The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Fang Yun got off the carriage, and thousands of people bowed and said in unison: "Farewell, Fang Xusheng!"

Fang Yun smiled and nodded, saying: "Thank you all for seeing me off."

The newly promoted scholars were extremely jealous. They were going to the palace examination, and almost the whole city saw them off. It was not like ordinary scholars who got on a carriage with their families and set off. Not to mention the soldiers, the court did not even arrange for the servants, and they had to solve everything by themselves.

Fang Yun said with thunderous tongue: "The capital is far away from Ning'an County, so you don't have to be polite. I will board the ship now. Everyone, goodbye!"

Fang Yun bowed to everyone and got on the dragon horse carriage again. He saw the dragon horse hooves stepping into the air, and flew diagonally into the sky with the carriage, and finally flew to the empty building ship.

The private soldiers behind him boarded the ship in an orderly team.

All the people present were scholars. Although they could raise private soldiers of monsters after becoming Jinshi, many people could not afford it. Only those generals who had been fighting for many years could subdue monsters, or they were the children of wealthy or noble families.

Moreover, even if those people had private soldiers of monsters, they were only a few, and even the left prime minister Liu Shan had less than ten private soldiers of monsters.

However, Fang Yun had four hundred private soldiers, and there were so many monster marquises. This was a treatment that even the children of the sub-sage family could not get. Even the direct descendants of the Confucius family had only one monster marquis following them when they went out.

However, more people focused on the private soldiers of more than one hundred scholars.

It can be said that each of these more than one hundred scholars was Fang Yun's staff, each of them was Fang Yun's assistant, and each of them was Fang Yun's assistant. Among them, there were many old-timers in the officialdom, the Academy of Literature, the military, the Saint Academy, and even the noble families. With them, Fang Yun would never make the mistakes made by ordinary Jinshi.

Every year, before taking office, the candidates for the palace examination would hire a staff member or an old official who had worked in the government office at a high price. With their help, the results of the palace examination may not be very good, but they can make the results of the palace examination not too bad.

As we all know, the real hard bone of the palace examination is "official administration". How to deal with the relationship with officials and local tyrants in the whole county is the key to the results of the palace examination.

The airship took off, and Fang Yun stood at the bow. He saw that the streets in all directions were crowded with people, with the Wenyuan as the center, blocking the road tightly. Countless people were looking up at the sky, waving their arms, and shouting Fang Yun's name.

After Chen Sheng, Fang Yun is the only hope of Jingguo!

No one said this, but everyone knew it very well.

There was a serious generational gap in the talents of Jingguo.

Although Li Wenying was comparable to the four great talents, there was a huge gap between him and Chen Guanhai, and there was no genius who could control a country.

And between Li Wenying and Fang Yun, there was no genius close to the four great talents.

If Chen Sheng had not been injured and lived for many more years, perhaps someone could be canonized, but everyone knows that before Chen Sheng's death, no one in Jingguo could be canonized!

The consequence of no one in Jingguo being canonized is that the neighboring Wuguo and Qingguo can divide Jingguo.

There is no country without a saint.

But Fang Yun is a virtual saint. As long as Fang Yun can withstand the pressure from Wuguo and Qingguo, Jingguo has a chance to wait for someone to be canonized.

However, this hope is very slim, and a mere virtual saint cannot withstand the pressure from the two countries.

Therefore, there has always been an undercurrent surging in Jingguo, which is also the main reason why the left prime minister Liu Shan can stand firm.

Even the royal family dare not tear their faces with Liu Shan, because once Jingguo is divided, the royal family will inevitably abdicate. By then, Liu Shan has countless ways to make the royal family of Jingguo live a life worse than death.

Fang Yun stood at the bow and said goodbye to the people in the city.

The sky-walking building ship exceeded the speed of a single sound, broke through the sound barrier, and flew quickly to Ning'an County.

The sky-walking ship broke through the clouds and arrived at the stratosphere, flying steadily and rapidly.

