Chapter 158

At the beginning of June, Zhao Gou opened his way to the imperial examination of the scholars of the Song Dynasty. This time, in addition to examining the number one scholar of the senior high school, ranking first and exploring flowers, he also met with the top 100 scholars of the imperial examination in the royal garden. The third prince Zhao Yu and the crown prince selected the students of the imperial examination together.

In addition, the crown prince was responsible for the establishment of Juxian hall and the recruitment of a hundred talented scholars to build the foundation that Zhao and Song dynasties had seized.

Before Lingyun left Beijing, Zhao Gou suddenly said, "who is going to call Lingyun here? It happens that they are all young scholars. They have something to talk about."

Zhao Yu's eyes twitch slightly. The longer he contacts Ling Yun for the rest of his life, the more he can see. These two people underestimate Zhao song scholar for a long time. The rest of their life is better and they won't be too bold. But Ling Yun is different. This guy can really do everything. Let him come here. What is it?

"Father, Ling Yun is going to Qingquan County in a few days. He is training and running in at the moment. Don't you need him to do these things?" Zhao Yu suggested softly.

The second prince said, "Ling Yun and the rest of his life are well-known as" Zhenguo Shuangbi "in Zhao and Song dynasties. Many adults say that if they are given another ten years, they will surely become the pillar of Zhao and Song dynasties. Just by taking this as an example, we can make progress."

"Call over then." Zhao Gou said with a light smile that Lingyun's military training made him win fifty Liang silver. He was in a good mood. He was not a king jealous of the virtuous and the capable. In Lingyun's opinion, Zhao Gou was not only a petty man, but also a good man in other places. For those who sat in that position, suspicion and fear were inevitable.

If Zhao Gou doesn't listen to good advice, it will be difficult for him and the rest of his life to have real power. What Ling Yun is good at most is to throw himself in his favor.

Zhao Yu still wanted to stop him, but Zhao Gou stopped him. Zhao Yu had no choice but to take a breath. What can kill people most in the world is not the sword repaired by the sword, but the scholar's pen. Ling Yun told him that the scholar of Zhao and Song Dynasties is complacent when he does not write poetry. To open his mouth is to suppress the new knowledge, but he has never seen it, Live in their own world, a belly of ink in the dog's stomach.

He can fully imagine that today Ling Yun really has to face many scholars, and there may be a big fight.

Following Ling Yun's training, it's far from as easy as you think. Who knows that this young man who was born as a scholar is so decisive and ruthless.

Daily training makes them tired, but the money Ling Yun gets from the army and his own pocket. Their daily diet is medicated food, which has an excellent effect on making up for their own Qi and blood.

be extremely cruel and merciless!

This is their first impression of Lingyun!

he who has wealth speaks louder than others!

This is their second impression of Lingyun! Of course, they didn't know that general Yan Luoling, who trained them in the daytime, would take out the account book and wipe tears secretly in his room at night.

On the third day of June, Ling Yun was inserting an account book in his room. The lowest expenditure was 1000 gold. Looking at the account book, Ling Yun sighed: "it's still poor."

"General Ling, your majesty asked you to attend the taxi meeting in chunluyuan." Mr. Gao's voice came.

Ling Yun put away the account book, he asked: "ask me to come over?"

"Your Majesty's temporary intention, general, hurry up, don't let your majesty wait for a long time." Gao Gonggong said.

Ling Yun looked down at his armor and said with a smile, "let's go."

……

"I've been in the military camp these days. I don't know how the capital is doing?" Ling Yun asked.

Gao Gonggong said: "the envoys of the three dynasties are still here, and they are also in Chunlu garden at this time. However, the capital is calm, that is to say, there are some disturbances on the general's side, which are suppressed by his majesty."

"Someone impeached me to kill the twenty-seven soldiers?" Ling Yun said faintly, "except for a little contribution to the investigation, he made no contribution to Zhao and Song dynasties. He killed the meritorious people at will. He acted ruthlessly and domineering. He was young, and his means were cruel. Maybe all these are the reasons?"

