Chapter 192

But Liu Ke abandoned the big fleet on the way.

Taking Dian Chu with them, the two returned to Qiongzhou City first in a small boat.

When we landed, it took a lot of effort to find the donkey cart.

He Kun is responsible for promoting the sharing economy, which is currently being implemented well in Qiongzhou.

There are no idle donkeys at all.

Still dig out the gold, specially bought a new donkey.

Liu Ke is addicted to driving, experiencing the new bonus brought by "Veteran Driver".

The speed of the car was more than [-]% faster than before.

He looked back at Dian Chu again.

"I'm rather curious. When I was fighting abroad in the past years, how did the court, Chinese and martial arts do things?"

"."

Dian Chu was puzzled, holding a jade radish, and said nothing.

The emperor was driving the chariot himself, sweating profusely, while the general sat behind him silently.

It is self-evident who is the boss.

Liu Ke continued driving in silence.

Well, this guy Dian Chu definitely falls into the category of "valuable".

Many noble ladies like this, and they will surely sell for a good price.

If you kick it down, you may experience the feeling of flying
Driving all the way back to Qiongzhou City, Liu Ke stopped for a while at the gate of the city.

"A Dian, follow me to worship."

Liu Ke first paid homage to the stele of worshiping the soul of heroes, and then walked to the other side, two empty steles, one large and one small.

The big one is yours, so there is no need to ask for it.

The small one belongs to Jia Wuji.

The corners of Liu Ke's eyes opened and closed slightly, with a hint of regret.

He lowered his head quietly, and gently stroked the surface of the empty tablet with his palm, feeling the cold touch.

"I took the children of the family and went out to sea."

"very successful."

"They made it, and I made it too."

"I think it will be a lot more peaceful."

"Now there is money and food, enough for the imperial court to make a northern expedition, and the people's lives are fairly stable."

"Mr. Jia has contributed a lot."

Liu Ke's fingertips slid across the wall of the stele, as if he could touch Jia Wuji's existence.

But there was only a hint of emptiness.

"This time I rushed back one step ahead, also to see those scholars who took the imperial examination."

"I want to take a look at these talented people in the world."

"Which one is comparable to the No. 60-year-old Mr. Jia?"

Liu Ke was still a little uneasy about Jia Wuji's death.

Up to now, the big man has lost two heavyweights, one is Yang Zhong and the other is Jia Wuji.

Yang Zhong had no choice but to die.

Jia Wuji's death was shocking and brilliant. Although there were countless birds with one arrow, it was indeed a pity.

Liu Ke sighed lightly.

"A Dian, come and pay respects to me again."

"Oh."

The ridge beside the road.

One old and one young are drinking and resting.

The young man seemed to be stuttering, he stuttered:
"Old, teacher, at the gate of the city, there is a tall, tall man worshiping the stele."

Jia Wuji waved his hands, secretly amused.

Some melon-eating people who don't understand, even when they worship the Heroic Soul Monument, they will also pay respects to his nameless empty monument.

This is Shengci!
He waved his hand and said calmly:
"In the future, there will be people worshiping you."

The boy continued:
"I, I heard that the caravan has already returned. Dad, it will be back soon."

Jia Wuji nodded:
"Well, I'm afraid I won't make less money in this sea trade business."

"You don't have to worry about the cost of food and clothing."

Jia Wuji was actually a little emotional.

Although he made insinuations, he proposed to cultivate health and rest.

But unexpectedly, the emperor could really listen.

And it also found another way to make profits from overseas.

If a small country conquers a big country, even if it can win the war, it will definitely increase taxes internally, and the people in the country will be in dire straits.

But Dahan is really not like this.

Although the domestic people do not say that their lives are particularly good, they are stable enough.

Perhaps the "Governance of the People" back then may have the possibility of realizing part of it.

Jia Wuji looked at the boy in front of him again.

This kid is quite talented and likes military affairs. Whenever he sees mountains and rivers, he will survey the terrain there and point out the military camp.

With the speed of the big man looting wealth, and the speed of the emperor's victorious advance.

It is estimated that when this kid grows up, there will be no battles to fight.

It seems that the ability to govern must also be improved.

"Today I will teach you what it means to govern the people."

I will live another 20 years or so, and I hope to see the day when this kid is the number one scholar in high school and becomes a marquis.

quack-

There was a cry of crows in the courtyard.

When you look up, you can see a crow feeding under the eaves.

The crow, because of the black feathers all over its body, was called "the black bird" at this time.

But it's only white.

There are too many auspicious signs found during the ecological survey.

Liu Ke looked up at the plaque next to the white crow.

"Hanlin Academy"

This is the place where the scholars in the imperial examination are placed.

In the past, after the scholars of the great Han Dynasty were selected, they would be placed in the Yutang Hall of Weiyang Palace to wait for the imperial edict.

