The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

Liu Guifei heard a smile on her face, and said happily: "Although Qing Shui is stubborn, his respect for the officials is not empty."

Zhao Ji was also very happy, and said with a smile: "I have heard about this idea a long time ago, and I like it very much, but I don't know if it will waste money and people?"

Waste of time and money?Is this what you, Zhao Ji, are thinking about?The Genyue and Granite you made made a well-off and wealthy empire full of rebellious people everywhere.The prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River has turned into scorched earth.If you are afraid of spending money on a football league now, ghosts know how frightening it is to make a profit.

"Your Majesty is worrying too much. Not only will this move not waste people's money, but it will also increase a large amount of income for the court."

Zhao Ji's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he pointed to Yang Lin and said, "Is this still profitable? Tell me carefully."

Chapter 33 manual beams

The emperor of the Zhao family had an extraordinary bearing, if he were an idle prince, it would not be difficult for him to be famous forever with his calligraphy and painting talent.

He was sitting at the top right now, with the demeanor and self-confidence of a nobleman cultivated since he was a child, which was really heart-wrenching.

Yang Lin snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "Let me tell you the officials, if the Cuju League is opened, it will definitely attract Bianliang people to watch the game. The imperial court can allow each team to charge their own viewing fees for Feed your own team.

And once the game starts, it will inevitably drive other industries, such as team clothing, venue repairs, and props production. This will undoubtedly bring business opportunities to the people of Bianliang and give them another way to make money.

Thirdly, the grassroots dared to suggest that the final leader of each year, the team that wins the first place, can get the calligraphy and painting bestowed by the government, so that they can rely on it as a family heirloom!In this way, the imperial court can run the Cuju League without spending a penny. "

Zhao Ji was very amused and kept clapping his hands. As an emperor, he didn't just think about enjoying himself from the beginning.If you can get a good reputation and satisfy your own interests, that's the best.

Song Dynasty's entertainment activities are not lacking, but there are not many such interesting ones, and the Cuju League has scratched Zhao Ji's itch.

Yang Lin is complacent, but what he doesn't know is that there was a more interesting sport a few years ago, that is women's sumo wrestling.

Beautiful women with no shirts on, beat each other, very beautiful.Even the concubines and maids in the palace often come to play a few times. It was very popular in the Song Dynasty, but it was a pity that it was banned by Sima Guang, a stupid bird.It's a pity that he wasn't the one who fell into the tank back then. It's a big disaster that this person didn't drown.That's not all the shit he did, and it was all ridiculous.First of all, Sima Guang and Wang Anshi were very good friends at first, but because of different opinions on politics, it eventually led to a dispute of sentiments. I will oppose as long as you agree with it, and I will agree with it as long as you oppose it. , I will attack anyone you recommend, causing the Song Dynasty to be in a mess and party disputes continue.

The second is that after Sima Guang became the prime minister, he would voluntarily return all the land that the soldiers had worked so hard to conquer to Xixia. The reason was that it would be so easy for Xixia to send troops to ask for it. Return the Xixia land and avoid war.You must know that the Dangxiang people in Xixia were originally the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and the land in the northwest was all Song soil.

Now this group of Neo-Confucianists have almost canceled the entertainment activities of the monarchs and the people. Yang Lin's Cuju League is first of all the dry rain, to relieve the boredom of the restless Song people.It is conceivable that this is bound to be a carnival for the whole people.

Zhao Ji was overjoyed, the smile on his face never stopped, and his heart was itchy, he couldn't help but start this Cuju League right away.

"Yang Lin, since it's your idea, I'll leave this matter to you, can you handle it well?"

When Yang Lin heard this, his heart skipped a beat, it's broken, he must not take this matter on himself.Don't say that I have a serious academic background, and I will soon get the most valuable fame in the Song Dynasty. Who has the leisure to do this jester's work.Besides, if I really took it, those jesters Yang Jian, Tong Guan, etc., wouldn't hate me to death.

"There are orders from the government, and Caomin didn't dare to disobey, but Caomin is a tribute student in Yangzhou, and the spring is coming soon, so he has to review his homework, but Caomin has an excellent candidate recommendation."

When Zhao Ji heard this, he immediately understood that this person was Jieyuan from Yangzhou, and he didn't want to do this, so he smiled and said: "Oh, who is it, let me hear it."

"Far in the sky, close in front of your eyes, this is my brother Qing Shui."

Liu Qingshui used to enjoy listening to the opera, but when he heard this, he became excited and gave Yang Lin a big thumbs-up, without making a sound, he just said with his lips: "It's interesting."

Concubine Liu Gui was overjoyed at first, then took a breath, and said eagerly: "Qingshui, can he know, can he do it well, don't miss the official business."

Liu Qingshui's straight chest bent down in an instant, and he was dejected and silent.

