Royal Road

Chapter 325 Lu Ming

The department has been in Bingzhou for two years, and an unknown number of officials have been selected. But it was the first time that a special banquet was held. This is not the kind of amusement with some appraisal of the Shangsi banquet. It’s just that the princess presides over this article personally, which has extraordinary significance.

Why do you have a banquet at this time? The first thing everyone thinks of is the 20 children from the family. Regardless of whether it is Shuzong or Xiaozhi, there is a world of difference between aristocratic family and general family. Is this a signal given by the Provincial Government? Can the system become a way of promotion beyond the 9th rank?

There are different opinions, but the most excited are the scholars on the list. Nowadays, it is the governor of the three states who live in the governor’s house, the Shangdang county who worships the general and the great Sima! If you can get Liangjun Gong’s blue eyes, will you still worry about the official journey?

Everyone tried their best, hoping to make a blockbuster. So on the day of the banquet, there is no shortage of costumes, whitewashes, and flower hairpins. In the warm winter sun, the newly dressed scholars, following the footsteps of the priests and officials, respectfully entered the courtyard of the governor’s house.

The contemporary courtyard pays attention to the scenery of the four seasons. However, the winter is bleak, which can best reveal the character and elegance. In this other courtyard, there is no color of decadence, with flowers and trees hidden by trees, scattered pavilions, and the grandeur of a state government, which is even more heartbreaking.

However, no one is here to appreciate the scenery. When the five o’clock black clothes, fake gold medal purple ribbon, and the three Liang Jinxian crown, Liang Gong slowly entered the table. Everyone should kneel down.

Liang Feng returned the courtesy and asked everyone to get up and sit down. Afterwards, both sides played the sheng with music and drums.

With the music, many people are happy. This is clearly the chapter of “Lu Ming” in “Xiaoya”. “Deer Ming” was originally a song by the jun banquet and the officials, and it is also quoted in Wei Wu’s “Dan Ge Xing”. Doesn’t it represent the thirsty thought of the county government?

Sure enough, stop singing, start singing.

“Yoyou Luming, Shiyezhiping. I have guests, and I will play the Sheng. Playing the Sheng, Drumming, and the basket are the generals. I am a good person, and show me that I will walk around.

The ceremonial officer’s song settled, and Liang Feng smiled and raised the cup in his hand. This is the host offering guests, and also the king offering ministers. In addition to solemnity, there is no lack of joy, which makes people feel refreshed. Those aristocratic children are okay, the poor clan scholar, who has seen this before? Everyone’s tears filled their eyelashes, and when they looked at the Pian Pian prince above, he felt that he was drunk without alcohol, and he quickly responded according to courtesy.

The song starts again, and the Lord offers it again. In the case of three rounds, the atmosphere was still slightly tense, and he completely relaxed. After finishing the banquet ceremony, Liang Feng smiled and said: “It’s really a lonely blessing to recruit scholars in this field. It is really a lonely blessing. If they are all promoted officials, isn’t it a big tool and a small use? Therefore, the lonely Ming Jing is the top three, Entering the house is a shame.”

As soon as this word came out, there was a commotion underneath that could not restrain it. A total of 64 people were selected for the three subjects this time. Among them, ten are in mathematics, four are in medicine, and the remaining fifty are all in jing. Mathematics and medical sciences will inevitably be officials, and scholars of Mingjing are the candidates for future officials.

And choosing the top three from the Ming Scriptures is to give an official position. Moreover, it is an important position next to the princess! In the eyes of the world, officials distinguish turbidity, but what is turbidity and turbidity? To put it bluntly, only positions close to the side of the emperor are worthy of attention. If it is a high-ranking official with few things, it is even more popular.

But now, the imperial examination in Binzhou is to select officials for Liang Jungong. Where is the best position? Naturally by the side of Mr. Liang! Entering the mansion is a shame, it can be said to be a step up to the sky. Not to mention the poor family, it is also a good thing for those gentry who are cruel to participate in the system of disciplines!

The gentry are delighted, and the poor are even more mad. Among the top three of Ming Jing this time, there is a poor fellow! Doesn’t this mean that the poor can also pass the system and become officials directly?

The face was flushed red, and the poor fellow went out with the two senior fellows, and thanked the county public for their kindness.

Liang Feng’s words have not yet been finished: “In addition to the top three, the top ten, you can also go to the assigned state and county to receive a title. The kings are the talents selected by the system, and they should be loyal to the court and not miss the life. learn.”

Now there are more people going out. Decentralizing states and counties will never give only a position to a small official. This is the top ten in a subject, and all of them can be officials!

