    Although Miss Guo said this, she still arranged for the maids around her to go back and prepare what Qin Xuan needed. Of course, she also asked the cooks to prepare delicious meals. For Zhai Tanzhuan, Qin Xuan really regretted his persistence.  Round, he was like a martial artist who suddenly got a unique martial arts secret book and eagerly wanted to learn the kung fu in it. Qin Xuan's explanation opened a window for him.

    "You Xiaowei Wei Chaoyi, Pinglu Army Anqingzong, Shuofang Wang Shanlin comes on stage"

    "Jingyuan, the Hu man named An is on the stage. Let's go see how this guy's archery skills are," Zhai Tanzhuan said.

    "Is this An Qingzong the son of An Lushan?" Beauty Guo asked.

    "Yes, this kid had an argument with me in the martial arts temple. He promised to make me look good in the martial arts competition. I want to see what he is capable of," Qin Xuan asked with a smile.

    "Haha, this person surnamed An has a good tone. Don't worry, Jingyuan. I want to see what he can do to you," Princess Yuzhen said.

    "Jingyuan, isn't there a fight this year? If you meet him on the fight, throw him hard until his head is bloody, and he will be honest," Li Mei said.

    Their words made Zhai Tanzhuan feel guilty for a while. Through Qin Xuan's introduction, he found out that this princess was the youngest daughter of Prince Ning. People should not just look at the surface. If anyone underestimates Qin Xuan, a small official who can bully her at will, then  What a big mistake. Look at his princess wife, aunt of the eldest princess, and friend of the princess. Everyone looks up to them for their status, especially the eldest princess, who is a great god among great gods.

    Although Zhai Tanzhuan knew that Qin Xuan was good at throwing stones, he had never seen him on the horn. As for Feitian Princess saying that she should take good care of the boy surnamed An on the horn, it is really hard to say. The Hu man looks better than Qin Xuan.  He is strong and able to participate in martial arts, so he is not a simple person.

    No one knows how powerful Anqingzong is, but everyone except Zhai Tanzhuan knows about Qin Xuan's skills. At this time, there was a burst of cheers from the examination room, and Anqingzong's first arrow hit the inner circle.  , although it is not in the middle, it is much better than the other two candidates who both hit two circles.

    Archery is the same as other long-range attack weapons. The first arrow is usually a test shot. After finding the target and determining the general direction, you can make slight adjustments. If you can hit the target with the first arrow, that is your strength. But this  The horizontal shooting test tests accuracy and endurance. The difficulty comes later. Only with enough endurance can you reach the end.

    "Husband, give us Jiajing and Jiayue. It's windy outside. Stop blowing the baby. You should go back to your rest area. It's too conspicuous here. Many people are watching you holding the two children.  , it¡¯s a joke,¡± Yang Yuyan said.

    The examination room was very lively, but the two little guys were still sleeping in a daze, and Qin Xuan couldn't bear to wake them up. The three-month-old child didn't know what was going on, so he just came out to experience this.  It smells like the wilderness, but many people are talking and pointing at the two children who were holding the two children when they saw the talented man who threw stones just now.

    Helpless, Qin Xuan had no choice but to give the child to Sister Yan and the others, and returned to the rest area with Zhai Tanzhuan for a martial arts assessment. He was now considered a small celebrity, at least more famous than before. In the eyes of everyone watching, he was considered a celebrity.  A miraculous pitcher who always hits the target, at least a miraculous record, which left a profound impact on people, especially the examiners from the Ministry of War and some of the officials watching.

    "Jingyuan, your surname is Qin, how come you call the eldest princess aunt? Are you from the Dou family?" Zhai Tanzhan asked.

    "Ah, that's not true. I am not related to the eldest princess. Because I have a better relationship with the sixth prince, Prince Rong, I follow them to call the eldest princess aunt. As for the fact that I have no blood relationship with the Dou family," Qin Xuan smiled.  said.

    Princess Yuzhen and the current Holy Emperor Li Longji are brothers and sisters from the same father and mother. Their mother is Concubine Dou De. They were born into a family of officials. They are also a large family with a history of hundreds of years. The strength of the Dou family in Fufeng Pingling cannot be underestimated.  Empress Taimu of the Tang Dynasty Li Yuan, the Dou family, and prime ministers Dou Wei and Dou Kang all came from the Dou family. Li Longji's mother's ancestor was Dou Kang. This family can be traced back to the Han Dynasty. For hundreds of years,  There are many queens in such a big family. If he is related by blood to Princess Yuzhen, how can Qin Xuan be just a small fifth-grade official?

    "I see, I thought you were a relative of the eldest princess. But even if you are not a relative, you can call the eldest princess aunt. There is no need for you to participate in such a martial arts competition. Why don't the eldest princess just give you a good position when she comes forward?" Zhai Tan wrote  said.

    "How do I put this? Isn't it better to rely on one's own abilities? At least some people won't look down upon them. Didn't Brother Zhengu also rely on the merits of his ancestors and participate in martial arts by himself?" Qin Xuan smiled.  said.

