Dao Fruit

Li Kun was in high spirits when suddenly a small yellow door came outside the door.

The young eunuch knew the emperor's temperament very well. He didn't say much after coming in and just knelt on the ground.

Soon, Li Kun restrained his joy and cast his gaze over: "What? What's going on in the Political Hall?"

"Your Majesty," Xiao Huangmen said hurriedly, "several prime ministers are quarreling over the banditry in the south. Wang Xianggong wants to meet with His Majesty and present the regulations."

"There are thieves in the south?" Li Kun frowned, "Is it the cult that has appeared in the three southern roads in recent months? I heard that it is called Bailian, but hasn't the rear army governor's office gone to suppress the rebellion? How can it still happen? Can we go to the Political Hall?"

The little Huangmen took advantage of the situation and said: "Although several prime ministers quarreled over the thieves in the south, and then brought up the chaos at Yanzhao, and then the Tiangang Disha thieves in Heifeng Mountain, which caused a quarrel in the military, Wang Xianggong intends to reform the army. system and implemented new laws in the army, which annoyed several other prime ministers. "

"So that's it." After hearing this, Li Kun finally understood, "It's because of the new law again. Nowadays, the court is quarreling about it. No matter what happens, in the final analysis, it's still because of the new law!"

He looked tired, then stood up, turned around and walked back, followed closely by the old man waiting beside him.

Li Kun moved slowly, reached the innermost part of the study, and looked up at the wall.

On the wall, there is a picture of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, painted by an unknown artist. Mountains, rivers, cities, and military towns are all displayed on it, lifelike, with various vague images appearing everywhere.

I saw the murderous aura and beacon fire in the northwest.

The southwest is not peaceful either, there is the light of swords;

In Lingnan, you can vaguely see a white lotus in bud;

To the southeast, the waves are rough, and harpoons break out of the water from time to time. Pointing directly at several coastal prefectures.

In the eastern part of Jiangshan, there are more than a hundred general stars gathered together, flashing and shining, releasing a fierce aura, eroding the Da Rui Dragon Qi.

Further north, there is chaos. It seems that through this picture, you can hear the wailing of the victims and the roar of the refugees.

As for outside the northern border. There is even a black dragon looming, rising and falling in the grassland, showing a violent, wanton, and devouring momentum.

"The people of the world live in a corner and can only see what is in front of them. They think that there are beautiful flowers and peaceful singing and dancing. Who knows the hidden dangers in the mountains and rivers thousands of miles away? There is great resistance to the implementation of the new law. Officials and gentry all over the world almost come together to block it. How can I not know about it? The reason. However, the country is in dire straits. If we don’t reform, the dragon’s veins will be shaken sooner or later, and the country will not be safe!”

"Your Majesty..." The old man next to him heard this. He was shocked and hurried forward to comfort him, but the emperor raised his hand to stop him.

"There is no need to comfort me, my dear companion." Li Kun took a deep breath, "Since the divine weapon of Sheji has been passed to me, I naturally have no choice but to shoulder the responsibility. It doesn't matter even if I exhaust my energy and shorten my life, it's a pity that the civil and military officials of the dynasty..."

Having said this, he was stunned for a moment, thought of something, then returned to the table, picked up the memorials above, flipped them a few times, glanced at them a few times, and then said: "I remember that Liu Jing is against the reform. And Li Qi is Wang Qing’s favorite general. As for Song Yuan, he has the Shi family behind him and belongs to the army, so he has always remained neutral..."

Li Kun was flipping through the pages and thinking.

"Although these three people are all working in Jiannan Dao, they almost all had different opinions on the previous memorials. Even if they occasionally reported the same matter, they were mostly in conflict. How come they all agree on Qiu Yan's matter this time? Are they all praise? This Qiu Yan is not simple..."

He pondered for a moment, with a smile on his face, put away his pen, and wrote comments on several memorials——

"The country is fortunate to have talented people."

Looking at the approval of the memorial in her hand, Liu Jing fell into deep thought.

It took three days for this batch of replies to reach Jiannan. During these three days, the situation in Jiannan Road changed. As Wu Xin's army sent troops, the original garrison soldiers were jointly mobilized by the observers and censors. Under the pressure of the general situation, The people from the marsh, headed by the Nazaru tribe, unexpectedly surrendered and apologized.

This change affected the whole body at once, forcing the Yongping Army to take action. Even Pan Xiang, who was beaten by Bian Xin and lost his armor, also seized the opportunity to counterattack.

Now that the dangerous situation has been reversed!

As a result, the situation in the entire Jiannan Road changed drastically. The army led by Bao Xin and the Fan people who took advantage of the West Road to go north became a lonely force. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before it was completely subdued.

It was only at this time that the people of Jiannan Road realized that they had almost fallen into a military disaster, but fortunately it had subsided. When they were frightened, they couldn't help but feel grateful to the observer envoy and the two military envoys.

However, anyone who knows the inside story knows that this matter is not simple, and the real hero of calming down the crisis is someone else.

"A piece of military strategy, strategizing, this Qiu Yan is indeed a rare talent. If he had not yet had an official status, I am afraid he would have been summoned by the Holy Emperor to encourage him. Young people are to be feared, 'talented' and 'lucky', These two words are incredible, more useful than gold and silver rewards."

