Chapter 204
"Ah!" Fang Ru opened her mouth wide, looking shocked.
In his heart, he contradicted the emperor and had no chance to enter the palace and participate in the regime. He originally planned to wait for the day of the announcement to confirm how far he was stepped on, so he would directly leave Xianyang City with his family.
A distant relative under Liu Bang of Pei Gong had already heard news that Pei Gong was eager to be talented now, and if he came, he would definitely be taken seriously.
Fang Ru was already moved. Now I heard that he was at the top of the high school list, and I felt so surprised.
He couldn't believe his ears, but when he saw the Confucian scholars who came to report the good news, they all had sincere respect on their faces, which was not fake.
"Where is the latest list?" Fang Ru quickly got up. Because she was so anxious, her robe sleeves rolled over the wine glass and fell directly to the ground, turning into pieces.
The waiter wanted to stop him, but several Confucian scholars next to Fang Ru immediately took out the money and threw it on the table, blocking the waiter back.
Someone led Fang Ru to the recent list.
Before that list, there were dense crowds of people.
Everyone was giving guidance, and Fang Ru and Fang Wei's names were constantly being mentioned.
Some sharp-eyed people saw Fang Ru staggeringly coming when they saw the hurrying Fang Ru staggeringly and immediately made way out.
"The top of the list is here, this is Fang Ru."
"I heard that Fang Ru had contradicted the current emperor outside the Taixue Pavilion just before the exam. I didn't expect that this time I could be the top of the high school list. It was really not easy."
"Bah, I don't like to hear you say this. What is not easy? It's because the emperor is kind and generous. In my opinion, the emperor is really a good emperor. What he did in the past must be the deception of Zhao Gao."
Because of Fang Ru's arrival, everyone was talking about it for a while.
Fang Ru staggered to the list, but did not see the others clearly, only seeing the golden list, the name of "Fang Ru" was specially written to be one of the top numbers, ranking first.
"Really! It's really me!" Fang Ru looked at the list, her eyes blurred with tears.
Originally, he planned to leave Xianyang wholeheartedly after seeing that he failed the exam and defected to Liu Bang, Peigong.
But I didn't expect that the ups and downs of life came too quickly, which made Fang Ru, a slightly pedantic Confucian scholar, a little overwhelmed.
"Hey, why did Fang Ru cry just now?"
"The top of the high school list should be happy, is this for that?"
"Mr. Fang was so happy that he burst into tears. You guys know nothing."
Amid the discussions of the crowd, Fang Ru's ordinary doctor knelt before the list, kowtowed deeply and heavily, and he said sadly: "Emperor, Fang Ru is sorry for the emperor's kindness. From now on, Fang Ru is so loyal to the Qin Dynasty."
As he cried, more people gathered around him. Even Fang Wei, who was also watching the list, showed compassion on his face when he saw Fang Ru's condition.
This is the first large-scale scientific investigation in the Qin Dynasty and even in history.
The exam list caused a sensation in the entire Xianyang. Soon, the story of Qin Ershi Hu Hai and Fang Ru was rumored to the point of being ignorant.
During this period, Fang Ru contradicted and insulted the second emperor and was so pedantic, but in the exam, he gained the attention of Emperor Qin II by relying on his own talent and knowledge. How to reach the sky in one step is a bit wise and eye-catching.
Those who heard this story not only lamented Fang Ru's knowledgeable and talented, and had a new understanding of Qin II's mind. The whole Qin Dynasty's goodness was sang.
The palace examination went very smoothly, and Hu Hai successfully selected some talents.
It is now a period of war, and many literati did not help the war much.
But Hu Hai had great ambitions and had already predicted what happened once the country was unified.
The so-called martial arts fight the world and the civilized temple. In the future, we still need civilized governance.
The so-called civil and military achievements cannot be missed.
There were many bachelors and talented people absorbed in a scientific examination. Hu Hai thought of a good idea to first win over these people.
Literary people are very simple, without much ambition. As long as they fill their stomachs and satisfy their vanity, they can be able to do some serious things, and that is the best destination.
After the big exam, Hu Hai immediately summoned Fu Wan.
This old man is very powerful and has certain ideas to hide all the classics of Qin Shihuang when he was burning books and burying scholars. Just this kind of spirit is an amazing master.
Hu Hai directly assigned the talents recruited by this imperial examination, plus a group of Confucian scholars from the Taixueguan, to Fuwan's management.
The order he gave Fu Wan was that no matter when the national war broke out, you Confucian scholars who were powerless would just do your research and record all the classics of the previous era and make sure to preserve all the theories intact.
Hu Hai even gave them a big order, that is, once the Qin Dynasty really perished in the disputes between various princes, these scholars must preserve the classics of various schools and leave these classic documents to future generations.
Hu Hai's order immediately made the literati, led by Yifuwan, burst into tears. They immediately entered the state, and no one wanted the Qin Dynasty to perish.
Because Qin II's attitude towards literati was in a huge contrast with Qin Shihuang.
Some people from various schools who had originally lived in seclusion entered the gate of Xianyang after hearing the news. For a moment, they felt like the world's articles came out of Xianyang.
While the vassal kings in front kept rising, the literary momentum in the heart of the Qin Dynasty was unprecedented.
Fang Ru was assigned to Meng Yi by Hu Hai.
Although Fang Ru is a bit pedantic, after a scientific investigation, it has changed a lot. Meng Yi was originally a generous person. Working with a scholar like Fang Ru with a delicate mind is simply icing on the cake. Everything is done without any leakage and is seamless.
Under the scheduling and calculation of Meng Yi and Fang Ru, spring is here.
The explosion of water levels in the Huai River, Wei River, and even the Yellow River did not cause any greater disasters than in previous years, and everything was under control.
During the war years, with the efforts of a group of monarchs and ministers led by Qin II in Xianyang City, this spring, the farmers in the hinterland of Daqin began to sow spring plowing normally.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
In front, the army led by Wang Ben was stationed steadily in the Sanchuan Army, guarding all the fortresses, including Tongguan, without attacking or retreating. Like iron chains, locking the territory of the Qin Dynasty at the junction of Qin and Zhao.
On the other hand, Zhang Han was also persistent and steadily defended the front line where he was stationed. Although he retreated under the impact of the Western Chu army, the losses were not heavy and the troops did not retreat much.
During this stalemate, the overlord of Western Chu, Xiang Yu and Shufu Xiang Liang, discussed and directly held a Pengcheng Conference in the name of the King of Chu in their hometown Pengcheng.
The descendants of the six countries who fled back from Xianyang set off from their ancestral lands, responding to Xiang's call to attend the Pengcheng Conference.
Liu Bang was originally disdainful of such a conference, but his strength was not as good as Xiang Yu for the time being, so he had to bite the bullet and rush to Pengcheng.
