"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations!"

More than 20 years ago, during the imperial examination of the Great Xia Emperor's Palace, a young Confucian in white opened his hand and shouted out this 24-character vision, the readers of the whole world resonated in an instant, and found the direction that they had been fighting for and working hard for.

These few twenty-four words, like a lighthouse on the road ahead, released a light like the sun outward, tearing up the entire boundless darkness.

Therefore, in a sense, in recent years, Great Xia has not only ushered in a blowout of the spring of monks, but also the leapfrog development of scholars and literati.

Although Zhao Yu has not been on the throne for a long time, as a qualified emperor, he is extremely familiar with the entire context of Great Xia, and naturally understands the importance behind these twenty-four characters, but the young emperor is also a little surprised.

On the black and white, mellow and Taoist platform, the three disciples under the master's door sat cross-legged, and the passage of time in the surrounding black and white world seemed to stop, and then Zhao Yu, who slowly came back to his senses, opened his lips lightly, and the calm imperial voice came out again:

"Second Senior Brother, I'm very curious, how many years ago, you won the first-class champion crown of this Great Dynasty Test. ”

As soon as this question came out, he pursed his lips on the side, his back was straight, and the meticulous middle-aged armor soldier, his face full of wind and frost after the invasion of war showed a little thoughtful, and after a few breaths, he responded:

"If the last general remembers correctly, twenty-four years ago, spring. ”

After Sun Qian's voice fell, under the audience, Peng Mu, who had not gotten up on one knee for a long time, had a stronger shock in his eyes, although he had already guessed in his heart after listening to the exchange of several people, but at this time, when he heard Sun Cockroach speak, his heart was already shocked.

The number of scholars in Daxia is much more than that of monks, and since ancient times, there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts, so the difficulty of winning the champion can be imagined, and after each of the Great Dynasty candidates enters the court as an official, their career is often smooth and soaring.

For example, You Tingjian, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was also born as a champion, and was less than fifty years old, he was in charge of the Ministry of Rites.

Over the years, Peng Mu's understanding of Sun cockroaches can be said to be quite profound, so he learned that this middle-aged soldier who likes to squat in the fire camp and gnaw bones on weekdays, grinning half of the missing teeth and smiling, is actually a closed disciple of the master whom everyone admires in Great Xia, and the Zhao ruler of the two generations of the Great Xia royal family is a senior brother, and it is also the first champion of the twenty-four Great Dynasty, the horror in his heart can be imagined.

Sun Cockroach's series of titles that he didn't dare to imagine made Peng Mu feel a little dazed at this time, and then a calm imperial voice sounded in his ears again:

"According to the law of Great Xia, the conditions for entering the court as an official are harsh, and for those above the fifth grade, the top test of the Great Dynasty is only the minimum requirement, but on the other hand, the law does not stipulate the time limit for the champion, so the second senior brother, you are still the rare champion of our Great Xia, not only can you enjoy this glory that no one can take away, but also have the qualification to enter the court as an official. ”

After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he took a few breaths, looked at Sun Qian, who showed a little doubt in front of him, and continued to speak lightly:

"Therefore, I have an idea in my heart, I am about to set up a new yamen outside the six departments, called the Guanyou Division, its positioning is actually similar to the Teleportation Division, although it is within the six departments, but it is under the direct jurisdiction of me, and the specific functions will be said separately at that time, but in the name of Guanyou, it is natural to travel all over the entire Great Xia, mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, and even take the lead in entering those legendary forbidden places, I wonder if the second senior brother intends to accept the position of this Guanyou Sicheng?"

After the young emperor's faint imperial voice fell, several people on the interrogation platform did not speak, waiting for Sun Qian to concentrate and think alone, and for Zhao Yu, who was having a headache and lack of manpower, the middle-aged armor in front of him was undoubtedly the best candidate.

Glory is easy to convince the public, military merits are strong, and there is calmness after experiencing ups and downs, as for the twofold realm cultivation that has been shattered, it has never been a problem in front of Zhao Yu today.

When the black and white world fell silent, two figures slowly broke into the woods at the edge of the whole world.

The young Confucian scholar Shin Hao did not let the old butler and the rest of the female relatives follow, but supported the white-haired woman who was still crying alone, and slowly walked into the woods that looked extremely dark under the noon sun.

As soon as he stepped into the woods, the young Confucian scholar Xinhao frowned, because the light around him suddenly dimmed, as if he was gradually walking towards a bottomless abyss, and then the two stayed behind the tree where Sun Qian and Peng Mu had been hiding, and in this place, they could clearly see the traces of someone who had come.

"There really is someone, I don't feel wrong, it's him, he's back, he's finally back!"

When she saw the stamped marks on the ground, the white-haired woman couldn't control herself anymore, her whole body squatted, crying silently, and then the sound of crying and choking continued to come out:

"Why didn't he come to see me, why hasn't he ever come to see me after all these years, since he's not dead. ”

The young Confucian scholar Xinhao also squatted beside the middle-aged woman who was difficult to be, his eyes were full of pity, he did not directly open his mouth to comfort, but stretched out his hand, gently patted the shoulder of the aunt beside him, and after a long time, he said softly:

"Auntie, although this forest is a little remote, but because it is a short road to Willow Leaf Lane, there are still some people passing by in the past, I see some footprints leading to the distance, or let's continue to walk forward for a distance and take a look?"

As soon as Xin Hao's words fell, the middle-aged woman raised her head suddenly, her originally pale face suddenly flushed strangely, she got up from the ground while coughing, and hurriedly said:

"Yes, it shouldn't have gone far, Hao'er, let's chase!"

Then Confucian Xinhao sighed softly, and hurriedly supported the middle-aged woman who walked forward quickly, but was crumbling because of her weak body, in fact, Xinhao knew very well in his heart that once others were leaving, the chance of them being able to catch up was very small.

Then the two of them followed the footprints left by Sun Qian, and slowly walked to the depths of the forest, and at the same time, in the black and white world, the middle-aged armor soldier who had been thinking for a long time raised his hands and fell to the ground against Zhao Yu in front of him, and his solemn and deep voice came out directly:

"Weichen Sun Qian, I am willing to take off my military status, and I will obey the holy order and never give up!"
