Chapter Seventy-Eighth
What Wang Jinghui thought of at this time was the staff system, one of the three major winning weapons of the German army. In Wang Jinghui's eyes, this system not only partially solved the problem of "generals do not know the soldiers and soldiers do not know the generals" in the current army of the Song Dynasty, but the most important thing was to prevent the "eunuch supervisors" that appeared in the Ming Dynasty in history. This is what Wang Jinghui valued. Although eunuchs were used as military supervisors in any dynasty in Chinese history, it was carried forward in the hands of eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty and became an important reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
In Wang Jinghui's impression, the most famous eunuchs in the Song Dynasty was Li Xian of this period. However, Li Xian's level was much better than his peers in the Ming Dynasty, but this was also a bad omen. It is hard to guarantee that the eunuchs and military supervisors like the Ming Dynasty would not appear in the future. Although Li Xian was a very good military supervisor in history, Wang Jinghui also wanted to take this opportunity to kill the eunuchs and military supervisors who had begun to rise in the Song Dynasty in the cradle. I am afraid that once this staff system was released, Li Xian would never have the opportunity to be a military supervisor in his life.
Wang Jinghui pondered for a long time and said, "Did Your Highness remember the sand table dedicated to Han Xiang?"
Zhao Xu didn't know why Wang Jinghui suddenly raised the sand table, but he nodded and said, "Remember, although this thing is simple, the set of sand tables placed in the palace make people see the form of the border. At present, the soldiers from the frontier came to the palace to provide terrain for craftsmen, and there were also many sand tables made. In addition to the terrain of the 500-mile radius of Bian Capital, there were also sand tables in Qin, Feng, Jingyuan and Dashun City near Xixia. The terrain bordering the Liao Kingdom has not been presented yet, so the progress has been slower. If you change it, why did you suddenly ask about the sand table?"
Wang Jinghui smiled and said, "Your Highness. Since there is a sand table, you must have someone who can understand and use the sand table! Your Highness may think that such people are easy to find, and everyone in the temple can do it. But I think that such people have extremely harsh conditions, and that this sand table is not something that any minister can play around with! Those who can use the sand table must have geography, know the enemy and our military situation, and have high military talents. Only such people can use the sand table well based on the military situation they reacted to and explain the enemy and our military situation to the Lord and the Minister, so that the Lord and the Minister will not make wrong judgments. Your Highness said that such people are easy to find?"
After hearing this, King Zhao Xu of Ying lowered his head and thought for a while and said, "Change it. It's really hard to find civil and military officials in the court if you look for such a person... Could it be... Could it be that Guo Kui is suitable for such a position? But is this a bit of a lack of talent?"
Wang Jinghui smiled and said, "Your Highness, if you only use Lord Guo to explain the comparison of enemy-to-me power on the sand table, it will be a waste of talent. However, this is a very complicated matter and I will not be able to explain it clearly for a while. There may be omissions in a hurry. Please give me some time to think about it carefully. After I have thought it through thoroughly, I will write a policy for the Lord to refer to the Lord and His Highness and the ministers."
Although King Zhao Xu of Ying wanted to hear how Wang Jinghui solved the difficulties that generals like Di Qing and Guo Kui suffered from entering the court and becoming officials once and for all, he also knew that Wang Jinghui's idea of land was probably not as simple as he said. According to the past practice, his method would probably be the most effective. If Wang Jinghui could drag out the whole thing now, then his talent would be really terrible. He said it would take some time, and he should have an idea to repair it, which would make sense. However, what confused Zhao Xu was: Wang Jinghui just said that although there was a good solution, why was it inconvenient to implement it now?
After hearing Zhao Xu express this question in his heart, Wang Jinghui asked Zhao Xu: "If the emperor followed the memorials of these censors, then do you think the emperor would most likely arrange Lord Guo to be an official?"
Zhao Xu was shocked when he heard this. This question was too difficult. When Di Wuxiang was demoted to the capital, he became a local official. It is hard to say what kind of treatment Guo Kui could get.
