Feng Dao, who was called Changle Lao and was later called the tumbler of the political arena of the Five Dynasties, of course, Li Tianqu knew very well about this person's life and deeds. When he saw his name in his name, he immediately realized that it was true that Jie, Yan, Liu Shouguang was dead now, and Feng Dao's first official service could not be the cruel and arrogant king.

I also saw the famous book that Feng Dao's family background was originally in Changle, Jizhou. When Wei State conquered the Henghai Army, he had already followed Wang Chongshi and Liu Zhijun's army to Zibo to move south to Zibo to cultivate and farm. Li Tianqu suddenly realized that after all, he was in the imperial city, so he certainly would not know the movement and migration of talents among the people, and they still needed to take the initiative to emerge.

However, during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Feng Dao should be able to rank among the top ten... or the top five...

After all, the literati and doctors from several dynasties after the Song Dynasty almost all condemned Feng Dao one-sidedly, denounced him as shameless and especially as treacherous ministers. The key is that he should have served in the Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, and Later Zhou dynasties. Including the Yan King Liu Rengong, Liu Shouguang and his son, and Emperor Taizong of Liao Yelu Deguang, they served thirteen monarchs one after another, and most of them were external invasions. During the internal rebellion, the first lord was overthrown and turned to the originally hostile forces... Therefore, his reputation among the later scholars was too bad, and there was no reason.

However, Li Tianqu has no bad impression of Feng Dao. He even thought before that if one day he had the opportunity to recruit him, he would even have to cultivate himself well and entrust him with important tasks.

After all, the Song Dynasty, which ended the five dynasties, was not punished by officials. Even though they entered the court, they were involved in party struggles and political struggles with killing people without blood. But what era was the separatist period of the vassal state in the late Tang Dynasty? Zhu Wen massacred all the officials in the Tang court, and the local vassal states and vassal states were mostly cruel and unkind. If they were a civil servant, they would be too likely to be killed. Therefore, the universal values ​​of literati in the world are often very different.

After all, if the granaries are full, you know etiquette, and if you have enough food and clothing, you know honor and disgrace. Since the beginning of the Song Dynasty, the scholar-official class began to promote loyalty to the emperor, and there was nothing wrong with this. But if they were put in this era background, you could scold Zhu Wen for killing the emperor and causing chaos and rebellion in person; you could also be strong and unyielding after the monarch he served was destroyed and he would be honest and unyielding in order to fulfill his ministerial integrity, but he would only be knocked out with one knife and would not make any achievements.

However, although Feng Dao changed his family too frequently, he has been in politics for decades, and no matter which regime he serves, he is doing practical things for the country and the people.

Feng Dao changed his master, but he was definitely not a flatterer who sold his master for honor and flattery. If he was used by the tyrant Liu Shouguang, he would make a frank advice, and he was imprisoned and almost killed. When he became a minister, Li Siyuan, Feng Dao dared to tease Mingzong of Later Tang in person; when Zhou Shizong Chai Rong was at the peak of the limelight, he even made the No. wise monarch of the Five Dynasties very unhappy... But his words and deeds were all based on the position of his ministers and thought about the monarch he served at that time.

Another main reason for later generations to criticize Feng Dao was that he once served as Emperor Taizong of Liao, Yelu Deguang, who was a foreigner outside the Great Wall.

But the problem is that the thirteen monarchs that Feng Dao served in his life chose to vote for a new lord when he died of illness or his regime was destroyed, except for Yelu Deguang. Moreover, during his brief period in the Khitan, Feng Dao did not make any actions that were unfavorable to the Han people in the Central Plains. On the contrary, his seemingly flattering words, "When the Buddha comes out, he cannot save him, only the emperor can save him." While praising Yelu Deguang, he also made him unable to come to Taiwan, so as to prevent the people in the Central Plains from being harmed as much as possible.

No matter how much later generations looked down on Feng Dao, they could not deny that he was indeed a kind and gentleman in his personal morality. He was still a commoner who often helped the villagers who were unable to farm at night to farm. When he joined Jin, he gave them beautiful women to him, but he visited their family and sent them all back. He was the chief minister and was not arrogant, did not embezzle, did not engage in power, and did not fight against people and governments. Some people were jealous and hated, and they still treated them calmly. After four dynasties, they were all like this...