The high school students who will come to participate in the manufacturing department don’t care about the clear and turbid currents. Even if the nine products are evaluated, they may not be the top grade. It is best to be a magistrate in a state or county. And Liang Jungong gave them the best place they could reach. This is probably something the current court cannot do. Not to mention Bingzhou, even if you go to Sizhou or Jizhou, it is far better than defending Jianye, or being an official in troubled times, and drifting away!

Looking at the faces of all people with different expressions and surprises. Liang Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After this banquet is over, will the departmental system be a pure selection of officials? I’m afraid no one would think so. But so many gentry tend to follow and give them official positions instead of being relegated to officials. No one can fault it. Once the opening is opened, it is not so easy to stop it.

The right time, the right place and the right people, and the convergence of various factors can enable him to achieve his goal one step in advance.

And this small change, even the Yangzhou court, could not stop it. As long as he has the final say in the three northern states, this system will continue for a long time. Until a larger site, more talents, all in your pocket!

Perhaps, we can consider martial arts.

Sitting in a high position, Liang Feng, with a constant smile, watched the officials drinking and composing poems in order to show off his talents in order to win his favor. Isn’t this group of people the horse bones for their daughters?

That night, a few words at the Luming banquet spread throughout Jinyang. The family shook.

Everyone knows that discipline is an act of rights. But no one expected that Liang Gong could use these methods to make the system leap forward and compete with the nine-pin system. Should I take or not participate in such an unidentified exam? If you participate, what is the face of the gentry? If not? Is it possible to let the poor family take away the officials who should belong to them?

And the twenty aristocratic families who entered Wei have become the greatest weight that overwhelms balance. Eight of the top ten seats in the Ming Scriptures are occupied by aristocratic families! Even with such a crude examination method, the accumulation of nobles is far better than that of the poor. And the state has never abolished the recommendation system and the nine-pin system. The Chongwen Third Academy is still the world of gentry. That being the case, why not take another seat in the turbulent position of the system?

People’s hearts are changed because of the word benefit. And this little banquet also touched the eyes of many people.

But even so, there are still people who are like idle clouds and wild cranes, ignoring common affairs.

In the Xishan Grottoes, the craftsmen are still digging the rock wall endlessly. The jingle of bells echoed in the empty valley.

Standing in front of the Buddha statue that is more than two feet high and stretched out. The Health Association looked out from the railing, his body was like a rock, and the wind did not move. He has been in Xishan for half a month, but every day, he feels that new ideas flash.

Jiangdong also has Buddhist temples and statues. But has there ever been a grotto of this size? One cave and one Buddha, one cave and one scene, such as mustard seeds, constitute a magnificent Buddha country. Every Buddha has a different face; every painting tells the mantra of Buddhism.

This is not a mere monastery, which can be shown by thin murals. If this huge grotto is completed, how many people should worship it?

Compared with the scale, what makes the Health Association more concerned about is the carving technique of the Buddha statue. Most of these craftsmen come from various countries in the Western Regions, so the ornamentation and manners of the stone sculptures are different from those of China. But there is one thing that makes the Health Association extremely puzzled. Obviously, the big Buddha statues are all a face of Hu, why is the medicine master Liuliguang Tathagata in the main hall, such a soft and handsome face?

“Is it possible that this Buddha statue was really carved according to Duke Liang’s appearance?” Wei Xie couldn’t help muttering to herself.

This time, there was no answer behind him. On the contrary, Xun Min walked up quickly: “Master Wei, here comes Duke Liang!”

what? The Health Association was taken aback. He has been in Jinyang for a few days, but Jun Gong Liang has always been busy with the department and has never seen him. The Health Association was not in a hurry, and wanted to see all the grottoes in Xishan. I didn’t expect that the other party had never been summoned, but went to the door in person. Rao is that the National Health Association doesn’t care much about human relationships and sophistication, and is also nervous.

He quickly patted the dust on his body, and the Health Association said, “Why is Duke Liang here? Did you bring a follower?”

“No. Depending on the situation, it seems to come to Xishan to pay homage to the Buddha.” Xun Ming said in a low voice.

After hearing this, the Health Association somewhat relieved and followed the disciple outside. Because the grottoes have not yet been completed, and the supporting temples and altars have not been completed, there is no shelter from the outside, and the situation on the other side can be clear at a glance.

I saw a team of men and horses standing under the stairs. The number of people is small, far less than the number of people who should be accompanied by the county officials. However, there are a lot of people accompanying them with umbrella fans. However, with so many figures, the gaze of the Health Association was still firmly pinned by the two figures standing in the middle.

He looked at two people.

One is handsome, the other is heroic.

The Health Association has seen beauty. What he is best at is painting portraits. San Wu didn’t know how many families, and wanted to ask him to paint. Not to mention Wei Jie, the first-in-law of the Wei family, is famous all over the world, and is known as a jade person. However, the person I see today is different from Wei Jie. It’s not that the looks are really superior and inferior, but the temperament is very different.

