The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 992: Double Ninth Festival is Near

"Fortunately, the second volume is "The History of Cangyue Ancestral Emperor". Cangyue Ancestral Emperor is a giant, but he is the lowest wild giant. When he was born, he was equivalent to a demon general, the weakest among the giants, but he eventually grew up to be an ancestor emperor, equivalent to the ancestor god of the demons or the saint of the human race, Confucius."

Fang Yun thought of Cangyue Ancestral Emperor. Even if he was a foreign race he had never met, he still admired him. He was not only an ancestor emperor, but also the first ancestor emperor of the ancient demons. He rose in the dark period of the ancient demons after the suppression of the evil dragon of the prison, grew up step by step, and finally became an ancestor emperor. He defended the famous "Cangyue Plain", killed the dragon saints, opened the year of dawn, and created conditions for the ancient demons to reproduce or survive.

Cangyue Ancestral Emperor is not the strongest ancient demon, but he is the eternal spiritual leader of the ancient demons.

When conceiving "The History of Ancient Demons", Fang Yun was moved by the deeds of Cangyue Ancestral Emperor.

Fang Yun withdrew from the Wen Palace and found that the first volume of his "History of Ancient Monsters" had been bound into a book by an invisible force, and it exuded waves of strange breath and was full of mysterious power.

Since "Shangshu" and "Spring and Autumn Annals" are both considered historical books, occupying one-third of Confucius' six classics, human historians have always been prosperous, and many have studied historians as minors. History is included in the ten subjects of the palace examination.

And historians also have "searching for the ancients", which is to investigate ancient sites and enhance the human race's understanding of the ancient times.

However, since there are very few traces of ancient monsters in the Shengyuan Continent, although other ancient places have discovered ancient monsters, they cannot carry out large-scale archaeological activities to search for ancient monsters, so the human race knows very little about ancient monsters.

Now, the ancient monsters are back, and the storm is surging, and Fang Yun's "History of Ancient Monsters" has epoch-making significance for the human race.

In a sense, the role and significance of "History of Ancient Monsters" are no less than "Records of the Grand Historian".

Because once the "History of Ancient Demons" is completed and approved by the Shidao Stone Gate, the historians of high literary status can study this book carefully, and then they can summon ancient demons from the "historical books" to help in the battle, filling the gap in the power of historians!

More importantly, once the "History of Ancient Demons" is formed, the holy way of historians will be broadened again, and the historians can touch the holy way of historians by studying the "History of Ancient Demons".

This means that Fang Yun not only brings powerful power to the legalists, doctors, farmers and workers, but also allows historians to gain huge benefits.

"Let's send the book to the History Hall."

Fang Yun thought to himself, and recorded the first volume of the first part of the "History of Ancient Demons" in the official seal and sent it to the History Hall.

The five great historians of the History Hall immediately summoned the elite historians and returned to the Holy Academy as quickly as possible to hold a meeting in the History Hall to discuss the book. Before the meeting began, the elders asked for the projections of the three holy books of history, "Shangshu", "Spring and Autumn" and "Historical Records", to identify the book and determine that it was a real history book, not a fabrication.

On the first day of September, Wen Bao and Sheng Dao were published together.

In the ranking list of Jinshi candidates in the palace examination of Wen Bao, Fang Yun's history subject jumped from the previous Ding grade to "B-grade", and the news of "Ancient Demon History" was published at the same time.

Human historians and scholars rushed to tell each other.

Moreover, today's "Sheng Dao" has a supplement, which does not print other people's poems and articles, but only contains Fang Yun's "Ancient Demon History" Part I and Volume I!

This move has aroused doubts from many scholars, because not everyone studies history, and the content of the "Sheng Dao" supplement is completely history, which is a bit too much. After all, for scholars, as long as they buy "Sheng Dao", they must buy the supplement, but today's supplement makes many people hesitate.

However, the doubts about the supplement did not form a climate this time. Even the Lei family and the Zong family did not come forward to oppose it. Other people with high literary status and the children of aristocratic families seemed to be unaware of it and did not mention it at all.

