I am the prince in the heavens

Chapter 23 Imperial Examination
A few days later, the imperial examination that countless people were looking forward to was held as scheduled.
For many students studying hard in the cold window, this imperial examination is like the gate of heaven in the eyes of warriors. As long as they pass through it, they can jump over the dragon gate with a carp, soar to the sky, soar up to [-] li, become Tian Shelang in the morning, and ascend to the Tianzitang in the evening!
Liyang has such a large territory and a large population, so there are as many as thousands of people who participated in the test this time. Looking around, there are all kinds of people, from teenagers to fifties, except that there are no women. Among them, there are only a hundred people who can pass the exam. It can be seen that the cruelty of the competition is far beyond the comparison of the college entrance examination in the previous life.

Even Zhao Kai did not dare to say that he could become one of these 100 people before he read the test questions. With the recommendation letter given by Yuan Benxi, Zhao Kai got his wish and participated in this grand scene of a thousand sails. , but Zhao Kai didn't come to take the No. [-] Scholar exam, he came to experience life, so Zhao Kai didn't come until the registration was almost over.

"This examinee, did you bring this little thing?"

The invigilator couldn't help being a little puzzled after checking the things that Zhao Kai carried with him. He didn't expect Zhao Kai, a candidate, to just bring a water bottle and just go in so leisurely.

You must know that the general examination lasts for three days. During these three days, all the candidates will be allocated a small single room. They will eat, drink and drink in these three days. They cannot go out without handing in the papers. You have to bring your own food and other things to eat, so many candidates have big bags and small bags, which also brings a lot of workload to the invigilators.

Of course, few candidates like this would dare to cheat. After all, if they were caught, they would be killed. Yong Huinian's officialdom was controlled by Zhang Julu, so it was relatively clear.

"My lord, you are laughing. My family was poor since I was young, and I really don't have any extra luggage." I can't say that I just came to see if it was difficult. If it is too difficult, I will leave.

"Okay, go in, if you have any difficulties, you can ask the examiner for help,"

"Thank you, my lord,"

Zhao Kai walked into the examination room with leisurely steps, humming a song, those who didn't know thought he was here to inspect the examination room!

This imperial examination is just like the college entrance examination in the previous life. During the college entrance examination, I was still very nervous, but this time my mood was different. Without that nervous feeling, Zhao Kai was full of thoughts, but he didn't expect that he would be caught in a hurry immediately. The voice was interrupted, and after a while, I saw several officers and soldiers running over with stretchers. After inquiring, I found out that some candidates passed out because of being too nervous. The key point is that this is already the fifth one. Uh, and this This kind of operation, I haven't read the topic yet, so I've discounted so much!
Seeing someone fainted, Zhao Kai naturally went over to lend a hand and helped carry the person onto the stretcher.

"Examinee, are you here for the exam or for fun? Go back to your test center quickly," the examiners couldn't stand it any longer. Is there anyone who will come here and take the exam?That's the imperial examination!
Zhao Kai smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I'll go over right away, you guys are busy!"

I found my own test site, it was a small room with the door open, a small table with pens, ink, paper and inkstones on it, a small bed, and a bucket next to it, probably for rice paddies, outside the door There are also officers and soldiers patrolling non-stop, as simple as going to jail.

After waiting for a long time, the examiner distributed the test questions. Zhao Kai thought that the questions for candidates in the imperial examination would be very long, but unexpectedly there were only two words on it:

spring and autumn!

"This question is written with a level!" Zhao Kai couldn't help giving the person who wrote the question a thumbs up. There are a lot of things that can be written in just two words. Here, the review questions are not easy to review!

More importantly, Zhao Kai knows this question, so there is no need to hand in a blank paper now!Spring and Autumn, can not be said to have two meanings, one is the literal meaning, spring goes and autumn comes, everything changes.The other one is the Spring and Autumn Period, when the nine kingdoms fought for hegemony.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Kai wrote three words on the paper without hesitation:

"Eight Kingdoms"

The rise and fall of the world, the common people suffer, only hope that the heroes will rule the Kyushu, the Spring and Autumn Nine Kingdoms, Liyang will destroy eight of them alone, and the eight kingdoms will be destroyed. It is not a disadvantage for soldiers, and a bad war. The disadvantage lies in the harmony of people~~~~
Zhao Kai once remembered that he had recited an ancient article called "Theory of the Six Kingdoms" before, and it was just a good time to use it. Citing allusions is also one of the skills of composition, but Zhao Kai quoted a little more. Next, Zhao Kai Kai began to describe how Liyang was able to destroy the other eight countries step by step from a small border country to become the final winner among the nine countries in the Spring and Autumn Period with vivid and gorgeous sentences. At the same time, he also compared the strengths of the countries before the war, and analyzed the reality of the defeat of other countries. Reasons, the focus falls to Western Chu, and the reasons for the Kingdom of Western Chu are analyzed in detail.