"I just don't know whether it's the Minister of rites or the Minister of arms." Ling Yun said with a smile.

Gao Gonggong said with a smile: "all have, all have, so when the general goes here, he should pay more attention to his words and deeds."

"I'm afraid of those guys who have spent a lot of time holding the pen. I'm wearing 100 Jin armor. Are you afraid of them?" Ling Yun said with a smile, "by the way, father-in-law, didn't your majesty open the gathering hall? Can you lend me some Mohist children? "

"The general has to talk to his majesty about this. It's no use talking to the old slave." Mr. Gao shook his head and said that they got on the carriage. The carriage sank a little. Lingyun's armor was something he added to it. Although it was not heavy for him, training was also training himself. He couldn't command it at the beginning.

"Mr. Gao, you are your Majesty's servant. Your majesty always wants to listen to two words, right?" Ling Yun said with a smile, "and the Ministry of war and the Ministry of accounts also need to give me more money. I have to pay out of my own pocket. Now I even have to consider drinking a cup of tea."

Gao Gonggong smiles and doesn't answer. He can't say these things casually. Ling Yun's words and deeds are really pleasing. He doesn't want to look down on him as a eunuch.

"General Ling, don't embarrass the old slave," father-in-law Gao said awkwardly. "Even if the old slave wants to help the general fight for it, he has no strength."

Ling Yun scratched his chin and looked out of the window. "Your Majesty has given me such a big privilege. If you don't do something, you will let your majesty down."

Ling Yun said inexplicably, Gao Gonggong also did not know, so, just in this heart, always feel a little nervous.

In Chunlu court, Ling Yun goes in with his armor. Although Zhao and Song Dynasties attach importance to Literature and despise martial arts, the people in armor are not allowed to kneel down and worship. "I'll see your majesty."

Ling Yun only pays homage to Zhao Gou. He just nods to the two princes and ministers around him. Zhao Gou is quite satisfied with this. He is willing to be an isolated minister, loyal to him first, and then loyal to Zhao song.

"Ling Aiqing is coming. Sit down quickly," Zhao Gou pointed to the chair beside him. This is only the treatment of two princes. Ling Yun sat at the end of the chair. "How about the recent training?"

Ling Yun said helplessly: "the effect is good, that is, it costs a lot of money. It costs a lot of money to match them with medicated food to strengthen their health."

"You can keep an account of the money yourself," Zhao Gou said with a smile. "I'm a million lions of Zhao and Song dynasties. I can't give you all the expenses. I'll open a back door for you. You can keep 20% of the money you get from the war until you make up your own share."

"Hey, hey, I love that." Ling Yun grinned.

Qin Hui, Minister of the Ministry of war, said: "Your Majesty, when I heard that general Ling took office at the beginning, I beheaded 27 people, and then punished 10 people with fierce means. Although general Ling is young, I'm afraid it's not easy for him to take on this important task."

Zhao Gou browed slightly, and Ling Yun said faintly: "if Lord Qin doesn't talk about it, I almost forget that all the achievements of Zhao song's officers and men will be reported to the Ministry of war and then submitted to your majesty. All the 27 men killed friendly troops and pretended to be enemy soldiers in exchange for military achievements. Half of them had the bad deeds of robbing civilian women. If I had not had a right doctor's position, it would not be easy to do these things, I use them to build power. That's also the law of the Zhao and Song dynasties. "

It's a felony to lie about military merit!

They report to the higher authorities, but in the end they fail. Is this the fault of their superior generals? They've already reported it to the police, but your army Department has exposed it. What's wrong?

"Is that true?" Zhao Gou looks cold. Today, all the envoys of the three dynasties are here. Ling Yun's words are likely to bring disaster to Zhao song in the future. He can't be unaware of it. But at this time, he wants him to thoroughly investigate the Ministry of war.

