Chapter 117 Civil Examination
.
Fang Yu returned home and took out the roll of paper that Guo Huai gave him. When he saw it, Fang Yu was a little stunned. Fang Yu could tell what was written on the paper at a glance. This was undoubtedly the question for this imperial examination. Fang Yu remembered the strange expression when Guo Huai sent him out. At this time, he didn't understand. It must have been done by Empress Dowager Liu or Zhao Zhen, otherwise, this dead eunuch would have done this for himself with such kindness.
Although Fang Yu's life experience made him feel proud, he was not a moral man, and he would not be so unpretentious in doing things. He immediately took the question and found Zhao Xuan and asked her to give her an answer for herself. As for Liu Yong, Fang Yu did not dare to tell him this. It was not that Fang Yu was unfaithful, but that this kind of thing must be the hands of Empress Dowager Liu or Zhao Zhen. Since others are so good to him, he must also think about their reputation. Of course, Liu Yong is a crazy person in history. This crazy person has never been reliable, and Fang Yu dared not do anything else.
If you say that Zhao Xuan is really a smart and talented woman, she did all the questions of the scriptures, Mo Yi, and the strategy theory. Fang Yu read it and felt that his little wife was really the top female lead. What Fang Yu had to do later was to memorize these things. This was naturally difficult for Fang Yu. If you say that Fang Yu had never done any cheating in his previous life, this was his first time cheating in the exam. Fang Yu should have felt ashamed, but Fang Yu didn't really want to take this kind of scientific exam, but for the future of his brothers, he had to bite the bullet and take the exam. Now that he suddenly had such a relaxed thing, Fang Yu was not ashamed, but he was a little happy in his heart, just like all those who didn't want to study. He hoped that there would be an easy way to handle the exam.
Fang Yudi's little wife Zhao Xuan is a good girl. When she realized that Fang Yu was cheating, she was very ashamed of Fang Yu for a while, but this shame was far inferior to her love for Fang Yu, so she refused and tried her best to cheat for Fang Yu. She just wanted to get the top scorer in the article for Fang Yu.
Another science exam is poetry and essays. Fang Yu doesn't need Zhao Xuan's help. Fang Yu remembers many good poems and lyrics. He just picked up one of them to be a masterpiece. What Fang Yu has to do now is to wait for the exam to start and no longer have to read the Four Books and Five Classics that make him big, Fang Yu's mood also felt better. With more time to hug Zhao Xuan in his arms and see how she reads, but in this way, Zhao Xuan couldn't read the book. If any woman could still read the book when a man touched his big hands on his body, that would be a miracle.
The exam days came soon. Fang Yu and Liu Yong bid farewell to the Fang family and went to the examination room. At this time, it seemed that Fang Yu would not be able to do it if he didn't go to the exam. Early in the morning, Zhao Zhen and Empress Dowager Liu sent a team of thousands of imperial guards to the Fang family to take Fang Yu to the examination room. This style made Fang Yu a little amused. It was okay for Zhao Zhen to like to make trouble, but he didn't expect that Empress Dowager Liu would also accompany Zhao Zhen to make trouble. Knowing that the local people understood that they were caring about Fang Yu, but they didn't know that they thought that Fang Yu was going to be taken to the execution ground. Isn't it just an exam? What should I do if I made such a big show and scared those poor candidates?

As seen in TV movies before, the thousand imperial guards who came with Fang Yu put martial law into the entire examination room. Except for Fang Yu and Liu Yong, who was exposed to Fang Yu, the others were all put into the examination room after the examination. I don’t know whether the soldiers checked the examination this time, or whether these students were very conscious. In short, this year, no one was found to be cheating. The candidates each entered their seats and waited for the examiner to issue the test questions. Because Fang Yu was recommended by Yan Shu, Yan Shu did not become the examiner in order to avoid suspicion, but another bachelor in the Hanlin Academy came to take the examination.
The first great classics and the second and the classics were all questions on Guo Huai's scroll of paper. Fang Yu naturally responded easily. The whole exam was two days and he couldn't go out in the middle. Fang Yu ate well here and slept soundly. The last one was poetry and essays, and the requirements were very relaxed. Whether it was poetry or lyrics, the genre or content was not limited, everything could be played freely. I think this was specially arranged for Fang Yu so that Fang Yu could have a free space to play. If this was really nothing, Fang Yu wrote Su Shi's poem "Shui Tu Song":
When will the bright moon come? I asked the blue sky with wine...
After Fang Yu stole Su Shi's masterpiece, he was still a little proud. He thought to finish some of the great writer's good works. Maybe he would force this great writer to rack his brains to contribute a few more good works to this world. Unfortunately, he was afraid he couldn't see it anymore, unless he could live to be ninety or one hundred years old.
The examiner and Yan Zhu were also friends, so they naturally knew Fang Yu's so-called accomplishments in lyrics. After Fang Yu handed over the paper, he didn't say anything and took a look first. After reading this song "Shuitu Songtou", he couldn't help but praise him and even praised him. The examiner also knew a little bit that Fang Yu had a good relationship with the current emperor and Empress Dowager Liu. He originally thought that Fang Yu was a villain who was good at flattering. He only got it after pleased the emperor and the empress dowager.