Wei Jie is most famous than his comment on “Father-in-law Bingqing, Son-in-law Yurun” jointly called by Le Guang. The word “Yurun” is just right. The beauty of Wei Jie, like the zhilanyu tree, can be seen by others. It makes people fall in love with it, but it also attracts people to take care of it, and cannot bear to lose it.

The beauty of the person in front of you is totally different! Although there was a smile on his face, there was a look in his eyes that made people unpredictable. If the wind and thunder are moving on nine days, you will not be angry and prestigious. And that Gao Jue did not turn into coldness, just because he had a smile on the corners of his lips, like a Buddha holding flowers, soft and beautiful.

This combination of rigidity, softness and weirdness has become an unforgettable temperament. Even better, the wicked man standing beside him.

Although he has a high nose and deep eyes, Na Jiehu is not ugly in the eyes of the Health Association. The body is as straight as a sword, and his eyes are as sharp as electricity. Every inch of that person’s body shape reveals an unconquerable rigidity and coldness. However, when he looked at the person beside him, all the murderous blood was completely vanished. Only humble admiration.

Moving and static, it is almost like a scene in a painting. Rao was so knowledgeable and could not help being stunned on the spot.

The Health Association stood still, Xun Pan was a little anxious. How to say, Liang Jungong is also the lord of the three states, a prince of one party. The guard is so rude, what if he gets disgusted?

Bend anxiously, Xun Ming said: “Boy Xun Ming, see Duke Liang. Guardian, this is Duke Liang…”

He wanted to wake up Master calmly, but the Health Association only opened his mouth and spit out: “I thought about drawing something!”

These words were so rude to the extreme, Xun Tan couldn’t help but sweat in a hurry. Opposite Liang Feng saw the appearance of the Health Association, but he smiled: “What does Wei Jun want to paint?”

“The pharmacist Tathagata spreads all directions, attracting Nether Yasha to fall under his feet. The twelve generals, surrounded by their sides, the flame nets are solemn, and all sentient beings are bright.” Wei Xie murmured.

Pharmacist Buddha is Liang Feng’s current name. If someone else talks about it, he will probably think that the other party deliberately flattered. But in the face of the completely gagged and chaotic painting saint, he only smiled: “It sounds like a masterpiece.”

He did not say how magnificent this painting should be, and how many followers it could attract. It’s just an understatement, a phrase “passed on to the world.” Both hands of the Health Association shook: “This painting, I’m afraid it will be painted for a while…”

“The Huai’en Temple can wait, and so does the loneliness.” Liang Feng didn’t care.

“Thank you, Princess!” The Health Association was really impressed, and I wish I could draw what I thought on paper now. He has seen too many dignitaries, no matter how much he loves his paintings, he only regards him as a craftsman, just like his mentor, Cao Buxing. If it weren’t for the status of Wei’s offshoot, he would probably want to stay in the deep palace now and be used by the emperor.

But the Liang Jungong in front of him was completely different. He can hear the approval from the other party, and he can also feel the real respect. He respects his talents and respects his wishes. No arrogance, no arrogance. This is not the courtesy I can get in Jiangdong!

Liang Feng didn’t feel that what he did was so different. This is the National Health Association! Even Gu Kaizhi has to imitate and learn from the famous masters, and he is also the first figure to appear in the legend of “Don’t dare to touch your eyes”. “The ancient paintings are all negligible, and the harmony begins with the essence. Among the six methods, there is both good and good at the same time.” Can someone who can get such an evaluation be comparable to others?

Inviting the National Health Association to Jinyang, just to add more splendor to this ancient capital. Just like the huge Buddha cave in front of you.

To build a grotto is to pry out manpower from aristocratic families, to gather people’s beliefs, and to add their own prestige. But thousands of years later, all thoughts will turn into dust, and only this grotto can become an eternal cultural heritage that will last for generations.

This inheritance is also precious. Liang Feng didn’t mind, leaving more masterpieces of painting. This is much more wonderful than receiving it from aristocratic families and emperors.

Therefore, he just said: “I don’t know what Wei Jun can gain in the Buddhist cave? This Buddhist cave has not been completed yet, and it needs to be carefully polished. If you can get Wei Jun’s help, it will definitely be of great benefit.”

The Health Association was taken aback: “I don’t know what Liang Gong has insights?”

Liang Feng smiled: “Wei Jun, please come with me.”

The two of them didn’t pay much attention to their status and inferiority, so they headed towards the hall one after another. Behind him, Xun Zhen looked at the back of the two dumbfoundedly. A thought came to mind.

This Liang Gong is really a great master who is worthy of assistance! Should he also write home to persuade his father and brother?

The author has something to say: The Luming Banquet became a banquet stipulated in the imperial examination system after the Tang Dynasty.
