Chapter 112: Secret Confrontation (1)
Xi Zhicai analyzed: "According to the previous information, these thirteen tribes have long had the heart of disobedience, and now the strength of the Jin Kingdom has been greatly damaged, and the vitality has not recovered, it is the right time!" There's no way they're going to give up on this great opportunity so easily! ”
Cao Cao nodded, "What Zhicai said is extremely true, but this Jin State Secret Envoy has always been an unstable factor!" Gongtai, immediately transfer a team of Jinyi guards to Zhang Yi and let him act cheaply! ”
"Yes!"
May 25th, this day is extremely important for the world's scholars, students who have passed the two-level preliminary examination will participate in the palace examination in the palace hall today!
This palace examination, Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai are the main exams, divided into two, the first is the written test, the examination of policy theory, that is, three major topics related to military, internal affairs, and diplomacy are respectively presented, and then the students participating in the examination are free to play according to this, and the second is much easier, that is, to discuss state affairs with Cao Cao and the cabinet ministers on the Golden Palace, and there is no limit to the things discussed.
The students waiting outside the main entrance of the palace were either very nervous, others very excited, and the small chattering echoed in the square.
As soon as the hour passed, the drums on the bell and drum tower of the palace sounded three times in a row. Immediately afterwards, the celebrant stood outside the main gate of the palace and sang a gamble: "The time is coming, and the students participating in the examination will enter!" ”
The students couldn't help but beat faster, calmed down their moods, and followed the celebrant into the stream.
When they saw the magnificent and majestic Fengtian Hall in front of them, everyone couldn't help but have the urge to look up.
The students entered the main hall, and the chief examiner Xi Zhi read out Cao Cao's holy decree, and then the palace examination began.
Three hours later, the bell rang, and all the students left the hall one after another.
"Brother Li, how is it?"
"Not so good! Brother Yang, what about you? ”
"Hehe, it's okay!"
"Brother Yang, what is your high theory?"
"Hehe, I can't talk about it! What I wrote was, On the Governance of a County! ”
At this time, another student came over: "Two brothers, let's go to the welcome building to relax!" ”
The student surnamed Li apologized and said, "Thank you Brother Zhang for your kindness!" But the day after tomorrow will be the day after tomorrow, I have to go back to prepare! ”
The student surnamed Zhang smiled and hugged his fists and said, "In this case, I won't bother Brother Li!" ”
The student surnamed Li confessed and left quickly.
The student surnamed Yang said with feeling: "Brother Li's father has too heavy expectations for Brother Li, hey, it's really difficult for Brother Li!" ”
The student surnamed Zhang nodded and said with a smile: "Why don't we go to the welcome building for a drink?" ”
The student surnamed Yang smiled happily: "I don't dare to ask for it!" ”
In the evening of the same day, Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu came to the Qianqing Palace with the two test papers, and at this time, Cao Cao was reading the routine reports submitted by various departments.
"Your Majesty, this is your students' test paper!" Xi Zhicai said.
Cao Cao put down the music in his hand and asked Cui Yingying, who was standing aside, to help, Cui Yingying took a test paper from Xun Yu's hand, Xun Yu said: "It's hard work!" ”
The two test papers were put on Cao Cao's case, and Cao Cao glanced at them and asked, "Have you all read them?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the ministers and Zhicai have read it roughly! The stack on the left is the best! Xun Yu replied.
Cao Cao nodded. "Very well, you guys have worked hard!"
The two hurriedly humbled themselves.
"Your Majesty, if nothing else, Weichen will retire!" Xun Yu arched his hand.
"Go down and rest!"
"Yes!" The two saluted and withdrew from the Qianqing Palace.
Cao Cao glanced at the two test papers on the desk, and couldn't help but say bitterly: "It seems that I didn't get a good night's sleep tonight!" ”
Seeing Cao Cao like this, Cui Ying couldn't help but feel a little funny, and then felt a little distressed.
That night, the welcome restaurant was more lively than ever, and all the students were enthusiastically discussing today's palace examination.
The core settlement of the thirteen tribes in the eastern part of the Jin Kingdom is thousands of miles away from Chang'an, and although it is late spring, the cold is still not gone.
Although the tribes of the thirteen tribes are scattered in almost the entire East Siberian region, the location of the big tent of the thirteen tribes is in the same place, more than 700 miles northeast of the Wolf Mountain Fortress, more than 600 miles east of Kukan City, located at the confluence of the two rivers, surrounded by mountains, is a natural fortress.
Although the thirteen tribes are thirteen tribes, but it is a kind of alliance similar to the tribal alliance, in which the dominant position is the bear clan, the wolf clan, and the tiger clan, which are the three largest of the thirteen tribes.
"It's been a few days in a row! I don't know what the leaders of the three major clans are up to? ”
A young man dressed in Hanfu said a little impetuously, in front of him stood another Han man with his back hand, they were in a tent, and this tent was located in the center of Raba, these two Han people were the envoys of the Great Wei who sent the thirteen tribes, and the leader was Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi turned around and asked, "Did you find any unusual movement from the people of the Jin Kingdom?" ”
The retinue shook his head, "Not yet, it's strange to say, the people of the thirteen tribes don't seem to have any contact with the envoy of the Jin Kingdom!" I really don't know what they're up to? ”
"Oh? From this point of view, the thirteen tribes are very hesitant! Zhang Yi pondered.
At this moment, an entourage came in from outside, hugged his fists and said, "The envoy, the secret envoy of the bear clan asks to see!" ”
"Secret Envoy?!"
Zhang Yi was stunned, "Please!" ”
Immediately, a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance dressed in animal skin entered the tent, although this person was stout, but his temperament had a bit of elegant taste.
"Jun Ba has seen the Great Wei envoy!" Someone came and made a Han salute.
Zhang Yi returned the salute and asked in surprise: "How do you understand the etiquette of our Han people?" ”
Jun Ba smiled: "I spent a few years in the Central Plains in my early years. When he said this, Junba couldn't help but show a look of yearning.
Seeing this, Zhang Yi had some calculations and smiled: "You are here, I believe there is something important, right?" ”
Jun Ba nodded, hugged his fists and said: "I know that your Great Wei Empire doesn't like to beat around the bush, and the men of our bear clan are also straight!" Presumably, the envoy doesn't know who I am in the bear clan! ”
Zhang Yi nodded, and Jun Ba took out an ancient monster body similar to a stone from his arms, and handed it to Zhang with both hands with a respectful face
Righteousness.
Zhang Yi couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the result, this very primitive object is actually not simple, it is not an ordinary stone piece, but a meteorite that fell from the sky, and the people of the thirteen tribes picked up the meteorite and carved their own totems and some other symbols, taking this as the highest power symbol of the tribe, in other words, this kind of meteorite depicting the totem is equivalent to the jade seal of the Great Wei Empire.
