Prosperous advisors

Chapter 638: A Dead Scholar (3)
Rong Xuan smiled curiously: "Mu Xiang, today is..."

Mu Qingyi raised her eyes and smiled, "I don't believe the lord doesn't know what happened." Of course Rong Xuan knew what happened, and he could only smile when he heard what Mu Qingyi said. sat down.Jiang Taifu and others who followed behind him also arrived.Although Jiang Taifu is no longer in court, he can be said to be the highest-ranking civil servant.Even the Prime Minister Mu Qingyi, in terms of rank alone, although he is the same as the Taifu, is actually half a chip lower than him.And Taixue's Xuezheng represents the meaning of the group of people with the highest knowledge in the world.As for Rong Xuan and King Qi, they represent the authority of the Western Yue royal family.Such a combination can be said to have given Jia Jing enough face.But at the same time, once lost, Jia Jing must die.

Mu Qingyi smiled lightly and said, "For the sake of fairness, let Master Xuezheng and Old Madam Fu discuss the matter of setting the question."

Jiang Taifu was not polite, but looked at Jia Jing who seemed restless and shook his head with some regret.He has seen this kind of people a lot, but it is really rare to see such a bold person like Jia Jing, or such a stupid person.

The two old men discussed for a while, and then you asked the question.Jiang Taifu picked up a pen and wrote two large characters on the paper, "Water Control".

Seeing the title, Jia Jing's face was blank.But Yun Yuefeng lowered his head and thought for a while before starting to grind the ink.Seeing Yun Yuefeng start to make a move, Jia Jing naturally didn't want to lag behind, and started grinding ink in a hurry.But anyone with a discerning eye could see that he didn't have the slightest low in his heart.

Jiang Taifu and Xuezheng actually found it difficult to answer this question.The word water control is simple, but even veteran officials who have been officials for decades dare not say that water control can be cured well, let alone these candidates who have not even entered the gate of the court.

The two began to answer questions, but the waiting time in between was a bit boring.But none of the candidates who were watching around left, they all stood outside the Gong Yuan waiting for the result of this competition.

In a row of chairs at the entrance of the Gongyuan, all the most powerful and prestigious dignitaries and senior officials of the dynasty were sitting.Rong Xuan held the teacup and leaned on the chair, looked at Mu Qingyi with a half-smile and said, "Mu Xiang, for the sake of two candidates, is it necessary to make such a big deal?"

Mu Qingyi looked leisurely, and said with a faint smile: "I am very optimistic about that Yun Yuefeng. Although he is confident that he will be able to enter high school in three years, time is short. Why waste three years if we have the opportunity?"

Rong Xuan took a look at Yun Yuefeng who was sitting at the table writing fluently, nodded and said, "It looks pretty good, but it's too young. I'm afraid it won't be useful."

"Prince Zhuang's words are wrong." On the other side, Jiang Taifu stroked his beard with a smile and said, "If you are ambitious, you are not old. I am afraid that the world is dominated by young people now."

Although it was known as "Fifty Young Scholars" in ancient times, how many can really be late bloomers?Those who can really make some achievements, even if they don't become famous as teenagers, at least they should be in their prime.For those who have reached the age of 50, in fact, most of them can reach the third-rank official in their lifetime, which is considered good.

Look at the people in the court today, the people who were replaced quietly after being killed by the new emperor.Needless to say, Prime Minister Mu Qingyi, twenty is not enough.Those who are reused now, Nangong Yi, Buyutang, Jiang Yu, Dongfang Xu, etc., are younger than each other.

Jiang Taifu has been thinking about the emperor's thoughts all his life, and these days he has somewhat understood His Majesty's thoughts.Your Majesty is young and energetic, I'm afraid it's because they dislike the old men who are in the way, and want to use a large number of newcomers.Calculated in this way, he took the first step to step down and get the honor of the Taifu, and then pushed out his most promising grandson, His Majesty is really good to the Jiang family.

Rong Xuan was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed, "What the Tutor said is very true."

The gate of the Gong Yuan was surrounded by candidates for liberal arts, but the candidates for martial arts did not have this interest. Most of them came to watch the play when they got bored after reading their rankings.Since ancient times, civil and martial arts have been neglected, so the future military generals naturally don't pay much attention to what the sour Confucians are making trouble with.

Huo Yuanfang stood under the red list with a dull expression, staring at the three big characters Huo Yuanfang written on the third line of the first sheet, in a daze.

Originally, he really had no hope. After all, it can be regarded as a legend that he could still have a good life after offending the emperor from ancient times to the present.Huo Yuanfang naturally didn't think he would have such good luck.Coming here today is just to watch the list with Liang Xiuwu and Luo Yun.Who knew that the first thing he saw was himself.

"Brother Huo... Congratulations!"

"Ah?!" Huo Yuanfang still couldn't recover, "So... I don't have to guard the city gate anymore?" Luo Yun lowered his head and laughed sullenly: "Brother Huo, it's probably because His Majesty is joking with you. Your Majesty Even as the king of a country, with such high martial arts, he must not be a narrow-minded person."

"Really?" Why didn't he feel like it.Although Huo Yuanfang was a bit careless, he had to say that his senses were still very keen, otherwise he wouldn't be able to live in such a place where bandits are rampant.

"It must be!" The two said in unison, staring fiercely at Huo Yuanfang.Dare to say that His Majesty is narrow-minded, you don't want to live anymore!
"Then... right." Huo Yuanfang nodded and admitted, anyway, he didn't feel like it.But even if he goes to high school, the best thing is to be assigned to the barracks as a small lieutenant, and he shouldn't have to see this majesty again for ten or eight years, and he shouldn't have to worry about it.

Looking at the list again, Liang Xiuwu and Luo Yun are also in high school, but the lower rankings are not bad.The three of them congratulated each other before heading towards the place where the Gong Yuan was watching the excitement.From a distance, he could see Mu Qingyi who was sitting at the gate talking and laughing with Rong Xuan and others.

Huo Yuanfang couldn't help but smacked his lips and said, "Why didn't I realize that last time, that delicate girl would be the prime minister. It's really..."

Liang Xiuwu next to him angrily poked him with his arm, "Brother Huo, sooner or later, you will be unlucky with this mouth!"

Huo Yuanfang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, I just want to say, this girl...Mu Xiang is really not simple."

"That's true." Luo Yun said with a smile: "Mu Xiang looks like he might not be in his twenties, but sitting among those princes and veterans, he doesn't lose his face at all. It's a pity that she is a girl, if she is a man , I’m afraid it’s even more remarkable.”

Huo Yuanfang waved his hand and said: "Brother Luo, I don't like to hear these words. What's wrong with my daughter? Isn't my daughter still a great prime minister? I heard that group of chattering and sour scholars really care about it. Good skill. The most important thing is that this Prime Minister Mu is not sour or long-winded."

People who practice martial arts have never read any books, even those who have read some military books from them will have a splitting headache when they hear it.Therefore, seeing a woman like Mu Qingyi who, although she is a woman, is not weak, neither sarcastic nor talkative, makes her even more satisfied.Anyway, women are civil servants, and it is not warriors like them who are humiliated by women.Let's discuss the dignity of men when a female general comes out someday.
