Chapter 1431 Gentle Township
"I like this girl Ling'er very much. She doesn't seem to have grown up barbaric at all. She is as polite and sensible as a famous lady."
Today Qingluan brought her children to the palace to pay homage to Queen Cui Yingying and others.
Ling'er left a deep impression on her. She was good-looking, very good at speaking, and she was so insightful in her words. While she was happy, Thirteen Niang gave Ling'er a lot of rewards.
"This girl is indeed independent. She will come back to recruit a husband and she must be a talented man who can be civil and military. Please help me see which noble family is so suitable."
Cui Yingying thought for a while, "Why choose one from the new Jinshi? The imperial examination will be held soon. Then, a hero from the new Jinshi."
This year is the first year of the rejuvenation of the empire, so the imperial examination will also be held this year.
The new imperial examination is one subject in three years, and each subject is admitted to 500 Jinshi. However, in recent years, I have often been admitted to the imperial examination for various reasons, and sometimes I will not be able to increase the number of Jinshi admissions. Jinshi is indeed not very strange now.
However, the value of Jinshi is still very high. Compared with those students who entered the Imperial College or the Imperial College, scholars who were from Jinshi are often considered the most correct way. Although they often have to start from the bottom, their promotion speed is the fastest.
Ten years after becoming a Jinshi, he can basically serve as the official seal official of a county.
Now every imperial examination is a lively event in the whole country, and scholars are proud to pass the imperial examination. Even if many people have entered the government office and become officials, they often have to take leave to take the exam during the imperial examination.
The court treated these people equally.
If you pass the Jinshi exam, you will definitely be able to use it in other ways.
Every year, under the Jinshi list, catching son-in-law under the major wealthy families becomes a lively event in the Hanjing. The top scholar takes the Jinshi and parade into a carnival in the capital, and even the business of the businessmen in the capital can rise a lot.
"I can't do new Jinshi, they are all fledgling boys. They don't have any experience. I guess Ling'er doesn't look down on them. If you want me, you still have to choose from the children of the nobles of the Xunqi. They have received a good education since childhood and are born with an advantage."
Moreover, as a child of a noble family, there will be a relatively powerful family behind him, which is of course beneficial to Ling'er.
"Or what if I arrange for the young heroes of Cui Zheng and Ling'er to meet and see which one she can like?"
The Cui family is Thirteen Niang's mother's home, and the Zheng family is her uncle's home. If the Cui and Zheng family are successful, it will be considered a more kinship.
"Yes, if Ling'er fails to choose, and then arrange for other families, I believe that there are so many children of Zhongyuan Xunqi, and there will always be suitable."
"Hey, Qingluan has not been easy for many years. I admire her very much. She raised her two children alone and raised them so well. And she has also built such a large territory."
"She admires you even more." Zhang Chao said with a smile when he thought of Qingluan saying Cui Yingying's grand words.
"What do you admire about me? I am far inferior to her except for the trivial matters in the housekeeper."
The matter of Zhang Chao's appointment as King of Xichang was obtained in the cabinet and passed it smoothly in the House of Representatives.
Everyone knows who Zhang Yan is.
Needless to introduce, Zhang Qiang, whose cheeks were red like a little leopard, stood on the stage of the noble house. No member of the congress below could tell that this was the emperor's son.
Looking at those eyebrows and eyes, it looks like that, the emperor's seed is the emperor's seed.
And the identity of others is indeed the case. Isn’t Queen Subi’s son, the emperor’s lover, the son of Subi, the son of Subi, the emperor’s lover? Who doesn’t know?
The emperor wanted to give his illegitimate son a prince and put him in the royal family genealogy, which was of course no problem. Moreover, the place where the emperor took it out to grant the prince was originally affiliated with Subi State, so there was no problem.
So, the emperor now has thirty-two princes. If the thirteenth prince was added to the murdered, it would be thirty-three.
This Zhang Qi, who is only ten years old this year, should be ranked eighteen in terms of age.
Because the 18th prince, King Xichang, was just ten years old, and although he was granted a title, he could not yet be a vassal state. Therefore, according to the system, the Xichang State was temporarily handed over to the court to take charge of the court, and the court selected prime ministers, generals, speakers and others in the past to preside over the state affairs.
In order to ensure the peace of Xichang State, the court decided to send an army there to protect it.
Does a newly established vassal state need 20,000 troops from the imperial court to enter and protect it?
Of course, it is not necessary for normal circumstances, but everyone understands that these 20,000 people were not drunk, but went to Tubo.
There is even a deeper intention, which is prepared for the next step to open up the channel to India.
Let these 20,000 people adapt to the climate and geography there first.
Zhang Chang was still very excited after leaving the parliament.
Zhang Chao personally took him, Ling'er, and Qingluan to visit Hanjing City.
Zhang Yan felt dazzled.
Buy, buy, shop, buy, buy.
