please make me king

Chapter 702 Alliance
Although the Lantern Festival was hasty this time, it was quite distinctive.

Dazzling fireworks blooming in the night sky, Kongming lanterns flying all over the sky, large Kongming lanterns floating in mid-air tied by ropes, and lights of various colors hanging on both sides of the street.

There are also the sound of small merchants and vendors hawking, the sound of firecrackers being lighted by naughty children and children, and the noise of crowds of people.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of sensuality, and there was joy everywhere in the sky and on the earth.

This three-dimensional layout is even more surprising to the well-informed scribes than the previous ones that only made a fuss on the ground.

Therefore, while admiring the lanterns, everyone discussed some poems and articles, which seemed a bit elegant.

Immediately the interest came, Zhang Shun couldn't help laughing and said: "I also got something occasionally today, please correct me."

"King Shun is a talented poet, I'll be all ears!" Before Liu Rushi caught the knife, Zhang Shun had a chance to shine, and everyone had confidence in him.

It's just that Zhang Shun occasionally felt something this time, and he didn't have much confidence in what he wrote.

He couldn't help but get vaccinated first and said: "Where, where! Even a master like Li Du is not a classic handed down from generation to generation, let alone a person whose bottle is not half full?"

"Don't be too modest. If King Shun is the one whose bottle is not half full, then what are we? Come on quickly, let me wait and hear!" Everyone booed.

Then Li Xiang and Liu Ru should not look at each other in blank dismay, the two "ghost writers" haven't made a move yet, how come you have it?
The two glanced at each other suspiciously, and when they realized that the other's eyes were also full of doubts, they realized that their master was going to make a show again.

Both of them couldn't help but want to hide their faces first, in case they don't see anyone in the future.

Unexpectedly, I heard Zhang Shun chanting in a somewhat deep voice: "When the lamps on the ground are lit, the stars in the sky are shining; when the lamps on the ground are lifted into the sky, the sun and the moon are dimmed!"

"If there are immortals in the Nine Heavens, you should regret going to the Nine Heavens! If the landscape is like this, how can it be in the world?"

Everyone was silent for a while, and suddenly someone shouted "OK"!Everyone was like waking up from a dream, and they quickly echoed.

"What's so good about it?" Zhang Shun asked with a smile.

Someone said: "Fortunately, the phrase 'when the ground lamp rises, the sun and the moon will dim'".Someone said: "Fortunately, the saying 'If there are immortals in the Nine Heavens, you should regret going to the Nine Heavens'."

They are all thousand-year-old foxes and ten-thousand-year goblins. If everyone can't understand Zhang Shun's meaning, they might as well smash them to death with a piece of tofu and pull them down.

Even Li Xiang and Liu Rushi were stunned for a long time, and they couldn't help whispering: "Master really wrote a good poem this time!"

It turned out that when everyone heard "the lights on the ground are twinkling, the stars in the sky are shining", they just shook their heads secretly.

But when everyone heard that "the ground lamp rises into the sky, the sun and the moon are dimmed", they feel that something is wrong.

And then to "If there are immortals in the nine heavens, you should repent and ascend to the nine heavens! If the landscape is like this, why does it seem to be in the world", it is already very fruitless.

Obviously, the lamp refers to the rebel army, and the star refers to the imperial court.The ground lamp rose into the sky, and its power flourished, so the Ming court, which represented the sun and the moon, could only be dimmed.

And "Nine Heavens" is a stroke of genius, referring to both the sky and the palace ban.Then the immortals in the nine heavens obviously refer to the emperors in the palace.

The sentence "If the landscape is like this, why does it seem to be in the world" is even more reminiscent of the sentence "May I die and live in the Wang family" said by Liu Ziluan, the eighth son of Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty before his death.

After hearing this, three people couldn't help but their expressions moved, and they went forward to worship: "King Shun has the ambition to rise to the clouds, and he is willing to help the feathers fly to the sky. It is not necessary to be too cold in the heights, but I hope there will be a legacy in the history!"

