Qin Huaidao returned after releasing the news, but the whole city of Chang'an became excited.
Everyone is talking about Qin Huaidao's speech. Road construction is no longer unfamiliar to everyone. Many people participated in the cement road back then, and the wages were sufficient. They could also sell grain to the workers, and the money was also sufficient.
Many people have changed their family circumstances as a result.
Now that we have to build roads again, everyone's thoughts are aroused.
No one was worried about not getting money. The King of Han had done so many things without any deduction or delay. His reputation was built with real money. He was absolutely reliable!
The common people are talking about building roads, but the scholars are talking about the scientific examination in a month. The scientific examination should be authorized by the emperor, and only the emperor is qualified to open the subject to obtain scholars, but no one cares about this detail.
In a private room by the window on the second floor of a pub.
Li Chunfeng, who was dressed in a Taoist uniform, was having a drink when a thin man came in, cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Brother Li. I wonder what Brother Li's orders are when he is summoned?"
"Brother Han, you are polite." Li Chunfeng returned the courtesy and made a gesture of invitation.
A thin man surnamed Han sat down across from him. Li Chunfeng filled up a glass for him and filled up his own cup, asking, "Have you heard about the speech King Han made in Dongshi?"
"I heard it, but I don't know if it's true or not." The man surnamed Han said casually.
Li Chunfeng raised his glass. The two looked at each other and drank it down in tacit understanding. Li Chunfeng filled the glass for both of them again and continued: "There are familiar and trustworthy people present, so it is impossible to trick me. There are people who the King of Han is working hard to rule.
With the heroic appearance, the Tang Dynasty can be saved."
"Isn't that good? You can continue to go back to the Taishi Bureau to be your general. Brother Li is proficient in astronomy, calendar, mathematics, etc., and is even better at the way of yin and yang. He will definitely be appreciated by the King of Han. His future is limitless. I would like to wish Brother Li here.
Already." The man surnamed Han smiled and raised his glass.
The two drank it all in one gulp, and the man surnamed Han took the jug.
The two were close friends and cherished each other, so they did not care about false courtesy. Li Chunfeng continued: "Brother Zhihe, the King of Han is a benevolent and righteous man. Now everything is in ruins and the court is in urgent need of all kinds of talents. The King of Han even directly announced his intention to the world in Dongshi.
The opportunity is in front of us to recruit talents from all over the world, why don’t you Momen come out?"
"The situation in Momen is more complicated than you think, and it's hard to explain in one sentence." The man surnamed Han said with a wry smile.
Li Chunfeng continued: "Okay, let's put Momen aside, what about you? Wouldn't it be a pity to have all your talents buried here? The wooden birds you made can fly, the wooden cats can catch mice, especially the bed crossbow you made.
If you can kill the enemy, it is better to offer it to the King of Han to benefit one side and leave a name for the ages."
"Fame is like a cloud to me." The man surnamed Han said nonchalantly. Seeing that Li Chunfeng still wanted to persuade him, he continued: "The wooden bird and wooden cat are just a sideshow, something that makes people laugh. As for the bed crossbow, the king of Han has something like thunder.
It can easily destroy the city wall. I went to see the Xuanwu Gate. It’s unbelievable. The bed crossbow is outdated.”
After saying that, a look of loneliness and helplessness appeared in his eyes.
Li Chunfeng said anxiously: "Even if what you create is useless to the court, your ability cannot be underestimated. The King of Han is also a master of skills. Maybe with a few words, you can benefit a lot and create incredible things.
The name will last forever.”
The man named Han was immediately tempted.
Li Chunfeng continued to persuade: "You can make wooden birds fly into the sky, and the King of Han can make people fly into the sky. It is clear which one is higher and which one is lower. Joining the King of Han may be the best choice in your life. Once you miss it, you will regret it."
The young man surnamed Han became more and more excited.
The two of them were silent, each with their own thoughts.
After a while, the young man surnamed Han drank the wine in his glass and said solemnly: "Thank you, Brother Li, for enlightening me. Han will book the next scientific examination."