Looking at the comments in her hand, Liu Jing pondered for a while, then turned to ask the staff beside her: "Is Qiu Yan still in the city?"

When the news of the invasion of the Numa people and the Fan people reached Jiannan City, the overall situation was decided. Naturally, there was no need for Qiu Yan and Jing Quanzi to stay in the government office, so these two people have now left.

When the staff heard the inquiry, he replied: "Qiu Yan has been staying in the inn for the past few days, waiting for the results to be released." He guessed Liu Jing's thoughts, and then said, "Would you like me to go down and pass a message for you to give him some advice?" a little?"

"No need, let him wait for the list in peace," Liu Jing waved his hand, "However, I summoned him to the mansion this time, after all, I was a little anxious, there may be trouble, you have to pay attention, don't let Qiu Yan be wronged, and bring the pen and ink, I want to write a letter to Peng'er."

"Yes, I understand." The staff immediately understood Liu Jing's plan.

Time flies, and the announcement of the list is here in a blink of an eye.

That day, before dawn, the whole Jiannan City was bustling everywhere. Scholars and Confucian scholars walked through the streets and alleys, looking around from time to time, all of which were unable to sit still, wanting to see the team announcing the good news.

The military disasters in the past few days could not stop the Confucian scholars from their desire for the list. Many people lost their appetite and tossed and turned, thinking that they had no other time except waiting for the list. There were even rumors that two elderly scholars died suddenly due to overdrawn mind and body, but it was also normal and not surprising.

Before dawn, there were already crowds of people around the screen wall in front of the Imperial Examination Hall.

After studying for several years, dozens of years, or even dozens of years, they have been striving hard and looking forward to it day and night. The thoughts of the whole family, young and old, are pinned on that list!

"What a great list! Before the list is released, it has gathered so many essences and thoughts. Each one is rich in humanistic atmosphere, pure, fanatical, and excited. If it can be absorbed by a god, the incense and thoughts around the tribute courtyard alone are enough to support a seventh-grade god!"

Qiu Yan and others were also among the crowd. He let go of his perception and felt the fluctuations of thoughts around him.

Although the crowd was crowded, Qiu Yan had life cultivation. After refining the fourth soul, he was even more powerful. Even if he didn't show it, he could squeeze others away without leaving a trace with just a little cleverness. At the same time, he let Zhang Zhen, Zhou Guan, and Luo Jiayun next to him have a foothold. Otherwise, with their bodies, I'm afraid they would have a hard time standing.

"Good guy, I thought I came early enough, but I didn't expect that there were already so many people outside the tribute courtyard!" Looking around, Zhou Guan couldn't help but sigh.

Zhang Zhen obviously had experience. Hearing this, he said, "One list can change your fate. How many people's hopes are there? How can it not be taken seriously? I'm afraid someone was waiting here yesterday afternoon."

The two seemed to be chatting, but in fact they were using this to divert their minds and relieve their tension. When they talked, their eyes were always fixed on the screen wall.

Beside the two, Luo Jiayun pursed his lips tightly, said nothing, stared at the screen wall, and his face turned pale.

Among the four, only Qiu Yan was the most calm and had time to feel the rolling thoughts around him. He sighed and suddenly, his face changed slightly. At the edge of the surging crowd, he caught a trace of familiar breath.

"This is..."

Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and was thinking. Suddenly, he felt his skin move. He knew that someone was locking onto him. Then he saw a big man in blue clothes squeezed through the crowd. When he saw Qiu Yan, he looked at him twice, then clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Qiu, please follow me. Someone wants to see you."

"Huh?" Zhang Zhen and others were all stunned when they saw this. "Who wants to see Qiu Yan at this time?"

Noticing the expressions of several people, Qiu Yan smiled and gave a brief explanation. Under the gaze of the three people's puzzled eyes, he followed the big man in blue and squeezed out of the crowd.

As they walked, the two shook their muscles from time to time. People along the way avoided them one after another like fish in water. There was a sense of unimpeded flow.

"Who wants to see Shen Zhi at this time?"

Zhang Zhen, Zhou Guan and Luo Jiayun stood there, looking puzzled. They looked at each other for a few times, but before they had time to think, they were tossed around by the surging crowd. Once Qiu Yan left, no one helped them. With their bodies, they could only go with the flow.

On the other side, Qiu Yan and the man in blue squeezed out of the crowd in a few breaths. Then the man turned around and said, "Young master, please go forward and you will see an old friend. I will take my leave first."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked away with big strides.

Qiu Yan didn't care and followed his instructions. Soon he saw a familiar figure at the corner of the street.

"It's been a long time since we last met, Brother Zheng. You left for the imperial examination that year, and there has been no news since then. I'm really worried about you."

The man standing on the corner of the street, dressed like a scholar, has a very solemn demeanor, giving people the feeling of a well-educated person. Compared with two years ago, his appearance has changed slightly, but his appearance and demeanor are still the same. Who else could it be but Zheng Zhongsen?

"My dear brother, after we parted, my fate was too bizarre. I can't explain it clearly for a while, and not everyone will believe it. But I came here this time to ask you for something." (To be continued. Please search for Piaotian Literature, the novels are better and updated faster!
