The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 570 His Royal Highness Calls
With the sun hanging high and the wind blowing, the majestic and huge Prince Regent's Mansion appeared in front of the 98 Xinke Scholars like a giant beast.

The guards at the main entrance of the palace were dressed in short gray military uniforms, tall and straight, with solemn expressions, which added a bit of chill to the majestic palace.

The opening of the main gate of the palace means respect and welcome to the 98 new scholars, and it also means an acceptance.

At the front of the queue of Xinke Jinshi, there are the chief ministers of the cabinet, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, the Minister of Lifan and the ministers of Lifan, all of whom looked solemnly at the open gate of the palace.

Standing in the first row behind the bosses, the emaciated first-class Jinshi Liu Yong looked at the palace in front of him with excitement, his heart was surging, and his thoughts were full of thoughts.

He has participated in three scientific examinations, and the first two all ended with Sun Shan.This hit him deeply, who was always proud of having a beautiful world in his chest and full of talent and learning.

This time, there was the matter of traveling around the world later.

He was full of resentment and had nowhere to vent his anger after failing the exam twice. He didn't know who to hate and who to blame. After much deliberation, he could only blame himself for his bad luck.

In the end, I can only talk about the mountains and rivers for comfort.

But later, he slowly figured out the reason: what he learned in his heart was not what the conservative and pedantic examiners in the imperial court wanted.

What they want to read is still the step-by-step stereotyped essay, and what they want to listen to is the old, backward and unchanging words of the sage.

In the eyes of these people, what I think is deviant, that's why I failed the ranking twice.

After thinking about this point, he was even more depressed. Could it be that what he had learned all his life would be overwhelmed by this decadent world?

This frustration made him more and more painful, and only then did the things that happened when he went out to travel.

If it wasn't for a mistake, God bless him, he would have become a pile of unclaimed bones outside the pass by now.

Later, I was desperate for a while, thinking that this life was hopeless, and I was doomed to be miserable all my life.

But later, with Qin Wang Jiangchuan leading troops into the pass, the general situation of the world changed dramatically in a short period of time.

Li Zicheng fought several battles and was defeated in a row. He fled back to Shanzhou in a panic.The King of Qin entered Beijing to cleanse the spies of the Dashun Army, such as Duke Wei Liu Lin, and forced the Emperor to lock himself in the palace and seize the power of the court.

Later, there were a series of innovations, each of which can be said to be shocking and extraordinary.

The situation was turbulent and changing, and many people panicked. Some people scolded King Qin for being domineering, having no way of being a minister, and being a treacherous minister who harmed the country.

Some people joined forces secretly, spread rumors everywhere, spread rumors and slanders, and poured all kinds of dirty water on King Qin's head, which caused turmoil among the people and undercurrents surged in the capital.

Regarding all these changes, Liu Yong was as shocked as everyone else at the beginning.But then he was more and more surprised.

He keenly discovered that His Royal Highness King Qin's behavior was really eclectic, without the pedantic and conservative habits of the current imperial court.

Not to mention anything else, the establishment of a new army, the issuance of banknotes, the dismissal of maids and eunuchs, the establishment of cleaning in the capital, and the vigorous improvement of environmental sanitation are enough to prove the bold and unique style of His Royal Highness Qin Wang.

This made Liu Yong, who was already depressed and desperate, see the hope of his new life.

Just when he was worrying about how to recommend himself to the King of Qin, the imperial court issued the announcement of Kai Enke, which made the road ahead of him suddenly clear.

More importantly, the method and content of Enke's selection of scholars this time are completely different from those of the previous imperial examinations. The old-fashioned and useless stereotyped essays are completely abandoned, and the words of sages are not tested, but only policy theory, practice and physical fitness.

This is completely a subversive move beyond the times. When a large number of candidates are crying and complaining, it makes candidates like Liu Yong who really have rough hearts in their hearts overjoyed.

Reasonably, but unexpectedly, he passed the exam.And he's a first-class Jinshi.

This made him so excited that he didn't sleep well for several days, his heart was full of longing for the future, and he was grateful to His Royal Highness the Regent.

Without His Royal Highness's reform, I, Liu Yong, would not be able to rise to the top today.

If it weren't for the humiliation he received yesterday when he bought clothes for his little sister, his mood could be said to have been floating in the clouds these days.

If it wasn't for that Mr. She's generosity to help and comfort, maybe I would really get entangled and conflicted with that shallow and vulgar shop assistant in a moment of confusion yesterday.

If that is the case, it is very likely that it will affect today's meeting with the Regent.

If he loses his dignity in front of the palace, the life he had just hoped for may really stop there.

Looking at the new robe on his body, Liu Yong was full of gratitude to that Mr. She who met by chance.

With the help of Mr. She, I can afford to buy a new set of robes, to pay for the inn's room fee, and to buy two sets of the most popular winter clothes in the capital for my younger sister.

Although the nobleman did not want to tell where his family lived, Liu Yong made up his mind to find his benefactor, personally visit the door to thank him, and repay the benefactor's kindness.

When Liu Yong's thoughts were racing, a voice came from the front and woke him up.

"My lords, all the new scholars, your Highness calls." A general in gray military uniform stood on the steps of the palace gate, with a solemn expression, and shouted loudly.

All the Xinke Scholars immediately became solemn, and followed a few big shots up the steps and entered the gate of the palace.

Under the guidance of the young general, everyone passed through the courtyard, climbed up the stairs, and entered the spacious and spacious political hall.

After entering the main hall, everyone stood up according to the ranking outside the gate just now, without saying a word.

"Everyone, please wait a moment, His Highness will be here soon." The young general declared and walked into the side door of the hall.

The hall was solemn and solemn, and everyone lowered their heads. No one dared to whisper to each other, for fear of leaving a bad impression on the regent for the first time and affecting his future, it would be too uneconomical.

The same is true for Liu Yong, but his mood at this time is surging and fluctuating.

In his heart, he has already regarded the regent as a mountain worthy of admiration and emulation.

It can be said that he is now a loyal supporter of the Prince Regent, and he is still a fan of brains.

I don't know what kind of person the regent is. I'm really curious how such a hero who subverts the world and stirs up the wind and clouds can be born in today's world?

Just when Liu Yong was thinking wildly, the voice of the young general just now sounded again.

"His Royal Highness the Regent is here!"

"Your Majesty is waiting for you to kowtow, Your Highness will be a thousand years old!"

The bigwigs in front fell to the ground and shouted Chitose.The Xinke Scholars behind also hurriedly knelt down and worshiped together.

Although I had rehearsed before, the voice was still not very neat due to excitement and nervousness, and it seemed a bit chaotic.

"Pingshen." A young but majestic voice came from above.

Why does this voice sound familiar?Liu Yong pondered in doubt while following the big shots in front of him.

When he stood up straight and looked up the steps between the shoulders of the two ministers in front, he was stunned.