Many people and monsters were riding the sky-walking ship for the first time. Although they looked into the distance with curiosity, they still lined up in an orderly team.

Fang Yun said to Ao Huang: "Let them disband and take a rest."

"Disband!" Ao Huang shouted arrogantly.

In Ao Huang's eyes, the most impressive thing in the world is to be a coach, because he can train a group of private soldiers to cry for their parents.

After a while, the fragrant wind blew in his face, and Fang Yun felt a soft and warm hand holding him.

Fang Yun turned his head and saw Yang Yuhuan in a white dress standing beside him.

Yang Yuhuan did not look at Fang Yun, but stared at the sea of ​​clouds in front of him.

"Why, are you homesick?"

Yang Yuhuan shook her head.

"Aren't you afraid?" Fang Yun smiled.

Yang Yuhuan whispered: "Home is where you are, don't be afraid."

There was an unprecedented firmness in her soft voice.

"Hmm!" Fang Yun shook Yang Yuhuan's hand with all his strength.

After flying for an unknown period of time, a large hole with a diameter of several hundred miles suddenly appeared in the sea of ​​clouds ahead, forming a clear sky, like a large pit.

Fang Yun's expression changed slightly.

When the sky-walking ship approached the edge of the hole, Fang Yun looked down and saw a mountain range with ups and downs ahead, and in the northwest, there was a huge pass embedded at the foot of the mountain, which became the only passage between the north and south of the mountain range.

That was Yuyang Pass. Once Yuyang Pass was breached, the monsters could march straight in and head straight for the capital.

In Yuyang Pass, countless soldiers were training, and many passing merchants and travelers were resting.

The Yingyang Army was stationed inside.

In the center of Yuyang Pass stood a holy temple, forming a powerful force to protect the pass and disperse the clouds.

It would not be long before Fang Yun's enemy, Tong Luan, the Minister of War, would enter Yuyang Pass, take over the Yingyang Army, and guard the place.

The importance of the Yingyang Army is second only to the garrison of the capital.

Yuyang Pass is the rear base of Ning'an County. Once the monsters break into Ning'an County, the Yingyang Army of Yuyang Pass will be fully responsible.

If the garrison of Yuyang Pass does not help the monsters invade, Ning'an County will be breached!

If Ning'an County is breached when Fang Yun is the acting county magistrate, Fang Yun will be the last in all ten subjects and become the last Jinshi among the ten countries' palace examinations!

In the history of the human race, there has only been one unlucky Jinshi who was the last in all ten subjects. In the end, that Jinshi died with the monsters in anger.

This is what some scholars have said, luck.

Bad luck, no one can be blamed.

Fang Yun looked at Yuyang Pass and fell into deep thought.

Qingguo Palace, Qiuge.

After reading the memorial in his hand, Qing Jun slammed it on the table and said angrily: "The officials of Jing State are really too much! They actually asked me to exchange the imperial examination quotas of the two prefectures for Linjiang Prefecture! In this way, the number of students in Qing State will decrease by nearly 3,000 and the number of scholars will decrease by 200 every year!"

"Your Majesty, calm down. Linjiang Prefecture is more important than the imperial examination quotas of the two prefectures." Zong Wuyuan stood opposite Qing Jun.

Qing Jun snorted coldly and said: "Wuyuan, the strategy of selecting people for the literary battle was formulated by you. You said that if ten people are different, they will definitely be able to defeat Fang Yun. What about now?"

Zong Wuyuan suddenly showed a mysterious smile and said: "Your Majesty, don't you think that forcing Fang Yun to use all his tricks in public is more important than the land of a state?"

"Oh?" Qing Jun thought for a moment and suddenly said in surprise, "You mean, you want to let the demon world know all of Fang Yun's trump cards? Let them make their killing moves against Fang Yun more deadly?"

Zong Wuyuan smiled slightly and said: "This is what your majesty said, but I didn't say it."
