own people compete for the position of new division teacher, the crown prince and the honorary king will all try their best to secretly make trouble, and the examiners who are on the top of the party are naturally first. The strategy is to take into account the interests of the respective masters and subordinates, and the practice of vulgarity in private prevails.

Some loyal imperial court officials have been admonished countless times. Not only is it of little use, but it also looks bad in the end.

The shortcomings of the electorate have basically become a major illness in the North Korean government, and people with a little knowledge understand it.

But everyone understands better that this year’s situation will definitely change. As for how it changes, many people are watching.

In addition to the eldest son of the hereditary Guixun family, the imperial examination is the only way for most people to open up the career of civil servants. The various aspects involved are very complicated. Geography, origin, in-laws, old age, teachers … Many factors can affect the final result. , Not just involving party struggles, in order not to succumb to these and put an end to all the customs, it is necessary to withstand the pressure from all parties, and at the same time ensure that you are absolutely clean and fair, so as not to be mistaken by others .

At this time, the prince was out and Yu Yu was claustrophobic. It seemed that only King Jing could influence the emperor to determine the candidate for the examiner this year.

If he intends to exercise this influence, no one would dare to argue with him at this time.

At the end of January, the Libei Department announced the auspicious day of this year ’s spring test. Emperor Liang asked Jing Wang ’s opinion on the candidate for the examiner at the Chaotang Church. “Think a few days”, although there is no clear answer.

But obviously he did not intend to stay out of the matter.

However, reversing abuses is not an easy task. If it is not done, it will be counterproductive, so everyone is waiting for the final list to come out.

In fact, he was waiting to see the prince’s final decision, and he was not afraid of offending people.

Trying to recommend the kind of person Geng Jie he admired, still succumbing to the conventions of the past years, getting a well-examined examiner, leaving a gap for some special people to be promoted.

On February 4, the Zhongshu edict was finally issued.

It was read in public by Secretary Li.

If people can actually drop their jaws, they can definitely pick up their chins on that day.

The deputy examiners are all the youngest and most vigorous officials in the six ministers, but the examiners are the old Cheng Zhiji of the old Fengge Pavilion, who is 73 years old.

Although Mr. Cheng has been nurturing at home for many years and has not stepped into the court, although Mr. Ge is a well-known honorary official, he still has a first-class official position in the system, which can be selected as the main examiner.

Just before, no one like him has ever been reactivated, and no one thought of him when they speculated about the possible candidates.

But what effect this kind of old and young recommended by Jing Wang is to achieve, everyone soon realized it.

Cheng Zhiji is not a particularly tough veteran.

He is gentle and gentle, and never refuses guests, nor does he disrespect others.

He knows the current affairs very much, but he doesn’t recognize him very much.

Because he hasn’t been to the court for many years.

I do n’t know the relationship between North Korea and China at all. I just need to mention something that everyone knows.

He had to be very uncomfortable when he came to him.

The point is that if there is no special relationship between the people and the earth, who dares to utter the words of martyrdom so clearly, especially for a person who has been forgotten for many years, and he can’t understand his profound veterans.

After all, the risk is still the first thing to consider. You can’t get familiar with it anyway. Just carry a large box of gold and silver jewelry to the door to ask people to do things. The new royals are not vegetarians.

However, from the selection of the examiner to the entrance examination, only ten days.

Before Cheng Zhiji got there, it was too late to find out, and the old man packed his bags and entered the examination room.

Without outside influence and individual selfishness, even arguments and dissent will become simple.

In fact, the biggest shortcoming of the combination of old and young is that the elders are old-fashioned, they do not accept new ideas, the young are arrogant and do not respect the experience of their predecessors.

This is what King Jing first considered when deciding on the candidate for “thinking for a few days.”

Although not all the suggestions in the final list were suggested, Emperor Liang himself changed a few of them, but the overall pattern has not changed, and finally achieved the desired effect of Jing Wang.

This is mainly due to the appropriateness of Cheng Zhiji’s choice.

Although he is old, his temperament is not stubborn, and he is willing to listen to people’s debates. At the same time, he is a former university scholar and an old Fengge Pavilion. Where is the thick foundation? Mr. has been convinced, and no one dares to disrespect him.

Once the examiner does not object to the eclectic and recklessness of the young, and the deputy examiners recognize the authority of the examiner’s authority, the mutual restraint can naturally become complementary and will not cause major conflicts.

In fact, Chun Wei of this year is far from being able to miss any talent, because that is impossible, but at the very least, this is definitely the cleanest and fairest scientific expedition in years.

Jing Jing ’s goal is “to do nothing,” he did not expect to clear up all the accumulated defects at once, nor did he adopt a harder, colder, more prone to dissatisfaction and opposition to ensure integrity, the first thing he has to change is ” The old notion of “doing no harm without becoming a subject” cuts off many of the so-called conventions that have continued for many years, thus taking the first step of rectifying elections.

Chun Wei ended smoothly and there was no big disturbance, which made Emperor Liang very happy.

What he was most worried about was that Jing Jing did not know the current affairs and blindly tossed the political affairs according to his own thoughts. Now he is gradually happy, and he is naturally happy.

In the blink of an eye, the grass long warrior flies, and in March, the inner court begins to prepare for the royal spring hunting and the lucky Jiu’an Mountain from the palace.

