One Thought Feixian

Chapter 696 Discussing the Imperial Examination
From Lizhou to the capital of the Central Dynasty, there are thousands of mountains, thousands of rivers, hundreds of thousands of miles, dozens of state capitals, and the fastest horses. Even if you don't eat or drink, you may not be able to reach it in a month.

However, Jiang Yi already had a detailed plan in mind. The Dream Soul Sect was in Yuanzhou, and he was familiar with geography.

drive!drive!drive!
The sun was shining brightly, and it was warm and windy. On the wide official road, horseshoes were flying, and the dust was billowing like wolf smoke.

More than a dozen people, each with a good horse, galloped very fast, without stopping at all.

Naturally, Jiang Yi was in the lead, riding a majestic barren horse, and next to him were Jiang Qianye, Ying Ning, Wen Hongyu and others.

If there is only Jiang Yi alone, there is no need to worry about the distance. He will fly over directly, and riding a horse or taking a boat is far inferior to it.

However, Concubine Lan Ruofei was taken away by Emperor Qingtian and taken to the capital. She could not be rescued so easily. Even if she arrived in the capital immediately, she had to make long-term plans and plan slowly.

What's more, Jiang Yi has never been to Kyoto, and he is not familiar with the place, so he doesn't know what kind of situation it is.

That's why he decided to take everyone with him to see the style of the Central Dynasty. If he stayed in Lizhou, even if he reached a high level of cultivation, he would be a frog at the bottom of a well.

Soon, they arrived at the edge of the Lijiang River, and then along the Lijiang River, they came to Nanyang City Wharf.

When Jiang Yi first came to Nanyang City, he came by boat, so he is no stranger to this place.

At this moment, on the Lijiang River, only a few ships can be seen passing by, and a ship is moored on the pier.

This ship is huge, but it is not made of steel, but wooden, it seems to be a ship from the period of leaving the country.

In the Central Dynasty, steel ships were only used for military purposes, and as for civilian use, they could only be wooden ships.

However, this wooden boat is also very strong. Although its speed cannot be compared with that of steel ships, it can still ride the wind and waves, traveling thousands of miles a day and eight hundred miles at night.

On that boat, there are horsemen and special grooms to take care of them, but it needs money, which is expensive and ordinary people can't afford it.

Almost all of Jiang Yi and his group have been reborn, with sharp fists and feet, covered with true energy, they are not ordinary people, and they don't care about gold, silver and money.

They spent a full 1000 taels of silver and boarded the boat.

"Guest officers, please take your seat!" The boatman, seeing the big business coming, smiled and was extremely polite.

Although his martial arts is low, he only practiced some boxing skills, but on this boat, there seems to be a reborn master sitting in command, and ordinary people dare not act presumptuously.

"Feed these horses with high-quality fodder, and I will give you another reward." Xu Rong greeted.

"Everyone, don't worry, these are all high-quality wild specialties. I will definitely send someone to take care of them." The boatman replied, and five or six grooms came over immediately and pulled all the horses down.

Everyone entered the boat, found a seat and sat down.

At the moment, there are only a few people on this boat.

Jiang Yi took a glance and saw that there was nothing wrong with these people, so he looked away, meditated, and comprehended the four great magical powers of the ancient gods, the art of exhaling wind.

After a while, the boatman saw no one came to take the boat, so he set off.

"Dayong, Nanyang City has been poisoned by the desolate people, and there are no people there. If you sail the boat here to pick up the passengers, there won't be any business. I think it will cost some money to accommodate the government and sail the boat to the faraway city. Go to the capital."

"From the capital city? There is a large wharf there, and there are indeed many people, but there are also many merchant ships, and the competition is fierce. If it is divided up, how much business will there be?"

"You don't know that! The imperial court has already posted the list. One month later, on the first day of March, there will be the imperial examination. This is a literary event that attracts the attention of the world. All the students are rushing to the capital."

"People who leave the state can also participate in the imperial examination?"

"It's already written on the list that, in the whole world, is it the land of the king, the shore of the land, or the minister of the king, as long as he obtains the official document, no matter who he is, high or low, he can enter Beijing to take the exam."

"Ah? How many people can get government documents?"

"It's not about relying on black box operations and relationship operations. People with real talents and real learning may not be able to reach the capital even if they obtain government documents. From Lizhou to Kyoto, there are thousands of mountains and rivers. Strange... Even those who don't have government documents, who wouldn't want to take this opportunity to go to the capital to see the world?"

"Okay! If that's the case, then let's sail the boat to the capital! But there are some distinguished guests on this boat, and we must be honest when doing business. We'll finish this business first."

Sitting in the boat, Jiang Yi heard such a conversation.

This imperial examination was the system of selecting officials and appointing capable officials in ancient sage dynasties, and now it is inherited by the Central Dynasty.

This imperial examination is also an opportunity for a carp to turn into a dragon, and a sparrow to turn into a phoenix.