"Great, Li will go with us then."
"Aren't you already a general in the imperial history bureau? Why did you take the exam?" the young man surnamed Han asked in surprise.
"Li followed the King of Qin and made a record office to join the army. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he went to the Taishi Bureau to waste his time. It was not what I wanted. Now that the dynasty has changed, things are different from the past. Naturally, I want to jump out of the Taishi Bureau and start from scratch. Before the King of Han
It was proposed to establish the Institute of Science and Technology, with Duke Wei in charge. Later, when the war broke out, there was no movement, but we cannot say that the Institute of Science and Technology is not good, on the contrary, that is where you and I can show off our talents." Li Chunfeng explained, his eyes enthusiastic.
“The guys from the Science and Technology Academy have also heard of it, it’s true!”
"Drink victory!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, reaching a tacit understanding.
…
Wanhua Building, third floor, Tianzi No. 1 private room.
Countless students gathered together and talked loudly, almost all about the scientific examination in a month.
One student stood up and shouted loudly: "Quiet, quiet, quiet."
Everyone fell silent and looked at this person.
The man continued: "The King of Han is just a king. Scientific examination is the privilege of the emperor. How can we allow a king to do whatever he wants? It is simply causing trouble to Gangchang and is not something a gentleman would do. You are all disciples of a saint. You should defend the Tao and defend the saint Gangchang to the death."
Etiquette."
"That's right, I, the students from Jiangnan, don't even want to be in the same league. I should write a letter to tens of thousands of people and go to the saint's temple to petition, tell the world, defend the etiquette and law, and protect my holy way." A man next to him also jumped out and shouted, emotionally.
"That's right, the way of a saint cannot be tarnished, and the rules of etiquette cannot be abolished, otherwise the world will be in chaos."
"The king is still a minister. There is a difference between the king and his ministers. How can he do the things of the emperor?"
"Go together, go together!"
Many people jumped out and shouted, excited.
There were also many people who stayed silent, quietly distanced themselves, and sneaked out without any intention of participating.
After going out, these people came to a private room not far away in a tacit understanding. There was a middle-aged man sitting in deep thought, with many thoughts on his mind. Everyone came forward and saluted: "See Mr. Sun."
Mr. Sun, Sun Fuga, was the first imperial examination champion in the Tang Dynasty. He passed the examination in about the fifth year of Wude (622), Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty, and served as Wannian County Facao (minister of the county-level judicial department, equivalent to the president of the court and the public security bureau).
Chang), he is loyal and sincere, dares to speak out and give advice, and has the style of Wei Zheng.
After Li Er was killed and Li Tai came to power, Sun Fuga learned that Wei Zheng had left Chang'an. He was disheartened and resigned from his official position. He concentrated on studying at home and planned to come to Japan.
"How is the situation?" Sun Fuga asked, looking at everyone.
One of them raised his hand and said, "Everything is as Master Sun expected. Jiangnan students may have tens of thousands of people writing books to cause trouble."
"Let them make trouble. Although the King of Han is benevolent and righteous, the sword in his hand is also sharp." Sun Fujia said indifferently.
"Will it affect students like me?" a young man asked worriedly.
Others also looked at Sun Fuga worriedly, with Sun Fuga as the leader, whose eyes were full of worry.
Sun Fujia said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, the north and the south have been divided since ancient times. Those students from the south of the Yangtze River can go and make trouble. We students from the north will not interfere or make any remarks. When we return, we will close our doors tightly, not participate in any activities, and concentrate on learning.
Just wait for the scientific examination in a month."
"Master Sun's words make sense. From the younger generation's point of view, the quarrel among Jiangnan students may be related to the family. After all, the imperial court is in Luoyang, and the interests are involved. It may even be the instigation of their family behind this." A man suddenly said.
Sun Fujia took a deep look at the other party and reminded: "You are considered to be the best among many northern students in your studies. Thank you behind closed doors and study hard. Remember, don't talk about what happened when you are not in your position. Be careful of misfortune."
If you speak out, you will ruin your own future, and so will you."