While doing some chores, he waited for the emperor to conduct the palace examination.

But later the Great Han Dynasty moved south and the Yutang Hall disappeared, so the word "Hanlin" was taken from Yang Xiong's book "Xishu Ziyunting" and the Hanlin Academy was established.

Liu Ke asked Dian Chu to guard the door so as not to reveal his identity.

When he went in alone, he saw Wei Jishu leading a group of students, who were doing some chores.

"Master Wei."

Wei Jishu immediately put down the accounts in his hands, and fisted his hands.

The Imperial Academy is an important place, I want to see who broke in without notifying.

He stood up, strode forward, head held high.

When he saw someone coming, thin beads of sweat oozed from his forehead immediately, he cupped his hands slightly, and said:

"Your Majesty"

Liu Ke winked, and Wei Jishu changed his words slightly, but his attitude was not soft at all, and was extremely tough:
"Why did Mr. Bi enter the Imperial Academy without notifying him?!"

But what Wei Jishu said was not about getting in without reporting.

Many civil and military men are now in Zhibigang to greet them. It is not a problem for your emperor to sneak back without saying a word.

If you want to have a private visit via Weibo, or whatever you want to do, it doesn't matter.

But civil and military officials went to Zhibigang to greet them, and all the money and food were spent on the way!
"Master Wei, I know I was wrong."

Liu Ke hurriedly admitted his mistake first.

The fist of this ugly thing is not loose at all.

I was afraid that he would come up with three fists and then fall straight down.

This porcelain is not fun to touch!

A group of students took a second look, but soon continued to devote themselves to the affairs in hand.

No matter who Wei Jishu was, no matter he was facing Xiao Yuanchang or Lian Hansheng, he was extremely tough.

They are also extremely strict with these students. If someone is distracted by this kind of thing, they will definitely get scolded.

No one is not afraid.

A while ago, there was a scholar who argued with Wei Jishu for a few more words.

Wei Jishu came up and punched three times, then was pushed to the ground.

Foaming at the mouth, convulsions all over.

The scholar immediately cried and knelt on the ground begging Wei Jishu not to have any accidents.

It was the imperial doctor Xia Bugu who took action himself, and Wei Jishu woke up a medicine basket, which did not cause a catastrophe.

Liu Ke and Wei Jishu whispered for a while, learning a little about the history of the imperial examination.

Unexpectedly, a tough and upright person like Wei Jishu would even praise He Kun on purpose.

The imperial examination was not easy, so He Kun took the initiative to take over the job.

Xiao Yuanchang originally thought that He Kun wanted to make a profit from it, so he was ready to notify Hua Chengyu to arrest him with embroidered clothes.

Unexpectedly, there was no chaos in the environment of the examination room that He Kun was in charge of.

Moreover, He Kun also conducted a thorough investigation into possible private contacts between other officials and candidates.

Not only did he restrain himself, but he also did not allow other officials to enrich their own pockets and engage in malpractice for personal gain.

"This is He Kun."

Liu Ke couldn't help but click twice.

Among all the civil and military personnel in the court, He Kun's ability is not top-notch.

But this style of doing things really won his heart, and he is a person who can be a piggy bank for decades.

Then he asked Wei Jishu for a roster of scholars.

Matched the names and faces one by one, and observed them one by one.

The serious palace examination will give them time to prepare.

Sneaking in to observe, you can see the true character.

As for talent and learning ability, Liu Ke is not too worried.

He hung up.

The one with the best grades in the examination is called Hai Shuo.

Hai said that his face was pretty, but he looked a little haggard.

The facial features are ordinary and simple, revealing a trace of perseverance and calmness.

Her hair was tied in a messy bun, with a few strands of hair hanging down her forehead from time to time.

The clothes are simple, wearing a simple cloth shirt with ink stains on it, it looks a little faded and worn out, but it is neat and clean.

Just this image of being born in poverty made Liu Ke focus on observing.

[Name: Hai Shuo (Guo Shi)]

【Age: 24】

【Command: 27; Force: 51; Wisdom: 90; Administration: 94】

【Characteristics: Down-to-Earthness, Remonstrance, Observation, Integrity, Loyalty, Tradition, Green Pines and Green Cypresses】

There are currently only three national scholars of the Han Dynasty.

They are Yue Shaoqian, Xiao Yuanchang, and Xue Jia. The three are also the ceiling of the court, commanding troops, managing politics, and resourcefulness.

Hai said it was the fourth.

But obviously its abilities don't match well, indicating that there is a lot of room for growth.

And what excites Liu Ke is the two characteristics of "integrity" and "loyalty" mentioned by Hai.

It coincides with Yue Shaoqian.

He is also someone who can be trusted unconditionally.

As a future Zaifu reserve, there must be no problem.

However, it still needs more observation.

As for the second place in the test, it is a child of a noble family, named Zhen Fu.

