back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 650 cynicism
"Hey, I still want to make a move. Don't you know that a gentleman will not use his hands?" The sharp-eyed Mr. Liu saw Wang Pang's movements, but he looked like he didn't want to be beaten. Four Jinshi is fine, I tell you, there are some people you can't afford to mess with! Do you know who I am? My uncle is a famous person in front of the emperor, a member of Zhongshushe! My father Liu Tong, Shouzhou Tongju. Hmph, he's just a newly promoted Jinshi, what an air!"

As soon as the words were finished, a person behind Mr. Liu agreed immediately: "Isn't it just a momentary success? I don't care how old I am, so I have the nerve to take the imperial examination?"

"Chen Shangfa, Liu Qi, enough of you!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, the person at the next table didn't like it, so he immediately got up and shouted.

"Hey, isn't this Chief Meng Yuan? Why is he so domineering when he wins a Jinshi?" Chen Shangfa said sarcastically, "It's just that he picked up a Jinshi, so he really thinks he's a famous person? Hmph, with Su Zi It's nothing more than opportunistic manipulation by those who are in the same boat!"

This person was Meng Qi, who was on good terms with Su Zhe. He often asked Su Zhe questions. "Chen Shangfa, you really don't know what is good or bad! You didn't even enter the imperial examination, and you ranked outside the ten thousand, and you wantonly slandered others? I'm ashamed to be in the same academy as you, ashamed to know you! And you, Liu Qi, Relying on your father's uncle being an official in the court, you dare to speak out to hurt others? It's fine if you are ignorant, what qualifications do you have to slander Enke Jinshi?"

"Well said! Yuanchang, if you wait until the next day, you can pass the roll call and parade through the streets on horseback. You should be ashamed of such a villain!"

Meng Qi's upright words instantly won the hearts of those around him.This is what people's hearts want, and it cannot be changed by your stubbornness.The imperial examination has always been regarded by the world as a way for the imperial court to select scholars, for literati to be on the right track, and to realize their ambitions.What's more, after the imperial list was posted, the Chunfeng Building, which was formed by the poet Meng Jiao of the former dynasty, became a gathering place for new scholars.At this moment, most of the people upstairs in Chunfeng are new scholars or acquaintances. Everyone is looking forward to the future. Suddenly someone comes in and tells you that the imperial examination is useless. What do you think?
What is even more hilarious is that one of these two people has never even entered the imperial examination, and the other has not even passed the Juren, so they dare to say that the imperial examination is useless. Isn't this playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong and an ax in front of Lu Ban!

Chen Shangfa saw that the upstairs of the Spring Breeze was full of scholars in Confucian robes and Confucian crowns, and knew that he had spoken a little rudely, and he had offended many people unintentionally.After he came to his senses, he almost regretted it.In fact, he was not aimless, the main reason was that he had been displeased with Meng Qi for a long time, seeing that he had been awarded a Jinshi and soon left his class, he was unhappy and wanted to add some trouble to him.It's just that his words were inappropriate, and he accidentally offended all the Xinke Scholars present. It is conceivable that after these people become officials in the future, it will be enough for him to wear a small shoe casually for him.As for the imperial examination?Hey, just talk to the Ministry of Rites directly, saying that this person slandered the imperial examinations, and Chen Shangfa has confessed in his life.

Liu Qi's face also flushed and turned blue, feeling that this place is not suitable for staying for a long time, so he quickly said: "Brother Chen, these people are so annoying, this wine is unbearable, why don't you find another one!"

Chen Shangfa wanted to put oil on the soles of his feet a long time ago, so he quickly said: "That's right, they are all like dogs, why do you care about them? Let me tell you, if there is this ten-rank official system, Dashun will be restless for a day, and this Jinshi is not considered a scholar." It's Jinshi..." He wanted to say something more, but Liu Qi pushed him down the stairs, and his voice gradually became inaudible: "...If you say we are villains, are they gentlemen? It's an insult to the word gentleman... "

After experiencing this farce, the Xinke Scholars who did not know each other in the Chunfeng Tower realized that they were surrounded by hidden "masters"!Among literati, etiquette is the most important, so many people began to cross their own wine tables and start toasting.Later, it gradually changed to "Chunfenglou Xinke Scholars Gathering"...

After three rounds of drinking and five flavors of food, these new Jinshi gradually became acquainted, and Meng Qi also came to the Wang family's table with a wine glass, and said respectfully: "I don't know, Yuan Chang is a fourth Jinshi from the Wang family." Here, what a neglect! This glass of water and wine should be done first as a respect!"

Wang Anshi didn't like drinking at first, but today he was admitted to the imperial examination, which was a great joy in his life, so he drank two more glasses.Seeing Meng Qi's courteous manners, all the Wang family stood up, holding wine glasses in their right hands, and drank a cup in return.

After gulping it down, Wang Anshi said, "Your Excellency is the No. 20 Jinshi of the new department, Meng Qi and Meng Yuanzhang?"

Meng Qi was a little "flattered" and said, "Yuan has such a bad name, but he is in the ears of Mr. Jiefu, ashamed!"

Wang Anshi said with a smile: "Although you and I are different in age, we are both Scholars in the same discipline. Why don't you sit down and have a chat?"

"I'll stick to what I want, I dare not ask for it!" Meng Qi sat down on the empty chair cautiously after being polite.

Wang Anguo said: "I have heard about the name of Chief Meng Yuan. Last time, Enke's number one student, Su Zhe and Su Ziyu were close friends, but they also gained some reputation."

Meng Qi laughed and said: "It's just a mere name, it's not worth mentioning. On the contrary, Mr. Jiefu once argued with Zhang Zai Zhang Shengren Guozijian, the number one scholar in the current discipline. Although there are words leaked out, it's really a pity that Mr. Jiefu's demeanor was not seen back then! The Holy Majesty also praised that, in terms of learning, apart from Zhang Shengren, Mr. Jiefu has a profound knowledge. After a long time, you need to learn more from Mr. Jiefu, and you should ask for advice!"

Wang Anli is a person who doesn't stick to etiquette, he laughed and said: "Master Yuan, your ranking is much higher than mine, I should be asking you for advice!"

"Don't dare to be. If you learn a lot, how can you be superior or inferior? It's just to learn from each other and confirm each other." Meng Qi didn't dare to go too far. He knew that the four in front of him were all talented people. He was lucky because he grasped it In Lu Chengqi's mind, he knew that what Lu Chengqi needed was someone who was outspoken, so his article in the palace examination bluntly stated the relationship between weapons and strength.Due to the rush of time, there was no time to discuss how to obtain knowledge in weapons, but this novel idea was approved by Wen Yanbo, and he ranked 23th from the bottom of the palace examination in one fell swoop, which is really a blockbuster.Lu Chengqi also noticed him a little bit, and felt that his words were simple and he was a useful talent.But if it rises too high, it is unfair to the rest.So Lu Chengqi dropped him to the [-]rd out of love for talents, lest he be too proud.Of course, there are twists and turns, which are not known to outsiders.

This is the case between people, classmates for many years, maybe just casual acquaintances, or even enemies with them.When strangers meet and chat for a few words, they become close friends.Meng Qi's sincerity made the six members of the Wang family have a good impression of him, and after a few visits, they forged a friendship of gentlemen.It can be said that drinking with a bosom friend is less than a thousand cups, and there are more than a few words without speculation. This is a good interpretation.