Ordinary people, without power or power, no matter how good their cultivation talent is, if they don’t have money to support consumption, they will not be able to achieve anything in cultivation. They can only study hard and study arts and science, hoping that one day they will be able to shine in the imperial examinations. That's the real way to stand out and change your fate against the sky.

After ten years of cold windows, no one asked, and became famous all over the world in one fell swoop!

This is the true portrayal of the imperial examination.

In the world, I don't know how many people study hard and spend their youth, but there are very few who can really make a big splash.

More people were overwhelmed by the tide, leaving behind one piece of sadness after another.

Daliguo also implemented imperial examinations, but it was far behind the Central Dynasty.

In Jiang Yi's heart, he also wanted to see how popular the imperial examinations in the Central Dynasty were!
"Time flies so fast. I didn't expect that three years have passed, and the Central Dynasty will conduct the imperial examination again."

"A grand event in the literary world, the pinnacle of pen skills! The Central Dynasty established the country with martial arts and ruled the country with literature. The depth of martial arts can be known at a glance, but the literary composition is not so easy to see."

"The top three in the imperial examination, number one, second, and Tanhua. In the last imperial examination, Tanhua was Ba Shaoqing, the second place was Wei Taicang, and the number one was Hong Weiyi!"

"Can Hong Weiyi also take the imperial examination?"

"Of course he didn't dare to reveal his identity. Instead, he used the pseudonym Zhuang Xiang and wrote a famous article of 'The talents of the country are born from generation to generation, each leading the coquettish for hundreds of years'. He won the first prize in one fell swoop and became the champion. Master Pang Tian thought highly of him and wanted to accept him as a student, but Hong Weiyi refused."

"Differences do not conspire with each other. Hong Weiyi is also an ambitious person. He established the Wanzong League and the Law Enforcement Hall to integrate all the sects into one. He wants to fight against the central court. However, the Wanzong League has been confiscated by the court recently. Wan Zongmeng suffered heavy losses and had to retreat back to Xichuan due to the vigorous encirclement and suppression by the blood-clothed legion of the army."

"We're going to Kyoto this time, and we happen to be in time for the imperial examination. Why don't we take the exam? Maybe we can get a title on the gold list, and the scenery is beautiful."

"To participate in the imperial examination, you need a document issued by the government of each state and province, and the document is stamped with the governor's seal."

"This is also easy to handle. Since the government documents are operated in secret, it's just a matter of grabbing a few."

"We are gentle people. If we go to rob for a government document, it won't sound good if it gets out. It's better to borrow it."

...Wen Hongyu, Lu Yan, Gu Heng, Ding Yunjie, Liang Huaji, Ge Lifang, Xu Rong and others also heard the voices outside, and they all spoke at once, eager to try.

Imperial examinations, in all dynasties, have been the top priority and have attracted the attention of the world, from the princes and nobles to the common people.

However, there are tens of thousands of people in the world, and not everyone is eligible to take the imperial examination. They need to have official documents.

The government's documents are originally issued to people with real talents and real learning, but black-box operations exist everywhere. If you have money and power, you can bribe the government and obtain the documents.

As for whether you can be named on the gold list, it depends on your own ability.

They are the remnants of the great departure from the country, and they are wanted by the court. No matter how much money they spend, each of them dares to give them official documents, so they can only rob them.

There is only one name on the official document. There are so many states and provinces in the Central Dynasty. I don’t know how many people there are. Imposters are not uncommon.

"Jiang Yi, tell me, do you want to participate in this imperial examination?" Gu Heng asked.

In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Yi.

"The purpose of Emperor Qingtian may be related to this imperial examination!" Jiang Yi said suddenly.

"what?"

Everyone was taken aback and looked at each other in blank dismay. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed very possible.

Emperor Qingtian took Concubine Lan Ruofei to the capital and forced them to go, but at this time, the imperial examination began, no matter who it was, I am afraid they would take part in the imperial examination and experience it.

The more they thought about it, the more frightened they became. If so, didn't they fall into Emperor Qingtian's calculations?
In an instant, it was as if a basin of cold water had been poured on them, causing the flames in their hearts to be extinguished immediately.

"Then we won't participate?" Ding Yunjie asked.

"Participate! Why not participate!"

Jiang Yi sneered, and his eyes shone with wisdom: "The imperial examination is a grand event, and the luck is good! The central dynasty is prosperous and occupies the infinite luck of the world. If it can be named on the gold list, the imperial decree will be conveyed, and the world will be announced. Being able to share a lot of luck will benefit a lot and benefit endlessly, so why not do it?"

Jiang Yi's luck has broken through to one, which is unimaginably strong, but one is not the end of luck, luck is infinite, and it will never end.

The higher the luck, the greater the benefits.

If you have accumulated your luck to a high level, you will be able to turn danger into good luck if you encounter any danger, with the help of God.

Looking at the world, the luck of the Central Dynasty is the most powerful, so it represents the will of God, and it is carried by the heavens.