Because those people already knew that the ancient monster had come, the reason why "Sacred Way" published this supplement was actually to popularize the knowledge of ancient monsters and prepare for the future of the human race.

Those who originally wanted to compete for the first-class in history gave up after reading it. This book is simply amazing. It actually knows the history of ancient monsters like the back of the hand. It just so happens that the ancient monster has come again. The History Palace will definitely report to the three examiners to ask Fang Yun to give the first-class in history in advance, that is, the first-class before the saint.

That afternoon, the History Palace, the Criminal Palace, the Engineering Palace and the Agricultural Palace jointly reported to the three semi-saint examiners, asking Fang Yun to give the four subjects of history, criminal justice, engineering and agriculture before the saint, which shocked the human race.

Adding the previous medical subject, it means that Fang Yun may get the first-class before the saint in five subjects.

Even the first-class in the ordinary five subjects is enough to be the best in the ages, unprecedented and unparalleled, and now the first-class before the saint makes people of the same generation and future generations despair.

Fang Yun's friends who had taken the imperial examination sent letters one after another, "crying" that it was a mistake to take the imperial examination with Fang Yun this year.

Although scholars from ancient lands outside Shengyuan Continent participated in the imperial examination, they did not participate in the official ranking of Shengyuan Continent. This led to many scholars from ancient lands who had always been dissatisfied with the imperial examination of Shengyuan Continent, but this year they were convinced.

And from this day on, a pessimistic argument began to appear in Shengyuan Continent. Except for Jingguo, the other nine countries plus Kongcheng of the human race may usher in the unprecedented absence of top-class champions, and be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

So, many imperial examination scholars began to study that except for the five subjects, the two subjects of education and literature could never compare with Fang Yun, so they had to compete in the three subjects of official administration, people's livelihood and military affairs.

So, someone on the discussion list even shouted the slogan "Miscellaneous scholars and military strategists, this year's imperial examination depends on you."

Miscellaneous scholars are good at politics, and military strategists are good at the army.

And the imperial examination scholars of these two families said that they must fight Fang Yun to the end.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that, in addition to military affairs, the two subjects of "people's livelihood" and "official administration" are already difficult.

Before, Ning'an County was controlled by the left-wing prime minister's party, so Fang Yun was powerless in official administration, but now that Ning'an County's official administration has been cleared, Fang Yun has a great chance of winning the first place.

As for people's livelihood, after solving the food disaster and cracking down, and Fang Yun's strong focus on hygiene, the lives of the people in the entire Ning'an County have slowly changed, and there is a faint atmosphere of a big city. Even people from the capital or even big countries feel inferior when they come to Ning'an, because Ning'an seems to be another world, and they can't understand the new words they say, such as "eliminating the four pests", "stressing hygiene", "crackdown", etc.

A small county town began to lead the trend and fashion of the entire human race!

After September, everyone in Ning'an County became busy, and all the officials also prepared for the "Double Ninth Festival Literary Meeting" wholeheartedly.

Chongyang Festival respects the elderly is a tradition of the human race. Fang Yun can not participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival Literary Meeting on August 15, but he must participate in the Double Ninth Festival Literary Meeting.

One of the main activities in autumn is to appreciate chrysanthemums. Fang Yun is a famous poet in the human race, so the officials spared no effort to arrange the chrysanthemums, so as to make Ning'an County more humanistic and let the people of Ning'an County enjoy chrysanthemums. This is to enhance Fang Yun's livelihood and education.

On the fourth day of September, Fang Yun visited Ning'an County incognito again, wanting to see the new atmosphere in Ning'an County. The result was very satisfactory. There were chrysanthemums everywhere, and the festive atmosphere was very strong. The traces of grain disasters were completely eliminated, and the tension caused by the crackdown was relieved, so that relaxation was achieved.

On the way back, Fang Yun thought about which poem to write on September 9 this year that combined the Double Ninth Festival and chrysanthemums, and prepared to praise the officials in charge.