It can only be said that Feng Dao's moral concepts are different from those of the people who rule the world. He has his own unique concept of dealing with the world. It can be said that he has no moral integrity, but he actually benefits the people. Moreover, although Feng Dao has served many monarchs, he has not betrayed any of them. He only changes jobs and turns to an emerging regime after his power is about to disappear (except Yelu Deguang).

Li Tianqu said that I really don’t care about this, but the same thing is that if I don’t have the ability to maintain the regime I established, I would never ask them to die to do their duty.

As for the twenty-eighth people who passed the Jinshi this year, Li Tianqu thought that he would summon him personally as usual, so he could meet Feng Dao for a while.

It was not until the Jinshi who was examined by the palace examination that Li Tianqu, who was sitting upright in the head of the Bianjing Zichen Hall, saw that among the more than 20 candidates in front of him, such as Cao Song, Wang Xiyu, Liu Xiang, Ke Chong, and Zheng Xiyan, the five elders on the list were all white-haired and old, and they were trembling when they were moving... However, looking at their faces, they were also very happy. After all, they had been taking the exam for a lifetime, and their life goal was finally achieved in their old age. They were excited and couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Li Tianqu also quickly spoke without being polite, just sit down. After all, during the Han and Tang dynasties, the monarchs and ministers of the court were both sitting and discussing the rules, and they did not break the rules. It was also because the old man was so old that it was not easy to travel through mountains and rivers to come for the scientific examination. It was not easy to see him again and see him again, so don’t let his waist go away...

In addition to the five elders on the list, the candidates who have won the Jinshi this time generally seem to be not young. Including the top scorer and the top scorer (the official history is indeed the one who has entered the list, and his younger brother also won the top scorer four years later), he is mostly around 30 or 40 years old. There is also Chen Guangwen, who has won the Jinshi in the fourth place (the first Jinshi in Chaling, Zhuzhou), who is already 69 years old. If he was born one year earlier, the one who has won the palace examination in Xinyou year would be called the six elders on the list...

Because of this, the two young boys, Chun Yu Yan, a candidate from Dengzhou, and Feng Dao, who moved to Zibo, seemed a little conspicuous among the crowd.

Li Tianqu looked at Chunyu Yan as a test, but he was brave and heroic in his eyebrows. After all, according to historical records, Huo Yanwei was defeated and had no subordinates to help him. Only Chunyu Yan followed him with a sword to save Huo Yanwei from danger. He should be good at it.

After meeting the twenty-eight people who passed the palace examination, Li Tianqu must first say some words of comfort and encouragement. After about a moment, his eyes fell on Feng Dao, who was sitting on the outermost side, and said:

"Among the students who have passed the Jinshi level this year, you, Feng Dao, are the youngest. It seems that you are indeed talented and intelligent. I have also recorded your name, let's see if you can be a pillar of the country in the future."

Originally, he was able to be named on the list and was summoned by the Emperor who occupied the Central Plains. Even the older people who had seen a lot of worldly appearances in the hall would inevitably feel a little nervous. However, when Li Tianqu directly named him, Feng Dao looked calm and bowed to him without being humble or arrogant:

"When your Majesty praised, the people are afraid of being frightened. After all, they are not afraid to think that they are smart. After all, they are young and big may not be good... Even if the people are hired as officials and young, they still need to be cautious in their words and actions, perform their duties conscientiously, so as to live up to your Majesty's great kindness, and dare not think that they have the talent to govern the country."

Although Feng Dao said respectfully, Li Tianqu couldn't help but be happy when he heard it, and he secretly gave you a tumbler in the political arena. It turns out that at this age, he had a lot of ideas. To quote the allusion of the dialogue between Kong Rong and Chen Wei in the seventh son of Jian'an, "I'm young, but I may not be good." It sounds like a humble and low-key person, but if you think about the causes and consequences of this sentence, isn't it still a sensation that you are indeed a good person?