Among the princes, apart from the honorary king who was still claustrophobic and not allowed to drive, the rest of course had to go, plus nearly 200 people from the clan and the emperor, and each brought a group of entourages.

The queen was still condemned to stay, as in previous years, but the concubine was not the Yuegui concubine who once crowned the Sixth Palace, but became the concubine.

Two days before the scheduled instrument ride out of Beijing, Mu Qing once again took his eight-lifted Wang Jiao to Su Zhai, and carried it to the backyard before landing, and the only one who came out of the sedan except the little prince himself, There is another young man who seems to recover from a serious illness.

Li Gang came over silently and saluted.

Turn around and lead the two into the main house of Mei Changsudi.

Mu Qing said happily, as soon as he entered the door, he arched his hand toward the throne: “He brought me, everything is safe on the road.

Nothing. After speaking, the side of the body will show the youth behind him.

“Thank you, Lord Mu.” Mei Changsu smiled and returned the gift.

At the same time, he glanced at the young man, “In Xiamei Changsu, I was fortunate enough to meet General Wei. Will you be well injured?”

Wei Zheng held his heart excited and shivered: “Mr. Su’s grace of salvation.

It ’s unforgettable … “As I said, I wanted to bow my knees, but was stopped by the other person’s soft eyes, so I had to make a deep blow.

Mu Qing felt that the task was completed, and flicked his hand easily and asked, “Where is Fei Liu?” “He is not there.” Mei Changsu understood the meaning of this little prince, but now someone in the secret room is waiting. Evicted, “I will take him to the house someday.

But I’m afraid I can’t be with me today. I want to place General Wei first. “

“Remember to come.” Mu Qing is a cheerful person.

I didn’t feel anything. After a word, I turned around and walked away.

His figure just disappeared.

Wei Zheng fell to his knees with a thump, and said with tears: “Young Master … all blame Wei Zheng for a moment …”

“All right.

Do you need to say this between me? Mei Changsu didn’t help him either.

Instead, he squatted down, holding his shoulder.

“Be quiet, don’t be too excited. I want to take you to see King Jing. In front of him, don’t lose your title to me.”

“Yes……”

“Get up.”

Wei Zheng inhaled and stretched his hand to hold Mei Changsu upright. The two came to the inner room side by side, opened the secret door, and walked in one after the other.

“His Royal Highness Jing, General Wei is here.” After saying this briefly, Mei Changsu also flashed away like Mu Qing and quietly retreated into the corner.

“Wei Zheng … see His Royal Highness …”

Looking at the old friend who thought he was farewell forever, Xiao Jingyan felt that he was more upset than expected, and calmly stabilized and stepped forward to support Wei Zheng.

Standing behind him, Li Zhanying couldn’t help but take a step forward, staring at Wei Zheng up and down to see carefully, and afterwards, his eyes turned red.

“His Royal Highness, everyone sit down and talk.

If I want to talk tonight, it should not be short. Meng Zhi, who had seen Wei Zheng many times before, was in the most stable mood and came over to arrange a seat.

Lie Yingying insisted on standing by the side of the army, and Wei Zheng glanced at Mei Changsu quietly. He obviously wanted to stand behind him too. Unfortunately, the latter was leaning against the Kang table and playing with the stove without raising his eyes.

“Wei Zheng, meet in the dark room, don’t be restrained, I have many words to ask you, you sit down first.” Jing Wang pointed to the seat nearest to him, “Many doubts, I have been hiding in my heart for many years, I thought There is no answer anymore, I am so blessed to be blessed by the heavens, I can see the old man again, and I hope you will solve my puzzles one by one. “” Yes. “Wei Zheng gave a deep gift, and then slowly sat down,” Your Highness, please, Wei Zheng must know All words, all words. “

Jing Jing stared at his eyes and asked in the first sentence: “Is there any other survivor?”

Wei Zheng made preparations for this question, so he immediately replied: “Yes.

It ’s just not much, and even fewer have positions.

Because he was declared a rebel and had to perform hard labor, even soldiers dared not return home, and could only live in a different place. “

“What else do I know?”

“Under the captain, I am afraid that your Highness is unfamiliar, and then up, only Nie Duo …”

Jing Jing couldn’t help but look at him: “Nie Duo is still alive?”

“Yes.

But where he is now, I do n’t know.

In short, hide it anonymously. “

“Nie Duo is also the main person … What about Bei Gu? Bei Gu really didn’t survive any one?”

Wei Zheng lowered his head, wondering if he could not bear to answer, or was unwilling to answer.

“How could this be …” Jing Wang tried to stabilize his trembling voice. “Other people don’t know. I know best. Chi Yuying is the strongest team. Xie Yu and Xia Jiang alone brought 100,000 soldiers from the west. How could it be like this? “

Wei Zheng Huo Ran raised his head, his eyes like fire, “Don’t even your Highness think we were killed like this with Xie Yuxiu? Do our Red Flames really are rebels, will we fight with the army appointed by the court like that? ? “

King Jing grabbed Wei Zhengdi ’s arm and squeezed his bones almost hard, “You mean, you did n’t resist, Xie Yu still took the poisonous hand? But, with Xiaoshu’s temperament, even though he didn’t at first I thought that once the butcher knife was raised, he would never sit still! “

“Your Highness is right, but …” Wei Zheng’s cheek masses were tight and stretched with iron-like lines. “When the butcher knife was raised, we just experienced a fierce battle and no longer have strength …”