Yang Lin said with a smile: "Qingshui is young, and he may not be thorough in his work. You can ask Yang Jian, Eunuch Yang, to assist him."

Concubine Liu Gui was heartbroken, all the concubines in the palace had strong backing, saving her from a poor background, not to mention no help at all, and she had to be distracted from time to time to help her natal family outside.If the younger brother can really do this, he will be rewarded, which will relieve his pressure.

She has a delicate mind, and she doesn't expressly fight for her younger brother, but she just looks at Zhao Ji pitifully with a pair of eyes.

The beauty's eyes can speak, Zhao Ji's love has long since melted, and he quickly patted the back of her fair hand and said softly, "That's how it is done."

Concubine Liu Gui was worried about her younger brother's failure, so she asked: "Yang Lin, since you are Qing Shui's friend and you came up with this matter, you can help him more. If you have anything to do, ask someone to send me a message. It’s good that the palace on the ground can help you, let’s help the officials to get this matter done.”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Yang Lin dares to do his best."

------

Time flies, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the spring is coming in a blink of an eye.

During this period of time, there were two major events in Bianliang, Tokyo that people talked about. One was that a Changle building was built in Bianliang. In the building, there was an oiran girl named Ning'er.

Scholars in the market are all admiring, like some sad and euphemistic words of "searching and searching, deserted, desolate and miserable";

The bold and unrestrained poetry of "Looking at the sword with the lamp on while drunk, dreaming back to the camp with horn blowing";

"If life is just like the first time you see it, what is the autumn wind and the sad painting fan?" The tenderness is like water;

They are all written by the girl Ning'er, and people can't help but sigh that Su Dongpo, who died just a while ago in Song Yichao, has this talent.

For a while, Ning'er's talent and fame spread all over the sky, not only dignitaries, famous scholars and talented scholars wanted to see her beauty, but even many daughters of boudoirs wanted to see her because they loved these poems.

The youths in Wuling are quarreling with each other, so many children from the Bianliang family spend a lot of money to meet the beauty, but they have rules, they only see one guest a day, and they have to be famous people who can talk about poetry with her.

Those who were lucky enough to see her beauty all admired her when she came out, Miss Ning'er is elegant and dignified, her manner and conversation make people feel like a spring breeze, and her appearance is even more beautiful.

In addition to Ninger, the second thing that caused a sensation in Bianliang was the opening of the Cuju League. Different from the high-end route taken by Ninger, the Cuju League can be said to be a grand event for the participation of all people.

On the land where every inch of land and every inch of gold is in Bianliang City, many venues have been built. Cuju masters from all over the Song Dynasty gathered in Bianliang, ready to compete.

And the instigator of all this was walking into the examination room of the provincial examination, shaking a bone fan.

Carp jumping over the Dragon Gate, this is the Dragon Gate of the Song Dynasty, and countless small carp are ready to go.

Chapter 34 Provincial Exam

The streets in front of the Da Song Gongyuan were full of Gong students who came to rush for the exam, most of whom carried a square book on their backs.

Yang Lin looked very special, with a bone fan stuck around his neck, with his hands behind his back, he walked leisurely forward.

Jin'er next to her was carrying a book on her back, her slender waist was arched, and she wiped the sweat from her forehead from time to time.

The little girl knew very well that her young master basically didn't study, and was eating, drinking and having fun every day, or following that Liu Qingshui in the Cuju league, a trace of sadness flashed across her tired, red face, and she sighed: "Master, you must go to high school." .”

"Don't make any noise." Yang Lin wasn't worried at all, and was even a little relaxed. He wanted to observe the provincial exam that the whole country was concerned about.

The imperial examinations in the Song Dynasty were considered normal from the beginning, but later, in order to implement the policy of governing the country with literature over military, it began to frantically expand enrollment.

In other dynasties, more than a dozen Jinshi were admitted in one subject. In the Song Dynasty, there are only three hundred people in one subject at every turn, which is very lively.

A relational account like myself, isn't it?Where is Cai Jing's old face?

Cai Jing is worthy of being a treacherous official who is rare in a thousand years. He was promoted to the chief prime minister in less than a year after being transferred to the position of prime minister.

Everyone in the world was shocked by his climbing speed, but Yang Lin was not surprised at all. He knew that Cai Jing would break many official records of the Song Dynasty in the future.

In the Song Dynasty, most of the time when he was prime minister was two or three years, and Cai Jing worked for 17 years. How could he not have two brushes.

When he arrived at the gate of the Gongyuan, Yang Lin took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the library, and a figure with his feet up next to him saw him, smiled and stepped forward to put his arms around his shoulders: "Da Lang, why are you here?"

Yang Lin saw that it was Qin Hui, his school friend, and couldn't help laughing, "When did you arrive?"
