Chapter 97 Knowing the Wind and the Moon in Luoyang and Achieving the Imperial Army and Government (5)
(The third update, today's second chapter, shouldn't be too late?) )
When the Guiyi army returned to Guazhou, Li Congjing thought that the two would set off together, but who knew that the former just sent the latter out of the city, and then returned to his small courtyard.
It was so unexpected that when Li Congjing bumped into Jianzi in the mansion again, he thought that they had encountered difficulties on the road and turned back halfway. After thinking about it, I felt that it was impossible, after all, the Guiyi Army did not go back alone.
Although Li Congjing had no plans to use troops in Helong for the time being, when the Guiyi Army returned to the west, he still sent a caravan from the Military Intelligence Department to escort him. Of course, the military intelligence caravan escorting the two Guiyi troops will leave a group of people to take root in Helong, and take this opportunity to start arranging chess pieces in Helong.
There is a strong martial arts swordsman living in the mansion, and the owner of the mansion is Li Congjing, he only has a guard in the mansion, and the others don't care at all, so he can tolerate the sword, if he changes to someone else, things will not be so easy.
Jianzi also seems to enjoy such a state of not being cared about by Li Congjing, he is a person with a light temperament, and he is already happy to be able to walk freely in the house.
This made Li Congjing very strange about Jianzi's previous experience, such a person is either really idle and elegant, staying in the Qin Wangfu is no different from staying in other places, and after a long time, he will naturally leave; There is another possibility, there is naturally a reason for not wanting to go back, no matter what this reason is, the sword is evading.
Very people can't speculate with common sense, Li Congjing can be sure that Jianzi has no malicious intent, which is enough, since the two have some old feelings, this time they helped the court bring back the Guiyi Army, and let him continue to eat and drink in the palace, Li Congjing still doesn't care.
There is another thing, Li Congjing doesn't care.
An Chongrong and Zhao Hongyin, as the first batch of students of the Academy of Martial Arts and the two most successful, were invited to the opening ceremony of the Academy to inspire the younger generations.
When Zhao Hongyin entered Beijing, he brought his family with him, and he would teach in the Yanwu Academy for a period of time in the future, so he needed to settle down in Luoyang. Li Congjing learned from this that Zhao Hongyin had a son this year.
As a qualified coach who cares about the trilogy, Li Congjing couldn't help but ask a few more words, and when he asked what name Zhao Hongyin gave his son, Zhao Hongyin's answer shocked Li Congjing.
Because Zhao Hongyin said three words: "Zhao Kuangyin!" ”
What Li Congjing cares about is the current autumn examination and the enrollment situation of the Performing Arts Academy.
In the autumn season, there were 112 scholars in the imperial court, compared with the previous years, when the imperial court only took about 20 scholars each time, this number is quite a lot, but if you look at it from a distance, it is definitely not much. A lot of reasons are that the new policy of the imperial court has been successful, and the reason why there is not much is that even if the imperial court has increased its efforts to recruit soldiers, it has always held the bottom line of preferring shortage to excess.
There are many things worth mentioning in this imperial examination, for example, although there are not as many subjects as more than 50 subjects in the Tang Dynasty: Xiucai, Ming Jing, Junshi, Jinshi, Ming Law, Ming Zi, Ming Calculation, and History, but new subjects such as water conservancy, fortification, and economy have been added, which are not available in the previous imperial examinations.
Although there are not many scholars in these subjects, the guidance of the imperial court is very strong, and the officials of the three provinces and six ministries have also compiled teaching materials, which is not difficult to learn, and the competitiveness is small, and the official positions given by the imperial court are not lower than those of other subjects, it is conceivable that there will be long-term development in the future, and these are the talents of the world that the empire needs.
"In this autumn examination, most of the scholars performed well, but the most amazing thing for the prime ministers was the two Sus." When Li Siyuan talked to Li Congjing about this, his expression was quite happy.
