Chapter 118: Two Years Later


In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.Before Xiong Yan returned to the capital, it hadn't been the New Year.But when I left the capital at this moment, it was already a year later.And within this month, there are also changes.Just two days earlier, the imperial court had secretly organized a special printing department.It is said that the purpose of this department was to print books from all over the world and form a large library.It is estimated that it will be necessary to wait until all parts of the country, every county and even the county seat, have built a large library, and when the branch of this printing department is formed in the county or even the county, will the movable type printing technology be made public in one fell swoop.At that time, even if all the engraving craftsmen in the country went on strike collectively and refused to continue printing, it would not be harmful.Thinking of this, Xiong Yan also had to admit that the imperial court was really stable enough.Although this time it may take a little longer, maybe two years, maybe three or five years, but once the layout is over and the printing press is announced, all this will definitely be the trend of the times and unstoppable.Even, during the preparation time of these two or three years, the imperial court can also quietly sell books at a reduced price and take the opportunity to make a lot of money.Thinking of this, Xiong Yan smiled and shook his head, and his perception of the imperial court has changed again.......

"Oak, go, today is the day we leave." ”"Okay, Your Highness, the salutes have been packed, and when I go back, I still take the rail car and the box.""

Your Highness, come on, in order to restore our identity as soon as possible, we have to work harder than before."

Looking at Oak Flower, who stretched out his right hand and clenched it into a small fist to cheer himself up, Xiong Yan only felt a little regretful for a while, regretting that Oak Flower had stayed with his mother for so long.The little Lori who was finally cultivated has only been taught for a month, what have you been taught?"

Uh-huh, work hard."

While nodding yes, he quietly changed the subject.Before entering the rail car, looking at Luoyang in the distance, looking at the faintly visible humane dragon qi in the sky above Luoyang, Xiong Yan sighed and left.One day, when I return, I will not leave again, but will go straight to that palace and become the master of the entire empire.…… Spring goes to autumn, flowers bloom, time flies, and soon most of the year has passed, and in a blink of an eye, it is the autumn of the second year.To be precise, this is the fourth year that Xiong Yan has left the palace.At the age of twelve, Xiong Yan left the palace, concealed his identity, and came to Xiongjia Village in Gu County.In the autumn of that year, I participated in the children's examination, and in the spring of the following year, I participated in the talent examination.In the summer of the following year, he became the village chief of Hujia Village, and then begged for rain and found that the thief was named Yichengzi.During the Chinese New Year the following year, Xiong Yan returned to the palace and recommended a new version of movable type printing to his father Xiong Chang.Today, it is the autumn of the fourth year, as early as the summer, Xiong Yan stepped down from the post of head of Hujia Village, returned to the Viscount's Mansion, and began to prepare for the examination for the lifting of people this autumn.Recalling these histories, Xiong Yan found that he was fifteen years old unconsciously.Before leaving the palace at the age of twelve, he was a child, and even his hairstyle was a child's pigtail......

But today, when he looked in the mirror, Xiong Yan saw a young man with a lofty spirit and a decent figure."

Oak, who is this?

Why is it so good-looking?

Are you catching up with me?

”Xiong Yan pointed to the mirror, looked at the oak standing behind him, and asked with a smile.Hearing this, Oak Hua shook her head helplessly, Your Highness is good at everything, but sometimes he always likes to make some jokes, some mentally retarded."

Yes, this person is very temperamental, he looks very good-looking, he looks better than Pan An, no, he looks better than Pan An, a Song Yu......"

Pan An and Song Yu are both famous beautiful men in history.Oak compared Xiong Yan with them, which made Xiong Yan instantly remember a sentence: I am familiar with Xu Gong in the north of the city?"

Ahem, you're overdoing that.I'm not that good-looking, but it's just a little bit worse than Pan An and Song Yu. ”As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and gestured with his thumb and index finger.After playing around for a while, Xiong Yan took advantage of her, and Oak was not surprised, she had been used to it for so many years.Moreover, she has long seen through Xiong Yan.has a thief's heart, no thief's courage, and he has been ready to sacrifice himself several times, but Xiong Yan retreated.Really, I really don't know what to say."

By the way, Your Highness, have you prepared like this?

Can you get a full score in this lifting test?

”"Not necessarily, this time it's really not necessarily, although several Hanlin bachelors have said that my cultural level at the moment is no less than that of the top three jinshi, but I am still not sure whether I can get a full score in the test."

In Da Chu, after passing the test for children, you can solve the problem of personal food and clothing, eat meat every day in the second half of your life, and live a rich life, no problem.And Xiucai test, once passed, become Xiucai, that is the official master.With Xiucai's net worth, he can not only change his own fate, but also the fate of his family.Even, I myself have the capital to go to cultivate, even if I am just in a state of beginners, at least I am refreshed, my mental power is highly concentrated, my body is healthy, and I can still do it without committing minor illnesses.And lifting people, it's even more remarkable.Once you are selected in the exam, as long as you don't make big mistakes in the future, you can at least become a county magistrate.The county order of Da Chu is different from that of the previous dynasty.A county in Dachu has a population of more than 100,000 people, and a large number of people have a population of hundreds of thousands.With such a population, it is almost the same as a small county at the time of the previous dynasty.The name of Bailihou is well deserved.Moreover, once you become the county commander, you can get a certain degree of luck blessing from the county, and when you are old in your life, how can you cultivate to the second-order innate realm.Similarly, the position of county magistrate is also the key to the connection between the upper and lower levels of the imperial court.Most of the officials above the county order are high-ranking officials, and they have little contact with ordinary people, even low-level officials.Under the county order, they are all petty officials and officials, and any official can determine the level of people's daily life, and even whether they are bankrupt.Connecting the previous and the next, it is the county order.Therefore, Da Chu's attention to the county order is unprecedented.In the same way, these values are also experienced in the imperial examination.In the children's exam, as long as you are literate, as long as your intelligence is normal, and you study hard for a period of time, you will definitely be able to pass the exam.The show talent test requires genius, plus hard work, and a very healthy body, to have a certain chance of being admitted.And to raise a person to take the exam, you must be a monk, otherwise, you will not be qualified for the exam.This alone has decided that not all talents can participate in the lifting exam."

In addition to a large number of objective questions, there have been subjective questions.It's a policy theory, and whether the full score error is too big is not something I can decide. ”However, although he said so, judging from Xiong Yan's expression, he was still very sure.()