Fortunately, the envoys of the three dynasties are not here at the moment. Otherwise, Ling Yun will be scolded at least, or even imprisoned.

Qin Hui was so scared that he knelt down on the ground and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, I don't know."

Ling Yun was closest to Zhao Yu and said to her in a low voice, "Your Highness, those people dare to do this. There must be support behind them, and there must be corruption in the army. Didn't your majesty just say that it's not easy to raise that million lions? Such a good opportunity can collect a lot of money to replenish the national treasury. "

"Ling Yun, what are you doing?" Zhao Gou cheered coldly.

Ling Yun waved his hand and said, "if there is nothing, what else can I do in front of your majesty? Your majesty asked me to come here today, didn't you meet my students of Zhao and Song Dynasties? What about people? "

This change of topic, is also in line with Zhao Gou's mind, "lied to report military achievements to the court again, all with me to come," Zhao Gou glanced at Lingyun, "you also come."

He meant to let Ling Yun be by his side, Zhao Yu and Zhao Gou were also by Zhao Gou's side, and Ling Yun was a little behind. Zhao Gou asked, "I've also heard about your military training, and I'm going to train an elite army?"

"My Lord, if Qingquan county is successful, then the army of Zhao and Song Dynasties will inevitably have friars in it, and the situation of national war will naturally change." Ling Yun didn't say much, and Zhao Gou didn't let Ling Yun go on. He didn't participate too much in the Qingquan County, because it was decided by Zhongzhou Academy. Most of the Confucianists and Legalists were in the lead, and the imperial court didn't participate too much. He just looked on.

However, Ling Yun's identity is different. He is not only a military general of the imperial court, but also a Confucian student. Mr. Zhu is behind him and can participate on behalf of the imperial court.

And this is originally from Ling Yun's hands, he wants to participate, of course, no one will not disagree.

"This year's imperial examination produced a lot of powerful people," Zhao said. "The classics, poems and so on, all answered very well."

Ling Yun stretched his waist and said with a smile, "what's the use of rote learning? The current situation has changed so much that the imperial examination questions haven't kept up with the current situation of Zhao and Song dynasties. Even if the answers are given, which position can you really do well?"

"And..." Ling Yun arched his hand to Zhao Gou, "Your Majesty, it's not that my ministers despise them. Just these scholars, regardless of their talents, are all men. They can take pen, even kill a chicken, which can be used as a fart. Take the Secretary of the Ministry of war just now for example, he is the Secretary of the Ministry of war, and he controls the army, but your majesty, you let him command the war, He will die as much as he can, and finally he will kneel down and beg for mercy. "

"It's no problem that we attach importance to Literature and despise martial arts in the four dynasties, but your majesty, if you look at those crooked melons and cracked dates, you can write some erotic words to make girls happy, or they are people who fish for fame and reputation. They are used in our court. Isn't that a waste of space?" As soon as Ling Yun said it, he didn't stop it on purpose. Zhao Gou's policy of valuing culture over martial arts is wrong. The civil and martial arts of the imperial court are the root of peace and power.

Zhao Yu coughed twice, and Ling Yun seemed to react. He quickly shut up and didn't speak. Zhao Gou's tone was a little bit light, "then you should say, how to select talents?"

"Confucian scholar, gentleman six arts, indispensable," Ling Yun said in a deep voice, "scholar is also a man, how can't bow archery, go to battle to kill the enemy? I dare not say that if I can rob you, but your majesty, look... "

Zhao Gou coldly looks at Ling Yun. Ling Yun quickly lowers his head. He doesn't like Zhao gousu. He just plays on the occasion. What he said just now has touched Zhao Gou's scales. However, Ling Yun thinks it doesn't matter. Anyway, he is loyal to his ears. You don't want to listen to him. After going to Qingquan County, the situation in the capital is also under my control. He doesn't want to go back to the capital until he takes power.
