When Judge Wu heard Cheng Huang's words, he was immediately stunned, and there was even a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"Sir, you..."
"Does Mr. Xu think that Mr. Cheng Huang's judgment is wrong?"
The civil judge looked at his colleague as if he were a fool.
He still remembered the shock and astonishment on this guy's face when he saw the awe-inspiring aura left by the No. 1 scholar in his old house when he followed the City God's Dharma frame to this place not long ago.
Obviously, this guy still has some self-awareness and knows that he went up to give it for free, but he actually wants Lord Cheng Huang to take action personally. I don't know what is going on in his mind.
It's just a domestic dog that has become a spirit. Why should Lord Chenghuang use his own background to fight off the awe-inspiring aura left by the Six-Yuan champion.
Let’s not talk about how much damage the Lord City God will suffer if we fight it all. Let’s just talk about the Feng family mansion. Without the protection of Haoran Qi, who will bear the responsibility if something happens in the future?
This guy actually wanted to do something that was obviously offending and unflattering.
"What Lord Cheng Huang said is certainly correct!"
Judge Wu also had to admit that this was the first time he had seen a dog that could hide in the aura to avoid ghosts and gods, but even so, it could not erase the fact.
"It's just that this dog has become accustomed to getting along with mortals. If one day he has evil thoughts in his heart, how can the lives of mortals here be guaranteed?"
Without fear of awe, he can admit that this dog is a spiritual beast, but even if it is a spiritual beast, there are still cases of hurting people. The most important point is that the people who raise this dog are mortals and have no countermeasures at all.
Putting the lives of mortals at the mercy of alien thoughts, he could not tolerate this happening, even if the probability of it happening was extremely low.
If he is a cultivator, he can tolerate it for the time being, but among the hundreds of households in this village, he has not seen a single cultivator. As for the land in this village, oh, this land can still support dogs that become demons in less than half a year.
how long?
"How can a domestic dog that is psychic due to the influence of Zhuangyuan Wenqi hurt people?"
The judge responded immediately.
In his opinion, this dog must have been nourished by the scholar's literary spirit, and then it became spiritually intelligent and turned into a monster.
And most of these monsters are relatively close to family members. As long as they are given more guidance, they can indeed transform into spiritual beasts that protect their families and homes.
"What if this happens?"
Judge Wu asked.
"Strictly investigate the past of the person injured by this dog. There must be a reason for everything. The person injured by this spirit dog will definitely be a traitor and evil person!"
Judge Wen replied without hesitation.
"Flattery!"
Judge Wu glared and scolded.
There is no way to assume that the injured person is a treacherous person. What he assumed has not happened yet, and it is just a given.
"Stupid and stubborn person!"
Judge Wen also sneered and responded.
"Okay, you are all my right-hand men, how can it be appropriate to argue like this? The matter has been decided, so there is no need to argue."
Yongning City God spoke at the right time and stopped the quarrel.
"Sir, do you really want to leave this dog alone?"
"If Judge Wu is worried, he can personally come here to inspect the place frequently!"
The city god replied.
"good!"
Judge Wu immediately nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, the city god didn't say much. He waved his broad-sleeved robe lightly, and the vast divine power turned into a strong wind, wrapped up the judge and went on a parade, and the yaksha ghost sent him to Yongning County.
After returning to the legal domain of the City God, many ghosts and gods dispersed and each had their own duties. It was okay to leave temporarily, but if it was abandoned for a long time, evil spirits would breed in Yongning County and humans and animals would be uneasy.
"grown ups!"
Judge Wen caught up with the City God.
"What's the matter, Mr. An?"
The Yongning City God is cheerful and cheerful.
"I have something I want to ask Lord Cheng Huang for advice!"
"You want to ask about that ball of Haoran Qi?"
"Your Excellency, you really have a clear eye for everything!"
Judge Wen complimented.
"There's no need to be so flattering. Your appearance really echoes Xu Wupan's flattery."
The city god smiled.
"These are the words from the bottom of my heart!"
"Haha, that awe-inspiring aura is indeed extraordinary. Even though I know a few details about this year's number one scholar, I was really surprised today, not to mention you."
Yongning City God did not dwell too much on it, but instead talked about the awe-inspiring aura.
"My lord, five years ago, Liu Huai, a great scholar of the time, passed by this county. When his subordinates heard the news, they took a look at it from a distance. They thought that the true spirit was powerful and that all evils were warded off.
However, I feel that even this great scholar of the time cannot compare with the majestic aura of the No. 1 Scholar."
Judge Wen expressed his confusion. During his lifetime, he was a civil servant and a disciple of Confucianism. Because of this, he knew better how exaggerated it was to leave such a majestic aura to the Number One Scholar.
"Even if it is the only Liu Yuan in the founding dynasty, is such a scene too..."
In the end, Judge Wen couldn't even find a good description.
"Too outrageous? It's not like what a mere top pick should be."
Yongning City God added something.
"Exactly, the champion is now less than fourteen years old. When Xiaguan was fourteen years old, he was still thinking about writing a love poem to the one he admired!"
Talking about this matter, Judge Wen showed a wry smile on his face. Compared with the number one scholar at the same age, no, there is no need to compare at all.
"Hahaha, it's human nature for a young man to admire Ai. As for this champion, I naturally can't guess based on my knowledge, and he can't be treated with common sense."
"Please give me some advice, sir!"
Judge Wen respectfully asked for advice. He was really curious, and Lord Cheng Huang obviously knew something.
"Do you think that Enke's top scorer this year relied on the appreciation of the examiner and today's favor to win the honor of sixth prize?"
Yongning City God suddenly asked.
"Is not it?"
Judge Wen asked with some confusion.
The imperial examination was an important means for the Jin Dynasty to select talents from among the people. If you concentrate on your homework, study hard, and have a solid foundation in the first three tests of the imperial examination, the county examination, the government examination, and the college examination, you will be able to pass it in all likelihood.
But it has been different since the beginning of the rural examination. After passing the rural examination, people can be promoted and can be officials. Because it is the imperial court selecting officials, the ability to govern the country will also be tested, and there is a lot to say about it.
Therefore, when candidates with a flexible mind reach this level, they will often mobilize their connections and spend money to inquire about the examiner's political opinions, usual language, preferences, and even recent memorials.
Not to mention the final stage of the imperial examination, the palace examination. At this stage, the worst person can even be compared with a fellow Jinshi, and the key is the ranking of the candidates.
This ranking can nominally be decided by the emperor alone. Of course, the emperor will not be so idle. He basically pays attention to the first-class ranking, so whether he can get the blessing of the Sacred Heart is very important.
Whether the article is well written or not is not particularly important at this time. If there is a handsome person, even if the literary talent is slightly inferior, he can be classified by the emperor into the first class. On the contrary, he will be kicked out by the emperor because of his ugly appearance.
, existed in ancient times.
All in all, whether one can get first place in the last three levels of the imperial examination, his literary talent is not the decisive factor.