    Although Qin XuanIn this way, the person who is overshadowed by the merits of his father's generation is usually the eldest son of the family, and Zhai Tanzhuan is the fourth son of Zhai Tan Sidda. Obviously, he cannot be overshadowed by his father's merits, but his family has always been the eldest son in the Tang Dynasty.  Those who engage in astronomy, Taishi Bureau is also the former Si Tiantai, which is a civil service department. Logically speaking, if he wants to be an official, he should take the civil service examination for scholars. However, this is much more difficult than the military examination. It may be that he takes part in the military examination.  You may want to take a curveball path to save the country.

    "I admire Brother Jingyuan. In fact, you can have connections. No matter how capable you are, it doesn't matter how you get the official position. Those people who are said to rely on connections to enter the officialdom are mostly without ability. Look at the current court officials.  , Not everyone takes the scientific examination, such people are in the minority. As for those who don¡¯t have any choice, they have no choice but to take the scientific examination. This is my example," Zhai Tanzhuan said helplessly.

    "Isn't Brother Zhengu's father very famous? And he is a third-grade eunuch, which is also a high-ranking official. Why do you have some friends in the court, but they can't help you?" Qin Xuan asked.

    "You don't know this. The Taishi Bureau, the Ordnance Supervisor, and the Imperial Medical Office all rely on craftsmanship to make a living. They are different from places like Shangshu Province, Menxia Province, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Household Affairs. Even if my father has friends, they are limited to the Taishi Bureau.  As for other powerful yamen, although they know each other, they don¡¯t have deep contacts. Who is willing to help with such a big matter? This is what officialdom is like.  "Jiu, you had such a good opportunity, but you didn't take advantage of it," Zhai Tanzhuan said.

    "Brother Zhengu, what do you think is the reason for entering the official career? To leave a name in history? To be rich and powerful? Or something else?" Qin Xuan asked.

    "Haha How should I put it? It's good to leave a name in history, but I don't have such extravagant hopes, and I'm not afraid of jokes when I say it. If I can enter an official career, my current status must be superior to others, whether it's scholars, peasants, industrialists, merchants, or soldiers.  They are lower than the officials, otherwise there is no such thing as standing out, and it is also a matter of honoring the ancestors. Most of them are probably here for this. As for benefiting the people or making the Tang Dynasty strong, these are mostly after entering the official career.  It is a question that I have just considered. After entering the official career, the glory and wealth are naturally indispensable. It is an honor to leave a name in the history, but the people who can leave a name in the history are only a very small number of people. The average person will not think about this.  "Zhai Tanzhuan said.

    What Zhai Tan said is very true and realistic. Before entering the official career, it is impossible for many people to consider what kind of officials they aspire to be. Such words are rarely seen in ancient Chinese history.  On the contrary, in Qin Xuan's previous life, it often appeared that someone had been determined to do something since he was a child, and he also did so later. In fact, most of these nonsense words were only spoken after the person was no longer alive.  There is no proof, and no one will pursue this. At this point, people in later generations are more hypocritical than the ancients.

    As for those so-called people who have determined to do something since childhood, there are many people who really realize their childhood ideals. They are similar to those who have left their names in history. They are rare. However, this imperial examination can be regarded as giving some ordinary people the opportunity to realize their ideals.  Although the opportunity was only open to scholars and farmers, it was still a good start. If the Tang Dynasty wanted to develop and grow stronger, it could only slowly eliminate the discriminatory disadvantages that craftsmen and businessmen were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination. They  But it is the main force for future development.

    "Actually, what Brother Zhengu said is right. All the hard work is actually just to get ahead. Many people take the imperial examination just for this and to honor their ancestors. It's a very simple idea. My participation in the martial arts examination is different from that of Brother Zhengu. It's just for the sake of getting ahead."  It¡¯s just to set an example for the children. Guangzong Yaozu never thought about getting ahead. In short, it doesn¡¯t matter for any purpose. Don¡¯t forget where we come from and where our roots are.¡± Qin Xuan said with a smile.

    In the current officialdom, it can be said that 70% of the people are descendants of major families. There are very few scholars and officials from poor families. But speaking of it, going back hundreds or thousands of years, those big families are also ordinary people.  It's just that the ancestors of Li Longji's mother's family were slaves of others at first. However, many people forget these things when they become famous. They feel that they are superior and do some bad things to oppress the people. There are not a few such people.

    No matter what others think, Qin Xuan has a good impression of this mixed-race man Zhai Tanzhuan. At the same time, he is a talent in astrology and divination. He is an indispensable person for the emperor in this era. In some special times, talents like them can play a big role.  There were many similar figures who were famous in the Tang Dynasty. Yuan Tiangang, Li Chunfeng, Sima Chengzhen, etc. were all ministers who were extremely favored by the emperor.

    "What Brother Jingyuan said is that people cannot forget their origins, just like the two sentences in Yu Zishan's "Zheng Tiao Qu": Those who implement the truth think of its trees, and those who drink its flow cherish their origins." Zhai Tan wrote.

    "The meaning of these two sentences is that when drinking water, remember the source, and when drinking water, remember the person who dug the well. But who is Yuzishan?"
