Datang: Get Xiang Yu's divine power at the beginning

Chapter 128 The Imperial Examination
Li Chengdao rubbed his brows and asked, Ma Chao and Qinglong heard the words, Ma Chao replied: "Your Majesty can rest assured about this matter, Qinglong's commander's methods are brilliant, and the other party didn't notice it at all!"

Hearing this, Li Chengdao slapped the dragon table heavily with his palm, and said, "It's unreasonable, wolf ambition, wolf ambition!"

Seeing Li Chengdao being so angry, Qinglong and Ma Chao did not dare to speak for a while. Li Chengdao thought for a moment and said: "Qinglong, please continue to follow up on this matter. If there is any situation, report it in time. Remember not to alert the enemy!"

"Subordinates obey!"

"Ma Chao, continue digging along the line between Zhao Shengtai and Hou Yongwu. If you find anything, report it first. Don't act on your own!"

"The end will be ordered!"

"Two dear friends, people in the court are in panic now. Many important officials at the yamen have resigned. Mr. Kong Ming is helping me select talents, but water from afar cannot quench the thirst of the near. Now I have no one available except you. , I really don’t know who to rely on. It’s harder for the two dear friends!”

"Your Majesty's words are serious, eating the king's salary is a matter of loyalty to the king!"

Ma Chao and Qinglong said in unison, and then Li Chengdao waved his hand. Ma Chao said hello and retreated, but Qinglong stood there without moving.

Li Chengdao looked at Qinglong strangely, and asked, "Commander Qinglong, is there anything else?"

Hearing this, Qinglong said: "Your Majesty, my subordinates have recently discovered that Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling often enter the Prince of Qin's Mansion at night and do not leave until very late. Moreover, after the incident in Dali Temple last time, the subordinates of I noticed someone was secretly inquiring about Jin Yiwei."

"Have you ever heard what they were talking about?"

Li Chengdao asked, and Qinglong replied: "Not yet. The Qin Palace is heavily guarded, and it is a royal family. Without His Majesty's order, the subordinates dare not act privately."

"Okay!" Li Chengdao heard the words, thought for a moment and said: "This matter needs continuous attention, but don't be discovered by King Qin and the others!"

"Yes!" Qinglong replied: "In addition, my subordinates found out that before the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice caught fire, someone saw an old man visiting Mr. Zhao!"

"Visit Mr. Zhao? Do you know who it is?" Li Chengdao asked doubtfully.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, according to my subordinates, this person is quite skilled in martial arts, and all the followers who followed were thrown off by him one by one, and my subordinates have not been able to find out the details of this person."

Li Chengdao looked at the frustrated Qinglong and asked, "It doesn't matter. The Jianghu is so big, there are countless strange people! The duty of Jin Yiwei is not only to follow, you don't have to blame yourself for this matter, you have the opportunity to investigate again!"

After hearing the words, Qinglong thanked her and left.

The palace is now empty, with only Li Chengdao left. Li Chengdao's eyes are dull, and he is sitting there, seeming to be thinking about something...

"How's it going?"

In the dark room, Li Shimin looked at the kneeling person and asked.

"Everything has been done according to your instructions! Now I have changed his name to He Qiu. I have hidden him and am training him secretly."

"very good!"

"It's all His Highness's plan. With such a meticulous plan, not to mention Li Chengdao, even Zhao Shengtai's son didn't notice the difference at all!"

At this moment, the face of the person in the darkness showed up, it was He Qi who saved Mr. Zhao!

It turned out that everything was designed by Li Shimin, the king of Qin. The purpose was to use Zhao Shengtai's son's hatred for Li Chengdao and train him to be a hidden assassin. When the opportunity came, he was sent to take Li Chengdao's life!

"What is Li Chengdao doing in civil and military affairs recently? Think of a way to change He Qiu's identity. I will use the power of the court here to arrange for him to become an official in the court!"

"Yes! Don't worry, Your Highness, He Qiu is now focused on avenging his father. He has trained very hard. I believe that before the martial arts examination, he should be able to catch up!"

"Very good, but the change of identity must be in place, whether it is appearance or voice, it must be changed. I heard that Ma Chao will be invigilating the exam this time. He has met He Qiu, so don't be recognized!"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, this subordinate has his own discretion!"

"Okay, Li Chengdao, don't you want to choose talents? I'll give you someone, and it depends on whether you dare to use it!"

Three days later, the imperial examination began. The prime minister, Kong Ming, was the examiner and visited the examination room in person. Li Chengdao also went to the examination room to encourage scholars from all over the world.

According to Li Chengdao's opinion, this year's exam is different from the previous ones. It breaks the traditional stereotyped essay restrictions and allows candidates to discuss state affairs in the exam paper. At the same time, subjects such as mathematics and engineering are added.

Once the examination system was announced, some people were happy and some were worried, and the candidates reacted violently. Some candidates even took the lead in protesting that His Majesty should not break the tradition. This move violated the ancestral system.

Faced with the doubts of scholars all over the world, Li Chengdao ignored them and said only one sentence: "The imperial examinations are allowed!"

As the saying goes, scholars rebel and talk about wars on paper. After these literati have been criticized for a while, they still have to take the exam. After all, as the saying goes, if you learn literary and martial arts, you can sell them to the emperor's family. After all, the real consumer is the emperor, and the initiative is always in the hands of the emperor. In the hands of the rich and powerful.

In this way, the exam started as scheduled, but no one knew about the admission criteria except Li Chengdao and Kong Ming.It is said that this year's examination questions were issued by His Majesty himself, and it is said that His Majesty the Emperor specially set up some kind of examination committee to be responsible for marking the papers after the examination.

The three days of the imperial examination were very lively. Scholars from all over the world gathered in Chang'an, and the streets of Chang'an were overcrowded.

Rich scholars choose to live in our big shop, while poor scholars either live with others or hang out on the streets, spending half of their lives just for one day.

The exam has been going smoothly, but on the last day, something unexpected happened. The scholar Kong Yunzhi lived in Shandong. It is said that he was related to Master Kong and was quite famous in his hometown for his talents.His teacher once praised him, saying that although Kong Yunzhi was only in his early twenties, his eight-legged essay was so sophisticated that he would definitely not be ranked among the top three in the scientific examination!
When the news of the opening of Enke came out, Kong Yunzhi was also ecstatic and full of confidence, but after arriving in Chang'an, he realized that this year's scientific examination was different from the past. It no longer focused on stereotyped essays. In the name of the emperor, he called on scholars from all over the world to protest.It's a pity that scholars are only scholars after all. In the face of the absolute rights of those in power, the voices of protest are almost

Almost negligible.

Kong Yunzhi is proud and arrogant, but with his own strength, he is like a mantis holding a cart, but with the backbone of a scholar, Kong Yunzhi refused to take the exams for every subject.

In a blink of an eye, it was the last day of the scientific examination. Kong Yunzhi watched the other scholars who had chatted with him freely and loudly opposed the reform of the imperial examinations go out to take the examination. One of them was very depressed and decided to go for a walk.

Kong Yunzhi was walking on the street. At this moment, a young man came over, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Oh, isn't this Mr. Kong?"

"Who is this dear friend?"

Looking at the unfamiliar face in front of him, Kong Yunzhi thought about it carefully for a long time, but he could not find the name of such a face in his mind.
