Chapter 397: There is no worst, only a worse palace test

Duan Shaojun was also very sad and indignant, and the countless heroic and uplifting poems that Nima himself had prepared were not needed now. And that theory of war can also be regarded as a copy of my own heart-wrenching ...... Well, creation.

And now, the old Wang Ba, who has a sore egg, actually twisted his buttocks, and changed when he said it. I still have to write a policy theory, and it must not be the same as the last policy theory. Aren't you looking for trouble?

What to do? Looking at the rice paper test paper in front of him, Duan Shaojun could be said to be at a loss, and he only knew what he knew about this thing, "On the Passage of Qin" and "On Salt and Iron", but those things had already become historical books and had already been issued. As for the discussion of military affairs, everything that can be said in the theory of war has been said, do you want to let yourself get a copy of "Tang Taizong Li Weigong Asks Right" now.

The problem is that the ancient Chinese classics of the art of war, what I have read are nothing more than "The Art of War" and "Thirty-six Strategies", which even the ancients were familiar with. Either it is Simon's military treatises such as "On War" and "On Sea Power...... Wait, "The Theory of Sea Power"?

However, Duan Shaojun, who had just excitedly picked up the pen, couldn't help but hesitate a little, is it appropriate to write that thing about sea power in today's era?

Today's Tang Empire, at sea, can be said to lead the world's maritime history, but, in this era, the sea power is really weak compared to the land power, and it can even be described as not worth mentioning, the Tang Empire has nearly one million soldiers and horses, and the sailors and horses are gathered together, I am afraid that there are less than 60,000 people, and this still includes sailors, helmsmen, navigators, cooks and so on.

However, Duan Shaojun really can't find a strategy that can be tangent with the current state situation of the Tang Dynasty...... Well, borrowing from the object of creation, what to do?

#####

"This Duan Gongzi, do you write it, or don't you write it?" In the end, the guy who looked at Duan Shaojun's expression in a daze and saw that the two pillars of incense change was really a little unbearable.

"I said, brother, why are you in a hurry? I'm thinking about it, do you think the strategy is a ditch, and if you squeeze it, you will have it......" Duan Shaojun rolled his eyelids and glanced at this thing speechlessly.

"What does the strategy have to do with the ditch?" This guy looked confused, and he really didn't understand this stalk from the 21st century. "Besides, I really haven't heard of any strategies to squeeze......"

Ignore the demented buddy in front of me. Maybe it's the relationship with the ditch, Duan Shaojun glanced back at the two bad friends who had a generation gap with him, well, it didn't seem to be any better, the expressions of the two were like two severe fecal patients waiting for treatment, with a painful face, and the others were no better.

There are also people, with a broken jar and a broken posture, in the dance of the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing. Duan Shaojun couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration, with a big stroke of the pen, brushing and brushing, three words appeared on the test paper: the theory of wealth.

The scribe, who was bored and drank tea, couldn't help but be stunned. Is the theory of wealth a myth? He knows the word wealth, he also knows the word rich, and he also understands the word, but the question is why these three words give people a very strange feeling after they are pinched together?

"Treatise on Soldiers", "Treatise on Commerce", "Treatise on Salt and Iron", "Treatise on Spring and Autumn", ...... He has seen a lot of these things in the country, and he has also appreciated a lot of strategies, but there is no one whose title is so coppery.

He really wanted to see what this guy was writing, and the first sentence Duan Shaojun wrote made this person's eyes light up.

"What is wealth? What is the essence of wealth......"

Duan Shaojun ignored the slurp of the guy in front of him, even if the Dream Confusion Master was squatting in front of him at the moment, it couldn't stop him from serious academic discussions. Whether it is realistic or not, it is good to be able to write it, Duan Shaojun thought.

What is the basis of the wealth of this age, is it the silver and copper plates that are white flowers? Wrong, it is power, and power is the foundation of all wealth in this era. In this era when private property cannot be effectively respected and protected, only power is the basis of wealth.

And the Son of Heaven must be the richest man in this era.