At this time, when I read this poem, I felt a little jealous and sour in my heart. It was really worth sighing that Fang Yu was able to be appreciated by the emperor and the queen mother. The examiner was also a talented person. I felt that with this poem, Fang Yu's talent could catch up with the poet Li Bai.
Fang Yu, who finished the exam, naturally didn't know that this poem made others sigh like this. After leaving the exam room, he returned to his home with Huya, who was waiting outside the exam room. Liu Yong, who left the exam room later, was also full of joy this time. You must know that this person was also famous for his good lyrics. His unrestricted performance naturally hit his heart. He wrote a poem "Yu Linling". After this, he became more and more proud of himself. He thought that this poem would be the first in this poem. When he walked out of the exam room, he also felt proud.

That night, Fang Yu comforted Zhao Xuan, who had made great contributions to this exam, but did not say anything. On the second day, Fang Yu entered the palace as usual, first talked about the process of this scientific investigation with Zhao Zhen. Then he talked about the other world version of the Opium War. Zhao Zhen also told Fang Yu that he had sent someone to collect poppy seeds. When the two discussed the planting of the place, Fang Yu didn't think about it, and took the map and clicked heavily in the Annan area. He said: "If you want to say that the place that is most suitable for poppy cultivation is this big piece, although it is far from us.
It's a little far away, but it has several benefits. First, it's near the sea and transporting places from the sea is very convenient. Second, if my generals of the Song Dynasty are stationed here, we can strengthen our control over it. In addition, turning this place into a poppy garden to form a single economy, and people here will have to rely on our Song Dynasty economically. Third, the climate here is also very suitable for growing poppy. The last point is that it is far away from the center of our Song Dynasty and is remote. As long as we do our confidentiality work well, it will be difficult for others to find the source of the goods."

"Well, what my brother said must be because my brother has thought about it carefully. Since that's the case, I think it's up to what my brother said. Just send someone to lead the troops here, can I have a good candidate for the land?" Zhao Zhen nodded in agreement, but Zhao Zhen was a little hesitant about who led the troops to garrison. For a long time, the emperor of the Zhao family was educated since childhood and did not really have the right to command the army. Now that a person is allowed to lead the troops to such a place, if this person is rebellious, it is easy to become a country in that place. Although Zhao Zhen was not old, he still had more considerations in this regard.
Fang Yu thought about it and there were no good candidates in the court. Moreover, for people at that time, being sent to that kind of place was a punishment for demotion. No one wanted to go to a place where birds could not shit. For modern people, there were no people and the deep forests and big trees were an original tourist area. But for people in the Song Dynasty, it was a place where savages lived, and it was a barbaric area that was not virtuous and might have died if they went there. Fang Yu couldn't come, so he had to say, "If there were really no people, I would have two students in my family, one was named Liu Yong, the other was Bai Zhengchun, and the other was Yang Zhi of the Yang family. If these three people went there, there should be no big problem."
Zhao Zhen nodded. He still trusted Fang Yu very much. Although Fang Yu recommended all his own people, he believed that Fang Yu was not cultivating power for him. Zhao Zhen was still young and had not felt the importance of power. Fang Yu felt that he didn't care much about power, so Zhao Zhen readily agreed to Fang Yu's proposal and said, "Then let's do as my elder brother wants. When will he bring those three people? I'll see them."
"Well, although this place is not a good place now, it is along the sea. In the future, it is a good place, which is conducive to sea commodity trading. Of course, it is too early to say this, so take it slowly." When Fang Yu said this, he thought about how to use this place as a springboard to carry out colonial activities. If the Song Dynasty had enough colonies, even if the Yuan people rose in the future, they were a nation on the back of horses and their tentacles could not be extended to the sea. Maybe this would be able to preserve the advanced inheritance of Chinese civilization.
Zhao Zhen also yearns for some overseas things that Fang Yu said. There is one advantage of young people, that is, they are curious, easy to accept new things, and easy to be guided by others, and move towards the direction he is interested in. Fang Yu also talked about some overseas things with Zhao Zhen, from different races to different customs, and from different species to different products in various places. In Fang Yu's heart, these things are naturally very common things, but in Zhao Zhen's ears, these are rare things. In addition to wanting to catch a few blonde beauties in his heart to see, he also wants to make a few black girls to touch them to see if it is really like Fang Yu said, women with black carbon also have something to make people happy.
Fang Yu stayed in Zhao Zhen's Funing Palace for a long time. It was not until Guo Qian came to urge him that Zhao Zhen reluctantly let Fang Yu leave. Then, Fang Yu and Guo Huai came to Empress Dowager Liu's palace with him. It was common for him to come here. All the eunuchs and palace maids knew him and did not need to be informed. They were directly taken into the hall by Guo Huai. At this time, Empress Dowager Liu seemed a little impatient. When she saw Fang Yu coming, she did not show the same smile as before. It was obvious that she was giving birth to someone.