It's different from the sea that can't be found when thrown into the crowd.

Zhen Fu has an aura of aura.

Even the first time Liu Ke entered the Imperial Academy, he saw Zhen Fu without communicating with Wei Jishu.

This guy is indeed extraordinary, with a tall and straight figure, a dignified face, and deep facial features.

There is a natural, confident and noble temperament.

The bun is well-groomed and the tips are shiny and shiny.

Her body was even more brocade embroidered gown, with elegant sleeves, densely covered with exquisite embroidery and gold and silver threads, which looked extraordinarily gorgeous in the sunlight cast by the window sill.

It embodies the trench from head to toe.

It's not the same as Gan Wenjin's kind of luxury, which looks like a nouveau riche at first glance.

It makes people feel that it should be done.

In the era when people were always judged by face to select a scholar, but with this attire, one could earn an official status without looking at face.

[Name: Zhen Fu (National Scholar)]

【Age: 28】

【Command: 63; Force: 66; Wisdom: 88; Administration: 96】

[Characteristics: richness, wealth, fortune, spending money like water]

Another national soldier? !

It is indeed an imperial examination that has been stagnant for many years.

It was just a hasty restart, and two national scholars were caught.

And this Zhen Fu is probably more comprehensive than Hai Shuo because of his background and ability.

It may be slightly worse in terms of characteristics.

But it is enough, and the ability has improved, what kind of bicycle is needed.

Liu Ke continued to match the roster with each scholar.

I didn't see any amazing national or state scholars, but there were a few sergeants.

And something strange caught his attention.

Although wearing a commoner clothes, doing literati's work, counting accounts.

But with a tall and burly figure, the thin clothes couldn't hide the muscular lines of his body at all.

The arm holding the brush is extraordinarily thick and powerful, and it even gives people the illusion that with a little force, the writing brush in his hand will break, and the desk case will collapse together.

Cliff is a macho.

[Name: Lu Fengfu (National Scholars)]

【Age: 29】

【Command: 63; Force: 108; Wisdom: 80; Administration: 81】

[Characteristics: Literary heart, scorpion tiger, dancing and writing]

Liu Ke:? ? ?
What is this unreasonable feeling of fragmentation?
Dian Chu's force value is only 103, and he has followed him all the way until now, and it is estimated that it has risen to about 105, which is almost the upper limit.

You, Lu Fengfu, came out of the mountain with a force value of 108? ?

What's even more unbelievable is that although your military strength is 108, although your command is a bit short, as a general, absolutely no one will say anything.

Joining the ranks, relying on force, in this troubled world, can easily rise to the top.

What happened to your imperial examination?

He also followed this group of civil servants to count the accounts in the Hanlin Academy.

"hiss"

Liu Ke couldn't help but gasp.

With a system in his body, he has always been able to make good use of people and use waste.

But this Lu Fengfu is really difficult to arrange.

And after a while of observation by Liu Ke.

Lu Fengfu was very careful when checking the accounts.

Free from any outside influence, even if the white crows under the eaves kept squawking, and other students occasionally whispered to each other, Lu Fengfu was always staring at the ledger in his hand intently.

Compared with the account book, his fingers are a bit thick, and turning pages does not seem to be so flexible.

But he is still methodical and meticulous to the extreme, and he is sure that he will not skip or miss pages.

And every number has been checked repeatedly.

Although it is not like Hai Shuo and Zhen Fu, he can directly calculate correctly in his head, and the efficiency is extremely high.

But Lu Fengfu still uses a brush to carefully outline symbols and mark the meaning of each number and record.

Even as more and more account books were counted, Lu Fengfu's eyes became brighter.

It was obvious that he really liked doing these things.

When it's time to eat, it's even more outrageous.

Although Lu Fengfu said he was reluctant to leave, he put down the account book and started to eat.

But he was holding the scroll in one hand, reading while eating.

After eating, when digesting food, I even found the most knowledgeable Hai Shuo and Zhen Fu, talked eloquently, and studied humbly.

Suddenly, Qianhu, an embroidered envoy, found Wei Jishu.

"My lord, when the officials and colleagues were conducting ecological surveys two days ago, they took a look at this year's harvest."

"The crops in all parts of Qiongzhou are mature."

"But due to the lack of manpower, I would like to ask the adults for some manpower."

This matter is usually asked to Xiao Yuanchang.

But Xiao Yuan often went to pick him up, and Xue Jia, He Kun, and Wei Jishu were the only civil servants who had the right to speak in the court.

Xue Jia is a sick child, coughing a lot, and the embroiderer is also afraid of being infected with a bad disease.

He Kun was too greedy to be liked by the embroidered clothes envoy.

We could only find Wei Jishu.

Wei Jishu glanced at Liu Ke. Now that the emperor is at home, the emperor has to make a decision on this matter.