Wang Jinghui smiled and said, "Does Your Highness remember the incident when Liangzuo of Xixia sent his envoy Wu Zong a few months ago? Then Wu Zong dared to speak rudely to my Song Dynasty, which shows that the emperor and his ministers of Xixia were already eyeing my border. Lord Sima said the memorial well, the people of Xixia will not give up the plunder of my border. This year, Xixia and our Song Dynasty will definitely meet each other, but it seems that the scale should not be large. I guessed the holy intention: If the emperor followed the memorials of those censors, it would be for the protection of Lord Guo.
The best place to settle down is Shaanxi Fourth Route, which should be the official position of Xuanfu Envoy. Moreover, Lord Guo is now one of the few good generals of my Song Dynasty, and he has some understanding of the weapons he presented in the past few days. It is estimated that he may make great achievements for me in Shaanxi Fourth Route. If nothing unexpected happens, Your Highness will hear the good news from the border of Xixia at the end of the year! So I think the emperor should give in to the censors at this time and let Lord Guo return to the border to shock the Western Xia. This is the best protection for Lord Guo!”
After Wang Jinghui's explanation, King Ying Zhao Xu immediately became enlightened, and he was even more impressed by Wang Jinghui's talent. Zhao Xu said very rationally: "Brother Wang will take the examination for the examination in a few days, and this policy is not in a hurry. You can do the exam first, I'll wait for you to take the examination in high school!"
Wang Jinghui said: "It's good. Anyway, there will be a big exam on the fourth day of next month. It will take only a few days. After I finish writing, I will send someone to the Ying Prince's Mansion. However, the strategy is just a suggestion. Whether you can get into the eyes of Your Highness will have to wait until you have read it!"
King Ying Zhao Xu laughed and said, "Brother Wang has never disappointed me. I wish Brother Wang can win the exam! I heard that the chief of the palace, Su Shi, Su Zizhan, is also here?"
Wang Jinghui said: "Brother Su's father, Mr. Su Xun, is suffering from tuberculosis and is curing his illness here. Now he is about to recover. Brother Zizhan has been taking care of Mr. Su here, and I have also benefited a lot."
Zhao Xu had long heard that the Su family and son lived here, and wanted to visit Su Xun. At the same time, he also gave Wang Jinghui and the princess of Shu Kingdom a chance to get along alone, so he asked Wang Jinghui to summon the housekeeper to take him to the Su family and son. Before leaving, Wang Jinghui specifically told Zhao Xu to pay attention to not spending too long with Su Xun. Although Su Xun's health improved, he still needed more rest and rest. After Zhao Xu nodded and found out, he followed the guide to the small courtyard where the Su family and son lived.
After Zhao Xu left, only Wang Jinghui and the Princess of Shu were left in the study. When Wang Jinghui gave advice to King Ying Zhao Xu just now, the princess of Shu was full of admiration when she heard it. She admired the perfect ability of her lover. Coupled with that talent, she was the image of a perfect partner in her heart. She was naturally happy.
Wang Jinghui didn't know that the princess of Shu was particularly fascinated by his confident image when analyzing the incident, otherwise he would bring Zhao Xu back and take another lesson to win the favor of the princess of Shu. He walked to the bookshelf and took a few small boxes and came to the princess of Shu. These were several chess and card games he specially found to please the princess of Shu.
How to date the princess of Shu Kingdom is a very difficult problem for Wang Jinghui, who has never been in love. Influenced by family education, Wang Jinghui is a very traditional person. Although he does not expect to be able to love each other like the 21st century, he just hopes for a peaceful, long and warm love, but he has never met before marriage in this era, let alone have any emotional exchanges between the two parties.
Due to his limited identity, Wang Jinghui could not pull her from the palace every day to indulge in the mountains and rivers. Even when we meet, we have to wait for the right opportunity to get what we want. This is really hard for two couples who are in miss. Wang Jinghui also hopes to be able to understand each other through the limited meeting of the princess of Shu to the greatest extent. In the past, there were only poetry and checkers as a link, which was something he could not satisfy, so he specially found someone to find someone to play the small chess and card games in his later generations, hoping to enhance the favor and understanding of both parties through these little things.