Finally, I went to the martial arts lecture hall again.
The martial arts lecture hall is becoming increasingly large now, with several colleges, including non-commissioned officer academies and training schools for officers at all levels, and there are also many subjects.
This most advanced military academy in Dahua, even if it is a non-commissioned officer, is not a simple person. Only the best soldiers and non-commissioned officers can enter here for training and further study.
He can be called the king of soldiers of each army.
Generally, soldiers who need to be promoted to non-commissioned officers will go to other non-commissioned officer schools located below for several years to train. The same is true for those non-commissioned officers who are further trained. They cannot enter if they are not among the elites.
And the same is true for officer training classes at all levels.
A martial arts student can guarantee smooth promotion in the military this year.
You know, the principal of this imperial highest military academy was personally served by Emperor Zhang Chao.
When you enter the martial arts lecture hall, you can be called the disciple of the emperor. Like those Jinshi who passed the imperial examination and were all disciples of the emperor.
When they graduated from the martial arts lecture hall, they could also receive the long and short sword awarded by the emperor himself, which was extremely glorious.
"From the future, you will study here, starting from the preparatory course." Zhang Chao took Zhang Chang into the martial arts lecture hall. This school located in the northern suburbs is actually a military fortress. Those who enter the school are all active-duty soldiers. Here, they must absolutely obey the school's management.
"There are many noble children here, but they can come in not because they are noble children, nor because they rely on the reputation of their fathers and brothers and the glory of their families. They can come in because they passed the admissions exam or were recommended in the army, they are all elites."
"You made an exception and walked through the back door, but now you are only a preparatory student, not a formal martial arts school student. If you cannot pass the exam within one year, then even if you are the prince, you will be eliminated and cannot truly become a martial arts school student."
"Do you understand?"
Zhang Yan nodded. As soon as he came in, he felt that the military city had a unique charm attracting him. Every tree and every student and instructor here liked him so much.
"Very good. Once you come in, you have to get the sword and a diploma to leave. Don't lose your father's face and you can't lose the reputation of our royal family."
"Give you three days, and in three days, you will bring your luggage to report and officially start your military academy career."
He took Zhang Qiong to visit the teaching director and instructors of various subjects in the school. Zhang Chao asked Zhang Qiong to stay for a day first, feel the environment here, then left him and returned to the city with Qingluan Ling'er.
"I don't know if he can bear it anymore. The teaching here is quite strict and the training is difficult."
"This kid is very strong when he is young, so he will definitely do it." Qingluan was not worried about anything.
When he returned to the middle of the capital, Zhang Chao asked Pingyang Niang to join the three of them and return to the palace together.
In the palace, Cui Yingying greeted Pingyang and Qingluan with a smile. A group of women got along very well, and Li Lingyue, Zhang Ling'er and other princesses were also chatting happily.
Zhang Chao sat on the lounge chair and felt a little happy like a god.
There are three palaces and six courtyards, beautiful wives and concubines, and children in groups. How dare you imagine this in later generations? Even billionaires dare to have women outside, but they will have to make a divorce.
When the waiter and the third wife meet, how could it be as close as a sister? It has been a long time since we started to tear each other. We would not give up without catching a face.
Alas, although the imperial examinations in later generations have been developed, these excellent traditional cultural cores have been lost, which is really heartbreaking.
But these days.
The wife helps to take a concubine for her husband.
Cui Yingying is the queen and is still planning to show Zhang Chao.
There are three women in one play, and there are dozens of women here.
Looking at the beautiful and cute big princesses, Zhang Chao smiled with satisfaction.
Qingluan chatted for a while, then walked to the lounge chair next to Zhang Chao and sat down.
"Thank you."
"What do you thank me?"
Qingluan smiled slightly, but did not answer. What did you thank? Thank God for allowing her to meet him at that most beautiful and bravest age.
Thank him for accepting her.
This man sometimes looks very slow, but he always attracts her so much. When he was in Subi, he was often lonely. His mother and brothers also advised her that there was no need to guard Zhang Chao.
There is no need to be so wronged.
But now, sitting here, I feel that the grievance I had at the beginning seemed nothing.
"I decided not to go back. Let Su Bi leave it to Ling'er. You can choose a mature prime minister, a general and a speaker, and arrange more scholars and officials for him to go there. I am reluctant to leave in Zhongyuan and never want to leave again."
"Don't leave if you don't want to leave. Stay here. I'll accompany you and you will accompany me." Zhang Chao smiled and took her hand and held it in the palm of his hand.
It was so nice to chat like this, looking at Ling'er and Li Lingyue, Zhang Lihua and other sisters laughing and chatting.
"I feel like this Zhongyuan is a gentle place, and I don't want to leave as soon as I come. Every time I leave, I am reluctant to leave. This time, I really don't leave anymore, and I will die in the Central Plains in this life."