The more talents emerge in the imperial examination, it also means that the talents are better used by the empire, rather than to enrich the staff institutions of those who are temperate envoys and assassin history, and are privately occupied by them. With a big victory and rich results, Li Siyuan was naturally happy.
"Two Sus? But Su Yuqi and Su Fengji? ”
"It's the two of them, and I heard about it from Jing?"
"During the autumn examination, the reputation of the two of them is not small, and Erchen has heard of it a little." Li Congjing's words are true, so there are more people in the autumn exam, and before taking the exam, the scholars are inevitably able to communicate and learn from each other, in order to increase their knowledge and temper themselves.
"The two of them have amazing knowledge, and they also write good articles, I can't tell if the articles are good or bad, Feng Xiang and Li Xiang are good, and they will not be bad. I have also seen the two of them, and judging by their words and deeds, they make me very happy. Li Siyuan's smile did not decrease, "Su Fengji, refreshing and enterprising; Su Yujue, perseverance and simplicity, the wind of moderation, and the spirit of endeavor, are all my Datang talents! ”
Li Congjing smiled, Su Feng had never seen a guitar, but he had also heard that this person was free and capricious, but Su Yujing had met him by chance, he was solid in learning, humble and polite, and he could be elegant. However, among the people who participated in the imperial examination this time, the best looking one for him was Zhang Yilou, who was not named by Li Siyuan.
Since Zhang Yilou came to Luoyang, it is impossible not to visit Fei Gaozhang, and it is impossible not to come to see Li Congjing, in fact, Zhang Yilou lives in Fei Gaozhang's mansion.
Li Congjing knows Zhang Yilou very well, of course, he knows that this person's study follows Fei Gaozhang's style, and he has learned a lot of complex and worldly learning, and he is also resourceful, he is a rare talent, but he is not longer than the article, so he can't attract the attention of the court for a while, but it is also a normal thing. This kind of person is suitable for accumulation, compared with the "two Sus", who will go further in the future, it is not yet known.
From the fact that Zhang Yilou would rather abandon his foundation in Youzhou and go to Luoyang to participate in the imperial examination, it can be seen that this person's ambition is not small, and his heart is very comparable.
After talking about the autumn test, let's talk about the martial arts academy.
According to the imperial edict, the army that has fought and made meritorious contributions this year will increase the quota quota, the Fuzhou Army, the Fangzhou Army, and the Junzi are all in this list, especially the Fuzhou Army has the largest quota of 47 people. In addition, the number of border troops is also slightly larger, with a total of 83 people in one place. Li Congjing was presiding over this matter, and he naturally knew all the data, "Another thirty people were selected from the people." ”
It can be seen from Li Congjing's words that the quota of this year's martial arts academy has basically been divided among the units that have been named, and in fact, the other armies have only selected less than 70 people combined.
"Who is the best?" There are too many people, Li Siyuan can't take care of them, except for paying attention to the people who catch his attention, he can naturally only care about the best.
"The soldiers selected in the army, Zhou Xiaoquan is the most outstanding, and the sons and daughters selected by the people, there are two people whose qualifications are not weaker than those selected in the army, but also second only to Zhou Xiaoquan.
Li Congjing said: "Li Yanlin, the son of General Li, the fourth brother of Li Yanchao, the envoy of Lu Longjiedu. ”
"Li Yanlin, this kid, I know, didn't he fight with the nobles in front of the martial arts academy some time ago, it turned out to be the son of the old general, no wonder even the nobles couldn't help him." Li Siyuan heard the news from somewhere, "I heard that there were three fighters at that time, and a son Lang also came to participate in the selection of the Martial Arts Academy, what was the result?" ”
Li Congjing smiled bitterly, "This person's name is Shi Yanchao, brave and commendable, more than clever, and tenacious, but the foundation is too poor, and this time it can be regarded as barely squeezing into the list of those who have passed." ”
Even so, I still appreciate Shi Yanchao in my heart, after all, with the above three qualities, as long as he is diligent and studious during his studies, and he has better luck on the battlefield in the future, he will be able to get ahead easily. All in all, the plasticity is good.