Wang Jinghui saw that the princess of Shu was a little confused by these small boxes. He smiled and explained: "The princess's daily life in the palace is really boring, and I can't visit the princess every day, so he made these little things, hoping to chat to relieve her boredom when the princess is bored. These are chess and card games similar to checkers, which are very simple and very interesting. Are the princess interested in playing?"
What else could the princess of Shu say at this time when Wang Jinghui was so considerate and careful? Her eyes, like bright moon, seemed to be fascinated by a layer of light. The grievances and boredom that she had suffered for many days were melted by Wang Jinghui's words. After Zhao Qianyu nodded slightly, she sat in front of the coffee table with Wang Jinghui and learned these small games.
These novel ways of fighting beasts, military flags, and playing cards in later generations quickly attracted the attention of the princess of Shu Kingdom. In addition, she was extremely smart, so she quickly learned how to play these chess and card games. This forced Wang Jinghui to sigh at the guidance of the "Love Saint" who was once in the same dormitory: to try every means to make girls happy. Looking at the Princess of Shu Kingdom with a smile, Wang Jinghui couldn't help but sigh that the proverb of Love Saint is really a killer in ancient and modern times.
Just as the two were having fun, the person who Wang Jinghui, the most disliked person Wang Jinghui, came back. Before Zhao Xu could enter the study, he heard the crisp and pleasant laughter of the princess of Shu Kingdom at the door. He admired Wang Jinghui's way of begging girls. As soon as he entered the door, he was startled by Wang Jinghui, who was covered with notes on his face. After asking carefully, he realized that Wang Jinghui and the princess of Shu Kingdom lost to his face. Zhao Xu couldn't help but smile: This talented man not only knows how to make weapons, but also proficient in this gadget that makes his daughter's family happy. This "erudition" is really surprising.
After taking the military flag made by Wang Jinghui, looking at the words "General of the Cavalry, General of the State, General of the State, General of the State, etc. on the chess, I was very confused. After explaining the gameplay of the princess of Shu, I also felt interesting and just made toys to play with it. This is the military flag transformed by Wang Jinghui. He used the titles of various military officers of this era to replace the name of the commander and commander, and used the big and small foods to eat, or to change the soup without changing the medicine.
Zhao Xu looked at his sister's happy smile, and there was no sadness next to the fish pond this morning. He was also impressed by Wang Jinghui's method of coaxing girls. Seeing that it was getting late, Zhao Xu got up and said goodbye, and took his sister Shu Princess to the palace. Wang Jinghui was still watching the reluctant princess of Shu get into the carriage, leaving, and silently said to the carriage that had disappeared at the end of the long street: "We will be together!"
After breaking up with the Shu princess in the imperial palace, King Zhao Xu asked the eunuch about the eunuch Yingzong Zhao Shu reviewing the memorial in Funing Hall, and asked the eunuch to lead him to meet the saint. After meeting Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu, King Zhao Xu of Yingzong Zhao Xu reported the discussion with Wang Jinghui in detail to Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu. After hearing this, Zhao Shu pondered for a long time.
After a while of silence, Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu said, "Wang Jinghui is really a perfect person, quite like the Marquis of Wu in the past. Even I can think of Guo Kui's arrangements in my heart, which is amazing! But what you said just now, Wang Jinghui believes that Guo Kui must not stay in Biandu this time?"
King Zhao Xu of Ying said, "Wang Jinghui's meaning is also the same, but what he thought of was to take advantage of Guo Kui's departure from the capital this time. He happened to be arranged to serve as the Xuanfu envoy on the Fourth Shaanxi Road in the confrontation with Xixia. In this way, there is a general who can be assured by the imperial court to guard the frontier. In addition, Guo Kui has a certain understanding of new weapons. Let him take these weapons together and be more confident in fighting the harassment of Xixia. I think after Wang Jinghui takes the final examination, he will submit the policy and the policy will be perfected. If the court sees it can be implemented, Guo Kui will accumulate military industry in the frontier and return to Biandu again to hold a new position. This position must have been established by Wang Jinghui's policy and to solve the suspicion of officials like Di Wuxiang and Guo Kui as soon as they enter the Shufu Palace."
Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu attached great importance to Wang Jinghui's policy theory this time. Because the legal system set by his ancestors was to suppress military generals, too many people fell into the Privy Council. The most regrettable ending was that Di Wuxiang in the Renzong era, who was exiled and died of depression. Guo Kui's current situation was already good compared to Di Wuxiang at that time. If Wang Jinghui's policy theory could enable Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu to successfully solve this deadlock that plagued the civil and military officials of the Song Dynasty for a hundred years, then that's the merit.
It is conceivable that even Zhao Shu would thank him. Di Wuxiang's experience not only made everyone in danger of military officials, but also the civil servants were very regretful. After Emperor Renzong learned the final outcome, he regretted it until his death. Zhao Shu, who was still a prince at that time, was also sighing at this. Since becoming emperor, he also hoped that such a thing would not happen to him. As a result, he appreciated and promoted Guo Kui, but he still went on the old path. How could this make him not worry about it?
After a long time, Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu said silently: "There will be a big exam in seven days. It depends on the performance of this talented man. I hope he will not let me down..." Zhao Xu, the king of Ying next to him, was stunned when he heard it clearly, and then he was happy for his sister, Princess Shu. He couldn't help but look forward to the examination of the examination in the museum in a few days.
On the sixth day of the third month of the third year of Zhiping of the Song Dynasty, the first examination for the examination of the examination in three years since Emperor Yingzong Zhao Shu succeeded to the throne was finally launched. As early as last year, the news of the examination of the examination of the examination had spread to the whole country. The scholars who believed that they were talented from all over the country gathered from all over the country to Biandu, and finally waited for this day.
The examination is also called the examination subject, which is commonly called the major or virtuous. The examination subject is very selected and must be held until the emperor issued an edict. The specific subjects and the examination time are not fixed, and there are many changes. The qualifications of the candidates are not limited at the beginning, and current officials and ordinary scholars can take the exam and are allowed to recommend themselves. After that, the restrictions gradually increase, and self-recommendation is changed to the recommendation of the officials and ministers; commoners must be reviewed by local officials; before the imperial examination, the "geography test" is added, and the examination venue is in the secret hall, and the passing of the examination is more stringent: one test policy, more than three thousand words, completed on the same day. The examination score is five levels, and the second level has never been given a person, and the third level is equivalent to the first place in the Jinshi. All officials are promoted or promoted. The examination subject is very selected, but it provides scholars with an important opportunity to enter the official position.
On the sixth day of the lunar month, Wang Jinghui had finished his clothes and set off to the Secret Pavilion to take the exam with his pen, ink, paper and ink for the exam. He is now fully prepared and cannot be more fully prepared. Today, he took the "Pass Pavilion" exam first in the Secret Pavilion. The questions are the same as those in the Jinshi class, and they are all poems, ink meanings and scriptures. This exam is simply no difficulty for Wang Jinghui. After reading the questions, he used a brush to answer the answer sheet with a dragon flying and phoenix.
In Wang Jinghui's eyes, the Mo Yi Jing Tie looked more like the short answer questions and fill-in-the-blank questions from later generations: Confucius' words in "The Analects of Confucius" "The authors are seven people", and the test was the name of these "seven people". Such questions are simply a piece of cake for Wang Jinghui who can recite the book upside down. However, the answer sheet of the poetry project made him hesitate for a long time: Three Kingdoms. I don't know what the purpose is, but the test paper requires that the lyrics cannot be used in water tunes, which reminded Wang Jinghui of a sentence that Su Shi once said to him: "If you change it, you don't have to consider the lyrics anymore. When will the bright moon come to you? It's impossible for the examiner to make this question..."
Wang Jinghui looked at the test paper with a wry smile and thought: Su Zizhan really won the misfortune. But what made him even more embarrassed was that the poem title was the Three Kingdoms. This title is really tricky. After thinking about it, Su Shi's poem "The River Gos East" is the most suitable topic, but it was his former forbidden zone. Because he wanted to leave this masterpiece that has been famous throughout the ages, he was the first person in Song Dynasty. So seeing this title made him embarrassed.