Duan Shaojun had read the Theory of the Original Wealth, but he only skimmed it hastily, so the Theory of Wealth he wrote was more like a collection of classic sayings that were excerpted from some financial discourses in later generations and the Theory of the Original Wealth.

However, he just wrote that wealth can also be used as a political means to protect oneself and destroy the enemy, ring the bell three times, it's time to hand in the papers, damn!

In desperation, I had to stop writing, and then watched as the guy began to frantically plagiarize his masterpiece. This guy seems to have practiced, and his pen is like flying, but he is much faster than himself, and he writes in a small block and writes neatly and neatly, which makes Duan someone jealous.

It took an hour and a half to create by himself, but this buddy's transcription was completed smoothly in only half an hour, and while copying it, he also despised Duan Shaojun's words for being too ugly, so angry that this guy almost wanted to go head-to-head with this guy, but for the sake of the other party copying his own test papers very seriously, forget it.

I don't know what the outcome will be when I fight during the palace test, and Duan Shaojun doesn't want to try it no matter how stupid he is.

When the eunuchs carried stacks of test papers into the Taiji Palace, as for Duan Shaojun and other scholars, they still knelt on the ground and continued to wait for the end of the review before they could enter the hall to thank the Son of Heaven. And those who are responsible for transcribing naturally slapped their butts directly because they completed the task.

More than a dozen examiners and the chief and deputy examiners also began to review the examination papers, and other civil and military ministers also came to point fingers, during which there were constant disputes, which can be described as constantly complaining.

The Son of Heaven also walked among the ministers with great interest, and from time to time picked up a test paper to admire. This time, it was really too hasty, so a lot of strategies were written really strangely, for example, a certain candidate surnamed Chen felt that the Son of Heaven was so big, and it was normal for wars and disputes to be normal, and the Tang Empire only needed to take benevolence and righteousness as an example, and it would definitely be able to influence the world, so that Yidi would regret it and bow to Yunyun.

Even the old lady Sun, who has always believed in benevolence and righteousness to govern the country, was scorched by this policy, and lay a lot of grass. Not to mention other officials, who were sneering while watching, anyway, the sudden change of the topics of the palace examination this time made the overall quality of the strategy drop significantly.

A lot of people are talking nonsense, in short, not to mention those ministers of civil and military affairs, even if Fang Cai is still complacent that he can come up with such a good idea in a few days, it is a pain in the egg.

Looking at those specious and incomprehensible theories, it is like arguing that there is no worst, only worse.

And some ministers were there to be neither yin nor yang, vaguely accusing the Son of Heaven of changing the palace test, which would cause such an end, and some people even chanted a crooked and crooked strategy there, which caused bursts of low laughter.

#####

The Son of Heaven's face became more and more gloomy, and at this time, he heard a soft sound not far away. With a turn of his eyes, he looked into the distance, where Mrs. Sun was standing in front of an examiner, picking up a test paper with a solemn expression.

This also made the Son of Heaven curious, and he walked slowly towards that side, and all the ministers avoided it, but there were still a few courtiers who were too focused on staring at the test paper and did not notice the arrival of the Son of Heaven.

"What the court and the law can't do, let wealth do, can reap surprising results...... In the end, His Majesty Taizong intended to open border trade to lure him, so that my Tang Dynasty and Zhangxiong could be at peace for decades. A minister muttered one of the sentences, and after a slight hesitation, he said thoughtfully.

"Hey, what a fresh idea, the old man is really unheard of. But it seems to make perfect sense......"

"Old lady Sun, can you let me take a look at ......" After standing aside and listening to a few words, the Son of Heaven, who couldn't help but be moved, hurriedly spoke.

Looking at the copied test paper in his hand, he carefully admired it for a long time, and there were a few places in it that made the Son of Heaven understand, although the coherence of the inactive argument was more like a classic excerpt from a sentence, but it was really thought-provoking.

"It's really human for this son to have such a vision." Old lady Sun stroked her beard and said on the side. "Among the rest of the sons, although there are also subtle strategies, but there are many suspicions of falling into clichés."