In the sense of marriage, men who have never been married are different from men who have never been married, or, to be more precise, men who have never been sleeping with women are far inferior to those who have already tasted the taste of women. Fang Yu may not have understood why Empress Dowager Liu was angry, but Fang Yu has now learned to understand his own teachings and understands some of the women's thoughts. Perhaps, this so-called teacherless teaching may be a kind of original ability of human beings. Anyway, there have been two women.
Fang Yu, at this time, it was obvious from Empress Dowager Liu's expression that she was angry with herself, just like a couple who had just quarreled for a few words. This expression revealed too much about Empress Dowager Liu's feelings with Fang Yu. When people face love, even very smart and calm people will sometimes be influenced by their own emotions. Empress Dowager Liu has not seen Fang Yu for many days. She originally thought she would see Fang Yu soon today, but Fang Yu was reluctant to come, which made Empress Dowager Liu feel more or less resentful.
"Tell me, you are instigating Zhen'er to do something bad." Although the question asked by Empress Dowager Liu was in a state of mind, her voice was still very gentle, just like an ordinary lover. Although she looked angry when she quarreled, she still cared about her lover very much.
Although Fang Yu and Empress Dowager Liu are not lovers, even eunuchs like Guo Huai can see how deep the ambiguous relationship there is between Empress Dowager Liu and Fang Yu. Sometimes, when this ambiguous relationship is suppressed, it will become like volcanic magma, hot and hot, and deeper than ordinary lovers. In Guo Huai's heart, Fang Yu and Empress Dowager Liu are what the world calls adulterers and erotic women. As for Empress Dowager Liu's goodness to Fang Yu, Guo Huai absolutely believes in his judgment. Sooner or later, these two people will hug on the same bed. Guo Huai has naturally put the label of this adulterers and erotic women on their hearts.
The beautiful woman with a charming charm is so angry that Fang Yu, who has just understood the charm, is not willing to ignore the scenery. He now told Empress Dowager Liu about what he discussed with Zhao Zhen. Fang Yu, who has understood some women's thoughts, naturally would not mention how women overseas are when telling Queen Liu about overseas experiences, but talks about how much gold there is in a certain place, how much silver there is, how beautiful the diamond is, and how beautiful the gems are. Queen Liu didn't hear it yet. Guo Huai, who was beside him, almost drooled all over the ground, and wanted to immediately hope that Queen Liu would issue an order to send troops to those places and snatch back the gold, silver and treasures.
"Young Master Fang, what you said is true. Are there really what you said in those places?" Guo Huai couldn't help asking.
"These are naturally true. Thinking about the American land, the title of the Golden Empire was not for nothing. The amount of gold there is unimaginable. Any ordinary citizen can take out hundreds of taels of gold at will, and the army there is vulnerable. As long as we have strong ships and cannons, the gold there will be ours." Fang Yu smiled slightly and said with some temptation. He also knew Guo Huai's character very well. This man had no other hobbies in his life, so he liked things like gold.
Guo Huai smacked his mouth a few times, feeling that his saliva was dry, and his eyes were full of golden fantasies. Fang Yu looked at Empress Dowager Liu, and saw Empress Dowager Liu looking at him with a smile and said, "Fang Yu, do you really want to conquer these places?"
Isn't this nonsense? Fang Yu thought to himself that if the Song Dynasty could turn all those places into colonies, he would be afraid of the Jin people or Yuan people. With strong naval power, no matter how bad the Song Dynasty was, President Ma could not run into the sea to chase the Han people. Although Fang Yu disagreed with Empress Dowager Liu's question, he still replied: "The cunning rabbit has three caves, and there are more places like that, which also makes the people of the Song Dynasty more places to settle down. It's just that this kind of thing cannot be accomplished by one generation or two generations. It also needs to be established as a national policy and implemented for a long time."
Empress Dowager Liu nodded and said, "This is almost the same. I thought you were confused about the gold, silver and treasures. You should know that collecting a place is not done by saying it. This is a long-term process. Fang Yu, as for whether this matter should be done, I won't discuss it for now. How did you do this test this time?"
Fang Yu believed that Empress Dowager Liu would definitely know about Guo Huai’s test questions, otherwise Guo Huai would not do this. When she saw Empress Dowager Liu ask, Fang Yu could only answer one sentence and said, “There should be no problem.”
"Well, that's great. You haven't told the story today yet. Let's start now." Empress Dowager Liu smiled, as if the country's fragrant peonies were blooming, and Fang Yu was stunned.
Fang Yu lowered his eyebrows. He didn't see Empress Dowager Liu's expression when he saw him. A look of pride appeared in his eyes. Fang Yu thought for a moment and began to tell a story.
Everyone was listening to Fang Yu's speech quietly. In the Fang family compound, Liu Yong was also proudly talking about the poem in his test question. At this time, a man laughed and stood up.