Although there are many soldiers in Western Chu, the king is benevolent, and there is a victorious general like Ye Baikui under his banner, but the most important thing in the war is the comprehensive national strength. The national strength is far superior to that of Western Chu, and the successive victories have brought the morale of Liyang's army to an unprecedented level, which cannot be reversed by manpower. The last thing Western Chu should do is to sit on the mountain when the Spring and Autumn National War begins Watch the tigers fight, now reap the benefits of the fisherman, and let Liyang grow stronger.

After analyzing these, Zhao Kai explained the significance of Liyang's dominance of the world.

The destruction of the Eight Kingdoms by Liyang has indeed brought a huge disaster to the people of the world. Countless people have been displaced. This is indeed inseparable from Liyang. , the number of people who die in battle every year has never been less, only the great unification can achieve real peace,
~~~ The car is on the same track, the book is the same text, only by gathering strength can we not be invaded by foreigners, and the shame of Dafeng is still vivid in our eyes~~~
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Kai talked about the current state of Liyang. In layman's terms, although Liyang now dominates the Central Plains, it is still in a situation of internal and external troubles. Restoration of the country is imminent, and several great vassal kings all hold a large army in their hands and control a piece of land. The world that has finally been calmed down may still be at risk of war again at any time.

Just raising a problem is not enough, Zhao Kai immediately proposed a solution,
First is Bei Mang, which is undoubtedly the biggest threat to the Liyang Dynasty. Fortunately, there is Xu Xiao in the court, and Zhao Kai also made great achievements in defeating Xu Xiao. down.

Then there is the problem of the survivors of the Eight Kingdoms. It is not difficult to solve this problem. There are two ways. One is to implement benevolent government, step by step, and let them live a peaceful life. After a few generations, no one will remember their homeland.Another method is to attack them first, find a way to make them jump out, and then succeed in the first battle. This method is more cruel and is not recommended.

Next is the question of several great feudal lords, this is the most headache for the royal families of all dynasties, but this is not difficult for Zhao Kai, who has a cultural background of 5000 years, I saw Zhao Kai slowly write in his pen:
In ancient times, the princes were only a hundred miles away, and the shape of the strong and the weak was easy to control.Today's feudal lords may be tens of cities and thousands of miles away. If they are slow, they will be arrogant and extravagant, and they will easily become chaotic. If they are urgent, they will hinder the strong and join forces to rebel against the capital; And when the heirs are established, although the rest are flesh and blood, there is no ruler and land, so the way of benevolence and filial piety will not be proclaimed.May your majesty order the princes to be kind to the disciples and brothers, and to be the prince of the land, so that everyone will be happy; with virtue, the country will be divided, and it will not be weakened but slightly weakened...
This is the famous Tweet Order, the number one conspiracy in the ages, Zhao Kai believes that once this order comes out, it will definitely shock everyone, weaken the vassal king, and make the soldiers bloodless, but it is easy to say, but difficult to do, maybe it will happen Caused the rebellion, Zhao Kai even felt that the emperor Liyang might not have the courage to do this, but this has nothing to do with him, he just said it.

After writing these, the word count of this article is nearly [-] words, which has completely surpassed the essays of ordinary candidates, and it can be handed in. However, after Zhao Kai pondered, he picked up the pen again and slowly wrote:

Since ancient times, the world has known that it is difficult to conquer the country, but they do not know that it is even more difficult to defend the country. Looking at the ancient dynasties, all of them ended in hundreds of years.

I would like the law of Liyang to be established for the living and the people, not to be tolerated because of nobility, not to be deprived because of poverty, to have no unjust injustice, no imposed crime, to follow the law like a sword, to destroy ghosts and demons, and not to ask for gods!
May the people of Liyang have the truth to follow, know propriety and righteousness, keep benevolence, do not judge success or failure by money, do not succumb to power, sympathize with the weak, hate injustice, stand firm in times of crisis, and always reflect on themselves when no one is around!
May there be no more oppression and bondage in this world, and everyone who is born in this world can have the right to live, the right to freedom, and the right to happiness!

May one day, all people are born equal, no distinction between high and low, protect life and pursue light!

This is what I want.Although there are thousands of twists and turns, we are not afraid to move forward!
"Li Chungang has two big ambitions. My four big ambitions are no worse than him."

Satisfied, Zhao Kai put down the pen in his hand, and wrote everything he should and wanted to write, naturally he didn't want to stay in this crappy place anymore.

"My lord, I want to hand in the paper!"