The conversation between the father and son seems to be indifferent, but in fact it is deciding the fate of many people, and the fate of the chosen person is unaware of this, they are happy and relieved to learn that they are either high school or through the selection, and they are all ready to do a great job.
In Luoyang City, the three sons are swaggering through the market, this combination is quite weird, the leader walks in front, head high, arrogant, a look of Lao Tzu is the first in the world, you come to fight me, follow the latter, walk calmly and calmly, very much everyone's demeanor, the most bizarre is the last Erlang, his eyes look left and right, always give people a feeling that they are looking for prey at any time - or rather, his own temperament is like a fierce beast.
"Li Yanlin, are you really the biological brother of the Jiedu envoy?" Shi Yanchao asked.
Li Yanlin snorted, and looked honored, "Lu Longjiedu makes Li Yanchao, my eldest brother!" Speaking of which, you kid is using my eldest brother's name, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet! ”
Shi Yanchao said lightly: "It's just the same name, what's strange, it's not the same name and surname." Besides, how are you going to settle the score, you can beat me? ”
"Hey, I'm talking about you" Li Yanlin was about to theorize, but when she looked back at the bulging muscles on Shi Yanchao's body, she hesitated for a moment, and chose to give up.
Shi Chonggui doesn't mess with Shi Yanchao, but every time Li Yanlin says a word, he has to fight-for-tat, "What about the festival envoy?" My father-in-law is also a festival envoy! ”
"Shi Chonggui, I don't accept what you say, what is the festival envoy?" On the stone is valuable, Li Yanlin suddenly regained his majesty, "King Qin is also the envoy of the festival, and the envoy of the Heyang festival!" Can you say that King Qin is not? Besides, who is your father-in-law, can he compare with King Qin? No! After that, he was stunned, reacted to something, turned his head and asked, "By the way, who is your father-in-law?" ”
Shi Chonggui didn't speak, didn't answer Li Yanlin's question, and surprisingly didn't refute Li Yanlin's assertion.
The autumn rain came unexpectedly, and on the second-floor attic of a restaurant, there were two scholars standing with their hands in their hands, watching the rain silently.
The rain dripped down the eaves, and the thoughts of the two were not much different, but the scene they saw was not without differences.
Many years later, Su Yuqi, who entered the center of the court, would know what kind of yamen he belonged to, what kind of things he was doing, and what they meant to the empire. At that time, he knew that the Tiancheng New Deal he saw when he was young was just a drop in the bucket.
He also realized that the rise of an empire is a huge and complicated matter, and it is inextricably linked, and he knows that the rise of this empire is by no means accidental, but has paid great hardships and blood and sweat that are difficult to describe in the history books. At that time, he admired the father and son who presided over this new policy.
However, at this time, standing in the restaurant in Luoyang City, Su Yuqi had only one simple thought in his heart: to integrate into this great change and display his talents
The Rampage Army was officially established today, and as the first forbidden army of the empire in a sense, Li Siyuan and Li Congjing attended the establishment ceremony of the Rampage Army together.
Li Siyuan said to the more than 10,000 soldiers who were carefully selected from the empire and placed great expectations on him, "There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the empire, and among these hundreds of thousands of soldiers, I will select you and give you the best armaments and salaries of the empire, and I have thousands of expectations. Thousands of expectations may be too much, and you may not be able to remember, but today I will only give you one request: in the coming day, your military exploits must live up to the armaments, salaries and silver I have given, and live up to the expectations of me and the Tang Dynasty! ”
The military flag is quite different from the ordinary military flag of the world, under the word rampage, there is a pair of golden patterns, and the pattern is only two blades: a spear and a shield.
The military flag was awarded by Li Congjing, the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, to the commander of the Hengchong Army, Gao Xingzhou, when the flag was awarded, Li Congjing only said one sentence, "For the shield of the empire, to protect the monarch and the people, for the spear of the empire, to fight the minister!" ”
