Seeing that everyone looked at him puzzled, Yuan Fang grinned: "There is only so much to eat, there are fewer people you go to, and my subordinates and I can eat more, haha." After listening to Yuan Fang's words, the students smiled, and the atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot.

Yuan Fang continued: "You have all seen that these female soldiers have also stood with you for a day, and they are no worse than you at all compared to hard work. Okay, those who are willing to go will meet outside the gate of the Election Hall, and if you don't want to go, I will say goodbye on behalf of everyone, so be it. ”

Yu Mengbai opened his mouth and asked, "Lord Yuan, can we bring our entourage with us?" ”

Yuan Fang squinted at Yu Mengbai and said, "Damn, you kid is ruthless enough, it's not enough to eat for nothing alone, but you have to form a group to eat?" ”

If it were someone who talked to him like this in normal times, Yu Mengbai would definitely leave angrily, but today is different, first seeing Yuan Fang's arrogance and domineering, and witnessing his diligence and thrift, and finally these vulgar but innocuous jokes and humor, Yu Mengbai has a good impression of this seemingly domineering but approachable adult.

Yuan Fang glanced at the other candidates, and saw that many of them were a little disappointed, Yuan Fang could understand, what are these puzzles and hard work for many years? It is good to say that it is to serve the empire, to be honest, it is to want to get ahead and become a superior person, a common feature of these guys is excellent face, which is not difficult to get a glimpse from the sentence "Wen Wu Wu Wu Wu Second".

Yuan Fang righteously raised Yang Xing's name to banquet a group of candidates, which is to help Yang Xing accumulate popularity, no matter how many of these candidates can be shortlisted, they will not be dissatisfied with the empire against Yang Xing, the emperor, because of such and such changes, and try to resolve the contradictions that may exist between the two sides as much as possible.

And what about these candidates, Yuan Fang is very sure that no one will be absent, firstly, they will not save the emperor's face, and secondly, to be able to attend the banquet of His Majesty the Emperor, it is definitely a lifetime glory for them, such a good opportunity, if you can bring relatives and friends to attend, it will be perfect.

Yuan Fang thought for a while and then said: "Okay, I understand your thoughts, the relatives and friends who accompanied you have also been freezing outside for a day, in this way, I will give each of you two places, but first of all, the imperial banquet is for you candidates, so the people you bring must pay the bill according to the price." ”

The candidates want face, most of them don't care about the cost of a meal, even if there is no banquet from His Majesty, they will go to various hotels to celebrate, of course, there are also some candidates from poor families who can't afford to pay for the meal, these Yuan Fang also took into account, called a few melancholy and plainly dressed candidates, and wrote a note to no one, exempting their relatives and friends from the meal, so that they can enjoy the glory like everyone else.

Yuan Fang's move immediately won the gratitude and respect of these poor candidates, and it was precisely because of this small and insignificant favor that he was richly rewarded after a long time.

Sang Rou and Jieyue took a group of candidates and entourage to the Plum Blossom Restaurant, the shopkeeper of the restaurant had already been informed, ready all the ingredients and drinks for the hot pot, the candidates ate the hot pot, enjoyed the wine, and the heart was called a comfortable, a few glasses of wine down, and began to become crepe again, but some of them did not participate in this favorite talent competition in the past, but faintly learned to imitate Yuan Fang's style and way of speaking to get together to discuss practical matters.

Yuan Fang did not go to the Plum Blossom Restaurant to eat and drink, but went directly to the palace, as expected, as soon as they met, Yang Xing complained a lot, not against Yuan Fang, but complained that those university scholars and scholars did not know how to advance and retreat.

Those old guys were sent to the palace, and after seeing Yang Xing, they were indignant and told how Yuan Fang was domineering, how he bullied them, these civil officials, and how he abused the candidates, his words were sharp, and his words were only vicious, if someone who didn't understand the situation heard it, he would definitely think of Yuan Fang as a great evil in a country that did no evil and did not fight and bully people, but they were wrong, what is the relationship between Yang Xing and Yuan Fang? It was a friendship that escaped together, had to eat together, slept in the same bed and ate a pot of rice together, Yang Xing knew Yuan Fang's style of doing things very well, and he went straight to the front of the empire, but everything was for the sake of the empire and for his own sake, so those old guys who sued the black were unlucky, Yang Xing first asked the real situation of Huo Bingyan and Lin Menghan who were escorted in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and in a fit of anger, he sent the two scholars led by him to prison on the charges of falsely accusing the empire of loyalty, forming a party for personal gain, and cholera channel steel. Several others were also punished in a lighter or more severe way.

In this regard, Yuan Fang didn't feel anything, he didn't feel unbearable or relieved, in his eyes, those clowns who jumped beams for their own interests were not worth thinking about.

Wen Ke Anbang Wu Ke Dingguo, this sentence refers to both civil and military affairs, but at the same time, it also points out the role of civil and military generals, as a soldier, the importance of military generals Yuan Fang is very clear, but as a doctor, as a member of the empire, Yuan Fang also knows the importance and indispensability of civil officials, but today's civil officials, most of their thoughts are still stuck in the way of the past, clever tongue is like a spring to argue three points, or they are not used to seeing someone's actions as verbal criticism and writing, and the fact that they really do it is very few. Stern and mean, and the idea of mountaineering is particularly clear, unprincipled defense of subordinates, no distinction between right and wrong, and sparing no effort to suppress dissidents, this is a common problem of literati, and it must be completely changed.

After venting his general complaints, Yang Xing asked about his scientific examination, and Yuan Fang told everything in detail, especially the candidates' mentality was quite peaceful, which made Yang Xing breathe a long sigh of relief.

Yuan Fang also mentioned Yu Mengbai in particular, and said frankly that although this person has some bad habits of literati, he has real talent and learning, but he is not pedantic, Yang Xing suddenly became interested, opened the sealed exam papers on the desk, and found Yu Mengbai's exam papers to read carefully.

After a long time, Yang Xing put down Yu Mengbai's exam paper, nodded slightly, and said: "Well, this person is not only outstanding in writing, but also has unique insights into things, but some of his answers seem a little immature, and there are still big shortcomings. ”

Yuan Fang smiled and said, "You kid has only been the emperor for a few days, and you have begun to chew words?" ”

Yang Xing scratched his head embarrassedly: "Isn't this all forced by those university scholars, and I can't help it." Boss, do you think this can be done by Yu Mengbai? Can it be used? ”

Yuan Fang shook his head and said: "Just like you said, how to say it, lack of experience, not enough knowledge, but these can be made up, wait for the dark night to send someone to carefully investigate the origin of this Yu Mengbai, if the root is Miaohong, you can send it to the place to experience it first, learn and grow in practice, I believe that in a few years, this person will definitely become the pillar of the empire." ”