Zhang Shun took a closer look and found that they were three young talents, quite unfamiliar.

Then why doesn't Lu Weiqi know what he means?He hurriedly stepped forward and introduced: "These three people are named 'Yigu Sancai', and they are Wen Tingjian, named Boyong; Zhang Shifan, named Shengzhi; Shi Zuo, named Jinggong!"

Oh? It turns out that the ruler chooses the ministers, and the ministers also choose the ruler. Although many people were invited to come, they are still waiting and watching.It is estimated that these three people were moved by their ambitions just now, so they stepped forward to become officials.

Zhang Shun's heart brightened, and he couldn't help boasting: "It turns out that there are three young talents, and now they are willing to serve in the volunteer army, what a great honor!"

"The three of you will follow me around and do paperwork for a while. If there is a shortage in the state and county, it will not be too late!"

Follow Zhang Shun to do paperwork, that is to be cultivated as a confidant.If you go back to the prefectures and counties, you will be selected according to the standards of the chief officials of the frontier and the elders of the central cabinet.

Not to mention what will happen in the future, but it is enough to move people's hearts just by releasing it to the prefectures and counties.

What do you do in the ten-year cold window, half for the common people and half for the official!
According to their knowledge, it may take ten or twenty years before they can be promoted to Jinshi, and then they will be released as officials, and they don't know that it will be the year of the monkey.

This is indeed "the golden belt of murder and arson, and the repair of bridges and roads without corpses"!
For a moment, all the students' eyes were bright, and they didn't care about the crime of beheading the nine clans. They either recited poems or wrote Fu, trying their best to show their talents.

Then Lu Weiqi also had to smile, and introduced Zhang Shun one by one with dry mouth.

Zhang Shun successively recruited talents: Yao Gengtang, Yang Ying, Ding Taiji, Yang Lian, Yang Shiying, Liu Shaozhou, Shi Yue, Tian Naishi, Li Minnan, Zhang Jianheng, Zhang Zushu, Wu Zhiping, Liu Jie, Xu Qi and more than [-] people .

All the guests and hostesses were happy for a while, and the Lantern Festival was a great success.

Only Lu Weiqi complained angrily: "It's a pity that Meng Huali and Zhang Baochu have passed away, otherwise there will be more scholars from all over the world!"

"It's even more hateful that Lingbao Xu's family is half-faced and refuses to sell it to me. No one in the family is willing to come."

Thinking of this, Lu Weiqi was still a little bit aggrieved.

It's no wonder that Lu Weiqi has such a demeanor, the Lingbao Xu family flourished in the early and middle Ming Dynasty.His family Xu Jin and his three sons were all officials up to the Shangshu of the Ming Dynasty.

"Four Books of Father and Son" is rare in ancient and modern times.Even Lu Weiqi, who has become the representative of the Confucian scholars in Henan Province, dare not speak out in front of people.

Of course, Lu Weiqi seemed to be complaining, but he really paid for it.It has the demeanor of "Versailles" in later generations.

Where did Zhang Shun not know?He couldn't help waving his hands, and said with a smile: "The law of heaven reincarnates, and there are constant rises and falls. Although Xu's reputation is very high, it's just that the talents are dying now, and they are no longer as prosperous as before. What is it worth?"

"Today, it is all thanks to the power of Duke Lu that we have recruited all the heroes from Henan to vote. If not, even if I seize the land of Yuzhou, I'm afraid I can only sigh with regret and abandon it in pain!"

"It's too good, it's too good!" Although this is just a transaction between the two parties, it is actually a civil and military alliance between the two parties.

Na Lu Weiqi didn't say anything, but he was quite proud in his heart.

In the past, when Xun Yu saw Cao Cao, all the counselors from Yingchuan returned to Wei; now, when I, Lu Weiqi, see King Shun, all the literati in Henan are obedient, and the common people are almost the same!
